I'm About to Die, Can't I Buff My Junior Sister's Strength?

213: The Pill of Returning to Emptiness, the Six-Patterned Ancient Demon Pill!Rumble!

In the already scorching Fentian Capital, muffled thunderclaps suddenly resounded one after another.

Immediately after.

Everyone present looked up at the sky, only to see dark clouds appearing one after another in the previously silent firmament, with rolling thunder surging within them.

“Pill Thunder!”

“So many?”

“Damn, are they mass-producing Soul Transformation Stage Pills?!”

“Although this Pill Refining Convention was held somewhat hastily, it has gathered the Alchemy Geniuses of Fentian Capital. It’s natural that they can achieve this…”

As the Pill Thunder appeared in the sky, a clamor arose from all around the square. Immediately, everyone’s gaze fell upon the Alchemists.

The one who triggered the Pill Thunder and refined a Divine Grade Medicinal Pill was that eccentric old man who had been spouting nonsense from the start.

“This old man looks almost as old as my grandpa, is he really under twenty?”

“Alchemists, it’s understandable to look a bit old…”

And at this moment.

Xiao Qinger, who was concentrating on Alchemy, also showed a hint of emotion, glancing at the Pill Thunder in the sky.

“Is this the level of Alchemy Geniuses in a capital city of the Upper Realm?”

“Almost all of them are Soul Transformation Stage Medicinal Pills…”

Xiao Qinger felt a hint of pressure, but her eyes were filled with confidence.

The next second.

Boom!

A thunderclap, more terrifying than all the previous Pill Thunders combined, resounded.

In an instant.

A bolt of lightning, like a black Dragon, suddenly erupted in the sky, baring its fangs and claws, carrying the might of world destruction, and suddenly plunged down, landing directly on the young man on a stone platform.

This young man was Zuo Qiu.

However, a confident smile hung on his lips. Protected by a Divine Talisman, he easily received this Pill Thunder.

Immediately after.

Sizzle sizzle.

A refreshing Medicinal Pill fragrance diffused, and within it, a wisp of dao principle Qi circulated… “earth sovereign pill.”

“One of the extremely difficult Soul Transformation Stage Medicinal Pills to refine. Only with a slight chance of breaking through the Soul Transformation barrier can it possess the power of Void Return dao principles. Good, good, good!” The Pill Hall Grand Elder’s eyes showed admiration as he praised Zuo Qiu with three consecutive “good” words.

The Pill Hall Elders all expressed their admiration, while the Elders of Fentian Holy Land showed proud expressions.

“As expected of the number one Alchemy Genius of Fentian Holy Land, truly formidable. To be able to refine a Medicinal Pill close to Void Return at only twenty years old, he will surely enter the Dao through Alchemy in a few more years!”

“earth sovereign pill! What a magnificent earth sovereign pill. Those who understand the meaning behind it will know. Isn’t Young Clan Master Shen the future Emperor of the Eastern Profound land?”

“Hahaha, it seems the winner of this Pill Refining Convention will be Zuo Qiu!”

“Exactly, exactly. They say Fentian Holy Lord has a daughter and a son. His daughter has monstrous cultivation talent, possessing the Heavenly Fire Body, and forged her dao palace before thirty, making her the undisputed number one among the younger generation in Fentian Capital. His son has outstanding Alchemy talent since childhood, a born Alchemist. Truly living up to his reputation!!”

Under the fawning flattery of the crowd, Zuo Qiu curled his lips, holding an eye-sized Medicinal Pill in his hand. He then turned back, casting a provocative glance at Xiao Qinger, as if saying, ’You trash, what will you use to win against me?’

But the next second, his eyes widened, revealing an expression of disbelief.

“Impossible!”

“Absolutely impossible!”

“Ancient Pill Ascension Method, how could she know it? She can’t possibly succeed!!” Zuo Qiu instantly felt a breakdown.

The Ancient Pill Ascension Method, as the son of a Holy Land master, he naturally knew this method and had even studied it. But it was too difficult; it not only required the Alchemist’s Divine Soul to be powerful but also a certain opportune moment. Even a tiny mistake would lead to complete failure, but once successful, the Medicinal Pill would immediately rise one grade.

He had also thought of using this method to elevate the earth sovereign pill directly into a Void Return Pill, the Heavenly Emperor Pill, but he had no confidence at all.

However, Xiao Qinger’s technique at this moment was a Pill Ascension Method he had never seen before!!

Even the various Elders of the Pill Hall showed expressions of shock. The square was instantly drawn to the woman in the corner, where infinite dao principles were already circulating.

At this moment.

