BTTH Adding Points To Become Stronger

Inside the cauldron, a pill with a round shape and a mix of red and blue constantly quivered, shedding a large amount of medicinal fragrance with each shake.

At the same time, the cauldron lid vibrated continuously as if something was repeatedly crashing against it, and something inside the cauldron was about to burst out.

"A Seventh Grade Pill already possesses spiritual awareness, understanding how to seek benefits and avoid harm. But even under the intense heat inside the cauldron, it's still so fierce. This is no ordinary Seventh Grade pill."

Xin Lan said in shock, her voice trembling.

Coming from the Pill Tower Elder's family, despite her young age, she had seen quite a lot.

It was very rare for a Seventh Grade Pill to resist so strongly.

"Could it be that Brother Lin is already an Eighth Grade Alchemist at such a young age?"

Tang Zhen was taken aback. Being able to effortlessly refine a Seventh Grade Pill and with such good results indicated that Lin Xiu's alchemical skills were certainly above Seventh Grade, which allowed him to handle it so easily.

If he truly had Eighth Grade skills, then he must not be offended.

A gifted Alchemist has a much brighter future than a Dou Qi practitioner.

Hearing Lin Xiu's call, Tang Zhen quickly responded, "Thank you for your hard work, Brother Lin. Leave the Pill Lightning to me."

With that, Tang Zhen flashed and appeared above Lin Xiu.

Boom!

Thunder roared as a bolt of lightning descended, which Tang Zhen struck and shattered.

The better the pill quality and the higher the grade, the more Pill Lightning it attracted.

After fending off the lightning for a while, Tang Zhen finally waited for the sunlight to pierce through the clouds.

Bang!

At this point, the pill was fully formed. The cauldron lid flew off as a glowing pill shot out and flew away into the distance.

Lin Xiu didn't need to intervene; if the pill had escaped, then even Tang Zhen, a Dou Venerate, would be quite disappointing.

"Hmph, come back to me."

Looking at the pill, Tang Zhen's five fingers grasped towards that direction. The space in front of him fluctuated, suddenly solidifying and becoming incredibly hard.

The pill bounced back after hitting the barrier and was pulled into Tang Zhen's hand by a force.

The Fire Bodhisattva Pill was perfectly round, as if naturally formed. Under its red and blue hues, it was covered in fine patterns that seemed alive, flickering unpredictably.

"Perfect! Simply perfect!"

Tang Zhen couldn't help but burst into loud laughter, the commotion so great that it could be heard throughout the Burning Flame Valley.

Even after being placed in a jade vial, the Fire Bodhisattva Pill continued to vibrate.

"Is his alchemy level really that high?"

Tang Huo'er hadn't seen her father so excited in a long time, especially since he had been wearing a worried expression daily since her injury.

For this pill, my father arranged several events to invite alchemists and brought many of them in, but most couldn't even pass the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame trial.

"Brother Lin, I am truly impressed by your alchemical skills."

Approaching Lin Xiu, Tang Zhen clasped his hands together and bowed to him with great seriousness.

Although the onlookers were surprised by this scene, they did not show much reaction.

Tang Zhen was indeed the master of Burning Flame Valley, holding a distinguished position.

However, an alchemist who could refine a Seventh Grade Pill at such a young age had immense potential for the future.

If one could befriend such a formidable alchemist, Burning Flame Valley might benefit greatly in the future.

"I didn't expect Elder Lin to be so hidden and skilled in alchemy. If I had known, there would have been no need to look for Xiao Yan. I should have just asked Elder Lin for help directly."

Xin Lan clenched her fists, her excited gaze fixed on the young man standing beside the cauldron.

She was immensely relieved that coming to Burning Flame Valley had been such a correct decision.

After the pill was refined, Lin Xiu didn't immediately request the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame. After refining pills for so many days in a row, even with several Yuan apertures to support him, he was somewhat fatigued at the moment.

