Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 1043 - 530: Eradicating Traitors (Part 3)

That’s why I suspect Master stumbled upon the thief stealing something and unfortunately met with a poisonous hand. Now the thief might still be lurking around us.

And just at this juncture, the news of the court appointing a general came. I’m afraid there’s something fishy about it."

Chen Xuantian looked at him,

"Oh, I also arrived two months ago, so I could be the culprit too."

Pan Zhang shook his head,

"Master, don’t joke around. I’m talking seriously."

Chen Xuantian, "... Go on."

Pan Zhang pointed at the medicine in the box and said,

"To be honest, as a beast cage exterminator, it’s my duty to get rid of those deceitful and evil little thieves who steal things from my family. Although small-time thefts in the beast cage were frequent before, they only picked up some fur and scales. I treated it as them giving the monsters a pedicure and didn’t pay much attention.

But who would have thought that recently someone actually stole the essence blood and spinal cord! As you just saw, many demon beasts are listless! It’s not due to neglect but because someone secretly drained their blood!

At that time, I felt something was wrong. Even if those little thieves had such guts, they shouldn’t have the skills to snatch from a tiger’s mouth, right? Even when we handle it ourselves, it takes several people to catch one! How can a few manage to bleed a demon silently?

But with my skills, after two months in the beast cage, using all possible means, I still couldn’t find the way in. The longer it took, the harder it became to investigate the details. So when the hunting team came back, I asked you to take a look first. That Qilin, was it tampered with in these past two days? Is it related to this elixir?"

Chen Xuantian looked at him and nodded,

"Your guess is correct. The Qilin’s core wound was owed to someone, suffering a silent loss. I healed its internal injury for it to rest. As for the ingredients of this elixir, I’ve almost figured them out. It’s made by stewing the bones of a roe owl, the heart of a Qiongqi, feathers of an Yingzhao, tendons of a Zhuyan, gall of a Flood Dragon, and Qilin Blood, all boiled from six beasts to form one elixir, known as the Six-Flavored Demon Emperor’s Blood Madness Pill.

This formula combines the mad blood of six Demon Emperors. Once taken, the elixir’s essence rapidly bursts in the Dantian, with blood like raging fire, speeding up circulation, True Yuan like a river bursting its banks, and the cultivator’s yang energy surging. The body’s muscles and bones become iron-clad, indomitable, strength boundless as a feral ape tearing a mountain, engulfed in flames, maddened and bloodthirsty, attacking power more than doubling.

Although the Demon Emperor Pill is a battle elixir for the Nascent Soul Realm, with just one Dan King in hand, diluted with the blood of six extreme yang demon bloods taken from the beast cage, boiled with Six Ding Divine Fire, a pot of Six Beast Blood Madness Pills is brewed. Cultivators of the Golden Core Realm can increase their power significantly, fighting fiercely overnight.

If the Blood Madness Pill is ground into powder and consumed with ordinary strength-boosting and courage-bolstering supplements, it becomes a potent short-term combat aid, allowing even Foundation Establishment realm mortals to unleash fighting power. It’s typically mixed with alcohol and consumed by Death Soldiers before a mission.

But this formula’s origin was completely destroyed by the Mystic Sect, families annihilated, not even chickens or dogs left, it’s feared only the Three Great Sects have the knowledge. Where did you get this elixir?"

Pan Zhang gave a thumbs-up, nodding repeatedly,

"Master truly is a master! You’re absolutely right! I found this elixir on the black market! Someone is secretly grinding and powdering it, blending it into common Power Storage Pills, distributing it cheaply to people in the city! And it’s only circulating among the guards of the Gate Valve caravans, and those against the Nangong Family!

I traced it all the way back, finally ambushing the Lu Family’s caravan. It was a tough battle, and only then did I find this elixir on their guards! You say, the Lu Family, far in the Southern Border, suddenly sent a large group of Death Soldiers! Bringing such an elixir, at this point, into the city! What are they up to?"

"Namo Gatling~"

Chen Xuantian folded his palms and sang a line, looking at him,

"Mr. Pan, although this humble monk cannot yet discern all the details, I advise you not to delve too deeply.

Even though you obtained one elixir, the evidence is still insufficient. You don’t know how many people are colluding in the shadows, nor do you know who might be hiding behind the curtain.

Besides, who knows how many people around you have already defected to the court?

As they say, those who observe the deep abyss are unlucky, strategists of concealment meet calamity. Overreach, die early, haven’t you seen the lesson of those who came before?"

Pan Zhang almost burst into tears,

"Master, you’re absolutely right! I feel like there’s an invisible, intangible net looming above, encompassing the entire Nangong Family!

We will all die! But those fools are still causing mischief, completely oblivious!

I wanted to urgently report to the Mistress but they blocked me, telling me to line up outside and wait for my turn without cutting in!? My God, seriously...

Master, what should I do now? I’m terrified..."

Chen Xuantian calculated,

"It’s not hard. You risk your life for a couple hundred stones a month?

As soon as you sense something amiss, immediately escape to the lake, find a sandbar to hide for seven days, and you’ll survive this tribulation."

Pan Zhang frowned,

"Is it really that simple? Will they let me go?"

Chen Xuantian smiled, patting him on the shoulder,

"It’s that simple. A real man knows when to yield, act according to the situation. Fleeing is the best strategy, your life is the most important. Survive this crisis, and there’s a glimmer of hope."

Pan Zhang took a deep breath, controlled his emotions, and bowed,

"Thank you, Master, for your guidance."

Chen Xuantian folded his palms,

"May Gatling Bodhisattva bless you~"
