Chapter 85: Gathering of the Strong!
"Fortunately, my Dragon Soul Cauldron is sturdy enough. If it were an ordinary cauldron, it would have likely shattered under this energy impact," Gu He remarked, watching the cauldron only slightly tremble amidst the energy surge.
Seeing the cauldron's resilience in the face of the energy impact, Gu He couldn't help but silently admire.
Outside the alchemy room, Mitertengshan paced back and forth in the corridor. He occasionally stopped to look at the alchemy room, his face filled with worry and impatience.
"We must succeed," Mitertengshan silently prayed.
Just then, he suddenly sensed a violent vibration coming from the alchemy room.
Hearing this vibration, Mitertengshan's expression changed.
Could it be a failure?
With this thought, Miteer Tengshan's face became somewhat unsightly.
However, shortly after, he sensed a strong energy fluctuation rapidly taking shape.
Simultaneously, a rich medicinal fragrance wafted through the alchemy room and reached the outside.
"It's a success!"
Feeling the intense energy fluctuations, Mitertengshan was momentarily stunned, and then his face quickly showed joy.
But at that moment, the energy inside the alchemy room suddenly surged to a terrifying degree. Then, with a loud bang, a roughly half-foot-wide column of energy shot out directly from the alchemy room, pierced through the ceiling, and soared into the sky.
Watching the column of light pierce through the ceiling and reach the sky, Mitertengshan was momentarily stunned, and then his face showed a look of astonishment.
Was this the might of a sixth-grade pill being formed?
The energy column rising above Miteer Auction House immediately caught the attention of many strong individuals in the imperial city.
Many people looked surprised, and then quickly flew out of their houses. In less than a moment, many strong individuals had gathered outside Miterteng Auction House.
As they watched from up close, some of the strong individuals finally recognized the origin of the light column, and exclamations filled the air.
"The light column is filled with a medicinal fragrance; it seems someone is refining pills inside that room."
"Although high-grade pills can cause some commotion, unless it's a seventh-grade pill, there's rarely such a phenomenon. Could it be someone is trying to refine a seventh-grade pill?"
"Impossible. The commotion caused by a seventh-grade pill formation is much greater. It's probably a rare high-grade pill among the sixth-grade pills."
"Tsk tsk, any pill that can cause such a disturbance is definitely not ordinary. I wonder who the master alchemist inside is. Could it be Grandmaster Fama from the Alchemist Guild?"
"Heh, Grandmaster Fama is only a peak fifth-grade alchemist. How could he have the ability to refine a sixth-grade pill like this?"
As more and more strong individuals gathered around the tower, whispers and discussions became increasingly frequent. Some people who heard these conversations looked at the light column with growing greed in their eyes. A pill that could cause such a commotion was undoubtedly extraordinary.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, the sound of rushing wind erupted, and figures swiftly arrived. They suspended themselves in the sky, looking down in amazement at the column of light.
"With such a phenomenon, it must be a sixth-grade pill. I wonder which master is refining pills in Miterteng Auction House?" A figure in the sky said, sounding surprised.
"Yes, judging by the disturbance, it's probably close to reaching seventh-grade. Pills of this level are not something even Gu He can easily refine," another person added, his face showing seriousness.
If Miteer Tengshan were here, he would recognize the elderly figure in the sky as Guardian Jia of the Jia Ma Royal Family, also known as Jia Rong, and the middle-aged man as Mu Chen, the head of the Mu Family.
"Not long ago, there was news from the Cloud Mist Sect that Pill King Gu He can now refine high-grade sixth-grade pills," Jia Rong suddenly recalled, looking towards the direction of Miterteng Auction House, his eyes filled with speculation.
At this, Mu Chen blinked in surprise. "Are you suggesting that the person inside might be Pill King Gu He?"
"It's highly possible!"
Jia Rong nodded slightly, his expression somewhat grim. "It seems the pressure from the royal family on the Miteer family is too great. I wonder how Miteer Tengshan managed to invite Pill King Gu He."
For the Jia Ma Royal Family, the Cloud Mist Sect, the foremost sect in the Jia Ma Empire, was undoubtedly a significant concern. The sect boasted formidable strength, with a Dou Emperor expert, Yun Yun, presiding over it. Additionally, Yun Shan had been in seclusion, seeking a breakthrough to Dou Ancestor.
Although the strength of the Jia Ma Royal Family was not to be underestimated, when compared to the Cloud Mist Sect, it fell somewhat short.
Over the years, the two colossal entities seemed to coexist peacefully on the surface but had engaged in numerous secret conflicts.
Publicly, both sides had not declared their stances, but behind the scenes, they were gathering allies and promoting their own development, avoiding direct conflict.
Despite the royal family being cautious, they had not torn their faces. Yun Yun was not clear about the foundation of the Jia Ma Royal Family, and even if she had any thoughts, she dared not act on them.
The Cloud Mist Sect had several Dou Kings, but the Jia Ma Royal Family also had numerous Dou King powerhouses. Moreover, they had the support of many clans, with the Mu Family being a close ally, controlling numerous legions in the Jia Ma Empire.
As for the Nalan Family, it was hard to say before. However, ever since Nalan Yanran joined the Cloud Mist Sect and became Yun Yun's direct disciple, her allegiance was undoubtedly with the Cloud Mist Sect.
That left only the Miteer family.
However, the Miteer family had maintained a neutral stance over the years.
Although the royal family coveted the wealth of the Miteer family, they did not dare to be too overt, fearing that pushing the Miteer family too hard might drive them toward the Cloud Mist Sect.
Now, with Pill King Gu He appearing in the Miteerteng Auction House and successfully refining a sixth-grade pill, it couldn't help but make Jia Xingtian suspect that the Miteer family might have inclined towards the Cloud Mist Sect.
Thinking of this, Jia Xingtian's expression immediately darkened.
Surveying the surroundings, Jia Xingtian's eyes narrowed, and he said calmly, "Unexpectedly, Nalan Jie is here too."
At these words, Mu Chen was also taken aback. Following Jia Xingtian's line of sight, he saw Nalan Jie, the patriarch of the Nalan family, hovering not far away in the sky.
Mu Chen cast a cold glance at Nalan Jie and remarked indifferently, "It seems the last Spiritual Purity Pill has helped him break through. Even the poison inside his body has been suppressed."
Jia Xingtian, hearing this, also looked at Nalan Jie coldly. "Suppressing the poison is not so easy."
"Find out what kind of pill Pill King Gu He has refined this time and whether the Miteer family has already leaned towards the Cloud Mist Sect."
Having said that, Jia Xingtian glanced once more at the direction of the Miteerteng Auction House and left.
...
In the alchemy room, the sound of the bell gradually diminished. A milky white pill in the cauldron suddenly emitted a dazzling light, forcefully breaking through the cauldron. However, despite flying around the sealed room for half a day, it could not escape.
"This Qingming Longetivity Pill is indeed extraordinary; it wants to escape as soon as it's born."
Seeing the pill's behavior, Gu He was startled, then smiled and shook his head. With a gesture, a suction force directly pulled the scattered white light back into his hands, and he then took out a jade bottle and sealed it inside.
As the pill was sealed in the bottle, it gradually calmed down. Seeing this, Gu He smiled satisfactorily, deeply exhaled, and realized that this round of alchemy had consumed a considerable amount of his energy.
