Chapter 703

Boom!

Just as Xiao Yan was pondering how to obtain some puppets, a tremendous roar came again from the distant horizon.

In an instant, above a stone platform in the square, dazzling silver lightning snakes flashed again.

However, the white-clad woman who caused this commotion had a look of helplessness on her delicate pretty face.

"Xiao Yixian this time seems to have failed to successfully refine an Eighth Grade Pill."

The Heavenly Fire Venerable in the audience seats, upon seeing the distant commotion, immediately said with a hint of regret.

"Although Xiao Yixian's soul power is extremely strong, due to lacking the wood attribute, wanting to refine an Eighth Grade Pill is too difficult. However, because the pills she refined have undergone soul infusion, even if they don't reach Eighth Grade, they are far superior to the pills we refine with mortal realm souls."

At this moment, Ye Chong, who had already reached the level of Seventh Grade Pinnacle Alchemist, naturally understood just how difficult it was to refine an Eighth Grade Pill.

Therefore, it was not surprising that Xiao Yixian failed to successfully summon the two-colored pill lightning.

But for Xiao Yixian, a cultivator who does not meet the qualifications of an alchemist, her alchemical level actually surpassing mine, a proper alchemist, also left him feeling astonished.

However, the grade of the pill Xiao Yixian refined this time is also quite good.

But since these spectators have already undergone the baptism of those several multicolored lightning clouds before.

seeing Xiao Yixian's single-colored lightning cloud again now, they do not feel overly surprised

At this moment, the gazes of the entire crowd were basically focused on the few stone platforms where alchemists were still refining pills.

Among them, the stone platform where Lin Feng and the Old Man Mu Gu were located attracted the most attention.

After all, up to now, the other participants on those stone platforms are still refining pills because.

They have failed several times before and are now making a final struggle.

Only Lin Feng and the Old Man Mu Gu, up to now, have neither exploded their furnaces nor successfully refined any pills.

Thus, naturally, they attract the most gazes

At this very moment, the disguised Old Man Mu Gu, under the gaze of the multitude, slowly raised his face, curling his mouth into a strange smile.

Immediately, he slowly rose, his gaze cold and stern as he glanced at Xiao Yan, then turned his gaze toward Yun Kongzi and the other high-ranking officials of the Pill Tower, his eyes filled with mockery.

Sensing his strange gaze, Yun Kongzi and the others' hearts sank, secretly feeling that something was amiss.

"Hehehe, Yun Kongzi, sorry, it seems the champion of this Pill Assembly will be none other than me, hahaha!"

Seeing the slight change in Yun Kongzi and the others' expressions, the Old Man Mu Gu couldn't help but burst into loud laughter.

This time, his laughter was no longer concealed; it directly became his original voice.

And the aura that the Old Man Mu Gu had been hiding was completely revealed at this moment.

As the laughter faded, he flicked his finger, and a beam of light more terrifying than when those Eighth Grade Pills were born shot straight up from the medicine cauldron before him into the sky.

In an instant, the intense light caused many in the audience to feel a sharp pain in their eyes, then involuntarily close them.

"Hehehe, even a disciple from the Medicine Dust Sect is nothing more than this!"

As the massive beam of light before him shot up into the sky, the Old Man Mu Gu turned his head to look toward the distant Xiao Yan, his cold laughter echoing slowly across the square.

This little bastard has made him so miserable in the Pill Realm.

Now that he has found an opportunity, he naturally wants to mock him thoroughly.

Although he knows that Xiao Yan, at his age, achieving this level is already quite impressive, this does not prevent him from launching a mental attack on him.

"Who on earth is this mysterious black-clothed person?!"

Sensing the vast power contained within that massive beam of light, countless people on the spot arose with deep suspicion.

Judging from the energy fluctuations of the pill refined by this alchemist, it is likely that Cao Ying and the Old Man Qinghua and their group, who appeared earlier, have never reached such a level.

And to possess such ability, it is impossible for them to be unknown nobodies!

Of course, although the vast majority of people present cannot discern the owner of that voice.

But as Saint Pill City, the headquarters of the Pill Tower, it is not lacking in powerful individuals, and they were able to identify this person's identity.

Immediately, these people all fell silent.

After all, the forces behind this person are not something these Dou Zun can provoke.

As for Yun Kongzi and the others on the high platform, their faces gradually darkened at this moment.

"Old Man Mu Gu!"

Yun Kongzi and the other Pill Tower high-ranking officials gradually withdrew their smiles, their gazes icy as they fixed on that black-clad figure, speaking word by word.

"I never expected him to have means to conceal himself from the three of us, and his appearance is not his original one. It seems a strong expert from the Soul Hall has acted to hide his aura and appearance."

Upon seeing the arrival, a hint of chill crossed Yun Yi's cheek, and he spoke in a deep voice.

After all, the Old Man Mu Gu's own strength is only around three-star Dou Zun.

If he tried to conceal it himself, he would certainly not escape their notice.

Now it seems certain that a powerful expert has orchestrated this!

"Three presidents, what should we do now?"

Behind Yun Kongzi and the three, a white-robed Pill Tower elder stepped forward, his face grim as he spoke in a low voice.

Looking at the current situation, the Old Man Mu Gu's pill grade is clearly far superior to those before.

If we let him continue like this, there is a chance he could seize the championship of this Pill Assembly.

By then, the Pill Tower's reputation would truly be as if he had thrown it on the ground and stepped on it a few times.

After all, who in the Zhongzhou Continent doesn't know that the Pill Tower and the Soul Hall are mortal enemies?

If, under the eyes of all, a person from the Soul Hall obtained this highest honor of the Pill Tower, how ridiculous would that be?

Since he could think of this, Yun Kongzi naturally could as well, so his expression at this moment is also unusually grim.

"Let's watch for now; although the Old Man Mu Gu is from the Soul Hall, we have never explicitly forbidden Soul Hall members from participating in the Pill Assembly, so they naturally have the right to join. If we, under everyone's eyes, move to strip him of his eligibility, it would likely harm the Pill Tower's reputation."

"Then are we just going to let him take this championship title like this?"

Hearing this, the elder could not help but speak anxiously.

Let's stop arguing for now, let's see what happens first; as long as he hasn't broken the rules, we cannot act against him no matter what, even now.

Seeing the former's flustered look, Tian Lei Zi immediately furrowed his brows and spoke.

Seeing that, the old man had no choice but to retreat, saying nothing more.
