Chapter 181 Preparing for the Feast
Su Li's anxiety seemed genuine.
Fourth Elder Tang Liu exclaimed, "Ouch!"
"Oh dear, Vice Sect Master Su, there's no time for anything else now, you should hurry up and refine the pills!"
Tang Sanyang really couldn't hold back any longer.
With his cultivation level, he could have broken through long ago, but he forcibly compressed and solidified that spiritual energy.
According to his estimation, it should last at least three more years.
But now he was so overwhelmed by the overflowing spiritual energy that he couldn't utter a single word.
"boom!!"
The once clear sky was now filled with dark clouds that began to gather from all directions.
Tang Chuyang immediately gave the order.
"Quickly, disperse everyone nearby. That lightning tribulation is extremely powerful; if you are struck, you will be instantly reduced to ashes."
The disciples of the Haotian Sect immediately turned and left, and began to take Tang Sanyang's family and servants away from this place.
Finally, everyone within a radius of dozens of miles was wiped out.
With a crack, the first bolt of lightning struck.
"Break it for me!!"
Tang Sanyang gathered all his spiritual energy to form a defensive shield above his head, preventing the tribulation lightning from gaining any advantage.
Su Li placed the herbs one by one into the medicine cauldron, squinting as he examined Tang Sanyang's condition.
That old man is really something; he actually withstood seven consecutive tribulation lightning bolts!
Click!
The sky turned completely dark, and suddenly a flash of lightning streaked across the sky.
Su Li's hand trembled, and everyone heard a loud bang.
It turned out that Su Li was too nervous and didn't control the heat of the medicine powder properly, causing the furnace to explode.
"Cough cough... I'm fine, I can still continue refining pills."
Su Li stretched out a jet-black hand and started another batch of pills with trembling hands!
The people from Haotian Sect originally wanted to blame Su Li, but seeing her like this, they couldn't say anything.
After all, alchemy is not something that can be succeeded 100% of the time.
Tang Sanyang withstood five more bolts of pill lightning and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He knew it... that bitch Su Li, how could she possibly be sincerely refining pills for him?
One after another, bolts of lightning struck down mercilessly.
Tang Sanyang felt as if smoke was starting to rise from the cracks in his bones.
Finally, the Thunder Talisman Pill that Su Li was refining had reached a critical moment.
Familiar talisman patterns were drawn in the void above Su Li.
Finally, a buzzing sound was heard.
Su Li slammed his hand on the medicine cauldron.
"Well, as expected, despite some minor flaws, it was ultimately a success."
The elders of Haotian Sect were overjoyed to hear that Su Li had refined the Thunder Talisman Pill, and they stared intently at the pill.
This caused Tang Sanyang to be struck again.
"Damn it, where's the Thunder Talisman Pill?!"
Tang Sanyang shouted at everyone with all his might.
Tang Yao quickly took the pills over.
"Elder, it will be ready soon!"
As he used his spiritual energy to activate the Thunder Talisman Pill, Tang Sanyang finally had a moment to catch his breath.
He had just sat down, trying to recover his spiritual energy, when he heard Su Li shout.
"Elder, I refined that pill in a very rushed manner, and I'm afraid there might be some mistakes. It would be best if you kept circulating your spiritual energy at all times."
Tang Sanyang: ....
He swore that Su Li must have done it on purpose!
When Tang Liu was undergoing his tribulation, he leisurely ate noodles while advancing in rank. Why should he have to constantly prepare to fight against the lightning tribulation?
However, this is not the time to argue with Su Li.
He gritted his teeth, and even though his spiritual energy was already depleted, he still used it to defend his entire body.
He only had one life, and regardless of whether Su Li's words were true or false, he could not let his guard down.
Click click click.
The lightning in the sky was spitting out flames like a madman.
Seeing that the Thunder Talisman Pill had completely absorbed the Pill Thunder, Tang Sanyang's expression softened slightly!
Once he breaks through to the Void Refinement stage, hmph!
The Haotian Sect can exist without a sect leader, but only Tang Sanyang's decisions can be carried out!
Just as Tang Sanyang was momentarily distracted!
The Thunder Talisman Pill in mid-air developed tiny, almost imperceptible cracks.
Tang Yao and his group had long since lowered their guard.
Tang Liu, in particular, pulled a few people aside to chat.
"Don't worry, you were all there when I advanced, weren't you?"
That Thunder Talisman Pill is truly amazing! No matter how many lightning tribulations come, there's nothing to fear.
Su Li was the first to discover the problem with the Thunder Talisman Pill.
"Oh dear, I can't hold on any longer! Elders, please think of a solution quickly. I'll go and forge another one right away."
