Ye Mo stood there, still not starting to cultivate. Indeed, he had no confidence in using this cauldron to cultivate the Heaven Spirit Return Pill, and only one pill at that.
"I have something to say!"
Ye Mo extended his hand and said calmly, "Competition judge, I have an opinion!"
"What is this Ye Xiao trying to do?"
Dan Dongfeng frowned.
"Let's see what he's trying to do!"
The Pill Saint said.
"Yes!"
Dan Dongfeng nodded and transmitted his voice, "What opinion do you have?"
"Logically speaking, I have to abide by the rules of the competition," Ye Mo said. "But I'm a clean freak. I'm used to using my own cauldron, and I don't feel comfortable using someone else's cauldron.
Ye Mo said lightly.
"No way. All of the participants use the cauldron provided by the Pill Clan to cultivate. If you use your own cauldron, it will be unfair to the other participants."
Dan Dongfeng's reply was firm and decisive.
"I can reduce the purity of the pills I cultivate by five percent."
Ye Mo's words caused an uproar in the crowd. Five percent purity was a huge gap. The contestants were all very strong, and they were able to refine pills with at least 85 percent purity. This meant that if Ye Mo wanted to get into the top three, he would have to refine the Heaven Spirit Soul Return Pill with markings. Only then would he have a chance of winning.
If Ye Xiao wanted to become the champion, it would be even more difficult.
"Where does this Ye Xiao get his confidence from?"
The elders of the Dan Clan in the void were also shocked. Even if it was a Dan Sage who participated in this competition, he wouldn't be able to guarantee his victory even if he lost 5% of his essence.
But this time, the Pill Saint's disciple and Dan Chenzi's pills had been prepared in advance. Both pills were at 95 percent purity. No matter how strong Ye Mo was, he wouldn't be able to win.
"Alright, the judges of the competition have discussed it and agreed to your suggestion. However, the medicinal pills you refine must have their purity reduced by five percent."
An old voice echoed in the air, causing Ye Mo to tremble. Since he could use the Earth Fiend Demonic Furnace, he had absolute confidence in cultivating the Heaven Spirit Return Pill.
With a wave of Ye Mo's hand, the cauldron in front of him moved horizontally. With a flash of light, the Earth Fiend Demonic Cauldron appeared and smashed the cauldron onto the square, causing a huge explosion.
"Now, I will amaze everyone and let you know what a supreme grade Heaven Spirit Soul Return Pill is. This pill will be the pill to save Mengli, and it will also be the pill for me to take first place."
With a thought, Ye Mo started to cultivate in an orderly manner.
His technique was still very rusty, but it did not affect his success rate.
Time ticked by in the field.
Just as Ye Mo was nervously cultivating, the other contestants had also started cultivating their best pills. However, they did not take out their pills, instead waiting patiently.
Ye Mo scanned his surroundings. Seeing that the other nine had already finished cultivating, he continued to control the Tomb Dragon Power in an orderly manner. His Spiritual Power was also focused on the reaction within the cauldron.
At this moment, the medicinal ingredients in the cauldron had all been converted into medicinal liquid. Under the catalysis and control of the Tomb Dragon Energy, they slowly fused together and formed into a pill.
"There are seven breaths left in the competition countdown."
At that moment, Dan Dongfeng started to remind the contestants that the time for one joss stick to burn was almost up.
At that moment, almost everyone was staring at Ye Mo. Many of the alchemists could see that Ye Mo's technique was very rusty, and even they could not compete with him. But he was able to defeat the Pill Devil's descendant. This was simply unbelievable.
"This guy's technique is completely new. I wonder how he made it to the finals."
"Maybe he's just lucky. He's always going up against weak contestants."
The contestants started to discuss among themselves.
At that moment, everyone was silently counting down in their hearts, as if every beat of their heart was a breath of time.
"Three, two, one!"
Then, at that moment, an explosion rang out from within the Earth Fiend Demonic Cauldron.
Meltdown complete!
"The competition has ended. Ten contestants, please stay away from the cauldron."
As the voice rang out, Dan Dongfeng descended from the sky, landing between the ten contestants and the cauldron.
At that moment, everyone held their breaths, waiting for the result of the competition.
"Open the Pill Saint's descendant's cauldron!"
Dan Dongfeng said. Then, a man dressed like an alchemist apprentice slowly walked up and opened the cauldron. Immediately, a pill flew out from the cauldron, with clear veined patterns and a dazzling luster. The appearance of this pill attracted everyone's attention.
Even the other contestants were shocked when they saw the pill floating in the air.
"It's the Purplefrost Netherfire Pill. Looking at the luster and veined patterns, the purity should be at 95%."
The few contestants could tell with a single glance that the purity of the Purplefrost Netherfire Pill had reached 95%.
"As expected of the Pill Saint's descendant. To be able to cultivate a Level Nine Purplefrost Netherfire Pill to such a level, looks like the champion of the Alchemist Competition will definitely be him."
"We must find a way to recruit the Pill Saint's descendant into the Dead Soul Royal Clan and have him work for us."
The Purplefrost Netherfire Pill concocted by the Pill Saint's descendant immediately caused an uproar in the crowd. It was as if no one had thought that a ninety-five percent purity pill would appear in the Alchemist Competition. One should know that in the previous Alchemist Competition, there wasn't even a pill with pill veined patterns.
"Next, open Dan Chenzi's cauldron!"
The alchemist apprentice opened Dan Chenzi's cauldron once again. Another eye-catching pill appeared, the Innate Divine Cloud Pill. Its purity wasn't any weaker than the Purplefrost Netherfire Pill. The two pills floated in the air, radiating light in all directions.
"Another pill with ninety-five percent purity. Moreover, the difficulty of refining these two pills isn't too different. I'm afraid the champion this time will be in suspense."
"Coming all the way to Pill City to watch the Alchemist Competition, it's really worth it."
"Yeah, it's really surprising. There's actually a pill with ninety-five percent purity."
The Pill Saint's descendant and Dan Chenzi's expressions didn't change. They knew very well that the result this time was manipulated behind the scenes. Their goal was clear. First, they wanted to ensure that they would win the Alchemist Competition. Second, they wanted to raise their alchemy skills and let the outside world know that they could refine pills with ninety-five percent purity.
After the competition, the Dead Soul Royal Clan and the Dead Soul Clan would throw an olive branch to the Pill Clan, allowing them to directly control the entire alchemy world.
Although the next few cauldrons produced pills that were also very shocking, none of them had pill veined patterns. The best pill was concocted by Li Duan Mu, it had a purity of eighty-nine percent.
"There's also Ye Xiao's pill!"
"Ye Xiao is concocting the Heavenly Soul Return Pill. It's very difficult to refine and it's hard to guarantee the purity. In addition, he has to bear the five percent purity reduction. It's almost impossible for him to get into the top three."
Several old men whose alchemy skills had reached the Grandmaster level began whispering to each other.
