Turbulence Makes a Comeback
Yang Tian’s divine soul energy broke through to Strength Forging after cultivating for half a year – as per Ancestral Dragon Ring’s time. The size of his divine soul came up to his hip and had developed distinct facial features.
Yang Tian, sitting on thin air, fired Soul Aura from his forehead. The Mutated Beast on the surface of the crimson pill furnace wriggled. He was finally able to make good use of the furnace, evident by the fire breaker.
The region of fire within saw lightning bolts sparkling and jolting. There were two Fire Mouths at the centre of the of fire region. Flames continued to descend onto the pill. Profound Connection Realm cultivators needed one pill of Profound Connection Pill, a Rank Three High-Grade pill, in order to boost their chance of breaking through to the next layer, hence the desire for one.
“Fuse!”
Yang Tian switched the hand seals he performed. Dozens of potent waves of qi and blood burst onto the furnace. The Fire Mouths flickered. Two fire dragons with lightning around them jolted. His divine soul energy burst, and two Fire Mouths slowly closed in. Once the two Fire Mouths fused, they turned up the heat, literally. The two fire dragons also grew one-fifth larger as did the brightness of their lightning.
“Retrieve!”
With a flick of his sleeve, the Fire Mouth devoured the pill, engulfing it in fire. The pill gradually appeared more transparent as its contents purity improved.
Yang Tian could afford to expend that much energy without safety concerns. He drove his palms into the ground to send himself upward. As he rotated in the air, he clenched his fists. “Eject!”
The lid on the furnace popped off, allowing the heat, light, mist and potent transcendence pill to escape. Right as the pill was about to take form, a potent energy far drew near. Yang Tian, therefore, quickly grabbed the pill and looked over in the direction of the approaching energy.
Ancestral Dragon Ring was dyed red. In the centre of the energy source was a red Rank Five Mid-Grade bloodsoul pill. That was the fifth one Yang Xiao had refined, meaning he went through roughly millions of bloodstones. Bloodsoul pills replenished qi and blood at a rate hardly any other pill could match, so one could expect to find it for several times the cost the duo spent.
Yang Xiao spent his time concocting bloodsoul pills and lots of potions to aid in healing one’s physical body, all of which were much higher rank and grade than hundred herb divine liquid. Nevertheless, Yang Xiao felt they were insufficient against Destructive Divine Lightning. Although Ancestral Dragon Ring could assist in holding Yang Tian’s body together, he still required lots of vitality water.
The bloodsoul stone collected the qi and blood in the atmosphere, restoring the atmosphere to normal. The pill with markings glowed red, earning a pleased nod from Yang Xiao. He didn’t have a Flame Seed, thereby reducing the quality of pills he concocted considerably. A Rank Six pill would lose a lot of its potency. Fortunately, he was superior to many alchemists even in his divine soul form.
Yang Tian walked over. “Uncle Xiao, that should be enough. I still have four drops of vitality spring water. It is time to put them to use.”
“Mm, don’t use the vitality spring water. The energy is excessive, and you can’t absorb much. If you consume the transcendence pill, your strength will increase several folds, increasing your chances of success during the tribulation.”
“Let us find a place to go through it, then.”
The instant Yang Tian fell silent, somebody knocked on the door in an anxious manner. Yang Tian mumbled, “Could there be news on my brother?”
Yang Tian returned to his body and sped to the door. Noticing Meng Yunxi’s expression change, an ominous feeling hit him. It was unthinkable for her to have an issue given her authority over Myriad Auction Company. “What happened?”
“I’m going to tell you about your brother.” Meng Yunxi stepped inside and sat down. “I told you about your brother starting an assassination army, didn’t I?”
“I know. Did something happen to him?”
“Not yet. Your brother’s organisation has been quiet for some time. They’ve been targeting Li Clan’s disciples recently, probably because you haven’t been anywhere to see. They perform hit and runs on the junior disciples.”
Yang Tian blamed himself for putting his brother at risk again. He took in a deep breath to sooth his anger and erased his aggression. “How is he now?”
“As I told you before, he’s always hid his tracks – presumably by using an item. Our employee passed by Dark Forest today and found the void was sealed. There were Li Clan members outside of the formation. I would assume your brother is the one who forced them into sending out such a large team.”
Yang Tian broke his silence with his raspy voice. “How many of them are there?’
“At the very least, they need two Battle Emperor adepts to seal a void. I suppose your brother has triggered Li Clan. Li Clan only has about seven or eight Battle Emperors, so sending two is a big deal. Your brother must have something they want.”
“They sure think highly of us.”
