Battle Through the Heavens: Even without the Burning Flame Technique, I, Xiao Yan, still became an e

How come there are two?

Xiao Yan was both surprised and delighted. Generally speaking, an alchemist can only refine one pill from a batch of pills under normal circumstances.

Only in very rare cases, when the essence of each portion of the medicinal liquid is allocated to the extreme, can multiple pills be refined.

However, such a feat is generally only achievable by alchemists whose skill level far surpasses that of those who refine pills and medicines.

Both Frank and Otto are only fourth-grade alchemists. Even if they are experienced and can stably produce fourth-grade pills, it would be difficult for them to refine multiple pills.

"Could it be...?"

Xiao Yan opened his eyes wide and began to carefully examine the two pills. He discovered that the colors of the pill patterns on them were completely different, which clearly indicated that they were made by two completely different flames.

The so-called "cinnabar pattern" is a sign of high-quality elixir. Basically, only elixirs with a purity of 90% or higher are likely to have cinnabar patterns.

The fact that both pills developed pill patterns indicates that the refiners of both pills were highly skilled.

Considering the entire Blackrock City's capabilities in refining these pills, one of them should have been made by Frank, and the other by Otto.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but laugh: "These two seniors have really been fighting their whole lives, neither of them willing to admit defeat."

Clearly, the two pills he obtained were also the result of their internal strife.

They did this simply to see who had the better alchemy skills, while Xiao Yan gained a huge advantage.

After all, a single Purple Heart Breakthrough Pill is worth at least seven or eight million gold coins on the market, and two of them could even buy a low-level Earth-rank cultivation technique or fighting skill.

The reason why the Purple Heart Breakthrough Pill is so expensive is not only because it can increase the fighting spirit of a one-star Great Dou Master without side effects, but also because it can be taken twice!

If you have the money, it's not impossible to go from a seven-star Grand Dou Master to a nine-star Grand Dou Master in one go by taking drugs.

Of course, not only would taking drugs all the way here be extremely costly, but one's fighting spirit would also become very unstable. It would probably take at least a long period of continuous fighting to stabilize the vortex of fighting spirit.

But Xiao Yan didn't have this concern. He could simply use a different kind of fire to refine and concentrate his weak Dou Qi, so this side effect was practically negligible for him.

Looking at the two pills in the box, Xiao Yan suddenly had a bold idea.

If you take them one by one, you need a one-month recovery period before you can continue taking them, otherwise the medicine may be too strong for your body to handle.

If you take two pills at the same time, you can instantly release twice the medicinal effect.

Doing this might be risky, but Xiao Yan wasn't afraid. He had a different kind of fire within him, and if he couldn't absorb the excess medicinal properties, he could feed them all to the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan left a wisp of strange fire fighting spirit on his door as a precaution.

I can detect anyone approaching immediately.

Xiao Yan then sat cross-legged and entered a meditative state. He then put two pills into his mouth at the same time, chewed them up, and swallowed them.

After swallowing two Purple Heart Breakthrough Pills, Xiao Yan immediately began to circulate his Dou Qi to cultivate.

A few seconds later, the effects of the medicine took hold in Xiao Yan's body, and a strong warmth instantly spread throughout his entire body.

However, not long after, the warmth instantly turned into a burning pain, as if the purple flames were burning his body.

The acupoints all over Xiao Yan's body were being stimulated by the burning pain, generating a large amount of Dou Qi. The Dou Qi vortex also accelerated its rotation because of this burning pain, absorbing all the medicinal properties and Dou Qi into it!

However, after these medicinal properties entered his Qi vortex, they began to burn it, and the burning pain continued to intensify.

"This is bad! The medicinal properties of those two pills are far too strong. I must quickly use my strange fire to devour these purple flames!"

However, after a short while, Xiao Yan stopped again, because he clearly felt that after the medicinal properties burned, they turned into streams of Dou Qi and filled his Dou Qi vortex, becoming part of his Dou Qi.

However, as the properties of the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill flowed in, his Qi vortex became even hotter!

If the Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire absorbs these purple flames, the current state of filling with battle qi will be interrupted, but the subsequent medicinal properties will also be absorbed by the strange fire.

Hang in there!

Xiao Yan gritted his teeth. Now, even his skin was covered in purple beads of sweat, which would evaporate in an instant.

In an instant, the entire room was filled with purple mist, and Xiao Yan appeared to be almost cooked.

However, since he had previously absorbed the Spirit Fire of Ten Thousand Beasts, the burning sensation was still bearable, and the transformation of the medicinal properties continued.

As more and more Dou Qi was added, Xiao Yan's Dou Qi vortex was gradually expanded, and his Dou Qi capacity was increasing rapidly.

The threshold of a nine-star Grand Dou Master was easily broken through, but the effects of the medicine were far from over!

Xiao Yan's Dou Qi vortex has now turned completely purple, and the Dou Qi inside has become extremely hot due to the medicinal properties.

At this moment, even breathing caused him waves of burning pain, as if his lungs were being burned through.

Even though Xiao Yan's body subconsciously wanted to release divine runes to protect himself, he suppressed it with his willpower.

At this moment, using the divine runes to eliminate the burning sensation would also erase the medicinal effects. He had to persevere until the purple flames truly began to burn through his body.

Several more hours passed, and Xiao Yan's breath was turning into purple steam, his consciousness gradually fading.

The only thing I still remember is that I must restrain my body's instincts until I fully absorb the medicinal properties of the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill.

Sometime after who knows how much time has passed, Xiao Yan felt the burning pain in his body begin to lessen, and it seemed that he had finally fully absorbed the medicinal properties of the two Purple Heart Breakthrough Pills.

His consciousness was gradually recovering, but Xiao Yan suddenly realized that even if he fully absorbed the medicinal power of the two Purple Heart Breakthrough Pills, it would not be enough to support him to become a Dou Ling. Even without any waste or loss, he could only reach the peak of the nine stars at most.

But if we lose this opportunity and this state of mind, and fail to make a breakthrough, it will take at least another year or two.

During that period, taking the Purple Heart Breakthrough Pill was completely useless.

"That's not enough, I can take even more!"

The hourglass divine mark on Xiao Yan's head was activated at this moment. After a month of dormancy, the hourglass divine mark had long since recovered, but not long after, Xiao Yan activated it again.

His physical condition began to regress, but his strength remained at the peak of the nine-star level.

Xiao Yan then realized that the so-called retrospection was only a retrospection of one's various states, not a retrospection of one's origin, and was subject to various limitations.

However, this benefit allows Xiao Yan to continue to benefit from the effects of two Purple Heart Breakthrough Pills even when he is at the peak of the Nine Stars level!

This time, however, Xiao Yan seemed to have gotten used to the burning pain that spread throughout his body from the inside out.

And that final barrier was completely shattered by the medicinal properties of the remaining two pills!

The moment he broke through to the Douling level, the burning pain that had been so intense it was almost unbearable began to dissipate in an instant.

The advancement in one's realm brings about a complete refresh of one's physical condition.

When a massive amount of Dou Qi filled the Dou Qi vortex, which had expanded more than ten times, Xiao Yan realized that he had successfully advanced to the Dou Ling level!
