This was Chen Lin's first flying sword, and it had become scrap metal on its first use.Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com
His face turned grave.
Regardless of the pain of losing his weapon, he quickly retreated.
The opponent's move was enough to prove that he wasn't the incompetent old man he seemed to be, but a deep and hidden villain.
To be able to shatter spiritual treasures with ease, even low-level ones, required a profound amount of power.
This person was definitely not a Qi Refining initial stage cultivator, at least in a mid-stage or possibly even a late-stage Qi Refining!
"If you want to leave, don't blame me for not reminding you. The Enlightenment Pill you're using isn't a real one, but a modified version. Even if you stop taking it, the aftereffects will still occur periodically."
As Chen Lin took action, the old man didn't chase after him, but instead spoke in a leisurely tone.
Chen Lin's footsteps came to a halt, and his facial expression changed.
Suddenly, he looked shocked and stared at the old man. "So it was you! You're the one who sold me the Enlightenment Pill formula, and that triangular eye was your disguise!"
The opponent had revealed the drawbacks of the Enlightenment Pill and used it to threaten Chen Lin, making him suddenly realize everything.
He thought to himself, "How could it be so coincidental? I had just left the Water Moon Pavilion, and then I encountered someone selling wild pill formulas, and it just so happened to be the Enlightenment Pill."
Previously, he had thought that the triangular eye was following him, but even if that were the case, it wouldn't be possible to know about his conversation at the Water Moon Pavilion.
So, that person must be this old man in disguise, and he must have a connection with the woman from the Water Moon Pavilion!
As Chen Lin realized all this, he couldn't help but feel a chill.
It turned out that all his actions during this time had been part of the old man's plan, and the old man might have even secretly used some kind of mental interference technique on him.
Otherwise, with his cautious nature, he wouldn't have rashly bought the formula and tried to refine it.
This was a long-planned scheme!
But what could he possibly have that the old man would be interested in?
Chen Lin couldn't understand.
"Who are you, exactly?"
It was unlikely that he had determined that the original host would definitely be possessed by him before he even transmigrated.
Chen Lin couldn't understand, so he simply didn't think about it anymore. He calmly said, "Yu Yuehai, you've gone to great lengths. Now can you tell me what you want me to do?"
The old man smiled faintly and patted a small, greyish bag at his waist. A half-person-tall, dark red, and mysterious talisman-covered alchemy furnace suddenly appeared and fell to the ground.
Chen Lin's eyebrows rose in surprise. "An alchemy furnace?"
This was a genuine alchemy furnace, not the fake iron pot he used. It was a true spiritual treasure.
Moreover, the dense talisman patterns on the furnace suggested that it wasn't even a low-level one.
A spiritual treasure alchemy furnace was priceless, and it was impossible for a Qi Refining cultivator to possess one. The old man's identity was definitely not ordinary.
If he had this furnace, he could refine many pills, including the legendary Foundation Establishment Pill. Unlike his iron pot, which could only refine the lowest-level pills and relied on his innate abilities, otherwise, the success rate would not be too low.
The old man was pleased with Chen Lin's expression. This alchemy furnace was something he had obtained with great difficulty, and even with his wealth, it was extremely precious.
"Daoist Chen, I've already said that I need your help with alchemy. This is the pill formula I want to refine. You can take a look."
As he spoke, the old man patted the small bag at his waist again, and a jade slip appeared in his hand.
At this point, Chen Lin finally looked at the old man's bag, which was a storage bag with the miraculous function of being able to store a huge amount of items in a small space. It was something he had always wanted to get his hands on but couldn't afford.
Just a single cubic meter of internal space would cost dozens of mid-grade spirit stones!
Chen Lin's gaze returned to the jade slip, which he took and placed on his forehead to examine.
"Blood Demon Pill?"
After a moment, he took the jade slip away, looking puzzled.
The information on the jade slip was indeed a pill formula, but the name didn't seem to be anything good.
Moreover, Chen Lin felt that the original host's memories had some information about this pill, but it was very vague.
At this point, the old man's voice sounded. "That's right, it's the Blood Demon Pill, a necessary pill for cultivating the Blood Demon Technique."
At this time, Chen Lin's eyebrows moved, and he said, "I remember now. It's the pill that can create a super strong person with just one pill!"
He hadn't expected that the old man wanted to refine this pill. The original host's memories about the Blood Demon Pill suddenly became clear.
