"What? You don't dare?"
The fatty sneered when he saw Chu Ci's stunned expression. He looked at Chu Ci with disdain and provocation.
"Hmm?"
Chu Ci was startled when he saw the fatty. At this moment, Chu Ci suddenly became serious. There was no such word in Chu Ci's dictionary.
Chu Ci was displeased when he saw that he was being mocked. He said, "Come on, didn't you want to challenge me? I'll give you a chance today. I'll let you know what it means to be completely dominated. "
The fatty had completely ignited Chu Ci's competitive spirit, especially in front of Lin Ray. He didn't want to be defeated by this kind of trash.
"Good, you've got guts!"
The fatty nodded when he saw Chu Ci agree. His face was full of smiles, but he didn't know that what awaited him was a devastating blow.
"I'm You De Fa, an emperor level high level alchemist from the Rain Sect. Although I heard that you can refine a pill with five patterns, we'll have to see the next round!"
"Okay!" Chu Ci smiled and nodded. His lips curled up slightly, and a trace of mockery appeared.
Even so, Chu Ci didn't let down his guard against You De Fa. Instead, he became more nervous and serious.
Because of Linley's warning, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest. He didn't want to lose. He didn't want to beg in front of Linley. He didn't want to lose in front of so many people. He wanted to win, and he wanted to win beautifully and bring glory to Linley.
"Alright, alright. Since everyone is so excited, let's begin. Next, each of you will find your own opponent …"
"The time limit is three hours. Like before, any abnormalities after the time limit will be dealt with according to the rules of elimination."
Seeing that the situation was going well, Lu You hurriedly stood up and said to the crowd.
Just like that, the second round began. At this moment, everyone's gazes fell on Chu Ci and You Defa. After all, among everyone present, only the two of them had the highest alchemy skills. Moreover, they were especially looking forward to what pill Chu Ci would prepare next.
At the same time, even Linley was beginning to feel eager. He wanted to see what Chu Ci would do next.
Under the gazes of everyone present, Chu Ci and You Defa, who had the halo of a protagonist, began their battle.
Both of them went to their respective cauldrons. At this time, You Defa looked at the cauldron beside Chu Ci with envy in his eyes.
"Hey, how about we make a bet?"
"Hmm?" Chu Ci was stunned when he heard You Defa's request. However, he wanted to see what tricks You Defa had up his sleeve, so he said, "Let's not talk about the bet first. Tell me what the stakes are. If the stakes aren't equal, I won't agree."
Hearing this, You Defa was stunned for a moment, then a bright smile appeared on his face. With a harmless appearance, he muttered, "Actually, it's nothing. If I lose, you give me your cauldron. If I lose, I …"
"I don't want your pill furnace. Moreover, I don't think your pill furnace is worth that much!" Chu Ci hurriedly interrupted him when she heard that he was eyeing her pill furnace again.
A supreme-grade divine artifact was very precious to Chu Ci. Moreover, it was given to him by Lin Ray after the Worldly Huayu had been upgraded. How could he casually use something like that as a stake?
"Heh …. Of course it's not my cauldron! " Looking at Chu Ci, You Defa said, "I know your cauldron is a supreme-grade divine artifact. Therefore, I won't use my cauldron to bet with you. I'll use this!"
With that, he flipped his hand and a small, sparkling and translucent pagoda suddenly appeared. The moment the small pagoda appeared, a golden light shot into the sky. In the next moment, the small pagoda devoured all the Spiritual Qi within a hundred feet radius.
However, what made people sigh was that after devouring all the Spiritual Qi within a hundred feet radius, the small pagoda didn't do anything else.
Moreover, what made people curious was that the small pagoda didn't seem to be complete. It looked like there were only four levels of the pagoda. There were more levels above, but they weren't combined with the pagoda.
Looking at the small pagoda, although the moment it appeared, people would be shocked. Some people would even think that it was a supreme treasure. However ….
Looking at him, Chu Ci's face was indifferent. Chu Ci wasn't stupid enough to use his supreme-grade divine artifact to bet with this small pagoda.
However, among the people present, Lin Ray was stunned. His divine consciousness had been pulled into the system by the Little Dragon.
