Chapter 54: A trickle of water becomes a sea (Long chapter)



Qitian Seal.

The momentum is in harmony with the sky, magnificent and unique.

As a result, faint ripples appeared in the void, and the operation of the virtual spirit array plate stagnated and paused slightly.

Buzz! The clouds and mists dispersed, and Chen Sheng acted decisively. His powerful magic power poured into the Chi Xun furnace. This magic weapon burst into a brilliant light, like a falling star, emitting flames, and went straight to Xiao Feng.

"You actually have a way to disrupt the operation of my formation."

Xiao Feng's pride disappeared in an instant, turning into deep horror. Chen Sheng actually had a trick up his sleeve. He froze the movement of the virtual chessboard and rushed towards him like thunder.

The attack came too fast and violently, causing such a huge change that he had no choice but to push with both hands, surging his magic power, and hit the alchemy furnace hard.

Ding! Xiao Feng pressed his palms on the Chi Xun furnace. A huge force surged, breaking the bones in his arms. The scorching heat on his palms even emitted a meaty aroma.

"I will fight you till death!"

As he felt the pain, his face became extremely hideous, and his resentment towards Chen Sheng was so strong that it seemed to be condensed into substance.

"open!"

Chen Sheng did not answer. He raised his hand and the lid of the Chi Xun furnace flew up. A fire dragon rushed out and circled around Xiao Feng three times. The immortal cultivator from the borderland immortal sect was burned to ashes.

After the fight, Chen Sheng sighed and said, "The cause and effect have been resolved, so there's no need to talk about a fight to the death."

At this point, the Lei family's affairs were finally settled, and everyone had a home.

He flew on his sword, carrying the Lei family's big medicine back to the medicine house.

The border areas were bustling, and there were also conflicts among the geniuses in the Guangxiu Immortal Sect, but the atmosphere in the medicine house was peaceful.

The deacons and alchemists here are relatively idle. They work when they have something to do, and relax when they have nothing to do.

Dust Light Palace.

When Mr. Chen didn't return for two or three days, Xi Fu felt something was wrong. This journey shouldn't have been delayed so much.

Just when he was about to send someone else to get the news, Chen Sheng arrived. He couldn't help but sighed and said, "Why is it so late? Is there any setback?"

The closer it got, the more he feared there would be more trouble.

"The Lei family was caught in the vortex, and no one survived."

Mr. Chen told the story of the Lei family. The entire family was slaughtered, and the mastermind behind the massacre seemed to be someone from another immortal sect in the border area.

“They noticed.”

After Xi Fu heard this, his expression remained unchanged, and he seemed to know a lot of secrets.

"Yaolu, or Guangxiu Xianzong, is planning something."

This time, Mr. Chen couldn't help it and asked directly.

A powerful medicine actually caused the complete destruction of an entire small immortal cultivation family. What is the game among the immortal sects fighting for?

"Didn't I tell you a few days ago that I would give you a chance to join the circle? Now that I've got it, it's time to let you know."

Xi Fu revealed the plan of the Immortal Sect's top leaders, which was to be led by all parties and executed by Yaolu, to refine a furnace of elixirs to enhance the overall strength of the younger generation.

Golden Elixir, an ancient elixir for nourishing the essence, contains a trace of the immortal qualities of the golden elixir. Those who take it can hope to glimpse the golden elixir realm.

There is a rumor that the bulk of this furnace of elixirs will be used on the third master of the Law Enforcement Hall, and the head master is extremely concerned about this.

"The other immortal sects in the border areas don't want to see the genius of Guangxiu Immortal Sect become more and more powerful. Once they get the news, they will definitely destroy the plan for the raw materials of the Golden Liquid Pill."

Chen Sheng finally found out the root cause of the Lei family's destruction, which came from the golden elixir planned by the Guangxiu Immortal Sect.

The elixir owned by the Lei family was one of the main ingredients of the Golden Elixir. The other immortal sects were unwilling to let it fall into the hands of the Guangxiu Immortal Sect, so it encountered a disaster.

"That's right."

Xifu said silently.

"An opportunity to enter the circle should not be to distribute the Golden Elixir."

Mr. Chen is self-aware. The top leaders of Guangxiu Immortal Sect will only use precious medicines like the Golden Elixir on true geniuses.

The so-called enhancement of the overall strength of the younger generation refers to those who have the potential to take on the responsibility of the Immortal Sect in the future.

"The raw materials for the Golden Elixir are extremely hard to find. Except for the truly chosen ones, we have no chance of obtaining it."

Xi Fu nodded. The Golden Elixir was too precious and the outer sect had no allocated quota. However, he was not disappointed and was still very excited. He said, "We can be the ones to refine the Golden Elixir."

