Some alchemists were dumbfounded when they saw the pills with their excellent luster.
He uttered a profound question: "Is that a top-grade elixir?"
"Not only is it a top-grade elixir, but its purity is also around ninety percent."
"The efficacy of this one pill is stronger than ten ordinary high-grade pills."
Who would have thought that this most inconspicuous old beggar could actually refine such a high-purity, top-grade elixir?
Minghua Daozun's face instantly turned liver-colored. He couldn't guarantee that all the pills in his batch would be of superior quality, let alone of such high purity.
Who exactly are this old beggar and his apprentice? How could they possibly refine pills even better than their own?
Isn't this a slap in the face to their Lingdan Sect?
They've got some nerve. They dare to offend even the Spirit Pill Sect. It seems they don't want to work as alchemists anymore once they leave this City That Never Sleeps.
"Master, why hasn't your alchemy tribulation arrived yet? We absolutely cannot be defeated by them." Mei Wushuang's face turned pale, feeling utterly humiliated today.
Now, only by relying on Daoist Minghua to defeat the old beggar and himself to defeat that silver-tongued woman can we succeed.
The old beggar was quite skilled, but how high could that young woman's alchemy level be?
Minghua Daozun's already liver-colored face instantly turned ashen. How could his disciple not know how to assess the situation?
How can he compare the purity of the old beggar's pills, which are over 90% pure?
"Quick, look at the sky! Another calamity cloud is coming!"
At this tense moment, someone suddenly shouted.
As expected, the calamity clouds piled up again, but they were not as thick as before.
Daoist Minghua breathed a sigh of relief. His tribulation cloud had finally arrived. As long as the tribulation cloud was here, he was confident that he could refine a high-grade pill.
It might not be as pure as others, but as long as the grade is up to par, it's not too bad. You could say that he's returned the alchemy furnace. He's not used to it, but he believes that with his status and position in the Spirit Pill Pavilion, many people will stand up to help him.
Just as everyone was filled with anticipation, a thunderbolt, as loud as a firecracker, lightly landed on Daoist Minghua's alchemy furnace.
Everyone looked surprised, even Wei Qinghe was quite taken aback. She had never known that the heavenly lightning of the Pill Tribulation could be... so adorable.
What help can a thunderbolt like a firecracker bring to the elixir?
"Don't worry, everyone, there's more..." Mei Wushuang was actually both disappointed and puzzled, completely unaware of why things were like this.
Wei Qinghe pursed her lips and remained silent, simply crossing her arms and preparing to continue watching the show.
However, the tribulation clouds that had been piled up above suddenly dissipated, and there was no more heavenly thunder.
"No, this is not..." Mei Wushuang was very unconvinced and almost shouted at the sky, but fortunately, Minghua Daozun stopped her in time.
"Aren't you embarrassed enough?"
Minghua Daozun was so confident and proud before, but now he is so disappointed and heartbroken.
He didn't even need to look; he knew his elixir had lost to the old beggar.
The city lord of the City That Never Sleeps simply used his spiritual power to lift up his pills.
"Ah, this..."
"It is said that he is an elder of the Spirit Pill Pavilion."
"He actually produced so many pills in one batch..."
"What do you mean 'a lot'? More than forty mid-grade pills, purity... purity of thirty or forty."
“This is a basic alchemy furnace. What do you all know? My master is used to using his own alchemy furnace…” Mei Wushuang tried to explain, but her weak explanation had the opposite effect.
Who among those participating in the competition didn't use a rudimentary alchemy furnace?
"The high-grade pills that person just now not only had high purity, but also numbered over seventy."
"They're all beginner-level alchemy furnaces, so how come they not only have high purity alchemy furnaces, but also a large quantity of them?"
"So the elders of the Spirit Pill Pavilion are nothing special after all."
"I remember they were making a bet just now, saying that the loser would have to run naked around the city that never sleeps twice."
Upon hearing this, the city lord seemed instantly interested, and she immediately used her spiritual power to lift up Wei Qinghe's pills.
"Let me, the city lord, see who wins and who loses."
She had clearly shown the elixir, yet she still insisted on saying it like that.
Just as Mei Wushuang was preparing to see Wei Qinghe make a fool of herself, she was so shocked by the pill in front of her that she was speechless.
"I'm not seeing things, am I? The purity and luster of that pill seem different from what I know."
"Although I don't know what grade it is, it feels like it should be very high and very good."
"I really like the fragrance of this elixir. I wonder if I could ask this young lady to help me refine some pills."
"My God, this must be a top-grade elixir!"
“I’ve seen it at an auction house before, and it’s pretty much the same as described in the book. This should be a top-grade elixir.”
"This little girl actually refined a top-grade pill. What kind of divine alchemist is she?"
"No wonder the city lord invited them, master and apprentice, to refine pills. It turns out that one of them can refine high-purity, top-grade pills, and the other can refine high-purity, top-grade pills."
"In all my years, this is the first time I've ever seen someone refine a top-grade pill with my own eyes."
"I really want to become her apprentice, but I don't know if she will accept me."
Mei Wushuang was so angry she almost spat out a mouthful of blood. A top-grade alchemist.
That ugly... girl is actually a top-notch alchemist.
How could someone so young be a top-tier alchemist?
"No, how could someone her age possibly be a top-tier alchemist?"
They went too far.
Wei Qinghe and Daoist Hongqi had both deliberately suppressed the quality of the pills, but for some reason, they still managed to refine them to such a high standard.
"You think everyone is like you, acting young despite your advanced age, but you can't even refine pills properly."
