Chapter 176: Small Victory
The Pill Conference has always been the performance venue of the Chiyan Gate, although there have been people such as the City Lord's Mansion and the Hundred Blades Pavilion who know the art of alchemy over the years, but the pills refined are far inferior to the Chiyan Gate.
If it is said that the people of the Blue Lotus Sect can refine the pill, people will still believe it, but if it is said that the people of the Linglong Palace will refine the pill, people will definitely say that you are lying, or that you don't understand the forces of the Five Directions City.
The same is true for the pill conference, there will be various forces to compete, but most of them are still loose cultivators and some top-notch sect disciples, and the participation of loose cultivators is just to give themselves a chance to enter the major sects.
The sun is rising, and the pill conference is also going on in an orderly manner.
Many contestants have appeared one after another, and the disciples of the major sects can choose some quiet positions that are relatively undisturbed, and those positions that are exposed in front of people are generally not chosen, unless the kind of arrogant and conceited people are very confident in their own strength, they will choose such a position to compete.
Liu Xiangxiang chose a relatively quiet place, but this place was also next to Hong Sheng and Hong Yi of the Chiyan Sect, and such a place naturally could not escape the eyes of their pill sects, and it would definitely be taken first.
"Hey, I really didn't expect that Lingling Palace would also be able to do alchemy, I really laughed to death!" a participating disciple of the Chiyan Sect sneered.
"Brother Tai, have you ever heard of Gou Yan breathing!" said another disciple of the Qinglian Sect.
"Ao, I know, it's the dog that is dying and panting, isn't it, Brother Dao is really high, such a wonderful word is too incisive to use in some sects. Hahaha!"
Liu Xiangxiang gritted her teeth, and was so angry that she wanted to beat up these guys who looked like dogs right away, but she didn't, she couldn't help it.
Lin Yue really couldn't listen to it anymore and said, "Ah, the two mad dogs barked so fiercely, it's really noisy, why don't we change positions?"
"What are you talking about, what are you, a little Dantong dares to scold us!" said the disciple of the Chiyan Sect, looking at Lin Yue as if he were just a Dantong.
"You're right, I'm a little Dantong, I can't make things, you two are okay things!" Lin Yue said lightly.
"Fart, we're not things······" The man's words were not right.
Liu Xiangxiang and Lin Yue both held back a smile.
"No, we are things, and we are not things·······" The man looked at the mocking faces of the people next to him, fell into a panic, and suddenly didn't know what to say.
"With such an IQ, we dare to come out and shout, and it seems that our IQ is low compared to them!" Liu Xiangxiang said, and they changed their positions and left.
When he happened to walk by Hong Yi's side, Hong Yi took a step forward and said, "This Daoist brother looks old, dare to ask what to call him?"
"A little Dantong, what a foot Daoye!" Lin Yue smiled and Liu Xiangxiang walked towards the place where no one wanted to go and where everyone was in the limelight. It's eye-catching, but it's absolutely quiet.
"Fifth Senior Brother, why are you interested in a little Dantong!" Hong Sheng said.
"He is not a little Dantong, Liu Xiangxiang dares to come to the competition, I am afraid it has a lot to do with him!" Hong Yi said.
"Fifth Senior Brother, they are just dying and struggling, this time, Linglong Palace will be removed from the Five Directions forces!"
"It's hard to say, let's go, let's get started, let's go back to the position first!" Hong Yi said.
Hong Sheng was a little surprised, he didn't know why Hong Yi looked up to Liu Xiangxiang, in terms of Liu Xiangxiang's cultivation, it did surprise him a little, but this is refining pills, alchemy is not something that can be practiced overnight, thinking that although he himself has expertise in both Danshu and refining, with such talent, he has also practiced for several years to achieve today's achievements, Liu Xiangxiang is impossible, but he ignored another person, Lin Yue, he didn't know, but Hong Yi knew, and secretly followed Xiao Er of Huiqifang.
