Above the sky, dark clouds suddenly appeared, and thunder quickly shuttled through the clouds like a silver snake. After a while, the clouds gradually emerged in layers of colors, until the seventh color appeared, and then it slowly stopped.
Seven-colored Danlei!
If this happened in Zhongzhou, it would surely attract countless shocked glances. However, here, looking at the seven-colored pill thunder, many people shook their heads.
This result obviously could not lead to final victory, because they had seen the seven-colored pill thunder several times in these three days.
"Another seven-colored thunder..." Xuan Kongzi smiled as he looked at the thunder in the sky.
"It's Old Man Lin. He looks a little depressed..." Yao Chen smiled and glanced at the old man who summoned the seven-colored pill thunder. At this moment, the latter was shaking his head helplessly, obviously not satisfied with his results.
Xuan Yi also nodded with a smile, then turned his gaze to the direction where Lin Ran was, and said softly: "I really don't know what Sect Master Lin wants to do. Could it be that he wants to refine the ninth-grade Bodhi Pill?"
"It's hard to say. The Sect Master always does things unexpectedly."
Hearing this, Yao Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head as he looked at Lin Ran who was sitting on the Diaoyutai and taking his time.
The others were quick enough to attract pill thunder, while the slower ones gradually showed the outline of the pill, but this guy's medicine cauldron did not react at all, and Lin Ran's face did not show the slightest sign of urgency. It was unclear whether he was calm or desperate.
"Old Monster Hou should be able to successfully condense the pill within three days. If I'm not mistaken, what he is refining this time should be the 'Flame Demon Qingxuan Pill'. If this pill is successfully refined, it will definitely attract the nine-colored pill thunder..." said Xuan Kongzi.
"Well, this old fellow's alchemy skills have improved a lot over the years." Yao Chen nodded slightly and said.
However, he obviously did not feel any pressure at all. Although the eighth-grade elixir of Nine-Colored Pill Thunder was good, there was still an insurmountable gap between it and the ninth-grade elixir.
Even if Lin Ran made a mistake, the Bodhi Pill is at least an eighth-grade pill with nine-colored pill thunder.
Besides...
Will Lin Ran make a mistake?
…
Three days passed in a flash. Now, in the square, there were only a handful of people still refining. The rest had mostly successfully attracted the pill thunder and retreated.
Most of the people's eyes were focused on two people, Hou Laoguai and Lin Ran.
Everyone has identified the former pill. If the pill is successfully produced, it will definitely attract nine-colored pill thunder. This is the strongest pill thunder that has appeared in the selection so far. As for the latter...
Although Lin Ran did not have any elixir prototypes in his medicine cauldron up to now, there was only the fire dragon that was constantly circling and dancing in it, and they did not feel any fluctuations of elixir in the fire dragon.
However, the soul realm of the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Realm is right here, which is a terrifying realm that even the Danta Patriarch has never reached. Of course, they would not question Lin Ran's alchemy, but watched attentively, trying to learn something from it.
"boom!"
As everyone was watching intently, a low loud noise suddenly came from between heaven and earth, and an extremely strong energy wave suddenly spread out. Immediately, the clouds above the sky condensed like lightning.
"Is the old monster Hou's elixir about to be successfully refined?"
Seeing this scene, some people exclaimed in surprise.
Under the gazes of so many people, Hou Laoguai stood up in high spirits, and an ugly smile appeared on his dead-looking face.
Immediately, he glanced in the direction of Lin Ran and sneered in his heart.
"So what if the soul realm is strong? Alchemy is the foundation of the alchemist!"
"Once this old man's eighth-grade elixir of nine-colored pill thunder comes out, even if you refine the Bodhi Pill, you will only be on par with me."
"The Heavenly Realm Great Perfection is on par with this ordinary Heavenly Realm, hehe…"
Old Monster Hou put his hands behind his back and looked at the thunderclouds in the sky. After tumbling several times, the thunderclouds finally showed nine colors as expected.
"It is indeed the Nine-Colored Pill Thunder!"
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Haha, Yao Chen, my medicine refining skills are really worthy of your attention!"
Old Monster Hou looked at the thundercloud for a moment, then turned his head and looked at Yao Chen in the crowd, sneering.
Yao Chen nodded slightly, not anxious or impatient, with a calm expression: "It is indeed quite interesting, Old Monster Hou, you have not been sitting idle these years. If you work harder, you should be able to step into the ninth level."
