Chapter 326: Two Types of Pills in One Furnace
After the head referee finished speaking, everyone’s gaze once again focused on Xiao Huo.
Only his furnace remained lit.
Xiao Huo let out a breath and raised his arm. The True Qi hand suspended above the furnace struggled to open the lid.
Whoosh——
The pillar of medicinal fragrance soared into the sky like an anchor.
Everyone was speechless.
He really succeeded.
Xiao Huo carefully controlled the dissipating True Qi hand.
After staying inside the furnace for a while, crystal clear spirit pills were brought out.
“What spirit pill is this?”
“Is it another Marrow Cleansing Pill?”
“Judging by the color, I don’t think so.”
In the audience, the crowd was restless as they guessed Xiao Huo’s final type of spirit pill.
In the judges’ panel, all the elders recognized the spirit pill in Xiao Huo’s hand at a glance.
“The Blood Condensing Pill. It is worth three points.”
“It’s just three points. It’s still a little difficult for him to get first place.
“But that doesn’t matter anymore. ”
…
In the arena.
When Ou Mincai saw the spirit pill that Xiao Huo took out, he first heaved a sigh of relief before laughing out loud. “Hahaha! Looks like the first place is still mine.”
Ou Mincai was the most popular candidate for first place, but Xiao Huo’s sudden appearance made him extremely nervous.
He had only failed once during the entire process of refining a Gold Pill worth seven points.
The other partic.i.p.ants who had the potential to win refined the same pill as Ou Mincai, but they had failed more times than him.
Therefore, it was certain that he would be number one.
The partic.i.p.ants came over one after another to congratulate him.
With the appearance of Xiao Huo’s spirit pill, the Qi Refinement group’s alchemy compet.i.tion should have come to an end.
The corner of Xiao Huo’s mouth curled up slightly. After transferring the Blood Condensing Pill into the jade bottle, the large True Qi hand that had yet to dissipate extended towards the furnace again.
Upon seeing this, the crowd was perplexed.
“What is Xiao Huo doing?”
“I don’t know!”
Xiao Huo’s actions were very puzzling.
Ou Mincai stopped laughing. He frowned and looked at Xiao Huo with a serious expression.
Xiao Huo was not distracted. He placed all his attention on the giant hand.
The True Qi in his body had truly reached the point of complete surrender.
At the same time, his stamina had also reached its limit.
His entire body was overloaded.
Soon, the True Qi hand fiddled with the furnace for a moment before reappearing before everyone’s eyes.
At this moment, everyone was dumbstruck. There was shock written all over their faces.
The entire venue fell into silence.
Xiao Huo was holding a bunch of round beads in his hand.
What else could this be but spirit pills?
“Inedia Pill!”
“Two kinds of pills in one furnace?”
“This, this, this…”
The elders’ faces twitched in shock.
“Cheating, Xiao Huo cheated!”
“Head referee, Xiao Huo cheated!”
After a moment of silence, Ou Mincai pointed at Xiao Huo and shouted loudly.
“How can there be two types of pills be produced in one refinement? He clearly cheated.”
“Head referee, Xiao Huo cheated. Cancel his partic.i.p.ating qualifications.” Ou Mincai shouted like a madman with bloodshot eyes.
The head referee approached Xiao Huo with a grave expression.
“Xiao Huo, aren’t you going to explain?” The head referee asked in a deep voice.
Xiao Huo nodded.
He first put the Inedia Pill into the bottle, then turned around and stared at Ou Min Cai. “Who said that two kinds of spirit pills cannot be produced in one refinement?
“Fool, It’s just that you’ve never seen it done before!
“Now you have.
“Why? Are you indignant, claiming that I cheated?”
“You… you go ask the elders and see what they say.” Ou Mincai said in exasperation.
The elders were frowning hard. This was the first time they had seen such a situation. It was hard to conclude.
At this time, Jiang Guihua walked down from the judging panel and said, “Xiao Huo is right, such a situation is indeed possible.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the imposing manner rising from Ou Mincai’s body instantly withered.
