Chapter 238: Alchemy Begins, Talking about the Ninth-Rank Alchemist, Swallowing Thunderclouds, Nine-Colored Pill Thunder! (Two in One)

Bang!Bang!Bang!
The competition began with Wang Tianming's announcement.

The atmosphere on the alchemy table froze instantly, and then, numerous medicine cauldrons flashed out and finally landed heavily on each alchemy stone table.

The low sound of metal and iron continued to echo in the sky.

Looking at the densely packed medicinal cauldrons, there was a low uproar in the square. This was probably the first time they had seen so many high-quality medicinal cauldrons appear at the same time.

After most of the alchemists summoned their medicine cauldrons, a series of "puff puff" sounds were heard in the sky.

Suddenly, colorful flames rose up. From a distance, they looked like fireworks, making the sky unusually gorgeous.

Although none of the participants in this competition had any strange fire, they still had flames condensed from various special secret methods.

After all, someone who has reached the level of an eighth-grade alchemist is not a simple person.

Wang Tianming returned to the referee's stand and was not in a hurry.

It takes at least ten days to half a month to refine an eighth-grade elixir, from processing the materials to condensing the elixir.

This is just the beginning, don't rush.

"This time, it's a bit unfair for the younger and older generations to compete on the same stage."

Since Xuan Kongzi already had the Strange Fire, he was not very interested in the fight for the Strange Fire, so he did not participate, but was invited to serve as a referee.

This time, there were more than a dozen people from Danta participating.

Including the other two giants of Waidan Tower - Xuanyi and Tianleizi.

Of course, the most important Danta personnel participating in this competition are not the two giants of Waidanta.

There were six elders from Xiaodan Tower participating.

Among them, the three with the weakest strength are all at the peak of Dou Zun, and there are two with the strength of Half Saint. The strongest has reached the level of Two-star Dou Saint.

Even the two-star Dousheng-level warriors were attracted here, which shows the attraction of the strange fire.

This time, Danta has brought out all its talents and is determined to obtain the strange fire.

Unfortunately, the only ones who can compete with them are the Medicine Clan.

There are more than a dozen people from the Medicine Clan participating in this event.

The strongest among them has reached the three-star Dousheng level, and his cultivation is even higher than the strongest in Danta.

"Yao Wan Gui!"

Yao Lao looked at the three-star Dousheng strongman from the Yao clan with gnashing teeth, hatred evident in his eyes.

"Teacher, do you have a grudge against that old man?"

Xiao Yan, who was standing by, noticed that Yao Lao looked unhappy and asked with concern.

Yao Lao clenched his fists slightly and was silent for a moment. Then he said in a hoarse voice, "I am originally from the Yao Clan. It was that old fellow who didn't know right from wrong and expelled me from the Yao Clan..."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded silently, patted Yao Lao's arm gently, and then a firm look flashed across his face as he said:
"Teacher, I promise you that if I have the chance in the future, I will definitely find him to avenge you."

Although Yao Lao's strength had recovered to the peak of Dou Zun at this time, there was still a huge gap between him and the three-star Dou Sheng. Moreover, Yao Lao was already old, and it was very difficult for him to advance to the Dou Sheng.

Not to mention Yao Wangui, whose strength has surpassed that of a three-star Douluo. It can basically be said that there is no hope of revenge.

But Xiao Yan is different.

Over the past three years, Xiao Yan practiced three different fire techniques simultaneously: Bone Flame Technique, Meteoric Heart Technique, and Gold Flame Technique.

In addition, there is the absorption and refining of energy left over from the Three Thousand Flames, as well as Yao Lao's Bone Spirit Cold Fire, Skyfire Lord's Fallen Heart Flame, and Xiao Xun'er's Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame, three real strange fires for comparison.

This greatly increased Xiao Yan's comprehension speed and his strength improved by leaps and bounds, and he had now reached the Dou Zong level.

Xiao Yan was only in his twenties at this time.

He is so young, yet possesses the "Burning Art" and many different fire skills. He has unlimited potential.

