The divine consciousness of Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou was powerful. Although they couldn't venture as far as those who roamed the skies, they could perceive everything around Shen Xiang clearly. Their divine consciousness was also being affected at this moment, seeing the same things as Shen Xiang saw.

They were still in contact with these three women, which relieved Shen Xiang: "So, will you be affected inside the Profound Lotus Pavilion"

"Only if we release our divine consciousness, what you see, I'll also see! But Dongchen and the others are still beside you. I believe that Elder Pill should have started her alchemy by now! She has already adapted to this environment, gaining a significant advantage. No wonder her concealment power is so strong; she must have cultivated in this kind of environment." Su Meiyao said.

Thinking about how others had treated him as a fool, Shen Xiang felt annoyed and hurriedly placed the alchemy furnace down. He opened the red box, starting to process the ingredients for the divine power pill alchemy.

There weren't many ingredients needed for this divine power pill. Not only were there no supporting ingredients, but only a few fruits that resembled stones, black and shiny. They felt cold to the touch, clearly indicating how difficult it would be to burn them.

"This divine power pill is only something I've attempted twice, and both times were unsuccessful. It's a rare pill with low utility and high difficulty in alchemy," Su Meiyao sighed. "Elder Pill really has put her heart into this! If you can't produce the divine power pill, you'll definitely lose in this competition."

Lose Although there was little loss even if he lost, Shen Xiang didn't want to lose at all. He knew his level in creating earth-grade pills was limited, having only produced the Nine Vessel Refining Body Pill so far.

"What's the main difficulty" Shen Xiang followed the記載, grinding the ingredient into a smooth surface for heat to penetrate.

"It's hard to burn, but once it's overburned, the ingredient will be ruined. These大力 fruits are usually good for two pills, and there are four here, allowing you to make two batches. However, based on your base level, one batch should use one."

"You only have three chances for failure, I believe you can produce it," Su Meiyao encouraged. "Don't lose to Elder Pill, she'll make you laugh until you die."

"Absolutely not!" Shen Xiang was determined, speeding up his efforts to grind the大力 fruit.

"By the way, these大力 fruits are similar to pure essence fruits-they produce great power when exploded. Be careful that your alchemy furnace doesn't explode," Su Meiyao warned.

Shen Xiang placed the fuel pearl under the alchemy furnace and used his divine consciousness to control the fire. Then, he put the大力 fruit inside the yellowish earthen alchemy furnace. This furnace was decent quality, but it could easily be damaged if there were any explosive incidents.

Of course, Shen Xiang usually used the Sacred Dragon Treasure Furnace for alchemy. Even if it blew up while making Divine Pill, it was unlikely to damage the Sacred Dragon Treasure Furnace.

"How can there be so many ingredients when he uses just a little" Dongchen said. Even some alchemists didn't understand these specialized pills, let alone someone like him.

Inside the red box were not only ingredients for大力 pills, but also ingredients for the Nine Vessel Refining Body Pill.

The initial alchemy required a large amount of divine consciousness since the fire wasn't generated by his body and couldn't be controlled as freely. Although Shen Xiang was doing well at the beginning, he was still using a lot of divine consciousness.

He started off smoothly, mastering his technique well, even though he used up a lot of divine consciousness.

During the process, mistakes were made continuously, but he could correct them in time to avoid errors. When he thought the process was going smoothly, a sudden roar echoed.

"F**k, could these illusions affect me What the hell am I going to do with this!" Shen Xiang suddenly grew concerned.

"Don't know. I believe not, it's just affecting your spirit!" Long Xiye said.

A giant beast suddenly soared out of the sea, covered in long black spikes. It looked like a cow but was gigantic in size. When it landed, the entire small island trembled violently, causing waves to surge and a huge wave appearing at a distance that was slowly moving towards it.

The beast looked at Shen Xiang, letting out another roar before pouncing on him. Shen Xiang was startled and instinctively moved away, still holding the alchemy furnace.

After dodging, a strong wave swept through him, preventing him from escaping. He was hit by the waves, but he felt nothing since it was only an illusion, leaving him with a cold sweat.

Meanwhile, Dongchen and the others found it hilarious to watch Shen Xiang's reaction. They thought of him as a mad monkey jumping around.

Suddenly, the alchemy furnace began to shake. Shen Xiang was alarmed and quickly opened it, allowing the energy of大力 fruit inside to burst out. This prevented the alchemy furnace from being destroyed, considering the pressure on divine consciousness if he used the Illusionary Alchemy Furnace.

After the waves passed, Shen Xiang noticed that the surroundings had changed. He was now in a dark and eerie wasteland filled with corpses, some of which were decomposing, releasing stinky smells.

"You died in the previous illusion, so you're here now," Long Xiye said solemnly. "If you die in this illusion, the next one will be worse."

"That's fine, they're illusions. I just need to ignore them and won't be affected," Shen Xiang continued inserting大力 fruits into the furnace, starting again. Being in such a place could easily drive someone insane, but he was confident that he wouldn't become a madman.

Elder Pill remained calm throughout, unlike Shen Xiang who was overly alarmed by the situation. She had been adapting to her surroundings here, after all.

Shen Xiang closed his eyes and quietly started alchemy. Suddenly, he heard a snap and low, eerie howls. Cold wind blew, making him shiver. He opened his eyes, gasping in horror when he saw someone eating decomposed bodies far away.

"Just an illusion!" Shen Xiang took a deep breath. He had great concentration, quickly putting those sights out of his mind. However, the stinky smells continued bothering him.

What he found most unbearable was the sound of chewing, accompanied by some kind of force guiding him to imagine disgusting scenes and further layered with the stinky smell. It was almost enough to make him break the alchemy furnace.

A light step sounded, and his eyelashes lifted. A very scary old man was crawling towards him with his eyes gouged out and some green items left in his mouth.

If this wasn't an illusion, Shen Xiang would have swung the alchemy furnace at him without hesitation. This kind of disturbance was too detrimental to one's mood.lines.
