Chapter 278 Alchemy Beast
"Qinglin, what happened?"Just as Qinglin finished explaining, Medusa and Ziyan flashed over and asked with some concern.
"Nothing..." Xiao Yun followed Qing Lin's gaze and looked over there, but all he saw was a mess.
"Qinglin, she said there was a white shadow that flashed by, and it looked like a kitten."
"Kitten?" After hearing Xiao Yun's explanation, the two girls, who were already somewhat confused, suddenly became even more confused. The third floor of the Dan Palace was filled with poisonous gas that could corrode Dou Qi! What kind of kitten could survive here?
"It just looks like a cat. If I guess correctly, it should actually be a Dan beast."
Xiao Yun turned his head, his eyes moving back and forth, looking for traces of the Dan beast, while explaining: "The so-called Dan beast is a small beast transformed from a pill, usually only high-grade pills can change shape.
Each Dan beast is generally formed from a pill that has experienced at least seven colors of Dan thunder. The higher the grade of the pill, the smarter the Dan beast will be, and the stronger it will be!"
"The elixir can actually change shape!" It was the first time for the three girls to hear such a thing, and they all showed shock on their faces. Zi Yan even said, "Then this elixir beast knows how to escape, it must be very smart, right? Could it be a ninth-grade elixir?"
Hearing the little dragon's "stupid" speech, Xiao Yun glanced at the former helplessly and said: "If it is really made of a ninth-grade elixir, then it will not run away, but kill us all.
Even a newly refined ninth-grade precious pill has the strength of a semi-saint or above! So this pill beast is just a pill of less than nine colors. The owner of this relic keeps it here, probably wanting to cultivate it to the ninth grade before taking it. "
"I see!" This was the first time the three women, who were not alchemists, had heard of this knowledge. They immediately felt it was extremely novel. "So, a ninth-grade elixir must be made by a Dou Sheng? Otherwise, even if you succeed in making it, you won't be able to beat your own elixir?"
"Well, this is also the reason why there are so few ninth-grade alchemists on the mainland."
Xiao Yun nodded slowly. If promotion to the ninth rank was the same as the eighth rank, requiring only the soul realm, there wouldn't be such a shortage of ninth rank alchemists on the continent.
People like Yao Lao and Xuan Kongzi, whose soul realm has already reached the heavenly level, are still stuck at the eighth-grade peak alchemist level. This is because the second condition is too harsh and requires strength above that of a saint!
"Is it so difficult to be promoted to the ninth rank?"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. No wonder they had never heard of any rumors about the ninth rank on the continent. Even the three giants of Danta were only at the peak of the eighth rank. There was actually such a harsh reason behind it.
After a while, the three women put away their shock, and Zi Yan remembered Xiao Yun's previous words and said excitedly: "Hehe, although this pill beast is not ninth-grade, it is at least an eighth-grade seven-color pill!
Let's catch it quickly, I have never eaten an elixir of grade eight or seven colors!"
After saying this, she was ready to release her fighting spirit. Even if she had to dig three feet into the ground, she would find the pill!
"Every day, there's nothing else on your mind except eating..." Xiao Yun stopped Zi Yan's actions and said helplessly: "Don't alert the snake, this is not how you catch a Dan beast.
Although the eighth-grade elixir has little attack power, it is almost impossible for us to see it if it is hidden!"
"Then what should we do?" Everyone has their own expertise, and when it comes to dealing with the elixir beasts, the three women don't think they know as much as the eighth-grade alchemy master.
"Just stand there and watch my performance." Xiao Yun smiled slightly, took out the seventh-grade intermediate pill from the Youhai Ring and placed it in his palm.
All of a sudden, an extremely strong elixir fragrance permeated from it, and the fragrance was so strong that it soon filled the alchemy room. Zi Yan behind him was drooling at the sight of it. If it weren't for Medusa holding her back, she would have rushed forward to snatch it.
"Intermediate seventh grade! Xiaoyun, you have never given me food so good as this!" Zi Yan muttered softly.
Hearing this, Xiao Yun's forehead showed several black lines. He turned back and glared at him, then made a gesture to keep quiet.
"This little brat ate two furnaces of my seventh-grade meat a while ago, but he forgot about it so quickly!"
"rustle!"
The quiet atmosphere did not last long. Soon, a slight rustling sound was heard in the corner of the alchemy room. Then, in everyone's sight, a white figure slowly walked out of the shadows.
It was a small animal covered with white fur. Its appearance was similar to a cat as Qinglin said, but it was fatter, rounder and more furry. It looked extremely cute, and there was not a trace of energy fluctuation in its body, as if it was just an ordinary small animal.
