When Su Mei and Tie Wu learned of the old man of Eagle Mountain's identity, they were overjoyed.
The addition of Elder Eagle Mountain, a four-star Dou Zong, meant that Xiao Fan had not given up on them. With a Dou Zong in charge, Su Mei and Tie Wu felt much more confident.
Upon hearing Elder Yingshan's words, Su Mei and Tie Wu exchanged a glance, deeply shocked.
During this period, the death of the Demon Old Ghost in Demon Flame Valley had plunged the entire Black Corner Region into chaos. However, unexpectedly, the two learned from the Eagle Mountain Elder that Xiao Fan had already refined a seventh-grade pill.
"A seventh-grade elixir..."
"Doesn't this mean that the young master is already a seventh-grade alchemist...?"
Excitement appeared on Su Mei and Tie Wu's faces. Recalling the situation when they were controlled by Xiao Fan, they couldn't help but feel a sense of luck.
....................
Inside Canaan Academy, on the competition stage.
As the seventh-grade pill gradually took shape, the lightning power shining in the sky continued to surge. The disciples who were originally surrounding the arena subconsciously retreated a considerable distance.
Although the Grand Elder received Xiao Fan's telepathic message, his internal fighting spirit remained constantly circulating as he kept a close eye on the situation on the competition stage. If any unexpected event occurred, the Grand Elder would immediately take action to protect the students.
"Ding!"
Finally, the seventh-grade pill was formed inside the Myriad Beasts Cauldron. A perfectly round pill condensed inside the cauldron, and a rich medicinal fragrance instantly filled the air.
................
"Open the Mountain Seal!"
Deep in the mountains behind Canaan Academy, a cold shout rang out, followed by a huge energy handprint that roared out from a figure's hand, carrying immense and terrifying energy, and crashed down onto a small mountain.
"boom!"
In the blink of an eye, boulders flew, earth and wood collapsed, and a small mountain was instantly reduced to dust by the attack of this energy handprint.
"Whoo~"
Xiao Yan let out a slight breath, then seemed to sense something, suddenly looked up at the inner courtyard, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"The fluctuations of a seventh-grade elixir!"
Xiao Yan's face showed a hint of surprise as he asked, "Senior Brother, your injuries have healed?"
Xiao Yan then ignored the devastated trial grounds and grabbed the massive Xuan Heavy Ruler that had somehow ended up stuck in the ground. He then transformed into a bolt of lightning and rushed towards the inner courtyard.
"Teacher, you said I could graduate when I could refine a pill that could attract pill lightning. Now my senior brother has reached that level, but unfortunately, you didn't live to see it..."
"boom!"
As the seventh-grade pill was fully formed, bolts of lightning flashed within the thick, dark clouds hanging overhead, resembling silver snakes constantly dancing. Some of the lightning collided with each other, instantly producing a deafening roar that was incredibly awe-inspiring.
"boom!"
Sensing that the seventh-grade pill was complete, a bolt of lightning surged from the thunderclouds, tearing through the sky and crashing down fiercely towards the Myriad Beasts Cauldron on the ground.
The appearance of the lightning was accompanied by an instant burst of silver light that illuminated the entire arena, carrying surging energy that was about to strike Xiao Fan.
At this critical moment, Xiao Fan had a sudden thought, and the Earth Demon Puppet, which had not made a move until now, instantly flew up and blocked Xiao Fan and the lightning tribulation.
Immediately, the Earth Demon Puppet gathered its strength in mid-air, clenched its right fist, and threw a punch at the descending lightning.
"boom!"
Under the horrified gazes of the crowd, the oppressive thunder that had been pressing down on them was completely shattered and vanished by the silver figure's single punch.
The residual power of the dazzling lightning struck the Earth Demon Puppet's body, causing the already silvery Earth Demon Puppet to emit an even more dazzling light.
As the Earth Demon Puppet shattered the lightning with a single punch, a brief silence fell over the scene.
The Grand Elder looked at the Earth Demon Puppet in the sky, a hint of surprise on his face.
He had seen the pill lightning of a seventh-grade pill before. At that time, the other party hired two Dou Zong experts to help, but they almost failed to survive. Therefore, the Grand Elder was very clear about the terrifying power of this pill lightning.
But even such terrifying lightning was completely shattered by a single punch from the "Heavenly Demon Puppet".
If it weren't for the somewhat inhumane nature of the creation of the "Heavenly Demon Puppet," even the Grand Elder would have been unable to hold back.
In contrast, the students in the inner academy, upon witnessing such a shocking scene, had eyes filled with deep...admiration.
On the dueling platform, through his connection with the Earth Demon Puppet, Xiao Fan could clearly sense that after shattering the lightning with a punch, the residual energy of the lightning surged into the Earth Demon Puppet's body. As the lightning entered the body, the lightning continuously struck the Earth Demon Puppet's body, but instead of causing harm, it was constantly training its physique.
As the power of thunder washed over it, the Earth Demon Puppet's body became stronger, and the power it could exert was slightly enhanced. Even the Earth Demon Puppet's realm was slightly higher than before.
Although the increase was insignificant, a hint of joy flashed in Xiao Fan's eyes, for this was only the first burst of lightning power.
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, the Earth Demon Puppet stood quietly in the sky like an indifferent bodyguard. Whenever lightning struck down from the clouds, it was directly shattered by the Earth Demon Puppet, which then absorbed all the shattered lightning power.
The Gundam figure, which was originally shimmering with silver light, was now even more dazzling, its entire body shimmering with an extremely rich silver light.
"laugh!"
A faint rumble of thunder sounded, and Xiao Yan, who had just returned from the deep mountains, saw the scene on the competition stage.
