Chapter 686 - Fusion
Mobile Read
In the end, Long Chen decided to allow Hua Biluo to become a Skywalker. After all, her current situation was entirely related to herself, so a man should be able to take responsibility…
However, Long Chen didn’t give her the Heavenly Dao Fruit. In two days, he would use the Heavenly Dao Fruit to refine a pill for her to consume.
On one hand, he didn’t want her to know about it. The Heaven’s Path Fruit was such a heaven defying treasure. This sort of thing wasn’t something that one could trust. He absolutely couldn’t tell her about it.
On the other hand, this would allow Hua Biluo’s refinement to become Skywalker more quickly.
That night, Hua Biluo fell asleep in Long Chen’s room. Although she was already a Xiantian expert, her mental and physical torment from the past few days had exhausted her body and mind.
Now that Long Chen was here, she let go of all her luggage and laid down on Long Chen’s bed, sleeping peacefully.
Long Chen hadn’t slept the entire night as he was researching plans for the future. There wasn’t a single good thing in the Huo family from top to bottom. How was he going to destroy the Huo family completely?
However, after hearing the words of the Tower Lord today, it was clear that no small movements were allowed during the Large Competition. It seemed that they could only wait until the Large Competition ended and when the Tower Lord and the rest left.
Fang Mingyuan had told Long Chen that although the two families weren’t as strong as the Huo Family, they still had the strength to fight.
However, the Huo Family had many supporters and it was a terrifying force. If Long Chen could become the champion of the Large Competition, the situation would be reversed.
Those who had originally been attached to the Huo family would either turn their backs on them or stay out of the matter. They would not rashly line up until the situation at the Pill Tower became clear.
“Eh, looks like I’ll have to obtain first place in the Large Competition. However, I wonder what the prize for first place in the Large Competition will be. It is really something that I am looking forward to!”
Long Chen took a sip of his tea and realized that it was already dawn. Seeing Hua Biluo still lying there, sleeping soundly, he knew that she had been having a hard time recently and didn’t disturb him.
Gently pushing open the door, a fresh air blew over, causing Long Chen’s heart to tremble. He quickly left the room, preparing to look for Fang Chang.
However, just as they walked out of the big doors, they saw not far away in the pavilion, Fang Chang and Chai Lie were sitting there and chatting.
"Young Master Fang, do you know? "Last night, I did it five times with Jinzhen. It felt so good that it overturned the sky!" Young Master Chai said very proudly. When men brought up this topic, they were always very confident.
“That’s nothing. I did that a whole seven times last night. I was worshipped to death by Shui Hua. She said I was the most ‘amazing’ man in the world.”
Young Master Fang was naturally not to be outdone. Regardless of whether what he said was true or not, he still had a lot of confidence in himself. When the two of them saw Long Chen walk over, Young Master Fang rolled his eyes and called out: "Third Young Master, how many times did you do last night?"
Long Chen knew that these two idiots were doing it on purpose. He said snappily, "One time!"
“Goddammit, it’s only once. Isn’t it too embarrassing?” As expected, these two idiots immediately opened their mouths to mock him. ad)
Long Chen sat down and sighed. Looking into the distance, his eyes were filled with helplessness. "Yes, I did it once. When the sun rose, she said," Can you let me rest for a while? "
Young Master Fang, "…"
Young Master Chai, "…"
The two of them did not react for a long time. It was Young Master Fang who was more nimble. He patted Long Chen on the shoulder and said: “Third Young Master’s acting skills are indeed unrivalled. Young Master Chai, we still need to continue learning!”
Long Chen said, “Stop bullshitting. Looking at the time, there’s not much time left until the finals. I’m going to go into seclusion and concoct pills.”
"Going into seclusion again. Are you a monster?" Fang Chang and Chai Lie jumped up.
“I have to go into seclusion. Although my soul force is strong, my foundation isn’t even half as strong as yours. Compared to you guys, I lack a lot of alchemy experience.”
I still have a lot of room for improvement, so during this period of time, let’s just consider it sharpening my spear. If I can improve just a bit, I’ll have a better chance of defeating Huo Wu. I don’t have much time to waste … "
Fang Chang and Flame couldn’t help but feel deep veneration for him. Pill refining was a very boring and painful thing to do. They were completely focused and trembling, but in reality, it was a type of suffering.
Fang Chang and Chai Lie had also been forced to go into closed door cultivation for a few days now, and they were almost vomiting from their alchemy practice. Seeing Long Chen being so keen on alchemy, they couldn’t help but sigh in their hearts, if they were as diligent as Long Chen, their achievements might not be much lower than Huo Wu Fang.
“Arrange a quiet room for me. It would be the best if there was something bigger. I will go into seclusion with Bi Luo. On one hand, I’m afraid that Huo Wu Fang will snatch my woman away. On the other hand, hehe, when pill refining gets tired, you guys understand …” Long Chen chuckled.
“I understand. It’s a man. Hehe, Long San, this idea of yours is really good. Young Master Chai, how about we give it a try as well? If you’re tired from refining, then you can relax a bit more.” Fang Chang smiled evilly.
“Indeed, this is a great attempt. If it succeeds, our names might be recorded in the annals of history. That’s good, let’s go back and go into closed door cultivation as well. Let’s give it a try!”
And just like that, Long Chen obtained a secret chamber that was one hundred feet square. What made Long Chen unable to laugh wryly was that within the secret chamber, there was actually a beautiful large bed. It was extremely sudden.
“Ai, brothers, you’ve troubled yourself.” Long Chen looked at the large bed and couldn’t help but sigh with emotion. It was indeed men who were lecherous.
“What is this’ big bed 'for?” Hua Biluo looked at the luxurious bed and asked puzzledly. It was her first time seeing a bed in the place where they went into closed door cultivation.
Long Chen quickly spoke some nonsense, hiding the truth, and then began to concoct pills.
The process of refining the pill this time was very simple. It was simply extracting the energy from the Heavenly Energy Fruit. After the pill was formed, he directly gave it to Hua Biluo and let her refine it.
Seeing that Hua Biluo had entered a meditative state, Long Chen found a place to sit down cross-legged. With a wave of his hand, hundreds of Treasures appeared in front of Long Chen.
These precious medicinal herbs were all ingredients for Gong Qizhu. Ever since he had obtained the last stalk of rare medicinal herb from Huo Wu Fang, the ingredients had all been gathered together.
However, there had been too many things happening recently. He didn’t have the time to concoct pills. Now that he finally had the chance, Long Chen’s heart became extremely excited.
The Nine Star Tyrant Body Technique would have earth-shattering changes to its combat power every time it activated one star, especially when it activated the third star. The God Ring was actually able to block the heaven’s way and the cry.
