Artifact embryo, a surprise from Xiao Tang
The scene of Lu Wei breaking the pill really shocked everyone.
The crowd exploded with a loud noise and began to whisper.
"Is she crazy?"
"It has come to this point, what stimulated her to be so upset!"
"Is she just throwing in the towel because of too much pressure?"
"I thought she would give us a surprise even if she is not a dark horse, but now it seems that I thought too much."
The long-bearded old man on the cloud was so surprised that he almost pulled his beard off, and his eyes widened, "What is she doing? Is this a new method of refining pills that I have never seen before?"
The main thing is that your pills are gone.
The most stable and expectant person was the old woman. She observed carefully for a while, then slowly sat back with her body leaning forward.
"This should also be a magical method of refining the elixir. Look at her, the elixir is broken, but the elixir fire is still there, and there is a faint white powder floating above the elixir fire. Rather than saying that she is breaking the elixir, it is better to say that she just broke the shape of the elixir and turned it into powder again."
"But others have already condensed the elixir, breaking the elixir and condensing it again, she is equivalent to destroying half of her previous process." The black-faced man said calmly.
"Let's not talk about what this young man is thinking, the main thing is, why is there another magic pill? When have magic pills been wholesaled these days? Or are the rumors a few days ago true, and the Qin and Fang families really had a dispute in the Yingzhou secret realm, and the source of the dispute was a magic pill secret book?" The old man with a long beard gossiped.
This is really very likely.
Otherwise, it can't explain why no one in the entire conference refined a magic pill, not even the young man from the Leng family, but the Qin and Fang families refined it. The biggest possibility is that both of their families have seen the magic pill secret book, and the things in it have been passed down.
The president of the Alchemy Association was dissatisfied with Qin Ruqing's flattery before, but now it seems that he was slapped in the face. His face changed color, but because of his dark complexion, it was hard to see.
Of course, he didn't stubbornly insist on his own opinion, but he felt a little embarrassed in front of his two old friends. He couldn't help but curse the Fang family in his heart:
What a bunch of idiots! A lousy sword refiner came to refine pills, got a magic pill secret book, and still hasn't made any achievements in the alchemy to this day... If you know what's going on, you should hand over the magic pill secret book to the Alchemy Association. In this way, the noble families under the name of our Alchemy Association will definitely protect you, and the Qin family will not be allowed to get involved. How could it be like today, with a bad reputation in the city!
Below, Qi Rong opened his mouth slightly, and didn't understand Lu Wei's behavior at all. But thinking of the smile that the third sister gave them just now, and the fact that her younger sister said that the third sister had a trump card, she suppressed her temper.
Prudence and caution have always been the synonyms of the third sister. She must have her own reasons for breaking the pill.
Qin Ruqing didn't say anything, but frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.
The buzzing crowd became quieter. Many of those who could watch the alchemy competition today were quite capable, not to mention that there were some players from aristocratic families who had just finished refining pills. They were both strong and far-sighted.
As expected, someone suggested that Fang Yuanxin and Qin Luwei might be using a special method to refine the miraculous pill.
"Magic elixir? I've only heard of this rare thing in elixir books, but I've never seen anyone refine it."
"So two of them appeared at once, could they have refined the same kind of magic elixir?"
"That's definitely not the case, the refining methods are different, but it's really too coincidental that the Qin and Fang families refined the magic elixir at the same time. It reminds me of the three questions that Fairy Ruqing asked the Fang family, which caused a big uproar in the city before... Could the Fang family have really obtained some magic elixir secret book in the Yingzhou secret realm?"
"It's really possible, and today's scene almost proves that the magic elixir secret book has been in the hands of both Ancestor Fang and Ancestor Qin at the same time. If it's really like what the Fang family said, they were separated in the secret realm, and the Qin family's ancestor has never seen the magic elixir secret book, then how did the Qin family know the magic elixir recipe now?"
"The predecessor of Nanling Qin's family is Yingzhou Qin's family, right? They were a big family in Yingzhou in the past. Their ancestors had the existence of Yuanying Patriarch. It's not strange that they know one or two recipes of magic pills, right?"
"Alas, there is still no evidence for this. It's hard to say, hard to say!"
