Tiansheng City has been taken over by Taiyuan Mountain. After Hou Feishao was ambushed, the entire city was blocked off. Only entry was allowed, and exit was not allowed. In addition, there were often powerful old men with a team flying over the sky, searching for suspicious people, but they would definitely find nothing because they had no clues at all.
The next day, just as Xiyi Pavilion opened its doors, Hou Feishao arrived in a luxurious sedan chair, followed by a very powerful-looking alchemist, a very young man.
"Is this the so-called future Alchemy God of Taiyuan Mountain? He is really young. I heard that he is already an alchemist who can refine lower-grade heaven-level pills at such a young age."
"Hou Feishao invited him to deal with Fan Yakun. Isn't this simply abusing him? Everyone knows that Fan Yakun was injured last night, and his internal injuries have not healed for many years. This is clearly bullying!"
Many people were whispering in the distance.
"This kid's name is Zhang Yanqing. He was born with Heavenly Fire, and he will most likely be able to cultivate Chaos Fire in the future. His attainments in alchemy are extremely high, and no one in the younger generation of the Holy Alchemy Realm can rival him." Fan Yakun told Shen Xiang: "What grade of pill can you refine now?"
"Middle-grade Earth Grade!" Shen Xiang replied.
"Not bad, the progress is quite fast. Entering the upper earth-grade is a hurdle that many alchemists find difficult to overcome." Fan Yakun said: "I will ask them to limit the rules to earth-grade middle-grade pills. They have this genius alchemist, so the conditions should be much more relaxed."
Hou Feishao was sitting in a luxurious sedan chair, and there were several powerful old men protecting him outside. It seemed that they were worried that he would be ambushed again like last night.
"I've heard that the alchemists in your Xiyi Pavilion are all very powerful. Our Taiyuan Mountain alchemist wants to compete with you. It will also be a kind of experience for him." Hou Feishao's voice was filled with an annoying arrogant tone: "Hand over your powerful alchemist, and don't come out to embarrass yourself!"
"Why do I have to accept your challenge?" Fan Yakun was very angry and wanted to rush over and break this guy's nose: "You hurt me last night, and I haven't settled the score with you yet!"
"I remember that the medicine shops in Tiansheng City must accept at least one unconditional challenge every ten years, otherwise they will be kicked out!" Hou Feishao sneered.
"Well, how do you want to compete?" Fan Yakun asked, suppressing his anger.
Zhang Yanqing stepped forward, took out a lot of broken medicinal herbs and threw them on the ground. When many people saw these broken medicinal herbs, they took a deep breath, because these broken medicinal herbs were very precious, and there were so many of them in Taiyuan Mountain.
The entrance of Xiyi Pavilion was soon filled with discarded medicinal herbs. These herbs could not be planted for various reasons, but in the hands of an excellent alchemist, these herbs could be made into pills.
"You should be familiar with these medicinal herbs!" Zhang Yanqing asked coldly. As the most talented alchemist of the younger generation in the Holy Alchemy World, he naturally had an air of arrogance.
"Qi Shen Dan!" Fan Yakun sighed, "Qi Shen Dan is a mid-grade earth-level pill that can help people cultivate both true qi and spiritual consciousness at the same time. However, even in the Holy Pill World, the medicinal materials have long been extinct. I didn't expect you to have so many discarded medicinal materials."
"Yes, the Qi Shen Pill is an earth-grade mid-level pill. It is listed as an earth-grade mid-level pill because it is so easy to refine. In the future, it can become an earth-grade top-level pill! But if it is refined with discarded medicinal materials, the difficulty will be magnified a lot!" After Zhang Yanqing finished speaking, he continued to take out the discarded Qi Shen Pill medicinal materials. They were piled up like two small hills as high as a person. There were so many of them. If they were intact medicinal materials, they could be refined into many furnaces!
Zhang Yanqing looked provocative and said, "I know that you two are good alchemists. You are the only alchemists among the younger generation who can turn discarded medicinal materials into pills."
It is indeed difficult to refine discarded medicinal materials into pills, and it is also a great test of the level of the alchemist. Although these medicinal materials are discarded, the medicinal energy contained in them is still enough to condense into pills, and combining multiple materials can also reduce the difficulty.
"You come? Or you come?" Zhang Yanqing looked at Lin Xiyi, then at Fan Yakun.
"I'll do it!" Shen Xiang walked out. He turned into an inconspicuous young man, dressed very simply, and did not look like an alchemist at all.
The moment Shen Xiang stepped out, many people frowned. From his appearance, he was indeed not very good, but when everyone saw that Fan Yakun had no intention of stopping him, they knew that this man was a hidden talent.
"Just you?" Zhang Yanqing looked at Shen Xiang with disdain.
"Let's talk about the rules!" Shen Xiang didn't say much.
"Two piles of discarded Qi Shen Dan medicinal materials, you and I each have one pile. Whoever refines more Qi Shen Dan in one day will win, and the Qi Shen Dan will belong to him! Also, if I have refined all the medicinal materials and you still have a lot, and the time is not up, I can use your medicinal materials to refine." Zhang Yanqing looked down on the young man in front of him. He felt that competing with him would lower his status.
Shen Xiang nodded and said: "If I finish refining my pile of herbs first and the time is not up yet, and you still have a lot of herbs, I can also take your herbs to refine, right!"
"That's right, but you don't have that possibility!" Zhang Yanqing sneered.
"Are there any other rules?" Shen Xiang asked again.
"The furnace we use is our own. If the furnace explodes, it means failure."
Shen Xiang nodded. Being able to use discarded medicinal materials to refine the Qi Shen Pill made him secretly happy, because he had been unable to find the medicinal materials for the Qi Shen Pill. Su Meiyao had said that this pill was magical. It was only one pill, but it had the effects of two pills!
He took an alchemy furnace and checked it. It had not been tampered with and its quality was acceptable. It seemed that Hou Feishao was planning to defeat Xiyi Pavilion in an upright manner. Of course, Zhang Yanqing was not one to use tricks to defeat others.
"How do you plan to win? This kid is no pushover!" Su Meiyao asked.
"I'll refine one or two furnaces first, and after I'm familiar with it, I'll refine the whole pile in one go!" Shen Xiang already had a thorough plan. The alchemy technique he obtained that day allowed him to make great progress in alchemy, and he also had many methods to assist in alchemy and speed up the process.
"Oh? Is this a new method you just learned from the Heavenly Refining Technique?" Su Meiyao's eyes lit up, and she was looking forward to the moment when Shen Xiang would show his skills.
"Good sister, I won't let you down."
Zhang Yanqing had already taken out some auxiliary medicinal materials. Shen Xiang could tell at a glance that the quality of those auxiliary medicinal materials was extremely high, which would help to make up for the shortage of discarded medicinal materials. This was also what he wanted to do. He had done this before, so it was very easy for him to refine the discarded medicinal materials.
Shen Xiang also took out auxiliary medicinal materials. Although they looked very different from Zhang Yanqing's, these auxiliary medicinal materials were all made with the Divine Liquid of Creation, and it can be said that they contained magical power.
