These five new elixirs are all based on the Extraordinary Phenomenon Elixir, with some additional ingredients added. Of course, these ingredients were simulated by the Mirror God based on descriptions in its own database. As for whether this is true, only God knows.
Holding the Earth Immortal Pill in his hand, Xiao Wenbing examined it over and over for a long time, then frowned and said, "Mirror God, are you sure you can take all five of these pills?"
"Of course, trust me."
“I really want to believe you, but…” Xiao Wenbing squeezed the elixir in his hand and said, “But, I feel that this thing doesn’t seem like a pill, but rather like an object.”
"What is that?"
"National sport."
"What?"
Xiao Wenbing slammed the elixir in his hand onto the table. The elixir landed with a crisp "clang," then bounced high into the air. As the force of the bounce weakened, it fell back down from its highest point and made another intimate contact with the table.
After a series of thumps, the pill finally quieted down.
Xiao Wenbing manipulated his hand, took the elixir in his hand, and said solemnly, "Mirror God, I've noticed that apart from its size, this elixir is exactly the same shape as a ping-pong ball."
"Ah...is that so?" Mirror God stared wide-eyed, then hesitated before speaking.
“Exactly. I guarantee it.” Xiao Wenbing said confidently, then asked, “Mirror God, are you sure there’s such a resilient elixir in the world?”
"Hmm..." Mirror God's eyes darted around a few times, seemingly unable to make sense of it, and he simply shut up.
Xiao Wenbing shook his head helplessly and said, "In my opinion, this is probably a failed work."
The Mirror God snorted and said, "What's there to be afraid of in failure? Don't you always say that failure is the mother of success? We still have four more plans. Come on, build them all!"
"Okay, hopefully one of the next few will be successful."
He concentrated and inhaled deeply, and ripples appeared in the void once again.
A moment later, a scream suddenly came from inside the room. The door opened, and Xiao Wenbing rushed out like lightning. Then, an extremely strong stench wafted from the room.
Xiao Wenbing's status was extraordinary; he was the leader of these more than ten thousand newly promoted immortals. This time, he had won the respect of everyone in the Xuanji Sect for refining the weapon for Zi Liao. Therefore, two Golden Core level disciples were specially arranged to serve him at all times outside this room.
These two young men were clever enough to snag this lucrative job. You see, serving an immortal, especially a master of artifact crafting, requires meticulous service and brings them joy; even a simple gift would be enough to make them ecstatic.
Therefore, the two disciples had been waiting at the door. When they saw Xiao Wenbing suddenly appear, they hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. However, as soon as they got to the immortal's side, they smelled an extremely foul odor.
Looking at the two people in front of him, Xiao Wenbing pinched his nose and asked, "What are you doing here?"
The two men were dizzy from the stench emanating from the room, but with such a golden opportunity before them, they had no choice but to muster their strength and say, "Senior, we are here to serve you on orders."
"Okay, fine. I'll leave this place to you guys to clean up. And while you're at it, help me find another room." Xiao Wenbing waved his sleeve and strode away, leaving the two behind him to exchange a glance before hurriedly following. As for cleaning up here, he'd leave that to the other brothers.
The inner gate of Xuanji Sect is extremely large. Not only can you change rooms, but you can even cross a mountain and stay in another place without any problem.
The two men led Xiao Wenbing to another luxury villa several miles away before taking their leave.
After confirming that no one was around, Xiao Wenbing summoned the Mirror God and angrily said, "Mirror God, what kind of thing did you design? It stinks horribly!"
"Is that so?" Mirror God considered for a moment, then said, "Perhaps it's because good medicine tastes bitter. You'll know the effect after taking it once."
"Take it?" Xiao Wenbing shook his head firmly and said seriously, "No, that's impossible. I bet no one would take such a thing."
The Mirror God shrugged helplessly and said, "Alright, since this one won't work either, let's move on to the next one."
A ripple appeared once more in the void.
After a moment, Xiao Wenbing opened his eyes and let out a soft "Eh," looking at his hand, which was completely blank.
"Did you fail to create it?" Mirror God asked curiously.
"No, I did it."
"It worked?" Mirror God looked around for a while, then asked, "Where's the stuff?"
"In my hands."
"Nonsense. Who are you trying to fool? You don't have a fart in your hand."
"Really? Smell it."
"roll……"
"Really, come and pinch it."
"..."
After a long while, the Mirror God, still skeptical, withdrew his massive energy hand and exclaimed in surprise, "This pill is actually transparent! How is that possible?"
Xiao Wenbing said with a wry smile, "If only I had known, I wouldn't want to try such a pill. What do you suggest we do?"
The Mirror God considered for a moment, then a mischievous smile suddenly flashed in his eyes: "What do you think of this?"
"Yes, we can give it a try." Xiao Wenbing laughed heartily, completely agreeing with Mirror God's suggestion.
"Alright, two more pills left, let's finish quickly."
Xiao Wenbing nodded repeatedly, saying, "That's right, finish it quickly, I also want to see what kind of medicinal effects the Earth Immortal Pill will have after our improvements."
