Chapter 545: Chapter 539: Blood Dragon Becomes Emperor
Upon hearing about the power of the high-level elixir formula, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically, with Ignis Wire and Harrison Houston displaying a tinge of admiration and astonishment on their faces.
In Silver-Abyssal City, where being a King-level expert was considered the pinnacle, a Ghost Emperor was an unbeatable existence that could suppress all resistance.
If they could refine the high-level external elixir mentioned by David Jones that could create a Ghost Emperor powerhouse, even becoming the Prefect of Spring Mansion or a favored guest of the Great You Empress would be a piece of cake!
Noticing the shock in everyone’s eyes, David Jones’ expression remained calm.
Those currently in the room were some of the city’s most influential figures, who naturally understood the significance of a Healer who could cure Blood Transformation Disease.
As a relatively common incurable disease in the Umbral world, many Ghost Nobles suffered from Blood Transformation Disease.
Every year, there would be Ghost Nobles offering massive rewards in hopes of conquering this incurable disease.
No matter if it was for profit or relationships, based on the six degrees of separation theory, it wouldn’t take long for his statements at the Brown Mansion to spread throughout the entire Great You world through the experts present.
Therefore, David Jones chose to publicly present the theory of three elixir formulas that could cure Blood Transformation Disease, in order to raise his value among the people of Great You and prepare for his entry into the Great You Emperor City.
“Sir, can non-patients of Blood Transformation Disease also take the high-level elixir formula and obtain the 50% chance of breaking through?” asked Martin Houston, unable to suppress his excitement.
“Of course not. Blood Transformation Disease is both a curse and a blessing. Those without the disease who take the Blood Dragon Emperor-Promoting Elixir will only die faster,” David Jones glanced at him and said solemnly.
He was joking. His goal was to enter the core of the Great You’s power, not to nurture more experts for Great You.
If Flowery Kingdom and Great You were enemies, wouldn’t he have become a sinner?!
Therefore, even if David Jones knew the chances of the two countries being enemies were slim, he didn’t dare to gamble!
“What a pity,” Martin Houston frowned upon hearing this. He didn’t possess an Emperor-level Saint Dragon’s Dragon Orb, but he knew where an Emperor-level Saint Dragon was hiding in the Spring Mansion.
Although slaying dragons in the Great You was a taboo, once he broke through to become a Ghost Emperor and acted with caution, offering a large enough reward, killing a Saint Dragon without any background would actually be easy to cover up.
At this moment, Clive Brown snapped out of his astonishment and looked at his granddaughter incredulously, his face showing a tinge of regret and bitter smile.
“Sir, using the mid-level elixir formula, [Blood-Stabilizing Elixir], should suffice. I genuinely lack the ability to acquire an Emperor Rank Dragon Pearl.”
Hearing Clive Brown’s slightly self-deprecating words, the experts present nodded sympathetically.
Despite looking like extraordinary experts in the eyes of ordinary Ghosts, they were merely ants in front of Emperor-level Saint Dragons, easily wiped out with a single breath.
Not to mention General Brown, even pooling the full strength of the city and even the surrounding ten cities, they still wouldn’t pose a threat to the Emperor-level Saint Dragon.
“Without an Emperor-level Saint Dragon’s Dragon Orb, a Saint Dragon’s heart will suffice. However, the quality decreases, and the potential transformation of the Blood Dragon Emperor-Promoting Elixir shrinks, reducing the probability of breaking through to Ghost Emperor to 30%,” David Jones conceded.
Although he was fishing for bigger rewards, it was somewhat unreasonable for Clive Brown, as a team captain of Team Kamui with a status comparable to the city lord, to be unable to produce even a Saint Dragon’s heart.
Clive Brown’s mouth twitched slightly, forcibly suppressing the urge to retort, and softly said, “My granddaughter lacks the good fortune, Blood-Stabilizing Elixir will suffice. I apologize for troubling you, Sir.”
David Jones took out pen and paper, wrote down the elixir ingredients required for the Blood-Stabilizing Elixir one by one, and handed the formula to him.
