Chapter 314 Active VolcanoTang Zhen's idea was ultimately not realized.
It’s not that Xiao Yun doesn’t have the ability, but these medicinal herbs limit him.
The medicinal materials that were originally only of the seventh-grade high-level elixir were able to be refined into the eighth grade because of Xiao Yun's powerful heavenly soul and alchemy skills. Even if they were improved a little, they would only be fixed at the eighth grade with six colors.
Yes, eight levels and six colors. The dark clouds rolling in the sky eventually showed six colors.
"It's a pity..."
Sitting cross-legged in front of the medicine cauldron, looking at the red and round pill inside, Xiao Yun said lightly.
If the quality of the medicinal materials can be raised to a higher level during this alchemy, it is not impossible to reach the eighth grade.
However, although he was somewhat dissatisfied, the people in the stands were already boiling with excitement at this moment, and everyone's face was extremely rosy, as if they had drunk a bottle of high-concentration liquor.
"Is this the value of Zhongzhou's number one genius alchemist? A seventh-grade advanced medicine can actually be refined into an eighth-grade six-color one!"
"Elder Xiao's talent in alchemy is truly extraordinary. I'm afraid that in a few years, he will become one of the three giants of Danta..."
A look of joy also emerged on Tang Zhen's face. Although he said that the ninth grade was the best, he actually thought that an intermediate eighth grade would be enough. However, he did not expect that Xiao Yun had refined another eighth-grade six-color pill!
Such a precious pill is extremely valuable to him. After Tang Huoer takes this pill, his cultivation aptitude will surely skyrocket, and it is not impossible for him to become the number one person in the Western Region of Zhongzhou in the future!
"Master Xiao, do you need me to block this pill thunder?"
Then, Tang Zhen asked out loud. Although he knew that Xiao Yun was much stronger than him and also had the method to attract thunder, it would not be wrong to ask and help.
As expected, Xiao Yun waved his hand and refused, "Thank you for your kindness, Master Tang, but I'll do these Dan Lei myself!"
He did not use his own life thunderbolt, firstly because there were many people here, ordinary pill thunderbolts were fine, but now it was black magic thunderbolt! The alchemist could recognize it at a glance, and combined with the previous, it was not difficult for a smart person to guess that the former had an evolved fighting skill.
The second reason is because of the black magic thunder. The ordinary colored thunder can't play much role in the natal thunder.
Immediately, Xiao Yun's figure flashed, and he took the initiative to fly into the thundercloud, using all his strength to practice his skills and began to absorb the thunder.
"Boom!"
Thunder roared, and everyone saw colorful lightning flashing in the thunderclouds. Faintly, they could also see a figure moving through it.
"Hiss! I've long heard that Master Xiao's Dan Qi is unparalleled, but I never thought that now, the eighth-grade six-color Dan Lei can't do anything to him..."
Actively absorbing thunder, such a fierce scene was quite a shock to the alchemists present.
Why is it that the Dan Lei that they usually have to avoid is chasing after Xiao Yun?
Soon, the sound of thunder continued for a full half a quarter of an hour, until the thunderclouds became much thinner, revealing the sky behind them, but it still could not do anything to Xiao Yun.
When he flew out from the thundercloud, he still looked like a handsome young man, and the exquisite alchemist robe on his body did not even have a wrinkle!
"Hahaha! Master Xiao is as powerful as ever!"
Seeing that he was safe and sound, Tang Zhen was the first to greet him with a hearty laugh, and then the group of alchemists followed closely.
"Master Tang, you are too kind..." Xiao Yun waved his hand, indicating that these were all basic operations. He then turned his gaze towards the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron and flicked his finger, and the lid of the cauldron flew up automatically.
Still as usual, a stream of fiery red light flew out, obviously trying to escape, but Xiao Yun simply waved his hand, and the space here moved instantly. The sky was spinning, and the stream of light that was originally rushing towards the sky suddenly flew into his hands.
With a gentle shake, the red-gold Dou Qi flowed, the light dissipated, revealing the red pill inside.
When the red pill realized there was no hope of escape, a faint spiritual mist seeped out from its surface and lingered around the pill. Faintly, it actually condensed into a small red dragon, roaring silently at Tang Zhen and others who were coming towards it.
"It is worthy of being an eighth-grade six-color elixir. It has already given birth to spiritual intelligence and can even condense into a elixir shape!"
Many alchemists' eyes lit up and they focused their gazes on the little red dragon. For them, this was the first time they had seen an eighth-grade elixir!
"Master Tang, take a look at this pill. Are you satisfied?"
Xiao Yun flipped his hand and took out a mutton-fat jade bottle from the storage ring, stuffed the pill into it, snapped his fingers, and a stream of light shot out, finally hovering in front of Tang Zhen.
"Master Xiao's move naturally satisfies me greatly, but this pill can be used by us for observation!"
Tang Zhen poured out the red pill with a smile and let it lie in the palm of his hand. Although he was not a pharmacist, he was able to appreciate the pills out of his love for the profession.
What's more, there was a large group of alchemists beside him, and they all surrounded him without him having to call them.
