Refining Pharmacist Competition (4)

Gu Weixiong felt a bit annoyed in his heart. If he had known about this, he should have investigated it thoroughly earlier.

Speaking of which, it was all because of that cunning and sly guy, Situ Yan!

After falling into his trap last time, Gu Weixiong didn't expect Situ Yan to become so clever!

Emperor Beichen's face always carried a faint smile. He had some understanding of Hong Zhuang's alchemy skills.

Perhaps, in this Alchemist Grand Competition, Hong Zhuang would shine!

Lan Yunxiao and Mu Lingbing had been standing behind Emperor Beichen all along. Even though the voices exchanged between Gu Weixiong and Situ Yan were small, being at such a close distance, they could hear everything clearly.

However, after hearing these words, their astonishment became even stronger.

They didn't expect their daughter to be so outstanding in alchemy.

Not only that, watching Baili Hongzhuang refining pills with such ease and proficiency, it was evident that she had immersed herself in this field for a long time.

Moreover, despite facing the questioning of many disciples, Baili Hongzhuang remained calm and composed.

Just this mental resilience alone already set her apart from ordinary people.

Although they didn't know the final outcome of this Alchemist Grand Competition, they were already proud of their daughter!

Time passed slowly, and alchemy was inherently a slow and boring process.

However, none of the disciples present felt bored. Instead, they kept paying attention to every change in each alchemist.

The surroundings gradually became silent, and everyone closed their mouths, but their gazes continued to observe.

After an hour, Baili Hongzhuang finally finished extracting all the essence from the medicinal herbs.

Because there were many herbs, the time required for extracting the essence also increased significantly.

At almost the same time, many alchemists successfully completed the extraction process.

Next was the crucial moment of fusion!

When various attributes of medicinal herbs needed to be fused together, this process had to be extremely careful.

Otherwise, if any issues arose, all previous efforts would be in vain, and they would have to start over!

Baili Hongzhuang carefully controlled the heat and slowly condensed all the essence of the herbs together.

This process was extremely slow, and there was no room for impatience.

Her mental power enveloped the flames and the essence, constantly adjusting them. Any slight deviation would lead to failure.

"Hiss!"

A muffled sound came, followed by the smell of something burning, spreading rapidly from the pill furnace, quickly enveloping the entire competition platform.

One of the alchemists in front of Baili Hongzhuang encountered a problem during the fusion process, and everything turned into nothingness.

When everyone saw that this alchemist was a disciple of the Tiangang Sect, their expressions couldn't help but turn ugly.

At the same time, the face of this disciple became extremely unsightly. He stared blankly at the scene before him, seemingly unable to believe that he had failed in the fusion. He didn't know what to do and could only stand pale-faced in place.

The disciples of the Tiangang Sect couldn't help but sigh when they saw this scene. This was truly an inauspicious start!

A smile appeared on Gu Weixiong's face. The first failure belonged to a disciple of the Tiangang Sect, which was a good thing.

On the other hand, Situ Yan's expression didn't look so good.

Just at that moment, another similar sound rang out.

"Hiss!"

Following this sound, everyone looked at the second disciple who had failed.
