Chapter 0260 Crazy growth, Hua Tuo is ecstatic (first update)
Ren Cangqiong was silent for a moment, but suddenly asked: "By the way, brother Hua Tuo, how many Medicine King-level masters are there in this competition?"
"Two, I have paid attention to this matter. The Thunder Sword Elder of the Sun-Chasing Sword Alliance and the Qingshu Elder of Xingyue Valley. These two medicine king-level experts are the favorites to win the championship in this Alchemy Master Association."
"Oh? In your estimation, how many sections of Qingling Bamboo can they cultivate?" Ren Cangqiong asked thoughtfully.
"The eight knots are for sure. I estimate that they may even be able to cultivate the nine knots Qingling Bamboo." Minghua Tuo sighed, "If they can cultivate the nine knots Qingling Bamboo within two months, I'm afraid there are only one in Baicaotang.
Can the three ancestors do it?"
Ming Huatuo sighed and felt helpless in his heart. The Alchemy Master Association would send such a powerful elder to compete, which was extremely unfair to other contestants. However, he had good talent and high level, but who could
Facts that cannot be changed.
"Nine festivals?" Ren Cangqiong nodded, "If they are only nine festivals, then in the first step, perhaps Elder Hua Tuo, the big dark horse, will be the one to win."
Minghua Tuo almost fell to the ground without a fight. What do you mean by just nine knots? Isn't nine knots high enough?
The threshold from Section 7 to Section 8 is already very high and almost insurmountable. From Section 8 to Section 9, it is even more of a huge hurdle. It is basically impossible to surpass it without being a medicine king.
But when Ren Cangqiong said it, why did it become "just nine festivals"?
Jiujie is already enchanting and dazzling enough, even enough to win the first prize in the first stage, right? Ming Huatuo barely managed to calm down.
"Brother Qianqiong, could it be that your same-root spiritual irrigation method can cultivate more knots?" Minghua Tuo's breathing was completely unsmooth.
"As long as it is performed properly, ten knots can be guaranteed." Ren Cangqiong did not give in. Lord Wan Yao also mentioned after this secret method that if this secret method is performed by an average person, ten knots can be guaranteed. If it is Wan Yao, it can guarantee ten knots.
If you respect yourself, you may even reach the 15th or 16th section
This is the most heaven-defying inheritance secret method.
"Ten...Ten knots?" Minghua Tuo was speechless and almost choked on his own saliva. He calculated carefully in his mind, "Ten knots, that's a hundred points. If it's ten knots, you can definitely get it.
The champion of the first stage will be rewarded with thirty additional points. He can get one hundred and thirty points at once."
Thinking of this, Minghua Tuo's heartbeat accelerated again. His face turned red, he couldn't help rubbing his hands, and he was suddenly extremely excited.
"Ten knots, ten knots..."
Ren Cangqiong smiled and shook his head. Fortunately, he still spoke in a conservative direction. If he had told him that it was possible for twelve sections of Qingling Bamboo to emerge in two months, Ming Hua Tuo would have fainted on the spot.
If that's the case, I'm afraid it will become a laughing stock in the Alchemist Association.
The most critical part of cultivating elixirs is the first three days. Handling the seeds, conditioning the spiritual soil, and how to fertilize...this is a matter for everyone to show off their magic.
Ren Cangqiong doesn't want to get too involved in the hands-on matter. After all, this is a collaboration between two people, and Ming Hua Tuo is nominally the leader. Ming Hua Tuo must be allowed to do something, otherwise, he will take care of everything by himself.
, the presence of Ming Huatuo as a contestant will be almost zero.
Preparing the spiritual ingredients requires a day of processing the seeds, conditioning the soil, and then planting the seeds. In the first three days, Ming Hua Tuo did the work while Ren Cangqiong filled in the details. The cooperation between the two was remarkable.
They seemed to have a very tacit understanding and cooperated very skillfully.
After the first three days passed, all the contestants finally got through the first wave. They walked out of their respective spiritual formations and returned to their respective positions.
According to the rules, the first and second sessions will overlap. However, the second session will officially start seven days after the first session.
This is naturally to complete the four-step assessment within three months. After all, the cultivation of Qingling Bamboo requires a two-month cycle, and it also takes one to two months for the seeds of Gaoling Sixth Grade to sprout seedlings.
cycle.
Under the stimulation of the spiritual material, the Qingling Bamboo planted by Minghua Tuo sprouted its first buds. However, Ming Hua Tuo was very calm and remained calm when he returned to his seat.
After he was promoted to elder, he has been ostracized, and he has accumulated an explosive anger and suppressed resentment in his heart. He has endured it for so long, and he doesn't care to keep a low profile for a while.
He wanted to see what the expressions of these elders who looked down on him would look like when he won many first-level championships.
As a "follower", Ren Cangqiong was very disciplined and never ostracized Ming Hua Tuo's limelight when he was outside.
To the outside world, he was just a "follower". However, Elder Mu Tianya, who was sitting next to Minghua Tuo, always looked at Ren Cangqiong intentionally or unintentionally, and sometimes gave him a meaningful smile.
If Elder Mu Tianya was younger, Ming Huatuo would almost think that she was attracted to Ren Cangqiong.
On the third day, Minghua Tuo's Qingling Bamboo grew a second section. On the fifth day, it grew again and grew a third section. The bamboo sections were very long, very powerful and full of spiritual power.
This made Minghua Tuo see it in his eyes and feel happy in his heart. At first glance, he felt that this Qingling Bamboo had extraordinary qualities. The roots were strong and powerful, and the bamboo joints were slender. The green bamboo body was covered with a light green, making it delicate and tender.
