When many people's medicinal pills were already about to come out of the furnace, the corners of Ling Xiao's mouth curled into a hint of a smile. He finally understood the meaning of this round's competition.
Hence, very soon, he also started his own refinement.
His speed was very fast. In terms of technique, it was actually not the slightest bit worse than the Heavenly Sea Pearl.
"That's not right?"
On the judges' seats, Ji Qing who saw Ling Xiao start refining the pill frowned and said, "What is Ling Xiao doing here?"
He was also somewhat confused.
Because Ling Xiao's refinement method was actually different from the rest, including the Heavenly Sea Pearl.
"Huhu, this boy tends to exceed expectations. You misjudged this time too, right? He probably has his own ideas. But no matter what, he finally started to make a move. Otherwise, it would be dragged to the end again."
But Ancestor Changle had an inexplicable trust in Ling Xiao. Probably because Ling Xiao's performance in the first round previously was seriously a little too good.
"Makes sense!"
Ji Qing also smiled. Although Ling Xiao's method was different from the rest and also different from the correct method that he designed previously, it opened up a new path and seemed to really have some knack for it.
"Humph, always liking to walk a novel path, you'll dig your own grave! Not at all dependable! "
Medicine King Sun Bu said rather discontentedly.
Ji Qing was just about to say something when a puff of black smoke suddenly rose in the venue, accompanied by a rather loud sound.
"Huhu, indeed, someone started to fail huh? This is the mistake made in a hurry."
Ji Qing smiled and could not help shaking his head.
He really hoped that these alchemists' performances could be like Ling Xiao and the Heavenly Sea Pearl.
Too bad, not everyone was so outstanding.
Of course, the ones he regretted the most were Dan Qing and Ji Luoyu.
Actually, as long as these two people calmed down a little, they should be able to discover where the problem lay.
In the end, they only wanted to be competitive and took a wrong step. There was no chance to regret it even if they wanted to. They could only walk this path to the end.
"Impossible. Transcendental Pill, this grade of medicinal pill, I've refined more than a thousand times. The recent success rate is 99%, close to 100%. This time, the entire process also did not have any problems. Why did I fail?"
At this time, the alchemist who failed had a dumbfounded look.
He had no idea what was going on.
There was no problem with the herbs.
There was no problem with the pill recipe.
There was no problem with the forging method.
What went wrong?
"Could it be that I didn't control the heat properly? Plus, this furnace isn't very smooth to use. That must be it."
This pharmacist could be considered to have used his brain. It was a pity that he had completely blamed the problem on himself. He had never thought about whether there was really no problem with those medicinal herbs.
Was there really no problem with the pill formula?
Previously, the first test tested "innovation"!
The second test was about "innovation"!
Only by not fearing authority and tradition would one be able to discover the problems within.
Unfortunately, out of everyone present, only Ling Xiao and the Tianhai Pearl were able to do so.
Although the two of them walked different paths, they both maintained a skeptical attitude from the beginning.
They didn't think that the judges would be so kind as to give this stage such a simple one.
As for this failed pharmacist, although he was a good person and an honest person, it was precisely because of this that he once again walked onto the path of failure.
He began to refine pills again. He used the second set of ingredients and used the exact same method. The final result could be imagined.
"Idiot! I've already left clues for these people who chose the wrong method to pass the stage. In the end, he didn't even think about it and started to refine pills again. "
Medicine King Sun Sa scolded.
He knew that many people couldn't see through Ji Qing's tricks, so he lowered the difficulty. Even if the pharmacist chose the wrong method, there was at least a possibility of passing the stage. As long as they properly summarized and observed after failing once, they would discover the answer.
Unfortunately, this person didn't do that at all. He anxiously started to refine pills again. Extremely stupid.
Failure seemed to be contagious.
After the first puff of black smoke rose, more and more puffs of black smoke rose one after another. Accompanying each puff of black smoke was a muffled sound.
Like the first pharmacist who failed, these pharmacists also revealed an expression of disbelief and confusion.
They lowered their heads and pondered, considering where their problem was.
But some people, like the first failure, attributed the mistake to themselves and started to refine pills again.
And the other pharmacists finally found the key to open the door to pass the stage.
"That's more like it. At least not everyone is so stupid. Looks like there are still some people who can stay in this stage."
Medicine King Sun Sa's expression was slightly better.
The test questions that he designed, if no one could discover the mystery within, then it was very hard for him not to be angry.
Seeing the appearance of the failures, the audience was somewhat unsettled. They were all discussing animatedly, but they couldn't say anything decent.
Most of them were words like 'idiot', 'idiot', 'why did he fail again'.
Puff!
Finally, the ten people on the rostrum also began to lose.
One after another, even Dan Qing and Ji Luoyu couldn't escape from this demon barrier.
Dan Qing's expression was very ugly.
Just now, he mocked Ling Xiao for thinking himself clever and not daring to refine pills. Now it seemed that Ling Xiao's caution was correct.
And he was a little rash and impulsive.
"I understand now."
Ji Luoyu revealed a bitter smile and said, "Brother Dan Qing, the two of us are really too anxious. The real correct method of refining pills should be to combine the 'moon concealing flower' in the two medicinal herbs together."
"I also understand that the moon concealing flower in the two medicinal herbs is incomplete. Although it looks intact on the surface, but in fact, it has been tampered with by someone and turned into two attributes of Yin and Yang. If only one of them is used, then it is basically bound to fail."
Dan Qing was reminded like this and suddenly came to a realization.
The two of them looked at the destroyed dregs at the same time.
Suddenly, their eyes lit up.
"There is still a chance to pass!"
In the dregs, there were still remnants of the moon concealing flower's attributes. Although it was not so perfect, but if they were willing, they could still extract some.
In this way, the transcendental pill that was refined was still effective, but the effect was not very good.
This was the glimmer of hope that Medicine King Sun Sa left for the pharmacists.
Thinking of this, the two of them hurriedly threw themselves into refining.
Since they already understood the problem, this time they would not fail. After all, the two of them were not weak.
After many people failed the first time, they became cautious the second time.
However, there was not much time left. They could not keep thinking calmly.
"I'm going all out, let's try again."
This was the thought of many people.
However, when they began to use the second set of medicinal herbs to refine pills, the first pharmacist who failed failed again.
His two sets of medicinal herbs were wasted!
The mechanical bird let out a scream. He was eliminated.