Declining Tang Zhen's offer of thanks, Lin Xiu asked for a quiet room to rest in for two days, finally alleviating his earlier exhaustion.

"To refine the body using the methods from the Flame Mantra, three items are needed: one Seventh Grade Pill called the Life Bone Merge Blood Pill, a portion of Seventh Rank Magic Beast's blood, and a bone from at least a Dou Ancestor."

Recalling the contents in his mind, Lin Xiu found that these requirements were not an issue.

The materials for the Life Bone Merge Blood Pill had long been collected, and he had plenty of Seventh Rank Magic Beast blood.

As for the bone, he had brought along Venerable Tian Huo's bone when he left the underground as per the request, which now happened to be quite useful.

"First, refine the pill, then borrow the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame to refine Venerable Tian Huo's body."

After a moment of thought, Lin Xiu had a clear plan for his next steps.

Helping Venerable Tian Huo refine his physical body was just the first step. Once Venerable Tian Huo's strength was restored, Lin Xiu would have the qualifications to negotiate terms with Tang Zhen, since he would then have a powerful Dou Venerate by his side.

Moreover, he still needed to help Yao Chen refine his body to borrow the Chilling Bone Flame. Thus, he definitely couldn't return the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame while still in Burning Flame Valley.

With this in mind, Lin Xiu took out the Ten Thousand Beast Cauldron again and prepared the materials.

Before starting, he used Attribute Points to perfect the Life Bone Merge Blood Pill.

With everything ready, Lin Xiu began the refinement.

The high temperature of the flames was so intense that the house couldn't contain it, and it started to seep outside.

The people in Burning Flame Valley immediately understood that Lin Xiu was refining another pill.

Tang Zhen strictly ordered that no one should approach or disturb Lin Xiu during this time.

Although they could only observe from a distance, their curiosity remained unshaken, eager to know what grade of pill Lin Xiu was refining.

As time passed, when dark clouds once again gathered over Burning Flame Valley and thunder roared, everyone realized that this was at least another Seventh Grade pill.

"He's definitely more than just a Seventh Grade Alchemist."

Looking at the thunderclouds, Tang Zhen's tone was firm, fully convinced of his own guess.

"Father, are we really going to lend him the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame?"

Tang Huo'er asked him.

"Lend it, and not just lend it. If he encounters any tricky problems, we must help him."

Tang Zhen said with great seriousness, "An Eighth Grade Alchemist so young is not someone we can afford to offend. With his talent, given time, he might even become a Ninth Grade alchemist. Do you understand the implications of this?"

Tang Huo'er nodded.

The higher the grade of an alchemist, the better the pills they refine, which not only have superior effects but can even possess terrifying power. Thus, powerful alchemists are always targets for major factions seeking to win them over.

The thunderclouds in the sky reached their limit and began to continuously strike down.

This time, Tang Zhen took the initiative, shattering the bolts of lightning one after another.

Lin Xiu, who had initially risen, sat back down upon seeing this. He wasn't interested in the lightning, mainly because he didn't need the Pill Lightning for any refining.

Once the thunderclouds dissipated, Lin Xiu grasped the pill in his hand and then put it into a vial.

"Brother Lin."

Seeing Lin Xiu walk out of the room, Tang Zhen immediately went up to him, greeting him warmly.

"Master Tang, about the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame..."

Before Lin Xiu could finish his sentence, Tang Zhen raised his hand to interrupt him.

He waved his hand and said, "Lend it! I've been curious about how Brother Lin plans to deal with the mark issue in the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame."

"Uh... Thank you, Master Tang. Please rest assured, I will definitely return the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame."

Lin Xiu was taken aback by Tang Zhen's enthusiasm and responded after a moment.

After another two days of adjustment, Lin Xiu returned to peak condition and went to find Tang Zhen.

As promised, Tang Zhen had not gone back on his word.

He took out the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame from within his body and placed it in front of Lin Xiu.
