Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

During this period of time, everyone was deliberately avoiding or trying to forget about alchemy, and no one even dared to mention it.

But what is meant to come will eventually come.

However, the scene of crying and making a fuss that Li Zhi imagined did not appear unexpectedly.

The six people who were selected had already prepared themselves mentally. When they heard Li Zhi tell them that he would make pills tonight, they all behaved calmly. On the contrary, they could see that Li Zhi was not in a good mood, so they comforted him instead.

Li Zhi was speechless and didn't say anything more. All he could do now was to make sufficient preparations and let these six people become the last batch to be sent into the alchemy furnace!

Sacrifice some people to save the majority!

In the evening, the guards brought the food and specially arranged six meals with richer dishes. This was specifically instructed by Li Zhi.

Li Zhi is now with Master Liu, so these guards naturally know that Li Zhi has a bright future and will not offend Li Zhi over these trivial matters.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Zhi arranged for the six of them to cleanse themselves like an emotionless robot. He fed each of them a bowl of potion, and then brought the medicinal materials needed for alchemy to the alchemy furnace.

The alchemy furnace in front of him was just as ancient and heavy as the first time he saw it.

Immortal Master Liu was already waiting here. He sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace with his eyes closed. When he heard Li Zhi coming, he opened his eyes and asked, "Are you all ready?"

Li Zhi nodded and responded.

Immortal Master Liu looked up at the sky, waved his hand, and the alchemy furnace opened with a bang.

"Please bring in the ingredients for the elixir!" Immortal Master Liu said in a low voice.

Li Zhi hurriedly asked the six people to enter the alchemy furnace. After the six people entered the alchemy furnace, Master Liu waved his hand again and the alchemy furnace closed.

"fire!"

Immortal Master Liu gave an order, and a blazing fire suddenly burst out from the bottom of the furnace.

The seals in his hand appeared, and Master Liu cast them on the alchemy furnace one by one. The flames under the furnace also changed in size as Master Liu cast the spell.

Immortal Master Liu's face was pale and solemn, with beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. It was obvious that refining the elixir was not as simple as it sounded.

"Put the herbs in here!" Immortal Master Liu shouted again.

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi did not dare to hesitate and immediately put the other medicinal materials into the furnace one by one in order.

"Hoo ho!"

The flames suddenly jumped up, illuminating the originally dark sky.

Then the flame gradually became smaller until it stabilized at a level that was neither too big nor too small.

Master Liu then stopped and wiped the sweat from his head with his sleeve.

Now all we have to do is wait until noon and perform the last set of seals.

Li Zhi quickly brought a cup of tea and handed it to Master Liu. After Master Liu took it, he said calmly, "What did you give them to eat?"

Li Zhi naturally knew that his little tricks could not be hidden from Master Liu, so he was not surprised or panicked when he heard it, and replied calmly: "I made a hallucinogenic and paralyzing potion for them to drink."

"Why do you do this? Alchemy is a matter of great importance. If this affects the completion and effectiveness of the elixir, what will you do?" Immortal Master Liu asked coldly. His originally pale face looked even more sinister under the light of the flames beside him.

Li Zhi lowered his head and whispered, "I know I was wrong. I was worried that their screams would interfere with your alchemy, so I made the decision without authorization. However, the herbs used are all warm in nature. I have checked and verified them one by one, and they will not affect the alchemy this time."

After taking a deep look at Li Zhi, Master Liu said nothing more. He turned his head and stared at the alchemy furnace silently.

Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and stood behind Master Liu with his head lowered.

The sun slowly rises from the horizon, and as time goes by, the sun gradually rises, moving slowly and steadily towards the center of the sky.

When the sun finally reaches the center of the sky, noon officially arrives.

At this moment, the sun is the strongest, and the blazing rays shine directly down, making people feel endless warmth and light. Everything on the earth is illuminated clearly, and all things are bathed in the sun, full of vitality.

This is the time of the day when the Yang energy is the most abundant.

Immortal Master Liu's face darkened and he sent hand seals towards the alchemy furnace.

