It was already midday, and the summer sun was burning every inch of the land.
The emotions of the hundreds of thousands of spectators watching the battle around the Qianlong Platform seemed to have been ignited by the scorching sun. They all looked at the two young men in Dou Dan with concentration, without even blinking, for fear of missing them.
A wonderful moment.
Ten minutes later——
"Whoosh!"
The cauldron in front of Chen Shen suddenly burst into flames. This was his tried-and-tested method: elixir fire brushes the cauldron!
The fire dimmed and the fragrance of medicine overflowed.
Xia Yuanlong was still sitting on his dragon chair, but with the powerful consciousness of the Seven-Star Xuan King, he could immediately sense the changes in Chenshen Medicine Cauldron——
The three Qi-Condensing Orchid Heart Grasses, two Guyuan Lotus Seeds, a middle-grade Xuan Jing, and more than eighty miscellaneous auxiliary herbs have all changed their appearance at this moment, condensing into a round Qi-Reviving Pill!
Xia Yuanlong stretched his body and said, "Chen Shen, successfully refined the first Qi Restoration Pill, a top-grade mortal level pill."
In just ten minutes, Chen Shen had already formed a pill, and it was a top-grade Qi-restoring pill at the mortal level! It’s really incredible!
Even a Xuanjing alchemist may not be able to achieve this kind of efficiency...
Looking back at the progress of Shao Erbi's alchemy, the first step of burning the elixir with fire and turning it into a solid liquid has not yet been completed!
After the young man heard the judgment of the King of Great Xia, his mood suddenly fluctuated greatly, and he blurted out subconsciously: "What? That loser can refine a high-grade mortal level Xuandan in ten minutes? I don't believe it! This is absolutely impossible!"
"Be bold!"
The attendant Zhang* who was standing next to the King of Daxia shouted: "Shao Erbi, how dare you question His Majesty the King's judgment?"
Questioning the King of Daxia, it is not an exaggeration to say that this crime is treason!
Shao Erbi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. She knelt down on the ground and kowtowed in the direction of the King of Great Xia: "I don't dare! I made a mistake for a moment. Please forgive me..."
After pausing for a few breaths, Xia Yuanlong waved his sleeves lightly: "That's it! Let's continue the game."
Shao Erbi kowtowed a few more times before returning to the alchemy furnace and continuing to refine the elixir.
Fortunately, he is only halfway through the first step of refining the elixir. He is not very dependent on sustained soul power and mysterious energy, so even if he has just left for a few breaths, he will not have any doubts about the final elixir.
What adverse effects will it cause?
Shao Erbi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. On the premise of striving to stabilize the elixir, he tried his best to speed up the refining: "Chen Shen was just unlucky just now! His medicine cauldron is far inferior to mine, and his elixir skills
At most, he is on par with me. As long as I try my best, it will be easy to beat him!"
"Chen Shen, you are destined to be stepped on by me forever!"
…
Ten minutes pass by in a blink of an eye.
"Whoosh!"
Another elixir of fire shot up into the sky!
It’s that familiar, light fragrance of the top-grade Mortal Qi Restoring Pill again!
Immediately afterwards, the slightly lazier voice of the King of Great Xia came again: "Chen Shen, you have successfully refined the second Qi Restoration Pill, a top-grade mortal level."
"From Male Gobi! How is this possible?"
Shao Erbi felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His hands shook and he almost destroyed a furnace of elixirs!
He hurriedly regained his consciousness and kept telling himself: "No, I must not panic, I must not be chaotic! Calm down, I need to be calm... I still have a chance!"
…
Time passes minute by minute.
When the third ten minutes ended, the inconspicuous dark copper-colored cauldron in front of Chen Shen, accompanied by the elixir fire brushing the cauldron, once again filled the air with the trickle of medicinal fragrance...
The King of Daxia was already a little numb: "Chen Shen, successfully refined the third Qi Restoration Pill, a top-grade mortal level."
One hundred thousand high-ranking people in the imperial capital couldn't help but take a breath of cold air: "Hey! This Chen Shen of Kowloon City is simply a monster! Every ten minutes, he can refine a high-grade Xuandan of mortal level.
Under the Xuan Realm, I have never heard of anyone with such heaven-defying abilities!"
"Well, in my opinion, he doesn't look like an ordinary nine-star Xuan Alchemist at all. He may have already reached the level of a Xuan Alchemist!"
"A Xuanjing alchemist who is fifteen or sixteen years old? Oh my god..."
"Alas! I had shamelessly questioned Chen Shen's method of alchemy before, and even called him stupid. Now it seems that I am the one who is really stupid! I am as short-sighted as a frog in a well. Ashamed, ashamed..."
"Wait a minute! Think about it, if Chen Shen can maintain the current progress until the end of this battle, what will it be like?"
I don’t know who suddenly raised such a question.
After everyone thought about it, the expressions on everyone's faces were particularly wonderful!
Because ten minutes only accounts for twenty-fourths of the total time limit of two hours.
If Chen Shen can continue to maintain this energy, in two hours, he will be able to refine a total of twenty-four top-grade mortal-level Qi Restoration Pills!
Two hours, twenty-four pills, what is this concept?
Shao Erbi had only refined seven high-grade mysterious pills before, and she had already won the championship!
If Chen Shen can really hold on to the end, it means that his results will be more than three times higher than Shao Erbi, the so-called number one scholar!
…
At this moment, Shao Erbi's Four Pills in One Furnace have just entered the midway stage.
On the other hand, Chen Shen has already refined three high-grade Xuandan pills. He is under great pressure!
"Huchi...huchi..."
Now, Shao Erbi can only calm down her turbulent mood by taking deep breaths to prevent herself from accidentally falling into a tragic situation.
At the same time, he did not forget to deceive himself and think: "Three waves of such efficient alchemy, Chen Shen must have done it at the expense of overdrafting his soul power!"
"The purpose of this little bastard is to confuse my mind and make me perform abnormally! Humph, how can your little skills be hidden from my fiery eyes?"
"Just wait and see. After the next wave, or at least the next wave, Chen Shen will definitely faint because his soul power is overwhelmed! In the end, victory still belongs to me!"
…
However, Shao Erbi will soon discover that his self-righteous inference will be completely ravaged by reality!
The fourth ten minutes passed quietly. Chen Shen successfully refined it again!
In the fifth ten minutes, Chen Shen still succeeded.
The sixth, the seventh, the eighth...
After that, every ten minutes, Chen Shen was able to live up to expectations and successfully refine a high-grade mortal level Xuandan!
Now, half of the two-hour time limit has passed.
Chen Shen has successfully refined twelve high-grade Qi Restoration Pills!
Let’s take a look at our champion Shao Erbi. He has just finished the first round of refining and has made four elixirs in one furnace.
Twelve to four, this gap shattered all Shao Erbi's previous beautiful fantasies!
The number one scholar, who was so handsome just an hour ago, now looks ashen...
