The alchemy conference was held at the Super Plaza in front of the Castle Lord's Mansion in the Sky City.

On this day, as soon as the sky was bright, Su Xuan couldn't wait to come to the door of Zhang Li's room. For a whole month, there was no news from Zhang Li, which made Su Xuan very worried. She was afraid that if Zhang Li sank into a certain state and forgot the time, it would be bad.

Su Xuan was about to push the door in, but the door suddenly squeaked open. Zhang Li appeared in front of Su Xuan neatly and refreshed. With a faint smile on his face, he didn't speak, just looked at Su Xuan lightly.

"Today is a very important day, you stinky boy seems very calm. Su Xuan was surprised in his heart, and said slowly with a slightly teasing tone.

Zhang Li sniffed, didn't care, and then smiled faintly: "Sister Xuan, let's go to the square." ”

It is impossible for him to forget this extremely important day no matter what. When it comes to Shangguan Ziyu and Tong Yanni, Zhang Li remembers it clearly, and he takes this alchemy conference more seriously and seriously than anyone else.

Su Xuan looked at Zhang Li's extremely firm and upright back, and originally wanted to ask him how his Danshu cultivation was, but in the end he didn't ask. After a pause, she immediately followed behind Zhang Li, and soon walked out of the City Lord's Mansion and came to the super square with a radius of about 10,000 zhang.

Because the alchemy conference has to go through several rounds of competition, and it takes a long time, so early in the morning, the people sent by the City Lord's Mansion and the Dai family have already set up the 'competition venue'. Zhang Li looked around and found that there were no less than 3,000 'grids' densely packed in the square. Each grid is about one zhang square, and a fairly neat stone platform is erected. Just enough to accommodate a contestant to play in it without affecting the neighboring contestants.

The 3,000 'test grids' criss-crossed, and they were also numbered separately, from 'one' to 'three thousand'. It was surrounded by a high 'judging platform'. The judges sitting on it just had a good eye on all the participants' movements.

"Sister Xuan, three thousand squares, can there be so many Dan Masters in Sky City?" Zhang Li couldn't help but turn his head to Su Xuan and asked in confusion.

Su Xuan immediately explained: "How is it possible, Dan Shi is so scarce and noble, it is impossible for the entire Wu Immortal Wasteland to have three thousand Dan Masters. This alchemy conference is not only for Dan masters to participate, as long as you want to participate, you can participate according to the normal process. There are no special restrictions. Moreover, the alchemy conference is an advanced competition system, and more than half of the participants will be brushed down in the first round. ”

Zhang Li was stunned when he heard this. Then soon, he saw that more and more cultivators had begun to pour in to the square. In less than a pillar of incense, the square was crowded around. Fortunately, the spectators who did not participate in the competition could fly in the air outside the square on their own, otherwise, the whole square would be crowded.

Su Xuan suddenly whispered to Zhang Li at this time: "Zhang Li, in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, I have to go back to the team of the City Lord's Mansion now." It's all up to you. ”

Zhang Li nodded, and threw a 'reassuring' look at Su Xuan. Then Zhang Li slowly stepped into the ranks of cultivators who participated in the competition.

Not long waiting, the audience suddenly burst into thunderous applause, and all the cultivators were very respectful and fiery and cast their eyes on the 'main judgment platform' at the highest point of the square. There was an old man in a green shirt and a long beard, waving to all the cultivators, and slowly standing on the main judgment platform with a smile. Zhang Li immediately recognized that this old man in green clothes and long beard was the first Dan Master of Sky City, Dai Shan!

Then the audience immediately became extremely quiet, only to hear Dai Shan say loudly: "Everyone is not restless, when the city lord arrives in person, we will start immediately." Not long after his words fell, a hearty laugh came out of the City Lord's Mansion: "Dai Lao is polite, such a grand event, you should listen to Dai Lao's orders." ”

Another sturdy crane-haired and child-faced old man, with an invisible majesty, soon appeared on the main judging platform. This old man is none other than the city lord of Sky City, Tang Xiaotian. After he stepped onto the main judgment platform, he smiled and said a few words to Dai Shan, and then flew to the middle of the five benches that had been suspended in mid-air in front of the main gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

After Tang Xiaotian slowly sat down with a compelling majesty, three figures quickly flew from the three chairs on both sides, and they sat down after greeting Tang Xiaotian very politely. These three people are the head of the Oriental family, Dongfang **, the head of the Annihilation family, and Qin Huang, the head of the Qin family. And the last remaining chair was undoubtedly prepared for the Duanmu family, but unfortunately the Duanmu family has fallen, and the empty chair has also become an ornament.

The four of them sat there, looking extremely conspicuous and abrupt, but none of them dared to object. These four people already represent the strongest lineup of Sky City, and they all have the ninth layer cultivation of the Qi Yuan Realm! Among them, Tang Xiaotian and Dongfang ** have reached the peak of the ninth layer of the Qi Yuan Realm. Annihilation Wuchen and Qin Huang were slightly inferior.

However, those who really know the Qin family know that the Qin family also has an unfathomable 'crazy old man', and that is the number one master of the Qin family.

"Listen, everyone. Now the four masters will throw the 'sign' into the air. Each of you grabs one, becomes your own sign, and then takes a seat in the 'grid'. Dai Shan's clear and majestic voice suddenly sounded again.

