Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 207 Making Puppets

Because he would be refining pills for Yan Jin and Lei Ying later, Long Yan needed to improve his alchemy skills to the limit. Refining eighty-one Rank 8 pills of Nine-Colored Thunder Pills was no longer a challenge for him.

Now, Long Yan wants to refine nine Grade 9 Treasure Pills at the same time, which is even more difficult than refining Grade 9 Profound Pills. Long Yan's success rate is only about 30%.

However, the theoretical success rate is 100%. As long as Long Yan does not encounter any accidents, he can successfully refine them all!

"May the invincible golden body I've begun to cultivate as a fourth-grade alchemist protect me!"

Long Yan let out a long breath and began refining the medicinal herbs, fusing the medicinal liquid, and condensing the pill. Finally... three days later!

"Boom!" ×9

Nine bolts of black lightning appeared simultaneously. Long Yan's lips curled into a smile. He had succeeded!

Immediately afterwards, the nine black demon lightning bolts were refined into nine nine-colored lightning pills, followed by nine four-colored lightning pills. The nine four-colored lightning bolts were then directly dispersed into the energy of heaven and earth.

As it turns out, Xiao Jue's talent in alchemy is unparalleled, and Long Yan, as an external avatar of Yin and Yang, also possesses a talent as perfect as Xiao Jue's.

It's like an obsessive-compulsive requirement; there can be no room for even the slightest mistake. With sufficient soul power and battle qi, the success rate of refining pills is 100%.

"In terms of fire control techniques, I wonder how much of a difference there is between him and Yan Jin and Void Devouring Flame."

Long Yan seemed to be deep in thought. The Void Devouring Flame's soul power had not yet broken through to the Emperor Realm, but it was already a Nine-Star Dou Sheng. As the patriarch of the Yan Clan, Yan Jin's fire control skills were naturally beyond question.

"Clap clap clap!"

Yao Ming, who had broken through to the early stage of the four-star Dou Sheng realm, clapped his hands and walked forward, excitedly saying, "Now, you should be considered the number one alchemist on the Dou Qi Continent!"

Long Yan smiled and nodded, which was considered an admission. After all, if the medicine book of more than ten years later did not include medicine pills, wouldn't Long Yan be the number one alchemist on the continent now?

Long Yan asked, "Does the Nine Netherworld Python Clan still have any ninth-tier magic cores left? And any hard, rare metals?"

"A ninth-tier magic core?" Yao Ming shook his head and said, "The demon beast clan never keeps magic cores. When the powerful members of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan die, the energy in their magic cores is absorbed by their descendants, and their essence and blood are integrated into the Nine Netherworld Staff."

"There are many hard and rare metals, such as the iron chains on the Yellow Springs Yin Stone that bind me, which are called Nine Nether Cold Iron. They are quite strong and rare."

"But if you want a ninth-tier magic core, I can get it for you." Yao Ming smiled sinisterly and said, "There are many ancient magical beasts in the Desolate Ancient Domain, with powerful bloodlines, including quite a few ninth-tier magical beasts."

"Then I'll trouble you." Long Yan did not refuse, and Yao Ming set off directly for the Desolate Ancient Domain.

About two days later, Yao Ming returned. With a flick of his sleeve, the corpse of a giant tiger, hundreds of feet in size, fell to the ground.

Yao Ming chuckled, "The Heavenly Demon Tiger King, a late-stage one-star Dou Sheng, his demonic core should be decent, right?"

"No problem." Long Yan nodded, took out the demon core of the Heavenly Demon Tiger King, and used the Yin-Yang Twin Flames to burn its corpse, extracting hundreds of drops of essence blood and hundreds of drops of bone marrow, which were then put into a jade bottle.

The marrow and essence of a Dou Sheng are also treasures. Long Yan and Xiao Jue probably don't need them, but Xiao Jue's group of confidantes can absorb the marrow of a Dou Sheng after breaking through to Dou Zun.

The essence blood of ninth-tier magical beasts can also be used to refine pills, or later to help some souls rebuild their bodies.

"Does the Nine Netherworld Python Clan need any medicinal herbs?" Long Yan asked. "Give me the medicinal herbs that the Nine Netherworld Python Clan has collected recently, and they won't need to collect any more."

Yao Ming asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Long Yan laughed and said, "My true form has obtained the Flame of Life, so I won't need to expend energy collecting medicinal herbs anymore."

Yao Ming's lips twitched slightly, wondering if Long Yan's original body was too lucky to encounter the Flame of Life. However, he didn't know that Xiao Jue only obtained the Flame of Life because the previous owner of the Flame of Life had been killed.

The Flame of Life ranks fifth on the list of strange flames. This kind of strange flame is extremely strange, because most strange flames, although different in form, are all filled with destructive power.

This Flame of Life does not exhibit powerful destructive force; what makes it famous is the life force it exudes. It is said that when this strange flame spreads out, as long as medicinal seeds are put into it, the seeds will quickly germinate and grow.

In other words, with this kind of strange fire, there's basically no need to worry about searching for medicinal herbs. As long as you have enough seeds, you can continuously obtain the medicinal herbs you want, which is truly amazing.

Moreover, this Flame of Life is also known as the Flame of Longevity. Those who obtain it will have a lifespan comparable to that of magical beasts famous for their longevity. However, its only drawback is that this flame is not good at combat and does not significantly enhance combat power.

If the Flame of Life were to take shape, it would possess a remarkably high level of intelligence. Normally, it would not appear in the form of fire, but would instead transform into various medicinal herbs and quietly take root in the soil.

Sometimes you can walk right past it and still not recognize it. Only those with great fortune can find it by chance.

Everything has a lifespan, but if one could obtain the Flame of Life, one could greatly extend one's lifespan.

Yao Ming then thought of a magical beast in the family records that had obtained the Flame of Life, a record from tens of thousands of years ago.

That was a Xuanwu with the strength of a nine-star Dou Sheng. Xuanwu is known for its longevity, and a nine-star Dou Sheng Xuanwu could live for tens of thousands of years without any problem.

However, he unexpectedly obtained the Flame of Life and lived from the era of the Dou Di to the era of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, living for over 100,000 years before he was suspected of dying at the hands of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor.

Yao Ming went to find the elders and tribal leaders of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, and gave them a large amount of medicinal herbs and a large pile of rare metals to Long Yan.

There were no ninth-grade pills among them; most were seventh- or eighth-grade pills. Long Yan refined them all at once and handed them over to Yao Ming. After Yao Ming left, Long Yan began refining the Heavenly Demon Puppet.

The corpse of Shennong Laoren, who was a six-star Dou Sheng in life, was definitely the best material to refine the Heavenly Demon Puppet. Although it was a one-star Dou Sheng in the late stage of the Heavenly Demon Tiger King Demon Core, it did not affect its strength.

After all, the most important part of a puppet is its physical body. Long Yan added a large amount of rare metals to enhance its physical strength, and at the same time refined the remnant soul of Shennong to enhance the puppet's spirituality.

Furthermore, the puppet was tempered using the characteristics of fourteen different flames, taking a full month to successfully refine it.
