The onlookers were brimming with curiosity, genuinely puzzled as to why that young girl could be so blindly confident. Even with large lung capacity, one couldn’t simply boast like that!
Over two thousand third-level Immortal Pills in less than ten days?
For a moment, everyone began to suspect that the young girl had misspoken, and what she intended to say was years, not days.
“Alright, everyone step back. I’m starting now!
Li Cheng waved his hand, cutting off the crowd’s chatter.
There was no point in arguing over such matters; they would soon see how long
it would actually take to complete the Alchemy.
As his words fell, Li Cheng had already taken out the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod; the body of the tripod expanded to the size of a small hill and swallowed all the materials.
This scene left everyone dumbfounded.
They were all Immortals, even if they had never refined pills themselves, hadn’t they seen Alchemy before?
Even those Immortal Kings, Immortal Venerables, and Immortal Emperors of the past had never been so reckless when refining pills.
The Alchemy Dao Immortal Masters present were all shaking their heads and sighing in pity. What a waste of so many Profound Spirit Pill materials!
“Really, just because he received the inheritance of the Five Elements Great Emperor, he acts so recklessly?”
“Even mortals making herbal medicine pay attention to measurements. Is this guy deliberately causing our Five Elements Elf Tribe to lose out on Profound Spirit Pill materials?”
“Stop talking, he gave our people the Five Elements Meridian Pearl. For such a great kindness, what does the loss of some Immortal Elixirs matter?”
The crowd communicated through voice transmission, all wearing expressions
of regret.
“Senior sister, I often saw the elders of the Fire Elf Tribe refining pills, but compared to Master’s techniques, those elders are truly narrow-minded!” Yan Yao whispered.
“Huh? What do you mean ‘narrow-minded’?” Ling Xi asked curiously.
“When they refine pills, they only use small amounts of materials, unlike our
Master who’s so magnanimous.” Admiration filled Yan Yao’s animated eyes; it seemed in her view, this was the proper way to conduct Alchemy.
Although the two women spoke softly, everyone present was an Immortal, who wouldn’t hear them?
For a moment, the Alchemy Dao Immortal Masters from the Fire Elf Tribe’s mouths twitched harshly. It was all Yanqing’s fault!
If it weren’t for the distinctions Yanqing made within the Fire Elf Tribe, categorizing tribe members into different levels, Yan Yao would have been able to receive a variety of education like the pureblooded elves and wouldn’t be so shortsighted now.
No one understood why Master Li had chosen such a young girl to receive the Five Elements Meridian Pearl of the Five Elements Great Emperor.
Alas! To think too much on it was to weep!
“Stop talking, Master has started. Watch closely and perceive with your heart! ”
Ling Xi said with a smile.
Li Cheng stood atop the mountain, his Immortal Fire carrying the Rule of Fire, and had begun the Alchemy process.
Under the control of his powerful Immortal Sense, there was not a single mistake as the essences of various Immortal Elixirs slowly merged.
Four hours passed, and in the sky, the Thunder law became active!
“It seems to be gathering for a Pill Tribulation. How could a Pill Tribulation possibly occur here? A strange occurrence indeed!” Elder Qingfeng murmured to himself.
in this place, producing Immortal Pills was a common event; there had never been a Pill Tribulation before.
“Indeed, it truly is the precursor of Tribulation Thunder gathering. This is unprecedented!” The crowd was filled with amazement and uncertainty.
Whoosh…
At that moment, countless Profound Spirit Pills flew out from the Purple Void jade Emperor’s Tripod, forming a cloud of Immortal Pills that hovered above the great tripod.
Except for Ling Xi and Yan Yao, everyone was left speechless!
“Almost twenty-five thousand top-grade Profound Spirit Pills; how is this possible?” The First Elder of the Fire Elf Tribe felt his heart stop for a moment, staring incredulously at the cloud of pills.
“That’s not the main point. The main thing is there are many of high quality with Pill Patterns and halos around them; those are King Grade, Emperor
Grade!”
“just like in the records, I didn’t think Emperor Grade could truly exist, and the records also say that Emperor Grade can attract Pill Tribulations, and crossmg the Pill Tribulation could result in achieving Emperor Grade!”
“That’s right, and Emperor Grade Immortal Pills have incredibly strong spiritual nature. If they were to develop Spiritual Wisdom, they could cultivate just like monsters and spirits.”
