Chapter 225: Eighth-grade elixir, nine-star puppet

A month later.

In the gravel square, Lin Yuan sat upright on the stone platform in the sky, his eyes fixed on the inside of the medicine cauldron. After nine days of fusion, a small round ball the size of an egg was now suspended in the rising flames of the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron.

This small round ball is the embryonic pill of the Transformation Pill, which is formed by the fusion of the pure medicinal power of eighty-eight kinds of medicinal herbs.

The Transformation Pill, a seventh-level advanced elixir, is one of the rarest elixirs in the Warcraft world. Its grade is slightly inferior to the Supreme Beginning Pill, but it is just as difficult to refine.

Now that the prototype pill has been completed, the most difficult stage in the usual medicine refining process has passed, but this time Lin Yuan did not dare to relax at all. On the contrary, at this moment, his eyes are more solemn and his mind is more focused than usual.

Because, for Zi Yan, he would have to do something more difficult later - upgrade the elixir.

There are three steps in alchemy: refining, melting the elixir, and nourishing.

Among them, refining and melting elixir are closely related to the elixir recipe, and the widely circulated elixir recipes are all the result of thousands of refinements, especially the extremely famous elixir such as the Transformation Pill, which has been improved to the extreme by masters of all generations.

Even Lin Yuan could not improve on these two steps in a short period of time.

For him, the only step of nurturing is where he can make an effort. It is also his area of ​​advantage as he possesses the strange fire and the soul of the spiritual realm.

After the alchemy technique entered the eighth level, the upper and lower limits of the step of nurturing were very different due to the differences in the quality of spiritual energy and flames. The same eighth-level elixir, when refined by different people, would summon different colors of thunderclouds, and the quality of the elixir would vary greatly.

For an eighth-grade alchemist, the level of the elixir is one of the factors that best reflects his or her alchemy skills.

Lin Yuan's eyes flashed, his face suddenly turned red as his hand seals changed, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood, which all shot into the medicine cauldron.

"Blood-inducing, soul-enriching!"

With a light shout, the seal on Lin Yuan's hand suddenly changed, and the green flame in the cauldron actually took on a bit of blood color. As it flowed and swirled, it turned into a green and red flaming lotus, wrapping up the Transformation Pill.

In the center of the lotus, a blood-colored "mist" lingered around the young pill. A large number of spirits gathered towards the young pill and merged into it with the blood mist as the medium.

Under the calcination of the strange fire and the nourishment of spiritual energy, this embryonic pill appears to become more and more round.

At the same time, an energy fluctuation that shocked Lin Yuan was also taking shape, and as time went on, this fluctuation gradually surpassed the fluctuation that an ordinary seventh-grade elixir should have.

“All is well, there is hope!”

Seeing this, Lin Yuan felt a surge of joy in his heart, and became more and more confident that he could upgrade this transformation pill to the eighth grade!
Eliminate distracting thoughts and keep your mind steady.

Immediately, Lin Yuan's hand seals flipped, and a huge amount of soul power rushed out from his brows, all poured into the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron, accurately controlling everything in the cauldron, carefully nourishing the elixir that was gradually taking shape in the cauldron...

On the edge of the gravel square, in an attic.

While practicing the Tianxin Soul Technique, the Little Medical Fairy was also keeping vigilant watch on the surroundings to protect Lin Yuan.

It was unusually quiet below the stone platform.

Zi Yan sat on the steps, chewing a pill in her mouth and looking at the people passing by viciously. In front of her stood a huge sign with the words "Keep Quiet or You'll Be Beaten" written in large letters.

Under the temptation of the transformation pill, she, who was usually very noisy, also took up the work of protecting the law seriously.
-
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, five days had passed.

As time went by, more and more eyes in the inner courtyard were focused on him. This time, the time Lin Yuan spent on refining the elixir was even longer than when he was refining the seventh-grade Zunshi Pill.

Although there are exceptions, in most cases, the time it takes the same person to refine the elixir can reflect the quality of the elixir to a certain extent.

Therefore, everyone has a vague guess in their hearts...

This speculation made everyone, including Elder Huo, look even more excited, waiting to witness the moment of Canaan College's history!
On the stone platform.

At a certain moment, Lin Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged, finally slowly opened his eyes and slowly stood up.

Suddenly, countless eyes suddenly focused on him as if they had teleported. At this moment, his elegant face actually looked a little pale, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were filled with confidence.

Lin Yuan didn't care about everyone's gazes. He stared at the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron. After taking a deep breath, he waved his sleeves lightly... and rose!

"clang--"

A sound of metal and stone swept out from the tripod.

Although there was the obstruction of the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron, there were still huge energy fluctuations that were enough to break through and spread out, forming powerful ripples of power that swept across the area.

The next moment, a huge green beam of light burst out from the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron in front of many shocked gazes, and shot straight into the sky!