Jiang Guihua was Peak Master of the Alchemy Peak, a person of authority in the alchemy world.
Since she had already said so, then it must be true.
But Ou Mincai was still unconvinced.
The value of the Inedia Pill was four points.
Xiao Huo’s total value would not have surpa.s.sed his, but with the Inedia Pill, Xiao Huo was now superior.
Ou Min was very compet.i.tive and was unwilling to give up first place.
But with Jiang Guihua, there was really no room for arguments.
The audience was in an uproar.
This was also the first time they had seen such a situation. Some among them were also alchemists. They were doubtful about this situation where two kinds of pills were produced in one furnace.
Unless Xiao Huo could do so again.
Jiang Guihua seemed to understand everyone’s thoughts, so she asked Xiao Huo, “Xiao Huo, can you refine the pills again and convince them?”
Xiao Huo did not hesitate. “Sure!”
With that, Jiang Guihua flicked her sleeves, and a pure and thick stream of True Qi surged into Xiao Huo’s body.
In an instant, Xiao Huo’s exhausted True Qi recovered, and the fatigue in his body was swept away. He returned to his optimal state.
Xiao Huo did not say anything and immediately began to work.
Half an hour later, he opened the furnace again.
Bang!
There was a loud bang.
This time, the pillar of medicinal fragrance was stronger than before. It was like opening a popcorn machine.
Next, Xiao Huo controlled his True Qi hand and took out the spirit pills in the pill furnace.
First, he brought out the Marrow Cleansing Pill. Then, he brought out the Essence Enhancing Pill.
They were worth ten points and nine points, respectively.
This time, everyone had nothing to say.
Two types of pills could really be produced in one furnace.
Ou Mincai looked dispirited as he slumped onto the ground.
He had been defeated, utterly defeated.
The audience erupted.
After witnessing Xiao Huo’s marvelous refinement technique, they were filled with complete admiration for him.
As for the high-level alchemists who were observing and comprehending, it left a trauma in their hearts.
They could only suppress Xiao Huo in terms of cultivation realm, but in terms of alchemy, they were like fireflies compared to the moon.
Initially, they had thought that the Qi Refinement group’s alchemy compet.i.tion would just be a start, but it turned out to be the peak.
One could imagine that the following alchemy compet.i.tions would definitely not be as exciting as this one.
…
After the referees and judges checked carefully, the rankings were announced.
Xiao Huo undoubtedly took first place with an absolute advantage.
The second was Ou Mincai, but he could not get excited.
The third was Du Luo.
…
The rewards for the points-based compet.i.tion were only given up for the top ten. The rest got nothing.
Rewards were divided according to the rankings.
Because this was the first Immortal Cultivation University Games, the reward for the lowest ranking wouldn’t be too bad.
Of course, the best reward still went to the first place. A chance to go to the sacred grounds, which was also a one-year cultivation opportunity in the sect.
This was why everyone was competing so fiercely.
“Brother Mincai, don’t be discouraged. There is still a long way to go. Next year, you will win for sure.”
“Who knew that a dark horse would suddenly appear.”
“A dark horse like Xiao Huo is rare. You will definitely get first place next year.”
Some people were comforting Ou Min Cai.
But Ou Mincai was not listening at all.
His Dao heart had suffered a blow, and it was very difficult for him to pull himself together in a short period of time.
“I hereby announce that the alchemy compet.i.tion of the Qi Refinement group has come to an end. Let us congratulate the partic.i.p.ants who have obtained rewards.
“For those students who did not receive any rewards, don’t be discouraged. When you go back, you must work even harder. I hope that you can achieve good results next year. ”
“In addition, I announce that the Foundation Establishment group’s alchemy compet.i.tion will be held tomorrow morning at eight o’clock.
“There are no other compet.i.tions left. If you have nothing else to do, you may leave.”
Jiang Guihua said loudly.
Not long after, the audience gradually dispersed.
The partic.i.p.ants bid farewell to the elders one by one.
“Xiao Huo, don’t leave yet!” The head referee stopped Xiao Huo.
