Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 311 Brother Bai, I think we can hold on a little longer! (Supplement)

Silver flames burned fiercely in the medicine cauldron, and deep dragon roars echoed continuously. The space on the stone platform became somewhat distorted due to the high temperature.

Time passed slowly, and when a faint medicinal fragrance wafted out, it signaled that everyone's portion of the medicinal liquid had been successfully mixed.

"The final fusion that follows is of utmost importance. I urge all of you masters to persevere!" Tang Zhen looked at the group of people with varying expressions, a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

Fu and Tai were both pale. Although they had carefully controlled the flames, their soul power had been greatly depleted by the prolonged exposure to the Nine Dragons Thunderfire.

On the other side, wisps of white mist kept rising from Xiao Yan's head, and he was panting a little.

He was not afraid of the Nine Dragons Thunderfire, but he was only a three-star Douhuang. Although he was only responsible for a part of the seventh-grade pills, it was still a bit of a challenge for him.

"Young friend Xiao Bai, if you have the capacity, please lend a hand later!"

Taking in everyone's expressions, Tang Zhen knew that the greatest hope for the success of this alchemy rested on his shoulders.

Upon hearing this, the other three looked over.

Seeing that Xiao Bai's expression did not change at all, but instead seemed to have been waiting for them for a long time, he was resting his chin on his hand in a daze.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan didn't think anything of it. It would be abnormal if Brother Bai couldn't even handle a seventh-grade pill.

However, the expressions of the other two were quite interesting, especially Master Fu. Thinking of what he had said earlier, he was immediately filled with shame and indignation. His emotions fluctuated so violently that his face turned from white to red, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Such a scene speaks volumes.

Now, it's obvious to everyone, not just the people on the stage, but even the disciples of Burning Flame Valley, who has the better alchemy skills.

Interrupted from his thoughts, Xiao Bai looked up and saw Master Fu's dramatic change of expression. After a slight pause, he seemed to understand something, a smile flashing in his eyes, and he nodded.

"I tried my best!"

"Alright! Then I'll have to trouble you, young friend Xiao Bai!"

Tang Zhen laughed loudly. Although Xiao Bai did not say that success was certain, for some reason, the anxiety in his heart dissipated a lot.

"Gentlemen, if there are no problems, let's begin!"

Tang Zhen's voice startled Master Fu from his daze.

The old alchemist swallowed hard, his hands trembling.

At this moment, his soul power was almost exhausted, and he even began to see double images.

"Hang in there!" Master Fu gritted his teeth, forcing himself to persevere. "Don't let that kid laugh at us!"

Xiao Yan and Master Tai took a deep breath, forced themselves to stay alert, stuffed a handful of recovery pills into their mouths, and nodded emphatically.

Seeing this, Tang Zhen suddenly formed a hand seal, and the flames in the cauldron suddenly erupted.

Waves of intense heat emanated continuously from the medicine cauldron, causing the Burning Flame Valley disciples below the stage to hastily retreat.

"Now is the time. I ask the four of you to join forces and finally fuse the medicinal liquids in your hands!" Tang Zhen's gaze was solemn as he slowly swept over the four of them.

Xiao Yan and Tai Fu both had extremely solemn expressions, knowing in their hearts that this was the most crucial step.

If anything goes wrong here, the alchemy will fail completely, and none of them want the problem to be their own fault.

Inside the medicine cauldron, under the watchful eyes of everyone, four clumps of medicinal liquid slowly approached, and a force of resistance emanated from them.

The group quickly transformed their soul power into threads, wrapping them around their respective medicinal liquids and converging them towards the center.

While controlling the flames, Tang Zhen kept a close eye on everything happening inside the cauldron. Seeing the four clumps of liquid medicine slowly merge together, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Just then, one of the liquid clumps began to fluctuate violently and rebounded uncontrollably, causing his expression to change.

Sure enough, this scene seemed to be a trigger, causing the other clumps of liquid to lose their balance and also generate violent energy fluctuations.

"not good!"

