Chapter 381
Against the Heavens
"There are so many talented people. I didn't expect someone could improve the recipe for the Ice and Fire Pill. If he can make it, his score will probably be the highest among all the people."
Long Xiaoyao looked at Qin Dan with surprise, and a slightly solemn expression appeared on his face.
Suddenly, he saw Feng Jiu beside him also making a move, and he immediately looked over there. Compared to Qin Dan, this talent with the surname Feng was the one he really wanted to pay attention to.
Fengjiu just waved her hand gently behind her, and a large amount of spiritual medicine flew out from the storage ring and flew towards him quickly.
However, all the spiritual medicines that flew into the air were covered by a gray fog, making it impossible to see the types of spiritual medicines in the gray fog, let alone know what kind of elixir he was going to refine.
Feng Tiancheng frowned slightly. Although he couldn't see clearly what was in the gray fog, he saw that it was spiritual medicine taken from the third-grade spiritual medicine area. He must be going to refine a third-grade pill.
The difficulty of refining a fourth-grade elixir would undoubtedly be greater than that of refining a third-grade elixir, and the points obtained would also be higher. He certainly hoped that Fengjiu would refine a fourth-grade elixir that would give her a greater chance of winning.
"Is he unwilling to bully others with a fourth-grade elixir, or is he intentionally hiding his abilities?" Feng Tiancheng frowned slightly and couldn't help thinking in his heart.
At this time, Long Xuan was also staring at Feng Jiu. Even though Feng Jiu intended to keep the recipe secret and wrapped the elixir in a mysterious gray mist, it still could not hide from his divine eyes.
This was a kind of elixir he had never seen before. At first, he was unable to judge the effect of the elixir by the materials. Fengjiu seemed to have taken away a lot of spiritual medicines that were irrelevant to the elixir recipe, and burned these irrelevant spiritual medicines in the alchemy furnace.
But his little tricks could be hidden from others, but not from Long Xuan's eyes of insight. Through the remaining elixirs, Long Xuan deduced the effects of this elixir based on pharmacological reasoning.
First of all, this kind of pill is extremely difficult to refine. It requires nine people using nine different kinds of spiritual fire to refine the pill. If one of them fails to coordinate well, all the efforts will be wasted.
Fengjiu had to do the work of nine people alone, so you can imagine how difficult it was. If this pill was refined by one person alone, the difficulty would definitely not be as simple as adding nine ones together. Its difficulty would probably be greater than that of the Ice and Fire Polar Pill.
The effect of this pill seems to be suppression, suppressing everything in the body, including the terrifying things such as heavenly fire and heavenly water.
"This pill will be of great use to me." Long Xuan's eyes focused, and thinking of the fact that there was still a Tianshui in Lei Zhao that he had not subdued, he immediately wrote down the recipe of this pill.
Although the others could not see the effect of this pill, it was enough to see its difficulty.
After seeing nine different kinds of spiritual fires appear under Fengjiu's alchemy furnace, everyone was surprised and turned their eyes over here.
Whether it is spiritual fire or heavenly fire, it is best for each person to have only one.
When spiritual fire or heavenly fire meet, they will devour each other. The more amount stored in the body, the more dangerous it is.
It is already difficult to suppress nine kinds of spiritual fire in the body at the same time without causing conflict, let alone controlling nine different spiritual fires to make pills at the same time?
Not to mention how difficult it is to do nine things at once, just making nine kinds of spiritual fire meet at the same time and keep them in a stable state is already as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Seeing that Fengjiu actually used nine different kinds of spiritual fire to make pills, the whole audience immediately gasped.
"Haha! Awesome! Awesome! Controlling nine kinds of spiritual fire to refine pills at the same time is much more difficult than refining ice and fire polar pills."
"I think the highest score in this round must go to this mysterious genius of our Feng family, hahahaha..."
Feng Tiancheng laughed wildly and looked at Long Xiaoyao with a smug look.
Long Xiaoyao didn't pay any attention to him. He stared at Feng Jiu in the square with extremely serious eyes. The more he looked, the heavier his heart felt.
This person's alchemy skills don't look like something a third-grade alchemist can do.
Although this person was refining a third-grade elixir, judging from his alchemy technique, Long Xiaoyao felt that he was a fourth-grade alchemist.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, his heart tightened and he secretly sighed that something was wrong.
If this person is really a fourth-grade alchemist, then the Long family is bound to lose this gamble.
No matter how high the alchemy skills of a third-grade alchemist are, how can he possibly beat a fourth-grade alchemist?
He took a deep breath, feeling heavy-hearted, and had no intention of talking to Feng Tiancheng.
At this time in the square, Long Xuan finally stopped paying attention to Feng Jiu. Since all the powerful enemies had already started to refine pills, he also knew what kind of pills these strong opponents were going to refine, so he was completely confident at this time.
He thought about it, and finally decided to use the big pot alchemy technique to refine the Soul Gathering Pill.
