Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
At this mont, apart from Long Xuan, Ancestor Burning Heaven, and Ancestor Deceitful Heaven, all the other participants had already completed their alchemy and left the arena.
Among them, Long Yuyao’s score of 92 points was the highest, while Feng Shuang and Wang Wu, as well as those ranked after them, did not even reach 90 points.
Alchemy was a monotonous and tedious process with no entertainnt value. However, rather than dispersing, the crowd of spectators had only grown larger over these three days.
Everyone stared intently at the three remaining contestants, showing no signs of impatience.
Especially that terrifying young man, who was refining a pill far beyond his current level. He had attracted the attention of more than half the audience, with many pointing at him and whispering among themselves.
Finally, on this day, the long-silent plaza erupted with movent.
Ancestor Deceitful Heaven was the first to open his eyes and shouted in a deep voice:
"Condense for !"
The flas beneath his pill furnace flared up instantly. All the spectators turned their gazes toward him, their faces filled with excitent.
Even those who knew nothing about alchemy understood—Ancestor Deceitful Heaven had begun the pill-condensing phase. Once this step was completed, the pill would be ford!
After waiting so long, they had finally reached the climax of the event!
On the elevated platform, the panel of judges sat upright, leaning forward with anticipation in their eyes.
Just as Ancestor Deceitful Heaven’s voice fell, Ancestor Burning Heaven, unwilling to be left behind, suddenly opened his eyes and roared:
"Condense for !"
With his thunderous command, the flas beneath his pill furnace also surged wildly.
Their voices rang out one after the other, and it was no surprise that their pills would likely form at the sa ti. Both were pushing their flas to the limit in a bid to finish first.
Not long after, the wind in the plaza suddenly picked up.
Just monts ago, the sky had been clear, but now it darkened ominously. Without any warning, thick clouds had gathered overhead.
The swirling winds churned the clouds at an alarming speed, as if heralding the end of the world, exuding an overwhelming heavenly might.
The spectators all lifted their heads, their faces filled with shock.
"This is…"
"A phenonon! A celestial phenonon! This ans that a heaven-defying pill is about to be born!"
"Tsk tsk, it’s rare to see a pill capable of triggering such a phenonon. I wonder what kind of effects these pills have to create such a terrifying disturbance."
"These storm clouds stretch for 800 miles… This is no small commotion. I’m really curious now—just what kind of heaven-defying pills are they refining? This is truly exciting!"
Below the dark clouds, the onlookers were filled with exhilaration, discussing fervently.
At this mont, both Ancestor Deceitful Heaven and Ancestor Burning Heaven had triggered celestial phenona while condensing their pills!
The dark clouds summoned by Ancestor Deceitful Heaven occupied the left half of the sky, while the dark clouds summoned by Ancestor Burning Heaven took the right half.
The two stormfronts clashed at the center, locked in an intense standoff.
Just as the crowd was still caught up in their excitent, a sudden change occurred—
The once chaotic storm clouds erupted with deafening thunder!
Blinding red lightning crackled across the sky, spreading throughout the storm clouds like a web of scarlet thunderbolts.
Each bolt of lightning carried a terrifying power, wrapping around clusters of dark clouds. The energy released was so overwhelming that it felt as if so monstrous existence was about to descend upon the world.
Under the intense glow of the lightning, the faces of the spectators below turned pale, all illuminated by an eerie crimson light.
Ancestor Deceitful Heaven and Ancestor Burning Heaven gazed madly at the sky, their expressions wild with anticipation.
"This is…"
The panel of judges witnessed this terrifying scene, their expressions changing drastically as they all stood up in unison.
"A red lightning bolt... Red lightning? Could it be the legendary Life-Destroying Thunder? I've read records stating that Life-Destroying Thunder is red in color—this must be it without a doubt!" Long Xiaoyao exclaid in shock.
"That seems highly likely. It is said that heaven-defying Spirit Pills are not tolerated by the heavens. If such a pill appears, the heavens will send down tribulation lightning to destroy it."
"However, I have lived for over a thousand years and have never seen this with my own eyes. I once thought it was just a rumor, but I never expected that a heaven-defying pill could truly attract lighting tribulation."
"To witness such a sight today, I can die without regrets." An elderly judge on the panel was trembling with excitent as he spoke.
"Tsk tsk, I never expected these two to refine a Spirit Pill capable of summoning lightning tribulation. They are truly monstrous talents! Even if the ancient heaven-defying pill recipes still exist, they cannot be refined due to the lack of crucial ingredients."
"This must be a pill recipe they created themselves. Even in our era, those who could create their own heaven-defying pill recipes were extrely rare!"
As they gazed at the sky filled with crimson lightning serpents dancing wildly, even the God of Gambling revealed a rare look of shock, appearing sowhat shaken.
"Heh, red lightning—so this is the Life-Destroying Thunder, ranked tenth among the Ten Great Lightning Tribulation? Since Ancestor Burning Heaven could refine such a heaven-defying Spirit Pill, it seems highly unlikely that Long Xuan, a re third-grade Alchemist, will be able to surpass him."
Feng Tiancheng curled his lips into a slight smirk, but his expression soon stiffened.
His gaze was fixed on the dark clouds in the sky. He suddenly sensed that there was sothing above the tribulation clouds—sothing even more terrifying. The energy hidden within it was even more unsettling, making it impossible to ignore.
Below, the crimson lightning bolts seed to have encountered sothing terrifying. They scattered chaotically in all directions but were ultimately unable to escape their fate of being devoured.
Before everyone's astonished eyes, the apocalyptic crimson tribulation clouds were instantly swallowed by a mass of white tribulation clouds.
The lightning surging within this dark cloud was white in color—blindingly bright. The deafening thunderclaps rumbled endlessly, and the flickering white lightning ford a vast web of electricity across the surface of the clouds, illuminating the terrified faces of those below in an even more ghastly pale hue.
This tribulation cloud covered a far larger area, stretching across thousands of miles in a mighty, endless expanse. The sheer magnitude of its presence affected a vast region.
The phenonon was so imnse that it not only shook the entire city but also alard distant cities and powerful factions. Countless people from faraway regions rushed outside, gazing at the sky in awe.
At this mont, a massive portion of the sky was shrouded in dark clouds, completely blocking out the sunlight. The land was plunged into darkness, resembling the end of the world, and it was impossible to estimate how many people had been startled by the sight.
Ancestor Burning Heaven, who had just been brimming with excitent, was now frozen in shock as he watched his crimson tribulation cloud get instantly devoured by the white tribulation cloud. His face went rigid with disbelief. "How is this possible?!"
Ancestor Deceitful Heaven was also completely unsettled, his expression filled with utter incredulity. "My tribulation cloud... got devoured? What kind of joke is this?!"
"This… this is… could it be the legendary Reincarnation Thunder?" Even the God of Gambling could no longer remain composed. He stood up in astonishnt, staring at the vast white lightning covering the sky.
"White-colored lightning… there's no mistake. This must be the Reincarnation Thunder, ranked ninth on the Lightning Tribulation Rankings, as recorded in ancient texts!"
"A re third-grade Alchemist managed to refine a Spirit Pill capable of summoning the ninth-ranked Reincarnation Thunder? Are you kidding ?!"
Feng Tiancheng's eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the sky. A surge of frustration overwheld him, and he nearly coughed up blood.
"Can this brat be any more heaven-defying?!"
