Chapter 413
Melee
"What is that? Even the Tianfeng City's defensive formation couldn't withstand the thunderbolt attack, but this thing can completely ignore the power of the thunderbolt!"
In the distance, Qin Shang looked at the poisonous insect with shock and shouted in disbelief.
The God of Gamblers showed a rare solemn expression, and said solemnly: "This is a Gu worm that has never appeared in ancient times. There is no Gu worm with similar abilities. It is not ruled out that he created it himself."
"This boy is truly a genius. He can control the power of thunder and lightning, so he must be invincible among his peers. His future cannot be underestimated."
"Oh? In that case, isn't this the unique recipe of my Long family? It's really a unique recipe that goes against the will of heaven!" Long Xiaoyao stroked his beard and smiled, then turned to look at Feng Tiancheng standing beside him and said:
"Now, it is unknown whether this Gu can withstand all the thunder tribulations. If the elixir is destroyed by the power of the thunder tribulation, will it count as a score?"
"But even if the points are not counted, it doesn't matter. Now the elixirs of both Elder Burning Heaven and Elder Qi Tian have been destroyed by the power of the thunder tribulation."
"If the pills of these three people are not scored, then Long Yuyao of my clan has the highest total score. In either case, my Long clan will win."
Feng Tiancheng clenched his fists, his face looked extremely ugly, he did not reply, his eyes fixed on the central area of Tianfeng City.
That area had been destroyed by the power of the thunder, and the economic losses were incalculable. His heart was bleeding, so he had no mind to respond to Long Xiaoyao.
A highly respected fourth-grade alchemist in the crowd said, "Of course it counts. According to the rules of ancient times, it counts."
"In the distant past, alchemy had already developed to its peak. There were endless recipes for elixirs that could bring about thunder tribulations, and there were also many alchemy geniuses who could make elixirs that could bring about thunder tribulations."
"In ancient alchemy competitions, it was common for the pills made by alchemy geniuses to attract thunder tribulations, but few people could protect the pills from the power of thunder tribulations."
"Therefore, in all the alchemy competitions in ancient times, as long as the elixir produced attracted a thunder tribulation, it would be counted as a score regardless of whether it could successfully survive the thunder tribulation or not."
Feng Tiancheng did not argue, because things were just as Long Xiaoyao said, the Long family won regardless of whether the points of the elixirs destroyed by the thunder tribulation were counted or not. Since the results were the same, there was naturally no point in arguing.
"Haha! In this case, the outcome of this competition is no longer in doubt." The God of Gamblers glanced at Feng Tiancheng and Wang Hu, and continued:
"Now I declare that in the bet between the Long Alliance and the Feng Alliance, the Long Alliance wins, and the Feng Alliance loses half of its clan fortune to the Long Alliance."
"In the bet between Huiyue Empire and Yanting Empire, Yanting Empire won, and Huiyue Empire lost half of its clan fortune to Yanting Empire!"
"This alchemy competition is really exciting. It's worth the trip! Hahaha..."
Amid the God of Gamblers' laughter, all the Feng clan and Wang clan Gu cultivators felt as if they had lost something. They didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but both clans' Gu cultivators showed ugly expressions, and some even felt desperate.
On the contrary, the Gu practitioners of the Long and Qin families cheered. They just felt as if they had something extra, and they didn’t know if it was a psychological effect, but each of them felt extremely comfortable all over.
Amid the conversation of the crowd, the last thunderbolt finally descended from the sky.
There were thirty-six reincarnation thunders in total, each one stronger than the last. Before anyone knew it, thirty-six reincarnation thunders had already fallen on the city. The last one was as thick as a wellhead and struck down without mercy.
Although Jie Gu was already covered in wounds and exhausted, it was now full of energy and its eyes were bright.
Seeing this thunder tribulation as thick as a wellhead descending, it was not afraid at all. Instead, its eyes were filled with fighting spirit and it flew towards the thunder tribulation again.
"boom!"
Under everyone's shocked gaze, the robbery Gu was knocked away again, but this thunder robbery as thick as a wellhead was also broken into pieces and flew to other places, and various places in the city were further destroyed again.
Unfortunately, one of the lightning bolts landed right on the alchemy furnace.
"boom!"
How could the alchemy furnace withstand the bombardment of thunder and lightning? It was directly blown into pieces by this thunder and lightning.
Seeing this scene, everyone showed a look of regret.
Did it fail? Many people thought in disappointment that it was a pity in their lives that they could not see with their own eyes what the elixir that brought about the thunder tribulation looked like.
Just when everyone was extremely disappointed, a glowing green pill flew out and attracted everyone's attention.
The pill was emerald green all over, emitting a charming green light. A person's shadow could be seen faintly moving inside the pill.
There is actually a human shadow in a pill, which shows its extraordinary nature.
At this moment, everyone became alert, with excited looks on their faces, secretly sighing that it was worthy of being a magic pill that could bring about thunder calamity, and its appearance was unique.
"It's done, it's done, hahahaha... I didn't expect that this guy, a mere third-rank alchemist, could actually successfully survive the reincarnation thunder tribulation! And refine a pill that is strong enough to attract the thunder tribulation."
