But......
What happened next left everyone present dumbfounded and shocked.
Originally everyone thought that Lu Jingzhi would be reduced to ashes under this powerful pill thunder, but the reality was quite the opposite.
Not only was he unharmed, but he looked even more energetic, emitting an indescribable powerful aura.
This was not enough, he actually took the initiative to fly into the dark clouds and enjoy the energy brought by thunder and lightning.
And in full view of everyone, he began to forge his body with thunder!
A quarter of an hour later, the dark clouds in the sky dissipated and the sun shone on the earth again.
Lu Jingzhi, who had kept his eyes closed, opened them and felt that his whole body was filled with an unprecedented sense of ease and comfort.
He stretched comfortably, and then, under the surprised and envious gazes of everyone, he walked back to the alchemy platform No. 8.
He reached out calmly and opened the lid of the Phoenix Furnace placed in front of him.
In an instant, an extremely rich elixir fragrance gushed out from the furnace like a surging tide, quickly spreading in all directions.
Just by taking a breath of the fragrance of the elixir, everyone present felt refreshed and relaxed.
"This... could this be the top-grade Tenglei Pill?"
"It's unbelievable! A person at the Xuanwang realm can actually refine the top-grade Tenglei Pill!"
Lu Jingzhi walked calmly to where the jury was, handed the pill in his hand that was emitting a charming luster to them, and asked them to rate it.
The five judges took the pills and examined them carefully.
Their eyes first revealed undisguised amazement, but then they fell silent.
After a long while, the five people picked up the brushes on the table and prepared to write scores on the paper specially used to record scores.
However, what is strange is that although they have been holding the pen for a long time, they have never written down any numbers or words.
The judge who was the royal alchemist turned around with a troubled look at the VIP seats behind him.
To be more precise, his gaze finally stopped at Emperor Tianxin, who was sitting in the center of the VIP seats.
Because they knew very well that if they gave a high score to the top-grade Tenglei Dan in front of them.
Then the elemental lotus as the prize for the champion of this competition must be handed over to Lu Jingzhi in accordance with the regulations.
But if this happens, Emperor Tianxin's previous plan might be in vain...
If I deliberately gave a low score, there were so many eyes watching everything.
Such despicable behavior will inevitably be despised and scorned by all forces in the Mortal Realm and various countries, and its reputation will plummet and become infamous.
At this moment, the emperor slowly stood up, his majestic voice resounding throughout the arena: "I hereby solemnly declare that Lu Jingzhi of the Alchemy Association and Tianwen of the Tianxin Empire are tied!"
Looking back at previous competitions, the Tianxin Empire has always been the one that has dominated the competition with absolute advantage. It is precisely because of this that they have the confidence to offer that extremely precious treasure as a reward to attract more talented and ambitious people to participate.
But who could have expected that in this year's competition, a dark horse with extraordinary strength would emerge halfway.
Moreover, it is the kind of existence that is completely dark and cannot be ignored.
"Humph, it's obvious that Lu Jingzhi won, how can it be a draw?"
Only a cold snort was heard, and the cold voice seemed to be able to penetrate people's souls and reach the ears of everyone present clearly and accurately.
The emperor's expression darkened instantly, and his voice became as cold and ruthless as ice: "Who dares to defy my will?"
"This emperor? Haha, what a majestic presence!"
Then, a wisp of green smoke appeared out of nowhere. When everyone looked closely, they saw Yan An floating down beside Lu Jingzhi like a fairy descending to earth.
She put her right hand on her waist, her chin slightly raised, her beautiful eyes full of indifference, and she looked at the emperor as if she was looking at a pile of worthless garbage.