When he was on the Great Solitary Island, he tried to use the Big Pot Alchemy Technique to refine high-level breakthrough pills, but found that the number of portions that could be stacked was limited, and it was not very efficient to use.
The Big Pot Pill Alchemy method is not suitable for refining extremely powerful pills. It is only suitable for refining low-grade pills where the number of portions can be stacked crazily, even up to tens of thousands.
Long Xuan also wanted to use the Big Pot Alchemy Technique to refine the Ice and Fire Polar Pill or the Breaking King Pill, but the situation did not allow it. At this time, he could only challenge the Gathering Spirit Pill, the most difficult of the first-grade pills.
Anyway, the scoring criteria for this competition is based entirely on difficulty, not the quality of the elixir. As long as the first-grade elixir you refine is difficult enough, you can get the highest score.
He just couldn't believe that he could refine 100,000 Spirit Gathering Pills in one furnace and still not get the highest score.
Long Xuan took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, and hooked his finger towards the distance. Suddenly, a large amount of spiritual medicine flew towards him.
After all, he was a favorite to win the championship having scored full marks in the first round of eliminations. His move at this moment immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the audience.
But after seeing that what were flying into the air were pieces of first-grade spiritual medicine, everyone frowned and whispers broke out among the crowd.
"What's going on? Why are they all first-grade spiritual medicines? Although first-grade spiritual medicines are sometimes used to balance the medicinal power when refining third-grade spiritual medicines, it shouldn't be necessary to use so many first-grade spiritual medicines, right?"
"There are no third-grade or second-grade spiritual medicines among the spiritual medicines flying towards him. It seems that he really intends to refine first-grade medicine. What is he doing? No matter how difficult it is to refine a first-grade medicine, how difficult can it be?"
"It seems that everything flying in the air is the material for the Soul Gathering Pill. Could he be trying to make the Soul Gathering Pill?"
"The Gathering Spirit Pill is a breakthrough pill for Gu cultivators in the Gathering Spirit Stage. It is indeed very difficult to refine. It is the most difficult among the first-grade pills. Even second-grade alchemists find it difficult to refine it. But a pill of this difficulty is totally not enough here, right?"
The crowd was in complete chaos, the discussions began to grow louder and louder, and all the spectators looked confused.
Long Xiaoyao frowned and looked at him, revealing a puzzled expression. However, not long after, his expression suddenly froze, and he murmured in a somewhat inappropriate manner: "No! No! The number of spiritual medicines is wrong! What on earth is he going to do?"
"Does he want to throw tens of thousands of Soul Gathering Pill ingredients into an alchemy furnace and refine 100,000 Soul Gathering Pills in one go?"
Long Xiaoyao's pupils suddenly shrank, as if he was frightened. He stood up from his seat in an instant and exclaimed, "What a crazy idea! This method is simply unheard of. Is this kid going to defy the will of heaven?"
"How is this possible? How can this be done? No one has ever made elixirs this way from ancient times to the present!" Feng Tiancheng was horrified, his eyes full of disbelief, and he stood up from his seat instantly.
The judges behind the two men were so shocked by this scene that they stood up in groups, their eyes dull and their expressions extremely shocked.
At this time, all the spectators in the venue had already noticed that something was wrong, because there were too many spiritual medicines flying into the air, which could be described as overwhelming. The overwhelming spiritual medicines blocked the sky and flew madly into a silver alchemy furnace. There was even a storage ring that flew directly over to the sky above the silver alchemy furnace and madly poured the massive amount of spiritual medicine in the ring into the furnace.
As more and more elixirs flew in, the silver alchemy furnace began to grow bigger and bigger.
Gradually, a huge alchemy furnace loomed over the contestants. Many contestants felt the sky suddenly darken, so they subconsciously raised their heads and looked up at the sky.
When they saw the exaggeratedly large alchemy furnace above their heads and the endless spiritual medicines rushing into the furnace, they slowly opened their mouths wide.
Suddenly, the alchemy furnace in front of them made a muffled sound. Due to their distraction, a furnace of top-quality elixir was completely wasted.
At this moment, if the crowd still couldn't figure out what Long Xuan was going to do, they would be really stupid.
The crowd that was noisy just now suddenly fell silent.
Everyone stared at the huge alchemy furnace in amazement, their mouths wide open, and were extremely shocked.
There was actually someone who stacked up tens of thousands of materials for the Spirit Gathering Pill and refined them at the same time. This person is simply crazy. How can you refine pills like this? Refining pills like this will cause the furnace to explode.
If tens of thousands of materials were piled together, how huge would the power be if the furnace exploded?
Thinking of this, the crowd turned pale, their eyes filled with fear, and after coming to their senses, they ran out frantically.
The crowd of onlookers began to flee on a large scale. However, at this time, the square was crowded with people. The chaos caused by the mad escape of a large number of people can be imagined. The competition venue was in chaos in an instant. I don’t know how many people were knocked down and there were shouts and curses.