Tang Zhen glanced at Master Fu, whose expression had changed drastically, and then Xiao Yan and Master Tai also turned pale and quickly formed hand seals.

However, the energy erupting from the cauldron at this moment was too intense and could not be controlled at all.

At the critical moment, a gentle yet vast spiritual power suddenly intervened, instantly stabilizing the agitated medicinal liquid.

Master Fu looked up in astonishment, meeting Xiao Bai's ambiguous gaze.

"Focus, old man," Xiao Bai's voice rang directly in his mind. "I don't want to start all over again."

Master Fu blushed, but he had to admit that if Xiao Bai hadn't intervened, his part would have failed.

What shocked him even more was that while Xiao Bai was helping him, the part he was responsible for still functioned perfectly. This control over the soul was simply unbelievable.

Tang Zhen finally breathed a sigh of relief and gave Xiao Bai a grateful look.

After glancing at Tang Zhen, Xiao Bai's gaze swept over Xiao Yan and Master Tai, whose faces were also pale. He sighed inwardly, waved his sleeve, and used his soul power to directly sever the medicinal liquid controlled by the two of them.

Facing the puzzled looks of the crowd, Xiao Bai smiled faintly and said:

"Valley Master Tang, release the Nine Dragons Thunderfire from your control. You don't need to worry about the rest!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately shocked.

"Young friend Xiao Bai, do you mean you're going to refine it all by yourself from now on?!" Tang Zhen's hesitant words voiced everyone's unspoken thoughts.

"What? It won't work?"

Xiao Bai was no longer the lazy person he was at the beginning, but now his eyes radiated a domineering aura, full of confidence and high spirits!

He simply couldn't stand by and watch; if he saved one, he might have to save another later.

This is too much trouble; I might as well do it myself.

Looking at Xiao Bai, whose demeanor had suddenly changed, Tang Zhen glanced at Master Tai and the others, who were in poor condition, and without further hesitation, gritted his teeth and said:

"Okay, I'll leave everything to you!"

Having said that, he released the flame controlled by his mind.

"Brother Bai, I think we can hold on a little longer!" Xiao Yan suddenly said.

If he gives up like this, Burning Flame Valley probably won't hand over the Heavenly Fire Three Transformations to him.

"!" Xiao Bai.

I don't know if this guy is really after the Three Transformations of Heavenly Fire, or if it's for something else.

"what ever!"

Xiao Bai didn't care; he just wanted this guy to participate and make a show of it.

As he spoke, Xiao Bai formed hand seals, no longer suppressing the fluctuations within his body. A powerful dragon roar, accompanied by rolling thunder, resounded within him.

In an instant, the nine fire dragons in the cauldron also seemed to be affected, and dragon roars emanated continuously, spreading throughout the entire valley.

This scene shocked everyone in Burning Flame Valley, their expressions were incredibly varied, and they all turned their gazes toward their Valley Master.

The dragon's roar. The thunder.

Why does this person seem like the true master of the Nine Dragons Thunderfire?

".!" Tang Zhen.

As he watched the nine thunder and fire dragons moving back and forth in the cauldron, he sensed an extreme excitement emanating from the Nine Dragon Thunderfire under his mental perception, and he instantly felt as if he had been betrayed.

Moreover, he had a premonition that once he separated the Nine Dragons Thunderfire from his body, even if the Burning Flame Valley had left some means on it, this inherited strange fire might also perish.

Xiao Yan's gaze was complicated. He was now extremely sensitive to strange flames, and this was the first time he had ever seen a strange flame throw itself into his arms.

This guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, we agreed he was the one who came.

"boom--"

As Xiao Bai completely released his inner energy, the entire medicine cauldron trembled violently.

Nine silver-white fire dragons coiled and danced from the medicine cauldron, emitting joyful dragon roars. Four balls of medicinal liquid emitting blue and red light were surrounded by the fire dragons, and the energy agitation on them slowly subsided and merged together again.

