Chapter 943: The Fifth Section of the Sacred Dan Temple (1/2)

After entering the first section of the Sacred Dan Temple, the view in front of Huang Xiaolong blurred into a different scene. He arrived at a pill refining square that was completely empty except for him.

As he looked around, mysterious talisman symbols appeared, lining into a formation around the square perimeter.

Just as Huang Xiaolong wanted to move forward, the mysterious talisman symbols lit up one by one, lighting up the whole pill refining square.

Following that, the square pill refining space shook, raining tens of thousands of medicinal pellets like a storm!

Each of these medicinal pellets was as big as half a fist, forming a mysterious array that encompassed the entire square.

Each pill emitted an alarming amount of qi. Judging based on the amount of energy contained within, Huang Xiaolong noticed they were close to being tribulation grade.

He could tell these tens of thousands of medicinal pellets around him were all ancient sacred grade divine pills that were lost in the river of time.

Subsequently, those medicinal pellets began pelting Huang Xiaolong following a peculiar rhythm and uncanny speed. Space was vigorously shaking, evident of the great force behind the attacks. At this speed and force, the average early Seventh Order Highgod Realm master would be hard pressed to take a single hit.

Seeing this, Huang Xiaolong did not dodge at all. Instead, his clenched fist punched out.

With his current strength, punching at full force could pulverize an ancient mountain range into dust, thus, the tens of thousands of medicinal pellets that were trying to ram into Huang Xiaolong were sent flying all over the square.

The shocking matter was that all those pills remained undamaged. After suffering Huang Xiaolong’s powerful punch, these medicinal pellets didn’t even crack, moreover, they quickly rearranged themselves once more into an array in the blink of an eye, beginning their second attack.

Huang Xiaolong’s eyes glimmered with surprise. It seems like what his Master the Ascending Moon Old Man described was true, only by locating the mother pill and capturing it would he be able to break this pill array.

The mother pill was the main pellet that controlled the rest.

But, how was he going to find the mother pill amongst these moving several tens of thousands of pellets? This was really troublesome.

This not only required the trial challenger to be highly proficient in alchemy refining, they needed at least a Seventh Order Highgod Realm cultivation and a certain degree of knowledge in array formations.

Watching the pill array’s second attack, Huang Xiaolong swung out another punch, smashing the array into pieces.

Every time he broke the pill array, he would spread his divine sense to observe every pellet’s movement and peculiarities, sensing the amount of qi they exuded.

Although every single pellet looked similar to each other, the mother pill’s qi would differ slightly.

A skilled alchemist would be able to sense the difference.

Huang Xiaolong continued to search for the mother pill in this manner. After smashing the pill array for the sixteenth time, his expression brightened all of a sudden as his gaze fixed onto a pellet emitting a subtle green glow.

In a split second, Huang Xiaolong appeared above that pellet in a flicker and pulled it into his palm, limiting it’s qi from spreading out.

The scattered pellets on the square that were about to reform the array abruptly stopped moving.

The first section’s pill array was now broken!

Naturally, these medicinal pellets couldn't be wasted!

Huang Xiaolong opened his mouth akin to a whale swallowing water, he sucked every last pill into his mouth, refining and absorbing their energy into his body.

Slightly over forty minutes later, Chen Man and other Eminent Elders waiting outside immediately noticed the second floor lighting up.

After the briefest moment of daze, they were overtaken by amazement.

Even though they had expected that Huang Xiaolong could pass the first section in a short time, passing it in less one hour indeed shocked these elders.

When Chen Man, Wangu Biran, and the rest had cleared the first section in the past, it still took the fastest one at least a day’s time to complete.

Two months went by.
