“I didn’t expect that Valley Master Tang also collected the Mountain Melting Cauldron!”
Master Huan couldn't help but exclaim.
"It was just good luck that we met."
Tang Zhen smiled and then waved his sleeves again. Suddenly, a large number of medicinal herbs flew out from his storage ring continuously and circled above the stone platform. Judging from the number, there must be at least a hundred of them.
When these herbs appeared, a strong medicinal fragrance immediately filled the air. Obviously, these herbs were not ordinary things, and refining the so-called Fire Bodhisattva Pill actually required so many herbs. It was worthy of being a seventh-grade high-level pill.
Good luck? This line sounds so familiar! ?
Xiao Yuan raised his eyebrows but didn't say anything.
To be honest, he was not optimistic about this alchemy.
Three people who have never worked together before are trying to refine a pill together. If anything goes wrong with any of them, all their efforts will be wasted.
It would be better for him to refine it by himself, perhaps the success rate would be higher.
On the other side, as the medicinal herbs were summoned, Tang Zhen's expression became more and more solemn. He clenched his palms, and silver flames emerged. Nine fire dragons kept wandering in it, releasing an astonishing dragon power.
"Master Huan, take this pill. It will make the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire more friendly to you, so that you can stay in it for a longer time." Tang Zhen threw a silver pill to Master Huan, then glanced at Xiao Yuan and said with a smile, "Friend Xiao Yuan, you don't need this thing, right?"
Xiao Yuan nodded lightly. His soul was protected by the strange fire. The Nine Dragons Thunder Fire was simply a toy to him and could not do anything to him.
Seeing this, Tang Zhen also smiled, and with a flick of his finger, a silver flame flashed out, and then quickly drilled into the mountain-melting cauldron. With a puff, it turned into a raging fire. The nine little fire dragons in it also suddenly grew larger, and then kept wandering in the medicine cauldron, and the dragon's mouth opened and closed, spewing out silver flames.
"Now that everyone is ready, let's get started!"
Looking at the silver flame surging up in the medicine cauldron, the smile on Tang Zhen's face gradually faded, and he said in a deep voice.
As soon as the voice fell, a dazzling light suddenly burst out from his eyes, and he grabbed with both hands. The medicinal herbs floating in the sky suddenly fell down one after another, and then continuously poured into the medicine cauldron!
As soon as these herbs entered the medicine cauldron, the nine fire dragons came over with low dragon roars, and swallowed them up in one gulp. Immediately, the flames on their entire bodies suddenly became stronger.
While Tang Zhen began to refine the herbs, Xiao Yuan and Master Huan also gathered their minds, their soul power gushed out from their brows, and then, under the protection of their respective flames, they quickly entered the medicine cauldron.
As soon as the soul power entered the medicine cauldron, the two felt the terrifying temperature inside. Xiao Yuan was fine, as if he was back home, but Master Huan's face changed slightly. The Nine Dragon Thunder Fire inside was much stronger than the one in the previous test. Fortunately, Tang Zhen gave him a pill in advance, otherwise he would not be able to hold on for too long.
"You two, the first part of the herbs are almost refined. I'll leave the fusion to you!"
Shortly after the two people's soul power entered the medicine cauldron, Tang Zhen's voice suddenly sounded in their ears.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan and Master Huan both felt their hearts tighten. They kept recalling that part of the prescription in their minds and prepared to take action.
About twenty minutes later, the nine fire dragons in the medicine cauldron suddenly shook their bodies, opened their huge mouths, and groups of objects with extremely strong medicinal fragrance continuously spewed out from them.
These objects are all the remaining essence of the medicinal materials. Some are in powder form, and some are in liquid or solid form. At this moment, they are all suspended in the medicine cauldron.
"Do it!"
As soon as these pure medicinal powers, from which all impurities had been extracted, appeared, Tang Zhen's deep voice followed.
After hearing Tang Zhen's words, Xiao Yuan and Master Huan also took a deep breath, and then swept out their soul power. Relying on their respective knowledge of medicinal materials, they gathered all the liquid medicine on the prescription, and then wrapped it with their soul power. The flames of each other burst out, and then according to the instructions on the prescription, they began to slowly merge the extracted medicinal power.
