Chapter 1174: Snake King Pill Formula, a Confluence of Ten Thousand Poisons

Bai Xinlan, shocked, lifted her head and stared at Qinglong Daoren.

The Luotian Pill is only one kind of pill; there is another pill that pairs with the Luotian Pill.

She hadn't intended to bring it out, but Qinglong Daoren saw through it; even within the Luotian White Snake Clan, few know of this.

After examining the Luotian Pill formula, Qinglong Daoren could discern it, and while Bai Xinlan was shocked, she was also filled with joy; this shows Qinglong Daoren's Pill Refining is not weak, and being able to see this indicates a high chance the Luotian Pill can succeed.

"Not bad, Qinglong Daoist friend, there is indeed another pill, also a seventh‑grade pill, which is the Snake King Pill of our Luotian White Snake Clan."

"The Luotian Pill and the Snake King Pill are complementary; taken together, their effect is stronger."

"However, refining the Snake King Pill is far more difficult—several times the level of the Luotian Pill—and it requires very rare, special spirit medicines."

"Even I have only managed to gather a few batches. Daoist friend, do you wish to refine them together?"

Bai Xinlan stared at Qinglong Daoren with hopeful yet anxious thoughts, hoping he would nod; if so, she could obtain the two seventh‑grade pills, and her strength would ascend a level, perhaps even enabling a seventh metamorphosis and a bid for the Demon Emperor throne.

Everything is possible.

When the Luotian Pill and Snake King Pill are taken together, the effect is not simply one plus one; it multiplies many times over, depending on the pill's quality and one's fate, so each person experiences a different result.

Bai Xinlan naturally hopes Qinglong Daoren can refine both pills, but she thinks it unlikely—the probability is extremely low.

"May I see the Snake King Pill formula?" Qinglong Daoren dared not answer directly; without seeing the formula, he could not say such a thing.

If the refinement fails, it would be embarrassing.

Qinglong Daoren was very cautious; although a seventh‑grade pill poses no difficulty for his own body, it is still better to be careful.

He must not speak too fully, lest he embarrass himself.

"Alright, I have it," Bai Xinlan produced another snake skin and handed it to Qinglong Daoren.

Qinglong Daoren examined it immediately and was startled.

The Snake King Pill belongs to the seventh‑grade pills and is a relatively high‑grade among them; its refinement is difficult, the required materials are rare and have specific age requirements, and the refining methods differ. Many ingredients are toxins, and the raw material for the Snake King Pill includes the venom of numerous Strong Ones.

Various poisons fuse together, mostly snake venom, forming the strongest toxin; eventually these toxins transform into a certain pill, whose properties change—the toxicity is neutralized, yet it remains highly poisonous.

During refinement, any slight mistake can cause an explosion; once the toxicity erupts, even a Seek Dao Realm cannot survive.

The danger level rises dramatically; it is essentially a life‑risking refinement, which is why Bai Xinlan does not want Qinglong Daoren to refine the Snake King Pill—it is far too dangerous.

High refinement difficulty is one thing; the main issue is the danger.

A life‑threatening pill—if Qinglong Daoren dies because of it, wouldn't she get nothing at all?

Qinglong Daoren is very important; Bai Xinlan does not wish him to die.

"The Snake King Pill is extremely dangerous—it is a conglomerate of various poisons. If a mistake occurs, the toxin rushes into the body. These poisons are the venoms of many demonic beasts, beyond the resistance of a Seek Dao Realm. Daoist friend, perhaps you should…?"

Bai Xinlan hopes Qinglong Daoren will abandon the refinement; after all, she does not want trouble.

Qinglong Daoren observed for a long while, exhaled, and said, "The Snake King Pill truly is extraordinary; the one who originally devised this formula was a genius."

"By exploiting the toxicities among poisons, letting them fuse and neutralize each other, this poisonous conglomerate was created."

"After solidifying, the Snake King Pill actually sheds its toxicity, becoming a special kind of pill."

It is not that the Snake King Pill lacks toxicity; the toxicity remains, just not as terrifying.

If consumed by other humans or demonic beasts, it would instantly erupt and poison all.

This pill is only suitable for the Luotian White Snake Clan, and it must be taken together with the Luotian Pill.

Taking the Snake King Pill alone will kill a person.

Even for the Luotian White Snake Clan, there is a high chance of death; of course, a small fraction can withstand the toxicity, mutate, and evolve into a stronger being.

Such a probability is extremely low; nine deaths to one life is not an exaggeration.

"This pill is only for the Luotian White Snake Clan; other demonic beasts obtaining it are of no use."

"It seems that back then your Luotian White Snake Clan produced a genius Pill Refiner."

Bai Xinlan nodded: "Indeed, our Luotian White Snake Clan once had a genius Pill Refiner, but unfortunately he died young and could not lead the clan to glory."

"These are also the regrets of our Luotian White Snake Clan; after all these years, no one has ever inherited its Pill Refining art, nor succeeded in refining the Luotian Pill and the Snake King Pill."

This is the sorrow of their clan; among demonic beasts, those who awaken the Pill Refining talent are truly treasures among treasures.

Regrettably, no one in their clan can recreate this talent.

Throughout the Mangshan Demon Palace, there is no Pill Refiner of this caliber.

"Daoist friend, can you refine it?" Bai Xinlan looked hopeful again, her eyes fixed on Qinglong Daoren.

Qinglong Daoren shook his head; Bai Xinlan was very disappointed—she had expected this, already having an answer in her heart, but just didn't want to admit it.

The next moment, Qinglong Daoren nodded again.

Bai Xinlan asked puzzled, "Qinglong Daoist friend, what do you mean?"

He alternated between shaking his head and nodding; what does it mean? She was baffled.

Qinglong Daoren said, "The refinement of the Snake King Pill is extremely difficult and dangerous. I can give it a try, but I cannot guarantee success. Bai Xinlan Daoist friend, do you wish to attempt it?"

He does not speak fully, in order to leave himself an escape route.

It is also to keep Bai Xinlan from holding hope.

Bai Xinlan, hearing this, exclaimed excitedly, "Since you wish to try, I am naturally willing, but I must remind you, Daoist friend, the Snake King Pill is very dangerous; if you are worried, perhaps you should give up?"

Qinglong Daoren reached out: "Give me the materials; I will figure out the rest."

Bai Xinlan hesitated for a moment, then produced five batches of materials—hard‑won collections from years of effort.

She gave them all to Qinglong Daoren, hoping for good news, though she still harbored no hope.

"Qinglong Daoist friend, you must be careful; these venoms cannot be handled recklessly."

Qinglong Daoren nodded: "Understood, Bai Xinlan Daoist friend, I will be cautious."

With both pill formulas in hand, the seventh‑grade pill formulas can grant the body many insights, perhaps even revealing additional formulas.
