Chapter 524: Seven-Star Dou Saint
For the next month, the skies above Ancient Dragon Island echoed with thunderous rumbles day and night. A massive cauldron hovered high in the distant sky, engulfed in mesmerizing black flames that sent shivers down one's spine.
As the refining process drew to a close, Xiao Ming, who had kept his eyes tightly shut, slowly opened them to look at the cauldron floating in the sky. He smiled faintly.
Inside the cauldron, a golden light permeated the surroundings, and the golden liquid was completely depleted. However, in the center of the once-liquid surface, a golden pill floated silently. It was the size of a fist and shone like pure gold.
All around the pill, golden thunderbolts were continuously erupting, accompanied by a deafening rumbling sound.
The Ninth-Tier Xuan Pill, Lightning Calamity Pill, had finally been successfully refined!
Xiao Ming looked at the cauldron with a satisfied expression and stood up.
This session of Alchemy was also considered to confirm his alchemy strength. With his Emperor Realm soul combined with his experience in alchemy from the Hundred Lifetimes Reincarnation, he found that refining a Ninth-Tier Xuan Pill was like second nature to him.
Boom!
As Xiao Ming stood, the sky above the cauldron began to churn violently, coalescing into something resembling a thundercloud. Threads of black lightning, like colossal dragons, swirled and moved within the clouds.
'Lightning Tribulation, huh...' Xiao Ming smiled at the sight and didn't pay much attention.
Instead, he waved his hand and his formidable soul power spread out. Gradually, the thunderous sounds in the sky began to subside.
Finally, pure lightning power descended from the thunderclouds and poured onto the golden glowing pill in the cauldron.
Buzz buzz!
With the influx of lightning power, the last trace of impurity in the medicinal pill was completely purified.
A brilliant golden light erupted from the cauldron at this moment. The lid of the cauldron was forcefully lifted, revealing the glowing Lightning Tribulation Pill, which shot into the sky at an astonishing speed!
"After all the hard work of refining you for so long, there's no way I'm going to let you escape."
Xiao Ming laughed, and with a thought, the vast soul power he had unleashed earlier transformed into a giant hand that pierced through the empty space. In a flash, it caught the fleeing golden light before rapidly shrinking and entering Xiao Ming's brow. The golden glowing medicinal pill was obediently suspended in front of him as well.
"Hu..."
Xiao Ming involuntarily sighed in relief as he looked at the perfectly round, golden-glowing pill in front of him. He could sense the immense energy contained within this pill.
The quality of this Lightning Tribulation Pill surpassed that of an ordinary Ninth-Tier Xuan Pill!
However, this was hardly surprising. Xiao Ming was now undoubtedly the top alchemist in the entire Dou Qi Continent. Both in terms of ingredients and his own ability, he far surpassed the average Xuan Pill Grandmaster.
"Lightning Calamity Pill, I hope you won't disappoint me!"
Xiao Ming said with a faint smile at the golden glowing pill in front of him. He then closed his eyes, folded his arms, and the Lightning Tribulation Pill transformed into a streak of golden light that entered his mouth.
Boom!
As soon as the Lightning Tribulation Pill entered his body, an immensely violent and unprecedented fluctuation erupted from within. The bamboo house that Xiao Ming was in immediately burst apart.
A deep pit, tens of meters deep and a thousand meters wide, appeared at the top of the mountain, with Xiao Ming standing in the center.
Sizzle!
Brilliant golden lightning continuously shot out of his body, spreading outward and creating a deep rumble of thunder on his skin.
Under the embrace of the brilliant golden lightning, Xiao Ming's long, originally black hair now appeared as golden strands, as if made of pure gold.
While these changes were taking place on the surface of his body, there was a frenzy of roaring within. The violent lightning power was transformed into raging dragons that roamed wildly through him.
However, no matter how they raged, they seemed to encounter an extremely solid invisible barrier that repelled them all.
At the same time, the black flames within his body roared and aggressively devoured this chaotic energy. Once refined, it transformed into pure Dou Qi that seamlessly merged into his body.
With the help of his Emperor Realm soul and the power of the black flames, refining this fully formed Lightning Calamity Pill became an effortless task.
A brilliant golden light flickered in the enormous deep pit, and within that light, Xiao Ming kept his eyes tightly shut, his expression solemn.
The natural energy gradually formed some ripples. Finally, it gathered above the mountain peak. At a glance, it seemed as though there was a world tide-like mysterious scene.
Causing a world tide with one's Dou Qi was undoubtedly a rare feat. Most Seven-Star Dou Saint experts would find it extremely difficult, if not impossible. There were only a few people in this world who possessed such an extraordinary power.
Now, for Xiao Ming to be able to reach this level meant that his strength had truly reached the peak of this world!
Around the mountaintop, many of the Ancient Void Dragons were also moved as they witnessed the small-scale world tide in the sky.
"Ha ha, the residual waves of this energy could even shake me to death."
Hei Qing muttered to himself among the Ancient Void Dragons. There was a faint sense of awe in his eyes. Even though the Ancient Void Dragons were proud creatures, they held reverence for the powerful, even if this person was well acquainted with them.
The surge of energy lasted for ten days before it gradually subsided. It wasn't until two days later that the energy tide completely dissipated.
Sizzle!
Just as the energy tide began to dissipate, a golden pillar of light suddenly shot out of the massive pit as if it had pierced the sky. It was a magnificent sight to behold from afar.
A figure slowly emerged from the golden pillar of light as it rose into the sky. Then he stepped into the void, and after a graceful landing on the ground, the golden pillar of light began to fade, eventually disappearing from the world.
Xiao Ming lifted his head and looked up at the sky where the energy tide had completely dissipated. His hair had returned to its original state, but his jet-black pupils occasionally had some golden color flashing within them. They seemed to possess a strange pressure when one looked at them.
"Intermediate Seven-Star Dou Saint..."
Xiao Ming sensed the state within his body and a smile appeared on his face. The effect of the Lightning Tribulation Pill hadn't disappointed him. It had indeed propelled him beyond the six-star stage and into the intermediate seven-star Dou Saint.
With his unique Heavenly Flame, his Dou Qi had been refined to an unprecedented level without any sense of impurity. He didn't need much more refinement to stabilize his current realm.
"It's truly worthy of a Ninth-Tier Xuan Lightning Calamity Pill. With my Emperor Realm soul as the core and this terrifying Dou Qi, I can now contend with Hun Tiandi and Gu Yuan..."
