This strange scene that suddenly appeared on the square was also a big surprise for Xiao Yan. Looking at the stunned looks directed at him, Xiao Yan had no choice but to shrug his shoulders. With a flick of his hand, the green flames appeared. After being thrown into the medicine cauldron, the flames on the hands of the contestants returned to normal.
"This guy..." She muttered in a low voice, and the little princess was a little depressed. She had never seen the tyranny of the alien fire with her own eyes, so she always thought that her "Dry Blue Water Flame" would not be much weaker than it, but she could Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance about the supernatural performance of his own flame that it was far inferior to the strange fire. Otherwise, there would not have been such a surrendered form.
Compared with the depression of the little princess, Liu Ling's face was slightly ugly. This brown flame was obtained from the body of a fifth-level magic beast that was comparable to a human fighting king after his teacher invited many strong people. , he didn’t expect that he had just performed it today, and before he had even made a big splash, he was bowing to someone else’s flame. This really made him speechless.
"Hmph, what's the use of a light flame? If you can't control it, you'll end up playing with fire and burning yourself." Yanli sneered in a low voice as he poured the black flame in his hand into the medicine cauldron.
In the square, as the strange scenes disappeared, all the contestants gradually returned their minds to the test questions they were about to face. They poured the flames in their hands into the medicine cauldron, then took out the medicinal materials from their respective rings and started. The first step in refining elixirs: refining!
Xiao Yan stared closely at the medicine cauldron, occasionally waving his palms to throw one or two medicinal plants on the stone platform into the medicine cauldron, then controlling the temperature of the flame, and slowly burning the medicine according to the information recorded on the prescription. Slowly refining the essence needed for refining the elixir.
Although he has an extremely precise prescription in his mind, Xiao Yan does not dare to be careless at all. There are only three ingredients prepared this time. No matter which ingredient is missing due to a mistake, it will seriously increase the failure rate of the refining. , this is absolutely intolerable to Xiao Yan, so even with his ability to control the Qinglian Earth Core Fire, he still does not dare to throw in all the medicinal materials in a swarm, but chooses to refine two plants at a time. This method of insurance for medicinal materials.
There are many people who share this idea with Xiao Yan, including the little princess, Liu Ling, and even Yan Li, who has always been arrogant and arrogant. At this moment, he is also carefully controlling the heat with a solemn face, carefully refining each of these plants. As for medicinal materials, everyone knows how heartbreaking it will be to lose a medicinal plant at this moment.
In the huge square, all the contestants remained silent. Only the crackling sound of the flames refining the medicinal materials echoed in the square.
Under the influence of this quiet atmosphere, the seats on both sides that originally seemed a little noisy gradually became quieter, and all eyes were wandering on the alchemists in the square below.
"Sure enough, they all keep their skills. These young people now..." Nalan Jie looked at the flames rising from the square below at the VIP table and couldn't help but smile: "But look at that kind of thing just now What a strange scene, but the strange fire of little friend Yan Xiao is even better."
"The strange fire is a rare item that even the ancient elders have never owned. The energy is naturally far beyond the flames that the little princess and others obtained from the monsters." Nalan Yanran on the side said with a smile.
"Haha, yes." Nodding, Nalan Jie suddenly turned to Nalan Yanran, frowned and said, "Did the person who came from Yunlan Sect this morning urge you to go back?"
"Yeah." Nalan Yanran nodded slightly.
"Alas..." Nalan Jie sighed softly, his voice a little low: "Is it because the three-year appointment has arrived?"
Hearing this, Nalan Yanran's bare hands that were about to remove the black hair from her forehead froze slightly, pursed her red lips, and said softly: "It must be for some reason..."
"Xiao Yan has disappeared for nearly two years. I also told you that when he left Wutan City, he had already condensed the cyclone and became a fighter, and this... it was only less than a year.
At that time, you should also know how difficult it was to improve the fighting spirit during the period before the fighter, but he rose again like lightning in less than a year. This means that,
His cultivation talent that disappeared mysteriously back then has been restored..." Nalan Jie took a long breath and said in a deep voice: "In the past two years, there is no information about him, but I think, according to his cultivation talent
, I’m afraid it’s at least the Dou Master level..."
Nalan Yanran nodded.
