"Eight Eight-Star Dou Zun..."
"Little Fellow, this is a huge improvement for you..."
Xiao Xuan smiled slightly and spoke softly.
Xiao Yi also nodded. Now that he had these eight Eight-Star Dou Zun level Puppets in his hands.
In the future, when encountering strong enemies, he would not need Xiao Xuan to intervene every time.
After all, the current Xiao Xuan was merely a wisp of remnant Soul, and his strength was only at the level of a Five or Six-Star Dou Sheng. If Hun Tiandi knew that Xiao Xuan's Soul had left the Heavenly Tomb.
The consequences would be extremely severe.
Although Hun Tiandi, Gu Yuan, Zhu Kun, and others all shared the strength of Late Nine-Star Dou Sheng.
However, there were still differences among Nine-Star Dou Sheng. There was no need to mention Zhu Kun; although he was the old Dragon King of the Void Ancient Dragon, he had been serving as a guard in the Ancient Emperor Cave for a long time.
As for Gu Yuan, he could be called the Nine-Star Dou Sheng version of Jia Xingtian one word: cowardly!
Back then on the Fighting Qi Continent, the only person who could make Hun Tiandi wary was Xiao Xuan alone.
After Xiao Xuan's fall, Hun Tiandi could be said to look down upon everyone else on the Fighting Qi Continent, with only becoming an Emperor in his heart!
After all, the Hun Clan could be said to be the only superpower possessing two Nine-Star Dou Sheng!
Since he had decided to go to the Central Region, Xiao Xuan certainly could not casually make a move like he did now. After all, the Central Region had many watchful eyes, and it was best to be cautious in all matters...
Now that the matter of the Puppets was resolved, Xiao Yi once again set about making the final preparations for leaving the Jiama Empire!
The so-called preparations were just refining some Medicinal Pill: one was the Medicinal Pill promised to Zi Yan, and the other was a Break-Sect Pill specially refined for Hai Bodong.
Xiao Yi sat down cross-legged in this space, with the myriad beast cauldron floating in front of him.
The ancient beast markings engraved on the cauldron's body gradually lit up with a reddish glow under the scorching heat of the Fallen Heart Flame, like a sleeping giant beast slowly awakening.
The next second, a flash of flame appeared on Xiao Yi's fingertip, and the Fallen Heart Flame transformed into a flame tongue about a zhang long, gently wrapping around the cauldron wall.
The Break-Sect Pill was a sixth-grade pill. Although its grade was not considered high, its refinement required careful caution.
The heat control needed to be precise down to the millimeter. If it was slightly lower, the medicinal ingredients would be difficult to melt; if it was slightly higher, the medicinal power would be completely burned away.
Taking this opportunity, Xiao Yi could also familiarize himself once again with the entire process of refining Medicinal Pill.
Xiao Yi took a deep breath, raised his left hand, and the essence blood of the Rank 7 Demonic Beast in the jade bottle sprinkled down from the air, turning into fine bloody rain that fell into the cauldron. Upon meeting the prepared herbal juice, a pungent white mist instantly rose up.
Immediately after, Xiao Yi flicked his finger toward his storage ring.
The glistening white fragments of Gastrodia Jadeite Essence floated into the cauldron like snowflakes.
In an instant, the liquid medicine in the cauldron boiled violently, showing signs of breaking through the cauldron lid.
Xiao Yi's eyes narrowed. He pressed both palms onto the cauldron body, and majestic Spiritual Qi, like an invisible net, firmly suppressed the surging medicinal Qi.
This suppression lasted for an unknown duration.
After a long time, the fragrance of the Medicinal Pill in the air grew increasingly rich.
The Fallen Heart Flame on Xiao Yi's fingertip suddenly surged, and the myriad beast cauldron emitted a "buzzing" sound.
The cauldron lid was lifted by an invisible force.
"Pill Condensation!"
"Rise for me!"
Xiao Yi called out softly, then swiftly caught the Medicinal Pill emerging from the Pill Furnace.
The Medicinal Pill was entirely lustrous, with faint golden pill patterns circulating on its surface. When it landed, it actually caused the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within the qiankun storage ring to wildly gather, and faint sounds of thunder could be heard.
However, this phenomenon only appeared within the space of the qiankun storage ring; the outside world remained completely unaffected.
