The two of them walked slowly to the alchemy furnace, ready to begin refining the elixir. A fourth-grade immortal fire was already burning within the furnace, and the elixir had already been prepared, waiting only for Xu Qingshan's command.
"Okay! Let's start!" Xu Qingshan said excitedly.
Lu Qing'an began to pretend to be busy, but in fact he glanced at Du Weiwei from time to time.
The real ability he wanted to show was not to be too far ahead of Du Weiwei. His original goal was to be better than Du Weiwei.
Therefore, he planned to be perfunctory in the early stage of alchemy, pay more attention to Du Weiwei's alchemy situation, and see her specific alchemy methods and techniques. When Du Weiwei failed to condense the pill, he would evaluate the quality of the pill that Du Weiwei had refined. Then he would use special means to reverse the quality of the final pill.
If other people knew about this method, they would definitely say that it would be impossible to succeed. However, the pills he had refined over the years were almost all of top quality, so success would be easy for him.
Therefore, in the eyes of Xu Qingshan and others, the alchemy competition at this moment showed two completely different states: one person's technique was fluent and progress was smooth; the other person seemed busy and unfamiliar, and had low efficiency.
"It seems that this young man does not have much experience in alchemy." Xu Qingshan frowned slightly as he looked at Lu Qing'an who was refining the elixir slowly.
Seeing this, Zhen Yongfu thought to himself that An Ge had started his performance again.
To outsiders, there was no sign of acting. He had known Lu Qing'an for a long time, and he had never seen his good brother show the slightest sign of panic.
No matter what happened, the more dangerous it was, the calmer he was, a calmness that was extremely counterintuitive.
His current appearance was completely different from the Lu Qing'an he remembered.
That's acting.
And he once again deceived this eighth-grade immortal-level alchemist.
"This is normal." Murong Yingxue looked at Lu Qing'an who was a little flustered, and felt more confident in her heart.
Deep theoretical knowledge and the ability to control fairy fire mainly depend on talent.
As for alchemy skills, they place more emphasis on hard work. Lu Qing'an was born in Shouquan and did not have much time to refine pills. In her eyes, this situation was normal.
"However, the skill of refining the elixir is quite solid, and there is not much loss of medicinal power." Xu Qingshan stared carefully at the situation inside the furnace and found that Lu Qingan's busy figure often blocked his sight, but he could occasionally see some details.
The medicinal refining power is pretty good, above average.
As for Du Weiwei, she was much stronger. Her techniques were extremely skillful, and the medicinal power she refined was pure with almost no loss.
In the end, it all depends on the details of how the two of them condense their elixirs.
Judging from his many years of experience and vision in alchemy, as long as Du Weiwei does not make any mistakes, the quality of the pills she makes will definitely be slightly better than Lu Qingan's.
Lu Qing'an actually deliberately let the medicinal power of the pill be depleted. He was afraid that he would not be able to control it well in the end and would directly refine a fourth-grade immortal pill. That would not be as simple as having a slightly better quality than Du Weiwei's pill.
According to his understanding over the years, it seems difficult for other immortal-level alchemists to refine top-notch elixirs. The specific reason is probably that they cannot control the immortal fire as well as he does, and they cannot handle the details as well as he does. The most important point is that his special elixir-condensing technique seems to be more unique than those alchemists in the immortal world.
As time went by, Lu Qing'an, watching Du Weiwei from the corner of his eye, had formed a rough judgment in his mind. He knew exactly when her pills were formed and what their quality was. He had to admit, this Du Weiwei was indeed extraordinary.
Her technique was skillful and steady, her skills exquisite and meticulous. However, her control over the immortal fire was still lacking, and her pill-condensing technique had not yet reached perfection, which ultimately led to increased loss of medicinal power.
Therefore, he guessed that the quality of Du Weiwei's final pill should be medium-grade Immortal Grade 4. Although it was close to the top grade, it was still a little short of the right temperature.
After knowing Du Weiwei's specific strength, he stopped wasting time and began to strictly control his scores.
Proceed to the pill-forming step.
"Both of them are very good. Judging from their steps and control over alchemy, if nothing unexpected happens, the quality of the pills this young friend will eventually create should be able to reach the middle level of the fourth-grade immortal, or just slightly lower. Slightly above the lower fourth-grade immortal."
"And the quality of Weiwei's finished pills is at least stable at the middle level of the fourth grade of Immortal."
Xu Qingshan's mouth curled up slightly, he looked at Murong Yingxue and Zhen Yongfu, and expressed his judgment.
Although his words were subtle, they also contained a hint of boasting.
Murong Yingxue nodded slightly: "Teacher, you have good eyesight, it should be correct."
Zhen Yongfu didn't say anything. He knew his good brother's strength very well. When he was in the mortal world, his skills in alchemy and formation had already reached the pinnacle of perfection. Now he was performing hard and must be controlling the points.
It is very likely that she is still better than Du Weiwei.
It is very likely that the pills refined by Lu Qing'an are either slightly better in quality than Du Weiwei's, or that he can complete the pill refining faster than her at the same quality.
Just as Zhen Yongfu was thinking this, Lu Qing'an suddenly stopped refining the elixir. Almost at the same time, Du Weiwei followed suit and finished refining the elixir.
After the two stopped, their eyes met. Lu Qing'an had a gentle smile on his lips, while Du Weiwei showed some doubts.
How come he is one step faster than her again!
However, she had also secretly glanced at Lu Qing'an and noticed that he seemed a little unfamiliar when refining the pill. Therefore, even if Lu Qing'an finished refining the pill before her, the quality of the pill might only be barely passing the standard and would not be able to surpass her.
With her red lips slightly raised, Du Weiwei gently waved her fairy energy, and a hot pill flew out of the furnace.