Looking at the figure in mid-air, Xiao Yan showed a hint of surprise, then landed beside the Grand Elder without saying a word to disturb Xiao Fan.
The Grand Elder nodded slightly when he saw Xiao Yan, a smile on his face.
These two brothers are truly extraordinary...
With the Earth Demon Puppet present, the tribulation lightning of this seventh-grade pill was completely transformed into experience points for the Earth Demon Puppet. After a while, as the last bolt of lightning was absorbed by the Earth Demon Puppet, the tribulation lightning in the sky gradually dissipated, and the dark clouds that had been hanging down slowly disappeared at some point.
"boom!"
As the calamity disappeared, the seventh-grade pill within the Myriad Beasts Cauldron instantly broke free and flew into the sky.
Having anticipated this, Xiao Fan gently grasped the pill, instantly freezing the space around it. Then, he cast a hand seal and stored the pill in an exquisite jade bottle, a smile appearing on his face.
That's right, the pill he refined this time was a seventh-grade pill, the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill.
Having finally refined the pills that You Ruo needed, Xiao Fan felt much relieved. He then looked down at the students below the stage, who were all dumbfounded. Xiao Fan spoke softly, his voice as gentle as a breeze.
"Fellow students, consider this alchemy session a gift from me. Please remember this dazzling scene. Rise to the challenge! Each and every one of you is a genius from across the Dou Qi Continent. I believe you too can break through the thunder, rise to the challenge, and usher in... a new life!"
Immediately, Xiao Fan smiled slightly at everyone, bowed gently, and then the space distorted, and Xiao Fan's figure disappeared from the spot.
...........
"You, you actually pulled this stunt right before we parted."
Inside a conference room, the Grand Elder looked at Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan sitting in front of him, shook his head and smiled, then seemed to recall how the two had first entered the Inner Court.
With a sigh, Su Qian knew that in the future, Canaan Academy would probably find it difficult to produce disciples as monstrous as Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan.
"Are you planning to leave?"
The elder sighed softly, his expression turning serious, and addressed Xiao Fan and the other person.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan also turned his gaze to Xiao Fan.
Xiao Yan always followed Xiao Fan's arrangements regarding their travel plans. If Xiao Fan hadn't been injured earlier, they would probably already be on their way to Zhongzhou.
"Ah."
Under their watchful eyes, Xiao Fan nodded slightly and said to the Grand Elder, "After this trip to Zhongzhou, we probably won't be back for a while. Our teacher is still in the hands of the Soul Hall. Once we arrive in Zhongzhou, we will first try to find Venerable Feng's help."
Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, the First Elder nodded slightly. With his strength, he was powerless to intervene in the matter of the Medicine Venerable.
“Venerable Feng…” The First Elder murmured, then nodded slightly and said to the two, “Venerable Feng is a close friend of Venerable Yao. He even came to the Black Corner Region to find Han Feng in order to find out about Venerable Yao. You can rest assured.”
Then the elder spoke again: "However, the journey to Zhongzhou is long. With your current strength, you should be fine, but once you arrive in Zhongzhou, you should still be careful."
"We will."
Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan exchanged a glance and nodded slightly.
The elder looked at the two of them and knew that they were not the competitive type, so he was relieved. He then took out an item from his pocket and said, "I don't know if you will need this, but if you meet the dean, he will believe you because of this."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fan took the items from the elder's hands and then said to the elder, "Elder, time is of the essence, and I have one more thing to trouble you with."
"Oh?"
Afterwards, Xiao Fan took out the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill he had refined and handed it to the Grand Elder, asking him to deliver the pill to the Snake-People Clan.
Upon hearing Xiao Fan's account, the Grand Elder smiled and nodded in agreement, promising to personally deliver the item to the Snake-People.
Chapter 84 One Hall, One Tower, Two Sects, Three Valleys, Four Pavilions
Outside Canaan Academy, Xiao Fan and his group gradually disappeared from the Grand Elder's sight, eventually turning into a black dot and vanishing into the sky.
"Hehe, little guy, have a safe journey..."
The Grand Elder watched the disappearing black dot on the horizon, a peaceful smile appearing on his face. He then hurried towards the location of the Gama Empire, for he had promised Xiao Fan to deliver the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill to the Snake-People race…
"Finally, I'm leaving this place..."
On the horizon, atop a griffin, Xiao Fan and his companions sat cross-legged. Xiao Yan gazed at the familiar scenery receding into the distance, a look of longing on his face. Zhongzhou, the most prosperous place on the Dou Qi Continent, I, Xiao Yan, have arrived!
The reason why everyone rode away on griffins was because Xinlan's strength had not yet reached the level of a Dou Wang and she was unable to fly. Therefore, the Grand Elder ordered someone to give them a griffin as a means of transportation.
After all, the distance between Zhongzhou and the Black Corner Region is unknown, and if they were to fly on their own, the time they would spend on the journey would be extremely long.
On the griffin's back, Xiao Yan looked at Zi Yan, who was sitting on the griffin's neck, excitedly stroking its neck like a child. He leaned closer to Xiao Fan with a hint of helplessness and asked in a very low voice, "Senior brother, why did you think of bringing Zi Yan along?"
The sound, which she thought was very soft, was clearly heard by Zi Yan.
"Zheng!"
Zi Yan revealed the gauntlets Xiao Fan had crafted for her, made from the spikes of a Heavenly Demon Phoenix. The gleaming spikes were pointed at Xiao Yan. With her snow-white chin slightly raised, she spoke to Xiao Fan, "Hmph! What's wrong with bringing me along? I'm also at the Dou Huang realm now. If you're not convinced, why don't we have a match!"
