Chapter 802: Divine Pill

Pushing open the main hall's door, what came into view was a majestic statue—a middle-aged man with an awe-inspiring divine aura, as if alive, extremely formidable.

This statue was enshrined here, clearly a leader of the demon race, perhaps some ancestor of theirs.

Glancing at the demon statue, Yang Tian snorted coldly, wanting to destroy it outright, but then he gave up the idea; if he caused any commotion, he would be in deep trouble.

Stepping further inside, the palace was interconnected in all directions. Yang Tian also saw many artifacts, but they were merely decorative items, of no use.

The Cauldron of Mending Heaven suddenly appeared, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes. He said, "Eat, finish them off..."

Whoosh! The great cauldron trembled, and from its mouth burst forth brilliant multicolored divine rainbows, one after another sweeping toward the artifacts in the hall. In the blink of an eye, everything was looted clean.

He paid no heed to the outer areas; the real treasures should be inside here.

This was a rather concealed corridor, with doors to the alchemy chamber, treasure chamber, cultivation chamber, scripture chamber, and so on.

Seeing these doors, a hint of joy flashed in Yang Tian's eyes. He couldn't help but clench his fists, but just as he was about to push the door open, he stopped in his tracks.

"So there's a formation laid here." Sensing a barely perceptible formation, Yang Tian murmured, "It seems this is where she cultivates; otherwise, why set up such a powerful formation?"

Little White, who was practicing the Nine Revolutions Demon-God Step, was dragged out by him. Upon seeing the formation ahead, Little White's big eyes narrowed, and he opened his mouth to spew a mouthful of milky white mist into it.

Sizzle! The formation in front instantly twisted, and the formation patterns in the void began to manifest, radiating immense power.

"Ah." Little White was full of surprise, then wiped his nose and spat out mouthfuls of milky white mist, charging toward the formation.

"This formation is indeed powerful; it should be some kind of deadly killing formation." Seeing the entire hall interwoven with these formation patterns, Yang Tian nodded.

Little White's current cultivation was not what it used to be; he could break through some formations with just a few moves, but this formation took a full quarter of an hour to crack open a gap.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Little White grinned and said, "There must be high-grade pills in this alchemy chamber."

Yang Tian nodded in agreement. A peak Sea of Rebirth powerhouse was a top-tier figure in the world, naturally incomparable to the Imperial realm.

"That demoness is an eighth-rank alchemist." A hint of joy couldn't help but flash in Yang Tian's eyes; eighth-rank divine pills were also extremely rare.

"Let's go... go..." Little White hummed as he walked inside, and their figures disappeared into the hall.

The entire alchemy chamber, about two hundred zhang in size, revealed a purple alchemy furnace, its body interwoven with patterns, exuding a faint majesty and ancient fluctuations.

Yang Tian's eyes instantly fell on this purple alchemy furnace. When he saw the characters on it, he murmured, "Purple Cloud Alchemy Furnace, this furnace is no ordinary thing."

The alchemy furnace radiated divine charm all over, shimmering with purple light, very splendid.

Yang Xiao's figure suddenly appeared. His eyes looked at the furnace, a hint of joy surfacing, and he said, "It's actually the Purple Cloud Alchemy Furnace, hahaha."

"Uncle Xiao, is this furnace very famous?" Seeing Yang Xiao's delight, Yang Tian couldn't help asking.

"Of course. The Purple Cloud Alchemy Furnace was very famous in ancient times. It was once in the hands of a renowned alchemy king on a continent, and I saw it once." Yang Xiao said with a smile.

He still remembered that person vividly—a late bloomer who later soared to prominence. During the Demon-Sealing War, though his physical body was destroyed, he fought to the point of madness because all his close ones were captured by the demon race. He was a man of deep emotion, very similar to Yang Tian. Later, that person disappeared!

A hint of joy also surfaced in Yang Tian's eyes; it seemed this alchemy furnace was a cherished treasure of the demoness.

At this moment, a cold expression appeared on Yang Xiao's face. His entire body radiated terrifying soul fluctuations, which then surged toward the Purple Cloud Alchemy Furnace.

