Chapter 661 The Art of Human Refinement
After Dan Yu described the grand blueprint of the Domain Guardian Project to Lan Hong and Xiao Yan, he asked, "What do you two think? Would you like to join this project?"

Such a long-term plan to deal with the extraterrestrial demons was very much to Xiao Yan's liking.

Just as Xiao Yan was about to agree, Lan Hong pressed down on his shoulder.

"senior?"

"Chief Danyu, Chief Gaoyuan, this matter is of great importance, and we cannot make a decision immediately. Please give us some time to consider it."

"That's natural. I was just too impatient. You two can continue participating in the competition. After the competition, we can discuss the Domain Guardian Project in detail."

Thus, Lan Hong and Xiao Yan left the border and found a place to begin refining pills.

On Danyu's side, Gaoyuan looked at Danyu and asked, "Danyu, this is not the same as what you promised me."

"Gaoyuan, why are you in such a hurry? It's normal for them to think it over. If they agree right away, it would be a sign of being brainless."

I assure you, they will definitely agree to join our plan after the Banten meeting.

"It better be so!"

Xiao Yan quickly refined the pill; one high-grade divine pill was enough to advance his level.

"Senior didn't refine any pills?"

"I'm not a pharmacist by profession. I only came here to check on the situation of this Tianling Continent. You can continue with the competition. Don't worry about me."

I think you're probably asking why you were prevented from agreeing to join the Domain Guardian Project with Dan Yu.

"Yes, once this plan is completed, it can indeed protect the vast world and lower planes from the harm of extraterrestrial demons."

"Xiao Yan, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you've been through so much, how can you still be so naive?"

Indeed, if this Domain Guardian Project succeeds, it will be able to protect the vast world and lower planes from the invasion of extraterrestrial demons.

However, this plan is so complex, involving multiple forces, have you calculated what the probability of success is?
You've studied math, right? Didn't your teacher tell you that events with a small probability are approximately zero?

"Does Senior mean that this Domain Guardian Project will not succeed?"

"Otherwise what? Alchemists, formation masters, battle formation masters, special materials, the essence blood of the True Dragon and True Phoenix races, the status of the ancient gods—with so many problems before us, success? Are you kidding me?"
If it succeeds, it can only mean one thing: a world war has already been fought within the Great Thousand Worlds without the intervention of extraterrestrial demons.

Furthermore, haven't you noticed? This so-called Domain Guardian Project is essentially a challenge launched by the Dan God Clan against the Ancient God Clan and the Myriad Spirits God Clan regarding leadership of the Great Thousand Worlds.

"It's so complicated."

"Now that you are the Lord of the Endless Fire Domain, you must think twice before you act. Discuss things with Xiao Xuan, Gu Yuan, and Long Yuan, and don't act impulsively."

"Thank you for your guidance, senior. I will remember it."

"Alright, don't put on that act in front of me. It's almost time, let's go."

Lan Hong and Xiao Yan then headed to the center of the Tianling Continent, where many people had already gathered.

Danyu and Gaoyuan will also be here to host the next round of matches.

Xiao Yan handed over the pills he had refined, and naturally, he advanced without a doubt.

Looking at the other eight young alchemists from the Dou Qi Continent, only two advanced: one male and one female. The male was named Yao Tu, and the female was named Yao Ling; both were members of the Yao Clan.

Both of them performed exceptionally well, barely managing to refine a high-grade Xuan Dan.

Lan Hong also noticed Liu Xuan, who also advanced smoothly.

As time ran out, all those who had advanced appeared on the stage. "Congratulations on advancing! The next round will be very difficult, so please be prepared."

As Lan Hong predicted, the next competition was about the art of refining people.

To complete human refining while ensuring the person's survival requires extremely strong control and the most sophisticated refining techniques.

When this test question was released, more than half of the candidates who advanced gave up.

They had never been exposed to the art of human refining before, so they had no idea where to begin.

Of the remaining people, apart from Xiao Yan and a few others, most were members of the Dan Shen Clan and the Ancient Myriad Grasslands.

This inevitably disappointed Dan Yu and Gao Yuan, since one of the more important purposes of this Wan Dan Conference was to select talent for the Domain Guard Project.

Next, it was naturally Xiao Yan's turn to perform. The traditional art of refining people involves refining the human body.

However, Xiao Yan used an unconventional method of refining people, turning pills into human beings. It wasn't that the pills took form, but that he truly refined the pills into human beings.

Seeing Xiao Yan's display of fusing different flames and his unique and skillful refining techniques, Dan Yu and Gao Yuan both focused their attention on Xiao Yan.

They were well aware of Xiao Yan's strength as a Heavenly Supreme, but they truly had no idea the extent of his alchemy skills.

Judging from Xiao Yan's performance at this moment, his alchemy skills are also top-notch, perhaps even no weaker than the two of them.

Both of them were puzzled as to how Xiao Yan could maintain such a high level of alchemy skills while possessing immense strength.

Ultimately, they could only attribute this to the strange fire that Xiao Yan had fused with.

In fact, the key is Xiao Yan himself. They would rather attribute the key to the fusion of different flames used by Xiao Yan than acknowledge his talent and hard work.

This is also a common mentality: when people are unwilling to admit something, they will look for a seemingly reasonable excuse.

However, while Lan Hong was watching Xiao Yan refine the pill into a human and complete an alternative human refining technique, he also noticed something unusual.

"Hmm? An aura similar to that of extraterrestrial demons. Could it be that an extraterrestrial demon has infiltrated the area disguised as an alchemist?"

This situation is very likely to happen, after all, even a place like the Great Thousand Society has experienced unexpected invasions by extraterrestrial demons.

It is quite possible that extraterrestrial demons will appear at the Wan Dan Conference.

Lan Hong didn't want to alert the enemy. Perhaps the appearance of the extraterrestrial demons was also related to the so-called Domain Guardian Project. She decided to wait and see.

He had already identified those individuals with unusual auras, so that Lan Hong could take immediate action should anything change.

As time went by, Xiao Yan completed the process of refining people from pills. Now he has reached the final step: he splits his own soul and fuses the people created from these pills through the soul fragments.

Afterwards, these people will become Xiao Yan's personal pill army.

The Dan Shen Clan also has a Dan Army, but the Dan Shen Clan's Dan Army is made using the traditional method of refining people and enforcing laws.

Although they are both from the Danish army, they are fundamentally different.

Some people objected to Xiao Yan's approach, saying it was an evil practice.

Of course, this is more a case of sour grapes.
