After waiting for another three to five seconds, Wang Zhong carefully opened the lid of the jade box. He saw 16 pills that were as clean as white jade quietly lying in the jade box. Each pill was about the size of a pigeon's egg, and their appearance was rather good. This was related to the technique used to place the pills. However, their shapes were different. Some were rather round, while others were slightly oval.
This was within his expectations. After all, this was his first time. To Lao Wang, being able to form pills in the end was already a pleasant surprise.
"Give me a score." This was his first batch of pills. Even though he could tell at a glance that it was still extremely far from perfection, Lao Wang was still very excited.
"60%." Nini gave him a score without hesitation.
Lao Wang laughed out loud. He did not know if this girl was trying to flatter him. Overall, he was very satisfied. The process of pill refinery was abnormally rich. No wonder it was said that one could comprehend the path through pill refinery.
Frankly speaking, Nini was already shocked by her master's ability to form pills on his first try. She did not know about the monsters in the sky, but in the history of pill refinery in the divine territory and the Land that she knew of, there had never been such a thing!
There was no lack of natural endowments and capable people in the divine territory, but pill refinery was not about brute force. It required the coordination of spiritual power, knowledge, control, and many other aspects. The most important thing was one's mentality. Many young alchemists could only form this mentality after many years of suffering. It seemed like her master was born with this mentality.
Nini was very satisfied with her foresight. She was very happy. When she returned, she would definitely show off to those b * tches!
In the Sacred Arena.
Aiolos touched his cold left hand. In reality, it was a fake hand. Aiolos had paid an extremely heavy price in the battle with the sweeper. Even though his left arm had been saved and reattached, one-third of it had been modified with the divine territory's alchemy prosthetics. Even though this was a fake hand, as long as he did not deliberately think about it, he would almost forget that it was a fake hand.
Two days after killing the sweeper, Aiolos won two high-level gladiatorial battles in a row. This made his reputation as a gladiator grow, and more and more aristocrats paid attention to and liked him. He had a 100% winning rate, and some people even started to bet on his battles. This made it difficult for those who had been plotting against him to carry out their small schemes against him. Aiolos's victory rate was 100%.
However, Tsarilorhuan was even more worried for Aiolos. The more attention a Gladiator received, the easier it was for them to die in the Arena. In the Wrestling Ring, the more famous one was, the stronger one's opponents would be. No one could guarantee that one would always be the one to survive.
However, Tsari was very clear that at this stage, Aiolos no longer had a path of retreat.
"Even that vixen won't be able to redeem you now." There was a huge difference between Famous and Nameless here.
Aiolos smiled. In reality, even if he could, he would not leave. More and more people in the divine territory started to recognize humans again because of him. For humans, this was a very good opportunity.
He thought of Undine. Ever since the day he lost his arm, he had not been able to see her again. However, he knew that she had always been there. The modification of his left arm was also the work of the master alchemist that she had hired.
Aioros stood up. He could hear the roars coming from the arena. This battle had ended. Next up would be the last battle of the day. Aioros was the finale of today's Arena.
Boom …
As Aioros stepped into the arena, he was immediately greeted by the loud shouts of the audience from all directions. No matter what they were shouting, when all the voices converged together, it was as if the only thing that could be heard was the rumbling of the arena.
Aiolos raised his head and looked around at today's arena. The arena could easily hold a million people. At that moment, there were people everywhere, as if it was a festival.
When they saw Aiolos enter the arena, cheers sounded from all directions. These were the audience that had high expectations for him.
However, the louder cheers belonged to his opponent.
"Let us welcome our Undying Heavenly Demon from the mighty bone demon race — — Briesis!"
"Briesis! Briesis! Briesis! "
Rumble rumble rumble … People roared Briesis's name, and it was like thunder that was close at hand. It boomed in Aiolos's ears. He saw a terrifying white skeleton crawl out from the entrance of the Arena opposite him.
As a member of the bone demon race from a level-7 civilization, bone demons had broken away from their primitive bodies of flesh and blood. Their demonic bone bodies did not seem to have any so-called "vital points". They did not have hearts or brains, and they had an extraordinary understanding of combat. They lived by fighting! In the divine territory, among all the races that were most adept at combat, the bone demon race could squeeze into the top five.
Aiolos calmly watched the massive white skeleton walk into the arena. This was a terrifying monster that truly had an undying body.
The host who was hosting this battle also used an excited tone to introduce him to the audience. "Briesis is the 'Kena' of the bone demon race, which means' undying bones'!"
"Meanwhile, our other warrior, that's right, is the human from Earth who has made everyone wait for a long time today — — Aiolos! He is a powerful combat master and is proficient in various combat techniques. There is no doubt about it! He is the illegitimate child of miracles, the lucky biological child — — In the past month, we have seen too many miracles and luck from him. However, that is in the past. Now, he will face a true test, a test from the mighty Kena of the bone demon race. Does our Earthling have the qualifications to have a place for himself here, in this Arena that belongs to all of us?! "
Roar … Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Everyone's wild shouts converged in the sky above the arena, as if the thunder in spring was calling for rain. This battle had been anticipated for a long time, and it was the most exciting battle recently.
