At the very instant when the final four Seal Skills struck into the four sides of the tripod—
Clang!
The ancient tripod trembled and rang, like a giant beast roaring.
A burst of dazzling golden light exploded out from within the tripod like a sun breaking free, spreading across the sky.
Shocking phenona appeared—layer upon layer of Heaven and Earth condensed into tangible reality, like a golden mirage reflecting all the rivers, mountains, and valleys of the world, floating and drifting within.
To present the form of Heaven and Earth—utterly world-shaking!
"Is this... supre grade or transcendental grade?"
Xu Yang couldn’t help but gasp, his eyes full of disbelief and wonder.
With all the Shi Family’s preparations, even an ordinary Heaven and Earth Nurturing Elixir would suffice.
But if it could reach supre or transcendental grade, so much the better!
Gu Jun craned his neck, staring fixedly at the tripod.
Boom!
A beam of golden light shot out violently, as if trying to escape.
For a mont, everyone caught a glimpse of a spiritual cloud, shimring through layers of Heaven and Earth, flashing by.
"Transcendental grade!"
Xu Yang cried out in shock.
An elixir with spirit—a transcendental grade indeed.
"Hmph!"
"You think you can escape before this old man?"
The purple-robed elder gave a cold snort, his curved palm flashed like lightning.
Bang!
The light of the pill scattered—yet the elixir itself was gone.
The purple-robed elder slowly opened his palm—a golden, lustrous pill the size of a longan fruit lay quietly within.
Crystal-clear as jade, brilliant as rosy clouds twining around.
A gossar aurora, thin as a cicada’s wing, circled it—auspicious signs bursting forth!
Gulp!
Gu Jun couldn’t hold back—he swallowed hard, his eyes blazing with desire.
Transcendental-grade Heaven and Earth Nurturing Elixir!
This was beyond Gu Jun’s wildest dreams.
He would actually be able to remake his body with a transcendental-grade Heaven and Earth Nurturing Elixir!
"Take it."
Seeing Gu Jun nearly drool with longing, the purple-robed elder shook his head and chuckled, tossing over the pill with a flick of his hand.
Gu Jun caught it with both hands, careful as if handling a treasure.
"Xiaoguzi, the physical body Patriarch prepared for you is in the rear secret chamber—co with ."
A crimson-robed elder rose and spoke in a deep voice.
Only then did Gu Jun return to his senses, filled with excitent and anticipation.
He turned, deeply grateful to Shi Feng: "Thank you, Patriarch!"
Shi Feng waved a hand in acknowledgnt.
"Boy, wait for your master’s return."
Gu Jun grinned at Xu Yang, then hurried after the crimson-robed elder toward the rear chamber.
"In as little as five days, at most seven, it will be done," Shi Feng said coolly.
With all these preparations, there was almost no chance of failure.
Xu Yang nodded slightly, his heart full of anticipation.
The mories of journeying with Gu Jun replayed in his mind: from the ti they were trapped by the Five Elents Heaven-Trapping Bowl, to his teacher selflessly handing out Earth Spirit Milk and other Spirit Elixirs. Xu Yang understood exactly what Gu Jun longed for.
Having a fleshly body—that is the greatest hope!
"Master, I’ll wait for you."
Xu Yang silently prayed in his heart.
"Boy, I heard you lost to Xiao Ming?"
The purple-robed elder suddenly beckoned Xu Yang over.
Xu Yang strode quickly forward. "I was simply outmatched!"
The purple-robed elder looked him over and couldn’t help but laugh. "Your state of mind is quite good—not a sha to lose to Xiao Ming!"
"When he was born, he fused with the Five Elents Spirit God of the Five Elents Celestial Realm. Those Spirit Gods were all remnants of five mighty Shenxiao Realm experts—both their bodies and fragnts of their souls."
"He has not even truly erupted yet; when he reaches Shenxiao, that will be his ti of explosive ascension and terrifying power!"
At these words, Xu Yang’s whole body tensed, disbelief in his voice: "Then from birth, he was fated to beco number one in the Five Elents Celestial Realm?"
