Chapter 300: Breakthrough to the Fifth Level! A Sudden Change Occurs!

In the central area of ​​Shimo City, at the headquarters of the Senior Brother Mercenary Group, in a courtyard, a tall young man was standing in the middle of the courtyard. In front of him was a red medicine cauldron with several giant snake patterns on the body.

At this moment, in the center of the medicine cauldron, a ball of golden liquid medicine the size of a ping-pong ball was floating, and around it, a pair of large hands condensed by soul power were wrapping it inside.

Liu Ling's bronze face gradually flushed as the liquid medicine resisted.

"I didn't expect that the formation of a fifth-grade elixir would be so much more difficult than that of a fourth-grade elixir."

Liu Ling sighed in his heart, but he also knew in his heart that if he could successfully refine this elixir this time, he would be able to directly advance to the level of a fifth-grade alchemist.

The change in Liu Ling's face was seen by the two maids in the yard and Yue Mei, the leader of the Charming Snake Clan.

During the few days that Liu Ling had been imprisoned in this courtyard, Yue Mei had watched Liu Ling refine pills four times. In the previous four times, Liu Ling refined fourth-grade pills, and each time he succeeded very easily. However, this time, the expression on Liu Ling's face changed much more dramatically than the previous times.

Looking at Liu Ling who was concentrating on refining pills, Yue Mei was secretly shocked and said, "He should have refined a fifth-grade pill this time. At such a young age, he can actually challenge the fifth-grade alchemist. Isn't this much stronger than the Dan King Gu He of the Jiama Empire when he was young!"

After having this thought in her heart, Yue Mei looked at Liu Ling with a strange look.

During the time she was captured, she was not abused except that her cultivation was sealed. Although she was occasionally teased by Liu Ling verbally, Yue Mei could feel that there were no dirty thoughts in the boy's clear eyes.

Then, when Yue Mei saw the medicine cauldron trembling violently, there was a trace of worry in her eyes. She was worried that Liu Ling would fail in refining.

…

"I don't believe that I can't refine a fifth-grade elixir!"

As the soul power was in a stalemate with the power contained in the medicine liquid, a thought flashed through Liu Ling's mind quickly, and then he took a deep breath of the hot air, his face flushed instantly, and his right palm facing the medicine cauldron gradually opened, and then trembled and slowly clenched again, and a low shout came from his throat: "Condense for me!"

After the shout fell, Liu Ling's palm suddenly clenched tightly, and as his palm clenched, the medicine liquid in the Red Snake Cauldron, which was only the size of a ping-pong ball, trembled violently, and then shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a blink of an eye, the medicine liquid had disappeared, replaced by a thumb-sized pale golden pill prototype.

The pill was formed, and the most difficult step had been passed. Cold sweat dripped down Liu Ling's forehead, and he took a few quick breaths of air.

Great!

Seeing the pill in Liu Ling's medicine cauldron take shape, Yue Mei's nervous mind suddenly relaxed, and then a smile inexplicably appeared on her face, making her look very charming.

Under Yue Mei's gaze, Liu Ling's palms were emitting purple flames, and began to slowly release the scorching temperature to bake the irregular pill prototype.

Although the most critical step of pill coagulation had been completed, Liu Ling's mind still did not dare to relax at all.

In the medicine cauldron, purple flames kept rising, and the scorching temperature turned the inside of the medicine cauldron into a furnace, and the irregular pill prototype slowly became rounded during the baking, and the luster on its surface became more and more dazzling. From a distance, it was like a golden gem, emitting dazzling light in the purple flame.

After the pill was formed, Liu Ling completed the following steps of baking, polishing, etc. perfectly. However, such delicate operation also made Liu Ling's forehead sweat more and more densely, and his face became a little pale with rapid breathing. All these signs showed that Liu Ling was about to reach his limit.

At this moment, a graceful red figure suddenly flew out from the snake army stationed outside Shimo City, and arrived above Shimo City in just a moment.

Suddenly, a strong pressure enveloped the entire Shimo City. In an instant, everyone in Shimo City felt a palpitation. At the same time, a golden figure came to the vicinity of the red figure as soon as this momentum spread.

When the snake girl Yue Mei in Liu Ling's courtyard noticed this familiar breath, she suddenly looked up at the sky.

"Your Majesty!"

"Great, Your Majesty is here to save me!"

Seeing the red light spot in the air constantly colliding with the golden light spot, Yue Mei's face showed a deep joy.

The next moment, her eyes were fixed on Liu Ling in the field. At this time, in the Red Snake Cauldron in front of Liu Ling, a violent energy was churning around in the cauldron.

"At this time, he is still concentrating on refining the elixir!" Yue Mei muttered, and a thought suddenly emerged in her mind.

"He is now at the critical moment of refining the elixir. If I interrupt him, he will definitely lose all his previous efforts, and he may even be backlashed and seriously injured!"

However, after this thought came up in her heart, she shook her head violently.

"In the final analysis, putting aside the hatred between races, this person is actually not bad. Moreover, if he hadn't imprisoned me in this courtyard, with my current strength, I don't know what kind of torture I would have suffered!"

"Forget it, I'll let you go this time, which is also a way to repay your favor. In the future, we don't owe each other anything."

After Yue Mei made a decision in her heart, in the sky outside Shimo City, two more figures flew towards the city one after another.

"I noticed Yue Mei's aura, it's in that courtyard!"

Not long after entering the sky above Stone Desert City, the two leaders of the snake tribe, Mobas and Kuixing, noticed Yue Mei's aura and began to fly towards the courtyard where Liu Ling was.

"boom!"

At the same time, Liu Ling's red snake cauldron suddenly made a dull sound, followed by Liu Ling's somewhat excited laughter.

"Haha! Haha! Young Master, I finally broke through and became a fifth-grade alchemist."

After saying this, Liu Ling's eyes suddenly condensed. In his sight, two strong snake men with huge fighting spirit wings appeared in the sky not far away.

"Hey, be good, two strong warriors!"

Seeing these two snake men, Liu Ling's heart skipped a beat.

When he was refining the elixir just now, he already knew that Queen Medusa of the Snake Tribe was coming, but with Xiao Jin blocking her, he planned to persist in refining the elixir. Now, he had to face two powerful warriors alone.