He didn’t know what would happen when he opened the fourth star, but Long Chen carefully arranged the ingredients according to a certain order.
"Phew!"
A blue flame rose from Long Chen’s hand. Long Chen’s mind trembled as he exclaimed, “Little Flame, you’ve actually become strong again!”
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, a blue Long Hao flew out from Long Chen’s arm. It was only three feet long, and looked like a small snake. It gently coiled around Long Chen’s arm and intimately rubbed against it.
Long Chen discovered that Little Flame’s originally light blue flame had actually become a lot darker and its strength had increased by a lot.
Most importantly, Little Fire was becoming more and more adept at controlling his own strength. He was no longer as violent or difficult to control as he was in the past.
“Alright, with your help, I’ll be able to achieve twice the results with half the work!”
Long Chen laughed out loud. Little Flame’s strength had brought him great convenience. He refined precious medicines into medicinal powder one by one.
He had to admit that Little Fire was extremely sharp. It would only take a few breaths of time for a rare potion to be refined into a medicinal powder.
Furthermore, as Little Flame grew stronger, it became more and more convenient for Long Chen to control it. There would be no mistakes.
"Phew!"
As Long Chen slowly placed the powder into the pill furnace, he constantly observed the change in the powder with an extremely serious expression.
There was no name for this pill in the outside world, nor was there a recipe for this pill, so he had no idea what level it was.
However, all the ingredients required were all level six and extremely difficult to refine. Even among the level six pills, it was extremely difficult to refine one.
Those who were able to concoct a Tier 6 pill were all known as experts from the Pill Sect. They were veteran alchemists like Huo Changsheng, Fang Mingyuan, and Chai Gaoyang, who had spent their entire lives concocting pills to obtain this title.
Since alchemists cultivated the Innate Flame, their cultivation growth was not very fast. Therefore, once they reached the Xiantian Realm, their progress would be slow.
Puff.
"Ai!"
Long Chen let out a sigh. Looking at the ashes in the pill furnace, Long Chen felt a little helpless.
There was only the recipe and no specific method to concoct the Miasma Awakening Pill. It was different from the Wind Mansion Pill, Jade Mansion Pill, and Life Bestowal Pill. Long Chen needed to know the method himself.
“Looks like this Pill God’s memories are seriously missing …” Long Chen couldn’t help but feel a little helpless. He didn’t understand it at the moment. How could such a small portion of the Pill God’s memories enter his mind?
“Lord Pill God, your other memories can be lost, but the nine formulas of the Nine Star Tyrant Body Technique should not be lost! I’m counting on the Nine Star Tyrant Body Technique to survive!”
Long Chen prayed in his heart. Without his dantian, he would have lost his spirit root, spirit blood, and spirit bones. If it wasn’t for the Nine Star Tyrant Body Technique, he would have been reborn long ago.
"Again!"
Long Chen clenched his teeth. In any case, there were a lot of ingredients. He was not afraid of the cost. At most, he would just test it out a few more times.
Bang.
Inside the pill furnace, there was another pile of ashes.
Long Chen took out a piece of paper and wrote, "The Seven Stars Grass and Ai Li Guo cannot fuse together …"
It was Long Chen’s first time experiencing such a difficult process. He had to rely on himself to feel everything. There were more than a hundred ingredients and he knew most of their taboos. However, after fusing more than three ingredients, he started to become chaotic.
Therefore, as Long Chen experimented, he made notes. He needed to fuse all of the medicinal powder based on his experience.
On Long Chen’s paper, there were countless records of failure, but Long Chen knew that every failure was a step closer to success.
It was very simple. Failure was a method of elimination. The more failures one failed, the closer one would be to the correct method.
Only when the front and back of the piece of paper was completely memorized did Long Chen finally sigh in relief. He had found the true fusion process.
"Buzz!"
Just as Long Chen let out a breath of relief, there was suddenly a loud bang that came from within the body of the distant Bi Luo.
"Success?" Long Chen was slightly shocked. So fast.
Just as Long Chen was astonished, a red light appeared on the walls of the secret room. On it, a row of words appeared: The Large Competition is about to begin.
The finals of chapter 687 began

In front of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, Long Chen still felt a bit dazed. How was it possible that time passed so quickly? There were obviously still many days left, but how did it happen in the blink of an eye? .
He had just figured out the correct fusion process, and before he could even concoct the first pill, he was pulled out to participate in the finals.
It was still the same arena, but it felt much wider than before because all the thousand or so platforms had been removed, leaving only eighty-nine platforms behind. Because there were only eighty-nine people that could participate in the finals, the arena suddenly became spacious.
It was still a sea of people outside. Because it was the finals, more and more people came. There were not only alchemists, but also countless martial cultivators who came to broaden their horizons.
“F * ck, why are you squeezing, don’t you have eyes?” A white robed man looked at a man with slanted eyes and cursed in disdain.
There were countless experts gathered in Danyang City for this grand event. Both the good and evil came together to watch the show.
“You’re looking to die!” That evil man was furious. If it wasn’t for the fact that he couldn’t use force here, he could have killed this idiot in front of him with a single slash.
"You are only f * cking courting death, do you dare to touch your father’s finger? “Pfft!” The man in white sneered with a disdainful look on his face.
"You … “Just you wait, don’t let me see you on the battlefield!” That evil expert was about to die from anger, he couldn’t make a move here, so he simply moved somewhere else.
"Ahh …"
Suddenly, a woman among the crowd screamed. The crowd hurriedly looked over and saw that it was an evil woman wearing a black robe with a devil’s portrait drawn on her chest.
However, there were two large, black handprints on the white demon portrait on her chest. The handprint was very unique, and its outline was very perfect, making one think of it.
“Bastard! If you dare touch me, I’ll kill you!” The evil woman was furious. She gripped her sword tightly and glared at the man in front of her.
The man said with a wronged expression, “You can’t blame me for this. There are too many people here. It’s too crowded. I was pushed. What did I catch in my panic? Just hold me up.”
“Oh, by the way, thank you elder sister, I owe you a great debt. If it wasn’t for elder sister’s big chest, I would have fallen down. Thank you very much!”
The man quickly bowed, but his face was covered with an obscene expression. His hands continuously gestured, repeatedly savoring the feeling of his hands.
"You … “You guys are just a bunch of idiots. Hmph, all you know is how to play tricks. Just you wait. Sooner or later, one day, we will kill you all!” The woman was furious, but she didn’t dare to make a move here.
When the evil woman left, it immediately caused a commotion on the righteous path. At the same time, all sorts of ambiguous cries rose and fell one after another.
"Pa!"
