Chapter 1287: Top-Grade Elixir

After all, Xu Changqiu is a top-tier alchemist, so he naturally saw the intricacies at a glance.

He then calmly spoke: “The reason he is in this state now is because the properties of the miracle fruit are very strong, so it’s necessary to constantly observe the situation within the medicine cauldron. If there is any carelessness, the cauldron will explode directly!”

“The final result can be imagined…”

“And now we’ve arrived at the most crucial step, it might even provoke a Heavenly Thunderbolt. Once a top-grade elixir is successfully concocted, the Heavenly Thunderbolt will appear across the sky. That will be when your intervention is truly necessary!”

Wang Zhan slightly frowned, he didn’t expect things to be so complex.

Moreover, it was life-threatening.

However, he felt extremely grateful, because after all, everything Zuo Linglong was doing now was for the people of the Sky Pavilion.

So no matter the circumstances, Wang Zhan had to unconditionally protect Zuo Linglong, to prevent any accidents from happening.

Since there was no further nonsense, all attention was fully focused on Zuo Linglong.

Everyone was waiting for the moment the elixir was completed.

After two days, Zuo Linglong remained in the same state as before, not even moving during this time.

And of course, Wang Zhan continued to guard here.

Inside the Sky Pavilion, everything was harmonious, and there was no change due to Zuo Linglong’s situation.

“It’s almost done…”

Xu Changqiu suddenly squinted his eyes, his gaze fell on Zuo Linglong, and saw that the medicine cauldron in front of him was shaking violently, clearly reaching the most critical moment.

“The situation is not as good as we imagined, even a bit worse, we must always be fully prepared, be sure to handle any emergencies!”

Wu Yanxu quickly spoke up, clenching his fists tightly.

Wang Zhan also nodded along, his attention fully focused on Xu Changqiu. After glancing at Li Xiaomei beside him, he quickly said, “You shouldn’t linger here any longer, hurry back to the front, find a crowded place to hide.”

Although Li Xiaomei didn’t want to leave, she knew she would only hold back if she stayed. She nodded her head in agreement.

Soon, she moved toward one side.

Meanwhile, Wang Zhan and the others continued focusing on Zuo Linglong.

Everyone’s hearts were in their throats, all were waiting for the moment the elixir was formed!

As waves of elixir fragrance wafted through, the degree of shaking of the medicine cauldron became increasingly intense.

Simultaneously, the Hexagonal Golden Snake and others inside the Sky Pavilion opened their eyes slowly, no longer in the mood to continue in seclusion.

Since the Sky Pavilion had become a sealed space, they could feel that the Spiritual Energy within was much more abundant than before!

But all of this seemed to be because of the strange elixir fragrance!

“It seems that Zuo Linglong has crafted another top-grade elixir, that young lady indeed has some skills!”

The Fire Qilin and Sword Spirit had already gathered, evidently awakened by the scent in the air.

And the Sword Spirit stood quietly in front of the window with arms crossed, calmly observing everything outside.

With strength at his level, he naturally sensed where this scent originated.

He could also tell that at this moment Wang Zhan was right beside Zuo Linglong, clearly acting as a protector for her.

This relieved any worry they might have had.

With Wang Zhan ensuring Zuo Linglong’s safety, no accidents were bound to happen!

“I wonder what kind of elixir that young lady has forged, to have such a strong elixir fragrance?”

“But no matter what, it will undoubtedly benefit us immensely.”

“Why don’t we go take a look now, to verify the birth of a top-grade elixir?”

The Fire Qilin had never seen a top-grade elixir, only heard tales of them.

It’s said that when a true top-grade elixir appears, even Heaven and Earth will change color because of it.

And isn’t that precisely what’s happening now?

The air’s scent and the concentration of Spiritual Power in the space had both been transformed!

If this state could be maintained, it would greatly benefit the people inside the Sky Pavilion.

It could even enhance their power significantly in a short period.

The Sword Spirit nodded in agreement, evidently sharing the same thoughts as the Fire Qilin.

In a flash, someone had already rushed quickly in the direction where Wang Zhan was located.

At this moment, the Soul-soothing Beast and Hexagonal Golden Snake couldn’t sit still, and both hurried to the area where Zuo Linglong was.

But despite the appearance of everyone, none of them disturbed Wang Zhan and the others.

