Battle Through the Heavens: Reborn as a Devouring Python, Medusa is taken home.

Chapter 169, Eighth-Grade Pills Appear Simultaneously

As time went on, people began to successfully refine elixirs one after another.

However, at the beginning, only fifth- and sixth-grade pills were successfully refined.

This grade of pill is considered quite good even under normal circumstances.

However, these pills are not up to par at this alchemy gathering because they are of a significantly lower grade than seventh- or eighth-grade pills, so they can be refined much faster.

However, there is still plenty of time. Even though they have successfully refined one pill, they did not give up. Instead, they continued to refine a second pill.

With the first pill as a safety net, they can try to obtain other higher-level pills the second time, and it won't matter if they fail.

Another day passed, and finally, a seventh-grade elixir was successfully produced.

The resulting thunderous aura and rich, colored fragrance of the pills are unmatched by fifth- or sixth-grade pills.

"Seventh grade, it's a seventh-grade elixir!"

"Finally, someone has successfully refined a seventh-grade pill! Now, the real gathering of heroes will begin!"

The alchemist who had successfully refined the seventh-grade pill couldn't help but cheer excitedly.

This was clearly a very bold attempt for him, and now that he has succeeded, he is filled with a great sense of accomplishment.

Even the three giants nodded slightly in approval.

Although seventh-grade pills are not the most advanced level, they are still considered high-quality.

A seventh-grade alchemist can be considered one of the best alchemists in the entire Dou Qi Continent.

After all, there are very few eighth-grade alchemists, and even the Pill Tower doesn't have many.

Therefore, a seventh-grade alchemist is already the passing grade for the Pill Tower.

Once there's one, there's bound to be two. The first grade seven pill was produced, and then came the second, the third, the fourth...

One after another, seventh-grade pills were produced, a sight that even the most knowledgeable person couldn't help but marvel at.

"These people are pretty fast."

Ning Su calmly maintained her own pace.

The pills he refined were more difficult to make, and naturally took longer to prepare.

Later on, many more seventh-grade pills were produced.

They have all the levels: Rank 7 (beginner), Rank 7 (intermediate), Rank 7 (advanced), and Rank 7 (peak).

The appearance of these high-level pills one after another was quite an eye-opener for everyone.

But they all knew that although seventh-grade pills were very powerful, they were not enough to win the championship of this pill competition.

Because those few people who are receiving the most attention haven't even produced their cores yet!

……

On the other side of the stone platform, Dan Chen was concentrating on refining the pills in the medicine cauldron.

However, her constitution was already weak, and the pills in the medicine cauldron were the culmination of her greatest efforts in this life, which made her pale and her soul power greatly depleted.

"We're almost... going to succeed!"

She tightened her teeth, her eyes fixed quietly on the medicine cauldron, continuously pouring her soul power into it.

Suddenly, her expression changed, and she couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, which, along with the flames, merged into the pills in the cauldron.

The pills inside the cauldron, now stained with blood, suddenly erupted with an astonishing surge of energy.

The medicine cauldron exploded at that moment, and a huge pillar of energy shot into the sky.

She didn't fail at alchemy; she's about to enter the final stage of pill condensation!

Dark clouds filled the sky, and thunder roared. All the other thunderclouds that had been drawn by the refining of seventh-grade pills avoided the sky at this moment.

Two colors gradually appeared within the thunderclouds that Dan Chen had summoned.

Two-colored thunderclouds!

"This is... a two-colored thundercloud?!"

"An eighth-grade elixir! An eighth-grade elixir has appeared!"

"I knew this year's Alchemy Gathering would produce an eighth-grade pill, and I was right!"

"To see an eighth-grade elixir with my own eyes, my life has been worthwhile!"

Grade 8 pills are the highest-grade pills that alchemists can currently refine.

Although there is a ninth rank above the eighth rank, even the three giants of the Pill Tower have not reached the ninth rank of alchemist, let alone others.

Grade 8 is the highest level of elixir that almost everyone can encounter in their lifetime.

Eighth-grade pills are no longer simply categorized as primary, intermediate, and advanced.

Instead, they are classified according to the color of the thunderclouds.

From single-color Danlei to nine-color Danlei, the more colors Danlei has, the better its quality.

Dan Chen has now attracted two-colored thunderclouds. Although there aren't many, it proves that her pills are genuine eighth-grade pills!

The latest novel is first published here!

"This young girl from the Dan family is indeed quite talented; she can already refine eighth-grade pills." Xuan Kongzi nodded approvingly.

Dan Chen is so young, yet he is already able to refine eighth-grade pills.

The three giants hadn't achieved this much when they were her age.

"She should be the youngest eighth-grade alchemist in history, but unfortunately her special physique has caused her a lot of suffering," Tian Leizi said.

"Heaven is jealous of talent. If a person is particularly outstanding in one aspect, then there must be some shortcomings in other aspects. Otherwise, if someone is outstanding in all aspects, they will not be tolerated by the way of heaven," Xuan Yi said.

Dan Chen is a member of the Dan family, so they naturally know him.

"Now let's see how the remaining guys fared. I wonder how Cao Ying compares to Dan Chen."

Dan Chen was only the first rank-eight pill, not the last.

……

As expected, after Dan Chen summoned the two-colored thunderclouds, Cao Ying, who was standing to the side, slowly stood up and said with a charming smile,

"Dan Chen, you're really amazing! But it's still uncertain who will win this time."

She formed hand seals, and an astonishing energy fluctuation erupted from the medicine cauldron in front of her.

"rise!"

A beam of light shot into the sky, and the already rumbling thunder attracted a two-colored thundercloud once again.

But after two colors appeared, a third color, red, slowly emerged.

Although it ultimately failed to transform into a three-colored thundercloud, it was still better than a regular two-colored thundercloud, slightly surpassing Dan Chen's.

"Another grade eight pill!"

"My goodness, this year's Alchemy Conference is truly full of hidden talents!"

The consecutive administration of two Grade 8 pills caused the entire audience to erupt in excitement.

Shortly after they attracted the Dan Lei, an old man in another place also had a cauldron with an astonishing pillar of light rise up, and then three-colored Dan Lei was drawn out from the sky.

This is a genuine three-colored Danlei; the third color is much stronger than the pale color of Cao Ying's.

"Old Monster Aoki's alchemy skills have improved quite a bit."

The younger generation didn't recognize the old man, but the older generation of alchemists all knew him.

Old Monster Qingmu is renowned among rogue alchemists, having already reached the eighth rank.

He was an alchemist of the same generation as the three giants. If it weren't for the temptation of the Three Thousand Burning Flames, he wouldn't have stooped to attend the Pill Gathering.

With Qinghua Old Monster also finishing his alchemy, only two people remained on the field...
