The second round of the pill refinement competition was hell mode from the get-go.
Most of the contestants were in despair, but there were still some who were either full of enthusiasm or full of confidence.
For example, the three most popular contestants were all smiling brightly at this moment.
"Very good. Only by refining a fourth-grade spirit pill will we be able to display our true abilities." The transparent woman materialized from blue liquid nodded with a smile.
She then turned toward Xu Xiaolan with a faint smile. "Look, that human woman is standing on the spot without moving. She must have been scared shitless. Does she really think she's the champion just because she refined a fifth-grade spirit pill …"
The Black Sword Lord shook his head. "Humans are like this. They climb a mountain and think they've reached the peak, but they don't know what a true mountain is. She must be in despair now, hehehe … What a delightful scene. "
"Xu Xiaolan should be able to recognize the cruel reality this time. Let's take care of ourselves as well. A fourth-grade spirit pill is quite a challenge even for us." Ban Yue's voice was ethereal as green flames suddenly burst forth from the green crescent moon behind her.
The green flames were extremely rich in life force energy, and using them to refine pills could enhance the pill's compatibility and spirituality, thereby improving the pill's quality!
The three living beings no longer looked at Xu Xiaolan. Instead, they turned their attention to pill refinement.
All of the spectators began to discuss spiritedly among themselves at the sight of Xu Xiaolan, who was standing on the spot without moving. Some were skeptical, some were perplexed, and some were disappointed.
It wasn't that Xu Xiaolan didn't know how to refine a fourth-grade spirit pill. It was just that she was hesitating over which type of flame to use. Logically speaking, the Mutant Blood Phoenix's flame was the most suitable for the fourth-grade spirit pill, the Rejuvenation Spirit Pill. This was because a life-type flame could enhance a life-type spirit pill.
However, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to control that flame well.
After all, she had just obtained this power, and she was still a little rusty in using it. If she made a mistake, it would be over for her.
So be it … It's not like I have to fight for first place. I'll just fight for the top five!
Xu Xiaolan began her pill refinement process. She was still using her usual flame, the Golden Phoenix Flame!
Previously, because there were thousands of people competing, not many people paid attention to Xu Xiaolan refining pills.
Right now, under the gazes of tens of thousands of people, Xu Xiaolan used the mighty divine flame. The purity of the flame was extremely high, and there was the faint cry of a phoenix. It was gorgeous and noble.
This scene once again caused a huge uproar among the audience!
"Oh my god … What did I just see? This purity, this concept … this is a Divine Flame, right? "
"I didn't expect him to possess the divine fire at such a young age. His future is limitless!"
"Previously, there were so many people who doubted her strength. Now, tell me, is she the kind of person who makes a ruckus to attract attention? Even if she can't refine fourth-grade elixirs, with her ability to refine fifth-grade elixirs and the Godly Fire, she will definitely be one of the top alchemists in the future! "
Some of the living beings fell silent, and some of them even felt like their faces were burning.
In the Pill Tower's Elders' seating area, the ten Elders were pleasantly surprised by Xu Xiaolan's Divine Flame, and they began to discuss it.
"Such a good seedling, I want him!"
"Ptui! Ling Yan, didn't you want to take Ban Yue as your disciple? Why did you suddenly change your mind? "
"Hehe, who doesn't want a good disciple? Others might not be able to see it, but do you think we can't? With Xu Xiaolan's alchemy skills, if it was in the past, she would be the champion. Now, apart from that untouchable person, who else can be her match … "
…
Just as Xu Xiaolan attracted the attention of most of the living beings, An Lin also attracted the attention of one living being. That's right, it was that male dragon, Gray!
Gray placed one hand on his Elixir Furnace and struck a comfortable pose. He picked his nose and chuckled. "An Lin, hurry up and refine elixirs! I'm waiting for you to win the competition and reach the pinnacle of life! "
The corner of An Lin's mouth twitched slightly. With an idiot constantly mocking him, it was really a terrible experience. It was fine if he could show off and slap people in the face, but he couldn't.
