Pill Formation! Five-Colored Pill Lightning, Alchemist Exchange Conference

Inside the Medicine Cauldron, more than a dozen clumps of medicinal liquid and powder were enveloped in flames.

The final step in alchemy is the formation of the elixir, but its difficulty is no less than that of refining Medicinal Herbs into liquid or powder.

Each drop of liquid medicine has a distinct energy level, and the energy must be controlled with absolute precision, leaving no room for error.

Xiao Yan unleashed the flames of the first ball of medicinal liquid. This energy was refined from the Crimson Orb of the Dou Venerate Fire Lizard, and it was also the base for the Tier 8 Medicinal Pill he was refining this time.

After stabilizing the energy, Xiao Yan released the flames that were enveloping the second ball of medicinal liquid.

With the injection of new energy, the previously stabilized energy quickly reacted violently.

Xiao Yan and Yao Lao simultaneously infused their Soul Power and flames, doing their utmost to stabilize the two energies and allow them to slowly merge.

This process took a full half day. It wasn't until Xiao Yan and Yao Lao were both sweating and showing signs of exhaustion that the two energies finally merged.

This process needs to be repeated more than ten times.

Xiao Yan began to unwrap the flames one by one, allowing the medicinal liquid and powder to merge into the initial energy cluster, while consciously infusing the spirituality of his Soul Power into the pills.

Tier 8 Medicinal Pill can attract several colors of Pill Lightning, which shows that spirituality is highly valued.

Even the Yin-Yang Profound Dragon Pill, which was forcibly piled up to Two-Colored Pill Lightning, only broke through the shackles and reached the Eighth Tier by relying on the resonance between the Myriad Beast Cauldron and the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame to absorb a trace of spirituality.

To ensure the pills before him reached the highest quality, Xiao Yan had no choice but to continuously infuse them with spiritual energy.

This would inevitably distract him, preventing him from properly integrating the elixir.

Fortunately, with the help of the Yao Lao Yao Lao, who was able to share a large part of the pressure, nothing went wrong.

Time passed little by little, one day, two days, three days, four days... a week... half a month.

The refining of Tier 8 Medicinal Pill is an unimaginable ordeal.

After a full two weeks, there were still two clumps of medicinal liquid left that had not been incorporated into the pill.

This was only possible because of Yao Lao's assistance; otherwise, relying solely on himself, it would have taken Xiao Yan at least a month.

It's even possible that because spiritual energy needs to be constantly infused during the process, attention may be diverted, leading to mistakes, and the entire elixir could need to be refined.

Xiao Yan realized that he had no weaknesses in other areas, but his alchemy skills, which required time to accumulate, were holding him back.

It's not that he didn't work hard, but rather that there's no shortcut to mastering alchemy.

It has only been about three years since I started learning alchemy from Yao Lao.

Relying on his Fire Spirit Body -Flame Control Technique, he rapidly improved his alchemy skills, raising them to between the Seventh Tier and Eighth Tier, which is already considered a prodigy.

With plenty of time ahead, Xiao Yan knew he should improve his alchemy skills.

However, the most urgent task is to completely complete the formation of the elixir in front of us.

Xiao Yan unwrapped the last flame, and two streams of medicinal liquid simultaneously poured into a pitted pill at the center of the Myriad Beast Cauldron.

He and the Yao Lao each took charge of a portion of the medicinal liquid, ensuring it was fully integrated with the pills.

Gradually, the pits and bumps on the surface of the pill were filled in, and it gradually became round. A strange medicinal fragrance spread from inside the Myriad Beast Cauldron.

At that moment, Xiao Yan held his breath and focused his mind, quickly forming hand seals. His powerful Soul Power acted on the pill, completely stabilizing all its energy.

At the very moment the pill was formed, a beam of light shot out from the Myriad Beast Cauldron, soaring straight into the sky.

In the next instant, the Cloud Mist in the sky quickly took shape and condensed together. Throughout Yan City and the entire Black-Corner Region, anyone looking up could see the thunderclouds containing powerful energy above Yan City.

Unlike ordinary thunderclouds, this thundercloud was actually divided into four colors: silver, cyan, red, and gold. Between these four distinct colors, there was also a very faint purple that was slowly forming.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky above Yan City, as if thunder dragons were rolling through the clouds.

