There are many strangely shaped buildings in the imperial city, some of which were built at will by the mighty, some of which lack artistry, and some of which exist as symbols of some kind.
A bronze tripod stands in the corner of the imperial city. It is as tall as a hill, with a surface as smooth as a mirror and full of various details. Its ancient beauty can be felt from afar.
This is the most prosperous area in the imperial city, and every inch of land is worth a lot of money. To put such a bronze tripod here, the spiritual stones required are astronomical in price.
Apart from a few big forces like the Ludijin Money Chamber of Commerce, no one can afford this money.
Many old men with white hair and white robes, exuding the fragrance of elixirs, walked into the bronze tripod with their hands behind their backs, looking at everyone else.
Passersby passing by the bronze tripod showed admiration and envy when they saw the old men walking into the bronze tripod.
These are all well-known masters in the art of alchemy, and many of them are the pioneers of a certain method of alchemy.
This is the Alchemy Alliance, representing the authority and pinnacle of alchemy. Every year, countless alchemists announce their remarkable achievements to the outside world. It is the holy place in the minds of all alchemists except for the Alchemy Peak of the Wending Sect.
In the bronze tripod, the taciturn alchemists sat around an exquisite stone table, with no expression on their faces.
A figure arrived late, announcing the start of the meeting.
He is Qing Yunzi, the chief alchemist of the Alchemy Alliance. With his superb skills, he is undoubtedly the strongest alchemist.
Those sitting here are all veterans in the alchemy world, possessing unique skills, but they all acknowledge Qing Yunzi's status.
Even the usually arrogant Seventh Elder admitted that Qing Yunzi was the alchemy master second only to him.
Qing Yunzi smiled calmly, and said calmly: "This regular meeting is the same as usual, and is aimed at exchanging experiences in alchemy. Everyone can speak freely."
"Can you really say whatever you want?" an alchemy master raised his hand and asked.
"Can."
The alchemy master's face changed, and he slammed the table and said angrily: "Qing Yunzi, you are late, why are you pretending here? We have been sitting here for a long time, waiting for you!"
Obviously, acknowledging Qing Yunzi's status as an alchemist does not mean tolerating his lateness.
"Sorry, sorry, I was just studying the recipe and made a breakthrough. I was so happy that I forgot the time."
"What kind of elixir are you researching that makes you so obsessed?"
Qing Yunzi smiled mysteriously: "An ancient recipe for a pill, the fertility pill."
"You succeeded in refining it?!" Everyone was surprised. They all had the recipe for the fertility pill, but no matter how they refined it, it could only beautify the Taoist couple's skin.
Recently, there have been a lot of beauty-enhancing pills circulating in the black market. These are all useless pills made by them. They are useless except for making the people who take them look good.
"That's not the case yet, but I have already got some clues. According to my research, the owner of the recipe for the fertility pill is called Qing He. She is suspected to have a close relationship with a certain immortal. Maybe the fertility pill is also related to this immortal!"
"It's actually related to immortals, which makes sense." Everyone was surprised at first, and then they understood. They thought there must be an immortal fruit in the elixir ingredients, so they had difficulty recovering.
"Oh, I thought there would be some major breakthrough, but it turns out to be just this?" After hearing this, the Seventh Elder sneered at Qing Yunzi's so-called research.
"I was wondering who it was. It turns out to be Wujizi from Alchemy Peak. What do you think?" When Qingyunzi saw that it was the Seventh Elder, his calm expression changed and his words became more tense.
Qing Yunzi and the Seventh Elder looked at each other and confronted each other.
Seeing this, everyone didn't know what to say, as everyone knew about these two people.
These two men fell in love with the same girl when they were young. After a fight, mainly with the Seventh Elder pinning Qing Yunzi to the ground and beating him, the girl finally chose the talented Seventh Elder.
The feud between the two began.
Since the Seventh Elder often refines strange pills, it is difficult for everyone to judge how good his pill-refining skills are.
But what is certain is that when it comes to fighting, every one of those present is no match for the Seventh Elder.
The Seventh Elder said slowly: "According to my research, the key point of the pill recipe is not the pill itself, but the method of taking it."
"Did you notice that the prescription begins with the instructions for taking it: 'Take it with river water to get pregnant.'"
"Why do you mention 'river water' specifically? Wouldn't it be better to just use 'water'?"
"With this question in mind, I searched through ancient books and consulted young scholars who knew about ancient times, and finally found the answer."
"The river water mentioned in the recipe is not ordinary river water, but the water of the Zimu River refined by immortals in ancient times!"
"If you take the water from the Zimu River, you can get pregnant!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked: "What?!"
"Zimu River?"
“There is such a magical river?!”
Although the pills refined by the Seventh Elder were very strange, he had never joked about such things!
"Which immortal is it?" Qing Yunzi asked anxiously, not caring about the dispute with the Seventh Elder.
He searched through all the ancient books and even borrowed rare copies from the palace, but he still couldn't find the name of the immortal. It was as if it had been deliberately hidden!
The Seventh Elder nodded calmly and revealed a secret: "It is Ying Tianxian."
Qing Yunzi suddenly realized: "So it was him? Now everything makes sense."
"What do you mean?" Everyone didn't understand why Qing Yunzi said that. They hadn't heard that Ying Tianxian had refined the Zi Mu River
Qing Yunzi said mysteriously: "I found an ancient book from a ruin, called "Cooking Encyclopedia". Although it has not been completely deciphered, I can be sure of one thing. This book seems to teach people how to cook, but it actually contains mysteries."
Everyone was puzzled. The name of this book sounded like an ancient cookbook, right
"At first, I thought it was an ancient recipe just like everyone else, but I made a few dishes at random and found that anyone who ate them would end up in a coma at best!"
"This is not a recipe, it's a poison book!"
Everyone gasped. The Ancient Poison Scripture, that sounded terrifying.
"And the author of this poison book is none other than Ying Tianxian!"
"Elix and poison are inseparable. Since Ying Tianxian can write this book on poison, he must be very proficient in the ideals of elixir!"
"I've heard a saying passed down from ancient times that the strongest alchemist doesn't look for medicinal materials, but invents them!"
"Zi Mu River must be the medicinal material refined by Ying Tianxian!"
"No, maybe the water of Zimu River is not medicinal, but poisonous!"
"When fighting, use the water from the Zimu River to poison the enemy, and the enemy will become pregnant, so he won't be able to fight, right?" The more Qing Yunzi spoke, the brighter his eyes became. He felt that his analysis was interconnected, as if he had unravelled a layer of the mystery of the ancient times!
"How many women would become pregnant because of the water from the Zimu River refined by Ying Tianxian?" Everyone marveled at Ying Tianxian's power.
He is worthy of being an immortal, being able to refine such a rare item.
After the servant poured water for everyone, he left quietly. Everyone here was a master of alchemy, and they were all talking about immortals. He was frightened and didn't dare to stay.
As soon as he came outside, he was surrounded by his companions.
"What's going on? What does it say?"
This is the most advanced alchemist conference, representing the most cutting-edge knowledge in the alchemy world. Just hearing a little bit of it is enough for them to show off.
The servant was a little embarrassed because he was too scared just now and didn't listen carefully.
He tried to recall the conversation between the alchemy masters, but he was a little uncertain:
"It seems to be saying that the ancient immortal Ying Tianxian made countless women pregnant?"
His companions gasped.
This is an ancient secret.