There is a great possibility that he will reach the level of Fighting Saint in the future, and become stronger than Yao Wangui, so that he can avenge Yao Lao.

"Good! I, Yao Chen, really did not make the mistake of accepting you as my disciple."

Yao Lao was also relieved to see Xiao Yan's assurance.

In addition to Yao Wangui, the Yao clan also has a one-star Dou Sheng level and two half-saint level beings.

The rest are just Dou Zun level strongmen.

"There is no such thing as fairness in the world."

Wang Tianming shook his head and said, “Although I just announced that the champion of this Alchemist Competition can be called the best alchemist in the continent.

In fact, it is a bit exaggerated.

This shouldn’t be considered a truly top-level competition.

Because those alchemists who possessed strange fire did not participate.

After all, I already have a Strange Fire, so the Strange Fire rewarded in this competition is not very attractive to me. "

Of course, some alchemists who possess a strange fire may also want a second strange fire.

After all, I can't use it myself, so can I give it to my juniors or friends?

However, not a single alchemist who possessed Strange Fire participated in this competition. Apparently, they had reached an agreement privately not to engage in malicious competition and to give opportunities to those alchemists who did not have Strange Fire.

Wang Tianming knew a little about this matter, but he didn't care.

“That’s right, the top people in the alchemy world all have their own strange fire.

Among them is Yao Clan’s number one alchemist and clan leader—Yao Dan, whose strange fire is unknown.

The second alchemist of the Yao clan is Yao Wanhuo, who controls the Jiuyou Fengyan, which ranks tenth on the Strange Fire List.

The Soul Clan’s number one alchemist, Hun Xuzi, is said to have mastered the Void Devouring Flame, which ranks second on the Strange Fire List. It is unknown whether this is true or not.

The first person to practice pharmacism is Elder Shennong, who masters the fifth-ranked Strange Fire on the Strange Fire List, the Living Flame.

These are all terrifying beings who can refine ninth-grade elixirs."

Xuan Kongzi explained science to everyone.

"Haha, there are more than just these few people who can refine ninth-grade elixirs. Why did you miss the people from your Dan Tower?"

Upon hearing this, Yao Lao, who was standing by, immediately smiled and said, “Don’t tell me that your Danta ancestor can’t refine a ninth-grade elixir.”

"The ancestor's matter is rather special, so it is not counted."

Xuan Kongzi waved his hand.

Through the plot, Wang Tianming naturally knew why the Danta Patriarch was special.

He is a pill!
That’s right, it’s a ninth-grade elixir.

The person who refined the current Danta Patriarch was one of the founders of Danta a long time ago.

One year before his death, the founder of Danta used up all his energy to refine a pill.

When the elixir was completed, he exhausted all his energy and died sadly.

However, when he died, a trace of his consciousness was integrated into the ninth-grade elixir in a strange way, causing this elixir, which had reached the level of "ninth-grade mysterious elixir", to mutate.

Later, this elixir turned into a human form, but did not leave Danta. Instead, it stayed in Danta as the guardian of Danta.

That is the current ancestor of Danta.

In a sense, the current Danta ancestor can be said to be an alternative incarnation of the founder of Danta.

However, the priority of this clone is relatively complicated.

There are also different levels for ninth-grade elixirs.

The nine grades are divided into three levels: the ninth grade precious elixir, the ninth grade mysterious elixir and the ninth grade golden elixir.

Most of the strongest alchemists mentioned by Xuan Kongzi just now can refine ninth-grade precious elixirs. As for ninth-grade profound elixirs, it depends on chance and luck to refine them.

As for the final ninth-grade golden elixir, I am afraid that no one in the world can refine it.

As Wang Tianming and others were talking, time passed slowly.

In the blink of an eye, it was seven days later.

During these seven days, the refining in the sky seemed quite peaceful, but occasionally a low sound could be heard, which was the sound of some problems in the refining process, resulting in the explosion of the furnace.

After all, an eighth-grade elixir requires a lot of medicinal materials and is extremely complicated to process.

