Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master

Chapter 334 Refining a Ninth-Grade Golden Pill

(I haven't been feeling well lately, so the quality of my work might have dropped. Sorry everyone.)

"Master...Master..."

In Xiao Li's hand was a small golden dragon, about half the size of his palm. The little golden dragon spoke human language, but its voice was extremely childish.

"Little Jin, well done. You just finished gathering your spiritual energy and need to rest..."

"good!"

The golden thunder dragon formed from the Nine Profound Golden Thunder directly entered Xiao Li's body, forming a large golden thunder dragon mark on Xiao Li's left hand.

"Next, it's time to refine the ninth-grade golden pill. I wonder how effective the Creation Golden Pill stored in the Pill Tower is."

Xiao Li took a step and arrived directly at Ancient Dragon Island. He still needed to do some preparations.

The ninth-grade golden elixir has not appeared for thousands of years, so Xiao Li naturally has to be on high alert.

00000 0

On Ancient Dragon Island, the Ancient Dragons of the Void gathered in a plaza. In the center of the plaza stood a human, who was none other than the consort of the Dragon Emperor, and also an extremely powerful alchemist.

At this moment, Xiao Li sat cross-legged in the center of the square, flipping through the formula for the Creation Golden Pill. The essential difference between the ninth-grade Golden Pill and the ninth-grade Profound Pill is that the latter absorbs the energy of the Nine Profound Golden Thunder.

But how violent is the Nine Profound Golden Lightning? It is impossible to withstand it by relying on pills alone. The only way is for the alchemist to use their own body to transfer the energy of the Nine Profound Golden Lightning to the pills.

This process is the most dangerous; the slightest mistake could destroy the entire elixir.

There is a prerequisite for summoning the Nine Profound Golden Lightning: one must possess an Emperor-level soul. Only an Emperor-level soul can communicate with heaven and earth to draw in the Nine Profound Golden Lightning.

"We only have a little over two portions of medicinal herbs now. The materials for a Grade 9 Golden Pill are truly scarce. The main ingredient also needs to be at least ten thousand years old. Fortunately, we have them on Ancient Dragon Island, but they are mostly unavailable outside."

Xiao Li sighed, then released all the medicinal herbs.

Countless medicinal herbs floated in mid-air. With a wave of his hand, Xiao Li's Yin-Yang Sacred Flame appeared and swallowed all the herbs.

"The Devouring Flame of Nothingness has a pretty good devouring ability. It works so well when refining medicinal herbs. Then the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame's purifying ability can remove impurities from the herbs, and the Flame of Life further enhances the medicinal properties of the herbs..."

Xiao Li manipulated the Yin-Yang Sacred Flame to refine medicinal herbs...

As time passed, the medicinal herbs were refined, eventually forming a nascent pill shaped like the number "∞".

"Tsk, is it trying to form two cores? Not enough energy! Since that's the case..."

Xiao Li hadn't expected such a situation to occur during his first attempt at refining a ninth-grade golden pill. Either Xiao Li would have to stop and only make it a ninth-grade profound pill, or the pill's energy would be insufficient to absorb the nine-profound golden lightning.

However, having experienced the hundred lifetimes of the Bodhi Tree, Xiao Li's skill in alchemy can be said to be the number one in the Dou Qi Continent today!

Xiao Li took out four Grade 9 Profound Pills from his storage ring, then threw them into the Yin-Yang Sacred Flame. With a flick of his hand, the four Grade 9 Profound Pills exploded simultaneously, turning into pure energy that merged into the strangely shaped pill.

"open!"

Xiao Li used all his soul power to completely separate the pill, turning it into two nascent pills!

Boom—

Just then, a loud bang was heard in the sky. First, dark thunderclouds gathered, but the next moment the thunderclouds underwent a dramatic change, turning golden!

"The Nine Profound Golden Thunder is coming!"

boom-

Just as Xiao Li finished speaking, a hundred-foot-thick Nine Profound Golden Lightning struck down!