"Well, I don't want to say anything more. You won't listen if I tell you. But I hope that no matter who wins or loses this three-year contract, you can apologize to him." Nalan Jie rubbed his tongue.
He rubbed his forehead and said a little tiredly.
"Apologise?" Hearing this, Nalan Yanran frowned slightly, and then stared at Nalan Jie stubbornly: "I'm not wrong! Why do you have to apologize?"
"You could obviously go to the Xiao family privately and ask Xiao Zhan if you can cancel the engagement, and you might not have done anything like this, but you have to rely on the power of the Yunlan Sect to forcefully oppress the Xiao family.
Breaking off the engagement, you actually know how much damage it has done to the reputation of the Xiao family, but in recent years, because your status has become more and more prominent, you are unwilling or unwilling to apologize..." Nalan Jie looked faintly.
Looking at his granddaughter, he said: "But you know, if this continues, it will only deepen the gap between Xiao Yan and you."
"No matter how deep the gap is, it is impossible for him and I to be together. Since it is impossible, it doesn't matter how deep the gap is." Nalan Yanran frowned slightly, waved her hand to stop Nalan Jie, and said softly: "Grandpa
, don’t worry about my affairs. Anyway, after this three-year appointment, he and I will never have anything to do with each other again. It’s not like no one wants your granddaughter, so why do you always miss him? Okay,
Don’t say anything and just watch the game with peace of mind.”
After saying that, Nalan Yanran turned her head and cast her gaze towards the square, a faint vindictiveness covering her ears, obviously she didn't want to listen to Nalan Jie's nagging anymore.
Seeing her like this, Nalan Jie was a little angry, but he had nothing to do. In addition, this was a public area, so he could only give her a fierce look, and then looked helplessly into the square.
At this time, nearly half an hour had passed since the start of the assessment. In the square, some alchemists with few refining materials had already finished refining the medicinal materials and began to prepare for the next step.
Ignoring the contestants who had finished refining, Xiao Yan looked at the medicine cauldron intently, occasionally throwing in a medicinal plant with his left hand, while his right hand quickly sucked out the refined material from the medicine cauldron, and then put it into the jade pot.
in a bottle.
As he was so busy, a little sweat gradually appeared on Xiao Yan's forehead. Without wiping it off, he put the last medicinal plant on the stone platform into the medicine cauldron. After about ten minutes, he carefully put the last medicinal material into the medicine cauldron.
A portion of the refined material was absorbed and put into a jade bottle.
Seeing how smoothly the refining process went, Xiao Yan finally breathed a long sigh of relief. He turned around and looked around. He was a little surprised to find that the little princess, Liu Ling and Yan Li had not yet finished refining.
.
"Tsk, tsk, it seems that the level of the elixir they want to refine this time is not low. Although the number of refined medicinal materials does not represent the level of the elixir, generally speaking, the more materials that need to be refined, the more complex it is.
The level should not be low." Xiao Yan shook his head slightly, rested for a while, and then started the next step of melting the pill with a solemn expression.
Green flames rose slowly in the medicine cauldron. Xiao Yan stared closely at the rising flames. After a moment, his hands suddenly started dancing. Bottles of previously refined essence materials were poured into the medicine cauldron in an orderly manner.
In the cauldron, flames suddenly surged up, wrapping the materials instantly...
His eyes were slightly closed, and the surging soul power spread out from the center of Xiao Yan's eyebrows. At this moment, the soul power almost poured out, and every subtle reaction of the material fusion in the medicine cauldron was instantly returned to his mind.
Then use it to quickly compare it with the reaction described in the prescription to judge whether the direction of alchemy is correct.
When Xiao Yan started to melt the pills, the little princess, Liu Ling, and Yan Li also finished refining the materials one after another. Without any rest or nonsense, they immediately put the refined materials into the medicine.
In the cauldron, the steps of melting the elixir also began.
On the huge square, there are slight muffled sounds from time to time. These sounds are very familiar to the alchemist, because every time the refining of the elixir fails, it is this extremely annoying sound... and with these
As the sound rang out, from time to time contestants with dejected faces left the venue sadly. As a result, the number of more than a hundred contestants in the square was gradually decreasing...
This conference is like a sieve with many leaks, eliminating those small and weak players. Those who are qualified to go through several rounds of screening and remain are naturally the best of the younger generation.
