Inner Demon
A Ninth Grade Alchemist, in everyone's memories, had not appeared for who knows how many years.
But now, the entire Southern Desert Region was witnessing the birth of a Grade Nine Alchemist.
In the sky, the colorful clouds were rolling. Among them, there were faint silhouettes of dragons, tigers leaping, and the sun, moon, and stars rising in the east and setting in the west.
All kinds of strange phenomena appeared. Usually, this was a rare sight and there would be people observing and recording it.
But now, no one cared.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the place where the eight rays of light had shot up into the sky. Their hearts were in their throats, and they could not take their eyes off it. They did not even blink their eyes.
They were afraid that they would miss the ninth ray of light if they were not careful.
Even though they knew that the ninth ray of light might not appear, even if it did, it would not appear so soon.
Because only a few minutes had passed since Gu Xuan had refined the Grade Eight Heaven Pill.
"Master Gongsun, do you think Gu Xuan will succeed?" A Grade Seven Alchemist asked carefully.
Gongsun Shan Shan's attitude towards Alchemists was much better than other martial artists.
He immediately shook his head and said, "It will be difficult! Elixirs are divided into nine grades. Above Grade Six, it is extremely difficult to improve the quality of elixirs. The difference between a Grade Eight Heaven Pill and a Grade Nine Heaven Pill is like the difference between heaven and earth. It is even more difficult than going from a One Star Martial Emperor to a Great Emperor. "
"You mean Gu Xuan will definitely fail?" The Grade Seven Alchemist asked.
Gongsun Shan Shan pondered for a moment and said, "I'm afraid so. Grade Nine Heaven Pill is also known as Grade Nine Supreme Elixir. Heaven Refining Elixir does not differentiate between medicinal properties. It seems to reduce the difficulty, but it focuses on comprehension. A kite without a string will never fly higher than a kite with a string. That is the reason. "
Amidst the rays of light, Gu Xuan's hands kept forming seals, forming runes and sending them into the Heaven Repairing Cauldron.
When he was a Grade Seven Alchemist, he could easily refine Grade Eight Elixirs. Because of that, he dared to attract the Heavenly Way to mend the heaven and become an Alchemy Emperor.
To an alchemist, becoming an Alchemy Emperor was a supreme honor. It was also Gu Xuan's ultimate weapon for daring to challenge the Dao Gate.
In fact, Gu Xuan had been preparing for all of this in his previous life. However, he only felt that he had a 30% chance of success when he entered the Burial Deathland.
Thirty percent seemed low, but for someone who dared to mend the Heavenly Imperfection, it was already considered extremely high.
At this moment, Gu Xuan had reached a bottleneck.
The Grade-9 Heaven Elixir had already started to take shape in the Heaven Repairing Cauldron. However, he had a feeling that something was missing.
This kind of feeling was similar to the mysterious membrane that appeared when one was about to break through to the next realm in martial arts cultivation. It was clearly close at hand, but it was also far away.
In a trance, Gu Xuan only felt the environment around him change. He was situated in a vast expanse of chaos.
Rumble!
Thunder rumbled.
"Hahaha!" A maniacal laugh emerged from the chaos.
"Gu Xuan! We meet again! A hundred years ago, I killed you once. I didn't expect your soul to be reborn. Today, I'll kill you again. I'll destroy your soul so that you can never reincarnate! "
The person who came was Gu Xuan's eldest disciple, Gu Xingyun!
Gu Xingyun looked down at Gu Xuan like a god looking down at an ant.
When Gu Xuan saw Gu Xingyun, his whole body trembled. He was furious. He treated Gu Xingyun like his son and taught him everything he knew.
In the end, Gu Xingyun repaid his kindness with ingratitude and killed him!
This hatred was absolutely irreconcilable!
The God Destroying Bone Spear was raised high and a dazzling light bloomed!
"Today, I'll kill you!"
Gu Xuan's eyes were red and murderous.
In the seven-colored light, Gu Xuan's eyes turned crimson.
The light began to tremble.
In the Heaven Repairing Cauldron, the Grade-8 Heaven Elixir kept moving left and right, trying to rush out.
In the distance, many people noticed this change.
"What's going on? Gu Xuan's condition doesn't seem right. Is he going to fail?"
Everyone was discussing.
Gongsun Shan Shan looked solemn. He was probably the only one who knew what kind of situation Gu Xuan was in.
"When a Peak Martial Emperor enters the Emperor Realm, there will be a Heavenly Tribulation. Although Gu Xuan didn't go through a Heavenly Tribulation to mend the Heaven Defect, there's a more terrifying tribulation. That's the Inner Demon Tribulation! "
The Inner Demon Tribulation was a test of one's soul and will. The stronger the soul power, the stronger the will, and the easier it was to see through the Inner Demon.
"Logically speaking, since Gu Xuan dared to mend the Heaven Defect, he should have been prepared. With his strong soul power and strong will, he shouldn't have been confused by the Inner Demon."
Gongsun Shan Shan shook his head and couldn't bear to continue watching. Gu Xuan's murderous aura showed that he didn't see through the Inner Demon Tribulation.
Once he was entangled with the Inner Demon, he would only sink deeper and deeper. It would be impossible for him to wake up.
"Mend the Heaven Defect failed." Gongsun Shan Shan sighed heavily.
"He dared to mend the Heaven Defect. This kid is too arrogant. Failure is inevitable. The current overlord of alchemy is only Grandmaster Gongsun who can mend the Heaven Defect. "
The surrounding people started to flatter Gongsun Shan Shan.
Gongsun Shan Shan snorted coldly and ignored the crowd.
At this moment, at the core of Dongze Region, Dao Sect.
On an island hidden in the sea of clouds, there were several people standing on the top of a big hall.
In the void in front of them, there was a mirror. The scene in the mirror was exactly what happened when Gu Xuan was concocting the Heavenly Dan.
"Dao Sect is indeed worthy of its name. It can even do something to mend the Heaven Defect. How horrible it is to be an enemy of Dao Sect! When I become a great sovereign in the future, I hope Dao Sect won't give me a hard time by messing with the Heavenly Tribulation. "
A white-haired young man said with a cold smile on his face.
"Haha. Crown Prince of Chen, you must be joking. There was a misunderstanding between you and Xuan Sect. But the misunderstanding has been solved. Besides, your Tianchen Kingdom is no weaker than Dao Sect. Why should you be afraid of us messing with the Heavenly Tribulation? "
A tall and slender old man in a green robe smiled faintly.
If Gu Xuan was here, he would definitely recognize these two men.
The Crown Prince of Chen was the one who fought with Gu Xuan for the three treasures in Xuan Sect.
The slim old man was one of the ten most powerful elders in Dao Sect, Mortal Daoist!
Astro Sovereign said fiercely, "This man covered his face. He thought I wouldn't be able to find him in this way. What a pity. He was too careless after all. He actually dared to use the Heavenly Cauldron in broad daylight. We can easily find him if we help Dao Sect! It is too easy for him to be controlled by the Heart Demon. "
Mortal Daoist looked at the mirror and killing intent flashed in his eyes.
"I didn't expect Gu Xuan to be the Pill King Gu Xuan. He will become a great enemy of Dao Sect for that woman. We can't let him become the Pill King. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles!
The Inner Demon that caused him to fall into the Inner Demon Tribulation was something that our Dao Sect paid a huge price to send under the nose of the Heavenly Dao.
However, as long as we can control him and make him work for Dao Sect, it will be worth it. A Grade Eight Alchemy Grandmaster! Dao Sect needs such a genius! Haha! "
