Chapter 914: The Contest Begins
Gou Wenxun heard this, the corners of his lips curled slightly, and after looking at Mu Xian's eyes, he said:
"Very good! The top three in this Genius Alchemist Competition, among the prizes will be the Nine Xuantian Heart Fruit, which is necessary for refining the Ten Thousand Years Life Extension Pill. I'm just thinking about refining a furnace of Ten Thousand Years Life Extension Pill, if you can advance to the top three of the competition, you can use the Nine Xuantian Heart Fruit to exchange it with me. If you can't, then please go back!"
"Nine Xuantian Heart Fruit!No problem!" Mu Xian nodded, but frowned again in the blink of an eye, "But the Genius Alchemist Contest will take seven days to end, and Ah Chou and his master are afraid that they won't survive that day." ”
"Don't worry, put people here with me, and I can protect them from death for seven days...... Just kill the soul and turn into poison, this seat is not in my eyes, I want to keep them alive, even if the Lord of Yama comes to rob it, I can't snatch it back. ”
"Thank you, senior!" Mu Xianyan was overjoyed when he heard this.
"Since you are allowed to participate, you can stay here for the next two days, there are some books on alchemy, you can take a look at them, don't let the foot basket be empty, and cause the empty seat to rejoice." ”
"Thank you seniors for your success, this grace is unforgettable. ”
Mu Xian bowed and saluted, knowing that this was Gou Wenxun's intention to help him.
After Chen Qi was put back to tell Master Lu, Gou Wenxun casually threw a few jade slips to Mu Xian and asked him to squat in the room next to him to watch slowly.
After Mu Xian entered, he took out a jade box, pinched a black elixir in half, put the big half into the purple-haired old man's mouth, and stuffed the small half into Ah Chou.
"You two are really lucky, Lao Tzu was poisoned by the soul destroying incarnation, but what was ushered in was the betrayal of his wife and the assassination of his brother, but some of you are willing to exchange holy weapons, for the sake of this kid, I will take your life...... Back then, thanks to Lao Tzu's life was too hard, he stayed up for seven days, and finally developed an antidote by himself...... Those idiot alchemists, using the Soul Rejuvenation Pill to detoxify the incarnation poison, don't you think it's overkill......"
......
What Master Gou handed over to Mu Xian were five jade slips. But the content of it made Mu Xian shocked.
The first one is called "Knowing Medicine", which records 300,000 kinds of god-level medicinal herbs.
The second is "Alchemy", which records more than 200 ways of alchemy.
The third is "Melting Rules", which tells about the thirty-six methods of smelting the rules of heaven and earth into pills.
The fourth is "Treasure Record". It records many cherished medicinal materials, methods of refining medicines, and strange stories about refining medicines.
The fifth is not called "The Road of the God of Medicine", but it is a strange book of inheritance, recording various things about the inheritance of the God of Medicine.
With Mu Xian's current spirit, it is almost ten lines at a glance, and he will never forget it. But if you want to read it all, I'm afraid it will take a few days.
Fortunately, he has the Sacred Throne, which was not only the guardian armor of the Void Heaven Guard, but also has a powerful light brain system, which can quickly record the contents of the jade slip.
Of course, only the text and picture content can be recorded, and the rhyme and rules of heaven and earth contained in it cannot be recorded by the light brain.
Mu Xian watched almost frantically, constantly absorbing these contents, but he didn't know it. Gou Wenxun was able to achieve a high-level medicine god precisely because of the inheritance of these five jade slips.
It can almost be said that these five jade slip inheritances contain all the knowledge of a high-level medicine god.
Compared with the inheritance of the medicine god that Mu Xian obtained in Jiuxiao Tower, the inheritance recorded by these jade slips is much more exhaustive, especially the more than 300,000 god-level medicinal herbs, which almost include more than ninety percent of the god-level elixirs in the earth realm.
......
Two days have passed in a blink of an eye.
Mu Xian was kicked awake by Master Gou, if he hadn't been holding the jade slip in the palm of his hand, the master really suspected that he was hiding in the corner and sleeping.
"I hope you can succeed, otherwise ......," Master Gou said unabashedly threatening. I wondered if I was looking at the wrong person.
"Don't worry, Master!" Mu Xian nodded briskly.
After contacting Master Shanglu and others, Mu Xian rushed to the competition square with the organization.
It is a large square with a length and width of several kilometers, which is thought to be divided into two hundred and fifty-six individual spaces. For the Alchemist competition.
Around the square is a huge auditorium with hundreds of thousands of seats, and the medicine gods of the alliance can watch for free, while the rest of the people need to buy tickets to enter.
At the gate of the competition, there were only four guards, but all four of them were Great Perfection Heavenly Gods!
The first thing that the contestants wear is the growth ring detector. It is a giant door-to-door device that can clearly detect the age of each contestant, and the error will not exceed two years.
However, with the solemnity of the conference, there are usually no overage people who come to mess around, but if this detector is not set up, there will be many people who will make trouble.
After passing through the detector, everyone will receive a jade plaque, and everyone will walk into a strange room shaped like a ball.
Outside the house, there was no more than a three-meter radius, but tens of thousands of people walked in before and after, but no one came out.
Mu Xian could see at a glance that this was a specially refined space system treasure, and the space inside was definitely not small.
He followed the contestants in front of him and walked in, only to feel that the space in front of him changed, and he appeared in a separate room.
