Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future Chapter 258 – 258 Spiritual Energy Ball

258 Spiritual Energy Ball

With this furnace, the quality of the medicinal pill would increase. Moreover, this kind of fire-controlling technique would also affect the furnace.

“This is a pill furnace? It's really magical!” Shen Fei could not help but praise.

“Haha, Brother Shen, you're too kind,” Wu Tianhao said humbly as he continued to burn the pill furnace with his spiritual fire.

From the side, the other participants were all secretly impressed. With a grandmaster's alchemy skills, the pills they made could be consumed straightaway without any refining. This way, the extra step in the process could also be reduced.

Wu Tianhao's refining technique was so great that even the other participants could not compare!

Soon after, the pill was completely formed. Wu Tianhao picked up the pill furnace and poured a pill from a porcelain bottle into it. Suddenly, the pill furnace burst out with a cyan light and a powerful wave spread out.

Seeing this, all the average alchemists looked at Wu Tianhao in excitement.

“Alright!”

“That pill should be an essence gathering pill!”

Then, everyone, including Shen Fei, walked forward to take turns holding the essence gathering pill.

However, when Shen Fei saw the blue light of the pill furnace, he could not help but be shocked.

‘This pill furnace actually contains spiritual power, and so much of it…' Shen Fei's face looked serious as he thought, ‘Could this be some kind of high-grade spirit treasure?'

In his mind, he kept trying to recall what he knew about this spirit treasure, but he came up with nothing.

At this time, Wu Tianhao had put away the essence gathering pill and said, “Brother Shen, it's time for you to use the Medicine King's Cauldron.”

Shen Fei nodded at this. He took out his Medicine King's Cauldron and started to refine some spirit beast meat.

Although the essence gathering pill was powerful, it could only be refined using a medicinal cauldron. Furthermore, the essence gathering pill that Shen Fei was refining was of the lowest-grade. He could not refine the essence of the pill yet. Therefore, he had to use this cauldron.

“Huh?” Spotting the cauldron Shen Fei took out, Wu Tianhao was surprised, and a little confused. He had never heard of this cauldron before. What kind of medicinal pill could such a small cauldron refine?

He felt a bit haughty at first, but when he got a closer look, his eyes widened!

‘This is… a spirit treasure?' Wu Tianhao's breathing became quicker, and he had a look of disbelief on his face. ‘How was this possible?'

To master refiners, spirit treasures were as important as spirit herbs and spirit stones when it came to weapon refinement, because the value of a spirit treasure was equivalent to ten million gold coins!

“Brother Shen, your cauldron is indeed special!” Wu Tianhao said, suppressing his shock.

“Hehe, a friend of mine gave this to me. He said that it can be used to concoct even the essence gathering pill,” Shen Fei said with a smile.

“So that's how it is!” Wu Tianhao nodded in understanding and thought, ‘Since it's a gift from a friend, it must be a very special item. Otherwise, this kid couldn't have possessed one!'

At this point, Wu Tianhao's gaze toward Shen Fei became even more fervent.

“Alright, let's begin. Everyone, please line up and enter the pill room!” The butler of the mayor's mansion waved his hand, indicating for everyone to begin.

Shen Fei and the others immediately headed toward the interior of the pill room. The mayor's butler led the group of alchemists into the alchemy room.

Soon, a group of alchemists stood beside the pill furnace and put their spirit herbs in one by one. Then, they covered their own Medicine King's Cauldrons.

After half an hour, the pills in the furnace were all refined.

“Congratulations! Wu Tianhao smiled and looked at Shen Fei. “Brother Shen, your results are not bad either!”

“Thank you for your praise, Brother Wu. I don't deserve it.”

“Alright, it's about time to start evaluating your pills,” the mayor's butler said with a smile. Once he finished speaking, a guard walked up with a piece of white cloth and said, “Please draw lots to decide the order.”

“I'll go first.” Wu Tianhao walked over with a smile and took the cloth. As he did so, eight numbers appeared on the white cloth.

[Number one, essence gathering pill; number two, essence gathering pill; number three, essence gathering fruit; number four, essence gathering herb; number five, essence gathering pill; number six, essence gathering pill; number seven, essence gathering pill; number eight, essence gathering fruit; number nine, essence gathering pill; number ten, essence gathering pill…]

One by one, Wu Tianhao drew the second, third, and so on for the medicines he had concocted for the challenge.

Seeing Wu Tianhao's results, the crowd could not help but sigh.

“Goodness! The seventh essence gathering pill has actually become an eighth-level pill!”

“As expected of the essence gathering pill, it's actually so precious. No wonder it took Shen Fei so much effort to refine it.”

“But Senior Wu Tianhao's alchemy technique is too awesome, he succeeded in one try!”

“Haha, it's nothing. In fact, the essence gathering pill Brother Shen concocted is the highest grade,” Wu Tianhao said with a smile.

“What?” Hearing this, everyone was stunned.

How was this possible? The highest grade essence gathering pill?

The few pills that Wu Tianhao had concocted were already quite overpowering, yet there were even higher-graded ones?

However, none of them doubted his words, they did not believe that Wu Tianhao would be one for simple boasting… They naturally assumed that the quality of his pills were higher than Shen Fei's

Wu Tianhao smiled and ignored their expressions. He took the first pill…

Buzz…

At once, the spiritual energy in his body quickly gushed out and circled around him. Then, green rays of light descended from the sky and enveloped him.

A moment later, the green light disappeared, and a fist-sized ball floated in the air. A strong medicinal fragrance was emitting from the round ball.

“This is… a spirit energy orb!” Everyone gasped in a cold breath and their faces were full of shock.

They understood what the spiritual energy orb represented. It was a spiritual energy orb that could only be released when a final-stage martial powerhouse was breaking through!

“Brother Shen, this spirit energy orb can help provide you with more spiritual energy. You can merge it into your spiritual veins to make your pills purer and increase your cultivation speed.”

“Many thanks, Brother Wu!” Shen Fei said.

……

“We shall continue with the next round of the challenge. This time, you shall be divided into groups of three to challenge beasts. However, you cannot use your own spirit beasts. You can only use your own strength to win.”

The mayor's butler smiled at the participants. “The grouping will be done by drawing lots.”

Soon after, all the lots were drawn and the grouping completed.

Shen Fei, Aloy, and Wu Tianhao were in one group. Li Yuan, Xia'er, and Wang Wei were in another group. The other two groups would fight against exotic beasts.

After the lot-drawing had ended, everyone walked toward the exotic beasts they would be challenging.

Before Shen Fei and the others was a massive Green Wolf! The Green Wolf was very powerful, and had reached the peak level of the martial earth realm.
