The day of the alchemy competition came, and the location was in the square of the border desert city.

Most of the alchemists who participated in the alchemy competition were the alchemists of the Tiandan Building and the alchemists of the Xiaodan Pavilion, in addition, there were several alchemists from other places who also planned to participate.

The referee who presided over the game was an elder of the Alchemist Alliance.

The Alchemist Alliance is one of the greatest forces in the Heavenly Desolate Realm, and it is also the gathering place of most of the alchemists in the Heavenly Desolate Realm, and it is the authoritative organization of the alchemists in the Heavenly Desolate Realm, and it is also responsible for the level assessment of alchemists.

This elder of the Alchemy Master Alliance, called Chen Qigu, has a good reputation, he is an alchemy master, seventy or eighty years old, with a pinch of white beard, looks a little like a fairy wind and bones, has a good look, is not a villain, and can preside over the alchemy competition fairly.

In addition, there were also Tiandan Mansion Master and others who also sat side by side with Chen Qigu, and the people from Xiaodan Pavilion were watching from the sidelines.

The alchemists who participated in the alchemy competition, after registering, each stood in front of the alchemy furnaces that had already been prepared, each alchemy furnace was the most ordinary bronze pill furnace, and there was an empty table next to it.

Qin Yang also participated in the competition, he was already able to refine the four-grade pill freely, he was a real alchemist, he didn't expect to get any rankings, but he was able to motivate himself in such a competition, learn from each other, and the benefits were not small.

There were only two people in the Little Dan Pavilion, Chu Duan and Qin Yang, and the Tiandan Tower dispatched ten alchemists, nine of whom were full-time alchemists from the Tiandan Tower in the border desert city, and one was a foreign aid, who looked less than forty years old, with an expressionless face as if his face was paralyzed.

In addition, there were four alchemists from other places who came to participate, and they came together, the youngest was less than 20 years old, and the oldest was in his early thirties, and one of them was a young man in his twenties who was the most eye-catching.

The spirit is flying, the temperament is extraordinary, and his own cultivation has also reached the Qi Sea Realm. There is a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looks very confident, and in terms of alchemy attainments, it should not be low.

Counting up, there are a total of sixteen alchemists participating in this alchemy competition.

Referee Chen Qigu announced the rules and process of the alchemy competition.

The rules of the alchemy competition are that you can only refine yourself, and under the condition of using the same bronze pill furnace and ink carbon, you can refine the same pill, and the quality is judged by the level.

The competition is divided into four stages: preliminary round and semi-final. Semi-finals, finals.

At the beginning of the preliminary competition, each alchemist gets a pill, the pill is a four-grade pill, called Huli Dan, after taking it, it can double the amount of its own strength for a period of time, the value is not low, and it is also relatively out of the way.

The sixteen alchemists all took action.

Chu Duan glanced at Dan Fang. There was a clear thought in his mind, but Qin Yang couldn't, he kept staring at Dan Fang and studying it carefully, constantly thinking. Like Qin Yang, there are also some alchemists.

Among them, the most prominent, in addition to Chu Duan, was the middle-aged alchemist with facial paralysis in Tiandanlou and the attention-grabbing young alchemist from other places.

Put down the Danfang. To start alchemy, the first step is to extract the essence of medicinal herbs.

Accompanied by the Dan Fang of Huli Dan. There were also three medicinal materials from Huli Dan, which were also sent and placed on the table next to them.

That is to say, each alchemist has three chances to refine the Huli Pill, and if all three fails, they will be eliminated directly.

Chen Qigu sat on the high platform in front of the alchemist and the others, his eyes flickering, taking in the actions of each alchemist, and then, his attention focused on the middle-aged alchemist with facial paralysis in Tiandanlou and the young alchemist with outstanding temperament, as well as Chu Duan, he was sure that the final decision or winner was among these three people, and the others were just foils.

Huli Pill is just a four-grade pill, and it is not difficult to refine, so it can't be as eye-catching as it can be.

After the essence of the medicinal herbs was extracted, he began to put it into the Dan furnace for melting, and the young alchemist with outstanding temperament was the first to open the furnace, and a musky aroma of the elixir suddenly diffused out, very light.

Immediately afterwards, it was the middle-aged alchemist with facial paralysis in Tiandanlou who received the pill, and the third was Chu Duan.

About two quarters of an hour later, all the alchemists had finished refining the pills, and when the pills were baked, someone immediately picked up the pills and presented them to Chen Qigu for judgment one by one.

"Qinyang ......" After Chen Qigu finished his identification, he read out eight names: "You are eliminated, and the others rest for half an hour and advance to the semifinals." ”

Although it was a little expected, Qin Yang was still a little sad, but he immediately adjusted and left the position of the alchemy competition to act as a spectator.

Chen Qigu did not announce the ranking of the alchemists who advanced to the semi-finals, it didn't matter, the most important thing was the final final, who the champion was.

The champion has a reward, and the bet between Xiao Dan Pavilion and Tian Dan Lou is just an additional bet.

Half an hour later, the rematch began.

The pill refined in the rematch is not simple, it is a six-pin pill, called Da Huan Dan.

The Great Returning Pill is actually an upgraded version of the Small Returning Pill, and it is also one of the better elixirs for treating internal injuries in the Qi Transformation Realm.

