603: Chapter 537: Dan Tribulation – Part 2 603: Chapter 537: Dan Tribulation – Part 2 The May sky over the Eastern Sea was like the face of an actor, prone to sudden change.
Just two days before, it had been a bright, sunny day, but today dark clouds lood overhead, as if a torrential downpour was imminent.
At Ao Xiang Villa, in the courtyard of Villa No.
7,
the rich fragrance of dicine overflowed from the dicine Furnace and filled the courtyard.
Around the dicine Furnace, Su Yuxin, Situ Ruoshui, Su Jindi, and Pan Jueming sat like old monks in deep ditation, cross-legged as they continuously absorbed the scent of the dicine.
Their bodies seed cleansed, expelling much dirt, which was black and sared all over their clothes, emitting a rather foul odor.
However—
Foul as it was, over the past two days, they had been sitting cross-legged around the dicine Furnace, absorbing its fragrance.
Because Chu Ji had told them that this was a rare opportunity to improve their physiques, far more effective than a year of arduous cultivation.
“Clang, clang, clang…”
After Ye Fan had controlled the flas to refine the Lifespan Extension Pill for a full forty-eight hours, a crisp sound rang out, and the dicine Furnace trembled slightly.
Swish!
The sudden noise startled Su Yuxin and the others awake.
They ca to their senses from their ditative state and looked at the dicine Furnace with surprise.
At the sa ti, Chu Xuanji, Ye Wenhao, and Chu Ji were also staring intently at the dicine Furnace.
“It looks like the elixir has taken shape.”
Chu Ji sent her consciousness into the dicine Furnace and felt that the originally egg-sized mixture of nine ingredients had now shrunk to the size of a marble.
She then said to Su Yuxin and the others, “Yuxin, there’s one more hour until Core Formation, you all should get up and clean yourselves.”
“I’ll wait for him to finish refining the elixir before I wash; you guys go ahead,” Su Yuxin said, not minding the stench, as she stood up and left the dicine Furnace, addressing Situ Ruoshui and the others.
Upon hearing this, the other three shook their heads, indicating they wouldn’t wash either.
Seeing this, Chu Ji didn’t say anything further, but her beautiful eyes remained fixed on Ye Fan, suddenly noticing that Ye Fan’s brow was furrowed and his forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat, looking sowhat strained.
“Master, what’s wrong with Xiao Fan?”
Seeing this, Chu Ji felt a sense of unease and couldn’t help but ask.
“A sign of excessively depleted Mind Power,” Chu Xuanji responded indifferently, his brows slowly knitting together.
“I see…
then it’s nothing to worry about, he previously consud a Plant Essence, which should allow him to quickly recover his Mind Power,” Chu Ji sighed in relief.
Chu Xuanji said nothing further but continued to sense everything that was happening with Ye Fan and the dicine Furnace intently.
As he sensed, Chu Xuanji’s brow furrowed tighter.
Reason told him that if Ye Fan was rely suffering from excessive Mind Power depletion, he should not be experiencing an unstable Consciousness and fluctuating breath.
Just as Chu Xuanji had expected, the current situation with Ye Fan was not as simple as just an exhaustion of Mind Power.
Ever since the Lifespan Extension Pill inside the dicine Furnace began to jump and strike the walls of the furnace, not only had he felt his Mind Power being depleted more rapidly, but an inexplicable sense of crisis also welled up in his heart, as if fated to encounter doom!
The sudden sense of crisis grew stronger, to the point where it disturbed his Consciousness, making it unstable.
“The Dan Tribulation has not yet appeared, but just the premonition is disturbing my Consciousness; could it be that the Dan Tribulation for refining the Lifespan Extension Pill is even more terrifying than the Heavenly Tribulation from the Heaven-defying Fate Changing?”
Ye Fan couldn’t help but internally question himself, then tried to sense the Crimson Golden Crown with his consciousness again, only to find, as before, that he couldn’t sense it at all, as if the Crimson Golden Crown didn’t exist.
