Chapter 163 The Pills are Made in Five Colors
The moment the black dragon appeared, an aura of destruction and oppression enveloped the square. Not only Xuan Kongzi could not sit still, but the crowd in the field all stood up and stared at the black dragon in amazement.
The dragon was circling, and some of the weaker onlookers could not even control the beast fire in their bodies. Many flames of different colors appeared in the square, and the flames were slightly bent towards the black dragon, as if they were worshiping it.
"The Emperor of Fire? This is a strange fire!"
Seeing the scene of thousands of fires worshiping, the onlookers were immediately excited. For most of the alchemists, this was the first time they saw a living strange fire.
The roaring black fire dragon appeared for only a moment before it entered the medicine cauldron. However, the shocking scene of the thousands of fires worshipping it lingered in everyone's mind for a long time.
"Master Xiao is indeed an eighth-grade medicine master. He holds the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron and even has the strange fire of the Lord of Ten Thousand Fires!" The
medicine cauldron and the flames that Xiao Yun brought out were like the line of fire that ignited a barrel of explosives, which made the crowd of onlookers boil. Only then did they fully believe that this extremely young boy in front of them could really refine an eighth-grade pill!
On the high platform, Xuan Kongzi also calmed down his good mood, sat back in his seat, turned his head and looked at Yao Lao who was full of pride, and sighed: "Old man, you two, master and disciple, are more amazing than each other."
The medicine cauldron on the Tianding list and the strange fire on the strange fire list are the lifelong pursuits of all pharmacists. Even for the eighth-grade medicine masters, most people only have one of them, or even none.
Yao Lao's possession of the Black Demon Cauldron and the Bone Spirit Cold Fire has already made many people jealous and crazy. As a result, his disciple is even more evil. The medicine cauldron is also one of the Tianding, and the strange fire is ranked sixth on the strange fire list.
...
Xiao Yun didn't know the reaction of the crowd. At this moment, he had already swallowed the Concentration and Calming Pill given by Yao Lao and started to refine the pill.
This time, the elixir he was going to refine was made from the poison he had bought for Little Medical Immortal at the trade fair a few days ago. It was called the Seven Treasures Poison Pill for the Transformation of the Spirit, and it was of the lower eighth grade, just enough to pass the test.
The process of refining the Seven Treasures Poison Pill for the Transformation of the Spirit flashed through his mind, and Xiao Yun exhaled lightly. He stretched out his hand, picked out a few of the many herbs suspended beside him, and threw them directly into the flames.
As soon as the herbs entered the medicine cauldron, they quickly withered under the terrifying temperature of the Eight Desolate Destruction Flame. Drops of green medicinal essence permeated the surface of each herb, and slid down the roots into the flames.
The other herb was shrinking continuously. The herb that was originally as long as an arm became the size of a palm under the burning flames. In the end, it was even just a few grains of medicinal powder. In just
five or six minutes, Xiao Yun extracted the medicinal essences from these herbs. Then, with a thought, the blazing fire split into several flames, which entangled the essences of different colors and placed them in the corners of the medicine cauldron.
Afterwards, Xiao Yun once again took out a few herbs from the many herbs, and quickly refined them according to his own rhythm...
On the stands of the square, the crowd of onlookers looked at the floating stone platform, and were all amazed by Xiao Yun's smooth and flowing refining techniques. They were immediately addicted to it and couldn't extricate themselves.
Refining pills is an extremely tedious thing. The higher the level of the pills, the more time it consumes.
According to convention, if the person who refines an eighth-grade pill is an old-fashioned master of refining pills, it will take five or six days. If the person is not skilled, it may take ten days or half a month.
As for this situation, the three giants of Danta are also very clear. When promoting it, it has already been stated that the pill refined this time is of the eighth grade.
Therefore, most of the people who can come to Shengdan City to watch have a cultivation level above Dou Wang, and they have the patience to watch for half a month.
Fortunately, Xiao Yun is not a pharmacist like the latter, so he does not need people to accompany him for half a month.
Just five days have passed, and Xiao Yun has successfully extracted all the medicinal essences. There are no accidents in the process. On the seventh day, he is about to fuse the medicinal essences into pills.
In the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron, the black flame vortex rotates counterclockwise, and a ball of colorful liquid is constantly churning in it, being burned crazily by the flames.
This method of refining medicine is a new method that Xiao Yun has learned in the past few days by reading a large number of essays by pharmacists. He calls it: vortex refining medicine!
Different from what Yao Lao taught before, when using vortex refining medicine, he can make the temperature of the flame more in line with the essence of the medicinal properties.
Because the temperature required for the fusion of each kind of medicinal essence is different, Xiao Yun forms the flame into a vortex, and then relies on the precise control of the spirit realm soul to make the medicinal essence group get a more suitable flame temperature.
Of course, this method is only suitable for pharmacists above the eighth level, because the hard condition is the spirit realm soul. Only by breaking through to the spirit realm can one truly control the flame freely and know the situation of each part of the medicine cauldron.
"Tsk tsk, this kid, it seems he has found his own way." Yao Lao stood up from his chair, twisting his body that had become a little stiff due to long-term inactivity, and sighed.
"What? So you didn't teach him this method of refining medicine?" Hearing this, Xuan Kongzi was surprised.
"Of course not, since I said goodbye to you last time, I was attacked by the Soul Palace and my physical body died. In the past few years, I have been hiding in the Bone Inflammation Ring in the form of a soul."
"It was not until a few days ago that I was resurrected by this kid. I had been sleeping for so long, how could I have the time to study new methods of refining medicine."
