It was absolutely an accident that Wu Qiankun could discover the immortal medicament that Zhang Tie gifted him.
In the past months, all the medicament that Zhang Tie gifted Wu Qiankun had been left in his home in Dragon Emperor City as a gift. He didn't have a chance to use them. A couple of days ago, an accident happened in Wu Qiankun's home. Finally, Wu Qiankun understood the value of those medicament.
As the general manager of Emperor NvWa Palace, Wu Qiankun was a foreigner in Dragon Emperor City. One of Wu Qiankun's biggest hobbies in Dragon Emperor City was delicious food.
In the mountains outside Dragon Emperor City, a bizarre snowflake bamboo shoot would grow in the depths of the woods in each winter. Snowflake bamboo shoots were tender and tasty. They could only be eaten in a few days in winter each year. It was Wu Qiankun's favorite. However, snowflake bamboo shoots were rare and could not be preserved for too long. They could only be preserved for half a day at most from being dug out to being eaten. If not eaten for half a day, snowflake bamboo shoots would melt like snowflakes and lose their tasty taste.
Therefore, Wu Qiankun's servants would dig snowflake bamboo shoots for Wu Qiankun in the mountains outside Dragon Emperor City under the leadership of his steward in each winter.
However, a couple of days ago, when some servants went to the mountains outside Dragon Emperor City to dig snowflake bamboo shoots for Wu Qiankun, they encountered an accident. When they dug winter bamboo shoots, they encountered a rare wind snake. At that time, 7 people were bitten by the wind snake and were poisoned by it.
The venom of wind snake was highly toxic. If commoners were bitten by it, they would die in a few hours if they didn't receive medical treatment in time. Nobody below immortal general could survive it. Even if immortal generals were bitten by wind snakes, without antidote, they would at least suffer a great loss of vitality and could only recover slowly.
There was an antidote for the venom of wind snake. However, the most important ingredient of the antidote was the gallbladder of wind snakes. As wind snakes moved as fast as lightning bolts, they were rare and hard to catch. Therefore, the antidote for wind snakes was scarce.
When the Wu family's servants were sent to Wu Qiankun's house, Wu Qiankun, who got the news, immediately found three sets of antidotes for the Wind Snake Venom and saved three of his servants. However, the remaining four servants were not so lucky.
As the general manager of Emperor NvWa Palace, it was already not easy for Wu Qiankun to find three sets of antidotes for wind snake venom in the blink of an eye. Nobody could imagine that Wu Qiankun's servants could be so unlucky. When over 10 people went to pick snowflake bamboo shoots, they encountered a wind snake. In the blink of an eye, 7 of them had been killed by the wind snake. Three sets of antidotes for wind snake venom were not enough.
At that time, Wu Qiankun had no choice but to arrange the remaining four servants to postpone the outbreak of the venom of wind snake in the pool of recovery for the time being. After that, he hurriedly asked people to find the antidote. Finally, they found the antidote; however, it was not in Dragon Emperor City. It would take them at least one day to deliver it here by airboat. As for the remaining servants of Wu Clan, they could only stand a few more hours in the pool of recovery at most; instead of one day, they couldn't stand it for one day.
When Wu Qiankun was a bit desperate, he suddenly recalled the medicament that Zhang Tie gifted to him.
Wu Qiankun still remembered that Zhang Tie had told him at that time, "As long as you feel uncomfortable, you could use it to recover." Of course, being poisoned also belonged to physical discomfort. Therefore, Wu Qiankun directly took out the medicament that Zhang Tie had given to him and gave it to each of the four servants.
At that moment, Wu Qiankun had not imagined that Zhang Tie's medicament could detoxify the venom of wind snake at all. However, the result shocked Wu Qiankun very much.
Soon after the four servants took the medicament, the venom of wind snake venom had almost been detoxified. The effect of the medicament could even match that of the specially formulated antidote for wind snake venom. As a result, before the airboat arrived at Dragon Emperor City, all the servants in Wu Qiankun's mansion had recovered.
Not until then did Wu Qiankun realize the special effect of those medicaments.
'Did Zhang Tie predict that I would need the antidote for wind snake venom? Therefore, he gifted me those medicaments? Are those medicaments really effective for wind snake venom?'
