Seeing that Ye Chen was ready, Senior Feng formed a hand seal and a huge hourgla.s.s suddenly appeared.
The hourgla.s.s turned, and the sand inside began to flow down.
“The second round of the compet.i.tion has begun!
As soon as he finished speaking, cheers resounded, and everyone’s gaze turned toward Hong Tao. After all, they had not been able to witness Alchemy Master Hong’s true strength in the earlier round. A pill battle was the best way to do that.
Many of them waited with bated breath and antic.i.p.ation, afraid that they would miss a moment of brilliance.
Duan Huai An’s eyes narrowed slightly. Without hesitation, he forced out a drop of blood essence!
The Essence Condensing Six-Soul Pill was extremely complicated to refine, so he had to use his blood essence and go all out.
This match was extremely crucial, and he had to win it for the Medical G.o.d
sect!
When the cauldron started to move, he quickly clenched his fist and poured the herbs into the cauldron one by one.
At the same time, he forced out a drop of blood essence and shot it at the cauldron. In an instant, the temperature of the cauldron was controlled.
However, Duan Huai An’s face turned paler and paler.
When Hong Tao saw this scene, he sneered, “You’re risking your life. Unfortunately, you still have to become my human sacrifice!”
Seconds later, he roared angrily and released endless true qi to control his cauldron. This time, he did not have the cauldron float in the air. Instead, he was refining the pill seriously.
If he failed again, the reputation he had built here would be destroyed!
However, he had absolute confidence in the second round. This was because, a few days ago, he studied the new pill formula for the Essence Condensing Six-Soul Pill under Senior Feng!
He had practiced many times, and now he could condense seven souls!
It would be enough to crush these two reckless people!
The flames gathered around the cauldron, and the medicinal ingredients continuously flowed into it. Soon, a thick medicinal fragrance wafted out, covering the entire square.
At this moment, he was enjoying the feeling of dominance.
While he was controlling the cauldron and flames, he subconsciously glanced in Ye Chen’s direction.
The gap between him and Duan Huai An was too huge, but this masked young man who had come out of nowhere was an unknown variable!
After all, the young man’s flames just now were too shocking. Seeing Ye Chen now, his expression froze again.
That brat actually had not started refining pills yet!
Instead, he was staring at him with interest!
“You like looking at me that much?” Ye Chen teased calmly.
Hong Tao snorted coldly and stopped looking at Ye Chen. This kid had a sharp tongue, and it had already affected him once. He would definitely not allow himself to be affected a second time!
Meanwhile, Ye Chen quietly took out a cigarette and lit it. Then, with a flick of his finger, it accurately landed in his mouth.
“As usual, I’ll give you one cigarette’s worth of time!
Hong Tao almost spat out a mouthful of blood, but he forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart and focused on refining the pill.
Out of sight, out of mind!
This kid was a troublemaker!
Senior Feng looked at Ye Chen with interest, and his eyes narrowed.
For some reason, he could feel something different about Ye Chen. The kid exuded a sense of confidence in his own Alchemy Dao.
His gaze turned questioning as he muttered, “Where did this kid come from? Alchemy is different from martial arts. Talent is not important, but experience is. However, this kid is so young, what experience can he have in alchemy?” Countless gazes turn toward Ye Chen. Everyone was curious as to what this masked young man would do.
Finally, the cigarette finished, after which Ye Chen stretched lazily and finally began to use the cauldron.
Hong Tao naturally noticed Ye Chen’s actions from the corner of his eye and sneered, “I want to see how you refine this pill!”
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Ye Chen condensed his flames. However, the flames were very weak, and did not seem to be suited for use in alchemy at all!
At the same time, Ye Chen threw in some medicinal herbs.
He even took out a sword and stirred it!
F*ck!
How was this alchemy? Why did it feel like he was cooking hodgepodge soup?
Most importantly, those medicinal ingredients were not the medicinal ingredients needed for the Essence Condensing Six-Soul Pill at all!
When Hong Tao saw the situation, he was already completely certain that this brat did not know alchemy at all. With one hand controlling the cauldron in front of him, he pointed at Ye Chen with the other and said, “Kid, are you giving up early? I originally thought that you were a respectable opponent, but now it seems that you don’t even know what alchemy is! Haha!
-Why don’t you take a look at what you’re refining? It’s obvious that you can’t refine a pill!”
“People probably think that you’re making soup! Haha!”
After Hong Tao spoke, the onlookers below the stage also laughed loudly.
As cultivators who had lived in the Land of Slaughter for so long, they naturally knew a thing or two about alchemy, and it clearly looked nothing like what Ye Chen was doing!
What qualifications did this kind of person have to compete with Alchemy Master Hong!
It was even an insult to the term alchemist!
“Get off the stage!”
The crowd roared even louder. At this moment, Ye Chen was the center of attention.
Duan Huai An naturally noticed the commotion. He glanced at Ye Chen and his actions and sighed. This kid was really too good at p.i.s.sing people off.
However, it was understandable. Which person his age would be able to patiently study and practice alchemy?
It was such a pity. He was so young, yet would end up as a human sacrifice for Hong Tao’s alchemy.
Although Duan Huai An felt a little regretful, he did not stop refining and forced out another drop of blood essence. He was betting it all on this compet.i.tion.
At this moment, Hong Tao was in high spirits. He was definitely going to win!
He looked at Senior Feng and hurriedly said, “Senior Feng, this kid didn’t refine any pill. Even if he did, it’s definitely not the right one, so he still failed. Shouldn’t we judge this person to have lost?”
Senior Feng shook his head at Ye Chen’s ridiculous actions. He took a step forward and said, “Although I don’t know what you’re doing, you’ve already failed the theme of this round. You’ve lost, stop.”
Ye Chen was not prepared to stop. Instead, he calmly took out a ceramic bowl from the Samsara Graveyard.
He clenched his fist and a ball of liquid floated in the air, which then landed in the ceramic bowl.
Ye Chen took a sip and enjoyed it.
Then, his gaze suddenly shot toward Senior Feng and Hong Tao, and he said indifferently, “Didn’t you say that there are no other restrictions?
“That’s right,” Senior Feng nodded and said, “But the thing in your bowl isn’t a pill at all.”
“Haha!” Hong Tao laughed even louder and said, “Brat, don’t tell me you think that what’s in the bowl is the Essence Condensing Six-Soul Pill?” Ridiculous!
We are not fools!”
Ye Chen rolled his eyes at Hong Tao and said, “I didn’t say that I refined the Essence Condensing Six-Soul Pill.”
“I’m just brewing some tonics for myself before refining. Besides, the time limit hasn’t elapsed yet. Why are you guys so impatient?”
Hong Tao and Senior Feng were stunned, and did not know what to say. Judging from the smell emanating from Ye Chen’s bowl, it was indeed a spiritual herb tonic!
However, this kid was not f*cking refining pills, but instead refining tomes first? Had he lost his mind?
Before anyone could react, Ye Chen finished the tonic in his bowl in one gulp..
