A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 430 The End

Next, no one dared to be distracted and began the final stage of alchemy.

"open!"

On the stage, the contestants opened their cauldrons and produced pills one after another.

However, it is a competition among the younger generation after all. At the first-grade stage, one furnace of medicinal materials can only condense one pill. Although some have the strength to condense two pills, at this moment, most people dare not be arrogant, lest the cauldron explode and the pill be destroyed.

After the previous three rounds of screening, those who remain all have the strength of first-grade alchemists.

In addition, there is enough time, so the pills produced now are all of the first-grade Ren level or even Xin level.

Gradually, only the strongest few were left on the field.

"Are they all preparing to refine a Grade G elixir?"

"That's impossible. It should be Xin level, which is close to Geng level."

Now, people couldn't help but speculate.

"It should be."

"It's only four hours, is that enough time?" someone expressed doubt.

……

"out!"

Among the few people in a stalemate, the young alchemist from the Purple Fin Clan was the first to open the cauldron and produce the elixir.

As the last gesture was made, the lid of the tripod was blown open by a powerful mysterious force, and then a pill shining with white light flew out.

The alchemist from the Purple Fin Clan seemed to have been drained of all his strength and collapsed directly on the stage.

"It's the Purple Fin Clan's Bishui Lingqing Dan!"

When someone who knows what's good sees the pill, he immediately recognizes it as He Dan based on its appearance and the light and aura it emits.

"I wonder what the quality of this pill is?"

"It should be quite high. I can feel the huge medicinal power emanating from it even from such a distance. This fluctuation must be of Grade 1 Geng, and its value is no less than 20 intermediate spirit stones."

An old man at the initial stage of foundation building cultivation nearby said with a gleam in his eyes, very interested. This level of elixir would do him a lot of good.

"It is indeed the Bishui Lingqing Pill."

Xu Feng also spoke.

"Brother Xu, do you know this pill?"

Lu Luan asked with a smile.

Xu Feng nodded. "Well, the effect of this pill is very mild, with water attribute. Fifteen years ago, before I started working for the Zhou family, I came back from the Immortal Meeting. Fellow Daoist He gave me several body-tempering prescriptions. When I was looking for a fire-attributed spiritual herb underground, I was poisoned by a fire snake, but I luckily escaped with my life. Later, I bought a Green Water Spiritual Green Pill to cure the poison."

"What kind of spiritual herbs actually need to go underground?"

Lu Luan frowned, he knew very well the dangers underground.

"Red Flame Grass is only found underground. Although it can be bought outside, one plant costs more than twenty intermediate spirit stones. After returning from the Immortal Meeting, I have basically spent all the spirit stones on me. I have to go underground to find such a precious spirit grass myself," Xu Feng said bitterly.

"Your luck is better than mine."

An old man with a broken arm not far away said to him, looked at his broken arm, and continued with a vicissitudes of life:

"When I was young, I teamed up with others to search for treasure underground. Unexpectedly, we were ambushed by Yaksha. All ten of us died except me. If I hadn't been rescued by a disciple of the Fiery Flame Sect who was training underground, I would have lost my life. Even so, I also lost an arm. Since then, I have never gone underground again."

Lu Luan was silent.

On the stage, several second-grade alchemists looked at the pills and gave them a first-grade ultimate G-level score.

It almost reached the first-grade level and is the best pill refined by anyone so far.

"boom!"

"out."

"open!"

Seeing that he had already produced the pill, the others were not willing to be outdone. Then, there were more light sounds, and the remaining people began to produce pills one after another.

Without exception, all were successful, and all were top-grade, grade G elixirs.

"That's amazing! It seems that if they are given enough time, they can definitely refine a first-grade self-level elixir. That kind of elixir is worth 70 or 80 intermediate spirit stones. My annual salary is not enough to buy one."

Xu Feng exclaimed with his eyes shining, as if he hated himself for not being an alchemist.

"There should be no problem with refining, but there is a high failure rate," Lu Luan nodded in agreement. However, now seeing that several people were panting and looking pale, he knew that this was almost the limit. Four hours would be a huge test for them.

Ye Lingjun then announced the names of those who entered the fifth round. Just as Xu Feng said, they were all the strongest forces in and around Liushuang City. Although some of the other relatively weaker forces were as talented as those people, they did not have their conditions and were only slightly inferior in strength.

“I don’t know what kind of fierce competition the final round will be.”

