"Laugh!"
Inside the cauldron, when the flames compressed the numerous medicinal herbs into one place, the instantaneous collision caused the energy within to erupt uncontrollably. Waves of energy continuously burst forth, and with a low, muffled sound, the pure medicinal liquid was scattered in all directions. If it weren't for the protection of the Heavenly Flames, this single blow would have destroyed all the medicinal herbs.
Sensing the sudden change within the medicine cauldron, Xiao Yan frowned deeply, but dared not slacken his vigilance in the slightest. The vast, ocean-like Spiritual Strength between his brows poured out without reservation, seemingly transforming into two giant hands that grasped all the essence of the medicinal herbs within the cauldron. Enveloped by the Heavenly Flames, they compressed it again with an extremely forceful manner!
This opportunity comes only once, and we must not miss any chance. If we want to refine the Ancestor Transformation Pill, this step is the only way!
His gaze was fixed on the medicine cauldron before him, flames leaping and the intense light reflecting off Xiao Yan's solemn face. He held his breath, and the air in the secret room seemed to freeze at this moment, making the atmosphere exceptionally serious.
Inside the medicine cauldron, no matter how violently the energy between the medicinal herbs surged, Xiao Yan rigidly controlled his Spiritual Strength, using the Heavenly Flames to withstand all the explosions. The situation inside the medicine cauldron was constantly changing, but Xiao Yan was able to accurately detect that the energy fluctuations between the medicinal herbs were weakening at an extremely slow rate. Once all the energy fluctuations completely dissipated, the medicinal herbs would fuse together, and the pill would be formed!
Time slipped away like sand through fingers as the Heavenly Flames rose. Xiao Yan sat cross-legged before the medicine cauldron, his body stiff as a sculpture, looking almost like a corpse. If it weren't for the faint breath emanating from his nose and the beads of sweat constantly appearing on his forehead, one might truly mistake him for a corpse.
In the blink of an eye, countless hours and days had passed. Xiao Yan only knew that he had given his all, and the medicinal herbs inside the cauldron were gradually fusing together. The process was slowly progressing in a positive direction. His eyes, which were fixed on the cauldron, were filled with a gloomy expression. His eyes gradually became bloodshot and even his eyeballs appeared unusually prominent.
Overwhelmed by his surroundings, Xiao Yan forgot everything else. His entire consciousness was completely immersed in the enormous medicine cauldron. The only thing that changed in the entire secret chamber was the flickering flames inside the cauldron, which illuminated Xiao Yan's body and cast a distorted shadow on the ground and walls behind him.
The fusion of the medicinal herbs proceeded slowly amidst Xiao Yan's trepidation. Fortunately, no further mistakes occurred during the entire fusion process. The intense tension ensured that each step was carried out methodically until finally, when the last drop of liquid merged with the herbs, a mottled mass the size of a fist appeared inside the cauldron.
Looking at the medicinal liquid that had ultimately turned into a puddle, Xiao Yan did not relax. The pill was not yet complete, and the outcome was still uncertain. If he wanted to completely relax, he would only be able to do so when the pill was finally successfully refined.
Xiao Yan dared not slacken his efforts in the slightest, his mind remaining tense. He controlled the flames with his Spiritual Strength, maintaining them at a constant temperature, slowly releasing heat so that the various medicinal herbs within the liquid could gradually blend together.
As the various medicinal liquids within the group gradually merged and condensed, the original fist-sized volume of the medicinal ball gradually solidified until, at a certain point, the size of the group had been reduced by half. On its surface, the originally viscous liquid began to dry and harden, and a pill that looked somewhat mottled and shapeless was gradually condensing.
Looking at the nascent pill that had finally fused successfully in the cauldron, Xiao Yan finally put down the biggest weight on his heart. He suppressed his excitement and let out a long sigh. His throat was so dry that he could even smell a slightly metallic taste. However, at this moment, with the most difficult steps in refining the pill successfully completed, Xiao Yan had no time to worry about them. He maintained his original control and prepared to move on to the next stage, which was also the most crucial stage for the quality of the pill.
Pill Nurturing!
Once the Pill Nurturing is complete, the Ancestor Transformation Pill is considered truly refined!
While Xiao Yan was in seclusion refining pills, two months had already passed in the outside world.
As the clan gathering approached, the atmosphere within the Xiao Clan underwent a noticeable change. The younger generation of the Xiao Clan, who were usually lazy and wandering around, were now hiding in their rooms, desperately cultivating. Although this behavior had a bit of a last-minute cramming feel to it, it must be said that under the continuous and frantic cultivation, some of the more talented or those who had been in the breakthrough stage for a long time actually broke through their cultivation levels, which brought them great joy.
Of course, compared to others, these are still a minority. Some young people who are used to being wild outside in the name of the Xiao Clan can not necessarily hold their heads high in this family. The strength of the Origin King Origin Emperor is not uncommon among these young people, but only by breaking through many obstacles and becoming the best among them can they be treated differently by the elders.
On a cliff in the back mountain of the Xiao Clan.
Xiao Xuan, dressed in white, sat cross-legged with his eyes closed and his hands forming cultivation hand seals. Around him, the Origin Qi stirred and the wind and clouds gathered.
Above his head, a huge, invisible whirlwind, mixed with sharp and domineering sword energy, was gathering all the energy in this world. At the same time, Xiao Xuan's internal energy was rapidly circulating, and invisibly, there seemed to be a series of intense collision sounds within his body.
"Buzzing..."
As the cultivation technique rapidly circulated, streams of powerful Origin Qi continuously surged into his body, attempting to break through the barrier between the Origin Emperor and the Yuan Zong.
During the days that Xiao Yan was in seclusion refining pills, Xiao Xuan did not simply wait for the results. Instead, he relied on his own strength to repeatedly attempt to break through the invisible barrier within his body. Although it seemed impossible, Xiao Xuan understood that in these countless attempts, he only needed to move forward a small distance, even if it was just a small crack, and he was confident that he could break through this barrier and advance to the Yuan Zong.
And that's exactly what he's doing right now.
As the sword energy above Xiao Xuan's head grew stronger, an invisible sword formed vertically downwards in the center of the whirlwind. The moment the sword tip condensed, it carried the force to shatter the sky and pierced straight through his soul, crashing into the barrier of his cultivation!
"Snap!"
Without any unnecessary frills, as the sword fell, a deafening explosion seemed to suddenly resound deep within Xiao Xuan's mind. In an instant, the enormous whirlwind swirling above his head suddenly swelled, unleashing a tremendous suction force. Energy from heaven and earth seemed to have found an entrance, pouring in and being frantically absorbed into Xiao Xuan's body.
After months of countless attempts, today we have finally achieved our goal!
As these energies of heaven and earth continued to pour in, an astonishing aura far surpassing that of Peak Origin Emperor rapidly rose within Xiao Xuan's body, reaching the Yuan Zong!
