The first volume debuts Chapter 49 Alchemy Competition!
There was actually another reason why Li Xuanfeng came to the Alchemy Pavilion. He was always a little short of refining the perfect Spiritual Base Pill and seemed unable to make a breakthrough. He had previously asked the Five Elements Venerable how to refine the perfect Spiritual Base Pill as quickly as possible. The Five Elements Venerable replied that he needed the power of the alchemy furnace and that he needed an alchemy furnace of relatively high quality.
When Li Xuanfeng saw the price of the alchemy furnace, he had to give up temporarily. For him, who had just spent all his money to refine the body-building spirit liquid, it was too expensive. Even a relatively ordinary alchemy furnace required hundreds or thousands of spirit stones, and a superior one even cost thousands of spirit stones.
After hearing Ouyang Shan say that he could use the resources of the Alchemy Pavilion, Li Xuanfeng decided to go and see if he could borrow the alchemy furnace.
Soon, the two arrived at the entrance of the Medicine Pavilion. They saw that the Medicine Pavilion looked similar to the Trading Pavilion, also a huge three-story attic. The difference was that there were a lot of alchemy furnaces carved on the attic, with a lot of complex patterns carved on the furnaces, with a vicissitudes of life. And there was a strong medicinal fragrance wafting out of the attic, which was refreshing.
After the two entered the Alchemy Pavilion, an old man with gray hair walked out and smiled kindly when he saw Li Xuanfeng and Ouyang Shan. Li Xuanfeng saw that there were four alchemy furnaces on the red robe the old man was wearing, while there were two alchemy furnaces on Ouyang Shan's clothes.
"Grandpa, I have brought the person to you." Ouyang Shan respectfully reported to the old man. Li Xuanfeng was a little surprised. He thought the old man should be an elder of the Pill Pavilion or above. He didn't expect that he was Ouyang Shan's grandfather.
"Mr. Li, my name is Ouyang Danqing, and I'm the elder of the Alchemy Pavilion. I sincerely invite you to join the Alchemy Pavilion." Although the old man had gray hair, he looked very healthy and said with a smile.
"Elder Ouyang, if I join the Alchemy Pavilion, can I use your superior alchemy furnace?" Li Xuanfeng asked, stating the main purpose of his visit to the Alchemy Pavilion.
"Do you think that just any Tom, Dick or Harry can join the Medicine Pavilion? And you even dream of using a superior alchemy furnace." A young man in black came over, his contemptuous voice echoing undisguisedly.
The young man in black who had just arrived at the Alchemy Pavilion noticed Ouyang Danqing and was about to come over to ask about alchemy, hoping to gain Ouyang Danqing's appreciation.
But he saw Li Xuanfeng, whom he hated to the core, standing next to Ouyang Shan. He did not hear Elder Ouyang's invitation to Li Xuanfeng, but just as he came over, he heard Li Xuanfeng's questions to Elder Ouyang.
Upon hearing that, Li Xuanfeng looked over calmly and instantly recognized that it was the leading disciple of the First Peak who he had teased with his explosive pill in the competition.
The young man in black hated Li Xuanfeng so much because of what happened in the competition space that he fell into a coma after being teleported out. It took him more than half a month to recover. He had wanted to take revenge on Li Xuanfeng for a long time, but he had never found the opportunity.
This time, when he heard Li Xuanfeng asking Elder Ouyang, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he immediately mocked Li Xuanfeng. In his opinion, Li Xuanfeng was just a reckless man who could only fight with brute force, and it was impossible for him to achieve much in alchemy.
"Chen Wei, be careful with your words." Ouyang Shan saw her grandfather's frown and warned the man in black with a hint of disgust.
"Senior Sister Ouyang, although my words may not sound nice, what I said is not wrong." The black-clothed man Chen Wei continued to speak in the same tone after hearing what Ouyang Shan said.
Chen Wei has always admired Ouyang Shan. When he heard Ouyang Shan speaking for Li Xuanfeng, new and old grudges piled up together and became out of control.
The black-clothed man Chen Wei didn't believe it. He couldn't beat Li Xuanfeng in combat power, and it was impossible for him to be inferior to Li Xuanfeng with his talent in alchemy. Since Li Xuanfeng came to the Alchemy Pavilion, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him. He wanted to find a way to compete in alchemy here and severely humiliate Li Xuanfeng.
"In our Alchemy Pavilion, alchemists are divided into different levels. Only alchemists above level two can use the alchemy furnaces of the Alchemy Pavilion. And the superior alchemy furnaces have even higher requirements. Even I am not qualified to use them. How can you, a reckless man, be dreaming here?" Chen Wei said with great disdain.