It took Tang Yao and the others a while to react before they realized they couldn't hold on any longer.
Just as the group was stunned, a deep rumble came from mid-air.
Immediately afterwards, a bolt of lightning as thick as an arm struck down vertically.
Boom boom boom! !
Fifteen bolts of lightning struck down in quick succession.
The Thunder Talisman Pill shattered instantly, turning into dust!
"Elder, be careful!!"
Someone shouted at Tang Sanyang, who was undergoing his tribulation.
Tang Sanyang himself also sensed that terrifying killing intent.
The spiritual energy around him continuously converged in one place.
"Aaaaaah, you have to hold on for me!!"
Beside Tang Yao and the others, Su Li, his face pale, continued to refine pills.
Everyone who saw it couldn't help but sigh, "Su Li truly keeps his word."
Unbeknownst to them, Su Li had produced a small Thunder Talisman Pill in his hand, which he was defiantly pointing at the air.
The tribulation lightning that was supposed to strike Tang Sanyang seemed to have eyes, and suddenly attacked Su Li instead.
"Be careful!!"
Tang Lingmo was the first to react and blocked with a hammer.
Others also joined in.
But the tribulation lightning seemed to have gained sentience; seeing that everyone was protecting Su Li, it struck straight at Su Li's medicine cauldron.
Boom! !
Flames exploded like thunder inside the cauldron, and the Thunder Talisman Pill, which was about to be completed, was instantly reduced to dust.
The medicine cauldron was destroyed along with it.
"Ah... my medicine cauldron... Senior Brother Conghan, it's my fault for not protecting the medicine cauldron you gave me!!"
Su Li, his eyes bloodshot, crawled to the vicinity of the medicine cauldron.
He held the shattered medicine cauldron and silently wept.
Everyone sighed in dismay; this medicine cauldron was half the life of an alchemist.
Su Li went to such lengths to save Tang Sanyang.
Thinking about their past actions, everyone in the Haotian Sect felt a sense of guilt!
They swore that if they were Su Li, they would never have gone to such lengths.
They risked being struck by lightning to save people.
Just as everyone was thinking about how to comfort Su Li, the Grand Elder had already been flipped three times by the lightning tribulation.
Truly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside!
Su Li opened his wide, frightened eyes and tugged at the robe of the Third Elder, Tang Zhicheng.
"Quickly, does the Haotian Sect have a medicine cauldron? I need to continue refining pills!"
If it's too late, I'm afraid the Grand Elder will lose his life...
After a flurry of activity, everyone finally managed to find a pure gold medicine cauldron in the warehouse.
Without even checking the level, they brought it out directly.
Su Li gently touched it; it was slightly cool to the touch, and a faint spiritual energy lingered within the medicine cauldron.
She couldn't help but exclaim, "It's a wonderful thing!"
After placing the medicine cauldron on the ground, Su Li looked worriedly in Tang Sanyang's direction.
"Everyone, I hope it's not too late!!"
Everyone has different expressions.
The Grand Elder's breath was growing weaker and weaker...
The thunderous roar of tribulation raged throughout the entire Haotian Sect.
Countless houses were razed to the ground.
A deep crater formed within a radius of several miles.
The woman's piercing cries shattered the night sky.
"Elder, please hold on! The pill will be completed soon..."
A trickle of blood escaped from the corner of Su Li's mouth, and his hair was disheveled and stuck to his temples.
Everyone in the Haotian Sect was sweating bullets.
Boom boom boom!
Several more bolts of lightning struck down, and Su Li finally succeeded in refining his second Thunder Talisman Pill.
puff! !
He spat a mouthful of blood onto the pill.
The blue lightning rune was stained with a touch of blood.
Su Li pulled over the Haotian Sect disciple who was closest to her.
"Quickly, activate the pills!!"
The disciple hurriedly handed the pill forward, and Tang Liu quickly urged it to be taken.
Boom boom boom! !
Countless bolts of lightning intertwined, seemingly venting boundless rage.
Tang Chuyang ran to the back, grabbed Su Li's wrist, and channeled spiritual energy into her.
Su Li winked at him slyly.
Tang Chuyang couldn't laugh.
He slowly approached Su Li and lowered his voice.
"Master, why make it so real? Seeing you cough up blood breaks my heart..."
Su Li suppressed a laugh and secretly tugged at the hem of his clothes.
"Then you should prepare a lavish banquet tomorrow to nourish me?"
Tang Chuyang was taken aback, not quite understanding what Su Li meant.
Su Li stumbled to his feet.
I cried so hard, it's exhausting!
However, a smile lingered on her lips.
"With the passing of the Grand Elder of the Haotian Sect, how can this banquet be treated perfunctorily?"
