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

Chapter 83 Imperial Elixir

Amidst the joy of the old apothecary, Xiao Jue successfully used his soul power to replace his battle qi and refined this sixth-grade pill. Since it was a public display of divine power, he naturally wouldn't use the Yin-Yang Cauldron to suppress the extraordinary phenomenon of the pill's formation.

The somewhat irregularly shaped, pale yellow pill prototype gradually became rounder, radiating brilliant light that made it resemble a yellow gemstone.

The moment the elixir burst forth with dazzling light, ripples of energy, almost tangible, surged outwards from the Yin-Yang Cauldron, creating a spectacular, continuous flow.

Xiao Jue's hand seals suddenly changed, and a low shout came from his mouth. Instantly, the black and white flames inside the Yin-Yang Cauldron surged, almost filling the entire cauldron. Amidst the black and white colors, a dazzling yellow light spot became even more eye-catching.

The yellow light spot shrank and expanded, and as it expanded, ripples of energy spread out even more rapidly, looking down from mid-air, only to quickly converge and merge into the yellow light spot.

The yellow light spot expanded and contracted more and more rapidly, as if it were brewing something. After nearly half an hour, the light spot suddenly shrank to its smallest size!

As the light spot shrank rapidly, the solemnity on Xiao Jue's face became more intense than ever before!

This was his first time refining a sixth-grade pill, and he didn't want to fail, nor could he possibly fail!

"boom!"

After shrinking for several minutes, the light spot suddenly enlarged in Xiao Jue's fixed gaze. Finally, a surge of blue light enveloped the entire square, and a thunderous explosion rang out from nowhere. Immediately afterwards, a yellow beam of light, about two zhang thick, shot into the sky from inside the Yin-Yang Cauldron!

Staring dumbfounded at the enormous yellow pillar of light shooting into the sky, the onlookers couldn't help but gasp. This was far too much!

As expected of a sixth-grade pill!

Meanwhile, Fa Ma's Three-Patterned Azure Spirit Pill had already been completed, and given his status, collecting three different beast flames would be a piece of cake.

Watching Xiao Jue refine the Imperial Extreme Pill, Fa Ma couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was getting old. He had been surpassed by Gu He, and now he had been surpassed by this young man, Xiao Jue.

Above the azure sky, a thick, yellow beam of energy shot straight into the heavens and lingered for a long time.

Xiao Jue slowly sat up from the ground, glanced at the huge pillar of light, and waved his hand. The pillar of light trembled rapidly. After a moment, a wisp of yellow light drifted down from the pillar of light and finally hovered above his palm.

The black light gradually faded, revealing its true form: a yellow pill the size of a longan. The pill's surface was perfectly round, with golden light swirling around it, making it extremely mysterious.

As the wisp of yellow light detached from the pillar of light, the enormous pillar of light trembled slightly, as if it had lost its energy support, and then gradually became illusory until it finally dissipated completely.

"I have lost." Fa Ma's old face was full of smiles as he tossed the jade bottle containing the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill to Xiao Jue and chuckled, "This Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill is useless to me, so I'll take it as a gift for you."

Xiao Jue put the Imperial Extreme Pill into his jade bottle, along with the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill that Fa Ma had given him. Looking at the cheers around him, his face was full of smiles. From today onwards, he was a well-deserved sixth-grade alchemist!

Even without Yao Lao's help, Xiao Jue far surpasses Fa Ma in the fifth-grade alchemist category, making him the well-deserved number one alchemist of the Jia Ma Empire.

……

"I will not stay in the capital during the Alchemist Conference."

Back at the Mittel family, Xiao Jue looked at Yao Yue, whose eyes were full of admiration, and chuckled, "If you can win the Alchemist Tournament, I can help you become a fifth-grade alchemist within a year."

Being able to refine a Grade 4 Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill, becoming a Grade 5 alchemist wouldn't be too difficult. As long as Yao Yue breaks through to the Dou Ling realm, she will most likely become a Grade 5 alchemist directly.

Yaoyue said with a wronged expression, "Doesn't the teacher want to see Yue'er win the championship?"

"Good girl." Xiao Jue stroked her hair, handed her a jade bottle, and said, "This contains the Primordial Bone-Sculpting Pill. Give it to Elder Jia when you get back."

After giving Yao Yue his instructions, Xiao Jue went to find Xiao Yan, who asked, "Are you planning to go to the Yunlan Sect now?"

The old doctor had told him that he and Xiao Jue would be leaving for a while to go to the Yunlan Sect. He also mentioned that there might be something more between Xiao Jue, Yun Yun, and Nalan Yanran, but Xiao Yan didn't care about that. Whatever happened between Xiao Jue and Nalan Yanran, what did it have to do with him?

He and Nalan Yanran have no relationship anymore. Once the three-year agreement ends, the two will have no further connection.

Xiao Jue laughed and said, "That's right, I'll need Elder Yao to accompany me. What kind of pills are you planning to refine at the Alchemist Conference?"

Xiao Yan's lips curled up slightly. "What kind of pill does the royal princess plan to refine? As her senior master, I can't lose to her."

Xiao Jue grinned mischievously, "She's planning to refine a Restoration Pill. Have you become a fifth-grade alchemist yet?"

Xiao Yan couldn't help but widen his eyes, and then Xiao Jue burst out laughing. Sure enough, he had scared Xiao Yan, that idiot. He was still so easy to fool.

Seeing Xiao Jue burst into laughter, Xiao Yan immediately realized he had been tricked. He couldn't help but roll his eyes. "That bastard Xiao Jue, Yao Yue isn't even a Dou Ling yet, how could she possibly refine a fifth-grade pill?"

Xiao Jue truthfully said, "Yaoyue's success rate in refining the Grade 4 Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill is not low, it can even be said to be very high. If you also refine the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill, your chances of beating her are not high."

The latest novel is first published here!

Xiao Yan's lips twitched slightly. It was one thing to be inferior to Xiao Jue, but how come he couldn't even compare to Xiao Jue's disciple now?

"Hehe, you'd better be able to refine a Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill of even higher quality than the Moonlit Dew." Xiao Jue chuckled. "I'll definitely give you any strange fire I can find, but if you win the championship, I'll give you a top-tier secret technique, one related to strange fire, that can enhance your strength."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Is that secret technique very powerful?"

"The founder of this secret technique was Xiao Xuan, the last patriarch of the Xiao clan and an ancestor of the Xiao family. He was a nine-star Dou Sheng, stronger than Xun'er's father. If he were still alive, he would definitely be the strongest person on the Dou Qi Continent."

……

As night fell and the capital city gradually fell silent, a figure silently swept across the sky above the capital.

Xiao Jue, shrouded in a black robe, paused in mid-air outside the capital. He glanced at the massive, snow-white mountain dozens of miles away and whispered, "Elder Yao, the Yunlan Sect is on that mountain."

Looking at the Bone Flame Ring on his hand, Xiao Jue wondered if Yao Lao could be considered a common grandfather figure for both him and Xiao Yan.
