Chapter 133 Xiao Yuan’s Prospects
Since he was already exposed to the art of alchemy, Xiao Yuan recognized at a glance that the elixir to be refined for this assessment should be a second-grade healing elixir.
However, generally this kind of elixir is probably only worth a few hundred or thousands of gold coins on the market. Compared with those elixirs that can improve fighting spirit, it is undoubtedly much inferior.
This healing elixir requires six kinds of medicinal materials, which all seem to be common healing medicinal materials. Their main functions are to regenerate broken bones, repair internal injuries, and stop internal injuries from bleeding.
Obviously, the function of this elixir should be to treat some extremely serious internal injuries.
However, some common healing elixirs on the market do not have similar ratios. Obviously, this should be a new healing elixir specially prepared by the Alchemist Guild for this competition. In a sense, this is equivalent to A prescription for a second-grade elixir was provided free of charge to all the alchemists participating in the conference. In the Gama Empire, this was already considered a big deal.
Although there are various types of healing elixirs, they ultimately lead to the same goal by different paths. The methods for refining these healing elixirs are actually very similar, but they differ in complexity. A second-grade elixir is, after all, a second-grade elixir, and its difficulty is At the second-grade level, with Xiao Yan's current strength, it would probably not be difficult to refine this new elixir.
After all, Xiao Yan is a disciple who can satisfy even an alchemy master like Yao Lao. Such a test is very easy for him!
As for Xiao Yuan, although he is still not able to freely integrate wood attribute fighting energy into fire attribute fighting energy, under the guidance of Yao Lao, he has actually begun to try to directly refine elixirs with strange fire.
To become an alchemist, first of all, one's own attribute belongs to fire, and secondly, the fire body must also contain a trace of wood energy for the catalytic effect of refining medicine!
But according to Yao Lao's research, if there is really no other way, you can directly use strange fire to refine it. Although without the catalysis of wood gas, the success rate of refining the medicine will be much lower, but if you have a strong enough soul perception, If so, it can barely be refined, but the effect will be slightly worse than that produced by ordinary alchemists.
However, the advantage is that under such harsh conditions, Xiao Yuan can accumulate enough experience in refining medicine!
But until now when he came into contact with refining medicine, Xiao Yuan's medicine refining level was barely as strong as a first-class alchemist. In the current pharmacist conference, if it was just about the level of refining medicinal materials, Xiao Yuan still had the strength to fight, but if it was compared to Refining the complete elixir.
However, in response to Xiao Yuan's situation, Yao Lao has planned some new ideas for refining medicine.
As the only person in the Dou Qi Continent who currently possesses five Dou Qi attributes, Xiao Yuan can fully target the effect of the elixir and add other attributes of Dou Qi in addition to the fire and wood attributes during the refining process to enhance the effect of the elixir. Effect.
According to Yao Lao's speculation, if Xiao Yuan can really succeed by then, the elixir refined by Xiao Yuan, or even if he succeeds in refining medicine and develops some prescriptions in the future, it can become his unique signature, which can be said to have a bright future. .
This idea also made Xiao Yuan feel ecstatic.
If someone else said this, no, most people would probably not think of this. Even if they did, Xiao Yuan felt that the other person was just having a big imagination.
But as Yao Lao, Xiao Yuan understood that this was by no means a wild shot, but a conjecture that Yao Lao had inferred based on his experience in refining medicine over the years, and it was very likely to become a fact.
Once successful, it will be obvious that the elixirs refined by Xiao Yuan in the future will be highly personal and of excellent quality.
"Teacher, Xiaoyan doesn't seem to be in a hurry!"
Xiao Yan, who was looking down, was reading the information on the tissue paper slowly, while the other people had already started to activate the flames and started refining. Xiao Yuan also smiled and asked in his heart.
Before leaving this morning, Xiao Yuan handed Xiao Yuan the simple black ring with Yao Lao's residence. It is said that Yao Lao did not want Xiao Yan to become dependent on his own power, so for this conference, Yao Lao temporarily Will stay with Xiao Yuan.
In other words, Xiao Yan can only rely on his own hard power to compete for the championship of the Alchemist Conference.