The huge beam of light can be clearly seen within a radius of 100 miles.

Within the beam of light, the powerful energy fluctuations that permeated the air horrified all the elders in the inner courtyard, and the students trembled with fear.

Inner courtyard, on a peak in the back mountain.

"This kind of fluctuation... an eighth-grade elixir has appeared!" Yao Lao's figure floated out of the Bone Inflammation Ring, and with a bit of surprise, he looked in the direction of the light column: "Lin Yuan's alchemy skills have indeed broken into the eighth-grade realm. Next, let's see how many colors of elixir thunder he can draw out?"

"Eighth grade?" Xiao Yan murmured, staring fixedly at the end of the light column.

And in the sky at the end of the pillar of light, a strange mist condensed rapidly. After a while, it condensed into a huge thundercloud, and the stagnant pressure poured down!

The students in the inner courtyard now had some understanding in their hearts that Dan Lei today was different from the past, and they might be about to witness something.

Therefore, everyone, especially the alchemists from Canaan College, looked straight at Lin Yuan on the stone platform, at the medicine cauldron in front of him, and at the rolling thunderclouds in the sky with a pilgrimage-like gaze.

Under the gaze of everyone, thunderclouds rolled, and then two colors of blue and silver slowly appeared!

"Blue and silver? This thundercloud is so strange, it actually has two colors!"

"Huh? Thunderclouds also come in multiple colors?"

"You are ignorant, right? My family is in Zhongzhou, so I heard from the elders in the clan that multi-colored thunderclouds are the sign of an eighth-grade elixir! Oh my God, is Elder Lin Yuan really an eighth-grade alchemist? I am not dreaming..."

"I was lucky enough to see the birth of an eighth-grade elixir with my own eyes. It was a great decision to choose Canaan College to study at that time!"

Looking at the color of the thundercloud, there were bursts of exclamations from all parts of Canaan College, and from time to time there were sounds of people sucking in a breath of cold air.

"Wow, it's actually a two-colored thundercloud, an eighth-grade elixir!"

Bai Lie's shocked voice floated in, and a gray shadow flashed, and the figures of the two elders Qianbai suddenly appeared next to Su Qian, Elder Huo and Hu Qian.

"Second Elder, you are here too?"

Seeing the shocked expressions of the two, Su Qian laughed and felt relieved.

"How could I not come for such a big event?" Qianmu shook his head and said in a deep voice, looking at the thick thunderclouds that obscured the sun, he sighed with emotion: "Two-colored lightning... I haven't seen it in decades. It's really spectacular!"

"No, the thunderclouds are still churning, and colors are appearing!" Not long after these exclamations began, Elder Huo looked at the faint color in the thunderclouds and couldn't help but exclaimed.

Hearing this, everyone was suddenly startled and stared at the thunderclouds rolling in the distant sky.

Sure enough, beneath the green and silver colors, a hint of red began to gradually emerge. After a while, the red spread out, dyeing a small part of the thundercloud a light red.

"Three...three-colored thunderclouds, oh my god!"

Looking at the thunderclouds that finally solidified into three colors and slowly stopped rolling, a series of gasps of shock were heard in the inner courtyard.

At this moment, Bai Lie frowned, looking solemnly at the huge three-colored thundercloud. He could feel an extremely huge amount of energy from it. This energy was already gathering momentum and even he was not sure he could take it all.

"Be careful, Dan Lei is coming."

"The power of the eighth-grade pill thunder is quite terrifying! Old man Qian, let's prepare in advance. If anything unexpected happens, we will take action immediately!"

Before he finished speaking, three-colored thunderclouds began to surge violently, and faintly, brilliant thunder crackled across the sky, illuminating the world like day.

"Coming?"

Lin Yuan smiled and looked calmly at the three-colored thunderclouds in the sky. Then he raised his hand lightly, and the ring on his finger flashed slightly. Then a silver-gold figure appeared in front of him. It was the Earth Demon Puppet.

After breaking through the spiritual realm, before refining the elixir for Zi Yan, Lin Yuan first refined two Zunshi Pills.

Therefore, this puppet experienced the baptism of Dan Lei twice, and its strength has jumped from eight-star Dou Zong to nine-star Dou Zong, and a lot of gold has appeared on its body.

At this moment, it is already strong enough to carry the three-colored thunder.

“I wonder if this time’s Dan Lei can allow the Demon Puppet to advance to the level of the Heavenly Demon Puppet?” Thinking of this, a hint of anticipation flashed in Lin Yuan’s eyes, and he chuckled: “Demon Puppet, let this three-color Dan Lei become your nourishment…”

As soon as he finished speaking, the demon puppet followed Lin Yuan's wishes and slowly moved towards the three-colored thundercloud.

As if hearing Lin Yuan's "provocation", the three-colored thunderclouds rolled violently, and low thunder rumbled continuously. Thunderbolts as thick as a foot shuttled through the clouds, and then...