Suddenly, there was a loud explosion, and a man was sent flying with a slap. Everyone looked over and only saw a burly man point at that man and yell, “F * ck you! You want to touch me, you see?! Don’t you see that I’m a pure man? Why are you touching my butt?”
Long Chen stood on his own platform, looking at the chaotic scene outside and couldn’t help but shake his head. All he thought about was these perverted methods, the ability to bullsh * t all day long.
“Long San, this time’s first place is mine!”
Now that the Large Competition had yet to begin, everyone took their positions in advance. Huo Wu Fang looked at Long Chen and shouted in a low voice.
Long Chen glanced at Huo Wu Fang and said faintly, "First from the bottom? I’m not interested in that. You can take it.
That’s right, that girl Bi Luo is not bad. Thank you, did you see that? She’s cheering me up from a distance … … "
Huo Wu Fang looked toward Hua Bi Luo and saw that she was standing in the middle of the crowd with a serious smile on her face. In fact, she hadn’t made any moves, but in Huo Wu Fang’s eyes, she was cheering for Long Chen.
"Bitch, there will be a day when I make you wish you were dead!" Huo Wu Fang growled.
"Since it’s your turn, who in this world can compare to you? That’s right, I saw it yesterday. It’s the photo jade from the time when you were destroyed by the Long Chen in the Nine Li Secret Realm.
I rather admire you. How did you manage to survive that? Without even making a sound, I really want to know, what kind of feeling you had back then? " Long Chen curiously asked.
When Huo Wu Fang heard the words’ Long Chen ', he immediately felt a chill run down his spine. The pain that Long Chen had brought him had already sunk deep into his soul.
Which part of him hadn’t said anything back then? He simply couldn’t make a sound. That sort of pain was impossible to describe with words.
“Long San, you’re courting death!” Huo Wu Fang gnashed his teeth.
“I’m right here. What sh * t am I looking for? You sound so illogical!” Long Chen shook his head.
"Phew!"
Huo Wu Fang sucked in a deep breath. He felt as if his lungs were about to explode. When it came to eloquence, he couldn’t even compare to Long Chen.
"Lord Ta Zong has arrived!"
Suddenly, a cold shout rang out and the crowd split apart. A group of people slowly walked in and headed straight for the main judging platform.
The person in front was the Great Tower Lord. Behind the Great Tower Lord was the Great Tower Lord, and other than the two of them, there were also over ten elders.
All of them were as old as tree bark and had deep ditches in their bodies. If a mosquito were to land on their face, they would probably laugh and pinch the mosquito to death.
Long Chen had heard from Fang Chang that in addition to the Tower Lord, there would always be people who would participate in the invigilations outside of the Pill Valley during the Large Competition.
The external affairs of the Pill Valley were similar to those of investigators. Most of them were old alchemists who had retired from the Pill Valley. They probably did not have much lifespan left and could not concoct pills anymore. They might as well send them out to retire and wait for their deaths.
However, these old men had spent their entire lives dealing with medicinal pills. Although they were old and decrepit, their judgement was truly poisonous. Thus, when they came to invigilate, no one could cheat.
The Tower Lord stood in front of the judge’s platform, while the dozen or so old alchemists sat in the back. From the moment they entered the arena, the entire area was completely silent, and the atmosphere immediately became tense.
"The Pill Emperor Competition is held once every hundred years, and is designed to select the most outstanding talents for the Pill Valley. The top ten rankers from past competitions will all be given the opportunity to enter the Pill Valley to study.
But this time was different, because in recent years, alchemy had entered a flourishing stage where many talents had appeared. Only the top five had the right to enter the Pill Valley for this competition.
The top three prizes for the season remained the same, but what were the rewards? Heh heh, to be honest, I don’t know either!
"Pa!"
An exquisite golden box was in the hands of the Tower Lord. He placed it in front of the stage and said, "The top three rewards are here …"
The box opened, revealing three interspatial rings, gold, silver and copper in color, corresponding to three different levels.
"I can tell you all that even I would be tempted by the treasures in those three rings. So, everyone, you can do your best." The Tower Lord encouraged.
After the Tower Lord finished speaking, he gave a signal to the Tower Lord with his eyes. The Tower Lord extended his hand and patted the stone platform:
"The pills you are refining today are here!"
Long Chen hastily lowered his head to look at his stone platform and saw a row of large words appear on it:
"Sea Wave Pill!"
Long Chen’s heart trembled. It turned out to be a Rank 6 Elixir. This was a elixir that a Sea Cleaving Realm expert had consumed for a long time after entering the Sea Cleaving Realm.
Opening the sea meant opening up the Qi Sea, making it bigger and bigger. However, sometimes strength was poor. After entering the Sea Cleaving Realm, the Qi Sea would reach its limit and wouldn’t be able to become bigger by relying on one’s own strength.
The Sea Cleaving Pill, on the other hand, could be used to increase the power of the pill by another level. A powerful cultivator of the Sea Cleaving Realm could use it nine times in his lifetime.
They were to be consumed once during the first to ninth levels of the Qi Sea. Each time they advanced, they would use the power of the medicine to expand their Qi Sea even further.
The effect of the Sea Cleaving Pill was similar to the Bone Sacrifice Pellet, but it was even more severe than the Bone Sacrifice Pellet. Every small boundary could only use one pellet.
"This… Some of the pill refiners were dumbfounded. They were only at the Xiantian realm, so concocting a Rank 6 pill was too much of a strain. Usually, they would only try to concoct a Rank 6 pill when they reached the Sea Cleaving Realm.
More importantly, a Rank 6 elixir was an extremely difficult test for a person’s soul force. To them, this was an impossible task.
Not only were the pill refiners dumbfounded, even the people outside were shocked. Asking the Pill Emperor to refine a Rank 6 pill, was he trying to make things difficult?
Long Chen stole a glance at the others around him. Whether it was Fang Chang or Chai Lie, both had helpless looks on their faces. It was obvious that they didn’t think well of him.
The only girl present, Duan Tian Jiao, had a calm expression. This caused Long Chen to be slightly surprised.
Huo Wu Fang coldly sized up the others. When he saw Long Chen, he stretched out a hand and suddenly remembered something. He immediately retracted his hand.
"Hahaha!"
Huo Wu Fang’s action instantly caused many people outside to burst into laughter. They recalled the scene where Long Chen and Huo Wu Fang had made hand gestures.
It was obvious that Huo Wu Fang wanted to provoke Long Chen just now, but he thought of the horrifying ending from that day. He immediately stopped himself, but some people were still able to see through him.
"As the Pill Emperor, it is indeed a little difficult for you two to refine a tier 6 pill that only a powerhouse of the Pill Sect can refine. Moreover, the difficulty has reached the medium level."