Waves of divine soul fluctuations burst out layer upon layer, pressing down overwhelmingly on the Purple Cloud Cauldron. At that moment, a powerful divine soul fluctuation awakened from within.

"Seal!" Yang Xiao snorted coldly. He was at the intermediate Manifest Saint level, with a very high level of divine soul fabrication, certainly not inferior to the demon woman, let alone her clone.

The overwhelming divine soul power directly formed a huge prison, suppressing the divine soul fluctuation that was about to awaken within. Then Yang Xiao's hand shook slightly, and the Purple Cloud Cauldron vanished instantly.

"I won't destroy this wisp of divine soul for now. If I kill it now, that female demon will surely detect that the Purple Cloud Cauldron has been taken." Yang Xiao smiled, his gaze sweeping around.

Inside were all jade shelves, filled with jade bottles. The medicinal fragrance in the alchemy chamber was very rich.

Xiao Bai picked up a jade bottle. When he opened it, a wisp of medicinal fragrance wafted out. His big eyes narrowed, and he directly poured the pills into his mouth.

"Wow, most are fifth-grade pills, and there are quite a few sixth-grade ones too." After scanning a few times, Yang Tian couldn't help saying, "There must be several thousand here!"

"This is probably the accumulation of half a lifetime for the female demon." Yang Xiao nodded slightly, his face full of joy. "When you step into the Cavern Heaven realm, these pills will come in handy!"

The Cavern Heaven realm involves opening a space within the body, where one can absorb vast amounts of energy, but storing it requires no small amount of resources.

Even with the Heaven and Earth Embryonic Membrane obtained by Yang Tian, it might not be enough!

"Collect... collect..." Xiao Bai was overjoyed, flicking his small sleeve, and one by one, the jade bottles drifted into the Ancestral Dragon Ring.

Seeing the shelves empty in no time, Yang Tian laughed heartily. When the female demon saw that the pills she had painstakingly refined over half a lifetime were gone, her expression would surely be very interesting.

At this moment, their gazes fell ahead. There was a sealed jade shelf with only eight jade bottles, which looked very extraordinary.

"They must be seventh-grade pills!" Xiao Bai ground his small teeth and, with a huff, shot a stream of milky white mist toward the energy barrier.

Chi chi! The light shield instantly twisted and was broken open by Xiaobai within a few breaths, and an extremely rich medicinal fragrance surged out in an instant.

Opening a jade bottle, another powerful surge of cold air rushed out, nearly freezing the void.

"This is the Ice Soul Treasure Pill." Seeing the pill inside, Yang Xiao said directly, "This pill is quite special and has no effect on ordinary people."

Yang Tian also nodded. This kind of pill was likely tailored for special constitutions. He opened several more jade bottles, all containing seventh-tier pills.

When he opened the eighth one, a terrifying aura suddenly surged forth, shocking their minds.

With a hum, a demonic sound suddenly rang out. Under their astonished gazes, a pitch-black pill whistled as if trying to escape into the sky.

"Haha, the Mad Demon Divine Pill!" Yang Tian laughed heartily, his large hand grabbing through the air and snatching the Mad Demon Divine Pill down.

This was clearly a pill refined by the female demon during the alchemy competition. It was an eighth-tier pill, extremely fearsome, as it could instantly grant a person immense and unmatched power.

"So it's this pill. Although it's good, try not to use it." Hearing this, Yang Xiao said, "Once taken, although it can enhance strength, it consumes a tremendous amount of life force."

Yang Tian also nodded. This divine pill consumed life force, but it was also a good item for saving one's life in a pinch.

He happily put it away. Refining this eighth-tier divine pill required a terrifying amount of precious herbs.

"This last one must definitely be an eighth-tier divine pill!" At this moment, Xiaobai grinned, showing his teeth.

Yang Tian nodded in full agreement. His hand rested on the jade bottle, but before he could open it, a terrifying aura suddenly burst forth.

Crack! The jade bottle suddenly split open, and a dazzling blood light bloomed, like a divine sun emerging into the world.

This was an extremely terrifying wave of blood energy, pressing down overwhelmingly, seizing the soul.
