Chapter 91
The other heroines also wore expressions of disbelief, mixed with even deeper admiration for Xu Chen. Their man was truly that powerful.
At this moment, Ye Xuan's face had turned as grim as it could possibly be.
The smile that had been on his face earlier had vanished completely, replaced by shock and disbelief in his eyes. He was nearly stunned into silence.
For what Xu Chen had displayed so far had already exceeded the limits of his understanding.
Xu Chen stretched and said, "E Nan, the elixir is nearly complete; stop crying." E Nan covered her mouth, her heart filled with profound gratitude: "Th-thank you, Xu Chen." In that moment, hope for her own survival was rekindled within her. The one saving her was still the man who loved her.
She was filled with happiness and completely content. Xu Chen said lazily, "Give me some time."
E Nan nodded firmly: "Whether it takes an hour, a day, or a lifetime, I will wait for you."
Xu Chen: "………………"
He winced as if in pain: "It won't take an hour; it will be very fast.
A waste like Ye Xuan would probably need two hours to refine the elixir from its initial form to completion. But I don't; I only need a hundred or so breaths." The crowd outside was struck again with a sharp jolt. A quarter of an hour? Refining a seventh-grade elixir from its initial form to completion? Was that even possible?
They certainly couldn't, but they weren't sure about Xu Chen. Ye Xuan gritted his teeth: "Even if you can refine an elixir in a quarter of an hour, can you guarantee it will be of the highest quality? Blindly pursuing speed often results in defective elixirs. Do you think I don't know that?" Xu Chen said calmly: "Tell me, what characteristics does a supreme-grade seventh-grade elixir possess?" Ye Xuan snorted, reciting as if from memory: "Once the elixir is formed, it will emit colored fragrant smoke.
A low-grade seventh-grade elixir emits one wisp of red fragrance; a mid-grade seventh-grade elixir emits three wisps: red, orange, and yellow.
A high-grade seventh-grade elixir emits five colored wisps: red, orange, yellow, green, and blue-green. Finally, the supreme-grade seventh-grade elixir, the best of all, emits seven colored wisps: red, orange, yellow, green, blue-green, blue, and purple, resembling a rainbow.
If it is a supreme-grade seventh-grade elixir, it will also attract an elixir tribulation. If the tribulation is not survived, the elixir will be destroyed.
Don't tell me you think you can attract an elixir tribulation?" Xu Chen yawned: "A mere seventh-grade elixir, and you take it so seriously. A waste is a waste. Open your dog eyes and see what kind of elixir your father has quickly refined. Elixir formed, out of the furnace!" Having spoken, Xu Chen suddenly shouted loudly.
The next second, all the unevenness on the surface of the elixir's initial form vanished in that instant. A round, smooth elixir, the size of a dragon's eye, immediately hovered in mid-air before the shocked gazes of the crowd, radiating an ever-shifting aura.
Wisps of colored fragrant smoke gradually appeared in everyone's vision. One wisp!
Three wisps! More than five wisps!
Finally, seven wisps of rainbow-like fragrant smoke rose from the elixir out of thin air. A supreme-grade seventh-grade elixir!
Above the sky, dark clouds gathered, and the sound of thunder rolled incessantly; the elixir tribulation was about to descend. At that moment, both inside and outside the entire E Nan domain fell into an eerie silence. Everyone watching this scene was filled with utter shock in their eyes.
The elixir Xu Chen had quickly refined was truly a supreme-grade seventh-grade elixir. This youth was actually that terrifying!
Ye Xuan was completely stunned: "It really is a Grade Seven Supreme Elixir, and the heavenly tribulation is about to descend?" Seeing this scene, he collapsed to the ground.
At this moment, he felt as if struck by a heavy blow, his eyes showing a hint of despair. How could Xu Chen be so strong?
The Spirit Venerable sighed, "Talents in the world are as numerous as ox hairs, but I have never seen anyone like Xu Chen before."
Even in his youth, he had never achieved such a feat.
Xu Chen has only studied for a short time, yet he has achieved such alchemical success, which is truly rare. It can only be described in four words: astonishing talent, a prodigy of heaven and earth!
The geniuses of various sects within the field also looked on in shock, murmuring to themselves, "The entire alchemy process took less than a quarter of an hour."