.
Time passed slowly. On the square, some of the contestants who had calm faces began to feel slightly out of breath. Such a high load of consumption was really extremely tiring.
"Can you tell which of the elixirs they refined is of higher grade?" Hai Bodong walked slowly behind Fa Ma, looked at the square, and asked in a low voice.
"Not yet..." Shaking his head, Fa Ma muttered: "But before the elixir is about to take shape, we can also see some clues. Before the fourth-grade elixir takes shape, it will produce a different kind of elixir.
For the same elixir fragrance, the stronger the elixir fragrance, it means that the elixir he refined is of a higher grade. When the fifth-grade elixir is formed, it will produce substantial energy out of thin air because it contains too much energy.
ripple..."
Haibodong nodded slightly, stopped asking questions, put his hands behind his back, and quietly waited for the end of the game.
When the time was once again beyond the expectations of countless people, after half an hour, Fa Ma's expression on the high platform suddenly changed, and a touch of joy appeared on his old face. He looked towards the direction of Xiao Yan, where the dark red cauldron was
In the middle, a faint fragrance of Dan is slowly spreading out.
"This little guy is going to become a pill so soon? The strange fire is really extraordinary..."
The faint medicinal fragrance that penetrated from Xiao Yan's medicinal cauldron was also noticed by the little princess, Liu Ling and Yan Li who were not far away from him. The two people in front were slightly surprised, but Yan Li took a few sniffs.
After reading the elixir fragrance, he sneered disdainfully. According to the concentration of the elixir fragrance, it is not as good as the elixir he refined this time. If this is the bottom line of that guy, then the champion this time should be
It is none other than Tayanli.
With his eyes fixed on the green elixir that was rolling endlessly in the medicine cauldron, Xiao Yan also took a sip of the elixir fragrance that overflowed, and shook his head slightly. It is very difficult to win with this ordinary three-line green elixir.
"We have no choice but to fight..." Xiao Yan sighed lowly, and suddenly took a deep breath of the air that was scented with elixirs. He quickly took out a lavender elixir pill from the ring with his right hand, and then stuffed it into his mouth.
Middle, chewing slightly, at the same time, the soul power controlling the blue flame suddenly retracted. As the soul power retracted, the originally turbulent green flame also quietly became smaller with a "pop" sound, and
Just when the green flame was about to disappear, Xiao Yan opened his mouth, and a ball of purple flame flew out, and finally poured into the medicine cauldron.
"This little guy... actually wants to refine the second pattern?" Looking at Xiao Yan's actions, Fa Ma, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, felt his heart tighten again. He also knew that if Xiao Yan wanted to win,
, it is absolutely impossible to just rely on the ordinary three-marked Qingling Pill, but to refine the three-marked Qingling Pill, every time the flame changes, it will be the most difficult to grasp. You know, even when he refined it, it will be the most difficult to grasp.
At that time, he had failed two or three times before he succeeded, but Xiao Yan only got the prescription for one night, and there were still many key points that he had not explored thoroughly. After all, no matter how talented he was, he would not be able to do it like this.
In a short period of time, I thoroughly studied the fourth-grade prescriptions.
"Little guy... pay attention to yourself... you don't have many opportunities."
Whispering in a low voice, at a certain moment, Fa Ma's face suddenly changed. He suddenly noticed that the originally peaceful flames in Xiao Yan's medicine cauldron suddenly became chaotic. This is the transition between flames, which is the easiest and most difficult to occur.
Mistakes to avoid.
He stared closely at the center of the square, where the purple flames of the color of the medicine cauldron almost broke out of the restraints of the roof, and the air around the stone platform was smoked to the point of becoming unreal.
After making such a big noise, countless glances from the audience immediately came over. When they saw Xiao Yan's face that was dripping with sweat and a little red, they all screamed in low voices.
"Alas...failed..." Feeling the increasingly violent fluctuations, Fa Ma sighed softly after a while, with a slight bitterness on his old face.
Shortly after Fa Ma's voice fell, a muffled sound suddenly and harshly came from the medicine cauldron in front of Xiao Yan. The purple flames were quietly extinguished, and faint black ashes poured out from the medicine cauldron...
"Alas..." Upon hearing that muffled sound, a series of sighs of regret rang out from both sides of the audience.
