"Boom!"
Not long after, from the dense forest where Lin Feng was located, a thunderous explosion suddenly echoed. That roar, like thunder rolling through the skies, instantly frightened all the beasts and birds within several kilometers, sending them fleeing in panic.
In an instant, the once peaceful forest became chaotic because of Lin Feng.
Immediately after, the lid of a cauldron shot out like a black shadow, soaring rapidly up into the sky. From within the cauldron, thick black smoke followed closely after, curling upward as it poured out.
In the blink of an eye, it surged dozens of meters high into the air. As for that cauldron lid which had flown into the sky, it soon succumbed to gravity, falling heavily back down into the forest.
"Bang!"
With another loud explosion echoing from within the dense trees, the spot where the lid crashed instantly formed a several-meter-wide crater.
"Cough, cough, failed again… I've been at this for nearly a month, and still haven't succeeded even once. As expected, refining an eighth-tier pill really isn't easy!"
At that moment, a disheveled figure stepped out from the cloud of black smoke, patting the dust from his clothes while cursing under his breath.
Upon a closer look, it was none other than Lin Feng, who had just been refining the pill. However, at this moment, his entire face was blackened, covered in soot, and he looked utterly miserable.
"Brother Lin Feng, are you alright?"
Once the air around them had calmed a bit, Dan Chen quickly flapped her Dou Qi wings and flew forward, her small face filled with worry. As she spoke, she pulled a handkerchief from the front of her collar and gently wiped the ash from Lin Feng's face.
"I'm fine, an explosion of this level can't hurt me."
Lin Feng sniffed the faint milky fragrance left on the handkerchief and patted his chest as he replied.
A few days ago, he had used the Rank 8 gold-attributed Magic Core he bought from the Pill Tower trading market, together with the two cores given by Cao Ying, to temper his body once again. Now, the strength of his physique was enough to contend with some Dou Zun experts.
An explosion of this degree indeed couldn't threaten his life. At most, it just made him look a bit pathetic. After Dan Chen helped wipe his face clean, Lin Feng turned to her and said, "Dan Chen, little sister, step back for now, I'm going to try again."
"Alright."
Dan Chen knew well that staying nearby would only distract him. So after nodding gently, she once again flapped her Dou Qi wings and flew off to the distance.
"Damn it, I've already reached the Spirit Realm with my soul power, I refuse to believe I can't refine an eighth-tier pill!"
After she had gone far enough, Lin Feng looked at the mess around him, gritted his teeth, and then stretched out his hand.
A powerful suction force erupted, and in an instant, the cauldron lid lying in the forest was drawn back into his grasp. He then flicked his wrist, tossing the lid back onto the cauldron. Next, with a swipe of his hand over his storage ring, he skillfully took out hundreds of different medicinal ingredients.
After preparing everything, he turned his palm, and the Green Lotus Core Flame rose slowly from his palm in a wisp of azure fire. With a flick, the green flame streaked across the air and dropped straight into the cauldron.
As the Heavenly Flame entered, Lin Feng immediately increased his Dou Qi output. The once gentle Green Lotus Core Flame suddenly expanded, in an instant filling the entire cauldron.
At the same time, the temperature within grew even more scorching. Seeing that the timing was right, Lin Feng immediately controlled the rare ingredients — each radiating a rich herbal fragrance — to enter the invisible flames one after another.
Time slipped by like sand through his fingers, and in the blink of an eye, nearly ten days had passed once more. Inside the cauldron before him, a multicolored liquid mass had once again taken form, radiating surging energy ripples.
At this moment, Lin Feng was fully focused, carefully controlling the flames within the cauldron, terrified that a single mistake could destroy the nearly perfected medicinal liquid.
"Clang!"
As the morning sunlight of the second day spilled across the earth, a metallic chime like the ringing of a great bell suddenly came from within the gray cauldron.
At the same time, within the flames surging inside the cauldron. A light-blue liquid, about the size of a human head, perfectly round and crystal clear, was quietly suspended in midair.
Seeing that the medicinal liquid had fully merged without flaw, Lin Feng finally let out a long breath of relief. On his slightly tired face, a flicker of excitement suddenly appeared.
He immediately followed the instructions recorded in the pill formula, adjusting the temperature of the Green Lotus Core Flame, keeping it precisely at the most suitable heat for forming the infant pill.
The most difficult stage had already passed — now, as long as he could roast this liquid mass into a nascent pill embryo, and after nurturing it for a period of time, he would be able to refine a true eighth-tier pill!
"My first eighth-tier pill… as long as I complete the Spirit Infusion, it'll be done!"
After two full days of refinement, the liquid within the gray cauldron before him had completely disappeared. Only a thumb-sized, light-blue, round bead remained, gently spinning within the blazing azure flames.
At this moment, Lin Feng's gaze was locked firmly on the interior of the cauldron ahead. His hands were constantly forming seals, one after another in rapid succession.
A vast and boundless soul power continuously poured into the cauldron, and faint traces of spiritual aura spread through it.
"Boom!"
As the pill within the cauldron absorbed enough spiritual energy, a dazzling brilliance suddenly erupted before Lin Feng. It was like a blazing sun bursting out from the cauldron, shooting straight into the heavens!
"Clang! Clang!"
At the same time, terrifying energy ripples formed out of thin air, violently colliding against the inner walls of the cauldron again and again.
However, since this cauldron had once belonged to a six-colored eighth-tier alchemist, its quality was exceptional. So even though those energy waves were powerful enough to easily obliterate a Dou Zong expert, the gray cauldron still stood unmoving and steady as a mountain!
"That's… the fluctuation of a low-grade eighth-tier pill taking form."
The pillar of energy shooting skyward instantly drew the attention of several strong individuals from the Small Pill Tower nearby. When they saw that wave of energy, they began speculating who it could belong to.
However, in their memories, they couldn't recall any alchemist within the Small Pill Tower who was only of that level, yet capable of producing such a fluctuation. That pillar of light didn't last long before it gradually faded and finally vanished completely.
At the same time, the sky above — which had not yet fully calmed — suddenly began to churn again with thick clouds. In just a few blinks of an eye, an enormous thundercloud nearly a hundred meters wide had formed!
What thrilled Lin Feng the most was that this thundercloud…actually contained two perfectly distinct colors — azure and silver! That meant the pill he refined this time was at least a Two-Colored Pill!
From afar, Dan Chen, who saw the thundercloud in the sky, instantly cheered with delight, "That's great! It's a Two-Colored Pill Lightning, Brother Lin Feng succeeded!"
In her heart, aside from her closest family members, Lin Feng was the person who treated her the best. So she was genuinely happy — from the bottom of her heart — for Lin Feng's success.