Qi Rong heard their conversation and felt relieved. It turned out that the third sister was refining the magic pill. He tilted his head towards Qin Ruqing and said in a voice transmission:
"Sister, does our family have that magic pill secret book?"
Qin Ruqing curled her lips, "It would be great if there was!" If there really was that magic pill secret book, why would the Qin family be so destitute before?
According to the ancestor, the magic pill secret book stayed in the hands of Patriarch Yingkun for too short a time. He only glanced at a few pill recipes quickly. Before he could see it clearly, he turned around and was stabbed in the back by Patriarch Fang who was traveling with him.
Therefore, apart from a few extremely difficult recipes that the Qin family could not use at their current level, the secret book of divine pills was of no use to the Qin family at all, and even brought disaster to the Qin family.
Qi Rong: "It's not really in the hands of the Fang family, is it?"
"It must have been in the hands of the Fang family for a period of time, but as for whether it is still in the hands of the Fang family, it is unknown."
Qi Rong exclaimed, "Will the Fang family be willing to give this thing away?"
Qin Ruqing said vaguely, "That's not necessarily true."
Director Feng and the Fifth Feather, the bitch, both hinted that there was someone behind the Fang family, so it was not easy to act rashly.
But this existence that even immortals feared, could it be that the Fang family had just said so before? There must be a medium!
Boldly assuming and carefully verifying, it is hard to say whether the magic pill secret book is still in Fang's hands.
Qirong is a steely college student with little curiosity. Seeing this, he stopped asking and looked at the high platform on the left, "What is the situation of the third sister now?"
Qin Ruqing thought for a while and carefully evaluated: "She is in a more mysterious state, but has not fully entered it yet. It can be regarded as one foot in. I guess, when she can fully enter this state, the pill she wants to refine will be almost successful."
Qin Ruqing is still very discerning.
"Forgetting myself and no one, the pill is a resonance", is the realm that Lu Wei wants to refine, the True Spirit Pure Heart Pill must reach.
The True Spirit Pure Heart Pill has no grade, but its corresponding effect can be rated as fourth grade or even third grade.
When the ancestor mentioned it to her, he only said, "The magical thing about this pill is that even a master of alchemy may not be able to refine it, and a talented alchemist like you who has just started may not have no chance at all."
"To refine this pill, you only need to reach that realm. If you reach that realm, the pill will be successful. Otherwise, it will be useless no matter how high the alchemist's level is."
That's why the ancestor dared to say that with this pill, Lu Wei had a chance to compete with those alchemists trained in the aristocratic families with deep foundations.
Lu Wei gave it a try, but only after that did she realize how difficult it was. Forget yourself and nothing else, and the pill will become a resonant sound. What kind of state is called forgetting yourself and nothing else?
Lu Wei has used the secret method of clearing her mind to try her best to suspend her consciousness and maintain a calm state, but she found that this was still a long way from "forgetting yourself".
On the cloud, the black-faced president said, "Look at Fang Yuan's newly refined elixir. It requires a blood sacrifice and the elixir fire to be drawn out every half an hour. As for other methods, it is estimated that it is difficult to see with the naked eye, but generally speaking, the progress should be smooth... But the girl from the Qin family, I am afraid she has encountered some difficulties."
The old woman nodded, her eyes were also very sharp, "The elixir she refined seems to need to be matched with a certain realm."
This difficulty is directly more than one level higher.
Because realm is like enlightenment, something that is encountered by chance and luck, it is too difficult to deliberately pursue it.
How many times can a person have enlightenment in his life? Some people don't even have one in their entire lives. Even if they are masters of the alchemy skills, they are likely to fail if they want to refine a high-level elixir.
The old man with a long beard was only surprised by one thing: "What happened to the Qin family this generation? Why are the younger generation so radical? Forget about the first place on the gold list. As for the immortal seed, a little radicalism is acceptable. But how come Lu Wei has learned the impulsiveness from her clansmen? Alchemists need to be stable the most. I saw that the elixir in her furnace was moving a lot before. Even if she refines it safely, she will probably be third in the conference. Isn't that enough?"
Isn't that enough?
