On the square, Song Yunxing and Di Que made their moves one after another, dyeing the entire sky red.
Everyone looked up, not wanting to miss any details.
Such a level of competition could only be seen at the Alchemy King Tournament.
Usually, it was very rare to see a fourth-grade alchemist refining pills.
The Crimson Dawn Spiritual Stove was fiery red like a ball of fire burning in the air.
On the other side, the Alchemy King Furnace emitted a terrifying aura that suppressed the surroundings.
The two of them were grandmasters in the alchemy world. Their alchemy process far exceeded that of others.
Lin Xuan raised his head to watch as well, constantly observing and learning.
"Eh, Song Yunxing is actually …" The elders beside him were bewildered.
Lin Xuan tilted his head and saw that Elder Jin and the others had ugly expressions.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"Song Yunxing seems to be refining a fifth-grade pill?" Elder Jin said.
"The Medicine Emperor Court is really ambitious!" the Second Palace Master said in a deep voice.
"A fifth-grade pill?" Lin Xuan was surprised. There weren't many such pills in the Heavenly Mountain Empire.
The success rate of refining a fifth-grade pill was very low. Furthermore, fifth-grade alchemists were even rarer. There was only one fifth-grade alchemist in the entire Heavenly Mountain Empire, and that was President Meng Chuan.
Even President Meng Chuan had a 50% failure rate when refining a fifth-grade pill.
Not to mention a fourth-grade alchemist like Song Yunxing.
"It seems like the Medicine Emperor Court is really desperate. Otherwise, they wouldn't take such a risk."
"Indeed, I think Dean Song only has a 20% success rate at most."
…
Everyone guessed, but Elder Blackheart was abnormally calm.
Song Yunxing's choice of a fifth-grade pill wasn't a spur of the moment decision. He had prepared it for a long time.
In the end, he maintained a success rate of about 40% before daring to use it in the competition.
This success rate was already very shocking. It even surpassed many fifth-grade alchemists.
On the stone platform, Di Que clearly sensed Song Yunxing's intentions.
He was surprised, but he didn't have too many concerns.
He had the ancient pill formula, so he could definitely win!
Time passed slowly. None of the contestants on the stone platform failed.
This also meant that these alchemists were far from being comparable to those young alchemists.
Gradually, pill fragrance wafted out of the square. Some people even condensed pills.
However, Di Que and Song Yunxing were still refining.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Scarlet Cloud Spiritual Stove let out a rumbling sound, filling the sky with multicolored light, and a thick pill fragrance spread out.
"Did he succeed?" Everyone was expectant. This was a fifth-grade medicinal pill!
Above the Scarlet Cloud Spiritual Stove, a lotus-shaped illusion appeared, and even a blue smoke appeared.
"It's appeared! The pill fragrance has taken form!" Someone cried out in alarm.
"That's nothing. Didn't you see the green smoke? That's a colored pill fragrance. Only a fifth-grade pill would have that!"
There was a wave of exclamations below. The pills that Song Yunxing refined had produced many kinds of strange phenomena, and all the competitors from the four sides were inferior.
"That's great! Daddy has mastered it!" Song Qianqian was overjoyed.
"Success on the first try! The headmaster's strength is too powerful. I'm afraid he's about to break through to the fifth-grade! "The elders of the Medicine Emperor Courtyard were abnormally excited.
Even Elder Blackheart's face was full of smiles. Success on the first try had already exceeded his expectations.
On the stone platform, Song Yunxing put the pills into a bottle and heaved a sigh of relief.
His hands were full of sweat, and the back of his shirt was also soaked.
Just now, he had used 120% of his strength and a trace of luck to refine a fifth-grade medicinal pill, the Spirit Cleansing Poison Dissolving Pill.
"A fifth-grade medicinal pill. Old geezer Di Que, let's see what you have to compete with me!" Song Yunxing turned his head and looked over.
"Eh, what kind of medicinal pill is this?"
When he saw Old Man Di Que's pill furnace, he was stunned.
Judging from the aura, it wasn't a fifth-grade medicinal pill, but the pill fragrance was very strange. It was filled with many kinds of fragrances, and when combined together, it wasn't inferior to his.
The crowd below also noticed this phenomenon, and immediately started discussing again.
"What kind of medicinal pill did the First Hall Master refine?" The elders of the Pill Emperor Hall were puzzled.
The two hall masters shook their heads in confusion. Recently, Di Que had been too mysterious. They couldn't find any useful information.
President Meng Chuan looked at the sky and revealed a look of astonishment. "This old geezer, where did he get such an exquisite pill recipe?"
"Although it's not a fifth-grade medicinal pill, its effect isn't much weaker than a fifth-grade medicinal pill."
"I originally thought that Song Yunxing would win this time, but now it seems that old geezer Di Que has a high chance of winning."
On the stone platform, Song Yunxing's face sank.
Although he was confident in his medicinal pill, the pill fragrance made him more and more flustered.
Buzz!
The Pill Emperor Furnace trembled, and a red pill fragrance floated out, rolling in the sky.
"It's here, there's a colored pill fragrance!"
Everyone became nervous, and they were all looking forward to it.
The red pill fragrance changed in the air, forming the shape of a peony.
"Pill fragrance condensed into form!"
The corners of Song Yunxing's mouth gradually curled up. If that was the case, then he would definitely win!
He had the colored pill fragrance, and he also had the pill shape. Furthermore, the grade of his medicinal pill was much higher than Di Que's.
No matter how one looked at it, he would win.
However, just as he was feeling proud, the red pill fragrance changed again.
After the peony phantom, another flower shape appeared.
"Two flowers!" Everyone exclaimed.
However, before they could react, another flower appeared in the sky.
"Three flower shadows!"
The cultivators in the square were in an uproar. They had never seen such a spectacle before.
They had never even heard of it!
"Impossible, what kind of medicinal pill is this? It can actually condense three flower shadows?" Song Yunxing's face was as black as a pot.
"Three flower shadows … Could it be an ancient pill recipe?"
Elder Blackheart's voice was cold. Black Qi rolled around his body, bringing with it a cold aura, like an invisible black hole.
Lost, lost again!
Even if he took out the pill recipe he obtained from a four-star sect, he still lost.
"Ancient pill recipe, it's actually an ancient pill recipe!"
"How can the Pill Emperor Hall have such a thing?" He couldn't understand. Even a four-star sect might not necessarily have an ancient pill recipe.
President Meng Chuan looked at the three flower shadows in a daze. "Old geezer Di Que not only cured his leg poison, he even has an ancient pill recipe. Could it be that he found an ancient ruin?"
"No, he has been in the Pill Emperor Valley all these years."
"Could it be Lin Xuan?" President Meng Chuan was shocked by this thought.
"Hehe, Dean Song, do you still want to compete?" Old geezer Di Que asked with a smile.
Right now, he was even more grateful for Lin Xuan's kindness. If it wasn't for Lin Xuan's pill recipe, he wouldn't have been able to win the competition.
Little friend Lin is indeed my benefactor in life!
"You've won!" Song Yunxing said with great difficulty.
It wasn't that he didn't want to fight back, but the three flower shadows were too mysterious. If he continued to quibble, he would become a joke.
It didn't matter if he lost the competition, but if he lost face, then he wouldn't be able to face anyone in the future.
"Hmph!"
Song Yunxing's face turned black. He flung his sleeves and walked towards the stage.
