Chapter 109: Tranquil Heart Pill
"Not bad!"
"Meng Yan is getting more and more adept in his pill forging technique!"
"Indeed! If he is able to identify a flaw in his pill forging method, I will twist my head off!"
Zhang Xuan noticed that the gazes of the other apothecaries were fixated on Meng Yan and they
nodded their head in approval in response to the display of his skills.
They were able to tell what the other party's pill forging method before and they had once used
it as well, so they weren't too unfamiliar with it.
This was also precisely the reason why it was harder to find flaws in it. Even they were unable
to see the slightest mistake in the other party's forging. Every movement of his strictly adhered
to the forging method without a single error in it.
"Guild Leader Ouyang, do you think that he will be able to see through the forging method and
the flaws in it?"
After bringing Zhang Xuan over, Wen Xue didn't leave immediately. At this instance, she was
standing behind Ouyang Cheng and she couldn't help but ask him the question.
She wasn't even an apprentice and thus, she was unable to see through the various intricacies of
pill forging. So, she could only place her expectation on this guild leader before her to explain
the situation to her.
"Flaws?" Ouyang Cheng shook his head, "To tell you the truth, Meng Yan's pill forging method
had been passed down for more than 300 years. It went through the hands of countless
individuals and even if there is an error in it, it would have long been corrected. Anyway, given
my level of standard, I am unable to see any errors in it!"
"Not even you are able to discern any flaws?"
Wen Xue covered her mouth in shock.
Ouyang Cheng was the most capable apothecary in Tianxuan Kingdom, reaching the
astounding level of the 1-star intermediate stage. If he was unable to discern anything, how
could Zhang Xuan, who had just become an apothecary apprentice, possibly tell anything from
"Alright, as expected of Apothecary Meng Yan. Not only was the pill formed, it even reached the
level of Satiation. Incredible!"
Looking at the pill in his palm, everyone couldn't help but be impressed.
Upon being forged successfully, the pills would assume different appearances depending on the
efficacy of its medicinal property. It could be classified into four tiers, namely Formation,
Satiation, Perfection, and Inscribed Pill.
It was already incredible for typical 1-star primary stage apothecaries to reach the level of
Formation when forging grade-1 pills. To reach the level of Satiation was already something
beyond what those of his level was capable of.
"Hmph, lad, I am already done forging my pills. So, what method did I just use and what flaws
are there in it!"
Meng Yan returned to his seat and looked at Zhang Xuan coldly.
Upon hearing his words, the gaze of the others focused on Zhang Xuan. They wanted to see
what kind of shocking words this arrogant lad would speak of.
Initially, they thought this lad would speak immediately. However, his eyes simply stared
forty-five degrees upward with a sorrowful expression on his face. He shook his head slowly
and sighed.
"Hurry up if you have something to say!"
Seeing this fellow still persisting on keeping up the act, Meng Yan clenched his fist and
smashed it on the table.
There weren't too many intense movements in it, as though it was a quiet stream, flowing
slowly and steadily down the mountains. As it fulfilled the concept of Tranquil Heart Pill, it was
easy for a pill to form using this method to forge it.
Given that he was able to tell that the pill forged was Tranquil Heart Pill, it wasn't that difficult
to infer that the method used was Ten Formulas of Tranquil Water.
"True, it doesn't mean much. However, it is a pity that you have warped the Ten Formulas of
Tranquil Water beyond recognition, causing it to lose the fundamental meaning behind it!"
Zhang Xuan flung his hand and said with a stern voice.
believe all of you should have seen the bad temper of Apothecary Meng Yan. He can be set off
easily with a single word. With rage in his heart, how can he possibly forge the Tranquil Heart
Pill which calms others?"
At which, Zhang Xuan slightly knocked on the table before Meng Yan.
A crack had appeared in the table after the latter's previous punch. At this moment, unable to
take the pressure any longer, it fell apart.
Upon the sight, everyone came to a realization.
His words were true. Pill forging was intricately linked to one's state of mind. It was
inappropriate and unsuitable for one to forge a Tranquil Heart Pill when under such rampaging
emotions.
"Of course, his fiery temper isn't sufficient to ruin the pill. The crux of the problem is that there
is killing intent within Apothecary Meng Yan right now. If I'm not wrong, you probably killed
someone this morning and you still bear resentment toward the person. Most probably, you
were betrayed by someone you trust. This resentment and killing intent have been infused into
the Tranquil Heart Pill when you were forging it. Even though only a sliver of it had slipped in,
to the cultivators who consume it, it could have disastrous aftereffects. It increases the
possibility of their cultivation going berserk exponentially. If so, it will result in fatal damage
onto their fundamentals!"
Zhang Xuan said.
"You... You..."
Meng Yan's body swayed. He looked at Zhang Xuan as though he was looking at a ghost and his
face immediately turned ghastly white.
