A black flame gushed out from Ye Xiangyang's hand, and a faint layer of poison lingered on the black flame.
Some elders looked at Ye Xiangyang's flames with serious expressions in their eyes.
Everyone still remembers what happened last night. Seven disciples of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave were poisoned. After the poisoning, even the emperor-level alchemist could not cure it.
With no other options, the Elder Emperor of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave went to Ye Xiangyang's location to invite him, and spent countless resources before he was able to help them unlock the secret.
The toxin is shockingly potent.
The flames of this kid are full of toxins, which really makes people feel a little uncomfortable: "Does anyone dare to eat the pills made with poisonous flames?"
One hundred alchemists sat cross-legged in front of their own alchemy furnaces, concentrating on preheating their furnaces.
This is the highest level of alchemist competition under the Emperor in Xuanwu Continent. These alchemists are masters in the alchemy world. What kind of medicines they can refine is worth the expectations of countless people below.
People quietly watched the people on the stage. Their fire-controlling techniques were all unique and each one more skilled than the other, like a graceful dance.
Along with the clear sound of a large cauldron ringing, ding—
The aftertaste is lingering and endless.
The Yao family alchemist was preheated successfully.
People's eyes were wide open, and the preheating was fast, which meant that he had a high degree of control over the flame, and that he was quite skilled in fire control. In a sense, high fire control skills could produce more advanced pills.
"You are a junior of the Yao family. You warm up faster than others."
"Yes, this is the foundation. The Yao family can become the largest family in refining pills, so they naturally have abilities that others cannot compare with."
"Yes, look at these thirty alchemists from the Yao family. Each of them is skilled in controlling fire and has unique techniques, just like flowing clouds and water, which is pleasing to the eye."
"That's right. This method of controlling fire is shocking. I feel like I have benefited a lot from watching their fire control techniques from below."
The people watching the alchemy competition below are all enthusiasts of alchemy, or they are already quite capable alchemists. Therefore, they pay close attention to every move of the alchemists on the field, even the subtle changes in their techniques.
This is their chance to learn, and this opportunity is not available whenever they want. It only comes once every sixty years, and one has to wait sixty years before being able to watch this kind of high-level alchemy.
This kind of opportunity is very rare. All the major sects and forces in the continent send out their best players to add luster to their sects. It is also the best learning opportunity for lower-level alchemists.
Some people from the Yao family looked at the younger generations of their family on the stage and nodded their heads at how skilled they were in refining pills. These younger generations usually received the most rigorous training from the family, and now was the time to test their results.
If one can stand out in the alchemy competition, the family will allocate more resources to him, and he will be trained by the Yao family with more resources.
"These children performed very well. Yao Wenjiao was the first to successfully warm up, and this success was extremely complete. This is a good start."
"Yes, every generation has talented people, and each of them leads the country for hundreds of years. Our Yao family relies on these brilliant younger generations, and the family will need their support in the future."
"Overall, it is quite satisfactory. The specific results will have to wait until the end of the alchemy competition."
"The disciples of Xuanwu Palace and Yuhua Palace are also very good."
"Yes, there are indeed some signs, such as Yu Qianqiang from the Ghost Clan, Long Yuntian from the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, and Huo Jingyi from the Fire Phoenix Clan. These people are all masters."
"Generally speaking, there are many talented people here. What do you think of Ye Xiangyang, the eldest brother?"
After saying that, he turned his head and pointed in Ye Xiangyang's direction and asked.
The man looked at Ye Xiangyang's nine-cornered basalt tripod. This huge tripod was like a turtle lying on the ground. Its tortoise shell was engraved with ancient characters from an unknown era. The whole tripod looked clumsy, heavy, vicissitudes and majestic.
"It's hard to say. This kid seems to have refined some kind of True Dragon Heavenly King Pill, which is said to be a top-level Earth-grade pill, just a hair short of reaching the Heaven-grade. Unfortunately, this kid didn't refine this kind of pill this time. I wonder what the result will be?"
This is true. Even a person who is very skilled in refining pills can make mistakes during the competition. The slightest mistake can cause the pill furnace to explode, and all previous efforts will be wasted.
Therefore, even if those emperor masters are refining pills, they generally have to prepare three doses to prevent mistakes.
Dangdangdang—
It's like the sound of a bell, one after another, continuous and endless.
These sounds, high and low, light and heavy, sounded like a concert.
Yu Qianqiang from the Ghost Clan, Huo Jingyi from the Fire Phoenix Clan, Long Yuntian from the Ancient Void Dragon... Those who were hostile to Ye Xiangyang couldn't help but curl their lips when they saw that most of the people at the competition venue had successfully preheated their alchemy furnaces, but Ye Xiangyang's had not yet.
Yu Qianqiang said grimly, "Ye Xiangyang, you can't even warm up a furnace. I think you're going to lose this game."