Zhang Ligang refocused his gaze on the four masters, and suddenly heard a very disdainful and arrogant voice in his ears: "Lu Zhang, I advise you to give up directly." Otherwise, when you get to the test table, you will only make a fool of yourself. Hahahaha. ”

Zhang Li turned his head and found that it was Dongfang Chaoqun. He frowned, without any words. Instead, he suddenly set his eyes on the other two figures of the group of cultivators.

One red and one black, the two figures, were extremely close to each other, and Zhang Li sensed in an instant that the soul power of these two people was also very strong. Almost completely above the Oriental superlative. The Cardinal was a young man, his face was a little pale as if he were weak, and at first glance he was completely malnourished. But Zhang Li knew very well that it was by no means weakness, but a result of the dilution of special soul power.

The black-clothed monk was a middle-aged scribe-like man with a high nose, comparable to that of a cheap magazine. However, there is a big difference between the appearance and the handsome cheap magazine. This person was born with a pair of 'eagle eyes', and the sharp light shines out from time to time, as if it wants to penetrate people's hearts.

Dongfang Chaoqun saw that Zhang Li didn't even bird himself, and he was suddenly a little angry, but he endured it, and thought viciously in his heart: "Wait a minute, Lao Tzu will definitely make you lose face and get out of the alchemy conference obediently, hum." ”

At this moment, the four masters of the family suddenly threw out the 'sign'. Three thousand black jade plaques, like an army of locusts, instantly filled the sky over the entire square.

The four masters also deliberately showed off their powerful cultivation, and after throwing the three thousand black jade cards in an orderly manner, they controlled them to stop in mid-air. Then, the 3,000 participants in the competition suddenly rushed into the air and began to compete for the black jade medal.

Almost all of these cultivators knew Dongfang Chaoqun, and they didn't bother Dongfang Chaoqun at all, and someone had already rushed to snatch the jade plate of No. 888 to Dongfang Chaoqun. And No. 8 and No. 88 also successfully fell into the hands of young men in red and middle-aged people in black.

Zhang Li didn't move, because at this moment, in front of the four masters, he didn't want to be in a hurry to expose himself. He needs more time to observe and then adopt a strategy accordingly. When everyone had almost grabbed it, Zhang Li quietly flew up and took a No. 444 black jade plate that no one wanted to hold in his hand. Then he quickly found the 'grid' No. 444 and landed steadily in it.

Dongfang Chaoqun in the distance, with incomparable contempt and ridicule, waved the No. 888 jade plate to Zhang Li very arrogantly. Zhang Limian didn't change his color, just quietly looked at Dai Shan on the judge's seat.

Dai Shan saw that the contestants had already taken their places, so he said loudly: "The first round of the competition starts now." The content of the competition, the power of fire. You have all seen the stone platform in front of you, and the surface of this stone platform is a very thin layer of 'ink stone', so now use the flames you each have to completely burn this layer of 'ink stone'. Thirty breaths of time. Cultivators who can't be burned within thirty breaths, or can't be burned completely, are eliminated!"

Before Dai Shan's words could be completely falling, nearly three thousand flames suddenly lit up in the entire square, which instantly raised the temperature in the square to an extremely hot point.

Zhang Li also immediately released an extremely rare bit of 'Blazing Sun Green Fire' and began to burn the 'Ink Stone'. He's very clever in his control, so it's not too high-profile. And if he is not high-profile, it does not mean that others are not high-profile. Among the thousands of clusters of flames, there were three clusters that were extremely domineering and wild, and it took less than five breaths to completely burn the ink stone.

The names of the owners of these three flames are 8, 88, and 888. As a result, almost all the eyes of the spectators were on these three people. And Zhang Li was unhurried, just before the thirty breaths were about to be exhausted, he completely burned the ink stone.

Zhang Li's performance made the disdain and ridicule on Dongfang Chaoqun's face more obvious and unscrupulous. He was even shaking his head, and he sighed at Zhang Li.

Zhang Li still didn't pay attention to this 'two hundred and five', just glanced at the No. 8 red-clothed young man and No. 88 black-clothed middle-aged man, and then spread his divine sense to the entire square.

This divine sense probe, Zhang Li was taken aback. More than half of the 3,000 participants went at once. He shook his head, not knowing what the hell these eliminated cultivators were thinking. Is it just for the first round of cutscenes?

Dai Shan's voice soon sounded again: "In the second round of competition, the five medicinal materials are purified." No matter what kind of five-grade medicinal materials you cultivate, you need to take out the purified medicinal powder for a comparison within the specified time of one pillar of incense. Only the top 300 will be taken. If you don't have the five kinds of medicinal materials, you can go to the City Lord's Mansion to collect them. ”

There was a loud noise, and almost more than a thousand cultivators chose to go to the City Lord's Mansion to receive the five-grade medicinal materials. Zhang Li was speechless for a while. At the same time, Dongfang Chaoqun's contemptuous and arrogant eyes glared at Zhang Li again. Zhang Li still chose to ignore it, and then after Dai Shan said 'start', he began to extract the powder of the five medicinal materials unhurriedly.

And no one noticed that in one of the squares not far behind Zhang Li, a mysterious gray-clothed cultivator who half-covered his face was refining the medicinal herbs while casting his gaze on Zhang Li as if he were nothing.