Xiao Qinger had no time to pay attention to the surrounding gazes. Sweat was already trickling down her forehead. Large, rolling Nascent Soul Yao Race heads were thrown into her Pill Furnace. Under the refining of the Azure Moon Spirit Fire, they instantly melted into spiritual liquid, converging into the black pill that was almost formed.

Time passed minute by minute.

Until she had refined a full thirteen Nascent Soul Great Demon heads, she then softly called out in her heart.

“Xiao Qing.”

The child-like Xiao Qing on her shoulder immediately nodded, extending both hands. Azure exotic fire surged forth, and the high temperature of the exotic fire instantly caused the space around the Pill Furnace to show signs of distortion. One must know that the stability of space in the Upper Realm was dozens of times that of the Lower Realm.

Immediately after.

A golden Divine Phoenix pattern appeared between Xiao Qinger’s brows. She lightly bit her index finger, and a drop of golden blood flew into the Pill Furnace.

Bang!

The power of dao principles went completely wild.

“Empress said that if this Pill Ascension Method is assisted by my divine blood, the success rate will greatly increase. Everything that could be done has been done, and all the precious Materials found during this period have been used up. The rest can only depend on fate…” Xiao Qinger showed a determined gaze, staring at the Pill Furnace, constantly changing the Ancient Pill Ascension Art in her hands, and softly whispered in her heart.

One could only see.

Buzz!

The power of dao principles grew denser and denser. Divine light was already circulating around the Pill Furnace, and within it, six black Medicinal Pill patterns gradually formed… “Six patterns…” The Pill Hall Grand Elder narrowed his eyes, taking a sharp breath.

“It’s going to succeed…”

“No!”

“It’s all because of the exotic fire!”

“How can this native of the Lower Realm be worthy of possessing exotic fire, how can she be worthy of possessing this Pill Ascension Method?!” Zuo Qiu gritted his teeth, jealousy distorting his face.

I cannot lose!

How could I possibly lose to an ant from the Lower Realm!!

Immediately, Zuo Qiu’s expression darkened, and a sinister glint flashed in his eyes.

Whoosh!

A black Divine Needle flew out from his hand like a phantom, its target pointing directly at Xiao Qinger’s Pill Furnace.

This scene happened too quickly, but which of the Pill Hall Elders weren’t at the Void Return level? They naturally saw it, but they all pretended not to notice, keeping their eyes downcast.

And the Grand Elder of the Pill Hall also had his eyelids twitch, his aged hand trembled for a moment, then he sighed helplessly.

“Alas~”

“It’s only because you didn’t join the Third Pagoda Master’s sect…”

“This Pill Refining Convention is nothing more than a play staged by the Fentian Holy Lord as a gift for his young son. Its purpose is to give Zuo Qiu an excuse to get acquainted with Young Clan Master Shen. This Pill Refining Convention exists because of Zuo Qiu, otherwise, why go to all this trouble…”

However, his inner thoughts were heard by no one.

There were also high-level Cultivators around the square. They also noticed this, but everyone understood implicitly, at most secretly cursing Fentian Holy Land for being shameless in their hearts.

But in Fentian Capital, no one dared to provoke Zuo Qiu.

Swish!

The black needle reached the Pill Furnace in a blink of an eye. Xiao Qinger also sensed the anomaly, opened her eyes, and gritted her teeth. But seeing those few unmoving figures in the sky, she immediately understood that they had tacitly approved it…

Just as she was about to desperately protect the Pill Furnace.

A figure appeared beside the Pill Furnace, grabbed the black needle, and crushed it into powder with a strong grip.

“Qinger, focus on your Alchemy. This Old Ancestor wants to see how shameless this Fentian Holy Land can be!” Xiao Xuan, who had been watching all this from below, stepped onto the stage, clenched his fists, and his eyes burned with anger.

“You old geezer, how dare you stop me!” Zuo Qiu looked coldly at Xiao Xuan. If it were before, he would have shown him some respect, after all, he was a Grand Elder.

But now it was different.

A Void Return Seventh Layer, Zuo Qiu had many ways to kill him.

However, with so many eyes watching, he wouldn’t directly make a move. That would completely expose his inability to accept defeat, wouldn’t it?

However, a thunderclap resounded!

The Pill Thunder surging in the sky was terrifying to the point of suffocation. This had already surpassed the Soul Transformation level, and this lightning was unusual, also having three colors.

“Damn, three-colored Pill Thunder??”

”A Void Return Pill, this is a six-pattern ancient demon pill!!”

“Unbelievable, how did this Xiao Qinger, at the Nascent Soul Stage, refine a Void Return Medicinal Pill? Her Alchemy talent is a bit exaggerated!”

“But how does she plan to receive this three-colored Pill Thunder?”
