- Chapter 2976 -
On the side of Hestia, Noah was the only one visibly disconcerted. There was a frown on his face as he seemed to be
deep in thought.
At that moment, a green light shone in the air as small jade tubes descended from the light, falling into the hands of all
the alchemists present.
Jack reached out and grabbed one. His divine senses entered the tube, and he quickly read the contents of it. The tube
was, in fact, the recipe for the Purple Sun Pill. The contents were incredibly detailed and even specified certain important
parts that needed to be focused on. Furthermore, the tube had various rules that were specific to this round.
All the materials had been prepared and were placed under the furnaces. Everyone had only two chances, so there were

performed, there would be no consideration given.
There was even a small paragraph written down. On it was the fact that the Purple Sun Pill needed a total of 5600 pill
runes, out of which 983 of them were ancient pill runes.
The moment they saw that paragraph, everyone was flabbergasted. The relaxed atmosphere from earlier
disappeared as everyone visibly frowned.
5600 pill runes were not much when it came to seventh-grade pills, but out of that number, 983 of them were
ancient pill runes, which made things completely different. It did not raise the difficulty by just a level but several
times over instead!
The jade tube illustrated all of the pill runes clearly. In particular, it paid special attention to the ancient pill runes.
They used their divine senses to look through all of the pill runes, but they regretfully realized that they did not
know a single one of them. They had not even seen them before. That meant that they would need to learn all of
the ancient pill runes from scratch. They only had a short five days to memorize and successfully condense those
pill runes. They would also need to make sure they were at least 50 percent refined.
All this amounted to the spike of level difficulty that they could not accept. It was incredibly hard for alchemists to
rank up. The difference between the two grades of alchemists was incredibly wide, and the key lay in pill runes.
After all, higher-level pills needed more pill runes to be etched into them. Even if they were not ancient pill runes,
remembering and condensing 983 new runes was not something that simple.
Knowing all this, many of the alchemists present began fearing they would fail this stage entirely.
Jack sighed as he pursed his lips helplessly. This explained why they were given five days for this round. With the
difficulty of the test, five days was barely something to utilize, what with needing to memorize 983 new ancient pill
runes in just five days. After that, they needed to condense those runes to a 50-percent refinement rate.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was not easy at all!
The alchemists from the Chaos Continent could not keep their composure. Even though there was a difference in the
skills of alchemists between the worlds, none of them thought that this round was an easy one.
Ethan and Emilio’s faces sank.
Meanwhile, a few alchemists muttered among themselves, “I thought that we’d be getting a break by now, yet this is
what happens!”
“Isn’t this too hard? I feel like most of us here won’t even be able to refine a Purple Sun Pill, let alone one at fifty percent
refinement. Anyone who manages to get forty percent is impressive enough!”
“It seems like we’re very unlucky. It’ s not like we don’t know what the earlier rounds had to go through. Compared to the
earlier six groups, this group is noticeably several times harder!”