Yan City.

Located in the center of Yan City, within the territory of the Tian Shu Alliance, stands a building exuding a strong medicinal fragrance, named the Pill Hall, a subordinate force of the Tian Shu Alliance responsible for refining medicine.

Inside the main hall of the Pill Hall, Gu He, who served as an elder of the Tian Shu Alliance and concurrently as the hall master of the Pill Hall, sat at the head of the table.

Seated at the head of the left and right sides were Elder Huo from the Alchemy Department of the Jia Nan Academy and Elder Qi from the Black Emperor Sect, respectively.

"Elder Qi, congratulations on breaking through to the Sixth-Rank Alchemist." Gu He, sitting in the main seat, maintained a faint smile and offered his congratulations with clasped hands.

Elder Huo nodded and said, "Elder Qi, we should exchange alchemy techniques more often in the future."

Elder Qi smiled broadly and said modestly, "Haha, I have to thank Palace Master Gu and Elder Huo for this. Without your generous teachings, it would have taken me at least another year to break through to the Sixth-Rank Alchemist."

Gu He gave a soft hum, still smiling, "Since Alliance Leader Yan Xiao is here to exchange ideas amicably, it's only right that we help each other. I'm so dizzy from refining medicine every day, Elder Qi, I'll have to help me out from now on."

Elder Qi lit up with joy. "Haha, is this the truth, Palace Master Gu? Alchemist lack most is a sufficient number of Medicinal Herbs to refine. As long as there are Medicinal Herbs to refine every day, wouldn't the alchemy skills improve by leaps and bounds? Palace Master Gu, are you really going to let me share the burden?"

Gu He looked puzzled. "Elder Qi, you don't know much about the Tian Shu Alliance now, but you will in the future. You'll see just how enormous the Tian Shu Alliance's demand for Medicinal Herbs is."

Even according to Yan Xiao Alliance Leader Yan Xiao's idea, if the Tian Shu Alliance expands to the entire Northwest Continent, the burden on you and me will be...

Seemingly realizing he shouldn't reveal too much information, Gu He smiled and kept quiet.

Elder Huo and Elder Qi remained expressionless and tacitly avoided discussing that topic further, instead turning their conversation to matters of alchemy.

In fact, such exchanges have occurred many times since Elder Qi joined the Tian Shu Alliance.

Gu He is the Lord of the Pill Hall and an Elder of the Alliance.

Elder Qi is an alchemy elder affiliated with the Black Emperor Sect and also a member of the Tian Shu Alliance.

Elder Huo is an elder of the Alchemy Department of the Jia Nan Academy, while Xiao Yan is a guest elder of the Jia Nan Academy. They have a close relationship and are considered to be half of the Tian Shu Alliance.

Therefore, the three of them gradually and spontaneously formed an exchange group, which can be called the Tian Shu Alliance Alchemist Exchange.

The three had no idea that their casually organized exchange meeting would, as the Tian Shu Alliance continued to develop, become a formal conference influencing the entire continent.

Boom--!

A series of thunderclaps reached my ears.

The three of them, including Gu He, stood up at the same time.

"It's Pill Lightning! It seems the Alliance Leader has finished refining the pills!" Gu He's face lit up with joy. "Come with me to see what the quality of the pills the Alliance Leader refined this time is. Perhaps they've reached the High Seventh Grade rank."

"High Seventh Grade?" Elder Huo and Elder Qi had different expressions.

One of them had witnessed Xiao Yan refining a two-colored Tier 8 Medicinal Pill at the Jia Nan Academy, while the other knew that Xiao Yan was a ' Dou Venerate ' powerhouse who could summon spatial rifts at will.

In their minds, it was normal for Xiao Yan to refine Tier 8 Medicinal Pill.

On the contrary, Gu He had never seen Xiao Yan refine Tier 8 Medicinal Pill, nor had he ever seen Xiao Yan display his Dou Venerate strength, and still believed that Xiao Yan was only Seventh-Rank Alchemist.

With different perceptions of Xiao Yan, the three of them left the main hall together and came to the open space outside. But when they looked up, they were all stunned.

"Five colors... Why is this Pill Lightning five colors?"
