"Hui Legacy Clan: Snake-like yet horse-like, covered in scale armor, with four feet under its belly. Twelve major tendons, ninety-six minor tendons, aligning with the Minor Circulation Count..."
"Horned Demon Clan: Human-like in form, with prominent sharp horns. A single horn, harnessing the power of wind and thunder, invincible in courage..."
"Aberrant Eye Clan: A single eye grows in the brow, possesses three peculiar powers of stone petrification, space prohibition, and soul capture, also known as the Bizarre Eye Clan. It is said to be the proliferated bloodline of one of the three great Ancient Demons of the Demon Realm, the Candle Dragon. Born weak, its single eye, however, cannot be directly looked upon. The body’s acupoints are obstructed, a total of one thousand and eight, and upon the unblocking of all acupoints, transforms into a demon form, opens the demon eye..."
"Polo Clan..."
As Luo Chen expected, among the bamboo slips in the study of the third trial, beyond the information of various herbs, there was also a wealth of information about the Demon Realm races.
So bamboo slips even had comparative illustrations on them!
Though drawn with a few strokes, the artwork was almost Tongxuan, making one feel as if a great demon were right before their eyes.
In fact, not just the artwork, but the calligraphy on these bamboo slips was also extrely exquisite, containing special power. Even if Luo Chen couldn’t read the characters, just one glance would convey the true aning.
If all these bamboo slips were penned by the Refining Heaven Demon Monarch himself, their implications are truly terrifying.
Returning to the main topic.
Through reading the bamboo slips, in half a year, Luo Chen’s understanding of the never-before-seen Demon Realm beca increasingly profound.
Strange and bizarre races, unimaginable abilities, either ugly or beautiful appearances...and incredibly complex bodily structures!
Thousands of races gathered in one realm, their bodily differences ant that the elixirs each race used were not the sa.
"When I first saw the third trial’s question, I was ecstatic, thinking it was rely body refining spirit pills, a task I could easily manage."
"Now understanding the distribution of Demon Realm races and the structure of most demon bodies, I discover, there’s complexity within simplicity!"
The fact that Luo Chen found it tricky indicates the problem’s crux.
The third trial assessnt was indeed to refine the simplest body refining pills, but it required refinent of "universal" pills.
Breaking through demon race boundaries, allowing most demon races to use these pills to enhance their body refinent stage, laying a foundation in pursuit of the True Demon State that countless demon races dream of.
This makes it far from simple.
The more ordinary the pill, the more extre it needs to be.
"I got a bit carried away, underestimating the inheritance assessnt of the Alchemy Realm."
Murmuring, Luo Chen put down the bamboo slips and paced slowly in the study.
His mind had many inspirations, but at this mont, they all seed sowhat unsuitable.
Either too niche, suitable only for one or two races, or too universal yet with weak dicinal power, not necessarily eting this trial’s assessnt requirents. If trendous effort was spent crafting them, only to receive a poor evaluation, it would be a loss.
Just then, Luo Chen slled sothing subtle.
A faint burnt odor wafted from afar.
He glanced over and saw the pill room door open, with a plu of black smoke billowing out.
Subsequently, Sea Corner Tianmu appeared in view, covered in soot.
Failed again!
Luo Chen’s mouth curled slightly.
How many tis had the other party failed in half a year?
Seventy tis? Eighty tis? Or, without him noticing, had it already reached a hundred?
For his schadenfreude, how could Sea Corner Tianmu not notice, her face darkened imdiately.
"Hmph!"
Seeing the other party about to enter the pill room again, Luo Chen promptly spoke up.
"My friend, two heads are better than one. How about presenting your derived pill formula for so discussion?"
Sea Corner Tianmu forced a smile, "Am I to thank you for your kindness then?"
Luo Chen waved his hand. "No need for thanks, comrades should help each other!"
Then, with self-satisfaction, he pointed at himself, "With my Alchemy Dao Accomplishnt of surpassing two trials, offering you so guidance shouldn’t be a problem."
Sea Corner Tianmu’s expression turned stern.
She coldly said, "Has no one taught you to respect elders? Even if you don’t understand manners, you should know that the capable go first! When you surpass , then you can point fingers!"
"Hmph!"
After speaking, she snorted and re-entered the pill room.
After she left, the smile on Luo Chen’s face gradually faded.
What a pity.
He hoped to see the results of the other’s research to avoid repeated failures.
Though under such verbal jabs and caught in a mont of failure, it should plant a significant ntal shadow in Sea Corner Tianmu’s heart!
Any influence would do.
"Next, I should simplify my study to develop a fundantal pill most suitable for demon races’ body refinent."
Luo Chen waved his sleeve, dispelling the pungent burnt sll in the air, then closed the study door.
...
"Failed again!"
"How could it fail?"
"Clearly, there is commonality in demon body refinent, so why does my pill formula keep failing?"
In the pill room, Sea Corner Tianmu kept questioning herself, looking bewildered.
She didn’t believe there was an issue with her Pill Refinent Technique.
With her skills as an Alchemy Concoction Grandmaster, facing her own researched pill formula, especially lower order basic ones, success in refinent should be the simplest matter.
So the problem must lie with the pill formula itself!
"Could it be that the Abyssal Herb’s potency is too overwhelming?"
Fingertips pinching a cluster of black ash, Sea Corner Tianmu fell into deep thought.
After contemplating for a long ti, she decided to return to the study to review the bamboo slips again.
The answer must be hidden within them!
Squeak...
The study door creaked open, and with a heavy heart, Sea Corner Tianmu glanced inside, her pupils shrinking slightly.