As soon as Liu Xiangxiang came to this position, it attracted everyone's attention, and many people talked about it, this Linglong Palace also participated in the Dan Meeting, is it really as the outside world said, forced into a desperate situation, and had to bite the bullet and drive the ducks to the shelves.
"The head of the Changqing Dynasty, the disciple is really good, and he even learned the alchemy technique of others to play with it, but it's really surprising to me!"
There is quite a pair, you are a toddler in Handan, a rigid routine, a parrot, and a wisdom picker, and the implication is that this can only increase laughter.
"Hahaha, the head of the Evergreen Dynasty is desperate, and he wants to die and live later!hehehe!" Cang Song also agreed.
"It's not the turn of two people to do things in my Linglong Palace!" Chang Qing said not to be outdone.
The two of them were splashed with cold water, their faces were a little unbearable, they snorted angrily with their sleeves, and then stopped talking, and said viciously in their hearts: "See how long you can jump!"
The city lord Fu was indifferent, but the Hundred Blades Pavilion Lord was frowning, with a hint of cold lips and teeth.
With the order of the superintendent, it was announced that the Dan meeting would begin.
The participating disciples below all showed their Danding, all kinds of colors, but Hong Yi's Danding is the best, Liu Xiangxiang's Danding was bought cheaply by Lin Yue, although it is not the worst, but it is not as good as other sect disciples.
Danding is a kind of thing, but also the refiner with a unique metal or ore refining, although there is no spirit pattern, but it is also the same as the spirit weapon with the spirit pattern, there is a quality difference, Hong Yi's Danding is equivalent to the middle grade of the spirit weapon. Lin Yue's is only equivalent to a pseudo-spirit weapon, which is two grades worse.
The first competition is the refining of medicinal materials, these medicinal materials are provided by the conference, the refined medicinal materials are the same, they are all a kind of red spirit wood plant, this plant is extremely fire-resistant, and the spiritual liquid in it has a special effect is to have a special nourishing effect on the soul of people, but most people do not know how to nourish the soul of the specific method, not to mention that there are not many people who can condense spiritual consciousness and spiritual sense, so this kind of thing has become a bit chicken.
After the red spirit wood was distributed, the participating disciples began to iron the ding, and then put the red spirit wood into it for refinement, taking the flame as an example, it is currently Liu Xiangxiang's Dan Spirit flame level is the highest, and Hong Yi doesn't know what kind of flame it is, there is also a trace of white spiritual light in the cyan flame, it should not be an ordinary flame, and Fu Huan of the City Lord's Mansion is also a rare disciple with high alchemy talent, and he has grown a lot with the help of Chiyanmen over the years, but unfortunately his cultivation has not yet reached the light spirit flame realm. The Hundred Blades Pavilion has always specialized in refining tools, and it has rarely involved in the elixir at all, they are all specialized, and they don't want Hong Sheng to be like this, although their flame is not bad, but unfortunately there is no advanced alchemy method to practice the assistance, and the elixir is only studied by a few people, and it is not a climate.
As time passed, many people were depressed, grabbed another piece of this red spirit wood, and continued to refine, Liu Xiangxiang did the same, this kind of red spirit wood is refractory, so she raised the temperature of the flame relatively high, so just refined a little, the back was all burned, turned into ashes, and the others were almost the same.
"The temperature of the flame is lower, don't have too much fire, just wrap the red spirit wood, don't worry!" Lin Yue reminded.
Under Lin Yue's reminder, a drop of liquid finally dripped out of the Chiling Wood, but the turbid particles in this liquid still looked very obvious, and it should be a low-grade refining liquid.
"Brother Lin, this quality is a little poor!" Liu Xiangxiang was a little dissatisfied.
"Don't worry, increase the temperature appropriately, this drop, you wrap it in flame gas first!" Lin Yue said.
