During his time in the Alchemist Alliance, Xu Chang'an must have endured tremendous pressure.
After all, back in the Holy Sword Sect, Xu Chang'an was the head of the Pill Pavilion, and his word was law.
However, after arriving at the Alchemist Alliance, Xu Chang'an's alchemy skills were even inferior to some of the alliance's disciples, yet he held the position of elder. In order to maintain Chang'an Academy and prove himself, as well as to allow his granddaughter and disciple Wang An'an to hold their heads high in the Alchemist Alliance, he must have worked tirelessly day and night, exhausted.
Zhang Canglang looked at the twenty-one alchemists and said slowly, "For alchemists, refining pills is their job, but creating new pill formulas is not easy. Now, if any force fails to develop a new pill formula, they can choose to withdraw from the competition."
I'm quitting!
As soon as he finished speaking, a master alchemist raised his hand.
"I'm quitting too!"
The voices of withdrawal rose and fell, and soon eight alchemists withdrew from the third competition.
As Zhang Canglang said, alchemy is easy, but innovation is difficult.
With the withdrawal of eight alchemists, only thirteen alchemy factions remained to participate in the third competition.
"good."
Zhang Canglang said slowly, "Since no one has withdrawn, the third match shall officially begin!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh".
As soon as the timer started, the thirteen alchemists poured their spiritual energy into the alchemy furnace to refine the pills.
This ranking no longer considers the alchemists' refining speed, but rather the grade of the pills.
Only a third of the time had passed, and five people had already successfully refined the elixir.
These five people did not come from the three top alchemy forces. The reason they could refine pills so quickly was because they were all innovating first-grade or second-grade pill formulas.
Their goal was simple: to advance to the fourth match and showcase themselves to the top forces as much as possible.
As for the rankings?
In previous years, the rankings of the third competition have always been contested by the three top alchemy forces, who do not have the ability to create high-grade pill formulas.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
Soon, half an hour had passed, and the third match was already halfway through.
Four more people successfully refined pills, but the highest grade of the pills they produced was only fourth grade.
Only four people remained in the room. Besides the alchemists from the Alchemist Alliance, Medicine King Valley, and Divine Pill Pavilion, there was another alchemist who was concentrating on refining pills.
A murmur of discussion arose from the surrounding area.
"Who would have thought that in this year's third alchemist competition, someone would actually be able to compete with the three top alchemy forces?"
"That fourth alchemist seems to be from the Central Plains Spirit Medicine Sect!"
"Zhongzhou truly lives up to its reputation as the most powerful region in the cultivation world. It is a land of outstanding people and abundant resources, not only teeming with powerful figures but also producing a wealth of talent in the alchemy field!"
"Half the time has passed, and the aroma of pills is already wafting through the room. Judging from the spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from the pill furnace, the Divine Pill Pavilion should be refining a seventh-grade pill!"
"In this third match, the Divine Pill Pavilion will probably take first place again!"
"The Divine Pill Pavilion has been at the top of the rankings for over a thousand years. If they win the second round and the third round as well, then the champion of this year's Alchemist Conference should be a foregone conclusion."
"The Divine Pill Pavilion truly lives up to its reputation as a top-tier power in Central China!"
"The Western Regions Medicine King Valley, the Southern Border Alchemist Alliance, and the Central Plains Spirit Medicine Sect all seem to be producing sixth-grade pills. I wonder who will come in second place."
bite!
At this moment, the alchemist from the Medicine King Valley in the Western Regions suddenly opened the furnace, and three sixth-grade pills floated out.
The alchemist from Medicine King Valley packed the pills into a box engraved with spirit stones, but did not leave. Instead, he took out some rare and precious materials and put them into the furnace to refine pills again!
The Heavenly Origin Pill can help Chen Tianji unleash his trump card, the Five Elements Divine Light, without limit before he becomes a half-saint.
The Divine Elixir can help Chen Tianji break through to the Ninth Heaven Realm.
The three-attribute spiritual constitution is too wasteful. Breaking through to the eighth level of the Heavenly Realm consumed nearly 400,000 top-grade spirit stones. Chen Tianji dared not even imagine the number of top-grade spirit stones needed to break through to the ninth level of the Heavenly Realm. He estimated that it would be easy to completely drain the Chen family, a top-tier power.
Chen Tianji dared not think about top-grade spirit stones anymore, so he could only set his sights on the Divine Spirit Pill.
Previously, when Chen Tianji was in the First Line of Heaven, he swallowed three Divine Spirit Pills and broke through to the seventh level of the Heavenly Realm. His body had become immune to Divine Spirit Pills. If he wanted to use Divine Spirit Pills to stimulate a breakthrough in his realm again, he could only rely on quantity. Chen Tianji predicted that he would need more than ten...
The Divine Spirit Pill is not like the common Grade 9 pills such as the Tranquil Mind Pill. It is a unique secret recipe of the Medicine King Valley in the Western Regions. The entire Alchemist Alliance has less than thirty in stock. It is impossible to directly ask for more than ten Divine Spirit Pills. The best way is to obtain the Divine Spirit Pill through the Alchemist Conference. Of course, it would be even better if you could obtain the recipe for the Divine Spirit Pill.
Adding to the sarcastic remarks made by the Sikong Academy group towards their master Xu Chang'an, Chen Tianji will definitely get involved in the next three matches of the Alchemist Conference.
At this moment, the second round of the Alchemist Tournament is still ongoing. Three hours have already passed.
"It's done!"
At this moment, a master alchemist on the field shouted out.
The audience, who were already feeling sleepy, immediately perked up. Looking towards the source of the voice, they saw that the person speaking was wearing a long black robe with gold patterns, and was none other than the alchemy master of the Central Plains Divine Pill Pavilion!
Cheers immediately erupted from the audience.
"The Divine Pill Pavilion truly lives up to its reputation as one of the top three powers in Central China; its alchemists are indeed remarkable!"
"The Divine Pill Pavilion has won first place in the second competition. After the final rankings are tallied, it's estimated that the champion of this Alchemist Tournament will once again be the Divine Pill Pavilion!"
"This year's Alchemist Conference is the Alchemist Alliance's home turf. Does the Alchemist Alliance intend to continue the humiliation of the past three hundred years? To come in last place on their home turf would be utterly shameful!"
As Shen Dan Pavilion won first place in the second match, the leaders of the three top alchemy forces sitting at the head of the audience had different expressions.
The head of the Divine Pill Pavilion was a sprightly old man with a youthful face and white hair. He wore a long, bright red robe, and his face was radiant with pride.
"oops."
The old man in red clicked his tongue and said, "This old fellow is really clueless. Before we came to the Southern Territory, I told him that this alchemist conference of the cultivation world was being held at the Alchemist Alliance. We had to give the host some face no matter what, and aim for third or second place. How could he get first place again? He's really disobedient. Where does this leave the face of Alliance Leader Gongsun? When I get back, I'll definitely teach him a lesson!"
The powerful figures from the various top forces in the cultivation world who heard this almost choked on their saliva.
I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone this shameless.
Did Shen Dan Pavilion win first place in the second match, or did they hold back a bit?
If the Divine Pill Pavilion hadn't held back, would they have finished refining the pills half an hour ago?
These words may not be very hurtful, but they are extremely insulting!
