"Fourth-grade elixir—Nine Souls Heavenly Pill!"

"The young master has finally used his ultimate move!"

"Hehe, this pill should be the original one that has not been improved. But even if it is this pill, it was made under the guidance of the young master, and the person who refined it is also a master of his generation... This pill is absolutely flawless!"

“Win!”

Almost at the moment when Chu He took out the pill, he secretly felt victorious. Even Mu Liuling felt a tightness in his heart. However, Chu Tianxiao was not in a hurry. He smiled slightly and took out a pill as well.

"The top third-grade elixir—Ice Soul Jade Bone Pill!"

Chu Tianxiao also held up a "cold moon". The confrontation between the two was not only a comparison of the strength of the pill, but also a confrontation of their own momentum! In just a moment, the two staggered their figures, and then Chu He picked up the Bingpo Yugu Pill, and after thinking carefully for a long time, he slowly opened his mouth to tell the details of this pill...

Exactly what you said!

However, Chu He pondered for a long time on the flaws.

Just when the person behind him began to get worried, Chu He suddenly smiled and spoke.

"If I'm not mistaken, this pill was obtained by you, cousin Tian Xiao, from Luo Bingqing, right? Well... it was at least made by a fourth-rank alchemist, and after years of nurturing, it's almost flawless..."

"but… "

Chu He looked at Chu Tianxiao, revealing a hint of irony in his smile. "Although this pill itself has no flaws, there have been major problems with its recent maintenance, causing the medicinal power to begin to drain. Although it is not obvious and can be salvaged, it is still a flaw!"

"As for the evidence, it is a detail of the Dan pattern here. If it were normal, it should be in the shape of an ice flower..."

Chu He finished his words slowly and logically, which was irrefutable...

"To sum up, the biggest flaw of this pill is that it is not preserved with cold and clear water!"

Chu He waved his hand, and the people behind him immediately cheered.

“Win!”

"Hahaha! After all, the young master is more skilled!"

"Even the problems of just a few days of postnatal maintenance can be seen. Young master's alchemy skills are unmatched!"

At this moment, Chu He's face also showed an expression of confidence in victory. He was extremely confident in his Nine Soul Heavenly Pill. If it were not for the initial test and his later concerns about not wanting Chu Tianxiao to see some of the ingredients in the pill, he would have sacrificed the pill and won directly!

In his opinion, he was the only one in the world who could improve the Nine Souls Heavenly Pill. Even if Chu Tianxiao understood a lot about the principles of pills and knew about many rare treasures, it would be impossible for him to improve this pill!

This is the miraculous elixir that Li Jiangong never made public! It is the result of his life's hard work!

Chu Tianxiao... there is absolutely no way he could find any flaws! So, he won!

However…

Just as this thought flashed through Chu He's mind, Chu Tianxiao said leisurely: "Cousin, my elixir still has a big flaw, much bigger than you said, you actually... didn't notice it?"

"What?" Chu He was extremely puzzled after hearing this. "How is it possible?"

"Hehe... Cousin, do you think what you said is all?"

"…Cousin Tianxiao, is he trying to trick me? Of course it's all!"

"Not changing it?"

"nature!"

"So... Congratulations, cousin. You got the answer wrong."

After these words fell, the Heart-Searching Crane in Chu Tianxiao's hand did not move. Obviously, this was not a lie...

"Once upon a time, there was a man who thought he was smart. One day, someone asked him, suppose you have ten stones in front of you, and there is a mountain of stones next to you. You throw away five stones first, then pick up two stones from the mountain, and then throw away three more... and so on... Before the man finished asking, the smart man wanted to give the answer in advance, thinking he had won. As a result, the man asked: How many times did you throw the stones in total?"

"The wise man was speechless."

Chu Tianxiao spoke slowly, looking at Chu He, with a sarcastic smile on his face.

"Cousin, you and that so-called smart guy made the same mistake!"

After saying this, Chu He frowned deeply. Then, prompted by Chu Tianxiao's gaze, he grabbed the jade bottle and suddenly found a line of characters engraved below it - "Ice Soul Jade Poison Pill!"

Ice Soul Jade Bone Pill…

Ice Soul Jade Poison Pill...

