Life and Death Alchemy

Zhang Chongtian was at the Martial Emperor Realm, and this palm strike carried the Power of Heaven and Earth. Jue Xin hadn't even reacted before being struck directly.

"Spare… me…" Jue Xin's eyes widened as he fell to the ground.

Qin Ming did not look at the dead Jue Xin, but instead focused his gaze on the space ring containing the divine artifact alchemy furnace, asking, "What is it, Zhang Chongtian? Are you going to renege on the bet after losing?"

"Are you not afraid of death?" Zhang Chongtian said, using voice transmission.

Voice transmission allowed the sound to be transmitted directly to another person's ears, avoiding being overheard by others.

"Oh! Is that the kind of character your Pill Alliance has? Threatening people after losing and refusing to honor the bet?" Qin Ming said loudly. Infusing his words with Spiritual Qi, he made sure everyone in the entire arena could hear him clearly.

"What? The Pill Alliance is actually refusing to hand over the bet? Their character is just too poor!"

"The Pill Alliance has always had poor character. They suppress the prices of spirit plants when buying, but sell their Medicinal Pills at exorbitant prices."

"This Pill Alliance is truly despicable. If they can't afford to lose, they shouldn't gamble. Since they dared to gamble, they should honor the loss."

Throughout the entire arena, all the Martial Artists watched Zhang Chongtian with composed amusement.

"You!" Zhang Chongtian's face flushed red, his lips trembling with rage. With a wave of his hand, he threw the space ring toward Qin Ming.

"That's a good boy!" After catching the space ring, Qin Ming probed inside and found the divine artifact alchemy furnace was indeed within.

"The competition is over, and it's time for me to leave. Thanks for your spirit plants." Qin Ming waved his hand and was just about to leave when a voice suddenly rang out.

"Wait."

Qin Ming turned his head to look. The one who had called out to him was the Pill Saint he had just competed against.

"Qin Ming, I want to compete with you again, a life-and-death Alchemy duel!" The elderly Pill Saint's eyebrows were raised, his eyes filled with Killing Intent as he glared at Qin Ming.

"A life-and-death Alchemy duel?" The entire arena of Martial Artists was stunned. They had assumed the competition was over and it was time to disperse, but they hadn't expected to suddenly hear the Pill Saint propose a life-and-death Alchemy duel.

Immediately, everyone looked at Qin Ming, this mysterious man.

"A life-and-death Alchemy duel?" Qin Ming was also a bit bewildered. It was just one lost match, was it really necessary?

Thinking further, he realized such a duel held absolutely no benefit for him, so he shook his head directly and said, "Not interested."

"I think you're just afraid." The elderly Pill Saint hadn't expected Qin Ming to refuse outright, so he immediately used a taunt.

His greatest strength was not in refining ordinary Medicinal Pills, but in refining poison pills.

That kid had just been lucky earlier, refining a spirit gathering pill of perfect quality and winning the competition by chance. If he himself displayed his true strength and utilized the divine artifact alchemy furnace, with a bit of luck, he might well be able to refine a perfect spirit gathering pill.

"What benefit is there in having a life-and-death Alchemy duel with you? Why should I compete with you?" Qin Ming shrugged and said.

"What do you mean, what benefit? This concerns an Alchemist's honor, which is supreme!" The elderly Pill Saint bristled with anger, glaring at Qin Ming.

"Honor? Not interested!" Qin Ming said. "Since you want honor so much, I'll be a good person to the end and gift this honor to you. I, Qin Ming, announce right here that your Alchemy strength is superior to mine; I concede defeat."

In the spectator stands, the Third Young Master of the You Family heard Qin Ming's words and curled his lips into a smile: "Interesting. I admire this Qin Ming's personality."

"What's the use of you admiring him? Don't you see the Royal Family wants to recruit him? Even if you think highly of him, he might not necessarily think highly of your You Family." Yang Quan patted the Third Young Master of the You Family's shoulder and smiled.

When mentioning the Royal Family, there was a shadow in his eyes.
