Chapter 1837 Success or failure is here
The time of day flies.
"Master, it's dawn and the alchemy competition is about to begin. Should we continue to wait?"
Master Yan Ri and others, who were cross-legged outside the Golden Palace, were awakened by the soft morning light. Seeing the sky getting brighter, Master Yan Ri asked in a low voice.
"National Master, I'll leave it to you. Let's continue to wait here!"
After waiting for a night, the silver-haired old woman had not appeared for a long time, which made the Fire Spirit Emperor a little uneasy. She didn't want to leave the Golden Palace and whispered.
"Okay, then I'll host this alchemy competition!"
Master Yan Ri took a deep breath, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and slowly stood up and said.
"The national teacher, if possible, create some difficulty for Yuwen Qingling and Xi Feng, and be sure not to let them enter the top 30!"
The deep eyes of Ziyang King flashed sharp eyes and said in a low voice.
"Don't worry, Prince, I will!"
Because Gu Tiange became the public enemy of the Yan Ri royal family, Yuwen Qingling and the others were implicated and opposed.
When the anxious Yan Ri National Master rushed to the Fire Spirit Hall with several royal masters, the hundreds of pharmacists who were promoted arrived early, bathed in the morning light, and waited patiently.
"Xi Feng, where did Brother Gu go? He won't have any trouble!"
Although he successfully advanced to the finals, because Gu Tiange disappeared, Yuwen Qingling and the others seemed to have lost their backbone and became anxious.
"Brother Gu is a god. I believe no one in the Yan Ri Palace can hurt him!"
Xi Feng blindly worships Gu Tiange and never believes that he will have an accident.
"Hope!"
Yuwen Qingling took a deep breath, tried to get rid of the distracting thoughts in her heart, calmed herself down, and waited for the start of the game.
"Everyone is quiet!" Master Yan Ri appeared on the Central Jade Platform and glanced at Yuwen Qingling and Xi Feng in the crowd and said: "Today is the last item. On the day of the alchemy competition, those who won the top 30 will represent our Yan Ri Kingdom to participate in the ancient medicine ceremony held by the Ancient God Kingdom."
"Those who enter the top ten will receive a heavy reward, and those who are in the top three will be awarded an official position in person."
"Okay, please follow me!"
As he said that, Master Yan Ri brought a hundred contestants into the extremely warm assessment hall.
"In front of you, there are three pill recipes of different levels and corresponding pill refining herbs. The results of the pill refining competition are comprehensively evaluated based on the pill refining level, quality, and pill refining speed."
"Okay, your names are on the alchemy table. If you find your name, you can start choosing a pill recipe. After one stick of incense, you can hold an alchemy competition!" Master Yan Ri announced loudly.
There are not many five-star pharmacists who came to participate this time, and because of Gu Tiange, at least two-thirds of them were unable to participate, which greatly reduced the difficulty of Yuwen Qingling and the others' challenge.
It can be said that if they can refine the lower-grade ancient Taoist pill, they can make it to the top five and have more hope of winning the championship.
"Can I succeed in Gudao Dan?"
Looking at the pill recipe in front of him, the pure and lovely Yuwen Qingling frowned tightly, and hesitated.
After all, if she fails, she will lose the qualification to go to the ancient gods and participate in the ancient medicine ceremony.
"Oh, it's better to be safer and refine the best Taoist elixir!"
After pondering, Yuwen Qingling did not dare to challenge the ancient Taoist elixir and chose to refine the best Taoist elixir.
However, Xi Feng kept in mind Gu Tiange's words and Yuwen Qingling's promise, and chose to challenge the refining of the ancient Taoist elixir without hesitation.
After choosing the pill recipe, the remaining pill recipe disappeared.
Everyone seized the limited time and began to select spiritual medicines to prepare for the next alchemy competition.
"Hit, there's something wrong with this herb!"
Because it integrates the inheritance and memory of the Wanhuo Immortal Master, Xi Feng has a strong ability to debate medicine. When he selected 51 types of spiritual herbs that refined the lower-grade ancient Taoist elixir from many herbs, he found that four of the main medicines were problematic, which was fake medicine.
"Why are there fake medicines?" Xi Feng's face changed slightly, and a thought that made him uneasy flashed through his mind: "Is something wrong with Brother Gu?"
