Chapter 58: Green Lotus Pill-Condensing Method!

~9 min read 1,777 words

The Green Lotus Core Flame is born in the deep reaches of the earth, having undergone countless temperings, fusions, compressions, and carvings by the earth's fire. It gains spirit in ten years, takes form in a hundred, and becomes a lotus in a thousand; when fully matured, its power is unfathomable, and in areas near volcanoes, it can even trigger volcanic eruptions.

Volcanic Stone Flame is also born in the depths of volcanoes and possesses the ability to stir the power of volcanoes.

Although the Xiao Clan naturally has no volcano, what if one were to use the lotus rhizome of the Green Lotus Core Flame to first drill into the ground, forming a small fissure that leads directly to the subterranean magma?

The answer is what you see now: powerful magma fire elements are being continuously extracted by the Volcanic Green Lotus Flame and injected into the Flame Green Lotus.

Inside the enormous flame lotus, the monster core and the other two masses of medicinal liquid had already successfully fused, transforming into the embryonic form of a medicinal pill!

Xiao Yan's eyes widened in fury, his hands pressed together, and he shouted loudly: "Flame Green Lotus, condense!"

Boom, boom!!!

Following Xiao Yan's explosive shout, the power within the one hundred and eight petals of the Flame Green Lotus surged instantly, continuously rushing toward the embryonic pill at the center. The embryonic pill, which had been in a liquid state, rapidly solidified under the scorching high temperature, gradually revealing itself as wisps of pale purple pill fragrance rose up and slowly spread out from the Flame Green Lotus.

"Heavens! Look! It's colored pill fragrance! He succeeded!" Seeing the purple mist spreading from the Flame Green Lotus, those who knew their stuff immediately shrieked.

"Colored pill fragrance? What is that?" someone asked, puzzled.

"Colored pill fragrance, as the name implies, is pill fragrance that has color. Generally, only grade five medicinal pills or grade four peak medicinal pills nearing grade five possess it. The appearance of this fragrance means that Young Clan Leader Xiao Yan's pill has reached at least the level of a grade four peak, and it has already been refined!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd, who originally did not know what colored pill fragrance was, immediately boiled over with excitement!

"Heavens! It's actually like this; doesn't that mean Young Clan Leader Xiao Yan is already a grade four peak alchemist or even a grade five alchemist!"

"Indeed! Young Master Xiao Yan is not even sixteen yet, right! To be able to suppress a Dou Ling with martial arts and refine a grade four pill! It is truly too astonishing!"

"Ahem, pay attention over there; the Dou Ling who was suppressed is still right there!"

At this moment, Jia Tianyu's face was dark, and he glared fiercely at the person who had spoken without thinking just now, somewhat regretting having saved him from Xiao Yan's heatwave earlier. However, his attention was quickly drawn back to Xiao Yan.

Originally, the appearance of the purple medicinal fragrance should have meant that the pill refining was finished. But at this moment, Xiao Yan did not stop; instead, he manipulated even more flame energy to surge toward the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill that had already condensed into shape.

As the flame energy continuously merged into the pill, the scorching green-red flame now seemed to transform into the most excellent sculptor, leaving line after line of patterns on the surface of the purple pill. In a short while, an exquisite lotus pattern appeared vividly on the purple pill body.

And with the appearance of the lotus pattern, the purple pill, which was already as crystalline as jade, suddenly emitted an even more intense purple light, and the surrounding misty medicinal fragrance also surged instantly; its richness was not inferior even to a genuine grade five medicinal pill!

As the final stroke of the lotus pattern fell, the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill reached its limit and could no longer contain any more flame energy.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan rapidly performed hand seals, and the roots of the Flame Green Lotus gradually retracted and disappeared, finally leaving only the initial eight-petaled lotus wrapping the purple pill, staying quietly inside the Black Demon Cauldron.

As Xiao Yan slapped the side of the cauldron, the lid shot out, and the remaining green-red Heavenly Flame surged out, bringing with it heatwaves like fire snakes. The eight-petaled lotus carried the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill out of the Black Demon Cauldron and slowly landed in Xiao Yan's hand.

Soon, the last trace of flame power also vanished, and the eight petals of the flame lotus opened and withered one by one,

finally turning into specks of starlight and disappearing into the void beneath his palm.

Retracting his palm, he took a deep breath of the air that was still scorching, and looking at the pill in his hand, a sense of fatigue bordering on dizziness suddenly surged up.

If he had only been refining an ordinary Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill, it naturally wouldn't be like this. But during the process of refining the pill, Xiao Yan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and created the Green Lotus Pill-Condensing Method just now, not only successfully refining the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill but also using the nourishment of the Green Lotus Flame to take its medicinal efficacy to a higher level.