The medicinal materials floating in the medicine cauldron were swept away by the soul power of Xiao Yuan and Master Huan. Both of them were veterans in alchemy and had rich experience. Although it was the first time they worked together, they did not make any mistakes.
Looking at the two people who had a clear division of labor and did not make any mistakes, Tang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately, he moved his mind and sucked another batch of medicinal materials into the medicine cauldron, and then refined them again!
On a platform not far from the stone platform, a group of alchemy masters looked at the pill refining that had already begun and quickly turned their attention over. However, when they saw that Xiao Yuan could actually fuse the medicinal power faster than Master Huan, their faces all looked a little unnatural.
Master Mo, in particular, had the ugliest look on his face. He had been arguing before, saying that Xiao Yuan was able to pass the test only by relying on the power of the strange fire. However, this scene was like a slap in his face, because he knew in his heart that even if he went up in person, he would never be able to keep up with the refining pace of Tang Zhen and a seventh-grade alchemist, let alone surpass them.
At the edge of the square, Tang Huoer stared at the stone platform without blinking. She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Xiao Yuan was calm and composed, and then she smiled and murmured in a low voice:
"It seems that Daddy's vision is quite accurate. This Xiao Yuan is an extraordinary alchemy expert! I just don't know if he can really help Daddy complete the alchemy successfully this time."
Refining a seventh-grade elixir is an extremely cumbersome task, and this so-called Fire Buddha Pill is an advanced seventh-grade elixir, so refining it is even more difficult.
On the stone platform, a silver flame was burning fiercely in the medicine cauldron. Low dragon roars could be heard continuously from it. The scorching heat directly caused the space around the stone platform to become slightly distorted. Many medicinal herbs were hovering above the stone platform. Occasionally, they would be thrown into the medicine cauldron at the wave of Tang Zhen's hand, and then swallowed by the nine fire dragons in it.
However, it must be said that the Nine Dragon Thunder Fire is extremely convenient for refining medicinal materials. The nine fire dragons are like nine miniature medicine cauldrons, which can perfectly refine these medicinal materials. Of course, Xiao Yuan also knows that these nine fire dragons are ultimately under Tang Zhen's control.
It's just that the latter has reached a very high level in terms of control over the temperature and flame, and his mind is divided into nine parts, yet he can still avoid making any mistakes. It can be imagined that if Tang Zhen really has the qualifications to become a pharmacist, his attainments in alchemy must be very high.
Of course, Xiao Yuan would not underestimate himself. Under the training of Yao Lao and Tianhuo Zunzhe, his fire control skills were also top-notch. Although Tang Zhen was also very strong, he was still a little behind him in fire control in alchemy.
This was the first time Xiao Yuan tried this kind of division of labor in refining pills, but he did not make any mistakes. His experience in refining pills was no weaker than anyone present, and his task was simply to fuse the pure medicinal power, which was actually about the same difficulty as refining a seventh-grade intermediate pill. With his current soul power, it was not difficult to do. As for the blazing Nine Dragon Thunder Fire in the fire cauldron, he did not feel any threat because he was protected by the strange fire.
On the stone platform, there was silence except for the sound of the burning flames. Xiao Yuan and Master Huan both closed their eyes and concentrated their minds on controlling the soul power in the medicine cauldron.
In the medicine cauldron, in the silver flames that were sweeping everywhere, a circle of dark golden light was faintly visible. Within this circle of dark golden light was the area covered by Xiao Yuan's soul power. Here, many successfully refined medicinal materials were gradually blended together at a slow speed under Xiao Yuan's exquisite control.
"puff"
Suddenly, a subtle sound was heard in the silent dark golden circle. When I moved my eyes over, I saw a drop of slightly colorful viscous liquid quietly appearing, and a strong medicinal fragrance continued to seep out of it.
"The first step of fusion alone took two and a half hours. This seventh-grade elixir is indeed extremely complicated to refine."
After fusing all the medicinal herbs into this drop of colorful viscous liquid, Xiao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, but then his mind tensed up again. He knew that this was just the beginning. Refining a seventh-grade elixir was just the beginning.
"Friend Xiao Yuan is indeed amazing. He has completed the initial fusion so quickly."
Tang Zhen's voice suddenly rang in Xiao Yuan's ears. Obviously, he was very surprised at Xiao Yuan's fast efficiency. After all, even Master Huan, the guest elder of Danta, had not yet completed the fusion.
