"See the mechanical bird on your pill refinement platform? It will faithfully record your every action. If anyone violates the rules, you'll be eliminated immediately. At that time, it will let out an ear-piercing cry!
In addition, the first round's assessment time is only half an hour. If you still can't complete within half an hour, you'll be eliminated as well!
Pay attention to the time on the artifact clock. Don't panic. "
Talking until here, Medicine King Sun Bu looked at Ji Qing. The following words would be announced by Ji Qing.
Ji Qing looked at everyone, stood up, and said in a clear voice, "The rules are like what the Medicine King said. What you all have to do is not to blindly follow the rules. You have to use your brains more! There's only one set of medicinal herbs. Once wasted, that's a failure. So think clearly before taking action!
Now, I announce that the Alchemy Assembly's first round officially begins! “
Following Ji Qing's words, over ten thousand alchemists all started the assessment nervously.
But at the beginning, nobody went to refine pills. Instead, they quietly observed this pill formula and medicinal herbs, hoping to choose a balance.
The time was 30 minutes.
And there was only one set of medicinal herbs.
The conditions were seriously too harsh.
Ling Xiao naturally was not in a hurry to take action either.
He already analyzed before. If one purely followed the medicinal herbs in the pill formula to refine the Transcendence Pill, then the medicinal pill refined in the end would absolutely not reach 60%.
Which was also to say that it would definitely be eliminated!
Therefore, this test question was not that simple. There must be some trick to it.
As there was only one chance, even if it was Ling Xiao, he also did not dare to be negligent. He had to straighten everything out and figure it out before he could take action.
Anyway, there were 30 minutes. To him, refining pills only needed 5 minutes. The rest of the time could be used to think.
The majority of the people were thinking about the problem. But there were also people who started refining after a moment.
Those were Little Medicine King Ji Luoyu and Dan Qing.
These two people probably went through this kind of test more than once before. Not only did they know the goal of the test, they even knew the method to pass the test.
"Presumably, this test question was set by Medicine King Sun Bu."
Ling Xiao thought about it and casually glanced at those two people's pill refinement platforms.
These two people urged the furnace fire and started refining pills. It was just that due to the array's influence, he could not see clearly what method the other party used.
This was probably to prevent alchemists from copying each other.
Seems like Everlasting Joy Old Ancestor is quite considerate.
However, even though he couldn't see how they operated, the two's skillful movements and confident expressions still made Ling Xiao show a look of admiration.
No matter how he felt about these two people, no matter what their personalities were, at the very least, they were capable and very strong.
In fact, he had already discovered this during the internal testing.
As expected of a genius. With the guidance of a great teacher, he was indeed amazing.
"Ah ~ ~ I failed!"
Finally, the first loser appeared.
Only about two minutes had passed.
This guy probably saw Dan Qing and Ji Luoyu refining pills, so he couldn't hold back and rushed to make a move. The result was a tragedy.
Ling Xiao lightly shook his head and no longer paid attention to others. Instead, he focused his attention on his alchemy platform.
The white bone throne appeared again, and he sat on it comfortably.
There was one thing that he was rather dissatisfied with, and that was the fact that there wasn't a chair prepared for Apothecary to rest on.
Many alchemists were shocked by his action. Some were speechless, and some didn't understand.
However, it was only for a moment, and these people began to focus on refining pills again.
Ling Xiao didn't care about the gazes of others. Suddenly, his eyes lit up.
"So that's it!"
He had already guessed the crux of this test.
He realized that although there weren't a few supplementary herbs in the pill formula, there were some other herbs.
If he thought about it carefully and was familiar with these herbs, he could think of extracting the ingredients from these herbs and then replace the supplementary herbs.
In this way, the maximum medicinal effect could reach 80%!
He used the see-through ability of the Tai Chi Eye and looked at Ji Luoyu and Dan Qing's alchemy platforms.
Sure enough, what these two guys were doing was exactly what he thought.
However, he felt that this method was quite boring.
Moreover, it wasn't perfect.
Because no matter how he did it, the medicinal effect could only reach 80% at most. If it couldn't reach 100%, it would be impossible to refine a perfect transcendent pill.
This was really difficult for him, who pursued perfection wholeheartedly, to accept.
Looking at the time, only five minutes had passed. Anyway, it was still early, so he wasn't in a hurry.
However, in these five minutes, there were already dozens of alchemists who had left helplessly.
There was no other way. After losing the supplementary herbs, not only would the final medicinal effect be greatly reduced, but the success rate of refining would also be greatly reduced.
This was simply a matter of life and death for alchemists who only knew how to memorize things and didn't know how to be flexible.
Ling Xiao didn't look at them.
The Alchemy Conference wasn't all for alchemists. If they failed, then so be it. Even in the alchemy world, not all of them were geniuses or masters. They still needed some diligent ordinary alchemists. Otherwise, no one would refine pills that didn't make the grade.
What he needed to do now was to refine this transcendent pill to perfection.
He lay on the white bone throne with his eyes closed, looking like he was resting. However, in his Mountain River World, he began to practice the alchemy process.
The memories that existed in his mind that belonged to the other world surfaced once again.
In these memories, there was a medical skill that broadened Ling Xiao's horizons.
According to this medical skill, in fact, every medicinal herb contained some special ingredients. These were the key to the medicinal herbs' effects.
These ingredients could be extracted, and could even be synthesized and artificially produced!
In the other world, they relied on high technology to do it.
However, Ling Xiao felt that it was a bit troublesome. It would be easier for them to extract it with their inner force.
Therefore, this method should be feasible.
However, this was only his speculation. Whether it would work or not, he still had to try it out.
He didn't dare to rashly use the medicinal herbs on the alchemy platform to try it out. He could only rely on his Mountain River Martial Spirit and powerful soul force to simulate it.
During the simulation process, he actually slowly stood up. His body floated a foot high in the air, and then his hands actually moved involuntarily.
"What is that guy doing? Pointing fingers at the air? "
After all, Ling Xiao was in the most conspicuous place to refine pills. Therefore, everyone could see his every move clearly.
Whether it was the judges' seats, the preparation seats, or the audience seats.
Ling Xiao's inexplicable actions confused everyone.
"Hysteria?"
Someone asked in confusion.
"Idiot, that's called a sensory test! Only alchemists with extremely powerful soul force can do it. Look at him, he seems to be waving his hands in the air. In fact, in front of him, there is a real alchemy platform. "
The person who said these words was naturally an expert who knew the ropes.