Sometimes negligence is inevitable, resulting in imperfect processing of medicinal materials and causing mistakes.

But it doesn’t matter. We just need to reprocess the medicinal materials.

The most crucial thing is that no mistakes must be made during the stage of fusion of medicinal materials and medicine liquid.

Once a mistake is made and the medicine is wasted, you will have to start all over again.

That's basically equivalent to being eliminated.

Because there is a time limit for refining medicine. If it is not completed within one month, it will be considered a failure.

Now, seven days later, most people have already processed all the main and auxiliary materials for alchemy.

One by one, they began to recover their spirits, restore their fighting spirit, adjust their own conditions, and prepare for the next most critical stage of medicine fusion.

The step of fusing the medicinal power of the liquid medicine requires almost all the control of the alchemist to a very demanding level. During the process, any slight change will lead to failure and all previous efforts will be wasted!

Therefore, this step is extremely important and everyone is extremely cautious.

The time required to integrate the medicinal power is the longest among the many steps in alchemy.

Fifteen full days later.

The stage of medicinal liquid fusion has just come to an end.

"boom!"

In the slightly blazing sky and earth, a low muffled thunder suddenly resounded in the sky, and immediately countless eyes hurriedly turned upward.

I saw a dark cloud suddenly appearing in the sky, and thunder quickly shuttled through the cloud like a silver snake.

After a while, the clouds gradually appeared layer by layer of colors, until the fifth color appeared, and then it slowly stopped.

"Look, it's five-colored pill thunder, an eighth-grade five-colored pill has appeared!"

Seeing the strange phenomenon in the sky, there was an uproar in the square.

Immediately, countless eyes were focused on the stone medicine refining platform under the sky.

There, a middle-aged man was looking at the thunderclouds in the sky with a gloomy face. He was the first person to bring out Dan Lei.

But he was not happy at all.

Because what he wanted to refine was an eighth-grade, six-colored Danlei Pill, but he only managed to refine a five-colored Danlei Pill.

Obviously a failure.

It is not difficult that even if he really refined the six-color Danlei elixir, it is basically impossible for him to win the championship among so many big guys.

But the purpose of his participation in this competition is to perform at his best.

Although when he first started participating in the competition, he had fantasized that he might be lucky enough to not meet any powerful alchemists...but when he actually arrived in Shengdan City and inquired about the information of other contestants, he no longer had such ridiculous thoughts.

The main focus is on a mentality of participation.

Competing on the same stage with these big guys is also a rare experience.

But even though he had good thoughts in his mind, his mentality was still affected.

"You need to practice more."

The middle-aged man was not satisfied with his performance and shook his head.

"Finally, Dan Lei has been attracted."

Wang Tianming smiled upon seeing this, flew up, and flew directly into the Danlei cloud.

Before Dan Leiyun approved it,

Wang Tianming took a deep breath, and a terrifying suction force burst out from his mouth, containing space means. He actually directly pulled and compressed the huge Danlei Cloud, making it smaller, and then swallowed it into his stomach.

"Five-color pill thunder, it's better than nothing."

Wang Tianming felt the power of Dan Leiyun exploding in his body and couldn't help but shook his head.

"What? What did I see? He swallowed the pill thunder directly?"

"As expected of the Thunder Saint, he actually faced Dan Lei like this. It's too scary!"

"This! A Dou Sheng strongman is so terrifying!"

When the audience around saw Wang Tianming's methods, they were all shocked and stunned.

"Thank you for your help, Thunder Saint."

The middle-aged man who refined the elixir thanked Wang Tianming respectfully.

"I should be the one thanking you, Dan Lei."

Wang Tianming said with a smile.

Boom!

at this time.

The second eighth-grade elixir was refined, attracting elixir thunder.

This time, the Danlei clouds emerged layer by layer, and only stopped slowly after the sixth type appeared.

Six Color Dan Lei!

"Yes, it is the six-colored pill thunder."