Of course, Wu Qiankun didn't believe that Zhang Tie could predict that. Even though Zhang Tie was proficient in divination, as Dragon Emperor, Zhang Tie would never worry about the lives of his servants. Therefore, the most reasonable explanation was that it was just one of the effects of those medicaments that Zhang Tie gifted to him to detoxify the venom of wind snake venom.
These days, Wu Qiankun was experimenting with the effects of those medicaments that Zhang Tie gifted to him.
At the beginning, Wu Qiankun had found several poisons that were as toxic as wind snake's venom and experimented on animals. The result of the experiment made Wu Qiankun unable to believe his eyes. Those poisons that required special antidotes or didn't even have antidotes at all were successfully detoxified by Zhang Tie's medicament.
Besides, Wu Qiankun also experimented on his servants and himself. He found that the medicament that Zhang Tie gifted him could even cure internal and external wounds besides recovering spiritual and physical strength rapidly; especially the latter, the effect of those medicament on internal and external wounds could almost match that of preliminary recovery pool.
What did it mean for immortal generals? As long as one vial of such medicament was carried, it was like carrying a pool of preliminary recovery which could help them recover their wounds in the shortest period of time. Over 99% of immortal generals in Motian Realm couldn't carry a pool of preliminary recovery in their portable space-teleportation equipment. In a battle, carrying some vials of such medicament was a great guarantee for anyone.
Wu Qiankun was completely shocked by the effects of those medicaments. Previously, Wu Qiankun had not imagined that there could be such marvelous medicaments in Motian Realm.
After discovering the effects of those medicaments, Wu Qiankun didn't even want to experiment with those medicaments anymore.
After discovering that the medicament that Zhang Tie gifted him was extraordinary and useful, Wu Qiankun couldn't stand going to Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace to buy some more for spare. No immortal general would complain about carrying too many of such medicament.
When Wu Qiankun talked about those things with spirited eyebrows, Zhang Tie just listened to him very patiently with a smile. He didn't interrupt Wu Qiankun at all.
Zhang Tie found that he had underestimated the shock and surprise that all-purpose medicaments could bring to these immortal generals in Motian Realm. Previously, Zhang Tie thought that Wu Qiankun would give those powers of Emperor NvWa's Palace to study them. After figuring out all the effects of all-purpose medicaments, Wu Qiankun would bring the powers of Emperor NvWa's Palace here to negotiate with him. Unimaginably, Wu Qiankun couldn't wait to find Zhang Tie only after discovering a part of the effects of all-purpose medicaments.
"If not the servants in my mansion, I wouldn't know that Your Majesty gifted such a precious medicament to me!" Wu Qiankun sighed. "I've never seen or heard of such a potion before. I had eyes but failed to recognize a treasure. I almost mistook such a good thing for an ordinary potion and made a fool of myself. By the way, Your Majesty, what is the name of this potion?"
"It's Dragon Emperor's Medicament!" Zhang Tie said with a solemn look.
Pharmacists in Motian Realm were not developed. Additionally, there was no joke about all-purpose medicament. If Zhang Tie told Wu Qiankun the name of all-purpose medicament, Wu Qiankun would definitely be confused about it. In this case, Zhang Tie preferred to give this new generation of all-purpose medicament a lofty name in Motian Realm so that he could earn more element crystals in the future. In the words of Donder, a good name was a brand. In many cases, if a commodity had a good name or a resounding brand, it would already be half a success. By contrast, the name of Dragon Emperor's Medicament sounded lofty and impressive. In the near future, this name would definitely shock the entire Motian Realm.
"Dragon Emperor's Medicament … Dragon Emperor's Medicament …" Wu Qiankun smacked his lips as he nodded forcefully. "Right, only this name could match the effect of that medicament!" After that, Wu Qiankun took a careful look at Zhang Tie as he asked, "May I know the name of this medicament …"
"This medicament was invented by me..." Zhang Tie said frankly. This was the 100% truth that Zhang Tie said today.
As was imagined, the moment he heard that this medicament was invented by Zhang Tie, Wu Qiankun's eye light had changed once again. His respect for Zhang Tie in his eyes increased as he said sincerely, "Your Majesty, you could even invent such a medicament. You're really a genius. No wonder Grand Dragon Emperor would favor you and entrust Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace to you!"
