There was a black flame in Ye Xiangyang's palm, and the black color of the flame was like the dark night. The flame completely wrapped the big cauldron, the nine-angled basalt cauldron, to preheat the big cauldron. Ye Xiangyang controlled the temperature of the flame and did it in an orderly manner.
He had to keep the temperature of every part of the cauldron constant. Only in this way could the medicine be integrated at the most suitable temperature.
The other contestants were busy with their own work. Some had already finished refining the essence of the medicine, while others were still refining it. The venue with 200,000 people was completely silent. Only the sound of the whirring flames could be heard, and only the colorful flames rose up, as if beautiful flowers were blooming in the competition venue.
Several direct disciples of the Alchemy Elder have already started refining pills. They received personal instruction from the Chief Alchemy Elder Dan Rongzi, and after countless times of refining pills, they have become adept at refining pills.
From flame control to drug preparation, from flame temperature to pill fusion, every step is orderly. Watching them refining the pill is like watching a dance, full of rhythm, like a stunning dance with long sleeves fluttering, they are truly immortal.
The alchemy elder watched them refining the elixir and nodded with satisfaction. These people would definitely bring reputation to the sect.
More than a dozen people from the four major families also began to cooperate with the medication and reached the stage of taking shape.
The four major families have a profound foundation. Although they cannot compare with the alchemy elders in terms of elixirs, they are also outstanding in the Arctic Sky. Their families are deeply rooted and their children are of course standing on the shoulders of giants. Every alchemist has a family inheritance, and they are also very hardworking, beyond imagination.
There are also some talented individuals, they are all the sect's alchemy geniuses. These people rely on their intelligence and talent to make a name for themselves in one alchemy competition after another. They can be said to be geniuses.
The genius has also begun to fuse the elixir.
Ye Xiangyang's Nine-Angled Black Tortoise Cauldron was still in the warm-up stage. He was methodical and unhurried. Black flames surrounded the cauldron like clouds.
When the sound of the cauldron rang out, the preheating of the Nine-Angled Black Tortoise Cauldron was completed.
Ye Xiangyang directly mobilized his spiritual consciousness and followed the steps of alchemy, slowly blending the various medicines at the appropriate temperature.
Ye Xiangyang masters the "Xuanwu Dan Jing" and "Dan Ding Alchemy Technique", and is a master in the Xuanwu Continent. The Xuanwu Dan Jing, in particular, is a treasure of the hometown of the four sacred beasts. Even the Dan Ding Xian Sect does not have such a profound foundation.
As Ye Xiangyang's cultivation level increased, his alchemy skills also improved. He gained more and more from the Xuanwu Dan Sutra, and became more and more adept at refining pills.
Everyone outside was watching the medicine refining site with bated breath. The people participating in the competition in the field were like dancing, with graceful and beautiful movements. They poured the essence of various medicines elegantly into the alchemy furnace, and the fragrance of medicine floated out from the furnace and diffused on the field.
They sniffed the fragrance of elixirs wafting from the venue and commented on the process of many people refining elixirs on the venue. The onlookers were all disciples of the Danding Xianzong. Even if they were not masters of refining elixirs, they had experienced alchemy for many years and were from the most powerful elixir sect in Beijitian. They were very knowledgeable about elixirs.
They admired with envy: "Brother, look, the methods of the disciples of the chief elder of the alchemy are obviously one level higher than those of the four major families in refining elixirs."
"Yes, this is the foundation. Look at the people from the four major families and those geniuses. Their refining techniques are almost the same. Look at the others. Their techniques are a little unfamiliar and not so smooth."
"You are right. Alchemy requires a smooth and natural flow, and it requires a natural process. Most of the people here are just here to fill in the gaps."
"Brother, what happened to Ye Xiangyang? Why didn't he extract the essence and put it in the jade bottle?"
"What's going on? It's a habit he brought from the lower realm. He thought that if he could refine pills in the lower realm, he could do it in our Arctic Heaven as well. Hehehe, you can say he got the wrong idea."
…
Time passed little by little, and suddenly a thunder-like sound was heard in the alchemy field. Rumbling, a cloud of black smoke rose from an alchemy furnace, making a deafening sound.
This person tried his best to control his alchemy furnace, and finally managed to control the furnace with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, without accidentally hurting the people around him. His competition was over. He only had one chance in this competition. If he failed to refine the alchemy, he would have wasted his chance and would be out of the competition.
He could only shake his head and left the alchemy site helplessly, his cheeks flushed, and he said, "Damn it, why did the furnace explode? All those days of preparation were in vain."
If one person's furnace exploded, two people would follow. Then, a rumbling sound was heard, and furnaces exploded one after another. The energy fluctuations of the furnace explosions affected the people around them. Some people were affected and their furnaces exploded as a result.
All those people who caused the explosion had gloomy faces. Who doesn't want to get rewards in the competition? Who doesn't want to be proud? But they never expected that Banzhongyao would return with a failure. They felt depressed, which was hard to describe.