However, don’t forget that this is a ranking competition. There is no rule as to how far you can refine it. As long as you refine it, you have a chance to become the champion, even if the pill you refine is trash. " The Tower Lord reminded.
When the Tower Lord said this, everyone’s eyes lit up: “That’s right, I can’t refine it, and neither can others.”
As long as he worked hard to refine a medicinal pill, regardless of whether it was low or high quality, as long as it was refined, he would have a chance. Others might not even be able to refine a trash pill.
If everyone else were to fail, perhaps a single useless pill could win the championship. Everyone’s hearts had cooled down a moment ago, but because of the words of the Tower Lord, they had come to life again.
Seeing that everyone regained their confidence, the Tower Lord faintly smiled and a huge hourglass appeared in his hand. He turned the hourglass upside down and sand immediately began to flow down slowly.
“The test topic is the ‘Sea Expanse Pill’. It has a time limit of thirty-six hours. The Pill Emperor Tournament finals have officially begun — — Begin,” Lord Ta Ta Te shouted coldly.
Chapter 688 - Flame Fusion
Mobile Read
As the Tower Lord let out a low cry, an expert dressed in white immediately walked forward and placed all kinds of medicinal ingredients on the table one by one. .
It was the same as before. Every single medicinal herb was given in triplicate. This meant that after failing three times consecutively, one would be able to wash up and sleep.
"Huhuhu …"
The sound of the Pill Fire was heard one after another. This time, the pill formula was extremely detailed, and even the sequence of the combinations was complete. There was no need for him to figure it out himself.
This time, the main point was to test everyone’s soul power and to test the strength of their alchemy fire. Previously, it was all a short and quick method of alchemy, just like cooking.
Long Chen stared at the medicinal herbs in front of him in a daze. In truth, this Sea Expanse Pill wasn’t much to Long Chen. It was simply too difficult to compare with Gong Qizhen(Ascending Star).
If he summoned the Earth Fire, Long Chen could take off his shoes and use his feet to refine it, and it would definitely surpass Huo Wu Fang’s.
The key was that Long Chen couldn’t reveal his earth fire. If he did, then Long Chen’s identity would be instantly exposed.
In the entire Eastern Wastelands, only Long Chen seemed to be able to control the earth fire at this age. It was simply too obvious.
But, there was no need for earth fire. There was no way he could defeat the number one ranked Earth Dragon Jin Yan. As he saw Huo Wu Fang’s disdainful expression, Long Chen wanted to smack him with his shoe.
The competition this time around was advantageous to Huo Wu Fang. The strength of his Pill Flame was akin to adding wings to a tiger. The purification of the medicinal herbs had an incomparable advantage.
Seeing Huo Wu Fang brimming with confidence, the stone in Huo Changsheng’s heart was finally put down.
This competition was simply tailor-made for Huo Wu Fang. Although Huo Wu Fang’s soul force wasn’t as strong as Long Chen’s, as long as he could refine the Sea Cleaving Pill, why would he need so much soul force?
Compared to Huo Changsheng, Chai Gao Yang and Fang Mingyuan’s expressions were a bit unnatural. This match was not good for Long Chen, but he was actually unable to display his greatest strength.
Long Chen sighed, “You’re forcing me to act cool. Big bro is actually a low-key person, why would you force me?”
"Phew!"
A flame rose from Long Chen’s palm. The moment the flame appeared, everyone in the audience cried out in alarm.
"This… What kind of flame is this? "
"There’s red, there’s white, there’s green? One two three … … There are actually eighteen colors, what exactly is this? "
Everyone was shocked to discover that in the center of Long Chen’s palm was a mass of multicolored flames, extremely jumbled and disorderly.
“This is like the legendary ‘melting flame’. It combines all kinds of beast fire together and explodes forth with unprecedented power!” Some people couldn’t help but cry out in alarm.
"What a joke! One person can only possess one kind of beast fire. Once one possesses two kinds of beast fire, strong flames will definitely extinguish weak ones. How can one possess so many at the same time?" Someone refuted.
“Then tell me, what are those flames?” Those who were refuted became a bit angry and pointed at the flame in Long Chen’s hand.
That person was immediately rendered speechless. ‘Melting Flame’ was similar to bringing together a wolf, tiger, leopard, chicken, duck, cat and dog. They would definitely kill themselves and not fuse together. However, if it wasn’t for ‘melting Flame’, it wouldn’t be able to explain the flames in Long Chen’s hands.
The Tower Lord slightly smiled and nodded as he said, "This little fellow is quite interesting. To think that even Rong Yan can do it."
Beside Ta Zong, Lord Ta Fu could not help but shake his head and say, “This’ Flame Fusion 'technique is extremely difficult. It is almost impossible. It requires an endless amount of Spiritual Strength and is not worth it.”
The Tower Lord laughed and said: "You are mistaken, this little guy, controlling these flames, is not difficult at all.
With your soul force, it might be difficult to sense. In fact, this little guy has a frightening existence in his body that has suppressed those flames. That’s why they don’t dare to cause trouble! "
Lord Ta Fu couldn’t help but be shocked, to be able to suppress so much beast fire, even the number one earth dragon Jin Yan couldn’t do it, don’t tell me…
"Hence, the little fellow now is truly extraordinary. Hee hee, I have not come from the Eastern Wastelands in vain this time around. Perhaps I can bring a treasure back to that group of old monsters …" The lord of the tower sect chuckled and said.
Of course he knew who the old monster was in the entrance of the pagoda sect, that was a person whose name could shake the entire continent. Thinking about this, he couldn’t help but sigh, no matter what this Long San’s results were today, he would become someone he admired in the future.
However, when he thought of Long San’s personality, he couldn’t help but smile wryly in his heart. If he went to the Pill Valley, the Pill Valley that had been peaceful for countless years, would be bustling with noise and excitement!
As Long Chen summoned out the Flame of Fusion, the entire audience was shocked. Even though the flame in his hand was thousands of feet away, it still gave off a terrifying pressure.
“The power of this Fusion Flame doesn’t seem to be inferior to Huo Wu Fang’s Earth Dragon Gold Flame!” Some people couldn’t help but sigh in amazement. Although they didn’t make a detailed comparison, the fluctuation that their flames gave was almost the same.
Huo Wu Fang couldn’t help but be surprised by Long Chen’s fusion fire. But, a sneer soon emerged on his face.
Even if they were combined with a hundred sheep, their strength would be almost equal to a tiger’s. But what about the truth? What’s the use of a mob?
Long Chen didn’t pay much attention when faced with the amazement or doubts of others. Under the suppression of the earth fire, these flames had to be put to work. Long Chen’s goal had been achieved.
