Chapter 1082: Heartbeats Racing
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
Everyone stood on the lotus platform in their respective positions as they watched Xiao Yan, Gu Yuankai and the Qing Ning Holy Man facing one another.
This pill cultivation contest might only consist of 3 people, but they were the most outstanding pill cultivators in the Divine Lands right now.
And those surrounding them were also of statuses. Xiao Yan’s master, Lin Feng, the leader of the Great Void Sect, Yan Nanlai, and the head of the Gu Family, Gu Jun.
Besides them, Zhu Yi, Wu Mengqi, Gu Cheng and the rest were also core figures in their own respective sects and family.
“Let the time limit be 7 days.” Gu Yuankai said. Xiao Yan and the Qing Ning Holy Man nodded their heads at him. 7 days was not a long time.
However, in the history of pill cultivation contests, they did not entertain the cultivation of pills that took decades and even a century, unless they were private contests.
Xiao Yan held onto the crucible and ignited it with fire. But it wasn’t the Nanming Primordial Fire. It was the Pure Yang Primordial Fire.
As this scene landed in the eyes of Gu Yuankai, he wasn’t vexed. His eyebrows shook a little, “He’s going all out against the Qing Ning Holy Man?”
The Nanming Primordial Fire was the most suitable fire to cultivate pills. The fire in the crucible of Gu Yuankai right now was the Nanming Primordial Fire.
Using what type of fire depended on the abilities of the cultivator. This was similar to the pill formula and technique that the cultivator possessed as well as the powers of the cultivator himself. Gu Yuankai did not have an advantage using the Nanming Primordial fire. Xiao Yan and the Qing Ning Holy Man did not seem to object to his choice too.
If there were discrepancies in the result of the competition, usually, no one would express any opinion about it.
In the crucible of the Qing Ning Holy Man, there was a dim-green flame, which was called the Green Lotus True Blaze. Its firepower was not as destructive, but was used to cultivate pills and medicine. It was a fire that was very outstanding in the area of pill cultivation and was only inferior to the Nanming Primordial Fire. Its effects were also not inferior to that of the Pure Yang Primordial Fire.
The Qing Ning Holy Man was also filled with confidence. He was unbothered with Gu Yuankai’s use of the Nanming Primordial Fire, but as he saw Xiao Yan using the Pure Yang Primordial Fire, his brows creased a little.
Xiao Yan also possessed the Nanming Primordial Fire, which was something everyone knew. But now, he forsook the Nanming Primordial Fire and turned to the Pure Yang Primordial Fire, which was something no one could comprehend.
Because of his relationship with Xiao Zhener as well as the previous clash, no one would reckon that Xiao Yan looked down on Gu Yuankai. Even Gu Yuankai did not think that way.
Most people had the same thinking as Gu Yuankai, which was that Xiao Yan was going all out against the Qing Ning Holy Man.
Not only were the crucibles that they used the same, even the fires they used had to be similar now.
But everyone could not help but think, “The question is, you are probably inferior to the Qing Ning Holy Man in other areas...this method of yours is honorable, to put it in a good way. But in a bad way, you are being too full of yourself.”
The Great Void Sect disciples all creased their brows, “You are too full of yourself, we are not cultivating the Gas Revolution Pills here!”
The level of the Gas Revolution Pills was too low. The quality of the pills was limited on their own. To an Immortal Soul Stage pill cultivator, there’s nothing much about it that could be achieved.
But as for some of the higher-quality pills, it was a different ball game. This involved a lot of experience, which would provide one with more ways and methods of cultivating the higher-quality pills.
Xiao Yan demeaned the Qing Ning Holy Man when he talked about the Gas Revolution Pills earlier, which left everyone shocked. This meant that if the both of them were in the Nascent Soul Stage, Xiao Yan might be superior to the Qing Ning Holy Man by a little.
One pill was not enough to point out any problem, but it was easy to garner the attention of everyone.
But in the Immortal Soul Stage, the situation was different. This had nothing much to do with the cultivation levels of the both of them. The main thing was that the Qing Ning Holy Man had reached the Immortal Soul Stage for more than 10,000 years. At his level, the pills that he had cultivated were considerably more than Xiao Yan.
After all, Xiao Yan had only just reached the Immortal Soul Stage and he had entered a new territory in the art of pill cultivation. It’s an unknown how much he had explored so far.
Generally speaking, the Great Void Sect disciples and Gu Family disciples could agree that the Qing Ning Holy Man and Gu Yuankai were powerful enough to destroy Xiao Yan in the art of pill cultivation.
While Xiao Yan’s gap with the two elders might not be comparable to the gap between the Crucible of the Divine Lands and Sun and Moon Divine Cauldron, the gap was about there.
This was the reason why the Qing Ning Holy Man and Gu Yuankai were so confident.
But it’s just that the Celestial Sect of Wonders had created so many miracles. The performance of Xiao Yan previously also raised some of their eyebrows, thus they were still not entirely sure of victory this time.
But Xiao Yan ditched the Nanming Primordial Fire this time and chose the Pure Yang Primordial Fire. In the eyes of the others, they thought that he was shooting himself in the foot.
