Shengdan City, a square that only those in the inner area of ​​Danta can step into, seems particularly lively at this moment. The reason is naturally Yao Yan's upcoming assessment. Eighth-grade alchemists are among the top group of people even in Danta, and their number is extremely rare. It is rare to see them on weekdays, let alone watch them making pills.

Being able to watch an eighth-grade alchemist making pills is definitely an opportunity for a sixth-grade or even seventh-grade alchemist. If one can gain some insights from it, it will definitely improve one's alchemy skills to a higher level.

At this moment, quite a few people have gathered in the square. These people are either from Danta or from the five major families.

The ancestor of the Cao family slowly stepped into the square with Cao Ying. After a while, he found an acquaintance. He immediately walked over with a smile and said, "Old Monster Song, you are here too? Why don't you continue your retreat~"

"Come out and move around... Aren't you here too?" The ancestor of the Song family glanced at the ancestor of the Cao family and said lightly.

However, when his eyes fell on Cao Ying, there was a hint of envy in them.

There were also several good alchemist talents in this generation of the Song family, but compared with Cao Ying, these people seemed a little inferior. Whether it was their soul power or their own talent, they were far behind. Even with the help of elixirs, it was difficult for them to catch up with the other party.

Soul power or fighting spirit may be supplemented by elixirs and natural treasures, but alchemy cannot. These can only be achieved by oneself.

"Come and see the child." The ancestor of the Cao family said calmly.

Upon hearing this, the Song family ancestor's eyes flickered and his expression became a little solemn. He did not doubt the news released by Xiaodan Tower. After thinking for a while, he asked tentatively, "I heard that Yao Chen is back too."

"Not really sure." The ancestor of the Cao family said with a smile, with an expression of watching a show. After all, he had no grudges with Yao Chen. On the contrary, the old monster Song in front of him had some grudges with Yao Chen. When he was young, he was taught a lesson by Yao Chen. It was many years ago.

The Song family ancestor snorted coldly and said, "He is lucky to be able to escape from the hands of the Soul Palace."

The ancestor of the Cao family wanted to say something, but he saw that the space in the center of the square suddenly twisted. The next moment, Xuan Kongzi came out with a few people, and everyone's attention was instantly attracted to the young man beside him.

There was no other reason. The other person's appearance and temperament were both excellent, almost reaching a level of perfection, and it was impossible not to pay attention to him.

"What a handsome boy!"

This is almost everyone's consensus.

……

Under the bright sunshine, Yao Yan stood straight beside Xuan Kongzi, his ink-black eyes scanning the surroundings. With his soul power, he could naturally feel the people watching him. There were even many people hiding in the dark and staring at him. The feeling of being watched by everyone was really uncomfortable.

Xuan Kongzi noticed Yao Yan's expression and explained softly, "They are all old guys with nothing to do. They heard about your story and came to watch. As long as you perform well today, you can save a lot of trouble in subduing the Three Thousand Flames in the future."

Yao Yan nodded, and without further ado, he raised his hand and took out the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron from his storage ring.

"Om~"

The huge medicine cauldron rotated in the air for a moment, and then gently fell to the ground without making any sound.

This delicate soul control instantly made many old guys' eyes light up, but soon, shock appeared on their faces, because an incomparably powerful soul power surged out from Yao Yan's brows in an instant, like a tsunami, and the invisible pressure instantly made the chests of those present feel stuffy.

"How can it be?!"

"How old is this kid?!"

Everyone stared at Yao Yan in disbelief, feeling the spiritual pressure that was suffocating them. This was when the other party was not targeting them. If it was a head-on confrontation, they might not even be qualified to resist.

The ancestors of the Cao family and the Song family also had expressions of disbelief on their faces, staring at Yao Yan in horror.

"This is the soul power of the heavenly realm!"

"The future is terrifying!"

The ancestor of the Cao family said with a complicated expression. He thought that Cao Ying's talent was already monstrous enough, but compared with the young man in front of him, the light on Cao Ying dimmed a lot in an instant. With the resources of the Cao family, it is very feasible to train Cao Ying into an eighth-grade alchemist before the age of twenty-two, but it is simply impossible to make her soul power reach the heavenly level.

Yao Yan paid no attention to the noise from the outside world. Once he started to refine the elixir, his attention would be focused and would not be disturbed by external things.

