Chapter 558: Chapter 558: The Efficacy of Dragon Tiger Pill【Five Updates】

After a full breath of time, the rare phenomenon finally vanished from the two perfectly crafted Dragon Tiger Pills.

Although the phenomenon had disappeared, a faint, shimmering glow could be seen on the two Dragon Tiger Pills, distinctly different from those of first-class quality.

"Am I seeing things?"

In the hushed silence of the Alchemy Hall, a shocked voice broke the stillness.

"Just now, I thought I saw a phenomenon. How could it be similar to the descent of Heaven and Earth Laws as described in the legends?" another astonished voice rang out.

"It was indeed the descent of the Laws! It must be... Divine Pills have emerged, and not just one, but two of them!"

"Could they be Dragon Tiger Pills? I recall reading about them in an ancient classic. The phenomenon that just appeared matched the description from the classics. Had it not been for the phenomenon, I may never have made the connection!"

"It must be the Dragon Tiger Pills, I’ve also encountered descriptions of them. Some Pill Masters on the Heavenly Origin Continent were able to refine Dragon Tiger Pills three thousand years ago."

Pill Masters usually study a vast amount of Alchemy Classics, so it wasn’t surprising that a few here were familiar with the Dragon Tiger Pills.

The key was, without witnessing the phenomenon, even the Pill Masters who knew of Dragon Tiger Pills wouldn’t have linked Jing Yan’s creation with them, for Dragon Tiger Pills had not been seen for a very, very long time.

Moreover, the Dragon Tiger Pill was an elixir of extreme importance to Martial Artists.

The effects of the Dragon Tiger Pill were very special. This elixir could heal the Divine Soul.

During cultivation, it’s easy for a Martial Artist’s Divine Soul to be damaged. While cultivating, one is usually very careful not to harm their Martial Arts Meridians and Fog Vortex, which are foundational to a Martial Artist. Once damaged, recovery can be difficult and often requires considerable time and resources.

Thus, Martial Artists are particularly cautious with their Martial Arts Meridians and Fog Vortex during cultivation.

However, avoiding damage to the Divine Soul is difficult.

For instance, Postnatal Martial Artists attempting to break through to the Innate realm will surely affect their Divine Soul if they fail. The same holds true for breakthroughs from the Innate to the Dao Spirit and from the Dao Spirit to the Daoist Master Realm.

That is why Martial Artists are exceedingly cautious when attempting to break through major realm shackles. They try every possible way to accumulate resources and only attempt a breakthrough when they feel fully prepared.

Despite these precautions, successful one-time breakthroughs are very rare.

Failure in a breakthrough will inevitably harm the Divine Soul, requiring a long period of rest. Some Martial Artists may never recover their damaged Divine Soul in their lifetime, losing any chance of further breakthroughs.

The Dragon Tiger Pill, being an elixir that could heal the Divine Soul, would allow a Martial Artist to repair their damaged Divine Soul in a relatively short time, giving them another opportunity to break through the major realm shackles.

One can imagine the significance of the Dragon Tiger Pill to Martial Artists. Moreover, the Dragon Tiger Pill is not just effective for ordinary Martial Artists but also for those in the powerful Dao King Realm and even the Dao Emperor Realm.

However, Martial Artists of lower realms, having weaker Divine Souls, would see greater healing effects from the Dragon Tiger Pill. Higher-level Martial Artists would need more Dragon Tiger Pills to heal their Divine Souls.

On the Heavenly Origin Continent, there were some low-level elixirs claiming to be Nourishing God Pills and the like, but those were fundamentally different from the Dragon Tiger Pill.

Those elixirs have a nourishing effect on martial artists whose Divine Souls have not been damaged. However, once the Divine Soul is damaged, attempting to repair it with those elixirs is simply impossible.

Of course, even the Dragon Tiger Pill can only restore the Divine Soul. If the Divine Soul is missing a piece, then the Dragon Tiger Pill is also unable to make it whole.

It’s like a beautifully crafted vase, if there are only a few small cracks on the surface, then the Dragon Tiger Pill can restore it to its original state. But if the vase is shattered, or a part is missing, then the Dragon Tiger Pill cannot make the broken vase whole or regrow the missing part.

Even so, the Dragon Tiger Pill is still something every martial artist dreams of obtaining. freewebnøvel.com

Although the Dragon Tiger Pill is merely a sixth-level elixir, it holds much greater appeal than higher-level elixirs for martial artists. Especially now, since on the Heavenly Origin Continent there is no Pill Master who can refine Dragon Tiger Pills. This type of elixir is only recorded in ancient classics, and the pill formula has completely disappeared.

The people inside the Alchemy Hall certainly never imagined that in their lifetime, they would actually witness the Dragon Tiger Pill appear before them, and moreover, see it being refined with their own eyes.

"How is this possible? How can he refine the Dragon Tiger Pill?" Wan Li, a judge, perhaps the one who least wished to see the Dragon Tiger Pill, was staring wide-eyed at the elixir in Jing Yan’s hands.

"Interesting! At first, I thought that the elixir synthesized by Alchemist Jing Yan would absolutely be no match for the Golden Pattern Sun and Moon Pill refined by Alchemist Wan Lai, but now, it’s hard to say," said a judge with shock in his voice.

"Yes! Although there are only four Dragon Tiger Pills, it seems that two of them are of perfect quality!"

"It’s truly unimaginable, Alchemist Jing Yan can actually synthesize a Divine Pill acknowledged by the Laws of Heaven and Earth!"

"..." The judges all sighed with emotion.

Most of the judges probably believed that the Dragon Tiger Pills refined by Jing Yan were more valuable.

In some respects, the Dragon Tiger Pills that Jing Yan had refined were not something that could be compared with the Golden Pattern Sun and Moon Pill refined by Wan Lai.

The meaning they represented was not on the same level at all.

However, because Dragon Tiger Pills had already disappeared, their value was also not easy to measure. The final match of the Alchemy competition was about the final value of the elixir in terms of Spirit Stones, and this still required further careful study; judgements should not be made based on subjective speculation about which was more precious, the Golden Pattern Sun and Moon Pill or the Dragon Tiger Pill.

"Alchemist Jing Yan, please let me see the elixir you have refined!" Hu Donghe spoke up.

As soon as Jing Yan had taken out the elixir, Hu Donghe had thought of the Dragon Tiger Pill. However, at the time, Hu Donghe did not dare to be sure, after all, he had never seen a real Dragon Tiger Pill. But when the anomaly appeared on the Dragon Tiger Pill, that was almost confirmation that what Jing Yan had refined was indeed the Dragon Tiger Pill.

"Sure!" Jing Yan responded immediately.

The white-robed elder looked deeply at Jing Yan, seriously took the Dragon Tiger Pill from Jing Yan’s hands, and quickly presented it to Hu Donghe.

Hu Donghe also examined the Dragon Tiger Pill with a serious expression.

At this moment, Wan Lai’s face was incredibly ugly, as black as the bottom of a pot.

What was once a guaranteed victory in the Alchemy competition seemed now to have become uncertain. The cooked duck appeared to have the potential to fly away.

He was not willing to accept this!

His gaze shifted sharply, glaring fiercely at Jing Yan, his eyes full of icy intent. His mouth twitched as if he wanted to speak, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