At this moment, in the system, the Little Dragon was like an otherworldly expert. Looking at Lin Ray, the Little Dragon said, "Take that pagoda back. Its origin isn't simple. Even your Chaotic Dragon Spear can't compare to it."
"What?"
Hearing the Little Dragon's words, Lin Ray was shocked. He didn't see anything special about the small pagoda, but seeing how serious the Little Dragon was, Lin Ray couldn't help but want to ask about the small pagoda's origin.
"Host, listen to the Little Dragon. Take down that small pagoda. It will be very helpful to your future. Moreover, if you can find the rest of the missing pagoda and combine them, the power will be devastating."
"Hiss …."
Just as Lin Ray was about to ask, the system, who had been silent all this time, opened its mouth. Moreover, it was catering to the Little Dragon's intention. Regarding this, Lin Ray was shocked.
This scene had never appeared ever since he got the system. And now, it was all because of a small pagoda. Moreover, it was a waste product. This made him value the small pagoda even more.
"Okay, I will let Chu Ci bet with him. But you must promise me that when I take back the small pagoda, you must tell me about the small pagoda's origin."
In response to Lin Ray's words, the Little Dragon and the system unanimously rejected Lin Ray.
Looking at Lin Ray, the Little Dragon said, "It's not that I don't want to tell you. It's just that the time isn't right. When you have the courage to merge with the Dao, I will tell you a little about the small pagoda's origin. As for now, you don't have the ability to do so, understand?"
"I …" Hearing the Little Dragon's words, Lin Ray, who still wanted to say something, fell silent in the end.
After all, they had been together for thousands of years. He had long understood the Little Dragon's character. He knew that the Little Dragon wouldn't go against its decision even if it had to die.
Regarding this, Lin Ray could only give up.
"Okay, go quickly. You must get this thing. Even if you have to snatch it …"
With that, without waiting for Lin Ray to say anything, the Little Dragon waved its hand. An invisible force pushed Lin Ray out of the system and back into the main body.
At this moment, just as Chu Ci was about to reject You Defa, Lin Ray hurriedly transmitted his voice to her, "Don't reject him. Agree to his bet. But you must win. I must have the small pagoda in his hands. Do you understand?"
"Uh … This … Okay!"
Originally, she wanted to refuse, but after hearing Lin Ray's order, Chu Ci was a little reluctant for a moment, but she still obeyed.
Looking at You Defa, Chu Ci subconsciously looked at the wager at the same time, and then responded, "I accept this bet. If you lose, the small pagoda is mine. If I tell you, my alchemy furnace is yours."
"Wow …"
Once these words were spoken, the crowd was in an uproar. Everyone began to lose their composure. They also saw the small pagoda's strange appearance, but they still felt that it was impossible for Chu Ci to accept a supreme-grade divine artifact.
But now, the result made everyone's jaws drop. Even after a long time, no one reacted.
Of course, among the crowd, except for Lin Ray. At this moment, Lin Ray couldn't wait for the bet to end quickly so that he could obtain the small pagoda and investigate it.
"Okay, since that's the case, let's begin. The bet has been going on for a while, I don't want to fall behind!"
Boom …
With that, a purple alchemy fire rushed out of his palm and he began to refine the pill.
Seeing You Defa like this, Chu Ci didn't want to fall behind. She sat down cross-legged and began to search for the ingredients to refine the supreme-grade Emperor Pill, the Tiger Yang Pill.
The Tiger Yang Pill was a famous Body Tempering Pill. If consumed by a Body Tempering Cultivator, it could increase the strength of their physical body. If consumed by a cultivator, it could also increase the strength of their physical body.
One had to know that the only weakness of a cultivator was that their physical body shrank. This was a common problem for all cultivators. Of course, except for Lin Ray and those who lived on the edge of a knife.
Some people would even take the initiative to increase the strength of their physical body. Of course, there were also some people who thought that as long as they cultivated spiritual energy, as long as their spiritual energy was strong enough, they could make up for the shortcomings of their physical body.
Seeing You Defa's progress, Chu Ci didn't delay any longer. She immediately took out her alchemy fire and began to preheat the pill furnace.
In just a short minute, the pill furnace was successfully preheated. Then, Chu Ci used the same method as before and threw all the spiritual herbs that were used to refine the Tiger Yang Pill into the pill furnace.