After Aiolos defeated the sweeper Troussiyer, he had been promoted and defeated two powerful opponents in a row. Now, he finally faced a true combat expert — — the undying bones, Briesis, a bone demon who lived to fight and a level-7 civilization who lived to fight. Could the Earthlings surpass him? Failure meant death, but what if they could win?
In the arena, there were many bone demon fans. They crazily shouted, "Born to fight! Undying bones! Briesis! "
However, there were still many people who believed in Aiolos. They waved the betting tokens in their hands and bet on Aiolos's victory. "No one believes that he can survive in the Arena. He did it, and no one believes that he can defeat Troussiyer. He did it again. Now, we will use our Star Coins to believe that he can defeat the bone demon. Aiolos, please speak for miracles again!"
This angered the fans of the bone demon. They rushed into the betting area and waved the tokens that they had bet on the bone demon's victory as they rushed back. "We will let you know what regret is."
This kind of battle caused this battle to be filled with a tense atmosphere that was like smoke.
In the golden spectator stands, a few Titan aristocrats were conversing. Like Tsari, they had silver lightning in their hair, and the lightning in their eyes was like fog and nebula.
Unlike ordinary spectators, as aristocrats, they knew many truths. This was an unfair battle. With Aiolos's battle achievements, he should not have encountered Briesis. In their eyes, the arguments and roars in the spectator stands below the Arena were laughable. This was because this had been arranged in advance. Only ignorant people would participate in this. Of course, aristocrats would also participate in this. However, their attitudes and perspectives were different. They were calm, aloof, and focused on playing.
"Very good. Recently, Tsari's battle has become more stable."
"No one can let a noble Titan die in dishonor and unfairness."
This group of Titans was not here to save Tsarilorhuan. However, they were not willing to see Titans die in an unfair battle. That was an insult to the entire Titan race!
"But he rejected our offer of help, unless this human gets justice as well."
"Is his brain broken?"
"What are you worried about? Do you think that this person will have that kind of luck? Briesis is not a brainless monster like Troussiyo. Is he a combat master? There is only one outcome for those who dare to call themselves that in front of bone demons. "
When they heard this, a few pairs of eyes landed on the Arena. Their gazes were like a storm that was brewing in the sky, hiding a killing intent that was as calm as water. Yes, if this human died, Tsarilorhuan would naturally give up and allow them to make their arrangements.
Above the golden spectator stands was the star spectator stands that the Arena had prepared for the distinguished guests from level-8 civilizations and above. The Seductresses were playing here and did not care about the life and death battle that was about to begin below. In their eyes, this grand and grand scene was just boring. The Seductresses never cared about others and only lived for their own thoughts.
The reason they had come here seemed to be because of Undine's strong request. However, the main reason was that when they saw how obsessed Undine was with a gladiator, they had the thought of trying out what it was like to be a gladiator. Although they could not look for that human as he would not survive this battle, there would always be other choices that did not seem bad.
Undine knew all of this. She only quietly looked at the Arena. Her peers had forbidden her from seeing that human again, and the condition she had in exchange for this was the alchemist Master who had modified Aiolos's left arm.
They had done it. Thus, Undine kept her promise to them. She did not see him again, but she would attend every competition.
Aiolos had changed a lot. He had become stronger, but Undine knew that this was because he had found his path. Not only had he experienced a few times when he was on the verge of death, but he had also gained true power. This was a powerful strength that was recognized by the divine territory.
In the ring-shaped Arena, Aiolos and the bone demon faced off against each other. From time to time, the fine white sand in the Arena stirred up tiny tornadoes, exposing the collision of auras between the two of them. The bone demon had the upper hand, but this advantage was not enough to form a victory. This caused the rage of the bone demon's fans to soar. They angrily roared! The human had used tricks! He had used methods to make up for his weakness of not having enough strength!
In their eyes, the human's combat techniques in the Arena were like throwing sand into the eyes of a warrior.
The bone demon's supporters angrily roared, "Kill!"
Another small group of Aiolos's fans responded, "Fight!"
The waves of shouts to kill and battle were louder than the last. The short clash of auras caused the bone demon to realize that this tiny human, who was only at the peak of the Foundational Stage, had a spirit that did not match his realm. A sturdy feeling spread over him, causing the bone demon to be slightly surprised. At the same time, he became vigilant. He put away the contempt he had for his opponent, who was only at the peak of the Foundational Stage from a level-4 civilization.
"Your strength is worthy of respect. Thus, I will use all my strength to kill you." Briesis let out an ethereal voice. Bone demons did not have any real vocal organs. Their voices came from the trembling of their souls in the air.