The flame that was originally calm under the alchemy furnace suddenly erupted at this time. The flame spread from the bottom of the furnace to the entire furnace. The entire furnace was like being wrapped in a big fireball.

After Master Liu cast his last seal, he shouted, "Collect!"

The huge fireball did not extinguish, but instead poured into the alchemy furnace, as if it was being absorbed by the furnace.

Not long after, when all the flames were absorbed by the alchemy furnace, a smile finally appeared on Master Liu's sinister face.

Seeing this, Li Zhi hurriedly asked, "Is it done? Master!"

"After working hard for nearly half a year, I finally succeeded. I can finally give an explanation to Lord He." Master Liu laughed and waved his hand. Three brown pills flew out of the furnace.

Li Zhi took the jade box that he had prepared long ago and took it.

The surging pure yang energy, like a volcanic eruption, emanated from the three pills continuously like a tide.

This pure yang energy is so hot that it seems to be able to melt everything in the world. Even though most of it is now sealed in the pill, Li Zhi can still feel it.

I don't know how much effort was spent and how many people died for these three pills. Li Zhi sighed in his heart, but it was finally over. The Fuyang Pill had been refined, so that was the end of it.

Li Zhi closed the lid of the jade box, sealing the hot pure yang energy inside.

Master Liu brought Li Zhi to Lord He’s study.

Looking at the majestic old man in front of him, Li Zhi was a little dazed. A month ago, he also came here with others, but Mr. He's attitude towards him before was completely different from now.

"My Yongguo is saved! It is saved! This time it is all thanks to you and me, Master. When I send this elixir to the emperor, I will report your contribution to him!" Lord He said excitedly.

Immortal Master Liu waved his hand indifferently and said, "I am also a citizen of Yongguo. It is my duty to cure the emperor's illness and make elixirs."

After exchanging a few polite words with Lord He, Master Liu bid farewell to Lord He.

Li Zhi also took the opportunity to ask Lord He how he would deal with those people in the Dancai Room. Lord He said that he would give each of them a sum of money, enough for them to live.

Li Zhi didn't say anything more. When he returned to the alchemy room to pack up his things, Li Zhi also told the people in the alchemy room what Lord He had said.

Suddenly, everyone burst into tears. Finally, they didn't have to die.

Li Zhi did not disturb them. After packing up his things, he quietly left the room.

When passing by a well, Li Zhi suddenly stopped. After thinking for a while, he took out a copper coin from his arms and threw it into the well.

Afterwards, he came to Master Liu's room. When Master Liu saw Li Zhi coming, he asked, "Is everything ready?"

"There's nothing much to pack. I was alone when I came here." Li Zhi held a small package in one hand and a sword in the other.

Li Zhi looked around and asked, "Master, have you packed your things?"

Immortal Master Liu smiled, stuffed a small package into Li Zhi's arms, and said, "Here, you can help me hold it."

"Hey Master, you are a disciple of Xiaoyao Mountain after all. Don't you have something in the storage bag?" Li Zhi asked, holding the package that Master Liu stuffed over to him.

"Where do you get all these weird sayings?" Master Liu looked puzzled.

Li Zhi was speechless. He didn't even have the basic things. He had no choice but to carry Master Liu's package. Fortunately, Master Liu's package was not heavy.

After following Master Liu out of He Mansion, Li Zhi couldn't help but look back at He Mansion.

"What's wrong? Are you still reluctant to leave?" Master Liu joked.

Li Zhi chuckled: "I have good food and drink here every day. Now I have to leave, and I am really reluctant to leave."

"Then you stay here. I will leave first." Master Liu said and left on his own.

Seeing this, Li Zhi hurriedly ran up to catch up with Master Liu.

"Master, where are we going?"

"You are now also a disciple of Xiaoyao Mountain, so naturally I have to go back first and write down your name."

Master Liu's calm voice made Li Zhi very excited.

Xiaoyao Mountain!

Xiaoyao Mountain, one of the three major immortal gates!

I, Li Zhi, am here!