The snow-white beast walked slowly until it was two feet away from Xiao Yun, then it stopped, staring at the round pill in his hand, and faintly heard the sound of swallowing. "Eat it." Xiao Yun smiled slightly and threw the extremely precious pill directly to the snow-white beast in front of him.
The pill drew an arc in the air and before it landed on the ground, everyone saw a flash of white lightning. When they looked away, they found that the pill had been caught by the snow-white beast.
The snow-white little beast held the pill in both hands, but did not swallow it immediately. Instead, it put it in front of its nose and sniffed it. After confirming that there was no problem, a human-like joy flashed in its eyes. It rolled its tongue and swept the pill into its mouth. With a few chewing sounds, a seventh-grade intermediate pill disappeared.
After eating a pill, the little beast continued to look at Xiao Yun. Faintly, he actually saw a flattering and coquettish look on the little beast's face.
"Eat it, I have plenty of pills!" Xiao Yun smiled and took out several seventh-grade pills from the ring again and threw them into the mouth of the snow-white little beast. The latter accepted them all and swallowed them all.
Without waiting for the other party to look up, Xiao Yun threw out several pills again, which floated in front of the snow-white beast.
When the three women behind him saw this scene, their mouths twitched. In less than a few minutes, Xiao Yun had already fed them more than a dozen seventh-grade pills!
This is not a cabbage on the street, but a seventh-grade elixir worth a fortune, which even Dou Zun would fight for! Just throw it away to feed the dog? Oh, to feed the cat?
This is because Xiao Yun is not only an eighth-grade alchemy master, but also has several elders who are also eighth-grade alchemy masters behind him, so he can withstand such consumption.
"You can eat more than me. This is such a waste!" Zi Yan said indignantly. She had to eat more than a dozen seventh-grade pills in two meals anyway!
"Big brother, let alone second brother, you two are the same, both of you can eat so much." Xiao Yun wanted to laugh when he heard it. Zi Yan also ate a lot, even more!
"Hmph! How can it compare with me? I gave you the medicinal herbs!" Zi Yan was furious and said with her fangs and claws bared.
Medusa and Qinglin also felt distressed when they saw this, but fortunately this feeding phenomenon did not last long. After the snow-white little beast ate the fifteenth seventh-grade pill, it finally could not eat any more.
I saw it propped up its hind legs with satisfaction, standing up like a human, patting its round belly with its two front paws, and its cute big eyes were full of satisfaction.
"Are you full? Come here and let me pet you!" Seeing the appearance of the snow-white little beast, Xiao Yun put away the five pills in his hand that he was about to throw out and said with a smile.
Hearing this, the snow-white little beast looked at Zi Yan behind Xiao Yun with some fear. After some hesitation, it finally remembered Xiao Yun's magnanimity just now, and walked towards him slowly.
"Not bad, you still have some conscience." When it approached, Xiao Yun gently picked it up, touched its head, and said with a smile: "Follow me from now on, I will definitely give you enough pills!"
Under his touch, the snow-white little beast stretched out comfortably, but turned its gaze towards Zi Yan.
"Hmm?" Seeing this, Xiao Yun was slightly startled, and then he remembered something and said softly: "Don't worry, I won't eat you! Right, Zi Yan?"
"Hehe, you're so cute, I definitely won't eat you!" Zi Yan laughed, but the snow-white little beast was a little scared.
"Big sister, please stop drooling."
Xiao Yun shook his head helplessly and ignored the other party. At this moment, Medusa and Qing Lin also surrounded him.
Their eyes were fixed on the snow-white little beast in Xiao Yun's arms; their eyes seemed to be shining and their love was beyond words.
"It's so cute! Zi Yan, it's so cute, how can you want to eat it!" Seeing the snow-white little beast acting cute to him, Qing Lin fell in love with it instantly.
"Tsk!" Zi Yan said that being cute is not as important as being delicious.
"Here, let you hold it!" After waving his hand and casting an isolating energy layer on the surface of the elixir beast to prevent its elixir fragrance from emanating, Xiao Yun handed it over to others.
After hesitating for a second, the snow-white little beast jumped into the arms of Qinglin, who had spoken for it earlier. Its furry body rubbed against the latter's arms, making the smile on Qinglin's face even more intense.
The same was true for Medusa beside her. It was hard to imagine that a queen known for her iron-blooded methods would show a look of joy in her eyes when facing a snow-white little beast.
"It seems that no matter how strong a woman is, she still likes furry things..." Looking at the two women touching the alchemy beast randomly, Xiao Yun shook his head helplessly, and then walked out of the alchemy room, ready to continue exploring.
