Because, based on previous experiences, this should be the time for storms, lightning, and thunderbolts to descend from the heavens, punishing him and destroying the Elixir of Immortality in his hands. But now, there is not a trace of thunder in sight.

Does this mean the elixir he crafted is not a divine elixir, lacking any miraculous effects, thus failing to attract the attention of the heavens? Does this mean

He has failed in his alchemical endeavor this time?

However, he followed his previous experiences meticulously, without making a single mistake. Why is it turning out like this?

Dont panic, dont panic. Maybe the heavenly punishment is just delayed! the Empty Void Empty consoled himself, while on the other side, the Great Xia Emperor and his entourage frowned in silence, gazing at the sky.

They continued with the alchemical process.

The Imperial Teacher had mentioned that thunder would come, but why has it taken so long without any sign of thunder? Could there be something wrong?

They wanted to ask a few questions, but feared disturbing the Imperial Teacher, so they kept their words to themselves.

At this moment, the Empty Void Daoist continued his alchemical efforts, stirring and mixing. The alchemical furnace danced in the air, showing off, but still failed to attract the attention of the heavens.

The unscrupulous Daoist maintained a calm facade, but his heart was in turmoil.

Thunder tribulation, why hasnt it arrived yet? If you dont come soon, my elixir will be ruined!

Dont panic, dont panic, just a little more waiting, it will come soon! he comforted himself once again.

And with that waiting, the time passed like an incense stick burning.

The sky remained cloudless, exceptionally clear, and the night was very quiet, except for the sound of his alchemical efforts. The Great Xia Emperor and his ministers found it hard to stand any longer, so they had a few chairs brought in to rest.

Then, they continued to watch the Empty Void Daoist tirelessly perform his alchemy.

The Great Xia Emperor quietly asked those around him, Why has it taken so long, and the divine elixir still hasnt been produced? According to the Imperial Teachers instructions, we should have witnessed the arrival of the Thunder Punishment by now. Why is there still no sign of movement?

This The officials exchanged glances, unsure of how to respond. In the end, an elderly minister reassured the Emperor, Your Majesty, as the saying goes, good things take time, and divine substances are not easily crafted! As you can see, the Imperial Teacher remains calm and composed, which means everything is under control! So, we just need to be patient, and the divine elixir will soon be complete!

The Great Xia Emperor nodded in agreement, A wise counsel indeed. Lets exercise patience!

At this moment, the unscrupulous Daoist, who appeared serene in everyones eyes, was panicking deep inside.

If you dont come soon, the Elixir of Immortality will be ruined!

Can you still consume a ruined Elixir of Immortality?

Moreover, hes really struggling to hold on!

Just a moment ago, he vomited so much blood consecutively, and now his body is weak from blood loss. Even though hes a natural-born expert, losing so much blood will affect him.

If it werent for his iron-like will, he would have already collapsed!

Oh heavens, please send down a thunderbolt! Strike me if you must, as long as I can craft the divine elixir, Im willing to offer my 200 pounds of fat as a sacrifice to you! the unscrupulous Daoist silently prayed to the heavens. Just then, a deafening roar was heard.

The unscrupulous Daoists heart leaped, thinking that heaven had heard his plea and sent down a thunderbolt.

It should be mine, none of you will succeed!

Lets see who has the upper hand!

As the unfamiliar strong individuals fought over his divine elixir, the Great Xia Emperor grew furious and shouted, Quickly, snatch back my Elixir of Immortality!

Yes, Your Majesty! The experts of the Great Xia Dynasty sprang into action, blocking various challengers while attempting to retrieve the divine elixir.

Even the Imperial Guards stationed within the palace joined the fray. The palace descended into chaos.

The divine elixir, which was being contested by all, kept flying through the air, changing hands repeatedly, and constantly being knocked away.

The Great Xia Emperor, standing on the ground, watched anxiously. He feared that they might inadvertently shatter his life-extending elixir.

Your Majesty, this place is extremely dangerous. Lets retreat for now! someone advised.

I wont leave! If I cant get back the divine elixir, I will not leave! The Great Xia Emperor gazed at the flying elixir with a fanatical expression.

Meanwhile, the unscrupulous Daoist was overjoyed.

Fight all you want; I hope they destroy the medicine so I can get away unscathed!

However, despite the intense battle, everyone was cautious not to damage the divine elixir.

In the end, the experts of the Great Xia Dynasty prevailed. After paying a heavy price, they finally repelled all the attackers and reclaimed the Elixir of Immortality, presenting it to the Great Xia Emperor.

Your Majesty, the divine elixir is here, please enjoy! The Great Xia Emperor was delighted. All of you, my loyal ministers, have done well in protecting the elixir. You shall all be generously rewarded! After I consume the Elixir of Immortality and achieve eternal life, I will ensure that your efforts are duly recognized!

Thank you, Your Majesty! the people rejoiced.

Amidst everyones anticipation, the Great Xia Emperor extended his trembling hand and received the dark and foul-smelling divine elixir. He said with fanaticism, This is the legendary Elixir of Immortality! When I consume it, I will surely achieve eternal life and oversee the world. The Great Xia Dynasty will continue for generations, forever flourishing!

With that, he brought the divine elixir towards his mouth. Your Majesty, wait! the unscrupulous Daoist called out.

The Great Xia Emperor paused, smiling, Imperial Teacher, what is it?

The unscrupulous Daoist observed the dark and unappealing pill that didnt resemble an elixir but rather seemed like poison. His lips twitched slightly, and he thought, Will this thing cause any harm when ingested?

Nothing, Your Majesty. Please proceed, the unscrupulous Daoist replied hesitantly.

The Great Xia Emperor assumed that the unscrupulous Daoist was reluctant and chuckled, Imperial Teacher, after all, this divine elixir was created to be consumed! Rest assured, I wont forget your contributions. Once I achieve eternal life, I will honor my promise and grant you a place of honor by my side.

With that, he swallowed the elixir in one gulp. Your Majesty, wait! the unscrupulous Daoist called out.
