“You… how did you…”
Feng Changge’s pupils shrank. He was confused at first, then he became frightened.
Xu Ning touched his wound.
The spot where the thunder blade seal had pierced his body had been completely healed. Only his damaged clothes and some blood stains could prove that Xu Ning had indeed been injured just now.
Xu Ning had already noticed Feng Changge’s murderous intent.
Thus, Xu Ning was ready for the sneak attack.
When the thunder blade pierced through his chest, under Xu Ning’s deliberate guidance and resistance, it did not cause any attribute damage to Xu Ning. Moreover, it also avoided his heart, leaving only his chest and back injured.
With this kind of minor injury, after activating the Flame Breath Bone Sutra, Xu Ning quickly recovered.
“Surprised?”
Xu Ning wiped his face with his true qi, returning to his original appearance.
“You are indeed a Demon Sect martial artist. You are ruthless and decisive. You even killed your deputy sect master without hesitation.”
Xu Ning felt that Feng Changge’s methods were ruthless.
Feng Changge obviously didn’t notice the problem with Huang Zongshao and Xiang Nanchun, but in order to protect the pill formula and refining method of the Demon Blood Great Pill, he still killed the two.
“Who are you!”
Feng Changge felt a little confused.
How did Xiang Nanchun’s follower suddenly become another person?
Xu Ning smiled and said, “Shouldn’t you thank me? If it weren’t for me, this Demon Blood Great Pill wouldn’t have been successfully refined.”
Feng Changge’s brain was buzzing.
Soon, he reacted, reaching out his hand and pointing at Xu Ning with a trembling finger. “The Demon Blood Great Pill, did you do something?”
“Do something?”
Xu Ning pretended to think. “Maybe, I just put some random materials in the Demon Blood Great Pill. The materials won’t affect the medicinal properties of the Demon Blood Great Pill, it will only just extend the process of the demon blood transformation.”
Prior to this, Xu Ning had watched Xiang Nanchun refine the Demon Blood Great Pill time and time again, and after his failures, he sorted out the medicinal materials and observed the changes in the medicinal properties. With his deep knowledge of medicinal pills, he had already figured out the refining principle of the Demon Blood Great Pill, as well as its effects and process.
After understanding everything, Xu Ning mixed some medicinal powder into it according to his knowledge of medicinal pills.
The mixed medicinal powder was not poisonous, but it could change the effect of the Demon Blood Great Pill on the human body, delaying the process of the demon blood transformation.
Feng Changge finally realized that the young man in front of him was also a powerful alchemist.
Moreover, according to him, this Demon Blood Great Pill seemed to have been refined successfully with his help.
“Are you Xiang Nanchun’s assistant alchemist or not?”
Feng Changge still wanted to know the truth.
“Yes or no, it’s meaningless.”
Xu Ning walked in front of Feng Changge step by step. “I just want to know where the mystic realm you visited recently is.”
Feng Changge was taken aback, then he laughed wildly.
“You spent so much effort just to find out the mystic realm?”
Feng Changge’s expression was ruthless. “But why should I tell you?”
At this moment, Feng Changge recognized the reality he was in.
Now that his true qi and attribute power had been dispersed, he was unable to fight against this person.
If he wanted to live, he had to preserve his value.
Once he revealed the location of the mystic realm, he would lose his value and be killed.
“I advise you to say it quickly, otherwise you will suffer unnecessary pain.”
Faced with Feng Changge’s bloody hands, Xu Ning showed no mercy.
“Pain?”
Feng Changge smiled. “I have been in State Jifeng for decades, what haven’t I experienced? Physical pain is nothing to me anymore.”
“You forgot that I am an alchemist.”
Xu Ning’s eyes narrowed. “Do you know of a pill called the Truth Pill?”
“You want to use the Truth Pill to force me to reveal my secrets?”
Feng Changge laughed and didn’t care at all. As a martial artist of the demonic path, he did everything to the extreme. Using the Truth Pill to trick others was something he often did in the past.
Therefore, Feng Changge was very familiar with the Truth Pill.
“Although the Truth Pill is good, it depends on who you are using it on.”
Feng Changge was fearless. “The prerequisite for using the Truth Pill is extremely harsh. Only by tormenting the mental state of the target and forcing them to lose all rationality can the effects of the Truth Pill be displayed.”
“You can deal with those sect disciples with shallow temperaments and torture them, and maybe it will have some effect. But for me, it won’t work at all. The martial arts will of us demonic cultivators is as solid as a rock, indestructible if I do say so myself. With just you alone, you can’t shake my mind.”
Feng Changge felt like he was in control of Xu Ning.
Feng Changge slowly felt the changes in his body.
His blood began to have a burning feeling.
This was the sign that the demon blood was about to be created.
‘This person in front of me has only delayed the time needed for the Demon Blood Great Pill to create the demon blood. He didn’t completely change its medicinal properties. As long as I delay enough time, I can complete the creation of the demon blood and advance to the dao realm!’
