Master of Science and Technology

Chapter 52: So what if there are evil ways?

Views:

He took out the elixir and was laughed at.

Take out the spirit stone and be despised.

Now, after taking out Yimu Qinghuo, Jin Hongze could finally raise his head and look at Ye Zan with a proud face, waiting to see what else the other party could come up with.

"Oh," Ye Zan nodded and said calmly: "It seems to be of some use, so I will take this gamble with you."

"Hmph!" Jin Hongze snorted coldly and was about to put away the bottle containing Yimu Qinghuo.

"Wait!" Ye Zan suddenly said again.

Jin Hongze was stunned for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Why, you regretted it?"

"It's not that I regret it, I'm afraid that you will regret it. It's not the first time you've done something like this if you can't afford to lose." Ye Zan said mockingly.

Ye Zan's words immediately reminded everyone in the audience of the scene in the image. Although everyone did not dare to go too far when facing a Nascent Soul Realm alchemy master, the looks in their eyes were like steel knives piercing Jin Hongze's heart.

"Stop talking nonsense, what do you want!" Jin Hongze was so angry that he almost wanted to kill the other party directly.

"Don't be anxious, it's actually very simple. You give that fire to a few grandmasters for temporary safekeeping, and I will make a bet with you. Otherwise, if you want to cheat again later, you have to let me snatch it from you. It doesn’t look good.” Ye Zan said calmly.

"Okay, I will obey you, so that you can be convinced of your defeat!" Jin Hongze didn't think he would lose at all, so he turned around and handed the Yimu Qinghuo in his hand to Li Ziliang next to him.

After the two parties agreed on the bet, Li Ziliang had another alchemy furnace moved to the stage. The seven alchemy masters took their positions. The so-called master's performance was finally about to begin.

However, after Jin Hongze's uproar, the focus of everyone's attention today is no longer on the other grandmasters. Someone has even secretly opened a bet below, betting on who will be the final winner between Jin Hongze and Ye Zan.

"Bring me red peony, hibiscus, white-headed sheath..." Yan Xinghe first reported the herbs he wanted, and someone quickly brought them up.

"Fellow Daoist Yan seems to want to replace Bamboo Heart Lotus with Red Peony Flower, and replace Nine-toothed Breastgrass with Fulingcao..." A nearby alchemy master immediately knew Yan Xinghe's intention after hearing the herbs reported by Yan Xinghe. When he said this, he didn't mean to make trouble, but to give an explanation to everyone in the audience. Of course, there was also a bit of showing off.

Then, several alchemy masters, including Liu Qian, each reported the herbs they wanted, and someone immediately brought the herbs they needed to the stage.

However, after hearing the herbs everyone wanted, Jin Hongze curled his lips disdainfully, turned his eyes to Ye Zan, and said, "What, this new alchemy master, hasn't figured out what to do yet?"

"Do your own thing! You have a roof over your own butt, and you still care about others." Ye Zan replied unceremoniously.

"Hmph, let's see if you can still be so eloquent when you kneel in front of me!" Jin Hongze was annoyed and turned to the alchemist who was providing herbs by the stage and said: "Go and get the red arrow grass for me. Forgetting Flower…”

Jin Hongze also reported a list of names of herbal medicines, but after hearing these herbal medicines, the masters frowned one by one, with thoughtful expressions on their faces, as if they couldn't understand each other's intentions.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Jin Hongze, who got the herbal medicine, had a slightly proud look on his face. This time he came here, but he was prepared. He had already known the topic in advance through a certain channel. Moreover, he has conducted many experiments over the past few days, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is confident.

At this time, Ye Zan finally spoke and said to the alchemist who provided the herbal medicine: "Bring me thirty kilograms of spirits, twenty kilograms of cat's ear grass, twenty kilograms of yellow vine roots..."

"Ah?" The alchemist who provided the herbal medicine was stunned. What the hell are these? Although they are all worthless things, can these things be used to make elixirs

Although the things Ye Zan wanted sounded large, they were common things in the world. Needless to say, spirits, one ingot of silver can pull a cart, cat's ear grass is also a wild vegetable commonly eaten by people in the secular mountains, and the following things are also in a similar situation, and are even used to feed livestock.

People on and off the stage were all confused after hearing this. No one could imagine that those ordinary things in the world can actually be used to make elixirs

"What, didn't you hear clearly? Then I'll say it again." Seeing the other party standing there, Ye Zan asked strangely.

"No, no, listen clearly!" The alchemist came back to his senses, waved his hand quickly, and then said: "But are you sure you want these things? Use these things to refine the Nine Turns of Soul Resurrection Pill ?”

The alchemist who provided the herbal medicine also specifically emphasized the nine-turn soul-returning pill, thinking that Ye Zan might not understand what he was trying to do.

However, Ye Zan said with certainty: "Yes, these are the things I want. Please send them to me quickly."

