《King Of All Heavens》Chapter 48: Denying Destruction Pill
Advertisement
Madman! This was the only thing that the old man could think off. His eyes were flashed with disappointment a bit.
'Was my intuition wrong? Was I incorrect?' Ku Feng thought to himself.
He looked at Wang Tian and tried to discern if the kid was playing with him. But the youth was acting like he's deeply concentrated on refining!
Wang Tian was looking at the furnace and was controlling the Phoenix Tarnisher Flame Spirit with all his mind. Since this was the first time he tried to refine a pill, he was quite nervous. But there was no room for mistakes. He had to succeed otherwise the old man would really take him for a fool.
He controlled the Phoenix Tarnisher Flame Spirit skillfully and melted the ingredients thoroughly. The Destroy and Create Technique was a very peculiar technique. Wang Tian used the flame spirit and directed it at the ingredients. The flame spirit formed a hand and separated the ingredients very cleanly. This was the uniqueness of the Destroy and Create Technique. It focuses on the skillful manipulation of the flame spirit and coupled it with vast knowledge of different fields, it gradually gave one the capability to manifest anything inside a cauldron while refining. Take note that manipulating the flame spirit when refining is extremely difficult than manipulating the flame spirit when you aren't refining. Destroying people with the flame spirit is much easier than creating a pill using it.
After an hour, the pill was starting to take shape. After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, a loud ping sound reverberated inside the room. A thick medicinal aroma filled the air as Wang Tian opened the cauldron.
Ku Feng watched wide eyed as he used his adept eyes to look at the cauldron.
There are pills! 14 of them! That's a very high number! And all of them are high quality pills! Good god! Am I dreaming? Can pills really be refined this way?
He looked at Wang Tian suspiciously.
"What?" Wang Tian asked.
"What... What did you do? Are these pills authentic and real?" Ku Feng asked suspiciously.
Wang Tian nodded and then threw a pill towards Ku Feng.
"Have a look at it" Wang Tian said.
Ku Feng examined the pill and grew much more shocked as the details were unveiled before his eyes.
80% of the pill was pure medicine! Only 20% was lost in the process! That's a fucking miracle! These pills are a miracle! Even Ku Feng himself can only refine a pill with half of the medicinal efficacy being lost and he was an Alchemist Grandmaster!
"It is indeed a Tier 2 pill. What is it called?" Ku Feng asked as he looked at the youth in a different light.
"It is called the Denying Destruction Pill." Wang Tian coolly said.
"What does it do?" The old man asked.
"Call for three people. Two of them should have the same cultivation while the last one should have the cultivation base a level above them. It'll explain everything." Wang Tian replied.
"Oh and that last person should have an abyssal ranked spell. The two other guys should at least have a standard ranked spell. Otherwise, the effects of the pill would be dull and wouldn't be exhibited to its full potential" Wang Tian said.
"Wow brat, you're really ordering me around like a servant" Ku Feng replied. Feigning anger but he nevertheless did what the youth told him to do. He used his connections and status to have someone come with the requirements that Wang Tian set. Although the part where two people had to have a standard ranked spell was a bit of a stretch since standard ranked spells are uncommon. But using his status, he could complete that requirement. It just costed him a bit more.

Ku Feng told Wang Tian that they should set up an audience as to not have any other person to question his ability when the time comes. Wang Tian agreed instantly since it saved him from future troubles.
The two of them proceeded to a wide space with a bunch of people from the alchemist guild waiting. They were here to watch and look at this person who took their Alchemist Grandmaster's time.
They sized up that person and they were quite surprised. Isn't he a bit too young to be able to refine a Tier 2 pill? Is this some kind of a joke? A child who's still wet behind his ears, showing himself here and claiming that he's able to refine?
"Old Feng, what is this nonsense? Don't tell me this is the one who's applied to become an Alchemist Master? Someone you made an exception off?" An old man with a scar on his face said. This man was also an Alchemist Grandmaster.
"Old Teng, quit your yapping? When was I ever incorrect huh?" Ku Feng mocked as he answered. Clearly the two had bad blood towards each other.
Teng Fuo's face froze. He had no other way to retort. His rival was right. He has never heard of Ku Feng ever being wrong on such major issues like these. Thus, he had no way to retort. He could only shut his mouth as to not embarrass himself any further.