Tang Zhen watched as the two colors of light gradually intertwined in the medicine cauldron. He could no longer wonder why Xiao Bai controlled his strange fire so skillfully. His heart was in his throat.

Will it succeed?

All eyes were fixed on Xiao Bai, who was now forming hand seals with his ten fingers dancing like butterflies among flowers. With each light tap of his fingertips, a wisp of soul power was precisely injected into the medicine cauldron.

Nine silver-white fire dragons swirled and danced with his movements, completely enveloping the medicinal liquid.

"Freeze!"

With a soft shout, Xiao Bai caused the medicinal liquid in the cauldron to suddenly contract, and the blue and red lights intertwined to form a nascent pill the size of a longan.

An astonishing surge of energy instantly emanated from the medicine cauldron.

In an instant, a rich fragrance of cinnamon wafted out from the high platform and spread throughout the entire square.

"boom--"

Suddenly, dark clouds filled the sky, and thunder rumbled.

"Danlei?!"

Tang Zhen suddenly looked up, his face filled with ecstatic joy.

Only when a seventh-grade elixir is successfully formed will this extraordinary phenomenon be triggered. At that moment, his heart pounded violently, and he looked excitedly at the cauldron.

He didn't expect that Xiao Bai would actually succeed, completing the most difficult step of making the pill all by himself, and seemingly without any pressure.

If he hadn't known the difficulty of refining a high-grade seventh-rank pill, he would have had the illusion that he could do it too.

"Alas, I misjudged him. This person's alchemy skills are probably no less than, and perhaps even greater than, those of that little vixen!"

Master Tai stiffened, looked up at the rapidly gathering dark clouds in the sky, then his gaze returned to Xiao Bai's fluid and pleasing movements. He couldn't help but shake his head with a wry smile.

He then glanced at Master Fu beside him and noticed that his gaze was blank and his face was somewhat ashen, which made him feel a little sympathetic.

They began learning alchemy from a young age and were hailed by many as alchemy geniuses, but compared to such true geniuses, they were nothing.

At just over twenty years old, they have already surpassed the achievements of decades or even centuries of hard work. How can this not make people feel discouraged?

Moreover, there were not just one, but two such geniuses!

Looking at Xiao Yan, who was still sitting by the medicine cauldron, and then at that slightly delicate and youthful face, her mood worsened!

Master Tai sighed inwardly, his gaze turning to the two young figures before the medicine cauldron with a complex mix of emotions.

"Haha, Xiao Bai, you just focus on taking care of the pills. Leave the matter of the Pill Thunder to me!"

Seeing that the lightning was about to strike, Tang Zhen laughed loudly and got up to deal with the lightning in the air.

"No!"

Xiao Bai shouted loudly, his voice booming and echoing throughout the square, even drowning out the thunder in the sky.

"Young friend, don't worry, I guarantee that not a single trace of the pill lightning will affect you!"

Tang Zhen thought Xiao Bai was afraid that he would leave the platform and be left unprotected, so he patted his chest to assure him and then flashed into the thunderclouds.

"Little Yanzi, keep a close eye on the medicine cauldron from now on!"

Seeing that the pills in the cauldron had stabilized, Xiao Bai withdrew his soul power, gave Xiao Yan some instructions, and then, with a sound of wind and thunder beneath his feet, he soared into the sky.

At the same time, he was also speechless at Tang Zhen's impatient nature. He was counting on Dan Lei to break through to the fifth-star level this time, so he mustn't let him destroy the thundercloud!

Just as Tang Zhen was about to intercept Dan Lei, a black shadow flashed past him, like a bolt of lightning piercing through space, and rushed directly into the thundercloud!

"Young friend Xiao Bai! Don't be rash!"

Upon seeing the figure in the lightning, Tang Zhen was instantly horrified and shouted.

However, Xiao Bai ignored it, standing in the thunderclouds with his arms outstretched, letting the violent lightning strike him!

"boom--!"

The silvery-white lightning roared down like an angry dragon, instantly engulfing Xiao Bai's figure.

