"How dare you!"
Suddenly confronted with such a situation, Zhu Fei’s eyes brimd with sharp cold light.
Without the slightest hesitation, his fingertips erupted in streaks of five-colored radiance, instantly enveloping the entire Pill Furnace.
In an instant, the Pill Furnace, which had been in an extrely violent state, was forcibly subdued.
Zhu Fei’s Dharma Seal did not stop, and as the runes flickered, they quickly rged into the phantom shadows of the Pills within the Pill Furnace.
Around the phantom shadows of those Pills, a Barrier suddenly appeared as if enveloping them, rendering the raging Pill Demons outside helpless despite their howling and ravaging.
"Dare to pry into my Pills, die!"
Zhu Fei’s tone was as cold as ice. Without waiting for the black cloud to react, the Divine Blue Netherworld Fire had already transford into a vast net and, in an instant, ensnared all the Pill Demons within.
For a ti, only the continuous wail of agony was heard as ghastly, contorted faces struggled desperately within the net of the Divine Blue Netherworld Fire.
Before long, the black clouds gradually faded and eventually, along with the flashes of lightning and fire, completely vanished.
However, Zhu Fei dared not be careless; he knew the greatest challenge in this Alchemy session was yet to co, and even those Pill Demons might reappear under such conditions.
With this thought, Zhu Fei’s hand movents grew even faster and more urgent.
Due to the interference from the Pill Demons earlier, only eight of the original twelve Pill shadows remained in the Pill Furnace.
Zhu Fei had to ensure these eight Pill embryos were protected in the upcoming processes.
Otherwise, when the real Tribulation struck, whether these eight Pill embryos could withstand the bombardnt of the heavenly laws was truly uncertain.
Should that tragedy occur, it would an Zhu Fei’s failure in this Alchemy session.
Zhu Fei could never accept such failure. Therefore, at this mont, he was practically exerting his full power.
Streaks of light interwoven, mysterious and enigmatic Pill patterns continuously flickered on the surface of the Pill Furnace, eventually rging into those eight Pill shadows.
Gradually, the eight Pill shadows began to solidify, their surfaces slowly turning from glaze to a brighter, jade-like luster.
Finally, after another half-month passed, the eight Pills within the Pill Furnace had completely ford, emitting an extrely dazzling jade radiance!
A rich fragrance, intense to its limits, also began to emanate from the Pill Furnace at this ti.
Even Tianxing Venerable and others who were guarding outside could clearly sll this fragrance.
Is the Alchemy about to succeed?
Slling this fragrance, Tianxing Venerable, always placid-faced, couldn’t help but show a hint of nervousness now.
Truth be told, in the beginning, Tianxing Venerable hadn’t held much hope for Zhu Fei.
The main reason she allowed Zhu Fei to try and help with her Alchemy was that her ti was running short.
In less than a year, she, Tianxing Venerable, would face the Ascension Heavenly Tribulation, which would descend upon her.
Without the assistance of an Immortal Ascension Pill by then, she truly wasn’t confident she could survive that Ascension Heavenly Tribulation.
However, now, facing the imminent success of Zhu Fei’s Immortal Ascension Pill, Tianxing Venerable felt conflicted for the first ti.
She knew that at such critical monts, accidents were all the more frequent.
If Zhu Fei accidentally failed the Pill concoction...
Tianxing Venerable didn’t dare to imagine further; her beautiful eyes were tightly fixed on the secret chamber where Zhu Fei was, her hands unconsciously clenched tight.
"Boom!"
At that mont, massive clouds suddenly appeared above the secret chamber where Zhu Fei was located.
The clouds were deeply black, oppressive, terrifying, mysterious...
Strands of a destructive force continuously converged within them, weaving together a series of horrifyingly powerful auras.
"Pill... Pill Tribulation!"
Tianxing Venerable suddenly stood up from his seat, his snow-like white hair moving of its own accord.
At that mont, he felt an urge to rush into the secret chamber where Zhu Fei was, and personally fend off this terrifying wave of Pill Tribulation.
However, this thought rely flickered in his mind before he promptly discarded it.
Tianxing Venerable knew clearly that if he rushed into the secret chamber where Zhu Fei was, he would not only be unable to help Zhu Fei, but might also ruin the great situation due to his own rashness.
After all, being a being at the Great Success Peak of cultivation, Tianxing Venerable managed to adjust his emotions after the initial discomfort.
No matter what, he had already done his best; the rest would be left to Zhu Fei.
With this thought, Tianxing Venerable’s face regained its calmness, and he sat down cross-legged again.
...
Inside the secret chamber, Zhu Fei stared at the tribulation clouds above his head, his expression exceptionally solemn.
Because just previously, the very mont he successfully refined the Immortal Ascension Pill, various minor Pill Tribulations and the Pill Demon that had appeared earlier unexpectedly ravaged his Pill Furnace again.
Eight dium-quality Immortal Ascension Pills were directly lost to that wave of minor Pill Tribulation and Pill Demon—five pills were lost.
Now, in his Pill Furnace, only three Immortal Ascension Pills remained.
Furthermore, these three Immortal Ascension Pills still had to undergo the so-called great Pill Tribulation.
If they could successfully survive this great Pill Tribulation, then these three Immortal Ascension Pills would be upgraded to First Grade superior Immortal Pills.
If they couldn’t, the outco need not be ntioned.
"Boom—"
A thunderous noise resounded, and a rainbow-colored thunderbolt violently struck directly towards the Pill Furnace in front of Zhu Fei!
Zhu Fei dared not delay, his hands quickly forming seals.
Dreamlike starlight rapidly gathered above the three pills inside the Pill Furnace.
Another "boom" sounded as the rainbow thunderbolt ferociously smashed onto the starlight.
Instantaneously, the starlight began to crack, a web of cracks rapidly spreading across it like a spider’s web.
In no ti, the starlight conjured by Zhu Fei completely shattered, and then the weakened rainbow thunderbolt fiercely struck the three Immortal Ascension Pills.
The three Immortal Ascension Pills vibrated intensely, emitting extrely dazzling pill spirit light, spinning rapidly inside the Pill Furnace.
Their surfaces flickered with thunder light, but inside, they were like sponges, actually absorbing the residual rainbow thunderbolt directly into their pill bodies.
This was why Zhu Fei could accurately judge the intensity of each Pill Tribulation and make the most precise decisions.
After all, being an Alchemist during a pill’s tribulation, one could not possibly stop the Pill Tribulation with one’s own strength.
Doing so would not only fail to make the Pill Tribulation disappear, but would also cause it to beco increasingly intense until it completely destroyed the pills.
Thus, as a qualified Alchemist, one’s job is not to stop the Pill Tribulation but to accurately gauge the strength of each Pill Tribulation.
Helping to resist too much would prevent the pill from experiencing the necessary intensity of the Pill Tribulation, thus it would not disappear.
On the contrary, helping too little might allow the pill to be unable to withstand the Pill Tribulation, causing it to be destroyed directly under it.
Thus, this balance must be carefully controlled by the Alchemist himself, which is also a asure of a true Alchemist’s skill.
At this mont, the three Immortal Ascension Pills had successfully survived six waves of Pill Tribulation with Zhu Fei’s help.
Just as the seventh wave of Pill Tribulation was about to descend over the secret chamber, Zhu Fei’s mana suddenly beca chaotic.
Following that, waves of negative emotions like tidal waves abruptly surged from the bottom of his heart.
This is bad! Is this... the Heart Demon Tribulation!
