As everyone knew, cultivators, alchemists, blacksmiths, and array masters were all different professions. It wasn't impossible to cross professions, but the price of crossing professions was usually a complete loss. Nothing could be gained, and in the end, nothing could be achieved.
After all, a person's energy and lifespan were limited. Even if one had three heads and six arms, it was impossible to do infinite things in a limited time.
When Xiao Fan wanted to accept him as a disciple, Lime subconsciously thought that Xiao Fan was also a young, promising, and extraordinary alchemist. However, who would have thought that Xiao Fan actually had a cultivator as a disciple? What was this?
If he accepted a cultivator and an alchemist as his disciple at the same time, would he be able to teach his disciple well?
Moreover, before he met the 109th Senior Brother whom he had never met, there were 108 Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters. What professions were they in?
Could it be that not only were they alchemists, but they were also alchemists and cultivators?
Thinking of this, Lime's heart suddenly thumped!
"Young man, from what you said, it seems that you boast that your alchemy skills are very high? No one can compare to you? " The eyebrow-less old man spoke at this time, his face full of sarcasm, and his voice full of ridicule, "You're so arrogant at such a young age. I really want to ask, how high is the sky? How thick is the earth? "
"Master is right. Young people should be more humble. Don't think too highly of yourself. Don't think that you don't even know your name just because you know something!" As soon as the eyebrow-less old man's voice fell, a male disciple immediately chimed in, his voice full of sarcasm.
"Everyone knows how to boast. However, it all depends on whether or not he has real ability. Could it be that he's just an embroidered pillow that only looks good but is useless?" A female disciple also spoke. She looked at Xiao Fan and sneered without holding back.
The other male and female disciples also spoke, one after another. They were all sneering and ridiculing Xiao Fan.
However, Xiao Fan remained unmoved in the face of the unbridled ridicule of the eyebrow-less old man and his disciples. He was not angered by their ridicule at all and remained calm.
Furthermore, Xiao Fan waited until their voices grew softer and they were done mocking him. Only then did he continue.
"In front of me, not to mention that you don't know anything about alchemy, none of the alchemists in the entire Spirit Realm or the entire Eastern Spirit Lower State would dare to say that they know anything about alchemy!" Xiao Fan glanced at the eyebrow-less old man and the group of disciples, and said coldly, "As for trash like you, if it weren't for Lime, you wouldn't even have the right to say the word 'pill refining' to me!"
When they heard Xiao Fan's words, Lime, the eyebrow-less elder and the other disciples were momentarily stunned. For a moment, they were unable to say anything, and even their breathing involuntarily became sluggish.
This was because Xiao Fan's words were simply too arrogant in their ears. He was so arrogant that he was simply lawless. No one could compare to him.
But very quickly!
"Good, good, good!" The eyebrow-less old man recovered from his shock, and then he started laughing out of extreme anger. After that, he took a step forward, stared at Xiao Fan, and said in a stern voice, "What an arrogant and ignorant junior!"
"No matter what, I will teach you a lesson today so that you will understand what it means to be humble and what it means to say that there is always someone better than you out there!"
"Go, get my two pill furnaces and my medicinal ring. I want to compete with this arrogant and ignorant junior in alchemy!"
"Yes, Master!" As soon as the eyebrow-less old man finished speaking, his disciples looked at each other in dismay. Then, a few of them immediately spoke up and quickly left to retrieve the pill furnaces and medicine ring.
"Compete in alchemy?"
When he heard the eyebrow-less old man's words, Xiao Fan raised his eyebrows. He was just about to refuse because he had no interest in wasting time competing with the eyebrow-less old man in alchemy. However, in an instant, he stopped himself and looked thoughtfully at Lime.
He had just accepted Lime as his disciple, so it was a good time for him to make a move and let Lime see him clearly. He did not want to arouse any suspicions in Lime's heart that would affect his future teaching of Lime.
There was no harm in making a move when the time was right. For the time being, this would be his first lesson to Lime!
"Compete in alchemy with me? Sure! " Xiao Fan spoke and nodded in agreement. Then, he glanced at the eyebrow-less old man and said unhurriedly, "As for the alchemy, let's compete in the Tigerwolf Pill!"
"The Tigerwolf Pill uses the Crimson Blood Wolf Bamboo as the main ingredient. I will also let you see clearly whether it was a mistake to add the water of the River of Spirits during the second transformation of the Crimson Blood Wolf Bamboo!"
"That's exactly what I was thinking!" The eyebrow-less old man immediately shouted, "I also want to let you see clearly whether it was a mistake to add the water of the River of Spirits during the second transformation of the Crimson Blood Wolf Bamboo. There is no better way to compete in the Tigerwolf Pill!"
With that, the eyebrow-less old man did not want to look at Xiao Fan again. He walked straight to the side and waited with a cold and angry expression for his disciple to deliver the alchemy furnace and medicine ring.
