Chapter 408 The game begins

Time passed slowly, and soon, the ten finalists arrived one after another.

After each contestant found his own seat and sat down, he began to close his eyes and rest, adjusting his mind to the best state.

More and more onlookers began to gather around, and the noise began to get louder and louder. The square became like a vegetable market.

"Dong..."

Finally, with the sound of a loud bell, the square finally fell into silence. All the onlookers stopped talking and looked at the ten people in the center of the square with excitement.

Among them, the most attention was focused on Long Xuan, the old ancestor Fentian, and the old ancestor Qi Tian.

The vast number of Long clan Gu cultivators who were watching all focused their eyes on Long Xuan, clenched their fists, and showed a nervous look. Obviously, all Long clan Gu cultivators have regarded him as the hope of the whole clan.

The sound of the bell echoed in the crowd for a long time. After the sound of the bell disappeared, Feng Tiancheng finally stood up, looked around, and said in a deep voice:

"Today is the last round of the Western Region Alchemy Competition. After many rounds of screening, only ten people have successfully entered the finals. These ten people can almost be called the most talented genius alchemists in the entire Western Region."

"After this alchemy competition, you are enough to be labeled as the top ten alchemy geniuses in the Western Region. Compared with the rewards for the top ten in the alchemy competition, I think this title is the most important to you."

Feng Tiancheng looked at the ten geniuses and said with a smile.

Hearing this, the geniuses in the square really showed excitement. Long Yuyao, Feng Shuang, and Wang Wu all raised their heads proudly and showed pride.

Long Xuan, the old ancestor Fentian, and the old ancestor Qi Tian were very calm, and the three of them had no expression.

Especially Long Xuan, the title of the top ten alchemy geniuses in the Western Region did not make him feel emotional. He didn't care about these reputations at all.

In his opinion, being too famous is not necessarily a good thing. It is safest to keep a low profile when walking in the Gu world. Exposure to the sun will eventually be burdened by fame.

Feng Tiancheng retracted his gaze and continued: "It is my honor to personally host this high-level alchemy competition. I will not waste any more words."

"In this round of competition, contestants can refine any kind of elixir. In the end, the judges will score according to the value of the elixir. You can use your own materials or ask the organizer for the materials. Now the competition officially begins!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd below cheered excitedly.

Long Xuan was also awakened by the cheers around him. He finally opened his eyes and whispered: "Is it finally started? I'm afraid that this battle will use all my skills!"

He took out the Tianjin Alchemy Furnace from the storage ring and placed it heavily on the floor tiles in front of him.

He did not start refining the elixir immediately. He first paid attention to the old ancestor Fentian and Duan Tianwu.

Duan Tianwu first took action and placed a huge green alchemy furnace heavily on the floor tiles. The moment the huge alchemy furnace fell, the floor tiles were instantly smashed and began to crack, and dense cracks slowly appeared, which showed how heavy this huge alchemy furnace was.

Duan Tianwu opened the lid of the alchemy furnace a little, and put his finger wearing the storage ring into it. One after another, spiritual medicine flew out of the storage ring and fell steadily into the alchemy furnace.

With his operation, others could not know what spiritual medicine he threw into the alchemy furnace, let alone the recipe of this medicine.

Doing so is to keep it confidential to the greatest extent.

At this time, all the judges showed a look of disappointment and sighed secretly that it was cunning.

Everyone can see that Duan Tianwu must refine a very heaven-defying elixir, but now it seems that the recipe of this heaven-defying elixir is obviously free.

After putting the elixir into the alchemy furnace, Duan Tianwu pulled his fingers out, and the heavy lid of the alchemy furnace closed again. A ball of golden flame suddenly burned under the furnace, releasing a blazing temperature.

As soon as this fire came out, the alchemy fires just released by other contestants swayed wildly, as if blown by the wind, and soon went out, and the whole audience suddenly exclaimed.

"Golden flame! What kind of fire is this? It's so terrifying!"

"It seems to be the Heavenly Fire. Legend has it that when Heavenly Fire appears, all other fires will be extinguished. I didn't believe it before, but now it seems that the legend is true."

