Chapter 289 Alchemy Competition
Yaodan stood up slowly, looked at the crowd and said, "Now that the appetizers are over, now comes the highlight of the Pharmacopoeia. Contestants who are confident are invited to enter."
"I have heard about the name of Pharmacopoeia for a long time. I will definitely get the title of the number one alchemist in the mainland today."
Hun Xuzi said, already coming to the scene like a ghost, his laughter full of arrogance and domineering.
"snort!"
Elder Wan Huo snorted coldly, looked at Hun Xuzi without giving in, and said, "My Medicine Clan is named after medicine, and the title of the best alchemist in the world will naturally remain in our Medicine Clan."
Seeing Elder Wanhuo appear, everyone in the Yao Clan cheered.
In any case, this is the Medicine Clan, and they naturally believe that the best alchemist in the world should belong to their Medicine Clan.
"Although I don't think much about such a false reputation, it would be a shame if it was taken away by your soul clan."
Old Shennong was suspended in the air. He really didn't have a good look at people like the Soul Clan, who were neither human nor ghosts. They captured souls every day and often harmed the alchemists.
Moreover, Hun Xuzi was a person who deceived his master and destroyed his ancestors. When he hid his identity and entered the Dan Pagoda, he almost killed the Dan Pagoda ancestor.
"With so many alchemy masters gathering together, Xiao also wants to see how far his alchemy skills have reached."
Xiao Tian chuckled, and in a flash, he was already in the sky.
"Xiao Tian?"
Hun Xuzi took a deep look at Xiao Tian. He still knew about this rising star.
However, although the opponent's fighting spirit talent is strong, his medicine refining talent may not be comparable to his own.
"Now that everyone is here, let's get started. I can't wait."
Hun Xuzi smiled coldly, waved his sleeves, and black flames surged out overwhelmingly, and immediately in front of him, they condensed into a black fire cauldron with a height of one hundred feet.
Vaguely, there was a strange devouring power coming from the fire cauldron.
"Void Swallowing Flame?"
Seeing the black flames appear, Elder Wanhuo and Old Shennong both stared at each other.
Xiao Tian was not surprised by this, it was just a void swallowing Yanzi fire.
Hun Xuzi looked at the three of them and said, "Summon all the strange fires in your bodies. My Void Swallowing Flame is very coveted!"
"If you want to swallow our strange fire, you have to see if you have this ability!"
Elder Wanhuo snorted coldly, and then a gust of light black wind suddenly roared out of his sleeves, and then spun rapidly in mid-air.
Although it looks like wind, it exudes extremely high temperatures. If you look carefully, you will find that this wind is condensed by countless small flames.
"Nine Nether Wind Flames!"
Xiao Tian recognized Yi Huo's identity instantly.
It is the strange fire that ranks tenth on the list of strange fires, even higher than Yao Lao's Bone Spirit Cold Fire.
"Old Man Wanhuo, you are becoming more and more proficient in using the Nine Nether Wind Flame..."
Seeing the flame summoned by Elder Wanhuo, Old Shennong couldn't help laughing. He lightly touched the void with his crutch, and suddenly there was no fire and spontaneous combustion.
A wisp of liquid-like green flame rose slowly, and finally rose up in the storm. The green liquid sea of fire filled the air, and there were even layers of mist rising.
In those mist, countless strange medicinal materials grow slowly, filling the air with a moving breath of life.
This is the fifth-ranked creature's flame on the list of strange fires.
This strange fire is different from other strange fires. Although it has insufficient destructive power, it possesses extremely terrifying power of life.
According to rumors, when this strange fire spreads, you only need to put the seeds of medicinal materials into it, and those seeds will sprout and grow quickly.
It can be said that after possessing this strange fire, you only need to have enough seeds to obtain a steady stream of medicinal materials, which can be said to be most suitable for alchemists.
In addition, due to the life force of this strange fire, the lifespan of those who obtain it will be increased many times, even as much as those of Warcraft that are famous for their lifespan.
Just like this, when the flame of life appeared, the eyes of all the people in the world became hot.
After all, few people can help but be interested in longevity.
"It turns out to be the flame of living things, old man Shennong, you are quite blessed!"
Elder Wanhuo spoke enviously.
You must know that this creature's flame can also take shape, and it has extremely high intelligence.
Normally, it would not appear in the form of flames at all, but would turn into various medicinal materials. Most people passing by it might not be able to recognize it.
"It was just a fluke."
Old Shennong smiled and stroked his beard, then looked at Xiao Tian and asked, "I heard that little Xiao Tian has subdued the legendary Pure Lotus Demon Fire. Is this true or false?"
"Of course it's true."