His body began to change, but Feng Changge’s expression remained unchanged. He continued to pretend to be unafraid of death.
‘When I advance to the dao realm, I will definitely cut this person into pieces!’
Feng Changge suppressed his hatred.
Xu Ning looked at Feng Changge and shook his head.
He had already noticed the changes in Feng Changge’s body.
Of course, Xu Ning would not give Feng Changge enough time to create the demon blood.
“Enough nonsense.”
Xu Ning took out two pills, one black and one blue.
He tapped Feng Changge’s chest and put the black pill into Feng Changge’s mouth, then forcing him to swallow it.
“It’s useless for you to give me Truth Pills like this.”
Feng Changge was not afraid at all.
“You didn’t see it clearly, the pill I gave you just now was not a Truth Pill, but a Heart Demon Pill.”
Xu Ning smiled.
“Heart Demon Pill, what is that?”
This was the first time Feng Changge had heard of this pill.
The name of this pill sounded more like a demonic pill.
“A pill to tempt your inner demon.”
Xu Ning replied briefly.
This Heart Demon Pill was an extremely unorthodox pill, and it was not normally used.
If he hadn’t made ample preparations before coming to the Phantom Blood Sect, Xu Ning wouldn’t have refined it.
If the person who swallowed it had a strong inner demon in their heart, after eating a Heart Demon Pill, it would trigger the negative emotions in their heart, causing them to lose their rationality, completely collapse mentally, and might even cause them to be unconscious.
Generally speaking, the negative emotions in the hearts of ordinary martial artists and martial artists were limited. Even if they ate a Heart Demon Pill, it would at most affect their mental state.
If someone with a pure mind took it, it might not even have any effect.
However, Feng Changge was a powerful demonic path martial artist. Although he had experienced many hardships and had a strong character, the negative emotions he had accumulated over the years were terrifying.
Feng Changge also realized that something was wrong.
Sure enough, Feng Changge felt that he was hallucinating.
People who had been killed by him, even people he had forgotten, kept appearing in front of him.
The figures turned into smoke before condensing into human faces. They struggled, roared, and screamed. They rushed in front of him and began to bite him.
“Get lost!”
Feng Changge tried his best to disperse them, but it was useless.
More and more smoke faces rushed up and soon drowned him. For a moment, Feng Changge couldn’t differentiate between the mental pain and the physical pain.
Xu Ning stood aside and watched Feng Changge struggle. ‘This Heart Demon Pill is quite useful against Demon Sect martial artists…’
However, refining a Heart Demon Pill was extremely troublesome, and the materials were difficult to find.
Moreover, if someone practiced a mental technique, they could resist the effects of the Heart Demon Pill.
This was why Heart Demon Pills were relatively unpopular, and not many people knew about them.
“Ahhh!”
Feng Changge began to scream.
Although Xu Ning didn’t know what he saw, he could feel his despair.
Pfft!
Suddenly, Feng Changge spat out another mouthful of blood.
He could have slowly created the demon blood, but after his mental state collapsed, Feng Changge’s creation of the demon blood failed.
“I want to advance to the dao realm and kill all of you!”
Feng Changge began to talk nonsense.
Finally, after fifteen minutes, Feng Changge completely lost control of his mind.
Xu Ning knew that the time was right, so he stuffed the Truth Pill into Feng Changge’s mouth.
After eating the Truth Pill, Feng Changge was completely quiet and his eyes were blank.
“Feng Changge, let me ask you, where is the mystic realm where you obtained the pill recipe for the Demon Blood Great Pill?”
Xu Ning asked the crucial question.
“The mystic realm is in Yunfeng Lake, State Chungu.”
Feng Changge was in a daze. His expression was stiff and his words were mechanical.
“Yunfeng Lake, State Chungu…”
Xu Ning remembered this place.
“What secrets are there in that mystic realm? What experiences did you go through there? What did you obtain, and where did you hide them?”
Xu Ning threw out all the questions he had.
Feng Changge paused for a moment before answering Xu Ning’s questions one by one.
Xu Ning listened and remembered them one by one.
After nearly an hour, Xu Ning asked all the details he wanted to know and obtained all the answers he wanted.
‘There should be nothing left to ask…’
After confirming that Feng Changge was useless, Xu Ning waved his hand and a stream of true qi pierced his head.
The current Feng Changge was only in the mortal realm, so he couldn’t defend against Xu Ning’s attack.
‘Feng Changge has been dealt with. Next, I will plunder everything he has obtained from the mystic realm, as well as his personal belongings.’
After Xu Ning tidied up the scene, he began to search for Feng Changge’s storage room.
Soon, Xu Ning found the location and began to search for the resources he needed.
‘There are too few medicinal pills and spirit medicine, but it’s better than nothing!’
Xu Ning obtained more than 20,000 units of energy from the search.
