"Spirit Gathering True Condensing Pill"
Li Chen's eyes flashed. Just by hearing this name, he knew that it was an extraordinary item. It must be related to cultivation pills. Thinking about it, Li Chen's heart couldn't help but become restless.
When the other bully heard this, he forgot his fear and looked at his companion with disbelief, followed by extreme greed.
This guy had hidden himself very well, and he still did not escape Li Chen's full senses. Every move of the two was seen by him, and Li Chen was even more certain that this was the truth.
Li Chen thought to himself that he had found a treasure, but his expression remained unchanged. He raised his leg and kicked the bully, who was trembling in excitement or fear. He stared at the bully who had shouted the Spirit-gathering Condensing Pill and pondered for a while before saying indifferently,"Tell me, where did you get the Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill?”
Li Chen pretended to have everything under control and looked disdainful. He wanted to see what this guy would say. He didn't dare to lie.
"Yes, yes."
Trembling, the young bully pulled open his shirt and tore open a sewn pocket. He took out a thumb-sized iron wooden box and respectfully handed it to Li Chen.
"I am Li Si. This is a medicinal pill. You must keep your promise as a martial artist…"
Li Chen had been staring at him. Seeing that his entire family was dead and he didn't seem to be faking it, he took the box. He weighed it in his hand and felt that it was quite light. With a pinch of his finger, the box opened.
After opening the box, a blood-red soybean-sized pill entered his sight. Li Chen's sharp sense of smell could clearly smell a sweet smell.
"This is the Spirit Gathering True Pill.”Li Chen pinched the pill and thought about it. Li Si looked at it and felt his heart break. If he was not greedy, he would not have been killed by this god of death. He was a martial artist a long time ago.
Li Si regretted his actions. Seeing that Li Chen did not react and was still staring at him, he quickly said with a trembling voice,"Milord, my elder brother is the centurion of the Vermillion Bird Workshop in the capital city of the Black Guard. He secretly gave me one through his connections."
It turned out that Li Si and his brother were orphans who had fled to Yan Capital and had been begging in this slum. Unexpectedly, his brother Li Er was quite talented and had a good constitution. He was accidentally discovered by the higher-ups of the black-robed guards and taken away, saying that he would be trained as a death warrior from a young age.
Li Si didn't have the aptitude for cultivation, so the black-robed guards naturally wouldn't be kind enough to take him in. After his brother left, he lived alone and had no one to rely on. He came into contact with many dark sides and naturally became a local ruffian. Later, he joined the so-called Ferocious Tiger Gang and became a thug. He did many evil things.
Having been alone for more than ten years, Li Si had given up on himself. He never thought that his brother, who had been separated from him for more than ten years three days ago, would actually find him.
His elder brother, Li Er, was now a Tier Six Warrior and had taken up the position of Centurion of the Black Shirt Guards. He was a loyal servant of the Fire Country's Imperial Family.
After Li Erfa developed, he did not forget his younger brother who lived in the slums. He used his position to find him and gave him a Spirit-gathering Condensing Pill, saying that he wanted to change his fate.
"The black-robed guards are said to be made up of martial artists. His brother is obviously a martial artist.
However, this Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill was obviously a medicinal pill for cultivators. Why would it be given to an ordinary person like him?
Could it be…This pill can help people sense true qi. In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Li Chen's mind.
"Since there are pills, why don't you take them?”
Li Si looked at Li Chen strangely. Seeing the killing intent in his eyes, he quickly said,"Big brother said that the pain after taking the Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill is unbearable. It is said that many people died from the pain after taking it."
After saying so much, Li Chen understood that although this guy was a fugitive, he was very afraid of death. It was ridiculous that he had not made a decision in three days.
Li Chen did not care if he was afraid of death or not. At this moment, his mind was filled with lightning and thunder. It was all about the effects of the Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill after ordinary people consumed it.
"Then what is the use of this pill?" Li Chen said word by word, staring at him.
"He actually doesn't know." Li Si immediately understood. As he thought about it, he suddenly had mixed feelings and did not know what to think.
He stammered, his face filled with regret. After a long while, he finally said,"Pills help ordinary people become martial artists…"
After hearing Li Si's words, Li Chen slapped him unconscious and then woke up his accomplices. The greed in this guy's eyes just now was still fresh in Li Chen's memory. All kinds of signs showed that he knew some information about the Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill.
I hope you know, or else you will die a horrible death. "Li Chen muttered.
In his daze, he felt a splitting headache, as if it was going to explode. Wang Jian slowly woke up and took a deep breath of cold air to look around. When he saw Li Chen looking down at him with his arms crossed, he was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat. He even forgot about his annoying headache.
This fiendish fellow! Wang Jian instantly recalled what happened before he fainted. The violent methods and the miserable death of his companions flashed through his mind in an instant. The impact was so deep that he would never forget it for the rest of his life!!
"Sir, spare me, spare me. I won't dare to do it again…" Wang Jian was sweating profusely as he lay on the ground and prayed. He could not care less about the stench of the dirty water.
"Shut up." Li Chen frowned and kicked him. His fingers pinched the Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill and said fiercely,"Tell me everything about the Spirit Gathering True Condensing Pill. If it's as he said, I'll spare your dog life.
If you lie, you know the consequences.”
After saying that, he stomped on the ground. He didn't use much strength, but a big pit of one meter square appeared on the ground. A big footprint clearly came into view.
If he stepped on me, wouldn't he be smashed into pieces?! Wang Jian gasped in shock.
"What did he say? Everything about the Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill…"
After a moment of panic, Wang Jian thought of Li Chen's question and couldn't help but be stunned. He looked at Li Chen in confusion, then looked at his unconscious companion, and suddenly understood.
"This guy must have obtained a fortuitous encounter in some deep mountain or old forest to become a martial artist. He doesn't know the magical effect of this Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill. He had just knocked him out, and now he woke him up to tell him about the Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill. His intention was obvious. He was afraid that the two of them would collude. What a lucky and cunning fellow!!”
Wang Jian was so envious that he didn't know what to say. However, he heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that there was a chance of survival, although it was very slim.
He cursed in his heart, but he didn't dare to hide anything and told her everything he knew. "This pill is called the Spirit Gathering True Condensing Pill. It has the ability to seize the fortune of heaven and earth. It can allow ordinary people without cultivation aptitude to defy the heavens and change their fate to become martial artists. Very, very precious."
As expected, as expected, the heavens did not give up on me!
Li Chen was so excited that his entire body trembled slightly. As he had expected, this was not a dream. This was real. Holding back the urge to cry, he knew that he could finally fulfill his dream of martial arts. He no longer had to look at flowers in the fog and wait bitterly.
There was no need to rush to find Village Chief's master. Village Chief also had time to realize his value. The heavens had treated him well!
Li Chen suppressed his excitement and did not lose his cool. He asked coldly,""Since it's so magical, it's very precious. How can a mere centurion have it? Are you lying to me?”
Li Chen did not let his joy get to his head. He calmly expressed his doubts. His fists were clenched so tightly that they creaked. He looked like he was going to kill him if he said anything wrong.
Wang Jian was scared out of his wits. He cursed Li Chen in his heart, but now that he was under the roof, he had no choice but to lower his head. "No, no, Your Excellency, I'm telling the truth." Although this Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill had miraculous effects and could be said to be a creation of heaven and earth, the prescription was widely circulated on the continent. Some people from some factions could obtain it, so it was not rare.“
That shouldn't be so much that even a character like you can have it, right? "Li Chen still doesn't quite believe it.
His mother was too cautious. Wang Jian said bitterly," That's because the major powers don't care about this pill at all. They only use it to win over people like us who don't have any power or strength.”
"Why? Speak." Li Chen was shocked. According to what he said, didn't this mean that the effect of this pill was ordinary or that there were some side effects? Then wouldn't he be happy for nothing?
"Because…"
Li Chen's guess was right. The Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill had the ability to seize the fortune of heaven and earth. It could allow ordinary people to become martial artists. Logically speaking, the force that obtained it had to be extremely secretive. But the truth was that it was used to win over his subordinates, and it was these unimportant subordinates.
Why? The reason for this was because the side effects after taking the pill were too great, so great that people did not dare to try it.
From what Wang Jian had said, Li Chen knew. It turned out that the appearance of the Spirit Gathering Condensing Pill was quite legendary. There was a story of ups and downs that spread until now, and people talked about it with relish.
The story took place in the Shang Dynasty, one of the three great dynasties on the continent. It was said that 13,000 years ago, the dynasty welcomed the 130,000-year founding celebration.
The Shang Dynasty was one of the top powers on the continent. It was a joyous occasion, so it naturally had a sea of guests and friends. Experts from all walks of life gathered in the imperial capital. At that time, the emperor was very happy and drank a lot of immortal wine and delicacies. He did not use any mystic techniques to drive the wine away. By the end of the banquet, he was already slightly tipsy.
As the saying goes, drunkenness leads to disorder. He, who had a high cultivation level as the Emperor, was no exception. At night, he visited the maid who served him.
Of course, none of this was important. As the Emperor, he had a long lifespan. Not to mention a maid, it was not a problem for him to have fun every night.
However, the problem was that the maid was a mixed human and demon. After a one-night stand, she actually got pregnant and gave birth to a mixed human and demon baby.
Demons had always been intolerable to these righteous guardians. Moreover, their child was a bastard, so they could not be tolerated by these large factions.
After the servant girl died, the Emperor felt a bit of sympathy and spared the child's life. Of course, it was impossible for him to admit that the baby was his child. He would throw him into the Chores Quarters and let him fend for himself.
One could imagine that the child had a very bad life. He had been alone since he was young and had to endure everyone's bullying. Those 'brothers and sisters' were even more ashamed of him and often humiliated and scolded him for fun.
The little boy endured silently, but his fate was full of misfortune. When he was ten years old, his dantian was shattered by his biological brother, and he became a complete cripple.
