Mighty Pill Alchemist Comes Back

Chapter 8

C8 – Zhuang Shaoying

Ma Xiaoyan understood Zhuang Shaoying well enough to know he would make such a statement. It wouldn’t be as much of an issue if it were a minor matter, but the current situation had escalated significantly, causing her great distress.

“Great elder, please take a moment to calm down. Let’s discuss this after the Patriarch finishes his seclusion,” she suggested.

The previous night, Zhuang Xing had given Zhuang Dou a Top Grade Pill, prompting him to immediately enter seclusion to cultivate. He planned to use the pill to achieve a breakthrough in his cultivation level and enhance his strength.

?”This little wretch crippled my son. I will make sure he pays for it,” Zhuang Shaoying fumed, consumed by rage. How could he possibly wait? With Zhuang Dou in seclusion, it was the perfect opportunity for him. If he didn’t take action against Zhuang Xing now, doing so after Zhuang Dou emerged would be nearly impossible.

Ma Xiaoyan was fraught with worry. The great elder’s position in the Zhuang family was second only to her husband. The incident was Zhuang Xing’s fault to begin with. Regardless, he should not have crippled Zhuang Guai, as it only served to deepen the rift. If not handled properly, the entire Zhuang family risked being torn apart.

?”Zhuang Shaoying, do you really think you have the power to cripple me?” a voice challenged, leaving everyone in shock. Zhuang Shaoying, the great elder of the Zhuang family, had already attained the Spirit Wheel Stage Level Three Heaven. He was far stronger than Zhuang Guai, and even the Patriarch, Zhuang Dou, wouldn’t claim to be able to best him.

?”Xing, have you lost your mind?” Ma Xiaoyan was terrified. It was astounding enough that Zhuang Xing had managed to defeat Zhuang Guai, but Zhuang Shaoying was a formidable warrior at the Spirit Wheel Stage Level Three Heaven, and Zhuang Xing, still at the Qi Refining Stage Level Nine Heaven, was no match for him.

“Xing, please don’t act rashly. We should wait to address this after your father concludes his seclusion,” she implored.

Zhuang Dou was in the midst of his seclusion, striving to reach the Spirit Wheel Stage Level Four Heaven. Success would place him at a level sufficient to overpower Zhuang Shaoying. At that point, no matter how deep Zhuang Shaoying’s resentment ran, he would be unable to seek vengeance against Zhuang Xing.

Zhuang Shaoying couldn’t help but laugh in sheer anger. This was undoubtedly the most ridiculous joke he had ever heard in his life.

“You little rascal, your confidence is clearly inflated. You don’t seem to regard anyone else at all.”

Zhuang Xing simply shrugged, offering no denial.

“Since you’re so confident, do you dare to join me in a life-and-death duel on the Martial Battle Platform?”

A life-and-death duel?

Everyone gasped at Zhuang Shaoying’s words. Such a duel was considered the most extreme confrontation one could engage in—no rules, no limits, just a fight to the very end.

It was clear to all that today’s events had escalated to a point of no return.

Zhuang Xing replied with disdain, “Why bother with the Martial Battle Platform? Let’s settle this right here, right now.”

Zhuang Shaoying had persistently targeted his father, always coveting the role of the Patriarch. It was only natural for Zhuang Xing to want to eliminate such a threat to ensure peace of mind.

“Xing, have you lost your mind? A life-and-death duel is no trifling matter!”

Ma Xiaoyan exclaimed, visibly shaken. Zhuang Shaoying was a practitioner of the Spirit Wheel Stage Level Three Heaven, while Zhuang Xing was merely at the Qi Refining Stage Level Nine Heaven. There was no way he could be a match for him.

“Little rascal, if you’re so eager to meet your end, I’ll happily oblige.”

Zhuang Shaoying burst into laughter, astounded by Zhuang Xing’s audacity.

With a thunderous roar, he unleashed a formidable energy that vibrated through the air and pulsated around him. His overwhelming presence sent everyone stepping back in awe.

“Mother, please move back. Let me take on this old fool.”

Ma Xiaoyan cast a worried glance at her son and then at Zhuang Shaoying. With a heavy sigh, she acknowledged her own inability to intervene due to her limited strength.

Zhuang Shaoying’s palm came crashing down, the Heaven Shocking Palm releasing a staggering force that barreled straight towards Zhuang Xing.

The Heaven Shocking Palm, with its formidable aura and strength, was beyond anything Zhuang Guai could hope to match. The sheer power of the attack left many in the crowd breathless.

“Heaven Shocking Palm? So what?”

As a Pill God, Zhuang Xing could effortlessly produce a Magic Spell far beyond the mere Human Rank.

“Heaven Flipping Seal.”

Zhuang Xing formed a seal with his hands, unleashing a formidable Seal Technique. The Heaven Flipping Seal appeared to be an Earth Rank High Level Martial Skill, a rarity even in the entire Great Qi Country.

?”What is this? Strange Sect Seal?”

The crowd was astounded. Observing Zhuang Xing’s Seal Technique, they naturally associated it with the Strange Sect Seal, one of the Zhuang family’s two Human Rank High Level Martial Skills. Its cultivation was notoriously difficult, surpassing even the Heaven Shocking Palm. Within the Zhuang family, only a select few had mastered the Strange Sect Seal.

“What technique is that, Xing’er?”

Ma Xiaoyan was taken aback. The skill Zhuang Xing executed resembled the Strange Sect Seal, yet it seemed different, which puzzled her.

“Hahaha, you’re so young and yet you dare to cultivate the Strange Sect Seal. How much of its power can you possibly harness?”

Zhuang Shaoying burst into laughter, showing disdain for Zhuang Xing. He had attempted to cultivate the Strange Sect Seal himself and knew all too well its immense difficulty and the challenge in mastering it. For Zhuang Xing to attempt it was akin to seeking his own demise.

Zhuang Xing simply smiled. What he had used was not the Strange Sect Seal, but the Heaven Flipping Seal, an Earth Rank High Level Martial Skill.

“Heaven Shocking Palm.”

Zhuang Shaoying unleashed a palm strike, sending a torrent of energy forth. It transformed into a formidable palm force, barreling directly towards Zhuang Xing.

His attack was fearsome; not even a Spirit Wheel Stage Expert might withstand it, much less a Qi Refining Stage Level Nine Heaven cultivator.

But as often is the case, reality can be harshly different from expectations. When his palm force collided with Zhuang Xing’s Seal Technique, it didn’t shatter as anticipated. Instead, it seemed to be repelled by Zhuang Xing’s counter.

“He’s actually blocked the great elder’s attack!”

“The Strange Sect Seal truly is the most challenging martial skill to master in the Zhuang family, and its might is indeed fearsome.”

The crowd was utterly astonished, their eyes wide with amazement.

“Can this really be the Strange Sect Seal?”

The area was crowded with onlookers, nearly everyone had turned out. Among them were those who had practiced the Strange Sect Seal themselves. Yet, as they watched Zhuang Xing execute his signature move, confusion was evident on their faces. The technique Zhuang Xing displayed didn’t appear to be the Strange Sect Seal.

But if it wasn’t the Strange Sect Seal, what kind of ultimate skill could it be? Within the Zhuang family, was there another skill capable of rivaling the Heaven Shocking Palm?

“Even a Spirit Wheel Stage Level Three Heaven expert is merely this.”