Then a crisp voice sounded around him:
"The first level of the competition: identifying herbs. The time to complete the level is one hour. There are a thousand herbs to be identified in this level, and you need to judge or answer the main effects of the herb, and if you encounter an unrecognizable herb, you can choose to skip it and continue to identify the herbs behind. 10 points for more than 600 titles, 20 points for more than 700 titles, 50 minutes for more than 800 titles, 100 points for more than 850 titles, 150 points for more than 900 titles, 200 points for more than 950 titles, and 300 points for those who have fully identified the successful score, and they can directly advance to the finals. ”
"Don't you prevent someone from using the record jade slip?" Mu Xian asked strangely.
"Before the alchemist refines the medicine, he can query the record jade slip, so this level does not restrict the use of the record jade slip. ”
Mu Xian was slightly stunned, and then realized that it took a long time to query using the record jade slip, and the entire time to break through the level was only one hour, maybe you only found out a dozen kinds of herbs, and the time to break through the level had already arrived. Therefore, the restriction does not restrict the recording of jade slips, which does not have much impact on the fairness of the game.
"At the beginning of the level, please identify the first spirit grass. ”
As soon as the words fell, a spirit grass appeared in front of Mu Xian, knowing that it was fake, but he smelled its medicinal fragrance, and even felt the faint rhyme it emitted.
"Three-leaf green vine, seventh-order spiritual grass, sweet taste, peculiar fragrance, has the effect of detoxification, insect repellent, can refine nine-flower jade dew pill, Tianxiang Dan and other seventh- and eighth-order pills. Is that true?"
"Wrong!" Mu Xian shook his head decisively, "Trifolium is an excellent medicinal material to attract mosquitoes, and the statement that mosquitoes are repelled is wrong. ”
"The right one. Please identify the second spirit grass. ”
"Ancient Moon Epiphany, Tenth-Order Spirit Grass, Highly Poisonous Thing, Strange Fragrance......"
......
Mu Xian quickly answered the question, and in the blink of an eye, the two hundred true/false questions were over, and he successfully answered three hundred and ninety-nine correctly.
Among them, there was a kind of beginner-level divine grass, which he had indeed never seen, and there was no record even on Master Gou's identification jade slip.
However, answering a question incorrectly does not prevent him from entering the second stage, the identification stage.
A strange purple grass shaped like henna appeared in the air, faintly exuding a faint heat and a faint bitter taste.
"Nine-leaf Tianyi grass, nine-order spirit grass, bitter and astringent, often grows in hot places, can get rid of heat poison, and healing is far better. As long as it can be refined, Tianye Xuandan, Seven Star Tianhe Soup, etc. ”
"Correct four hundred. Please identify the 402nd strain. ”
......
There were also 400 identification questions, and Mu Xian made seven mistakes, of which four herbs he didn't recognize, and the other three were those he remembered wrongly.
After the identification questions, there are 200 questions, which are a bit broader, and sometimes you are given two herbs to tell you what the effects of their effects are.
Sometimes it's given to two herbs and asked to tell you what effect they have after smelting......
In short, there are many kinds of them, and they are extremely messy, but they are all knowledge of medicinal herbs.
Even if he is well-read, he can't answer all the questions.
In the end, he failed twenty-four times, which was the most failures in the entire level.
"After completing the level, you have successfully identified a total of 962 herbs, scored 200 points, and ranked ninth, congratulations on advancing to the second level. ”
A crisp voice came, and Mu Xian was teleported into a large lounge, and there were four or five hundred people in the hall, who seemed to be teleported in at the same time.
The nine hundred and sixty-two plants were successfully identified, but they were only the ninth, which made Mu Xian sigh that there were really geniuses.
According to his understanding, he can successfully identify more than 950 plants, either the first or the second, but he didn't expect that there were eight more than him in front of him.
But think about it, this genius competition has been going on for tens of thousands of years, and many people know the rules, maybe many alchemists are like the imperial examination, specializing in practicing the identification of medicinal herbs, and it is not surprising that they can get high scores, and the real competition is in the later stage of alchemy, which is the competition to see who is a genius.
"Congratulations to all of you present, you are the top five hundred and twelve in the first level, and you will enter the second level in a quarter of an hour to identify the medicinal properties. ”
It's still the same crisp voice, only this time everyone can hear it.
Mu Xian looked around, there were immature-looking young men in the hall, and there were old men with withered faces, but none of them should be more than five hundred years old.
Among them, those with the lowest cultivation are only half-step gods, and those with the highest cultivation have reached the early stage of the gods...... If there is really no order to learn, the master is the teacher.
There was a sudden light in the lounge, everyone couldn't help but close their eyes, and the next body was slightly light, and they had already appeared in a room.
The crisp voice came again, and began to introduce the rules to everyone:
"Identify the second level, identify the medicinal properties, and break through the level for two hours. There are 200 kinds of pills and decoctions for identification in this level, and you need to judge or answer the main medicinal properties of this kind of pill, the points to note in refining it, and the side effects. 50 points for 50 successful identifications, 100 points for 100 successful identifications, 200 points for 150 successful identifications, and 300 points for successful identification of 200 species. ”
"The beginning of the pass, the first elixir. ”
A pale golden elixir appeared in front of Mu Xian, obviously illusory, but he could perceive the color, fragrance, taste, and even the Dao rhyme emanating from the surface of the elixir. (To be continued.) )