This discovery made his heart sink, intensifying the unease within him!
“So what if the Crimson Golden Crown isn’t there to protect ?
Having co this far, even if the Dan Tribulation arrives, I have to resist to the end and not allow the refinent to fail!”
Ye Fan gritted his teeth, stopped trying to sense the Crimson Golden Crown, and instead solidified his resolve, eliminated distractions in his heart, and dispelled the unease.
Gradually, Ye Fan’s heart beca clear, devoid of all distractions.
He began to absorb and Refine the essence of the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi inside his body to replenish the depleted Mind Power, preparing to face the impending Dan Tribulation!
Sensing all this, Chu Xuanji quietly breathed a sigh of relief, but his furrowed brow did not relax.
Clearly…
he knew that the real test had not yet started; this was rely a prelude!
As if to confirm Chu Xuanji’s guess, half an hour later, after Ye Fan had completely restored his depleted Mind Power, the Primordial Qi of Heaven and Earth above Ao Xiang Villa suddenly began to fluctuate, gathering towards the sky above Villa No.
7.
“What’s that?”
In the courtyard of the villa, Su Jindi exclaid in shock, staring at the sky with horror.
In the sky, the gathered Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi spontaneously ford a Primordial Qi Vortex, dispersing all the surrounding dark clouds.
“Boom~”
Just then, a terrifying thunderclap suddenly exploded, reverberating powerfully as if to tear open a black hole in the sky.
The fearso sound of thunder seed like a summon, calling for the Primordial Qi of Heaven and Earth around Ao Xiang Villa.
After the thunder, almost all the Primordial Qi in the entire Eastern Sea began to stir, as if heeding a call, autonomously flowing toward Ao Xiang Villa.
Masses of ink-like clouds also surged towards the sky above Ao Xiang Villa, coiling around the Primordial Qi Vortex and forming a black hole, as if heralding the end of days.
The sudden strange phenonon left Su Yuxin, Situ Ruoshui, Su Jindi, and Pan Jueming completely dumbfounded!
At the ti Ye Fan used the Heaven-defying Fate Changing Technique to prolong Ye Yuanshan’s life, they were not present and had no idea what Heavenly Tribulation was like nor had they seen any strange phenonon.
Not just them, even Ye Wenhao and Chu Ji were taken aback!
They had witnessed the Heavenly Tribulation induced by Ye Fan’s use of the Heaven-defying Fate Changing Technique and had seen the phenonon, but the phenonon at that ti was nowhere near as terrifying as it was now!
“Master, why do I feel sothing is not quite right?
Isn’t this Dan Tribulation a bit too arcane?
Even before it has started, it is so magnificent; can Xiao Fan withstand it?”
Shock soon gave way to concern as Chu Ji imdiately looked towards Chu Xuanji, only to find his brows furrowed even tighter, which made her feel uneasy.
Upon hearing Chu Ji’s words, Ye Wenhao and others gradually snapped out of their surprise and turned their gazes towards Chu Xuanji.
“You all retreat outside the courtyard, better yet, get beyond the villa.” Chu Xuanji looked up at the sky, his response seemingly off-topic, his expression more serious than ever.
Huh?
As soon as Chu Xuanji uttered those words, Ye Wenhao, Chu Ji, and the others were sharply taken aback!
“Chu…
Miracle Doctor Chu, do you an Xiao Fan might be in danger?” Ye Wenhao was the first to regain his composure, asking with a face full of concern.
“The Dan Tribulation is more fearso than I anticipated,” said Chu Xuanji slowly.
“So what do we do?
Should we stop?”
Chu Ji’s face also showed her worry, deducing from Chu Xuanji’s words and changing expressions that Ye Fan was in grave danger.
“Yes, stop.
It doesn’t matter if the alchemy fails, Xiao Fan absolutely must not co to harm!” Ye Wenhao declared with unusual determination; to him, nothing in this world was more important than Ye Fan’s life.
“Heaven unleashes its killing intent as stars shift positions.