The old woman sighed: "You think it's enough, that's because you judge her by your standards. Her requirements for herself are different from yours, so why not give it a try?"
The old woman didn't think Qin Luwei was impulsive. On the contrary, she felt that she was one of the few alchemists of her age who could be seen as "stable".
After another half a minute, Leng Danqing, who was at the center of the platform, suddenly moved.
Her elixir fire suddenly became strong, wrapping the entire elixir, and the medicinal fragrance suddenly became strong. Soon after, the elixir fire shrank, and a round elixir with aura was suspended in the air.
Leng Danqing grabbed the elixir with her bare hands and put it into the top-grade jade bottle. Then he raised the jade bottle and said to the sky:
"Leng Danqing's elixir has been refined."
There was silence above the clouds, and after a while, a vague voice sounded: "Please briefly describe the name and function of the elixir."
"Gathering Spirit Pill. A fifth-grade elixir that can increase the chance of forming a elixir at the peak of foundation building by 20%."
There was no need to describe the function of the elixir in a long speech. But a concise sentence was enough to summarize everything.
A golden light fell from the clouds, and the golden light quickly absorbed the jade bottle. The ethereal voice said: "When the conference is over, the scores will be given."
Leng Danqing nodded lightly, glanced at the round platform, and knew that within one or two days at most, the refining of these people would be completed. Then he sat back on the previous round platform, adjusted his breathing and meditated, and waited quietly.
The most important thing for an alchemist is patience. Just before closing his eyes, he glanced vaguely in the direction of Lu Wei, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and finally closed his eyes, no longer paying attention.
After Leng Danqing handed in the refined pill, two other alchemists completed the refining. So far, there are only the last two people left in the Alchemy Conference.
And it's a bit of a coincidence that these two people happen to be from two clans that have recently been in dispute in the city, and they are also involved in legendary things like the Magic Pill Secret Book, so everyone is even more looking forward to it. Although
I don't know if there is such a legendary thing as the Magic Pill Secret Book, but since you two have chosen to refine the magic pill at the same time, and your families are enemies, it is just like the saying that you are chosen by heaven.
Without saying anything else, let's compare your strengths based on this.
Another half hour passed, Fang Yuanxin drew the pill fire for the last time. After the pill fire was successfully transferred, Fang Yuanxin performed a second blood sacrifice and sealed the pill back into the pill furnace. I don't know what secret method he used, his face was pale, and it was obvious that he had consumed a lot of energy. Fortunately,
the refining should have been completed. He opened the furnace cover and cast a spell to make the pill suspend. He said in a light voice: "Fang Yuanxin has completed the pill refining."
The same golden light sprinkled down and took away the pill that Fang Yuanxin took out.
Fang Yuanxin rushed to the clouds and explained: "This pill is called Guanyun, which belongs to the ranks of rare pills. It has no grade. Those who take this pill can detect the closest life and death crisis to themselves."
The golden light didn't react, but the crowd exploded.
Because this is the closest time for ordinary alchemy practitioners to the rare pill. In the past, they only knew that there was such a magical product as Qidan, but they had never seen it, nor did they know its efficacy.
Now, according to Fang Yuanxin, it can detect a life-and-death crisis? ! If a life-and-death crisis can be detected, can't it be resolved? Isn't this equivalent to saving one's life in disguise?
Although it is somewhat different from the trump card that directly saves one's life, it is already very rare to be able to do this. If this kind of Guanyun Dan can really be circulated in the market, I am afraid that a large number of people will be willing to pay a sky-high price to buy it.
Yunshang did not comment on anything. Now is not the time to comment.
Fang Yuanxin did not leave the stage either, because Qin Luwei was the only one left on the stage. Fang Yuanxin looked at Qin Luwei, and a subtle arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Want to learn how to refine Qidan from him? It also depends on whether you have the ability to do it!
With Fang Yuanxin's eyesight, he naturally saw that although Qin Luwei's current state was mysterious, it was far from the effect of refining a magic pill.
He proudly lifted his robe and sat down, with an expression of watching a good show.
Qirong also saw the corner of Fang Yuanxin's mouth, and his breathing became heavy with anger, but he knew that now was not the time to argue with Fang Yuanxin, "Sister, how is the third sister now?"
