"That's not fair!"
Su Hongyan hurriedly stood up and said, "Lin Yun is proficient in alchemy, but he is not proficient in these crooked ways. You are cheating!"
Xiao Batian chuckled and said shamelessly, "He was the one who said that he was not afraid of any challenge and that I set the rules. Who can he blame now?"
"Xiao Batian, you are despicable!" Su Hongyan was so angry that she was speechless. It was Lin Yun who made the promise himself.
But Lin Yun was not afraid, "Tell me, how do we compete?"
Xiao Batian's eyes flashed with killing intent, "You and I will each refine a poison, then we will exchange and refine the antidote. Then, we will consume the poison together with the antidote. The one who activates the poison loses, the one who does not activate the poison wins. "
Everyone's hair stood on end as they heard this. They could not help but feel their backs go numb.
How was this a competition of alchemy skills?
This was playing with one's life!
It was easy to refine poison, but difficult to detoxify. How dangerous was it to test the poison yourself?
If he was not careful, he would lose his life!
At this moment, Jiang Shian, Lin Tianying, and the others all smiled as if their scheme had succeeded.
No one in Azure Cloud City could detoxify Xiao Batian's poison. Even if an immortal descended, he would not be able to save Lin Yun!
Using this method to eliminate Lin Yun would not only avoid direct conflict with Mu Qingyun and Su Hongyan, but it would also make the Yu Province Martial House speechless. It was killing two birds with one stone.
"Okay, no problem." Lin Yun agreed without hesitation.
Everyone looked at Lin Yun with cold sweat on their faces.
He agreed just like that. Did this brat not know how terrifying Xiao Batian's alchemy skills were?
"If that's the case, then let's begin!" Xiao Batian poured out a few shocking things from the gourd hanging on his waist.
Su Hongyan's eyes widened and her pupils shrank, "These are … Black Widow, Bone Toad, Blood Melting Scorpion, Seven Step Snake, and Sky Silkworm Centipede!"
Everyone's expression changed.
Just hearing the names of these materials was enough to make their blood run cold.
Any one of these five poisons was extremely toxic.
It was hard to imagine how terrifying the poison would be when the five poisons were mixed together and refined into a poison!
"Is he trying to refine the Five Poison Corrosive Solution?!" Su Hongyan's expression darkened.
"Five Poison Corrosive Solution?" Mu Qingyun repeated in a low voice. Although he didn't understand alchemy, just by hearing the name of this poison, he knew it wasn't simple.
Su Hongyan explained, "The Five Poison Corrosive Solution, as the name suggests, is a strange poison refined from the mixture of these five highly toxic substances! Its composition is extremely complex, and its toxicity is extremely terrifying. Even the refiner himself would find it difficult to remove it. "
After hearing Su Hongyan's words, the crowd broke out in a cold sweat for Lin Yun. They could not help but guess what kind of poison Lin Yun would refine to counter it.
However, the list of materials that Lin Yun reported left everyone completely dumbfounded.
"Help me prepare the following four materials: Black Mandara Flower, Bluesilver Grass, Blood Clotting Fruit, and Poria."
Lin Yun said to Su Hongyan expressionlessly, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
After hearing Lin Yun's list of materials, the crowd could not believe their ears.
Out of the four materials, only the Black Mandara Flower was classified as a poison.
What the hell were the other three materials?
Compared to the Five Poison Corrosive Solution, this combination was simply a joke!
Was Lin Yun planning to use this to counter the Five Poison Corrosive Solution that Xiao Batian had chosen?
"He wants these materials because he wants to refine the Black Mandara Poison. This is indeed a very troublesome poison." Xiao Batian smiled disdainfully, thinking that he had seen through Lin Yun's thoughts.
He rubbed his chin and said confidently, "To other alchemists, this poison is indeed difficult to refine. But to me, this poison is a piece of cake! "
Jiang Shian and Lin Tianying nodded in relief. They were very confident in Xiao Batian's ability to refine poisons. They believed that as long as Xiao Batian made his move, Lin Yun would have no chance of survival!
Su Hongyan looked at Lin Yun worriedly, "Will it really work to use the Black Mandara Poison against Xiao Batian, who is an expert in poisons?"
Lin Yun did not say anything and only nodded expressionlessly. His eyes were devoid of any emotion, as if they were a bottomless black hole, unfathomable.
Although Su Hongyan did not know what to include Lin Yun, she still ordered her servants to bring out the materials that Lin Yun needed from the Chamber of Commerce.
Very soon, the materials that Lin Yun needed were delivered to the venue.
"The time limit for the competition is one incense stick. Let's begin now!" Xiao Batian said with a cold smile.
Lin Yun nodded without any objections.
The two of them began refining at the same time.
Xiao Batian first placed the five poisons into five different metal containers, then placed the containers into the pill furnace one after another, refining them into five different types of poison.
Finally, he placed the five types of poison into the pill furnace at the same time, fusing them together to form a bottle of dark colored, bubbling poison.
"Is this how the Five Poison Corrosive Solution is refined? What kind of refining method is this! "
"This old man has never seen such a refining method before, this is truly inconceivable!"
The group of old alchemists from the Green Cloud Chamber of Commerce could not help but exclaim in admiration.
Su Hongyan also frowned. "This is an extremely advanced refinement method. First, five different types of venom are refined, and then the five types of venom are used as ingredients to refine a brand new venom."
"The entire refining process is completed twice, and the changes are completely unfathomable. Trying to overcome this poison is as difficult as ascending to the heavens!"
As she spoke, Su Hongyan looked at Lin Yun with a face full of worry.
From the beginning, Lin Yun had been refining the solution obediently, and his method was ordinary, without any special characteristics, no different from a normal alchemist.
When a white mist emerged from the pill furnace, Lin Yun opened the lid and took out a cup of purplish black liquid.
From the looks of it, this was indeed the Black Datura poison.
The Black Datura poison was extremely toxic, and those who were poisoned would die within an hour.
The fact that Lin Yun was able to refine the Black Datura poison showed that he had some ability. However, this kind of poison could be used to deal with alchemists who were not proficient in refining poison, but would it really work on Xiao Batian?
After both sides finished refining, they exchanged the poisons in their hands.
Xiao Batian held the cup of purplish black liquid and sneered disdainfully, "It really is the Black Datura poison. I've already found the antidote to this poison ten years ago, you've already lost!"
After saying that, Xiao Batian poured out a few types of herbs from a gourd hanging on his waist.
Su Hongyan's eyes widened, "Emerald Flower, Three Leaf Grass, Thousand Gold Seed, Serum Fruit, these are indeed the standard antidote to the Black Datura poison. Lin Yun is in trouble now!"
The Black Datura poison was a poison that even Su Hongyan knew how to neutralize, so it was naturally not a problem for Xiao Batian.
