As the energy of heaven and earth was frantically drawn in, Xiao Heng looked at the enormous energy vortex above the fiery cauldron and frowned.
At his current strength, drawing in the energy of heaven and earth within a radius of ten thousand miles was already his limit. Of course, the energy within ten thousand miles should have been enough for a Ninth-grade Profound Pill to emerge.
But the others would not give him the chance to steadily draw in that energy. So, he had to move even faster and seize as much energy as possible before the others began drawing it in as well.
Fortunately, the Medicine Realm was extremely abundant in the energy of heaven and earth. If this had been the Star Realm, he would likely have had to drain the entire Star Realm dry to refine a Ninth-grade Profound Pill. And with the Star Realm's recovery rate, it would take at least a year to return to its state before the energy had been drained.
But they were in the Medicine Realm now. The abundant energy of heaven and earth could also increase the pill's success rate, and he would not have to bear any responsibility for the consequences. He did not want all his efforts to come to nothing.
Therefore, he had to hurry and draw in as much energy of heaven and earth as possible. If it truly proved insufficient later, he could only think of another way. In any case, he had made his position clear: he was determined to obtain this Ninth-grade Profound Pill today.
But the current rate of energy absorption still isn't enough! Xiao Heng muttered inwardly, glancing at the other four. They were almost ready as well.
So I have to be faster... Five Elements Formation, Devouring Power, activate...!