"hiss--"

On the plaza, the disciples of Burning Flame Valley gasped in shock. Even Master Fu and Master Tai stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

"Has this guy... gone mad?!"

That's pill lightning triggered by a seventh-grade pill; even a Dou Zong expert wouldn't dare to withstand it head-on!

Everyone present was puzzled by Xiao Bai's reckless impulsiveness. If he had used his strength to withstand the lightning, they would have believed he could, but to directly collide with the lightning with his body was a different story.

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines and quickly shook their heads, trying to shake off the image of just a charred piece of wood from their minds.

They couldn't believe that such a young alchemy master, who was even a high-ranking eighth-grade grandmaster, had lost his mind.

"Cool!"

Amidst the thunder, Xiao Bai's voice carried a hint of exhilaration!

He had wanted to try the eighth-grade pill lightning last time, but the eighth-grade five-colored pill lightning made him a little nervous at the time. In addition, there were external enemies at the time, and the pill was too important to be lost, so he gave up the idea of ​​testing the lightning with himself.

Finally, use the Earth Demon Puppet to block the Pill Lightning, and incidentally increase its strength so that it can transform into the Heavenly Demon Puppet as soon as possible.

However, this time he absolutely couldn't miss it; a seventh-grade pill lightning strike—its intensity was just right for him.

Having previously improved his mental state, his cultivation had reached the peak of the fourth star. This pill refining was a good opportunity for him to break through, which was one of the reasons he agreed to this pill refining.

Amidst the gazes of the crowd, Xiao Bai, bathed in the center of the lightning, was not only unharmed, but his aura continued to rise!

"He's...absorbing the Dan Lei?!"

Tang Zhen, who was about to pull Xiao Bai out of the thunder, paused, his pupils contracted sharply, and he finally realized his plan.

"Is he trying to use lightning to break through? What a sly one."

For a moment, Tang Zhen couldn't think of a word to describe Xiao Bai's actions.

Call it crazy? They clearly had this planned in advance and didn't seem to be afraid of the thunder at all. But if you ask what's normal, what thunder master would do something like this?

Wait, is Lei a pharmacist?

Tang Zhen found some strange thoughts popping into his mind.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

One bolt of lightning after another struck down, but Xiao Bai was like a fish in water, even actively guiding the power of the lightning into his body to temper his physical body and fighting spirit!

"This guy... he's a monster!"

Xiao Yan looked up at the sky, feeling the heart-pounding lightning, which struck him like a machine gun, and his lips twitched involuntarily.

This guy's body is getting more and more monstrous!

He thought his cultivation method was crazy enough, but he didn't expect Brother Bai to be such a ruthless person!

boom!

boom!

boom!

Bolts of lightning, as thick as buckets, crisscrossed the thunderclouds, tearing through the dim sky and striking the black-robed figure in the center.

After observing for a while, Tang Zhen found that Xiao Bai's breathing was not disordered at all and was even rising, so he gradually felt relieved.

"So this is a seventh-grade elixir?"

As the dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, Xiao Yan turned his gaze to the medicine cauldron, where a perfectly round, bluish-red pill was spinning rapidly, its rich aroma instantly rousing his weary mind.

"Valley Master Tang, it's up to you!" Seeing Tang Zhen fall from the sky, Xiao Yan pointed to the pills that were trying to escape from the medicine cauldron and smiled slightly.

"Haha, young friend Xiao Yan, and the two masters, thank you for your trouble!" Tang Zhen put away the pills and clasped his hands in greeting to the three people on the high platform.

Although the final decision on the pill refining was made by Xiao Bai, the others had also done their best in the process, and he would not forget their kindness.

Looking up at Xiao Bai, who was sitting cross-legged in the air, he knew that Xiao Bai's breakthrough would take time. After instructing an elder not far away to take good care of him, he turned his gaze to Xiao Yan.

Her gaze lingered on his pale face for a moment, a complex expression flashing across her face, before she regained her composure and said softly:

"Come with me!"