But the more this happened, the more delighted Tang Zhen felt.
This proves that what Xiao Yuan said is true. His alchemy skills are much stronger than that of Master Huan. Maybe he is really going to break through to the advanced seventh level.
Xiao Yuan smiled at Tang Zhen's surprise, and then sent a voice message: "Valley Master Tang, have you finished refining the second part of the medicinal materials?"
"Haha, I've been waiting for this." Tang Zhen smiled, and with a thought, the nine fire dragons in the medicine cauldron suddenly opened their mouths, and many refined medicinal materials were spewed out again. Some of them split apart and swept into the dark golden halo where Xiao Yuan's soul power was.
"The refining of the Fire Bodhisattva Pill is divided into eight parts. We are only at the second part now. However, with the help of the two of you, I believe the success rate is very high this time."
"Eight parts?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but nodded, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. This Fire Bodhi Pill is quite interesting. He could prepare some later. Maybe it will be useful in the future.
After sighing slightly in his heart, Xiao Yuan quickly focused his mind again and began to integrate the second part of the pure medicinal power.
Half an hour after Xiao Yuan began to integrate the second part, Master Huan's tightly closed eyes slowly opened. He glanced at the direction where Xiao Yuan was and was quite shocked. Xiao Yuan's performance was really beyond his expectations.
"This young man named Xiao Yuan is probably a seventh-grade intermediate alchemist. Alas, his talent in alchemy is truly amazing."
With a light sigh in his heart, Master Huan's soul power swept through the medicine cauldron, absorbing the second batch of refined medicinal materials, and then fused them again.
The complexity of refining the Fire Bodhi Pill was beyond Xiao Yuan and Master Huan's expectations. Judging from this, it would take at least ten days to successfully refine the pill.
Refining medicine without sleep for ten consecutive days is extremely exhausting, especially when consuming soul power to fuse medicinal materials, one has to distract himself from resisting the high temperature erosion of the Nine Dragon Thunder Fire. Xiao Yuan was fine in this regard, but Master Huan felt a little weak in his body when the fusion of medicinal materials continued to the fifth round. Fortunately, he prepared a lot of recovery pills, otherwise it would be difficult for him to continue.
As the number of medicinal herbs floating in the air above the stone platform gradually decreased, time passed quickly. Calculating the time, this round of alchemy had lasted nearly seven days. During these seven days, the three people on the stone platform had hardly any movement in their bodies. The only movement was the medicinal fragrance emanating from the medicine cauldron, which became increasingly strong.
On a platform not far from the stone platform, a group of alchemy masters looked at Xiao Yuan, who had easily persisted for nearly seven days. The solemnity on their faces became more and more intense. No one dared to mock Xiao Yuan's performance in the past few days, because they all knew that if it were them, they would not be able to hold on.
"This Xiao Yuan is obviously a seventh-grade alchemist. Judging from his skillful techniques, he is not inferior to Master Huan."
On the platform, a master alchemist suddenly sighed and spoke.
Hearing this, everyone paused, then laughed bitterly. This was something that was hard for them to accept. They had cultivated for so many years to achieve such an accomplishment, but now a young man who looked only about 20 years old had surpassed them by far.
Master Mo was also staring blankly at the stone platform, with a look of dejection on his face. With his Taoist heart broken, he seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.
At the edge of the square, Tang Huoer stood gracefully, her slender figure looking particularly attractive. Her eyes were fixed on the stone platform, her jade hands clenched slightly. Now that the alchemy had entered the middle stage, nothing could go wrong.
Cai Linzhi felt very bored. She didn't understand alchemy. The only reason she could sit here these days was by looking at Xiao Yuan's focused expression and handsome face.
Time passed quickly in everyone's anticipation. In the blink of an eye, another day had passed, and the eight parts of alchemy had reached the final step!
At this moment, all the medicinal herbs suspended in the sky above the stone platform were thrown into the medicine cauldron. The powerful fire energy overflowed all around, making the sky seem a little distorted.
The silver flame in the medicine cauldron also became much more intense, and the sound of dragon roars continued to come out of it, then rose up and spread throughout the entire huge valley.
