"Do you two have any objections?" Jing Li's words were quite arrogant. Since she had already made her decision, Ying Xun and Zi Shu could only nod to indicate that they had no objections.
"It's good that you have no objections. If you feel that you are not strong enough halfway through, you can take the initiative to admit defeat." Compared to Jing Li's cold and imposing aura, the Medicine Emperor was much gentler.
A jade slip appeared in front of Yingxun and Zishu, containing the recipe for the Ice Heart Pill.
The materials were quickly brought up, with three portions of medicinal herbs placed in front of each person.
"As for the timing, that will be decided by the Medicine King."
"Then let's do it for one day!" The Medicine King calmly set the time.
"Isn't it a bit long?" Jing Li said nonchalantly.
"It's a good opportunity to sample the specialties of the Pill King Palace and let everyone witness the alchemy skills of the younger generation."
The old fox seems to have a lot of confidence in his apprentice.
He had confidence in Zishu, but Zishu had been cultivating alone for many years, and he, as his master, was not very clear about his current level. Although the Ice Heart Pill was just an ordinary eighth-grade pill, its refining difficulty was at the intermediate level of the eighth grade.
The reason is simple: the main ingredient of the Ice Heart Pill is Ice Heart Grass, which is icy cold in nature. Ordinary flames are difficult to melt it, and given the incompatible nature of the two, the furnace could easily explode if not handled carefully. Therefore, refining the Ice Heart Pill requires a powerful and domineering flame, as well as immense soul power and perfect control.
However, judging from Yingxun and Zishu's expressions, there should be a chance of success, but it's unclear what percentage.
Two figures, one in black and one in white, turned around at the same time and stood in their positions, on the alchemy arena that Jing Li had just ordered to be built.
Neither of them rushed to refine the pills. First, they carefully checked all three portions of medicinal herbs and compared their names with those on the pill formula.
Both of them were very fast, and it didn't take long for them to stop at the same time. Two pill cauldrons, one white and one blue, appeared in front of Zishu and Yingxun.
The pupils of everyone watching in the square contracted, deeply shocked by what they saw.
If I'm not mistaken, Zishu's alchemy cauldron should be the Supreme One, ranked eighteenth on the alchemy cauldron list, its specific effects unknown. It's said to have disappeared two hundred years ago, and I never expected it to fall into Zishu's hands. However, given Jingli and the Throne's abilities, obtaining the Supreme One isn't that remarkable.
Yingxun's cauldron was naturally extraordinary, its entire body displaying a dazzling blue, like a crystal, resembling the ocean and the starry sky, exuding a chilling aura, exquisitely crafted. Its name was equally beautiful—Sea Heart—it was said to contain a trace of the heart of the ocean, making it remarkably effective in refining water-attribute pills. It was also a renowned figure on the Pill Cauldron Ranking, ranking fifteenth.
Ice Heart Pill is also a water-attribute pill, and the effects of Sea Heart are self-evident.
Jingli glanced at Haixin with a deep look: "The Medicine Emperor is indeed meticulous in his thinking, far beyond our reach."
"Palace Master is joking. This is Ying Xun's own opportunity, and it has nothing to do with me." Jing Li thought to himself that the old man was right. His own Snow Bone was only ranked nineteenth, while Sea Heart was ranked fifteenth.
As for the onlookers, they had already become numb from the stimulation. There were a total of thirty-five cauldrons on the Dan Ding Ranking, and six of them were here: Yu Zuo's Li Shang, Yao Huang's Xue Gu, Ye Xi Ruo's Lu Yi, Zi Shu's Tai Shang, and Ying Xun's Hai Xin. They were all ranked relatively high on the Dan Ding Ranking.
Indeed, the opportunities that geniuses have are incomparable to those of ordinary people like them.
Soon, streaks of flame flew from their fingertips and landed in the cauldron. Fortunately, they were only high-quality spiritual fires. If other strange fires had appeared, the continent would probably have descended into chaos again.
Neither of them rushed into refining the pills. Instead, they mentally reviewed the Ice Heart Pill formula several times and simulated the refining process several times. Once they were confident, they slowly began to melt the medicinal herbs.
As an eighth-level elixir, the Ice Heart Pill contains more than eighty kinds of herbs, of which eight are the main ingredients and the rest are all auxiliary ingredients.
Ye Xiruo and Si Hao sat down not far from the battle arena, and the servants of the Pill King Palace thoughtfully brought them spiritual fruits and tea.
However, neither of them was in the mood for eating or drinking. They were both staring intently at the two medicine cauldrons in front of them.
Both of them possessed ingenious fire control techniques. Zishu was practicing Jingli's fire control technique, and it seemed he had already achieved minor mastery. Yingxun's fire control skills were equally impressive; various medicinal herbs were continuously melting within that ball of azure flames.
The two of them completed the refining of the medicinal materials almost simultaneously.
"Your disciple is quite extraordinary," the Medicine Emperor sighed. The Pill King Palace was indeed a place where hidden talents resided.
"Not at all, not at all. This is all thanks to Zishu himself. I, as his master, haven't done much responsibility." Zishu is a born spiritual body, which gives him a unique advantage in both cultivation and alchemy. I didn't expect that Yingxun would be just as good. At such a young age, it seems that he has already been an eighth-grade alchemist for a long time.
The group from Medicine King Valley sat opposite Ye Xiruo and Si Hao. Just looking at their numbers, they absolutely overwhelmed Ye Xiruo and Si Hao.
Ye Xiruo felt a gaze fixed on her, filled with deep malice. She thought to herself, "The people of Medicine King Valley are so resentful. I haven't even said anything yet, and they've already got their eyes on me."
Forget it, Senior Brother is currently sparring with Yingxun, so she shouldn't cause any trouble.
The two of them refined the medicinal herbs eight times each. Even from such a distance, Ye Xiruo could feel how perfectly the medicinal properties of those pure liquids were preserved.
Si Hao only said two words: "Eighth rank".
"I believe many people have already guessed this."
"Eighth Rank!" Some people in the square exclaimed in surprise. As the saying goes, the layman sees the spectacle, while the expert sees the details. Those seated here were all old monsters, naturally knowledgeable and experienced. They could roughly guess the two's ranks as soon as they started fighting. But it was still just a guess. It wasn't until the first step was completed that it was truly confirmed: such young eighth-rank alchemists.
In today's younger generation, those who can reach the sixth rank of alchemist are already exceptionally talented. I never expected to see an eighth rank alchemist, and there are even two of them.
"Heroes emerge from among the young!" exclaimed Jianwang 3.
"Yes, this generation of young people are all very outstanding."
"To be born in the same era as such a monster, I really don't know whether it's a blessing or a curse."
"It all depends on individual circumstances!"
Even the old monsters couldn't contain themselves and began to sigh with emotion.
