Chapter 148: Overtaking
It was late at night.
"How long will it be, I'm sleepy!" Yun Xi yawned, buried her head on Lan You's shoulder and began to doze off.
Ling Shuang, Yu Qingxuan, Yang Ying, and Xiao Mingyue, the four beautiful fairies who came to accompany the elders to eat, play and accompany the alchemy according to the orders of the elder group, although they did not have any intention of being tired and sleepy, they all felt a little bored, and they all meditated with their eyes half-closed, and occasionally opened their eyes to see the movements of the two of them in alchemy.
Time passed in a flash, and by the time Yun Xi was suddenly awakened by the exclamations and noises, the sky had already begun to turn white.
"What, is the game over?" Yun Xi rubbed her eyes and looked up in surprise.
"It's still early!" Lan You's voice was slightly cold.
Yun Xi sighed and went to look at Han Qing and Xu Chen, and suddenly his eyes lit up and his face was full of surprise: "Wow, Xu Daoyou has surpassed Senior Brother Han!" ”
At this time, there were still five flavors of elixir left in front of Xu Chen, and there were still six flavors of elixir left in front of Han Qing.
Fang Cai's exclamation and uproar were the commotion of onlookers caused by Xu Chen's overtaking.
In other words, after a night of catching up, Xu Chen finally caught up and overtook around dawn.
However, at this time, the state of both of them seems to be less calm and relaxed than yesterday, although their breath is still very stable, but they are obviously very tired.
Han Qing's face was pale, and the Dao robe on his back was soaked with sweat.
Xu Chen looked slightly better, but beads of sweat kept dripping down his face.
When the alchemy came to this point, the two of them were no longer extremely bothered, but went all out to put all their minds on refining the elixir.
Because as more and more elixirs were refined in the Dan Furnace, the formation had almost been activated to the limit, every movement had to be careful, the divine sense had to be divided into dozens of fine controls, and in addition, a large amount of vital energy had to be continuously input to maintain the stability of the spiritual fire, and there was almost no energy to pay attention to the movements outside.
And the last few elixirs are also the most valuable and difficult varieties to refine, requiring great patience and time, and the energy, vitality and time consumed are also multiplied.
At present, it will take at least nearly half an hour to refine a medicine.
In other words, it will take at least two to three hours to refine all the remaining medicines.
Although they waited for a day and a night, except for Kai Yunxi, almost all the onlookers were engrossed in not taking their eyes off for a moment, and they all stared intently at the two Dan furnaces with tumbling Dan Qi, and they were all in a state of turmoil.
The rich medicinal fragrance filled the entire square, and everyone's spirits were clearly and excitedly stimulated by this medicinal fragrance.
Xu Chen was the same, he could deeply feel the magic of the Seven Divine Pills through the medicinal fragrance, which made him more and more interested in this strange elixir.
Even if he loses this game, he definitely earns it.
This Dan Fang alone is enough to be worth a ticket price, and it makes him feel a kind of joy when he returns with a full load.
Half an hour passed, the gray sky was getting brighter and brighter, and the red morning glow was already appearing in the east.
Xu Chen suddenly hooked his senses, and threw another elixir into the Dan furnace.
"Wow~"
Hundreds of onlookers instantly burst into a violent commotion.
Xu Chen's alchemy speed was still orderly, and he actually surpassed the two-flavor elixir.
Han Qing's face became more and more pale, and his body couldn't help but tremble lightly a few times.
And this kind of unstable mind brought about the spiritual fire getting out of control again, but it was a strong divine consciousness and vitality that suddenly appeared, helping him suppress the furnace fire, and the restless Dan furnace quickly regained calm after a few light shakes.
Xu Chen was completely speechless.
This is the third time Biyunzi has helped Han Qing.
But he didn't even have a trace of ridicule and sarcasm at this time.
Because he also did not dare to be distracted in the slightest.
The only thing that made him feel a little comforted was that although Biyunzi was shameless, he didn't make a move on him and interfered with his alchemy process, which could be regarded as the last trace of respect he retained for Biyunzi.
On the top of the steps, a row of old Taoist priests twitched slightly, and buried their heads lower.
In the main hall, Bi Yunzi was as immovable as a shrine statue, with neither shame nor joy, he had long been disappointed in Han Qing.
According to the current situation, Han Qing had already lost this alchemy competition.
But in order to lose less ugly, as long as this furnace Dan is finally refined, it can still retain a trace of face for Dantang.
Although he also wanted to interfere with Xu Chen, he finally held back.
Although Yi Zhen left, it did not mean that the core disciples of the other rows in the onlookers were completely dumb.
In addition, from the beginning of the competition, from the beginning to the end, there were several divine senses of the elders of the Dan Yuan Realm who fell in the Dan Hall, always paying attention to the progress of the competition.
