Chapter 39: The Tattoo and the Fryer (4,000 words)

"The second level of assessment, Dan Dao!"

"Within one day, if the elixir is successfully refined, it will be considered to have passed the assessment!"

"Let's start the lot!"

As soon as the Earth Spirit's voice fell, a huge water shield rose up, emitting a soft light of aqua blue, bright but not dazzling. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the water cover, twelve balls of light fluttered in it, like butterflies fluttering. If you look closely, you will definitely find that the surface of the light ball is engraved with beautiful patterns, and the pattern of each light ball is different.

According to the number of people who passed the chess path assessment, the twelve balls of light corresponded to the twelve monks, and each ball of light represented an elixir.

There was once a monk who whimsically thought that if he could decipher the pattern on the ball of light and know the specific elixir based on the pattern, he would be able to prepare in advance.

This idea is beautiful, but unfortunately, no monk has studied the correspondence between the pattern and the elixir.

"According to the order of passing the chess assessment, the lottery will begin!"

"The first one, Xingmohe!"

As soon as the Earth Spirit's words fell, Xing Mohe's eyes were sharp, like an eagle falcon, staring at the twelve balls of light intently, unable to take his eyes off it. Eventually, his gaze fell on an inconspicuous ball of light, and there was excitement in his eyes.

According to Huang Xuanxuan's description in his previous life, it was this ball of light that he drew at that time, Xing Mohe licked his lips, and his heart couldn't help but be hot and pounding.

Xing Mohe pointed a little, and the ball of light that he had chosen fell into his eyebrows.

Yellow-level elixir - Gathering Spirit Pill, consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan, can improve the mana of the monks in the middle stage of foundation building.

When Xing Mohe saw that he needed to refine the Gathering Spirit Pill, his expression was relaxed, his eyebrows flew and the phoenix danced, everything was just as he had planned.

After the draw of lots in the Star Desert River, the blood-clothed man of the Blood Demon Sect stepped forward and randomly selected a ball of light, his face was still pale, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad.

The twelve monks who passed the chess assessment, one after another, completed the draw and left the last ball of light to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng looked at the pill he had chosen, his face was a little strange, it was actually the Ice Spirit Pill.

The Ice Spirit Pill was an indispensable step in refining the Earth Extreme Lotus Fire, and in order to obtain the Seven Leaf Xuan Ice Grass, the main material of the Ice Spirit Pill, he had to put a lot of effort into it. Originally, according to his plan, after obtaining the Earth Pole Lotus Fire and returning to the sect, he would first improve his alchemy skills, and then start refining the Ice Spirit Pill.

However, the plan could not be changed.

"Alas, I abstained!" Huang Xuanxuan said dejectedly.

Huang Xuanxuan's abstention immediately attracted everyone's attention, and the eyes that looked at him were full of doubts and regrets.

"What's wrong?" Lin Feng asked.

Huang Xuanxuan shrugged his shoulders and said: "Hehe, my alchemy is average, even if I participate in the assessment, it will definitely be a failure, it is better to quit early, you can save the elixir of alchemy!"

"Anyway, on this trip to the Extreme Valley, I got a Ding Spiritual Weapon Dan Furnace, and I am already very satisfied!"

Huang Xuanxuan's words seemed discouraged, but when he tasted it carefully, it resonated with many people.

The art of alchemy is very dependent on talent, and at most one out of ten people can become an alchemist, and if you want to go further on the Dan Dao, it is even more difficult.

"Old man...... Also abstain!" Zhou Lidao frowned slightly and said, it was not easy for them to cultivate casually, their resources were not as good as the disciples of the Eight Holy Lands, and the attainments in the Dan Dao were not even one-tenth of his chess Dao level.

"I also abstain!"

"Abstain!"

......

As Huang Xuanxuan took the lead in abstaining, it seemed to set off a wave of abstentions, and among the twelve people, there were actually six people who abstained, and half of the monks were lost in an instant.

The earth spirit looked at the abstaining monk with an expressionless face, and in his calm eyes, there was no wave in the ancient well.

"Dan Dao assessment, officially begins!"

As soon as the words of the earth spirit fell, the remaining six monks took out their own pills and elixirs and began to refine the pills.

Lin Feng checked the herbs in this storage ring and refined the elixir of the Ice Spirit Pill, he had prepared a lot of them before coming to the Earth Pole Valley, except for the main material, the Seven Leaf Xuanbing Grass.

"This Seven-Leaf Xuanbing Grass can only refine two furnaces of Ice Spirit Pill at most, so ...... There is only one chance left for me to practice!" Lin Feng's eyes flashed with a different color, and then he closed his eyes and carefully comprehended the Dan Fang of the Ice Spirit Pill.

"Yin Jujube...... Ice Grass ......"

It took a full hour for Lin Feng to know the Ice Spirit Pill's recipe well before he began refining the Ice Spirit Pill. With his attainments in alchemy, he quickly purified the auxiliary elixir, leaving only the main material Seven Leaf Xuanbing Grass that had not yet been purified.

