Everyone had no problem refining the liquid medicine, but problems arose as soon as they started to melt the liquid medicine. Even the slightest mistake would cause the entire furnace of pills to fail.
So this time, everyone didn't feel strange when they heard the sound of the furnace exploding. If it was too quiet, there would be a problem, and people would wonder if they were refining a difficult third-grade top-level pill.
Xiang Yidan was carefully refining the pills halfway when there was a "bang" in the pill furnace. His cultivation had just reached the middle stage of the fusion stage. It was for this alchemy competition that all the forces in Lingzhou focused on cultivating their core disciples, including Xiang Yidan. A lot of resources were invested in them, so he broke through to the middle
stage of the fusion stage smoothly. He had tried to refine this level of pills before the competition, but it was very good to succeed once in ten times, and it was still a low-grade pill, so he was calm about the current failure. Even if he failed three times, he didn't think he didn't perform well.
After adjusting his breath for a while, he started to refine the second furnace in an extremely good state. Xiang Yidan regarded it as a challenge to himself, so the surrounding environment did not affect him at all. He even thought of Gu Yao who was refining the elixir with him. His state was better than when he was refining the elixir privately.
The same mistake also happened to Ji Baize. Looking at the medicine liquid that exploded in the furnace, his face was extremely ugly. A more obvious error occurred just after melting the medicine liquid, and then it was out of control.
He couldn't help but glance at Gu Yao beside him, and found that he was constantly pinching the spiritual formula, his ten fingers flying, leaving only a series of phantoms. It was obvious that he was doing it very smoothly, unlike him who was careful and cautious, but still made mistakes.
Ji Bai Ze couldn't watch any more, so he turned his head back quickly, took a few deep breaths and closed his eyes. While regulating his breath, he replayed the entire alchemy process. He still had two chances, and he couldn't fail again.
The more he didn't want to fail, the more reality went against Ji Bai Ze. When the second furnace of elixir was melting, he skipped the previous mistakes and was halfway through, and then there was another "bang". This furnace of elixir was ruined again. Ji Bai Ze felt a surge of anger in his heart, and he wanted to kick over the furnace in front of him.
Elder Qin and others above sighed secretly. Ji Baize's mentality not only did not adjust, but the influence became greater and greater. They cast admiring eyes on Xiang Yidan on the other side. Regardless of whether he could make the elixir or not, Xiang Yidan's calm mentality surpassed Ji Baize, and he might be able to go further than Ji Baize in the future.
But thinking of Xiang Yidan's close relationship with Gu Yao, and Xu Chen coming from Dan Pavilion, they felt very complicated about Xiang Yidan. They didn't think he would follow Xu Chen's old path. After all, he was not alone, and he couldn't ignore his family and Elder Xiang of Dan Pavilion when he did things.
After feeling sorry for Ji Baize, they turned their attention to other disciples who were expected to succeed in making pills. At the same time, they did not reduce their attention to Gu Yao at all. They knew in their hearts that if Gu Yao could still make pills this time, his pill skills would indeed be ahead of all the Lingzhou alchemists. Among the Lingzhou alchemists, no one's pill skills could be two small levels ahead of the spiritual power cultivation.
After these pill refining sessions, they also found that Gu Yao was superior to others. In addition to the soul refining method he used, his soul power was also very rich. His control over the pill furnace was absolutely first-class, even surpassing the second-grade alchemists present. This resulted in his extremely terrifying pill success rate. So far, not a single furnace of pills has failed.
This is the innate talent, and Xu Chen relied on this person to return to the spirit world. This made them jealous of Xu Chen's good luck. He met such a genius who was one in a million, and surpassed all their carefully cultivated disciples.
Before Gu Yao succeeded in making the elixir, these second-grade alchemists were filled with deep jealousy.
They even subconsciously believed that Gu Yao would succeed in one of the three furnaces of elixir.
Some people failed to pass the test after three times of melting, and all of them exploded. They had to put away the elixir furnace and leave the stage, and they had deep respect for their colleagues who still stayed on the stage.
When they found out about Gu Yao's progress, they were also very surprised. They didn't consider Gu Yao as their opponent at first, and didn't think he was qualified to stand on the same platform with them. But in the end, they left first while others continued to stay. Their faces were a little hot.
Many alchemists in Lingzhou hoped that Gu Yao would fail, but it didn't happen. When the buzzing sound came out from the alchemy furnace, everyone knew that Gu Yao had maintained his 100% success rate until the end. The alchemists and monks from other states stared at the alchemy furnace in front of him excitedly, waiting for the pills to spray out.
"Here they come, here they come!"
"Nine! There are actually nine Breaking Evil Pills! Master Gu is simply amazing!"
"Did you see the quality?"
"I saw it, there are four middle-grade pills and five low-grade pills, it's amazing!"
Tian Feirong and the fat man almost cheered excitedly, even so, they waved their arms towards Gu Yao on the stage several times, Gu Yao is awesome!
After this competition, who else in Lingzhou can say something to belittle Gu Yao? Now this result is Gu Yao's most powerful counterattack.
