Lu Ping raised his head to look at the sky. There were no clouds in the sky, and a cool breeze was blowing gently. However, because of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Fires in the Pill Pavilion's square, even though the alchemists tried their best to restrain it, the cool breeze turned into a heatwave.
Lu Ping looked at Enlightened Master Xuan Yue, who was controlling the Heaven Cauldron on the square, and a trace of displeasure flashed across his heart. Although Fornax Cauldron Ancestor had told him about his plan, Lu Ping still had some doubts about the Crimson Spirit Flame being exposed so early.
It seemed that advancing to the Dharma Manifestation stage was imminent. If Yan Wujiu and Luan Yu's plan succeeded, then the origin of the Red Spiritual Flame could be explained to them. Otherwise, whether it was Lu Ping or Zhenling, they did not want to have such a strong opponent like the Fire Phoenix Clan in the East Sea.
On the square, hundreds of divine senses and divine senses were intertwined. The Pill Competition was a rare opportunity for alchemists to show their alchemy skills.
The alchemy masters opened their cauldrons one after another, so that they could stagger the time of refining the elixirs. It was convenient for the many alchemists present to verify with each other and learn different alchemy skills and experience.
Half a day passed quickly, and the alchemy masters on the square had reached the time to open their cauldrons.
The first to open the cauldron was not Enlightened Xuanfang, but Master Li Yanshan.
Lu Ping saw it clearly from the side. It was not that he wanted to open the cauldron now, but because his cauldron was too old, the Spirit Qi and Pill Qi were leaking. If he did not open the cauldron now, the speed of refining the elixirs would not be able to keep up with the speed of the loss of the elixirs.
A mid Core Forging elixir was comparable to Enlightened Xuanfang's Ancient Glass Elixir. Five elixirs were produced in one cauldron, so the success rate was not bad.
Immediately after, Enlightened Xuanfang's Ancient Glass Elixir was also out of the cauldron. Before the six Ancient Glass Elixirs flew too far from the cauldron, they were all sucked into a jade bottle by Enlightened Xuanfang.
Because of Grandmaster Li Yanshan, many of the Zhenling cultivators present cheered when they saw Enlightened Master Xuan Fang taking out one more pill.
Daoist Master Xuan Fang, on the other hand, felt a little awkward. He knew that if Daoist Master Li Yanshan's pill furnace was not too shabby, his success rate might not have been reduced by 10%. If the spiritual fire in his hand was also upgraded to Earth-rank, Daoist Master Xuan Fang was not confident that he could beat him in alchemy.
Perfected Li Yanshan, on the other hand, was unperturbed. He merely smiled at Perfected Xuan Fang's apologetic gaze. Lu Ping saw all of this.
Immediately after, Daoist Master Xuan Dian and the two external alchemists also opened their cauldrons. Although the three of them were much more experienced in alchemy than Daoist Master Xuan Fang and Perfected Li Yanshan, even though they were all in the middle stage of the Core Forging stage, the quality and success rate of their pills were better than Daoist Master Xuan Fang and Perfected Li Yanshan.
However, Lu Ping did not see any spirituality in the three of them like Daoist Master Xuan Fang and Perfected Li Yanshan. This meant that the three of them had basically no chance of improving their alchemy skills. Daoist Master Xuan Fang and Perfected Li Yanshan's alchemy skills still had a lot of room for improvement.
Soon, it was time for Daoist Master Xuan Jing to open his cauldron. Three Illusionary Pills flew out of the cauldron in a row. This made Daoist Master Xuan Jing very satisfied.
If he had used a high-grade cauldron to refine the Illusionary Pills in the past, he would only be able to produce two pills at a time. Although he had used a top-grade cauldron this time, a large part of the reason was that his alchemy skills had improved significantly.
The Illusionary Pills had a thirty percent success rate. This meant that he could at least ask his master, Tianlu Laozu, to refine elixirs that were half a step into the Dharma stage!
However, he was a little worried. This time, it was obviously because he had Tianqin Laozu's top-grade cauldron in his hands. After this, he would have to return the cauldron. Daoist Master Xuan Jing knew that when Tianling Laozu and Tianlin Laozu had turned against each other, Tianqin Laozu had been unhappy with him. It was only because of their old friendship that he had lent the cauldron to him. If he were to borrow it again in the future, it would not be so easy anymore!
Putting away the cauldron and the spirit fire, Daoist Master Zhenling waved his hand at the cheering disciples around him. Daoist Master Xuan Jing looked at Lu Xuanping, who was controlling the Silver Spirit Fire to refine elixirs leisurely.
What kind of elixir was this guy refining?
Daoist Master Xuan Jing was not the only one who had this question. Almost all the alchemists present had the same question. What kind of elixir was Grandmaster Lu Xuanping refining?
Daoist Master Xuan Yan's Spirit Cleansing Pill was finally about to be refined. This kind of high-grade elixir had the same effect on late Core Forging adepts. In Daoist Master Xuan Yan's Linchuan cauldron, he had also achieved a thirty percent success rate!
Under normal circumstances, a cauldron of elixirs would only contain ten elixirs. The common rule of the Zhenling sect was to achieve at least a thirty percent success rate for elixirs to be considered qualified!
Therefore, Daoist Master Xuan Jing's Illusionary Pills had reached a thirty percent success rate. He was now qualified to refine elixirs that were half a step into the Dharma stage. Daoist Master Xuan Yan had also achieved a thirty percent success rate. This meant that he could finally refine the Spirit Cleansing Pill.
Daoist Master Xuan Yan did not like Lu Ping either. However, it was just a simple dislike. It was not like Daoist Master Xuan Jing, who hated him to the point of scheming against him.
However, he also had some doubts about the elixir that Lu Ping had refined. It was not only because of the mysteriousness of the elixir, but also because of the Silver Spirit Flame.