"That's what I thought" Ku Feng answered with a snort.
The crowd laughed when they heard the two argue.
"Alright settle down folks. Brother Feng, was he really able to refine a Tier 2 pill?" Another old man asked nicely. Assuming from the way he spoke, he must be a good friend of the old man. Wang Tian thought. He didn't bother with anyone else and just observed what was happening. Like the clouds in the sky, a spectator to what was playing out.
Ku Feng nodded.
"When have I been wrong brother Jia Le? Trust me on this" Ku Feng said as he patted Wang Tian's shoulder.
"Ladies and gents, you all know me so I shall not introduce myself any further." Ku Feng's voice echoed about.
Then he looked at Wang Tian and said,
"This young man here is called Wang Tian. He has shown me that he can refine a Tier 2 pill."
"He is a fine lad and i daresay that he is one of the most exceptional alchemists I have ever seen in my entire life." Ku Feng said as he praised Wang Tian.
The crowd looked at the young man and sized him up. Carefully wanting to see what made him so special that their very own Alchemist Grandmaster would praise him so highly.
Wang Tian met all of their prying gazes calmly. He wanted to have a good impression to them as they will be useful in the future. He smiled at them. He cupped his fists and bowed slightly to them.
If they knew that the person who bowed in front of them was a member of the Sect that lorded over them. Then they would probably die from shame and be scared shitless. They dared to let a member of that sect bow in front of them? Even look at him with prying eyes? Were they courting death? Did they want their eyes gouged out?
In reality, even Ku Feng didn't know who Wang Tian was as he only returned yesterday. The news of a young man with an eye patch who came from the Seven Star Sword Sect hadn't reached him. So he hadn't treated Wang Tian with utmost care and even dared to call him brat. But Wang Tian didn't mind. He wasn't the petty type to dwell on such small matters.

After Ku Feng spoke, he signalled with his right arm and three people walked to the front. The two had the same cultivation base, being at the 8th level of Houtian Lifeform realm. While the third person was a level nine Houtian Lifeform.
Wang Tian gave 7 of the Denying Destruction pills to Ku Feng and Ku Feng handed one to each of the three and also giving the crowd the other four.
"This pill is called the Denying Destruction Pill." Ku Feng said as he looked at Wang Tian signalling him to start explaining what the pill does. Since they clearly didn't know anything about it.
Although they were all old monsters, they really couldn't tell what the pill thus. Well, it was only natural since this pill wasn't an ordinary pill. It came from another planet. A pill that his master came across before he rested in this planet.
Wang Tian nodded and said, "This pill is a very unique pill. It can nullify an abyssal ranked spell of someone who's a level above you. If you use it against someone of the same level, then it can even nullify a supreme ranked spell!"
His words caused waves to form in the minds of the crowd.
'A pill that can nullify a supreme ranked spell?? Was that even possible?' Some of them thought.
They have never heard of such a pill even though they have lived for hundreds of years.
Ku Feng was also shocked. Wang Tian didn't explain to him what the pill does so he just thought that it'd be something quite normal. But he never imagined that it was a very unique pill that can make the user to be able to easily nullify even a supreme ranked spell! That was quite a feat in itself!
The three people whom were the ones to consume the pill first were looking at the pills in their hands with shining eyes. If what that youth said was true, then it definitely was a treasure!
Especially for people who were constantly battling. If such a pill was accessible to them anytime, then this pill could be said to be a trump card or an extra life.
Wang Tian smiled and said to the two guys who have the same cultivation,
"What's your name?" He looked at the man who was clad in white and black.
"Xian Tei" The man said respectfully.
"And what's yours?" Wang Tian nodded at the man clad in black and white and then looked at the man who was clad in yellow.
"Te Long" The man clad in yellow answered respectfully.
These two looked to be about twenty to thirty years old. They were both at the 8th level of the Houtian Lifeform realm. With such a cultivation and age, they could be considered as talented. Well, if you don't compare them to the disciples of the Seven Star Sword Sect that is. In a place like the Moon Summit Empire, they could be considered as experts and prodigies.