This alchemy competition, hosted by Tiandanlou, said that it was impossible for them to come up with rare pills, and Chu Duan counted some losses and some benefits.

The advantage is that he got a pill for nothing, or a six-pin pill, and the loss was his first contact, and the middle-aged alchemist with facial paralysis in Tiandanlou didn't know how many furnaces he had refined, and that young alchemist with outstanding temperament had also refined it many times.

Chu Duan carefully looked at the Danfang, but the middle-aged alchemist with facial paralysis and the young alchemist with outstanding temperament had already begun to take medicinal materials, and they were familiar with this hand.

Putting down the pill, Chu Duan realized that he was the last person to start extracting the essence of medicinal herbs, Chen Qigu looked at Chu Duan, his brows furrowed slightly, and secretly said that he had lost his eyes.

If according to his judgment, Chu Duan should have refined a lot of Great Returning Pills, how could he behave like the first refining.

Heat the oven, put the first herbs, and use the essence with the spiritual idea.

The six-pin pill already needs to be treated with care, even if it is an alchemy master, it may fail if you are not careful.

The ten fingers of the young alchemist's hands kept pointing out and poking on the bronze Dan furnace, walking with his body, circling the bronze Dan furnace, each finger made the bronze Dan furnace tremble slightly.

The middle-aged alchemist with facial paralysis spread his legs apart, shoulder-width apart, stood firm in front of the bronze pill furnace, raised his palms with both hands, and slapped on the bronze pill furnace in a rhythm of fast three and slow four.

"Iron Finger Extraction...... It turned out to be the descendant of that guy. Chen Qigu saw the movements of the young alchemist, his body straightened, his eyes flashed with essence, he nodded secretly, and looked at the middle-aged alchemist with facial paralysis: "It turned out to be a sevenfold high-five extraction technique, which is not bad." ”

Immediately, he swept over the others and landed on Chu Duan, and sighed with some disappointment, because Chu Duan used the basic pure method, and the only thing worthy of praise was that he was decent and his basic skills were very solid.

"Did I really look away? Chen Qigu said secretly, the lord of Tiandan Mansion has also been paying attention to Chu Duan, he doesn't dare to underestimate Chu Duan, this is a swordsman with advanced cultivation, and he is very young, who knows if there is great power behind Lu Dao.

Chu Duan was the third to finish extracting the essence of the medicinal herbs, which brought a trace of anticipation to Chen Qigu.

began to melt the elixir and put the essence of the medicinal herbs, and Chu Duan's movements were very natural and harmonious.

And the young alchemist and the middle-aged alchemist had already put all the medicinal essence into the Dan furnace and began to melt it.

The young alchemist once again performed a commensurate alchemy technique, that is, the Iron Finger Eight Style, while the middle-aged alchemist with facial paralysis performed seven up, eight down, and fifteen strikes.

However, Chu Duan still uses basic alchemy techniques.

Chu Duan's third pill collector came out, before him, it was a young alchemist and a middle-aged alchemist with facial paralysis, looking at their eyes, full of confidence.

After all the alchemists finished refining the Great Returning Pill, someone presented the pills one by one for Chen Qigu to identify.

The most important comparison of alchemists is the quality of the pill and the number of pills.

After the appraisal was completed, Chen Qigu once again announced that the four people who were eliminated, and the other four people advanced to the semi-finals, and Chu Duan was among them.

After a half-hour break, the semi-finals began.

This time, it was the Seven Rank Pill that was refined: Fire Desolation Pill.

The Fire Desolate Pill is an elixir that assists in cultivation, suitable for beginners in the Qi Sea Realm and those who are small swordsmen, which can effectively refine the desolate sword qi and make the sword qi more refined.

In the semi-finals, two will be eliminated, and two will advance to the final of the final.

When Chu Duan was still studying the pill formula, the young alchemist and the middle-aged alchemist had already begun to extract the essence of the medicinal herbs, and indeed, they had a relative advantage.

"It looks like the two of them should be the finalists. Chen Qigu said secretly, his gaze swept over the faces of the young alchemist and the middle-aged alchemist.

Immediately, he looked at Chu Duan again, feeling a little regretful.

"However, it is a good seedling with a very solid foundation, waiting for the end of the game before contacting, if the character is okay, it can be accepted as a disciple and inherit the mantle. Chen Qigu thought secretly.

Chu Duan was still using the basic alchemy technique, and in the eyes of others, there was nothing outstanding at all, and the vast majority of people's attention was focused on the young alchemist and the middle-aged alchemist.

Qin Yang stared at Chu Duan, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart.

He is very confident in Chu Duan, but the opponent is not simple.

Finally, the Fire Desolation Pills of the four alchemists were all refined, and they were once again presented in front of Chen Qigu.

Chen Qigu first glanced at the four alchemists, retracted his gaze, and landed on the pill in front of him, taking a closer look, he suddenly thought that he had seen it wrong.

It took him a while before he announced the two alchemists who had been eliminated.

"Impossible!" The young alchemist's face changed, and he roared, he didn't believe that he had been eliminated and could not advance to the finals.

And the one who advanced to the finals was the middle-aged alchemist with facial paralysis from Chu Duan and Tiandanlou, which was really surprising. (To be continued......)
