Primordial Cultivator-Chapter 243 - Pill Clouds

Elder Jing held a gawking expression at Yang Wei's alchemy skills.

She was mesmerized by his flawless movement.

Her heart started beating faster as she felt Yang Wei turned more handsome and cooler by the minutes.

"Is this what it means to have your heart conquered?" Elder Jing muttered in a low tone as she stared lovingly at Yang Wei.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei was concentrating so much on his pill refinement that he didn't notice Elder Jing had come back.

'The impurities are extracted so easily.' Yang Wei exclaimed inwardly in joy as he kept adding more herbs onto the cauldron.

One herb… Two herbs… Four herbs… Eight herbs…

The pace that Yang Wei had continued to increase and before he knew it, Yang Wei was throwing the final herbs onto the cauldron.

The alchemy flame from his extracted the impurities rapidly, almost like a knife cutting through butter.

There were no obstacles stopping his refining process and soon, Yang Wei began merging the pure essence together.

"This is the smoothest refining from Yang Wei…" Elder Jing muttered in a low voice at the sideline.

Her face flushed red from the magnificent work done by Yang Wei. In fact, she even doubted that Yang Wei might be the reincarnation of an alchemy god.

Time slowly passed and the pill inside the cauldron started forming.

PANG!

Suddenly, a loud thunder echoed from outside and Elder Jing was dumbfounded by such occurrence.

She quickly stood up and glanced outside the window with a gawking expression.

"T-The cloud is turning into a thunderstorm…" Elder Jing mumbled softly as she turned around and stared at the cauldron.

She knew exactly what the thunderstorm meant and why the cauldron began trembling rapidly.

"A p-pill cloud is about to be formed." Elder Jing commented as she witnessed Yang Wei had his eyes closed.

Meanwhile, the sect became alerted when they heard the thunderous storm that resounded everywhere.

Everyone seemed to have dropped their task as they glanced at the sky above them.

When they detected the source seemed to be coming from Elder Jing's courtyard, all the elders quickly rushed toward there and made sure to protect the surroundings.

BANG!

The pure and white clouds had turned dark and frightening. As each minute passed by, the cloud seemed to be roaring with thunder.

"What's happening?" One of the elders asked in a dumbfounded tone as they waited outside of Elder Jing's courtyard.

"Can't you tell by this scene already?" Elder Shan snickered as she pointed at the dark cloud. "It's a phenomenon that occurs when a pill reaches an unfound limit- one that surpasses the norms."

"D-Do you mean a pill cloud is about to form?"

"Heavens… Elder Jing's skills are unparalleled."

As the elders made sure all the disciples were gone, they started to make multiple formations just in case the forming of pill clouds failed.

Meanwhile, back inside the courtyard, Elder Jing's gaze turned solemn as she clenched her fist tightly.

She was worried about Yang Wei and there was nothing she could do to help him.

A pill cloud occurred when the alchemist refined a pill that surpassed the limits and only they were allowed to resist the destruction of their pill.

Pill clouds are pills that defy heaven and heaven would do its best to prevent such a pill from appearing in the cultivation world.

However, as long as the alchemists were able to resist the heaven's will then their achievement in the cultivation world would be endless.

"Yang Wei, this is all on you…" Elder Jing prayed for his safety because she cannot intervene in the process nor try to help him out. freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺

After all, she would be increasing his difficulty if she tried to assist him in any way.

Yang Wei slowly opened his eyes and his expression seemed to be in tranquil, unaffected by the current phenomenon occurring.

Yang Wei opened the lid of the cauldron and instantly, the dark cloud looming atop of Elder Jing's courtyard became more agitated.

"It has begun…" Elder Jing mumbled softly as she wondered if her courtyard would survive after this event.

"What a blunder… I should have made Yang Wei refine the pill outside." She added.

Meanwhile, the thunder began striking down, almost like the heaven's wrath had descended.

BANG!

The thunder struck down at a vertical angle, destroying the rooftop of Elder Jing's courtyard.

The thunder ignored the concrete as it continued to strike at the pill that Yang Wei was refining.

One strike… Two strikes… Three strikes…

The thunder continued to strike the pill and seemingly want to destroy it into specks of dust.

However, Yang Wei remained calm and collected as he controlled his alchemy flame to protect the pill from turning into dust.

Sometime later, the dark cloud started multiplying itself and Yang Wei narrowed his gaze as the real hurdle had begun.

Retrieving his Lightsbane out, Yang Wei clutched onto his spear as he glared at the dark clouds.

"Come at me!" Yang Wei sneered at the lightning clouds as he provoked it to divert its attention.

The Lightning clouds took the bait as it changed its target at Yang Wei.

Multiple claps of thunder rained upon Elder Jing's courtyard, creating a windstorm and destroying everything in its path.

Elder Jing held a bitter smile at her fine courtyard being turned into dust because of the pill clouds.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei smirked as he raised his Lightsbane upward, pointing at the dark clouds as he injected his soul force in it.

At the same time, the inscription inlay in the Lightsbane started blinking brightly and flames started coating the spear. f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦

A stalemate was made as Yang Wei waited for the thunder to descend upon him while the dark clouds seemed to be cautious of Yang Wei.

However, in the next moments, multiple claps of thunder struck down at Yang Wei and Yang Wei narrowed his gaze as he moved at the same time.

The burst of flames and thunder collided midair, creating countless destruction surrounding Elder Jing's courtyard.