For an alchemist, refining such a precious elixir is itself a joyful thing.

"How precious are the raw materials for the Golden Elixir? How can I be allowed to refine it?"

As far as Chen Sheng knew, the planning of the raw materials for the Golden Elixir started at least half a year ago. It was time-consuming and labor-intensive and could not afford failure. It was necessary to find a suitable person to take control of the overall situation.

In the pharmacy, the only one who has this qualification is Mr. Shen.

"Mr. Shen will personally perform the alchemy this time, but he still needs three alchemists to assist. What we want to fight for is the position of assistant alchemist."

The opportunity that Xi Fu fought for Chen Sheng was to participate in the competition for three auxiliary alchemist positions as a deacon.

The competition for this spot is fierce.

After all, the opportunity to observe a second-level alchemist refining the top-level second-level golden elixir is very rare.

Moreover, I heard that this time the elixir will be refined using a rare water-refining method. Alchemists who are determined to make steady progress in the path of alchemy will strive for it.

“Is there a clear process for the competition?”

Mr. Chen had no reason to refuse, he was passionate about this alchemy.

Perhaps, he could get a glimpse of the path of a second-level alchemist from Elder Shen’s alchemy.

"The matter of alchemy can naturally be solved by alchemy."

Xi Fu introduced the rules of the competition, which was divided into two rounds. One was a free performance, and the judges would see the alchemist's basic skills and characteristics from the refined elixir.

The other round is to formulate a topic, and the judges will select the elixir to be refined and admit the best candidates.

There were occasional setbacks in obtaining the raw materials for refining the Golden Elixir, but finally, after a few days, they were all collected.

In the medicine house, a competition was held for the three positions of assistant alchemists.

The competition took place in the open air area of ​​the medicine house. Areas were divided into pieces, and many spiritual herbs were piled on the four sides for the alchemists to choose from.

The whole venue was very lively. Most of the alchemists from the outer sect had arrived, and even the alchemy apprentices came to join in the fun.

"This is the first time I've seen so many alchemists."

"Any one of these people can become a guest of honor in a certain immortal cultivation family."

"Master Xifu Alchemist, I heard that his method of controlling fire is exquisite."

"In the medicine house, there are still a few people who have special skills, such as Master Fei who is good at growing spiritual herbs, and Master Ding who is well versed in pharmacology..."

"Who is that very young alchemist? He seems a little unfamiliar."

"This is a first-level alchemist who has been promoted in recent years. He is a combination of the strengths of the three families and his ability is not bad."

All the famous alchemists in the medicine house were mentioned, among which three old seniors such as Xi Fu received a lot of praise.

Their reputation for alchemy over the past few decades is obvious to all and no one can slander it.

During the discussion, Mr. Chen gradually became the focus.

He looked very young among the alchemists, and the inheritance he carried was very special. He had actually received the true teachings of three families, which really envied others.

"I don't know how you persuaded Master Xi Dan to get you a chance, but fair competition depends on strength."

A middle-aged man in white stepped out from among the alchemists. He looked at Chen Sheng with sharp eyes, as if he wanted to see through the surface and see the other person's essence.

After leaving these words, the middle-aged man in white left. Then an old alchemist walked up to Chen Sheng and said, "Young man, we will soon know whether that road is feasible or not."

His expression was very peaceful, not as sharp as the young man in white, but there was no trace of favoritism either.

There was no beginning or end to the conversation. He just left after saying that.

"I think I'm competing for a spot as an assistant alchemist."

Mr. Chen was confused by the two alchemists. Although they seemed to be talking about the Golden Elixir, he always felt that there was something hidden.

However, some key information is missing and a logical chain cannot be formed.

"This young man must be Mr. Chen."

Mr. Shen was in charge of the medicine house and presided over the internal selection.

He knew something about Mr. Chen. When the election for the deacon of the medicine house was held, many personal relationships were involved. He defeated Luo Jiaoyuan, who had Jia Ping as his backer, and officially took up the position.

This time, Xi Fu had to sacrifice his pride to compete with him for an internal position as an assistant alchemist.

During the conversation with Xi Fu, he learned that Master Ding Dan and Master Fei Dan had actually passed on all their inheritance to this young man.

From that time on, he was impressed by Mr. Chen and thought he was a man with charisma.

Otherwise, why would so many elderly people be willing to stand up for him?

There were many thoughts in his mind, but they only lasted for a moment. After looking at Chen Sheng, Mr. Shen stopped paying attention and announced the rules of the competition. He said, "In the first round, you can take the spiritual herbs as you like. Let's start."

There is nothing fancy about it. Alchemy is a technical profession and ultimately the winner is decided in the art of making elixirs.

