Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 241 Ninth Grade Mysterious Pill
The turn of events was particularly dramatic. Xiao Yi suddenly rushed into Hunxuzi's fire cauldron and took away the unfinished elixir prototype. This scene not only made Hunxuzi furious, but also Xiao Yan himself was stunned. This matter had nothing to do with him. It was all Xiao Yi's own idea.

In the square, Yao Dan and many elders of the Yao Clan were looking at this scene in astonishment. After a moment, their faces twitched violently, with a funny look as if they wanted to laugh but were holding it back. No one had expected that Xiao Yan's strange fire spirit was of such a top-grade quality. That Hunxuzi only robbed them of some energy, but it was even more ruthless. It actually rushed directly into the other person's fire cauldron and took away the young Dan.

"Deserved it."

The elders of the Medicine Clan were already somewhat annoyed by Hunxuzi's previous behavior, and they all laughed in low voices with a gloating look on their faces.

The person who was holding the medicine pill in the first place also shook his head in a helpless manner. This good alchemy competition ended up turning into a strange situation of everyone fighting for it. It was really helpless to watch.

"This brat really doesn't follow the usual path." Yao Lao also scolded with a smile, but he didn't know that this matter really had nothing to do with Xiao Yan.

In the sky, under the gazes of many people, Xiao Yi appeared in front of Xiao Yan in a flash, with a chubby little face grinning. In his hands, he held a ball of light that was a bit bigger than his body. Looking through the ball of light, he could faintly see a light and shadow that looked like a fetus, which was the prototype of the elixir refined by Hunxuzi.

"Xiao Yan, I will tear you into pieces today!"

Not far away, there were loud sounds of wind and thunder. Hunxuzi's face was full of coldness. His previous demeanor was completely destroyed by Xiaoyi's behavior. This kind of thing was almost the first time he had encountered it in his life. He had worked so hard to refine the embryonic pill for such a long time, but before he could even see its appearance, it was taken away by Xiaoyi. The anger in his heart was simply indescribable.

As Hunxuzi's angry roar sounded, overwhelming black flames suddenly spurted out from his fire cauldron and immediately transformed into a black fire dragon, which rushed towards Xiao Yan madly, its huge mouth filled with endless devouring power.

"Hunxuzi, since you like energy so much, I will give it to you!"

As the black flame fire dragon just flew out, a green sea of ​​fire suddenly swept in from below. In the sea of ​​fire, countless towering trees grew out almost instantly, and then coiled around the black smoke fire dragon like vines.

"Old Shennong, do you dare to go against me?!"

Although the sudden attack did not cause any damage to the Black Flame Fire Dragon, it did restrain the Black Flame Fire Dragon. Seeing this, Hunxuzi's face suddenly turned cold, and he looked at the old man Shennong in the distance and said sternly.

"I'm old, but I've never been afraid of anyone. As for a hypocritical traitor like you, if I have the ability, I would wipe you out from this world to avoid bringing shame to the alchemist." Facing the stern shout of Hunxuzi, old man Shennong sneered, and his words were quite sharp.

"Just you? You old man who is tired of living, I haven't even thought about taking your Flame of Life, but you dare to provoke me!" Hunxuzi's eyes were cold and a sinister smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. He clenched his big hands, and the black flame dragon roared to the sky, opened its huge mouth towards the green sea of ​​fire below, and the devouring power surged out, and it actually swallowed the green sea of ​​fire directly into its body.

"Woo!"

Just when Hunxuzi was about to devour the sea of ​​fire, a light black tornado suddenly slammed into his body, and flames shot out, actually knocking the black flame dragon away.

"Wanhuo, your Medicine Clan wants to be enemies with my Soul Clan!" After encountering obstacles again, Hunxuzi's expression became extremely terrifying. He shot a murderous gaze at Elder Wanhuo in the distance and said grimly.

"In a contest, there is no racial distinction. Does that mean you are allowed to attack me before, but I am not allowed to attack you? This is ridiculous!" Elder Wanhuo waved his sleeves and said sarcastically.

"Okay, okay!" The corners of Hunxuzi's eyes twitched, but he laughed in anger. His palms kept shaking because of anger. In the depths of his eyes, strange black flames were slithering like poisonous snakes. Just when these flames were about to burst out of his eyes, Hunxuzi seemed to have thought of something. He hesitated for a moment, but retracted his flames and sneered, "You two want to stop me?"