Smelling the fragrance of the elixir and looking at this elixir of excellent quality, everyone kept exclaiming in amazement, as if they were seeing a holy object.
Everyone just watched until the pill's spiritual energy was about to be lost. Tang Zhen reluctantly put away the pill, "Master Xiao's medicine refining skills have probably reached more than one level now..." Thoughts flashed through his mind, Tang Zhen turned to look at the others, and said with a smile: "Everyone, since the medicine refining is over, please go back. Master Xiao has other things to do."
"Valley Master Tang is right..." Upon hearing this, no matter how much everyone wanted to talk to Xiao Yun, they could only turn around and leave.
Being able to watch someone refine medicine is already a great blessing. If you disturb someone's breakthrough, you would be ungrateful!
After everyone else left, Tang Zhen turned his gaze back to Xiao Yun and said with a smile, "Master Xiao, we have found a place with abundant fire energy. It is the place where our ancestor practiced seclusion and broke through in the past. I believe it should meet your requirements."
"Is this the place where Ancestor Huoyun is in seclusion? Then wouldn't the Ancestor be..." Xiao Yun hesitated.
Being chosen by Patriarch Huoyun as a place for retreat, the energy and safety are naturally beyond reproach. Although the fire attribute energy is not the most abundant, it is at least among the top ones.
What Xiao Yun was worried about was that he had occupied the retreat place of the Fire Cloud Patriarch, so what would the latter do? Moreover, retreat places were usually very private.
"Haha, Xiaoyun, don't worry too much. I have not been practicing there for a long time..."
Before Tang Zhen could speak, a wave of waves came, and an old voice suddenly sounded from the void. It was the voice of Ancestor Huoyun.
Hearing this, Xiao Yun also breathed a sigh of relief and said loudly: "Thank you, ancestor!"
“No need to thank me, I hope you can break through to Dou Sheng as soon as possible. The waters of this continent have been muddied…”
As soon as he finished speaking, the fluctuation disappeared. Obviously, the consciousness of Patriarch Huoyun had left.
"The water has been muddied? It seems that the Soul Palace has been making too much noise recently, and has been noticed by Patriarch Huoyun."
Thoughts flashed through Xiao Yun's mind, and his face showed a pensive look. From this point of view, it seems that the Soul Palace is not simply speeding up the process of collecting souls, but has started the millennium plan in advance!
"The plot has been sped up... Hey, I don't know what happened to the Lingshi and Yao tribes. If they are destroyed, I don't dare to go to the Yao tribe..."
Tang Zhen, who was standing by, saw that he was lost in thought and did not say anything to disturb him until he came to his senses.
"I'm sorry, Valley Master Tang, I was distracted just now." Xiao Yun clasped his fists and apologized.
"It's okay, it's okay. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry..." Tang Zhen waved his hand and said with a smile: "Master Xiao, do you need to think about it for a while?"
"No need, Master Tang, please take me to the retreat place!"
……
This is an active volcano. The thunderous roar spreads in all directions. The blackish red magma wrapped in thick black smoke continuously flows out from the top, leaving thousands of red scratches in the air.
Suddenly, two streaks of red-gold light flashed across the sky like lightning, tearing through the void. In the blink of an eye, they came from the edge of the sky to the sky above the active volcano.
"Master Xiao, this is where my ancestor used to practice seclusion. Follow this volcano to the center of the earth. There is extremely rich earth fire energy there, which will definitely allow you to break through in one fell swoop."
Tang Zhen waved his hand to knock away the gushing magma and said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun nodded slightly. Even though he hadn't entered yet, the fighting spirit in his body had already begun to become active and boiling. In the Central Plains, only the Scorching Fire Mountains had such a strong fire attribute.
"Thank you, Master Tang. I am very satisfied with this place."
"As long as Master Xiao is satisfied..." Tang Zhen smiled and continued, "But Master Xiao, you have to be careful in the center of the earth. Although there are no other creatures in it, there will be magma undercurrents gushing out from time to time.
The power of the magma undercurrent is so strong that even an ordinary Dou Zun cannot withstand it. Even if you are a semi-saint, if you are hit by the magma undercurrent while practicing, I am afraid it will not be very comfortable. "
"Don't worry, I will be careful! If there is any accident, I will also send a signal to inform the ancestor."
After he finished speaking, Xiao Yun no longer waited. He stepped lightly on the void and rushed out like lightning. The red-gold Dou Qi in his body also surged out and turned into a Dou Qi barrier to resist the magma in front of him.
"Pfft..."
With a muffled sound, Xiao Yun's body completely entered the volcano. The magma around him began to surge, trying to swallow him up.
However, based on the temperature of the magma, it was just a bubble bath for Xiao Yun, who possessed the strange fire. He was like a fish entering the sea, flowing freely in the magma, his body rapidly surging towards the center of the earth.
In the outside world, after seeing Xiao Yun enter the volcano without any accident, Tang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. However, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he set up a space barrier around the volcano.
"Although there are almost no people coming here, we still need to be careful. A warning barrier will be built. Whether it is an outsider coming here or Master Xiao coming out of retreat, I will know it immediately..."
After finishing everything, he turned and left.