The two are only one word apart, but there is a world of difference between them!

The former is a good medicine for nourishing the Ice Soul's body. Even if taken by ordinary people, it has some effect of warming the meridians. But the latter... is a deadly poison!

"You actually took... the jade bottle that contained the Ice Soul Jade Poison Pill to put the Ice Soul Jade Bone Pill in?"

Chu He couldn't believe his eyes: "Aren't you afraid of ruining this pill?"

"Oh, cousin, now that you mention it, I remember it now. Fortunately, it's just the bottle that held the elixir that has a problem. The aura is very thin, and it will take at least twelve days to slowly penetrate... Hey? Today is exactly the eleventh day! Thank you, cousin, I'll change the bottle right away..."

"You!—" Chu He heard this, how could he not know that he was being tricked by this prodigal son? He gritted his teeth and said, "Does this count?"

"Of course it counts. A single word can lead to a huge mistake. How can the bottle not be a flaw? Imagine if you keep leaving it there, the remaining energy of the Ice Soul Jade Poison Pill will destroy the pill. You let go of such a big flaw. Isn't it considered a mistake?"

Chu Tianxiao said leisurely: "Just as you said, cousin, it's a matter of postnatal maintenance. Since what you said can be considered a flaw, then why can't this be considered a flaw?"

As soon as these words came out, Chu He felt his throat blocked. He felt that Chu Tianxiao's words and actions seemed casual, but in fact, they were full of traps. It was really hard to guard against!

He was really impressed. He was actually led by Chu Tianxiao to "focus on the wrong point"...

But at the same time, he couldn't help but admire Chu Tianxiao's courage. That was the top third-grade elixir, the Ice Soul Jade Bone Pill! Even if he didn't need it, he could exchange it with others for other natural treasures. As long as he found the right person, he could even get a 'Star Fruit' that was necessary for a perfect marrow cleansing! But Chu Tianxiao casually put such an elixir into the jade bottle that had once contained poison... How brave was he? He didn't worry at all about an accident that would cause the poison to invade the Ice Soul Jade Bone Pill in advance

Asking himself honestly, Chu He believes that he cannot do this. In the entire Great Zhou, Chu Tianxiao is the only one who does not care about the Luo family's elixir that has been nurtured for Luo Bingqing for many years.

But secretly admiring someone is one thing, and being tricked is another... At that moment, Chu He took a deep breath and sighed, "Well, I'm screwed this time! But according to the rules, cousin Tian Xiao should also take a look at my Nine Soul Heavenly Pill to see if there are any flaws, right? There are many people here, not to mention the materials."

"Strange, they are all in the same group, why don't they tell us the materials?"

"Hmph!" Chu He snorted coldly, but ignored Chu Tianxiao's pretending to be stupid and provoking him.

Fortunately, Chu Tianxiao didn't intend to dwell on it too much. He poured out the pill, held it in his palm and looked at it carefully.

"Nine Soul Heavenly Pill... Chu He's signature item..."

"This kind of elixir should be invented by him... or Lord Li Jian. However, I have the Great Prodigal System. As long as I have seen it, I can analyze it! There is no problem with elixirs below the fifth grade!"

Chu Tianxiao thought about this and quickly analyzed the recipe, but...

"Although it is a fourth-grade elixir, it is made completely in accordance with the quality requirements of a fifth-grade elixir..."

"No matter the technique, efficacy, or heat... there is absolutely no problem. We have strived for perfection! Even if there is still room for improvement, it can only make it 'stronger', not that this pill has 'flaws'... From the pill itself, it is really hard to find a convincing flaw..."

"Interesting, it is rumored that there is a mysterious 'alchemist' in the Chu family, who works loyally for Chu He. I originally thought it was just a rumor, a non-existent person created by Chu He to avoid the limelight... Now I think this person is probably real! Because according to the previous elixirs, Chu He's alchemy skills... should not have been 'recovered' to the level where he can refine fourth-grade elixirs by himself. At least, it is very difficult and cannot be so perfect..."

"But even so..."

Chu Tianxiao's lips gradually curled up into a smile: "Still, it's under my control!"

"It's time to end this battle of elixirs!" (To be continued.)