So what if they were a motley crew? Long Chen didn’t need to use all his soul force to command them. As long as he used his strength in one direction, he wouldn’t be able to win against Huo Wu Fang’s Pill Fire. However, the difference wasn’t that great.
As long as the difference in the power of their Pill Fire wasn’t that great, Long Chen wouldn’t feel any pressure as he started to refine the medicinal powder with the fusion flame.
"Ai, compared to earth fire, this is f * cking trash!"
Long Chen was speechless. If he were to use the power of earth fire to refine this kind of medicine, it would not take more than three breaths.
But now, just refining a medicinal herb into powder required a single incense stick of time. No wonder he had to give it three days’ time.
If this was given a day’s time, no one would need to work. There wouldn’t even be enough time to refine the medicinal powder.
Long Chen was still alright. The others would have to spend at least twice as much time as him. Moreover, because the power of the Pill Fire was not strong enough, the essence of the medicinal ingredients would be lost a lot during refinement.
Most of the people here did not expect to produce any high-grade dan beads. As long as they could form one, it would be a blessing in disguise, even if they could make a dan bead.
Everyone present could tell that the first two would definitely be taken by Long Chen and Huo Wu Fang. As for who would be first, that had nothing to do with them.
They only wished that they could concoct a pill. This Sea Expanse Pill was simply too difficult to concoct, and it was also a sixth-grade pill. Now that it was being refined, many people already felt their souls struggling to do so.
After six hours passed, the sky had already darkened. Some people could no longer bear it and felt that their soul force was being consumed too much. They had to recover their soul force as soon as possible.
In the Pill Cultivator Competition, one was allowed to consume pills to recuperate their soul. This was not considered a violation of the rules, and at this moment, everyone’s potential could be seen through.
A dozen or so of them had already turned pale and started to eat the Soul Nurturing Pills to recuperate.
However, there was a portion of them who were still persisting. This meant that they still had a certain amount of soul power, and did not need to rest for the time being.
After ten hours, most of the people had already started to recuperate, and only Fang Chang, wood and fire were still persisting.
When the sun rose from the east, after twelve hours had passed, Chai Lie and the phoenix tree could no longer hold on and began to recuperate.
Currently, only Long Chen, Huo Wu Fang, and Duan Tian Jiao were still persevering on the arena. However, Long Chen and Huo Wu Fang seemed to be at ease while Duan Tian Jiao’s face was slightly pale.
Refining these medicinal materials was actually an extremely time-consuming and exhausting chore that consumed one’s mental energy. Although Duan Tianjiao was slightly unwilling, she still stopped and started to cultivate her soul after eighteen hours.
As for those people from before, they had already recuperated after a few hours and continued refining the medicinal ingredients.
"Phew!"
After Long Chen finished refining the last medicinal ingredient, he couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief. This was too tiring.
The most depressing thing was, if it was just a fire, it could be settled in two hours. He had to use this seemingly powerful fire that could fuse together with the bird.
He was obviously extremely agitated. In order to act cool, he would put on a smile on the surface and pretend to be at ease while lifting a heavy object as if it were light. Long Chen sometimes wondered if he was abusing himself.
Indeed, the old saying was right: if you want to show off your wealth in front of others, you have to suffer behind the scenes. Why must you suffer such hardships?
Long Chen had just finished refining and Huo Wu Fang had just finished as well. Huo Wu Fang also looked in Long Chen’s direction. He couldn’t help but let out a cold snort when he saw that Long Chen was faster than him.
Even now, he still retained less than half of his soul force, but in the face of true alchemy, he had to maintain his peak condition and not be careless in the slightest.
This was because the time needed to refine the pill was simply too long. Half of the thirty-six hours had already passed, and the remaining time was only enough to refine a single batch of pills.
If this furnace failed, then he would have to recuperate his soul and concoct another pill. There simply wouldn’t be enough time.
Thus, although there were three portions of medicinal materials, that was to give everyone a chance to refine the medicinal powder. If they failed, there were still two more chances.
However, he only had one chance to truly refine a pill. Huo Wu Fang had used all of his strength to refine the pill because he had hoped to defeat Long Chen in terms of speed, but Long Chen hadn’t given him a single opportunity. He could only calm his mind and focus on recovering his soul, preparing for the final battle.
Seeing Huo Wu Fang meditating, Long Chen disdainfully thought to himself, “You must be pretending. This father’s soul force is enough to last me until next month.”
To Long Chen’s vast soul power, such consumption was equivalent to a drop in the ocean. If Long Chen wanted to adjust his condition, he could refine medicine and recover at the same time. Not to mention next month, he would be able to last until the next competition.
"Pa!"
Long Chen took out a recliner and an umbrella, then laid back on the chair and began to doze off.
Everyone watching from afar gaped their mouths wide. Wasn’t this way too f * cking cool? Not taking medicine, not meditating, he began to sleep?
The face of the Tower Lord sank. This Long Chen was too presumptuous. Just as he was about to speak, the Tower Lord shook his head and said, “Youngsters need energy. Moreover, he didn’t violate the rules, so let him be!”
The Champion is mine

When a new morning sun appeared, Long Chen opened his eyes. He stood up to stretch his body. Originally, he wanted to act cool, but later on he really fell asleep. Even his saliva dripped all over the ground. .
Noticing the smiling Great Pagoda Sect Master in the distance, no matter how thick Long Chen’s skin was, he could not help but feel somewhat embarrassed. He quickly bowed in apology to the Great Pagoda Sect Master.
Just as he packed up his things, Long Chen discovered that there were only 18 people left. It seemed that a lot of people had been eliminated while he was sleeping.
According to the sequence, the last three herbs refined would be the easiest to fail. Most people would probably die here.
Zhang Xuan had no choice but to leave the most difficult one at the very end. With so many refinements at the very start, it would be much easier for him to succeed.
If he had tried to refine those three medicinal herbs from the very start, it would have taken him less than six hours before the place would be completely empty. The remaining people could be counted on one hand.
At this moment, Long Chen discovered that everyone had a serious expression on their face. They were already slowly pouring the medicinal powder into the pill furnace.
It was obvious that they had already seen through the fact that there was only one chance to refine pills. After they finished refining the medicinal powder, they began to focus all their energy on cultivating their soul in preparation for their final attempt.
Long Chen also discovered that Huo Wu Fang was already looking at him from the side. His posture was that of someone waiting for Long Chen to fight to the end, full of confidence.
Long Chen couldn’t help but be amused. Competing in alchemy with his father? Long Chen really wanted to take off his shoes and compare the pills with his feet.
But this act was too forced, it was an insult to refining pills, and there was a 90 to 90% chance that the lord of the pagoda would chase him out.
