Battle Through the Heavens: Reap the Red Lotus Karmic Flame at the Start
577. Everyone Speeds Up
However, the only thing that puzzled everyone was: who was the alchemist who refined the two-colored, eighth-grade pill? The person who refined the pill was standing right there, but no one recognized him.
During the year-long uproar, this person seemed to have never shown his face, only standing next to Ling Zhuo when he emerged from the Pill Realm just now. Judging from his behavior, they could only conclude that he was also a member of the Spirit Clan. Had the Spirit Clan become that terrifying? This was a question unconsciously on everyone's minds.
However, the impact of this person was completely shattered by the subsequent lightning strikes. Just as Yi Xu and Ling Yu had absorbed all the lightning from the eighth-grade pills, two beams of light appeared almost simultaneously. This time, the owners of the two pills were unfamiliar faces.
The Cao family, Cao Ying!
Dan family, Dan Chen!
The two female alchemy geniuses completed their pills almost simultaneously. As the aroma of the medicine filled the air, a massive pillar of energy rose once more. Cao Ying's Blood Demon Flame transformed into a crimson vortex within the cauldron, and finally, a pill of extremely high quality rose slowly from it.
A strange, alluring force emanated from the stone platform where Dan Chen stood. Having endured half a month on it, she was now utterly exhausted. With a light tap of her bloodless fingers, a pale blue pill emerged from the cauldron.
At this moment, however, the crowd's attention was not on the two individuals. After all, the emergence of each grade eight pill was accompanied by a unique and spectacular sight, and most of the audience members, who were not alchemists, could not discern the pill's grade from its appearance alone. What the audience cared about most was the color of the thunderclouds in the sky; the color of the pill's lightning revealed everything!
"A single-colored thundercloud!" Among those present were quite a few sharp-eyed individuals who immediately noticed the varying colors and quantities of the thunderbolts amidst the raging chaos: "Dan Chen is still young after all, he hasn't experienced any real training..."
"Come on, you probably won't even be a tenth of that level when you're twenty."
"Cao Ying has two colors!"
"Moreover, the density of these thunderclouds is even greater than that of the two-colored thunderclouds from before!"
"With such formidable strength and even more terrifying talent, what price did the Spirit Race pay to obtain this demoness?"
……
It can only be said that Cao Ying lives up to her reputation as a bewitching beauty. Although she has been forced to join the Spirit Clan due to circumstances, her reputation, built up over many years as a disciple of Xuan Kongzi, still makes her one of the most anticipated contestants in this Alchemy Gathering. And now, Cao Ying is loudly proclaiming with her actions that she still possesses an almost monstrous talent in the path of alchemy!
Meanwhile, Cao Ying's teacher, Xuan Kongzi, witnessed this scene from the high platform, his heart filled with conflict. On one hand, Cao Ying, at such a young age of just over twenty, had already accomplished this much, and as her mentor on the path of alchemy, Xuan Kongzi was genuinely happy for her.
On the other hand, it was precisely because of this enviable talent that Cao Ying was controlled by the Spirit Clan, and her personal freedom was completely unprotected. This was a huge mistake on the part of her teacher and even the entire upper echelons of the Pill Tower. Originally, if it weren't for that human experiment, Cao Ying might not have achieved what she has today, but she would never have been used by the Spirit Clan as a banner against the Pill Tower.
Success or failure, right or wrong, is all shaped by one's own hands. At this moment, the myriad feelings in Xuan Kongzi's heart are difficult for others to truly understand.
……
The entire square had been in an uproar the moment Cao Ying and Dan Chen drew out the thunder. Countless people stared at the brightly colored thunderclouds in the sky with bloodshot eyes, their hearts surging with excitement, and their blood boiling in that instant!
At this very moment, the prestige of the Spirit Clan was also pushed to its peak thanks to the collective success of the four Rank 8 alchemists.
Even Xiao Yan's most fervent fans fell silent amidst the cheers, for supporters only had the right to speak when they saw the achievements of the person they admired. At this moment, all four of the Spirit Clan's top experts had successfully produced eighth-grade pills, while Xiao Yan and his companions were still refining their pills, showing no signs of them nearing completion.
Even Mu Qingluan on the high platform was somewhat anxious: "How can these people from the Spirit Clan be so fast? It's really worrying. I wonder how my senior brother is doing."
Although Qinglin, who was standing next to her, was not as anxious as Mu Qingluan because of her complete confidence in Xiao Yan, her tightly clenched hands still betrayed her inner thoughts.
"Don't be impatient, trust him." Little Fairy Doctor, who was at the center of the group, looked calm and composed, showing no sign of urgency.
Fei Tian, who had been standing by the side the whole time, gleaned some meaning from Xiao Yixian's words with his usual experience: "Did the young master and young mistress give any explanation beforehand?"
Little Fairy Doctor, while keeping her eyes on Xiao Yan, shook her head: "He didn't say anything to me, but I know his personality. He would never let other people's performance disrupt his plans, and his medicine-refining speed must be normal."
"His alchemy skills are beyond question. If he hasn't slowed down, then it must be that the Spirit Clan members have sped up. They must have a specific purpose in pushing the speed up so much. There's no use in us being anxious now; we should just wait and see."
"The young mistress's thoughtfulness is truly something that puts this old man to shame," Fei Tian said respectfully.
Since Little Fairy Doctor became pregnant, and neither she nor Xiao Yan intended to hide it, Fei Tian changed how he addressed her. Fei Tian, and indeed everyone in the Starfall Pavilion, truly respected Little Fairy Doctor as their "young mistress." Even though most of them had seen Xun'er's true face and knew of her devastating beauty and her ability to easily command Dou Zun level experts, their experiences only strengthened their belief in Little Fairy Doctor.
As for Little Fairy Doctor, she was initially surprised to hear the title, but immediately accepted it readily. She might feel shy in front of Xiao Yan, but she never wanted to hide her true feelings and love for him. Especially after that night at Starfall Pavilion, when she and Xun'er had a serious conversation.
Xiao Yan was indeed surprised by the actions of the four members of the Spirit Clan. He knew that it was one thing for someone to speed up, but the fact that the four members of the Spirit Clan were all so eager to save time meant that they must have something in mind.
However, now that he, Wei Jiangyuan, and Yao Qingyu have all entered the latter half of the pill-forming process, even if they know the Spirit Clan's plan, they cannot abandon the pills that are about to be completed.
Half a day after the four members of the Spirit Clan finished making the pills, an unusual commotion also occurred inside the medicine cauldron controlled by Ling Zhuo, the true genius of the Spirit Clan.
