Racing Against the Thunderbolt

The Heaven's End Pill, the last elixir refined by the Medicine King before his ascension.

Legend has it that this pill was no longer tolerated by the realms of the mortal world. Once the elixir was completed, a celestial thunderbolt would descend from the heavens, directly propelling the Medicine King into ascension.

The original text did not describe this event.

The ten years during which Xiao Jihan obtained the Medicine King's inheritance were glossed over in just a few sentences, presumably due to the changes brought about by Yan Shu, which altered the course of the story.

Yan Shu and Xiao Jihan followed behind the Medicine King, their expressions filled with solemnity.

However, the Medicine King, who was leading the way, suddenly halted his steps and looked at Yan Shu, asking, "Are all the preparations in place?"

Yan Shu was momentarily puzzled, "What preparations?"

"The ones for that," the Medicine King pointed towards the sky.
