Volume 4: Soaring to the Sky Chapter 800: Negative Textbook?
Lu Yao didn't know that there was such a gamble outside, he just prepared for his fourth round of assessment with peace of mind. When the three of them followed the Taoist priest forward for about ten minutes or so, they entered the room for the fourth round of assessment.
This is not so much a house as an indoor medicine garden. As far as the eye can see, there are some ordinary herbs in the medicine garden, and there are no particularly precious herbs, but the strange thing is that since the three of them entered the room, they still found that this place is different.
The air here is even fresher than outside, and there is a different smell in the air, as if it has been specially treated by some kind of formation, which makes people smell and want to smell, and there is a faint sweet smell in the air.
After a quick glance at the room, the three of them turned their gaze to the three men and women of different ages sitting at a long table not far away, and it was clear that they were the examiners for this round.
After the Taoist priest left, the only female examiner among the three examiners stood up and read out the contents of this round of examinations. There are no specific questions in this round of assessment, and the only requirement is that the three of them each pick nine kinds of herbs from the medicine garden, and then use the medicine furnace they provide to make alchemy, and finally the three examiners will judge the winner according to the speed of the contestant's alchemy and the quality of the alchemy medicine.
However, there are two rigid requirements, one is that the herbs can only be picked at most nine plants, which can be as little as possible, and the other is that everyone only has one chance in the alchemy process, and if they fail, they think they will be eliminated.
"There is no time limit for this assessment, but time is an important assessment criterion for judging the outcome of the assessment." After the examiner read out all the rules, she looked at the three of them and said loudly, "When you're ready, you're ready to go!" ”、
With an order, the three of them began to get busy, and the three examiners also left their seats and came to the vicinity of the three of them, observing every choice and movement of the three up close.
Lu Yao was not in a hurry to pick herbs, he shuttled back and forth from the medicine garden, carefully inspecting each herb, until the other two contestants had all selected the herbs needed for their alchemy, and then they quickly and accurately dug up nine herbs in the medicine garden.
"Old Xue, what do you think?" After the female examiner saw that the three of them had prepared the herbs they wanted to alchemize, she asked an old man beside her in a low voice.
"That boy has the best chance of winning!" Xue Lao pointed at Lu Yao expressionlessly and said.
"Mr. Si, what do you think?" The female examiner asked another man next to her and said.
"I have the same opinion as Xue Lao." Mr. Si said: "That kid's understanding of medicinal herbs is obviously better than the other two, when he picks medicinal herbs, he does not blindly consider picking the best part of the herbs, but through special techniques to preserve the medicinal properties of the whole herb perfectly, it can be said that the herbs he picked have won better than the other two before refining!"
"Well, this boy is indeed not simple!" The female examiner also agreed with Mr. Xue and Mr. Si's statement and echoed.
“……”
The three examiners were optimistic about Lu Yao before they started alchemy, but when Lu Yao started alchemy, the faces of the three of them changed in unison, especially Mr. Si, who was even slightly angry, and said without hesitation: "I really looked away, I originally thought he was a different alchemy genius, but I didn't expect him to be an ignorant kid at all, and I don't know how he passed the first three rounds of assessments!" ”
Mr. Si was angry, and Xue Lao was no better, but he didn't scold, he glanced at the female examiner and said, "You take out the transcripts of his first three rounds of assessment and take a look!" ”
Xue Lao's voice fell, and the female examiner put Lu Yao's first three rounds of report cards in front of the three of them, originally the three of them all agreed that Lu Yao's results in the first three rounds would not be too good after seeing Lu Yao's alchemy, but when they saw Lu Yao's results, they were all dumbfounded - three perfect scores!
"How so?"
"How so?"
The female examiner and Mr. Si were surprised in unison.
"Three perfect scores, only the Deng family, the Xu family and the kid from the Lan family have done it, I didn't expect this kid to be a perfect score!" The female examiner said in surprise.
The results of the first three rounds are not only the results, but also the comments of the three examiners, and the compliments of the examiners of the three rounds for Lu Yao can be called the perfection of perfection, and it is said that Lu Yao is really perfect to the point that the examiners can't judge.
"Look at what he is doing, it's completely a negative teaching material for alchemy, a failed teaching material!" After Mr. Si looked at the results, he turned his eyes to Lu Yao, he wanted to determine whether there was a mistake in his judgment, but when he saw Lu Yao throw the nine-flavor herbs he had carefully picked into the medicine furnace, he didn't get angry, and scolded directly.
