Chapter 2849: Three Overarching Heaven Pills
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
For Duan Ling Tian, it was extremely torturous to slow his speed and prolong the time of him heating the cauldron. It made him feel as though he was losing his mind. The feeling was similar to how if one possessed the fastest sports car but had to drive on an empty road at the speed of ten miles an hour for eleven hours straight. It was enough to drive an ordinary person insane.
Duan Ling Tian felt as though he had been given a new lease on life after he finally finished heating the cauldron eleven hours later.
‘Since I’ve decided to do it, I’ll definitely see it through!’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he exhaled. A light flashed briefly in his eyes. Then, he began to refine the pills while holding back his true skills.
As the saying went, ‘Outsiders are only here to watch the show while knowledgeable people know how to look at the details’. The primitive and mediocre Celestial Alchemists who followed Guan Qi Fei here shook their heads when they saw the way Duan Ling Tian refined the Overarching Heaven Pill. Some of them even thought they were superior to him.
“What a terrible technique!”
“With this kind of skills, he claims he can refine Overarching Heaven Pills? Is he joking?”
“How did he become the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect with this kind of skills?”
One of the men standing behind Guan Qi Fei sneered. “Do you really believe he’s the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect? With these skills, he’s not even comparable to the three prominent Celestial Alchemists from Tai Yi Celestial Sect. They would not have chosen him to become the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the sect.”
“That’s right. The people from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect probably made that up so they can fool us into believing there’s someone capable of refining Overarching Heaven Pills in their sect.”
“I really can’t wait to see how the Tai Yi Celestial Sect is going to dig themselves out of this hole.”
The discussion between the group of Celestial Alchemists behind Guan Qi Fei was clearly heard by everyone in the surroundings. They made no attempt to lower their voices at all. With those words, those who had no knowledge of alchemy assumed Duan Ling Tian’s speed was extremely slow when heating the cauldron, and his skills and techniques of refining the Overarching Heaven Pill were awful.
“With these skills, he would be a mediocre Celestial Alchemist at most.”
“Exactly. How did he even obtain a prominent Celestial Fire with these skills? He’s really lucky!”
Many Celestial Alchemists present on the scene were extremely jealous of Duan Ling Tian’s prominent Celestial Fire. Based on Duan Ling Tian’s skills, they were certain he was just a mediocre Celestial Alchemist at best. Some of them were more skilled than him, and yet, he managed to obtain a prominent Celestial Fire.
When the people from the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect saw Duan Ling Tian’s alchemy skills, all of their anxieties and uncertainties disappeared.
Lian Cheng Yi, the Sect Leader of the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect, said loudly as he laughed, “One Duke Grade Celestial Method and two Duke Grade Divine Abilities... Sect Leader Xiao, it seems like our trip to Alchemy City this time is rather fruitful...” At this point, he did not even bother to converse through Voice Transmission anymore.
“Indeed.” Xiao Teng nodded with a smile. “Let’s just treat this as a welcoming gift. When the Alchemy Conference begins, our luck might continue, and we might be able to win other things.”
The battles between Celestial Alchemists in the Alchemy Conference was more like a gamble.
A small gamble would have ordinary pill formulas, a small number of Celestial Stones, or some low-grade cultivation methods, Celestial Methods, and Divine Abilities as stakes.
On the other hand, a huge gamble between Celestial Alchemists would have rare pills formulas, a big number of Celestial Stones, high-grade cultivation methods, Celestial Methods, or Divine Abilities as stakes. Some Celestial Sects would even use King Grade Celestial Weapons as stakes. However, only those from really powerful Celestial Sects would dare to use King Grade Celestial Weapons as stakes.
Although the Tai Yi Celestial Sect was one of the top sects in the Six Southeastern Regions, they were relatively weak compared to the other top sects. For this reason, He Shan, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, did not dare to simply bring out the sect’s King Grade Celestial Weapons as a stake. Moreover, even if the Tai Yi Celestial Sect managed to win a King Grade Celestial Weapon from a powerful Celestial Sect, they might not even be able to hold onto their prize. Although there might be really strong powerhouses protecting the Tai Yi Celestial Sect in the dark, those powerhouses would definitely not step forward for a matter as trivial as a King Grade Celestial Weapon. Therefore, the Tai Yi Celestial Sect only had themselves to rely on.
