There are still two days until the start of the Central Plains Alchemy Conference.
The first two matches of the Danhui competition were unrelated to Qin Xin, so Qin Xin did not need to make any other preparations.
The third session of this alchemy competition is very important. The Tuocang Mountain Alchemy Academy and the Tianque City Alchemy Academy each sent five alchemists under the age of thirty.
The side with the most wins out of the five matches is the winner.
Moreover, according to Qin Xin's understanding, each match in this alchemy competition involved a branch of the Alchemy Academy as a stake, along with some precious pills and formulas as rewards for the winner.
The third round of the competition even offered the Rank 8 beginner-level pill, the Enlightenment Pill, as a reward.
As its name suggests, the Spirit Enlightenment Pill helps martial artists to more easily comprehend the laws of heaven and earth. It is of great help to those at the Dharma Aspect Realm and above, including the Earth Profound Realm and even the Heaven Profound Realm, in their cultivation process of comprehending the power of the laws of heaven and earth.
However, the refining of the Spirit Enlightenment Pill is extremely difficult, and some of its main ingredients have long been extinct. It can be said that each one used is one less available. Not only in the Yunxi Domain, but also in the other domains of the Tianxuan Continent, the forces regard the Spirit Enlightenment Pill as a treasure of their clans. It will not be given away casually unless someone has made a significant contribution.
After Yang Xiu finished arranging some matters for the alchemy gathering, Qin Xin returned to the alchemy room alone.
Before entering the alchemy room, Qin Xin also specially prepared ten portions of the spiritual herbs needed to refine the Wind Control Pill.
This Wind Control Pill is a mid-grade sixth-rank pill. After a martial artist takes it, their speed and reaction time will be greatly enhanced, significantly boosting their combat power.
Its price can reach ten high-grade spirit stones. Although it is a bit expensive, it is an essential pill for martial artists to go out and explore, and it can save their lives in critical moments.
With the guidance of Danqing and the evolution of the mysterious fragment, Qin Xin learned the refining process of this sixth-grade intermediate pill, the Wind Control Pill, very quickly, despite its complicated nature.
In just one night, Qin Xin completely mastered the fusion process of the Wind Control Pill.
During his first attempt at refining the pills, Qin Xin was not particularly familiar with the fire control array within the Glazed Myriad Manifestations Furnace. After making some minor mistakes, a portion of the Wind Control Pill within the furnace was completely reduced to ashes.
However, Qin Xin was not discouraged. Although he did not continue to try to refine the Wind Control Pill, he did use the Glazed Myriad Manifestations Furnace to refine some Primordial Chaos Pills in order to familiarize himself with the use of the furnace.
For two days, the flames in the Glazed Myriad Manifestations Furnace in front of Qin Xin never went out.
With the constant replenishment of his Yuan energy by the pills, Qin Xin felt a little tired, but the Yuan energy in his inner world did not change much; on the contrary, the Yuan energy vortex grew much larger.
Upon hearing the knocking at the door, Qin Xin held a pale purple pill in his hand, a smile appearing on his lips.
With Danqing's guidance, Qin Xin made significant progress in refining the Wind Control Pill, a level of advancement that could not be achieved solely through the evolution of the mysterious fragment.
After putting away the Wind-Riding Pill, Qin Xin immediately opened the door to the alchemy room.
After the previous incident, Ling Hanyan waited at the door without barging in.
However, when Qin Xin saw Ling Hanyan's somewhat unpleasant expression, he naturally guessed something. It seemed that the first two rounds of the competition at Tuocang Mountain Pill Academy were not very ideal.
"Sister Hanyan, what's wrong? Did you lose the first two matches?"
Qin Xin asked with some curiosity.
"The first time the dean refined a high-grade seventh-rank pill, the dean of Tianque City refined the same one, so it was a draw."
"As for the second competition, our Tuocang Mountain Alchemy Academy sought help from the Tianque City Alchemy Academy. They actually sent an elder who was a mid-level seventh-grade alchemist. Usually, someone of this level would already be the dean of a branch of the Alchemy Academy or the vice dean of the Alchemy Academy. It seems that all of this was planned by the Tianque City Alchemy Academy."
"So the final match depends on you. If you lose again and lose two branch academies in a row, I'm afraid that Tuocang Mountain Pill Academy will be overshadowed by Tianque City Pill Academy in the future."
As Ling Hanyan spoke, her expression showed displeasure. She had lost the competition despite representing Tuocang Mountain Pill Academy, and naturally felt some guilt.
Secondly, among the young alchemists of Tuocang Mountain Alchemy Academy this time, there weren't many particularly strong ones. Although both Tuocang Mountain Alchemy Academy and Tianque City Alchemy Academy officially sent two sixth-grade high-level alchemists, it's unknown whether they, like Qin Xin, were concealing their true strength.
The first two matches didn't garner much attention because these alchemists had already joined families or factions, so there was no need to recruit them.
However, the third event was different. There were four high-level alchemists of the sixth rank who were not even thirty years old. It could be said that this was the strongest generation of alchemists in recent alchemy gatherings. Therefore, many people hoped to make friends with these young alchemists.
When Qin Xin and Ling Hanyan arrived at the main hall of the Pill Academy, the deans and elders of the Tuocang Mountain Pill Academy and the Tianque City Pill Academy had already arrived.
However, judging from their expressions, the group from Tianque City's Dan Academy seemed to be enjoying themselves immensely, as if they had gained considerable benefits from the first two rounds of competition.
As for the people from Tuocang Mountain Pill Academy, their expressions were rather unpleasant. Yun Li, who was sitting next to Yang Xiu, also had a face full of anger, as if she was still arguing with the other party's alchemist.
Qin Xin glanced around and realized that he didn't recognize any of the three people from the Tuocang Mountain Pill Academy who were participating in the alchemy competition for those under thirty. They all seemed to have been transferred from different branch academies. However, he did recognize one of the women.
This woman's name is Mu Qing. Qin Xin had seen her before at the Dan Academy in Chiling City. However, to Qin Xin's surprise, she was actually a sixth-grade high-level alchemist.
Within the Dan Academy of Tianque City, there was a figure that Qin Xin recognized very well—Qin Fan of the Qin Clan.
"Qin Xin, if you can perfectly refine a mid-grade sixth-rank pill this time, we will have a 70% chance of winning."
After whispering to Qin Xin, Ling Hanyan turned and walked towards Yang Xiu and the others, while the participating alchemists stayed in the hall to wait for the competition to begin.
"A mid-grade sixth-rank pill?"
Qin Xin thought for a moment, then turned his gaze to the five alchemists of the Heavenly Palace Alchemy Academy.
Through his spiritual sense, Qin Xin could perceive that these people's strength was not as simple as it seemed on the surface. If he only refined a mid-grade sixth-rank pill, he would probably lose to them one hundred percent.
Winning or losing wasn't particularly important to Qin Xin. He only needed to refine the mid-grade sixth-rank pill; the rest was beyond his concern.
