Chapter 261: Each Showing Their Magical Powers
After twelve hours, the sand in the hourglass on the high platform finally ran out, which also signaled the end of the second round of assessment.
At this time, both the spectators and the alchemists below the platform showed expressions of exhaustion. After all, not resting for such a long time, the body definitely couldn't take it.
Fama, Gu He, and Qie Mi Er stood up and walked to the front of the platform again, looking at the less than forty light columns in the entire field, and felt somewhat emotional!
But there was no other way. There were too many alchemists participating this time. If they followed the past assessments, the medicinal materials consumed would be massive.
Using the most common medicinal pills for the first and second rounds of assessment also had this consideration.
"Congratulations on passing the assessment again! You have proven yourselves. No matter whether you can pass the next round or not, your talent is unparalleled! Now, please, remaining alchemists, go to the front to participate in the next round of assessment." Fama shouted loudly on the platform.
Hearing this, the alchemists below the platform picked up the medicine cauldrons and medicinal pills on the stone platforms one after another and walked toward the front.
The difficulty of refining Grade 5 medicinal pills is very high, and it takes a very long time. It takes a day and a night to succeed. Even Grade 6 alchemists have a high failure rate, and there is only one portion of medicinal materials, which means there is only one chance.
Hearing Fama's shout, the alchemists below the platform felt their heads ache. Some were so tired that they couldn't even open their eyes. These people took out the Qi Recovery Pills refined in the first round and stuffed them into their mouths to restore Dou Qi and physical strength.
Actually, this is no wonder. It's like the first place in a township going to participate in a provincial-level assessment and being beaten to a pulp.
At this time, there were still more than ten people left in the field. All of them were concentrating on refining medicine, and the surrounding environment couldn't disturb them.
"Liu Ling, you said why didn't Nie Feng come to participate in this Alchemist Grand Meeting? If he came to participate, he would definitely be able to achieve good results. Now, alchemists from other countries have suddenly appeared, and their strength is very strong. Although our alchemy level has been well improved, just the second round already requires refining Grade 4 medicinal pills. The next one must be Grade 5. Even passing is a problem, let alone winning the championship," Yao Yue looked at Liu Ling and said.
More than ten portions of medicinal materials were fused together. As long as there was a small error, it would lead directly to failure. Xiao Yan heard muffled sounds from his ears from time to time, but Xiao Yan had no heart to pay attention.
"I originally wanted to take out the Heart of the Earth! It seems I don't need to now!" A smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth. A yellow flame appeared in his palm, and after sending the flame into the medicine cauldron, he began to extract medicinal materials.
The alchemy continued. Every alchemist was busy starting to extract medicinal materials, and every step was cautious, done after careful consideration. After all, there was only one chance.
Although they really wanted to rest for a while to restore some spirit and physical strength, the hourglass on the high platform had already started timing. If they didn't start quickly, when the time was up, they would still fail.
Time passed without knowing it. The sun in the sky first set from the west and then rose from the east. The dazzling sunlight shone on the alchemists who were refining medicine again.
It was truly like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers!
"Could it be that Fama knows what kind of medicinal pills I usually like to refine?" Xiao Yan picked up the pill recipe and looked at it, almost laughing to death.
"Restoration Pill: Specifically used to heal some serious injuries. And because the medicinal nature is mild, it will not cause any damage to the already injured body. It can simply be called an excellent medicinal pill for healing serious injuries!"
Xiao Yan also extracted all the medicinal materials and began to fuse the pill. Although others were a few minutes faster than Xiao Yan, they didn't go much faster.
The spectators on both sides also increased at this time. Those failed alchemists didn't choose to leave but became spectators.
"He? He is indeed very powerful! And he possesses an Exotic Fire. If he uses the Exotic Fire, the championship is estimated to be his," Liu Ling looked at Xiao Yan and said.
Although they couldn't win the championship, watching others refine such high-level medicinal pills could also be very rewarding. Usually, there is no such opportunity!
Others saw this and shook their heads one after another, because using this kind of low-level medicine cauldron to refine Grade 5 medicinal pills was looking for death, and it would explode the furnace 100%.
At this time, since they were close, they naturally had to observe carefully. After all, the remaining alchemists were not low in strength and were powerful competitors.
At this moment, an energy ripple spread from a certain alchemist's medicine cauldron and swept toward the surroundings. When Grade 5 medicinal pills take shape, because they contain too much energy, they will produce substantial energy ripples out of thin air.
The medicinal pill Xiao Yan used to practice before was the Restoration Pill, because this kind of medicinal pill has a very good healing effect, and coupled with Xiao Yan's use of Yang Fire for refinement, the effect is even more heaven-defying. The healing medicine he gave to the Eight-Winged Black Snake Emperor before was the Restoration Pill.
A few alchemists blinked their eyes a few times because the sunlight was too dazzling, which directly led to failure. A muffled sound rang out, and these people could only walk down the square cursing and become a spectator.
After fusing all the medicinal materials, a pitted medicinal pill prototype appeared in the medicine cauldron.
"Nie Feng is not in conflict with your empire? I'm afraid he is wary of you! I originally thought that after two years of hard work, I could achieve good results in the meeting. Now it seems that I am sitting in a well and looking at the sky. I really don't know where so many terrifying alchemists came from," Liu Ling felt a sense of powerlessness at this time.
After reaching the first row, all the alchemists were looking around. Before, they were too far away, and they were all refining pills, so they had no heart to pay attention to others.
The alchemists below the platform took out the best medicine cauldrons they had collected from their storage rings one after another, and the flames they summoned were not ordinary flames, but all beast fires.
Fama on the high platform didn't give the alchemists below the platform too much rest time. After greeting the maids to send the medicinal materials to the blue stone platform of each alchemist, he shouted loudly again: "This time, we are refining Grade 5 medicinal pills. The third round begins now!"
"If this Bu Jingyun were from the Gama Empire, that would be great. Although this person is dressed a bit strangely, his strength is also extraordinary. He has caused a lot of trouble in the Imperial Capital recently! And just using ordinary fire to achieve such results is really terrifying!" Yao Yue knew that she had no chance for the championship, looked at Xiao Yan and said.
"Confused! How can you still use this kind of low-level medicine cauldron? Even if the alchemy technique is heaven-defying, it will still explode the furnace!" Seeing this scene, Fama on the high platform couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
Xiao Yan hurriedly used soul power to condense a cover to cover the medicine cauldron to prevent the medicinal pill from being destroyed. As for those alchemists who didn't react, their medicine cauldrons were touched by the energy ripples, and the medicinal materials inside instantly turned into ashes.
Seeing this, Fama and Gu He on the high platform also shook their heads with some regret. After all, this couldn't blame others, only their own lack of experience.
