Fishing The Myriad Heavens
/ Fishing the Myriad Heavens Chapter 180
Right now, everyone's eyes were on Mo An alone! This time, he was truly the center of attention of thousands of people!
Mo An felt his head getting lighter and lighter as his mental power was almost depleted. But, he was still quite some distance away from forming his pill!
Mo An did not want to give up, and could only grit his teeth and persevere tenaciously. His head felt like it was about to split open, and his eyes felt incomparably drowsy.
"Hong!"
A dark green ray suddenly shot out of the cauldron, straight into the pill cloud above it! The pill cloud rumbled violently as it began to expand at a crazy rate!
One meter!
Two meters!
Three meters!
The pill cloud only stabilized and stopped growing after it had reached a radius of five meters!
‘How could there be such a huge pill cloud!?’
You Lun and Long Jian's faces flickered with disbelief.
The two had always treated each other as their only rivals. However, an unknown person who had appeared out of nowhere was actually able to suppress the two of them together! This fact was an extremely difficult thing for them to accept!
At this moment, the two geniuses were praying fervently in their hearts. ‘Please do not let his pill refining succeed!’
The sinister-looking green cloud did not dissipate like before. Instead, it began to spin like the eye of a mini tornado!
"That's the phenomenon of the birth of a Superior Grade pill!"
The 3 star alchemists stood up from their seats in an instant as they exclaimed with agitation!
Superior Grade! That was something that most alchemist could not hope to refine in their entire lifetime!
Refining a Superior Grade pill had nothing to do with the grade of an alchemist. The more important factor was luck!
"Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!"
Deng Wen Gong also stood up as he exclaimed the word excellent three times in a row!
Although the presence of luck was indisputable, the fact that the boy was able to refine a Superior Grade pill at this age meant that his future was boundless!
With how advanced Deng Wen Gong was in years, he had never actually managed to refine any Superior Grade pills before! He had only seen those before.
You Lun and Long Jian's expressions were exceptionally bitter to behold as they exchanged a glance. This glory should have belonged to the two of them. As long as it was one of them who obtained the first place, the other would still feel better even if he did not win.
Mo An was in a state of ecstasy, ‘Superior Grade pill! I've actually refined a Superior Grade pill!’
Superior Grade pills was like a badge of honor for an alchemist. An achievement like this was enough to raise the value of that alchemist by one fold!
The huge pill cloud suddenly shrunk inwards, infusing itself into the pill. When the air cleared, a single resplendent green pearl could be seen lying quietly at the bottom of the cauldron. Not a single whiff of fragrance could be smelt from it.
Naturally, Mo An's pill was personally examined by Deng Wen Gong. Deng Wen Gong looked at the round pill in his hands as if it was a piece of art. In that moment, he almost could not bear to pop it into his mouth.
There was only a single pill, and a black line ran along it, forming a thin ring around the clear, green pill. Upon closer inspection, this simple-looking black line was actually made up of countless tiny intricate runes!
Deng Wen Gong looked at the pill for a long moment. Although it would be sufficient to just scrape off a bit of the powder on the pill for testing, he still decided to place the pill directly in his mouth. The main issue was that Deng Wen Gong wanted to see for himself what difference in the amount of energy there was between a Superior Grade pill and a Common Grade pill!
"Hmm?"
As soon as the pill entered his mouth, Deng Wen Gong could feel that something was out of the ordinary. Previously, when he placed the two pieces of pills in his mouth, they had melted instantly. But this time, there was actually no reaction.
"Crunch!"
Deng Wen Gong cocked his head slightly in consideration. This was a Superior Grade pill after all. It's perfectly reasonable that it's different from other pills! As his thoughts traveled thus, he bit down ruthlessly on the pill without any hesitation. The pill immediately broke apart into tiny pieces and was swallowed. Even when the pill had sunk into his stomach, Deng Wen Gong did not feel the slightest bit of medicinal energy spreading out.
"Strange, I can't feel anything yet. Even if the medicinal energy of a Superior Grade pill is hidden deeply, it shouldn't be this deep, right?"
He murmured softly.
"Hong!"
Just as his thoughts were straying off, a huge burst of medicinal energy suddenly spread forth from Deng Wen Gong's stomach!
‘F*ck! This pill is poisonous!’
Deng Wen Gong's face changed drastically. The huge amounts of medicinal energy suddenly spreading from his stomach was not an issue for him. But the energy in the pill was not medicinal energy which was beneficial for advancing a human's cultivation. Instead, it was poisonous medicinal energy!