"Tsk tsk, once the Heavenly Fire appears, the other contestants may not even be able to refine pills. I didn't expect to see the legendary Heavenly Fire in this alchemy competition."

"This flame..." On the high platform, Wang Hu was shocked and said with a surprised face: "Is this the Emperor's Tomb Golden Fire ranked 20th in the Heavenly Fire List?"

Qin Shang looked solemn and said seriously: "Golden flame, exuding the aura of a king, can burn anything with gold. It should be this fire."

"I didn't expect that the Qitian Patriarch could even subdue the Emperor's Tomb Golden Fire. The Heavenly Fire ranked so high is no longer something that the Gu King can subdue."

Long Xiaoyao frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he said solemnly: "I heard that he has improved the Xiaoqiang Gu, and can transplant powerful organs of alien races into his body."

"His body has long been non-human. I would not be surprised if he swallowed the tenth-ranked Sky Fire with such a strong physique."

"Hehe!" The gambling god sitting in the first place laughed: "It seems that Duan Tianwu is also forced into a corner, and even such a trump card is exposed."

"The Golden Fire of the Imperial Mausoleum can burn anything without gold. With such a flame in hand, I am afraid that no spiritual weapon in the world can hurt him, and he will be even more difficult to deal with..."

At this time, in the square, the Dan Fire of all the contestants was extinguished under the suppression of the Sky Fire, and they had to run to the edge of the square with ugly faces and set up a formation plate at the edge of the square to isolate the influence of the Sky Fire on the other spiritual fires.

The biggest feature of the Heavenly Fire is heat. The high temperature it produces is definitely not something a normal Gu cultivator can bear.

At this time, the Heavenly Fire produced a fatal high temperature. The square instantly turned into a furnace. Even if the other contestants hid far away, they were all sweating profusely. How could they concentrate on refining the elixir?

The scorching heat baked the earth. The onlookers all showed painful expressions and retreated frantically like a tide.

At this time, the only ones who were not affected were probably Long Xuan and the Patriarch Fentian.

Long Xuan's body refining method was special. He needed to swim in the magma and bathe in the Heavenly Fire frequently. He had long been accustomed to the heat. This temperature was just child's play for him.

He was sitting closest to Duan Tianwu and was at the center of the high temperature, but he seemed to be fine at this time.

Another person who was fine was the Patriarch Fentian. The Patriarch Fentian snorted coldly, and finally took out a black alchemy furnace and put his finger with a storage ring into the alchemy furnace.

After putting the spiritual medicine into the alchemy furnace, he finally released his Heavenly Fire.

Soon.

The 31st ranked Nine Netherworld Fire appeared.

The 29th ranked Nine Heavens Bright Moon Fire appeared.

The 25th ranked Extinction of Life Flame appeared.

The three great heavenly fires burned the bottom of the alchemy furnace, and the temperature in the field rose sharply again. Both the contestants in the square and the spectators around were miserable.

Long Xuan had already determined that the two of them were going to refine the fourth-grade elixir. How could he dare to hide his incompetence at this time? He gritted his teeth and prepared to refine the fourth-grade elixir.

So he was not willing to be lonely. He followed suit and put his finger with the storage ring into the alchemy furnace. After releasing the spiritual medicine, he pulled out his finger and used the sunset divine flame that he had never shown in front of everyone!

As soon as the sunset divine flame appeared, the temperature in the square rose to a terrifying level again.

At this time, five great heavenly fires appeared in the square at the same time. How terrifying would it be if the high temperatures generated by the five great heavenly fires were superimposed together?

At this time, the square was as hot as purgatory, and the floor tiles were baked red and cracked.

The other contestants were miserable. It was good enough to save their lives, and they had no intention of refining the elixir at all.

The onlookers were even more heat stroke, and fell to the ground in large numbers. The survivors were all terrified and retreated desperately!

"Fuck! You want to kill people!"

"Stop it! Someone is going to die!"

The crowd was in chaos...

...

"Hahaha... It's great!"

"Heavenly fire is so rare. I didn't see any last time I participated in the Western Region Alchemy Competition. I didn't expect to be lucky enough to see the scene of five Heavenly Fires appearing together today."

"Let's fight to our heart's content today!"

Duan Tianwu laughed wildly, looking at the two excitedly, with a high fighting spirit.

