Fellow Taoist: Do you have any spiritual stones on you?

After Gu Feng and Yan Xixi left Fengyuntai, they went straight to the Outer Gate Exchange.

"Senior Brother Gu, come here to buy medicinal materials!"

"Ok!"

"Come on, Senior Brother Gu, if you come up with another laxative pill, I will be the first to patronize your business."

"I really miss the feeling of diarrhea. During that time, my realm soared and I was full of strength all day long. But Brother Gu, you won't sell it anymore."

"When will Senior Brother Gu refine some Bone-Cleaning Pills again? Currently, there is still a shortage of Bone-Cleaning Pills in the outer sect. The elders in the Outer Sect Medicine Refining Hall are not as productive as Senior Brother Gu in refining pills."

"Oh——, if only I still had the Bone-Xian Dan, I would have the hope of breaking through the Qi-Entraining Realm before the outer competition!"

"..."

Gu Feng was a well-known figure in the outer sect of the Luoxia Sect, and he was supportive of his participation in the Yun County Alchemy Conference.

Of course, no one thought he could win the first place. They only hoped that Gu Feng would pass this alchemy conference and come up with another laxative pill that would benefit the outer sect, so that they could once again feel the refreshing feeling of ascension.

Gu Feng gradually lost himself in the praises of everyone. During the whole process of purchasing the medicinal materials, his chest was raised high and the corners of his mouth were grinned down to his back molars.

I was a little worried at first, but now I am full of confidence.

"Don't worry Xixi, I am now a strong man in the acquired realm. My physical indicators are more than ten times stronger than before, and my alchemy skills must have also improved by leaps and bounds." Gu Feng said proudly to Yan Xixi.

"You are a genius in alchemy. When you were in the Qi Enlightenment state, you developed the bone-slaying elixir that was famous in the Luoxia Sect's outer sect. Even the elders of the outer sect's medicine refining hall were full of praise for you..." Yan Xixi's eyes were as curved as the moon, and she said with a smile.

"That's right, I just spent all my energy on practicing and making money. A small matter like refining alchemy can be overcome with just a little effort!" Gu Feng was completely distracted and had long forgotten that he had been trained by the outer sect before. Elder Shen, the chief of the Medicine Hall, looked embarrassed as he drove out of the Medicine Refining Hall.

The two of them went straight to the alchemy room.

"Xixi, tell me the main process of this alchemy conference."

"There's not much of a process. It's just gathering the Qi-entraining realm alchemists from various sects, aristocratic families, and chambers of commerce to compete in alchemy techniques. As for the process..."

Yan Xixi briefly described the process of the alchemy conference.

Gu Feng understood everything after listening to the beginning.

The competition content of the alchemy conference is the same every year. As the organizer of the conference, the Luoxia Sect prepares corresponding medicinal materials and allows each alchemist to refine an elixir called 'Qi Gathering Pill'.

This elixir has similarities with the Bone Cleansing Pill. They are the best, most difficult to refine, and rarest elixirs in each realm. Unlike the Bone Cleansing Pill, which is only popular in the Luoxia Sect, the Qi Gathering Pill is popular throughout the Chu Kingdom. , is recognized as the number one elixir in the Qi-entraining realm of Chu State.

The price is also very exaggerated. A bottle of nine can fetch an astonishing [-] low-grade spiritual stones, and demand exceeds supply.

The original intention of the alchemy conference to refine this elixir was to discover talents for refining the 'Qi Gathering Pill'. The more important reason was to see if there was any talented alchemist who could break through the technical barriers of alchemy and improve the elixir. Party, benefiting the public.

Because the refining of the 'Qi Gathering Pill' was too difficult, there were many ugly scenes of the entire alchemy conference exploding all the furnaces. Therefore, starting from that time, the alchemy conference changed the competition method, allowing participating alchemists to invite a Alchemists with the highest cultivation level in the Houtian realm participated in the competition together, and were finally ranked based on the combined results of the two.

"Then if a really trashy Qi-entraining realm alchemist invites a powerful Houtian realm alchemist, wouldn't there be a high chance of winning the championship?" Gu Feng asked.

Yan Xixi seemed to have known that Gu Feng had this question for a long time, and said with a smile: "This situation will basically never happen. Alchemists are divided into ordinary products, spiritual products, mysterious products, etc.

No matter how difficult it is to refine the Qi Gathering Pill, it will always be within the category of ordinary level. A spiritual alchemist will be bored if he wins, and will be laughed at if he loses. If they are all ordinary alchemists, their level will be meaningless. It’s not a competition of combat power! "

Oh!

