Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

When the extraordinary fire emerges, all other fires submit!

The group of alchemists looked at Xiao Yan in shock; this person actually possessed a strange fire.

In the vast arena of the Pill Gathering, the appearance of someone possessing a different kind of fire is not actually that rare, but seeing it in person still inevitably evokes feelings of envy.

Seeing the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, Xiao Yan felt slightly speechless.

You would be truly astonished if you saw your senior brother's flames.

As a former practitioner of the "Burning Technique," Xiao Yan knew that Han Feng had already devoured a considerable amount of strange fire, and the level of this technique had probably already broken through the Heavenly Rank.

The crimson Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron settled in front of Han Feng.

The medicine cauldron listed on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking immediately attracted the attention of some people nearby.

"The Cauldron of Ten Thousand Beasts!"

"It's actually one of the Heavenly Cauldrons!"

"This person seems to be a troublesome one... What?!"

boom!

The power of the Xuanhuang Flame stirred the heavens and earth, instantly suppressing the flames in the hands of the surrounding alchemists, and almost extinguishing them.

It's fortunate that we've only just begun and haven't entered the alchemy stage yet, otherwise the cauldron would have exploded immediately.

"Exotic fire!"

Han Feng pointed a single finger, and all the Xuanhuang Flames flew into the Myriad Beasts Cauldron.

Under his deliberate manipulation, the surrounding pressure subsided considerably, but it still changed the mindset of the alchemists, who became more reserved when they summoned flames again.

"My senior brother has started to exert his strength, so I should hurry up too."

Xiao Yan calmed his mind and took out the prepared medicinal herbs one by one, beginning to refine them in sequence.

In the stands, the three giants of the Dan Tower all focused their attention on Han Feng.

"He is Yao Chen's disciple, Han Feng."

"Isn't there another one named Xiao Yan?"

Among the three, Tian Lei Zi, the only one who wasn't very familiar with Yao Chen, said something.

Neither Xuan Kongzi nor Xuan Yi spoke. The two were in the know; the baby Yao Chen had adopted back then was named Han Feng.

"They are all formidable figures, Fallen Heart Flame and Xuanhuang Flame."

Xuan Kongzi sighed.

"The three of them, master and disciples, each had a strange fire."

Xuan Yi looked at Han Feng's skillful alchemy technique and his composed demeanor, finding no fault in him. If it were up to him, he probably couldn't do it as well.

"This Han Feng is no ordinary person..."

The disciples trained by Yao Chen are indeed quite good!

Time passed by minute by minute.

Alchemy is a very patient process, especially when it comes to refining high-quality pills. It is normal to spend ten days to half a month refining them continuously.

Most of the cultivators who came to visit the alchemy gathering were mentally prepared for this, so they were not impatient. Moreover, the opportunity to observe so many alchemists refining pills was rare, and if they could glean some insights from it, they would still be the ones who benefited.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

A small group of alchemists have successfully refined the pills, but as the pills were completed, they also knew that their journey in this pill-refining competition had come to an end.

Pills refined in five days are mostly only grade five unless the alchemist is exceptionally skilled. Some people might be able to break through the limits, but no matter what, they can't compete with grade seven or eight pills.

These alchemists left the stage in disappointment, while the remaining contestants will demonstrate even more dazzling and brilliant achievements.

Another five days passed.

The first beam of energy rose from the stone platform, signifying the appearance of the first Rank 6 pill in this alchemy competition. The competition will now officially enter the Rank 6 level.

A sixth-grade pill is already at the pinnacle level in the Jia Ma Empire of the Northwest Continent, yet there are still nearly a hundred alchemists continuing to refine them.

"It's entered a heated phase."

On the stands, some discerning cultivators remarked.

The sixth-grade extraordinary phenomenon, the next step is...

"Boom!"

Dark clouds filled the sky, and the first rumble of thunder sounded.

"Danlei, it's Danlei!"

On the stone platform, a man was overjoyed. He was the one who had summoned the first bolt of lightning!

At the Pill Gathering, some people may not achieve a good ranking, but the appearance of the first Pill Lightning can certainly enhance their reputation.

The birth of the first burst of pill lightning caused a slight tension in the hearts of the others.

With the arrival of Dan Lei, the energy fluctuations will become increasingly intense. Whether we can reach the peak will depend not only on alchemy skills, but also on the clash between battle qi, soul power, and flames!

The time has come for everyone to display their prowess!

Cao Ying changed her hand gestures, and the Blood Demon Flame burst forth with a strange light. The power of the essence blood of a thousand kinds of demonic beasts raised the energy within the medicine cauldron to a higher level.

A pure soul fluctuation lit up between Dan Chen's brows, and her soul power conjured up her human-shaped phantom, her hands enveloping the medicine cauldron.

Xiao Yan took a deep breath, and the Fallen Heart Flame transformed into an invisible fire dragon, swirling above the medicine cauldron.

The other alchemists also unleashed their trump cards.

For a time, strange phenomena appeared in the sky above Danhui, which was the most glorious highlight!

However, Han Feng continued his cultivation calmly, unaffected by these auras.

"Hahaha, I did it, I did it!"