"Haha, sharpening a knife is as good as chopping firewood. This elixir is not difficult to practice. With Xiao Yan's current strength, as long as he does everything he needs to do, he can still succeed even if he refines it for the first time. Even , the effect of the elixir will not be weak."
The old laughter sounded in Xiao Yuan's heart with a sense of appreciation.
"Well, with Xiaoyan's strength, refining a second-grade elixir is indeed not a difficult test. Looking at the scene of them refining the elixir below, to be honest, I feel a little itchy, but I contacted It will only take a few months to refine the medicine, and the current fighting spirit problem has not been completely solved. I am afraid that I will be humiliating myself by going up to the competition, and I have to wait until I advance to the Dou Ling class before making any plans."
Xiao Yuan smiled in agreement upon hearing this, and then sighed helplessly.
After hearing this, Yao Lao was silent for a moment and then said in a deep voice:
"Your talent is also rare in the world. You are born unable to absorb Dou Qi and can only condense the Dou Qi whirlpool. You can actually use the skills to turn the five internal organs into a house of Qi and absorb Dou Qi with the five internal organs. , and makes it have five attributes. Such a magical technique is comparable to the technique that Xiao Yan is currently practicing, which is the Devouring Fire Evolution Level, Burning Technique.
To be honest, I am quite curious now, what will happen when I advance to the Fighting King level and completely connect the five qi palaces, and the five qi can flow freely, as you said. "
Listening to Yao Lao's words, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I have been looking forward to it for a long time, but it's a pity that I have just broken through to the three-star fighting master, and it still takes some time to reach the fighting spirit level. The hard training, let alone Dou Wang!"
"Haha, don't be dissatisfied. The speed of your cultivation is probably inferior to that of even the geniuses that some big forces have spent their resources cultivating. In just three years, you can directly jump from Dou Qi to Great Dou Master. This speed is really impressive. So scary!”
Yao Lao said with a smile upon hearing this.
When Xiao Yuan heard this, it was difficult to say whether it was because he was worried about the enemies who had not yet appeared, so he had no choice but to smile and said:
"Teacher, there are countless strong people on the mainland. In the past years, I watched my peers gradually become stronger, but I couldn't practice myself. Although I don't show it on weekdays, I still feel very sorry in my heart. Now that I know my talent Not bad, naturally I want to make up for everything I missed in the past!
After all, only the strong are qualified and capable to travel across the entire continent. I can't predict when and where accidents will occur. What I can do is to become stronger little by little, have more endurance, and cope with it. The ability to be unexpected, only in this way can you be calm and unhurried when the unexpected comes. "
"Is it because of Nalan Yanran's incident?"
Yao Lao thought for a while and asked.
"That's right. Ever since we were born, my father has been very protective of us brothers. In Wutan City, even though the Jialie family and the Oba family jointly suppressed us at the beginning, as the young master of the Xiao family, I also learned from my experience. Live such a bad thing.
Originally, I thought that Nalan Yanran was a perfect match for Xiao Yan, who was still a genius back then. A genius boy and a genius girl. Later, when Xiao Yan's cultivation level declined, I stopped thinking about it. How could I ever think about it? The unlucky guy whose engagement was annulled turned out to be me.
Although Nalan Yanran's mind was relatively simple at that time, as long as she said some soft words and took advantage of her sympathy, she would not make things too ugly, but when she came with Kuzu Ye, there was no doubt that she was She has the intention to use her power to suppress others. It is impossible for the Nalan Mansion to give her this power, and only the Yunlan Sect can give it to her.
Haha, after all, Yun Yun has a soft ear. As long as Nalan Yanran talks hard, Yun Yun will agree to her breaking off the engagement.
To this day, when I think back to how I had no choice but to compromise, I still feel uncomfortable. I don’t want something like this to happen again. For this reason, I will work hard to practice until no one can threaten me or threaten me. My family. "
Listening to Xiao Yuan's relaxed tone, but there was a heavy meaning in his words, Yao Lao also sighed for a while. Although this was not exactly the same as him back then, it was undoubtedly very similar!
After a while, Yao Lao said in a deep voice:
"Since you think so, the teacher also respects your choice. Although your technique is special and I have never seen it before, I can't give you any advice. But at least in terms of alchemy, I promise to make both you and Xiao Yan become The top alchemist on the continent. By then, anyone who wants to harm you will have to consider the power that a top alchemist represents!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan also said gratefully in his heart: "Thank you, teacher."
