"Duan Feng? So he's called Duan Feng. I didn't know the name of the young master of the Wuji Sect. "Gui Tu smiled.
"It's normal that you don't know. This guy rarely appears in the capital." Bai Xiaotian shrugged and smiled.
Tian He smiled faintly. "Anyway, you have to be careful when it comes to him. I've fought with him before. Not only is his strength terrifying, but he's also ruthless."
"Brother Tian He, who won the battle between you and Duan Feng?" Annihilation asked curiously.
"Haha, there's no clear winner. We're evenly matched." Tian He smiled faintly.
Mu Qing quickly asked, "Senior brother Tian He, if you meet him again, are you confident that you can beat him?"
Hearing this, Tian He was silent for a moment before shaking his head. "No, that guy is very strong. I haven't improved much in these years of seclusion. That guy has an Immortal Artifact. With my current strength, I'm naturally not his opponent."
Duan Feng was the young master of the Wuji Sect, the number one genius in the cultivation world. The Wuji Sect's Immortal Artifact naturally fell into his hands. He was the future master of the Wuji Sect.
"What about the Immortal Sword Sect? I heard that the young master of the Immortal Sword Sect is very strong. Is he a match for you and Duan Feng? "Ling Zhan asked Tian He.
"I'm not sure. I've never fought with the young master of the Immortal Sword Sect. I don't know his strength, but he's definitely not weak." Tian He smiled. "Alright, go and rest. It's starting tomorrow. Rest well. No matter who your opponent is, just do your best. There's no need to care about winning or losing."
"Senior brother Tian He, tomorrow is the alchemy competition. It's not the martial arts competition yet!" Wei Yun rolled his eyes at Tian He.
"Oh, haha, I almost forgot." Tian He was slightly embarrassed and scratched his head out of habit.
Xiao Chen looked at Ling Zhan and asked, "Ling Zhan, are you not participating?"
Ling Zhan said expressionlessly, "I'm not your opponent now. If I participate, I won't get first place. Why should I?"
"Haha! Ling Zhan is speaking the truth. There are so many experts in the cultivation world. If I can't get first place, there's no point in participating. "Gui Tu laughed.
On the second day, the cultivators who came to participate in the competition or spectate had all gathered around the arena built by the auction house early in the morning. The large crowd was as noisy as a market.
"So many people, so lively!" Blood Witch laughed happily. Walking on the street, the Soulgate was the most eye-catching. They all wore black high-collared robes.
"Of course, Sister Blood Witch, this is nothing. Because the alchemy competition started first, there are still many experts who haven't arrived yet." Mu Qing smiled happily.
"It's about to start. Let's go." Xiao Chen smiled and walked towards the arena.
In front of the huge battle stage, the three elders of the auction house were discussing something. Not long after, one of the elders stood up and moved through the void, arriving on top of the battle stage. He exerted pressure on the crowd, indicating for them to quiet down.
In an instant, the whole place became unusually quiet. Everyone's eyes were focused on that elder. He was Zuo Qingyang, the first elder of the auction house.
Zuo Qingyang was wearing a blue robe. His hair and beard were white, and his face was wrinkled. However, there was a strong momentum between his eyebrows that could not be underestimated. Although no energy fluctuation could be detected from Zuo Qingyang, everyone knew that Zuo Qingyang's strength was very formidable.
"What a terrifying aura! This elder is an expert in the Crossing Calamity Stage! Moreover, he is also an alchemist! His soul power is even stronger than Senior Dong's! He is an eighth-grade alchemist! "Xiao Chen said in surprise. He could sense the energy fluctuation in Zuo Qingyang's body.
"What? An eighth-grade alchemist? "Xiao Chen's words startled Annihilation and the others.
"Amazing! He is an eighth-grade alchemist! As soon as this elder came out, everyone quieted down, "Gui Tu said in shock and sucked in a cold breath.
Zuo Qingyang glanced at the crowd, then smiled faintly and said, "Old Man is Zuo Qingyang, the first elder of the auction house. I'm sure everyone here knows the Old Man. The once-in-a-decade alchemy competition is about to begin. I'll cut to the chase and tell you the rules of the competition."
After a pause, Zuo Qingyang smiled and said, "The rules of the alchemy competition are very simple, but the requirements are relatively high because the champion will get a seventh-grade elixir this time. The rules are very simple. You only have one chance. If you fail, you will withdraw directly. There are 107 alchemists participating in the competition. In order to save time, we will compete together. The alchemy competition begins now!"
"Only one chance?"
"It's over. Once you fail, you will withdraw directly."
"Didn't we have two chances before? Why did it change again? "
The alchemists participating in the competition began to talk about it. When they heard that there was only one chance, they all became worried.
In the midst of the noise, Dong Daoxian appeared and smiled faintly. "When your name is called, please come to the arena. The auction house only provides medicinal materials. Bring your own alchemy furnace. Liu Qing, Zhang Hucheng …"
After half an hour, the alchemists participating in the alchemy competition had already lined up in several rows on the arena. The guards of the auction house would record the medicinal materials needed for the alchemy and bring them here.
"Xiao Chen is also participating in the alchemy competition? Is he also an alchemist? "Xu Qiuleng, the first disciple of the Tianxuan Valley, stared at Xiao Chen and asked.