Wang Tianming was delighted when he saw this, he knew that the next Dan Lei would explode one after another.

Just like before, he swallowed the pill directly into his stomach.

Time passed slowly.

Dan Lei began to emerge one after another.

Six-color Dan Lei! Five-color Dan Lei! Six-color Dan Lei!

The first to appear were five-colored and six-colored Danlei.

Wang Tianming swallowed more than twenty flowers.

Obviously, those who have the confidence to compete for the strange fire are not those who have barely reached the level of an eighth-grade alchemist.

Those with low skills are too embarrassed to come up and embarrass themselves.

The lowest level ones are all at the level of eighth-grade five-colored pill thunder.

Although the quality of the five-colored pill thunder is a bit low for Wang Tianming, the quantity is sufficient.

"I haven't made a breakthrough yet. Fortunately, I organized this competition. Otherwise, it would be really difficult to break through the bottleneck."

Wang Tianming felt his body constantly absorbing and digesting the power of Dan Lei in his body, but he still hadn't broken through the 70% bottleneck of the Yang Shen Stage. He couldn't help but sigh.

But Wang Tianming was not in a hurry.

There are still twenty or thirty people at the scene who are still in the final stages of making pills.

It takes these people longer to refine the pills, so the level of pill thunder they attract will be higher.

Of course, judging the grade of the elixir by time is not absolute, because some people may make mistakes along the way and cause delays.

Except for those that waste time, for most of the time, the longer the time, the higher the level of the elixir being refined, and the higher the level of the elixir thunder caused.

Wang Tianming was not disappointed.

Soon, the seven-colored pill thunder was born.

"Haha, good time."

When Wang Tianming saw the seven-colored thunder, he burst into laughter.

Boom! Boom!
With good luck, several seven-colored pill thunders appeared and exploded simultaneously.

Only Wang Tianming had the means to compress the pill thunder and swallow it into his stomach, otherwise, he would not be able to deal with so many pill thunders striking at the same time.

In particular, the continuous striking of Dan Lei is a process, which may last for several minutes or even more than ten minutes.

Wang Tianming's method is to swallow up all the Danlei energy directly, swallowing as much as appears.

With Wang Tianming's strength as a high-level Dou Sheng, it is of course easy for him to swallow these pill thunders.

After all, the pill thunder caused by the eighth-grade elixir, even if it reaches nine colors, is only the power of the peak level of Dou Zun. Wang Tianming can easily suppress and digest it.

Used to temper one's Yang Shen.

"Breakthrough!"

Finally, after absorbing three more seven-colored pill thunderclouds, Wang Tianming finally broke through the 70% progress level. A warm power nourished and strengthened his soul.

At the moment of breakthrough, the progress immediately jumped to 80%!

This is because according to the progress, Wang Tianming can actually reach 100%, but it is just because the Yang God needs thunder tribulation to transform.

80% is certainly not the end.

After more than a dozen seven-colored thunderclouds, eight-colored thunderclouds finally began to appear.

"The eight-colored pill thunder is finally here!"

The audience around were all very excited.

Wang Tianming was excited. He had never been so wealthy before.

It feels so good to absorb the pill thunder at will!

After swallowing five or six eight-colored thunder clouds.

Wang Tianming broke through again and reached 90% of the Yang Shen stage!

"Will there be nine-colored pill thunder?"

Wang Tianming looked at the few people who were still refining.

These people include two from Danta, three from the Yao Clan, and a casual cultivator.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Accompanied by a huge roar.

Three more eight-colored pill thunders appeared.

Even these three eight-colored pill thunders contain a hint of the ninth color.

Unfortunately, the ninth color of the Danlei Cloud did not really take shape in the end, and did not reach the level of nine-color Danlei, and it was still only eight colors.

Seeing this, Wang Tianming was a little disappointed, but he didn't complain.

Swallow the pill thunder directly into the stomach.

"It's still a little short. It would be best if the last three people could produce the real Nine-Colored Pill Lightning for me, so that I can break through the 90% bottleneck in one fell swoop!"

