"Two-colored thunderclouds… that can't be one of those old fellows refining pills, right? Could it be that Lin Feng—the one who recently caused such a stir after his soul power advanced to the Spirit Realm?"
Gazing at the azure and silver thunderclouds swirling in the distant sky, several experts of the Small Pill Tower began murmuring among themselves in speculation. After all, aside from Lin Feng, there was no one else in the entire Small Pill Tower who met such qualifications.
"This eighth-tier pill really is extraordinary."
Lin Feng looked up at the two-colored thunderclouds coiling across the heavens, each strand of lightning carrying an overwhelming might that filled the sky, and he couldn't help but sigh in awe.
Compared to this thundercloud, the ones produced when he refined peak seventh-tier before were utterly insignificant. Just as his words fell, the thunderclouds above began to churn once more.
Moment later, beneath the intertwining azure and silver flashes—a faint streak of crimson lightning began to surface slowly from within the dense black clouds!
"Could it be…? I've summoned a Three-Colored Thundercloud this time?!"
Seeing that trace of red lightning, Lin Feng's expression first froze in disbelief, then instantly turned into unrestrained joy!
Meanwhile, Dan Chen in the distance, along with several of the Small Pill Tower's experts, also showed great shock on their faces. None of them could have imagined that Lin Feng, on his first successful attempt at refining an eighth-tier pill, would actually summon a Three-Colored Pill Lightning!
"No… look carefully. That third strand of Pill Lightning appeared far too late—obviously a sign of insufficient follow-through. Lin Feng's third Pill Lightning won't be perfect."
The seasoned experts of the Small Pill Tower observed the skies, then calmly gave their assessments.
Every elder who could reside here had already lived for centuries. If they piled up all the pills they'd refined over their lifetimes, it would form a small mountain. So, with their deep experience, they quickly discerned the precise quality of Lin Feng's pill.
Meanwhile, above Lin Feng, the Three-Colored Thunderclouds continued to roll and surge violently. The low, oppressive rumble of thunder grew louder and more frequent. Bolts of lightning as thick as a man's thigh streaked wildly through the clouds.
However, the crimson Pill Lightning's color remained faint, its density never increasing—it was clearly weaker than the other two.
"Sigh, looks like this time, I still can't produce a perfect three-colored eighth-tier Pill."
Lin Feng sighed in slight disappointment as he gazed at the still-fragile third strand of Pill Lightning.
When that red lightning first appeared, he had thought his first attempt at refining an eighth-tier pill would perfectly draw out all three bolts. But now it seemed the Three-Colored Pill Lightning could only be considered a partial success.
"No big deal. For a first attempt at refining an eighth-tier pill, this result is already incredible."
He consoled himself silently, then lightly brushed his storage ring.
A moment later, a golden figure appeared before him—it was a Sky Demon Puppet. However, unlike his previous beast-shaped puppets, this one was a tall, burly humanoid figure.
Upon closer inspection, one could notice that its physique was quite similar to that of the Earth Force Sect Master. Indeed, this Sky Demon Puppet had been refined from the corpse of that very sect master.
Lin Feng had even given it a name—Di Gang.
As for the puppet's magic core, it came from the Rank 8 Magic Cores he had purchased earlier from the Pill Tower trading market. Moreover, he had also refined the corpses of Ouyang Jie and the Second Elder of the Qing Mu Mansion—whom he now named Qing Mu—into Sky Demon Puppets as well.
In terms of strength, since Di Gang had the weakest cultivation before his death, even after being fitted with a Three-Star Dou Zun-level Magic Core, his final strength only barely reached the Two-Star Dou Zun level.
As for Ouyang Jie and Qing Mu, their refined forms both reached the peak Two-Star Dou Zun level. Of course, he also refined three additional Dou Zong-level Earth Demon Puppets as backup.
"Boom!"
The thunderclouds rolling across the sky suddenly flared with blinding light, and in the next instant, a three-colored bolt of lightning shot out from the clouds like a massive python.
It tore through the air, ripping open space itself with a terrifying crackling sound, and streaked straight toward Lin Feng's position below.
"Brother Lin Feng, be careful! If it's too dangerous, just give up on that pill! We can refine it again next time!"
Watching the raging lightning that made her heart tremble in fear, Dan Chen shouted anxiously.
"Alright, I got it!"
Hearing the concern in Dan Chen's voice, Lin Feng waved his hand toward her, signaling that he understood.
"Whoosh~"
At that moment, several powerhouses from the Small Pill Tower also arrived at the scene. When they saw Lin Feng's reaction, many of them couldn't help but be moved.
Dan Chen was one of the most outstanding young talents in the Small Pill Tower. Naturally, they all recognized her. But this girl, who normally spoke softly and gently, was now shouting so anxiously out of concern — it was the first time they'd ever seen her like this.
"That old fellow Dan really has sharp eyes, huh? He discovered such a genius earlier than any of us!"
Those experts assumed it was the Dan Clan's ancestor who had recognized Lin Feng's talent and intentionally paired the two together. As a result, everyone present couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
"Go!"
Gazing up at the oncoming Pill Lightning, Lin Feng smiled confidently, pointed his finger at the void, and let out a soft command. The instant his voice fell, the Sky Demon Puppet beside him stomped hard on the ground.
With immense force, it shot straight up into the sky. Under the astonished gazes of everyone around, the puppet rammed head-on into the powerful lightning bolt.
Very soon, the sharp-eyed elders noticed that under the torrential storm of lightning — power comparable to an attack from a Dou Zun expert —not only was the Sky Demon Puppet completely unscathed, but its aura was actually growing stronger.
"This puppet… can actually absorb the power of lightning to evolve?!"
Seeing the increasingly radiant Sky Demon Puppet, even the powerhouses of the Small Pill Tower couldn't hide their shock — their pupils contracted sharply.
Such a strange puppet was something only a very small number of them had ever seen. As for someone who could own a puppet like this — apart from Lin Feng before them, there wasn't a single one in the entire Small Pill Tower.
"No wonder that guy's so confident. He didn't even ask Elder Zhong to guard him — turns out he has such a bizarre puppet."
Everyone looked at the puppet with unconcealed envy.
Even for them, refining a pill meant dealing with troublesome Pill Lightning. But Lin Feng had solved the issue effortlessly — not only that, he even saved himself the money it would take to hire a protector.
Just as one of them finished speaking, another Elder said regretfully, "I once saw such puppets long ago, inside an ancient ruin. Unfortunately, those puppets served as the guardians of a Dou Sheng expert's relics. During the fight for the treasures back then, they were all destroyed."
"Boom! Boom!"
At this moment, the dazzling three-colored Pill Lightning raged across the heavens like a roaring dragon, wildly thrashing about.
Brilliant arcs of lightning danced, sweeping across the sky in a furious storm, before fiercely striking down upon the Sky Demon Puppet floating in midair.
