Chapter 110: The Time It Takes To Burn An Incense Stick!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Grand Elder of the Alchemy Sect was second only to the Sect Master of the Alchemy Sect.
The third round was hosted by the Grand Elder.
At this moment, there were only 20 people left on the empty ground.
As for the audience seats, because this round was held in the inner sect of the alchemy sect, those who were here were also people with great backgrounds in the Central Region.
They were all extremely powerful existences!
The number of people naturally decreased.
At this moment, the Grand Elder looked at the alchemists on the venue and could not help but frown.
Why is there one less person?
However, he did not care too much.
So be it.
Just as he was about to start…
Hu Qing came to the judging table and told him the whole story.
The Grand Elder frowned slightly and said, “So what? Since it’s time, we naturally have to start.”
Even if he could enter the top 20, he could not allow the Alchemy Sect to give him special privileges.
The Alchemy Sect was the orthodox alchemy sect.
It was the holy land of all alchemists in the world!
There was no reason for them to wait.
Seeing this, Hu Qing could only smile bitterly.
In the audience seats, Mu Wan’er watched this scene and looked around. “Uncle isn’t back yet?”
Uncle Li shook his head and said regretfully, “I’m afraid he won’t be able to make it. Even though the Alchemy Sect is low-key, these alchemists are proud and arrogant. They won’t extend the start time for him.”
Anxiety flashed across Mu Wan’er’s eyes.
In the audience seats, there were also people from large factions who began to wonder.
“Oh? The person who created the pill formula didn’t come?”
“It’s a pity, Patriarch wants me to try to rope in this alchemist.”
Someone mocked, “Looks like this alchemist looks down on the Alchemy Sect. He didn’t even participate in the last round of the Alchemy Conference!”
“I’m afraid he will also offend the Alchemy Sect because of this…”
“The Alchemy Sect shouldn’t be so petty.”
In the venue.
Zhong Li looked around for Lu Changsheng.
Seeing that he didn’t come, his face couldn’t help but sink.
It was the same for Xie Yuanren.
They all wanted to defeat Lu Changsheng in this round!
At this moment, the Grand Elder announced, “Everyone, you can begin. The time limit is still four hours.”
With that, the alchemists could only focus on refining pills.
The content of this competition was simple.
It was to refine the highest quality medicinal pills that the current alchemists could refine.
The person who refined medical pills with the highest quality would win!
This time, the Alchemy Sect did not provide any ingredients. All the ingredients would be prepared by the alchemists themselves!
If the first round tested the alchemist’s ability to observe mistakes.
The second round was a test of adaptability.
And this third round was a direct test of an alchemist’s true ability!
Everyone began to take out the medicinal pills that they were best at and began to refine!
For a time, the square was ablaze with flames!
Hu Qing returned to the audience and shook his head with a bitter smile.
It was a pity that he had missed an opportunity to shake the Central Region.
However, there was nothing he could do.
It was for his disciple after all. With Hong Ying’s talent, her safety was much more important than this Alchemy Conference.
Seconds ticked by.
More than two hours had passed.
Gradually, medicinal fragrance spread out from the venue.
Obviously, some alchemists had already reached the pill formation stage!
One of them was Zhong Li!
Zhong Li had a confident expression as he slapped the pill furnace!
Immediately, the medicinal fragrance was like a shock wave and soared into the sky!
This scene attracted everyone’s attention.
Even the Grand Elder opened his eyes and nodded slightly.
“Looks like there will be good seedlings in this alchemy conference.”
Zhong Li shouted, “The pill is done!”
Immediately, a medicinal pill emitting a green light shot out from the pill furnace!
Zhong Li took it and looked at Xie Yuanren provocatively. Then, under the attention of the large factions in the audience, he brought the Pure Jade Bottle to the judges’ table.
He handed the jade bottle to the Grand Elder respectfully.
Seeing this, the Grand Elder nodded and took the pill from him.
After sizing it up, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly as he said, “Not bad. This Glazed Pill is only one step away from entering the category of an Earth-rank medicinal pill. The impurities are also controlled at 30%.”
Hearing the Grand Elder’s judgment, Zhong Li revealed a satisfied smile.
He had been practicing this Glazed Pill for several months.
His proficiency could be said to have reached the peak.
He could also control it to contain only 30% of the impurities!
Zhong Li even thought that he would definitely get the first place this time!
In the audience, the people from the major forces nodded.
This ability alone was already a reason to rope him in.
This person was worth winning over!
One after another, more people handed the pills to the Grand Elder.
The Grand Elder shook his head and nodded at times.
“Earth Fire Pill, medium-grade Mystic-Tier, 50% impurities.”
“Bright Yang Pill, high-grade Profound-rank, 60% impurities.”
“Spirit Fiend Pill, medium-grade Mystic-Tier, 40% impurities.”
At this moment, Xie Yuanren had also finished refining the pill. He held the jade bottle and walked confidently towards the Grand Elder.
The Grand Elder took it and sized it up.
He nodded in satisfaction and said, “Yin Essence Pill, infinitely close to an Earth-rank medicinal pill. It has 30% impurities.”
Hearing this, Xie Yuanren’s eyes revealed joy!
Zhong Li’s face darkened.
It was infinitely close to the Earth-rank!
This was clearly of a higher level than his Glazed Pill!
Moreover, the impurities were controlled at 30%!
Obviously, Xie Yuanren’s pill ranking was higher than his!
At the same time, he was also the person with the highest ranking among the people present!
“Hmm, I can also pay attention to this person.”
“He’s a good seedling. We can give him more compensation. Let’s see if he’s willing to be our guest elder.”
“But he’s more inclined to the Alchemy Sect…”
“So what? If we pay him enough, he’ll naturally join us.”
For large factions, their foundation was not much weaker than the Alchemy Sect.
As long as they gave enough remuneration, they would naturally be able to rope in these alchemists.
At this moment, there was not much time left.
Half of the second last incense stick had been burned!
On the stage, all the alchemists had finished refining.
Lu Changsheng was still nowhere to be seen.
Hu Qing could not help but sigh.
Pity. If Changsheng was still around, they would all be reduced to nothingness.
Mu Wan’er was also a little disappointed.
“Uncle is clearly stronger than them…”
At this moment, the Grand Elder had already thought of the rankings.
Just as he was about to announce the ranking…
A stream of light flashed!
A man appeared in the venue of the Alchemy Conference!
“Huh?”
The Grand Elder looked up with a frown. “Who are you?” He asked
When Hu Qing saw the man, his face lit up.
Mu Wan’er smiled sweetly and jumped up. “Uncle is here!”
It was Lu Changsheng!
Lu Changsheng looked around and couldn’t help but ask, “Is it over?”
Now that the Grand Elder knew Lu Changsheng’s identity, his face darkened. “You’re no longer qualified.”
Lu Changsheng pointed at the incense stick and said, “There’s still an incense stick left.”
The Grand Elder was stunned. “What can you do with that?”
At this moment, a voice transmission appeared in the Grand Elder’s mind.
Hearing this, the Grand Elder had a complicated expression on his face. He nodded and looked at Lu Changsheng. “Sure, as long as you can complete it within the specified time.”
There was only an incense stick’s worth of time left!