"Same here," Aiolos said. He observed Briesis's bones. The secret of the bone demon's undying body was hidden on these bones. They were a kind of spiritual life. These bones grew out from the depths of their souls, just like how a person's fingernails grew on their fingers. Destroying these bones was like cutting off fingernails. One could not harm their origin. However, this did not mean that bone demons would not die. Instead, it was very difficult to find the weakness that would cause them to die.
"Then, please die."
The bone demon stretched out his hand and pointed. White bone arrows responded and rained down.
Aiolos nimbly dodged and slapped away a few bone arrows that chased after him. He felt his fingers go numb, and massive spiritual power desperately burrowed into his muscles like worms. Most of the time, only spiritual power could resist spiritual power! Just then, Aiolos mobilized his spiritual power and blocked the piercing bone arrows. His heart suddenly palpitated, and he suddenly turned around. A shadow was silently attacking him. It was a massive bone scythe, and the sharp blade of the scythe flashed with the light of a wind spirit. It was a vacuum that blocked all sound and aura, and there was no killing intent.
Unlike grafted monsters like Troussiyer, bone demons were born to fight. They were good at all kinds of combat methods that would kill their enemies. Regardless of whether it was a head-on fight or a sneak attack, a move that could kill their opponent was the best way to fight.
Aiolos's spiritual power enveloped him like a round bell. Not only could he sense his aura, but it was as if he had countless eyes. Aiolos could "see" all attacks that were within three meters of him.
Briesis tilted his head, as if he was surprised by this. However, this was just another of his deceptive actions. Aiolos suddenly leaped up and avoided three terrifying bone spikes that looked like the antlers of a male deer that shot out from the ground.
Briesis took a step forward. At this moment, it could be seen that his feet had pierced into the ground like tree roots. Only heaven knew how many bone spikes and traps he had secretly set underground. He continued to wave his bone arm, and with every finger, white bone arrows chased after Aiolos like a swarm of bees. In every swarm of white bone arrows, there were a few tracking arrows that contained hidden spiritual power. They would change direction at the last moment and attack Aiolos's vital points at strange angles.
Aiolos blocked all the hidden arrows. He could sense them, but his spiritual power was being rapidly consumed as if a dam had burst. Was this a combat race from a level-7 civilization?
This thought flashed through his mind, but he quickly suppressed it. He absolutely could not have a shred of cowardice! On the path of a Combat God, courage came first, wisdom was respected, and power was supplementary. If he did not have the courage to face his opponent head-on, what awaited him would be a collapsing death.
Terrifying combat techniques were displayed on Aiolos's body. Briesis' endless attacks were neutralized by him one after another. His clean and efficient movement techniques and golden fists caused waves of commotion in the entire stadium. They were first shocked by Briesis's attacks and did not dare to make a sound. However, closely after, they were shocked by Aiolos's neutralization techniques and shouted loudly. "Wow!"
In the VIP lounge of Constellation, Undine's heart was beating rapidly. Her fingers dug into the hem of her skirt, and her lips trembled slightly. However, she could not do anything. Aiolos. She could only call out his name in her heart over and over again. Every time she did it, she would be more nervous than the last time.
In the corridor of the Arena, Tsarilorhuan crossed his arms in front of his chest. This was a sign that he was nervous. His lightning-like hair violently swayed, and the impulse to fight surged in his body. His mind was filled with terrifying imaginations. If it was him, his body would probably be riddled with wounds if he faced this kind of attack from the bone demon, right? Of course, the Titan's lightning was something that the bone demon could easily face. However, the problem was … how could Aiolos, who had been defending, win this life and death battle?
Briesis's movements became faster and faster. More and more bone arrows that he shot out contained his spiritual power. His eyes burned with white soul flames as he launched spiritual attacks at Aiolos again and again. This caused the bones on his body to continuously change, and his true form appeared. It was a White Bone Throne!
Massive bone armor and bone helmets that were covered with bone spikes covered the surroundings of the throne, leaving no blind spots. Various bone swords and bone spears were stabbed into the throne, and four bone shields were erected in the four directions of the throne.
"Briesis's invincible form, the undefeatable White Bone Throne!"
His supporters jumped and stood on their seats. They raised their hands high, as if they could send the flames of battle in their bodies to Briesis by doing this.
Even Briesis, who was in his normal state, could not retaliate, let alone his true form after activating the invincible White Bone Throne.
On the White Bone Throne, the soul fluctuations in Briesis's eyes became even more intense. He pulled out the bone sword from the throne and was determined to end this battle quickly.
The rain of bone arrows finally stopped. Aiolos took a deep breath. He knew that the final moment that would decide his life and death had arrived.
However, he did not think that he would definitely lose. Unlike what others saw, he was not purely defending. His spiritual power had been capturing the weak soul signals in the air. If he could not injure Aiolos by cutting off his nails, he would chop off his fingers.
This was the simplest and most convenient method to deal with the bone demon. The problem was how to find the vital points of the bone demon's soul from the massive bone armor.
There were a total of three suspected vital points. Every time the bone demon launched a spiritual attack, a trace of soul fluctuations that could not be detected would leak out from these three spots.
