“Smack!”
The slap directly stunned Ma Elder.
He had completely not expected Qin Xuan to act so viciously.
“Pfft!”
Ma Elder spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, groaning in pain as he fell to the ground.
“Old geezer, I gave you face, didn’t I? You really thought you could deal with me!”
Qin Xuan’s expression was very displeased.
This Ma Elder actually truly believed he could control Qin Xuan with such methods.
There was no other explanation besides seeking death.
Qin Xuan would not indulge him.
“Cough, cough!”
Ma Elder continuously spat blood.
By this point, he was already filled with terror.
Nothing else, it was only now that he realized the immense gap between himself and Qin Xuan.
Putting everything else aside, that single slap just now had already explained everything.
The opponent’s strength completely crushed his, and this was unequivocally certain.
“No, don’t kill me!”
Realizing the disparity between himself and Qin Xuan, Ma Elder immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake.
Evidently, he had misjudged this time.
He, of course, knew that people often came here to join Qixia Sect as Disciples, merely to find the entrance to the ruins.
Therefore, he was very picky when selecting Disciples.
Only when he was certain that the person truly came from among Mortals would he accept them as a Disciple.
Relying on this keen sense, he had never made a mistake throughout all these years.
As for himself, he had, of course, also come for the ruins here.
As for this time, it was entirely because Qin Xuan had acted so convincingly like a Disciple who had emerged from among Mortals.
Poor family background, coming here to fight for a bit of Qi for his family and himself.
This kind of Disciple was also his favorite.
Without support, even if he killed them, those powerless and uninfluential Mortals would have no recourse.
Therefore, after confirming that Qin Xuan was just a Mortal, he immediately set his sights on Qin Xuan.
“Old geezer, first tell me, why do you want me to go down there, and why do you want me to carry a corpse out for you?”
Listening to these words, Ma Elder stammered open his mouth, hurriedly explaining his situation to Qin Xuan.
“It’s for Alchemy!”
“Alchemy? You’re lying to ghosts! Alchemy has always used Heaven And Earth Treasure; where does one use people for Alchemy?!”
Qin Xuan himself was a master of the Dao of Medicinal Pill, so he naturally scoffed at this claim.
He had never heard of such an Alchemy method.
“This is the Alchemy method of the Blood Heaven Three Medicinal Pills; it uses people or corpses to refine Medicinal Pills.”
Ma Elder said tremblingly, almost unable to resist kneeling down.
“What Blood Heaven Three Medicinal Pills? I’ve never heard of such a thing.”
Listening to these words, Qin Xuan immediately frowned.
He had never heard of this thing.
Putting everything else aside, even if there were countless Alchemy methods, using people or corpses for Alchemy was truly unique!
“My Lord, the Blood Heaven Three Medicinal Pills is an Alchemy method described in the Blood Extremes Scripture, which states that it uses people or corpses with extraordinary Aptitude to refine three types of Medicinal Pills: Heaven, Earth, and Human.”
“As long as one consumes the three types of Medicinal Pills—Heaven, Earth, and Human—one can absorb the Aptitude of the corpse or the person, thereby improving one’s own Aptitude.”
Using this method to improve one’s Aptitude...
Only then did Qin Xuan understand why this person wanted him to bring up a corpse; so that was the reason.
“Below here is the Sect from the former ruins; the Disciples who could join such a Sect must all have been exceptionally talented individuals. As long as I can obtain their corpses and refine them into Medicinal Pills, I can gain their talents!”
Speaking of this, a flicker of excitement flashed across Ma Elder’s face.
“Using this method to gain their talents?”
For some reason, Qin Xuan suddenly thought of the Refining God Cauldron.
The Refining God Cauldron also had the ability to absorb the essence of others.
It’s just that this thing was still different from refining the Blood Heaven Three Medicinal Pills.
Qin Xuan pondered, a glint flashing in his eyes.
“Where did you get this Blood Extremes Scripture? Don’t tell me it’s that booklet you gave me; I don’t believe it! The booklet you gave me is just your copy.”
Listening to Qin Xuan’s words, Ma Elder’s expression became very ugly.
Seeing Ma Elder hesitate, Qin Xuan coldly raised his hand.
“It doesn’t matter; once I kill you, I can still search for it in your qiankun ring.”
Hearing this, Ma Elder hurriedly looked up.
“I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you, I got it from a token.”
Saying this, Ma Elder took out a token from his qiankun ring, and after a moment of hesitation, reluctantly handed the token to Qin Xuan.
Qin Xuan snorted coldly, took the token, and glanced at it.
The front of the token depicted a huge skull, with a large character for “blood” written below it.
On the back of the token were three large characters.
“Blood Worshiping Sect!”