With his right hand, he skillfully picked up the seven-leaf Xuanbing Grass and threw it into the Dan furnace. Under the scorching flames, the Seven Leaf Xuanbing Grass was not immediately melted into spiritual liquid, but instead emitted a rich cold aura, resisting the refining of the spiritual fire.

When Lin Feng saw this scene, he didn't worry, he knew that the grade of the Seven-Leaf Xuanbing Grass was quite high, and if he wanted to purify the Seven-Leaf Xuanbing Grass just by relying on his ordinary spiritual fire, he was afraid it would take two hours.

The ice-blue leaves of the Seven Leaf Xuanbing Grass trembled slightly, emitting a thick cold aura, colliding with the scorching flames, and erupting into a sizzling sound in the Dan Furnace.

An hour later, the rich cold air in the Dan furnace covered Lin Feng's figure in the thick mist, and it was not very real.

At this time, Xingmohe, which had the fastest alchemy speed, had already entered the most critical step in refining the Gathering Spirit Pill-Rong Dan.

"Give me fusion!"

Xing Mohe let out a low snort, his eyes burst out, and the power of the divine soul in the ancestral court was released without reservation, constantly monitoring the changes in the elixir.

A quarter of an hour later, the flames in the Dan furnace shook, and the Dan liquid that was becoming Dan was suddenly not under the control of Xingmohe, and it volatilized a burning smell.

"Failed!" Xing Mohe's voice was infarcted, and his tone was full of frustration, but the memory of five hundred years in his previous life had already made him exercise his will to persevere.

"Come again!"

After that, Xingmohe began the second alchemy.

Time passed bit by bit, and gradually, some monks withdrew from the assessment of the Dan Dao, some because it was too difficult to refine the elixir, and some because the elixir was exhausted.

In the end, only Lin Feng, Xingmohe, and the blood-clothed man of the Blood Demon Sect were left to continue the assessment of the Dan Dao.

"Failed again!" The blood-clothed man of the Bloody Demon Sect frowned, looking at Lin Feng and Xing Mohe, his eyes flickering, not knowing what trick he was preparing.

At this moment, Lin Feng, who hadn't moved for two hours, opened his eyes, and the cold air on his body gradually receded.

"Finally got the Seven Leaf Xuanbing Grass done!" Lin Feng let out a long breath, and the aura in his body stirred, melting the frost on his eyebrows.

"Now, it's time to start melting!"

Lin Feng's eyes became solemn, it was the first time he had refined the Ice Spirit Pill, and he couldn't afford to be careless.

The essence of various elixirs, under the control of his divine soul power, slowly moved closer to an ice crystal in the center of the Dan furnace, and this ice crystal was the essence of the seven-leaf Xuanbing Grass.

At this moment, a gloomy and cold aura climbed up Lin Feng's alchemy furnace, and then ...... Suddenly, it burst open.

"Oh no, it's going to be fried!"

The monks who watched this Dan Dao assessment saw the cracks on Lin Feng's alchemy furnace and exclaimed one after another, feeling sorry for Lin Feng.

Although their alchemy skills were mediocre, their eyesight was still there, and they could naturally see that among the remaining three, Lin Feng's alchemy was the highest. However, he didn't expect that Lin Feng, who had the highest alchemy, would actually encounter such trouble.

The cracks on the Dan furnace naturally couldn't escape Lin Feng's eyes, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly.

Now that he has just entered the Rong Dan, if the Rong Dan is close to completion, he can use his spiritual power to temporarily fix the Dan furnace and forcibly open the furnace for alchemy.

But not right now!

The only way left for him was to give up this alchemy.

After his face changed a few times, although Lin Feng was reluctant in his heart, he still gave up the results of this alchemy very decisively.

With a slap of his right hand, the Dan Furnace, which would explode at any time, was pushed high into the air by Lin Feng, and the cold and scorching aura erupted in the Alchemy Furnace at the same time.

Boom!

The alchemy furnace that had accompanied Lin Feng for five years, just like that, in front of everyone's eyes, turned into countless fragments and fell in the Earth Pole Hall.

"It's you!"

Lin Feng stood up abruptly, pointed at the blood-clothed man of the Blood Demon Sect, and glared angrily.

"It was you who did something to my Danding!"

As soon as Lin Feng's words came out, it immediately caused an uproar, and they all looked at the blood-clothed man of the Blood Demon Sect.

For Lin Feng's words, the onlookers and the disciples of the Seven Star Sword Sect subconsciously believed it. Because compared to the notorious Blood Demon Sect, it was obvious that Lin Feng's words were more credible.

A sneer appeared at the corner of the blood-clothed man of the Blood Demon Sect, and his eyes were like knives.

"Do you have proof?"

"If you don't have evidence, you can't talk nonsense!" the Bloody Demon Sect man said coldly, his previous small actions were quite hidden, even if Lin Feng knew that he did it, he had no evidence.