Most of the pill refiners who could enter the second round were Spirit Gathering stage.
There were very few pill refiners at the pinnacle of the Flame Mastery Stage like An Lin and Gray, and they had all forfeited.
The only pill refiner at the Flame Mastery Stage who didn't forfeit was An Lin.
Forget it … I'll give it my all!
An Lin gritted his teeth and released the flames of the Mutant Blood Phoenix.
Boom!
The crimson flames surged and filled the entire Elixir Furnace.
At the side, Gray, who was just about to open his mouth to mock them, jumped in fright when he saw this scene.
His eyes widened in shock. "You … That's … Divine Flame?!"
"What's there to be surprised about?" An Lin blinked.
"Divine Flame! That's the flame that pill refiners dream of obtaining! One has to be extremely powerful and have all sorts of miraculous encounters to obtain a Divine Flame. How do you have one?! "Gray's mouth gaped open, and his face twisted with jealousy.
"So Divine Flames are this bad * ss?" An Lin continued to select ingredients as he said, "I really don't understand why weaklings like you are so shocked. I still have a few Divine Flames that I haven't used yet …"
Gray's body shuddered as he gritted his teeth. "Are we really living in the same world? How could you do this … I'm going to kill you! "
An Lin rolled his eyes and couldn't be bothered to deal with the stupid dragon. He placed the ingredients he had selected into the Elixir Furnace one by one before controlling the flames of the Mutant Blood Phoenix to refine the ingredients.
He knew that refining ninth-grade spirit pills was already his limit, but that didn't mean that he had to give up. Taking the challenge seriously and then failing in a dignified manner seemed like a pretty good choice to him.
The pill refinement process began.
The higher the grade of the pill, the more difficult it was to extract the essence from the ingredients and fuse them together.
An Lin was extremely careful with each and every step he took, and he was extremely focused. Even though he didn't release his consciousness, he was constantly stimulating all of the senses in his body in order to adjust his condition to its peak!
Gray looked on from the side. For some reason, it felt like An Lin was becoming more and more powerful. His pill refinement process seemed to be even more intricate than its own …
"Hmm … He's starting to extract the essence from the second-grade spirit herb, the Eternal Spring Grass. He won't be able to overcome this obstacle with his current abilities," Gray murmured to itself.
Even though that was what it was saying, the black dragon's gaze was drawn to An Lin this entire time.
For some reason, a peculiar emotion welled up in its heart at the sight of An Lin's struggling expression.
It was time to extract the essence from the Eternal Spring Grass …
An Lin's fingers guided the flames as he focused his attention to a high degree.
Even a veteran Spirit Gathering Stage pill refinement master would find it extremely difficult to extract the essence from a second-grade spirit herb, let alone someone like him who hadn't even reached the Spirit Gathering Stage yet.
Concentrate … concentrate … and slowly peel it off …
It's over!
The Eternal Spring Grass is about to collapse. I can't hold on any longer, the flames are too difficult to control!
An Lin felt powerless for the first time.
If this goes on, the ingredients will be ruined!
Who can help me …
In his sea of vital energy, the flaming Vermilion Bird that was soaring high in the sky seemed to have heard the call in An Lin's heart and raised its head.
"Do you want me to teach you pill refinement? Don't resist, I'll help you! "
A familiar yet unfamiliar voice suddenly appeared in An Lin's mind.
An Lin was slightly taken aback, and he subconsciously said in his heart, 'Come and help me!'
Boom!
An Lin's body trembled, and he opened his eyes again. There seemed to be a flaming Vermilion Bird flashing across his black and white eyes.
He made a grabbing motion toward the Eternal Spring Grass, and the blood-colored flames seemed to have changed their nature as they obediently and gently peeled off the shell of the spirit herb.
The essence of the Eternal Spring Grass was perfectly extracted!
