Most of the monks in the city gathered here because today is the day when the Zi, Yuan and Lin tribes will compete in martial arts.
To the west of the square, on the Zi family side, Zi Fu, Zi Yuan, Zi Chongxiao, Chen Qi, Lu Chen and other principals of the Zi family were sitting at the banquet, drinking tea and chatting.
To the east and south of the square are people from the Yuan family and the Lin family.
"The martial arts competition between the three tribes has begun. The first round is an alchemy competition. Please invite representatives of the three tribes to come on stage."
In the middle of the square, there is a thousand feet of space, with a high platform in the middle. In front of it are three old men, who are the elders of the three tribes. They will preside over the martial arts competition to show fairness.
"Father, my daughter is gone." Ziyuan stood up, saluted her father, glanced at Lu Chen, and walked out with a confident smile on her baby face.
"Ziyuan, come on." Chen Qi said loudly.
Zi Chongxiao also nodded to his sister to show encouragement.
Ziyuan became more confident, held her head high and walked towards the center of the square.
At the same time, two young men came out of the Yun family and the Lin family respectively. One was tall and imposing, dressed in blue; the other was of medium build and slightly dark complexion, giving people a simple yet shrewd look.
"Father, the man in blue seems to be Zhao Hai from Tianqing Sect, and the other is Song Ze, a disciple of Canghai Sword Sect." Zi Chongxiao saw the young man in blue among them and said to his father in surprise.
"It's the two of them?" Zi's father was also surprised and said, "I heard that Zhao Hai is the best elixir master in the outer sect of Tianqing Sect. He was already a third-grade elixir master a few years ago. As for Song
Ze also became a third-grade elixir master last year, and his strength is not low.'
"Uncle, don't worry, with Junior Sister Ziyuan's alchemy skills, we will definitely be able to defeat them." Chen Qi said with a smile.
"I hope so." Zi's father and Zi Chongxiao looked at each other and frowned slightly. After all, Zhao Hai and Song Ze were famous. The Yuanlin family invited them here, and it seemed that they were determined to win. Can Ziyuan really defeat them?
Lu Chen was calm, not to mention that he had never heard of the names of Zhao Hai and Song Ze. However, they were able to become third-grade elixir masters at such a young age. They were undoubtedly more powerful than Luo Feng, unless Zi Yuan's alchemy skills were high.
His skills are much better than theirs, otherwise it would be difficult to win.
"This elixir refining competition will be based on refining the third-grade elixir, the Destiny Pill, and will be judged based on the finished product and elixir pattern. Let's start refining the elixir now."
At the same time, the elders of the three tribes have announced the start of the alchemy competition.
"Whoa!"
Zhao Hai and Song Ze took out the alchemy furnaces respectively, and they turned out to be third-grade immortal furnaces. Obviously, they came prepared.
Moreover, they were calm, composed, and looked like they were familiar with the road. They took the elixir prepared by the three tribes and began to refine the elixir.
"Fire Phoenix Cauldron, come out."
At the same time, Ziyuan also took out an alchemy cauldron, shaped like a fire phoenix, fiery red in color, and emitting a hot aura.
"Fourth-grade Immortal Cauldron?"
Lu Chen was surprised.
"A country bumpkin who has never seen the world."
Chen Qi's eyes showed disdain, looking down on Lu Chen very much.
Lu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at him.
Chen Qi suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and he was trembling all over. He looked at Lu Chen with sweat on his forehead, looking frightened, and quickly looked away in fear.
Lu Chen raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth and continued to observe Ziyuan and the others refining the Destiny Pill.
Zi's father and Zi Chongxiao's father and son looked at each other, and they were even more resistant to Chen Qi. They didn't know whether it was right or wrong to let him represent the Zi family in the martial arts competition?
But now, they have no choice. The plan for now is to hope that Ziyuan can win.
"Strange fire?"
At this moment, monks from all directions suddenly shouted, and everyone looked at Ziyuan in surprise. They saw the woman spreading her white and tender palms, and a ball of blue flame emerged.
This fire was bright blue, but it exuded a bone-chilling aura, and the air seemed to be frozen by it.
"Blue Ice Fire?"
Zhao Hai and Song Ze both looked shocked at the same time.
"Blue Ice Fire?"
At the same time, Lu Chen also saw this scene and was slightly surprised. He didn't expect Ziyuan to have the blue ice fire. No wonder he was so proud.
You must know that the blue ice fire is one of the strange fires of heaven and earth. It was born under the iceberg for millions of years and was formed by the strong power of ice flames. It is extremely terrifying.
Ziyuan was able to obtain this fire, so she obviously had a great opportunity.
"I didn't expect Ziyuan to have blue ice fire. It seems that I will definitely win this alchemy competition." Zi's father said happily.
"Uncle, the outcome of this alchemy competition has been decided." Chen Qi said with a smile.
"Brother Lu, you don't seem to be optimistic about Ziyuan?" Zi Chongxiao smiled and nodded, but found Lu Chen frowning slightly and asked in confusion.
"The blue ice fire is one of the strange fires in the world. With the help of Ziyuan, the success rate of alchemy can indeed be increased a lot." Lu Chen said.
"You are quite discerning." Chen Qi said with a smile.
"However, using this fire requires strong immortal power as support, and it is also a test of soul power. Ziyuan seems to have just broken through to the heavenly realm." Lu Chen glanced at Chen Qi, ignored him, and continued. After finishing speaking,
He said no more. With the wisdom of Zifu and Zi Chongxiao, they believed they could understand what he meant.
Zi's father and Zi Chongxiao frowned slightly after hearing this.
"Lu Chen, don't talk nonsense, I think you are jealous of Junior Sister Ziyuan's possession of the Blue Ice Fire." Chen Qi snorted.