Xiao Tian nodded, and then a flame villain appeared from his body.
"This...is this?"
"Spirit of strange fire?"
After seeing the flame villain, everyone present looked moved.
Especially the alchemists, all of them were almost crazy with envy.
Although the strange fires between heaven and earth all possess some spiritual intelligence, when they are refined by humans, their spiritual intelligence will also be erased.
Only when the alien fire is cultivated to a certain level, will the alien fire spirit be reborn.
The spirit of the strange fire is connected with the alchemist and can perfectly control the strange fire. With its assistance, the success rate of refining the medicine will be greatly improved.
"Little friend Xiao Tian is really good at it. Back then, I tried to subdue the demon fire, but I was almost left behind by it..."
Old Shennong stroked his beard and sighed.
Elder Wanhuo frowned and said doubtfully: "In this strange fire spirit, I also feel the breath of other strange fires. I am afraid that I have obtained more than one kind of strange fire, right?"
Xiao Tian proudly said: "Elder Wanhuo has a good eye. I also obtained Qinglian Earth Core Fire, Sea Heart Flame, Fallen Heart Flame, Bone Spirit Cold Fire, Three Thousand Flame Fire and other strange fires."
With his current strength, he is not afraid of exposing the strange fire he possesses, let alone the existence of Burning Jue.
"Being able to hold so many strange fires at the same time, it seems that you have practiced the techniques in the ruins!"
Hun Xuzi's eyes flickered, with cold light and fiery surging within them.
Master Yao's younger brother Mu Gu is from the Soul Palace, so the Soul Clan naturally knows about the Burning Jue.
Originally, they had not taken this strange fire to heart, and only thought it was a technique that could accommodate multiple strange fires. But now it seems that Xiao Tian's cultivation level has improved so quickly, and it is definitely inseparable from this technique.
Yaodan withdrew his envious gaze, and then said: "If the four of you are well prepared, let's start refining the pill!"
Hearing this, Elder Wanhuo, Elder Shennong and Xiao Tian began to condense the cauldron of strange fire at the same time.
The four people were located in four directions and started refining medicine.
Old Shennong waved his sleeves, and countless medicinal seeds appeared overwhelmingly, and then submerged into the sea of fire.
Immediately afterwards, under the stimulation of the Yan of Life, these medicinal seeds turned into individual medicinal plants in a very short period of time.
This scene is naturally extremely shocking.
Xiao Tian retracted his gaze, and with a wave of his sleeve, countless medicinal materials also flew out, and then they were all submerged into the medicine cauldron.
At his current realm and soul level, there is no need to purify each plant at all.
"Huh? He actually wants to refine so many medicinal materials at the same time?"
Seeing this, even the Fighting Saints of the Yao Clan exclaimed.
Although they would do this when refining sixth- and seventh-grade elixirs, they were currently refining ninth-grade elixirs, and they absolutely did not dare to do this.
With the assistance of the spirit of strange fire, Xiao Tian was the first to complete the purification.
Then, he started condensing the pill.
Thousands of medicinal essences were fused together and immediately emitted astonishing energy fluctuations. Even the flame medicine cauldron vibrated under the impact of this energy.
Not long after Xiao Tian condensed the elixir, Hunxu Zi had also been refined.
He poured many of the refined medicinal liquids into the fire cauldron, and then changed his handprint: "Power of heaven and earth, listen to my orders!"
As the words fell, a violent wind suddenly rose between the heaven and the earth, and the vast power of the heaven and earth came overwhelmingly and was swallowed up by his void swallowing flames.
"Condensing the power of heaven and earth to refine elixirs, he actually wants to refine a ninth-grade mysterious elixir?"
As soon as this movement came out, many alchemists exclaimed in surprise.
"snort!"
Elder Wanhuo snorted coldly, and also shouted: "The power of heaven and earth, condense!"
Seeing this, the people from the Medicine Clan became excited.
"Since you all want to refine Xuandan, I can't lag behind!"
Old Shennong laughed and began to gather the power of heaven and earth.
"Xuan Dan, I can do it too!"
Xiao Tian chuckled and also gathered a force of heaven and earth.
In an instant, the power of heaven and earth was divided into four parts, and then each one was continuously drained away by the four people.
At this moment, the people in the square were completely shocked.
None of them thought that these four people were actually refining the ninth-grade Xuandan.
You know, in the past hundred years, there has not been a ninth-grade Xuandan!
Of course, some of those who knew the details knew that not everyone could refine it.
Just like Elder Wanhuo, the success rate of refining the ninth-grade Xuandan is even less than 20%.
Although Old Shennong is taller, it will not exceed 50%.
As for Hun Xuzi and Xiao Tian, they don't know.
