"Aagh!!!"
"Gurgle~ gurgle~"
Looking at this pool of so-called body-tempering liquid, Li Wei, in front of the screen, broke out in a cold sweat.
"As expected of the Deadly Pharmacist..."
It wasn't just Li Wei who was worried. There were quite a few Li family mbers in the Thunderfire Cave.
At that mont, Li Yaotie and his wife, along with Li Yunbing, were all present beside the bubbling, green body-tempering liquid. Looking at this strange concoction, even though they had experienced mountains of corpses and seas of blood, they couldn't help but feel a chill down their spines.
Li Yaotie touched his bald head. "Second Sister," he asked nervously, "you... you're not going to kill my three great-grandsons with this, are you?"
"Of course not," she replied.
Li Yaoqing sneered and said, "This was concocted from three hundred and sixty different kinds of poisons that I've gathered over the years. If they weren't my own family, and if Kuangren wasn't going to fight for that ridiculous marriage, I would have offered it as a tribute to our ancestor."
The others had barely relaxed when Li Yaoqing added calmly, "Besides, I've been concocting dicines for many years. Whether the dosage is too high or the toxicity is too strong, you'll know just by seeing if the person using it dies or not."
"...."
Li Yaotie's entire bald head seed to wrinkle in worry. "I only have six great-grandsons," he said anxiously. "Two of them are already out of the picture, and one is going to marry into the Gu family and start a branch family. Second Sister, don't go killing them all!"
"Alright, alright," Li Yaoqing said dismissively. "Do you really think my titles as the Holy Maiden of Herbs and the Deadly Pharmacist are for nothing? Our ancestor is much better; he doesn't doubt at all."
Li Yaoqing shooed the three of them away. "Third Brother," she said, "aren't you trying to break through to the Seventh Grade? I can't wait for your Seventh-Grade spirit puppets to help cultivate dicinal herbs."
"Rourou," she continued, "didn't Fourth Sister ask you to help Tianshuang return to the Swamp Forest and capture those two Demon Kings? Rember to bring back the Seventh-Grade spiritual materials from there for . I also want to start working on my breakthrough to the Seventh Grade."
"Yunbing, you go as well. Your elder brother will be finishing his seclusion soon. You haven't seen each other in years, so you should catch up. And see if there's anything within the Skyveil Sect that can be of use to our Li family."
Watching the others leave with apprehension, Li Yaoqing sat down cross-legged.
Actually, she wasn't wrong. Li Wei truly never doubted Li Yaoqing's abilities.
After all, she possessed the "Thousand Herbs Canon" and the "Heaven's Wrath Wood and Plant Divine Art"
With her various traits and the dical experience she had accumulated over the years, it was impossible for anything to go wrong.
"But trying to show filial piety to your ancestor like this is going too far."
Li Wei grumbled. Staying in the Thunderfire Cave for so long, this Yaoqing had beco sowhat demonic.
He then clicked on the pool of frightening green liquid.
[Ninth-Grade Revolving Azure Pool]
[Description: A body-tempering pool secretly concocted by Li Yaoqing, made from a fusion of 360 different poisons. Li Yaoqing personally tested many of these poisons to understand their properties. Using potent dicines to stimulate the bones, ridians, spirit roots, and dantian's energy reservoir, there's a chance to increase the value of each spirit root by 8-15 points. The body constantly undergoes division and recombination due to the intense dicinal effects, allowing for the absorption of a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth.]
[Side effects: Extre pain. Prolonged imrsion for those with weak constitutions may result in death, becoming vegetative, or dentia.]
"...."
Li Wei thought that if this incredible concoction were sold in the real world, it would probably receive very few negative reviews.
In the ga.
Li Yaoqing saw her family mbers leave and sighed in relief. "Finally, they're gone," she muttered.
She crouched beside the pool, watching the three children inside the Revolving Azure Pool, who were still screaming in pain.
"You guys are lucky," she said under her breath.
Li Yaoqing stuck out her tongue playfully and smiled. Then, vines erged from around her.
The vines beca like roots and stems, gently lifting Li Yaoqing up as if she were a sacred statue.
Gradually, flowers blood on the vines, spreading across the barren land tainted with demonic energy from years of battles between demon cultivators. These flowers seed so out of place, yet they blood with such captivating beauty.
Even the repulsive Ninth-Grade Revolving Azure Pool gained a strange beauty due to the blossoming of these flowers.
Trees began to sprout from the ground, forming buds and blossoming into flowers.
The cave, which had resembled a demonic lair, was now like a spring day, brimming with life, a veritable paradise.
Li Yaoqing was like a flower fairy, guarding the blossoms.
But seeing this scene, Li Wei's expression changed drastically.
[Your descendant, Li Yaoqing, is using the "Heaven's Wrath Wood and Plant Divine Art" technique. She is consuming her lifespan to heal and enhance the three children's physique and aptitude with the power of herbs and wood!]
The flowers dancing in mid-air descended and landed on the three children in the pool.
Their cries ceased, as if they had fallen into a warm embrace. Their breathing gradually cald, and they seed to be having a pleasant dream.
Li Wei finally understood why Li Yaoqing had said, "You guys are lucky."
She must have known about the toxicity of the Ninth-Grade Revolving Azure Pool and feared that Li Yaotie, his wife, and Li Yunbing would stop her. That was why she had sent them away!
