On the other side, Shen Yanxiao followed Luo Ke to the wall at the end of the hall. Luo Ke rotated the relief sculpture there; after which, the wall opened in an instant and a pa.s.sage appeared in front of Shen Yanxiao. 

Sure enough, there was a secret pa.s.sage! 

Shen Yanxiao followed Luo Ke quietly into the pa.s.sage. 

Beyond the secret pa.s.sage was an extremely wide room. 

Within the wide room, more than a dozen men in black robes were busy. The whole room was filled with various tools. On the far right side of the room, a row of iron prisons was particularly striking. 

There were several numb-looking men in each iron prison. From left to right, the situation of each man in the iron prison was different. The man in the iron prison closest to the left was skinny and bony. His dry skin wrapped around his bones, as if all the water in his body had been drained. It was like a very dry body. 

The further the person to the right, the better their condition. Obviously, they were being experimented on based on the order of the iron prisons. 

"Sage Lin." At this time, Luo Ke curbed the complacency on his face and respectfully walked over to the head of the laboratory. 

"Um." Sage Lin appeared to be only in his forties, but the look in his eyes revealed a hint of gloom and ruthlessness. When he saw Luo Ke and Shen Yanxiao, he just perfunctorily greeted them in one hum. 

"Sage Wu asked me to take the medicine pill. I wonder if the medicine pill has also been refined well this time." Luo Ke sounded like a lackey as he said. 

"Wait for a moment. The people to be sent today haven’t arrived yet. We can extract the best medicine pill from people who are experiencing the dou qi and magic transplant for the first time. The palace master has also ordered that you send the medicinal pill to the young master after the two people have arrived." Sage Lin said. 

Luo Ke's eyes flashed with reluctance. To extract all the dou qi and magic of a person, it would take at least five procedures, and the best of them was the pill made during the first extraction. Because during this time, the dou qi and magic of the person were in the peak state. Therefore, whether it were the purity or its enhancing effect on one’s strength, it would be far better than the other four times.

Such a pill was known as a First Origin Pill by the people of the Broken Star Palace. Only those at the rank above the sage was eligible to enjoy it. It was basically impossible for Luo Ke, this shrimp soldier who could not reach the high and accept the low, to eat such pill. 

Luo Ke, who was full of resistance towards the young master, had an expression as ugly as if he had eaten a lump of stool when he heard that he was going to give the First Origin Pill to the young master. 

Luo Ke was not stupid enough as to be incurable. Although he was anxious to crush someone to ashes, his face was still a pleasant one. 

Everyone knew that it was very important to have a good relations.h.i.+p with people in the laboratory of the Broken Star Palace. 

It was them who would decide whether the pill you would take was the one first extracted. 

The later the medicine pill was extracted, the weaker its effect. Generally, the last extracted medicine pill would be sent to the newcomers who had just joined the Broken Star Palace. The effect of that medicine pill was very poor and could only play a very minor role. Su He stayed in the Broken Star Palace for more than 200 years without a great breakthrough. It was also because the medicine pill he had been taking was of the lowest grade. 

Only by pa.s.sing the first test could they have a chance to get a better pill. 

As for Luo Ke, at best, he could only get the third-extracted medicine pill. If he wanted to get a pill with greater power, he must further climb his way up.