"Fuck! This lunatic!"
"Run! He's crazy!"
Many contestants in the square turned pale when they saw this scene. They stopped refining the elixirs and ran frantically to the stage, fearing that they would be blown to death if they ran too slowly.
Although this alchemy competition is very important, how can it be more important than life?
Long Xuan's move successfully scared away a large number of alchemists. Only the brave alchemists stayed where they were, gritting their teeth and holding on.
Long Yuyao turned around and looked at him, yelling "Mad man!"
But she still did not get up and run away. She gritted her teeth and continued to refine the pill in her hand.
There is only one chance to refine the elixir in this round of competition, so she can't just run away if she wants to.
"Fuck! Is he crazy? Who taught him to make pills like this!
"Damn it! How can you make an elixir like this? If you want to die, don't take me with you!"
Feng Shuang and Wang Wu were also shocked when they saw the huge alchemy furnace in the sky, and then they started cursing.
If such a large alchemy furnace exploded, it could really kill them! How could they not be afraid? What if there was a slight mistake...
Both of them showed ugly expressions.
But they really didn't dare to run at this time. The outcome of this game was related to the fortune of their own family. How could they just leave behind a furnace of pills and run away? At this time, they could only grit their teeth and hold on, praying that he would not make any mistakes.
Qin Dan stared at the huge alchemy furnace in the sky, his mouth twitched and he said in shock:
"Tens of thousands of spiritual medicines are stacked together to make pills. One furnace can directly make hundreds of thousands of pills. What a creative idea! Why didn't I think of it!"
"This is the first time I've heard that elixirs can be refined this way. You really opened my eyes!"
"Interesting! Interesting! It's so interesting! I'm going to make pills this way in the future!" Qin Dan shouted excitedly.
Feng Jiu also raised her head to look at the incredible scene, slowly revealing a solemn expression. She turned to look at him and said in a deep voice: "Stacking tens of thousands of spiritual medicines, what a bold and crazy idea! This is the first time I have seen someone dare to make pills like this!"
"There are at least millions of spiritual herbs in your alchemy furnace. If there is a mistake in even one of these spiritual herbs, it may cause a chain reaction and cause the furnace to explode. You are almost certain to fail if you refine the alchemy in this way. Aren't you afraid of being blown to death?"
With his strength, he would naturally not be afraid of the explosion caused by the alchemy furnace.
However, he has now discovered that the way this boy refines the elixir is much more difficult than his Nine Flames Overlord Body Pill. Isn't it a bit too arrogant for him to refine a third-grade elixir without wanting to bully others?
If this kid can really refine the elixir against all odds, his score will undoubtedly be higher than mine.
Long Xuan did not answer him. He concentrated all his attention on refining the Soul Gathering Pill. Using this method to refine the pill, even he did not dare to be distracted in the slightest.
As one spiritual medicine after another flew into the alchemy furnace, the moment the spiritual medicine flew into the alchemy furnace, it was instantly melted into spiritual liquid by the high temperature inside the furnace.
Under the control of countless souls, he could refine the elixir extremely quickly.
These are all first-grade spiritual medicines. It is easy for him, a third-grade alchemist, to refine first-grade spiritual medicines.
Even though there were millions of spiritual herbs in the alchemy furnace, his speed in refining the Spirit Gathering Pill was not slow. The time required to refine the pill using the Big Pot Alchemy Technique was about the same as that under normal circumstances. Saving time was also the characteristic of the Big Pot Alchemy Technique.
And how slow could the speed of refining a first-grade elixir be? Not long after, Long Xuan came from behind and surpassed all the alchemists, becoming the first to succeed in refining the elixir.
Under the control of his countless souls, the vast amount of spiritual liquid in the furnace began to condense into pills one after another.
Before long, the alchemy furnace was filled with pills, each pill was round and full, there were as many as 100,000 of them!
One furnace can produce 100,000 pills, which is simply terrifying.
It was at this time, perhaps because what Long Xuan did was too outrageous, the sky was suddenly covered by dark clouds, and strong winds began to blow on the ground, making it impossible for everyone to open their eyes. The pill he refined actually caused a strange phenomenon, and everyone was dumbfounded.
But the dark clouds did not bring down thunder after all, which made Long Xuan breathe a sigh of relief.
"Wake it up for me!"
Long Xuan suddenly shouted and slammed the alchemy furnace heavily.
"bump!"
The lid of the huge alchemy furnace was lifted, and the 100,000 pills inside were shaken into the sky.
For a moment, the sky was filled with pills, as if it was raining pills.
Countless people looked at the sky with fiery eyes and breathed rapidly. With so many Soul Gathering Pills, how many Marrow Cleansing Stage Gu Cultivators would be produced?
Everyone's scalp tingled and they were completely uneasy...
This boy is really going to defy the will of heaven... (End of this chapter)