As soon as the words fell, the black flame dragon suddenly shot out, and actually entangled the tornado transformed by the Nine Nether Wind Flame. The two behemoths suddenly rolled wildly in the sky, and scorching fire rain continued to fall from the sky. Fortunately, the elders of the Medicine Clan intervened and prevented the fire rain from destroying the Medicine Mountain.

In the distance, Xiao Yan looked at the three strange fires that were quickly fighting each other, and couldn't help but be surprised that the old man Shennong and the elder Wanhuo would actually help him. It seemed that Hunxuzi was indeed very difficult to please.

"Time is running out. We must first extract the energy from this young pill."

Xiao Yan's mind turned and he returned to the embryonic pill in front of him. The energy required to refine the ninth-grade profound pill was too astonishing. However, if he added the embryonic pill of Hunxuzi, the success rate could be increased a little.

For ordinary alchemists, it is simply not advisable to seize the energy of other people's embryo pills, because the two pills are different, and the medicinal properties in them are also different. If they are mixed together indiscriminately, it will cause the alchemy to fail. However, Xiao Yan does not have such concerns. The purifying power of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire, no matter what it is, as long as it enters Xiao Yi's body, it will be transformed into the purest energy, including those various medicinal properties.

"Axing, help me calculate how to extract energy the fastest."

[It is recommended to have Xiao Yi absorb the energy of the elixir, and then conduct it with fire attribute]

"Xiao Yi!"

As soon as Xiao Yan had a thought, Xiao Yi, who was connected to his mind, knew it. He opened his mouth and actually swallowed the embryo pill directly into his body. Immediately, vast energy surged in his body madly, and his body also expanded rapidly, turning into a giant baby of a hundred feet in length, floating in the sky.

"Chichi!"

As Xiao Yi's body expanded, the light ball in his body became brighter and brighter. Finally, it turned into a huge beam of light and shot into the fire cauldron. The terrifying energy contained in the beam of light was so vast that it was moving. "Asshole!"

When the embryonic pill was refined, Hunxuzi, who had some connection with it, felt it immediately. His eyes turned bloodshot, and with a roar, he rushed directly into the black flame dragon. As his body entered, the power of the fire dragon suddenly increased. With a flick of the dragon's tail, the green sea of ​​fire and the black flame tornado exploded.

Looking at Hunxuzi who was coming with murderous intent, Xiao Yan frowned slightly, snapped his fingers, and a black light flashed beside him. Ah Xing stomped his foot hard on the void, and like a cannonball, he collided head-on with the black flame dragon. All of a sudden, an extremely fierce battle broke out.

When Xiao Yan summoned Ah Xing to delay Hunxuzi, the ball of light in Xiao Yi's body gradually dimmed and finally turned invisible. The energy in it was completely purified and then thrown into Xiao Yan's fire cauldron.

“It’s still not enough.”

After swallowing Hunxuzi's embryonic pill, even though the energy in the fire cauldron had become as viscous as liquid, there was still no sign of condensation. Seeing this, Xiao Yan frowned. The energy of heaven and earth required for the ninth-grade Xuandan was too terrifying.
"Xiao Yan, the medicinal properties of my embryonic pill have been disrupted by Hunxuzi. Today, I will give you a chance. However, whether you can refine the ninth-grade Xuandan that I have been seeking all my life depends on your chance!" When Xiao Yan was worried about energy again, the old man Shennong in the distance saw his current situation. He waved his hand and a ball of light flew out from the medicine cauldron and finally shot towards Xiao Yi.

"Thank you, Senior Shennong."

Seeing this, Xiao Yan was overjoyed and clasped his fists towards Old Man Shennong.

“Alas, I haven’t seen a ninth-grade Mysterious Pill come into the world for hundreds of years. This time, I’ll just consider it as an eye-opener.” Elder Wanhuo, who was standing by, hesitated for a moment when he saw Elder Shennong’s actions, and finally sighed softly. Then, in the astonished eyes of the many Medicine Clan elders, he took out his own embryonic pill from the medicine cauldron and threw it to Xiao Yan.

"Thank you!"

