Immortal Hero: I Can See the Success Rate Chapter 104 – Lightning Pool Sacrifice

Lin An immediately searched the success rate system's storage space to see if there were any pill formulas of higher quality.

After a brief search, he found two pill formulas.

One of them was a grade three pill that specialized in treating lightning injuries.

Without hesitation, Lin An quickly refined it.

Bang!

He lifted the cauldron's lid, and a muffled sound rang out, attracting the curiosity of the four creatures around him.

Suddenly, a seven-colored cloud rose from the cauldron. At the same time, blue electric arcs flashed through the cloud like a small thundercloud.

“What… What is this thing?”

“Am I seeing things? Why is there such a phenomenon?”

The rabbit-eared alchemist was stunned.

“Is this the dan cloud phenomenon?”

She was so shocked that her voice trembled as she gazed at the cloud.

The medicinal herb in her hand fell to the ground with a thud, and she looked at Lin An in disbelief.

Once a dan cloud phenomenon appeared, it meant that the pill that had been refined was a top-grade medicinal pill.

In the alchemist profession, pills were classified according to grades, and there were different grades depending on the quality of the pill.

With the rabbit-eared girl's current strength, if she was lucky, she could only refine a mid-grade fortifying pill.

However, the fortifying pill that Lin An had just refined was a high-grade pill.

After the rabbit-eared girl exclaimed out in surprise, the other creatures were instantly shocked.

“A high-grade, grade three pill is even more precious than a four-star pill. Doesn't that mean that his alchemy skills are comparable to those of a four-star alchemist?”

“How is this possible? A peak golden core stage four-star alchemist!”

Instantly, everyone gazed at Lin An in awe.

However, the nascent soul stage demon witch seemed to have thought of something, and her expression froze.

She quickly pulled Lin An out of the pill refining room and entered the small forest outside to find a quiet place.

After standing still, she looked around cautiously and said with a serious expression, “Monkey, let's go to the lightning pool now. We can't wait any longer!”

After a brief pause, the nascent soul stage demon witch continued, “There are definitely traitors in our tribe, but I still don't know who they are. If the traitors reveal the news that we have successfully refined a supreme-grade pill, in a few days, all the other tribes will attack our tribe. Even the human army might be drawn here!

For your safety, and the survival of our tribe, we have to head to the lightning pool immediately. With our tribe's mighty figures there, we'll definitely be able to protect you.”

Lin An didn't care much about his safety. He had a lot of treasures in his arsenal. Even if he had to face enemies all over the world, he was confident that he could find a way to survive.

However, if a disaster were to happen, and the nascent soul stage demon witch's tribe was wiped out, then Lin An would definitely be troubled.

Therefore, he immediately agreed to the nascent soul stage demon witch's request, and they immediately set off.

At that time, Lin An also learned that the nascent soul stage demon witch actually had a human name, Su Peibai.

She also revealed that there was a restriction within the area of the lightning pool, and the creatures inside couldn't use spells. Additionally, there was a barrier set up on the outside to guard against intruders.

According to Su Peibai, if non-demons crossed the barrier, they would attract the backlash of the entire lightning pool.

Although the demon race had gradually declined over the years, humans had never breached the lightning pool holy land.

Lin An suddenly felt a little guilty. He didn't know whether the mask on his face would be able to pass through the identification mechanism of the so-called lightning pool.

[Ding! According to the system's estimation, this restriction runs through the entire lightning pool area. As long as the host steps inside the area, the probability of being discovered will be 100%.]

A notification from the success rate system instantly rang in Lin An's ear, but his heart was also greatly chilled. However, another notification immediately popped up on the virtual screen in front of Lin An's eyes.

[Ding! According to the system's estimation, as long as the host temporarily seals his cultivation, he can use the acting mask to avoid the lightning pool's restriction. The probability of being discovered will be reduced to 1%!]

Just as Lin An was feeling dejected, the success rate system immediately delivered some positive news.

His eyes lit up, and he hurriedly looked for a treasure that could seal his cultivation in the success rate system's storage space.

“We can go in now!” Lin An casually said to Su Peibai after he had used the treasure.

Afterward, the two of them headed towards the entrance of the lightning pool.

Lin An passed through the barrier undetected, and his body felt nothing strange.

After he was inside the lightning pool area, he saw a multitude of demons.

All kinds of strange-looking creatures were resting around the lighting pool as they waited for the lightning tribulation sacrificial ceremony that would take place the next day.

Lin An also saw the reason why the place was called the lightning pool.

In the middle of the demon-populated area, there was an enormous pool.

Inside the pool, violent lightning bolts interweaved, and the electric arcs were so dense that they condensed into a liquid state. This was the origin of the pool's name.

At first glance, Lin An felt his scalp go numb. He thought that even an infant transformation stage powerhouse would be killed instantly if they entered the pool.

As time passed, the number of foreign demon tribes around the thunder pool increased, and as the night gradually arrived, countless stars appeared in the sky.

At that moment, a strange-looking demon man suddenly walked in front of Lin An and Su Peibai.

From its neck to its tail, it had the body of a dog, but its head was in the shape of a human.

“Su Peibai, our leader asked me to give you a message. Once daybreak arrives, you can't activate the power in the lightning pool. You can only transcend your own nascent soul heavenly tribulation. Otherwise, we can't guarantee your tribe's safety.”

With that, the human-headed dog turned around and left with a loud laugh.

Su Peibai was so angry that her entire body trembled. However, she couldn't make a move in the lightning pool area, or else the lightning pool would kill her.

She tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart and took a deep breath to control her emotions.

After a few hours, the sky gradually brightened, and the time for the lightning tribulation sacrificial ceremony arrived.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning crashed from the sky and struck the lightning pool.

The violent lightning bolts surged crazily, and the crackling sounds echoed in the surrounding area. For a moment, it seemed as if the nearby space would be torn apart.

However, in the next moment, the lightning bolts interweaved and formed a huge altar that spanned across the sky above the lightning pool.

All the creatures raised their heads and looked up, their faces full of respect and solemnity!

“The lightning tribulation sacrificial ceremony, that only happens once every hundred years, is finally coming!”

“I wonder which unparalleled genius will emerge this time!”

“In terms of strength, I'm afraid it will be Su Peibai and the Sky Demon King.”

“I think Su Peibai is better. I saw that she has already cultivated to the great circle of the nascent soul stage. With her advantage in the lightning tribulation ritual, she should be able to trigger the six heavenly tribulations!”

“Yeah, besides her cultivation of the great circle of the nascent soul stage, she can also trigger two heavenly tribulations. That's eight heavenly tribulations in total! It seems that she could take over the demon emperor's throne.”

“Not necessarily. The strength of the Sky Demon King is also quite formidable.”
