Shen Clan
After Shen Kang's funeral was over, the elders and the rest of the clan who attended the event began to return to their respective residences.
Meanwhile, at the Second Elder's residence, he seemed to be discussing a fairly large problem that seemed to be until a few hours later it had only begun to subside and the Fourth Elder.
The Shen Clan Patriarch's Residence
After the funeral procession was over, a handsome middle-aged man was waiting for a sick woman in his room. The woman was very beautiful, but the beauty was covered with sadness and pallor as she found herself in extreme pain.
The two people were none other than Patriarch Shen Qi and his ailing wife, Yui Ran Qui. His wife found herself in severe pain after drinking an antiarist poison.
The antiarist poison is a very deadly poison. This poison has a way of working by interfering with the circulation of the Qi flow, and draining the life span of someone who drinks it very quickly.
This poison came from a very poisonous tree and became the nest of monsters in a mountain in the lower realms that contained a dimensional portal connecting it to the mortal realm. This tree is commonly known as the upas tree (antiaris toxicaria).
"Uhuk!! Uhuk!!"
"Qui'er, drink this honey!" said Patriarch Shen Qi, while drinking the honey of the black dwarf bee.
Black dwarf bee honey has very great properties. This honey can increase life time and support the flow of Qi so much smoother. And with this honey, Yui Ran Qui can still survive until now, because usually someone who finds this poison only lasts less than 1 day.
"Gege, I miss Li'er so much" Yui Ran Qui said as she shed her tears at the homesickness of her son, Shen Li.
"I know it's Qui'er, but you have to heal first don't think too much, because I'm sure Li'er doesn't want his mother to always worry about him" Shen Qui replied to calm the grieving Yui Ran Qui.
There was actually such a deep sense of longing that Shen Qi felt in his son. But he did not show it in front of his sick wife, because he did not want to add to his wife's worries and did not want the pain to get worse.
"How can I not worry about my son?!" yui Ran Qui's reply grew weeping, but the crying soon subsided as her husband kissed her forehead.
"Calm Qui'er! There is me who is always beside you, for now you rest first" said Shen Qi who was only replied by a nod by his wife.
Shen Qi was so enraged to learn that his wife was being deliberately poisoned by someone, that he vowed to hunt down and torture the person to death.
After his wife slept, Shen Qi enveloped his wife then rushed down not wanting to disturb his wife's rest time.
In a shop
It was getting late, 3 people appeared in a shop from this morning and had not moved because it was like discussing something complicated. Those three people were none other than Shen Li, Jia Ru and Jia Yu.
Shen Li now knew that the one who poisoned his mother was the Second Elder and the Fourth Elder who conspired to rid his father of Uncle Ru.
Shen Li was so enraged to hear that, that he almost leaked out an extremely powerful true aura, but it was fortunate that he was still able to master it.
Shen Li seemed pensive at the thought of something, Uncle Ru and Jia Yu who saw it only understood the state of Shen Li. Because after all they knew what Shen Li looked like very well.
What they did not know was, in fact, Shen Li was currently talking to his system.
"The system displays my status" Shen Li said in his heart but it can only be listened to by his system.

"System? Do you know what poison my mother went through? if you know if there's an antidote?"
[As Uncle Ru explained earlier, it looks like your master's mother was exposed to antiarist poison. A poison that comes from the lower realm of masters. And for the antidote you can use the divine level healing pill and the 'argyrhoxipium' flower essence then you dissolve it into the heavenly water of the lord]
[the system sells all the resources it needs, do you want to buy it?]
"Well I'll buy everything and 50 each!" inner Shen Li was fast.
[Ding~ managed to purchase 50 divine level healing pills for 50 billion system points]
[Ding~ managed to buy 50 'argyrhoxipium' flower essence extract for 20 billion system points]
[Ding~ managed to buy eternal heavenly water for 100 billion system points]
[Sisa system points : unlimited (∞)]
[All items have been stored in the master's storage ring]
"Can't I distill it right now?" shen Li asked his system, as he did not want to slow down his journey anymore.
[Can't be master, because master doesn't yet have a divine level alchemist job]
[If you are in a hurry, you can add the 'alchemy' feature in the system menu using your Primordial skill]
Shen Li's eyes widened suddenly to the surprise of Uncle Ru and Jia Yu beside him.
"What's Li'er?" uncle Ru asked to see the look on Shen Li's face change all of a sudden.
"There's nothing uncle! I just remembered something that I forgot!" shen Li's reply reasoned. "You two wait here, I'll be gone for a minute!" shen Li continued without waiting for the answer from the two people.
"Ha-Be careful on the way!" Said Jia Yu who had not seen Shen Li there. "Do you know something why Shen Li suddenly acted like that?" he continued asking his father.
"Okay, I don't know either. Most importantly we should now wait for him here and trust Shen Li" replied Uncle Ru.
The Darkness
Shen Li who disappeared earlier had now been at the mouth of the cave that was in the abyss of death just now. He rushed into the ancient dragon hideout first.
"Is that true what you said?! then what's the function of 'alchemy' later?" shen Li asked no more pleasantries.
[Truly sir. The function of the 'alchemy' menu in the system is to concoct all high-tier pills automatically so that the master does not have to bother concocting himself, but the pills produced only poke at the divine level.]
"Well then, I'll start!"
Shen Li then took a meditative stance, then focused his mind on activating his Primordial skill to create an 'alchemy' menu in his system
Swush!!
The wind suddenly blew out from within Shen Li's body, slowly appearing a golden white flame coming out from his growing body.
Because of Shen Li's actions, the air in that place became extremely dense. In his mind he imagined a very sturdy alchemy furnace to be able to withstand the Primordial Fire his milliard would use as its fuel.
After a while he succeeded, creating the 'alchemy' menu he wanted.
"Finally so too!" muttered.
"System, now begin to concoct medicine for the mother, use all the resources needed!" shen Li's orders.
[Okay sir.]
[Starting the process of making poison downing pills]
[Starting alchemy]
