Who was Jiang Xiaofan? Perhaps not every disciple of the Imperial Heavenly School knew him, but the vast majority of them had heard of his name and knew of his deeds. Therefore, when the news spread out this time, many people rolled their eyes.
"Heavens, it's this ruthless person again. Why is there so much trouble with him?!"
"Too fierce, too valiant, he actually caused a ruckus in the Dan Court!"
"This lord is invincible. After a while, he probably even dares to tear down the Imperial Heavenly School!"
Ever since Jiang Xiaofan entered the Emperor Heaven School, the matters related to him had never stopped, and each one was crazier than the last. Now, he was actually going to compete with an old Alchemist from the Dan Court in terms of pill refining skills, which caused their jaws to drop to the ground.
"Boss, how can you compete with them in alchemy? This is not a joke!"
On Wuwei Peak, Lin Quan and Tang You were both moved and anxious. Jiang Xiaofan had made a bet with that person for them, but they were not clear about Jiang Xiaofan's attainments in alchemy, so they were very worried. They were afraid that he would be at a disadvantage, and that would be terrible.
"This, let's go and apologize. Let that person take back his order. If he wants to cripple our cultivation, he should cripple ours!"
"Right, right, right. Let's go and beg that person. If he wants to cripple us, our cultivation isn't high anyway!"
They didn't care about this apology at all, but they were worried about Jiang Xiaofan. If he lost, what would they do if he really crippled their cultivation? They would rather have their own cultivation crippled.
"It's fine, don't worry!"
With a smile on his face, Jiang Xiaofan shook his head and said that he was confident that Lin Quan and the other man could rest assured. They didn't need to do anything and could just wait for that old bastard to apologize on Wuwei Peak.
On the same day, Ye Yuanxue heard the news and came over. When she landed on Wuwei Peak, she pinched Jiang Xiaofan's ear and said fiercely, "What's wrong with you? Can't you stop stirring up trouble? You're infuriating me to death!"
Jiang Xiaofan rolled his eyes. Young Miss, can't you give me some face? I'm watching from the side.
However, he was actually very happy in his heart. He knew that Ye Yuanxue was worried about him. He pulled her over and walked towards a small forest at the side. He pulled Ye Yuanxue to sit on a bluestone and said, "Little Xue 'er, don't worry. You know that I never do things that I'm not confident in. This time, I will still win."
Ye Yuanxue blinked, staring at Jiang Xiaofan as she asked, "You really know how to concoct the Fasting Pill?"
Jiang Xiaofan snickered. He moved closer to Ye Yuanxue's ear and sniffed the faint fragrance on her body. He whispered, "Hehe, of course. Actually, I also know how to concoct pills."
"Aiya, so itchy, go away!" Ye Yuanxue pushed him away.
Three days passed quickly. Jiang Xiaofan came to the Pill Court as promised. Ye Yuanxue also came with him. She even pulled the master of Fairy Peak, Yu Wuyan, over. Obviously, she was afraid that something would happen to Jiang Xiaofan and wanted to support him.
"Greetings, Senior!"
Jiang Xiaofan bowed seriously. Although Yu Wuyan was able to come here largely because of Ye Yuanxue, he still expressed his gratitude.
Ye Qiuyu also came. She stood quietly at the side and nodded at Jiang Xiaofan.
"Let's begin …"
The Yangxin Palace Master had arrived a long time ago. She spoke expressionlessly.
The old man in the purple-gold robe was called Li Yun. He coldly glanced at Jiang Xiaofan and walked to the front of a cauldron. Jiang Xiaofan looked very casual. He nodded at Ye Yuanxue and the others and walked to the other cauldron on the opposite side.
This was a cauldron specially made for concocting medicinal pills, which surprised Jiang Xiaofan. As expected of an Immortal Dao Sect, they were indeed different. Normally, these people would only concoct Fasting Pills and Elemental Pills, but this cauldron was a Prized artefact.
He believed that there were even more profound alchemists in the Pill Court with powerful cultivations. The cauldrons that they used to concoct pills might be of a higher grade. They might even be supreme treasures. As for Immortal Artifacts, it was obviously impossible. If someone used Immortal Artifacts to concoct pills, it would be too extravagant, too extravagant.
Many people surrounded this place. Because it was a competition of alchemy, it was not held in private. The location was set in front of the Pill Court. The Yangxin Palace Master was in the center, and there were many disciples of the Imperial Heaven Sect standing nearby.
"Is he really going to compete with the alchemists of the Pill Court? Does he know how to concoct pills?"
"That's impossible. How could ordinary disciples know how to concoct Fasting Pills?"
"It's hard to say. Look at that Vicious Jiang, he looks so confident. This guy always pretends to be a pig to eat the tiger!"
"That's right. Don't be fooled by his delicate appearance. This guy is definitely a bastard. He's extremely daring!"
Jiang Xiaofan's spiritual sense was very strong now. Although these people's voices were very soft, they still did not escape his ears. He was so angry that he wanted to slap these people. 'Damn it, I'm such a good man. How am I a bastard?!'
"This old man will go first. I'll let you see how the pills are concocted. Otherwise, you won't know how to start later!"
Li Yun was the first to start. With his cultivation at the Ninth Celestial Layer of Jue Chen, he had been concocting Fasting Pills all year round. He was already very familiar with the process. A glaring alchemy fire quickly rose, and the cauldron let out a sizzling sound.