"How incredible is a pill that can bring about the thunder tribulation of reincarnation? I can't wait!"
Long Xiaoyao stared at the green pill flying into the air with burning eyes, unable to contain his excitement.
At this time, everyone was breathing rapidly, their eyes fixed on the pill. This pill had attracted everyone's attention.
"What a pity that the full pill of this pill recipe is only one."
Qin Shang showed a look of regret. According to the rules, if a contestant only succeeded in refining one pill, then this pill would belong to the organizer of the competition.
There were ten countries hosting the competition, so one pill was not enough to share. The leaders of each country were already thinking about how to distribute this heaven-defying pill.
The God of Gamblers laughed and said, "It's normal to have only one pill in the full pill. The more powerful the pill is, the fewer pills it will produce. This is the law of nature. It's impossible for such a powerful pill to produce dozens of pills in one furnace."
"Since the thunder tribulation is over, let's go over there too!"
"Tsk tsk! This is a heaven-defying elixir that can attract reincarnation thunder. Even I have never seen one before."
The God of Gamblers smiled and walked towards the square. The others were cheered up and hurried to follow him.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.
The heaven-defying elixir flying high in the sky finally aroused the greed of some people. This was a mysterious elixir that was powerful enough to attract the thunder of reincarnation. Who wouldn't be tempted?
At this time, the surroundings were empty and there was no one, and the city defense formation had been destroyed, so there was no obstacle to retreat.
Therefore, some Gu Kings wanted to snatch this miraculous elixir and run away.
Isn't it easy to snatch the elixir from a Spiritual Sea Stage Gu Cultivator?
Therefore, some greedy people could no longer control their greed and rushed up the moment the pill flew up.
When the pill flew to the highest point, a masked Gu King at the peak level was the first to arrive. He grabbed the pill flying high in the sky and ran away.
Long Xuan's original body had already strategically moved away, leaving only five clones. These five clones took turns to watch the furnace. Even though they were fighting a round-robin battle with Lei Jie, they were all covered in wounds and in low spirits.
Seeing a great Gu King at his peak rushing towards them, they were all startled. They didn't care about the elixir in the sky at all. They turned around and ran away without even a thought of the miraculous elixir in the sky.
They all inherited Long Xuan's fear of death, so how could they risk their lives for a pill?
They didn't dare to intercept the Gu King. Even if the Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill was lost, he still had the Living Wood anyway. The worst that could happen was that he could just refine another Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill.
Even if the Gu King hadn't snatched it away at this moment, Long Xuan was not going to take the Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill. Such a heaven-defying pill would be too hot to hold in his hands and could easily bring about fatal disaster.
Therefore, when seeing someone trying to snatch his Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill, Long Xuan did not feel the slightest bit of pain. He had not intended to take this pill in the first place anyway.
Seeing the pills being snatched away by a mysterious person, the judges who were walking slowly towards this side became anxious.
"How brave!"
"court death!"
"Put it down!"
……
All the judges were so angry that they rushed over here like crazy.
According to the rules, this pill should belong to the organizer of their competition. This is a blatant robbery of their things. How can they not be anxious?
The first ones to arrive were the brave Gu Kings who were watching the thunder tribulation from a close distance.
They were bold to begin with, and seeing the city's defenses were empty, how could they not want to rob it?
There were far more than just the mysterious peak Gu King who planned to snatch the heaven-defying elixir and run away. The moment the elixir flew up, many greedy people rushed up at the first opportunity.
Therefore, the mysterious Gu King was stopped by the Gu King coming from behind before he could run far.
Before the two Gu Kings could even fight a few moves, the rest of the Gu Kings arrived immediately and joined the battle.
When the mysterious Gu King saw that things were not going well, he threw away the Bone-Growing Blood-Melting Pill in his hand. From then on, the Bone-Growing Blood-Melting Pill kept changing hands, and from time to time a Gu King would be stabbed from behind while scrambling for the Bone-Growing Blood-Melting Pill, and die tragically in a pool of blood.
A fight between the Gu Kings broke out in the center of the city. The situation was getting out of control and was no longer within the control of the judges who had rushed over.
Even the Old Ancestor Fentian and the Old Ancestor Qitian began to covet the Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill. Now that the competition was over, they naturally had no scruples and joined the battle one after another, participating in the fight for the Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill.
With these two ancestors joining the battle, the scene became even more chaotic. Every time the two ancestors took action, a Gu King would fall in a pool of blood.
With the addition of the two ancestors, the number of Gu King deaths began to increase rapidly, and soon the ground was covered with corpses.
Soon, all the Gu Kings were frightened by being killed by the two old demons and dared not compete with them anymore. They ran away one after another and gave up the fight for the Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill.
At this time, there were only two people left on the field.
One is the ancestor Burning Heaven, and the other is the ancestor Qi Tian.
The two men stood facing each other on the ground full of corpses, staring at each other with serious looks in their eyes.
The battle between these two old demons is about to begin... (End of this chapter)
