Fury Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1749 - 1752: Super Awesome Pill

Just as Nalan Tianyu, in her snow-white military uniform and stunning mixed-race beauty, coldly watched the twin-tailed girl beside her clash with the many cultivators present over Shen Qiang, the phone in the study room behind the main hall of the Medicine King Inn rang."Sect Leader, it's Shen Qiang!" Seeing the phone number, the Great Elder's eyes lit up with excitement.

Sitting on the chair, glancing through the window at the Medicine King Valley Master outside, he inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief. After all, back then, if Zong Zijin hadn't threatened Qin Yurou, and if Shen Qiang's potential hadn't been obviously higher than Zong Zijin's, he wouldn't have ignored Zong Zijin, giving Shen Qiang the opportunity to make a move.

So he's been eagerly anticipating Shen Qiang. But with no news from Shen Qiang, he was nearly at his wits' end.

After all, he is the Sect Leader of Medicine King Valley.

And the Elixir Pill Conference of Medicine King Valley is a major event in the whole Cultivation World.

Based on past years, this grand event, which attracts the entire Cultivation World's attention, only ever sees participation from the Thirty-two Skillful Hands and Medicine King Valley.

Other alchemists trying to enter, almost impossible.

Because the inheritance of alchemy is not something just anyone can casually dabble in; mentorship, formulas, talent, financial resources, and connections are all indispensable.

Without good mentorship, not understanding the techniques of alchemy, relying solely on oneself, when would you ever grasp it? It's like being a barber; it looks simple, but without someone to teach you, you can't do it properly either.

And elixir pill formulas are the essence accumulated from generations of experience, because even with just a dish, if you don't know what seasonings to add, you can't expect to do it well.

But merely having mentorship and formulas, without talent, being thick-headed and unable to learn, is also useless.

However, even if one has mentorship, formulas, and talent, without immense financial resources and extensive connections, one can't stand firm in the alchemist industry. Without enough financial resources, you can't stockpile rare herbs for use when needed.

Without extensive connections, you can't quickly find the required drugs when in need.

Therefore, whether it's the Four Lesser Alchemists or the Thirty-two Skillful Hands, only those with all five complete can qualify to participate. For other ordinary alchemists trying to displace them, it's virtually impossible.

Because this is not like ordinary cultivation. A small sect or family that produces a Dao Fruit Stage super expert would undoubtedly see a surge in overall strength, and gathering many disciples afterward could see the sect's strength multiply in thirty years, not at all surprising.

But teaching alchemy is a game only super-rich people can play.

Talent, mindset, skills, a slight mistake, a ruined pill could mean a loss of millions or even tens of millions in materials, and even ordinary sects, let alone Medicine King Valley, can't bear such costs.

Therefore, in the diverse Cultivation World, the alchemist class is the most solidified. Ordinary alchemists can't move up no matter how hard they try, while the Thirty-two Skillful Hands and Four Lesser Alchemists can't fall no matter how reckless they get.

Yet, in such circumstances, Shen Qiang appeared.

Moreover, Shen Qiang possessed all five points, which made the Medicine King Valley Master uncomfortable due to the lack of news from Heshenghe.

So the moment he heard Shen Qiang call, the Valley Master's eyes brightened: "Answer it."

The Medicine King Valley succinctly ordered.

The Great Elder answered Shen Qiang's call, and the Medicine King Valley Master in the study immediately heard Shen Qiang say over the phone: "Oh, you're the organizer of the Medicine King Valley Elixir Pill conference, right? Hmm, I'm Shen Qiang. The elixir pill from Heshenghe that's up for evaluation hasn't been named yet; Cancer Cleanser might do, or Cancer Vanisher, or maybe Cancer Pill, Cancer Tablet..."

Hearing this, both the Medicine King Valley Great Elder and the Valley Master were stunned. Unable to contain his anger, the Valley Master exclaimed, "Nonsense, what kind of names are those for elixir pills!"

The voice on the phone paused for a few seconds and then said: "Then let's call it Life-saving Pill, Revive Pill, King Yan Dreads Pill, or Super Awesome Pill. Use whichever name you think is best, I don't care."

Instantly, not only the Medicine King Valley Great Elder was dumbfounded, but the Valley Master was also stunned for a full three seconds. But then, suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he eagerly asked, "Are you saying this is a new elixir pill you've formulated, hence no name?"

"Mhm, hahaha, yes, I like talking to you because you sound smart."

Hearing Shen Qiang's words, the Medicine King Valley Master couldn't help but laugh.

The Medicine King Valley is regarded as a Holy Land in the Cultivation World.

Without brains, one couldn't become the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley, so the Valley Master has always been very confident in himself, but Shen Qiang's way of praising made him inexplicably happy.

"Okay, we will choose one of those names you mentioned. Now, can you briefly say what your elixir pill treats? We will announce it shortly," the Medicine King Valley Master said with a smile.

"Ah, it treats cancer, liver cancer, stomach cancer, lung cancer, esophageal cancer—basically every kind of cancer; my elixir pill can handle it all with just one pill."

Instantly, the smile on the Medicine King Valley Master's face froze.

"What did you just say? Did I hear that wrong, or did you say that wrong? One elixir pill to handle all cancers? Impossible, such an elixir pill can't exist; no one can do that. We at Medicine King Valley, with dozens of masters, have researched for nearly a century, yet are still powerless against cancer; you can handle it alone?"

Hearing this, Shen Qiang excitedly said over the phone: "Oh, here we go again, saying that what you can't do, I also can't do, right? I don't have time to chit-chat with you all, I said it cures, so it cures. Just remember what I said."

These words were as if a large coconut was shoved into the Medicine King Valley Master's mouth, blocking all his rebuttals.

"Alright, but you must understand, if you're being mischievous or spouting nonsense, and it turns out to be false, not only will you be ridiculed by your fellow cultivators but also blacklisted by us at Medicine King Valley, and then you..."

"Where's all this bullshit coming from?" Shen Qiang rudely interrupted on the phone, saying, "I, Shen Qiang, never joke about elixir pills, that's it, I'm hanging up."

With that, the call abruptly ended.

Listening to the blind tone from the phone, the Medicine King Valley Master was momentarily stunned, then said, displeased: "Oh dear, this kid is really something."

Noting the Medicine King Valley Master was somewhat upset, the Great Elder pretended not to notice, adopting a business-as-usual demeanor, "Valley Master, I'll register Shen Qiang's elixir pill. Which name do you think is best?"

The Medicine King Valley Master, with a stern face, said in a deep voice: "Humph, this crude, rude guy who can't even come up with a decent name for an elixir pill, let's properly embarrass him; register it as Super Awesome Pill, that farcical name!"

"Understood, Valley Master!"
