Chapter 137: Pill Fire Fills the Sky, Dragon and Tiger Meet

~8 min read 1,457 words

Seeing that lightning, Lin Xuan did not dodge, but instead his body plummeted suddenly.

The roof shattered instantly.

The next moment, illusory flames surged directly out from the room.

It was as if the entire room had ignited into a raging inferno.

A scorching aura, even more terrifying than before, appeared once again, affecting the entire Longhu Mountain.

The incoming lightning bolts plunged into the flames and were extinguished in an instant.

Lin Xuan, shrouded in red Pill fire, looked at the Pill floating before him.

The fusion was still ongoing; it was unclear how much longer it would take.

Moreover, the appearance of the Pill fire had already affected the fusion of the Pill.

According to Lin Xuan's thoughts, natural fusion would naturally yield the most top-tier result.

Since there was an opportunity, he did not want to give it up.

After this wave of lightning was extinguished by the Pill fire, no more lightning fell, but the clouds overhead pressed down even lower.

"Troublesome!"

Lin Xuan retracted the Pill fire, raised his hand to grasp at the air, and held the Pill in his palm.

Since it had come to this, he would see if this lightning truly dared not come for him.

Grasping the Pill, Lin Xuan shot into the sky, leaped out from the large hole he had previously smashed through, and headed straight for the thunderclouds.

In an instant, Lin Xuan, draped in white feathered robes, was seen by many.

But in the blink of an eye, he passed through a gap in the clouds and vanished from sight.

Below, Lao Tianshi and the others stared with wide eyes.

"Tianshi, do you know how to fly like that?"

Lu Jin asked with a dazed expression.

"I do not!"

Tianshi said with a dark face.

He did know escape techniques, after all.

But he was human.

To rise from the ground and reach the clouds like that.

That could no longer be considered human.

It was no wonder that in ancient times, there was always the title of Land Immortal.

Never mind ancient times; even at this moment, such a person would likely be regarded as an Immortal by many.

Thinking of this, Tianshi took out his phone to notify Rong Shan, telling Rong Shan to seal the mountain temporarily.

Although the speed just now was very fast, it was inevitable that others had seen it.

If this were filmed and uploaded to the internet, the Company would likely explode.

But by now, the Alien Forum had already exploded.

"Holy crap, come quick and look at the Immortal!"

Below the title of a post was an image of a blurry white figure about to enter the clouds.

"OP, where did you get this screenshot? From what TV show?"

"This is too fake. With this image quality, did you take it with a landline phone?"

A series of replies followed below.

"Damn it, if it's fake, I'll eat shit—ten pounds of it!"

"Damn, so it was just a scam for attention!"

This post was still being discussed, but in an instant, a large string of posts appeared, with the figure captured from various angles.

After all, with such a bizarre scene in the sky, many people had already taken out their phones to film.

Although the time was only about a second, they had indeed captured it.

Then, the Alien Forum blew up.

The Company naturally received the news at the first opportunity.

"Contact the Temporary Worker in the Northeast Region immediately and seal off the news!"

Zhao Zong was numb; he gave the order directly.

Soon, while the Alien Forum was still bustling, all posts related to Longhu Mountain vanished in an instant.

If one tried to post again, it would go through, but it would not be displayed.

"Damn, they've sealed the news; it looks like it's real."

"It was already..."

People were not stupid; such a situation clearly indicated that they knew someone had stepped in to intervene.

But this, in turn, proved that the matter was likely true.

Yet even the newly opened discussion threads disappeared immediately.

The heat vanished from the forum, but it began to spread throughout the world of Outsiders.

If you can't use the forum, can't you use a phone?

Many people began contacting friends on Longhu Mountain to ask about the situation.

Even the Ten Elders received calls.

However, Lin Xuan knew nothing of this, nor did he care.

His figure had already pierced through the thunderclouds and arrived above them.

Looking at the sea of clouds below, he raised his hand and tossed the Pill in his hand.

The Pill floated before him, and the sea of clouds below began to churn.

Yet in the eyes of those below, the thunderclouds in the sky were surging, as if there were something inside the clouds.

Lin Xuan's gaze was fixed on the sea of clouds below, floating right beside this Pill.

The sea of clouds kept churning, appearing ready to move, but it never took action.

Lin Xuan did not take the initiative to strike either, but instead waited for the Pill to form.

However, whether this thundercloud was some kind of Restriction or had some will behind it, since it appeared because of this Pill, it certainly would not give up.

It seemed that because he was not making any moves, it was holding back, but since it had appeared, there would definitely be changes in the end.

Just as Lin Xuan had expected.

As the Pill became more perfectly integrated, the sea of clouds below churned more violently.

It even rose in altitude.

The corners of Lin Xuan's mouth curled upward.

Couldn't hold back anymore?

But it was already too late.

Why did he carry the Pill to such a high altitude? Because if the alchemy fire were unleashed on Longhu Mountain, it would affect too many people.

Once the range of the alchemy fire was too large, it would inevitably cause an impact on others.

In other words, it would lead to collateral damage.

This was something Lin Xuan did not want to see.

Therefore, only here could he fully unleash his capabilities.

If the thunderclouds had reacted like this from the beginning, he would have had to think of other ways.

But now, that was no longer necessary.

Looking at the Pill before him, Lin Xuan raised his hand, the back of his hand striking the Pill.

The Pill received the force and shot straight into the sky.

The next moment, the thunderclouds rolled, thunder roared loudly, and the reaction was shockingly fast.

But the next instant, a sea of fire completely spread out with Lin Xuan at its center.

The thunderclouds shrouded Longhu Mountain, covering a vast area, but the sea of fire was even larger.

In an instant, it completely covered the thunderclouds in the sky.

The alchemy fire was like an extra layer of orange-red rosy clouds above the thunderclouds.

Although the alchemy fire was called fire, it was actually Qi.

After being unleashed, in the eyes and senses of others, although it was also flame, it was actually like orange-red mist.

And at this moment, a spectacle appeared over Longhu Mountain.

Ordinary people around Longhu Mountain could see it clearly.

The thunderclouds, with thunder roaring loudly, saw incandescent lightning appear within them; every time it appeared, it seemed to tear the thunderclouds apart completely.

But above these terrifying-looking thunderclouds, a layer of even larger orange-red mist drifted.

It was ethereal, yet it did not dissipate.

It was as if a lid had been added above the thunderclouds.

Many people took out their mobile phones wanting to take pictures and post them on social media, only to find that their phones seemed to be lagging.

Quite a few people did take out cameras to film.

This, however, had no effect.

On Longhu Mountain, everyone looked up at the sky, then at the orange-red mist hanging down from the edges of the thunderclouds.

One by one, they were stunned.

Damn, what on earth is happening?

The culprit, Lin Xuan, was looking up at the Pill at this moment.

The original churning of the thunderclouds had been timed perfectly; with the delay of the alchemy fire covering them, the Pill was already formed.

Perfectly integrated, golden patterns appeared and disappeared on the Pill; at a glance, it seemed as if a dragon was soaring and a tiger was leaping upon it.

Just as he thought this, the dragon's roar and tiger's howl that had appeared before emerged once again.

The previously calmed Pill underwent another change; two phantoms were seen leaping directly out from the Pill, rushing into the high sky, intersecting and entangling, and charging straight into the heavens.