Not only did the herbs that Xifeng elixir have fake medicines, but the herbs that Yuwen Qingling refines the best Dao Dan are also mixed with three fake medicines.
With Xi Feng and Yuwen Qingling's alchemy ability, it is already a bit difficult to refine ancient Taoist elixirs and top-quality Taoist elixirs.
If fake medicine is mixed in the process of alchemy, they have almost no chance of success.
"National Master, there is something wrong with the spiritual medicine in front of me!"
Yuwen Qingling bit his lips lightly, looked up at the cold-looking Master Yan Ri, and shouted loudly.
"Yuwen Qingling, the place for assessment is not a place where you can shout loudly. Don't blame my national teacher for driving you out of here!"
Master Yan Ri's face darkened, he glared at Yuwen Qingling, and warned in public.
"I..."
After hearing the warning from Master Yan Ri, Yuwen Qingling's face changed.
At this time, she was basically sure that there was something wrong with her alchemy spiritual herb, and it was Master Yan Ri who did it on purpose.
"Brother Gu, you must not be in trouble!"
While praying for Gu Tiange, Yuwen Qingling was thinking of a solution.
"It seems that we can only use other herbs to replace these four fake medicines!"
After thinking about it, Yuwen Qingling and Xi Feng thought of the alternative method. Although this method is extremely risky, it is the only method they have thought of at present.
"Anyway, bet once!"
Yuwen Qingling and the others took a deep breath and tried to calm themselves down. Combined with the inherited memory of the Wanhuo Immortal Master, they selected herbs that replaced fake medicine among the many herbs.
Soon, a stick of incense passed.
"Okay, I announce that the alchemy competition has officially begun!" Master Yan Ri announced loudly: "You can start refining alchemy. Remember, you only have five hours to refine alchemy. Once the five hours arrive, no one is allowed to refine alchemy."
"Huh, I must succeed."
Xi Feng took a deep breath and summoned the red elixir furnace, used the Vermilion Bird Immortal Alchemy technique, and first refined nine kinds of spiritual medicines that replaced the four fake medicines.
"Spirit!"
A series of harsh birds cries sounded.
Two Vermilion Birds appeared on Xi Feng, Yuwen Qingling's head spit out the scorching half-immortal fire, igniting the alchemy furnace, and refining nine kinds of spiritual medicines.
Soon, nine kinds of spiritual medicine melted and turned into the most pure droplets and suspended in the alchemy furnace.
Nine kinds of spiritual medicines were successfully extracted. Xi Feng and the others threw the spiritual medicines into the boiling alchemy furnace in order according to the inheritance and memory of the Wanhuo Immortal Master, and quickly refined them.
In about half an hour, Yuwen Qingling and the others completed the refining and began to try to condense the pill.
Although they found alternative herbs, they were somewhat affected, greatly increasing the difficulty of refining alchemy and making them feel extremely stressed.
"Flame mark, amplification!"
Xi Feng's realm was too low, and it was too difficult to refine the ancient Taoist elixir. Soon he was unable to do so and had to inspire the flame marks imprinted in his body, amplifying the power of the Vermillion Bird Immortal Pill and the Half Immortal Fire, reducing his pressure.
"Well, Yuwen Qingling and Xi Feng have some skills, but they have not failed yet!"
Master Yan Ri thought that Yuwen Qingling and the others would fail early, but after waiting for nearly two hours, he was quite surprised that the two of them were still calm in refining the alchemy.
"Bang!"
When three hours approached, a loud noise rang out.
A four-star pharmacist failed to control the restless flames, causing the furnace to fail, and he was also injured by the power of the hot flames.
Not long after, another pharmacist failed to refine the alchemy.
In about three and a half hours, only three four-star pharmacists completed the alchemy.
One of them refined the best Dao Pill, and the remaining two of them refined the best Dao Pill, while at least twenty pharmacists failed to refine the alchemy.
As four hours approached, another seventeen people completed the alchemy refining, but nearly sixty pharmacists failed to refine the alchemy.
At this time, only more than twenty people had not completed the alchemy, and all the others ended the competition.
"Huh, there is still one more hour, success or failure is here!"
Yuwen Qingling, Xi Feng took a deep breath, swallowed the water of heavenly secrets contained in his mouth, and prepared to use the Suzaku Spirit Ascension Technique, forcibly sublimate the pill, and make a last try.
Chapter completed!
