Tan Yun arrived with great anticipation, but upon hearing that there were no spiritual herbs, her anger flared up instantly!
Suddenly, she showed a look of pain, her delicate jade-like hands pressed against her heart, beads of fine sweat covering her forehead.
"Ice Clear Chief, you are still not qualified in front of this old man..."
With Tan Yun's experience, he was confident that with the aura from the Supreme VIP Pavilion, a single rebuke would be enough to subdue the bing qing daoist!
And it turned out to be the case!
Shen Subing's delicate body trembled, subconsciously thinking that the Tan Yun wrapped in the Turtle Breathing Cold Veil before her was a person of high authority from the Immortal Sect or even the Sacred Sect.
Seeing Shen Subing’s predicament, Tan Yun felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart. However, he was just a facade and did not want to truly corner her, so he lightly cleared his throat, and the next words he spoke made Shen Subing regard him as an even greater being.
Tan Yun looked at her exquisitely pale face and said, "Your third eye is purplish, the Zhuan Bamboo and Sih Bai acupoints are dark, and the Di Cang acupoint is weakly pulsating…"
Pausing for a moment, Tan Yun fixed his gaze on the center of her chin and spoke in a deep voice, "The Cheng Jiang acupoint is even more unstable! If this old man is not mistaken, you have been exhausted by recent affairs, and your whole body's nerves often ache intensely, especially your heart, which is in unbearable pain."
"Ice Clear Chief, I advise you to take a deep breath and sit down to have a calm conversation with this old man, otherwise, if you get angry again, with your current weakened state, you won’t last more than seven days."
As soon as his voice fell, the killing intent in Shen Subing's beautiful eyes had already faded, replaced by deep shock.
She never expected that the elder before her could tell how terribly her body was doing just by looking at her features!
Wouldn't such a person's medical skills and alchemical arts surpass her own?
Shen Subing indeed took a deep breath, calming her emotions, and sat down again, staring intently at Tan Yun. “Senior, since you do not have the four kinds of spiritual herbs that the younger generation needs, why did you call me here?”
"You gave me hope, yet disappointed me again. What do you mean by that?"
Tan Yun chuckled, "Since you called me senior, I won’t hide anything. Let’s keep it brief; my time is valuable. I will ask you a few questions, and you must answer truthfully."
"Please go ahead." Shen Subing replied reluctantly.
"Alright, I will ask you, do you need the Tortoise Breath Ice Orchid, Ghostly Soul Yin Stone Lotus, Blazing Flame Spiritual Grass, and Revival Jade Grass to refine the Revival Sovereign Pill?" Tan Yun's tone remained ancient.
Shen Subing was taken aback at first, then her expression became more respectful.
In her view, the fact that the other party could mention what elixirs were needed just from these four spiritual herbs showed he was no ordinary person.
The Revival Sovereign Pill could only be refined by a Sovereign Alchemist above the grand alchemist level, and even the inner sect danmai disciples might not have even heard of it!
"Since that's the case, it will be easy." Tan Yun surprisingly stated, "There are at least three methods to refine the Revival Sovereign Pill."
"This old man tells you, just replace them with six different spiritual herbs, and these six spiritual herbs are available in your Spirit Mountain Herb Garden."
"In this way, I have also completed your reward task. So, is it true or not?”
Upon hearing this, Shen Subing suddenly stood up, a storm of emotions rising in her heart. Overwhelmed by shock, her internal energy surged, her heart pained to the point of making it hard to breathe, and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on her forehead, her pitiably thin body trembling uncontrollably.
"Little girl, you just can’t hold your breath. If you have something to say, just sit down and say it." Tan Yun said with a chuckle, but his tone still had an unfathomable manner.