It was said that although the Silver Spirit Flame could increase the success rate of elixirs, the amount of Inner Yuan required to control the Spirit Flame was double that of a normal Spirit Flame. The time required to control the Spirit Flame was also double that of a similar elixir. In this way, using the Silver Spirit Flame to refine a cauldron of elixirs would consume four times the amount of Inner Yuan compared to a normal cultivator!
Would this guy be able to withstand it?
If there was a situation where he ate elixirs and used Spirit Stones to replenish his Inner Yuan, then he would become a laughing stock!
Daoist Master Xuan Yan's level was higher than Daoist Master Xuan Jing's level of schadenfreude. At the very least, he would consider that if Lu Ping really made a fool of himself, he would be touching Zhenling's own dark side!
Compared to the mystery of Lu Ping's elixir, Daoist Master Xuan Yue's Zhong Ding Elixir was much more attention-grabbing. After all, the Zhong Ding Elixir was the elixir that made Tianlu Laozu famous in the past.
Although it was only half a step to the Dharma stage, the Core Forging stage and Dharma stage cultivators who had survived all these years because of the Zhong Ding Elixir were not the only ones in Zhenling. There were also many people from other sects. This had given Zhenling a lot of favors and reputation!
What's more, there was also the Firmament Cauldron, the number one cauldron of Zhenling in name. As for the Red Spirit Flame, although very few of the cultivators present knew about it, Lu Ping had to prepare for the worst. Although he roughly knew about Tianlu Laozu's plan, in reality, he was not optimistic about it. After all, the Red Spirit Flame had a lot of implications. If there was really a misunderstanding with the Fire Phoenix race, he hoped that Yan Wujiu and Luan Yu would have enough weight to help him.
Daoist Master Xuan Yue was a little surprised that the four Zhong Ding Elixirs were out of the cauldron. This meant that he even had the qualifications to start refining the Dharma stage elixir. He was already a genuine alchemy grandmaster. This was not something that a half-step grandmaster could compare with. The latter was usually just a way to elevate others, but Daoist Master Xuan Yue was the real alchemy grandmaster. All he lacked was the last Dharma stage elixir!
Lu Ping was still refining his elixir leisurely. Until now, the mysterious elixir refined in the Na Chuan Cauldron did not seem to have any signs of solidifying. What kind of elixir was this?
As time slowly passed, the number of Zhenling cultivators who came to the square to watch the ceremony did not decrease. Instead, it increased. Now, it seemed that all the Zhenling cultivators who stayed behind in Tian Ling Mountain knew that Daoist Master Lu Xuanping was refining a mysterious elixir. Everyone in the square was looking forward to the final mystery being revealed. No one showed a trace of impatience, including cultivators like Daoist Master Xuan Jing who had a grudge with Lu Ping.
Lu Ping raised his head and looked at the sky. Unknowingly, wisps of clouds had drifted over and covered the sun that was already slanting in the west. As Lu Ping was the only one left in the square, the previously bustling scene seemed a little cold. The breeze brought a hint of coolness.
Lu Ping nodded in his heart. It seemed that it was almost time to solidify the elixir. However, it was his first time refining this kind of elixir. He really did not know what the success rate would be. Although it was only an early-stage Dharma Realm elixir, even if he did not use the Purple Crystal Royal Jelly, he still had a success rate of more than 40%. However, if something went wrong, he would really be overreaching himself this time!
"It's solidifying, it's solidifying!"
The cultivators in the square who were watching were suddenly shocked. Hundreds of divine thoughts and divine senses surged into the Na Chuan Cauldron, but they obediently left enough space. They did not dare to interfere with Lu Ping's divine thoughts in controlling the process of solidifying the elixir in the cauldron.
Another half an hour passed. According to the normal alchemy process, it was already the final time to open the cauldron. The rich fragrance of the elixir had already filled the entire Elixir Pavilion square.
"It's time to open the cauldron. If we don't open it now, it looks like it's going to rain!"
Many cultivators in the square saw that the sky had gradually darkened. Zhenling's Mountain Defense Formation would not block out ordinary weather like wind, rain, thunder, and lightning.
"It can't be, until now, there are still ten elixirs in the cauldron!"
A cultivator exclaimed in a low voice!
At this time, many cultivators realized that until now, there were still ten elixirs in the Na Chuan Cauldron that had gradually solidified, and none of them had been destroyed.
"Grandmaster Lu Xuanping is really amazing. He can even have a 100% success rate of Dharma Realm elixirs!"
"No, this is too strange. Dharma Realm elixirs have a 100% success rate and none of them have been destroyed. Is it possible? Didn't you see that the few masters on the square are frowning? Even they don't believe it! "
"Indeed, although it is an early-stage Dharma Realm elixir, who has ever heard of a 100% success rate? I'm afraid that only alchemists who have achieved the Divine Soul Stage can achieve this!"
Boom!
A muffled thunder suddenly sounded in the sky, and the whole world became even darker!
At this moment, Lu Ping's slightly squinted eyes suddenly lit up. With the last hand seal, he pushed the cauldron toward the cauldron. The lid of the Na Chuan Cauldron floated up, and ten elixirs flew out of the cauldron!
"Ten, it really is ten elixirs, a 100% success rate!"
Someone in the square suddenly shouted!
However, before the cultivators in the square who were watching the ceremony could be in an uproar because of this exciting moment, the dark clouds in the sky were suddenly torn apart by a green light, followed by a muffled thunder. The green light zigzagged and suddenly hit the ten elixirs that were escaping in all directions!
There was a sudden exclamation in the square. Many cultivators watched as six of the ten elixirs exploded on the spot. Although the remaining four were lucky enough to escape, the outer layer of the elixirs was covered with a layer of purple!