Either he was entirely confident or full of himself. Otherwise, he must be trying to antagonize the Qing Ning Holy Man.
It would be unbelievable to think that he was either too confident or too full of himself.
As the Qing Ning Holy Man saw this scene, he was not enraged and only laughed, “Very good, let’s see how good you are.” He clasped his palms and a few of the medicinal herbs had already entered the fire inside the crucible.
Gu Yuankai remained calm and turned to look at Gu Jun on one side. Gu Jun looked calm too, but he was curious as he looked at Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan was even more calm. He was unbothered about the looks of others and only took out some medicine calmly. As these medicines landed in the crucible, the Pure Yang Primordial Fire cultivated it slowly.
Streaks and streaks of mana were injected into the crucible. The Pure Yang Primordial Fire did not seem very prosperous. As it rose, it did not seem like a normal, raging flame. Rather, it gave the feeling that it was burning very slowly.
Xiao Yan was indifferent as he controlled the crucible, which appeared to be easy for him.
The Qing Ning Holy Man and Gu Yuankai appeared to be this way too.
Tang Jun, Gu Liancheng, Chang Ling and the rest nodded their heads secretly as they saw this. They had a lot of feelings as they saw this scene.
These three pill cultivators had caused a huge uproar even before the pill cultivation contest began. But now, they became much more peaceful.
But this peace was just a false projection. Above the crucibles of the three of them, medicinal smell diffused into the air and they turned into balls of gases like auspicious clouds. These balls of gases consolidated above the crucible without dispersing.
As time passed, the auspicious clouds above the crucible of the Qing Ning Holy Man turned pure-golden slowly. Whereas the clouds above the crucible of Gu Yuankai slowly turned green. The auspicious clouds above Xiao Yan’s crucible was pure-white in color. As the three different batches of auspicious clouds floated in void space, they revealed miraculous concepts.
It was fine for everyone in the Nanming Longevity World to go without food for a while, even if their cultivations were low. Furthermore, just by sniffing the scent of the medicine that filled the air, one’s hunger and fatigue would also be removed.
Everyone remained patient on the lotus platform and waited for the moment for the pills to be cultivated.
In the next 7 days, Xiao Yan, the Qing Ning Holy Man and Gu Yuankai remained calm. They were bothered with the cultivation of their own pills. Because of their peaceful expressions, everyone who was watching felt that time passed very fast.
Only at the 7th day did the situation change.
The three batches of auspicious clouds started to gather towards their own centers. As they became more and more cultivated, they seemed to become fixed entities.
Although time taken was a standard they had to consider in this competition, the three of them only chose to retrieve their pills on the 7th day.
The quality and level of the pills were obviously their focus.
Lin Feng, Yan Nanlai, Gu Jun, Gu Cheng, Zhu Yi, Xiao Zhener, Yang Qing and others whose pill cultivation skills were not shallow could tell the choice of pills for each of the three of them.
To be fair, even while the three pills were different, they all expended a lot of time to be cultivated. It was very difficult for Xiao Yan or the other two to cultivate them within 7 days.
But the three of them still made their choices. This pill contest was a competition among the three of them. It was also a challenge that they set for themselves, involving the confidence and pride of three top pill cultivators. They wanted to use the presence of strong competitors to break through their own bottlenecks.
Lin Feng smiled as he saw this situation, “Indeed, the three of them have got all our heartbeats racing.”
Finally, when the 7th day came, Gu Yuankai was the first to react. He clasped his palms and the green auspicious clouds above his crucible had already consolidated to form a greenish crystal-like entity.
Just a second later, the Qing Ning Holy Man also slapped his palms on the crucible. The golden clouds above his crucible turned into a golden crystal-like entity. After that, it continued to be cultivated and turned into a streak of golden light which entered the crucible.
Gu Yuankai walked quickly around his own crucible and a white lotus flower danced in the sky above. Gu Yuankai slapped the crucible with his palms. After 81 strikes, the Nanming Primordial Fire that flashed with red and blue light in the crucible was unleashed again. A bright, treasure light shot into the sky.
Whereas the Qing Ning Holy Man did not let go of his hands on his own crucible. Streaks and streaks of black Yin-Yang powers gathered around the crucible. They revolved around it non-stop, as if they formed a huge whirlpool.
In the center of the whirlpool, dim green flames danced non-stop and spread to two sides. Similarly, a bright glow was emanated from within and medicinal smell filled the air.
At the same time, there was huge movement on the side of Xiao Yan. It’s just that his movement caused everyone to be shocked.
The peaceful aura within the crucible changed suddenly and was filled with a sense of brutality. The black crucible started to shake tremendously. Even as Xiao Yan’s powers were used to control it, the crucible wasn’t fully stabilized.
The space around the crucible started to distort tremendously and a black crack appeared. Bolts of Void Lightning Tribulations were shot out towards the white auspicious clouds above the crucible.
And from within the auspicious clouds, a fierce and brutal aura was also unleashed. Roars then filled the surrounding space, as if an evil demon had been awakened from its sleep.
As everyone saw this scene, they were stunned, “Did...inner demons surfaced in his pill cultivation and a pill tribulation has been caused?!”