"It must be very exciting. Maybe they are all refining first-grade self-level elixirs."

"Well, the prize is a top-level intermediate spiritual weapon-level alchemy furnace. The City Lord's Mansion is really rich and powerful."

"Isn't it true? The forces in Liushuang City have to pay a huge amount of spirit stones to the City Lord's Mansion every year."

"I hope the top three are all from my human race. If a treasure of this level is given to a foreign race, even though it is not mine, I will still feel uncomfortable."

"Yes, but the one from the Purple Fin Clan is very strong."

The top three were decided in the fifth round, and many people were wondering who would be in the top three. At least for now, it seems that the ten people who entered the fifth round are all equally strong.

"The alchemy furnace of the top intermediate spiritual weapon level."

Lu Luan was somewhat shocked. The spirit spear he was carrying was also of the intermediate level of spirit weapon, but it was far less valuable than this alchemy furnace. No wonder so many people felt such a pain in their hearts.

While everyone was discussing, Ye Lingjun announced:

"Everyone, since the alchemists are very tired today, the fifth session will be held in three days. The location is on the top floor of my Chamber of Commerce. You can come and visit then."

"Do you need more spirit stones?"

Someone around immediately asked.

"The venue is limited, and you need to pay another thirty intermediate spirit stones."

Ye Lingjun smiled.

"Cangyun Chamber of Commerce, you are not kind."

"Why do we have to pay spirit stones? Haven't we already paid?"

As soon as he finished speaking, complaints were heard from all around.

"A profiteer, worthy of being a businessman, is still plotting against our pockets."

Xu Feng was still looking forward to the final result of the game, but after hearing this, his face suddenly darkened and he cursed under his breath.

Lu Luan also shook his head. This was too unfair.

"Everyone, please be patient, be patient, and listen to me."

Ye Lingjun still had a smile on his face and pressed his hand.

Seeing this, although everyone was dissatisfied, they still consciously calmed down. In front of the strong man in the Jindan realm, they still did not dare to act rashly.

After taking a look around, Ye Lingjun said, "The fifth round is very important. The city lord may come to check it out in person."

“I didn’t expect that the city lord would be able to come.”

"I see. Thirty spirit stones are worth it to see the city lord."

"If he gets excited at that time, he might talk about his insights into cultivation, which would be very beneficial to listen to."

After hearing this, the dissatisfied voices below gradually faded away.

"Forget it. With those thirty spirit stones, I might as well buy a pill to improve my strength."

Xu Feng whispered that the high cost had made him lose the desire to continue watching.

"That's right. I only earn thirty spirit stones a year."

Those people around who were in the early stages of foundation building agreed and stood back.

"My fellow Taoists, there are demon cultivators causing chaos in the northwest of Bailuzhou and killing many people. Why don't we go and take a look?" someone suggested. After sitting in this position for so many days, everyone around has become familiar with each other.

"No, I still have to practice in seclusion."

"I have errands to do, too."

Everyone's eyes immediately became alert.

The man smiled awkwardly and stopped talking.

There was nothing left for them to do next, and people began to disperse.

"Brother Lu, how do you feel?"

After leaving the pagoda and walking in Liushuang City, Xu Feng asked.

After Lu Luan pondered for a while, he said lightly: "I have witnessed the wonders of alchemy."

Although he didn't quite understand it, he could sense the mystery of alchemy.

Dozens or even hundreds of medicinal qi need to be made to blend and react with each other. Even if there is a mistake in a single medicinal qi, it will cause damage to the elixir. It takes people's spirit into consideration extremely, and just thinking about it makes people anxious.

"I heard that alchemists are not strong in cultivation. I wonder if it's true." Xu Feng said.

"My cultivation strength will definitely be weaker than those at the same level. I have to delve into the art of alchemy, so I don't have time to practice any magical powers." Lu Luan said.

It is indeed as he said, ordinary cultivators practice magical powers in order to fight better and exert the strength of their cultivation, but alchemists do not have the time and do not need to do so.

Although there are people in the world who are powerful in combat and have profound attainments in alchemy, they are extremely rare and only exist in the top large sects and big families. Ordinary forces simply do not have the ability to cultivate such people.

"Brother Xu, you said you were poisoned by a snake, are you still feeling well?"

"I have fully recovered. The Purple Fin Clan's medicine is really good."

The two of them chatted as they left the city and returned to Baidang Mountain.
