Chapter 392: A Crushing Victory!

At this moment, the red medicine liquid in Liu Ling's Red Snake Cauldron seemed to feel the compression force from the surroundings, and suddenly fluctuated violently. With each fluctuation, extremely powerful energy ripples would burst out from it, and finally collided with the invisible hand formed by the soul power.

"Bang!"

On the stone platform, the medicine cauldron suddenly trembled slightly, and a crisp collision sound came from it.

As the medicine cauldron trembled, Liu Ling's face also changed slightly. He stomped his feet on the ground, and suddenly clenched his palm towards the medicine cauldron in the air. It looked like he was going to crush the air in front of him.

As Liu Ling's palm clenched, the violently churning medicine liquid in the medicine cauldron suddenly stagnated, and the invisible hand formed by the surrounding soul power suddenly increased in strength. The original large ball of medicine liquid was now only the size of a ping-pong ball, but when it shrank to this extent, it fell into a violent resistance again, and refused to enter the last step no matter what.

"Such fierce resistance!" Liu Ling's face turned pale as he concentrated on the medicine cauldron.

This was already the fourth time Liu Ling had refined a fifth-grade elixir. Based on his experience of the previous three times, Liu Ling knew that if there was any mistake at this time, all the previous efforts would be wasted. This was why he had to rest for such a long time after refining all the herbs.

Originally, as he had just been promoted to a fifth-grade alchemist, he had little chance of success in refining the Dragon Power Pill, which was one of the better fifth-grade elixirs. However, after refining the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire and practicing the powerful skills taught by Gu He, and with his breakthrough in realm, his confidence soared and he wanted to break through his limits again.

At this moment, the change in Liu Ling's face was also seen by the crowd in the square. Moreover, they also saw the shaking of the medicine cauldron before. At that moment, everyone's heart was in their throats and they didn't blink.

Sensing the movement coming from Liu Ling's medicine cauldron, Fa Ma was 100% sure that the pill Liu Ling was refining was a fifth-grade pill, because a fourth-grade pill would never produce such a huge energy ripple.

"Liu Ling, Liu Ling, you must succeed!"

Fa Ma prayed in his heart. At this moment, Xiao Yan's pill had been finalized, and it was absolutely impossible to surpass Xiao Yixian's fourth-grade pill with color and fragrance. All of Fa Ma's hopes were placed on Liu Ling.

"Big Brother, you will succeed!"

At the edge of the square, Xiao Yixian, who was warming the pill, also noticed the abnormality on Liu Ling's side, with some worry in her eyes.

"Look at this guy, it seems that he is under some pressure!" Xiao Yan murmured in his heart. This was the first time he saw Liu Ling so difficult since he saw him refining pills. If it weren't for the competition at this moment, he might have prayed for Liu Ling to succeed.

…

"I want to be a sixth-grade alchemist, how can I lose to a fifth-grade pill!"

As the power of the soul stalemates with the power contained in the medicine liquid, a thought flashes through Liu Ling's mind, and then he takes a deep breath of the hot air around him, his face flushed instantly, and his right hand facing the medicine cauldron gradually opens, then trembles and slowly closes again, and a low shout comes from his throat: "Condense for me!"

After the shout, Liu Ling's palm suddenly clenched tightly, and as his hand closed, the medicine liquid in the medicine 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 has disappeared, replaced by a thumb-sized light red pill prototype.

The pill was formed, and the most difficult step had been passed. Cold sweat dripped down Liu Ling's forehead. He took a few quick breaths of air. The suppressed green flame began to slowly release the scorching temperature to bake the irregular pill prototype.

"Great, the pill prototype has been refined!"

Seeing this scene, more than 90% of the people on the field couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Refining the pill prototype means that the refining is half successful.

Looking at the rough pill wrapped in the green flame in the medicine cauldron, Liu Ling relaxed for a moment and then became very alert again.

Although this pill is rough, it already has some basic effects of the fifth-grade pill "Dragon Power Pill". From the value point of view, perhaps the winner of this game is already known.

"Just keep steady, and the championship is yours!"

On the high platform, Fa Ma prayed in his heart. He was also a fifth-grade alchemist. He knew that even if the fifth-grade pill was refined into a prototype, the subsequent process was full of dangers. If he was not careful, he might destroy the refined prototype.

At this time, in the Red Snake Cauldron, wrapped in the green flame, the dark red pill began to spin, and as its rotation intensified, the hot temperature in the green flame was gathering into a twisted invisible tiny thread, which was continuously infused.

"Dang!"

During the rotation, a circle of dark red energy ripples suddenly surged out of the dark red pill, and finally hit the inner wall of the medicine cauldron heavily, making a crisp and loud sound.

Aware of the changes in the dark red pill, Liu Ling's face gradually became solemn. He knew that this was the energy chaos caused by the formation of the fifth-grade pill. He had encountered this situation three times, but this time the energy riot was the most violent.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

In the medicine cauldron, the dark red pill prototype continued to burst out. The energy ripples collided with the medicine cauldron. If the Red Snake Cauldron was not strong enough, it would have exploded under these impacts.

Observing Liu Ling's control of the flame, Xiao Yan and the little princess who were close to her were so nervous that they forgot to breathe.

"Fortunately, my strength has broken through to Dou Wang, otherwise, I really can't suppress these energy impacts!"

Looking at the originally rough dark red pill in the medicine cauldron gradually becoming smooth and round, Liu Ling's nervous mood finally eased.

"Bang!"

Under the gaze of countless eyes, at a certain moment, Liu Ling suddenly raised his hand and slapped the lid of the cauldron. Suddenly, the lid flew up, accompanied by a strong pill fragrance unique to the fifth-grade pill, and a bright red pill flew out of the medicine cauldron.

Liu Ling quickly picked up the jade bottle prepared in advance and put the flying fifth-grade pill into the jade bottle.

"Success!"

"Gu He really found a treasure. Liu Ling's potential will surely make him an epic genius in the future, leaving the Jiama Empire and heading to the Northwest Continent, and even the Central Continent..."