After saying this, Gu Feng understood, and it gave him more confidence to participate in the alchemy conference. Everyone was an ordinary alchemist, and he did not feel that he was inferior to anyone else.

In fact, Gu Feng still thought highly of himself. Ordinary alchemists also need to go to the outer medicine refining hall or the Alchemist Guild for assessment. After refining specific elixirs and reaching a certain quality, they can pass.

Considering that Gu Feng can only refine fake and shoddy products, there is a high probability that he will fail the test.

'Qi Gathering Pill' is truly recognized as the number one elixir in the Qi Entraining Realm by the Chu State. There are more than [-] kinds of medicinal materials required for elixir refining alone. The fire control requirements are extremely high. Even with Gu Feng's knowledge, I also feel my head hurts. The refining time is not long, the shortest is five hours and the longest is eight hours.

At this point, I have to mention another major feature of the Qi Gathering Pill. The refining time is directly proportional to the grade of the pill. Often experienced alchemists can roughly distinguish the quality of the pill from the time required for refining it. Alchemist level.

"Xixi, can you refine the 'Qi Gathering Pill'?"

"Three out of ten furnaces can be successful. The probability is not high." Yan Xixi said in a low voice.

"Thirty percent success rate? What level does this rank among the ordinary outer sect alchemists?" Gu Feng considered his words and asked cautiously, for fear of hurting Yan Xixi's self-esteem.

"It should be at a level that no one can compare to!" Yan Xixi's eyes showed cunningly as she spoke.

"puff--"

Gu Feng was so shocked by these words that he vomited blood and tapped Yan Xixi's head. This little girl was playing tricks on him.

"I'll try!"

Gu Feng was a little eager to try. The [-]% success rate was considered to be the top level among the Luoxia Sect's ordinary alchemists. This undoubtedly gave him great confidence.

You know, when he was refining the Bone-Xian Dan, his success rate was astonishingly [-]%, and there was never a furnace explosion!

"boom--"

"boom--"

From then on, for several days in a row, there would be rumbling sounds from the alchemy room, flames blazing into the sky, and thick smoke billowing. Gu Feng and Yan Xixi turned into two black babies.

"It's too difficult. I can't even reach the step of condensing the pill!"

Gu Feng lay on his back and wailed loudly. He had refined no less than two hundred furnaces in the past few days, and all of them exploded. His condition directly affected Yan Xixi. Whenever the two of them refined elixirs at the same time, they had never succeeded.

"Didn't you say you have a [-]% success rate?"

"I don't know what's going on, I just keep blowing up the furnace!" Yan Xixi was also extremely speechless. She originally wanted to show off her skills in front of Gu Feng, but this is the result. Fortunately, she was turned into a black baby at the moment and couldn't see it. A blush of shame on the face.

"I'll study the recipe for the 'Qi Gathering Pill' first and see if I can improve it. You can practice it first!"

Gu Feng leaned against the wall, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to study the Qi Gathering Pill.

Regular elixirs will no longer work. With Yan Xixi's level, the probability of winning the first place on her own is too small. There is only one way at the moment, and that is to take a deviant approach, just like the bone-slaying elixir. Come up with a castrated version of Qi Gathering Pill, at least there is a possibility of becoming a pill, and it won't be too embarrassing to lose.

Unknowingly, after the fifth and fourth floors passed, Gu Feng felt that his eyes were filled with light. When he raised his eyes, he immediately stayed there.

"Xixi? Have you successfully refined it?"

"Yes! It worked!" Yan Xixi directly refined three Qi Gathering Pills this time, each with seven runes.

"Is this a top-grade Fan Dan?" Gu Feng exclaimed.

The classification of elixirs and weapons is the same, with nine runes as the limit for ordinary products. The Qi Gathering Pill with seven runes in front of you has already entered the category of high-grade mortal elixirs.

"Okay, we finally succeeded." After being excited, Gu Feng asked a pointed question, "It's just that the current situation is very bad, your success rate is not high, my success rate is directly 0, I'm afraid I will be at the bottom!"

"It's okay, the important thing is to participate, not to pursue rankings!" Yan Xixi's eyes were burning, as if she didn't care.

"No, I have to get first place. I don't want to be called by your sister again: a boy who only knows how to refine Lathi Pills!" Gu Feng stood up suddenly and said solemnly: "I have already conducted in-depth research on Qi Gathering Pills. The improved elixir takes a shorter refining time, and although its efficacy is somewhat weakened, as long as it can be made into a batch of nine pills, and there are no side effects when taken, I believe the score will not be low!"