Qin Ruqing: "It's just one step away."
Before Qirong could show his joy, Qin Ruqing shook his head, "This one step is the difference between one foot in the sky and one foot in the ground, a qualitative change."
Qirong's heart sank.
Although Qin Ruqing doesn't make pills now, she was personally taught by the ancestor when she was young. The ancestor wanted to train her in the way of alchemy at the beginning, so she still has the basic skills and vision.
She explained: "The third sister is now outside that realm, and she is only one step away from entering, but she still lacks an opportunity. This opportunity needs to be found by herself."
Lu Wei on the high platform didn't pay any attention to the outside world. As Qin Ruqing said, she was already in a mysterious state, like a foot stepping in, but unable to enter.
Sweat began to slowly overflow from Lu Wei's forehead. The hazy thoughts shook for a moment... Why can't I reach that state? I have obviously achieved the withdrawal of consciousness. Isn't this enough to forget myself?
What does it mean to be selfless?
Lu Wei's heart was agitated for a moment, and she almost lost herself from the mysterious state. Fortunately, she had thought it through this time. She would burn her boats and make a desperate effort. Even if she failed, it didn't matter...
Wait, burn her boats and make a desperate effort? Did she burn her boats?
Lu Wei's consciousness fell lightly on the elixir dust powder that was nurtured by the earth fire. Although the elixir was broken, it was not completely destroyed. As long as the earth fire continued to nourish her, she would have a chance to rebuild the elixir when she reached the realm.
This was her hope, but now it seemed to be the crux of the problem.
To be selfless, one needs to be completely detached from the outside world, but she still left a trace of her mind on the earth fire, after all, she had to control the temperature of the elixir. Because of this trace of mind, she would never be able to achieve a state of selflessness.
But...if she hasn't reached that level yet and puts out the earth fire rashly, the medicinal properties and spirituality of the pill dust will be completely lost in no more than half an hour. Then this refining will be a complete failure.
Is there any need to hesitate?
Lu Wei's consciousness floated, and she cut off the last connection with the earth fire without hesitation. It was like cutting off the only weak but rare light source in the thick darkness.
The consciousness was completely dark and silent.
From the outside, it seemed that the red earth fire floating in front of Lu Wei suddenly went out, and the invisible pill dust fell back into the pill furnace.
"Oh my god, has this Qin family member given up completely?"
"Has the winner been decided? I won't talk about the first place, but she definitely won't get the first place, maybe she won't even get any results."
Failure in alchemy means no results.
However, above the clouds, looking at Lu Wei's condition, the old woman was shocked and murmured: "She really made a desperate move, it seems she succeeded..."
The old woman half-clenched her fist and placed it on her knees. After a while, her eyes regained their calmness and she said: "I want this young man."
The black-faced president and the long-bearded old man looked at her as if they had seen a ghost.
Grandmaster Yu Wen, who had long cut off all worldly ties and devoted himself to the pursuit of alchemy, actually decided to accept a disciple?
You have to know that she was only the grand elder of the Alchemy Association in name only, not because she couldn't be the president, but because she felt that the affairs were complicated and she was too lazy to do them.
The crowd below still had more negative voices, but in the midst of all the pessimistic voices, Qin Ruqing raised the corners of his mouth and said lightly:
"It's done."
If it weren't for the fact that things hadn't been settled yet, if it weren't for the fact that even if the third sister entered that realm, she still had a long way to go before she could make the elixir, and now she had only completed the most dangerous part, Qin Ruqing really wanted to clench his fists and jump a few times to vent his excitement.
This feeling is like a best friend suddenly becoming rich, and the words he had said before, "I'll support you when you're exposed," are really going to come true!
The rough Qi Rong couldn't see the change in Lu Wei's state, and he didn't know anything about the way of elixir. But he could sense Qin Ruqing's mood. Seeing her lips curled up when she looked at Lu Wei, Qirong's lips curled up as if spontaneously.
Qirong's brows were raised in excitement. Is the third sister going to succeed?
Before he could ask this question, a rumbling thunder suddenly sounded in the distance, and dark clouds seemed to gather in a certain direction in the east.