Perhaps it was because she had used the same method twice, but this time, Chu Ci's refining speed was especially fast and smooth. She didn't stop at all.
One by one, mysterious and beautiful runes appeared from Chu Ci's hands. She seemed to have entered a state of enlightenment. It was as if, in the entire world, there was only her and her pill furnace.
As time went on, Chu Ci's speed of forming hand seals became faster and faster. Perhaps even she didn't notice it.
This movement was smooth and fluid, and it was done in one go. If there was such a thing as perfection in the world, it would be nothing more than this.
At this moment, Lin Ray, who was sitting on the stage, saw Chu Ci's actions. Suddenly, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Heh, I didn't expect my luck to be so good. He actually gained enlightenment at this time. Looks like it won't be long before he completely enters the realm of a Grandmaster Alchemist."
Of course, for Lin Ray, it wouldn't be long. It could be a day, a year, or even ten years, a hundred years, or even a thousand years.
In the end, it would depend on that person's comprehension and temperament. Lin Ray couldn't help. In the end, she could only rely on herself.
As for the information, Chu Ci didn't even know that she had unintentionally entered the state of enlightenment that everyone dreamed of.
Time passed little by little. In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed. Some people couldn't bear the pressure of being challenged. Some even felt that they were simply too strong for their opponents, causing them to fail midway and be eliminated.
Fatty You Defa, who had bet with Chu Ci, opened his eyes at this moment. He had a smug smile on his face as he looked at Chu Ci, who was still refining. His heart was filled with indescribable joy and excitement.
"Hmph, aren't you awesome? Aren't you very fast at refining pills? In front of this young master, everything is trash! "
With that, You Defa formed hand seals and shouted, "Pill complete!"
"Weng …"
The rumbling sound of the pill furnace rang out. At this moment, everyone's eyes, including Linley's divine sense, turned towards You Defa. Although he knew that Chu Ci would respond, he still smiled worriedly.
Whoosh …
The moment You Defa retracted his pill fire, a dark red light rushed out of the pill furnace towards You Defa's direction.
"Oh … Fire Spirit Pill, high grade emperor level pill with four pill veins. Tsk, not bad!"
At this time, Lin Ray, who had used his consciousness, naturally knew what pill You Defa had refined. He even knew its effects, quality, and pill veins.
Seeing this, Linley let out a sigh of relief in his heart. In that moment, all of his worries and worries vanished like smoke into thin air.
"Hehe, let's see how you'll beat me now!" You Defa smiled as he put away his pill and walked towards Lu You.
"Weng …"
At this moment, a buzzing sound came from behind. You Defa stopped walking and turned his head to look in Chu Ci's direction. He saw a yellow light, like a comet, fall into Chu Ci's hand and put it into a pill bottle.
"Phew …" Chu Ci breathed a sigh of relief. However, because she had used her mental strength again, she was even more dispirited now.
"Hmph, so what if you've refined it? You're still later than me!" Seeing that Chu Ci had finished refining the pill, You Defa snorted coldly. He walked towards Lu You and handed him the Fire Spirit Pill.
"Tourism Association President, this is the pill I refined. Please take a look!"
"Alright!"
Hearing this, Lu You quickly took the pill from You Defa's hand and looked at it.
"Hiss …"
When Lu You saw You Defa's pill, his eyes widened and his face was filled with shock. He sucked in a breath of cold air.
However, because he had seen Chu Ci refine five pill veins, he quickly calmed down.
"Hmm, not bad. The Fire Spirit Pill can increase the cultivation of those with Fire Spiritual Roots. It's a high grade emperor level pill and can be used by cultivators below the Godly Emperor Realm."
"Tsk tsk tsk, the Rain Sect is so lucky to have such a great alchemist to help them. No wonder they can become one of the seven sects!"
"Yeah, that's right."
At this moment, the higher-ups and disciples of the Rain Sect heard the discussions around them and their faces were filled with pride.
"Quick, let's see what Chu Ci's pill is like!" Just as the people from the Rain Sect were feeling proud of themselves, someone suddenly shouted. Lu You excitedly placed the Fire Spirit Pill in his hand on the table beside him. Then, his expectant gaze landed on Chu Ci who was standing behind You Defa.