A very wonderful scene happened in Danding, a ball of flame was scorching the red spirit wood, and another ball of cyan flame wrapped in liquid droplets and hung in the ding.
After a while, another drop appeared, this drop was better than just now, but the impurities in it seemed to have become a little burnt, it seemed that the temperature was better the first time, and the fineness was better this time, this red spirit wood could not be refined at one time.
Through this attempt, Lin Yue knew that the refining of this thing should rely on spiritual sense, and the impurities and liquids of the refining liquid should be controlled by spiritual consciousness and roasted at different temperatures. Liu Xiangxiang has not tried this kind of fine refining, and this is also her first time, so she removes the impurities of the refining liquid part by part, this method is to prevent failure, if it fails, at least there is a part of the refining intact, so as not to lose the game.
Finally, when the last sand of the hourglass fell, the time for the game came.
Some people are happy and some are worried, and the disciples who have not been refined, with a look of resentment, curse these questioners, and are uneasy and kind.
Suddenly, the large field of two or three hundred people was reduced by half, and only more than a hundred people remained.
The superintendent said: "The disciples who have refined no less than nine drops of liquid are listed!" Because this liquid wants to refine more than ten drops, it is the level of the Dan family, so there is such a classification, but there are people close to the level of the Dan family, such as Hong Yi.
As soon as these words came out, only Hong Yi came out.
Hong Li's face was filled with an endless smile, which was a kind of glory and satisfaction.
"No less than seven drops out of the ranks!"
Six more came out, including Fu Huan and Hong Sheng.
Seeing that there was no Liu Xiangxiang and Lin Yue, Changqing's heart lifted, because these seven were enough to occupy the top five positions she was looking forward to.
"Not less than four drops out of the ranks. ”
There were more people who came out this time, thirty or forty of them came out at once, and Liu Xiangxiang was among these people this time.
Needless to say, what can be done with two or three drops of extracted pills, the amount required for half a pill is not enough, and it is naturally eliminated.
Of course, this is not over, someone can refine it, maybe it is indiscriminate, maybe it is a waste liquid, who dares to eat the elixir made of this extremely turbid liquid, eating those things is self-abuse, looking for death.
Hong Yi suspended the refining liquid from the jade bottle in the air, and there were very few impurities in the clear cyan liquid. The judges all leaked a smile of approval, yes is a medium-grade refining liquid, the first in this round is none other than Hong Yi,
Hong Sheng, Fu Huan and others are also close to the middle grade, but the amount is a little less.
Next is a large number of people in Liu Xiangxiang's group, some of them showed the refining liquid, and the people next to them all sneered, this is the refining liquid, this is clearly a mess of paste, these people are obviously indiscriminate, and the refining is pseudo-liquid. But when Liu Xiangxiang took it out, the people next to him were stunned.
"The best?"
As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted everyone's attention, and the judge also ran over.
After looking carefully, I found that it was not the best, and there were no impurities in the best, but there were still some impurities refined by Liu Xiangxiang, but if I didn't look carefully, it was still difficult to see.
"Little girl, how did you do that?" the warden asked.
"Hehe, I'm just lucky!" Liu Xiangxiang said.
The judge laughed loudly, how could others say this kind of refining method easily, that is not a treasure, it is he who is abrupt, and he forgot this stubble in a hurry.
"In terms of quality, you deserve to be number one, although your extraction is a little less!" said the judge, and the other judges agreed with this view.
They don't know, if it comes to it, Liu Xiangxiang refined ten drops for the first time, but it was one drop more than Hong Yi, but when removing impurities, he consumed another five drops, but these five drops were still barely able for alchemy, and they could also improve the quality of the pill.
The sharp-eyed Hong Li had already discovered all this, glanced at Chang Qing suspiciously, and thought a little, Chang Qing was finally relieved, she finally believed in Lin Yue's strength, it seems that Haitang should have made the right bet this time.
In the first round, Liu Xiangxiang won by a small margin.