As soon as the words fell, the alchemists started to move and walked towards the spiritual herb selection tables on the four sides.

They had already made a plan before the game, and they were very efficient and concise.

"I refined the Huilong Pill."

The same was true for Chen Sheng. He chose to refine a first-grade mid-quality elixir. It did not have too many special features, but it was stable and dependable, and it emphasized basic skills the most.

Having inherited most of Master Fei's inheritance, he was more decisive and confident than many other alchemists in selecting spiritual herbs, and he picked out the best ones right away.

"Start refining the elixir."

After returning to the alchemy area, Chen Sheng brought out the Chixun furnace, placed it on the ground, and it became ten feet high.

He ignited the gas into fire and lit the alchemy furnace. Immediately, a raging flame illuminated all directions, and the entire furnace wall was also burned red.

One after another, the spiritual herbs were thrown into the alchemy furnace. Chen Sheng carried out this step slowly and confidently, with a unique rhythmic beauty.

call.

Chen Sheng has become extremely proficient in the eight methods of controlling fire. He controls the temperature of the furnace just right. He refines the spiritual herbs according to their characteristics, and soon, groups of clear and pure medicinal liquids are sealed for future use.

At this time.

"clang!"

A strange sound came from the side. Chen Sheng looked and saw that it was the middle-aged man in white. He slapped the alchemy furnace with one hand, which was glowing with red gold. The world inside the furnace underwent earth-shaking changes.

The clouds are rising and the flames are rushing up.

The spiritual herbs that floated in the furnace lost their shapes, and the impurities were crushed in an instant, turning into balls of pure medicinal liquid.

His progress in alchemy increased dramatically, and he reached the stage of integrating pharmacology.

“Clatter…”

On the other side, a strange phenomenon occurred. When Chen Sheng looked again, it was the old man who had said the inexplicable words before. His five fingers were like strings of a musical instrument, brushing them continuously.

In the alchemy furnace, the surging fire became as gentle as water, and it circulated according to his will, hitting the spiritual herbs in waves, extracting pure medicinal liquid.

Like the young man in white, he quickly entered the stage of integrating pharmacology.

"The secret art of alchemy?"

Chen Sheng murmured to himself. From Xi Fu, he learned that there are secret techniques in alchemy that can provide great assistance when refining the elixir.

Obviously, some of the alchemists present mastered the secret art of alchemy.

After just one glance, he withdrew his gaze and stopped paying attention. The essence of the secret art of alchemy was to serve the purpose of refining the elixir.

Although he did not have the secret art of alchemy, he mastered the Eight Methods of Controlling Fire, which were ever-changing and had been practiced to the extreme, and could respond to ever-changing situations with the same technique. That was the first-rate method of alchemy, and there was no need to envy others.

"What am I worried about? You don't need to worry about Chen Xiaoyou's character at all."

As soon as the secret alchemy technique was revealed, Xi Fu looked towards Chen Sheng, fearing that he would be deceived by the appearance and lose his composure.

Facts have proved that he was really overthinking it. Chen Sheng's mind is extremely stable and his heart of Taoism is indestructible. He will not be disturbed by external things.

"That's how it should be. If you have something to hold on to in the way of alchemy, you won't be afraid of all kinds of changes."

Master Fei was also very happy to see that Chen Sheng's state of mind was unshakable. He did not have much advantage in the way of alchemy, but by mastering the advantages and disadvantages of spiritual herbs, he could also rank among the top alchemists in Yaolu.

If you do it to the extreme, even the slightest advantage can turn the situation around.

"The extraction of spiritual herbs is perfect."

Chen Sheng has a firm mind and is the type of person who can remain calm the more noisy the situation is.

After seeing the secret techniques of alchemy, he instead strived to pay attention to details to the extreme, accumulating advantages bit by bit, and once a torrent was formed, he would be able to defeat his opponent.

He controlled the fire perfectly, and the characteristics of various spiritual herbs emerged in his mind. He used the appropriate temperature to extract them one by one.

After completing this step, the next step is the integration of pharmacology.

Master Ding’s useless pills were not eaten in vain. After he experienced it personally, it was directly imprinted in his bones.

At this moment, all kinds of pharmacology were manipulated by him like weaving a piece of heavenly clothing, every strand of it revealed an exquisite charm.

He did not rush this process, but simply displayed his understanding of pharmacology over the years.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! All around, the alchemists have already entered the stage of nurturing the prototype of the elixir.

They either use secret methods or unique techniques to change the environment inside the furnace and advance time.

Then, gusts of medicinal scent rushed out of the furnace cover, gathered into belts of clouds and smoke, and intertwined with each other, filling the entire medicine hut with a strange fragrance.
