Chapter 788: Chapter 788: Severity of the Injury
The four individuals were engrossed in refining their pills, each showcasing their techniques in the crucial stage. The scene was intense.
However, at this mont, Ling Zhongtian exhibited a very extraordinary pill refining skill. Just when he was full of vigor, his complexion suddenly changed, his body wavered twice, and he seed to be on the verge of collapsing.
“What’s wrong with Ling Zhongtian? Sothing seems amiss.”
“His face is so pale; there seems to be a problem.”
“Could it be that his injuries have not yet healed and are acting up again?”
…
...
Noticing Ling Zhongtian’s abnormal situation, many people frowned. Especially Ling Changhe and the Ling Family Elder showed deep concern.
They both knew that Ling Zhongtian’s injuries were not yet healed, and they had just suppressed them temporarily using the Jade Spirit Stone and so other thods. Logically speaking, he should be able to make it through this selection without any problems.
Unexpectedly, the trouble arose. Ling Zhongtian’s current condition clearly indicated his injury was acting up again.
Ling Zhongtian himself did not expect that the Heavenly Punishnt injury within his body would flare up at this ti. Normally it wouldn’t be much of a problem, but, at this mont, they were in the critical stage of the selection contest. How could he have any complications at this juncture?
“The Heavenly Punishnt injury within Ling Zhongtian can’t be suppressed any longer.” Hall Master of the North Town Hall spoke. A couple of Elders from Alchemy Tao families showed worry, especially Elder Gong, who was always close to the Ling Family, was even more anxious.
The few individuals in the field obviously noticed Ling Zhongtian’s anomaly. For them, this was a rare opportunity, and they were secretly delighted.
Fang Lin had a smile on his face, looking at Ling Zhongtian whose complexion kept changing, he was certainly pleased.
“The Heavenly Punishnt injury is not so easy to suppress. I wonder how you will hold up.” Fang Lin murmured to himself.
Ling Zhongtian’s situation was not optimistic. Due to the flare-up of his Heavenly Punishnt injury, he was experiencing constant severe pain in his body, preventing him from concentrating on refining his pill.
Even maintaining his balance was difficult. If it wasn’t for the Jade Pendant carved out of Jade Spirit Stone that Ling Zhongtian was wearing, he probably would have collapsed by now.
“Damn it! Why did it have to stir up at this ti!” Ling Zhongtian gritted his teeth, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. The pain made his vision a bit blurry.
Without hesitation, Ling Zhongtian hit his Nine Palace Bag and took out a pure white pill, which he swallowed imdiately.
“What did Ling Zhongtian eat?”
“I’m not sure, perhaps it’s a pill that relieves his injury.”
“So Ling Zhongtian was prepared.”
“However, looking at his condition, even with the pill, it’s hard to say whether he can alleviate the injury.”
…
Everyone was discussing while Ling Changhe and the Ling Family Elder knew that the white pill was prepared for ergencies. It was an extrely precious pill that could soothe the Heavenly Punishnt injury.
But it only helped alleviate the condition. After the effect of the dicine was over, the Heavenly Punishnt injury would still erupt, and the pain would be even more severe than before.
The pill was only a temporary relief and not a cure. It wouldn’t be lightly consud until a critical mont.
Ling Zhongtian had no other choice. In this selection, he had to do his utmost to defeat all competitors. He could not lose because he was the Talent of the Ling Family, there was no room for defeat.
As soon as the pill entered his body, Ling Zhongtian’s complexion returned to normal within a mont, and the pain on his face completely disappeared.
Ling Zhongtian once again threw himself into the intense process of pill refining. He wanted to complete the Purple Origin Pill as soon as possible because, once the effect of the pill passed, he wouldn’t be able to hold on.
The scene beca increasingly dramatic. Ling Zhongtian demonstrated his skills, dazzling everyone at once, outshining the other three contestants.
“Ling Zhongtian is indeed impressive.”
“Even under such serious injuries, he still has such abilities.”
“He is rightfully the Talent from Alchemy Tao family, we are far inferior in comparison.”
…
Ling Changhe and the Ling Family Elder looked pleased but they were still concerned. The effects of the white pill wouldn’t last long thus it was uncertain whether they could sustain until Ling Zhongtian completed the Purple Origin Pill.
“Ah, this guy really fought hard but you still understand too little about the Heavenly Punishnt injury.” Fang Lin shook his head with an indifferent expression, a trace of mockery evident at the corner of his mouth.
As a pillar sovereign in his previous life, Fang Lin was very familiar with the so-called Heavenly Punishnt injury. It was not as straightforward as rely enduring physical pain.
Ti ticked by, the competition amongst the four individuals, Ling Zhongtian and others, reached its climax. White smoke arose along with a rich, refreshing aroma. The critical mont of the formation of the pill had co.
Fang Lin sat there, leisurely swinging his legs, as if he wasn’t worried about the outco of Ling Zhongtian and others’ pill refining.
Eventually, the pills of the four individuals were ready at almost the sa ti.
However, at this mont, Ling Zhongtian’s injury flared up again, and he spewed a mouthful of fresh blood. His body swayed, but he still managed to hold on.
At this mont, coughing up blood did not matter much because the pill was already ready. Ling Zhongtian was confident that even the pill he refined while being injured could absolutely beat the others.
The four of them took out the pills, put them in jade bottles, and presented them to the Hall Master of North Town Hall.
Five jade bottles were laid out in front of the Hall Master, including the Purple Origin Pill that Fang Lin had refined.
What followed was the mont of scrutinizing the pills, which was also the most nerve-wracking ti. The outco of this selection contest would also be revealed at this juncture.
Five people stood side by side below, but since Ling Zhongtian was injured, he was helped to stand by Ling Changhe. From ti to ti, he shot resentful and cold glances at Fang Lin.
The Hall Master of North Town Hall scanned the five people and his gaze paused at Fang Lin for a mont. Then he said, “Since all five of you have completed the task, I will proceed with the evaluation.”
With that, the Hall Master of North Town Hall opened a jade bottle, which contained the pill that Shen Xue Jian had refined.
Shen Xue Jian was slightly nervous. Although she felt that she had done very well, after all, the opponents were also strong, whether she could beat the others was really hard to say.
The Hall Master held in his hand the Purple Origin Pill that Shen Xue Jian had refined. After taking one look at it, he said, “Three Purple Origin Pills, all are of average quality.”
Upon hearing this, the other four showed various degrees of faint smiles, and those in the audience were sowhat incredulous.
“What? None of Shen Xue Jian’s Purple Origin Pills reached the superior level.”
“I thought at least two would.”
“That’s unexpected. It seems that the Purple Origin Pill is indeed hard to refine.”
…
Shen Xue Jian naturally noticed the expressions of the other four. She felt uncertain, could their Purple Origin Pills be better than hers?
Shen Xue Jian was sowhat incredulous as she was convinced that she was better than these four individuals.
