933: Chapter 934 Pill Formation in Four Days

Inside the Secret Chamber, time seemed to lose its meaning.

Yao Delong sat cross-legged before the xuanhuang creation cauldron, his entire being seemingly merging into one with the cauldron, the fire, and those nine main ingredients.

His eyes were slightly closed, showing no ripples of emotion; only an unimaginable focus was concentrated between his brows.

His vast Divine Thought, like invisible threads, precisely controlled the nine strands of Origin Essence Fire split from the Glazed Hearth Fire,

acting like nine of the most skillful craftsmen, with the most appropriate flame temperature and the most perfect rhythm,

continuously refining and merging the gradually forming pill embryo within the cauldron.

Under his guidance, the nine completely different Origin medicinal powers did not conflict;

instead, like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, they blended and permeated strand by strand, forming an extremely complex yet incredibly harmonious nine-colored energy vortex inside the Pill Furnace.

An indescribable, mysterious pill aura—containing the power to nourish the Divine Soul, cleanse the dao foundation, and see through delusions—slowly spread out.

Standing quietly outside the door, Long Yu Old Ancestor, who was quietly perceiving with her Divine Thought, no longer felt any ripples in her heart, leaving only a numb sense of shock.

This kid's Divine Thought, which was too thick for the Void Refining Realm, his rock-steady Origin Foundation,

and his precision to the micrometer over the flames and medicinal properties... it simply subverted her understanding of a "Genius."

'Forget it, it seems this kid really is confident. My presence here might actually distract him.'

Long Yu thought to herself, decisively withdrawing her Divine Thought and silently retreating further from the quiet room. She sat cross-legged, closing her eyes to regulate her breathing and wait patiently.

Time flew by, and a day passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside the Pill Furnace, at the core of that nine-colored energy vortex,

a round and full pill embryo, crystal clear throughout and with the faint appearance of nine exquisite apertures inside, had completely formed!

The extremely dense pill fragrance was perfectly locked in by the xuanhuang creation cauldron, with only strands of rosy light leaking through the gaps in the cauldron walls, announcing its extraordinary nature.

At this moment, a flash of near-manic determination crossed Yao Delong's eyes!

For an ordinary alchemist, successfully merging these nine main ingredients into the pill embryo of a nine aperture spirit nurturing pill

would already be the Peak of their life, enough to look down on all others. But what he wanted was more than that!

"pill pattern engraving!" Yao Delong shouted inwardly, his Divine Thought suddenly condensing tenfold!

He carefully controlled a strand of the gentlest Glazed Pure Fire, as if holding an invisible divine brush.

The tip of the brush dipped into the purest pill Qi and Origin medicinal power of the pill embryo itself, and he began on the surface of that crystal-clear pill embryo,

sketching extremely slowly yet with incomparable precision!

The first stroke fell!

Buzz!

The pill embryo shook slightly, and the faintly visible nine exquisite apertures inside seemed to come alive a bit, the emitted pill aura instantly increasing by ten percent!

The second stroke was sketched!

An extremely fine yet mysterious dark-golden pattern prototype appeared on the surface of the pill embryo!

The spirituality of the entire pill embryo seemed to be ignited, becoming active!

The third stroke, the fourth stroke...

Every time the brush of Divine Thought fell, it was like dancing on a tightrope!

With the slightest carelessness, if the force was a fraction too heavy, the balance of the violent medicinal power inside the pill embryo would be broken, causing an instant cauldron explosion;

if the force was a fraction too light, it would be impossible to leave any mark on the surface of the incredibly tough Eighth Order Peak Treasure Pill!

This required micro-manipulation of Divine Thought and a grasp of medicinal balance that could be called reaching the pinnacle!

If it were a few months ago, Yao Delong would never have dared to take such a risk.

But now, his vast Divine Thought at the Void Refining Peak, combined with the terrifying insight into the essence of energy brought by his Perfection in Herbal Path Comprehension,

and the intangible experience accumulated from refining high-level Medicinal Pills countless times, gave him the confidence to take a gamble!