There were probably nearly a hundred people blowing up the furnace.
Time passed slowly, and people were waiting for the surprise when the elixir came out.
A day passed.
The fragrance of elixir wafted out of many elixir furnaces.
A purple cloud floated in the sky and came towards the center of the venue. People were all staring at the cloud. They knew that someone had succeeded in refining a mid-grade immortal-level elixir, otherwise such a cloud would not appear.
Sure enough, the person in the venue was a genius in alchemy. His alchemy furnace was full of energy, as if it could explode at any time.
Purple pill clouds were covering his alchemy furnace. Suddenly, three pills emerged from the furnace and flew towards the sky.
Crack, crack, the pill thunder was loud and struck towards the pill. A mid-grade immortal-level pill was already an extremely heaven-defying medicine, and this kind of medicine would not be tolerated by heaven.
This person held a flaming sword in one hand, which was heading towards the sky and colliding with the thunder. In the other hand, he grabbed the elixir that had already become spiritual and was trying to escape.
Crackling, the flaming sword and the thunder collided, the two sides blended with each other, merged with each other, and eroded each other, until finally, the flaming sword and the thunder disappeared.
Crack, crack, another bolt of thunder...
On the field, one alchemy furnace after another produced elixirs, and the medicine splashed and shot into the sky. Some people did not manage to refine mid-grade immortal-level elixirs, so they did not care about the elixir thunder.
They took their own pills and returned to the audience. According to the requirements of the pill competition, this competition required the successful refining of a mid-grade immortal-level pill. If their own pills did not reach that grade, they would be considered a failure.
More and more Dan clouds gathered in the sky, and each Dan cloud covered an Dan furnace. The onlookers looked at the scene of the Dan clouds pressing down on the sky, and their fists clenched excitedly and made crackling sounds.
When the alchemy geniuses of the four major families produced their alchemy pills, their alchemy roads were surging, and the purple alchemy thunder in the sky was shining brightly, flashing with dazzling light.
Crack, crack, crack, bolts of lightning came towards their pills.
Another person's pill was destroyed by thunder, leaving only two pills.
On the alchemy site, people gradually left.
Gradually, only six or seven people including Ye Xiangyang were left in the huge venue.
Six purple clouds floated in the sky. The purple color of the six clouds was so bright that it was hard to believe. It was the most beautiful color in the world and the most beautiful clouds they had ever seen.
Some people opened their mouths and sighed: "Oh my, these people are really extraordinary. Just look at the clouds and you will know that the pills they refine are absolutely first-class."
"Yes, the bright clouds show that their elixirs are of very high level."
"It's really enviable. These people are the ones who have the greatest chance of entering the Twelve Sects Alchemy Competition."
Thunders as loud as a tsunami sounded in the sky.
The pills of the six people flew into the sky like arrows. Many people's eyes were focused on these pills. The pills of the six people were all high-grade mid-level immortal-level pills.
There was a warm applause from the audience: "Great! Great work! Senior Brother's alchemy skills are amazing."
"Yes," the speaker's eyes sparkled, "When will my alchemy skills reach this level? I'll be willing to die."
Lai Ye Xiangyang was the only one left on the field.
People were still looking at him, but they all had meaningful smiles on their faces: "Brother, is Ye Xiangyang refining the elixir? Others have finished refining, but he is still like that?"
"Maybe, or maybe I'm sorry for failing."
"You know what, I'm really interested. I want to see what kind of elixir Ye Xiangyang can refine." His smile was full of teasing.
Someone said, "Just wait and see what kind of elixir it is. He can't make any good elixir."
Even Yue Haoran, Cang Liangcai and others were not confident. This was Beijitian. The elixir he refined was of the middle grade of the immortal level, and it was so easy to refine. They were also looking forward to what kind of elixir Ye Xiangyang could refine.
The six who finally succeeded in refining the elixir looked at Ye Xiangyang and smiled: "I am looking forward to my junior brother being able to refine a better elixir."
"It's hard to say. Refining pills requires background and inheritance. How can a kid from the lower realm refine a good pill?"
At this moment, the sky was filled with energy and a cloud floated over. This cloud was larger than any of the pill clouds that everyone had used to refine pills just now. It was three times as large as the pill clouds of each of the six people who had refined pills in the end.
Moreover, the light clouds were no longer pure purple, but purple and blue intertwined, forming a spectacular scene in the sky.
Almost everyone on the planet stared at the pill cloud in the sky, and everyone in their hearts was shouting to varying degrees: "It's the pill thunder of a top-grade immortal-level pill."
"No, it's not the top grade of the Immortal Rank, but the peak of the middle grade of the Immortal Rank, almost close to the top grade."
"How is it possible? He is a boy who was promoted from the lower realm. How could he refine a top-grade immortal-level elixir?"