"Oh my god, what's that in the east!"
"There's thunder, it looks like a thunderstorm!"
"In the east... it's the Weapon Refining Square. Could it be that someone refined a weapon and caused the thunderstorm?"
Weapon Refining Square! In an instant, Qin Ruqing remembered a name, Tang Zifeng!
Xiao Tang!
He subconsciously wanted to rush over to see, but when he thought of his third sister, he stopped in his tracks. After careful observation, he found that the third sister was not affected by the thunder at all. She was still in a state of detached consciousness and mysterious selflessness.
Yes, with the sharpness of Qin Ruqing's soul, she could naturally see that Lu Wei was in a state of detached consciousness.
The examiner on the cloud was obviously afraid that the movement would disturb Lu Wei, so he raised his hand to set up a barrier, covering the round platform where Lu Wei was. The person who set up the barrier was naturally the Grand Master of Yu Wen Dan Dao.
She would not allow anyone or anything to disturb Lu Wei's current state.
Qin Ruqing was completely relieved when she saw this. "Third sister will probably be gone for a while. Let's go to Tang Zifeng first."
Qin Ruqing had just arrived at the weapon refining square when a strong thunderbolt struck right in front of her. It struck the black-haired young man... and the jade magic weapon in front of him.
The jade magic weapon was struck by the thunderbolt and made a clear buzzing sound. The jade surface turned black in an instant. It rotated and trembled, but it did not break.
The young man standing not far from the magic weapon seemed to be completely indifferent to the thunderbolt. He only had this magic weapon in his eyes.
His deep eyes were calm and focused. His hand seals changed. The inside of the jade magic weapon seemed to slowly overflow with golden light, and finally pushed open the black glaze on the surface, and finally it was completely golden.
It was like shedding a layer of skin and being reborn!
If the material of the magic weapon before the thunder tribulation could be clearly seen, it seemed to be "alive" after the thunder tribulation.
The feeling of jade disappeared, and the magic weapon was emitting a warm and moist luster like a moon halo. The lotus-shaped petals fluttered slightly, floating up and down. A magic weapon can reveal the vivid texture of life. It is like a beautiful woman with a veil, making people hold their breath and be fascinated by it!
This side of the refining weapon conference is completely different from Lu Wei's side. Until now, the first place has not been decided. There is only Tang Zifeng on the refining platform here. He alone enjoys the sight and scenery, and carries out the unquestionable glory to the extreme.
All the weapon refining judges looked at him with admiration and surprise. Grandmaster Minghua even stood up with his arms propped up.
"Artifact embryo, Zifeng, you did it!"
Artifact embryo, Grandmaster Minghua's voice was not loud, but somehow it was clear enough for everyone to hear. There was silence for a while, and then cheers like a wave of overwhelming cheers rang out.
Each of those weapon refiners looked crazier than Tang Zifeng himself who refined the artifact embryo!
Tang Zifeng, who was lifted up by cheers and honors, was exceptionally quiet. He walked over and slowly picked up the glowing lotus-shaped magic weapon, holding it in his hand with great care.
Tang Zifeng in black robes has a world of his own;
when he takes off his black robes, his world is bigger and smaller, and outsiders cannot get involved.
He holds a lotus-shaped magic weapon, and his black eyes search the crowd quietly, as if he is looking for someone.
He takes this search very seriously, like a puppy squatting on the roadside waiting for its owner to come home every day. At this moment, this thing means the whole world to him.
His black eyes fell on a certain place, and he trembled suddenly, and then became lively and bright.
Qin Ruqing seemed to notice the change in his eyes, and for some reason, his heart jumped. The sun was not very bright, but his cheeks seemed to feel hot. He
quickly shifted his gaze and looked to the side guiltily, but he still stared at the young man in black robe out of the corner of his eyes.
Qirong was more direct. He shook Qin Ruqing's arm and asked, "Well, sister, Brother Tang's... artifact embryo, is it not for you?"
Qin Ruqing actually twisted her head and twirled her fingers:
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Qirong swallowed, "But, the shape of his magic weapon is a lotus~"
It's made into a lotus shape, what's the difference between this and a clear indication?
