Beside him, Zi Yan was also nodding like crazy.
If she had known earlier that pills could actually advance in rank, she never should have eaten them the moment she got them. If she had kept them for a while, let them grow into higher-grade pills, then eaten them… wouldn't that have been amazing?
Seeing the two of them misunderstanding, Ye Xin Lan quickly waved her hand and explained, "Not every pill can turn into a Pill Beast and then cultivate and evolve."
"Normally, only when a pill reaches the eight-colored does it have a one-in-ten-thousand chance of becoming a Pill Beast. If you want a pill to definitely turn into a Pill Beast, it has to be a nine-colored eighth-tier pill."
"Nine-Colored Eighth-Tier Pill?!"
Hearing Ye Xin Lan's explanation, Feng Qing'er and Zi Yan were first shocked, and then instantly turned around. In less than a blink, the two had already vanished at the end of the staircase.
"Hey! You two, don't run so fast, wait for us!"
Seeing Zi Yan and Feng Qing'er disappear the moment they heard "nine-colored eighth-tier pill," the Three Beauties of the Pill Tower hurriedly chased after them.
Lin Feng saw this and immediately snapped, "All of you, stop right there! Don't forget this hall is filled with poison gas, poison gas!"
As he shouted, Lin Feng also helplessly chased after them.
After all, he definitely didn't want something happening to his four wives or that reckless girl Zi Yan inside this ancient ruin. When Lin Feng reached the third floor, he was relieved to see that none of the women had been bewitched by the idea of a nine-colored eighth-tier pill.
Right now, all five of them were at the stairway, continuously unleashing Dou Techniques or flames to burn away the transparent poisonous mist left behind by Saint Zhao Hua. As for the surrounding air, it was already filled with a nauseating, fishy stench.
But with the five women working together, the poison mist was quickly cleared. Right after, the five of them split into three teams and rushed off in different directions.
"These girls are way too impatient…"
Seeing how eager they were, Lin Feng could only shake his head helplessly. Then he picked a direction no one else had gone toward and flew over.
He casually chose one stone chamber, pushed the door open, and entered. After walking inside, he noticed that this particular pill room wasn't very large, but it was extremely clean.
A glance around told him that this place was likely used to store pill formulas — the shelves inside were filled with scrolls of all kinds. Roughly estimating, there were about fifty or sixty scrolls. These items immediately caught Lin Feng's interest.
So as soon as he saw them, he walked up to take a look. Once he realized these pill formulas were all pretty high-grade eighth-tier pill formulas, he directly stored them into his ring.
Right now, he wanted to finish searching this Pill Hall as quickly as possible, then head to the main hall to take that Heaven Class Dou Technique. He didn't have time to study the scrolls in detail.
After finishing this stone chamber, Lin Feng continued searching the others one by one. During the search, he not only found pill formulas but also a few ancient pills that seemed decent — seven-colored and even eight-colored eighth-tier pills.
Although the medicinal energy inside those pills was still strong, none of them had descriptions, so Lin Feng couldn't determine their specific effects for now. After checking eight stone chambers in a row, Lin Feng was actually quite pleased.
Even though he hadn't found the Pill Beast, he had harvested a rather impressive number of ancient pill formulas.
These things suited Lin Feng perfectly. For an alchemist like him, a high-tier pill formula he'd never seen before was often more precious than a pill itself. However, after finishing his sweep, he also saw the five women gathering ahead in the same place.
Judging by their expressions, they were also almost done searching the third floor of the Pill Hall.
Creak—
As Lin Feng pushed open the last stone chamber in his direction and glanced inside, his brows immediately furrowed slightly. Because compared to the other stone rooms, this one was much larger, yet at the same time much emptier.
Looking around, there were only three scrolls and a small white beast that seemed irritated, likely because its door had been forced open.
"Nine-Colored Eighth-Tier Pill!"
Staring at the white little beast that stood out so clearly inside the pitch-black stone room, Lin Feng froze for a moment before shouting in surprise.
At the same time, the Heavenly Flames inside his body instantly circulated, forming a thick wall of fire before him, sealing the entire entrance to prevent the creature from escaping.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The moment his shout echoed throughout the hall, the five women nearby ignored everything else and used their fastest movement Dou Techniques to rush over.
"Lin Feng, where's the pill? I've never seen a nine-colored eighth-tier pill since I was born, what does it look like?!"
Before she even landed, Zi Yan, who had just dashed over, was already shouting impatiently. Hearing her, the other women all nodded vigorously, excitement written all over their faces as they stared at Lin Feng.
"I've blocked it inside."
Seeing how worked-up the girls were, Lin Feng tapped the black fire wall in front of him, opening a small viewing window near the top.
Hearing this, Zi Yan was the first to shove herself forward, her eyes peeking through the small opening as she scanned the room. Very quickly, she spotted a white shadow within the dark stone chamber.
Looking more closely, it was a small beast covered completely in snow-white fur. It looked like a cat, but its body was unusually plump — like it had eaten too much and was now stuffed to bursting. Its round, bulging belly made it look silly and harmless.
However, Zi Yan couldn't sense any energy fluctuations from it at all. It really did feel like just a regular fat wild cat.
"Did Lin Feng get it wrong?"
Seeing no energy coming from the little beast at all, Zi Yan muttered quietly.
But still unwilling to give up, she leaned in even closer, sniffing intently with her small nose. With that sniff, she instantly caught a faint, very faint trace of pill fragrance — one so delicious it instantly made her appetite surge.
It drifted slowly from inside the small beast's body straight into her nose.
"Mm?!"
Sensing something completely unusual, Zi Yan's eyes flew wide open as she stared at the chubby white cat in disbelief.
After all, while she was impulsive and straightforward, she wasn't stupid. If this round, pudgy little creature really was just a normal animal with no energy at all, how could it possibly have such a strong pill scent?
This scent… compared to the fragrance Lin Feng's eight-colored eighth-tier pill released during the Pill Gathering…
Even in the same amount, this smell was at least ten times stronger. This little guy was definitely that nine-colored eighth-tier pill!
