The Ace Bodyguard

After selecting the ingredients needed to concoct the Advanced Pellet, Wang Xiao moved the ingredients and the furnace to the innermost room. However, he felt that it was not safe, because when refining the Pill, the scent of the medicinal ingredients in the market would definitely be very obvious.    

    

The people from the Divine Monarch Sect all knew that Wang Xiao was proficient in Chinese medicine and could even save a life. As long as he told everyone that he was developing some medicine, the people from the sect would definitely believe him. Regarding the matter of refining the Pill, Wang Xiao did not want others to know, so he had to keep it a secret.    

    

The more people who knew, the more dangerous it would be to him, and many sects needed alchemists, because whether it was those super sects or small sects, they all needed a large number of Pill s, which allowed their sect's more members to obtain sufficient cultivation resources, and become stronger experts.    

    

However, the number of alchemists were extremely few, extremely rare. If those people from those sects knew that he could refine Pill s, their enemies would be even more, because those people who had ill intentions would definitely want to capture him. As long as they caught him, their sect would have an alchemist.    

    

Although Wang Xiao's strength was not bad, in front of some Top Level experts, he was still very weak. For example, in front of those Golden Core Stage experts, his strength was not even worth a single blow.    

    

Wang Xiao did not want to die in a cage. After he was captured, he would spend all his time refining Pill s for those super sects. This was because this life was better than death.    

    

He originally wanted to directly refine the Advanced Pellet, but after Wang Xiao thought about it carefully, he decided to first experiment on refining the Pill from the lowest and cheapest medicinal ingredients. These medicinal ingredients could not actually refine the Pill, but after being able to successfully refine it, it would seem to be exactly the same as the real Pill, although it did not have the same effect as the Pill.    

    

Even if he failed, his loss would be very small, and at most he would lose a few hundred yuan. It was merely a few hundred yuan, it wouldn't matter if he failed a few dozen times, if he used those expensive medicinal herbs to refine the Pill, even if he failed once, it would definitely pinch Wang Xiao's heart.    

    

He was too smart to come up with such a good idea. Wang Xiao set aside those medicinal ingredients he had prepared beforehand, then took out all of the worst, those medicinal ingredients that were impossible to refine into Pill, and placed them into the Pill Refining Furnace one by one.    

    

Wang Xiao is extremely nervous, after all this is his first time, how can he not be nervous, if not for the pressure, he wouldn't need to be nervous, even if he fails, it's not a big deal, since he has enough time, it's ten times if it doesn't work, or even a hundred times if it doesn't work, I don't believe that it will never work, but he doesn't have the time, time and time again, to accept defeat.    

    

Wang Xiao followed the instructions on the Divine Monarch's Alchemy Scripture and started to carefully refine Pill s. The furnace rose into the air and appeared above Wang Xiao's hands, and on his hands, blazing flames appeared. These were the flames emitted by the blazing Genuine Qi in his body.    

    

If one did not have a fire attribute Genuine Qi, it would be impossible to refine a Pill, unless it was made using an earth method. According to some historical records, there were also times where a few famous pill refiners would use firewood to refine a Pill.    

    

Preparing a huge furnace, building a furnace, and then finding a few disciples to continuously clap fire were not only very troublesome, but the amount of Pill that were refined was also very poor and had a lot of impurities. If it was too big, the medicine would get burnt, but not too small. If the fire was too small, the Pill would not be able to take shape.    

    

Using firewood was impossible to maintain the same temperature, but the alchemists thought of one method, mercury. As long as a certain amount of mercury was added, the Pill would take form.    

    

It was just that because these Pill were made from mercury, they had a slight poison and could be used for short periods of time. They would not pose a threat to one's life, but if used for long periods of time, their life would definitely be in danger. In history, many Yellow Emperors died from poison because they consumed Pill with mercury, and the most famous one was the First Emperor Qin.    

    

Qin Shi Huang yearned for immortality, so he sent Xu Fu to the sea several times to search for immortals, to search for the immortal Pill, but Xu Fu left, and Qin Shi Huang gradually aged.    

    

The impatient Qin Shi Huang asked the people who were experts at refining Immortal Pill. In fact, during the era of Qin Shi Huang, there were many people who were able to refine Pill s, and there were even many experts who were able to refine pellets such as the Advanced Pellet, Bone Ablutionary Pellet, and so on. There were definitely many who were able to refine these Pill. Therefore, those who could truly refine Pill would naturally not go. Instead, those who took the risk, who wanted to seek a temporary life of wealth went along with them.    

    

It was because of this that Qin Shi Huang died in the end in the Pill that had mercury. No matter what era it was in, there would always be countless experts. Logically speaking, since there was a talent coming out from the rivers and mountains, the Yellow Emperor and his descendants would not die under the Pill with mercury.    