An alchemist held a newly refined seventh-grade pill in his hand and laughed wildly, looking up at the sky.

Some are happy, and others are sad.

Some alchemists who exploded their cauldrons not only ruined their own achievements in the Alchemy Gathering, but also affected the alchemists around them.

Those who were unlucky simply had to leave the stage.

After several batches of alchemists who had successfully refined or destroyed their alchemy left, only thirty-six alchemists remained on the stone platform.

These are true masters, strong enough to break into the top ten!

At this stage, it's no longer a matter of who can delay the longest; the key is whether or not the pill can be successfully formed!

Thunderclouds covered the entire sky, creating a tense atmosphere.

Several silver lightning bolts struck down, and several more alchemists completed their pills.

Song Qing held the peak seventh-grade pill in his hand, his eyes revealing joy.

Peak of the seventh rank! Breaking into the top ten shouldn't be a problem.

He looked up at the people on the other stone platforms and found that Cao Ying was still continuing.

The joy in his heart faded slightly. Song Qing sensed that Cao Ying might have set her sights on a higher level, but he was no longer qualified or capable of trying.

Chapter 336 Ascension to Spirit

Dan Chen spat out a mouthful of blood, which landed on the medicine cauldron. The intense flames quickly evaporated the blood, mixing it into the medicine.

As the essence of his blood seeped in, a green beam of light, ten feet in size, burst forth from the cauldron and shot straight into the sky.

Under this green beam of light, the silver lightning in the sky instantly retreated, and instead a streak of cyan lightning appeared.

"Two-Colored Thunder!"

"An eighth-grade elixir!"

Everyone exclaimed.

There is a world of difference between the seventh and eighth ranks. The former is a master, while the latter is a grandmaster of alchemy, whom even a Dou Zun powerhouse dares not underestimate.

Cao Ying smiled faintly when she saw her competitor refine an eighth-grade pill.

As expected of you...

However, I won't lose!

"rise!"

Cao Ying changed her hand seals and let out a soft shout, causing a beam of red light to shoot into the sky from the medicine cauldron.

The thunderclouds in the sky quickly took on silver and blue hues, along with a faint hint of red.

"Another rank eight!"

"It's still the three-colored Dan Lei, my goodness!"

Amidst gasps of surprise, the Cao family members wore proud smiles.

This is the strength of the Cao family's prodigy!

The mere Dan family is still a step behind!

Song Qing clenched his fists, somewhat unwilling to acknowledge what was happening before him.

The woman he loved had surpassed him without him even realizing it, making him seem utterly incompetent.

If they had both been high-level seventh-grade alchemists from the beginning, even if they knew that Cao Ying's soul power and alchemy skills were stronger, they would still have been able to justify their actions.

But now, Cao Ying has refined an eighth-grade pill of three-colored thunder quality in front of everyone, which has reduced him, the pride of the Pill Tower, to an ordinary person.

Although the difference between a peak seventh-grade pill and an eighth-grade pill is only a fine line, there are more than one condition that needs to be met to cross that boundary.

Even a prodigy as strong as Song Qing, who studied under the Grand Elder of the Pill Tower, wouldn't dare guarantee that he could become an eighth-grade alchemist with a little effort.

Seeing that the two on the field had successfully refined the eighth-grade pill, only four people remained on the field.

"I didn't expect Yao Chen's two disciples to be so capable. Han Feng is one thing, I can't even see through his aura, but that Xiao Yan, he's just a Dou Huang, how can he refine an eighth-grade pill? Or is he just putting on a show?"

Xuan Kongzi frowned and spoke softly.

When he competed with Yao Chen back then, he lost to him. So they made an agreement that their respective disciples would compete in the future to see who would win.

In terms of age, Han Feng is definitely older, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that his alchemy skills are more advanced.

However, Xiao Yan looks to be about the same age as Ying Er; I wonder if he will succeed.

After a while, the energy levels of the four people locked in this stalemate reached their peak.

Finally, the energy around Xiao Yan moved first.

He formed a hand seal and activated his elixir, and a beam of light shot into the clouds.

Silver, cyan, red!

The three colors of the Dan Lei were distinct, especially the third color, which was even more obvious than Cao Ying's.

"It's done!"

Xiao Yan smiled, but he did not let his guard down. Instead, he became even more cautious and manipulated the flames, which hovered around the medicine cauldron.

boom!

The other two, Qinghua the Old Monster, who had made a name for himself in the world of alchemy, and the eighth-grade alchemist sent by the Soul Palace, also began to form pills.

Three-color elixir!

Three-color elixir!

The two of them simultaneously refined a perfect three-colored Dan Lei quality pill. As veteran alchemists, such a result was considered average, without any mistakes, but without anything particularly outstanding.

Han Feng opened his eyes at this moment.

With his alchemy skills, he could have already condensed the pill long ago, but in order to wait for Xiao Yan, he deliberately kept the pill stable until the last second before condensation.

The Nine-Colored Pill Lightning is too terrifying. If it were refined in advance, Xiao Yan's soul control would probably not be able to maintain it.

Just as Han Feng was about to change his hand seals, Xiao Yan's voice suddenly came from afar.

"Senior brother, I want to try the Spirit Ascension!"