"And this is a Grade Seven elixir. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, how would I dare to believe it?"
"Others take at least three days; he forms the elixir while chatting, and with a wave of his hand, a Grade Seven Supreme Elixir is born." Such a spectacle is worth the trip today; we may never see such a thing again. For a moment, everyone within the Calamity Field wore expressions of awe.
Looking at Xu Chen, they involuntarily felt a hint of reverence in their eyes. Some even knew Xu Chen from the Profound Heaven Secret Realm.
This time, they originally thought that after Grade Seven, they could surpass Xu Chen. They never expected that they had overestimated themselves again.
Xu Chen, regardless of the grade, is an existence that crushes his peers.
After all, alchemists like Xu Chen probably number only one in the entire Celestial Venerable Imperial Dynasty.
Outside the Calamity Field, the crowd gasped in unison.
Lu Chong, as if slapped in the face, sighed, "This old man's vision was short-sighted. Young friend Xu Chen's ability far exceeds mine!"
The crowd silently spat. Now he's calling him 'young friend' at 450? How shameless.
Du E clasped his hands and said, "Amitabha. Young friend Xu Chen's talent truly resembles my younger brother who went missing in my childhood."
The crowd clicked their tongues. They thought Lu Chong was shameless enough, but they never expected Du E to claim him as a younger brother.
They also refused to be outdone, saying, "Fortunately, I met Daoist friend Xu Chen the day before and gave him some guidance. Seeing Daoist friend Xu Chen achieve such success today, my heart is greatly comforted."
"Hehe, when Xu Chen was young, he begged to become my disciple. I refused because I had vowed not to take disciples, but I taught him for seven days. He is doing very well now!"
"Back when Xu Chen was two years old, his grandfather wanted to befriend me. I didn't agree at the time, and I regret it a bit."
Everyone shamelessly tried to ride Xu Chen's coattails.
Shangguan Luoyun said coldly, "Everyone, watch your words. If I tell Xu Chen, be careful of your futures."
The crowd quickly gave an awkward smile, "It's all in the past, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning." Shangguan Luoyun snorted, "Everyone, do you think this heavenly tribulation can break the Calamity Field?"
Duanmu Jing said, "The heavenly tribulation ignores magical treasures and weapons; it will likely ignore the Calamity Field as well." Golden Dragon nodded, "Correct. The heavenly tribulation will inevitably approach Xu Chen, and the seven tribulations will each be stronger than the last. However, I heard Xu Chen practices body cultivation, and his physique is not weak. I think he will likely withstand it."
Zhang Yun of Mount Wudang stroked his beard and said, "Not necessarily. After all, who can explain the matter of heavenly tribulations?" The crowd agreed, "The Daoist is right. The heavenly tribulation is a calamity, and calamities are unknown." Upon hearing this, Shangguan Luoyun and Chi Lian immediately felt secretly worried.
In the previous life, there was no such plot. Xu Chen must not get hurt.
After all, they could not interfere with this heavenly tribulation.
Inside the field, Xu Chen looked at the formed elixir and directly stored it in a bottle.
Then he raised his head to look at the sky and found that lightning was already flashing above.
Silver thunderbolts struck continuously, and the roaring sound never ceased.
The explosive sound was as if right beside their ears.
Calamity urged anxiously, "Xu Chen, if you cannot hold on, just throw away this elixir." Xu Chen smiled, "A small heavenly tribulation, why would I fear it?"
While thinking, Xu Chen summoned the Divine Jade Battle Armor in front of everyone's shocked gaze.
He was thinking that the Profound Spirit Divine Jade was originally just ordinary spirit jade.
Later, it transformed by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth and spiritual energy.
Now, this heavenly tribulation contains both the essence of heaven and earth and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
So, does the Divine Jade Battle Armor mean it can absorb this and then upgrade?"Vroom!"
The moment he finished thinking, he moved his spiritual sense, and the Divine Jade Battle Armor covered his skin.
In the blink of an eye, a faint luster appeared on Xu Chen's body, crystal clear and extraordinarily sacred.
The big shots outside the Calamity Field saw this and were immediately shocked, saying, "What a wonderful battle armor, it can even merge with the body."
Yes, it seems completely integrated, crystal clear, and the material is very special.