"Alright. Senior Xian Tei, you go first. Go attack Senior Te Long with at least a standard ranked spell." Wang Tian instructed Xian Tei. He adressed the both of them as senior because they had a higher cultivation base and were older. While Wang Tian don't want to be overly polite, he didn't mind it.
"Senior Te Long, swallow the pill now" Wang Tian instructed.
"This pill can nullify a single attack and the effect of the pill will lay dormant inside the body as long as the owner is not attacked by any spell. It'll automatically activate and that's the only downside to this pill. Of course, if you're skilled in controlling whatever is in your body then it won't be a problem for you." Wang Tian smiled and explained.
The crowd grew much more astonished as Wang Tian explained what the pill does.
"How many times can the user use the pill?" One of the people from the crowd asked.
"Anywhere from 5-10 times. Depending on the quality of the pill. This pill that I've concocted is only a low quality pill but the impurities within it is only 20%. Thus, as long as you have a Cleansing Body pill, then you can be able to consume the pill 5-10 times." Wang Tian explained.
"There is no side effect to this pill other than the impurities that come from consuming a pill that's not 100% in medicinal efficacy." Wang Tian said.
The crowd nodded in realization.
What a miraculous pill! If they had this, then they would have an extra 10 lives! That was completely absurd! If this pill was released into the world, then this would cause a storm and wars!
Teng Fuo looked at Wang Tian greedily. If he could get the recipe of this pill, then he would be able to use it as a bargaining chip for future trades! This would bring him immense benefit.
'Should I kill him right now?' Teng Fuo thought to himself.
Then he decided against it. There were naturally people that would be against his decision and one of them was Ku Feng. He wouldn't be able to fight all of them by himself. One other thing to consider was that the background of this youth was unknown to all of them. He didn't know why but as he looked at the youth's face, he felt like he was familiar. Like he has heard of the youth before or to be exact, the description of a youth wearing an eye patch. He just couldn't put his finger on it.
"Alright, start" Wang Tian said.
Te Long swallowed the pill in his hands.
"Are you ready brother?" Xian Tei asked Te Long as he prepared to attack using a standard ranked spell.
"Haha, more than ready brother." Te Long laughed. He didn't know why but he was feeling a bit confident towards the pill that the youth made.
"Here i go!" Xian Tei screamed.
"Blazing Sun spell!" Xian Tei called out.
In an instant, a gigantic sun appeared out of thin air. The temperature of the room became incredibly hot. Xian Tei's face was very focused as he threw the gigantic sun to Te Long.
'What a powerful spell!' Wang Tian remarked. He was quite fascinated as things like these only happened in games back in his past life. The appearance of a gigantic piping hot sun was astonishing for him.
The gigantic sun got closer and closer to Te Long. The yellow clad man felt death continuously become much more vivid. He gasped and then controlled the effect of the pill inside his body.
5 meters...
4 meters...
3 meters...
2 meters...
1 meter!
When the gigantic sun came as close as a meter away from Te Long, a circular shield appeared and covered Te Long's whole body. Completely shielding him from the gigantic sun. The shield and the gigantic sun met head on. The gigantic sun couldn't pierce the shield so it could only dissipate. Not long after the gigantic sun dissipated, the circular shield also followed suit.
The crowd gasped in astonishment at the scene. Their pupils constricted. They couldn't help but feel like they were in a dream.
Such a powerful pill exists!?
Xian Tei's face became pale after he casted that spell as it was very straining to the body if one uses a standard ranked spell. However, his eyes were shining.
"Eh? I didn't get burnt?" Te Long said in shock.
"Alright! Let me have a go at it next! Brother Xian, swallow the pill and let me cast my spell on you!" Te Long said excitedly. He wanted to witness what had happened again.
Wang Tian smiled at the scene.
'Eye patch, eye patch, eye patch... When have I heard this before' someone from the crowd thought to himself.
After a few moments he came into realization.
"Ah!" He cried out.
The people beside him looked at him and asked in worry,
"Fu Ning, what's wrong? Why are you screaming?" Someone asked.
"He-he's!" Fu Ning pointed at Wang Tian with his fingers trembling.
"What? What??"
"He's from the Seven Star Sword Sect!" He cried out in panic and fear.
Fu Ning yelled it out so everyone in the room heard it.
'What?! He's from that sect!?'
'No way!'
'Shit we're going to die!'