Wang Tianming looked at the last three people, full of anticipation.

Two of them are from Danta.

An elder of the Waidan Tower named Hou Laoguai.

There is also an elder of the Inner Dan Tower, who is the old man whose strength has reached the level of a two-star Dou Sheng.

The other two giants of the Outer Dan Tower - Xuan Yi and Tian Lei Zi - have been considered eliminated, and they have only refined the Eight-Colored Dan Lei Pill.

The last one is from the Medicine Clan.

He is the three-star Dousheng expert named Yao Wangui!
The other powerful members of the Medicine Clan have been eliminated.

"boom!"

At this moment, a low loud noise suddenly came from between heaven and earth, and an extremely strong energy wave suddenly spread out. Then, above the sky, the clouds condensed like lightning.

"Old Monster Hou's elixir is about to be successfully refined!"

In the referee's seat, Xuan Kongzi looked at the condensed Danlei Cloud and exclaimed:

"This aura seems to be even more terrifying than the eight-colored pill thundercloud that just appeared. Could it be..."

"No way? Could it be the Nine-Colored Pill Thunder?"

The audience around felt this strong energy fluctuation and felt anticipation in their hearts.

Under the gazes of so many people, Hou Laoguai stood up in high spirits, and an ugly smile appeared on his dead-looking face.

Immediately, he looked at the blue flame standing still in the void, with joy and desire in his eyes.

He put his hands behind his back and looked at the thunderclouds in the sky. After tumbling several times, the thunderclouds finally showed nine colors as expected.

“I didn’t expect that Old Monster Hou actually refined an eighth-grade nine-color pill-thunder-level elixir!”

Yao Lao also looked at the sky with some surprise.

Speaking of which, this old monster Hou had once competed with him in the Danta Dan Conference, but Yao Lao was slightly better and suppressed Hou, winning the championship of that Dan Conference that year.

"It is indeed the Nine-Colored Pill Thunder!"

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but exclaimed.

“Haha, it looks like this time, I’m the one who’s going to win!”

Old Monster Hou looked at the thundercloud and finally laughed out loud.

This time, he can be said to have performed above his level.

Originally, his level was probably at the level of eight-colored pill thunder, and only with good luck could he reach the level of nine-colored pill thunder.

This time, it was a lucky time.

"Haha! Want to win the championship?"

Hearing his words, a sneer came out harshly: "Have you asked me?"

Boom!

At this moment, another nine-colored thunder cloud was born, and its aura was even more terrifying than the thunder cloud caused by Old Monster Hou.

Feeling this momentum, Hou Laoguai's face suddenly became gloomy, and he looked towards the source of the voice.

I saw that the person who had just spoken was an old man wearing the clothes of the Yao clan, and it was Yao Wangui!
"Don't be so arrogant. Elder Lin is still refining it! Elder Lin has spent more time than us, and he will definitely be able to refine a more powerful pill."

Old Monster Hou angrily shouted at Yao Wangui.

He was really a little angry.

In his opinion, he lost mainly because of his cultivation.

The last three people left, Elder Xiao Dantalin and Yao Wangui, all have the strength of a Fighting Saint.

I am the only one who has not reached the peak of Dou Zun, and I haven't even completed the progress of 'Nine Transformations Dou Zun Peak'.

Whether in terms of fighting spirit or soul strength, he is far behind Elder Lin and Yao Wangui.

This is also the important reason why he has never been able to stably refine elixirs of the 'Eighth Grade Nine-Colored Pill Thunder' level.

When it comes to medicine refining techniques, Hou Laoguai is not inferior in confidence, and his techniques are even stronger.

Unfortunately, the only difference is in cultivation.

"That's not necessarily true. The longer it takes to refine a pill, the more powerful it is. If I slowly delay the time and wait until the last minute of the stipulated one month to refine the pill, wouldn't that be the most powerful?"

Yao Wangui sneered.

However, despite saying this, he still looked at the last Elder Dantalin with some worry.

(End of this chapter)
