Lingshui City is located in a medium-sized town in the middle of the Lingyun Empire, and there is nothing particularly attractive about this seemingly quaint town.

But the streets of Lingshui City are full of people coming and going. There is no other reason, but because the alchemy conference held by the Danyu will be held here today.

Walking on the streets, you can see alchemists wearing all kinds of alchemy suits, as well as spiritual vein healers.

Xiao Ling walked on the street, raised his eyes, and eight of the ten people here had a very strong spiritual vein aura.

Some sighed that the influence of the alchemy conference was so great, and at the same time, there was a glimmer of hope in their hearts.

After resting for the night yesterday, Xiao Ling had temporarily suppressed the previous incident in his heart, about what happened after he was hit by the black qi released by the arrogant old demon, in fact, he was also confused, and he didn't understand what happened at all.

However, it doesn't matter, deep in his heart, there is a faint feeling that this matter will be clarified sooner or later, as for the woman who appeared in his dream and the person who rescued him, it should be the same person in Xiao Ling's opinion.

And the most suspicious is naturally the woman named Mengxin among the three people I met before.

I had heard the conversation between the three of them before, and it seemed that the purpose of this time was also Lingshui City, and it might not be long before they met.

While thinking about it, Xiao Ling followed someone to the central square of Lingshui City, and according to his inquiry, this was where the assessment of the alchemy conference was located.

The assessment lasted for three days, and during these three days, the person in charge of the Dan Domain would be responsible for assessing all the alchemists and spirit vein healers who came to the alchemy conference.

After passing, you will get a certificate, and after three days, you will pass this certificate to participate in the real alchemy conference.

Looking at the lively scene of overcrowding in the square, Xiao Ling frowned slightly, slowly exhaled, and sighed: "With so many people, when will you wait?"

After observing for a while, seeing that there were more and more people in the square, and there was no sign of decreasing, Xiao Ling thought about it, anyway, there were three days in total, so he was not in a hurry, so Suo turned around and left, and came back on the third day.

I guess by that time, it shouldn't be as crowded as it is today.

Of course, the most important thing is that Xiao Ling searched carefully above the square just now, but she didn't find Mengxin and Mengting.

This made Xiao Ling slightly disappointed, and a suspicion rose in his heart, didn't the three of them come to Lingshui City to participate in the alchemy conference? However, in addition to Yun Fan of the Supreme Temple, he could indeed feel a not weak spiritual vein aura from the other two women.

In the next two days, Xiao Ling also wandered around Lingshui City to see if he could meet Mengxin and the others, but the result was a big disappointment.

Xiao Ling didn't know why she was so concerned about Mengxin, who had only met once, but she had a faint feeling in her heart, as if something unknown had happened between him and Mengxin during the two days he was in a coma.

But what it was, Xiao Ling couldn't remember.

The most important point is that during the two days of his coma, the dream he had was so real that even he couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality. That's why Xiao Ling is so obsessed with knowing the truth.

Soon, the third day of the assessment was almost over, and Xiao Ling came to the square, compared to the previous two days, the alchemists and spirit vein healers gathered here today were relatively much better.

After a short time, it was finally Xiao Ling's turn.

At this moment, an old man with eyebrows and white hair sitting in front of Xiao Ling was wearing a loose white alchemy suit, and a strangely shaped mark was printed on the chest of his clothes.

Xiao Ling took a closer look and found that what was on the mark was an alchemy furnace with a very strange shape, the alchemy furnace was turquoise all over, there was no lid above the Ding furnace, only a misty elixir. The imprint is so delicate that it looks like it's in real life.

Xiao Ling was amazed when she saw that a small mark could have such a magical ability.

"Young man, are you also here to participate in this alchemy conference?"

Just as Xiao Ling looked at the old man in front of him, the latter also glanced at Xiao Ling slightly, and then asked in a flat tone.

When Xiao Ling heard this, she came back to her senses, then nodded and said, "Yes, what is the topic of this assessment?"

"Are you an alchemist or a spirit vein martial artist?" the old man asked lightly.

"Alchemist. ”

The old man nodded and said, "Then hand over the pill you have refined to me and let me see it, as long as the pill you have refined passes the standard of this assessment, you will be considered to have passed." ”

In fact, regarding the topic of the assessment, the alchemy conference is almost the same in every session, which Xiao Ling has long learned from the old madman, and he just confirmed it again just now.

Hearing the old man say this, Xiao Ling didn't procrastinate, and directly took out the Blood Lotus Pill that had been prepared from his arms and handed it to the old man.

The old man glanced at the small jade box in Xiao Ling's hand slightly, felt the rich medicinal fragrance emanating from it, nodded slightly, and said, "This rich medicinal fragrance alone is enough to prove that the elixir in this jade box is at least a pill of five grades or more." ”

Listening to the old man's words, Xiao Ling secretly said in his heart, before he saw the pill, he could judge the grade of the pill by the little medicinal fragrance, and he was worthy of being a person from the Dan Domain.

Gently opening the small jade box, a more intense medicinal fragrance instantly diffused out. The old man's face, which had always been unwavering, suddenly became a little surprised.

And when he saw the appearance of the pill, he immediately frowned unconsciously.

Looking at the pill in his hand repeatedly, the old man nodded for a while, shook his head for a while, and couldn't tell what his reaction was.

Xiao Ling stood in front of the old man, looking at the old man's reaction with a puzzled face, and his heart was slightly hairy.

Just when Xiao Ling was secretly guessing in his heart, the old man suddenly raised his head, his eyes revealed a gleam, and asked, "Young man, did you refine this elixir?"

"Naturally, is there any problem?" Xiao Ling replied.

The old man shook his head, then frowned and asked, "Judging from my experience, this should be a five-grade Blood Lotus Pill, right?"

"The old man has a good eye, this is indeed a Blood Lotus Pill. Xiao Ling said with a smile.

"Don't compliment me, forgive my clumsiness, this pill does look like it has nothing to do with the Blood Lotus Pill, but no matter from the fetal movement light on the surface of the pill or the medicinal fragrance it emits, it doesn't look like a five-grade pill. ”

After a pause, the old man continued, "To be exact, this should be a six-rank pill." ”

Xiao Ling naturally knew all this, and he didn't intend to hide it, in order to be able to pass the assessment, he immediately said truthfully: "That's right, although I refined this Blood Lotus Pill according to the steps on the formula, several of the spirit grasses in it have been replaced by other spirit grasses, and the amount of ingredients used has also changed. ”

"This ...... What you said is true?" the old man suddenly became a little excited when he heard this.

In the three-day assessment stage, the old man has seen countless pills, and some of them are well-qualified alchemists who are five or six grade pills as soon as they make a move.

In the same way, he naturally knew that this was just a simple assessment, and there would be no surprises in the three days.

However, at this moment, the Blood Lotus Pill in his hand had brought him a lot of shock, to be exact, it should be Xiao Ling's words just now, which brought too much shock to the old man.

Just like the old madman at the beginning when he learned about Xiao Ling's alchemy process, the old man's hands holding the mutated blood lotus pill at this moment couldn't help but tremble with excitement.

Several other persons in charge of the assessment on the side also walked over suspiciously when they saw the movement here.

"Lao Lin, what's wrong?

An old man dressed the same and of a similar age came to the two of them, patted the excited old man's shoulder, glanced at Xiao Ling, and immediately asked.

Seeing this, the old man known as Lao Lin couldn't help but take the old man's hand and said excitedly: "Old Qin, come and see what this is." ”

Lao Qin looked at the Blood Lotus Pill refined by Xiao Ling suspiciously, and then said casually: "It's just a five-grade Blood Lotus Pill, what's so strange about this, let me tell you, just now there was a young alchemist who made a move with a six-grade Purple Fire Pill, I think the quality and color of the Purple Fire Pill are excellent, presumably that young man will definitely have a good performance in the next alchemy conference." ”

"If you take a closer look, what kind of Purple Fire Pill is a fart compared to this pill in my hand. Seeing that his friend was so ignorant of his discovery, Lao Lin couldn't help but burst into foul language.

When Lao Qin heard this, he was stunned, he had rarely seen his friend lose his temper like this, so he couldn't help but look at the Blood Lotus Pill a few more times.

Suddenly, that old Qin's old eyes suddenly widened, staring at the small pill with some incredulity, and muttered to himself, "This...... It's ......"

Seeing his friend's surprised appearance, Lao Lin couldn't help but smile proudly, and then said, "What's the matter?

"Tell me, tell me, what the hell is going on?"

Hearing this, Lao Lin did not continue to hang his appetite, but simply talked about the matter.

After listening, the old man named Lao Qin stared at Xiao Ling in front of him with a pair of old eyes, and it seemed that Xiao Ling was a delicious fat sheep in his eyes, and he couldn't wait to swallow him immediately.

Looking at the two old men, who were almost two hundred years old together, looking at him with a hungry and thirsty look, Xiao Ling couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

"These two old men don't have a habit of breaking their sleeves, right?" Xiao Ling speculated maliciously in his heart.

"I said, can I pass the assessment?" Xiao Ling asked in a low voice.

"Can't!"

The two old men came back to their senses and replied in unison.
