According to the second record of the Danhuang Lu, Xiao Chen first invested the soft spiritual power into the furnace that was also transformed into spiritual power, and the spiritual power that was transformed into fire increased, and when he felt that the three spiritual powers were slowly fused, Xiao Chen slowly put the spiritual power marked as purple into the furnace.

A powerful spiritual force suddenly appeared, violently impacting the three strands of spiritual power that had just been fused together, if it weren't for Xiao Chen's stubborn control, he would almost knock the three strands of spiritual power that had been fused together.

And Xiao Chen in reality, his face suddenly turned pale, and a drop of cold sweat fell on his forehead, when this drop of cold sweat just slipped from the corner of his forehead, it was quickly evaporated by Xiao Chen with spiritual power, and at the same time, his Yuan Dan turned quickly, and his pale face quickly returned to ruddy, and there was no paleness.

All this process only happened between breathing, so no one noticed that Xiao Chen was wrong just now, and he was a little careful, vaguely feeling that he seemed to see Xiao Chen's face turn pale just now, but when he looked closely, Xiao Chen's face was ruddy and full of complexion, and there was nothing unusual.

So they had to think that they were wrong, anyway, even if they weren't wrong, they couldn't find evidence to explain anything, not to mention, even if Xiao Chen was really wrong just now?

Refining the pill is not time-sensitive for the alchemist, Zhao Wuji controls the fire and throws Yunzhi into the alchemy furnace, and his spiritual power controls the fire, slowly refining the medicinal properties of Yunzhi.

It would take a lot of time to refine all the medicinal properties of Yunzhi, and as long as he kept the mental power of controlling the fire stable, he could take the time to rest for a while.

Zhao Wuji looked up at Xiao Chen opposite, and saw Xiao Chen staring at the few medicinal herbs on the table in a daze, Yunzhi was still placed aside and not thrown into the alchemy furnace. And the fire under the alchemy furnace is also burning at the smallest temperature, according to the burning speed of Xiao Chen's fire, I don't know when the furnace of medicinal materials in the alchemy furnace will be able to be refined.

Although he didn't know why Xiao Chen was distracted at this time, Zao Wou-Ki was still subconsciously happy.

The two of them are competing against the same elixir, and the refining time will not be too different, in addition to comparing the quality of the elixir made by the two of them, there is also a point that is the refining time.

It's not that the longer the alchemist refines, the better the elixir he refines, and the time doesn't have much to do with the quality of the elixir.

And the shorter the time, it can only show that the alchemist's control of the fire is very accurate, and he can successfully refine the pill in the shortest possible time; similarly, if it takes longer, it can only mean that the alchemist's spiritual power is not so strong, and the control of the fire is not so proficient, and he will lose one step first.

Zao Wou-Ki is now in his eighties, he has been an alchemist since he was forty years old, refining pills for more than forty years, and in terms of familiarity with the steps of refining pills, he far surpasses Xiao Chen.

Zhao Wouji was still very confident in this, he laughed at Xiao Chen in his heart for a while, and he was a little unhappy when he thought that Xiao Chen was the dark horse in Sun Moon City this year.

If Xiao Chen was just an ordinary person, he could have forcefully asked Xiao Chen to fulfill his bet and give up the position of the city lord of Wumeng Valley.

But Xiao Chen is now famous, he competed with Xiao Chen, although the two reached an agreement, but for others, there are handles to attack him, and it is not so easy for him to easily get the position of city lord.

Ouyang Heng gave Xiao Chen the position of the city lord of Wumeng Valley, and he must have wanted to win over Xiao Chen, a cultivation genius, if he really dared to take over the position of the city lord, Ouyang Heng would be the first person who would not let him go.

It is true that the mainland respects the strong, but often those strong have also become the hegemons of one side, whether it is strength or power, people dare not despise it.

The Zhao family is just a big family in the Heavenly Saint Kingdom, but it is not enough to put it in the entire Western Continent, although Zhao Wuji is very unwilling, he also has to become, in front of the Ouyang royal family, he is powerless to resist.

In this way, he won, at most, Zhao Ling's soul bell was saved, but Xiao Chen's side would not pay anything.

As soon as he thought of this, Zao Wou-Ki was full of displeasure, he secretly glanced at Xiao Chen, and his eyes flashed with calculations.

He had always wanted to enter the Evergreen Pavilion, but with his qualifications, the people on the side of the Evergreen Pavilion didn't want him at all, and he had already hit a wall several times.

With his temper, he will give up after hitting a wall once at most, but who let Evergreen Pavilion have a relationship with Zhongzhou.

Zhongzhou's resources and aura are far beyond the four continents, and there is no one on the four continents who does not envy Zhongzhou's strong aura.

People who live on the four continents, the place they want to go to the most is Zhongzhou, after all, that place is the place with the strongest aura in the entire Mixed Yuan Realm, if they can take root in Zhongzhou and become a family with a name and surname, they are the monarchs of the other four continents, and they don't have to be taken seriously.

The people of the Zhao family have always been extremely ambitious, but they can't establish any contact with Zhongzhou at all with their identity, otherwise they would have gone to work for Zhongzhou.

What Zao Wou-Ki is thinking about now is to wait until the end of the competition, when he wins Xiao Chen, and then he will publicize the matter. If he remembered correctly, the people of the Evergreen Pavilion were also in the Qiongyu Pavilion, and he would definitely see the two of them competing.

He went to the Evergreen Pavilion before, and the people inside always said that he was not qualified enough, but if he used Xiao Chen's springboard, presumably the people of the Evergreen Pavilion would also take him into consideration.

The power of Zhongzhou is above the four continents, and the same is true of the Evergreen Pavilion that belongs to Zhongzhou, that is, Ouyang Heng, the Heavenly Saint Emperor, and he has always treated the people of the Evergreen Pavilion with courtesy.

If he enters the Evergreen Pavilion, the entire Zhao family will also follow him to ascend to heaven, and his elder brothers will definitely come to curry favor with him with a shy face at that time, regretting that they squeezed him out of Ningyang City to be the city lord in the first place.

Now only this kind of thought can make Zhao Wuji's mood a little better, and he unconsciously showed a smile on his face, as if he had seen Ouyang Heng's respectful appearance towards him, as well as those people in the Zhao family, one by one, they were servile and courteous to him.

The people watching from the attic did not miss the expressions of the two, because Xiao Chen had been in a daze, and his whole face was expressionless, so more people paid attention and looked at Zhao Wouji, and the smile shown by Zhao Wouji happened to be seen clearly by everyone.

Someone in the attic joked: "You see, Zao Wou-Ki is worthy of Danling, looking at his strategizing face, it seems that there is no suspense in this competition." ”

"Isn't it, although City Lord Xiao is indeed a genius, he even jumped four steps in a row at once, but he himself said that it was because he didn't break through when he should have broken through before, and this time he just squeezed all of them together to break through, and when it comes to proficiency, it still depends on City Lord Zhao." ”

"Hey, the Lord of Xiao City is also the Lord of a City, how can he do things so impulsively. ”
