After returning to the courtyard, Chen Yu lay on a wicker chair under the eaves, basking in the sun while recalling what Hu Runzhi had just said.
World Mountain and ancient ruins created the Wuliang Sword Sect among the six major sects.
The Xuanling Realm is a small realm. Generally, after monks at the peak of the Golden Core realm advance to the Nascent Soul Realm, they will choose to break through the space barrier and go to a wider realm.
Therefore, Chen Yu guessed that World Mountain should be left behind by Yuanying realm monks, but he did not rule out other possibilities.
Chen Yu is bound to get the Nine Spirit Sect's Mysterious Spirit Grass, and together with the ones he got on Earth before, he has a total of two plants in his hand.
Now that Hu Runzhi got one in World Mountain, will there be another one?!
At present, Chen Yu is in the late stage of the Golden Elixir. He wants to use the nine herbs of the Jiuling Sect to refine the elixir and advance to the peak of the Golden Elixir.
After that, he will spend some time to stabilize his realm, and then use Xuanling Jicao to refine the top elixir for advancing to the Nascent Soul realm.
However, there is still one missing Xuanling Jicao. What Chen Yu is now sure of is that the last one is also in the Xuanling Realm.
Of course, Chen Yu could also choose to swallow the ancient beast eggs in his hand to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, but that would be too much of a waste of natural resources.
Playing with the ancient cauldron in his hand, Chen Yu murmured: "If something goes wrong here, let's go take a look at the ancient ruins."
…
At noon, on a suspended square on Jiuling Island, disciples of the Jiuling Sect had already set up a glorious guard of honor.
Earlier, Zhou Feng, the second elder of the Jiuling Sect, had registered all the alchemists participating in the Medicine Immortal Competition and distributed identity cards.
Chen Yu didn't waste any time and turned to the rainbow, which was suspended in the square.
The square covers a large area and is guarded by Jiuling Sect disciples on all sides. In front of rows of futons, there are alchemy furnaces of the same quality prepared by the great elder Wang Jie, and medicinal materials of similar vintages are placed on long tables.
Since this Medicine Immortal Competition was planned by the Great Elder Wang Jie, Zhang Chu's identity was very important. He became the leader and led Chen Yu to a long table.
On the long table, Chen Yu's name is engraved, written in a dragon-snake style, which is quite elegant.
Zhang Chu had already met Chen Yu twice. It was hard to imagine that this casual cultivator who looked younger than himself would become Hu Runzhi's guest. He respectfully said: "Chen Xianchang, please wait a moment. The Medicine Fairy Competition will begin soon."
.”
"Okay!" Chen Yu nodded indifferently, sat cross-legged on the futon, closed his eyes and rested.
In less than a stick of incense, almost a hundred alchemists had all arrived. They were all acquaintances and chatting happily with each other. There were also some, like Chen Yu, who were taciturn and looked cold and distant from others.
In front of the square, Jiuling Sect leader Hu Runzhi, First Elder Wang Jie, Second Elder Zhou Feng, several other elders, and many guests from famous sects were already seated.
Taking two steps forward, Hu Runzhi coughed twice and said: "The rules of the Medicine Fairy Competition are very simple. The alchemy furnaces prepared by Jiu Ling for the 117 alchemists are exactly the same, including the medicinal materials, but the years are completely different.
No more than one year.”
"You all need to refine a furnace of Yangchun Pills. Whoever has the best grade will be the leader of this Medicine Immortal Competition and will receive the honorific title of 'Medicine Immortal' recognized by our Jiuling Sect and the entire Xuanling World.
"
"Finally, the person who gets the title of 'Medicine Immortal' will receive a Mysterious Spirit Grass as a gift from our Nine Spirits Sect."
Hu Runzhi finished speaking, but the one hundred and seventeen alchemists behaved extremely calmly, because too many people knew what the reward was this time.
"Everyone, you can prepare the hot stove!" Hu Runzhi nodded at Zhang Chu and then sat on the bench.
Zhang Chu stepped forward and said in a long voice: "I will give each of you seniors time to warm up the incense stick. When the time is up, follow my instructions and start refining the elixir."
"Seniors, please remember that the alchemy time is only ten minutes. Once the ten minutes are over, I will stop. If anyone continues to violate the rules, they will be deprived of the right to participate in this Medicine Fairy Competition and will be expelled from Jiuling Island."
Hot furnace is a word in the alchemy world. Just like you need hot water before boiling, you also need to heat up the alchemy furnace before making alchemy.
As for Yangchun Dan, it is a mid-level healing elixir that most alchemists can refine. Of course, there are differences in quality and refining time.
A cluster of flames burst out from his fingertips. Chen Yu flicked his finger, and the flames jumped into the alchemy furnace and burned fiercely.
Taking advantage of the hot stove time, Chen Yu raised his head and glanced in a certain direction.
There was an alchemy furnace, a long table, medicinal herbs, and a futon, but no one there. It was the place arranged by the Jiuling Sect for Gong Kui, the second elder of the Tiandao Sect.
Unfortunately, this unlucky guy has had his head cut off by Chen Yu and has no chance to participate in the Medicine Fairy Competition.
…
The time of a stick of incense passed quickly. The walls of the one hundred and seventeen alchemy furnaces were red. In the suspended square, heat waves were billowing, but there were formations to suppress them, so even people with low cultivation levels could not detect the burning.
feel.
"Everyone!" In front of everyone, Zhang Chu pulled out the ancient sword from his waist and raised it high.
"Start!" There was a sound, the ancient sword swung down, and the ten-minute countdown began.
The one hundred and seventeen alchemists present, all with solemn expressions, began to put the dozen or so herbs on the long table into the alchemy furnace one by one according to their weight.
However, Rogge and Fang Zizai kept their eyes on Chen Yu from time to time. There was a long distance between Chen Yu and the two of them, but they could see each other clearly.
Chen Yu's alchemy process was very smooth. Every time he put in a medicinal herb, Chen Yu did not hesitate at all, just like a doctoral student on earth calculating a simple arithmetic problem of how much one plus one equals.
This casual cultivator is really terrifying! Rogge and Fang Zizai looked at each other, with joy in their eyes.
Fortunately, they reached a deal with Wang Jie in advance, otherwise the Xuanling Jicao would never belong to them.
This also made Rogge and Fang Zizai increasingly suspicious. Is Chen Yu really a rogue cultivator as he said?
The two of them didn't want to believe it. For a small casual cultivator, his combat prowess was just unparalleled. Why was his alchemy attainment so terrifying?
Soon, five minutes passed, and Chen Yu was ready to finish. High-level elixirs were nothing but child's play for him, let alone a furnace of Yangchun elixirs that couldn't be easily used?
Suddenly, Chen Yu's expression changed, and a crack appeared in the wall of the alchemy furnace that was so close at hand.
There were more and more cracks in the crackling sound, but in just one breath, they were already as dense as a spider web.
"Boom!" A loud sound of earth shattering suddenly sounded in the suspended square.
On the bench, Hu Runzhi was the first to react. He immediately stood up and looked in the direction of Chen Yu.yyls
The next moment, everyone stood up with shocked faces. All the monks present felt that a destructive energy was brewing and was about to explode. It was very terrifying.
