Gray stared blankly at the scenes unfolding before his eyes as waves of shock surged through his heart.
"What's going on? Am I seeing things?" He rubbed his eyes before turning toward An Lin again, upon which he was greeted by the sight of An Lin's hands fluidly dancing in the air.
The crimson flames were extremely lively, as if they had a life of their own as they danced around joyfully. All of the materials within the pill refinement cauldron were enshrouded by the flames, and they were constantly being refined at a high speed.
"This … this technique … why can't I understand it?" Gray felt like he was watching a magic spell.
The essence of all of the materials was extracted and fused together to form a single entity.
The pill had already begun to materialize, and the entire process was extremely smooth. It could even be said that this was a flawless operation.
The unique properties of the flames began to attach themselves to the spirit pill, slowly elevating its quality.
Boom!
At this moment, a powerful vital energy fluctuation erupted in the distance.
Someone had completed the pill first!
A green pill hovered in mid-air.
Rika, whose entire body was constructed from blue liquid, chortled with glee as she caressed the pill. "I've finally refined a fourth-grade spirit pill! This is the first time I've ever refined one!"
She was ecstatic. Successfully refining a fourth-grade spirit pill was basically enough. At the very least, she would be able to enter the top five.
She turned toward her competitors, the Black Sword Lord and Ban Yue. Hmm, those two had also reached the core condensation stage. It looked like it was only a matter of time before they refined a fourth-grade spirit pill.
Huh? That blue ice dragon seems to be quite powerful as well. It's a dark horse. I think its name is Julia?
Rika became more cautious. There were so many prodigies in this world, so there would naturally be unexpected competitors. That blue western dragon was most likely a dark horse.
She then turned toward a certain direction with a mocking smile on her face.
Now, she was going to see how that arrogant and stupid human was faring.
Had he broken down or fallen into despair?
Rika turned toward Xu Xiaolan, and her pupils contracted upon seeing the flames Xu Xiaolan had unleashed. She stood rooted to the spot with a dumbstruck expression. "T-that's … a Divine Flame?!"
The Divine Flame that she had always dreamed of was being unleashed by a human that she looked down upon.
Boom!
Xu Xiaolan's pill was complete!
A rich pill aroma wafted through the entire space.
There was a golden flame phoenix dancing above the green spiritual dan. This was the addition of the divine flame.
Rika's body swayed slightly, and she felt as if a sword had been stabbed into her heart. "This spirit pill … is probably at the pinnacle of fourth-grade spirit pills, right?"
The moment Xu Xiaolan succeeded in condensing her core, the hundreds of thousands of spectators were shocked once again. The living beings who had been mocking her earlier now tightly shut their mouths, feeling extremely ashamed.
The ten Pill Tower Elders on the stage were also slightly startled. They knew that Xu Xiaolan was very powerful, but this degree of power seemed to be much higher than what they had expected.
"Soul Creation Stage pill refinement techniques, Divine Flame level pill refinement flames, and an extremely profound cultivation base … Genius, she really is an exceptional pill refinement prodigy!" A twisted crimson spider exclaimed.
"The Pill Sage's daughter really has a worthy opponent now …" The four-armed ape stroked his beard as he spoke.
"Hmm, this mid-rank immortal artifact, Nine Spirit Cauldron of Eight Desolation was originally going to be a gift from the Pill Sage to his daughter. Now that I look at it …" A white flame figure shook its head with a worried look on its face.
Rumble! Rumble!
At this moment, the Black Sword Lord and Ban Yue also completed their pill refinement.
They had already heard the cheers from the spectators, and now that they had completed their pills, they turned toward the center of attention, upon which they faltered again.
That was a spirit pill with extremely powerful energy fluctuations and the aura of Divine Flame revolving around it …
Xu Xiaolan! It was her again!
There was no need for the elders to make a judgment. Even they could tell that Xu Xiaolan's pill was more powerful than theirs!
Thinking back to what they had said earlier, it really was a joke …
Using her full power right from the start? Only able to refine a spirit pill at the pinnacle of the fifth-grade? Being a show-off?
Now, it looked like those rumors had been completely debunked.
The Black Sword Lord and Ban Yue's faces were both a little flushed with embarrassment, and they were at a loss for words.
Being a show-off wasn't wrong. She was most likely going to crush them all the way until the end of the competition! What's wrong? Are you still not convinced?
"Who would have thought … It looks like we really aren't fated to become the champion this time," the Black Sword Lord said with a bitter expression.
"Xu Xiaolan? Looks like another top-tier pill refinement grandmaster is about to appear in the human race. "Ban Yue shook her head.
"The champion is most likely going to be her. She really is the biggest dark horse. We can only secure a spot in the top five …" Rika also wore a resigned expression. In the face of absolute power, she had no choice but to concede.
Rumble!
Another violent shockwave erupted.
Everyone turned toward a certain direction to discover a woman in a black robe. Her golden eyes were slightly narrowed, and she seemed to be smiling. In front of her was a green Rejuvenation Spirit Pill with golden threads revolving around it. The life force energy within the pill was imbued with rich spiritual might.
All of the contestants' expressions became very interesting. In particular, Rika, the Black Sword Lord, and Ban Yue. All of their expressions were filled with astonishment.
This fourth-grade spirit pill was also of an extremely high quality!
Another dark horse had appeared!
Their limelight had been overshadowed again!
"Who is that? I can't see clearly with that black robe … "
"Where did so many prodigies come from? This shouldn't be happening!"
"Sigh, it's going to be too difficult to become the champion this time."
Just as the three of them were discussing among themselves, a certain place suddenly began to tremor violently.
A pillar of azure light soared into the sky as rich pill energy surged for over a kilometer!
Countless people turned toward that place that had been overlooked this entire time.
There was a black dragon with a blank expression, as well as a human man in a flowing white robe.
A green spirit pill hovered between the man's hands, from which a terrifying spiritual aura erupted, as if he had broken through some kind of shackle and was ascending to a higher level.
Meimei's lips parted slightly as her eyes widened.
All of the spectators also turned to look at the man with astonishment upon seeing such a fearsome display.
All of the contestants who knew what was going on were rooted to the spot in shock.
Even the members of the Roasting Trio were dumbstruck.
The woman in the black robe turned toward that direction, and her smile slowly faded.
Xu Xiaolan's jade dress danced in the wind as a smile appeared on her face. "An Lin, you really are … You never forget to surprise me no matter where you are?"
In the elder seating area, the ten elders stood up at almost the same time, their faces filled with disbelief.
One of the elders exclaimed in shock, "This is no longer something that can be described as merely being at the pinnacle of the fourth-grade. The refinement process is perfect, the fusion process is perfect, and the pill condensation process is perfect. This is a fourth-grade spirit pill that has been perfected in all of the steps!"
The flaming white figure shook its head. "No … The pill fragrance has reached over a kilometer, and the pillar of light has already appeared. This can no longer be referred to as a fourth-grade spirit pill. This is … a third-grade spirit pill!"
"Gasp …" All of the elders drew a sharp intake of breath.
He had given the human man the pill recipe for a fourth-grade spirit pill, but he had refined the fourth-grade spirit pill into a third-grade spirit pill and upgraded the spirit pill …
This kid was terrifying to this extent!
