Battle Through the Heavens: The Inner Struggle of Cultivation Brings Xiao Yan to Tears

Although Xiao Yang looks very young, he doesn't look like a fifth-grade alchemist at all.

However, Elder Hao knew Elder Huo's personality.

He knew that if Elder Huo could say that Xiao Yang's alchemy skills were stronger than his, then it was indeed true.

Elder Huo, with his pride, would not lie.

Seeing Xiao Yang agree, Elder Hao's eyes lit up.

He hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and took out a scroll of pill formulas from his storage ring.

"I wonder if Elder Xiao is able to refine a fifth-grade Mingwang Pill."

As he spoke, he handed the prescription to Xiao Yang.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang's eyes lit up.

He pushed the prescription back and said.

"I know about the Mingwang Pill. Does Elder Hao have enough medicinal materials?"

Chapter 229 Zi Yan

Xiao Yang's Complete Collection of Grade 5 Pill Recipes records all the Grade 5 pills that have appeared on the Dou Qi Continent.

Among them is the formula for Mingwang Dan.

He had previously seen the formula for Mingwang Dan.

However, Xiao Yang never had enough medicinal herbs.

Moreover, he hasn't broken through to the Dou Wang level yet, so there's no rush.

The function of the Mingwang Pill is very simple: it is used to help a Battle King break through to the next level.

One Mingwang Pill has a chance to allow a Douwang to break through to the next level.

However, the chances are not high, depending on the quality.

Even with a top-grade Mingwang Pill, the chance of success is probably only 50%.

However, even if a breakthrough cannot be achieved, it can still improve a cultivator's battle qi cultivation.

One person can take Mingwang Dan three times.

However, with each use, the chance of breaking through to the next star level is halved.

It is precisely for this reason that the Mingwang Pill is only a fifth-grade pill.

However, its refining difficulty is no less than that of some sixth-grade pills.

Upon hearing that Xiao Yang knew about the Mingwang Pill, Elder Hao's eyes lit up.

"Yes, I possess the ingredients for three portions of the Bright King Pill!"

Elder Huo was somewhat puzzled at this moment.

Because he had never heard of Ming Wang Dan.

What is Mingwang Dan?

He looked directly at Elder Hao and asked.

Upon hearing this, Elder Hao remained silent and instead looked at Xiao Yang.

Without hesitation, Xiao Yang explained the effects of the Mingwang Pill.

"Tsk tsk, there are actually such pills."

"No wonder you never asked me to refine it before."

"It's as difficult as making a sixth-grade pill, I really have no confidence."

Elder Hao spoke up somewhat embarrassedly.

"I originally wanted to wait until you broke through to the sixth rank before asking you to refine it."

As he spoke, a hint of hesitation flashed across his face.

Elder Huo could also see what Elder Hao was thinking at that moment.

He spoke directly.

"I really can't refine such a pill."

"But Elder Xiao should be perfectly fine."

"His alchemy skills far surpass mine."

"If his battle qi cultivation were not relatively low, refining sixth-grade pills would not be a big problem."

At this moment, Elder Huo's face was full of emotion.

Upon hearing this, Elder Hao looked at Xiao Yang somewhat embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, Elder Xiao."

Xiao Yang waved his hand.

"It's alright, it's only human nature."

"Elder Hao will need to spend a lot of effort, time and money to collect the ingredients for the Mingwang Pill."

"It's normal to be cautious."

"You can take your time to think about it."

However, Elder Hao directly took out the medicinal herbs he had collected.

"These are the medicinal herbs."

"No need to think about it. I trust Old Man Huo, and I also trust Elder Xiao."

"Please help me refine the Bright King Pill."

"You can name your desired compensation."

Xiao Yang thought for a moment and realized that what he needed most right now was medicinal herbs.

So he spoke directly.

"How about we use high-grade medicinal herbs as payment?"

Elder Hao nodded upon hearing this.

“No problem, I’ve accumulated some medicinal herbs over the years.”

"These ten high-grade medicinal herbs will serve as your reward."

As he spoke, Elder Hao took out ten boxes.

Xiao Yang discovered that these high-level medicinal materials were not common high-level medicinal materials.

Six out of ten plants were ones he didn't have!

He quickly created a task to accept it.

"Elder Hao, don't worry, I'll start refining it when I get back tonight."

"I can refine it for you tomorrow."

Elder Hao looked at Xiao Yang, who had a confident expression, and a hint of expectation flashed in his eyes.

"Then I'll have to trouble Elder Xiao."

Xiao Yang nodded, and after selecting his medicinal herbs, he bid farewell to the two of them.

He was preparing to go back to refine medicine.

By the way, we should also plant the medicinal herbs we obtained today in the medicinal herb field.

……

Soon, Xiao Yang returned to the villa.

After speaking with Little Fairy Doctor and the others, he went to a room.

He took out the Strange Fire Tower and went inside.

Making Mingwang Dan is quite difficult.

Even for Xiao Yang, it's not simple.

Therefore, he went directly into the Tower of Strange Fire, where no one would disturb him.

After planting the medicinal herbs he had obtained that day, including those from the mission rewards, in the medicinal field, Xiao Yang began to adjust his condition.

Soon, his fighting spirit and soul power reached their peak.

Without hesitation, he took out the Heavenly Profound Cauldron and poured the Origin Fire into it.

Then, Xiao Yang directly threw a portion of the ingredients for the Mingwang Pill into it.

To Xiao Yang's delight, creating a task to refine a Mingwang Pill actually rewarded him with three points of proficiency.

Normally, he would only get a little bit of proficiency reward for refining three ordinary grade-five pills.

However, there are three points about a single Mingwang Dan.

This is enough to show how difficult it is to refine the Mingwang Dan.

The last time something like this happened was when Xiao Yang was refining the Dou Zhe Pill.

This is enough to show that the difficulty of refining the Mingwang Pill is far beyond the fifth grade.

Fortunately, it was only a fifth-grade pill, and Xiao Yang was confident that he could successfully refine it with his current cultivation level.

As for soul power, that goes without saying.

He quickly completed the extraction of all the medicinal materials for the Mingwang Dan.

Next comes the most difficult moment.

Xiao Yang used the Fusion Pill Technique to reduce the input of his battle qi and soul power.

Even so, the essence of these medicinal herbs continued to slowly blend together.