They now feared influencing Zuo Linglong.

After all, the elixir Zuo Linglong was crafting was a top-grade elixir, so utmost caution was required at every step. Any slip could lead to backlash against Zuo Linglong, naturally preventing the elixir from being released!

Everyone held their breath, and at this moment, Zuo Linglong had become the focus of everyone’s attention.

With a loud noise coming from the sky, they saw the medicine cauldron in front of Zuo Linglong shaking violently, and cracks appeared all around it!

This clearly showed how powerful the impact of the elixir inside was.

“Do I need to intervene now?”

Wang Zhan didn’t know when to make a move, as this was the first time he encountered such a situation.

Wang Zhan’s gaze had already fallen on Xu Changqiu and the others, clearly waiting for their response.

After exchanging glances, they all nodded.

The earlier noise didn’t come from the medicine cauldron but because the Sky Pavilion is an enclosed space. Now, the Spiritual Energy here has become increasingly dense, causing spatial tears, and if unchecked, the Sky Pavilion will soon explode!

The formation techniques Wang Zhan set up earlier will have no effect!

By then, everyone inside Tian Ge Zhi will not survive unscathed.

Wang Zhan suddenly soared into the air, and just before the medicine cauldron was about to explode, he swiftly reached Zuo Linglong. He raised his hand, and the vast energy instantly formed beams of light, encircling the medicine cauldron!

Wang Zhan’s expression was extremely grave, his gaze constantly on Zuo Linglong beside him.

Zuo Linglong remained with her eyes tightly closed, appearing to have entered a state of Spirit Void.

If he couldn’t suppress the power generated within the medicine cauldron, it would eventually explode, and Zuo Linglong might not withstand the impact with her current power.

Ultimately, she might lose her life.

This was an outcome Wang Zhan did not want to see.

Seeing Wang Zhan struggling so much, the Hexagonal Golden Snake in the distance prepared to step in.

But just as he was about to move, he was stopped by the Soul Guardian Beast beside him.

“Why are you stopping me?”

“Can’t you see the situation is becoming more uncontrollable? And with Wang Zhan’s strength, he won’t last long; the outcome is evident…”

“We must act now and help Wang Zhan suppress the situation, to prevent it from deteriorating!”

“The top-grade elixir is important, but we must save everyone’s lives first!”

Even with a top-grade elixir, it only enhances cultivation a bit.

But if one’s life is lost, what good is enhanced cultivation?

The Soul Guardian Beast firmly said, “Now is not the time for us to act.”

“Haven’t you noticed? The medicine cauldron is already under extreme pressure. If we intervene now, it might exert additional impact on the cauldron, causing it to explosively burst!”

“Not only would the elixir inside be completely ruined, but the resulting impact is not something ordinary people could withstand.”

Although the few people present were strong, able to protect themselves to some extent, there were still many powerless individuals in Tian Ge Zhi.

Like Li Xiaomei and others…

The Soul Guardian Beast understood Wang Zhan’s character well, knowing that unless absolutely necessary, sacrifices should not be made to aid Wang Zhan!

Furthermore, even if the medicine cauldron exploded now, while Wang Zhan might suffer minor injuries, his life wouldn’t be threatened.

So things haven’t gotten so bad yet.

The Hexagonal Golden Snake gritted his teeth so hard that they almost shattered, then he slammed his fist into the ground.

“It’s really frustrating, we can only stand here and watch, unable to help Wang Zhan.”

“Now we can only silently pray for Wang Zhan…”

“I believe this guy can definitely create a miracle.”

Wang Zhan has created miracles before, and perhaps this time Wang Zhan will surprise them again.

Even if they didn’t want to gamble, they had no choice.

After all, with things as they are, they could only hope for the best outcome.

The Fire Qilin and Sword Spirit both heard the Soul Guardian Beast’s words and also abandoned their thoughts.

With everyone’s gaze returning to Wang Zhan, they could see traces of blood at the corners of his mouth, indicating he was becoming fatigued…

“If he continues, Wang Zhan might not hold out!”

“But if he lets go, Zuo Linglong will be gravely injured!”

“This is a truly difficult choice…”

The Fire Qilin spoke with grit, his expression becoming increasingly grim.

The decision was still in Wang Zhan’s hands, and whatever he chose, it would depend on his own resolve.

“I do have an idea…”
