The King and the headmaster backed off after giving the Emperor the storage bags. The Emperor took the talisman and started reading it. He looked through the ingredients and how they interacted before coming to the conclusion that it did in fact work.
Without hesitation, he took the pill out and ate it. He didn't even spend a moment looking at the 5 magnificent lightning scars on the pill that was called veins.
In the midst of everyone's gaze, the emperor stood there as the pill dissolved inside of him and the intense water energy inside of it started flowing through him looking to go to the dantian.
They stopped right outside of the emperor's dantian, where he only had 4 different spiritual roots. Other than the neutral spiritual root, one was a Fire Spiritual root, another a Wood Spiritual root, and finally a very weak Yang spiritual root.
The energy repelled itself from all the other types of elemental energy, falling into the one neutral spiritual root, where it slowly started transforming the neutral spiritual root to have a water attribute to it.
It took about 10 whole seconds for the change to happen, but given the significance of the change, the emperor did not care how long it took.
As soon as the change was completed, he tried using a technique he knew. His Qi flowed through his veins, coming out into the palm as Water Qi which genuinely surprised him.
The Qi flowed out, but it did nothing. His skill did not activate.
"Huh?" the Emperor frowned for a second. He tried again and again, but the technique didn't work at all.
"Techniques that require regular Qi won't activate with Water Qi," Alex said. "Unless you've trained a water technique, it won't necessarily help you."
"Then there is no use to this pill, is there?" the Emperor asked as he looked toward Alex who had just walked up.
"Come on now, Dragon Emperor. You know that to be wrong yourself. Just because it doesn't help you, won't mean that it won't help others," he said. "Test how strong your spiritual root is at the moment. It's nearly comparable to Superior Water spiritual root."
"Give the pill to someone who has been learning water attribute skills their whole life with inferior spiritual roots, and you will make him feel like he found a new life."
"Give the pill to someone without water spiritual root, and he can also learn to use important water-related skills from early on. Aren't most healing techniques water related? One wouldn't have to look for others to help heal them. They can always heal themselves."
The Emperor couldn't help but frown at the fact that Alex was correct. The sheer amount of possibility the pill opened up by the mere fact that anyone could now have Water Spiritual root whenever they wanted was insane.
Especially the fact that most had not even considered after hearing about the pills.
Having a water spiritual root meant that you could also learn Water Dao in due time. If that information were to be made public at the moment, the amount of chaos it would cause in the market would truly be insane.
The Emperor clutched his fist in annoyance, but he couldn't lie that a truly amazing pill had been created here today.
"I concede. My poison pill is nowhere near as good as the Water pill King Alex has won. It is his victory."
The announcement left the crowd in awe as they couldn't believe that their emperor had lost. Their emperor, a man who had reached the unthinkable Level 10 of Alchemy knowledge of the Eastern Continent, had failed against another king.
"Do you want to give your victory speech?" the Emperor asked.