"Yao Chen, you!"
Hou Laoguai's face turned cold and he sneered, "Okay, okay, you can continue to show off your power of words. My Flame Demon Qingxuan Pill and that kid's Bodhi Pill are both eighth-grade pills with nine-color pill thunder. I want to see how you can beat me!"
"Who told you that what I refined was the Bodhi Pill?"
Lin Ran slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the nine-colored thunder in the sky, and spoke calmly.
As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the people around turned to Lin Ran with surprise. It was obvious that they had not expected him to say this.
The reputation of Bodhi seeds is extremely huge in the world of alchemists, because it is the only main ingredient in refining Bodhi pills, and it is also the pill that can maximize the effectiveness of Bodhi seeds.
If Bodhi seeds are used as the main material but Bodhi Pills are not made, wouldn't that be a waste and a downgrade?
"…"
Old Monster Hou glanced at Lin Ran's still motionless flame medicine cauldron and wanted to say something, but when he thought of Lin Ran's terrifying soul realm and strength, he closed his mouth and hummed, "Let's see who's the real deal!"
Facing the sneer from Hou Laoguai, Lin Ran smiled indifferently, then slowly stood up under the gazes of many people.
"Buzz!"
As Lin Ran slowly stood up, a slight buzzing sound suddenly came from the fire cauldron in front of him.
"This is..."
Seeing this scene, many people were surprised.
"There is a slight fluctuation of the elixir in the fire cauldron." The great elder in linen clothes on the stone platform suddenly said in a hoarse and flat voice.
Upon hearing this, a hint of astonishment appeared in the eyes of the other six elders. Even with their abilities, they had not been able to sense anything, but they believed in the words of the great elder without a doubt. At that moment, they cast strange glances at Lin Ran.
"Mystification!"
Old Monster Hou was also slightly startled by this scene, but then he frowned.
Lin Ran didn't care about his words. He slowly raised his hand, then aimed it at the fire cauldron from a distance and clenched it hard.
"roar!"
Lin Ran clenched his palm, and the fire dragon hovering in the fire cauldron suddenly let out a loud dragon roar, and then its body quickly expanded under the gaze of many people.
"Bang!"
As the fire dragon expanded, the fire cauldron could no longer bear it and exploded with a loud bang.
The blazing and dazzling waves of fire burst out like an overwhelming force, instantly causing the temperature of the heaven and earth here to surge. Some alchemists who were close to them all retreated hastily with changed expressions.
"roar!"
The fire cauldron was broken, and the fire dragon expanded to several hundred feet in size in just a few breaths. It then circled above the sky, and a terrifying aura spread out. Even the nine-colored thunder in the distant sky showed signs of shrinking.
"You, what on earth are you going to do?!"
Seeing that the nine-colored thunderclouds were shrinking, the old monster Hou became anxious and shouted at Lin Ran, "It is a foul to randomly disrupt other people's alchemy!"
"You are really noisy, old man."
Lin Ran looked at Hou Laoguai calmly, and an indescribable terrifying pressure roared out from his body, instantly frightening Hou Laoguai so much that his face turned pale. He retreated two or three steps and sat down on the ground.
At this point, there was only fear on his face.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
At that moment just now, he really felt like he would be crushed to death by Lin Ran's soul!
After shocking Hou Laoguai for a while, Lin Ran did not take any further extreme actions.
After all, he came here to recruit people to join the gang. Although this old monster Hou talks too much, if Danta joins the Holy Sect, then this old monster Hou will be one of his subordinates.
Lin Ran could still tolerate an eighth-grade alchemist who had a bit of a temper.
Looking at the extremely huge and dazzling fire dragon in the sky, Lin Ran's hand prints quickly changed into a series of afterimages.
"Fire Dragon Condensed Pill!"
As Lin Ran's hand seals continued to change, the fire dragon in the sky also continued to roar with earth-shaking dragon roars, and at the same time, an astonishing energy wave suddenly spread from the fire dragon's body.
"Is this... the fluctuation of the elixir?!"
Feeling this fluctuation, many alchemists showed a look of shock on their faces. They had not noticed this kind of fluctuation at all in the past few days!
"Use fire to condense objects, and hide the elixir in the objects. It's actually a method of condensing objects to contain the elixir. Old man Yao, even you don't have such a skill!" Looking at the elixir fluctuations emanating from the fire dragon's body in the sky, Xuan Kongzi said in shock.