    

However, if one looked carefully, it was not hard to find some clues. The ancient Yellow Emperor only wanted two types of Pill, and the Pill they needed did not advance in strength, nor was it a type of Pill like the detoxification process. They were either an immortal Pill, or an unstoppable Pill.    

    

Therefore, some famous people took the risk to refine the Immortal Pill, causing the death of the Yellow Emperor. There were some that were unstoppable, but these kind of Pill were very harmful.    

    

It was said that during the Song Dynasty, a Yellow Emperor was addicted to debauchery, but his health was poor and he was easily dealt with. Looking at the many concubines and palace maids in the imperial harem, he was not satisfied and got someone to refine that kind of Pill.    

    

Thus, an alchemist appeared. This alchemist was indeed capable, and ever since the Emperor ate his Pill, he could always last for more than an hour.    

    

Thus, the alchemist had no choice but to refine a type of super strong Pill. The emperor ate three of them at a time, and when he had that kind of relationship with a dozen or so of his concubines, he would be able to be extremely fierce for seven to eight hours, causing the dozen or so concubines to suffer unspeakably. However, due to seven to eight consecutive hours, the Emperor's lower body had been congested for too long. In the end, all of his men died.    

    

Therefore, the reason many Yellow Emperor died in the Pill in the ancient times was not because of the lack of alchemists in Huaxia, but because of the problems of the emperors themselves.    

    

Everyone has their own day to live and everyone, including those newborn babies, will die as time passes. Even an expert like Wang Xiao would die from old age due to sickness or sickness.    

    

Not to mention humans, even the sun, moon, and stars had lifespans.    

    

There was also another Pill that could not be defeated with a golden spear. It had overdrawn its body and would eventually lead to its death.    

    

Swoosh swoosh!    

    

Following the appearance of Wang Xiao's powerful and flourishing Fire Genuine Qi, the medicinal ingredients in the furnace also underwent a change. They emitted a slight sound, as if the medicinal ingredients were gradually melting.    

    

Hearing the sound of these medicinal herbs melting, Wang Xiao felt very excited. After all, this was the first time refining a Pill, so how could he not be excited? Just when he was excited for a while, Wang Xiao smelt a burnt smell, and it was very obvious.    

    

What's going on!    

    

Could the medicinal herbs have been burnt?    

    

When Wang Xiao looked at the furnace, he was so angry that he spat out blood. F * ck, the furnace was burning red, and all the ingredients inside could be burnt. After stopping the refining, Wang Xiao looked inside the furnace and saw that all the ingredients were already black.    

    

This!    

    

Before he was refining the Pill, he had already thought of the final result. After all, this was his first time, so he would definitely fail, but he believed that even if he failed, he would at least refine an unformed Pill. However, he had never expected that the medicinal ingredients in the furnace would all be burnt.    

    

If that was the case, it could lower the temperature of the flame a little. Fortunately, the herbs were not expensive, as Wang Xiao predicted that it would fail, thus he used the cheapest medicine, a very cheap medicine.    

    

F * ck!    

    

After a silent curse, Wang Xiao said angrily: "Let's do it again."    

    

In order to prevent huge losses from happening after failure, Wang Xiao continued to use the worst quality medicinal ingredients and placed them into the furnace, then continued to refine Pill.    

    

After learning from the mistakes, Wang Xiao gained experience this time, lowering the Fire Genuine Qi s. It was just that like this, it would take more time, but he thought that it was possible to succeed, so he patiently waited. As long as he succeeded, it didn't matter if he wasted more time.    

    

Following the appearance of Wang Xiao's blazing Genuine Qi, it was as if warm water had boiled frogs, and patiently waiting. However, the blazing Genuine Qi was constantly consuming the Genuine Qi in his body.    

    

revealed a happy smile, this time he would definitely succeed, after all, half an hour had already passed, and still no charred aura appeared, even if it did not succeed, at the very least, the model of the Pill would appear on the medicinal ingredients in the pill furnace.    

    

After a few minutes, the burnt breath appeared again.    

    

When he smelled the scent, Wang Xiao suddenly had a bad feeling. Could it be that he failed again? Because he was very curious, Wang Xiao placed the Pill Refining Furnace on the ground and looked at the situation inside carefully.    

    

F * ck!    

    

When he clearly saw the situation inside, Wang Xiao could not help but curse loudly, and became scorched.    

    

Yes, it was still charred.    

    

Just what was going on!?    

    

Why was he still burnt? Wang Xiao really couldn't understand why he failed again, he was already very careful, and to prevent it from failing. He had already controlled the temperature of the fire to a very small degree, but it was still burnt.    

    

After all, he had been grilled by the flames for so long.    

    

Whoosh!    

    

After exhaling a breath of air, Wang Xiao sat on the ground helplessly, not caring about whether he was disappointed or not. At the moment, he really wanted to lie on the ground and rest up.    

    

Actually, failure isn't scary. What's scary is that even after failing, I still can't find the reason. Wang Xiao calmed his heart and started to carefully ponder over why he failed twice.