The purple-robed elder nodded slightly, "That’s right. He was born with the Five Elents Spirit Bone, fused the Five Elents Spirit God—as if wings were attached to a tiger. Of course, few know such a secret."
"If you wish to defeat him, this old man will be blunt: You have no hope!"
Xu Yang fell silent.
For a long ti, he looked up and t the elder’s gaze. "No matter how difficult it is, I won’t back down!"
"And I do not believe I am inferior to him!"
"Oh?"
The three elders all showed surprise in their eyes.
"Boy, if you don’t mind, show us so of your skills," the gray-robed elder said, interested.
Xu Yang took a deep breath, not hesitating.
Hum—
The phantom of the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod surfaced from his body, condensing rapidly, exuding an astonishing ancient and mysterious aura.
"This tripod..." The gray-robed elder’s pupils shrank tight. "What a strange tripod—nothing overtly unusual, and yet I can’t see through it."
"There seems to be so kind of obscure power shrouding it." The purple-robed elder’s eyes flashed brilliantly.
Right after, Minghuo surged!
The spirit mark appeared.
"Minghuo... What Spirit Fire is this?"
"And that spirit mark of yours... sealing power—not bad at all!"
The three elders were dumbstruck, staring wide-eyed.
"But, it’s still not enough!"
The purple-robed elder frowned deeply.
"Seems you hide quite a few secrets, boy. The three of us old fellows can barely glimpse your spirit mark. As for this tripod and Minghuo, truly bizarre!"
"Yet, they seem to be transforming as you grow stronger!"
At that, he nailed the crux of the matter!
Xu Yang nodded faintly.
The limits of the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod and the Heaven-Burning Divine Fire—where do they lie?
Xu Yang himself didn’t know, but he believed they were, by no ans, inferior to Xiao Ming’s powers!
At so point, Shi Feng had already slipped away unnoticed.
"Boy, is your Alchemy Dao strong?" the purple-robed elder pressed on.
"Before three seniors such as yourselves, I wouldn’t dare say ’strong’!" Xu Yang responded quickly.
In terms of Alchemy Dao, he only asured up to the elders’ shoes.
"Don’t belittle yourself."
"Show us your skills!"
The gray-robed elder seed especially interested. With a wave of his sleeve, a pile of Spirit Elixirs and a pill recipe appeared out of thin air.
"Seven-tier elixir—give it a try!"
Looking at all the Spirit Elixirs, Xu Yang licked his lips. "I’ll do my best, then!"
He hadn’t made pills in quite so ti.
To be honest, he’d missed it.
Imdiately, he summoned the divine tripod and began alchemy right there in front of the three elders.
"This tripod’s true form is even stranger."
"Neither material nor aura can this old man discern."
"There also seems to be a suprely profound disturbance hidden within this tripod."
"Yes, this boy’s secrets run deeper than we imagined."
The three elders exchanged glances, communicating in secret, shock filling their hearts.
"Tch, is that technique reckless or—huh?"
The purple-robed elder frowned and mumbled, but then his eyebrows shot up in astonishnt.
Soon the three were staring, eyes growing wide!
All of them were awestruck by Xu Yang’s alchemical thods and the spirit fire of the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod.
"So this is what Xiaoguzi ant by ’this one was simply born for alchemy’."
"Such an advantage is unmatched!"
The three were all titans on the path of alchemy, and all saw at a glance just how great an advantage Xu Yang’s craft bestowed.
"With techniques like that, I suddenly feel there’s no one better suited!" murmured the gray-robed elder.
"Should we let him try?"
The white-haired elder rubbed his hands together, clearly excited.
"Let’s give it a try. If this kid can truly comprehend it, the nas of us four old fellows could suppress the Spirit Realm’s pill world for several generations yet!" The purple-robed elder licked his lips in excitent—his usually tranquil heart now surging with great waves.
At their level of cultivation and status, the chance to impart new things and shock their peers—to be a yardstick for others to aspire to—was all that still mattered.
A short while later—
A seven-tier transcendental-grade pill was refined.
The three elders all nodded in satisfaction, their eyes full of praise.
The purple-robed elder grew solemn, clearing his throat as he gazed at Xu Yang and said in a deep voice, "Boy, have you ever heard of Alchemy Attack?"
