In this way, after a round of screening, only a few people were able to advance to the next round of competition.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the second round of alchemy competition officially began.
What we need to refine this round is the second-level elixir, which is more difficult than the first-level elixir.
Although the refining steps are roughly the same as before, the gap between the first-level elixir and the second-level elixir is not small.
The competition had just begun and some people had to leave the competition sadly because they were unable to accurately control the temperature of the alchemy fire or made mistakes when adding the medicinal materials.
The atmosphere became increasingly tense, and the remaining contestants were all concentrating, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
After seeing this scene from afar, the elder of Danzong just raised his eyebrows slightly, without showing any concern on his face.
He walked slowly forward and stood steadily in front of Guan Muxi and another person.
His eyes, sharp as an eagle's, were fixed on the movements of the two men's hands, without blinking, as if he wanted to take in every detail.
Then, the elder took out a small and exquisite notebook from his arms, and took out a pen from somewhere like magic.
He began to carefully record everything he saw without paying attention to the people around him, and his concentration was astonishing.
He frowned from time to time, as if thinking about something;
Sometimes he would show a look of delight, muttering to himself, "Oh my, it turns out there's a way to do it! This way, handling these herbs really saves a lot of trouble! It's truly ingenious and ingenious!"
After a while, his attention was attracted by the fire control skills displayed by one of them.
The man danced his hands flexibly, and the flames were as obedient as docile sheep under his control, and the size and temperature of the fire were all adjusted according to his will.
The elder couldn't help but exclaim in amazement once again, "What a formidable fire control ability! This skill is truly the pinnacle of perfection!"
At this moment, the elder was completely immersed in the study of alchemy techniques, and was as happy as an ignorant young man who had just stepped into the gate of the Dan Sect and came into contact with the art of alchemy for the first time.
The disciples of Danzong who were also participating in the competition had their eyes wide open, their faces filled with astonishment.
They had never seen their elder, who was usually stern and serious, lose his composure like this. This scene was really unbelievable to everyone.
Everyone originally thought that Tianyi Sect's participation in the competition was just for fun, and they never expected that they were actually proficient in the art of alchemy.
Looking at the elder's attitude towards them, he was extremely respectful and cautious. From this, one could infer that these people's alchemy skills must be extremely high.
Guan Muxi was seen standing calmly in front of the alchemy furnace, manipulating the flame and medicinal materials skillfully and methodically, and every step seemed to be done with ease.
The elder of the Dan Sect beside her was like a busy little bee, constantly circling around Guan Muxi, sometimes getting closer to observe, sometimes asking in a low voice, as if he was full of curiosity and anticipation about her alchemy process.
However, this frequent harassment eventually made Guan Muxi feel annoyed.
So, she took advantage of the break in the operation, raised her jade hand lightly, and quickly drew a few strange runes in the air. In the blink of an eye, she set up a soundproof formation, covering herself and the second senior sister beside her.
As the formation was activated, the noise from the outside world disappeared without a trace in an instant, and it seemed as if only the two of them were left in the entire space.
"Oh my, now the world is finally quiet!" The second senior sister breathed a sigh of relief, with a look of joy on her face.
The elder of Danzong who was isolated outside was suddenly stunned and looked at the soundproof formation in front of him with astonishment.
He never expected that Guan Muxi could concentrate on refining the elixir and still have the energy to use such an exquisite formation to block out interference.
"Such a gifted person is really rare! When refining the elixir, he can still distract himself to set up the formation to prevent others from disturbing him. The young people are really to be feared!" The elder of the Dan Sect couldn't help but admire sincerely.
Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he quickly took out a small notebook from his pocket, picked up a pen and started writing quickly on it.
It turned out that the elder had already made up his mind to incorporate Guan Muxi's method of cleverly using sound-proofing formations in the alchemy process into future teaching content so that more disciples could benefit from it.
Without the Danzong elders coming to disturb him from time to time, Guan Muxi was able to devote himself fully to refining the second-level elixir.
Time passed quietly, and before long, she successfully completed the refining of the second-level elixir.
However, after accomplishing his mission, Guan Muxi did not show any sign of impatience.
It was because her second senior sister was still concentrating on refining the elixir and had not finished yet.
So, she glanced leisurely at the elder of the Dan Sect who was blocked outside by the isolation formation and had a look of thirst for knowledge on his face, and then simply lay down on the ground.
Then he gently closed his eyes and began to rest, quietly waiting for Second Senior Sister to complete the refining successfully.
Seeing Guan Muxi's calm and composed behavior, the elders of Danzong were shocked.
I thought to myself: What's going on? If the refining is complete, then hurry out! I'm still waiting here anxiously!
There are still many questions to ask!
Thinking of this, the elder of Danzong was so angry that he stamped his feet on the spot, but he could do nothing.
In the end, he had no choice but to turn his gaze to his second senior sister who was refining the elixir, and moved over to continue watching.
Faced with the sudden transfer of the Danzong elder, the second sister was speechless, secretly complaining in her heart...
I saw his hands flying up and down like a butterfly flying through flowers. His alchemy speed, which was not slow to begin with, unconsciously increased a lot at this moment.
For a moment, various spiritual materials kept changing their shapes in his hands, merging into balls of medicinal liquid emitting a rich medicinal fragrance.
Not long after, the second senior sister, who had been concentrating on her alchemy furnace, also received a signal of success.
She breathed a sigh of relief and carefully put the refined pill into the jade bottle.
Guan Muxi, who had been observing from the side, saw this situation and nodded with satisfaction. He waved his hand and put away the complicated formation he had set up before.
Then, the two smiled at each other, and when the elder of Danzong ran up to them, they each took out a pill that they had just refined and handed it over.
After the Danzong elder took the pills from the two people, he examined them carefully.
After a moment, he couldn't help but show surprise on his face, and exclaimed in admiration: "I really didn't expect that you guys could actually refine this second-level elixir so well!"
