Three Pill Lightnings
As soon as the Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python appeared, it flicked its tail and darted in front of the Companion Amethyst Source that Xiao Ming had taken out earlier. It suddenly stood up, turned its head, and looked at Xiao Ming's handsome face. Its forked tongue flickered, and it hissed.
"You little glutton, didn't you just eat the Earth Fire Lotus Seed? Why do you still want to eat the Companion Amethyst Source?" Xiao Ming twitched the corner of his mouth. Why did it feel like the Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python's appetite had increased recently?
Seeing the pitiful look in the little snake's eyes again, Xiao Ming sighed and nodded.
"Okay, but don't eat too much, or you'll get sick from overeating."
Seeing Xiao Ming nod, the Sky-Swallowing Python's eyes lit up with joy. It stretched its head out and its tongue plunged directly into the bottle, quickly sucking it in.
When the Sky-Swallowing Python had consumed nearly a third of the amethyst source in the bottle, it finally stopped absorbing it. Slightly dazed, it pulled its head off the bottle opening, and a hint of intoxication flashed in its pale purple snake eyes.
Looking at the Sky-Swallowing Python shaking its head, Xiao Ming put away the Purple Crystal Source and stroked its slightly burning body with his palm.
I told you not to eat so much, but you wouldn't listen.
Faced with Xiao Ming's caress, the Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python chose to enjoy it for a while. After a moment, its tail wrapped around Xiao Ming's wrist, then slipped into his sleeve and gradually fell into a deep sleep.
Without the Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python's interference, Xiao Ming finally began formally refining medicine.
With a wave of his hand, the Myriad Beast Cauldron flashed out and then Hovering Mid-air.
At the same time, Pale White Flame appeared, which Xiao Ming casually tossed into the medicine cauldron. With a thought, medicinal herbs began to rise continuously from the ground, eventually hovering in mid-air.
After carefully examining the medicinal herbs once more, and finding no problems, Xiao Ming slowly closed his eyes. The prescription for the Emperor's Flowing Sap flowed through his mind like water, confirming that there were no issues with the various key steps he had set in the refining process.
A moment later, Xiao Ming opened his eyes, took a light breath, and flicked his finger, drawing a three-colored lotus with extremely vibrant colors to his front.
The colorful lotus flame has bloomed, about the size of a bowl, and emits a glow of blue, red, and yellow.
Most incredibly, a tiny, Linglong seven-colored rainbow appeared out of thin air just inches above the lotus, sparkling and dazzlingly beautiful.
"Seven-Glow Lotus..." The name of this lotus flower flashed through Xiao Ming's mind. It was one of the main ingredients for refining the Emperor's Flowing Sap Pill. It was extremely rare to find and had excellent healing effects. Xiao Ming found it in Han Feng's Na Ring.
He glanced at the strange lotus flower, then flicked his finger, sending it into the medicine cauldron. A wisp of Pale White Flame enveloped it.
"Laugh!"
As soon as the Seven-Glow Lotus was engulfed in flames, streams of seven-colored energy emanated from it, briefly absorbing the heat of the Heavenly Flames.
In response, Xiao Ming clenched his fist, and the temperature of the flames suddenly surged!
As the temperature of the flames rose dramatically, the seven-colored aura emanating from the Seven-Glow Lotus rapidly faded, eventually dissipating completely. Without the protection of the seven-colored aura, the Seven-Glow Lotus withered quickly, and after about ten minutes, it finally burst open, turning into a cloud of three-colored powder.
As soon as the powder appeared, Xiao Ming did not immediately withdraw the flame. Instead, he repeatedly burned the powder until it exhibited a crystalline luster. Then, with a thought, a ball of flame enveloped the three-colored powder and floated in a corner of the medicine cauldron.
After refining the Seven-Glow Lotus, Xiao Ming took a fist-sized Ganoderma lucidum. The appearance of the Ganoderma lucidum was no different from that of ordinary Ganoderma lucidum, but the color was different. It was golden yellow all over, like the color of the sun. The small plant looked very delicate, and wisps of scorching heat kept emanating from the Ganoderma lucidum.
