Drunk Immortal Gourd

In the blink of an eye, twenty people in the hall each occupied a circle of light, and Qingyang was no exception. It wasn't very clear from the outside, but after entering, he realized that the things inside the aperture were more complete than he imagined, and the layout was like an alchemist's alchemy room.

The entire aperture is not large, only about four or five feet in diameter. In the middle is an alchemy furnace, and there is a platform nearby with several holding talismans placed on it. Inside the holding talismans, there are various alchemy furnaces. Materials and spiritual materials for ignition.

At the innermost part of the platform is a small incense burner, with a slender sandalwood burning inside. It burns very slowly, apparently for timing purposes.

In the assessment of an alchemist, the rate of elixir formation is the most important indicator. It is not only the standard for judging the level of an alchemist, but also relates to the efficiency of an alchemist. If the rate of elixir formation is low, the value of the elixir is not as high as the material, and it will only You lose money, but the higher the elixir success rate, the more spiritual stones you earn.

The second is the quality of the elixir. For the same elixir, the higher the quality of the elixir, the better the effect and the higher the price. Let’s not talk about ordinary elixirs. The difference is not very obvious. Those high-value elixirs, such as foundation-building elixirs, are of higher quality and can greatly increase the chance of breakthrough.

Thirdly, it is about the time used. For the same elixir formation rate and the same elixir quality, of course, the shorter the time used, the better the elixir will be. A few years ago, Lu Yuan and Xia Meng competed in alchemy, but they were delayed a little bit and finally lost at this point. This is why he has always been unconvinced.

The Alchemy King Meeting also has a time limit. It is impossible to allow participants to waste time, so a burning incense will appear in each aperture. When the burning of incense is over, and the participants have not finished refining the elixir, it means they have passed the level. If you fail, you will be sent out directly by the Danwang Palace.

In addition to the holding charm and incense burner, there is also an elixir recipe on the platform. This is the first level of the competition question. Within the specified time, use ten materials to refine three elixirs.

What is recorded on the elixir recipe is the refining method and steps of the Yangyuan Dan, but it is slightly different from what is recorded on the True Explanation of Yuan Dan. It should have been changed by Thousand Hands Dan King, which is equivalent to a brand new elixir recipe. For many alchemists who are not good enough, they cannot practice the normal Yangyuan Pill, let alone this modified pill recipe. However, for senior foundation-building alchemy masters like Qingyang, who have practiced countless Yangyuan elixirs and tried many elixirs of the same level, these small changes are not difficult for them, as long as they put a little thought into it. , almost all pass.

Seeing that there was still plenty of time, Qingyang did not start refining the elixir immediately. Instead, he turned to look at the other contestants. Knowing himself and his opponent, he could win a hundred battles, and he did not know the level of other opponents.

Others had different reactions after entering the aperture. Some had relaxed expressions, some had solemn expressions, some had confident faces, as if they had no trouble getting through the test, some had furrowed brows, not knowing where to start, and some had ugly faces. To the extreme, it's as if his father is dead.

The best performers were Lu Yuan, Xia Meng, Murong Lian, Duanmu Fei, and a fourth-level foundation-building monk from the Ximen family wearing a bamboo hat. At this time, he had already thoroughly understood the one-sided card, counted the materials in the talisman, and began to prepare for the alchemy in an orderly manner.

Needless to say, Lu Yuan and Xia Meng were born on Blue Jade Island and were originally excellent foundation-building alchemy masters. This improved Yangyuan Pill could not stop them; Murong Lian was one of the second generation disciples of Wucheng Island. Duanmu Fei's alchemy masters will not be lower than Duan Mu Song in the future. Under the training of two alchemy masters, Duan Mu Song and Qing Yang, Duan Mu Fei's alchemy skills have improved by leaps and bounds in recent years.

Only the monk on the fourth floor of Ximen Family's Foundation Building wearing a bamboo hat made everyone a little confused. This person had always kept a low profile before, as if he were a servant of the Ximen family. When others asked, Ximen Ying was also vague, so no one paid attention. Now that I think about it, this person is probably the Ximen family's trump card. He originally planned to make a splash at the Alchemy King Conference, but due to the sudden appearance of Lu Yuan and Xia Meng, this person was ignored by everyone.

The ones who performed more generally were Baili Bo, Baili Zhong, Ximen Ying, Nangong Chi, Murong Zhu and others. These people were the main figures and backbones of each family. This was not the first time for these people to participate in the Alchemy King Meeting. They generally have limited qualifications, insufficient talent, and are not particularly confident in their alchemy skills, so their performance is not as calm as the previous ones.

However, these people have been cultivating immortality for a long time, and many of the years of studying alchemy are calculated in hundreds of years. Practice makes perfect, and every drop of water can penetrate the stone. After spending so much time on alchemy, no matter how dull the qualifications are, they will not be better than others. Too much difference.

They frowned and looked at the elixir prescription, closed their eyes and thought for a while. Although they felt that the things recorded in the elixir prescription were difficult, it was not impossible to pass. So they checked the materials in the talisman and thought carefully. How to refine this Yuan Yang Dan.

The worst performers are naturally those who participated in the Alchemy King Meeting for the first time, mainly Baili Qing, Murong Shu, Ximen Hu, Nangong Rui, Duan Mulin and others. These people are young, have low cultivation level, and have poor alchemy skills. Not to mention, the main purpose of coming here this time is to feel the atmosphere and gain insights. Each family does not think they can achieve anything, let alone get the inheritance of the Alchemy King.

Among them, Duan Mulin is the youngest one and has the lowest strength. However, he has been carefully trained by Qingyang and Duanmu Song over the years, coupled with Duan Mulin's supervision, his alchemy skills have also improved a lot. Among the younger generation, the alchemy skills have improved a lot. Although it's not the best, it's still at the top.

After looking around, Qingyang found that those who were qualified to compete for the inheritance of the Alchemy King were mainly those in the first echelon. The most threatening ones were Lu Yuan, Xia Meng and the monk in the Ximen family, and the rest Even if those people can barely pass the first level, they will stop at the second level.

But it's useless to think about it now. Whether you can get the inheritance of the Alchemy King in the end depends on your own strength. Now everything is unknown. If you fail the test, it will be in vain.

After observing for a while, Qingyang quickly put his mind back, picked up the elixir on the platform, and tasted it carefully. The elixir had not been changed much, except that several ingredients to neutralize the medicinal properties were added to the original one. , which can make the medicinal properties of the refined Yuan Yang Dan more peaceful.

When an alchemist reaches a certain level, he can change the alchemy formula, or even create a new alchemy formula out of thin air. Of course, this requires extremely high alchemy skills. By simply changing a few of the ingredients, Thousand-Hand Pill King can make the medicinal properties of the Yangyuan Pill more gentle and more suitable for monks to take. From this point of view, Thousand-Hand Pill King is worthy of being a great master.

Although Qingyang is very talented in alchemy, he has not achieved much in this area. He is still in the stage of copying the gourd and drawing the scoop, and does not have the ability to significantly change the alchemy recipe.