Xiao Yan took one more look at Elder Wanhuo, and for the first time, he felt a little favorable impression towards this person from the Medicine Clan. He clasped his fists together, and without further delay, injected two embryonic pills into Xiao Yi's body. Immediately, they turned into two vast beams of light and shot into the medicine cauldron.

As such an indescribable amount of energy poured in, the liquid energy surging in the fire cauldron actually quickly melted away at this moment, and in the center of the liquid energy that filled the cauldron, a tiny spot of light slowly emerged.
"Boom!"

At the moment when the tiny light appeared, the clear sky was instantly covered with dark clouds, and the whole land was covered with darkness. The black thunder, with destructive power, shuttled quickly through the clouds. The rumbling low thunder made many people look horrified. This kind of terrifying pill thunder was the first time they had seen it in their lives.
Xiao Yan raised his head and looked at the dense black thunder in the sky with fanatical eyes. He shook his sleeves violently, and the lid of the fire cauldron was automatically flipped over. An insoluble medicinal fragrance quickly spread, and later, it condensed into beads of different colors, which fell densely from the sky, like a grand rain of elixir!

Seeing such a miracle, many alchemists couldn't help but feel their hearts trembling, as they were actually kneeling down below.

Looking at this scene, the pill on the top took a deep breath and murmured in a low voice with a slightly trembling voice.

"The rain of pills falls, and the mysterious pills come out!"

"Da da."

The pills poured down from the sky and fell on the square, making a clear sound like raindrops. Although these pills are not considered elixirs, they are condensed with pure energy. If you take them, they will be harmful to your health. The human body also has considerable effects.

Xiao Yan's figure was suspended in the sky. At this moment, even with his great concentration, he couldn't help but reveal ecstasy in his eyes. He had heard about the rain of elixirs and the appearance of mysterious elixirs, but this was the first time he had seen such a wonder with his own eyes.

"It actually worked."

Xiao Yan's hands trembled slightly as he took a pill. The result this time was beyond his expectations. Even with his current ability, the success rate of refining the ninth-grade Xuan Dan would not exceed 40%!
However, to be honest, this time of alchemy was a bit lucky. One pill contained the energy of four young pills. This was extremely rare. The medicinal properties of each of the four young pills were different. Although most of the medicinal power was transformed into pure energy after Xiao Yi's purification, there were still some medicinal properties in the residue. These subtle medicinal properties, along with the energy, were integrated into Xiao Yan's young pill. The fusion of each other, coupled with the fierce refining of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire, resulted in some subtle changes that ordinary people had never expected. The result of the change seemed to just make up for some imperfections in the young pill and led to the success of this alchemy.
If any one of these coincidences had been missed, even if Xiao Yan had absorbed the energy of three embryo pills, he would have ended in failure this time.

However, there are no "ifs" in the world, and people in the world will not pay attention to such false "ifs". The only thing they saw with their own eyes was that Xiao Yan actually succeeded in refining the ninth-grade Xuan Dan. No one had ever refined the ninth-grade Xuan Dan in hundreds of years, but today, it appeared again under their noses.

"Boom!"

Above the sky, in the thick dark clouds, black thunder was shuttling wildly like a giant python. The ferocious power of heaven made many people shrink their necks, fearing that the black thunder would fall on their heads.

"boom!"

As thunderclouds rolled in the sky, the huge fire cauldron, which was several hundred feet long, trembled violently, and then a beam of light shot up into the sky. In the beam of light, a ball of light that looked like an egg could be seen faintly.
A huge pillar of light pierced directly into the thundercloud in full view of everyone. Suddenly, the thundercloud began to churn violently. Black lightning, like a roaring black python, densely wrapped around the pillar of light, and then fiercely slammed into the light ball and egg inside the pillar of light.

"Boom boom boom!"

Under that earth-shattering bombardment, even the entire mountain of medicine began to tremble, and the deafening roar kept ringing.

Xiao Yan looked nervously at the light ball embryo egg under the thunderbolt. In it was the ninth-grade Xuandan. Only after experiencing this thunderbolt, it could break out of the womb. In this kind of thing, outsiders could not help. Even Xiao Yan could only choose to watch. The ninth-grade Xuandan was different from other elixirs. It could allow the person who refined it to intercept the pill thunder. This kind of Xuandan needed the power of thunder to make it completely perfect.