"I'm flattered. However, the old man indeed used to drink this medicament that I invented. After becoming the old man's disciple and knowing the old man's identity, I named it casually!" Zhang Tie said modestly as he started to talk nonsense. However, no matter what Zhang Tie said, Wu Qiankun would always believe in it. Because the effect of Dragon Emperor's Medicament was right in front of Wu Qiankun, nothing could be more convincing than it.
This was also Zhang Tie's brilliance. Each of Zhang Tie's lies or schemes would be supported by a convincing truth. Unconsciously, he could entrap everyone in his scheme without them knowing it.
"I'm here to express my gratitude to Your Majesty. Without Your Majesty's medicament, some loyal servants in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace would have been killed by me. I really feel sorry for them. I don't know how long would I feel guilty about it. Second, I want to ask Your Majesty whether you have more Dragon Emperor's Medicament. If you do, I will ask for some more from Your Majesty in case of emergency. Our disciples across Dragon Emperor Big Domain are often injured by poisons. By then, Emperor NvWa Palace might not find the corresponding antidote in a short period of time. Therefore, tragedies are inevitable. If I could have more of such medicament, I might be able to save a lot of people and fulfill my responsibility as the general manager …" Wu Qiankun revealed his ability as the general manager of Emperor NvWa Palace, saying, "I know this medicament is very valuable. However, if I buy it from Your Majesty, it would be stingy and disrespectful to Your Majesty. Therefore, I ask for some more from Your Majesty. Hopefully, Your Majesty will forgive me!"
"Hahaha, now that General Manager Wu has put it so straightforwardly, I would be stingy if I don't give you more!" Zhang Tie burst out into laughter as he continued, "I will gift 200 more vials of Dragon Emperor's Medicament to General Manager Wu …"
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Wu Qiankun became thrilled as he hurriedly thanked Zhang Tie and bowed deeply, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"But I have a condition!"
"What condition?" Wu Qiankun became stunned.
"General Manager Wu, you need to send 100 vials of Dragon Emperor's Medicament to Emperor NvWa Palace so that the powers or pharmacists in Emperor NvWa Palace could identify the effects of Dragon Emperor's Medicament. Additionally, General Manager Wu, tell Emperor NvWa Palace that I could produce Dragon Emperor's Medicament on a large scale. I wonder whether Emperor NvWa Palace is interested in Dragon Emperor's Medicament or not!" At this moment, Zhang Tie straightforwardly made his intention clear in case of wasting more time.
"Your Majesty, what did you say? Large scale?" Wu Qiankun raised his voice in a split second with an unbelievable look as if he had misheard it or thought that Zhang Tie was joking with him. Wu Qiankun had never imagined that element crystals could be grown out of the ground after such a precious Dragon Emperor's Medicament was followed by the two words "large quantity".
"I'm not joking. General Manager Wu only needs to bring my words to Emperor NvWa Palace. I will be responsible for all the consequences!" Zhang Tie said with a smile, "What happened in Motian Realm today, General Manager Wu might get some news from Emperor NvWa Palace. I have to enter secluded cultivation as soon as possible. If General Manager Wu brings someone to see me next time, you'd better bring them together with the goods of Star Emperor Immortal Palace!"
After saying that, Zhang Tie picked up the teacup and blew it slightly …
…
When Wu Qiankun left Yangxin Palace and the Forbidden City, he took two cases, each of which contained 100 vials of Dragon Emperor's Medicament.
Zhang Tie didn't know how Wu Qiankun felt when he left Yangxin Palace; however, Zhang Tie felt pretty good when he left Yangxin Palace.
Outside Yangxin Palace, Zhang Tie looked up at the sky. The cyan flowing flames had not completely disappeared. The entire sky was slowly changing its color like a porcelain being changed in a kiln.
The intense atmosphere in the Forbidden City had not faded away; however, the uproar caused by the abnormal phenomenon in the sky had just come to a start in Dragon Emperor City.
Under the respectful gaze of Leng Manxue and the others, Zhang Tie returned to the backroom of Jiaotai Palace and continued to enter secluded cultivation.
"This substitute is really useful. Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie, you're really cunning. Hahaha …" Zhang Tie lowered his head and looked at his own body as he revealed an evil smile. Closely after that, he closed his eyes.
Not until then did the real Zhang Tie open his eyes in Castle of Black Iron with the same evil smile.
"Congratulations, Castle Lord, for promoting to a heavenly knight …"
It was the first sentence that Zhang Tie heard when he opened his eyes …
'Finally heavenly knight …'