Lin Feng took a deep breath, suppressed the endless anger in his heart, and his face was extremely gloomy.

He didn't expect that the Blood Demon Sect would be so shameless, and in the midst of the light competition, it would actually use such despicable means.

"You're finished!"

"I'll keep an eye on you!" Lin Feng said viciously.

When the Blood Demon Sect man heard Lin Feng's threat, his face changed slightly, but he quickly calmed down. He was on par with Lin Feng, as long as he was prepared, he was not afraid of Lin Feng's threat.

Xing Mohe saw Lin Feng and the Blood Demon Sect fighting together, and an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Senior Earth Spirit, I'm worried that someone will inexplicably yin when refining the pill, so I hope to be able to arrange the formation and protect the Dan furnace!"

The earth spirit listened to Xingmohe's words, glanced at Lin Feng and the blood-clothed man of the Blood Demon Sect, and said lightly, "But!"

Hearing this, Xing Mohe didn't say a word, took out a white array disk, and between breaths, a complex formation was formed, emitting a gray light, covering all the scenes inside.

The curious monk swept it with his divine thoughts, wanting to see the scene in the formation, but found that as soon as the divine thoughts approached the formation, they would be ejected, and the scene in the formation could not be seen at all.

After arranging the formation, Xing Mohe let out a long sigh of relief, he arranged this formation, naturally not to prevent himself from being disturbed by Lin Feng and the others when he was alchemizing, but for another purpose......

In the middle of his thoughts, Xing Mohe took out a delicate brocade box from the storage ring, which was carved with exquisite patterns and exuded a faint fragrance.

If other monks saw it at this time, they would definitely exclaim that Xingmohe was a loser, and they actually used the precious agarwood as a wooden box, which was really a tyrannical thing.

Xing Mohe carefully opened the wooden box, revealing a dragon's eye-sized Gathering Spirit Pill, which was round and without the slightest fragrance.

However, on the surface of the elixir, a mysterious pattern hovered over it, as if it had been carved.

Danwen!

This pattern on the surface of the Gathering Spirit Pill is the famous Dan pattern in the immortal cultivation world.

According to the quality, the pill can be divided into three grades: upper, middle and lower, but above the top-grade pill, there is a higher quality pill, which is the Wendan.

Wen Dan, as the name suggests, is the panacea for the appearance of Dan patterns. According to the number of Dan patterns, there is a world of difference in the medicinal power and preciousness between the Dan lines, which are divided into nine patterns from high to low.

The medicinal power of the One Pattern Pill is the weakest and the most common, but even the worst One Pattern Pill is still very precious in the Nine Mountains and Thirteen Seas, at least ordinary casual cultivation, and one Pattern Pill will not be seen in a lifetime.

The same kind of pill, the medicinal power of a striped pill is five times stronger than that of a high-grade pill, which shows its preciousness.

As for the nine-pattern pill and the title of the elixir, there is only its legend for tens of thousands of years, and there is no clear statement so far. There are even some pessimistic monks who think that the nine-pattern Danzi is imaginary, and it is simply made up by the ancient monks.

Xing Mohe looked at the Qi Gathering Pill in the wooden box, and his heart was full of fire. Of course, it is impossible to refine this pattern pill with his alchemy technique, but he is relying on the Seven Star Sword Sect behind him, and the sect master himself speaks and asks the alchemy master of the sect to refine this one-pattern Qi Gathering Pill to ensure the smooth journey of this trip to the Earth Pole Palace.

As for Cheng Dan's vision, he has already been in place!

After thinking about it, Xingmohe threw this one-pattern Qi Gathering Pill into the alchemy furnace, closed his eyes and recuperated, and waited for the time to come, and the Wen Dan would appear.

......

After the blood-clothed man of the Blood Demon Sect began to refine the pill, Lin Feng sat cross-legged, his eyes calm, and he didn't see the anger he had before. But if you take a closer look, you will definitely be able to see Lin Feng constantly touching the Vermilion Bird Ring in his hand.

"Ten...... Nine...... Eight ......"

Lin Feng counted down silently in his heart, as the countdown got closer and closer, the Vermilion Bird Jian in his hand exuded a faint red glow, and the temperature became higher and higher, like a flame, able to ignite the void.

Three......

Two......

One!

Suddenly, Lin Feng opened his eyes and looked at the elixir beside the blood-clothed man.

Boom!

Those precious herbs actually ignited spontaneously, and suddenly a raging fire burned.

When the blood-clothed man saw this scene, his face immediately changed greatly, and the spiritual power in his body surged out, without reservation, wanting to extinguish the flames on the elixir.

However, his yin and soft spiritual power touched the flame on the elixir, like an oil droplet meeting a spark, and it was instantly burned.

As a last resort, the man in blood had to withdraw his spiritual power so as not to catch fire.

The short three breaths were so short in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of the man in blood, it seemed so long, he could only watch his elixir be burned by this strange flame.
