Obviously, each of these steps wasn't particularly difficult if they were to be done separately.
However, once they were combined, it was no longer as simple as adding them together. Everything needed to be done with energy. If these three things were combined, then the energy consumption would increase exponentially.
The most important thing was the last step, which was to identify the problem with the spiritual medicine. This kind of thing tested the alchemist's standard the most. If the standard was not high, not to mention finding all the problems in the spiritual medicine, they might not even be able to find a single problem.
Moreover, this extremely troublesome thing was left at the end. There was no doubt that at this time, everyone's physical strength had been greatly depleted. If they were to do this at this time, it was very likely that they would make a mistake due to insufficient physical strength.
Therefore, when they heard the rules of the second round of the competition, the originally relaxed expression on their faces instantly disappeared.
"Everyone, I will now give each of you an hour to rest."
Duanmu Cheng's calm gaze swept across the audience indifferently, then he continued, "Get ready to face the challenge! I'll make it clear in advance that only five people can successfully advance in this round. In order not to be eliminated, you'd better work hard! "
After saying that, he returned to his seat, the expression on his face did not change.
Honestly speaking, an hour's time was indeed not enough for everyone who had just experienced the first round of the competition. It was precisely because of this that this hour's rest time was particularly important.
At that moment, no one said a word of nonsense and directly entered the state of meditation to begin to restore the mental strength that they had previously consumed.
At this time, Huangfu Ming waved his hand and called over a follower beside him. Then, he moved closer to the guard and whispered something.
Immediately after, the follower nodded and turned to leave.
"Huangfu Ming, what tricks are you up to now?"
Everything that Huangfu Ming had done was already seen by Duanmu Cheng. Seeing that the two of them were acting suspiciously, he immediately questioned them.
Huangfu Ming was, after all, an old fox. Facing Duanmu Cheng's questioning, he was quite calm and did not show the slightest timidity, "Junior Brother, you should also change your temper. What I do is my privacy, what does it have to do with you? "
"I naturally don't care what you want to do," said Duanmu Cheng coldly. However, if I find out that you're planning to do something to my disciple behind my back, I won't let you off! "
Huangfu Ming chuckled and said, "Junior Brother, you're really prejudiced against me. Moreover, since you have so much confidence in your precious disciple, would you still be afraid of others playing tricks behind your back? "
Duanmu Cheng pursed his lips and said, "Even if I die, my impression of you won't change in the slightest. If I find out that you're plotting against Qin Yi and the others behind my back, I don't mind letting you have a taste of the consequences! "
Huangfu Ming still smiled calmly and said, "Junior Brother, don't you think that your threats are a bit outdated? Let me tell you, before you have the ability to protect your disciple's life, you better not try to anger me! "
Duanmu Cheng shook his head and said, "I know my own disciple very well. If you want to deal with him, it's best to put away your insidious thoughts before you have the absolute certainty of winning. "
Huangfu Ming raised his brows and said, "Is that so? If that's the case, then I'm really looking forward to seeing who will have the last laugh between the two of us. "
The competition hadn't started yet, but the judges' seats were already filled with the smell of gunpowder. An hour quietly passed as the two of them bickered with each other.
Finally, it was time for the competition to start. The Valley Master of Pill King Valley also stood up from his seat and said, "Everyone, time is up."
Hearing this, everyone opened their eyes from their rest and looked towards the front with a slightly perturbed gaze.
At this moment, the only ones whose expressions didn't change were Qin Yi and the other three who were ranked at the top. Obviously, they were all very confident in their own strength.
The Valley Master of Pill King Valley didn't say any unnecessary nonsense. Immediately, he opened his palm and with a flash of light, ten examination papers suddenly appeared in his hand. "These are your examination papers. Although the pill formula is the same, the content is different."
The purpose of this was nothing more than to prevent people from being opportunistic and communicating their answers.
After saying this, the Valley Master of Pill King Valley didn't waste any more time and directly ordered people to distribute the items.
Very quickly, everyone received their examination papers. After taking a look at the questions, they all sat down with a solemn expression and began to think hard.
"Nine Cauldrons Purple Spiritual Pill? This pill is actually quite simple. "
After receiving the examination papers, Qin Yi directly glanced at the questions, then a relaxed smile appeared on his face.
Obviously, to someone like him who had read millions of books, this Nine Cauldrons Purple Spiritual Pill was really not a big problem.
Completing the pill formula was a type of competition where both luck and strength coexisted.
The so-called luck was that he just happened to have seen and memorized this pill recipe before. After knowing the correct pill formula, it really wasn't a particularly difficult task to complete the pill formula.
However, this luck was also built on the foundation of strength.
If one didn't have sufficient strength and a memory reserve that far surpassed that of an ordinary person, even the simplest pill recipe placed in front of them would give them unprecedented difficulties.
After all, in a situation where one didn't know the pill formula, to complete the pill formula, one had to rely on one's own deduction and calculation. Without a doubt, this method of completing the pill formula was also a form of torture for those who didn't have enough strength.
The Nine Cauldrons Purple Spiritual Pill was a type of Supreme Dao Pill. To most of the disciples who were currently competing, their strength was far from enough to come into contact with this level of pill formula. Since they didn't come into contact with it, they naturally didn't know how to complete the pill formula.
Even if they wanted to derive the formula, they didn't know where to start!
Even Hong Yu, who was the first to complete the first round, furrowed his brows tightly. It was obvious that he hadn't come into contact with the Nine Cauldrons Purple Spiritual Pill before. Therefore, if he wanted to fill in the missing ingredients on the pill formula, he had to go through derivation.
At this moment, he couldn't help but glance in Qin Yi's direction from the corner of his eye.