"Haha, why are you so polite? I accept you two as my disciples because I have been caught in the rain before and I just want to hold an umbrella for you. Your achievements in the future will mainly depend on your own efforts. I can help you. , actually not much.”
Yao Lao smiled lightly when he heard this.
But Xiao Yuan could hear that there was an inexplicable sadness mixed in this laughter.
But there were some things that Yao Lao didn't take the initiative to say, and Xiao Yuan didn't dare to ask. At that moment, he also focused his attention on the field again. When he saw that Xiao Yan was using Qinglian Earth Core Fire to refine, he was also stunned. After a moment, Then he suddenly realized:
Today, Xiao Yan no longer has the ability to use purple fire. After all, this purple fire is made from the saliva of the sky-swallowing python and the accompanying amethyst source. Now the sky-swallowing python follows Xiao Yuan and wakes up. He still hasn't woken up from his sleep, so it is obviously unlikely that he will spit on Xiao Yan.
However, if you use strange fire to refine medicine, then this healing elixir should be within reach!
It's no wonder that the little princess would take a fancy to Xiao Yan's talent. Being able to obtain the strange fire, there is naturally an expert behind him. Such a person is completely worthy of the royal family.
However, last night he also exposed the strange fire. The fact that both brothers have strange fire is probably a bit too shocking. In this case, it is no wonder that Mu Chen came to apologize in person. It seems that the analysis His backstory is not simple, which is why he has such a low profile.
After all, if the leaders of the forces in the Imperial Capital believe that Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan obtained the strange fire all because of Hai Bodong, then it is better to believe that there are experts behind Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan!
Therefore, Jia Xingtian also brought the eldest princess here today, and his attitude was much warmer than last night!
Xiao Yuan was thinking thoughtfully here, but the competition below came to an end as time passed.
Unsurprisingly, although Xiao Yan started refining the elixir a little later than Liu Ling and the little princess, he still took the lead and refined the elixir by taking advantage of the strange fire.
"clang!"
The clear sound of clapping the tripod sounded in the square.
Xiao Yan slapped his palm heavily on the cauldron, and the cauldron lid was ejected. A round pill flew out and was fished into a jade bottle by him.
"Cang! Cang!"
A moment later, there were two more crisp sounds. On the side, Liu Ling and the little princess completed the refining at the same time and put the elixir into the jade bottle.
"Dang, Dang, Dang..."
Following these two voices, there seemed to be a chain reaction in the huge square. The lids of the cauldrons were ejected one by one. Hundreds of pills of different shapes were ejected from the cauldrons and faced towards them. They flew away in the sky, and then were grabbed into the hands of their owner excitedly.
After a cursory glance, Xiao Yuan withdrew his eyes with some boredom. Most of the people here couldn't even call the elixirs they refined!
I can only call it pills because the appearance is really unflattering!
Among them, Xiao Yan's elixir has the best appearance.
And after a while, the game time ended, and the last few grains of sand in the huge hourglass used for timing finally poured down completely. Suddenly, hundreds of red rays of light appeared on the huge square, from those The stone platform in front of the alchemist, who still had not yet refined the finished elixir, lit up.
Looking disappointedly at the flashing red light in front of them, the alchemists could only shake their heads with a wry smile, then took back their respective medicine cauldrons and walked out of the square with dejected faces.
At the VIP table, Xiao Yuan curled his lips. This was just the first round of assessment, and nearly one-third of the contestants were eliminated. This conference was strict enough, but if it were him. , unless Yao Lao gives some off-site support, he will be the same unlucky guy who will be eliminated.
Yao Lao did not make any comments. After all, in his opinion, Xiao Yan's level was naturally enough to successfully pass the first test. Needless to say, the strength of his disciple Yao Chen!
Hai Bodong, who was not far away, also had a bored look on his face. In his opinion, Xiao Yan's participation in such a competition was like killing the novice village with full-level accounts. He could be the first to refine the elixir, or even get the prize. The best results are all things that should be taken for granted.
Of course, this is because these three people understand Xiao Yan's strength, so they make this judgment. The conference must still follow the rules of the conference.
