Gu Ruoyun paused before continuing, "However, pill refinement is not as easy as mixing ingredients in a pot whereby putting the herbs in one by one would be enough! His ingredients are clearly not pure enough and had not been cleaned thoroughly. Even if he manages to find the correct order of the ingredients, this pill refinement process cannot possibly be successful. I don't know where he got the courage to demonstrate it in public and embarrass himself instead of experimenting with it on his own first."
Hearing this, the Honorable Sir Tianqi heaved a sigh of relief.
I was really worried that this boy would actually be able to refine a pill. If that happens, the position of the number one elder will go to that old fart for sure.
If Elder Lingshang was to become the number one elder, I don't know what will happen to the Spirit Sect.
Hiss!
The pill cauldron let out a melancholy noise before becoming silent once more.
Kun Nan wiped the sweat from his brow and steadied his rapidly-beating heart.
He was the only one who knows how many time he had gone over the calculations in such a short period of time. While he appeared fully confident in front of everyone, he was actually extremely nervous and deathly afraid that he would embarrass himself in front of so many people! However, he had to show exceptional talent to the eyes of the world. Otherwise, how could he expect to overthrow Gu Shengxiao?
Kun Nan grits his teeth fiercely at the thought and placed one of the herbs into the pill cauldron.
Huff!
Kun Nan heaved a sigh of relief when the pill cauldron did not make any more peculiar noises. His gaze fell on the last herb before him.
"Ladies and gentlemen, all of you know that the pill formula which the Honorable Sir Tianqi had retrieved had been damaged and incomplete. During this past year, I've been studying the ancient books and have finally discovered the final ingredient! The Exploding Fruit is the final ingredient for this pill. Soon, I will be successful in refining it!"
His words were full of confidence and everyone was subconsciously affected.
If Kun Nan has truly succeeded in interpreting this pill formula, he would have learned the long extinct art of pill refinement and from then on, his name would be etched in history.
He would become the first pill master since the ancient times.
What a great honor this would be! Even Gu Shengxiao, whom the Sect Master greatly admires, would not have such a great honor.
No!
That contrast was too far apart!
Kun Nan felt more and more excited at the thought as the chance to be remembered in history was within his sight. In the years to come, everyone will remember his name — Kun Nan.
At this moment, he had no wish for power or to be the disciple of the number one elder. He no longer wanted that!
He only wanted to be honored as the first pill master since the ancient times, this was more important than everything else!
"Not good!"
Gu Ruoyun's expression changed greatly, "He's actually thinking of adding the Berserk Fruit into the Martial Spirit Pill, does this guy no longer wish to live?"
If he wants to die, that's his business but he would clearly be dragging everyone down to hell with him!
"Little girl, what do you mean?"
The Honorable Sir Tianqi was shocked and turned towards Gu Ruoyun in astonishment.
"This is bad, there's no time!"
Whoosh!
Gu Ruoyun no longer cared about anything else as she charged towards Kun Nan at top speed.
If she had been alone, she could still take shelter within the Ancient Divine Pagoda. However, she was not the only one here. There was also the Honorable Sir Tianqi and Gu Shengxiao who was still in the middle of cultivation in the Spirit Sect.
The last ingredient in the Martial Spirit Pill refinement process should have been the Spirit Moon Herb which would alleviate the force of the explosion! In the end, he had miscalculated and added the more explosive Berserk Fruit!
The Berserk Fruit already contains explosive properties. If paired with the Martial Spirit pill, the entire Spirit Sect would be turned into a wasteland instantly. No one would be spared!
