This made Snowy's way to do Alchemy unique.

Snowy didn't just follow the pattern but stepped one level beyond: she mastered the rhythms and arranged them to harmonize with each other.

In Snowy's hand, medicine ingredients were like musical instruments put together forming an assemble.

It was a display that was too amazing for words!

Grand Alchemist Chen Xi didn't even dare to blink as he didn't want to miss even a second of this grand performance.

"Fabulous, truly fabulous! This was the real alchemy grandmaster!" exclaimed Chen Xi while clapped his hand excitedly.

Although they didn't know anything about alchemy, All people present were also moved by this spectacle.

Bzzt!

A colorful flame suddenly erupted from Snowy's palm. It was Myriad Flame.

Plop!

Grand Alchemist Chen Xi fell in his butt when he saw the flame.

"Wh-what the heck is that flame? It's so majestic! so pure!"

He gulped several times while looking at the blazing flame.

'No wonder she could induce pill vein on the Golden Core Congealing Pills!' he understood inwardly.

It was common for Alchemists to own their special fire to assist their alchemy practice. With better flame, they will achieve better results from their refining session and compensate for an alchemist's shortcomings in terms of cultivations level.

That's why Grand Alchemist Chen Xi had instantly recognized the superiority of Snowy's flame.

Due to shared sense, he could also felt the fear its flame had toward Myriad Flames; it was akin to how a prey cowered at the presence of its predator.

Such an incredible flame could enable Snowy to perform many miraculous feats in the future despite her weak cultivation base. However, if seen from a different perspective, it can be called a cheat.

Despite this, Grand Alchemist Chen Xi didn't show any disdain when he watched Snowy. Instead, he felt more respect for her.

Although the Myriad Flame was indeed marvelous, Snowy, who could handle the flame with ease despite still in the Qi Transformation stage, was also incredible!

In the same cultivation with Snowy, any other alchemist would only be burnt to death if they tried to do what Snowy do.

His attention shifted back to Snowy as she ready to proceed to the next step.

Snowy's movements became swifter and swifter. The high heat rising from the cauldron seemingly didn't bother her at all. 

Chen Xi couldn't help but compare her to any other alchemist he knew.

Only she could still be cool and nonchalant in the front of such high heat. Others would surely have been drenched with sweat by now.

Snowy's action was increasingly intense.

It felt like a blur to the eyes of others. The rapid speed at which Snowy was moving caused even the experienced Chen Xi felt as if he was unable to follow her moves.

This was because he had to carefully observe each move that Snowy made and understand the rationale and logic behind each and every move.

If he could learn one or two moves, it will be enough for him to study for quite a while and tremendously increase his own ability as an alchemist.

He felt so delighted by the fact that he had hurriedly come to visit Feng Family after exiting seclusion. This was an opportunity that, if missed, would make him regret for a lifetime.

Bzzt, bzzt, bzzt.

Flames continuously flickered as Snowy controlled it using her spiritual sense.

Sometimes the flames would be extremely strong, while at other times, they would appear very weak.

It wasn't that she had a bad job controlling her flames. 

On the contrary, this was proof that the level of control she had over the intensity of the flames had reached the level unimaginable by other alchemists.

Not long after, the cauldron suddenly trembled. 

'Is she going to be failed?' 

Chen Xi had seen this occurrence many times throughout his career as an alchemist; the cauldron might be exploded any time soon.

Madam Feng and Elder Yang also had worried expressions on their face.

Only Feng Xue who still calm and unperturbed by the happening.

Unexpectedly, the cauldron ceased to tremble, and steam rose, enveloping its body.

This sudden change made them exhaled a relieved sigh.

Although they didn't know whether she was successful or not, at least their confidence was higher now.

Snowy didn't immediately lift the lid of the cauldron as if she was waiting for something.

Her gaze was still sharply fixed at the cauldron.

Rumble, rumble, rumble. The sky rumbled, and the cloud gathered above the City Lord's mansion.

"W-what happened?" Madam Feng's voice shook; she was frightened by the changes in the sky.

"The heavenly medicine inducing flame tribulation!" roared Grand Alchemist Chen Xi.

Heavenly medicine! 

A Heaven-rank medicine was about to complete!

No one could utter any words; their expression turned grave.

The flame tribulations upon the heavenly medicine. If the alchemist couldn't handle the wrath of this flame, then in the best scenario, the cauldron could be destroyed. The worst scenario would be dead from being burnt to crisp.

Snowy stormed out from the refining room toward the open space, bringing the cauldron with her. The others quickly followed from behind.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The tribulation finally came down in a grandiose manner. The moment it appeared, it seemed to immolate the entire sky.

"Heavenly Flame! It was Heavenly Flame!" Grand Alchemist Chen Xi's face lost its color when he saw the color of the Sky.

How can he not be? It was one of the strongest flame tribulations recorded in history.

Only the like of Karmic Flame, Void Devouring Flame, or any surreal flame mentioned in the legend could top this flame tribulation.

"Quickly evacuated all people from the mansion!" 

Feng Xue was the first who regained her wits after seeing the tribulation came.

Although she completely trusted Snowy's ability, Feng Xue still needed to take precautions if the thing accidentally went wrong.

In this way, even if something were going to happen, the guilt in Snowy's heart would be lessened since nobody would be hurt.

"Wh-what happened to the sky?"

"Mommy, the sky is burning!"

"Is it the apocalypse? Will the world end today?"

The masses in Phoenix City were scared out of their mind to see the horror of flame tribulation.

The flame went straight for the Myriad Flame Golden Cauldron. When facing a tribulation of this level, both the alchemist and the cauldron had to tackle it together.

"Go!" But how could Snowy give this flame a chance to attack her cauldron? So, she released the Myriad Flame at this key moment as it went to meet the tribulation head-on.

Whoosh!

The Heavenly Flame, which initially came down overbearingly, faltered when it came across Myriad Flames.

And then, bizarre and unthinkable events happened right in front of many eyes.

The Heavenly Flames suddenly returned back to the sky at an even faster speed than when it descended as if it was a mouse chased by a cat. 

The Myriad Flame, of course, wouldn't give its prey a chance to escape. It caught up with the Heavenly Flame in no time.

What happened next was rather anti-climatic.

Myriad Flames easily devoured the Heavenly Flames, and then the cloud began to disperse, clearing the sky once again.

The flame tribulation was ended just like that.

All people present stupefied by the turn of events.

Was this really a tribulation? 

Why did it look like heaven only appeared to give a free meal?

One moment the sky seemed like it was going to collapse, but in the blink of an eye, the sky is cleared as if nothing had happened before.

One cultivator in the Phoenix City's street couldn't help but mutter words representing what everybody thought. 

"What the hell just happened?"