“As soon as the ingredients arrive, I can start refining. As for the consultation fee, I want three King-level elixirs. What do you think, General?”
“Of course, that’s perfectly acceptable.”
Clive Brown nodded hastily in response.
His granddaughter possessed a great Talent to become a king-level physician, so he would never easily give up on her treatment.
The price of three king-level elixirs might be a tremendous fortune for ordinary Ghost King Elites, but for him, it was only a small sum of money that made him feel a bit of pain.
Perhaps their conversation had disturbed her; Iris Brown frowned slightly and opened her bloodshot eyes.
When she saw David Jones’s face, she couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise: “Is it you?”
David Jones did not change his attitude because of the beautiful woman in front of him, whose pale face was even more captivating. His tone was as calm as ever: “What do you think, Miss? Do you still think I’m joking?”
Hearing this, Iris Brown subconsciously lowered her head to look at her heart, then glanced at her grandfather, who was silently signaling her. She bowed her head and chuckled bitterly.
“It’s my blindness that I didn’t recognize Mr. Jones. Please forgive my unintentional rudeness, sir.”
David Jones nodded slightly without meaning to be particular about it.
“Your illness can be cured. As soon as General Brown brings the herbs, I will start refining the elixir.”
After speaking, he directly got up and left the room, leaving behind a group of people who were experiencing a whirlwind of emotions but trying to appear calm.
…
General Brown’s actions were swift. In just an hour, he had prepared the herbs needed to refine the Blood-Stabilizing Elixir.
At the Brown Mansion, David Jones saw for the first time an alchemy room used by healers for refining external alchemy.
Perhaps it was due to the method of refining using metal and stone, the Alchemy Chamber, which covered several thousand square kilometers, was located at the foot of the mountain behind the mansion.
There were also quite a few low-level Fire Arcane Crystals exposed on the ground, indicating that not only was there an Arcane Crystal Mine here but also a place where earth fire converged.
“By using the terrain to build an alchemy room, I underestimated the method of external alchemy in the Flowery Kingdom!” After praising silently in his heart, David Jones began to prepare for refining the Blood-Stabilizing Elixir.
It has to be said that David Jones himself didn’t have the ability to cure Blood Transformation Disease.
After all, even a Venerable Healer (Great Grandmaster Pharmacist), who could make Blood Transformation Disease succumb, wouldn’t be able to resolve the issue. How could a Senior Alchemist like David Jones solve it?
However, David Jones’s strength lay in having an unparalleled teacher and a Grau senior brother with conflicting Five-Colored Dragon bloodlines.
What David Jones previously mentioned in public about Blood-Stabilizing Elixir and Blood Dragon Emperor-Promoting Elixir was actually a class VII SS tier elixir formula [Blood Fusion Elixir], which was researched by his teacher to solve the hidden problem of his Grau senior brother’s blood conflict.
Restricted by his pharmacy skills, David Jones could not refine the class VII SS tier Blood Fusion Elixir, but by understanding the essence of blood conflict and adapting accordingly, he could develop a class V elixir formula to cure Blood Transformation Disease.
As the strength of Overlord races reached class VII, if they wanted to solve the blood conflict issue for Grau senior brother, they naturally needed the class VII SS tier Blood Fusion Elixir. However, for the Ghosts who had contracted Blood Transformation Disease, they didn’t need such high-grade elixirs.
Since the founding of the Flowery Kingdom, all the ghosts diagnosed with Blood Transformation Disease were below the Ghost King level, and a class V elixir would be enough to fully cure them.
As for David Jones stating that he needed either ice or fire True Dragon Orbs as a drug lead, it was merely to resolve the issue of resources needed for Rainbow’s perfect Evolution.
As for the effect of the Blood Dragon Emperor-Promoting Elixir, David Jones didn’t lie; after taking the elixir, it could indeed increase the probability of the patients’ future breakthroughs to become a Ghost Emperor.
However, the difference between Blood Dragon Emperor-Promoting Elixir and Blood-Stabilizing Elixir was simply whether David Jones added a drop of Rossetti Lindwood’s essence blood into the Blood-Stabilizing Elixir.
