As for the Three Leaders, although they had already anticipated the outcome the moment Lin Feng succeeded in his fusion, when they actually saw the Pill Lightning forming in the sky, their faces still turned as dark as water.
Lin Feng had just refined an Eight-Colored Pill—only one color short of what they themselves could accomplish. If any conflict were to arise between them in the future, anyone with a normal brain would know which side to stand on.
Especially those old fellows stuck at the peak of Nine-Change Dou Zun, with no hope of breaking through. They would surely side with Lin Feng at once, hoping to obtain a Bodhisattva Pill that could increase their breakthrough chance by twenty percent.
Unless one of the Three Leaders themselves managed to refine a true ninth-grade treasure pill, otherwise, if they wanted Lin Feng gone, they could only rely on whether the Flower Sect could completely eradicate him in one strike—once and for all!
Meanwhile, the older generation powerhouses like Elder Qing Hua were left speechless and stunned as they gazed upon the eight-colored thunderclouds in the sky. After a moment, they could only smile bitterly and shake their heads.
"This really is like the saying—each new wave pushes the one before it, and the old wave ends up dying on the shore."
"However," Qing Hua sighed, "even a Six-Change or Seven-Change Dou Zun wouldn't dare underestimate this Eight-Colored Pill Lightning. And that little fellow is merely a One-Star Dou Zun… I wonder how he plans to endure it."
Thinking of this, Elder Qing Hua couldn't help but sigh softly. In his view, even though Lin Feng had managed to refine the Bodhisattva Pill, he likely wouldn't survive the Pill Lightning that followed.
Of course, he wasn't the only one thinking this way. Among the crowd, many spectators, after recovering from their initial shock, also shook their heads regretfully. They too didn't have much confidence in Lin Feng.
After all, the oppressive aura radiating from that Eight-Colored Pill Lightning alone was enough to make them lose all will to resist. Even ordinary Dou Zun experts would only end up being reduced to ashes under such heavenly might.
"Sigh, looks like that eight-colored eighth-tier pill is doomed," one of the spectators said regretfully, gazing at the massive crimson cauldron before Lin Feng.
"Yeah, with this kind of heavenly might, unless one of the Three Leaders from the Pill Tower intervenes, who else could possibly block it? But the Pill Gathering has clear rules—no one else is allowed to interfere during the competition."
For a while, the entire vast square was filled with sighs of pity and helplessness.
As for Xiao Yan, he was silently cursing in his heart, hoping Lin Feng would fail to withstand the Pill Lightning. After all, enduring the Pill Lightning was considered the final test of the Pill Gathering.
If a contestant failed to protect their pill and it was destroyed by the lightning, it would count as a refinement failure, and their result would not be recorded.
If Lin Feng couldn't withstand the Pill Lightning and his pill was destroyed, his reputation and influence might not suffer much—but he would lose the qualification to enter the Star Region.
Because of his previous clash with Lin Feng, Xiao Yan was deeply worried that once they entered the Western Region to attempt absorbing the Three Thousand Burning Flame, Lin Feng might take the chance to strike at him.
But if Lin Feng lost his chance to enter the Star Region, then not only would Xiao Yan have one less rival, he could also focus solely on dealing with Old Mu Gu. At this moment, Old Mu Gu's mood was absolutely foul.
In his eyes, that Bodhisattva Pill Lin Feng refined was supposed to be his soon. But now, under the Eight-Colored Pill Lightning, that pill was probably about to be reduced to ashes. Just thinking about it made his chest ache.
"Rumble—!"
While everyone was lost in their own thoughts, the sky above suddenly roared with thunder. The rolling thunderclouds churned and spread endlessly across the heavens. It was as if the entire sky had been taken over by that sea of multicolored lightning clouds.
An overwhelming force of thunderous might spread from within, making many people's skin crawl with a chilling sensation. If those bolts of lightning in the sky were to go out of control and strike randomly, who knew how many unfortunate souls would be blasted into dust on the spot?
Under that terrifying heavenly might, Lin Feng remained calm. With a thought, he controlled his storage ring and took out a golden Sky Demon Puppet. This puppet's body was massive, its entire form radiating a bright golden light.
"A Two-Change Dou Zun-level puppet?!"
The moment the puppet appeared, several strong experts in the square gasped instinctively. Clearly, none of them had expected Lin Feng to possess such a powerful puppet.
Lin Feng looked at the puppet, which was crafted from the body of Ye Huaicheng—the Grand Elder of Qing Mu Mansion who had possessed Seven-Star Dou Zun strength while alive.
This Sky Demon Puppet had previously absorbed all the Pill Lightning from the four-colored, five-colored, and six-colored pills he had refined during his earlier experiments to familiarize himself with the soul realm. Now, Lin Feng commanded in a low voice, "Go!"
Boom!
At his command, the golden puppet stomped the ground violently and shot into the sky with explosive force.
Seeing this golden puppet, the crowd's eyes brightened. Previously, when Ye Xin Lan, Cao Ying, and Dan Chen had each taken out similar puppets to withstand their own Pill Lightning, everyone had witnessed it clearly.
They knew these puppets possessed a mystical ability—to absorb Pill Lightning and evolve themselves. Now that Lin Feng had taken out one too, perhaps it really could withstand the lightning.
As the Sky Demon Puppet ascended into the sky, the eight-colored thunderclouds above began to churn more violently than ever. Low, rumbling thunder echoed within the storm, and bolts of lightning as thick as a man's thigh streaked back and forth inside the clouds, flashing in brilliant hues.
Zzzzt!
Suddenly, the clouds contracted sharply, and a massive bolt of eight-colored lightning, several meters thick, erupted from within like a gigantic serpent. It tore through the air, splitting space itself with a deafening crack, and came crashing down straight toward Lin Feng's stone platform!
The instant the Pill Lightning descended, the entire sky above the square lit up with blinding brilliance. The horrifying spectacle made everyone feel as though the end of the world had arrived.
The terrifying heavenly might carried by the Eight-Colored Pill Lightning crushed the entire spectator area. Every cultivator below Dou Zun level was instantly pinned to their seats, completely unable to move—even their eyeballs were frozen in place.
In the sky, the Sky Demon Puppet roared forward. Its body shot upward and slammed head-on into the massive bolt of lightning that was three to four times thicker than itself.
Boom! Boom!
The radiant eight-colored lightning rampaged across the heavens like an enraged dragon. Thunder roared, and dazzling light spread in all directions as waves of lightning poured down endlessly, striking the golden body of the Sky Demon Puppet.
At the moment the lightning slammed into the puppet, the brilliant colors burst outward.
Countless strands of multicolored lightning transformed into tiny serpents that slithered across the metallic surface, burrowing endlessly into the puppet's body, tempering it to become even more terrifying.
From afar, the Sky Demon Puppet now looked just like a thunder god, suspended high in the sky. Within dozens of meters around it, only resplendent, flickering lightning could be seen. The terrifying sight made even the Dou Zun experts watching from below feel their scalps go numb.
Above, thunder continued to roar endlessly.
The rolling eight-colored thunderclouds rumbled like a colossal lightning forge, ceaselessly spitting out more powerful and dazzling bolts of lightning—each one crashing down upon the Sky Demon Puppet's golden body.