He has triggered the Dan Tribulation.
Even if he stops now, the Dan Tribulation will descend,” Chu Xuanji shook his head and explained.
Whoosh!
Hearing Chu Xuanji’s words once again, the complexions of Ye Wenhao and the others changed dramatically!
“You all get out of here, I’ll stay behind and lend him a hand,” Chu Xuanji withdrew his gaze and spoke again with an unquestionable tone.
“Chu…
Miracle Doctor Chu, how confident are you in ensuring Xiao Fan’s safety?”
Even though Ye Wenhao had long been as stable as a rock, at this mont, he panicked, his voice slightly trembling.
Whoosh!
Answering Ye Wenhao was the sound of sothing cutting through the air!
With a wave of his hand, Chu Xuanji sent out a burst of Gang Qi from his palm, turning it into a stream of air that swept up Ye Wenhao and the others, eventually landing them hundreds of ters away from Villa No.
7.
“Chu…
Master Chu!”
Ye Wenhao was now completely frantic.
After landing, he imdiately let out a roar and tried to rush back towards the villa.
Although Su Yuxin did not speak, she followed close behind Ye Wenhao.
“Even if we go over there, we wouldn’t be of any help to Xiao Fan, but instead, we might disturb him.”
Chu Ji, too, wanted to go over, but she understood the intention behind Chu Xuanji sending them away from the villa, and she now stood in front of both Ye Wenhao and Su Yuxin.
“Why didn’t you tell earlier that Xiao Fan would be in danger?” Ye Wenhao seed desperate, challenging Chu Ji with his question.
“I…”
Chu Ji opened her mouth to speak but was at a loss for words—she had assud that the Crimson Golden Crown would help Ye Fan resist the Dan Tribulation and had never thought Ye Fan would be in any danger!
“Sigh…
I just hope Xiao Fan will be alright.”
Seeing this, Ye Wenhao knew that anger would serve no purpose at this point and could only silently pray.
Su Yuxin had wanted to say sothing, seeing that Ye Wenhao was no longer pressing her, she swallowed her words and also prayed in her heart.
Even Pan Jueming, who had been confident in Ye Fan, felt his faith waver at this sight.
After all, even Chu Xuanji, the second-ranked on the Dragon Ranking and the number one in Huaxia’s magical skills, had said that Ye Fan was in danger!
The only one who remained confident in Ye Fan was Su Jindi.
But—
Seeing everyone’s worried expressions, he dared not speak a word.
Inside the villa, Chu Xuanji no longer looked to the sky but refocused his gaze, looking at Ye Fan with a face full of concern.
As soone who had browsed ancient texts, he knew that the Dan Tribulation descended just before core formation.
As long as the alchemist could withstand the Dan Tribulation, they could ensure the success of the elixir pills; otherwise, both the alchemist and the elixir would be annihilated.
At this mont, with nearly half an hour to go until core formation, massive amounts of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi were gathering in the sky, and more was crazily surging towards this place!
How could he not be worried?
“It seems that the tribulation for the Lifespan Extension Pill is far more terrifying than the Heaven-defying Fate Changing Technique.”
Feeling the Primordial Qi coursing through the sky, Ye Fan acknowledged this fact but was neither anxiously concerned nor giving up.
Instead, with a move of his consciousness, he began to compress the Mind Power within the ntal Seed frantically.
He intended to use this thod to break through his limits, making the Mind Power more condensed and increase its quantity and quality!
Because…
Besides the terrifying Primordial Qi Column striking him, the Dan Tribulation would also bring with it fearso Mind Attacks.
Without the protection of the Crimson Golden Crown, he could only rely on his own will and Mind to resist the Mind Attacks of the Dan Tribulation!
“Swoosh—”
Just then, a current of air whistled towards Ao Xiang Villa, carrying two figures that were faintly visible.
Before the Dan Tribulation descended, Jie Dao and Emperor Bai, master and disciple, had arrived first!
They ca to witness Ye Fan’s soul scatter!