On the seventh day, Ming Huatuo’s Qingling Bamboo successfully grew the fourth quarter.
Minghua Tuo felt so happy. The first seven days were the budding period of Qingling Bamboo, and his Qingling Bamboo had actually sprouted four knots.
Generally speaking, in a two-month cycle, the bamboo nodes of Qingling Bamboo will grow about three times the number of nodes in the first seven days.
In other words, according to the normal trend, his Qingling Bamboo may grow to twelve knots.
Ming Huatuo observed the Qingling Bamboo in the spiritual formation. The spiritual power was flowing up and down, and he felt that every pore in his body was singing happily.
Ming Huatuo could hardly help but want to sing loudly to vent his excitement at this moment. He had already seen the champion waving to him from afar.
It was the 12th session. When Ming Hua Tuo thought that this possibility would come true in two months, and that he, Ming Hua Tuo, would make a surprise move and win the championship in the first session, he could not help but tremble in his heart.
Miracle, this is definitely a miracle. And this miracle was created by Ren Cangqiong for him. Hua Tuo could no longer describe his gratitude to Ren Cangqiong in words.
Seven days later, the second round of the competition will begin.
Ming Hua Tuo returned to his seat, with some traces of the excitement on his expression. Mu Tianya seemed to be paying close attention to Ming Hua Tuo and Ren Cangqiong, and asked with a smile: "Elder Hua Tuo, in the past seven days, it was Qing Lingzhu
At the budding stage, the growth there should be okay, right?"
Minghua Tuo felt proud, his old face also bloomed with lotus flowers, and he said with a smile: "It's going relatively smoothly, where is Elder Tianya?"
Mu Tianya spread his hands: "I'm just average, I've only grown two quarters. I haven't seen any signs of growth in the third quarter."
Elder Shui Jing over there came over and said with a smile: "It is said that Elder Yanggong and Elder Wang Yang have already shown signs of success in the third quarter."
"Oh, then I really have to congratulate them." Mu Tianya said with a faint smile.
Wang Yang happened to return to the playing field from the spiritual formation at this time, his expression was very proud, he glanced at Ming Hua Tuo, and asked with a smile on his face: "Elder Hua Tuo, I don't know if your Qing Ling Bamboo can grow
No second quarter?”
Minghua Tuo was secretly amused. He thought to himself, Wang Yang, are you pretending to be cool with me? When the results come out, let’s see how ridiculous you are.
Ming Huatuo remained silent, which in Wang Yang's eyes turned into a sign of timidity. Wang Yang laughed and said, "This is normal. It is your first time to attend the Alchemist Association, so you will inevitably feel at a loss. Elder Hua Tuo said
Should I pay tuition?"
"Well, the tuition fee of fifty thousand spiritual stones is quite expensive." Minghua Tuo nodded seriously.
Wang Yang was stunned for a moment and wanted to say something else. The eyes of Patriarch Qinchuan on the stage were like sharp arrows shooting toward the Baicaotang competition area.
Wang Yang couldn't help but twitch all over, knowing that Patriarch Qinchuan was Minghua Tuo's backer. At this time, he was adding insult to injury, so he didn't want to get the reputation of internal strife.
He immediately returned to his seat and sat down.
The thirty-six contestants all returned to their seats. Patriarch Qinchuan glanced around Baicao Hall. Seeing that none of the six elders of Baicao Hall looked high-spirited, his heart suddenly sank. From this point of view,
In this first session, the six contestants from Baicaotang had no highlights.
Patriarch Qin Chuan felt a little uncomfortable. After all, he was the Patriarch of Baicaotang. Although he was a referee, he also hoped that the contestants in his sect would perform better.
On the other hand, looking at the contestants from other sects, there are some who are high-spirited, some who are looking forward to it, some who are unpredictable and even more confident, and all kinds of performances can be seen at a glance.
Although Patriarch Qinchuan cared about Baicaotang, he did not forget his responsibilities. He cleared his throat and said: "Everyone, according to the rules, seven days after the first session, the second session will start simultaneously. The cycle is also two months.
Here are 360 Gaoling six varieties of seeds, which you prepared yourself. Our six judges have collectively verified it, and there is no difference in qualifications. Now, all contestants are invited to come up for verification and receive their ten seeds.
.”
In the second stage, each participating alchemist will be assigned ten seeds of the six varieties of Gaoling. Within two months, the more seeds that survive, the better the result will be.
Verification is actually a procedure. In fact, it is absolutely impossible to make mistakes when it comes to seeds. After verification, all contestants received ten Gaoling Six varieties of seeds that they had prepared.
The seeds of the sixth-grade Gaoling are themselves valuable. Once they survive and become the sixth-grade elixir of Gaoling, their value will be increased by more than twenty or thirty times.
After receiving their respective seeds, the contestants returned to their seats.
Ancestor Qinchuan began to announce the rules for the second stage: "The cycle is also two months, and it is also in the spiritual array assigned to you. The points rules for this stage are as follows: for each surviving one, ten points will be obtained. Ranking
Calculated based on the number of survivors. Those with the largest number of survivors will be ranked first. In the case of the same number, the ranking will be determined based on the qualifications of the surviving seedlings. Similarly, the top three will have additional rewards. The reward rules are the same as those in the first link. The first place reward
Thirty extra points; second place will be awarded twenty extra points; third place will be awarded ten extra points."
The rules are very simple. If you survive a seedling, you can get ten points. This is the cumulative calculation. The rules of this link have not been announced yet, but Minghua Tuo's heartbeat is already accelerating. Because last time, Ren Cangqiong mentioned that he had
