Chapter 148: Once

"Wait." Liu Ling turned around, stared at the place where Xiao Yan disappeared before, smiled softly, and muttered in a low voice: "I will make him ashamed of himself at the conference, the disciple of King Dan is the most outstanding person in the Gama Empire." ”

Early the next morning, Xiao Yan, under the leadership of Steward Zhao, came to the Alchemist Guild again.

Tomorrow is the official start time of the pill conference, and there will be an internal test today.

Along the way, Xiao Yan was a little stunned, on some of the main streets in the middle of the city, there were already heavily armed troops patrolling.

Obviously, this is because the Alchemist Conference is about to be held, after all, for such a huge event, the security measures are naturally sufficient.

Slowly walking through a few spacious streets, the huge Alchemist Guild finally appeared in sight, looking at the doorway that was more crowded than two days ago, Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly.

It seems that alchemists from all over the country, and even alchemists from other countries, want to make a name for themselves at this conference.

Walking down from the carriage, there was the signboard of the Nalan family, and Xiao Yan approached the gate of the guild smoothly.

Just about to enter the guild through the VIP passage, there was a sudden commotion not far behind him, and the eyes of the surrounding people were projected.

"Huh? What's wrong? Frowning slightly, he turned his head around, and Xiao Yan looked at the source of the commotion.

A blue flame beast pulled a silver-white carriage, and a snow-white jade slender hand reached out from the carriage, elegantly holding the handle at the door, and then, a beautiful shadow slowly walked out and appeared in everyone's sight.

The person who appeared, wearing a purple robe inlaid with silver lines, with a delicate appearance, revealing a touch of innate noble temperament, her age did not seem to be very large, about seventeen or eighteen years old, and she looked about the same as Xiao Yan.

This girl, who seems to be very ladylike, has a strange smile flashing in her eyes, and it is clear that this is not a lord who likes to be quiet as it seems.

Steward Zhao said in a low voice: "This is the little princess Yue'er of the royal family, and the master is Chemir, the vice president of the Alchemist Guild, and he has already been admitted to the third-grade alchemist last year. It is the treasure of the royal family, and it is also one of the favorites to win the championship this year. ”

Hearing the words of the old housekeeper, Xiao Yan could only mourn in silence for the little princess, because no matter if you are a third-grade or even a fourth-grade, for Xiao Yan, who has a different fire and sixth-grade soul power, and a fourth-grade peak alchemy, they are all cannon fodder.

Without paying much attention to anything, Xiao Yan took the lead in entering the Alchemist Guild.

Follow the old butler to a spacious inner hall with quite classical decoration, at this time, in the inner hall, there are some people standing in twos and threes, Xiao Yan's eyes swept over these people, and he was a little stunned, many of these people who looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old were actually at the level of a third-grade alchemist.

Not long after, the little princess of the empire and Liu Ling, who had been seen at the gate earlier, also walked in.

"Young Master Xiao Yan, I can't accompany you for the rest." Steward Zhao bowed down and said.

"Excuse me, lead the way."

"Don't bother, I wish Young Master Xiao Yan a victory."

After bidding farewell to the old housekeeper, Xiao Yan didn't plan to communicate with these people, he leaned back against the wall and closed his eyes to recuperate, waiting for the start of the project.

"Huh? That was the housekeeper of the Nalan family just now, who was the person who didn't wear the alchemist's robe? He shouldn't be on the list. Can you still come in through the back door? Master Otto of Black Rock City asked.

Hearing this, Vice President Chemir shook his head and said, "I don't know, I heard that I came in through the influence of Nalan Ji, and it seems that I haven't even assessed the level of an alchemist." ”

"Haven't been assessed yet? I guess they were sent to see the world. ”

Hearing this, Chemir didn't say much, moved his gaze to the people below, and pointed to the left side of the hall, where many black curtains hung down on the walls: "Behind each curtain, there is a separate small room, which is your examination room. ”

"As we all know, the refining of medicinal materials is an extremely important step in refining pills, and our test this time is to focus on your refining of medicinal materials."

"On the table in each small room, the medicinal materials for the test are ready, and all you need to do is to refine the medicinal materials to the maximum purity you can achieve before the hourglass is finished."

Hearing the voice of the vice president, Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes, looked at those small rooms, and casually chose the nearest one and walked in.

When Xiao Yan lifted the black cloth and walked in, a stone platform appeared in front of Xiao Yan, on top of the stone platform, there was an hourglass, as well as pieces of black charcoal-like medicinal materials.

Picking up the medicinal herbs, Xiao Yan muttered in a low voice: "I see, it is a low-grade medicinal material commonly used in refining second-grade healing pills, the Black Iron Spirit Leaf, this thing is very resistant to scorching and refining, and it requires a strong fire control ability to control it accurately." ”

Seeing this thing, Xiao Yan shrugged his shoulders, it was not very difficult for him, and after snorting, he pursed his lips, and after taking out five alchemy furnaces, he threw the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire and the Black Iron Spirit Leaf into the alchemy furnace.

With a whirring sound, Xiao Yan directly soared the temperature of the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire to the maximum instantly. With such a high temperature, let alone refining, it can directly burn the Black Iron Spirit Leaf into ashes.

At the moment when the Black Iron Spirit Leaf came into contact with the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire and was about to be burned to ashes, Xiao Yan's hands controlled the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire as if he were manipulating a puppet.

At the moment when the Black Iron Spirit Leaf was about to burn to ashes, a thousandth of a second, wisps of cyan fire quickly passed through the Black Iron Spirit Leaf that was burned and destroyed, and the medicinal essence in the Black Iron Spirit Leaf was extracted in an instant.

In just the blink of an eye, the black iron spirit leaves in the alchemy furnace turned into ashes. If Xiao Yan was a little slower, he would be burned along with the medicinal properties.

The focus of this technique is to use ultra-high speed to destroy medicinal materials, and then perceive a critical point through soul power, and use soul power to bring out the essence of the medicine extremely quickly at the limit of the medicinal materials' shattering.

This requires not only a powerful flame, but also an extremely strong soul power, which can be seen through along with the medicinal properties of the medicine.

After taking out a wooden box from Na Ring and putting the medicinal powder inside, Xiao Yan turned around and left 0

It doesn't even add up to a minute.

Seeing that Xiao Yan had only come out in a minute, there were even some alchemists who had been grinding and grinding in the hall and had not entered.

Vice President Chemir smiled and said, "Little brother, you don't have to deliberately come out to see the hourglass in the hall, there is also an hourglass inside, which is synchronized with the hourglass in the hall." The hourglass is all refining time before the leakage, and the purity check will start after the leak, so you don't need to worry. ”

It could be heard that the vice president thought that Xiao Yan was too nervous and didn't understand the rules and ran out to ask.

Xiao Yan took out the wooden box, looked sleepy-eyed, and said listlessly: "I have finished refining." ”

"You've finished refining ????!!" Both the referees, Chemir and Master Otto, exclaimed.

Otto asked, "How many times have you refined?" ”

"How many times? Once. ”