The faces of Xiao Yuan and the other two were also extremely solemn at this moment. If they couldn't pass this level, then this attempt at alchemy would be a complete failure.
"You two, I have already finished refining the herbs. The next step of fusing them is up to you."
Tang Zhen turned his gaze to Xiao Yuan and Master Huan, clasped his fists solemnly and said in a deep voice that there was nothing for him to do from now on, and whether the alchemy could be successful this time would depend on Xiao Yuan and Master Huan.
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan and Master Huan both nodded and quickly focused their minds!
Inside the medicine cauldron, in the dark golden halo, eight tiny balls of light were suspended, and a rich medicinal fragrance continued to diffuse from it. This was the medicinal liquid that was a fusion of nearly a hundred kinds of medicinal materials. Xiao Yuan’s current task was to completely fuse these eight balls together after nearly nine days!
And if he fails in the fusion, then this alchemy will naturally end in failure. But he feels that he is in good condition and there will be no problem. He is determined to obtain the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuan clenched his hands suddenly!
"Congeal!"
A cold shout rang out in his heart, and Xiao Yuan's majestic soul power burst out at this moment and immediately drilled into the medicine cauldron.
Master Huan on the side was also condensing the medicinal liquid at the same time.
Feeling the actions of the two, the solemn expression on Tang Zhen's face became more and more intense. The success or failure of this alchemy would depend on the performance of Xiao Yuan and Master Huan!
Xiao Yuan's soul power surged into the dark golden halo, and then his mind moved. Two drops of slightly colorful liquid suddenly swept down and then slowly came into contact.
As the two drops of medicine came into contact, ripples appeared on their surface. This was the resistance of the two medicinal powers to each other before they merged. Xiao Yuan wanted to use this to find the balance point between the two so that they could merge perfectly together.
This kind of fusion has extremely strict requirements on the accuracy of soul power. If there is any mistake in the middle, the fusion will fail.
The soul power turned into countless tiny threads, covering every inch of space within the two drops of medicine, so that any subtle changes in them would be recorded by Xiao Yuan in the first place.
This step of fusion was extremely tricky, but fortunately Xiao Yuan was experienced and had abundant soul power. Therefore, when his soul power maintained a stable pressure, the two medicinal liquids truly began to merge after a stalemate of about an hour. Although the speed was quite slow, completion was only a matter of time.
Time passed quickly during the quiet refining process. About three hours later, the two drops of colorful medicine liquid finally merged together completely, turning into a drop of colorful viscous liquid, gently floating in the dark golden halo.
Seeing that the fusion was successful, Xiao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. With a thought, another black powdery object flew down and slowly fell into the colorful viscous liquid.
Fusing the essence of medicinal materials is an extremely time-consuming step. One cannot be impatient at all. Otherwise, a slight mistake will lead to the failure of fusion and turn the precious medicinal materials into waste.
Fortunately, everything has been going smoothly for Xiao Yuan, and he is also extremely careful because he knows that the success or failure of this alchemy will determine whether he can get the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire.
As time passed, the eight tiny light balls within the dark golden light circle gradually merged under Xiao Yuan's control.
On the stone platform, Tang Zhen stared closely at the medicine cauldron, and its every move was quickly fed back to his mind.
"This Xiao Yuan is indeed different from ordinary people. Not only can he maintain the fusion speed, but he can also ensure that there are no mistakes in the fusion. Moreover, his soul power is also extremely powerful. Compared with Huan Feng, who is also a seventh-grade alchemist, he is much stronger."
With Tang Zhen's ability, he could naturally see at a glance that Xiao Yuan's soul power was much stronger than that of Master Huan.
With this thought flashing through his mind, Tang Zhen turned his gaze to Master Huan again, but saw the latter's slightly pale face. His heart sank slightly. It seemed that the medicinal power of the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire fusion had consumed a lot of his energy during these nine days.
However, although he was worried, Tang Zhen had no other options at the moment. He couldn't change players midway, so he could only pray in his heart that Huan Feng could hold on to the end.
Because of some changes on the stone platform, almost everyone present knew that Tang Zhen had completed his role at this moment, and now it depended on the abilities of Xiao Yuan and Master Huan. If they could successfully and perfectly integrate each other's medicinal power, then this alchemy would have a high success rate. But if something went wrong between the two, then this alchemy would probably end in failure.
