After a few minutes, the elixir was formed and slowly fell into the cauldron. The heavenly fire was still burning.
The basic steps and work of refining the elixir were completed. Next, it was time to see how much lightning the elixir could absorb. The more lightning it absorbed, the more powerful it would be and the higher its grade. If it absorbed less lightning, it meant that the grade of the elixir was not high.
"What a fast refining speed."
"As expected of the head of the Zhang Clan and the number one alchemist."
"I wonder how many lightning bolts his elixir can absorb."
Everyone watched the head of the Zhang Clan refine the elixir and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration and shock. This was a deep respect for an alchemist.
Lan Xingmeng, Lan Jiaoye, and the three heads of the Lan Clan were slightly nervous. They were worried for Xiao Yang. The stronger the head of the Zhang Clan acted, the more dangerous Xiao Yang's situation would be.
Seeing that Xiao Yang still hadn't made a move, the worry on their faces increased.
Boom boom boom.
At this moment, the originally clear sky was suddenly filled with countless dark clouds. In an instant, they enveloped this part of the world. Thunder and lightning swam in the dark clouds, making rumbling sounds.
The heavy dark clouds gave people a soul-stirring feeling. It was as if the entire sky was about to collapse. It made people feel heavy.
Almost the entire Martial Yang City was plunged into darkness. Many citizens of Martial Yang City were puzzled. Why did the weather suddenly change?
Boom.
A bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, lighting up half of the sky. It was deafening and shocking.
The place where the lightning struck was the cauldron that the head of the Zhang Clan was refining.
After the lightning struck, the elixir in the cauldron suddenly floated in mid-air. The head of the Zhang Clan wanted to use the thumb-sized elixir to withstand the power of the lightning.
In the words of the crowd, this was like hitting a rock with an egg. Everyone knew the power of lightning. Even Martial Arts Grandmasters were afraid of it and didn't dare to touch it forcefully, let alone a mere elixir.
This elixir would probably be smashed into pieces.
However, the reality was very different from what the crowd thought. The moment the lightning touched the elixir, it was instantly absorbed by the elixir.
After absorbing the lightning, there was an additional mark on the elixir.
"Hua."
When everyone saw this scene, they couldn't help but be shocked once more. They felt that this was too inconceivable. The lightning that even almighty experts feared had actually been absorbed by this pill. The Lightning Pill, as its name implied, was truly worthy of being called the Lightning Pill.
Boom! Boom!
An even louder sound rang out, as if the absorption of the lightning bolt had angered the heavens. An even more powerful bolt of lightning struck down. This time, it was not just one bolt of lightning, but three. Furthermore, the power of each bolt of lightning was several times stronger than the previous one.
Even the Patriarch of the Zhang family had to be cautious. His expression was solemn as he tried his best to control the Heaven Fire and the pills. He even released his own cultivation.
Rumble!
Three bolts of lightning struck the Thunder Pellet. After absorbing two more bolts of lightning, the Thunder Pellet seemed to have reached its limit and was unable to absorb any more. However, the third bolt of lightning still struck the Thunder Pellet.
Suddenly, the Thunder Pellet shook violently. Even the Heaven Fire was shaking at that moment. Cold sweat broke out on the Patriarch of the Zhang family's forehead. The cultivation that he sent out was quickly draining away. He didn't want the Thunder Pellet to absorb it and use it to block the last bolt of lightning.
Once it couldn't block it, the Thunder Pellet would explode, symbolizing the failure of the alchemy.
Everyone was shocked to see this. One had to know that the Thunder Pellet's power was extraordinary. Especially after absorbing three bolts of lightning. If it exploded here, it could almost destroy the entire Zhang family.
This tense and torturous time lasted for a few minutes. The Patriarch of the Zhang family didn't dare to let down his guard. He was fully alert and didn't hesitate to use up all of his cultivation.
After a few minutes, the last bolt of lightning slowly dissipated.
The patriarch of the Zhang Clan seemed to have run out of food and ammunition. His entire body was extremely weak, his face was pale, and he almost couldn't stand still. He held on to his last breath and waved his hand, directly taking away the medicinal pills.
When the elixir was taken away, the dark clouds in the sky slowly dissipated, and the clear sky was restored.
The Patriarch of the Zhang family also let out a sigh of relief. He really went too far just now. It was so dangerous. Fortunately, the elixir was successfully refined. He believed that this time, Xiao Yang would have nothing to say. He also believed that Xiao Yang would shrink back and admit defeat when he saw such a dangerous alchemy.
He was a little proud and excited.
"Xiao Yang, how is it? Do you want to see the grade of my elixir?"
The Patriarch of the Zhang family was very proud. He took out the Thunder Pellet that he just refined. There was already a crack on it, and it was faintly about to collapse.
This was the highest grade elixir that he had refined in many years. It was also the most outstanding one.
He believed that no alchemist in the two cities could surpass him. He hoped that Xiao Yang would know the difficulty and retreat.
"No, it's a Black Level Upper Grade Thunder Pellet. There's nothing to see."
Xiao Yang said lightly. From what he saw just now, he already knew the grade of this elixir. There was no difference whether he looked at it or not.
Besides, he didn't put this elixir in his eyes at all. At his current cultivation level, he could refine an even more outstanding Thunder Pellet.
However, when his words fell into the ears of the Patriarch of the Zhang family, the Patriarch of the Zhang family thought that he was arrogant.
This made the Patriarch of the Zhang family a little depressed and speechless. The elixir that he refined with great difficulty was actually nothing to see in Xiao Yang's eyes. He couldn't help but secretly snort. He thought to himself, "You're bragging a lot. You actually ignored a Black Level Upper Grade Elixir. I really don't know whether to call you arrogant or stupid."
Anyone with a little bit of common sense would express admiration and shock towards a Black Level Upper Grade Elixir. No one would say 'there's nothing to see'. Just look at the many onlookers around. Which one of them wasn't shocked and had admiration in their eyes?
Of course, the Patriarch of the Zhang family wouldn't say out the complaints in his heart. He chuckled and looked at Zhang Tianyi, "Then I'll wait and see. I believe that Xiao Yang will definitely refine a Thunder Pellet of a higher grade than mine."
In fact, he originally wanted to let Xiao Yang take the initiative to admit defeat. He took out the elixir that he had refined with great difficulty. He hoped that Xiao Yang would understand and not court death. Alchemy wasn't child's play. If he wasn't careful, he would lose his life.
However, Xiao Yang didn't pay attention to his good intentions and deterrence, so he could only ridicule him.
In his opinion, in these two cities, there was no one who could refine a higher grade elixir than his.
