C17 (2/2)
Xue Fei's words drew a burst of relaxed laughter from Xue Long and the others. One could tell that no one placed the Lan family and Xia Xing in their eyes. With regards to Xue Long and the others, this battle was simply like a fight between a lion and a rabbit.
Lan family, ancestral hall.
However, he did not leave the ancestral hall, not even daring to make a move. It was only because Xia Xinghe was completely focused on refining the pill, Chu Rong was afraid that because of his little movements, or even the slightest sound, it would disrupt the rhythm of Xia Xinghe's pill refining, and even disrupt the flow of this batch of spirit pills!
Suddenly, Xia Xinghe, who was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the ancestral hall, opened his eyes. After a bright light flashed across his eyes, Xia Xinghe shouted in a deep voice, ”Dancheng!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the pill furnace immediately produced a deafening explosion. The heavy furnace lid suddenly exploded and fell to the ground, causing an even louder explosion.
However, the two loud sounds had been completely blocked by Chu Rong because at this moment, the pores all over Chu Rong's body were crazily expanding as he greedily absorbed the strange fragrance that filled the ancestral hall.
Outside the ancestral hall, a thunderous explosion could be heard. Lan Tong, who was guarding the main entrance, and Chu Qingcheng, who was standing proudly on the roof, both subconsciously dashed towards the ancestral hall.
When both Chu Qingcheng and Lan Tong appeared outside the ancestral hall at the same time, a creaking sound rang out as the doors to the ancestral hall was pushed open from the inside.
The pale-faced Xia Xinghe slowly walked out of the ancestral hall. When he arrived in front of Chu Qingcheng, he grinned as he opened his palms. In his palms, there were seven pure white medicinal pellets emanating an intense fragrance.
After speaking, Xia Xinghe retrieved four Spirit Destruction Pills and passed them to Chu Qingcheng. He then continued, ”You, Chu Rong, Lan Yiyi and the clan lord of Lan Tong, one each.”
Chu Qingcheng mechanically received the Spirit Destruction Pill from Xia Xinghe. Her beautiful face was filled with bewilderment and shock as she subconsciously asked, ”Can this Spirit Destruction Pill really help a martial artist to breakthrough?”
Not only Chu Qingcheng, even Lan Tong, who was standing beside her, and Chu Rong, who was still sitting in the ancestral hall in a daze, had expressions of astonishment on their faces.
Without a doubt, the fact that a single pill could break through the barrier of spiritual energy was simply too inconceivable. To Chu Qingcheng and the rest, it was like a miracle they had never heard of before.
Since it was a miracle, how could he accept it so easily and believe it?
”Under the Heaven's Perception, breaking through a layer of the barrier with a single pill is a piece of cake.”
”Under the effect of the Celestial Phenomenon Mirror, the effects are slightly weakened. Only when the bottleneck is reached, will this pill be able to achieve a breakthrough.”
”Now that I've reached the Celestial Phenomenon Mirror, the effects are minimal. I can only use it to consolidate the spiritual energy in my Aura Sea. For example, the master of the Lan Tong clan is currently taking this pill.”
After a few breaths of time, he then continued, ”The Lan family's spirit medicine resources are too meagre. Even if we deplete the remaining resources, we can only concoct six Spirit Destruction Pills at most. However, I don't plan on refining any more Spirit Destruction Pills, I'm prepared to use the remaining resources to concoct other pills …”
Before Xia Xinghe finished speaking, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. At this moment, Xia Xinghe's eyes suddenly became icy cold as he looked towards the direction outside of the Lan family's residence, towards the distance. ”Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu
Sensing the change in Xia Xinghe's expression, Chu Qingcheng and Lan Tong both came back to their senses. Following Xia Xinghe's line of sight, they fixed their gazes in the same direction.
Before Lan Tong and Xia Xinghe could open their mouths, Chu Qingcheng sternly exclaimed, ”They've finally arrived …”