Three days passed at a snail's pace during Yao Delong's focused engraving.

Fine beads of sweat broke out on his forehead, his mind highly tensed, every stroke consuming a huge amount of mental energy.

Under his near-obsessive persistence, those dark-golden pill patterns slowly took shape one after another,

finally leaving five complex and mysterious, interconnected patterns on the surface of the pill embryo!

Five pill patterns!

The aura of the pill embryo, the moment the engraving was completed, surged to an incredible degree!

The rosy light was blinding, and the pill aura was so thick it almost became physical! Even the xuanhuang creation cauldron emitted a low hum!

Rumble—!

Outside the Secret Chamber, above the Lotus Pond Dao Palace Secret Realm which was originally clear for thousands of miles, endless black clouds suddenly gathered without warning!

The heavy tribulation cloud was like billions of demonic mountains pressing down, and a terrifying pressure from heaven and earth suddenly descended!

Blinding lightning frantically grew and intertwined deep within the clouds: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, silver, white, gray, gold, scarlet, black...

A full thirteen destructive colors swirled and intertwined within!

"What?!"

Long Yu Old Ancestor, who had been closing her eyes to regulate her breathing, snapped them open, an unbelievable and horrified light shooting from her eyes!

She stood up with a "swish," looking up at the thirteen-colored tribulation cloud that blotted out the sun!

"Only four days?! The Pill Tribulation of an Eighth Order Peak Treasure Pill was triggered in just four days?! And... it's actually thirteen-colored?!"

Despite her two thousand years of experience, her scalp tingled with shock! This kid's refining speed was simply illogical!

Even more terrifying was that the Pill Lightning triggered was thirteen-colored, representing extremely high quality!

The medicinal power of this nine aperture spirit nurturing pill was probably infinitely close to the Ninth Order!

"Kid! Focus on condensing the pill! Leave this Pill Lightning to this Old Ancestor!"

Long Yu's cold voice instantly resounded through heaven and earth, carrying an unquestionable dominance!

Her figure flashed, and she had already appeared in the Void Realm, facing the terrifying tribulation cloud that was about to strike!

Boom-crack—!

The first bolt of tribulation lightning, as thick as a water bucket and containing thirteen types of destruction Laws, tore through the sky like a Heavenly God's whip of wrath, striking down fiercely!

"Hmph!" Long Yu snorted coldly, raising her slender hand and striking out seemingly casually with a palm toward that world-destroying lightning!

Buzz!

A giant ice crystal palm print, condensed from pure Taiyin Law, appeared out of thin air,

crystal clear and emitting a chill that froze time and space, it crashed against the tribulation lightning!

Sizzle—!

The thirteen-colored tribulation lightning, powerful enough to easily kill a Body Integration Early Stage Cultivator, hit the ice crystal palm print,

sounding like a branding iron dropped into snow water, emitting a piercing melting sound,

the violent lightning light was frozen and annihilated layer by layer by the extreme cold, finally dispersing as a flurry of ice shards!

Effortless and elegant!

Boom! Boom! Boom!Pairs of even more ferocious thirteen-colored tribulation lightnings struck down one after another!

Immediately after, the second, third, fourth... even more ferocious thirteen-colored tribulation lightnings struck down one after another!

Each one was thicker than the last, and each contained even stronger destructive power!

Long Yu Old Ancestor's figure moved through the lightning, sometimes flicking out a condensed starlight,

or breathing out a gust of astral wind containing space-cutting force. With every movement,

she neutralized the Pill Lightning that was enough to destroy the Divine Souls of countless Cultivators, one by one!

"Boring! Disperse for this Old Ancestor!" After easily taking nine bolts of tribulation lightning, Long Yu seemed to find it a bit tedious and made a grasping motion with her jade hand!

Buzz!

An ancient longsword, its entire body shimmering with flowing light and its blade seemingly woven from Yin and Yang Qi, appeared in her hand out of thin air!

The sword blade vibrated, and a terrifying Sword Intent that could slay Yin and Yang and split open Chaos soared into the sky, instantly overpowering the pressure of the tribulation clouds!