The alchemist in Lingzhou was in a very complicated mood. He didn't expect that he really made the pill, and he didn't expect that he really persisted to the end.
Gu Yao didn't care about the pills he produced. He grabbed two pills and swallowed them to recover the excessive spiritual power and consciousness.
Maybe he was distracted by Gu Yao's situation, but at the moment when Gu Yao produced the pill, Ji Baize's last batch of pills failed with a "bang".
He turned around and saw Gu Yao was finishing collecting the pills. His face was even paler than Gu Yao's who had consumed too much. He didn't even clean up the residue after the pills exploded in the pill furnace. He rolled them into the storage ring and left the stage.
Also successful was the alchemist who was in the late stage of fusion. He also came from Tianluo Sect. This was his last time to participate in the alchemy competition because his bone age was about to reach the limit.
However, everyone with eyes saw that the number and quality of his pills were not as good as Gu Yao's.
Xiang Yidan persisted to the end with the third furnace of pills and harvested three low-grade pills. Before others could react, he, who usually showed little expression, smiled widely.
The complexity of the Dan Pavilion disciples' feelings towards him was second only to Gu Yao. Originally, because of jealousy and his close relationship with Gu Yao, the Dan Pavilion disciples of the same generation were very repulsive to him. But now, when other Dan Pavilion disciples failed, his success undoubtedly saved face for Dan Pavilion. Logically, they should be happy.
But when they thought that the honor came from this person, they felt a little uncomfortable accepting it.
Dan Master Shan looked at Xiang Yidan and smiled, "Yidan is a good kid. He has grown up under your eyes."
Dan Master Dai said with satisfaction, "Yidan is always very calm and focused on alchemy. The future of Lingzhou still depends on these young alchemists."
Elder Qin and other second-grade alchemists also nodded, looking at Xiang Yidan with kind and tender eyes. Elder Xiang, who was in Dan Pavilion, was also very satisfied with Xiang Yidan's performance this time. He knew Xiang Yidan's strength best, and this time he definitely performed exceptionally well.
Although Gu Yao was more outstanding, he knew that Xiang Yidan had made some progress on his original basis, which was a good thing.
If you only know how to stare at others, unless you are always the leader, it is easy to be left behind.
When Gu Yao finished regulating his breath, this round of eliminations also entered the final stage. The alchemists who persisted to the end either failed at the last moment or succeeded. However, those who succeeded were all rare.
For example, although Ji Baize was very famous in Lingzhou, it was more due to the time he practiced. For example, the late-stage fusion cultivator surnamed Lu who finally succeeded in making the elixir entered the ranks of third-grade alchemists early because of his age, and stayed there for much longer than Ji Baize. Everyone in Tianluo Sect thought that Ji Baize's talent was better than that of Alchemist Lu. As long as Ji Baize was given enough time, it would be a matter of time before he surpassed Alchemist Lu.
But there is also a saying that time waits for no one.
Perhaps the next alchemy competition will be the time for Ji Bai Ze to dominate the field, but this time, not only was his brilliance overshadowed by Gu Yao, but even his fellow alchemist Lu was inferior to him. There were
also people in the Tianluo Sect who were communicating through voice transmission, so as not to be overheard by Ji Bai Ze's followers.
"The old ones are still the wisest. Senior Brother Lu is still Senior Brother Lu after all. At critical moments, he can hold his ground better than
Senior Brother Ji." "Yes, Senior Brother Lu usually doesn't show off, and he's not as good as others, but at critical moments, we still have to rely on Senior Brother Lu."
"That guy surnamed Gu is so weird, has he never failed?" "
Fortunately, there is only one of them. The other alchemists from other states have already stepped down. It is not their turn to stand out in this kind of situation. It is a great favor for them to come and observe."
Of the 31 alchemists, only 12 of them, including Gu Yao and Xiang Yidan, passed this round. Except for Gu Yao and Xiang Yidan, who were the youngest, the other nine alchemists were in a similar situation to Master Lu. They had practiced for a long time and were about to reach the thousand-year bone age. Of course, their ages were quite young in the entire Lingzhou and the spirit world, and they were among the most outstanding ones.
Even if the conditions for practicing in the spirit world were excellent, they could still reach the fusion stage within a thousand years. Even those in the middle and late stages of the fusion are undoubtedly the proud sons of heaven, not to mention that they have to invest a lot of energy and time to study the art of alchemy.
Among these eleven alchemists, two are from the Tianluo Sect, and only one person from the Lingluo Tower won. Gao Tian knew that he was not qualified to participate, and his master Shen Xingyi had just exceeded the bone age line and had no chance to participate in this alchemy competition. This is also the reason why he took the task and took Gao Tian away from Lingzhou, because once successful, the rewards obtained would not be less than entering
the alchemy There are two from Xianyu Mansion.
The Dan Pavilion also has two, and the other one is Xiang Yidan's senior sister. Xiannongmen quietly qualified three alchemists, who can be regarded as the biggest winners of this competition. Of course, this refers to all forces. For individuals, no one dares to admit that he is the biggest winner except Gu Yao.
