"Skyfire Three Mysterious Change!"
As the words fell, Xiao Yan's aura surged violently. With a heavy stomp on the stone platform beneath his feet, he shot straight toward the three-colored Pill Lightning roaring in the sky above!
"Boom!"
But just as he fought against the Pill Lightning with all his might, a colossal pillar of emerald light dozens of zhang tall and piercing through the heavens like a divine beam — suddenly erupted, carrying with it an immense and majestic wave of energy that shot toward the sky.
"Lin Feng has succeeded in refining his pill!"
The moment the audience saw that towering pillar of green light, their attention instantly shifted away from Xiao Yan to its source. Then, a deafening roar of astonishment exploded throughout the square.
Lin Feng's name was already well-known within the Pill Region. Having gone through countless events, his reputation in the Holy Pill City was far from ordinary. Thus, when the spectators exchanged quick words of confirmation, they immediately realized who it was — Lin Feng!
Almost at once, the pillar of light in the sky scattered, and the surrounding clouds, as if drawn by an invisible force, rapidly converged toward Lin Feng's stone platform.
In the blink of an eye, they gathered into a thick mass of cloud hundreds of meters wide. Under the stunned gazes of the spectators, colors began to emerge one after another — green, silver, red, gold, and purple.
"Five... Five-colored Pill Lightning!"
The dazzling sight of the multicolored thundercloud overhead sent a tidal wave of gasps and shouts through the vast square, shaking the heavens.
"No, wait! It's not five colors — it's six!"
Before the crowd could calm down from their excitement, a Dou Zun expert with sharp spiritual perception suddenly shouted in disbelief. At this point, even those with strong mental fortitude began to lose composure.
A Six-Colored Pill Lightning — that meant a pill of the highest grade! Even for those who had stepped into the Nine-Change to Saint Stage, such a pill would be a priceless treasure. Now, they were witnessing its birth with their own eyes!
Following that shout, countless heads tilted upward once again. Sure enough, beneath the purple hue, another new color began to appear.
"Lin Feng! Lin Feng! Lin Feng!"
Once that new color was confirmed, the entire crowd erupted into chants of his name.
A Six-Colored Pill Lightning — among all contestants of this Pill Gathering, there was only one person capable of achieving such a feat.
The champion was already beyond question.
"No, that's wrong! Lin Feng's pill isn't six-colored — it's... its seven-colored!"
Just as countless spectators were still caught up in their frenzy, a trembling, stammering voice shouted from somewhere within the crowd — its tone filled with shock.
In the next instant, the previously thunderous cheers came to an abrupt halt. Everyone froze eyes wide — and turned their gazes toward the heavens once more. Sure enough, beneath the sixth color, a seventh hue emerged!
In that moment, the enormous square fell into complete silence. Everyone stared upward, their necks craned, eyes locked on that dazzling seven-colored thundercloud. No one knew what words could possibly describe the feeling that surged through their hearts.
Who could have imagined that a young man not yet thirty years old... could actually refine an seven-colored eighth-tier pill!
"Rumble..."
But before the crowd could even find the words to express their emotions, the seven-colored clouds above began to churn once more under countless disbelieving stares. In the blink of an eye, an eighth color appeared within the thunderclouds!
"Rumble..."
As the eighth color reached its peak brilliance, a ninth faint hue seemed to shyly peek out from behind it, flickering briefly in the heavens — yet as if embarrassed by the countless eyes below, it quickly faded back into the clouds. So, the thundercloud finally stabilized — with eight colors!
"Good heavens... E-e-eight... Eight-Colored Pill Lightning!"
A spectator in the stands stammered with all his strength, barely managing to shout out the words.
"Boom!"
Before the voice of the previous speaker had even faded, the once-silent square erupted completely.
Countless faces flushed with excitement, and the deafening roar of cheers thundered through the heavens and earth. The entire Holy Pill City trembled slightly beneath the overwhelming soundwave.
Even the clouds in the sky were shattered into wisps and fragments under such terrifying sonic pressure!
An eight-colored eighth-tier pill!
Such a miraculous existence—something that had only ever appeared in legends—was now forming step by step before their very eyes.
How could anyone not feel shaken and thrilled by it? Everyone knew it now—this year's Pill Gathering had already been decided!
All across heaven and earth, countless burning gazes were locked onto the slim figure standing atop the stone platform in the sky.
The intensity of those looks had reached the point of fanaticism. Who could have imagined that this young man, who looked to be barely in his twenties, could reach such astonishing heights!
After today, the name Lin Feng would echo throughout the entire Central Plains!
In the distance, Cao Ying's beautiful eyes shimmered with a faint, complex light as she stared at that calm, composed figure under the gaze of thousands. Her fair jade-like hand unconsciously brushed against the soft lips that Lin Feng had once stolen a kiss from.
That expression—anyone could tell. The proud enchantress of the Cao Clan had begun to feel something in her heart. Indeed, no one could deny it—at this very moment, Lin Feng possessed a charm that no one could match!
When the eighth color finally took shape within the thundercloud, Lin Feng exhaled softly. The nerves that had been taut for so long finally relaxed. Instantly, a wave of dizziness surged through his mind.
He quickly shook his head, forcing himself to stay alert, then pulled a pill from his ring and swallowed it. Rising to his feet, he stood atop the stone platform and gazed down upon the vast ocean of people stretching as far as the eye could see.
His work wasn't done yet.
"Damn it! Lin Feng wasn't even that much stronger than me before! How the hell can he suddenly refine a pill of this level?!"
Far off in the crowd, Xiao Yan's expression cracked as he stared at the thunderclouds churning above.
Even if he exhausted all his methods, the best he could produce was a three-colored eighth-tier pill. Yet his lifelong rival—who hadn't been much stronger than him not long ago—had suddenly surpassed him completely, refining an eight-colored eighth-tier pill!
Anyone witnessing this would struggle to stay calm. If Xiao Yan's mentality had been any weaker, he might have gone mad on the spot!
"Eight-colored... Bodhisattva Pill..."
Even the senior members of the Pill Tower atop the high platform were filled with disbelief. It was difficult for them to imagine—this top-tier pill, one that most of them couldn't refine even with all their skill—had today been successfully refined... by a youth barely over twenty years old.