Although Xue Lao and the female examiner didn't say anything, the thoughts in their hearts were indeed exactly the same as Mr. Si's, and in their eyes, Lu Yao was really exactly the same as a negative textbook. Refining pills has very strict requirements for the order of herbs and the amount of each entry, and one negligence may lead to the failure of alchemy, or even the furnace will be blown up.
But looking at Lu Yao in front of him, he seems to have no idea these truths, as soon as he comes up, he just throws them indiscriminately, where it looks like alchemy, it is like a housewife throwing all kinds of garbage into the trash can at will, which makes people can't bear to look at it directly.
On the other hand, Sui Yuan and Wei Ran, although the two of them did not get praise from the three judges when they picked herbs before, but when it came to the alchemy link, they still did it very standardly, the amount of each herb and the time it took to put it into the furnace were exactly the same, and they were young but they had the demeanor of an alchemy master.
"Buzz ......"
As they spoke, the three of them found that Lu Yao's Dan furnace had a distance vibration, as if it was about to explode at any time.
"This is called self-inflicted iniquity, and you shall not live!" Mr. Si scolded in the direction of Lu Yao hatefully.
And the female examiner looked at Xue Lao with a solemn expression and asked, "Xue Lao, what should I do, let him continue to mess around, and directly cancel his qualification after the medicine furnace explodes, or?" ”
"Wait!" Xue Lao didn't know what was wrong at this time, and after saying something unusually, he stopped making a sound, just staring at Lu Yao tightly.
Xue Lao was the oldest among the three, and the three of them seemed to respect him, and he spoke, and the female examiner and Mr. Si were not easy to object, so they turned their eyes to Lu Yao.
At this time, I saw Lu Yao suddenly put his hands on both sides of the medicine furnace, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a powerful spiritual power slowly spread towards the medicine furnace, wrapping it in it.
Spiritual power is invisible to the naked eye, but the three judges still keenly captured it.
At this time, Xue Lao's face changed and changed, and in his eyes, Lu Yao's blind tossing and turning at this time gave people a feeling of flowing water, as if all this was part of his plan.
Although when Lu Yao put the medicinal materials into the medicine furnace before, it gave people a feeling of tossing and turning blindly and not being rigorous enough, but now I see Lu Yao's hands constantly moving up and down the medicine furnace, and sometimes waving his hand to adjust the temperature of the flame below and the shape of the flame, that kind of posture is clearly like a rehearsal many times, as if he is extremely skillful.
Moreover, I don't know the most important thing, the most important thing is that Lu Yao's spiritual power is so strong that Xue Lao, a Dan Dao master, sighs to himself.
The requirements for the players in the first three rounds of this assessment are not very high, which means that the requirements for their cultivation realm are not high, but when it comes to the fourth level, if there is no real talent and learning, it is really difficult to pass smoothly, and the mental power of the players who can reach this level is naturally superhuman, but the control of mental power that Lu Yao showed at this time is not only superior, it is simply not the level that a person of his age should have.
With the passage of time, Xue Lao finally saw some eyebrows, of course, the female examiner and Mr. Si naturally also saw some clues, although Mr. Si and the female examiner were not as strong as Xue Lao, but if they didn't even have this in their eyes, then what qualifications did they have to sit here as an examiner?
Lu Yao controlled the whole process of fire and herb refining very well through spiritual power, everything was exactly right, after all, alchemy of this strength was still very simple for him, until the whole process was completed, Lu Yao suddenly opened his eyes suddenly, and a powerful spiritual power surged out like a storm in an instant, and at the same time he shouted loudly: "Condensation!" ”
As this powerful spiritual power poured into the Dan furnace, it was like an invisible big hand grasping the medicinal liquids that had been refined but scattered everywhere, and then squeezed them together.
"Up!"
Lu Yao snorted, and then slapped his hands on the Dan furnace, the lid of the furnace instantly rose in response, and a round pill with a strong medicinal fragrance erupted from the Dan furnace, Lu Yao grabbed a pre-prepared Nanmu box in front of him, and calmly put the pill into it.
"Can you count that you have passed the assessment?" Lu Yao held the Nanmu box containing the pill in his right hand, smiled calmly and walked towards the three examiners, and asked with a smile when he placed the Nanmu box in front of the examiners.
At this time, the entire examination room was surprisingly quiet, although Sui Yuan and Wei Ran had not completed the entire process of alchemy, but they also knew that their trip to Tianbao Pavilion this time was over, and they subconsciously stopped the movements in their hands, waiting for what had become a reality, but it was the last thing they wanted to admit to happen.
