Chapter 3749 - 9 The Pill Tribulation and the Limit Divine Pill

Duan Ling Tian was rather upset that he failed to refine the Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills since they were only god-grade Divine Pills. Moreover, he had read the revised technique to refine them from one of the records in the Linghu clan's library. The technique had listed each step in detail, and yet, he still failed. Hence, he was disappointed and upset.

'Let's try again. I still have enough medicinal herbs to do so. If I fail, then I'll take a break. Perhaps, I just don't have the talent to become a divine alchemist…'

Duan Ling Tian tried to refine the three pills again for the second time. He was even more serious than before and made sure that he followed the instructions exactly. He was also very cautious when he reached the purification stage where he had previously failed.

God-grade Divine Pills would usually form after the refining stage since there was no need to purify them with the vitality energy from the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. After all, god-rank divine alchemists did not have the ability to extract vitality energy from the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. Unlike Divine Pills with higher grades, the success rate of refining god-grade Divine Pills was quite high because there was no need for the purification stage.

'Should I purify them anyway?' Duan Ling Tian wondered to himself, 'According to the record, the success rate is 100% if I can successfully purify the pills. Naturally, if I fail in the purification stage, it will result in immediate failure. If I don't purify the pills, the success rate is about 60%…'

After coming this far, Duan Ling Tian was not satisfied with the 60% success rate. Moreover, he could easily obtain vitality energy from the Divine Tree of Life in his Little World instead of extracting it from the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. All he needed to do was slightly release the vitality energy in his Little World to the outside world.

With just a thought, Duan Ling Tian released the vitality energy in his Little World and guided it to the Divine Pill Cauldron. When the pills were done absorbing the vitality energy, he quickly closed his Little World again.

If a lord-rank divine alchemist was present, he or she would have been shocked by the large amount of vitality energy that Duan Ling Tian released. They would have been distressed as well if they knew such a large amount of vitality energy was used only to refine god-grade Divine Pills.

After all, even the most outstanding lord-rank divine alchemist could only extract less than 10% of the vitality energy that Duan Ling Tian released.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian was fully focused on the pills that were about to form.

After a moment…

"It's done!"

Duan Ling Tian smacked the cauldron lightly before three Divine Pills shot out. He instinctively reached out to grab the Divine Pills. The Divine Pills looked exactly like the ones he obtained from the Zhou clan's auction in Skywind City. However, the fragrance of the Divine Pills was stronger and glowed brighter.

"Hm? What are these?" Duan Ling Tian soon discovered that, unlike the ones he obtained from the Zhou clan's auction, there were conspicuous ancient words on the Divine Pills he refined. The ancient words for 'primary', 'secondary', and 'tertiary' could be seen on the pills respectively.

"Hmm? I thought that only Limit Divine Pills have ancient words on them?"

Suddenly, a clap of thunder rang from the sky. At this moment, the helpers in Duan Ling Tian's courtyard looked at the sky in confusion.

"Uncle Fu, what's happening?"

AT

TA

Wang Fu was shocked when he saw the dark clouds gathering above Duan Ling Tian's courtyard. "This… It seems like the Heavenly Tribulation. However, I don't think anyone here is facing the Heavenly Tribulation… None of you are Kings of Gods, and Young Master Duan should've just passed his Heavenly Tribulation recently," Wang Fu muttered.

At this time, the sound of wind whistling rang in the air as something broke through the roof of one of the rooms.

"Uncle Fu, look! What's that?!"

"It came from Young Master Duan's room!"

Before Wang Fu could reply, a figure shot up into the sky with a loud boom. "Young Master?!" Swoosh!

Wang Fu flew up into the sky and chased after Duan Ling Tian. He had a feeling the strange phenomenon had something to do with Duan Ling Tian.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

At this time, many elders and disciples of the Linghu clan began to gather.

"What's going on?"

"Hey, isn't that the courtyard where the new interim elder, Revered Elder Duan, is staying?"

"I heard that Revered Elder Duan has already become a rudimentary King of Gods. This means he has already passed his first Heavenly Tribulation. In that case, what's this? Don't tell me the housekeeper of his courtyard broke through and is facing the Heavenly Tribulationnow?"

"No. I know the housekeeper there. He faced his first Heavenly Tribulation 300 years ago."

"How strange…"

With this, many people flew over to Duan Ling Tian's courtyard. Since they did not dare to trespass into his courtyard, they only watched from outside.

At this moment, a cry rang out in the air.

"Clan Leader!"

With this, the crowd parted and made way for Linghu Ren Jie.

An old man with white hair followed closely behind Linghu Ren Jie. His eyes were bright as he looked at the dark cloud in the sky that loomed above Duan Ling Tian's courtyard.

The lightning bolts that flashed in the dark clouds were rather strange. They were not purple, but they were reddish-brown.

"Elder Wu, something's strange with this Heavenly Tribulation. This doesn't seem to be a King of Gods' Heavenly Tribulation…" Linghu Ren Jie said to the old man.

"Clan Leader, this isn't a Heavenly Tribulation. It's a Pill Tribulation that's likely triggered by a Limit Divine Pill," the old man explained.

"The Limit Divine Pill?!" Linghu Ren Jie was shocked. Although he was not a divine alchemist, he knew that the Limit Divine Pill was a top Divine Pill. Each pill that was refined by different divine alchemists had different qualities. Each of the pills had an ultimate quality that made them the Limit Divine Pill.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this time, accompanied by a clap of thunder, a long lightning bolt stuck at what looked like three dots in the sky.

Following that, a thicker lightning bolt appeared and struck again. Similar to the one before, it seemed to be absorbed by the three dots in the sky. After that, the dark clouds gradually dispersed. At this time…

"It's a Pill Tribulation!"

"Good heavens! So this is the Pill Tribulation triggered by a Limit Divine Pill?!"

"There were two bolts of lightning earlier!"

"Wait. Are those three dots the Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills?" There was no lack of knowledgeable people in the Linghu clan, after all. It did not take long for them to figure out what was going on even if they had not experienced such a thing before "Duan Ling Tian."

In the sky, Duan Ling Tian had just put away the Divine pills when he heard Linghu Ren Jie calling out to him. He instinctively turned around and saw Linghu Ren Jie and an old man.

"Clan Leader," Duan Ling Tian greeted Linghu Ren Jie. He was surprised when he discovered a crowd had gathered near his courtyard. He had been too focused on the Pill Tribulation earlier that he did not pay attention to his surroundings. After all, if his pills failed the tribulation, his pills would be flawed. Even then, an imperfect Limit Divine Pill was something anyone could easily refine.

"Duan Ling Tian, is your friend here? Did he refine the Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills?" Linghu Ren Jie curiously asked. He looked around his surroundings, trying to find the person who refined the pills. He did not think such a figure would join the Linghu clan, but he thought it was good being able to get to know such a person.
