C28 Poison Dragon Pill.

Azure Flame Pill King had never imagined someone could refine pills in the void. Today was truly enlightening.

"How is it?" Qin Ming's tone was casual as he inquired.

Staring at Qin Ming in disbelief, Azure Flame Pill King's face remained etched with shock. He was convinced that this young man was not an envoy of his disciple. No matter his disciple's influence, he couldn't possibly command this youth.

Azure Flame Pill King was uncertain whether the young man had attained God Level Alchemist status, but of one thing he was certain: the youth's pill-refining prowess was immeasurable. His alchemic skill must be at least that of a Pill Emperor, if not a Pill Saint.

What had become of the world? Was it the world that had gone mad, or was it him?

How young was this man to possess such formidable alchemy skills?

"Did you truly come here just to wait for me?" Azure Flame Pill King was still struggling to accept it.

Qin Ming nodded, then elaborated, "Now you should believe that you hold no value to me. Anything you can do, I can do as well. Your Pill King Realm alchemy skills are beneath me. Moreover, your dantian is damaged, and you've been poisoned."

"Poisoned? Impossible! As a Pill King Realm alchemist, I'm extremely sensitive to poisons. How could I possibly be poisoned?" Azure Flame Pill King protested vehemently.

He was a Pill King Realm Pill Master; the idea of him being poisoned was unfathomable.

"What if it were the colorless, odorless Poison Dragon Pill?" Qin Ming's soft-spoken words struck Azure Flame Pill King like a clap of thunder.

The Poison Dragon Pill, a slow-acting poison, was undetectable until it was too late for any remedy to work.

"Impossible. How could I be afflicted by the Poison Dragon Pill? And how did you discern that I had been poisoned?" Qing Yan demanded, his eyes wide with incredulity.

Approaching Qing Yan, Qin Ming channeled Spiritual Energy and gently laid his hand on Qing Yan's chest. Azure Flame Pill King thought to evade but found himself immobilized. As he reeled from the shock, a soothing Spiritual Energy flowed from Qin Ming's palm.

Azure Flame Pill King expelled a mouthful of black blood, his complexion turning ghastly. The black blood scorched the ground like molten lava, emitting a foul stench.

"This is the pill poison within you. I've drawn it out with my internal energy, allowing you to feel its presence," Qin Ming explained, his face clouded with anger.

"I truly am poisoned." Witnessing the black blood, Azure Flame Pill King had to concede to the truth. The poison's potency was indeed consistent with that of Grade Seven Pills. Only a Grade Seven Poison Pill could poison a Pill King Realm master like him without a trace or sensation.

"Now do you believe that I came specifically for you, harboring no malice?" Qin Ming's gaze softened as he addressed Azure Flame Pill King, his former master.

Overcome with emotion, Qing Yan was now convinced of the young man's benign intent. The display of power had revealed the youth's superior mastery in the Pill Tao, far beyond his own.

"Master Qin, take me on as your disciple, please!"

The Azure Flame Pill King, renowned across the continent for his astonishing feats, dropped to one knee and earnestly implored Qin Ming.