Whoosh!
A flame rose from Long Chen’s hand and started to heat up the furnace. As expected, when Long Chen made his move, Huo Wu Fang also ignited his Pill Fire and started to heat up the furnace.
Long Chen ignored him and started to wholeheartedly observe the fire. After all, this Fusion Flame was not Earth Fire, and he was not used to it, so he had to be careful, if the boat capsized, he would pretend to be a fool. He did not want to do such a foolish thing.
This was also Long Chen’s first time concocting the Sea Cleaving Pill. Although there were records of it in the Pill God’s memories, he still had to be careful when concocting it for the first time.
Moreover, if he wanted to take first place, not only would he have to do so on his own, but he would also have to fulfill his own promise. He owed Fang Chang and Chai Huo a great debt and had to help them take the Huo family’s first place.
If Long Chen won the championship, then the Huo family’s prestige would plummet. The Fang family and the Chai family would experience a huge rise in power. As the two went on, the Huo family would be in trouble.
Even though Long Chen was full of confidence, he was still very careful and followed every step according to the rules.
The old fellows present were all on the verge of death, but he didn’t want to expose his true strength in order to avoid trouble.
"Eh, how come this Huo Wu Fang is so familiar with it?"
Long Chen surreptitiously used his divine sense to observe Huo Wu Fang’s side and discovered that the method Huo Wu Fang used to refine the pill wasn’t strange at all. Many areas where the flames turned were actually quite natural.
“Holy shit, this is cheating. This bastard has refined the Sea Expanse Pill before, and he has refined it more than once. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have such a proficient technique!”
Long Chen cursed in his heart. The Huo family must have cheated. They must have known about the exam and trained in advance. I say, this bastard, how could he be so confident today?
Not only did Long Chen notice it, but even Fang Mingyuan and Chai Gao Yang’s expressions changed, their eyes full of anger.
As for Huo Changsheng, he watched on calmly, pretending not to see the furious stares directed at him.
The Tower Lord, who was sitting on the main judging platform, continued to look at them calmly. Beside him, Lord Ta Fu stared at Huo Wu Fang and softly said, "This is a bit unfair."
"Fair? Is there such a thing in this world? " The lord of the tower sect suddenly looked at Lord Ta Fu and said meaningfully.
"This …" Lord Ta Fu was stunned by the question.
"This world has never been fair. Fairness is just a slogan of the weak. In the world of the strong, fairness is just a joke.
No one paid attention to the cries of the weak. The strong never cared about fairness. A big fish eats small fish, a small fish eats small shrimps. Who would care about the shrieks of a small fish?
In the cultivation world, the strong preyed on the weak. As food, one should not call this food fair. Instead, one should think about how to improve oneself and eat others.
When the weak became the strong, he would also go and eat others, similarly ignoring the fairness of others’ words.
"However, the injustice in our eyes is a dynamic balance in the nether days. It goes on and on and on. Therefore, there is no need to care about these. This is the Heavenly Dao …" Ta Zong casually replied.
When Lord Ta Fu heard these words, his heart shivered. He hurriedly bowed to Lord Ta Zong and said, "Many thanks to senior for your guidance."
"I am just an old man. What pointers are there to talk about? I just want to quietly watch the show. I also want to see how this Long San is going to play!" Ta Zong laughed.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, six hours had passed. The entire area was in complete silence, with only the Pill Fire burning non-stop in the air.
Bang.
With a light sound, everyone in the crowd turned to look at the voice.
"Heavens, Huo Wu Fang is the first to seal the furnace!"
A furnace seal represented the most important step in concocting pills; success or failure depended on one’s success or failure. In general, the furnace seal was 90% complete, and only the last step was needed.
Bang.
Long Chen had also finished sealing the furnace, but in his heart, Long Chen was very unhappy. This idiot cheated. The idiot from the Huo Family was much stronger.
As Long Chen sealed the furnace, the outside world also let out a cry of surprise. Because the two of them were about the same speed, they were only about the same speed.
Whoosh!
Huo Wu Fang revolved the Earth Dragon Gold Flame with all his might. He only saw a golden flame wrap around the entire pill furnace, causing space to distort.
The last step of the Sea Cleaving Pill required an extremely strong flame. The stronger the flame, the better the quality of the Sea Cleaving Pill would be. This was extremely important.
"Buzz!"
Long Chen’s fused flames started to unleash their full strength. Colourful flames danced in the air and enveloped the entire pill furnace. At the same time, a terrifying pressure slowly rose.
"Heavens! This Long San is crazy! He actually used his soul force to trigger the Pill Fire so early in the morning!" someone cried out in alarm.
One had to know that refining the Sea Expanse Pill was a long battle, and the consumption of soul force was enormous. Normally, one’s soul force would be left at the pill before it was formed, needing to constantly convert firepower.
He had just sealed the furnace and used his soul force to ignite the Pill Flame. Wasn’t he afraid that his soul force would dry up halfway through the refinement? Even if he heard that Long Chen’s soul force was extremely powerful, he shouldn’t have done this, right?
"Long San was forced to do so. In terms of power, his fusion flames are actually inferior to Earth Dragon Jinyan’s, and the requirements for fire within the Sea Expanse Heart Pill are extremely high.
If Long San wants to win against Huo Wu Fang, he must use all his strength to increase the firepower. However, this kind of crazy activation is really hard for people to understand. " An old, experienced dan-maker(pill refiner) in the outside world sighed.
With this crazy input, an ordinary Pill Emperor wouldn’t even be able to last an hour and his soul force would be depleted.
And the time needed to form the Sea Expanse Pill was at least six hours. With this sort of soul force, continuing it for six hours was simply outrageous.
Especially during the crucial moments of pill formation, the Pill Fire needed to constantly change in order to lock onto the energy within the pill. Only then would the consumption of soul power be the most terrifying.
According to everyone’s understanding of Long Chen, although Long Chen liked to act cool, his strength was still admirable.
Logically speaking, Long Chen would not do those sort of stupid things that pretend to be a fool. However, his current actions were simply following the same path as before. Thus, that old man who had refined most of his life’s medicinal pills kept on saying that he did not understand.
Bang.
Bang.
Bang.
At this time, the others also sealed their furnaces. However, two people dejectedly left. Because they were too nervous, they weren’t able to control the pressure. In the end, they failed during the process of fusing with each other.
Time unceasingly flowed on. Even those in the outside world couldn’t help but feel nervous. The champion of the Hundred Year Pill Emperor Competition was about to appear.
Two hours … Four hours … Six hours …
"Plop!"
An expert suddenly collapsed onto the stage in a soft manner. He had exhausted his soul energy, so he had fallen into a coma.
