After Ye Mo won three rounds in a row, he was teleported out. He appeared in the center of the square, surrounded by cheers.
Next, the Pill Saint's successor, Dan Chenzi, Li Duanmu, Chen Tianran, and a total of ten people appeared in the center of the square. These ten people were the top ten alchemists.
"What's going on? Where's the Pill Devil's successor? "
The Pill Saint's successor looked around and didn't see the Pill Devil's successor among the ten.
"I'm not sure. Did he get eliminated? How is that possible? "
Dan Chenzi was shocked as well. In their opinion, the only alchemists capable of defeating the Pill Devil's successor were the two of them.
"Congratulations to the ten people standing in the center of the square," a voice said. "You have all entered the finals. Now, I will announce the rules of the finals."
A voice suddenly rang out around the square, causing all ten of them to turn serious.
"The finals will be a free-for-all," the voice said. "But the herbs and cauldrons will be provided by the Pill Clan. The ten of you will be using the Spirit Light Cauldron used by the normal disciples of the Pill Clan. It can increase the success rate of refining pills by 10%. As for the herbs, we will provide you with any pills you can think of."
Ye Mo's expression changed. The finals didn't allow him to use his own cauldron. Didn't that mean he couldn't guarantee success in refining pills?
The expressions of the other alchemists didn't change much. Even if the cauldron didn't increase the success rate, they still had a 100% success rate.
"Looks like the Pill Clan is making their move. They'll definitely tamper with the cauldrons."
The Pill City Lord sighed and said, "I can only hope that Ye Mo can create a miracle."
"Next, I will announce the rules and rewards of the competition," the Pill City Lord said. "There is no limit to the number of pills you can refine. In order to demonstrate your control over pill refining, you can only use the amount of herbs needed to refine one pill. The top three will be selected based on the difficulty of refining pills and the purity of the pills. "
"Apart from being able to take away the pills you refine, the first place will also receive the Nine Dragon Golden Cauldron!"
Whoosh!
The moment these words were spoken, a commotion broke out in the surroundings. The Nine Dragon Golden Cauldron was the number one cauldron in the alchemy world. It possessed the Nine Dragon Golden Flame and could raise the purity of the elixir to the maximum. It was a cauldron that all alchemists yearned for.
"As for the second and third place, they will also receive the Divine Phoenix Cauldron and the Clear Water Fish Cauldron respectively."
Although these two pill furnaces could not compare to the Nine Dragon Golden Furnace, each of them was ranked at the top of the Pill Furnace List.
"The time limit for the competition is one incense stick's worth of time. Let the competition begin!"
After this voice sounded, a cauldron appeared in front of each of the ten individuals. The surroundings also became quiet. Many pairs of eyes contained excitement and worship as they stared intently at the ten figures in the arena.
"Are we going to start?"
Ye Mo frowned as he looked at the cauldron that had appeared before him. This was the real test of his pill refining skills. Not only was he unable to use the Demon Furnace, but he was also only able to cultivate a single pill.
The herb table appeared in front of them again. Several alchemists walked forward to choose their herbs and prepared to cultivate the pills they were good at.
"No matter what, I have to succeed this time. I have to cultivate the Heaven Spirit Soul Return Pill."
Ye Mo's eyes were filled with determination. He took large strides forward and started to choose his herbs.
He chose a small portion of each of the Silver Frost Grass and the Soul Spirit Grass, ensuring that he would be able to cultivate a single pill. After that, he returned to his seat and started cultivating.
"That Ye Xiao chose the Soul Spirit Grass and the Silver Frost Grass. Could it be that he is going to cultivate the most difficult pill to cultivate, the Heaven Spirit Soul Return Pill?"
An elder of the Dan Clan said in astonishment, "If he manages to cultivate the Heaven Spirit Soul Return Pill with 85% purity and above, I'm afraid he will be the champion of the Alchemist Competition."
"Don't worry, the scoring rights are in our hands. No matter how strong Ye Xiao is, he won't be the champion. Furthermore, Dan Chenzi and the Pill Saint's successor have already placed two pills in their cauldrons. They are pills personally cultivated by the Pill Saint, the Purple Frost Netherfire Pill and the Connate Spirit Cloud Pill. The difficulty of cultivating these two pills is the same. Although they are not as high as the Heaven Spirit Soul Return Pill, the Pill Saint managed to cultivate both pills to 95% purity. The two of them will be the champion of the Alchemist Competition."
Another elder of the Dan Clan said solemnly.
In this competition, they had initially thought that the appearance of the Pill Devil's successor would be a variable. That was why they had planned this beforehand.
As long as they won the Alchemist Competition, with the help of the Pill Saint, they would be able to rightfully take over the entire Pill City. As long as they had the most talented alchemist, they would be in control of everything. Experts from all the forces were throwing olive branches at the Pill Saint's successor and Dan Chenzi.
The Dan Clan wanted to control the entire world of alchemy.
"What if that Ye Xiao cultivates a top-grade Heaven Spirit Soul Return Pill?"
One of the elders was slightly worried after witnessing Ye Mo's various tricks.
"Impossible."
The Pill Saint immediately said, "The Heaven Spirit Soul Return Pill is much more difficult to cultivate than the Divine Sovereign Pill. It's already a miracle to cultivate a top-grade Divine Sovereign Pill. It's impossible to cultivate the Heaven Spirit Soul Return Pill to the point where it smells like a pill."
The way they saw it, the Alchemist Competition this time might be a variable, but it was still within their control.
Apart from Ye Mo, the rest of the 10 people in the center of the plaza were all busy cultivating.
"Hey, that guy should be the kid representing Yang Qingshu, right? Why isn't he cultivating yet? "
While Li Duanmu was cultivating, he glanced at Ye Mo from the corner of his eyes. When he saw that Ye Mo wasn't doing anything, he couldn't help but feel puzzled. Logically speaking, the earlier one started, the easier it would be to increase the purity of the pill to the maximum.
Many of the alchemists in the plaza locked their gazes on Ye Mo. The other nine alchemists didn't know that Ye Mo had defeated the Pill Devil's successor, but the alchemists in the plaza knew. Hence, they were all looking forward to Ye Mo's performance.
However, when Yang Rong saw that Ye Mo was still standing there without making a move, she didn't have much expectation.
Yang Rong knew very well that Ye Mo was only able to increase his success rate to 100% with the help of the Earth Fiend Demon Furnace. Without it, Ye Mo might not be able to cultivate the Heaven Spirit Soul Return Pill.
"Sigh!"
Yang Rong sighed softly. Using the furnace provided by the competition for the finals was something they hadn't expected. Based on Ye Mo's skills, even if he couldn't become the champion, he would still be able to get into the top three based on his ability to eliminate the Pill Devil's successor.