"I don't know if Xiao Yuan can hold on to the end. During these nine days, his soul power must have been greatly consumed."
A master alchemist stroked his beard and spoke slowly.
"We have persisted to this point. If something goes wrong, it will be too regrettable."
Another alchemy master also spoke, and the people around him all nodded in agreement.
"Xiao Yuan doesn't show any signs of weakness, but Huan Feng's soul power has obviously begun to weaken gradually."
An old man standing at the front suddenly sighed and said.
After hearing his words, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, and the expressions on everyone's faces were almost a little stagnant. So, this Xiao Yuan is actually even stronger than Master Huan?
This absurd thought flashed through everyone's mind, and they didn't know what to say for a moment, because this old man was the other guest elder of Danta, whose eyesight, level, etc. were much better than theirs, so they didn't dare to question him, but they still murmured in their hearts, obviously not believing his words. The old man was too lazy to pay attention to these guys' mentality, looking at the stone platform with a slight worry in his eyes. In his perception, Huanfeng's soul power was indeed gradually weakening. If this continued, the consequences would be bad.
"Ah, I hope he can hold on. Refining a seventh-grade high-level elixir is indeed too much of a stretch for Huan Feng."
Time passed quickly during the fusion, and the fusion of Xiao Yuan and Master Huan's medicinal power was gradually coming to an end.
Under the gazes of so many people, the energy of heaven and earth on the high platform gradually became violent. Under this violence, an extremely strong medicinal fragrance quietly diffused, making those who smelled it feel relaxed and happy.
Noticing the changes on the platform, Tang Zhen and everyone else were excited. Is the fusion of the two about to be completed?
Under those intense gazes, Xiao Yuan's expression remained unchanged, and he did not dare to relax at all. After such a long period of fusion, his face was slightly pale, but it was not a big deal. In comparison, Master Huan was in much worse condition. The latter's face was completely pale, but he still gritted his teeth and never gave up. However, at this moment, he really made Xiao Yuan unable to feel at ease.
"Fusion!"
On the high platform, as the aroma of medicine became stronger and stronger, Xiao Yuan and Master Huan opened their eyes almost at the same time, let out a low shout, and their hand seals suddenly changed!
As the hand seals of the two people changed, the soul power in the medicine cauldron also changed accordingly. Under the surge in pressure, all the medicinal power in it was completely integrated together!
"laugh!"
At the moment of fusion, two strong rays of light, one blue and one red, suddenly shot out from the medicine cauldron, like pillars of light, shooting hundreds of meters into the sky.
When the strong light appeared, the two medicinal fragrances also reached their peak. At this moment, everyone present showed a hint of joy: "The fusion was successful?"
At the edge of the square, Tang Huoer's tense heart finally relaxed at this moment, and a touching smile appeared on her pretty face.
Tang Zhen, who was on the stone platform, also stood up suddenly at this moment, with a look of joy on his face that was hard to conceal. Fortunately, he was not a reckless person. He knew that he had not yet completely succeeded. He immediately clasped his fists towards Xiao Yuan and the others and said, "You two, the medicinal materials have all been integrated. The next step is the most important pill-making!"
Xiao Yuan nodded slightly, glanced at the direction where Master Huan was, and couldn't help asking: "Master Huan, can you continue?"
Hearing Xiao Yuan's words, Huan Feng quickly cheered up, waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Don't worry."
However, having said that, his expression, which looked even worse than Tang Huoer's, was not very convincing.
But this is the disadvantage of multiple people refining medicine, and Xiao Yuan has no way to solve it.
Tang Zhen also felt that Huan Feng's condition was a little off, but at this moment, there was no time to consider other things. He could only grit his teeth and said, "You two, please get started. If the fused medicinal power is left for too long, it will also affect the success rate of refining the pill."
Xiao Yuan and Master Huan both nodded, then took a deep breath and changed their hand seals. The green and red light in the medicine cauldron suddenly surged, and then, under the gazes of many people, it turned into two rainbow lights, which collided heavily in the center of the medicine cauldron!
"Oh!"
The two drops of liquid that combined the medicinal properties of nearly a hundred rare medicinal materials emitted a low sound the moment they collided. Immediately, an extremely powerful circle of energy fluctuations surged out from them and hit the inner wall of the medicine cauldron heavily, making a crisp clanging sound.
