Chapter 7265 Go Big

The tribulation clouds that filled the sky had been blown apart by a lightning dragon, and countless lightning runes fell through the air. Every rune contained the Grand Dao’s will; even as they scattered, they gave off a frightening pressure. Yet the lightning dragon opened its mouth and sucked them in like a whale sucking in a swarm of krill.

Lei Linger spun in the air, accompanied by countless arcs of lightning. The destructive aura she radiated was simply horrifying to behold.

Lei Linger was nowhere near as weak as she used to be compared to Huo Linger. The latter had the Fusang Trees and the Moon Trees, as well as the Golden Crows and Jade Rabbits; they gave her a huge advantage in both cultivation and battle. But Long Chen had recently fought in so many battles after the new era came, and the corpses of countless beings had been tossed into the primal chaos space.

Any experts that had undergone heavenly tribulation had the tribulation’s power locked inside of them, and recently, that power also contained the aura of the Grand Dao. All of it was released when the primal chaos space devoured their bodies. As the thunderforce was inseparably linked to that Grand Dao aura, Lei Linger now possessed a very mixed aura. She could not hide the aura of the outsider Grand Dao.

She had absorbed Grand Dao power from the nine heavens, and Grand Dao power from the outsiders. Yet neither of them affected her; as a result, this tribulation was powerless before her, and easily devoured.

The Earth Barbarian race’s experts naturally didn’t know this, they were all horrified upon seeing a massive lightning dragon in the sky. It was only when Lei Linger vanished that they realized this terrifying dragon was actually Long Chen’s comrade.

The Demon Moon Cauldron quivered. Its Heaven-Earth runes flashed, and all the energy of heaven and earth seemed to resonate with it. The Grand Dao power in the air was sucked inside.

Long Chen quickly formed hand seals. The Demon Moon Cauldron shuddered, and wild flames erupted inside of it.

BOOM!

Finally, a ripple spread from the Demon Moon Cauldron.

“Success!”

Long Chen waved his hand, and thousands upon thousands of thumb-sized pills came flying out of the Demon Moon Cauldron.

It only took ten drops of the Earth Barbarian Spirit Elixir to refine this many pills. That bowl I drank was truly a waste! Long Chen couldn’t help being aggravated as he stared at the mass of pills before him.

These pills were mostly golden pills, and they had at least reached the high grade. But less than one percent of them were top grade, and there was not a single one at the peerless grade. After all, refining this many pills at a time limited their overall quality, despite Huo Linger’s and the Demon Moon Cauldron’s assistance.

Long Chen counted over five thousand pills. That was actually over two thousand more than he had anticipated. That meant that he had underestimated the power of the Earth Barbarian Spirit Elixir.

Long Chen gave the pills to A’Fu and had him split them between three thousand elites. But they were not to immediately consume them. In fact, once they were distributed, Long Chen unleashed a wave of astral energy that enveloped everyone. With a single step, he brought them all away.

Just as they left, terrifying auras came in from all directions. The disturbance of the heavenly tribulation had caused many of the surrounding tribes to be on guard; all of them had sent a representative to investigate what was going on.

Long Chen used the Star Cloud Steps three times, until they were a long distance away from where he had refined pills. He spread his divine sense and didn’t notice any powerful tribes, and only then did he stop.

The Earth Barbarians were completely stunned by Long Chen’s abilities. Being able to carry so many of them through space at once was a divine ability among divine abilities!

Once he had found a well-hidden place, Long Chen let them consume the pills. As a result, all of them dropped down to the ground, with their faces scrunched up in pain. These medicinal pills made them feel as if their body and soul were both burning. But they trusted in Long Chen, and with their unbending wills, they clenched their teeth and endured the pain without making a sound.

A’Fu was impressed by their determination, and he was filled with anticipation. He could tell that these medicinal pills had great effects on his race. Just as he was about to consume a pill himself, Long Chen raised his hand.

“Hold on, no rush there. These pills won’t limit your younger generation, but they will limit you. I can get you better ones.”

“My lord, how can we ever repay you...” A’Fu quivered. All he had wanted was to save his kindred from the pain of the curse and repay the debt of their ancestors. They were ready to be Long Chen’s servants if needed, and they were ready to die fighting if needed. Yet Long Chen was only helping them instead! Even though he had taken them as subordinates, he was treating them like family!

Long Chen shook his head. “From the moment I took you in, you were my people. And since you’re my people, I want you to be strong. The stronger you are, the better!”

After saying that, he told them to protect the people who had consumed the pills while he refined more. This time, he took out three drops of the Earth Barbarian Spirit Elixir, as well as a clump of the essence blood of a Heavenly Sovereign.

The moment it entered the Demon Moon Cauldron, a terrifying power made the Demon Moon Cauldron shudder.

Shit, the refinement hasn’t even started! If this turns into a pill, I don’t know if I can control it! This time, even Long Chen jumped in fright. He had underestimated the power of this essence blood. If there was such a disturbance right at the start, then he knew very well what would follow. When a pill formed it would devour the power of heaven and earth and grow dozens of times stronger, maybe even hundreds of times stronger!

Even a risk-taker like him couldn’t help feeling regretful. This time, he had bitten off a bit more than he could chew. He should have started with just one drop. However, he had already merged the Earth Barbarian Spirit Elixir and the Grand Dao essence of a Heavenly Sovereign, and it would be a waste to stop the refinement now. He had to go on.

Tch, Long Chen, you are the heir of the Pill Sovereign! Have some confidence in yourself!

Long Chen took a deep breath. There was no going back now! Thus, silently encouraging himself, he summoned the Sun Flame.

As the flame grew, heaven and earth quivered. Streams of energy began to gather from miles away. The outsider Grand Dao power seemed to smell the scent of blood, and it also came rushing in from every direction.

It’s doomed. If this refinement produces a pill, it will definitely shake heaven and earth! Hopefully, it won’t attract a Heavenly Sovereign!

For the first time in a very long time, Long Chen felt that he had gone a bit too far. A vague sense of unease grew inside his heart.
