Reaching the pinnacle from Doupo

Chapter 423: The Peering Person, Backhand

The time required to refine high-level elixirs is generally not too short, let alone a furnace of three elixirs of the "Six Nine Six" level.

Even for Lin Yuan, this kind of refining basically takes nine days as a cycle.

In the valley, three ice-blue fire cauldrons were suspended in the air. The flames in the cauldrons were burning fiercely, constantly tempering the medicinal materials inside. The hot breath spread out from the cauldrons, making the entire valley dry.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged on the stone platform, forming seals with his hands. The power of his soul surged out like a tide, carefully controlling the temperature of each flame.

The master's calm demeanor and smooth refining techniques made this refining process, which should have been tedious and boring, full of a pleasing and unique beauty...

Medusa sat among the flowers, Zi Yan and Xiao Cai sat beside her, and the three of them watched Lin Yuan's medicine refining process quietly.

Zi Yan and Xiao Cai, who had seen this kind of medicine refining many times, did not have much interest in it. Soon, one of them (Xiao Cai) lay on Medusa's legs, and the other (Xiao Zi Yan) leaned on Medusa's shoulder, slowly closed their eyes and fell asleep.

But Medusa, who had not seen Lin Yuan making medicine for a long time, watched with great interest and was involuntarily immersed in it.

She stared at Lin Yuan. His focused expression and smooth technique made her eyes sparkle - he is worthy of being the husband I have chosen!
Smiling slightly, she couldn't help but recall the little things when they first met and the ups and downs they had experienced together.

Time, in this quiet atmosphere, slowly passes...

a few days later.

The flame in the cauldron became hotter and hotter, and the medicinal materials gradually merged under the tempering of the flame, emitting waves of enticing elixir fragrance, which was refreshing.

At this moment, an urgent message suddenly came from the Skynet...

The moment she received the message, Medusa, who had been staring at Lin Yuan refining the elixir, suddenly became stern, and a murderous aura quickly gathered in her charming eyes.

Just as his fierce murderous intent was about to be unleashed, follow-up information arrived from the Sky Network.

After receiving the message, Medusa narrowed her eyes slightly and clenched her hands tightly, forcibly suppressing the murderous aura that was about to penetrate her body. She quickly calmed down her fluctuating emotions and calmed down Zi Yan and Xiao Cai who were awakened.

She took a deep look at Lin Yuan, who looked calm, and her eyes swept across the void, with a flash of cold light passing by.

Uninvited guest, are you there?

Medusa let out a light breath and slowly closed her eyes. While quietly gathering her strength, she discussed the battle plan with everyone in the "group chat" of the Sky Network.

Zi Yan and Xiao Cai woke up and immersed themselves in the Sky Network...
-
On the other side, in the depths of the void where Medusa's eyes passed, a pair of ferocious purple eyes were surrounded by purple tones, and their gaze directly penetrated the void, staring at the three fire tripods in the valley.

"The pill has not yet been fully formed, but it already has such a fragrant scent and energy!"

The purple-eyed man narrowed his eyes slightly, and a greedy murmur sounded in the depths of the void: "If these three pills can be successfully refined, the middle one should be able to help me make further progress, and the other two can just be used by Huang'er and Jun'er."

"Alchemist boy, do your best. This Saint is here to protect you personally! As for the reward for protecting you, it will be those three pills, hehe..."

After saying this, his gaze shifted slightly and fell on the three women who seemed to be blind beside the stone platform.

After staring for a moment, the burning look in his eyes became more intense.

Although it is impossible to see through it, those three women may have extremely good magical beast bloodlines, especially the purple-haired girl, who has a vaguely strange feeling about her.

If I could obtain their souls, perhaps it would lay an excellent foundation for my grandchildren who would perform the rituals later.

"Let's set up a blockade barrier first, to prevent them from running away or summoning strong men... This time, I will catch them all in one fell swoop!" After making up his mind, a fierce light flashed in Zi's eyes. He moved his body and left the space barrier set up by Lin Yuan and others.

When it passed through the barrier, its body was enveloped by a nimble purple light, and it passed through the barrier silently and without any hindrance.

Soon, a secret and solid barrier was formed outside the barrier set up by Lin Yuan...
-
In the deep valley, Lin Yuan has been immersed in alchemy for eight days.

When the first ray of morning light of the ninth day fell from the vast sky, a low and loud noise suddenly came from between heaven and earth, and several extremely strong energy fluctuations suddenly spread out with the stone platform in the center of the valley as the center.

