The Strongest Knight

There was nothing much to do on Changchun Peak that day.

Hua Wuque came to find Zhao Qinghe again and invited him to go down the mountain to hunt wild game.

Because of the uncertainty with Liu Changle, Zhao Qinghe had rejected Hua Wuque's invitation countless times before.

But Hua Wuque continued to invite them tirelessly.

It was this diligence that made Zhao Qinghe realize that something was wrong.

Zhao Qinghe looked at Hua Wuque, who looked as usual, and sighed inwardly. That time when he went to the mountain of Liu Changle, Wuque, who seemed safe and sound on the surface, was still caught.

The monsters' methods are varied and difficult to guard against. Even Xing Huai Zhenren could not notice anything unusual about Hua Wuque.

I just don’t know what Hua Wuque’s current condition is. Has he been planted with a time bomb like Liu Sakisui, or has he been directly controlled and turned into a puppet? I don’t know if he can be rescued.

"Liu Changle will attack me sooner or later, so let me take the first step and test the waters." Zhao Qinghe said to himself.

A thought flashed through Zhao Qinghe's mind, and he turned to Hua Wuque and said, "Brother, I'm busy preparing for my promotion recently, so I won't go down the mountain. But I've been feeling a little greedy recently, can you bring me some game?"

Hua Wu Que was startled for a moment, then nodded: "Haha, of course no problem!"

Hua Wuque went down the mountain excitedly. Zhao Qinghe looked at the time and it was time to learn the old alchemy skills as agreed with his teacher, so he walked towards the alchemy room.

"Qinghe, you're here." Xinghuai Zhenren was still the same as before, with white hair and beard, but very good skin and a youthful face. When he saw Zhao Qinghe coming in, an unnoticeable look of relief appeared on his face.

"Well, teacher, let's start." Zhao Qinghe nodded.

Taoist Xing Huai opened the lid of the alchemy furnace with one hand, and a wisp of extremely hot white mist rose up. Zhao Qinghe quickly picked up a portion of medicinal materials beside the alchemy furnace and threw it down.

After more than ten seconds, the aroma of medicine came from the furnace, and Zhao Qinghe threw down eight kinds of medicinal materials in succession...

This is the process of refining the Huanglongdan. Except for the process of using the Lingyun technique to nourish the elixir, Master Xinghuai has already started to let Zhao Qinghe participate in the rest of the process.

Each alchemist has a completely different understanding of each pill recipe, and the refining techniques vary greatly. They are all exclusive collections.

And Master Xinghuai passed everything to his only disciple Zhao Qinghe without reservation.

Therefore, over the past few years, Zhao Qinghe has accumulated quite a lot of experience in alchemy.

After the medicinal materials are put in, the next step is the time-consuming second step of 'melting the medicine'. During the melting process, the spiritual essence technique needs to be used to constantly warm the medicine. The simplest melting step of the Yellow Dragon Pill will last for two days and two nights, with only a short time for practice during this period.

During this process, Zhao Qinghe stood by and observed carefully.

Taoist Xing Huai then explained in detail the reasons for the changes in the alchemy furnace and how to rescue it in the event of an accident.

The rich medicinal aroma began to fade until it could no longer be smelled, and the process of Huanglongdan melting was completed.

The last step of "making the elixir" also requires the spiritual energy technique. After a whole day, the entire alchemy furnace made a muffled sound, and streams of white gas spurted out from the four ears of the furnace.

"The pill is done!" Xing Huai Zhenren shouted, and opened the lid of the alchemy furnace. In the middle of the furnace, there were a total of thirty-six pills the size of a little finger spinning in the middle.

With Xing Huai Zhenren's alchemy skills, one batch of Huanglong Pill materials can generally produce about thirty to forty Huanglong Pills, and thirty-six is ​​considered normal.

It is said that some top masters in the alchemy world can produce more than fifty Huanglong pills from one furnace, and their quality is better.

After assisting Xing Huai Zhenren in refining a furnace of Huanglong Pills, Zhao Qinghe felt a little tired, so he went back to the house to rest.

Zhao Qinghe, who is at the eighth level of Yuan Jing, only needs to sleep for half an hour to feel full of energy.

Half an hour later, Zhao Qinghe woke up and a servant told him that Hua Wuque had come and brought two spiritual creatures.

Zhao Qinghe looked at the particularly docile fire rats and black deer in the cage, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

Carrying the cage, Zhao Qinghe went straight to find his master, Xing Huai Zhenren.

Xing Huai Zhenren had just finished refining a batch of pills and was drinking spiritual tea in the bamboo forest of Changchun Peak.

"Qinghe, now you are here, it's a good opportunity for you to accompany me for some tea. This is the spiritual tea that I asked my outer disciples to pick. It smells very good." Master Xinghuai seemed to be in a good mood.

"What are you holding in your hand?" Master Xinghuai noticed the cage in Zhao Qinghe's hand.

"Master, you know that I am greedy for food. I had someone bring these two spiritual creatures to me. But now, I think there is something wrong with these two spiritual creatures. Can you help me check if they have been poisoned or something?" Zhao Qinghe said bluntly.

Master Xinghuai frowned slightly. He knew his own character very well. He was very steady and would definitely not talk nonsense.

Someone on Changchun Peak actually poisoned his own disciple?

Xing Huai Zhenren became angry, took the cage from Zhao Qinghe and walked to the alchemy room.

After a while, Xing Huai came out of the alchemy room and came to Zhao Qinghe with a serious face: "Qinghe, who gave you these two spiritual objects?"

Zhao Qinghe hesitated for a moment, then said, "It's Hua Wuque."

"This evil creature, I treated him well and accepted him as my registered disciple, but he actually wanted to harm you!" Master Xinghuai was furious.

"Master, are these two spiritual creatures really poisonous?" Zhao Qinghe asked.

Xing Huai Zhenren nodded, "Yes, it is the hemolytic poison pill that I taught you before. If you eat these two spiritual objects, your body will be paralyzed immediately, and you will die on the spot before I can save you."

"This evil creature, I taught him the blood-dissolving poison pill so that he could use it to harm his fellow disciples? I'm going to kill him with my own hands right now!"

Zhao Qinghe stopped Xinghuai and said, "Is there a misunderstanding? Wuque and I have known each other since we were outside the mountain gate. I don't want to believe that he would harm me!"

Xing Huai Zhenren sighed, patted Zhao Qinghe on the shoulder, and reassured him, "Why don't we go ask first and then kill him?"

In fact, Xing Huai already had the answer in his mind. This hemolytic poison pill was a poison pill he had recently developed. Apart from his two disciples Hua Qinghe and Hua Wuque, how would outsiders know about it?

Zhao Qinghe followed Xing Huai Zhenren silently. The poison in the spiritual object was definitely put by Hua Wuque. Now, Zhao Qinghe just wanted to see how deeply Hua Wuque was controlled.

This monster can not only take over the bodies of cultivators, making it impossible for even the Jindan cultivators to detect any abnormality, but it can also control other cultivators with strange means. Such means are absolutely terrifying.

I don't know how many people in the outer sect of Liuhua Sect are controlled by "Liu Changle" now.

"Liu Changle came to control Hua Wuque three months after I entered Changchun Peak. Perhaps Liu Changle's incredible control method has a similar time limit..."

Following behind Master Xinghuai, Zhao Qing walked along the riverside and soon arrived at Hua Wuque's cultivation room.

"Evil creature! You actually tried to poison your brother and harm your fellow disciples! Come out and die quickly!" Xinghuai Zhenren shouted.
