Chapter 148: Impressive! The Pill that Shakes Hearts!

Chapter 148: Impressive! The Pill that Shakes Hearts!

The golden pill flew several kilometers away. Without the suppression of Xiao Ze's soul power, the violent energy contained within it was no longer controlled. The terrifying energy of the Jiyang Pill was unleashed!

Boom!

A column of golden fire, seemingly connecting heaven and earth, rose from the desolate swamp. The violent energy swept through the swamp, and the scorching heat could be felt even from several kilometers away. With a wave of Xiao Ze's hand, an aquamarine blue douqi barrier rose in front of the mountain, blocking the heat wave.

"If the suppression of my soul power is removed, the Jiyang Pill becomes extremely unstable. That's why I said it was made, but not made at the same time."

Xiao Yi Xian and Ziyan watched the golden fire column connecting the sky and earth in the distance. They looked at each other, thinking about how dangerous it had been for Xiao Ze to make that pill near them.

"Um... Can I go back to the academy?" Ziyan asked, raising her hand, a bit frightened. As a magical beast, she hated fire.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen," Xiao Ze said, waving his hand to reassure her.

When the heat wave subsided, Xiao Ze resumed pill making. This time, Xiao Yi Xian and Ziyan were not as relaxed, fearing that Xiao Ze might lose control and cause the Jiyang Pill to explode.

Outside in the world, there were people as nervous as Xiao Yi Xian and Ziyan. Near Black Border City, deep in the mountains, there was a city called Fengcheng. A large city named after a person was rare in the Black Border region. Clearly, Han Feng, known as the Emperor of Medicines, had that privilege.

Han Feng, in the middle of pill making, was startled by the powerful energy, almost ruining his precious pill. Once he stabilized the pill, he looked towards the depths of the mountain with a serious expression.

"A battle between Dou Huangs? Or even a self-destruction of a Dou Huang?" Han Feng murmured, shaking his head.

He could feel the potent medicinal energy in that explosion.

"Could it be a high-level pill detonated? What an extravagant gesture!"

Even Han Feng couldn't help but admire the gesture, as even he wouldn't want to blow up such a precious pill.

"This energy fluctuation will likely cause a stir in the Black Border region. Not many can realize it's the energy of an exploded pill. Most will think a Dou Huang has fallen."

Han Feng smiled and returned to his pill making.

On the other hand, inside the academy, the Great Elder interrupted his meditation, frowning as he looked outside.

"A battle between Dou Huangs? This is not a good time for more trouble. Better go investigate."

The Great Elder informed the academy elders to stay on alert and headed towards the source of the explosion.

When he arrived, he saw two familiar figures on the cliff.

"Xiao Yi Xian, Ziyan, what are you doing here? Did you cause that explosion?" the Great Elder asked, approaching and seeing Xiao Ze in the valley.

"Greetings, Great Elder. The explosion was caused by a pill Xiao Ze was making," explained Xiao Yi Xian.

"Old man, you should have seen how terrifying that pill was! I think if it exploded in the academy, not many would survive," said Ziyan with a scared face.

The Great Elder looked at Xiao Ze with a mix of surprise and reproach.

"So that's why Xiao Ze is making pills outside the academy," said the Great Elder. Xiao Yi Xian and Ziyan nodded. At first, they didn't understand Xiao Ze's decision, but after seeing the explosion, they understood.

"This young man is making such dangerous pills... and you didn't stop him?" asked the Great Elder.

"I always support Xiao Ze's decisions," said Xiao Yi Xian, shrugging.

"I was brought here as a worker; I can't leave even if I want to," said Ziyan with a sad face.

The Great Elder sighed, seeing how Xiao Ze had gained the trust of these two. "Well, he's an elder of the academy; I can't ignore him. I'll stay here to protect him."

The Great Elder was also curious to know what kind of pill could cause such an explosion.

In the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower, Yao Lao appeared, looking towards the explosion.

"Master, what's happening?" asked Xiao Yan, interrupting his pill making.

"It's an explosion of a high-level pill... what an extravagant gesture."

"Blowing up a high-level pill? Who could it be?" wondered Xiao Yan, surprised.

"I don't know, but in the Canaan Academy, there are no alchemists capable of making high-level pills. I hope it's not someone coming to attack the academy," said Yao Lao.

"Anyway, it's not my business. I must concentrate on improving my skill," said Xiao Yan, returning to his work.

Yao Lao smiled, seeing Xiao Yan's determination.

Xiao Ze, learning from his previous experience, had fewer problems this time. With the power of his soul and control of the fire, a golden pill slowly formed, its energy in perfect balance.

"Now it's done," said Xiao Ze, taking out the Jiyang Pill. The pill's fragrance and gentle energy were evident. It wasn't hot like the previous one but warm and stable.

"Great Elder," said Xiao Ze, greeting the Great Elder.

"Is this your pill?" asked the Great Elder.

"Yes," said Xiao Ze, briefly explaining the effects of the Jiyang Pill. The Great Elder's eyes shone.

"Xiao Ze, can you make one for the academy? It would be a good resource in case of an attack," said the Great Elder. Although the Jiyang Pill had many drawbacks, such as its high cost and difficulty of use, its power was undeniable.

"Sure, but the materials are hard to get," said Xiao Ze.

"Don't worry, the academy has many resources; what's lacking are high-level alchemists," said the Great Elder. "And the academy will reward you by allowing you to choose a high-level formula."

"Thank you, Great Elder. If the materials are sufficient, I'll make several," said Xiao Ze.

The Great Elder smiled, satisfied with Xiao Ze. After the Great Elder left to gather the materials, Xiao Ze gave the Jiyang Pill to Xiao Yi Xian to deliver to the Xiao family and returned to pill making.

One Jiyang Pill had caught the attention of many.