It was as if the medicine was mixed with soul power. This collision, when it hit Xiao Yuan, was like a drop in the ocean. However, Master Huan, who was already at the end of his strength, turned pale immediately and spurted out a mouthful of blood!
"Pfft!"
Looking at the Master Huan who suddenly vomited blood and fainted, the whole audience fell silent. The smiles that had just appeared on Tang Zhen and Tang Huoer's faces slowly solidified. Everyone knew that at this time, if the alchemist had a problem, what would be the result?
"It still failed."
Tang Zhen muttered to himself, his face suddenly looking much older, while Tang Huo'er, who was outside the arena, also turned as pale as snow, with a hint of sadness in her beautiful eyes. Was it really his fate?
Xiao Yuan was prepared for this, so he completely ignored Master Huan and immediately tried to rescue the part of the medicine that Master Huan was responsible for.
However, when Xiao Yuan saw the scene inside the medicine cauldron, his face instantly turned gloomy.
Because of Master Huan's coma, the part of the red liquid he was responsible for was actually broken in balance due to the sudden withdrawal of his soul power, and it directly turned into dull waste liquid!
Damn you.
Even though Xiao Yuan tried his best to restrain himself, he couldn't help but want to slap the old man on the ground in the face.
Since the alchemy was done earlier, Master Huan's alchemy skills were obviously not as good as those in the normal timeline. That was why the medicine liquid was not protected!
But if this is a seventh-grade high-level elixir, it is not impossible to refine it!
Xiao Yuan took a deep breath and decided to open the eyes of these old guys!
Unlike Xiao Yuan who was still full of confidence, everyone at this moment looked at the unconscious Master Huan with great regret. After ten days of persistence, no one expected that he would fail at the last moment.
Inside the medicine cauldron, only a green light flickered, and the red light had disappeared.
Tang Zhen stared at the medicine cauldron with a dull look. Sensing that half of the medicine had become waste, he also felt a hint of despair in his heart and his face became much darker.
The look of dejection was hard to bear. It was heartbreaking to see such a dejected figure.
Tang Huoer, who was standing at the edge of the square, also had a pretty face that turned pale. After a moment, she smiled miserably and her body staggered slightly. Several disciples from the Fenyan Valley behind her hurried forward to support her.
The entire square was silent and the heavy atmosphere made people feel extremely depressed. No one dared to speak at this time.
The silent and depressing atmosphere lasted for a while, and finally a low voice suddenly sounded, breaking the depressing silence in the square.
"Master Tang, this batch of pills is wasted. Can you give me another batch of ingredients for the Fire Bodhisattva Pill? Also, I need the complete recipe!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was in an uproar. Even Tang Zhen, who was in a state of depression, couldn't help but look up in astonishment. Looking at Xiao Yuan's serious face, his mouth opened slightly, and a little hope suddenly surged in his desperate heart: "Little friend Xiao Yuan, can you refine this Fire Bodhisattva Pill by yourself?"
Xiao Yuan nodded and said, "I have some confidence."
Feeling the confidence in Xiao Yuan's words, Tang Zhen's heart was shaken. He turned his eyes to the medicine liquid in the medicine cauldron that had turned into waste liquid. After hesitating for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Little friend Xiao Yuan, since you said so, then give it a try. Even if you fail in the end, I won't blame you!"
After saying that, Tang Zhen waved his hand, and a sky full of medicinal herbs and a red scroll fell beside Xiao Yuan.
"Thank you for your protection, Valley Master! Don't let anyone disturb me, I will try my best!"
Xiao Yuan nodded, then opened the red scroll and began to read.
Seeing Xiao Yuan start to study the prescription, Tang Zhen straightened his body slightly, the dejected look on his face quickly subsided, his body gradually rose into the air, his sharp eyes swept around, and he said in a deep voice: "From now on, no one is allowed to step within a hundred steps of the stone platform!"
Feeling the fierceness in Tang Zhen's words, the surrounding disciples of Fen Yan Valley were also startled, and immediately clasped their fists in response, and gradually retreated in an orderly manner without making any sound.
