a muffled bang came from long chen’s pill furnace. a helpless expression appeared on his face.

“it’s been so long since i did any alchemy, i feel out of practice.” he looked at the pile of pill dregs in his pill furnace. not even a single pill had formed.

the seven stamen seaheart fruit was a seventh tier medicinal ingredient, while the sea merging pill was a seventh tier pill. and even amongst seventh tier pills, it would be one of the most difficult to refine.

for most alchemists, their cultivation bases would have to reach sea expansion or above just to refine a sixth tier pill.

last time in the pill tower’s competition, he had refined the overflowing sea expanding pill. although it was a sixth tier pill, it was something used by sea expansion experts. because the requirements and difficulty in refining it were too low, it could not be counted as a seventh tier pill.

a medicinal pill’s tier normally corresponded with a cultivator’s cultivation base: first tier - qi condensation, second tier - blood condensation, third tier - tendon transformation, fourth tier - bone forging, fifth tier - meridian opening, sixth tier - xiantian, seventh tier - sea expansion.

but there were also some special existences amongst medicinal pills. a prime example was the overflowing sea expanding pill.

the overflowing sea expanding pill was one of the common medicinal pills for sea expansion experts. its price was relatively low. other than the overflowing sea expanding pill, there were also quite a few other popular medicinal pills with better medicinal effects. but their price was also multiple times higher.

the sea expansion realm was also a money-burning realm just like bone forging. borrowing the energy within medicinal pills, it was possible to expand the qi sea even further.

the better the medicinal pill, the greater the medicinal energy. as for the sea merging pill long chen was attempting to refine, it was a priceless treasure that sea expansion experts would long for even in their dreams.

but in the outside world, he hadn’t heard of the sea merging pill. it seemed that the world no longer possessed this medicinal pill, or perhaps the seven stamen seaheart fruit was already extinct, so the medicinal pill had also disappeared.

after failing a furnace of pills, long chen smiled slightly. he wouldn’t get discouraged by something so reasonable. if the outside world learned that he dared to refine seventh tier medicinal pills with his xiantian cultivation base, it would definitely frighten many old alchemists to death.

even alchemists whose cultivation bases had reached sea expansion wouldn’t necessarily be able to refine a seventh tier medicinal pill. and even if they could, it would be the comparatively lower level ones, not ones like the sea merging pill. those that could refine that level of pill would be grandmaster alchemists.

long chen rested for two hours before attempting it a second time. in any case, he had a large pile of medicinal ingredients, and he didn’t feel any pressure about failing.

in the end, he failed seven times before succeeding, allowing him to sigh with relief.

in truth, this failure rate was a large blow to him. he was someone who had received the inheritance of a pill god. failing seven times in a row was too embarrassing.

of course, if people knew that he had refined the sea merging pill with his xiantian cultivation base, it would definitely shake the entire alchemy world. there were three questions they would ask: where did he get that much spiritual yuan? where did he get that much soul energy? and where did he get such a powerful pill flame?

but suddenly, long chen thought of a problem. the sea expansion realm referred to expanding the qi sea. but he didn’t even have a dantian. where was his qi sea?

he then suddenly laughed. he really had begun getting afraid over nothing. when had the nine star hegemon body art ever disappointed him?

“brother long, you’ve advanced to sea expansion?” wilde ran over excitedly. the fact that wilde even knew about sea expansion could count as amazing.

little snow also ran over, intimately rubbing his head against long chen. long chen lightly rubbed his head and laughed, “how could that be possible? i’m just at the peak of xiantian right now.”

but long chen had advanced two levels since fighting leng yueyan. his spiritual yuan was much more robust, and his body had been greatly strengthened. his combat power had definitely increased immensely. he had an urge to find some true experts to fight. in fact, he even formed the slightest urge to go find leng yueyan to have a fight, so that they could see just who was stronger in the xiantian realm.

but then thinking about how leng yueyan had her spirit blood and could summon that terrifying figure, he became a bit less confident. then thinking of her practically perfect face, he was speechless. that beautiful, crazy woman said that she would kill him the next time they met. if he wasn’t strong enough, he would be cut down.

he checked the primal chaos space. when he saw that the huge block of phoenix blood black gold had shrunk a great deal, he jumped in fright. he also saw that blooddrinker was still stuck in the ore, motionless. but the runes on it had begun to automatically circulate. a terrifying aura was rising. although it wasn’t moving, the space around it was twisting. even from a distance, it was possible to sense a great pressure.

“what a terrifying aura. just this aura is enough to make others piss themselves. good, good! when the time comes, just how badass will it be to roam around the land with this saber on my shoulder?”

seeing blooddrinker’s amazing power, long chen was incomparably excited. once blooddrinker awakened, it would definitely be unimaginably powerful.

taking a deep breath, he suppressed his excitement. with supreme willpower, he pulled his divine sense out of the primal chaos space. he had almost gotten completely engrossed with just staring at blooddrinker.

right now, blooddrinker was at a critical juncture. long chen swore that he definitely wouldn’t disturb it until it awoke on its own.

“wilde, little snow, did you encounter any powerful fellows outside? i want to test my new power on some powerful magical beasts,” said long chen. his hands were itching for a fight.

little snow immediately roared, saying that he knew a place that should have a powerful existence.

long chen and wilde were delighted, and they immediately set off, with little snow leading the way. on the way, long chen examined wilde’s body and found that almost all his cells had awoken. there were less than three percent still slumbering.

he was delighted to see that. once all of his cells revitalized, wilde’s power would leap to an even more terrifying level. in fact, he might even be able to fight using the barbarian blood bronze body for an extended period.

thinking of that, long chen felt some apprehensiveness. wilde’s power was truly too terrifying. that power practically couldn’t be described with words. it wasn’t based on magical arts, nor was it wasn’t based on a cultivation base. it was just brute force. but that brute force was so powerful that it was chilling.

however, long chen also thought of another problem. his power might increase, but once all his cells were fully activated, it meant that all his cells would need food. thinking of that, his scalp turned numb.

they were still advancing when a furious roar suddenly shook the sky. everything within thousands of miles was trembling. long chen hastily raised his head in horror.

“little snow, you’re trying to get me killed!”
