I Truly Am The Villian-Chapter 1119 - 1118: Doubt, Test
"I.....," Dan Qingyun began to speak, feeling as though there were countless things he wanted to say, but when it came to his lips, he found himself at a loss for words.
Pill Calamity was thought to be the destruction of pills, this had always been his belief.
Now, it seemed as if his understanding had been shattered, being told that Pill Calamity is for the baptism of pills, his thoughts were in as much disarray as a tangled hemp rope.
Looking at Xu Zimei's departing figure, Dan Qingyun felt that silhouette to be incredibly majestic.
As if the setting sun cast its glow down, stretching the shadow long and far.
"Referee, aren't you coming to give the verdict?" Xu Zimei looked toward the Pill Saint Elder and inquired.
"Ah... Oh oh," the Pill Saint Elder instantly snapped back to reality and quickly stepped forward.
Zen Old Ghost and Elder Qian Sha also followed closely behind.
People from both the Zen-Demon factions gathered around.
The Pill Saint Elder scrutinized carefully, and the other pills which were of the eighth-grade were skipped over directly.
He glanced at Dan Qingyun's pill, and then spoke, "Ninth-grade Limit Pill, Nine Ghosts Devouring Soul Pill."
He approached Xu Zimei next, intending to pick up the pill, but the pill resisted with a force,
blocking his hand outright.
Xu Zimei flicked the pill lightly with his finger, placing it in the hands of the Pill Saint Elder.
The Pill Saint Elder held the pill gingerly in front of his eyes for a meticulous examination.
"Pill Saint Elder, you must discern carefully, whether it is a Half-Step Emperor Pill or just a ninth-grade pill," Zen Old Ghost spoke from the side.
"I have been identifying pills for many years, and have never once made a mistake," the Pill Saint Elder responded calmly.
He stared at the pill in his hand, the entire pill seemed naturally formed, like amber, crystal clear, containing within it a multitude of extraordinary visions.
The pill possessed spirit, Spiritual Energy like a long river, Immortal Qi like the vast and drifting smoke.
"It is a Half-Step Emperor Pill, no doubt about it," the Pill Saint Elder nodded, looking toward Xu Zimei.
"I wonder if the alchemy technique used by the honored friend is the Great Mysterious Pill Scripture?"
"You do have some insight," Xu Zimei nodded.
"It was the prologue from the honored friend that awakened me," the Pill Saint Elder shook his head as he replied.
"What are your relations with the Wang Family?"
The Wang Family is one of the top ten major families, the keepers of the Great Mysterious Pill Scripture.
"I won't say, so don't ask," Xu Zimei said with a smile.
The Pill Saint Elder nodded slightly, if Xu Zimei was unwilling to say more, he naturally would not press the issue.
"Since that's the case, there's no more suspense in this competition," he said.
"The victor of this competition is Xu....."
"Wait a moment," the Pill Saint Elder had begun to speak when he was suddenly interrupted.
Zen Old Ghost stood out, saying, "I have an objection."
"Zen Old Ghost, what are you trying to do?" Elder Qian Sha asked with a frown.
"This so-called Immortal Dragon Pill he has concocted, who knows if it works, I've never heard of it before," Zen Old Ghost stated.
"Are you questioning my judgment, Elder Zen?" the Pill Saint Elder turned and asked.
"Not at all, my fellow companions, please do not misunderstand; I'm just unclear about the efficacy of this pill," Zen Old Ghost explained.
"Nine Lives Immortal Dragon Pill," Xu Zimei picked up the pill, smiling as he spoke.
"Just as its name implies, this pill can transform into a Divine Dragon, that's for external use.
If taken internally, one can have nine lives."

"Nine lives?" Zen Old Ghost laughed softly.
"What a joke."
"Just because you've never seen it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist, don't judge the vastness of the world with your shallow vision," Xu Zimei said.
"Those nine lives refer to unnatural death; if one's lifespan has naturally come to an end, not even nine lives could save them."
"I don't believe it unless you can prove it to me," Zen Old Ghost continued to oppose.
"Then how about you take this pill, and I'll kill you nine times, want to give it a try?" Xu Zimei asked.
"I will have a disciple test it," said the Zen Old Ghost.
With a wave of his hand, a young man dressed in a golden kasaya walked briskly over.
He gave a Buddhist salute to everyone and then said, "The disciple is willing to test the pill."
"This Half-Step Emperor Pill is a rare find in our Mortal Domain, are you sure you want to ruin it like this?" admonished the Pill Saint Elder.
"If he doesn't test it, how can we prove the efficacy of the pill?" countered the Zen Old Ghost.
"This so-called Nine Lives Immortal Dragon Pill, I've never heard of such a thing before."
"If he wishes to test, then let him," Xu Zimei gestured dismissively.
"Pills are trivial; I can have as many as I want. The Brahma Sect of the Western Region is declining day by day, not even having heard of a Half-Step Emperor Pill."
He handed the pill to the kasaya-clad youth.
The young man swallowed the pill in one gulp, and the next moment his body was brimming with Immortal Qi, and even the shadow of an immortal dragon manifested on his forehead.
"How does it feel?" asked the Zen Old Ghost.
The young man shook his head slightly.
"You try," said Xu Zimei.
The Zen Old Ghost frowned slightly and sent a palm strike towards the young man with full Jing Qi, annihilating him with a single blow.
After the young man was struck dead, before the Zen Old Ghost could make a thorough investigation, a dragon form intertwined above the corpse.
The departing Yin Soul was suddenly seized.
Forcibly pulled back into the body, a vast surge of Immortal Qi swept around him, enveloping the vicinity.
The body of the young man slowly levitated.
The next moment, his formerly closed eyes suddenly shot open, a look of bafflement in his gaze.
The Zen Old Ghost's face showed embarrassment.
"Want to try again?" Xu Zimei asked.
"Just one occurrence proves nothing," the Zen Old Ghost snorted coldly.
His right palm generated a wind once more, fierce and powerful as he struck at the young man again.
But the outcome was the same as before.
The Zen Old Ghost, refusing to believe in curses, his palms flashing with golden light, even began to thrash the corpse.
Constantly striking at the young man's body.
After the youth resurrected twice, thrice, and all the way to nine times, the Zen Old Ghost still raised his longsword.
"Zen Elder, that is enough," said the leader of the Zen Sect, a young man in green robes who had been silent until then, speaking up slowly.
"Do you want to kill him?"
The Zen Old Ghost seemed to have been bewitched, but he came to his senses, his forehead drenched in sweat.
"I apologize, Lord Cheng," the Zen Old Ghost hurriedly explained.
The young man gestured with his hands, saying, "Losing a competition is no big deal, we can simply win it back in three years.
Don't compromise yourself."
"I understand," nodded the Zen Old Ghost.
He was mainly responsible for this Myriad Laws Pill Meeting and was internally struggling to accept this defeat and its result.
The young man turned his head again, smiling at Xu Zimei: "The Zen Sect's sincerity is not in vain, glad to make your acquaintance."
"Xu Zimei," Xu Zimei nodded slightly in response.
"I know, we shall meet again if the opportunity arises," the young man said with a smile, then led the Zen Old Ghost and the others from the Zen Sect away.
Watching the young man's retreating figure, Xu Zimei's brow furrowed slightly.
This fellow seems to have tricks up his sleeve.
"Don't worry about it, with the Demon Sect around, they wouldn't dare to act recklessly," Elder Qian Sha said cheerfully.
"Just remember our agreement," Xu Zimei reminded.
"Rest assured, I will make arrangements tomorrow for you to enter the Minor World," Elder Qian Sha replied.