On the platform, the alchemy masters were also stunned by this scene. After they understood what happened, their mouths gradually opened wide. Xiao Yuan actually wanted to refine the Fire Bodhi Pill by himself?
You know, even in the Dan Tower, there are very few people who can refine this kind of seventh-grade advanced elixir!
Although everyone found this hard to believe, after seeing Tang Zhen's fierce face above the stone platform, they did not dare to speak casually and could only keep their doubts deep in their hearts.
On the stone platform, Xiao Yuan's face was solemn. He had actually seen four or five recipes for seventh-grade advanced elixirs. The difficulty of making the Fire Bodhi Pill was not higher than that of the Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill.
This can be seen from the effects. The Fire Bodhisattva Pill can only repair the damage caused by the backlash of the strange fire, but the Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill can truly revive the dead and turn bones into flesh.
In a blink of an eye, half a day had passed, but Xiao Yuan was still reading the recipe and seemed to have no intention of refining the elixir.
This made many people doubt whether this kid was really capable or not. Was he just trying to be mysterious?
In the stands, Tang Huoer looked at Xiao Yuan with a focused expression and couldn't help biting her red lips, her expression a little complicated.
She now hopes more than anyone else that Xiao Yuan can successfully refine the Fire Bodhi Pill.
Although she was embarrassed to say this, the man in front of her, who looked younger than her, was her only hope at the moment.
All the alchemy masters stopped mocking at this moment. Being able to make such a choice at this time, combined with Xiao Yuan's performance in the past few days, was enough to prove that Xiao Yuan's alchemy skills must be better than theirs.
They are not qualified to judge Xiao Yuan.
But no matter what, they found it hard to believe that Xiao Yuan had the ability to refine seventh-grade advanced elixirs.
Tang Zhen also had a hopeful look on his face at this moment. Although even he himself felt that there was little hope for this matter, he always felt that perhaps Xiao Yuan would bring a miracle.
"Look, he's moving!"
A voice came from somewhere, and many people's eyes were focused again. Then they saw Xiao Yuan put the prescription into his ring, then slapped the Mountain Melting Cauldron and returned it to Tang Zhen.
"My friend, what does this mean?"
Tang Zhen took the medicine cauldron and asked with a puzzled look.
"I'm not used to this tripod, so I'd better use the one I brought with me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yuan waved his hand, and the Black Demon Cauldron fell onto the stone platform. Xiao Yuan reached out and gently stroked the cauldron, thinking to himself, Teacher, bless me!
The next moment, a sharp look flashed in Xiao Yuan's eyes, and then he actually sat down cross-legged in mid-air. Dark golden flames gushed out, and he rolled up a large number of medicinal materials and began to refine them!
"That's the Black Demon Cauldron on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking!"
The guest elder of Danta recognized the origin of Xiao Yuan Medicine Cauldron almost at first sight!
“It’s actually the Black Demon Cauldron!”
Hearing this, some alchemy masters also reacted and immediately looked at Xiao Yuan's expression, which became extremely serious.
The terrifying strange fire, and the Black Demon Cauldron. What is the origin of Xiao Yuan?
On the high platform, Tang Zhen looked at the Black Demon Cauldron, and his eyes suddenly focused.
This is the cauldron of Medicine Master!
Back then, before he became the master of Fenyan Valley, the name of Medicine Master had already spread throughout Zhongzhou.
Could it be that this Xiao Yuan is the disciple of Master Yao?
Didn’t Venerable Ke Yao die a long time ago?
Tang Zhen was thinking in his heart, but on the surface, he remained calm.
"Watch well and study hard!"
As the medicinal materials entered the Black Magic Cauldron, Xiao Yuan looked at the alchemist in the distance and smiled confidently. In his soul sea of consciousness, the pure soul power in the Yin-Yang Soul Nourishing Pearl poured into his soul sea of consciousness, making up for the soul power lost in the past few days. The powerful soul power immediately formed a terrifying pressure around Xiao Yuan. In the medicine cauldron, the temperature of the dark golden strange fire also suddenly soared.
Seeing that Xiao Yuan had extracted twice as much medicinal materials as himself in one go, Tang Zhen's expression became more serious.
This fire-controlling technique is even stronger than mine?
The alchemy masters in the distance were also shocked when they saw Xiao Yuan firing at full power.
