Chapter 477: Pill Thunder Appears Above Yun Lan Sect!
Han Xue, like Qing Lin, is quite young, so Gu He decided not to give her too much pressure for the time being. He directly replied, "You don't have any tasks for now."
Hearing Gu He's words, Han Xue's clear eyes blinked twice in succession. It was unclear whether she felt disappointed or relieved for not being assigned a task. Soon, she eagerly said to Gu He, "Master, can Xue'er go out and train like the senior sisters?"
Upon hearing this, Gu He smiled and gently replied, "If you want to go out and train, you can, but you have to go with your senior sisters. You cannot act alone."
Currently, Xiao Yixian, Han Yue, and Nalan Yanran have all made notable progress in their cultivation. With the three of them looking out for her, Han Xue wouldn't face too many problems while training.
"Really? Thank you, Master!" Han Xue exclaimed excitedly upon hearing Gu He agree to her idea.
That day, under Gu He's teachings, the cultivation attitudes of Xiao Yixian and the other three finally returned to their previous diligence. However, they didn't go out to train because their master’s wife was due to give birth in about a month and a half. Since their task duration spanned a few years, they naturally planned to wait until after Yun Yun gave birth before making other arrangements.
At Jia Nan Academy, over the Nine-Colored Valley in the rear mountain of the Yun Lan Sect, the previously clear sky suddenly began to gather dark clouds. The entire sky turned gloomy.
"What happened? Why did the sky suddenly become so dark over there?"
"Isn't that the direction of the rear mountain?"
"What happened in the rear mountain?"
Above the Nine-Colored Valley, as thick clouds gathered and the sky darkened, many disciples of the Yun Lan Sect turned their attention to the sky.
Elders like Yun Ling also flew into the sky above the buildings, looking there with solemn expressions.
"Great Elder, with such an unusual change in the rear mountain, can you tell what's happening?" An elder with a worried expression asked Yun Ling.
During this time, with the young sect master Nalan Yanran away from the sect, Yun Ling, the Great Elder, was in charge of all major and minor affairs of the Yun Lan Sect. With such a change, the elders naturally turned to him for answers.
At this moment, hearing the inquiry from the elders, Yun Ling's cloudy eyes stared intently at the sky, remaining silent.
However, when lightning faintly flickered in that part of the sky, Yun Ling's eyes suddenly sparkled with brilliance.
"This... could it be the legendary Pill Thunder!" Yun Ling muttered, his lips trembling slightly.
"Pill Thunder?"
Hearing Yun Ling's words, some elders familiar with the sect's records immediately showed a hint of excitement.
"According to the records, when some alchemists refine seventh-grade or higher-tier pills, Pill Thunder will descend from the sky."
"Pill Thunder is a necessary test when high-tier pills are completed. Starting from the seventh-grade, pills gradually develop intelligence. Such pills can be considered divine creations that usurp nature’s power, so the heavens send thunder calamities to stop the pills from forming!"
"Since Pill Thunder has appeared, who is refining a seventh-grade pill?"
"In our Yun Lan Sect, who else has the ability to refine a seventh-grade pill other than Elder Gu He!"
"If Elder Gu He can refine a seventh-grade pill, doesn't that mean he has become a seventh-grade alchemist!"
"Unbelievable! Our Yun Lan Sect actually has a seventh-grade alchemist!"
"A seventh-grade alchemist—such a level might not even be found in the famed Black-Corner Region!"
Quickly, all the elders and disciples of Yun Lan Sect concluded that Gu He was refining a seventh-grade pill in the rear mountain, and they were all immensely excited and proud.
Currently, Yun Lan Sect's position in the entire Jia Ma Empire is unparalleled. Its reputation is also substantial among the neighboring major nations and numerous smaller countries. Moreover, the news about Yun Lan Sect's three branches has started spreading towards the vast territory of the Black-Corner Region.
If the news of Gu He breaking through to become a seventh-grade alchemist spreads, it will likely cause another huge sensation. At that time, Yun Lan Sect's status will rise further, and talents from all over will scramble to join the sect.
Amidst the excitement, Yun Shan emerged from a secluded chamber in the rear mountain of Yun Lan Sect, standing on a bare rock, his gaze complex as he looked at the dark clouds with silver lightning over Nine-Colored Valley.
In those dark clouds, Yun Shan felt a colossal pressure that even made him tremble slightly.
"Recruiting Gu He into the sect and investing heavily in his training was the best decision I, Yun Shan, have ever made!" Yun Shan thought excitedly.
Back then, his breakthrough to Dou Zong was entirely thanks to Gu He's Po Zong Pill. The Po Zong Pill is a top-tier sixth-grade pill, and its refinement difficulty is no less than that of a seventh-grade pill. Therefore, he was aware of Gu He's terrifying skills in alchemy.
When the Protector from the Soul Hall approached Yun Shan earlier, he also deduced from Chi Jiao that Gu He had incredibly formidable strength.
"Haha, my Yun Lan Sect is finally going to restore the glory of our ancestors in this generation!" After a moment of reflection, Yun Shan exhaled deeply and laughed wildly atop the giant rock.
Under countless watchful eyes, a robust silver figure suddenly flew out from the sky below the rear mountain, appearing beneath the thunderclouds.
Facing the immense pressure from the thunderclouds, the silver figure did not waver at all, seemingly unafraid of the impending terrifying Pill Thunder.
"It's Elder Gu He. Elder Gu He is coming out to face the Pill Thunder!"
"Oh my god, such terrifying thunder might, and Elder Gu He is so close to the thunderclouds. Could it be dangerous for him?"
These Yun Lan Sect disciples, being far away, naturally assumed that the silver figure, though barely visible, was Gu He.
However, from Yun Shan's position, with his current strength, he could roughly discern that the person under the thunderclouds was not Gu He.
"Who is that? When did our Yun Lan Sect have another such powerful figure?" Yun Shan muttered in surprise. Soon, he recalled Chi Jiao, and nodded to himself, thinking, "Since Gu He could subdue a terrifying expert like Chi Jiao, it's not surprising that he could subdue other experts as well!"
