"I will give you a chance to kill him later."
Zhou Yang did not hesitate to slap the cauldron.
"What is this? Opening the cauldron in just five minutes? Pavilion Master Cai used fifteen minutes to accumulate the pill."
"He is opening the cauldron before the light rises. He will definitely fail."
"Look, the cauldron lid is open."
Everyone exclaimed. The cauldron lid opened and a pill flew out from the thick smoke.
"This …"
For a moment, everyone was stunned. The Pill Refiner who was holding the sword had a flushed face as he casually sheathed his sword.
"How is this possible? How can he succeed?" Cai Liangchen looked at the red pill in the air and shook his head.
"If you can succeed, why can't I? Tell me the time." Zhou Yang smiled.
"The time is … is … is … is nineteen minutes!" A timer said with a trembling voice.
Nineteen minutes!
In an instant, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. The few alchemists who had been scolding Zhou Yang earlier retreated with reddened faces.
Forty-five minutes, forty minutes, half an hour … they all paled in comparison to Zhou Yang's nineteen minutes.
"Cai Liangchen, what's your bet?" Zhou Yang smiled.
"You … you …"
Cai Liangchen's face trembled. He could not help but look at Mu Xinya. Mu Xinya covered her mouth and looked like she was in a daze.
More importantly, there was a tinge of admiration in her expression.
"Hmph, Liu Xing, you won. However, you have no way to prove that you refined the Two-Line Quenching Flame Pill. This is just a One-Line Quenching Flame Pill," Cai Liangchen shouted angrily.
"That's right. You have no way to prove it."
"You are still a fake, a fake."
A few alchemists took the opportunity to add on.
"I knew you would say that. That's why I placed two sets of ingredients." Zhou Yang smiled and waved his hand. The smoke outside the cauldron dissipated.
That's why I placed two sets of ingredients …
What does that mean?
The few of them were a little confused. Then, they saw a red light, causing them to involuntarily close their eyes. When they opened their eyes again, they saw that after the mist had dispersed, a fiery-red pill with two patterns was quietly floating on top of the furnace.
Two-Line Quenching Flame Pill!
Instantly, the foot of the mountain turned silent.
The wind blew and Cai Liangchen staggered back.
"Are you convinced now?" Zhou Yang smiled.
"Impossible, you, you are a high level Alchemist …" Cai Liangchen said in fear. In his eyes, only a high level Alchemist had the ability to refine two grade two medicinal pills at the same time.
Zhou Yang didn't say anything. He just stretched out his hand. "What are the stakes?"
Cai Liangchen looked at the crowd before looking at Mu Xinya. He saw that Mu Xinya was also looking at him.
Under the watchful eyes of so many people, how could he not give it to them? He could not afford to lose face like this.
He immediately threw out the pill recipes that he had painstakingly collected.
Zhou Yang smiled faintly. He then looked at Cai Liang Chen and said, "With your experience in alchemy, you can definitely finish it within twenty minutes. Unfortunately, you were too impatient for success. In the end, it backfired on you."
"Impatient for results …"
Cai Liangchen looked unconvinced, "Liu Xing, even if you're stronger than me, it doesn't mean that you can teach me. My teacher is much stronger than you."
"I can't be bothered to teach you. It's just that I learned something while you were refining pills. It's a fair deal to tell you now." Zhou Yang smiled. He had been watching Cai Liangchen while he was refining pills. Many of the doubts he had when refining pills were suddenly cleared up. It was also because of this that he was able to refine a Two-Patterned Quenching Flame Pill that was not enhanced by the Black Demon's Pill Seal.
"You … You learned it from me? Aren't you a high level Alchemist? You still want to learn?"
Cai Liangchen wasn't the only one who was shocked. The other alchemists were equally terrified.
A high level Alchemist wasn't scary. What was scary was a person who could quickly make up for his own shortcomings while others were refining pills.
"When did I say that I was a high level Alchemist?"
Zhou Yang shook his head and said, "When you were refining pills earlier, your speed in refining the ingredients and refining the medicinal pill was too fast. The power of the flames was too strong. You have to know that the Quenching Flame Pill is a fire attribute medicinal pill. If you were to use scarlet flames, wouldn't it be like pouring oil on a volcano? You could use ordinary flames to refine it. That way, the time you need to accumulate the pill would be greatly reduced."
"Impossible!"
Cai Liangchen rejected immediately. Although Zhou Yang's refining process was the same as what he had said, he was still unwilling to believe that his many years of experience in refining pills would be wrong.
"The stronger the flame, the better it is when the ingredients can withstand it. I used the scarlet flames to refine the ingredients into the medicinal pill to speed up the process. As for the time it takes for me to accumulate the pill, it has nothing to do with the previous two things. You can't teach me, Cai Liangchen."
"Is that so?"
Zhou Yang smiled. Then, he focused and a scarlet flame sprang out. In an instant, the temperature of the scene rose rapidly.
"Rank six scarlet flames, it's a rank six scarlet flames …"
Everyone retreated in fear. The temperature of 60,000 degrees Celsius was not a joke.
Zhou Yang naturally didn't use his full strength, but that was enough.
"You … You …" Cai Liangchen was speechless. His scarlet flames were only rank three, while Zhou Yang's was rank six. More importantly, he didn't use it when he was refining pills earlier.
"Whether it's true or not, you'll know when you go back and try it. I'm not obliged to make you believe me."
After saying that, Zhou Yang kept the alchemy furnace and turned to leave.
"Wait for Liu Xing."
At this moment, Mu Xinya hurriedly stopped Zhou Yang. She said, "Liu Xing, I hope that we can work together for a long time. No, indefinitely."
"Are you dreaming? I have already given you the thirty medicinal pills. Let's end the deal here."
Zhou Yang shook his head. He had already decided not to interfere with the matters of Dragon Tail Mountain. He wanted to raise his strength quickly, then kill mutated beasts to advance to the Mercury Realm. Finally, he would pass the test to enter Dragon's Gate Mound.
"You …" Mu Xinya was somewhat disappointed. However, she knew that the temper of genius Alchemists was not like this. There was no point in pestering him.
"Hu …"
At this moment, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. This was especially so for those Alchemists. They wiped the sweat off their foreheads.
At night, a black light flashed in Zhou Yang's cave. The Quenching Flame Pill in Zhou Yang's hand was emitting a faint fiery glow.
"There are still ten sets of ingredients. I wonder if I can raise the Scarlet Flame Pill to rank nine?"
He was very clear that if the ten sets of ingredients were all Two-Lined Quenching Flame Pills, then it would be impossible to succeed. However, if it was only three, then it might not be possible.
After saying that, he immediately consumed the Three-Lined Quenching Flame Pill in his hand. After a while, the small flame in his body started to shrink.
"Ten percent …"
Zhou Yang sighed. If the first pill only had ten percent, then the second pill would definitely not have any. The ten Three-Lined Quenching Flame Pills would not be able to raise his Scarlet Flame Pill to rank nine.
Thinking of this, he temporarily gave up on refining. After that, he took out his sword and started practicing.
