At this mont, Fa Ma suddenly realized sothing and quickly raised his head to look at the sky. Because the mist originally had a slight white tint, everyone had subconsciously assud that Xiao Yan's dicinal mist was tri-colored.
However, upon closer inspection, Fa Ma discovered that the white color wasn't just mist-it was an actual, distinct color! This was a four-colored dicinal cloud, aning Xiao Yan had employed four different kinds of flas!!!!
Hai Bodong's eyes narrowed in the VIP seating area as he recalled how cautious Xiao Yan had been at the beginning of his pill refinent.
"This brat! No wonder he was being so ticulous. He'd planned to refine a tier 5 dicinal pill from the very start!"
Although Hai Bodong hadn't known Xiao Yan for very long, he was well aware that while this fellow appeared humble and unassuming on the outside, he was actually extrely confident and audacious on the inside. Given that Xiao Yan was already just a hair's breadth away from becoming a 5th-tier alchemist, why would he be so cautious when refining a tier 4 pill?
It turned out he had been aiming to refine a tier 5 dicinal pill all along!
Princess Yao Ye's eyes flickered with a solemn expression as she said, "To think he still sought to surpass himself in such an environnt. He's truly a monster."
Ya Fei covered her mouth with both hands, her eyes glistening with excitent to the point of tears. It was as if she were happier than Xiao Yan himself at his successful refinent of a tier 5 dicinal pill.
Nalan Yanran clenched her fists tightly. She finally understood why Xiao Yan could beco so powerful. It was because he constantly pushed his limits and battled against himself at all tis. Only by continually challenging oneself could one keep growing stronger!
Xiao Yan glanced at Yan Li, whose legs had gone weak and was now trembling uncontrollably on the ground. With a smile, he said, "I believe everyone is clear about the tier of this dicinal pill. There's no need for further discussion. As for the claim that I didn't refine it myself, that's even more absurd. The Four Lines White Spirit Pill is a pill I created by slightly modifying the Three Lines Green Spirit Pill recipe. There are only these two pills in the entire world!"
No one dared to raise any further doubts upon hearing these words. There was simply no reason to question him.
Xiao Yan explained, "The Four Lines White Spirit Pill, like the Three Lines Green Spirit Pill, has the effect of increasing the strength of a Dou Grandmaster. It can increase strength by three stars, just like the Three Lines Green Spirit Pill. However, it does so with a 100% success rate and without any side effects."
Hisssss!!! Everyone gasped in astonishnt upon hearing this.
Being able to directly increase one's strength by three stars without any risk or side effects! A single pill could save several years of arduous cultivation!
"And moreover..."
"There's more?!!!"
Xiao Yan turned to look at the Little Princess who had cried out in surprise and said with a smile, "If it only increased strength by three stars without any side effects, it wouldn't really be worthy of being classified as a tier 5 pill, now would it?"
The Little Princess swallowed hard as she suddenly realized this wasn't just about adding one more pill line. It had actually reached the level of a tier 5 dicinal pill!
"If an 8-star Dou Grandmaster uses it, there will be side effects. It will only increase their strength by two stars." Xiao Yan grinned and held up two fingers.
Everyone was montarily stunned. Why did it beco two stars? But soon, those with quick minds widened their eyes in realization.
"Wait! An 8-star Dou Grandmaster gaining two stars... that's a Dou Spirit!!!"
"If an 8-star Dou Grandmaster consus it, they can directly break through to the Dou Spirit realm!!!"
Even Fa Ma's eyes widened as he stared at the wooden box. Increasing strength and breaking through a realm!!!
Although it seed like losing a 1-star increase, pills that could assist in realm breakthroughs were incredibly precious!
One must know that the Spirit Ascending Pill, a tier 5 pill that could allow a 9-star Dou Grandmaster to break through to the Dou Spirit realm with a 100% success rate, was considered a low tier 5 pill! Even though it was at the lower end of tier 5, it was still a tier 5 pill nonetheless!
By this line of reasoning, the Four Lines White Spirit Pill could be confidently placed at the very least in the category of a peak low-grade tier 5 or even a middle-grade tier 5 dicinal pill!
Xiao Yan smiled faintly. In truth, the ability to aid in breaking through to the Dou Spirit realm wasn't an inherent effect of the Four Lines White Spirit Pill itself, but rather stemd from the power of Heavenly Flas.