This was the miraculous aspect of the qiankun storage ring: it could conceal the Heaven and Earth phenomena that occurred when high-grade Medicinal Pill were completed, thereby mitigating some potential dangers.
After all, in the original work, when Xiao Yan refined the Break-Sect Pill, the high quality of the Medicinal Pill triggered a Heaven and Earth phenomenon, attracting the attention of Han Feng and others.
Seeing that Xiao Yi's pill refining technique was becoming increasingly mature, Xiao Xuan, who was standing beside him, also nodded in satisfaction:
"Little Fellow, your current pill refining technique has already surpassed mine from back then..."
"Not bad, not bad at all..."
Xiao Yi smiled slightly, his actions not stopping.
After all, he still owed Zi Yan the Medicinal Pill he had promised her.
That little girl was a true Pill Swallowing Beast, eating Medicinal Pill as if they were snacks.
Therefore, he needed to refine some high-volume, filling Medicinal Pill for her.
Xiao Yi's choice was naturally Qi Gathering Powder.
Because Qi Gathering Powder was only a Rank 3 Medicinal Pill, the difficulty of refining it was low. Given Xiao Yi's current fire control technique and Soul Power.
The speed of refinement was extremely fast!
Therefore, in just three or four hours, Xiao Yi had already refined a total of thirty to forty Qi Gathering Powder.
"This much should be enough..."
Xiao Yi murmured softly, then stored all the Medicinal Pill into his storage ring and left the qiankun storage ring...
However, Xiao Yi did not rest for a moment, immediately seeking out Hai Bodong.
Seeing Xiao Yi's sudden visit, Hai Bodong was slightly stunned.
The current Hai Bodong, having consumed the spirit revival purple pill, had broken the Seal placed by Medusa in his body, and his strength had already recovered to the Peak level of a Five-Star Dou Huang.
Yet, upon seeing Xiao Yi, he remained extremely respectful.
"Young friend Xiao Yi... no, Alliance Leader..."
Hai Bodong spoke respectfully.
Xiao Yi merely smiled slightly: "Elder Hai, there is no need to be polite, just call me Xiao Yi..."
"I came this time simply because I have something to ask of Elder Hai..."
Hearing this, a light flickered in Hai Bodong's eyes:
"Please speak, Alliance Leader. Since my Mittel Family has joined the Alliance, we will definitely follow the Alliance Leader's command..."
Xiao Yi nodded, then spoke in a deep voice: "Elder Hai, although we have formed an Alliance within the Jiama Empire now..."
"But I see that other Families will inevitably be somewhat unconvinced. However, I cannot stay in the Jiama Empire for long, so I hope Elder Hai can step forward later and help the Xiao Family..."
"This is a Break-Sect Pill, which can give Elder Hai an extra layer of assurance when he Breakthroughs to Dou Zong in the future..."
After Xiao Yi finished speaking, he handed the jade bottle containing the Break-Sect Pill to Hai Bodong.
Hai Bodong's emotions were clearly agitated at this moment, after all, he knew what the Break-Sect Pill meant to the Jia Ma Empire!
"Alliance Leader, please rest assured..."
However, just as Hai Bodong's voice fell, two figures flashed past and arrived beside Xiao Yi.
"Well, Xiao Yi!"
"You have this good Medicinal Pill and you don't give it to me, you choose to give it to this old man?"
Zi Yan stared fixedly at the Break-Sect Pill in Hai Bodong's hand and complained.
Xiao Yi merely smiled slightly and handed Zi Yan thirty full Qi Gathering Powder:
"Here, the Medicinal Pill I promised you are here..."
Zi Yan took the Qi Gathering Powder and immediately began to sample them:
"It's Qi Gathering Powder again!"
"You fool me with this low-grade Medicinal Pill every day! I want to eat that Break-Sect Pill too!"
"Sigh, Xiao Yi, your strength is getting stronger, but your pill refining technique seems to have declined..."
Zi Yan complained while eating the Qi Gathering Powder.
Xiao Yi merely smiled slightly:
"I have high-grade Medicinal Pill too. If you just come with me to a certain place, you can have as many high-grade Medicinal Pill as you want!"
Zi Yan instantly became energetic: "Where are we going?"
Xiao Yi patted Zi Yan's head:
"Jia Nan Academy, to find your father..."