"Brother Yu is right. I thought you were very capable to establish the Xiangyang Association and expand the elixir business across the Xuanwu Continent. But now it seems like nothing. You are just an idiot."
"Hahaha, Ye Xiangyang, add some fuel to the fire and warm it up quickly, otherwise you will miss it."
Ye Xiangyang did not speak. His face was as calm as a pool of autumn water, and he was completely focused on preheating his alchemy furnace.
The reason why it is difficult to preheat is that this is the Nine-Angled Black Tortoise Cauldron. This huge cauldron looks like an earth-grade treasure, but in fact, it is a magical existence that surpasses the heaven-grade treasure.
To surpass the Heavenly Grade treasure, the energy required is more than a hundred times the energy of the cauldrons of these alchemists.
Ye Xiangyang preheated the alchemy furnace so slowly. Ye Xiangyang also used his Immortal Poison Phoenix Flame to its fullest extent. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a faint poison floating in the air.
Even so, everyone else's furnace was preheated successfully, except Ye Xiangyang's furnace.
One by one, the alchemists threw their medicines into the furnace and began the process of purifying the medicines.
Every alchemist has a different way of adding medicines, and they each have their own inheritance.
The only thing that was the same was that everyone's methods of adding medicine, refining medicine, and removing impurities were as graceful as flowing water. The flames were either large or small, and their bodies also made different movements as they refined the medicine. These movements were extremely graceful, as if more than a hundred people were rehearsing a unique dance.
"Amazing! No wonder these people were able to stand out from the preliminaries. They are really talented."
"Brother, what you said is right. Look at the movements of these people. They are extremely smooth without any stagnation. This must have been achieved through endless practice."
"Even the fifty people selected by the Yao family are not undeserving of their reputation. Look at their fire control techniques, drug delivery, and impurity removal. Each step is so perfect. These people are truly the best below the Emperor of Xuanwu Continent. This level is breathtaking."
"The only difference is Ye Xiangyang. Look, he hasn't been preheated yet. Could it be that the temperature of his flame is so bad?"
"It is said that Xiangyanghui sells its elixirs to all parts of Xuanwu Continent. Those elixirs are low-level elixirs. Maybe this kid can only refine low-level elixirs and is not good at refining this kind of earth-level elixir."
At this moment, when—
A loud bell rang, and Ye Xiangyang's alchemy furnace was finally preheated successfully.
The sound of his alchemy furnace was like a rushing river, roaring down, continuously and endlessly.
The endless sound spread from the Yao family to a hundred miles away.
It took Ye Xiangyang a day and a night to preheat the Nine-Angled Black Tortoise Cauldron before he was successful.
Ye Xiangyang also began the process of extracting the essence of the medicine.
As Ye Xiangyang grabbed with his powerful palm, more than a hundred kinds of medicinal minerals were thrown into the Nine-angled Black Tortoise Cauldron in a disorderly manner like stars in the sky.
The audience below was stunned by the scene. They all felt it was incredible, truly incredible.
Someone asked, "Brother, what is this technique?"
After being identified by many people, it was found that there was no technique involved, it was just a casual grab and throw, there was no technical content involved at all.
"Oh my god, I don't have any skills, but this is possible? I can also refine pills this way."
"Who knows? Could it be that Ye Xiangyang is not fooling around?"
Another day and night passed, and when others were about to succeed in refining the elixir, Ye Xiangyang's drug purification was finally successful.
Many people find it very interesting that Ye Xiangyang, this kid, refines medicines with relatively high purity, but his speed is a beat slower than others. It makes people laugh.
At this moment, the Shura clan's alchemist was very nervous. He used all his strength to control the surging energy in the furnace. If the fusion was not good, the pill would explode in the furnace.
Sure enough, after a while, there was a loud rumble:
A powerful energy rose up from the alchemy furnace and rushed straight to the formation. If it were not for the protection of the formation, the other alchemists would have suffered a powerful blow.
You must know that the Earth-grade medicine is the full-strength attack of the throne. This kind of attack is extremely powerful and can shatter mountains and rivers.
The man tried his best to protect himself, but he was shocked and vomited blood and his face turned pale.
Obviously seriously injured, he was so angry that he kicked the alchemy furnace, and the furnace crashed into the formation.
The battle lines flickered, and the alchemy furnace was blocked by the battle formation.
Wow, I spit out blood again.
He took away his precious earth-grade alchemy furnace and walked off the stage angrily.
For every one who failed, two others followed, and then seven or eight others. This time the alchemy attempt ended in failure.
They didn't blow up the alchemy furnace, so for those who didn't consume too much energy, they cleaned the furnace again and started refining from the beginning.
The alchemist whose furnace explodes can only withdraw from the competition.
At this moment, the sound of "dangdangdang" was heard, and the pill was ready. Someone had successfully refined the pill.