After Chen Wei finished healing his wounds at the end of the competition, he secluded himself for a while and broke through to the Spiritual Foundation Realm. He was now able to refine mid-grade Spiritual Foundation Pills. He was feeling very proud recently, but he didn't expect Li Xuanfeng to come to him. He took this opportunity to completely put him down.
Chen Wei thought to himself, I want you to know that when it comes to alchemy, you can’t even beat me by a finger.
"You came to the Medicine Pavilion to take the alchemist test, why don't we have a competition?" Chen Wei's voice was filled with absolute confidence in himself.
"Okay, let me see your superb alchemy skills." Li Xuanfeng agreed with a smile.
Chen Wei showed a malicious smile on his face, as if his evil plan had succeeded and he was just waiting to watch Li Xuanfeng make a fool of himself and humiliate him severely.
Chen Wei had to admit that he was no match for Li Xuanfeng in terms of combat power. Although he had already entered the Spiritual Foundation Realm, he had heard that Li Xuanfeng had hunted a Spiritual Foundation Middle Stage Spiritual Beast in the second trial layer. This made him, who had wanted to cause trouble for Li Xuanfeng after breaking through to the Spiritual Foundation Realm, reluctantly give in.
Ouyang Shan was very dissatisfied with Chen Wei's picking quarrels in front of her, and was about to scold him again, but was stopped by her grandfather Ouyang Danqing. Ouyang Danqing was just wanting to see Li Xuanfeng's attainments in alchemy, and Chen Wei's provocation was exactly what he meant.
"Then let me be the notary for your competition." Ouyang Danqing offered.
"Thank you for the testimony, Elder Ouyang. I feel honored." Chen Wei immediately smiled, which was exactly what he wanted. He had always wanted to show off in front of Ouyang Danqing, but he had never had the chance. He didn't expect that this time he could not only humiliate Li Xuanfeng severely, but also show off in front of Ouyang Danqing. Chen Wei felt that he was a little too lucky today.
When Li Xuanfeng heard Ouyang Danqing's words, he did not say anything, but just looked at the old man with a smile, which made Ouyang Danqing instantly know that Li Xuanfeng saw through his thoughts.
The conversation between the few people was heard by the disciples of the Pill Pavilion nearby, and they looked at Li Xuanfeng with a bit of pity. Chen Wei had already refined a medium-grade Spiritual Foundation Pill after entering the Spiritual Foundation Realm, and although Li Xuanfeng was very powerful, that meant that he spent a lot of time practicing, and his alchemy skills were definitely not comparable to Chen Wei's.
And Chen Wei is a man with a sharp tongue, and Li Xuanfeng will certainly be subjected to his continuous and merciless ridicule.
Several people came to an alchemy room on the first floor. All the disciples who were watching were isolated outside the door. Alchemy is best done in a quiet environment, otherwise it is easy to be distracted and lead to failure.
There are two large alchemy furnaces in this alchemy room, but they are just ordinary furnaces. Chen Wei usually uses this kind of furnace. The superior furnaces are only in the hands of high-level alchemists or people with more prominent status.
"Then let's compete in refining the Spiritual Base Pill? Oh, is that too high a requirement? Can you refine the Spiritual Base Pill?" In order to perform in front of Ouyang Danqing, Chen Wei proposed to refine the Spiritual Base Pill, and then asked Li Xuanfeng with sarcasm.
"Okay, no problem, then let's refine the Spiritual Base Pill." Li Xuanfeng said indifferently. Chen Wei's eyes were full of sarcasm, letting you continue to pretend and see how you will make a fool of yourself later.
"The contest of refining the Spiritual Foundation Pill has three refining opportunities. The winner is the one who refines the best quality pill." Ouyang Danqing made the rules. Because there is a failure rate in refining pills, three refining opportunities are more fair. If you can't refine a Spiritual Foundation Pill in three times, it can only mean that you have poor talent in refining pills.
Li Xuanfeng and Chen Wei each chose a furnace. Li Xuanfeng took out herbs from his storage bag and was about to start refining them when Chen Wei's mocking voice echoed again.
"You country bumpkin, did you tamper with the herbs to cheat?"
At this time, Ouyang Danqing sent someone to fetch the herbs for refining Lingji Dan. Li Xuanfeng then realized that in the alchemy competition, the herbs were usually provided by the notary office to prevent the contestants from tampering with the herbs.
" I'm sorry , I have never participated in an alchemy competition and don't understand the rules." Li Xuanfeng touched the back of his head and apologized to Ouyang Danqing a little embarrassedly.
Ouyang Shan couldn't help but chuckle when she saw Li Xuanfeng's embarrassing look. Ouyang Danqing couldn't help but shake his head, thinking, could it be that the information was wrong? Li Xuanfeng didn't look like someone with a strong talent for alchemy. If the information was wrong, wouldn't it be a waste of his precious time for alchemy?