The crowd gradually became tumultuous; they had grown accustomed to the emergence of Immortal Pills but had never witnessed such a terrifying scene. To refine so many Immortal Pills at once, and all of them of the highest quality —that was simply inconceivable!
Even more astonishing were the numerous Emperor Grade pills, something only recorded in ancient texts!
In the heavens, the tribulation clouds had already gathered, forming a whirlpool like a giant beast, with Thunder Law leaping about, the overwhelming might of the Immortal sweeping across the world!
Li Cheng’s eyes lit up, “Such rich Thunder Law, I can’t miss this opportunity!” Without hesitation, Li Cheng flew above the Immortal Pills, ready to welcome the descent of the Tribulation Thunder!
This was the best chance to grasp the Thunder Law, how could he let it slip away?
Seeing this, Elder Qingfeng called out, “Benefactor, do you need us to share the burden of the Tribulation Thunder with you?”
In their eyes, Li Cheng must have wanted to help those Emperor Grade Immortal Pills cross the tribulation.
Li Cheng waved his hand and, without a word, looked up at the swirling vortex that enveloped the sky and earth.
It’s been so long since he’d acquired just ten paths of Thunder Law; how many more could he gain by leveraging this Pill Tribulation?
As the Tribulation Thunder fell, Li Cheng closed his eyes and attuned himself to the sensation, “Enlightenment!”
The next moment, it was as if Li Cheng had entered a world of lightning and thunder, with the Thunder Law unfolding before him.
“Elder Qingfeng, how much do you know about Master Li? He’s entered a state of Unity of Heaven and Man during the Immortal Pill’s tribulation crossing; he’s clearly in a moment of Enlightenment!” Shan Qian exclaimed in astonishment.
“My understanding of our Benefactor… seems to be no more than yours. I am equally surprised. Let’s continue watching,” Elder Qingfeng coughed dryly. “What a pity, the first path of Tribulation Thunder fell, and more than two thousand Emperor Grade Profound Spirit Pills are gone!” Yanqing sighed quietly to herself.
If these pills were refined, the Fire Elf Tribe could take half, but to lose so many at once, it was naturally regrettable.
The elders of the Fire Elf Tribe looked at Yanqing in unison, their hearts filled with silent lament-they had revealed their stance too early!
“First Elder, Yanqing has done a great service for the tribe. Maybe we should reconsider the matter of changing the Clan Leader?” someone suggested via a psychic message.
The First Elder sighed deeply and responded, “Maybe we should rethink it. We’ll talk after Master Li finishes refining pills and departs!”
Soon after, the second path of Tribulation Thunder fell, instantly destroying over four thousand pills, causing another wave of heartache among the onlookers.
The third path of Tribulation Thunder was even more ferocious, outright annihilating tens of thousands!
Everyone’s hearts bled at the sight of it-these were Emperor Grade Profound Spirit Pills after all, and their five clans couldn’t even produce a single one! Yet at this moment, they could only watch helplessly as more than sixteen thousand vanished!
However, the next moment, something astonishing happened. The Emperor Grade Profound Spirit Pills seemed to be stimulated by something and began rotating on their own, stirring up the remaining Pill Qi lingering in the sky!
In an instant, whirlpools formed around the Emperor Grade Pills, with countless streams of Pill Qi being absorbed into them!
“This… This is how Emperor Grade pills are created!
The crowd wasn’t foolish and understood at once!
Before long, the tribulation clouds had completely dissipated, and the sky cleared up, leaving only the pills floating above the massive Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod.
Li Cheng casually grabbed fifteen Emperor Grade Profound Spirit Pills, then waved the remainder towards the five Clan Leaders.
“Over eight thousand high-quality, more than five hundred King Grade, and six Emperor Grade-are all of these for us?” The five Clan Leaders did not rush to collect them but turned their gaze to Li Cheng, as Elder Qingfeng inquired.
Li Cheng nodded, “You all divide them up amongst yourselves; I’m going to try over there.”
“Not bad at all, although the time was brief, you must have gained a lot, right?” Noticing Li Cheng approach the graveyard, Immortal Emperor Tianyuan asked through psychic communication.
Li Cheng nodded, “Not bad, I’ve grasped a bit of the Thunder Law, but not much.”
in that brief moment, he had grasped twenty paths, not a lot, but he’d never progressed this quickly before.
“Senior, now that my cultivation has improved, I might have a chance to refine it further by another ten percent; I’ll give it a try!” Li Cheng shifted the topic.
