Another emerald-green pillar of light shot into the sky from within the cauldron. However, this time, the pillar of light was even more magnificent, the boundless energy contained within it made even an ancient Great Saint cultivator speechless.

Bang!

Following Gu Xi’s sudden slap on the cauldron, ten streams of light shot out from within it at an extremely fast speed. Soon after, they fled in all directions.

Without the slightest hesitation, Gu Xi’s toes tapped on the ground and his entire body rose into the air. He immediately threw out ten jade bottles in succession and accurately placed these ten rays of light into the jade bottles.

“Success.” Gu Xi slowly landed on the ground. He looked at the ten jade bottles floating in front of him and grinned.

“This… This is the pill?!” looking at what had happened in front of him, Elder Gu could not help but stutter.

“When it comes to refining pills, I like to do it quicker,” Gu Xi said indifferently, as if he had done something insignificant.

Hearing this, few of them looked at Gu Xi as if they were looking at a monster.

What the f*ck was this!?

It was an eighth-grade Saint Breakthrough Pill after all. How could it be refined so quickly?!

Moreover, it was refined at the same time with ten pills. This speed was simply shocking!

“Let me take a look at the pill.” Qing Zhu was the first to come back to her senses. Her expression was not too good. “You’d better not fool me. Otherwise, you’ll have to bear the consequences.”

There was an undisguised threat in her words. If Gu Xi really fooled her, even if Yun Zhiyi, who was also in the Great Saint realm, was here, she would make Gu Xi pay the price he deserved.

Gu Xi shrugged, and a jade bottle flew into Qing Zhu’s hand.

Qing Zhu Glanced at Gu Xi coldly, and then impatiently opened the jade bottle. She was already prepared to teach Gu Xi a lesson at any time.

The moment the jade bottle was opened, the dense medicinal fragrance that rushed toward her made her feel refreshed. Her beautiful eyes were filled with surprise.

Taking out the medicinal pill, Qing Zhu’s eyes carefully sized up the jade-green medicinal pill in her hand, and her heart instantly surged with waves of shock.

“Young Miss… This is indeed an eight-grade medicinal pill, the Saint Breakthrough Pill.”

An ancient voice sounded from the side, and he was doing his best to suppress the shock in his heart!

“Not only that, this is also… a perfect Saint Breakthrough Pill!”

Qing Zhu took a deep breath. Her voice was also filled with shock. Then, she raised her head to look at Gu Xi, who was not far away from her, “How did you do it?”

“Is it very difficult?” Gu Xi shrugged, as if this was nothing at all.

Let alone ten pills, even if it was another hundred, how card can it be?

Of course, Gu Xi could only bury this thought deep in his heart. If this was known by others, it would probably bring him a lot of unnecessary trouble.

“Very good. Now I owe you a favor.”

Seeing that Gu Xi was unwilling to say more, Qing Zhu did not continue to ask.

Who did not have a few secrets? There was no need to get to the bottom of it.

As soon as she finished speaking, Qing Zhu turned around and walked toward the room. Her voice sounded leisurely again, “Elder Gu, I’ll have to trouble you for the following period of time.”

Elder Gu nodded slightly. However, before Qing ZHu could take a few steps, the spirit boat beneath her feet suddenly began to tremble. It was unknown what kind of stimulation the spatial energy within this Void Tunnel had received at this moment, it began to gradually become irritable.

“What’s happening?” This was their first reaction.

Elder Gu frowned, and immediately stomped his feet on the deck. His entire body instantly rose from the ground, and in an instant, he arrived at the highest point of the spirit boat.

In the next moment, an invisible majestic spiritual sense quickly spread to the surroundings.

In the next moment, that somewhat skinny face gradually sank.

“Elder Gu, what is going on?!” Qing Zhu’s voice sounded from below.

“Speed up the spirit boat to full speed. There are demon beasts attacking!”

Elder Gu’s reply caused the expressions of the few people below to change.

Without saying anything else, Yun Zhiyi began to pour a large amount of spirit energy into the spirit boat. At the same time, the speed of the spirit boat suddenly increased, and it rushed forward at a speed several times faster than before.

Gu Xi protected Song Qingluan behind him, and his face was filled with bewilderment.

Where did the demon beasts come from in this Void Tunnel?

If not for Yun Zhiyi starting to move, he would even feel that Gu Xi was joking with them to scare them.

In order to further verify his thoughts, Gu Xi slowly closed his eyes. The spiritual sense in his mind tilted out without holding anything back, spreading rapidly to the surroundings with him as the center.

Under his perception, the spatial power within a radius of dozens of miles began to riot. He had no doubt that if the barrier covering the spirit ship was broken, they would be cut into pieces along with the ship.

Even if there were Great Saint cultivators here, it was already difficult enough for Elder Yun and Elder Gu to protect themselves, let alone save them.

“Something is approaching at such a fast speed!”

Gu Xi seemed to sense something with her spiritual sense and looked into the distance.

There, the power of space was particularly chaotic…

“Brother Yun, you and I will block this guy!” Above them, Elder Gu’s voice sounded a little hurried.

Hearing this, Yun Zhiyi did not hesitate at all. His body trembled and he appeared beside the ancient. Both of their eyes looked in the direction that Gu Xi was looking.

“Hurry up and speed up the spirit boat, the faster the better!”

Gu Xi’s voice sounded once again. His voice was unquestionable.

Qing Zhu and Gu Xi exchanged glances. Immediately, both of them poured the spiritual energy within their bodies into the spirit boat below without holding anything back.

Now was not the time to conserve their strength. If they were not careful, their group would forever remain in this spatial rift!

The speed of the spirit boat became increasingly faster under their combined effort. However, what made their hearts sink was that no matter how fast the spirit boat under their feet accelerated, the heart-palpitating fluctuation behind them was not shaken off at all.

In fact… it was getting closer and closer!

“How can there be demon beasts living in the void?”

Gu Xi asked curiously as he poured all her spiritual power into it.

Not far away, Qing Zhu looked at Gu Xi with some surprise. Clearly, she did not expect that the latter did not even know about this.

“There have always been demon beasts in the void, but the void is incomparably vast. Under normal circumstances, we humans would rarely be able to come into contact with them.”

Qing Zhu spoke in a deep voice, her black brows tightly furrowed as she looked into the distance. “This time, we were able to meet them. I think it is most likely because of the commotion caused by the pill refinement earlier. It must have attracted their attention.”