"This... is truly worthy of being the Sect Master."
Yao Chen opened his mouth, but could only smile bitterly and shook his head.
The method of condensing objects to create elixirs requires an extremely demanding level of fire control ability and soul strength. Even now, he only has a basic understanding of it and is not proficient in it. He will not easily use it in such situations.
I didn't expect Lin Ran to be able to perform it directly, and from the looks of it, it seemed like he was doing it effortlessly!
When Xuan Kongzi and his group were amazed at this scene, other alchemy masters also discovered the alchemy method used by Lin Ran. At that moment, exclamations rang out one after another. Among the people present, there were no more than five people who could make alchemy like this.
"This Lin Ran... is really amazing..."
On the stone platform, several elders looked at each other and sighed softly.
"boom!"
As the fluctuations emanating from the fire dragon's body became stronger and stronger, a loud bang suddenly sounded in the sky. Everyone felt that the world seemed to have suddenly gone dark, and clouds quickly gathered from all directions in the sky.
The clouds that condensed this time were not black in color, but an extremely deep and dark color.
Dark clouds filled the sky, and there was no sound of thunder. However, when people looked at the dark clouds that were so deep that even their vision could be absorbed, it seemed as if even their souls were trembling slightly at this moment.
Amidst the dark clouds, the nine-colored thundercloud above the old monster's head began to shrink rapidly, and it looked as if it had encountered something terrifying.
"What kind of thundercloud is this? It can actually make the Nine-Colored Thundercloud so scared..."
Seeing this scene, many people's pupils shrank slightly, and a horrified thought surged into their minds.
In this world, the only elixir that can be stronger than the eighth-grade elixir that attracts the nine-color elixir thunder is obviously a higher-level elixir, and the elixir above the eighth-grade... is the legendary ninth-grade elixir!
"Is it really the ninth-grade elixir? But what kind of ninth-grade elixir can be refined with Bodhi Pill as the main material?"
The alchemists present were all shocked, but more than that, they were confused.
With a soul realm of great perfection in the heavenly realm and the strength of a fighting saint, it was not surprising for them that he could refine a ninth-grade elixir.
However, it is extremely rare to use Bodhi seeds as the main material, because from the beginning to the end, the Bodhi Pill made from Bodhi seeds can only be used to refine the eighth-grade pill of Nine-Colored Pill Thunder.
"The Black Demon Thunder...I haven't seen it for many years."
The great elder in sackcloth clothes raised his head at this moment, looking at the strange black clouds in the sky, and muttered.
In the square, Lin Ran glanced at the constantly wriggling black clouds with a calm expression.
In the distant sky, black clouds kept wriggling, and the whole world was silent, without any sound of thunder. However, it was this deathly silence that made people feel terrified.
As the black clouds continued to wriggle, about ten minutes later, a circular hole suddenly and slowly appeared in the center of the cloud. Inside the hole, it was still pitch black, like the deepest black hole.
However, when this circular hole appeared, Lin Ran slowly raised his palm and slapped the hole in full view of everyone.
"laugh!"
When Lin Ran made his move, a strange sound was finally heard from the hole. Then a black lightning bolt as thick as an arm shot out from it, and then rushed towards the fire dragon below silently.
Looking at this small black lightning, the alchemy masters around were horrified and retreated quickly.
However, this terrifying thunder that frightened countless alchemists could not cause any ripples when it touched the golden palm print released by Lin Ran, and was directly disintegrated by the palm print!
This scene made everyone present dumbfounded.
"This kid actually dared to fight against the black magic thunder?!"
When the elders on the stone platform saw this scene, they couldn't help but murmur in astonishment.
"Lin Ran's strength is even higher than mine. He should have no problem dealing with a mere black magic thunder." The elder in sackcloth clothes glanced at the sky and said calmly, "This kind of black magic thunder is less in number than the eighth-grade pill thunder, but its power is extremely terrifying. Even a semi-saint would not dare to take the blow just now."
"My strength is even greater than yours?! How is this possible!"
Several elders were extremely shocked at this moment.
They knew very well how strong the old man in hemp clothes was. He was a two-star early Dou Sheng!
Being above the old man in hemp clothes, didn't that mean Lin Ran's cultivation was a two-star Dou Sheng mid-term or even late-term?
How was that possible? He was only a few years old!