"Golden Sun Ganoderma... has the effect of refining Dou Qi through bone tempering, and can also improve Dou Qi Cultivation. It does not conflict with the medicinal properties of Emperor's Flowing Sap. It mostly grows in the lava fields of the Earth's core. If it weren't for the Central Plains, it would be really hard to find."
Xiao Ming glanced at the Ganoderma lucidum, then flicked his finger, sending it into the medicine cauldron as well...
As Xiao Ming continued refining the pills, the medicinal herbs floating in mid-air were gradually added into the cauldron. Xiao Ming was extremely careful this time, as the amount of Emperor's Flowing Sap was limited, only enough to refine three portions. Moreover, he had devised a method to save time, so he naturally needed to be extra cautious.
While Xiao Ming was refining pills, some people came to his door, but they were all stopped by Xiao Yi Xian. After learning that Xiao Ming was refining pills, those people did not leave.
Although the Pill Tower's assessments are known for their rigor, they still wanted to see if Xiao Ming's alchemy skills were truly exceptional.
While Xiao Ming was in seclusion refining pills, time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, seven days had passed.
In the dimly lit space, a medicine cauldron floated in mid-air. Suddenly, it trembled, and a clear "humming" sound rippled out.
As the elixir energy surged forth, Xiao Ming slowly opened his slightly narrowed eyes, gazing at the scene before him with a look of satisfaction on his face.
After the medicine cauldron emitted a humming sound, an exceptionally rich medicinal aura suddenly erupted from the cauldron like a volcano. The source of the medicinal aura could be faintly seen, seemingly a perfectly round pill encased within Pale White Flame.
The surge of elixir energy grew increasingly rapid, eventually reaching almost directly into the sky. Attracted by this dense elixir energy, dark clouds quickly gathered in the sky.
Outside the Pill Tower, on the bustling marble plaza, countless Alchemist looked up.
"Boom!"
In the slightly scorching heat of the world, a series of deep, muffled thunderclaps suddenly resounded across the sky.
Countless gazes hurriedly shifted upwards, only to see that a dark cloud had appeared in the sky at some unknown time. However, now, a deep rumble of thunder was emanating from within this cloud, clearly indicating that the Pill Lightning had taken shape.
"Pill Lightning? A Grade Seven Medicinal Pill has been produced!"
Within Holy Pill City, there are many people with exceptionally keen eyesight who can recognize the grade of this Pill Lightning with just a glance.
"This level of Pill Lightning should be from Grade Seven Mid-level Medicinal Pill, but it's a bit strange. It's stronger than Grade Seven Mid-level pill, as if it's the Pill Lightning of several pills stacked together..."
As soon as the words fell, the thunderclouds in the sky suddenly contracted, and a bolt of Thunder, half a meter wide, like a giant python, burst out from the clouds, tearing through space and hurtling towards the ground with a terrifying hissing sound.
"Tsk tsk, this attack is probably as powerful as a full-force strike from a Six-Star Dou Ancestor. I wonder if the opponent can withstand it."
"I think it should be fine. How could anyone else refine pills without some preparation...?"
Most people felt that Pill Lightning was not a big problem.
Just as they expected, a bronze-colored figure flew into the air and collided with Pill Lightning.
With a deafening roar of Thunder, the Pill Lightning vanished.
"Boom!"
Just when everyone thought the matter was over, the dark clouds in the sky did not dissipate, and a moment later, another bolt of Thunder struck down.
"What's going on? Why are there two bolts of Pill Lightning of the same level descending?"
"I don't know, this is the first time I've encountered something so strange..."
Some Alchemist weren't very high-level looked completely bewildered.
Some veteran Alchemist couldn't help but widen their eyes in disbelief.
"This is... One Cauldron Two Pills?!"
"Boom!" Another clap of thunder sounded.
"One Cauldron Three Pills? Who's the madman?! He actually managed to make three Grade Seven Mid-level pills in One Cauldron Three Pills?! And he actually succeeded?!"