"Pfft~"

The sky-blue flame instantly rose in the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron. The moment the flame burned, the temperature of the entire square rose and even the air became dry. At the same time, many alchemists felt that the flames in their bodies were suppressed.

"Strange fire?!" Everyone instantly understood why this happened, but looking at the flames rising from the medicine cauldron, they were all confused for a moment.

When did the strange fire on the strange fire list become sky blue? !

Immediately afterwards, Yao Yan began his performance. The number of medicinal materials needed to refine the eighth-grade elixir was extremely large. There were nearly a thousand kinds of common medicinal materials that needed to be extracted alone. However, this was obviously not difficult for him at the moment. He raised his hand and took out a large number of medicinal materials and threw them in in an orderly manner. The process was smooth and like a work of art.

As time passed, many seventh-grade alchemists showed obsessed expressions, as if they were deeply immersed in it and entered a process of enlightenment.

By contrast.

The ancestors of the Song family and the Cao family seemed much calmer. Both of them were eighth-grade alchemists. The road ahead had already been determined. They could only learn from others' alchemy techniques but there was no need to learn from them. They just looked at Yao Yan's alchemy techniques in front of them, and they felt a little numb.

Because the soul power and alchemy skills of the young man in front of him are already close to the master level. An eighth-grade alchemy master in his early twenties, what the hell is this!

“The elixir he refined seems to be the Nine Revolutions Immortality Pill… that’s an eighth-grade high-level elixir!” The Song family ancestor said in a somewhat dry voice.

I thought Yao Yan was just refining a low-level eighth-grade pill, but I didn't expect the other party to play such a big game and refine a high-level pill that they all found difficult to refine. As long as this pill is formed, it can at least attract three-color pill thunder, six colors for medium, and nine colors for high, which correspond to different medicinal powers respectively.

"His attainments in fighting spirit are not low. Coupled with the soul power of the heavenly realm and the strange fire, the success rate of refining the Nine-transformation Immortal Pill is not low!" The ancestor of the Cao family said very calmly.

"...Can you tell what kind of strange fire he has?"

"Unrecognizable."

After a long time, the ancestor of the Cao family finally gave an answer. Cao Ying, who was beside the ancestor of the Cao family, had already opened his eyes wide, watching Yao Yan refining the elixir in the distance, and fell into a state of obsession, because the process of the other party refining the elixir was so beautiful, like a very beautiful painting, deeply imprinted in his heart.

Time passed slowly, and seven days soon went by. During these seven days, the number of people in the square not only did not decrease, but increased rapidly at an exponential rate.

In the dark space.

Even some elders who had been in seclusion for many years inside the Small Pill Tower were alarmed. Looking at Yao Yan who was refining the elixir below, they all showed strange expressions: "This little fellow's strange fire is a little special... It seems to have the flavors of several kinds of strange fire."

The eyesight of a Dou Sheng is naturally different from that of ordinary people. Outsiders can only see the special color of the flame, but they can see the essence of the flame.

"Yao Chen once obtained a special technique from an ancient battlefield that could fuse strange fire... I never thought someone could actually master it. It's incredible."

"No wonder Yao Chen chose to join Danta. It seems that he wanted to obtain the Three Thousand Flames for this kid."

"Haha, if this kid is willing to join Danta, I think it's no problem... With this kid's talent, the possibility of him becoming a ninth-grade alchemy master in the future is much higher than that of us old guys."

"Let's wait and see for a while and see what his character is like."

……

Two more days passed, and on this day, the originally clear sky suddenly became gloomy. At the same time, an extremely oppressive pressure from heaven and earth condensed in the air, and thick dark clouds formed a vortex, aiming at Yao Yan in the center of the square.

"Boom~"

Along with a muffled roar, dense thunder power began to appear in the dark clouds, like a silver dragon rolling, raging in the dark clouds with its fangs and claws bared. The terrifying thunder power instantly attracted many people's yearning.

Because the silver lightning power turned red in just a few breaths. As the red lightning rolled, the originally dark clouds also began to turn red. Then, yellow lightning gradually appeared in them, and then green...

In just half an hour, the clouds in the sky turned into six-colored thunderclouds, and the extremely terrifying power of thunder swept across the world.

"...It actually attracted six-colored thunderclouds!"

