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

Thus, in the time that followed, thunder rumbled constantly within the Heavenly Tomb, and a massive fire cauldron hovered in the distant sky. The spreading black and white flames instilled a deep sense of fear in many energy beings.

This scene continued for nearly a month, but in Zhongzhou, it would only have lasted six days.

When the refining process had been going on for about a month and a half, Xiao Jue, who had kept his eyes tightly closed, slowly opened them, looked at the fire cauldron in the sky, and smiled slightly.

Long Yan has disappeared without a trace. For half a month, he used the Flame of Life to accelerate the growth of medicinal herbs. He almost exhausted his battle qi as a nine-star Dou Sheng. One can imagine how enormous the energy in this pill is.

Inside the cauldron, golden light filled the air, and the golden liquid had completely dried up. However, in the center of where the liquid had originally been, a fist-sized pill, as brilliant as gold, was quietly suspended.

Golden lightning continuously seeped out from around the elixir, accompanied by a booming sound.

The ninth-grade Golden Core level Thunder Tribulation Pill has finally been successfully refined!

Xiao Jue looked at the fire cauldron with a gratified expression, stood up, and this alchemy once again made him feel the power of the Emperor Realm soul.

In the past, refining this ninth-grade golden pill would have required a tremendous amount of energy, and even then, success was not guaranteed.

"boom!"

As Xiao Jue stood up, the sky above the fire cauldron also began to churn violently, vaguely gathering into the shape of thunderclouds. Strands of golden lightning, like giant dragons, surged and weaved through the clouds.

"Danlei?"

Seeing this, Xiao Jue smiled and didn't care. With a wave of his hand, he saw Long Yan rush towards the clouds.

Suddenly, thunder rumbled across the sky, and through the hazy light, one could see numerous bolts of lightning blasting furiously at one of the figures.

The thunderous sound lasted for about ten minutes before gradually fading away. Finally, streams of pure lightning power poured down from the thunderclouds, landing entirely on the golden pill inside the cauldron.

"Buzz!"

As these thunderous powers surged in, the last trace of impurity in the pill was also cleansed away.

Suddenly, a dazzling golden light shot out from the medicine cauldron, and the lid was forcibly forced open. The Thunder Tribulation Pill inside transformed into light and rushed towards the sky at an astonishing speed.

"After all this hard work refining it, there's no way I'm going to let you get away."

Xiao Jue smiled, and with a thought, the enormous soul figure standing between heaven and earth stretched out its giant hand, directly piercing through the void and catching the fleeing golden light in its palm.

Its figure shrank instantly and swiftly entered Xiao Jue's brow, while the golden pill obediently floated in front of him.

"call!"

Looking at the perfectly round, golden pill in front of him, Xiao Jue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He could feel the terrifying power within the pill.

The quality of this Thunder Tribulation Pill is probably much better than the Thunder Emperor Golden Pill that was previously refined for Long Xiao.

Of course, this is not surprising, since in terms of materials, the Thunder Emperor Golden Pill uses a fixed amount of medicinal materials and is refined through a specific ratio of medicinal properties.

This Thunder Tribulation Pill, however, relied on a massive amount of medicinal materials to forcefully push it to the level of a ninth-grade Golden Core.

How much improvement you can achieve this time depends on you.

Xiao Jue smiled slightly at the golden pill in front of him, then closed his eyes with his hands behind his back. The Thunder Tribulation Pill transformed into a wisp of golden light and entered his mouth as he opened and closed his lips.

"Bang!"

As soon as the Thunder Tribulation Pill entered Xiao Jue's body, an incomparably violent wave erupted from within him. Instantly, sandstorms swept across the plain, and a deep depression, approximately tens of feet deep and thousands of feet wide, appeared on the plain. Xiao Jue was at the very center of that depression.

The tombstone behind Xiao Jue still stands, supported by a stone pillar. A faint light emanates from the tombstone, protecting it from destruction.

"Hiss!"

Brilliant golden lightning continuously surged from Xiao Jue's body, eventually spreading out across his surface and transforming into a deep, rumbling thunderclap.

Enveloped in the golden lightning, Xiao Jue's long hair was disheveled, and his originally purplish-gold hair now looked as if it were cast in gold.

While changes were occurring on the surface of his body, Xiao Jue's body was also roaring wildly, with violent lightning power transforming into raging dragons that surged wildly within him.

However, no matter how they collide, it seems that they always encounter an extremely hard, invisible barrier that bounces them all back.

At the same time, the Void Devouring Flame roared out from within Xiao Jue's body, directly devouring the violent energy with the most ruthless means. After being refined, it transformed into rolling pure battle qi, which then merged into Xiao Jue's body.

With the help of the Emperor Realm soul and the power of the Void Devouring Flame, refining this ninth-grade Golden Core level Thunder Tribulation Pill is a piece of cake.

Xiao Jue also possesses the Nine Profound Golden Thunder within his body, so the Thunder Tribulation Pill's greatest advantage is actually useless to him.

There's no need to seek out Long Xiao to cultivate the Yin-Yang Technique to speed things up; she probably wouldn't be too keen on it. Besides, the speed at which the Void Devouring Flame refines energy won't be much slower than cultivating the Yin-Yang Technique.

Within the enormous pit, golden light shimmered, and within that golden light, Xiao Jue kept his eyes closed, his face solemn.

Subtly, the energy of heaven and earth gradually rippled, eventually converging above the plain, creating a peculiar scene resembling the tides of heaven and earth.

The surging energy tide lasted for ten days before gradually weakening, and it took another two days for the energy tide to completely dissipate.

"laugh!"

Just as the energy tide dissipated, a golden light suddenly shot up from the huge pit, appearing from afar as if it pierced through the heavens and earth, a truly magnificent sight.

A golden pillar of light shot into the sky, and a figure slowly rose from it, then stepped through the void and gently landed on the ground.

As he landed, the pillar of light quickly dimmed and disappeared into the world.

Xiao Jue raised his head and looked at the dissipating energy tide in the sky. His hair also grew back at this moment.

However, golden lightning flashed from time to time in those purple-gold eyes, giving them a strange sense of oppressive power.

"Late-stage Nine-Star Dou Sheng!"

Xiao Jue sensed his internal condition, and a smile immediately appeared on his face. The effect of the ninth-grade golden pill did not disappoint him, allowing him to break through to the late stage of the nine-star Dou Sheng.