However, if four people refine the ninth-grade Xuandan at the same time, the power of heaven and earth here is simply not enough to refine it.
So in the end no one can succeed.
In this way, although no one will win, no one will lose.
…
This lasted for three days, and the energy between heaven and earth was sucked in by the four people.
This level of suction has caused the many medicinal materials on the medicine mountain to turn yellow, and it is obvious that their energy has also been sucked in.
In the end, those medicine clan fighting saints even had to take action and set a seal on the sea of medicine, for fear that these medicinal materials would be sucked to death.
There is nothing surprising about this.
According to rumors, every time the ninth-grade Xuandan is born, it will be desolate.
"The energy of heaven and earth within a radius of ten thousand miles is not enough. It seems that we are going to fail..."
Feeling the disappearance of energy between heaven and earth, many people frowned.
Souls at the Dzogchen level of the Heavenly Realm can spread over thousands of miles at most.
"Ten thousand miles is not enough, then twenty thousand miles!"
Xiao Tian chuckled, and the power of his soul continued to extend, and began to condense the power of heaven and earth thousands of miles away.
"Crash!"
Seeing the power of heaven and earth coming in stronger than before, the people around were immediately stunned.
"You actually controlled thousands of miles away?"
"This...could it be that Xiao Tian has an emperor-level soul?"
"..."
At this moment, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Xiao Tian.
"snort!"
Hun Xuzi's eyes flashed, and he immediately slapped his palm on the fire cauldron in front of him.
Immediately afterwards, three black flame pillars, one large, two small, burst out, and finally turned into three wildly rotating black holes above Xiao Tian's three fire cauldrons.
The terrifying devouring power emerged from it, trying to devour the energy of the three people.
"Hun Xuzi, how dare you!"
Seeing this, Elder Wanhuo and Old Shennong both looked gloomy.
They roared angrily, and the Nine Nether Wind Flames and the Flames of Life swept out, heading towards the black hole.
However, they were not able to stop each other. Instead, some of their own strange fires were swallowed up.
"Just because you want to stop the Void Swallowing Flame is simply a fool's errand!"
Hun Xuzi sneered and immediately increased his devouring force.
"Are you the only one who knows how to suck?"
Xiao Tian spoke indifferently, and immediately summoned the Devouring Ancestral Talisman.
The next moment, a huge black hole appeared out of thin air and swallowed the three small black holes.
Then, the huge black hole swallowed Hun Xuzi's medicine cauldron.
"The power of devouring?"
Seeing this situation, Hun Xuzi couldn't help but exclaimed: "How come you have the power of devouring?"
Soon, he suddenly realized: "I know, the Soul Palace was destroyed by you. No wonder you have the power of devouring, no wonder your soul power is so powerful?"
"Yes, the Soul Palace was destroyed by me."
Xiao Tian admitted it directly.
"What? The Soul Palace was actually destroyed by Xiao Tian?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked.
No matter what, the Soul Palace has the power of three fighting saints, and there is even a five-star fighting saint among them.
Especially, behind the Soul Palace is the behemoth Soul Clan.
Such a force, Xiao Tian actually destroyed it immediately.
Hun Xuzi narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a cold voice: "Xiao Tian, if you ruin my soul clan's millennium plan, just wait to be destroyed by my soul clan!"
"I'm afraid you won't make it!"
With a thought in Xiao Tian's mind, the spirit of the strange fire immediately flew out, and together with the Devouring Ancestral Talisman, began to devour the Void Swallowing Flame Fire.
Although this is not an ordinary sub-fire, but an earth sub-fire second only to the Void Swallowing Flame itself.
But how can a mere earth fire withstand the different fire spirits and the Devouring Ancestral Talisman that are a fusion of multiple heaven and earth fires.
"You dare to devour Di Zihuo, who swallows nothingness and swallows fire, you are finished!"
As Hun Xuzi finished speaking, bursts of shrill screams immediately rang out from the heaven and the earth.
"Whoosh!"
The next moment, everyone saw that endless black flames seeped out from the void and spread overwhelmingly, covering the whole world.
"This is...the real Void Swallowing Flame!"
Yao Dan, the leader of the Medicine Clan, looked at the black flames that appeared one after another, but his pupils suddenly shrank.
He naturally knows how powerful the Void Swallowing Flame is. In the battle that destroyed the Xiao clan a thousand years ago, the Void Swallowing Flame showed the cultivation of an eighth-grade fighting saint. Now that thousands of years have passed, the opponent is probably even more terrifying.
A strong man with at least eight-star Dou Sage cultivation who is close to the Soul Clan appears in the medicine world. It is not that simple to think about.
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival
