Chapter 402: Who's Faster Than Whom (Part I)
As soon as the two medicine tripods came out, they immediately attracted most of the attention, and after seeing Mu Shi's black medicine pods without a row, the young students immediately burst into laughter.
It's not that he laughed at it, it's just that Mu Shi showed a talent that ordinary people couldn't reach at the beginning, and almost crushed all the students in the outer courtyard, which was beyond his reach. Now that they finally saw that Mu Shi was more depressed, their hearts were inevitably relieved.
Dan Yiche was also a little surprised that Mu Shi's medicine tripod was so gray, and he blinked his bright eyes and stared curiously, looking like he wanted to say something.
Mu Shi stroked the medicine tripod and smiled, spread his hands and said, "Seeing the smile, I hurried over and didn't prepare any good props." β
Dan Yiche thought for a while, and said a little shyly, "That...... I also have a spare pod here of good quality, if you believe me, you can use mine. β
Mu Shi was a little surprised by the kindness of this weak young man, and then replied with a gentle smile, "Thank you, but I believe that for the alchemist, the medicine tripod is just the icing on the cake, not a necessity." β
Dan Yiche's eyes burst out with a ball of essence, staring at Mu Shi with burning eyes, the original feeling of weak qi was swept away, and the momentum was sharp, "I didn't expect you to say such a thing, it turned out to be like this, it's unfair for me to use this ding again." As he spoke, he patted the tripod, and the golden tripod spun and shrank rapidly, and finally turned into a palm-sized storage artifact that he retracted.
Under Mu Shi's stunned gaze, he took out an ordinary medicine pod made of high-grade metal, and looked at Mu Shi with some-for-tat, "Now we're even." β
Mu Shi helplessly stroked the bangs in front of his forehead, "Your body....... Well, it doesn't have to be that way. β
"It's just Ren Dan, I can still suppress it." Dan Yiche muttered a little unhappily, as if he was dissatisfied with Mu Shi's concern for his body.
"Okay." Mu Shi didn't want to say more, if the other party wanted to be like this, he would have an extra chance of winning. She is not a virgin, as long as she can achieve her goals, she can even do whatever it takes.
The two of them split the ring, and the two medicine tripods split it into two.
"Are you ready?" Mu Shi stood behind the medicine tripod, smiled faintly and turned his head to look at Dan Yiche.
"Hmm." Dan Yiche stared at Yao Ding tightly, seemed to be a little nervous, kept rubbing the corners of his clothes, and answered Mu Shi's inquiry when he heard it.
"Okay, then, let's get startedβ" As Mu Shi's voice fell, the two summoned flames almost simultaneously.
"Hula-la-" Two flames swayed, one pale gold, the other green!
Mu Shi was surprised to find that Dan Yiche also possessed a medicinal fire, and it was a wood-attribute medicinal fire, full of vigorous aura, and the fury of the flames was all gone.
No wonder...... Mu Shi thought about it, Dan Yiche's body was robbed of too much qi and blood by his strange eyes, and it stands to reason that it should be difficult to survive. Now it seems that it should be his own wood attribute and this medicine fire that helped him.
Dan Yiche also noticed Mu Shi's gaze, and said shyly, "My medicine fire is called Changshengyan, and it is not as powerful as Classmate Jiang." β
Mu Shi came back to his senses, felt some pity for this poor child, shook his head and looked at this strange flame full of vitality in admiration, "It is more suitable for you." β
Dan Yiche held the turquoise flame in his hand, his expression was soft, and his eyes were full of gratitude, "Yes, without it, I wouldn't be where I am today." β
"Your situation is sympathetic, but I will not show mercy." Mu Shi said with a smile.
"No, I'll do my best." Talking about alchemy, Dan Yiche was also very proud, and fought back with a weak chest, and then realized what he had said, and his pale face turned red.
Mu Shi didn't say anything more, with a flick of his fingers, the dual elements of light and fire poured over and poured into the holy fire, causing the holy flame to swell, and under the control of Mu Shi's divine soul power, it turned into a line of fire and rushed towards the medicine ding.
Seeing this, Dan Yiche was not far behind, and immediately summoned the wood and fire dual elements to activate Changshengyan, and the strange flames that also expanded rushed towards the medicine tripod placed in front of him.
The fire inlets of the two pods opened almost at the same time, and the flames poured into them, and the original heat disappeared.
This scene was really exciting, and many people wanted to applaud, but they were afraid of disturbing the alchemist, so they forcibly endured it and their faces turned red.
The first step of alchemy, Wen Ding.
The pod itself is a metal thing, which is cold, but it has very good thermal conductivity. Using the flame to raise the temperature inside the pod to the required level is the basic operation for alchemists.
This step doesn't take much time.
After a few moments, the two opened their eyes almost simultaneously.
Mu Shi raised his palm, and the power of the elements was slapped against the medicine tripod void, and the tripod lid was pulled and flew up. Dan Yiche didn't have such a good physical fitness, but he only had the way to open the medicine pod. I saw that his eyes lit up, and a powerful spiritual power burst out from his eyes, almost substantially turning into transparent energy.
This spiritual power turned into a palm, and a slap slapped on the medicine tripod, lifting the lid away.
Mu Shi was amazed, this Dan Yiche's eyes were born with a powerful divine soul power, and his spiritual power was naturally no longer a problem, he was a natural alchemist, if he didn't become an alchemist, it was estimated that he would definitely die.
Dan Yiche's face flushed, he took a deep breath, grabbed the spirit ring of the medicinal materials provided by the academy and wiped it gently, a fire Lingzhi full of rich fire element aura appeared in his hand, gently pinched the lid of the Lingzhi's flesh, and after confirming that there was no problem, he threw it into the medicine pod, and the gunpowder immediately surrounded it.
Seeing this, Mu Shi smiled slightly, rubbed his hand against the spirit ring, and shook out more than a dozen medicinal materials at once. Not only did Dan Yiche notice the puzzled eyes, but also caused a commotion in the audience.
Just when everyone was wondering what Mu Shi wanted to do, Mu Shi chuckled, and the power of the distant elemental in his hand sucked more than a dozen kinds of medicinal materials, and flew towards the medicine tripod in a row, jumping into the medicine tripod one by one like a good baby.
The pale golden flames instantly burned, enveloping more than a dozen medicinal herbs.
"OMG! Is she crazy?! Refining so many medicinal herbs at once?! β
"It's impossible, how precise it needs to be to control fire!" There was a knuckle of disbelief from fellow alchemists.
"Not only do you need fire control ability, but you also need strong spiritual power to support it! How to refine without perceiving the situation of medicinal materials! β
"Even if you want to increase your speed, you shouldn't mess around like this!"
"That's it, nonsense! It's a waste of these precious herbs! β
Countless complaints sounded, and it was obvious that everyone had found a breakthrough to bring shock when venting their minds.
Dan Yiche's eyes widened in shock, and he said with difficulty for a long time and kindly reminded, "Classmate Jiang, don't force yourself, speed is not the most important thing." β
However, before he finished speaking, he stopped abruptly, and Dan Yiche, who was closest to him, clearly saw that the gunpowder in Mu Shi's medicine pod was scattered into more than a dozen balls, and each of them found suitable medicinal materials to wrap them up and slowly roast them.
"This ......." Everything in front of him was beyond the cognition of the young man who walked by the rules, and Dan showed a trace of confusion with his clear bright eyes.
"There's nothing that can't be, your divine soul power is stronger than mine, why don't you use its power?" Mu Shi is downcast.
Dan Yiche's face showed a hint of enlightenment, but now that the medicinal materials had been put in, he couldn't care about it, so he had to continue to devote himself to refining his own medicinal herbs.
The Heavenly Elder touched his beard, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, and he smiled and sighed, "This kind of crazy refining method was once popular on the mainland!" Ha~ really worthy of being the disciple of that old guy. β
Mu Shi sat down one meter away from the medicine tripod, closed his eyes, and the special perception belonging to the divine soul was transmitted through the golden villain in the sea of knowledge, slowly enveloping the entire medicine tripod, and began to sense the situation of more than a dozen medicinal materials.
Dan Yiche was also in a similar process, and the second part of refining medicinal materials began.
Mu Shi refined more than a dozen medicinal materials at one time, although the overall refining speed was shortened, but there were many things that needed to be paid attention to each time, and it could not be compared with the speed of Dan Yiche refining one medicinal material at a time.
After a while, Dan Yi Che retrieved the refined medicinal materials, glanced at the situation on Mu Shi's side, and saw that everything was developing smoothly, and his eyes couldn't help but flash with a strange brilliance.
When Dan Yiche refined the tenth medicinal material, Mu Shi opened his eyes unhurriedly, and with a light wave towards the medicine ding, more than a dozen flames wrapped in the refined medicinal powder and liquid flew out, floating quietly in front of Mu Shi. Mu Shi counted it, was very satisfied, and took out the jade box and packed them one by one.
After all, he didn't have the strength of Cangxi, and he couldn't use flames to preserve them to the greatest extent while refining medicine.
"She, she, she, she really succeeded!"
"Have you counted?! How many flames came out just now! β
"I counted! Fourteen flowers! β
"Shhh The surrounding spectators gasped, they were actually more than Dan Yiche by four medicinal materials, if it was accumulated, Dan Yiche would be thrown away by the other party for a lot of time in the refining ring.
Dan Yiche bit his lip, also noticed this problem, looked at the medicine tripod with a solemn look, and finally showed a look of determination, and under Mu Shi's interest, he took out the most easily refined medicinal herb and threw it into the medicine tripod.
The turquoise flame split in two, and the temperature of the flames that came out of the void was subtly different, flexibly enveloping the herbs thrown in. Seeing that the medicinal materials were fine, Dan Yiche also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, it was successful the first time." Mu Shi did not hesitate to praise that this young man was really the material of an alchemist. If he can solve the problem caused by his eyes, maybe the human race will have a second Cangxi.
Dan Yiche's face flushed slightly, and he said embarrassedly, "I also have the mentality of giving it a try, and if I fail, I won't try it for the time being." β
"But if you only refine one more medicinal herb, it's still hard to catch up with me?" Mu Shi reminded with a smile.
Dan Yiche was a little troubled, and said helplessly, "I can't eat fat in one go, and now it is impossible to completely catch up with you in terms of refining speed, so I can only try my best to shorten the distance." β
Mu Shi secretly appreciated, not arrogant or impatient, no wonder Ochre Academy cared about him so much, it was indeed worth investing and cultivating. So Mu Shi didn't say anything anymore, and once again took out ten kinds of medicinal materials and put them into the medicine tripod, and started the second round of refining.