The fourth attempt at manufacturing the pill did not seem to go as smoothly as the first three. Xiao Wenbing mobilized all his energy and it took half an hour to finally produce the pill.
Wiping the cold sweat from his brow, Xiao Wenbing said, "Mirror God, your pill design is far too complex. If it weren't for me, no one else could have refined it for you."
"Alright. I know you're very capable." The Mirror God wrapped the small pill in his energy hand, a broad smile on his face, clearly very satisfied with his meticulous plan.
This was a brightly colored pill, smooth and translucent, with a faint fragrance. It was a world apart from the foul stench of the second type of pill.
Looking at the most normal-looking sky-blue elixir among all the pills, Xiao Wenbing said, "I didn't expect that you would finally design a pill that looks normal."
The Mirror God gave him a disapproving look and said, "What are you talking about? The pills I designed are all extremely useful. Here..." It shoved the pill into Xiao Wenbing's hand and said, "Why don't you try it and see what happens after you take this pill?"
Xiao Wenbing shuddered. The previous three failures had had a huge impact on him, so even now, facing this seemingly normal elixir, he hesitated.
"Come on, come on," the Mirror God kept urging from the side.
"Mirror God, can you tell me why this pill is so difficult to manufacture, and what its ingredients are?"
"Many ingredients."
"What's the meaning?"
"According to my records, there are over 100 million raw materials in the Immortal Realm that you, at your current level, can create out of thin air..."
"There are over a hundred million components here?" Xiao Wenbing was shocked and interrupted it in surprise.
"Of course not. If there were over a hundred million varieties, you wouldn't even be able to manufacture them. I only selected a few."
"That's..." Xiao Wenbing breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "About how much?"
"Not much, around ten or twenty thousand."
Xiao Wenbing froze. He asked cautiously, "You mean, this is a hodgepodge of one or two thousand ingredients?"
"That's right. Eat it."
Thank you, I appreciate it.
"..."
The void rippled for the fifth time, and the final elixir finally appeared.
Looking at the crystal-clear pill in his hand, which resembled a glass bead, Xiao Wenbing frowned, but finally said with certainty, "Mirror God, I recognize this pill."
"Huh? Could it be that someone designed this before me?"
"Yes, I've taken this pill many times before, I definitely won't mistake it."
"Oh. What kind of elixir is this?"
"This is a Lesser Rejuvenation Pill."
"Minor Rejuvenation Pill? Is it famous?"
"Yes, it's very famous. It's a very useful elixir."
"Really? I never thought I'd finally designed such a useful elixir."
Xiao Wenbing's face held a half-smile as he said calmly, "Mirror God, I forgot to tell you something."
"What?"
"This Lesser Rejuvenation Pill is not an Earthly Immortal Pill from the Celestial Realm."
"Not the Immortal Realm? Where is it then?"
"It's a place used in the cultivation world to replenish spiritual energy."
Volume 18, Chapter 9: Millennium Wine
------------------------
I am deeply grateful for Xiao Xianyou's hard work over the past month. I would like to share this cup of "Millennial Wine" with all my friends.
There was a large, round table with a small wine jar in the center.
The seven immortals who remained at the Xuanji Sect's stronghold, along with the current sect leader Mu Puling, hosted a banquet for the newly promoted immortals, led by Xiao Wenbing.
Of course, because Xiao Wenbing's side had too many people, only ten people actually showed up at the venue.
Xiao Wenbing, Feng, and Zhang Ernu were naturally indispensable. In addition, there were five representatives from the Yan Realm with the highest cultivation level, led by Elder Yan, and one representative from the Cultivation Realm.
As for the last spot, it naturally belongs to Zhu Bajie, who displayed his divine power by taking on six opponents a few days ago.
According to the rules of the Immortal Realm, the immortal artifacts one possesses are considered part of one's strength. Therefore, in this army of ten thousand people, apart from the four veteran immortals Xiao Wenbing, Feng, Zhang Ernu, and Kuini, even Elder Yan and others are far from being their match. Such figures should naturally be brought to the forefront to make their appearance.
Xiao Wenbing and the others were deeply moved as they looked at the crystal-clear, thousand-year-old wine in the cup.
Once one cultivates to the realm of immortals, one naturally no longer needs to go through the trouble of eating. However, wines made using secret methods over thousands of years are something that many immortals are eager to obtain.
It's not just about the taste; these specially prepared wines offer immense benefits to those who cultivate immortality. Some immortal wines can even enhance the concentration or purity of immortal energy, while others can restore physical strength and spiritual energy—in short, a wide variety. Each has its own strengths.
Therefore, do not underestimate this mere jar of millennium-old elixir; its value is no less than that of an ordinary elixir.
However, only a powerful sect like Xuanji Sect, or an immortal who has lived for over ten thousand years, could possibly store a super-fine wine like Millennium Wine.
A faint energy fluctuation swirled in the wine a few times, and Xiao Wenbing had already copied the entire Millennium Wine into his mind.