"Okay, okay." Seeing that Ye Zan didn't listen to the advice, the alchemist had no choice but to nod his head, turned around and left the square, searching the city for what Ye Zan wanted. After all, these things are very common in the secular world and are not valuable, but here is not the secular world, so it is difficult to get them together quickly.

Seeing that someone was looking for something, Ye Zan was not in a hurry. He folded his arms in front of his chest and watched the others making elixirs quite leisurely.

"Junior, do you want to blame your final failure on not being able to find those things? I advise you to give up this idea. Your evil methods will not save you this time!" Jin Hongze was processing. His own herbal medicine, he said to Ye Zan with a sneer.

After Jin Hongze said this, some people in the audience actually believed it, and there was a burst of joking cries. Some asked Ye Zan to admit defeat early, while others asked Ye Zan to go back to the North. Anyway, in their eyes, Ye Zan was just a practitioner of the Foundation Establishment Realm, so naturally they didn't need to worry too much.

"Haha, you already said it's a crooked way. How can you call it a crooked way if I let you know what to do!" Ye Zan said indifferently. As for those people below, he didn't care even more. Anyway, as long as the final elixir was refined, the people who were eating melons would immediately turn the tide.

After waiting for almost an hour, the alchemist who provided the herbal medicine finally returned to the high platform and took out those things next to Ye Zan. Thirty kilograms of spirits can only be packed into a few jars, and thirty kilograms of cat's ear grass are not piled high, but when everything is piled together, it is quite spectacular.

Ye Zan took a look and saw that everything was correct, so he nodded to the alchemist and said, "Yes, that's all. How much did it cost? Do you want me to give it to you?"

"No, no need, the piece of gold has not been used up." The alchemist waved his hand quickly and said.

Ye Zan started refining the elixir. As he said before, it was really a wicked way. He poured thirty kilograms of strong liquor into the elixir furnace as soon as he started.

In fact, if Ye Zan had used his own method, which was the previous alchemy method, there would be no need for such trouble. But now, the question says to reduce the difficulty, but the implication is that others can also refine it. As a result, Ye Zan naturally could no longer use the original method and could only return to laboratory preparation.

Of course, laboratory preparation can also be combined with alchemy techniques. After all, Ye Zan actually wanted the alcohol for these thirty kilograms of liquor, and using the alchemy furnace and several alchemy techniques could replace the technological distillation equipment. The same principle applies to other chemical reactions, using elixirs to replace various equipment.

Thirty kilograms of spirits were quickly refined into very pure alcohol. Then Ye Zan put some herbs into the alchemy furnace and soaked them in alcohol to release the ingredients.

Originally, no one believed that Ye Zan could really use those things to make pills. But seeing that Ye Zan seemed to be doing well, everyone couldn't help but feel curious, and the discussion gradually became quieter.

The alchemy was continuing, everyone on the high platform was busy, and Ye Zan seemed particularly busy. Because his alchemy method, while reducing the difficulty, also means increasing the complexity.

Various herbs were put into the alchemy furnace by Ye Zan, and then they were refined into liquids of different colors, taken out, and put into the wine jar where the strong liquor was originally placed. Gradually, the piles of herbs with unknown uses turned into piles of waste and jars containing various liquids.

Then, Ye Zan emptied the alchemy furnace and began to pour the liquid into the alchemy furnace in a special order. At the same time, he began to play out the alchemy formulas one after another, making the runes on the alchemy furnace brighter and brighter. It seemed that he really started to refine the alchemy at this time.

Time passed quickly, and with the sound of the elixir, Yan Xinghe took the lead in opening the furnace. A dozen middle-grade nine-turn soul-returning elixirs flew out of the elixir furnace and landed in the prepared jade box. The Nine-Transformation Soul-Returning Pill itself is a master-level pill, so being able to refine a mid-grade pill shows that Yan Xinghe's attainments are pretty good.

After Yan Xinghe, the other two alchemy masters also opened the furnace to collect alchemy. Just looking at the expressions of the two of them, it seemed that they were not very satisfied with the elixirs they had made. One made half and half of middle-grade and low-grade pills, while the other made hundreds of low-grade pills.

Li Ziliang's alchemy furnace buzzed, and suddenly a cloud of black smoke rose up. The runes on the alchemy furnace dimmed, and it turned out that the refining had failed.

Jin Hongze looked at a few people, his face became more and more interested, and he suddenly shouted lowly and quickly shot out a series of alchemy techniques in his hand. As he moved, the alchemy furnace began to buzz, and the runes on the alchemy furnace glowed brightly. Soon, a cloud of alchemy energy spurted out from the pores of the alchemy furnace and formed a ball in the sky, which could not be dispersed by the wind.

"Open!" Jin Hongze's hand changed the elixir formula, and the lid of the elixir furnace was lifted up, and more than a dozen elixirs flew out in the smoke. You can see from a distance that among the dozen or so elixirs, there are five or six that are shining with silver light. They have obviously reached the highest quality standards.