An ordinary Four Lines White Spirit Pill wouldn't possess this effect. However, if four kinds of flas, all being Heavenly Flas, were used during refinent, the pill would gain this additional breakthrough-aiding property.
Fa Ma stared at Xiao Yan in astonishnt, montarily at a loss for words. Finally, he managed to squeeze out a few words through clenched teeth, "You modified the pill recipe in just one night?"
He was acutely aware that Xiao Yan had only obtained the Three Lines Green Spirit Pill recipe the previous night.
In the span of a single night, Xiao Yan had transford the peak tier 4 Three Lines Green Spirit Pill recipe into a tier 5 one!
To Fa Ma, this achievent was even more shocking than Xiao Yan successfully refining a tier 5 pill at the tender age of eighteen!
An average person might spend the whole night just trying to understand the recipe!
Xiao Yan simply smiled and didn't tell Fa Ma that he was extrely familiar with the alchemy thod used in the Three Lines Green Spirit Pill.
He wasn't sure about the relationship between the mysterious elder Fa Ma ntioned and the owner of his storage ring, or whether they were, in fact, one and the sa person. However, he knew with certainty that the alchemy thod Fa Ma had utilized to create the Three Lines Green Spirit Pill shared the sa roots as those he had learned from the ring. However, what Fa Ma possessed was rely scattered fragnts and pieces of fringe knowledge, while he had learned the complete set and inherited the full legacy.
So, last night, he modified the Three Lines Green Spirit Pill's alchemy thod. He didn't simply change it from alternating between the flas to using all the flas simultaneously. He had even gone so far as to slightly alter the dicinal ingredients themselves, adding two types of tier 5 dicinal ingredients into the mix.
This was the reason why the base color of the dicinal pill had turned white and why he had been so cautious and ticulous when refining the ingredients.
There were indeed three complete sets of ingredients for the original Three Lines Green Spirit Pill, but he only possessed a single set of the two newly added tier 5 ingredients.
If he had failed even once in the refinent process, it would have been the end. Xiao Yan was just that ambitious. He had already been just a step away from reaching tier 5. As long as he could successfully refine a tier 5 dicinal pill once, everything would fall into place, and reaching tier 5 would naturally follow, like a river flowing into the sea. Moreover, the modified Four Lines White Spirit Pill was particularly suitable for him to refine. It was the most fitting among all the tier 5 pill recipes he possessed. So he decided to take a big gamble and, in the finals of the Alchemist Grand eting, utterly crushed Yan Li with an
invincible stance.
He achieved an indisputable, undeniable victory.
No matter how many excuses Yan Li made, they all paled in comparison to those four words 'tier 5 dicinal pill'. He couldn't even find any semblance of an excuse to cling to anymore.
Yan Li collapsed to the ground. His entire body went limp, his spirit was broken, and his eyes were vacant and lifeless. He had already understood the grim fate that awaited him.
Fa Ma and the other high-ranking mbers of the Alchemist Association exchanged glances, each seeing a blazing light in the other's eyes!
Surpass Gu He? With the strength and talent Xiao Yan displayed today, he had already surpassed Gu He!
Gu He was indeed a 6th-tier alchemist. However, Xiao Yan's fire control and Spiritual
Strength had already reached a level that was not inferior to a 6th-tier alchemist's. All he lacked in comparison was experience. In other words, it was rely a matter of ti.
Moreover, Xiao Yan possessed many things that even Gu He couldn't obtain.
Heavenly Fla, creativity, and youth.
Pill King Gu He held a pinnacle status in the Jia Ma Empire. Even Fa Ma was only comparable
to Gu He in reputation, but significantly inferior in strength.
In the eyes of countless novice alchemists, the four words 'Pill King Gu He' had once
represented an insurmountable peak!
But now, Xiao Yan had completely replaced that once unscalable peak. This eighteen-year-
old youth had beco the new, insurmountable mountain in the hearts of countless
alchemists!
He was the true Pill King!
Regardless of anything else, from this day forward, Xiao Yan's na would truly resonate
throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire!
"As the Chairman of the Jia Ma Empire's Alchemist Association, I hereby announce that the champion of the 7th Alchemist Grand eting is-Xiao Yan!!!!"