"Plop!"
Another person fell. They were all people with extremely strong willpower. They had clenched their teeth to persevere, but sometimes they were too weak, and in the end, they lost consciousness.
The spectators couldn’t help but sigh. In the outside world, these people were all supreme powerhouses of the Pill Emperor Hall. Yet here, despite bitterly enduring, they were still eliminated.
As time passed, the sky grew dark, and then it began to slowly brighten. In another two hours, it would be the 36th hour.
Bang!
Suddenly, there was a muffled sound. Someone had started the furnace. Everyone was shocked and looked into that person’s furnace. All of them couldn’t help but let out a sigh.
There was not a single pill inside the pill furnace, only a pile of paste. It was obvious that in the later stages of the pill furnace, the person’s soul power was insufficient to form the core.
Bang.
Another person started the furnace. The person who started it was Fang Chang, but the people outside let out a surprised cry. Within the pile of dregs in the furnace, there was actually a shaped pill.
Although there was no lustre and the medicinal fragrance was not strong, at most it could be considered a low quality pill, but this was not bad. At least it was a complete pill.
As Fang Chang opened the furnace, the others also followed suit. In the end, all of them had a pot of dregs, but there were also some that took shape.
But soon, he couldn’t smile anymore because there were three other people who had also refined mid-tier pills. If that was the case, then he would have to use his apparatus to check the quantity of the pills to determine the winner or loser.
“Oh my god, it’s a Superior Grade Sea Cleaving Pill!”
Duan Ling Tian opened the furnace and was instantly shocked by everyone. She actually refined a high-grade Skill-Reaching Heart Pill with gorgeous markings.
"Yeah!"
Duan Tian Jiao couldn’t help but exclaim in joy. She was really too happy, but after she finished cheering, her expression immediately changed. This was a competition ground, and she had violated the rules.
“No worries. The competition is almost over. You can speak now as long as you don’t maliciously affect others refining pills.” The lord of the pagoda’s warm smile didn’t punish Duan Tian Jiao, causing her to feel extremely grateful.
“Hahahaha, you can speak. That’s good. Long San, I said that the champion is mine!” Huo Wu Fang suddenly laughed heartily.
The Nine Revolutions Blood Soul Ascension Technique (from the beginning of the explosion)

"Did you not take any medicine, or did you take too many medicine and start babbling nonsense? I really want to know, where did your confidence come from?" Long Chen said faintly. [Previous Chapter] [Table of Contents] [Next Chapter] The most comprehensive view! Fastest novel updates
Long Chen’s Spiritual Sense had been observing Huo Wu Fang’s side. Although the Pill Fire blocked Long Chen’s Spiritual Sense detection and prevented him from seeing what was happening inside the pill furnace, Long Chen could still feel that Huo Wu Fang’s pill furnace could produce three brilliant pills at most. That was already the limit.
Long Chen couldn’t help but snort in disdain. Although he hadn’t reached the final step of the Pill Fusion, he was confident that his pills would definitely reach the level of five or six pills.
Thus, when Long Chen saw Huo Wu Fang laughing so maniacally, he felt that it was very strange. Just where did this fellow’s confidence come from?
"Long Chen, I admit that my soul power is inferior to yours. In terms of alchemy skills, you must at least surpass me. Even Dan Yan, you are barely able to stand on my side with your soul power."
Originally, it was hard to say who would win in a situation like this. However, you underestimate me so much that I’ll reveal a pill technique that you guys have never seen before! Watch out, you country bumpkin. “Nine Revolutions Blood Soul Ascension Technique!”
As Huo Wu Fang shouted out, everyone was shocked to discover that Huo Wu Fang’s eyes had turned a deep crimson. The space between his eyebrows had actually split open, and a line of blood slowly flowed out.
The drop of blood was like a living bug. It crawled between Huo Wu Fang’s eyebrows and on his forehead, creating an extremely strange pattern.
"Holy sh * t, how can we fight like this?"
Long Chen was shocked. He didn’t think that Huo Wu Fang would know this technique. The Nine Revolutions Blood Soul Ascension technique used the consumption of one’s life and blood to forcefully improve the pill’s quality.
In the outside world, it had almost disappeared. The main reason was because of this technique. The alchemist world did not advocate it. This was because the soul injury caused by this technique was permanent and could not be healed.
"So ruthless!"
In the distance, Fang Mingyuan and Chai Gao Yang’s hearts could not help but beat wildly. Looking at the distant Huo Changsheng, they sighed inwardly.
Although they did not know about this secret technique, they had heard about it before. They never would have thought that the Huo family was this ruthless. Doing this was no different from giving up Huo Wu Fang’s life.
"Huo Wu Fang, after you cast the Nine Revolutions Blood Soul Ascension Technique, your life can be considered as ruined. Your soul power has stagnated and will never reach the Sea Cleaving Realm," Long Chen said faintly.
“Hahaha, Long San said that you’re a country bumpkin, and you’re a country bumpkin. Not only will I win the championship, I’ll even be unharmed!” Huo Wu Fang sneered.
Following the appearance of the blood-colored mark on his forehead, everyone could feel a strange power surging within his pill furnace. The pill furnace began to tremble uncontrollably.
Just at this moment, Huo Wu Fang’s pill flames soared. Golden flames enveloped his entire body as the space warped. Everyone could see the energy of heaven and earth crazily surging towards his pill furnace.
Long Chen’s expression finally changed. He could feel that a pill was rapidly circulating inside Huo Wu Fang’s pill furnace, absorbing the energy at a crazy rate.
He had underestimated Huo Wu Fang, but he hadn’t expected that Huo Wu Fang would have such a trick up his sleeve. Moreover, he had sensed that Huo Wu Fang didn’t use his own soul power when he used the Nine Revolving Blood Soul Ascension Spell; this was a very strange phenomenon, could it be …
"Boom!"
Suddenly, with an explosive sound, the golden flames that filled the sky dispersed, revealing a proud smile on Huo Wu Fang’s face.
"Pa!"
As the pill furnace was opened, a glow could be seen radiating from within. Even in the daytime, the glow of the pill could be seen everywhere.
"Oh heavens, the Nine Magnificence Pellet!"
The crowd cried out in alarm. It was a top-quality Rainbow Pellet! At that moment, everyone’s hearts were all filled with shock.
Long Chen didn’t look at the Nine Magnificence Pellet. He looked at Huo Wu Fang and suddenly said, “No wonder you dare to use the Nine Revolutions Blood Soul Ascension technique. The blood is yours, but your soul power is other people’s. Vicious!”
Long Chen’s words startled everyone. If what Long Chen said was true, then wouldn’t Huo Wu Fang have two souls within his body? One of them had been taken as a sacrifice.
