In Master Jiaomu's opinion, Ling Xiao's talent in alchemy is even more amazing than his talent in martial arts. Those ancient alchemy recipes that even Ling Juechen and True Man Chunyang were helpless to use were easily restored in Ling Xiao's hands.
Ling Xiao's alchemy skills were so astonishing that even Master Jiao Mu was amazed.
In Master Jiaomu's heart, Ling Xiao's attainments in alchemy are even better than Ling Juechen and True Man Chunyang.
Although Zhao Ritian has a strong talent in alchemy, in Master Jiaomu's opinion, he is still far behind Ling Xiao. He is like a firefly compared to the bright moon, they are not on the same level at all.
Zhao Ritian clamored to compete with Ling Xiao in alchemy, which was just like an old man eating arsenic and he was tired of living!
"quiet!"
At this moment, the door of the Tianshi Temple opened, and an old man in a black robe with a childlike face and white hair walked out.
The old man was tall and had a sharp face. There was a gleam of light in his old eyes and he exuded a powerful aura.
The most important thing is that on the old man’s chest, there is an embroidered golden tripod and five golden stars.
This is a mid-level alchemy master!
"Everyone, I am Xia Yan, and I am honored to host this Alchemist Conference! This Alchemist Conference was initiated by the State Master and Master Chunyang, and is intended to provide an opportunity for many alchemists in our Great Wilderness Ancient Country to communicate..."
The old man in black robe smiled and spoke slowly to everyone.
"It turned out to be Xia Yan, the chief alchemist master of the royal family? I heard that he is not only a strong man in the heavenly realm, but also has reached the peak of the middle-grade alchemist. His attainments in alchemy are second only to the state master. I didn't expect that he would be the one presiding over this alchemist conference!"
Someone exclaimed and recognized the identity of the old man in black robe.
“… The State Master and Pure Yang Zhenren are in seclusion to break through to the realm of the Supreme Alchemy Master, so today I will host the Alchemy Master Conference! This time, as long as you can pass the assessment of the Alchemy Master Conference, you will not only receive many rewards, but you will also have the opportunity to receive guidance from the State Master and Pure Yang Zhenren, so this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, everyone must strive for it!”
Xia Yan smiled, and his old voice echoed throughout the square.
Many alchemists immediately showed extremely excited expressions, and their eyes were eager.
The State Master and Master Chunyang are actually about to break through to the realm of the ultimate alchemy master. If I can get their guidance, maybe I will have a chance to break through and make rapid progress in the way of alchemy.
Zhao Ritian put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, and showed a look of disdain.
"This Alchemist Conference has three levels in total. Alchemists who can pass the three levels will be able to obtain unimaginable benefits! Well, without further ado, the first level is the identification level. Everyone, follow me!"
Xia Yan looked at everyone with satisfaction and led them into the Tianshi Hall.
"Identification level? Could it be identifying spiritual medicine? Isn't this too easy?"
Someone whispered.
"It shouldn't be that simple. Even if we are identifying spiritual medicines, there may be many unconventional spiritual medicines!"
Many alchemists were extremely excited and nervous, and followed Xia Yan into the Tianshi Hall.
"Ling Xiao, do you dare to make a bet with me?"
Zhao Ritian rolled his eyes and looked at Ling Xiao.
"Not interested in!"
Ling Xiao glanced at him, and walked straight into the Tianshi Hall with Master Jiao Mu.
"asshole!"
Zhao Ritian was furious and sneered, "Just wait until I win the first place in the Alchemist Conference. I'll see if you dare to act arrogantly in front of me!"
Xia Hongxiu followed Zhao Ritian, her fair forehead full of black lines and a look of helplessness.
The space inside the Tianshi Hall is very large. At this moment, there are hundreds of transparent glass boxes placed in front of everyone. Each glass box is covered with a faint forbidden light. Inside them are spiritual medicines of various shapes, and a faint fragrance is emanating from them.
"Is it really an elixir of identification?"
Some people were slightly stunned, looking at the hundreds of glass boxes with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
Ling Xiao looked at the elixirs in the hundreds of glass boxes, smelling the faint medicinal fragrance, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.
He seemed to understand the purpose of this Alchemist Conference.
Because among these hundreds of spiritual herbs, almost half of them are needed to refine the Resurrection Pill.
"Identification level? How interesting!"
A curve appeared at the corner of Ling Xiao's mouth.
"Everyone, there are 108 colored glass boxes here, and each of them contains a spiritual medicine. The content of the identification test is to identify the spiritual medicines in these 108 colored glass boxes. Not only do you have to identify the names of the spiritual medicines, but you also have to identify the years of the spiritual medicines, as well as their properties and uses!
The name, year, properties and uses of the spiritual medicine. Each correct answer will earn one point, a total of 432 points. Those who answer more than 300 points can enter the second level of assessment! "
Xia Yan's voice sounded, announcing the assessment content of the identification level.
“It’s not that simple!”
Many alchemists showed a hint of understanding on their faces.
Identifying spiritual medicine is the simplest and most basic knowledge, while distinguishing the year by color, shape and aroma is a bit difficult. As for exploring the properties and uses of spiritual medicine, it requires rich knowledge of alchemy and practical experience to do so.
Therefore, the simple identification level tests many aspects of knowledge of the Dao of Alchemy, which can be said to be extremely difficult.
There are many alchemists who know the names of elixirs, but it is difficult for them to determine their years, or even their properties and uses.
"Ling Xiao, do you dare to bet with me? I bet you can't even get half of my score. If you win, I will give you this Qingling Treasure Pill. This Qingling Treasure Pill can improve the Dragon Tiger Realm by one level. It is very precious. Only my Sun Moon Star Sect has it. Ordinary people can't get it. If you lose, apologize to me and admit your mistake. How about it?"
Zhao Ritian licked his face and came closer to Ling Xiao, holding a green elixir in his hand with a strong medicinal fragrance, and said with a cocky look on his face.
"Qingling Treasure Pill? It's just a low-grade treasure pill. I'm not interested!"
Ling Xiao glanced at the Qingling Pill in Zhao Ritian's hand with disdain.
"So what do you want in exchange for a bet with me?"
Zhao Ritian said without giving up.
Ling Xiao looked around, walked to the gate of the Tianshi Temple, and took out a green gate stone. It looked to be the size of a human head and was very sturdy.
"If you win, I can kneel down and kowtow to you! But if you lose, you will eat this gate-guarding stone. Do you dare?"
Ling Xiao looked at Zhao Ritian with a faint smile on his face.
"Eat the gate stone? Why not? We have a deal, but I'm afraid you will have to kneel down and kowtow. Ling Xiao, just wait, you're doomed to fail!"
Zhao Ritian was stunned for a moment, then laughed arrogantly.
But for some reason, Zhao Ritian felt an ominous feeling in his heart, and always felt that Ling Xiao's smile was somewhat malicious.
