Chapter 401
Long Yuyao's Imagination
Two days passed in a flash. On this day, when the other contestants were still racking their brains to come up with the pill formula, Long Yuyao, Feng Shuang and Wang Wu opened their eyes almost at the same time.
The three of them opened their eyes in tacit understanding, a gleam of light flashed in their eyes, they looked at each other, and immediately picked up the paper and pen on the table and began to write down the pill formula they had figured out.
Everyone's expression was full of confidence, and it was obvious that they had realized something extraordinary.
Seeing this scene, the judges who had been drowsy for a long time became alert, smiled, and together directed their soul power to the desks of the three people, staring at what the three people were writing without blinking.
Even though the three hadn't finished writing yet, the judges were so anxious that they didn't want to wait even a moment.
Before long, all the judges looked strange, shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
These three people wrote more than one pill recipe. It is not difficult to see that they obviously created the pill recipe using Long Xuan's pill-combining technique.
This alchemy method has only been out for a short time, but they have already mastered it so quickly and put it into practice. They are truly geniuses, and all the judges were amazed.
After the alchemy technique came into the world, it caused a sensation in the entire alchemy world. Everyone studied it day and night for a period of time, but only a few people could successfully refine the elixir using the technique.
It is extremely difficult to use the alchemy technique to make pills, even for a group of fourth-grade alchemists like them, it is difficult to master it.
You have to know that there is a success rate in alchemy, and the recipe of the alchemy technique requires more than one kind of elixir, which requires gambling on the success rate many times.
Finally, all the pills have to be refined together again, which requires another gamble on the success rate. This step is more difficult and has a lower success rate. If there is a mistake, all the previous efforts will be in vain and a huge amount of materials will be wasted.
With this kind of nesting doll-style alchemy, the success rate of alchemy is far from being reduced by half.
Using this method to make elixirs not only wastes materials, but also has an incredibly low success rate, so few people dare to use the elixir-making method to make elixirs.
Even if a genius succeeds in refining the pill, considering the huge amount of materials wasted in previous failures, the gain would not outweigh the loss.
These three geniuses not only have perfectly mastered this difficult-to-master method of alchemy, they can even create a recipe for it.
This shocked the hundreds of judges, and they couldn't help but sigh inwardly that they were geniuses. The alchemy talent of these three geniuses could be said to be rare in a thousand years.
Unfortunately, these three alchemy geniuses were born at the wrong time. They could have been born in any other era, but happened to be born in the same period as those three monsters.
Even though the pill formula created by the alchemy technique is valuable enough, it is still not good enough compared to those three evildoers.
They were destined to serve as foils to these three evildoers.
Long Yuyao, Feng Shuang, and Wang Wu were in perfect sync. They opened their eyes almost at the same time and finished writing the pill formula almost at the same time.
When the three people finished writing the recipes, the judges could no longer hold back and could not wait to use their soul power to bring the recipes to the judges' seats. The recipes were immediately circulated among all the judges.
Each judge watched with great interest and commented excitedly.
"Wonderful! It's really wonderful. I never thought that the elixir made by the alchemy technique would have such a terrifying medicinal power. It can actually allow a Gu cultivator in the early stage of the Spiritual Sea to have the power of the late stage of the Spiritual Sea in a short period of time. This medicinal power is simply exaggerated."
"Continuously improving two small realms, no other elixir has ever been able to do that before. The elixir-making technique can really create miracles." Long Xiaoyao's face flushed with excitement, and he looked at Long Yuyao with approval. Even he could not create such a wonderful elixir recipe. Princess Yuyao's talent in alchemy has surpassed him, which made him feel like the younger generation is pushing the older generation forward.
Hearing Long Xiaoyao's praise, Long Yuyao raised her head with a proud look in her eyes, like a proud little peacock.
However, Feng Tiancheng's voice came at an inopportune moment: "Humph! What a joke! As the chief alchemist of a country, you only look at the advantages of a pill and not its flaws?"
"This pill called the Soul-Restoring Pill has a huge flaw. Those who take it will only improve their combat power by two small realms in a short period of time. Once the time is up, not only will their realm drop back, but they will also drop one small realm."
"It is not easy for a Gu cultivator to advance to a higher realm. This pill has such a powerful side effect, so its value is naturally greatly discounted."
"The Purple Phoenix Pill developed by Feng Shuang is still more valuable. The Purple Phoenix Pill can purify the blood of the Feng family once. The only drawback is that the cost is too exaggerated, but for those geniuses of the Feng family, it is completely acceptable."
Feng Tiancheng showed a proud look, not forgetting to praise one and step on the other.
Long Xiaoyao put away his smile, looked at him and retorted, "That's wrong. It's normal for pills to have side effects. What kind of pill doesn't have side effects?"
"Although the side effects of the Soul-Restoring Pill are strong, this is a pill that can save your life when facing a strong enemy. Your life is almost gone, so why would you care about losing a small level?"
"It is no exaggeration to say that the Soul-Restoring Pill is a powerful life-saving pill, and life-saving pills are not cheap in the market."
Long Xiaoyao looked at the recipe in Feng Tiancheng's hand and snorted disdainfully, "But the Purple Phoenix Pill in your hand is different. Haha, a pill that purifies the Feng family's bloodline is useless to Gu cultivators of other surnames."
"The high value of the Purple Phoenix Pill is only for you, the Feng clan's Gu cultivator. For Gu cultivators of other clans, the value of the Purple Phoenix Pill is greatly reduced."
"Since this round of competition is scored based on the value of the elixir, I'm sorry, Long Yuyao and Feng Shuang have been tied in the first three rounds. I'm afraid Long Yuyao will be ahead by a few points in this round."
Hearing this, the other judges nodded in agreement. That’s right, if all those present were Feng clan Gu cultivators, then this elixir that could purify the Feng clan’s bloodline would undoubtedly be the most valuable of all.
But most of the judges present were Gu cultivators from other families, and the Purple Phoenix Pill was not very valuable to them, so of course they would not give it too high a score.
Feng Shuang's brain is not very bright. He actually wants to create this kind of pill recipe by himself. What is he thinking? It's a pity. Obviously, his talent in alchemy is not inferior to Long Yuyao, but because of the wrong choice, his score will probably fall behind. All the judges showed regretful expressions.
Long Yuyao looked at Feng Shuang with a proud look. Feng Shuang's face turned pale at this moment.
When he created his own elixir recipe, he was mainly thinking about his own benefit and actually ignored this issue, which led to a big mistake.
Feng Tiancheng's face turned pale. He was just being self-centered and judging the value of a pill recipe based on his own needs.
But his complexion soon returned to normal.
It doesn’t matter that Feng Shuang’s score is behind. With Patriarch Fentian around, Feng Shuang’s score is no longer important to the Feng family.
As long as the score of the Burning Heaven Patriarch is higher than that of the Long Clan Alchemist, the Feng Clan will win the bet. (End of this chapter)