With such skillful techniques and terrifying soul power, could it be that Xiao Yuan is really a seventh-grade advanced alchemist?
Isn't his talent too terrifying?
At this moment, Xiao Yuan was completely focused on refining medicine. His skillful control of the strange fire and his ability to refine pills completely convinced the alchemists.
Next, in just four days, Xiao Yuan advanced the pill refining to the step where Master Huan had failed before.
Master Huan below had already woken up. When he learned that Xiao Yuan was actually refining the Fire Bodhi Pill alone, he refused to go back to rest. Instead, he took medicine to recover while watching Xiao Yuan refining the medicine.
Although they had experienced this once before, many people still held their breath and watched Xiao Yuan perform the final fusion and pill cultivation.
At this moment, the medicinal power contained in the medicine cauldron has reached a terrifying level, and it can even cause energy fluctuations between heaven and earth. If it were not for the protection of the Black Magic Cauldron, the energy of heaven and earth outside would have been in chaos long ago.
Xiao Yuan's soul power, as vast as the ocean, poured out, completely enveloping the two rays of light, one blue and one red, and then split into countless energy threads, slowly merging into the two rays of light.
As soon as the soul power invaded the two balls of light, Xiao Yuan's body shook violently. These two drops of viscous liquid, one green and one red, although small in size, contained the power of more than a hundred kinds of rare medicinal materials, and each of these medicinal materials had only grown after a long time. These medicinal powers were now completely integrated together, which was enough to show how rich the medicinal power was in these two drops of viscous liquid.
And perhaps because of the contact between the two viscous liquids, the medicinal power in them now seems particularly violent, and the fusion is extremely difficult. Moreover, the violent medicinal power is still emitting repulsiveness, trying to exclude the other party and leave.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Yuan discovered that the medicinal power within the two drops of liquid did not weaken at all, but became stronger and stronger. Even the distance between them was being slowly separated. If this continued, it would be extremely difficult for them to come into contact, let alone merge.
But Xiao Yuan has now mastered the art of alchemy, and naturally he will not be stumped by such a small problem.
Xiao Yuan's mind moved, and the soul power that permeated the medicine cauldron suddenly swept over, controlling the dark golden flame to form a vortex of flame. Under the interweaving of the strange fire and soul power, the huge pressure was immediately concentrated on the medicine liquid, and under such fierce pressure, the two drops of green and red liquid finally slowly came into contact, and then were forcibly kneaded together.
This technique had extremely high requirements for soul power and fire control technology. Even Xiao Yuan could only achieve this step by forcibly outputting a large amount of soul power, such as the Qi Palace Dou Qi Infusion Method, releasing a large amount of soul power at once.
If it weren't for the soul-nourishing beads, he probably wouldn't have been able to hold on until the end of refining the medicine.
At the same time, Tang Zhen also noticed the dark golden flames sweeping out from the medicine cauldron. Looking in the direction, he saw the green-red liquid slowly turning in the flames. Indistinctly, the liquid had a tendency to solidify.
Tang Zhen was not unfamiliar with this scene. He knew that this was a sign of pill success. His heartbeat suddenly quickened and a hint of excitement appeared on his face. He had never thought that Xiao Yuan could actually complete this last step by himself!
Under the constant burning of the dark gold flame and the constant output of soul power, the blue-red liquid gradually solidified.
The silence in the square lasted for a whole day and night. During this time, it was like deathly silence, without any sound. However, no one left during this time. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the stone platform. Everyone wanted to know whether the young man who looked very young could complete this last step.
A ray of morning light quietly poured down from the sky, breaking the dark night in the valley.
And at the moment when this ray of morning light appeared, the energy of heaven and earth within the vast Burning Flame Valley suddenly fluctuated violently!
Tang Zhen, who was sitting cross-legged on the stone platform, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the center of the stone platform with a look of ecstasy. From the medicine cauldron there, a scent of elixir suddenly floated out.
"Boom!"
When Tang Zhen opened his eyes, a dark cloud suddenly appeared in the sky without warning. In the dark cloud, thunder was rolling, and silver snakes were slithering around with a terrifying sound.
"Dandan Lei? He actually succeeded?"
Looking at the dark clouds in the sky, the alchemy masters present suddenly stiffened, and muttered in disbelief. (End of this chapter)
