Chapter 845: Accepting Defeat
Chapter 845: Accepting Defeat
The discord between the emperor and the goddess in the Holy Land and the Tongtian family is nothing new.
"This is more than half of the reserves of Peach Blossom Holy Land!" No matter what Mu Jialan said, it was useless because Jing Xingliang had already decided to gamble, and he felt he would win.
Shen Xiang felt that the big fish had already been caught in the net, and now it was time to close the net. He released his magic power, and combined with his vast spiritual consciousness, it suddenly gushed out from between his eyebrows and poured directly into the alchemy furnace, speeding up the process of condensing the pill!
"It's time to condense the pill. Are you using all your spiritual awareness? The spiritual awareness of a high-level alchemist is really not to be underestimated. It's really amazing!" said a young man. He was an alchemist, but just a low-level one.
At this moment, all the people who had placed bets felt as if their hearts were about to stop. The entire venue was very quiet, and everyone held their breath. Everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Xiang, making him feel a lot of pressure.
Especially for those who have placed a big bet, if they lose, it would be equivalent to losing everything, especially the Dan King Tan Sheng!
If Shen Xiang was not a local tyrant, he would never be able to catch so many big fish even if he threw out so many heavyweight baits.
Shen Xiang was also nervous at this time, but he was more excited and thrilled, especially when he saw the pills in the furnace slowly condensing into shape!
"It's almost successful!" Shen Xiang suddenly calmed down. He couldn't let anything go wrong at this critical moment, otherwise all his efforts would be in vain.
Shen Xiang's mentality at this time also made many powerful people secretly admire him. Not everyone can remain calm at this time. Some alchemists will fail once their minds are affected. From beginning to end, Shen Xiang was not only affected a lot, but also talked to others.
If he hadn't claimed that he was Li Tianjun's successor, many old guys would have thought that he was an old guy who had regained his youth!
A moment passed, but it felt like they had waited for more than ten hours. Seeing Shen Xiang slowly heaved a sigh of relief with a blank expression on his face, everyone had different moods, because now they didn't know whether it was a success or a failure. Shen Xiang was indeed too calm. Even after the result came out, he was still calm and composed.
"Alas..." Shen Xiang let out a long sigh, and everyone immediately smiled. They thought that Shen Xiang had failed.
"Everyone... I'm glad that you can have fun with me. Even if I lose, I will be very happy! Now I accidentally won again." Shen Xiang suddenly smiled and opened the alchemy furnace.
The snow-white beauty pills floated out, causing the faces of those who had placed bets to freeze. When they saw the two snow-white beauty pills, it was as if their world suddenly became dark, as if they had suddenly fallen into an abyss.
Shen Xiang succeeded, and he got two, flawless white beauty pills. In the eyes of those who participated in the gamble, they were like two extremely toxic poisons. The white glow of the beauty pills made them feel extremely evil.
Because it was these two broken pills that made them lose as if they had fallen into the abyss!
"Everyone, please accept my condolences!" Shen Xiang waved his hand, and took away all those things while everyone was stunned by the blow. Although there were more than 270 billion, 200 billion had to be returned to Ji Meixian. However, the bottle of Peach Blossom Fairy Dew from the Peach Blossom Emperor was worth far more than 500 billion!
Of course, there are also the things of the other two Dan Kings. At this time, he asked Su Meiyao and the others to take a good look at the stone tablet that recorded the killing techniques of heaven and earth.
The three Pill Kings found it hard to believe that Shen Xiang had clearly leaked three strands of medicinal spiritual energy, but he was still successful, and they were two beauty pills. From the outside, they looked like they were of very good quality.
The three old guys who were hit hard staggered to Shen Xiang's side and looked at the two beauty pills carefully. They were indeed just refined and still had a warm feeling. The quality of one of them was slightly worse, but it was still of top quality.
The three Dan Kings suddenly felt that Shen Xiang deliberately leaked the medicinal spiritual energy to deceive others. Thinking of this, they turned green in anger.
At this time, many people in the hall had green faces. They glared at Shen Xiang, their eyes were like sharp knives, and they wished they could stab Shen Xiang hundreds of times.
If the people here didn't all have some status, they would have taken action already. Even the three Dan Kings wanted to wipe out Shen Xiang!
"Two seniors, you haven't given me anything yet!" Shen Xiang said with a smile.
"If you admit defeat, take it!" The Longbearded Pill King was very generous. He threw a storage bag to Shen Xiang, containing thirty Life-Restoring Pills, one Hunyuan Pill, and a portion of Hunyuan Pill's medicinal materials.
"Dad..." Tan Zhongsen glared at Shen Xiang, wishing he could cut off piece by piece of Shen Xiang's flesh.
Tan Sheng lost the most miserably. He had to give Shen Xiang one hundred life-saving pills, two hundred billion crystal stones, and the entire Dingsheng Medicine Shop. But if he won, he would be able to get the top-grade Heavenly Grade Diamond Fruit!
This is gambling!
Although Shen Xiang used another identity, he still couldn't avoid offending a lot of people, and now many people wanted to kill him.
"This is one hundred life-saving pills and two hundred billion crystal stones!" Tan Sheng and several shop owners left for a while and then came back.
Shen Xiang used his spiritual sense to scan the storage bag: "Well, what about this medicine shop?"
After taking a few deep breaths, Tan Sheng took out a jade plate engraved with words, dripped blood on it to cancel the contract, and then handed it to Shen Xiang.
This is the title deed of this medicine shop. After Shen Xiang dripped blood, he confirmed that the title deed was valid, and said with a smile: "Thank you!"
Shen Xiang won so much just by refining a furnace of beauty pills. If anyone tells others about it, they will be jealous of him to death.
"Let's go!" Tan Sheng's face was gloomy, his hair was smoking, and he was filled with anger. He waved his sleeves and took away all the people in the medicine shop.
Some of the losers grumbled for a while and then left with hatred. After everyone left, there was still a strong sense of resentment left here, which made Shen Xiang laugh.
"Haha, it's mine!" Shen Xiang took down the plaque of Dingsheng Medicine Shop and sat at the door laughing.
This place is in a good street section, and the shop is very big and well decorated, with five floors in total. There are medicinal fields and many courtyards in the back where medicinal herbs are grown. The whole medicine shop is like a mansion, and the place where pills are sold is just a facade.
Of course, Shen Xiang couldn't run such a large medicine shop by himself, but he was not worried. After closing the door, he activated the protective formation to prevent others from sneaking in, and then went to the shop opened by Danxiang Taoyuan.
Shen Xiang changed his appearance, took out the jade token that Hua Xiangyue gave him, and asked the manager of Danxiang Pavilion to send a message to Danxiang Taoyuan, asking them to send an important figure from Danxiang Taoyuan over.
He did not wait in Danxiang Pavilion, but first found Ji Meixian, returned her 200 billion crystals to her, and then gave her six life-saving pills.
Ji Meixian still lives in that tower.
"Did you tell Peach Blossom Goddess about me?" Shen Xiang asked.
"No!" Ji Meixian said coldly: "Our cooperation is over, please leave."
Ji Meixian was also very jealous of Shen Xiang at this time. She was worried that she would not be able to control herself and take action, but she also knew that it was unwise to take action against Shen Xiang.