"Lime, when the alchemy begins, I will deliberately slow down the process. Watch carefully. After that, I will give you a little test!" Xiao Fan said to Lime.
"Yes, Master!" It was like a dream to have Xiao Fan as her Master. Lime's head was still a little dizzy at the moment. In response to Xiao Fan's words, she subconsciously opened her mouth and replied.
A moment later!
Two identical alchemy furnaces with almost no difference were sent over. The eyebrow-less old man also put on his own medicine ring and took out two sets of medicinal herbs needed to refine the Tiger-Wolf Pill, placing them on both sides of the two alchemy furnaces.
Xiao Fan raised his hand and pulled out a stalk of Crimson Blood Wolf Bamboo from the medicinal field on the ground. This stalk of Crimson Blood Wolf Bamboo was watered by Lime with the water of the River of Spirits.
"Open the furnace!" Without any superfluous words, the eyebrow-less old man shouted loudly. His voice was like thunder, and then he began to refine the Tigerwolf Pill.
Fortunately, this was the exclusive medicinal field of the eyebrow-less old man, the consecrated alchemist of the Yulong Elixir House. There was no one else around. Otherwise, the competition between him and Xiao Fan would have attracted a lot of attention.
Only the guests in the VIP room in the distance noticed the change here. A few of them were curious and looked over through the window.
"Three grams of twelve-year-old Thousand Star Flower, four grams of ninety-year-old Hundred Years Grass, one gram of two-hundred-year-old Wuyin Root …!" The eyebrow-less old man kept talking. Then, his disciples stepped forward and put the required medicinal herbs into the alchemy furnace.
"Master, what medicinal herbs should I put in?" On Xiao Fan's side, Lime took the initiative to run to the side of the alchemy furnace and asked very obediently. He was ready to assist Xiao Fan.
To a certain extent, an alchemist took in disciples to save his own energy. This was because many medicinal herbs needed to be put in continuously during the refining process. If the alchemist did it alone, wouldn't he be exhausted to death?
With a disciple helping him do some of the most basic physical work, it would save a lot of energy. At the same time, it would conserve energy and increase the success rate of refining pills. After all, not all alchemists could be like Xiao Fan, who could take medicinal herbs from the void and do it with ease.
"No, you just watch from the side!" Xiao Fan shook his head and asked Lime to come back. There was no need for him to interfere.
"Yes!" Lime was stunned. She was a little shocked that Xiao Fan didn't want anyone's help and wanted to refine pills alone. However, she still obediently replied and quickly retreated.
"Go!"
After Qing Ning retreated, Xiao Fan's body didn't move. He still stood in the same place as he spat out a single word. Then, with a tremble of his feet, all the medicinal ingredients on the side of the cauldron floated into the air. Moreover, they separated from each other as if they were an orderly army of medicinal ingredients. They were ready to be thrown into the cauldron by themselves to begin refining the pill.
"This …!"
Seeing that Xiao Fan didn't even need Lime's help to refine pills, the eyebrow-less old man and the group of disciples had a mocking look on their faces. They wanted to mock Xiao Fan for being arrogant, but in the next second, they saw all the medicinal herbs float into the air automatically. Their voices stopped abruptly. Each of them looked like they had swallowed a whole egg. Their mouths were wide open and they couldn't say anything.
In the entire Pill City, only a few of the most famous alchemy grandmasters were able to use this technique. The other alchemists were all lacking in experience. It was still difficult for them to use this technique.
The eyebrow-less old man was able to become an alchemist consecrated by the Jade Dragon Alchemy House and a three-star alchemist in Pill City. Even though his character wasn't good, his ability to refine pills wasn't a problem.
However, even he couldn't refine pills through the air. Moreover, he was still quite a distance away from that. Therefore, when he saw Xiao Fan use this method, he was shocked.
At the same time, a sudden thought flashed across the eyebrow-less old man's mind. His heart suddenly shrank and his back suddenly lit up.
This unfamiliar young man whose identity and background he didn't know, could it be that he wasn't being arrogant and was just telling the truth?
He paused for a moment!
The eyebrow-less old man tossed aside his distracting thoughts and calmed down once more. Afterwards, his eyes were filled with seriousness. He no longer looked down on Xiao Fan in the slightest. He brought out all of his abilities, and with a hundred and twenty percent of his concentration, he began to refine the Tigerwolf Pills.
However, at this moment!
"Lime, watch carefully!" Xiao Fan said. His voice was very serious.
Then, as soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Fan used a total of 132 alchemy techniques at an extremely slow speed. At the same time, the giant hand in the air shook and the fire below the alchemy cauldron started to burn. He officially started to refine pills.
In this competition, other than the alchemy techniques and the main medicinal herbs, the alchemy cauldron, fire, and other external conditions were the same.