The time needed to concoct Fasting Pills was not long. The alchemy fire in Li Yun's hand jumped and surged into the cauldron. He used his mental power to control it. One could see that his expression was somewhat serious as he seriously urged the alchemy fire. Not long after, a faint medicinal fragrance came from the cauldron. Clearly, his Fasting Pill was about to be successfully concocted.
"It's done!"
Two hours later, Li Yun finished concocting. He opened the cauldron in front of him, and medicinal fragrance filled the air.
A few other elders from the Pill Court walked over. One of them picked up a pill, and his expression immediately changed. He turned to look at Li Yun and said in surprise, "Congratulations, Elder Li. Your alchemy skills have improved!"
"Hehe, it's nothing. I can't compare to Elder Liu …"
Li Yun said humbly. He sneered and looked at Jiang Xiaofan.
The Fasting Pills that he had concocted were distributed to the nearby spectators, causing a commotion. That was because the quality of the Fasting Pills that he had concocted this time was really not bad. It was far better than the Fasting Pills that the Imperial Heavenly Gate usually had.
Even Yu Wuyan couldn't help but frown. With just a sweep of her divine sense, she was able to determine the grade of these Fasting Pills. Indeed, they were much better than ordinary Fasting Pills. She glanced at Jiang Xiaofan, but no one knew what she was thinking.
"Pervert, you have to work hard and defeat that old man!"
Ye Yuanxue waved her fist at Jiang Xiaofan.
Jiang Xiaofan smiled and nodded. What could be more encouraging than having someone you like cheer for you? What's more, he didn't feel any pressure at all. He cultivated ancient alchemy techniques, which were far from what ordinary alchemy techniques could compare to.
If ordinary alchemy skills could turn stone into gold, then the ancient alchemy skills that he cultivated could turn rotten wood into the most perfect jade. It was flawless and beautiful.
He shook his head in disdain at Li Yun and the others. Then, he began. He stretched out his right hand, and a ball of gentle flame appeared out of thin air. It did not have the slightest bit of heat. It was very ordinary, and looked even weaker than ordinary flames.
Li Yun and the others laughed at that moment. They shook their heads and said, "I see that you might know a little about alchemy, but it's far from enough. You can't even release the temperature of alchemy fire, and you want to concoct a furnace of good alchemy. You are indeed an ignorant child."
"Looks like our Pill Court will have another servant who can chop wood and add fuel to the fire."
The few of them nodded and shook their heads. The expression on their faces was very playful. Li Yun sneered again and again. His right hand stroked his short beard with satisfaction, which made Jiang Xiaofan want to vomit.
"Old man, wait for me to go to Wuwei Peak and apologize!"
He did not say anything unnecessary. He used the ancient alchemy skills to activate his divine power. The gentle alchemy fire lingered at the bottom of the alchemy furnace, jumping slightly. This alchemy fire was formed by silver divine power, and it carried a faint divine aura.
This time, Jiang Xiaofan only used the silver divine power he had cultivated from the Dao Scripture to transform into alchemy fire. He did not inject any golden divine power into it, but even so, he was confident that he could defeat Li Yun because he had already tried many times.
"Why is there no reaction at all?"
"Why hasn't the alchemy furnace moved? Did he fail?"
"That's right. There's no medicinal fragrance coming out."
Many people voiced their doubts. Jiang Xiaofan's alchemy furnace did not react at all. There was no steam coming out of the furnace, and there was no medicinal fragrance coming out. It was as if there was nothing inside, and what was refined was just a mass of air.
"Young man, stop. Don't overestimate yourself. The alchemy materials inside have been destroyed. Don't worry and continue to chop firewood for my Pill Court. This is your final destination. It has long been destined!"
Several people in the Pill Court sneered. In their opinion, the result was obvious. Li Yun had won. They had been refining alchemy for many years, so they were very clear about this situation. It was a sign that the things inside had disappeared.
Jiang Xiaofan stopped and walked up slowly. He stood in front of the alchemy furnace and glanced at the elders beside Li Yun. Finally, his gaze fell on Li Yun. He said, "Old man, I've said it before. Your destination is to go to Wuwei Peak and apologize!"
With a wave of his right hand, the cauldron was opened. In an instant, a dense fragrance permeated the entire space, causing the minds of everyone to tremble. Even existences like the Hall Mistress of the Yangxin Palace and Yu Wuyan had expressions of shock on their faces.
"Everyone, try and see who has better alchemy."
With a light flick of his finger, sparkling and translucent pills flew out from the cauldron and floated into the crowd. Very soon, it caused quite a big uproar. It was obvious that these people were more amazed than the Fasting Pills refined by Li Yun.
"Is this the Fasting Alchemy? Why does it look so beautiful?"
"Eh, it doesn't have any bitter taste. Oh, it smells a little fragrant. This …"
"Heavens, is this the Fasting Alchemy? Why do I feel like it's an Origin Alchemy? "
The onlookers were shocked. They looked at Jiang Xiaofan and were tongue-tied. The Fasting Alchemy that they had just eaten was several times better than the Fasting Alchemy that Li Yun had refined. Its grade was almost comparable to an Origin Alchemy.
As everyone knew, although the Fasting Alchemy was also in the category of Origin Alchemy, it was far from being comparable to an Origin Alchemy. Whether it was the effect or the feeling, it was very poor. Ordinary Fasting Alchemy had a bitter taste, but the Fasting Alchemy that Jiang Xiaofan had refined did not. Instead, it had a fragrance.
Many people looked over. Obviously, in this alchemy contest, Jiang Xiaofan had won, and it was a complete victory!