"You know it in your heart, don't you?" Lu Chen said coldly.
"You..." Chen Qi looked angry when he heard this, but when he thought of his defeat to Lu Chen and his previous experience, he opened his mouth, snorted coldly, and said no more.
Lu Chen said no more and closed his eyes to rest.
He knew very well how to refine the Destiny Pill, and such an elixir-making competition really didn't interest him.
"Uncle, don't worry, Junior Sister Ziyuan will definitely win." Chen Qi glanced at Lu Chen unconvinced, then turned to Zi's father.
"Chongxiao, how much do you know about Lu Chen's alchemy skills?" Zi's father nodded and secretly asked Zi Chongxiao quietly.
"Father, Brother Lu's alchemy skills are unparalleled, especially in refining the Destiny Pill. He is extremely skilled. I still have a Destiny Pill in my child's hand that he gave me as a gift." Zi Chongxiao said.
"He actually gave you a Destiny Pill as a gift?" Zi's father asked in surprise. He looked at Lu Chen who closed his eyes to rest, and felt a little unbelievable. The Destiny Pill was so precious that he actually gave it to his son.
"Father, Brother Lu is very affectionate and righteous, and he is a trustworthy person. It is definitely prudent for the child to ask him to help him participate in the alchemy competition," Zi Chongxiao said.
"I hope Ziyuan can defeat them." After hearing this, Zi's father did not continue, but looked at Ziyuan who was refining the Destiny Pill.
At this time, she had put the spirit tobacco, thunder cloud fruit, and fire flower into the immortal cauldron and started to refine it with the fire of blue ice.
On the other side, Zhao Hai and Song Ze also started refining the Destiny Pill in an orderly manner.
Everyone watched quietly.
Two hours later.
"Turn on the furnace!"
Song Ze suddenly roared, the sound was like thunder on the ground, he rolled his palms, and the fairy light was raging. He opened the top cover of the alchemy furnace, and suddenly the glow of the sun shone. Swish, swish, and pills flew out one after another, no more, no less, just right.
Six pieces.
"good!"
Song Ze was overjoyed.
Everyone also showed excitement, but at this moment, two of the Destiny Pills suddenly made a soft sound, turned into a wisp of blue smoke, and disappeared.
"Oh, there are two useless pills."
"Only two, the other four are intact."
"Yes, four destiny pills are already pretty good."
Everyone was talking about it. Although they were a little disappointed, they also felt that Song Ze's alchemy skills were very powerful. Everyone in the Lin family also smiled.
The Yuan family and the Zi family frowned slightly, because neither Zhao Hai nor Ziyuan showed any signs of opening the alchemy furnace. Especially Ziyuan, whose face was red and her forehead was dripping with sweat. She had already taken two elixirs to replenish her immortal power. Obviously,
As Chase Lu expected, after she used Bing Lan, she needed to consume a lot of fairy power.
Zi's father and Zi Chongxiao's father and son both became nervous. Chen Qi next to him didn't say anything and kept wiping his sweat. He seemed even more nervous than Zi Yuan.
"open!"
At this moment, Zhao Hai suddenly shouted loudly, the sound was like the sound of bells and drums, the immortal power surged, the fragrance overflowed, and when the pill furnace was opened, six pills of destiny flew out one after another.
Puff puff!
Three of the Destiny Pills suddenly cracked and became useless pills.
"What?"
Everyone was shocked when they saw this, and the Yuan family changed their expressions. One of the young men said with a smile: "Although Brother Zhao refined three destiny pills, one of them has pill patterns. Based on this alone, he
Slightly better than Song Ze." He is the young master of the Yuan family, Yuan Fu.
"Not bad."
Everyone nodded after hearing this.
Everyone in the Lin family looked a bit ugly. Song Ze's expression darkened. Compared with Zhao Hai, he lost the alchemy competition.
"Hahaha, it seems that I won this alchemy competition." Zhao Hai laughed.
"Zhao Hai, have you forgotten that there is another person?" Song Ze said coldly.
"Are you talking about her? She's probably even worse than you." Zhao Hai pointed at Ziyuan and laughed.
"What?" Song Ze looked at Ziyuan, his expression immediately changed, and he saw that Ziyuan's baby face was extremely pale, her whole body was dripping with sweat, and her delicate body was trembling faintly.
"not good!"
Zifu and Zi Chongxiao both lost their luster.
"How could this happen?" Chen Qi asked in astonishment.
"Uncle Zi, Ziyuan's immortal power is not enough, please tell her to stop refining alchemy immediately, otherwise there will be a danger of exploding the furnace and causing her to be injured." Lu Chen suddenly opened his eyes and said.
"No!" Chen Qi shouted and said to Zi's father, 'Uncle, this Lu Chen is making alarmist remarks. Don't listen to him.'
"This..." Zi's father looked at Ziyuan and hesitated for a while.
"Brother Lu, is this true?" Zi Chongxiao asked hurriedly. He believed Lu Chen very much.
"Stop her quickly." Lu Chen shook his head and said.
"Father, please stop Ziyuan quickly. Brother Lu is proficient in the art of alchemy and will not make mistakes." Zi Chongxiao said urgently.
"But..., well, okay." Zi's father sighed.
Bang——
But just when he was about to stop Ziyuan from continuing to refine alchemy, a bang suddenly came from the direction of Ziyuan, and a golden air flow swept out, directly flying Ziyuan out, and spitting out a mouthful of blood while she was still in mid-air.
"Aster?"
Zi's father was shocked. He jumped out with a scroll of fairy light, used his powerful hands to support Ziyuan, and hurriedly gave her the elixir.
"Father, my daughter lost." Ziyuan coughed, opened her eyes with difficulty, and looked at Zi's father with a guilty look on her face.