Yao Lao shook his head and said slowly: "If he used my method of refining medicine, Xiao Yun would be like me, and it would be difficult for him to break through the ninth rank in his lifetime. Now that he has found his own way, I believe he will surpass me soon."
"You do have confidence in him." Xuan Kongzi also stood up and said softly, "Ninth grade? Even for a few of us, we are still one step away, but it will take at least several decades to take this step."
The three giants of Danta, like Yao Lao, are all masters of eighth-grade peak medicine refining, but no one can guarantee that he can step into the ninth grade in this lifetime.
And Yao Lao actually said that Xiao Yun will soon surpass him? How long is this soon? Five years? Ten years?
"Haha, old man, don't underestimate him, miracles often happen to him." Yao Lao smiled slightly, turned his head, and said to Xuan Kongzi, "Before meeting him, do you dare to believe that someone can refine eighth-grade elixirs before the age of twenty?"
Hearing this, Xuan Kongzi smiled bitterly and shook his head without saying anything.
Before meeting Xiao Yun, if someone told him that a person could break through the eighth level before the age of 20, he would definitely slap the person twice to save him from daydreaming all day.
"Well, you two old guys have been fighting for your whole lives, and now you still don't stop. Xiao Yun is about to condense into a pill, sit down and watch!"
Xuan Yi, the only woman among the three giants of Danta, looked at the two people standing in front and said unhappily.
After Xuan Yi said this, Yao Lao and the other smiled at each other, then sat down again and continued to watch quietly.
...
On the suspended stone platform, Xiao Yun sat on the ground with his eyes slightly closed, but his soul power was all over the medicine cauldron. Even the slightest reaction could not escape his perception.
Under the perception of the soul power, a pill prototype with some pits was burning on the flames. Around it, medicinal essence continued to merge into it, filling the small pits on it.
As the last small ball of medicinal essence merged into the surface of the pill, the pill prototype, which was originally full of scars, finally became round and smooth.
At the same time, the pill burst out with a strong suction force, swallowing up all the dark flames in the medicine cauldron in just an instant.
"This pill is done!"
Under the gaze of countless people, Xiao Yun slowly stood up and flicked his finger. The lid of the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron was directly opened. Suddenly, a shocking energy beam shot out from the medicine cauldron into the sky.
"Boom!"
The sky and the earth changed instantly. The sky was originally cloudless, but now a group of dark clouds flew in and swirled around the beam of light. Lightning flashed in it. The
thick thunderclouds swirled along the energy beam. To people far away, it was like a huge tornado, and the energy between heaven and earth was stirred by it.
Looking at this doomsday-like scene, the originally noisy square suddenly became extremely quiet, as if it was afraid of angering the heavens.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the thundercloud at the end of the beam of light.
Under everyone's gaze, the originally pitch-black thunderclouds were surging, and then they turned blue, silver, and red, dyeing the thunderclouds gorgeously.
"Three-color thunder! Master Xiao really refined an eighth-grade elixir!"
"Master Xiao is truly a god in our elixir refining world! I doubted him before, damn it!"
The appearance of the three-color thunderclouds immediately set the square on fire. The crowd, who were originally silent, instantly became excited, and they were full of praise for Xiao Yun. Some even wanted to fly to the suspended stone platform to watch.
Unfortunately, as soon as this action appeared, the elder Danta, who was guarding the stands, pressed it to the ground and rubbed it.
"Huh!" Seeing the appearance of the three-color pill thunder, Xiao Yixian also breathed a sigh of relief, while Cao Ying beside her stared at Xiao Yun with a complicated look.
In fact, when she felt Xiao Yun's soul a few days ago, she knew that the former could refine an eighth-grade pill, but when she really saw it, she was still shocked.
"No! Look, the thundercloud is still rolling!"
Just when everyone thought that Xiao Yun had refined an eighth-grade three-color pill, a sharp-eyed person pointed at the thundercloud above and shouted.
"What? The thundercloud is still rolling?" Everyone quickly shifted their gaze from the young man to the sky above, and indeed saw that the three-color thundercloud was still rolling.
"Is it not three colors? Is it four colors? That's the eighth-grade intermediate!"
Under the gaze of everyone, a brilliant golden light suddenly tore through the dark clouds, as dazzling as the sun, and filled the earth with golden light.
"Four colors!"
Looking at the gorgeous thunderclouds in the sky, the excitement of the entire square suddenly increased again, and countless people jumped up from their chairs, like crazy.
But before they could finish their excitement, a noble purple light appeared on the thunderclouds in the sky, like the sharpest sword in the world, splitting the gorgeous thunderclouds in half.
"Five-color Dan Lei!"
When the purple appeared, the crowd jumped up and down, their faces flushed, as if they had drunk a strong liquor. They shouted, crossed layers of obstacles, and jumped towards Xiao Yun like moths to a flame.
For a moment, even the elder Danta could not hold back the crowd. Seeing the crowd getting closer and closer to the floating stone platform, Xuan Kongzi finally took action.
"Hmph!" A cold snort came out of his nose, and the momentum from the peak of Dou Zun swept in all directions, knocking down all those who wanted to rush to the floating stone platform.
"Everyone, watch carefully! Otherwise, get out of Shengdan City!"
The majestic and deep voice resounded throughout the square, calming down the crazy crowd of onlookers. They flew back to their respective positions, but their eyes were still fixed on Xiao Yun.
In fact, it was no wonder that they were crazy. Even in Shengdan City, you can only see eight-grade pills a few times a year. Even if there are, they are only two or three colors of pill thunder.
For many people, the five-color pill thunder is even more of a legendary pill thunder. Now it appears in front of them, and the person who refined it is still a handsome young man. How can they suppress the excitement and madness in their hearts?
