Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

Li Guanqi was stunned in place, staring at the handsome and well-built man before him, momentarily forgetting to respond.

Gu Changsheng smiled, stepping forward and saying, "Haha, Huai Zhi, don't be offended. Guanqi is probably just surprised by your youth."

The man was afraid that Xiang Huai Zhi would be displeased by these minor breaches of etiquette.

The man before him looked young, but he was actually older than Gu Changsheng, a veritable old monster.

Moreover, this man was known throughout the alchemy world for his eccentric temperament.

He could refine pills for his mortal enemies and refuse to save his friends in need.

It could be said that Xiang Huai Zhi was an anomaly in the entire alchemist circle, yet his talent in the art of pills was exceptionally strong.

This led to no one in the circle daring to provoke him, let alone anger him.

Furthermore... Xiang Huai Zhi's combat power was unlike that of a physically weak alchemist.

In Xiang Huai Zhi's battles, almost no opponent escaped from his hands; he was simply a monster.

Li Guanqi stared at Xiang Huai Zhi with a strange expression, pulling Meng Wanshu into a bow, and said in a deep voice.

"Junior Li Guanqi greets Senior Xiang."

Meng Wanshu did the same, and everyone present understood what was happening.

Several elders exchanged glances, all seeing disbelief in each other's eyes.

They had never seen Xiang Huai Zhi show such a close attitude to an outsider.

Xiang Huai Zhi's lips slightly curved, his eyes lightly examining Li Guanqi and Meng Wanshu.

He never thought that his meeting with Li Guanqi would be under such circumstances.

After Li Guanqi sat down, his heart was also surging. He didn't expect to encounter some of the most mysterious figures among the Eight Generals today.

Hong Zhi had told him about the people in the Eight Generals.

"Dragon Marquis, Hong Zhi, Chan Kongzi, You Ming, Nangong Xuandu, and now Xiang Huaizhi..."

"The last two, I haven't met yet."

Xiang Huai Zhi had Li Guanqi sit beside him, turning his head to look at Gu Changsheng, who was still standing there, and said casually.

"Say what you need to say, don't mind me."

Gu Changsheng then took his seat and said in a deep voice, "Then let's not waste any time."

"The reason I've gathered everyone here today is that Little Friend Li's soul is currently incomplete, and I'd like everyone to help think of a solution."

The white-robed elder with his hands in his sleeves frowned and said, "Old Gu, you're not unaware of the matter of incomplete souls; it's impossible to create something from nothing."

"Not to mention... this little fellow indulged his own virtual self to become independent!"

"Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, he completely severed his three souls and seven spirits, right?"

Han Yuan's eyes were incredibly sharp, and he had already guessed Li Guanqi's condition just from sensing his aura.

The white-bearded old man, Jiang Qizhi, sighed and said, "There's no other way. Even if we could find a heaven-defying treasure to fill the gap, it would be difficult to fuse."

Finally, Guo Feng stood up and said, "If that's the problem, then there's nothing to discuss."

"Even if the five of us refine pills together, it won't help."

Gu Changsheng smiled. Of course, he knew that these people couldn't do anything, so he deliberately kept them in suspense and said softly.

"But what if... I have an ancient pill formula, the Profound Origin Sacred Soul Pill formula?"

Whoosh!!

The chair scraped against the ground with a chilling sound, and the three old men stood up abruptly.

Han Yuan grabbed Gu Changsheng by the collar and pulled him up, his eyes filled with excitement as he said.

"What did you say!! Say it again!!"

Jiang Qizhi, with his goatee, leaned closer and shook Gu Changsheng's shoulders, saying.

"Are you kidding me!!! I don't believe you have it."

The old man was so anxious that his local dialect came out. Guo Feng squeezed in and said.

"Where did it come from?? Do you really have it?"

"My son's soul was damaged a few years ago, you know. If you really have the Profound Origin Sacred Soul Pill formula, I'm willing to pay 300 million spirit stones to buy it!"

Jiang Qizhi pushed the old man away, cursing, "Get lost, 300 million? If you don't have money, don't yell here."

"800 million, give it to me."

"Don't force me to beat you up, huh."

Li Guanqi watched the people tearing at each other, never expecting things to turn out this way.

Xiang Huai Zhi, wearing a fiery red robe, slowly reached out his hand, his slender fingers beckoning, and said softly.

"Come here, let me see."

Li Guanqi obediently moved closer.

Xiang Huai Zhi stretched out his finger and touched Li Guanqi's brow, a vast and gentle divine sense surging from his warm fingertips, sweeping through his entire body.

It gently touched his sea of consciousness and primordial spirit without intruding too much. Li Guanqi's tense body gradually relaxed.

Xiang Huai Zhi withdrew his divine sense, his handsome face slightly frowning, and looked at him with some reproach, saying.

"Nonsense."

This sentence was said very naturally, like an elder scolding his younger generation.

Meng Wanshu covered her mouth and giggled, saying softly, "Yes, Senior should tell him more."

Xiang Huai Zhi glanced at Meng Wanshu and nodded with a smile.

"Did you give the pill formula to Gu Changsheng?"

Li Guanqi nodded silently. Xiang Huai Zhi said softly, "Don't flaunt your wealth. Don't let these old fellows know."

"Although it doesn't matter if they know, if any of them dare to touch you, I'll burn their three clans."

"However, with the current turbulent situation, it's best to be careful."

Li Guanqi could only nod obediently upon hearing this.

Gu Changsheng angrily pushed the others away, looking at his wrinkled collar and cursing.

"You're all so old, why are you still acting like children!!"

"I've already said it, how could I not tell you?"

After speaking, Gu Changsheng had everyone sit down and glanced at Xiang Huai Zhi.

He found that he and Li Guanqi were chatting happily, and he wasn't even surprised that he had this pill formula.

Gu Changsheng looked around and said in a deep voice, "I'll give each of you a copy of this pill formula!"

Everyone was shocked by this statement!!

Gu Changsheng said truthfully, "The methods required to refine this pill formula are too high, so high that... I can't handle it alone!"

"The reason I called you here today is because I consider you my friends."

"Therefore... I hope you won't hesitate to contribute! We also need to study this pill formula."

"After all, many spirit herbs and plants from ancient times have different names now, and some spirit herbs have even disappeared..."

The old men showed excited expressions, their faces turning ruddy.

They thought that Gu Changsheng would definitely take this opportunity to extort them heavily, but they didn't expect this result.

But the more this was the case, the more they felt that they must find every possible way to successfully refine the Profound Origin Sacred Soul Pill!!!

Even Xiang Huai Zhi was interested. He felt that refining pills now was not challenging at all.

Next, Gu Changsheng showed the pill formula to everyone. The old men surrounded Li Guanqi, examining his condition one by one.

Li Guanqi was like a test subject, listening to the five people's intense and fanciful arguments.