"Ke-dang!"
Deng Wen Gong collapsed heavily to the ground as his body twitched uncontrollably. From the looks of it, he looked as though he was going to croak at any time!
"Elder! Elder! Quick, bring the antidote pills here!"
The group of 3 star alchemists rushed over immediately as they poured a bunch of antidote pills into Deng Wen Gong's mouth!
"Where's the sect's law enforcement unit! Hurry up and capture this traitor!"
A 3 star alchemist shouted angrily. In an instant, four, five black-robed men rushed out and grabbed at the stupefied Mo An!
"I've been wronged! The pill I've refined was definitely a Superior Grade Green Agrimony Pill! How could it be a poisonous pill!"
Mo An struggled desperately. In an instant, he had fallen from heaven into hell!
A moment ago, he was the center of attention. But right now, he had turned into a traitor, scorned by the masses!
"Pei, pei! (TL/N: spitting sounds) What kind of poisonous pill have you concocted? It's so powerful that even the elder could not withstand it! This pill of yours is really impressive!"
You Lun saw that the situation had changed, and did not waste any time in walking forward to sneer at Mo An.
Truthfully, Deng Wen Gong had brought this upon himself. If he had just scraped off a bit of the unknown pill's powder and tried it, it wouldn't be a big problem. But, he insisted on swallowing the entire thing and even waited for the medicinal energy to explode. Wasn't that just seeking death?
At this time, a thin fishing line suddenly descended from the sky. Bei Feng chuckled evilly to himself as he looked at the crowd of people below, flustered and lost. This was the perfect time to literally fish in troubled waters!
Bei Feng examined his surroundings through the limited vision provided by the System.
A radius of five meters could not be said to be large, but was not small either. From what he could see, the people beneath the hook were all wearing luxurious spatial rings!
‘What a pity. I can only look, but not touch!’
Bei Feng was almost drooling with envy as he saw the way those people were taking bottles after bottles of pills from their spatial rings as though it was trash.
But after some thought, he could only give up on that plan. After all, he did not have any special techniques which would allow him to directly land the hook on those people's spatial rings.
As for fishing the person wearing the ring up? That was even more useless. He still remembered back when he'd caught the Fox of Human and Natural Calamity, when he'd accidentally hooked a human. That person was obviously caught by the magical hook, but was not affected at all!
His second idea was to reel in a few items on the table nearby. From the way those items were placed, he could tell that those were extraordinary things with just a single glance.
The numerous pill cauldrons sat under the sun, each one shining more resplendently than the one beside it. Bei Feng set his sights on an elaborate looking purple cauldron and immediately directed his line towards it!
The pill cauldron looked like it was completely cast from violet gold. Its frame appeared simple and natural, and large amounts of intricate figures of birds, flowers, fishes, and insects were engraved on its sides.
"Don't come over here, don't come over here!"
Bei Feng chanted nervously under his breath as he observed a man walking towards the table. As he was controlling the line from the other side of the well, the speed at which the line moved was very slow. He tried to change the direction of the line to avoid that person, but no matter how he tried, he was unable to move the line away!
In the next moment, the hook was directly trodden into the ground, causing it to latch onto the Frosty Starlight Pillar which was used to suppress the fire vein under the earth!
At the same time, a white giant eagle was gliding through the sky with a speed as fast as lightning! All of a sudden, it saw a white light flash past in the corner of its eye. Despite its excellent eyesight, it could not even see the actual object at all!
"Ying!"
The giant eagle screeched. It seemed to have bumped into something with its wings?
F*ck! Where's my wing?!
The giant eagle screeched with shock. One of its wing had been severed cleanly and was falling to the ground with a huge amount of blood trailing from it!
The fishing line was already as thin as silk. Yet, it was extremely hard and durable! Adding the speed that the eagle was traveling at, it resulted in a scene like this.
This scenario was similar to how an inconspicuous piece of taut wire could turn into the most dangerous weapon on the road if a motorcyclist somehow drove right into it while traveling at a hundred kilometers per hour!
"Ding!"
As a result of the collision, the fishing hook could not hold onto the Frosty Starlight Pillar, and was pulled out of it! The enormous force caused the entire mountain to tremble slightly. One could imagine how huge the force was to cause such an effect!
The freed fishing hook now rebounded upwards with incredible momentum. In an instant, it swooped past the prize table, conveniently bringing a jade strip along with it as it rose into the sky!
