Urban Dominating Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1087 1080: Facing the Pill Thunder (Fourth Update)

"Miss Linglong, Master Yan, then it's settled. Three days later, our two families will jointly host this auction!"

Celestial Cyan Marquis's refined gaze shifted to the two individuals seated at a lower rank, a smile gracing his face as he spoke.

"Alright, Marquis."

Master Yan nodded and said.

Linglong's beautiful eyes sparkled as she nodded slightly.

In Celestial Cyan City, Celestial Permanence Commerce Association holds a large auction once every three months, and this time, the auction was rescheduled entirely at the request of the Marquis's Mansion.

A few days ago, the lord of Wind Ridge Town died within the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range, reportedly dying alongside the Wind Thunder Wolf King. This time, the main event of the auction is the sale of the lordship of Wind Ridge Town!

In fact, in the past, when a lord died, they always auctioned off the lordship position. As for the lord's death, the Marquis's Mansion generally wasn't particularly concerned, merely sending someone to investigate the cause.

When a lord dies, the position becomes vacant. This vacant position can be auctioned for a substantial amount of Spirit Stones, a revenue that exceeds the annual profit of the three major families of Celestial Cyan City.

Therefore, the death of a lord does not harm the Marquis's Mansion, but instead, it brings more revenue to them. The Marquis's Mansion will investigate the cause of the lord's death, but they will never avenge the lord. A cultivator capable of killing a lord is no weakling, and seeking revenge would be a thankless endeavor for the Marquis's Mansion.

"Marquis, is the auction venue set at the Marquis's Mansion?"

Master Yan queried.

"Hm, that works well."

Celestial Cyan Marquis smiled, nodding in agreement.

As discussions on the auction concluded, the rumbling thunder echoed through the Marquis's Mansion.

"Hm? What's happening?"

Celestial Cyan Marquis raised his eyebrows.

Celestial Cyan Marquis, Master Yan, Linglong, and others flashed from the hall, hovering in mid-air above the Marquis's Mansion.

"Is that a thundercloud?"

Celestial Cyan Marquis's refined gaze focused, staring at the roaming silver snake-like thundercloud beneath the clear night sky.

Simultaneously, beside Celestial Cyan Marquis, Master Yan and Linglong's gazes consolidated.

"That's where Bai Mansion is located, why would thunderclouds gather over Bai Mansion?"

Celestial Cyan Marquis's eyes flashed with astonishment.

"That thundercloud, that thundercloud... it looks somewhat like, like... Pill Thunder!"

At this moment, Master Yan stared intently at the dense thundercloud, seeming suddenly to have realized something, his eyes bursting with a glint.

Upon hearing this, Celestial Cyan Marquis and Linglong both shivered.

Celestial Cyan Marquis's refined eyes also fixedly stared at the thundercloud, moments later bursting with brilliance.

"It's not just similar, it should be!"

Celestial Cyan Marquis suddenly spoke in a deep voice.

"Hm?"

Master Yan hesitated for a moment, as a high-level Third Grade Alchemist, he had never seen genuine Pill Thunder. After all, Alchemists capable of triggering Pill Thunder were extremely rare in the Great Xia Dynasty.

"Lord Marquis, you've seen Pill Thunder?"

Seeing Celestial Cyan Marquis speak with certainty, Master Yan asked.

"A hundred years ago, when I was young, I witnessed Pill Thunder once within the Royal Palace. It was similar to this thundercloud, both in height and the thunder pressure it emitted were comparable."

Celestial Cyan Marquis stared at the dense thundercloud, his eyes flickering unpredictably.

In that moment, he felt a bit incredulous. In his Celestial Cyan City, Pill Thunder appearing was truly astonishing!

"Come on, let's go take a look."

With those words, Celestial Cyan Marquis's figure flashed towards Bai Mansion's location.

Linglong and Master Yan exchanged a glance, then followed suit.

Apart from the attention of the Yuan Family and the Marquis's Mansion, the Tao Family, one of the other three major families in Celestial Cyan City, along with other various families, were also focused on the situation above Bai Mansion.

While the Pill Thunder drew attention from all directions in Celestial Cyan City.

At this moment.

Bai Mansion, inside the Pill Room.

After Qin Yang's eyes lost the shock caused by the sudden appearance of Pill Thunder, a faint helpless smile appeared on his face.

With his current cultivation at the Peak of Immortal Spirit Realm, refining a Fourth Grade Venerable-Breaking Pill wasn't easy—he consumed great amounts of Spiritual Power, Heart Power, and Divine Sense.

If someone were present, they would undoubtedly notice the slight pallor on Qin Yang's face.

Buzz~!!!

As Qin Yang showed a trace of helplessness, the purple gleaming Purple Jade Pill Furnace in the Pill Room vibrated more intensely.

Bang!

A muffled sound echoed as the furnace lid of the Purple Jade Pill Furnace flew open.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

From within the furnace, pills suffused with thunder light shot out, forming a circular shape as they floated above the stone chamber.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!

On each of the purple pills, thunder light flickered, and a powerful Pill Power spread forth, emitting a kind of invisible force.

"The Venerable-Breaking Pill has emerged."

Qin Yang's facial expression changed slightly.

However, this was not the time to collect the Venerable-Breaking Pill. Right out of the furnace, the pill's potent power is not easily contained and cannot be stored in a Storage Bag.

Boom!!!

As the Venerable-Breaking Pills emerged from the furnace, the thunderclouds above Bai Mansion rolled violently, thunder light intensified, and thunder pressure augmented, shrouding the entire Alchemy Hall in its presence.

Boom!!!

Thunder clouds churned violently, and next moment, a lightning bolt as thick as a human leg erupted from the thunderclouds, hurtling towards the floating Venerable-Breaking Pills in the stone chamber.

Evidently, the lightning bolt aimed to destroy the power-releasing Venerable-Breaking Pills.

"There's no other way, must confront the Pill Thunder!"

Upon seeing this, Qin Yang's eyes narrowed, speaking in a sombre voice.

"Star Body, activate!"

Qin Yang shouted fiercely.

Buzz~!

Within Qin Yang's body, the Nine Revolutions Star Technique operated fiercely, a layer of brilliant starlight burst forth from all around him.

Bang crash!

The blinding lightning snake exploded with astonishing thunder power, first striking the transparent jade top of the Pill Room; the jade top shattered, creating a large hole.

The silver lightning snake passed unimpeded, then charged towards the circle of Venerable-Breaking Pills in the Pill Room's airspace, evidently intent on annihilating those pills.

Swish!

Just then, Qin Yang's form, enveloped in starlight, flashed, appearing above the Venerable-Breaking Pills.

"Star Fist!"

Qin Yang shouted out angrily, his right hand exploding with brilliant starlight, and a massive Star Fist Aura hurled towards the thick silver snake.

Bang crash!

Next moment, on the thunder light silver snake, thunder power flooded, colliding with the Star Fist Aura.

Upon impact, the Star Fist Aura shattered into starry points, dissipating, while much of the lightning snake's brilliance faded away.

Yet, the remaining thunder pressure still fell upon Qin Yang.