Immediately, the clouds in the sky condensed like lightning, and thunder quickly shuttled through the clouds like a silver snake.

On the bluestone platform, Lin Yuan, who had been sitting cross-legged like a stone sculpture for several days, opened his lightly closed eyes and slowly stood up.

Thunder roared, and the strong light brought by the lightning that flashed across the sky shone on Lin Yuan's calm face, revealing an extraordinary and unparalleled charm.

His gaze swept across the sky and fell on the fire cauldron in front of him. A meaningful smile flashed in his eyes.

"The Thunder Tribulation Pill is done!"

In the fire cauldron, a faint light was diffused. A fist-sized pill, as deep and dark as the abyss, was quietly suspended. Around the pill, dark thunder continued to seep out and bursts of rumbling sounds were heard.

At this moment, a mysterious energy rose from the pitch-black pill and spread towards the sky, and thunderclouds followed.

One color, one color, and another color...

In less than a minute, a nine-colored thundercloud and two seven-colored thunderclouds appeared in the sky.

"Two six-color pills, each improving one color... the effect is acceptable!"

Looking at the three thunderclouds in the sky, Lin Yuan nodded slightly: "Sure enough, the blood spirit technique created by Hunxuzi is very compatible with the spirit control array that I have optimized, and is very suitable for the spirit raising method! However, there is still some room for improvement in the cooperation of the three."

While he was thinking, three thunderclouds in the sky had gathered together, and then nine-colored lightning struck towards the center of the valley with the force of heavenly punishment...

Seeing this scene, Lin Yuan just smiled and didn't care.

"Dan Lei..."

With a casual wave of his hand, Tian Kui flew out of the ring, transformed into a ray of purple light and rushed towards the nine-colored thunder. After dispersing it, it flew straight into the nine-colored thundercloud.

There was a sudden rumble of thunder in the sky, and countless nine-colored thunders violently bombarded the Sky Puppet in the clouds.

The earth-shaking thunder lasted for more than ten minutes before gradually fading away. Finally, pure thunder power poured down from the thunderclouds and fell into the three pills in the fire cauldron.

The next moment, accompanied by three crisp sounds like the collision of metal and stone, three pills forced their way through the lids of the cauldrons, flew out of the three fire cauldrons, and escaped.

Lin Yuan waved his sleeves lightly, and an invisible gust of wind flew out, sweeping back the two eighth-grade, seven-color pills. Only the eighth-grade, nine-color thunder pill, with its incomparably vast energy, forcibly broke through the gust of wind and turned into a ray of light that swept towards the sky.

At the moment when it was about to hit the space barrier, ripples like water waves suddenly appeared in front of the dim light.

At the same time, a greedy voice that was determined to get something suddenly echoed in the sky: "Good pill, little guy, you deserve my protection! I will gladly accept this pill as a reward, hehe..."

Before he finished his words, a large hand reached out from the ripples in space without any warning and accurately grasped the faint light in its hand.

Then, a sturdy figure surrounded by purple light stepped out from the ripples.

As soon as this figure appeared, a pressure that seemed to come from the ancient times, carrying a fierce dragon's might, spread out in all directions. Under this terrifying pressure, the originally calm space was shaking, as if it could collapse completely at any time.

And in the center of the valley below, three beams of light flashed and flew straight to Lin Yuan on the bluestone platform.

Zi Yan and Medusa protected Lin Yuan on his left and right; Xiao Cai turned into a tiny stream of colorful light and circled around Lin Yuan's right wrist.

Faced with such a terrifying and powerful enemy, they made their choice without hesitation.

"The breath of the wilderness and beasts intertwined, the pressure of the ancient dragon clan... This kind of breath, the Dragon Soul Barbarians? There are still semi-saint strongmen in the barbarians?" Looking at the burly middle-aged man standing in the sky, Lin Yuan's eyes condensed slightly, and he confirmed in a deep voice.

During these days, he has done some research on the barbarians, including the main barbarian tribes, from fighters to fighter masters.

However, the barbarian semi-saint in front of him had never even heard of him...

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, the Barbarian Semi-Saint's gaze shifted from the Thunder Tribulation Pill to Lin Yuan below, and said calmly: "Young man, you have quite a good insight! In this case, don't resist in vain, just follow me back and be my guest for a hundred years!"

At this point, a hint of passion appeared in his eyes - the pill in his hand alone was enough to surpass his more than ten years of hard training.

With the help of this boy's alchemy skills, reviving the declining barbarians is no longer a fantasy.