Looking at the colorful thunderclouds in the sky, where the six-colored thunder power was constantly interweaving, many people present showed piety and enthusiasm. Only the alchemists could know what this meant. Wasn't it their lifelong pursuit to attract this colorful thundercloud? !
"Om~"

Suddenly, the six-colored thundercloud in the sky trembled violently, and the next moment, a purple thunder rose in the six-colored thundercloud, adding another color to the already colorful thundercloud.

"Seven-colored Pill Thunder?" Xuan Kongzi's mouth was a little dry at this matter. He muttered to himself as he looked at the scene in front of him.

Although he knew that Yao Yan's talent was exaggerated enough, he was a little confused when he saw that he had reached such a level in refining an eighth-grade elixir for the first time. This could no longer be described as talent, he was simply the reincarnation of the Emperor of Medicine.

Yao Yan calmly watched the golden elixir spinning in the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron. There were seven faint purple lines on its surface, representing the refining process of the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill. If it stopped at this moment, its final form would be the Seven-Turn Immortal Pill. As for further refining, the possibility of failure would increase infinitely.

He is only 30% sure.

After just a short while, Yao Yan made up his mind and did not continue refining. After all, this pill was prepared for himself, and he did not want to take the chance of failure.

"So be it." Yao Yan closed his eyes and pondered for a while, then formed seals with his hands and began the final process of collecting the pill. At the same time, he did not forget to throw out the Sky Demon Puppet and let it absorb the pill thunder in the sky. Even if it could not absorb it completely, it was enough for it to advance into a real Sky Demon Puppet.

"brush!"

Under the observation of everyone, a silver light flew out from Yao Yan's storage ring, turned into a silver stream of light, and rushed into the seven-colored thundercloud.

"Puppet?!" Many people saw clearly what the silver light was.

Then everyone saw the puppet swimming like a dragon in the seven-colored thunderclouds, its body constantly bombarded by the seven-colored thunder. The thunder force, which was enough to terrify a Dou Zun, was unable to tear the puppet apart. Instead, a golden halo quickly appeared on its body surface, and the originally torn body surface also healed quickly.

This puppet can actually strengthen itself by absorbing the power of thunder!
"Out~"

Yao Yan flicked his finger lightly, and the tightly closed medicine cauldron opened instantly. The golden elixir inside instantly turned into a stream of light and tried to break through the air. The speed was so fast that it even felt like tearing the space apart. However, Yao Yan was prepared. His soul power directly formed a big hand and held it tightly. Even the wisp of consciousness that the golden elixir had just condensed was directly shattered by him.

"boom!"

As the golden elixir came into the world, the seven-colored thunderclouds brewing in the sky also reached their peak at this moment. The terrifying seven-colored lightning pillars directly blasted the Sky Demon Puppet into a stream of light, and it smashed rapidly towards the ground. At the moment when it was about to fall to the ground, it stabilized its body, adjusted its body shape, and stepped heavily on the ground with both feet, causing cracks to appear on the ground.

At this moment, the body of the Heavenly Demon Puppet was emitting a dazzling purple-gold halo, as if it was made of bright metal copper. At the same time, a large amount of thunder power was flowing on its surface, repairing the body that had been torn apart by the thunder power.

"Overload~" Yao Yan determined the state of the Heavenly Demon Puppet in an instant. The thunder power contained in the seven-colored thunderclouds had exceeded the limit that the Heavenly Demon Puppet could absorb. At least for now, it could not continue to absorb any more.

Absorption also requires a process, and it is impossible for the Heavenly Demon Puppet to become fat in one breath.

"Little guy, do you need help?" An old laugh sounded in Yao Yan's ears.

"it is good."

Yao Yan was stunned when he heard this, then nodded in response.

next moment.

A tiny body appeared in the air. Facing the huge seven-colored thundercloud, the old voice just slowly raised his hand, and suddenly an invisible energy palm print directly destroyed a large area of ​​thunderclouds. A palm print appeared above the thunderclouds, and the terrifying residual power directly tore the surrounding thunderclouds into pieces, revealing the blue sky.

The so-called power of heaven and earth is nothing in front of this true strong man.

The bright sunshine shines again.

The old man stood with his hands behind his back, slowly floating down, and stood steadily in front of Yao Yan. He seemed to be very satisfied with Yao Yan. He did not give others a chance to speak, and directly took Yao Yan away from the spot. (End of this chapter)
