Chapter 151: Go Big or Go Ho
Translator: 549690339
Fang Lin raised his eyebrows, showing a hint of surprise.
“Elder Li, I didn’t expect your Li Family to have hidden such a gem.” Elder Su chuckled.
The elder of the Li Family laughed, his face filled with pride; yet he said modestly: “It’s nothing, Elder Su, you’re too kind.”
Elder Su shook his head, his eyes full of deep aning as he looked at Li Chong: “Possessing the Soul Commanding Pill Fire, not just any ordinary genius would have it.”
Ouyang Jing stood to one side, his face sowhat solemn. It was extrely surprising that Li Chong actually wielded the Soul Commanding Pill Fire.
Ouyang Jing wasn’t overly concerned though. Although Fang Lin didn’t possess the Soul Commanding Pill Fire, with his abilities, it would be no problem to get through the assessnt. He was just worried that Li Chong would steal so of the lilight.
The other young mbers of the Li Family looked awestruck and envious upon seeing Li Chong unleash the Soul Commanding Pill Fire.
After a quick inspection, Fang Lin ascertained that Li Chong’s Soul Commanding Pill Fire wasn’t self-cultivated but rather obtained from an outside source.
“All this fuss over re Soul Commanding Pill Fire.” Fang Lin’s mouth twitched slightly in disdain.
Li Chong threw a defiant look at Fang Lin.
Fang Lin ignored him and put all the ingredients for the Nurturing Breath Pill into the Pill Furnace.
“If we’re going to play, let’s play big.” Fang Lin smirked, apologizing inwardly to the Li Family mbers surrounding him.
Flas rose from beneath the Pill Furnace, but they were ordinary flas. Even though Fang Lin possessed the Soul Commanding Pill Fire, he didn’t want to show it off here.
Li Chong had been observing Fang Lin’s moves closely. Seeing him throw all the ingredients into the Pill Furnace, he knew that Fang Lin was going to use Shaking Three Mountains.
However, Li Chong had already devised counterasures. His fingers flicked again, throwing more flas which completely enveloped the Pill furnace in an instant, the fire becoming extrely vigorous.
“Such a big fire, isn’t he afraid of burning the ingredients?” Ouyang Jing exclaid.
Elder Su’s eyes narrowed. “If I’m not wrong,” he said, “Li Chong has controlled his Soul Commanding Pill Fire to go wherever he wills. Although the fire looks big, the temperature is not high.”
Ouyang Jing was puzzled. “What’s the purpose of doing so?”
Elder Su smiled. “Of course it makes sense.” He then shifted his gaze to Fang Lin.
Despite his confusion, Ouyang Jing didn’t continue to ask as Elder Su remained silent. Hence, he held his peace and watched.
The size of the flas in Fang Lin’s Pill Furnace grew rapidly. Because he didn’t have control over the temperature of the flas, the Pill Furnace ended up red hot very quickly.
Such huge flas were seen as foolish by any normal Pill Refiner. Without enough control, the ingredients in the Pill Furnace would have been burnt by now.
Fang Lin didn’t deploy the Micro Gold Pupil. A trivial Nurturing Breath Pill didn’t warrant wasting energy on using the Micro Gold Pupil. He didn’t need to see it to know what was going on inside the Pill Furnace.
Except for Fang Lin and Li Chong, everyone else from the Li family was focusing on refining their pills. They had no ti to pay attention to others.
Making five dium grade Nurturing Breath Pills was not an easy feat for these ordinarily talented individuals.
Perhaps their success rate was high when they were refining at ho. But here, in a different environnt and state of mind, their success rate would be greatly affected.
For example, a Pill Refiner used to his own Pill Furnace might find it challenging to use soone else’s Pill Furnace to refine pills.
These Li Family younglings knew they had co for the exam mostly to be extras. But they also gritted their teeth, not wanting to fail.
Failure, for a proud family, was extrely humiliating.
The mbers of the Li family who would fail the exam this ti would get a lot less attention when they ca back. The resources they could get would drop dramatically too.
One can’t bla the family for being cold-blooded and ruthless. It’s a case of survival of the fittest. The family couldn’t afford to waste resources on those with no prospects. They would only pay attention to those who were truly talented and had promise.
So, none of the Li Family mbers who ca for the assessnt wanted to fail. They belonged to a proud family and felt a deep sense of crisis amidst their pride.
Li Chong was indeed dazzling, but who amongst the other Li Family mbers didn’t aspire to be like him?
At this mont, these Li Family mbers were all sweating profusely, eyes fixated on their Pill Furnaces in front of them. No one dared to slack off fearing dire news from their Pill Furnaces.
Fang Lin closed his eyes, carefully listening to the sounds from within the Pill
Furnace.
Gulp, gulp!!!
When he heard this sound coming from the Pill Furnace, Fang Lin imdiately opened his eyes, realizing it was ti.
He got up, mustered all his strength, and slamd his palm down hard onto the Pill Furnace.
Bang!
With the first strike, Fang Lin’s Pill Furnace shook violently as if hit hard, making a loud noise as it hit the ground, echoing throughout the Examination Hall.
The Li Family mbers jumped in fright and turned back to look at Fang Lin.
Li Chong’s face changed slightly, his finger flicked again, and the flas enveloping the Pill Furnace grew more vigorous, as if intending to reach the sky.
“Finally, here it cos.” Elder Su and the old man of the Li Family were both fully attentive, staring intently at Fang Lin.
Ouyang Jing was also full of excitent, eager to see Fang Lin truly perform Shaking Three Mountains.
Bang!
The second strike landed, sending a more impactful vibration.
At this mont, not only Fang Lin’s Pill Furnace, but all other furnaces in the Examination Hall began to tremble as if influenced by so power.
“What’s happening? My Pill Furnace!” “Oh no! This is Shaking Three Mountains!”
“We’re done for! Completely done for!”
The Li Family mbers exclaid in horror as they looked at their shaking Pill Furnaces. They tried to stop it but felt helpless.
The elder of the Li Family had a gloomy face, black as the bottom of a pot. He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Li Chong was also filled with fear. He had used his Soul Commanding Pill Fire
to enclose his Pill Furnace, but the power of Shaking Three Mountains was not to be underestimated. His Pill Furnace, protected by the flas, also showed signs of being out of control.
And then, the third strike — bam – happened!
Fang Lin’s furnace abruptly stopped shaking and landed on the ground with a bang, a puff of white smoke rising, filled with the fragrance of pills.
Pfft, Pfft, Pfft!!!
Repeated sounds were heard from the Li Family mbers’ Pill Furnaces. Hearing these sounds, no matter their gender, the expressions of the Li Family mbers turned ugly, like they had just lost their grandfather.
The Li Family elder grunted heavily, his impulse to hit Fang Lin barely under control.
Ouyang Jing’s mouth gaped open, his face filled with shock. He then burst into laughter..