"Xiao Chen is also an alchemist. How is that possible?" Another disciple of the Tianxuan Valley was also shocked.
Wei Yun and the others of the Natural Law Sect were also shocked. Wei Yun widened his eyes and said, "Xiao Chen is also an alchemist?"
"How is that possible? His cultivation is so strong, how can he have the time to refine alchemy? "Bai Xiaotian said with a face full of disbelief.
Not only were they shocked, but the onlookers were also shocked. Even the alchemists participating in the alchemy competition on the arena were shocked. The experts of various large and small forces couldn't believe that a person with such a strong cultivation actually had the time to refine alchemy!
Since Xiao Chen dared to participate in the alchemy competition, it meant that Xiao Chen's alchemy realm was not weak! Otherwise, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
Xiao Chen glanced at the alchemists on the arena and said in his heart, "It seems that there is no age limit for alchemists. As long as you are an alchemist, you can participate. Moreover, there are many high-grade alchemists. Those two old guys are sixth grade alchemists. It's really not simple."
"Finally, this day has come. I don't know how powerful the sect master's alchemy skills are!" Han You said in her heart, becoming more and more excited and expectant.
After the auction house guards prepared the herbs needed by the alchemists, Dong Daoxian smiled and said, "Very good. The alchemy competition will now begin. There are only two hours left."
As Dong Daoxian's voice fell, the alchemists began to get busy. They took out their respective pill furnaces, ignited their True Fire, and entered a state of alchemy. The surrounding cultivators all quieted down. Everyone knew that alchemy required a quiet environment.
"Xiao Chen, what's wrong? Why aren't you refining? "Ancient White Tiger Voice Transmission asked. Seeing that everyone else was refining, only Xiao Chen remained motionless.
Hearing this, Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Hehe, I want to see the alchemy techniques of the two sixth grade alchemists."
"I see. But why aren't there any seventh grade alchemists participating in the competition?" Ancient White Tiger asked again.
"Seventh grade alchemists are considered very powerful in the cultivation world. Do you think there is any meaning for them to participate in the alchemy competition? Otherwise, Senior Han You would be participating as well. "Xiao Chen smiled and said.
Seventh grade alchemists had a transcendent status in the cultivation world. Naturally, they would not participate in such a competition. Moreover, there were less than ten seventh grade alchemists in the cultivation world.
Few people in the cultivation world knew that Han You was a seventh grade alchemist. Everyone knew that Han You was only a sixth grade alchemist. If they knew, the Wu family, Zhou family, and Blood Demon Sect would not dare to make a move against Soulgate. Otherwise, Han You only needed to say a word, and countless experts in the cultivation world would be willing to make a move for the pills.
"What's wrong with Xiao Chen? Why isn't he refining? "A cultivator asked in confusion.
"What's wrong with Xiao Chen? Why hasn't he started refining? "Dong Daoxian was also confused. She frowned and looked at Xiao Chen.
"Xiao Chen is not simple. His Soul Power is so powerful. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, Old Man would never believe it. At the age of 20, not only has he reached the late stage of the Out of Body Realm, but he is also a sixth grade alchemist. There has never been a genius like him in the cultivation world," Zuo Qingyang said. He looked at Xiao Chen in shock.
"His eyes are firm and his face is calm. He is not flustered at all. His ability to strengthen Soulgate is enough to show that he is not simple," Second Elder Huang Baishan said with a faint smile.
"Why hasn't Xiao Chen started?" Gui Tu was confused and became anxious.
"Don't worry. Sect Leader is observing other people's alchemy techniques. He will start soon." Han You smiled faintly. Her eyes never left Xiao Chen.
"Bang!"
Before Xiao Chen started refining, a muffled sound came from the arena. Wisps of black smoke rose from one of the alchemy furnaces.
"Eliminated!" A guard in the auction house said. He signaled the alchemist who had failed to leave the arena.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
In less than half an hour, a series of muffled sounds came from the arena. Black smoke rose from the alchemy furnaces one after another. Looking at the black smoke rising from the alchemy furnaces, the alchemists left the arena in disappointment.
These alchemists who had failed were only third grade and fourth grade alchemists. Because they had not mastered the temperature required by the herbs, they had failed at the beginning.
"The two sixth grade alchemists are not simple. Their Soul Power is very strong." Xiao Chen observed for a while and thought to himself. However, he was not worried at all.
At the thought of this, Xiao Chen took out his alchemy furnace. Xiao Chen's alchemy furnace was not a high-end one. It was good enough as long as it could refine elixirs. Of course, some high-level elixirs required a high-quality alchemy furnace. Xiao Chen had not found one yet.
"Bang!"
The black fire within Xiao Chen's body burst out. With a boom, a black flame appeared in the center of Xiao Chen's palm, followed by a chilling aura that made one's heart tremble.
Feeling the chilling aura of the black fire, all the cultivators present turned pale with fright. The alchemist beside Xiao Chen fell to the ground in fear. His face was pale, and he stared at Xiao Chen's black flame with wide eyes.
Zuo Qingyang lost his composure and said, "What … what kind of flame is that? What a terrifying aura! "
"Black True Fire? Old Man has never seen it before. This flame is too strange! "Dong Daoxian was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out. The chilling aura terrified him.