Meanwhile, on the Dou Qi Continent, the Soul Emperor and Gu Yuan, far away in the Soul Realm and the Ancient Realm, sensed something, but the distance was too great for them to perceive it clearly.

00000

On Ancient Dragon Island, as golden lightning struck down, the Ancient Dragons of the Void who were observing were all shocked. Such powerful lightning was something that even their proud physical bodies could not withstand!

Xiao Li leaped up and rushed straight towards the golden lightning bolt.

boom-

The lightning directly engulfed Xiao Li, but the next moment a vortex seemed to appear in the center of the lightning, and the golden lightning was sucked into the vortex.

"Master, leave it to me!"

A small golden dragon appeared before Xiao Li, engulfing the golden lightning; this was the Nine Profound Golden Lightning that Xiao Li had just subdued.

"Don't finish it all, we have important business to attend to!" Xiao Li patted the little golden dragon's head.

"Leave it to me, Master! Give me those two pills, Master, I have a way!"

The Nine Profound Golden Thunder spoke, now that it had recognized Xiao Li as its master. Xiao Li's help in gathering its spiritual intelligence was a great favor to it, and Xiao Li also exuded an aura that made it feel quite close to him!

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Li sent the two nascent pills flying up. The little golden dragon then circled around the two nascent pills.

Boom boom boom—

Several more golden lightning bolts struck, all landing on the little golden dragon. However, it was not affected in any way; on the contrary, its aura became even stronger. The two uneven nascent pills that the little golden dragon was surrounded by gradually became round, and the pills gradually showed a golden color!

"I see. I didn't expect Little Gold to have such abilities. It's truly remarkable. The summoned Nine Profound Golden Lightning can not only enhance Little Gold's essence, but it can also be utilized by Little Gold. Little Gold can inject purer Nine Profound Golden Lightning energy into the embryonic core through its own power."

This greatly increases the success rate of pill formation. I'm really lucky! With Little Gold's energy conversion ability, this ninth-grade golden pill is basically complete.

Xiao Li also saw the current situation, which was completely unexpected.

Xiao Li originally wanted to subdue the Nine Profound Golden Lightning in order to refine it and become accustomed to it, making it safer to introduce it into his body.

Now it seems that the effect is even better!

Unlike other alchemical lightning, the Nine Profound Golden Lightning lasts only a few minutes, but even these few minutes of Nine Profound Golden Lightning are far more powerful than the Black Demon Lightning that lasts for several hours.

As the Nine Profound Golden Lightning receded, the two pills encircled by the little golden dragon turned completely golden, and then emitted an astonishing fluctuation!

The sudden surge of energy startled the entire Ancient Dragon Island!

Just as everyone was astonished, the two golden pills suddenly flew away into the distance!

"Trying to run away?"

Phoenix wings appeared on Xiao Li's back, and he manipulated the power of wind and thunder to catch up quickly!

Rank 9 pills are basically sentient beings, and the higher the rank, the more sentient they are. These pills can be considered as living beings. Since they are born, they naturally do not want to be eaten, so they all choose to escape!

However, these pills all misjudged one point: how could the powerful beings who could refine them easily let them escape?

Swish swish—

In a few flashes, Xiao Li caught up with the two Rank 9 Golden Pills. At this moment, the two Golden Pills took on human form, with the appearance of the young Xiao Li, and their entire bodies were golden.

"Your Mightiness.."

One of the golden flutes spoke up.

"The Elixir Transformation Technique!"

Xiao Li formed hand seals, and two white halos trapped the two golden figures!

"Ahhhhh!"

As the aperture continued to shrink, the two golden beams also gradually became smaller, eventually returning to their original form as two golden pills.

"The alchemy technique of the founder of the Pill Tower is truly remarkable. However, according to the ancestor, the alchemy technique of the founder of the Pill Tower was found in ancient relics, not created by him."

Xiao Li didn't think too much about it and took the two Rank 9 Golden Pills before returning to Dragon Island.
