Death… And Me Chapter 450 - Not Guaranteed

Chapter 450 - Not Guaranteed

After Biol Guan had finished his breakthrough in the Alchemist Guild, he went to the side where the other cultivators who had already taken their pills were waiting. As for the ones who haven't gotten a pill yet, they grew excited and jealous at the same time. They didn't expect that a Neutral Pill would be even better than an Elemental Pill.

"s.h.i.+t. Why didn't I take it?"

"That youngster made two batches, so we still might get to use his second one."

"The chances are low, but they are there."

"Perhaps I should ask Biol for three pills as well."

However, Werxa went in front of those Foundation Establishment cultivators before saying.

"Alright, then. Since you guys didn't want to take a pill a while ago, there is no need to give you more batches. You can go home. I already arranged for my guild to bring another group here."

"What?!"

All of them were taken aback.

"Wait, wait a second! You can't do that!"

"Right! We were just afraid that the pills wouldn't work!"

"It's not like we refused his pill with bad intentions!"

However, a powerful Spiritual Pressure a.s.saulted them right after. In an instant, all of them fell to their knees while gasping for air.

"As I said, leave. Didn't you hear me? I don't mind sending your corpses out either."

Werxa was the Guild Leader, as well as a Heaven Peak-Level alchemist. Obviously, his cultivation had to be on par with it. That meant Werxa was at least in the Saint Realm. All those Foundation Establishment cultivators began to tremble in fear as they immediately rushed out. There was no way they would stick around after such a warning. With Werxa's status, even if he killed them all, no one would complain later.

After those guys left, Werxa looked back at the partic.i.p.ants of the exam with a smile.

"There is no need to worry. With the size of the capital and how many people live here, it won't take more than one or two hours to find replacements. Just wait patiently, and your Cross-Realm Pills will be tested."

The partic.i.p.ants came to understand that Werxa wasn't the type you could mess in any circ.u.mstance.

Roan, on the other hand, commended Werxa's actions in his head. Of course, it wasn't because he was the one who made the Neutral Pills, but because he would have done the same. Perhaps he would have cut a person's head to make an example.

Sure enough, the guild brought another batch of Peak Foundation Establishment cultivators quite sometime later. All of them had been in that stage for at least 30 years too.

Oligan then nodded as he announced.

"Let's continue the test."

"The next batch of pills are Fire Elemental Pills made by Lita Xue. There is a total of seven pills inside, and this is her first batch."

Roan once again looked at the pills made by the girl with Old Worm.

'How many do you think she needs?'

Old Worm pondered.

'I was watching her during the concoction phase. If I'm not wrong, she should be able to pull a breakthrough with four or five pills. Her pills are really decent.'

Roan nodded as he kept observing. Sometime later, another burst of Spiritual Energy came from the testing cultivator as his cultivation increased at high speeds. Eventually, it stabilized at the Initial Stage of the Core Formation Realm.

"Lita Xue, Four Pills to get a breakthrough."

Old Worm was spot on. Lita Xue's pills really were that good to only need four of them.

Cluhe Sol looked at that and once again narrowed his eyes. Nevertheless, he quickly came back to normal. He believed that he could do at least the same with his next two batches.

Surprisingly, he was only counting Lita Xue this time. As hard as it was for him to accept Roan's skills, he had to admit that they were in two different leagues. He already dropped any idea he had about getting the first place anymore. He chose a bad time to take the exam.

There were no other surprises in the end. Although that was only Roan's first batch, it still consolidated its position in the first place since he was the only one to achieve a breakthrough with three pills. Well, more than half of the 71 first tests ended in failure, to begin with. In the end, only 30 breakthroughs were achieved.

"No point in talking about positions at this moment, so let's start the next batch straight away."

This time, the tests went even quicker. After all, the majority was only able to create a single batch of Cross-Realm Pills. That being said, many of the partic.i.p.ants didn't have a second one to be tested.

As one could expect, all eyes were on Roan's Pills. He said that the first batch was not that good, so they wanted to see how good his second batch would be.

This time, the new Foundation Establishment cultivators didn't refuse the Neutral Pills. It was not that they believed in Roan, but because they saw his position as the first ranked alchemist in this phase. Since he was in the first position before they arrived, it meant that his neutral pills must be good.

The lucky one was quickly chosen by Oligan as he took Roan's pills. The first pill did the same thing as it did with Biol Guan. The Dark Element quickly destroyed all the unsatisfactory parts of the guy's meridians while the Light Element worked with the pill's medicinal properties to heal it.

However, much more Spiritual Energy, Medicinal Properties, and Dark and Light Elements remained this time. The Dark and Light quickly dissipated as the rest went straight to the guy's Dantian. The guy felt delighted with that sensation and immediately pushed for a breakthrough. Unfortunately, one pill was not enough, so he had to take a second.

*Boom!*

Almost as soon as the second pill took effect, a burst of Spiritual Energy came forward. Sure enough, Roan's next batch was even better, allowing a breakthrough with just two pills.

Nevertheless, Roan couldn't help but sigh.

'This is my limit without the right elements. The others still have a chance of getting a breakthrough with a single pill since they have the right elemental type pills. In my case, no one has Light or Dark Element Affinity among those Foundation Establishment people, so Neutral is all I can do. I can't achieve a single pill breakthrough with my actual level.'

Roan quickly glanced at Lita Xue. If there was someone who could surpa.s.s his achievement, it would be that girl.