Compared to Xu Chen's Divine Jade Battle Armor, Ye Xuan's Thousand Scale Armor is indeed somewhat inferior."For a moment, many powerful figures could not help but exclaim in wonder, nodding repeatedly. Even they could not help but want to own such a battle armor! Ye Xuan gritted his teeth and snorted, "Dare to wear battle armor to resist the heavenly tribulation? The heavenly tribulation is a calamity; how can your small armor block it?" Xu Chen's eyes showed anticipation. Of course, he knew the heavenly tribulation would ignore treasures and strike his body directly. However, the protective aura is also part of his body, and the heavenly tribulation cannot ignore it."Boom!"
The moment he finished speaking, the protective aura and the Divine Jade Battle Armor had completely wrapped Xu Chen. Soon, the first red heavenly tribulation suddenly fell from above, striking Xu Chen. Xu Chen's protective aura directly reduced fifty percent of the damage and then reflected one hundred percent of the damage. Combined with Xu Chen's Grade Seven Early Stage physique, this first thunderbolt didn't even make a single hair on him fall. Instead, Xu Chen saw some lightning enter the Divine Jade Battle Armor, making its color smoother.
Even the aura of the Divine Jade Battle Armor increased imperceptibly.
Xu Chen's eyes brightened slightly. It works, great. Then, Xu Chen raised his head and shouted loudly, "A small heavenly tribulation, is that it? Bring more, I think there are too few." The female protagonists: "..."
Don't do this, Xu Chen. The Heavenly Dao has spirit.
If you say this, it might really cause trouble. There were martial artists in the past who provoked the Heavenly Dao, and then they were gone.
The crowd heard this and their corners of the mouth twitched slightly. Big brother, you are truly awesome. We have seen so many people cross the heavenly tribulation, but this is the first time we have seen someone provoke the heavenly tribulation.
You really think you are dying too slowly!"Boom!"
As everyone expected, the next heavenly tribulation descended even faster, with greater momentum. Shangguan Luoyun gasped, "This is not an ordinary orange heavenly tribulation; it has increased by one-tenth."
The crowd also looked stunned. Did the Heavenly Dao really get angry? Damn!
Xu Chen can be considered the first person in history! Soon, the second orange heavenly tribulation struck Xu Chen, but Xu Chen was still fine.
The aura of the Divine Jade Battle Armor increased slightly again.
Xu Chen still thought it was too slow, "Have you not eaten? Huh? Why not come all at once? Damn it, why is the heavenly tribulation so trashy?" The crowd: "..."
Awesome! Truly awesome!
Truly a young calf that fears no tiger! Just treat the heavenly tribulation like an idiot. The female protagonists were also numb. Stop cursing, Brother Chen, we are really afraid you will get hurt."Boom!"
"Boom!"
This time, the Heavenly Dao seemed to hear Xu Chen's shout and sent two heavenly tribulations at once. The yellow and green heavenly tribulations fell simultaneously for the first time, striking Xu Chen heavily. The hearts of the crowd also jumped violently with this strike. Because they had truly never seen the strange sight of two heavenly tribulations descending at the same time. Their mouths were slightly open, and they even wanted to give an award to Xu Chen at this moment. The Award for Cursing the Heavenly Tribulation belongs to no one but Xu Chen.
In an instant, the third and fourth heavenly tribulations also struck Xu Chen heavily. Two heavenly tribulations descending simultaneously, their power was extremely fierce. This time, Xu Chen was finally injured.
He bared his teeth and sucked in a cold breath, "To be honest, the skin is broken, and it really hurts a bit." The crowd: "..." The crowd was a bit dumbfounded.
This damn thing only broke the skin? Holy shit!
Is your body-protecting aura and physical body too monstrous?
This is already an enhanced heavenly tribulation, big brother! Ye Xuan, who had wanted to mock Xu Chen, felt numb seeing this scene. How could he possibly mock him now?
"Is this bastard Xu Chen too monstrous?" "Are there three more? Come on, give me some quick pain." Xu Chen extended his middle finger, provoking the Heavenly Dao.
He vaguely realized that after his physical body was breached just now, it seemed he could also absorb the power of the heavenly tribulation. Although most of the power was absorbed by the Divine Jade Battle Armor, a small part could still strengthen his physical body. If this were the case, he could not let this opportunity slip away. "Boom!"
"Boom!"
