Heatwave was a step away from victory.
All that remained was to form the pill and call upon the Pill Clouds.
He used a powerful pill formation technique to gather the pills into a single sphere and then used his Qi to pull on the energy inside the cauldron and push it into the pill.
At first, all felt well. But as the energy entered the pill, it began to feel unstable. Highly unstable.
'Huh?'
The man didn't understand what was happening. He grew serious and focused on controlling the energy to prevent it from exploding right then and there. While he succeeded in controlling it, he couldn't pour it all into the pill at all. He knew very well that if he did that, the pill would explode right then and there.
"What's wrong?" Alex's voice came from a distance, one that he tried to avoid but couldn't. "Do you need my help?"
"Shut up!" Heatwave shouted. "Shut up and let me do my work."
