As all the herbs were placed into the cauldron, Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly flashed with a brilliant light. With a flick of his finger, Lin Yuan instantly summoned the Burning Sea Earth Core Flame. Then, under Medusa's anxious gaze, Lin Yuan quickly brought his hands towards the Myriad Beasts Cauldron.
Boom ! As Lin Yuan's palms approached, the Burning Sea Earth Core Flame grew even stronger. The terrifying heat instantly scorched the entire secret room. With a thought, Lin Yuan's herbs within the Myriad Beasts Cauldron were instantly enveloped by the Burning Sea Earth Core Flame. The terrifying heat caused all impurities within the herbs to vanish at a visible rate. Time passed slowly, and under Lin Yuan's refinement, all the herbs within the cauldron gradually transformed into a pool of liquid energy. The complexity of refining a seventh-grade elixir was beyond imagination. The process of refining the herbs alone consumed the better part of Lin Yuan's day. Finally, when the last herb transformed into liquid, Lin Yuan suddenly opened his eyes. His gaze fixed on the crystal-clear liquid energy within the Myriad Beasts Cauldron, Lin Yuan quickly raised his hands. The next second, they intertwined, and in an instant, Lin Yuan formed several complex hand seals. This series of movements dazzled Medusa. Watching Lin Yuan refine the high-level elixir up close, she finally understood why the profession of alchemist was so highly prized on the Dou Qi Continent. Even the mere act of extracting the herbs alone was beyond the reach of ordinary people, even if they exhausted their stamina. This step, seemingly simple, was the most crucial in the entire alchemy process. If the herbs weren't thoroughly refined, even the slightest impurity, like a speck of dust, remained, it would cause the various medicinal properties to repel each other, ultimately leading to the furnace's explosion. Lin Yuan's movements were fluid and seamless, leaving Medusa dazzled. At that moment, her confidence in Lin Yuan grew even stronger. While Medusa was sighing inwardly, Lin Yuan's alchemy had already entered the next stage. Soul power, like a vast ocean, continuously surged into the Myriad Beasts Cauldron. Blue flames burned fiercely within the cauldron, the scorching heat causing the surrounding space to distort. Lin Yuan controlled his soul power, continuously and infinitely compressing the numerous energies within the cauldron. Under his exquisite control, the various liquid energies within the cauldron gradually merged at a slow pace. Condensing the medicinal properties of numerous herbs together was an extremely time-consuming process, requiring no impatience. Any slight mistake would result in a fusion failure. Furthermore, the numerous precious herbs within the cauldron would be reduced to waste in an instant. Time slipped by quietly as Lin Yuan steadily refined the elixir. In a blink of an eye, seven days had passed. For seven days, Lin Yuan remained like an old monk in meditation, his eyes tightly closed, his posture immovable. Any other alchemist, under such intense exertion, would have collapsed long ago. But Lin Yuan looked so relaxed, not even breaking a sweat. Anyone witnessing this would have been horrified. Suddenly, Lin Yuan's tightly closed eyes fluttered open again, two clusters of blue flames dancing within his dark pupils. "Concentrate!" Lin Yuan suddenly shouted. Buzz! The Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron immediately began to vibrate wildly. "Hmph!" Seeing this, Lin Yuan snorted coldly, increasing the force in his hands once more. Swish!
The Burning Sea Earth Heart Flame danced, its energy surging crazily.
Snap!
Lin Yuan slammed his right hand against the top of the furnace, and the lid of the Myriad Beasts Cauldron instantly flew open.
Instantly, a rich medicinal aroma, accompanied by high temperatures, spread in all directions.
Then, two balls of light swiftly shot out from the cauldron.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.
As if possessed of a spirit, the two balls of light, upon emerging, sped towards the entrance.
"Still trying to escape?"
Lin Yuan's face curled in disdain. He reached out and grabbed the two balls of light, which had just escaped, and immediately pulled them back.
"Condition your elixir!"
Under Lin Yuan's control, the Burning Sea Earth Heart Flame instantly soared into the sky.
The two balls of light, still raging with energy, finally quieted completely under the Burning Sea Earth Heart Flame's watchful gaze.
Then, Lin Yuan's soul power surged once more, continuously compressing the two balls of light in the air.
Ten minutes later, under Lin Yuan's compression, the two energy balls finally condensed to the size of thumbs, becoming round.
Then, Lin Yuan snapped his fingers. "Done!"
Boom!
As Lin Yuan uttered the last word, a dark cloud suddenly and without warning appeared above Medusa's chamber.
Within the cloud, thunder rumbled, and silver snakes slithered about with a terrifying roar.
As the thunder echoed, the entire secret room was instantly filled with the fragrance of elixir, a rich aroma that reached its peak in an instant.
Bang!
A bolt of lightning crashed down, instantly collapsing the chamber's roof!
Even a Nine-Star Dou Huang would be instantly shattered to dust if struck by this devastating thunderbolt!
"Medusa, get out of here!"
Lin Yuan suddenly shouted. Judging by the speed at which the elixir thunder was condensing, if it landed on Medusa, she would be powerless to withstand it.
After all, this was the elixir thunder condensed from two seventh-grade elixirs.
The roar was so powerful it was truly terrifying.
"Lin Yuan..."
Medusa didn't leave immediately. Instead, she looked towards Lin Yuan with concern.
She knew the terrifying power of this elixir thunder. Lin Yuan's days of alchemy must have consumed a tremendous amount of Dou Qi.
She was truly afraid that he would be harmed by this thunder.
"Don't worry about me. Just leave!"
With that, Lin Yuan casually released a burst of Dou Qi, sending Medusa several miles away.
Then, his gaze blazing as the silver lightning gathered again in the sky, "Come, let me see just how powerful the elixir thunder summoned by these two seventh-grade elixirs is!"
With that, Lin Yuan kicked off, his right hand instantly transforming into a fist, and soared into the sky.
Boom!
In the blink of an eye, a silver lightning bolt, so thick it would take several men to hold together, thundered down.
Lin Yuan, unflinching, smashed his fist into the silver lightning.
...
At the same moment, the entire Serpent People were startled by the terrifying sound of this elixir thunder.
Everyone looked upward nervously, their heart breaking in fear for Lin Yuan.
Medusa bit her lips in anxiety, her heart filled with prayers for Lin Yuan.
Just as the entire Serpent People were worried about Lin Yuan, a figure stared intently at the terrifying Dan Lei in the sky, a mad smile spreading across his face.
"Hahaha, Lin Yuan, the power of this Dan Lei is so strong that even a three-star Dou Zong wouldn't be able to withstand it. You're simply courting death!"
The Great Elder laughed heartily. In his opinion, even if Lin Yuan was a Dou Zong, what difference would it make?
Under Dan Lei of this power, anyone below a three-star Dou Zong would surely die...