If the original Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill could only raise a Great Dou Shi by one star, then the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill nourished by the Green Lotus Pill-Condensing Method had a certain chance of allowing a Great Dou Shi to rise two stars in a row. If it were a low-level Great Dou Shi, it could even guarantee a two-star rise, with the medicinal efficacy increasing by nearly fifty percent!

However, the toll on Xiao Yan was also enormous, especially the creation of the Green Lotus Pill-Condensing Method, which had almost exhausted Xiao Yan's soul power. Waves of weakness were now vibrating from the depths of Xiao Yan's soul, but at this moment, those who had previously fled to avoid Xiao Yan's raging fire had gathered around again.

Xiao Yan's spirit jolted, and he forcibly suppressed the exhaustion of his soul, facing the crowd that had gathered back around as if nothing were wrong.

"Yan'er, are you alright?" As Xiao Yan's father, everyone tacitly left the first opportunity to speak to him; this was the courtesy due to a father who was a powerhouse. However, Xiao Zhan did not know the thoughts of these people; as a father, he was merely worried about whether the execution of the powerful Flame Green Lotus had caused a burden on Xiao Yan.

"I'm fine, it's just that the consumption of Dou Qi was a bit high," Xiao Yan smiled slightly, giving an expression that let Xiao Zhan rest assured.

The second to step forward was the Little Doctor Fairy. She didn't say anything, just stepped up to help Xiao Yan tidy his somewhat disheveled clothes and patted him on the chest to show encouragement.

Xiao Yan grinned at this and took the opportunity to kiss the Little Doctor Fairy on the forehead, causing the surrounding people to tacitly turn their heads away, though a few revealed complex expressions.

After this, there were still people from the Xiao Clan in their excitement who wanted to step forward, but if it continued like this, it would be endless, so Xiao Yan smiled at Qing Lian and reached out to stop them, then turned his head to look at the protagonists of today's viewing—the alchemists who had been brought here.

When Medusa first saw them, some looked at Xiao Yan with awe, some were dismissive, and some were curious. But at this very moment, they all had only one expression: fanaticism and adoration. Even Bai Ye's face now revealed a look of longing.

Xiao Yan smiled slightly. Although the process had some twists and turns, the effect had finally been achieved, and one could even say it was surprisingly good. Holding the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill high, he said: "Everyone has seen today's pill refining. I won't say anything else; just one sentence: I will record my pill refining footage in jade slips, including five types of grade three pills and three types of grade four pills. If anyone is willing to stay, you can go find my Xiao Clan's people now to discuss the terms."

"

"Awoo! Long live the Young Clan Leader!" As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, the alchemists present immediately boiled over, howling. Some quick-witted ones even directly called him Young Clan Leader, as if they had already considered themselves Xiao Clan members.

That evening, the Xiao Clan held a grand banquet, and the alchemists who had been brought here, without exception, all stayed.

Although the pill refining abilities of these people were nothing to Xiao Yan, for the Xiao Clan, it was enough to allow the Xiao Clan to sit firmly on the throne of the number one family in Wu Tan City after Xiao Yan left. In this way, Xiao Yan himself could also leave with peace of mind.

At the banquet, Bai Ye, as a grade three alchemist, was arranged to sit next to Xiao Yan, while the Little Doctor Fairy sat on the other side.

Originally, Xiao Yan would definitely have been chatting with the Little Doctor Fairy, but Bai Ye very proactively started talking to Xiao Yan about the details of refining the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill during the day, saying he wanted to use it as a reference for his future advancement.

Although Bai Ye did not choose to stay in the Xiao Clan, Xiao Yan still did not hold back and explained it carefully.

During the explanation, Xiao Yan unexpectedly discovered that Bai Ye's talent was far better than he had imagined, and he suddenly felt a trace of curiosity. Logically speaking, with Bai Ye's talent, he shouldn't only be grade three at this age.

Although he found it strange in his heart, Xiao Yan did not ask further.

However, Xiao Yan soon couldn't take it anymore, because Bai Ye was always looking at him with a look of longing. Although Xiao Yan wasn't unable to understand it, being looked at with longing by a forty or fifty-year-old uncle was still something Xiao Yan couldn't quite handle.

At this moment, Ya Fei suddenly walked over and said she had something to discuss.

Xiao Yan immediately felt as if he had seen a life-saving straw; after asking the Little Doctor Fairy to help entertain Bai Ye, he hurriedly took Ya Fei and left.