When his gaze fell on Zi Yan and Medusa, the fiery look in his eyes was almost impossible to suppress - there was no way he would make a mistake, these were the Taixu Ancient Dragon and the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python.

Moreover, the bloodline of this Taixu ancient dragon is extremely noble, far superior to the ancient dragon soul that has been passed down for a long time in his body.

If I could extract her soul and place it into my own body, I would definitely become a true fighting saint.

This was the blessing of the ancestral spirits, allowing the barbarian tribe to secretly worship the barbarian dragon. At the darkest moment when the barbarians were declining, they encountered such an unimaginable opportunity - capturing a top alchemist and a top magic beast at the same time, which was the chance for the barbarians to revive.

Feeling Manlong's gaze, Zi Yan's face darkened slightly. This guy not only had the aura of an ancient dragon's soul in his body, but his eyes were even more unpleasant.

"Are you inviting me to be your guest?" Lin Yuan took a step forward, his voice full of amusement, "Is it the barbarian etiquette to take the guest's precious elixir without asking for permission?"

Upon hearing this, Manlong smiled faintly, but his voice was extremely cold and domineering.

"Etiquette? Ha, my barbarian tribe has only one principle: the strong are respected! Since my strength is far greater than yours, let alone your elixir, even your woman, your strange fire, and even your life, all belong to me."

"You may have some background, but I have made up my mind. I will never let you leave today."

"Don't be optimistic. This Saint has completely sealed off this place. The Space Jade Slip cannot be used. You can't escape or ask for help! Don't waste time on meaningless resistance!"

"Let's go, follow me back! After you have served me for a hundred years, I will let you go."

Having said that, he casually tossed the Thunder Tribulation Pill in his hand, revealing his calm and proud demeanor. At the same time, a hint of cunning and coldness flashed in his eyes.

How is it possible to let this kid go?

The opportunity to capture this pure-blooded Taixu ancient dragon... must not be missed, and this matter... must not be exposed. There is only one result after this guy uses it - death!

"Jiejiejie——"

Lin Yuan smiled indifferently and said sarcastically, "You are just a mid-level half-saint, and you dare to say such a thing? You are a barbarian who only sees the world from a narrow perspective. Pay for your arrogance with your life! It just so happens that I can use your worthless life."

At this point, a hint of excitement flashed in the depths of his deep eyes - the half-saint of the barbarian, it seems that he can get the most superior and complete barbarian inheritance!

"Youngster, you are so arrogant!!!"

Being mocked by a Dou Zun junior, the Barbarian Dragon, who had not been disobeyed for decades... instantly became furious. A cold murderous aura surged out with a loud shout, and as the vast aura surged, the space around him collapsed inch by inch.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan sneered disdainfully, glanced at the Thunder Tribulation Pill that Manlong was holding tightly, and a strange smile appeared on his face.

"Since you like this medicine, I'll give it to you! The prerequisite is that you are alive to enjoy it..."

Before he finished speaking, he snapped his fingers lightly, and a mysterious wave spread out, triggering the backup plan that had already been set up in this Thunder Tribulation Pill.

If Lin Yuan had known that the enemy was lurking, how could he not leave a backup plan and allow the elixir he had painstakingly refined to be taken away?
"Click——"

Along with a slight sound from the unknown, the stable energy structure of the Thunder Tribulation Pill completely collapsed in an instant.

Feeling the extremely violent energy in his hand, Manlong didn't even have time to doubt himself. The arrogance and rage on his face disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by extreme fear that he had never felt before.

Without any hesitation, he quickly let go of the pill in his hand, and quickly fled into the distance.

However, the gift that was tempted by greed wanted to escape at this moment...it was too late!
The precious treasure that could save him decades of hard work, the Thunder Tribulation Pill, exploded completely in an instant under the incredulous look of Manlong.

The vast and violent energy surged out and transformed into a pitch-black thunder dragon, which swallowed up the barbarian dragon that wanted to escape.

"boom--"

Then, the pitch-black thunder dragon completely collapsed and exploded, emitting a deafening roar that shook the entire world.

At the same time, the energy that exploded also turned into a terrifying energy storm.

The energy storm swept in all directions, and wherever it passed, the space completely collapsed and turned into a complete void; the aftermath spread out, rocks collapsed, trees turned into dust, and the entire valley seemed to have experienced a doomsday catastrophe.

The explosion of several ninth-grade precious pills could stop Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun for a moment; the energy of the complete explosion of that eighth-grade nine-color pill...
