Chapter 69: Failed Again

"Ah!" Ji Wu's eyes were bloodshot as a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed from his mouth.

Thinking that the competition was still ongoing, Ji Wu forcefully swallowed the remaining blood.

Walking to the area where the spirit plants were placed, Ji Wu suppressed his turbulent Mental State and began to carefully select the spirit plants.

"It seems Ji Wu's Mental State has been affected; the chances of Qin Ming winning the duel have increased."

Upon seeing Ji Wu spit out that blood, Qin Father naturally knew it wasn't caused by poison from a Medicinal Pill, but rather Ji Wu's extreme anger causing his blood to flow in reverse.

"Father, is Brother going to win?"

Seeing Ji Wu spit blood, Qin Qing was also overjoyed.

"Of course!"

It wasn't Qin Father who answered Qin Qing, but Elder Qing who had suddenly appeared.

"Elder Qing, you've come?"

Qin Father turned around and looked at Elder Qing with pleasant surprise.

Elder Qing nodded and said with a smile:

"Actually, you don't need to worry at all. Qin Ming's Cultivation Technique is unique, and he has reached the Alchemist Realm, so this is foolproof for him."

"An Alchemist!" Qin Father was pleasantly surprised, then immediately thought of something and whispered:

"Elder Qing, has Qin Ming really reached the Alchemist Realm?"

Elder Qing's mouth twitched, but he forced himself to hold back and said:

"Yes, he is an Alchemist, he reached it today!"

Qin Ming had truly gone to great lengths. To ensure his father would no longer worry, he revealed a bit of his Talent, using Elder Qing's mouth to convey this news to Qin Father.

"Has Brother really reached the Alchemist level? Does that mean Brother's Alchemy ability is even stronger now!"

Qin Qing asked curiously.

"Yes!"

Patting Qin Qing's little head, Qin Yuan said with a smile.

Qin Qing revealed her two little fangs and said happily:

"Does that mean the candy beans Brother makes in the future will be even tastier!"

candy beans?

Elder Qing had black lines all over his forehead; perhaps Qin Ming was the only person in the world who could treat a Medicinal Pill like candy!

Even though he was a Pill King, it took him two hours to refine a qi gathering pill, and he only produced ten of them.

It was nothing like Qin Ming, who could modify a Pill Formula and create pills at will, just like the unranked Medicinal Pill Qin Ming had just refined.

He probably created it on the spot.

On the dueling arena, Ji Wu began refining a Medicinal Pill once again. This time, he set aside all his emotions and focused solely on refining a poison pill.

Whether it was bad luck or his Alchemy skills were not up to par, in the end, this batch of pills also failed.

Looking at the discarded Medicinal Pill inside, Ji Wu felt like crying but had no tears.

Alchemy naturally had a high failure rate, but to fail in such an important duel…

There was only a quarter of an hour left in the duel, so clearly, he had no time to continue refining pills.

The referee looked at Ji Wu, walked to his side, and asked:

"Ji Wu, there is only a quarter of an hour left in the competition. Do you still want to continue Alchemy?"

The referee asked only because he saw Ji Wu standing there for a long time without moving.

Ji Wu shook his head.

"Then let us begin exchanging the Medicinal Pills."

Ji Wu hadn't refined any Medicinal Pill, so naturally, he couldn't give Qin Ming a poison pill to eat.

Qin Ming held the huge Medicinal Pill he had refined in both hands and walked up to Ji Wu:

"Eat!"

Looking at the Medicinal Pill in front of him, Ji Wu felt like dying.

The memory of the Medicinal Pill he had just eaten was still fresh. The pill in front of him didn't look like anything good at all; it might be even stranger than the previous one.

However, this was a duel; it was either death or eat.

Even if Ji Wu didn't want to eat it, he had to.

Helplessly, Ji Wu took the Medicinal Pill handed over by Qin Ming and began to bite into it.

The Medicinal Pill was very large; Ji Wu had to take many bites to finish it.

Originally, he thought this Medicinal Pill would be like the previous one, with a strange taste, but who would have thought that this pill…