“A welcoming gift?” Lian Cheng Yi laughed happily when he heard Xiao Teng’s words. Then, he turned to look at He Shan, Situ Ming, and the others. When he saw their calm expressions, he sneered. “Still putting on a front?”
Meanwhile, Guan Qi Fei looked at Duan Ling Tian contemptuously and said, “What a naive brat! With this kind of skill, how dare he show off in front of me?”
Tan Zheng Ye did not comment, but a smug smile could be seen on his face.
...
Time continued to pass, and another day had gone by.
At this time, Duan Ling Tian was finally at the final step of the pill refinement process. All he needed to do now was to retrieve the pills.
The Celestial Alchemists present on the scene could, naturally, tell Duan Ling Tian was almost done.
“Based on his posture, he should be able to retrieve the pill within half an hour...”
“There’s probably nothing but crumbs in his cauldron. I can’t wait to see his reaction.” Guan Qi Fei’s eyes were brimming with disdain, and the sneer on his face deepened.
Smack!
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian smacked his palms against the cauldron, causing the cauldron to shake.
“He’s almost done!”
“I thought he would continue to stall for time. I didn’t expect him to finish refining the pills so soon!”
“Perhaps, he knows there’s no point in prolonging the inevitable. After all, there’s nothing in his cauldron. There’s no difference if he finishes now or later...”
The Celestial Alchemists present on the scene looked at Duan Ling Tian with bright eyes, clearly taking delight in what they perceived would be his misfortune.
Earlier, when Duan Ling Tian was refining the Overarching Heaven Pill, quite a few people, including Lian Cheng Yi and Xiao Teng, had tried to extend their Divine Consciousness to probe the cauldron. However, they discovered that their Divine Consciousness were blocked. Although they were shocked, they did not think it was strange. After all, there were prominent Celestial Fires that could block Divine Consciousness. Let alone a Celestial Duke, some prominent Celestial Fires could even block the Divine Consciousness of a Celestial King. This did not mean the prominent Celestial Fires were particularly powerful, it was just one of the traits that the prominent Celestial Fires possessed. It was just its nature. Regardless of how powerful one was, it would be difficult to defy nature.
Before anyone could react, three streaks of mysterious black light suddenly shot out from the cauldron into Duan Ling Tian’s hand in just a blink of an eye.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three distinct sounds of wind whistling rang in everyone’s ears at this moment.
The three streaks of light had moved at light speed. For this reason, the crowd had seen the three streaks of light first before they heard sounds of wind whistling.
It was so quiet at this moment that if a needle dropped, everyone would be able to hear it.
At this moment, everyone wore a stunned expression on their faces. They looked as though they could not believe the scene before their eyes.
“Three Overarching Heaven Pills?!”
“How’s this possible?!”
“Are... are you joking?”
“H-he managed to refine the pills?”
“Are those really Overarching Heaven Pills?”
“Impossible! He doesn’t have the skills required to refine Overarching Heaven Pills!”
“That’s right! Maybe those aren’t Overarching Heaven Pills? It’s possible that he refined some other pills.”
“Impossible! The ingredients he used are for Overarching Heaven Pills... Moreover, based on the auras of the pills in his hand, there’s no doubt those are prominent Celestial Pills!”
“I just tried investigating with my Divine Consciousness. Those are undoubtedly Overarching Heaven Pills!”
Those who doubted the authenticity of Duan Ling Tian’s pills were immediately cleared of their doubts. Some of the stronger powerhouses had confirmed Duan Ling Tian’s pills were indeed the Overarching Heaven Pills.
“No! No! Impossible!” Guan Qi Fei’s face was pale as he stumbled backward a few steps. An expression of disbelief could be seen on his pale face.
Tan Zheng Ye’s expression had changed drastically as well.