“Long San, there’s no point in speaking any further. I’m not breaking the rules. Now, if I say that the first place belongs to me, do you believe me? Hahahaha!” Huo Wu Fang laughed heartily.
Both Flame and Fang Chang couldn’t help but sigh. They already had no hope for Long Chen. Originally, Huo Wu Fang and Long Chen were on par with each other, but Huo Wu Fang’s Nine Transformation Blood Soul Ascension Technique had already determined the outcome.
"Lord Ta Zong, I would like to ask, what are the criteria for our ranking?" Long Chen ignored Huo Wu Fang as he spoke to the Tower Lord.
"The medicinal effect of the medicinal pill …" said Lord Ta Zong.
A smile suddenly surfaced on Long Chen’s face as he said, “Hehe, many thanks to Lord Ta Zong. In that case, I still have a chance!”
"Opportunity? “Keep dreaming, you’re already starting to condense the pill, it’s almost formed, what are you going to use to win against me?” Huo Wu Fang disdainfully said.
He did not believe that Long Chen knew the Nine Revolving Blood Soul Ascension Technique, and even if he knew the Nine Revolving Blood Soul Ascension Technique, he would not dare to use it against himself. If he used it, even if he won the championship, his soul power would forever be stagnant, and the Pill Valley would not want a cripple.
"Crack crack crack crack."
Suddenly, a series of light sounds were emitted from Long Chen’s pill furnace. The sounds were very soft, but everyone was able to hear them clearly from where the needle had landed on the stage.
"What?! He actually crushed the pill that is about to take shape?!"
The crowd was shocked. What was Long Chen planning to do? Wasn’t this equivalent to giving up on himself? Did he not even want to be in second place anymore?
The elder’s eyes narrowed, “He wants to…”
Looking at Long Chen’s pill furnace, the Tower Lord nodded his head and praised, “It’s great to be young, daring to do anything, and never need to think twice before doing anything.”
"Boom!"
"Boom ~ ~ ~" Suddenly, there was an explosion. The sky trembled and the earth trembled. In the sky, an enormous vortex with a circumference of several hundred miles appeared and covered the entire arena.
"This… This … “Impossible?” Looking at the huge whirlpool, everyone’s eyeballs nearly popped out of their sockets.
“How can there be such terrifying soul power in this world?” At this moment, even the usually calm and collected Great Tower Faction’s expression finally changed.
That huge whirlpool was condensed from Long Chen’s soul power. The area it covered was too frightening. Everyone present was shocked.
Normally, even if a Pill Emperor were to use his soul power, he would be at his limit if he was able to condense over ten feet of energy.
Huo Wu Fang had previously used the Nine Transformation Soul Ascension Technique, so the range of his soul force hadn’t been more than 1000 feet. But now, Long Chen’s entire area was covered with soul force. Everyone was shocked.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, Long Chen gave a loud shout and his entire body was enveloped in flames. A column of fire with a diameter of 100 feet shot up into the sky and into the clouds. A terrifying wave of fire roasted the sky.
A terrifying pressure gushed out like a stormy sea. The surrounding participating experts were all unable to resist the terrifying heat wave as they all explosively retreated.
Fortunately, after they had successfully concocted the pellets, there were already people who came forward to retrieve the pellets to prevent cheating. Otherwise, it would have been very easy for things to go awry in such chaos.
"Heavens, is he even human?" Everyone opened their mouths wide and looked at the huge pillar of fire. This scene was simply too shocking.
Only the Tower Lord didn’t have any strange expression when looking at the fire pillar. His originally blurry eyes were now radiating a bright light, as if he could pierce through space.
"As expected …" A smile surfaced on the face of the Tower Lord, and his old blurry eyes returned.
The reason why Long Chen had ignited the fire pillar was to conceal his movements. This was because that bastard Huo Wu Fang had used the Nine Revolutions Blood Soul Ascension Spell. He had completely sacrificed his soul in exchange for a Nine Magnificence Pill.
Now, if he wanted to win, he could only rely on earthfire, and earthfire could not be exposed, he could only use the fire pillar as a cover.
Long Chen minced the pill that was about to take shape, and then secretly summoned his Earth Fire and began to frantically refine it.
“Crap, it’s almost time!” Someone cried out in alarm. He discovered that there wasn’t much sand left in the hourglass.
"Boom!"
An explosive sound shook the world, and the pillar of fire instantly exploded, revealing Long Chen’s figure. At this moment, Long Chen’s face looked slightly tired as he held the pill furnace tightly with his large hand.
"Did he fail?"
Everyone was shocked because they discovered that Long Chen’s pill furnace was covered with cracks like a spider web. It was obvious that the pill furnace could not withstand the pressure and almost exploded into pieces.
The pill furnace had to be sealed at the end of the pill refining process. If there was an inner qi leaking out, then the pill furnace would be wasted.
“Time’s up.”
As the last grain of sand fell, the voice of the timer rang throughout the arena.
“Hahaha, Long San, you’ve created such a big commotion. In the end, it’s just a monkey show!” Huo Wu Fang laughed heartily.
"Crack!"
Suddenly, a piece of the pill furnace fell from Long Chen’s hand. The pill furnace was like broken porcelain, shattering bit by bit.
"Hahaha, Long San, the champion is …" "What?"
As Huo Wu Fang laughed, he suddenly looked as if someone had grabbed onto his neck, shock and shock written all over his face.
The pill furnace shattered, revealing a single object within. It was a pill, and it did not have any patterns, only a faint glow. According to the grade of the pill, it should only be considered a high-grade pill.
But, when they saw that pellet, other than the lord of the Tower Faction, everyone else was shocked. The square head and Chai Lie were even more so filled with elation.
"Huge… "A giant pellet?"
The pill had a very ordinary luster, but this one was the size of a baby’s fist. It was an extremely rare pill, called a giant core.
For many alchemist experts, they would never be able to refine such a huge pill in their entire lifetime. This was because refining such a huge pellet consumed tens of times the amount of alchemy fire and soul energy required, and the failure rate was over a hundred times greater than that of ordinary pellets.
Therefore, many people had heard of this giant pellet before. However, they had never seen it before, much less seen it with their own eyes.
The giant pellet contained the essence of all nine pellets and focused them all into one pellet. However, the power of one pellet was more than ten times stronger than the other nine pellets.
As for the huge pellet in Long Chen’s hand, not only did it become a pellet, but it also reached the Superior Grade. Then, its medicinal effects would be comparable to two Nine Magnificence Pellets.
“Bastard, this is impossible! Long San, you’ve definitely cheated!” Huo Wu Fang roared angrily, his face twisting as he charged towards Long Chen.
