Chapter 54: The Champion
Minutes and seconds passed.
For many people, this kind of time is very difficult, so the next day, there were not many people outside the square.
However, for Ye Chen and the other alchemists who participated in the competition, they had already fallen into a state of selflessness at this time, and they did not pay attention to the changes in the outside world at all.
After a full day and a half, the refining of all the medicinal materials of the Elixir was finally completely completed, and after a day and night of scorching by the spark, several medicinal materials finally gradually weakened their respective rejection, and finally began to merge.
This step is also the most critical step!
Taking a deep breath, Ye Chen ignored the sweat that had oozed from his forehead, and the huge soul power spread out in an instant, enveloping the entire medicine tripod, and he stubbornly observed the subtle changes in the pill liquid in the flames, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.
At this time, there were not many contestants left in the square, after all, there were not many who could refine the five-rank pill, and the fourth-grade pill would not last so long at all.
"Sure enough! That silver flame boy was also a refining five-grade pill! Song Lian had been paying attention to Ye Chen's every move during this time, and at this point, he also saw that the grade of the pill medicine refined by the other party was definitely not low.
"Lao Lu, what kind of identity do you say the young man will be?" After pondering for a long time, Song Lian still couldn't help but ask his old buddy.
Lu Chen glanced at him directly, and said angrily: "I know this!" ”
"But judging by the alchemist badge he is wearing, and he is still so young, it can't be a genius of the Ye family, right?"
Of course, this was just Lu Chen's casual remarks. In his heart, he didn't quite believe that the people of the Ye family would travel thousands of miles to their Xuantian City to participate in some kind of alchemist conference......
That's all self-surrender!
However, his words touched Song Lian's heart a little, and a pair of eyes had completely narrowed.
"I said Old Monster Song, you won't take it seriously, will you?" As an old friend for decades, Lu Chen knows the old friend around him too well.
In this situation, it is obvious that Song Lian is taking his words seriously!
"Why can't you take it seriously?" Song Lian asked rhetorically.
"You should also know that when that ancestor of the Ye family died, Danta sent Elder Mu Rongmu to mourn, right?"
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I know." However, Ye Xun, the ancestor of the Ye family, was one of the eight elders of Danta before his death, and when he died, Danta naturally couldn't be taken lightly. ”
Song Lian immediately smiled and said, "That's right." When I went to Danta a few years ago, I had the good fortune to meet Elder Mu once, and I had heard from the other party that the Ye family's generation seemed to have produced a demonic disciple, and his talent was so strong that even Elder Mu was amazed......
"In this case, it makes sense that the young man in front of him is a child of the Ye family!"
"Makes sense!" Lu Chen went back directly. "I heard that the demon of the Ye family is only thirteen or fourteen years old, and now it is estimated that he is still working hard in the Ye family to cultivate alchemy, how could he run to our Xuantian City!"
Song Lian smiled, and he wasn't angry, he just said it casually.
He naturally knew that the genius of the Ye family would not appear here, after all, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, if he could become a fifth-grade alchemist, it would not be so simple to describe it as a demon!
……
……
Fusion is the most important step in alchemy, as long as there is a slight mistake during the period, the medicinal materials that have been refined will be burned in an instant, Ye Chen's failure before was because of this reason, so at this step, he did not dare to have the slightest distraction.
But fortunately, Ye Chen's luck was good this time, the worst situation did not appear, after a full half of a day of fusion, a red pill prototype finally slowly took shape in the medicine tripod!
At the moment when this elixir was formed, everyone around them clearly felt that the surrounding heaven and earth energy suddenly fluctuated, as if a boulder had been thrown into the calm lake, and the waves were surging.
Five-pin pills!
This kind of movement, except for the two ancestors of Song and Lu, other alchemists also reacted.
Many of the contestants who had refined the fourth-grade alchemist couldn't help but look in Ye Chen's direction at this time......
Although he knew that he would not be able to win the championship after refining the four-grade pill, before, there would be a glimmer of hope in everyone's hearts.
But now that someone's five-pin pill is about to come out, then they will directly lose their qualification to compete for the championship.
I don't know how many people are secretly praying in their hearts for Ye Chen's failure at this time.
It's a pity that there doesn't seem to be any gods in this world who can fulfill their wishes, so they can only watch Ye Chen get closer and closer to the last Cheng Dan.
As time passed, the rudimentary shape of the red elixir, which was somewhat irregularly shaped, gradually became rounded, and a brilliant light emanated from it, rendering it like a ruby.
At the moment when the elixir erupted with brilliant light, a circle of energy ripples like substance, with the medicine tripod as the center, continued to surge out in all directions, and the continuous momentum was quite spectacular.
"It worked!" Looking at the familiar pillar of red light rising from above the medicine pod, Ye Chen suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.
Unexpectedly, the Interpretation Spirit Pill refined this time was actually successful at one time!
At the same time, there was also a strong energy fluctuation in the other corner of the square......
Taking out a white jade medicine bottle, carefully filling the spirit elixir that he had successfully refined, and then placing it on the alchemy table, Ye Chen couldn't help but turn his head to look in the direction where the energy fluctuations came from.
"Sure enough, it's him......"
Ye Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the young alchemist who was suspected to be Song Qing, and smiled slightly in his heart.
It seems that in this alchemist conference, his opponent is the guy opposite.
"Looking at the energy fluctuations, the five-grade pill refined by the other party is definitely not simple, but it is estimated that it is even worse than my Interpretation Spirit Pill......"
Although not all pills are as big as possible when they become pills, at least this is the simplest criterion for judging.
Just like Song Lian and the two on the rostrum now, their expressions are a little dignified at this time.
"Old Monster Song, the elixir refined by your grandson doesn't seem to be as good as that silver flame kid, it seems that he is going to lose......" Lu Chen's tone was deep with a hint of schadenfreude, and he turned his head to Song Lian and said.
Song Lian frowned, and his heart was also a little heavy.
"The Four Purple Yang Pills that Song Qing refined this time are five-grade high-grade pills, I didn't expect to be weaker than the other party, could it be that this kid is refining a five-grade peak pill?!"
Thinking of this, Song Lian still felt a little incredible in his heart!