If he tore his face and did this, he would provoke Xu Chen to give up helping the Yuqing Hall to refine the pill, and in the end, this black cauldron would inevitably be firmly buckled on his head, and the identity of the second elder would definitely not be able to resist the anger of Bai Yun Zhenjun.
The sun rises and then slowly rises into the sky.
Xu Chen had finally finished refining the last elixir, while Han Qing still had two elixirs left.
But even so, this game was not exactly enough to give Xu Chen the lead to the final victory.
Although the next Hedan Fen Dan Yang Dan is much easier, it still takes two days, and the test is not over.
Therefore, Xu Chen took a deep breath, turned over his hand and took out a five-inch green jade bottle, and poured a drop of emerald green liquid into his mouth.
With the entrance of the spiritual liquid, it suddenly turned into a rolling vitality and directly merged into the dantian, quickly restoring nearly thirty percent of his depleted vitality.
Xu Chen's movements did not surprise too many people.
Because before that, Han Qing had already swallowed two drops of spiritual liquid one after another.
And Xu Chen insisted on it for a whole day and a night before starting to take it, which shows that the gap between the two is very huge.
Although the spiritual liquid is precious, it is still quite common in the Yuqing Palace, and the personal transmission and core disciples can receive some every month.
However, there are also sharp-eyed people who can see that this bottle of spiritual liquid seems to be a product of the Yuqing Palace.
Yun Xi poked Lan You lightly and asked in a low voice, "Senior Sister Lan, did you send this spiritual liquid?" ”
Lan You blushed instantly, but he didn't lie, but hummed softly.
The conversation between the two was naturally heard by the four female cultivators, and their expressions were even more strange, and they secretly exchanged eyebrows, as if they were surprised.
The spiritual liquid, produced in the spiritual essence in the depths of the spiritual stone mine, the amount is very small, it takes several days to form a drop, there are two spiritual stone mines in the Yuqing Palace, and the spiritual liquid produced every month is only one catty, mainly twenty core disciples, and the rest of the personal disciples can also get some, in addition, it takes great merit to exchange.
Although several of them have good qualifications, they are all personal disciples of several Danyuan Realm elders, but they can't be compared with Lan You, and they haven't entered the ranking of core disciples, so the distribution of spiritual fluid obtained is naturally pitiful, and they may be able to get one, two, two or two in a year.
Lan You not only let Xu Chen stay in his own Taoist Academy, but also gave Xu Chen such a precious qi-replenishing elixir, which shows that the relationship between the two is no longer as simple as that of ordinary Taoist friends.
As a result, several female cultivators naturally began to burn with gossip, and their curiosity about Xu Chen became more and more intense.
It is completely unreasonable why a minor monk who is no more than the Kaiyuan Realm has such a powerful divine soul and a strong reserve of incredible vitality.
The four of them rarely go out, almost all the year round in the mountain gate to cultivate, even if they go down the mountain to practice, they are also in a few regular areas near the Yuqing Palace, the changes in the Black Wind Ridge, they naturally have heard a lot, but they have never been there, for some rumors of Xu Chen, although they have also heard of it, but none of them have the personal experience of being born and dying like Lan You, so naturally they don't know why Xu Chen is so different.
Xu Chen's Dan furnace began to shake, faintly emitting the sound of wind and thunder.
After the Hedan formation was activated, as the vortex of Yuan Qi began to rotate rapidly at the bottom of the Dan furnace, the elixir that had been refined one after another began to be thrown into the vortex under the traction of the divine sense, and under the baking of the spiritual fire, it slowly converged into a colorful spiritual light, and a richer medicinal fragrance began to emanate from the Dan furnace.
Han Qing's mood became more and more anxious, his forehead was sweating profusely, and after hurriedly completing the refining of the elixir, he hurriedly threw the elixir into the Dan furnace again.
Ever since Xu Chen caught up with his progress, his emotions had begun to spiral out of control.
And after Xu Chen surpassed the progress, he was almost unable to stabilize his mind, if it weren't for Elder Biyunzi's continuous suppression, he wouldn't have known how many elixirs he had refined, let alone three groups of medicinal materials, even if there were five groups of six groups, it was estimated that he would not be able to continue at the moment.
"Stabilize your mind, don't be impatient, don't ask to win, but to finish your work!"
In Han Qing's ears, there was Biyunzi's voice of neither joy nor sadness.
For the best four generations of disciples in this Dan Hall, Bi Yunzi was completely speechless.
If it weren't for this game, Han Qing's performance would still be remarkable.
But during the game, his weakness of instability was undoubtedly revealed.
At this time, Bi Yunzi also knew that he couldn't force Han Qing, and he didn't even dare to have a tone of reprimand, once Han Qing's emotions were completely out of control, this furnace of Dan refining was still in the second, and this competition provoked by Dantang would be completely lost, and there would be no chance to save face.