"laugh--"

The thunderclouds suddenly shrank, and a three-colored lightning as thick as a bucket burst out from the clouds, then tore through the space, making a terrible crackling sound, and pounced fiercely on the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron and Lin Yuan.

"go--"

Looking at the pill thunder that finally fell, a smile flashed across Lin Yuan's eyes and he shouted softly.

Upon hearing the order, the demon puppet stomped the air hard, and its body suddenly bounced out and slammed into the powerful thunder, flashing a dazzling light.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"...

Rumbling sounds rang out, and three-colored thunder continuously descended, bombarding the body of the demon puppet in the air, covering the area within ten feet around it in lightning. Such a terrifying sound made people's scalps numb.

The lightning on the surface of the demon puppet turned into countless tiny electric snakes, which continuously seeped into its body.

The power of thunder entered the body, and the demon puppet's bones and flesh were quickly strengthened under this tempering. Strands of dazzling golden color were refined out, and the aura... was also rising step by step.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan felt completely relieved. After being tempered by Dan Lei many times, the demon puppet's adaptability to the thunder element was constantly improving.

"Perhaps, before I refine the ninth-grade elixir, I won't have to worry about the problem of elixir thunder!" With a light laugh, Lin Yuan put his hands lightly behind his back, calmly appreciating the rare "beautiful scenery" in front of him.

The bombardment of the three-colored thunderclouds lasted for a full half hour before gradually stopping.

During this half hour, hundreds of terrifyingly powerful thunders struck out and hit the demon puppet.

Fortunately, these thunders did not cause any damage to the Earth Demon Puppet. Instead, they turned half of the Demon Puppet into gold.

"The peak of Dou Zong? It's not that easy after all." Lin Yuan sensed the demon puppet, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, but soon turned into relief: "After all, Dou Zun and Nine-Star Dou Zong are a natural chasm, it is indeed not that easy to cross."

"If you want the demon puppet to fully advance to a heavenly demon puppet, you will need at least three baptisms of level eight three-color or higher pill thunder."

"We can't rush these, take our time..."

At the same time, the energy fluctuations within the three-colored thunderclouds gradually faded, and the thick thunderclouds slowly dispersed under the gaze of everyone.

As the thunderclouds dispersed, the golden Earth Demon Puppet stepped on the ground, and as the space twisted, it appeared in front of Lin Yuan with a hissing sound, and then stood beside him like the most loyal guard.

"It feels good to be a guard at the peak of Dou Zong!"

Lin Yuan knocked on the demon puppet's head and heard a series of crisp "bang bang" sounds, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

At this moment, a purple rainbow shot out from the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron like lightning. Just as it was about to escape, Lin Yuan clenched his hand and an invisible strong wind bound it tightly.

After the purple light dissipated, a pill filled with a faint spiritual mist was suspended in the air. The faint spiritual mist was lingering outside the pill, and faintly, it condensed into the image of a little purple dragon.

The eighth-grade elixir has its own spirituality and is called a living elixir or a spiritual elixir, which can condense into shape.

Lin Yuan waved his sleeves and casually dispersed the purple dragon shape of the eighth-grade transformation pill. He took it into his palm and put it into a jade bottle to observe it.

Feeling its extraordinary spirituality and sensing the energy of heaven and earth flowing towards it, Lin Yuan nodded with satisfaction.

When the elixir reaches the eighth level, the quality of the energy is no longer the most important thing, and the ultimate thing is spirituality.

The spirituality of the elixir can automatically absorb energy from the heaven and earth to replenish itself. Therefore, spirituality is the most important factor that determines the quality of the eighth-grade elixir. Improving the spirituality of the elixir is the core of the eighth-grade alchemy technique.

There are many factors that can limit the spiritual power of the elixir, including the soul of the alchemist, the flame, the grade of the elixir itself, etc...

What restricted Lin Yuan this time was the grade of the elixir itself.

"Eighth grade, three colors, although it is not my limit, it is already the limit that the Transformation Pill can support. After all, the grade of the Transformation Pill is limited, and the grade that can be upgraded is also limited."

While thinking, Zi Yan also rushed up from the stone steps and landed in front of Lin Yuan.

Looking at Zi Yan who was staring at the Transformation Pill eagerly, Lin Yuan smiled gently and threw the jade bottle containing the Transformation Pill to her.

"Zi Yan, this is the Transformation Pill I promised you!"

Zi Yan hurriedly caught the jade bottle, gave him a coquettish look, and then looked at the pill in her hand happily.

Looking at the happy Zi Yan, Lin Yuan warned seriously: "Don't take this pill rashly."

"This is an eighth-grade elixir. The energy in it is too huge. After taking it, it will definitely help you complete your advancement and advance a few steps in the seventh level. Let me help you regulate your body's energy, and then you can find a good place to retreat and take it!"

"Hehe, I get it, brother!" Zi Yan said happily.
