Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 140
Chapter 140: Yan Wang Heart-devouring Pill
When the Three-Colored Pill Thunder appeared, everyone knew the victor was decided.
Gu Yuan and Han Jun’s faces instantly turned deathly pale.
The two exchanged a glance, understanding each other’s intentions. They simultaneously closed their eyes, two peculiar waves appearing.
Han Yi and the other two on the high platform’s faces changed.
They knew what the two wanted to do.
Ye Yu naturally also sensed that peculiar wave; it was not anything else, but Soul Power!
In the next instant, Gu Yuan and Han Jun’s Soul Power attacked Ye Yu from both sides.
“Presumptuous! ” Xuan Lin roared. These two dared to use such underhanded methods in front of them, clearly not taking them seriously.
However, they were far apart, and even Xuan Lin and the others could not arrive in a short time.
Other spectators could vaguely feel a power gathering in the plaza but did not know what was happening, thinking it was caused by the Three-Colored Pill Thunder.
After all, among those present, the vast majority had never seen a Three-Colored Pill Thunder.
Feeling the surging Soul Power, Ye Yu coldly snorted, his Earth Realm Peak Soul Power erupting.
Gu Yuan and Han Jun’s faces changed simultaneously, spitting out bl00d as they flew backward.
The Alchemy Furnaces in front of them instantly went out, and the Pill Thunder that was about to fall dissipated, the Pill Fragrance ceasing.
“They failed! ” The watching people were stunned by this sudden change.
Only Xuan Lin and the others on the high platform knew what had happened.
“No wonder he could refine a pill that attracted Three-Colored Pill Thunder; he possesses Earth Realm Peak Soul Power. Han Yi, did you know all along? ” Xuan Lin looked at Han Yi with a strange expression.
He felt like he had been tricked; his Seven Illusory Spirit Fruits were swindled away.
Gu Yuan and Han Jun’s faces were ashen; they hadn’t destroyed Ye Yu’s pill, but their seven days of hard work had been wasted.
They had also wasted a batch of medicinal herbs for a Seventh-Rank High-Grade pill.
To refine a Seventh-Rank High-Grade pill, the Spirit Herbs couldn’t be ordinary. Even the two of them had prepared for a long time; their value was at least hundreds of millions of Spirit Stones.
Especially Han Jun; without the Zi Xiao Sword Sect’s backing, those Spirit Herbs were almost all his assets.
Having dealt with the two, Ye Yu looked up at the sky. This was his first time refining such a high-grade pill and his first time facing Three-Colored Pill Thunder. Ye Yu never dared to be careless about the unknown.
As the thunderclouds grew thicker, the towering pillar of light from Ye Yu’s Alchemy Furnace dissipated, and an indescribable stench instantly spread.
Unlike the Pill Fragrance of others, the smell from Ye Yu’s furnace made those below Transformation God Late Stage feel dizzy and nauseous, as if their spiritual energy was being eroded.
Lingyunzi frowned, quickly waving his hand to use his Domain to envelop the people of the Zi Xiao Sword Sect.
Others also reacted and used their spiritual energy to resist the smell.
On the high platform, Xuan Lin twitched his mouth, “This guy… he actually refined a Poison Pill! ”
Han Yi and Mo Ran were also amused; no one had ever refined a Poison Pill at the Alchemy Conference before.
Ye Yu looked at the purple-black pill in the furnace and smiled slightly. This pill was called the Yan Wang Heart-Devouring Pill, a Poison Pill created by Dan Chenzi.
This Poison Pill’s effect was terrifying. Even a Great Power at the Void Refinement Stage would die if they didn’t receive timely treatment.
However, Dan Chenzi hadn’t perfected it, causing the pill to have a strong smell. The only way was for someone to absorb its odor during its formation.
Ye Yu certainly wouldn’t experiment with a Poison Pill capable of poisoning a Void Refinement Stage cultivator on himself, so the Alchemy Conference participants were the best absorbers.
The stench gradually dissipated until it was almost imperceptible. The originally purple-black pill in the furnace had turned jet black.
Gu Yuan and Han Jun’s faces were ashen, quickly sitting down and circulating their spiritual energy to treat their poison.
Boom!
At that moment, the long-brewing Pill Thunder struck.
“Wasn’t he prepared? ” The crowd realized that Ye Yu hadn’t made any preparations to receive the Pill Thunder.
They didn’t know the terror of the Three-Colored Pill Thunder, but they knew the power of a Seventh-Rank High-Grade Pill Thunder was enough to crush any Transformation God Mid Stage cultivator.
Much less a Three-Colored one.
The lightning struck, illuminating Pill Seeking City like daylight. Many people’s faces turned pale; even from afar, they could sense the terrifying power.
But Ye Yu closed his eyes, his mind filled with the image of a figure shrouded in a Thunder Sea in the Zi Xiao Sword Tomb that day.
The thunder struck, and the crowd realized there was no terrifying explosion, nor did it raise any dust.
Ye Yu was bathed in thunder, enjoying it. The thunder, a ferocious beast in others’ eyes, was like nourishment to Ye Yu, continuously nurturing his Physical Body.
Crack!
Ye Yu seemed to hear a shattering sound from within him; the fourth Thunder Dragon Mark was completely formed.
The thunderclouds dissipated. Ye Yu opened his eyes, exhaled, clenched his fist, and casually punched the void.
Others didn’t think much of it, but Lingyunzi, who had been watching Ye Yu, narrowed his eyes. The power of that single punch made him feel a sense of danger.
Ye Yu felt the power within him, nodded in satisfaction. His Illusory Dragon Wind Thunder Body had truly reached mastery; the power of his Physical Body alone was comparable to that of an average Transformation God Late Stage cultivator!
Then, Ye Yu looked at the Yan Wang Heart-Devouring Pill in the Alchemy Furnace, took a deep breath, his palm glowing green, and carefully took it out.
The Yan Wang Heart-Devouring Pill dissolves upon contact with flesh! Ye Yu didn’t want to take any chances.
The entire plaza was silent, everyone looking at the three on the high platform.
The situation was clear: Ye Yu’s pill was the highest grade and most perfect, but since it was a Poison Pill, it was up to Xuan Lin and the others to judge.
After a long time, Han Yi slowly walked forward, looked at the crowd below, and said, “This year’s Alchemy Conference Champion, Zi Xiao Sword Sect’s Ye Yu! ”
After her words, the plaza was unusually quiet; everyone waited to see if Han Yi would say the next part.
Lingyunzi was nervously clenching his fists, staring intently at Han Yi’s mouth, madly shouting in his heart, “Say it, say it, quickly invite the Saint Son to join the Alchemist Alliance! ”
However, Han Yi showed no intention of speaking further, but said to Ye Yu, “Come and receive your Alchemy Conference reward. ”
After her words, Lingyunzi’s face fell. Even the Saint Son couldn’t join the Alchemist Alliance?