The old ancestor Fentian looked at the Emperor's Tomb Golden Fire under Duan Tianwu's furnace, and then looked at the Sunset Divine Flame under Long Xuan's furnace. A faint murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and then quickly disappeared.

Long Xuan could split his soul and do two things at the same time. He was refining the elixir while using his perspective eyes to secretly learn the two people's heaven-defying elixir formula.

Therefore, although this murderous intent flashed by, he was still noticed by his keenness.

Long Xuan was shocked. It was not difficult to see that the Burning Heaven Patriarch was not targeting him, but the Heavenly Fire under the furnace of the two people.

The Burning Heaven Patriarch already had three Heavenly Fires in his hands, but he still coveted the Heavenly Fire in the hands of others. He was really greedy.

Could he have a habit of collecting Heavenly Fires? Or there is an ability or skill that can become stronger by swallowing Heavenly Fires, Long Xuan thought with fear and began to be alert.

At this time, he had made up his mind. After refining the pill, he would leave his clone here to receive the award, and the main body would directly tear up the Baili Talisman and flee.

Facing such a terrifying person, he would never dare to have any luck, and this Baili Talisman must not be saved.

On the high platform, a group of judges also looked painful because of the heat, but fortunately, as a fourth-grade alchemist, he had a high resistance to high temperatures, and under the protection of the barrier, he would not be in a panic and flee.

"It's actually the 28th ranked Sunset Divine Flame. Interesting! Interesting! The five Heavenly Fires are all appearing. This match is getting more and more exciting."

The God of Gamblers showed a very interested look and watched with great interest.

He was the only person on the high platform who was not affected by the high temperature of the Heavenly Fire.

"It's really rare. Heavenly Fire is rare in the world. I have lived for most of my life as the chief alchemist of a country, and I have never seen a kind of Heavenly Fire. I didn't expect to see five kinds of Heavenly Fire at the same time today. I will die without regrets!"

On the judges' seat, an old man was so excited that he burst into tears when he saw the scene of the five fires appearing at the same time.

"Haha! The scene created by the five great heavenly fires gathering together is truly terrifying."

"The current temperature is just the beginning, it's just warming up the furnace. The temperature will get higher and higher, not only will it burn the onlookers to death, but it will also affect the entire city, and the other contestants in the field will have no intention of refining the elixir."

"It seems that we have to take action."

Feng Tiancheng smiled bitterly, and before he made any move, three cylindrical barriers suddenly appeared in the field, covering Long Xuan, the old ancestor Fentian, and the old ancestor Qi Tian.

Another square barrier covered the entire square.

Under the double-layer protection, the high temperature formed by the heavenly fire was also isolated to the greatest extent.

The onlookers around finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time, sitting limply on the ground, gasping for breath.

The lingering fear in their eyes has not disappeared yet.

"Haha, they are all quite cunning, and they actually put their fingers with storage rings into the alchemy furnace, so that we can't see what spiritual medicine they threw into the alchemy furnace."

"The ancestors Burning Heaven and Qi Tian must be refining fourth-grade elixirs. You may have seen clearly what spiritual medicine Long Xuan threw into the alchemy furnace."

"Why do I feel the breath of fourth-grade spiritual medicine? Is it my illusion?" Qin Shang frowned and asked hesitantly.

"Fourth-grade spiritual medicine! How is it possible? Can he, a third-grade alchemist, refine fourth-grade elixirs? This joke is not funny at all."

"No matter how great a person is, he can't be so great. Does he still want to go to heaven?" A female judge shook her head in disbelief and joked.

However, her smile soon froze, and she looked at Long Xuan with wide eyes.

I saw Long Xuan sitting cross-legged on the ground in the field, and suddenly split into five clones, surrounding the huge alchemy furnace in front of him.

The five clones sat evenly, each controlling a group of sunset divine flames, and a total of six groups of sunset divine flames, including the original body, burned at the bottom of the alchemy furnace.

"What is he doing?"

"Why did he release his clone?"

"Is he going to create another unique alchemy method?"

The judges all frowned and showed a puzzled look. They were confused by Long Xuan's strange behavior.

When they realized that the energy fluctuations released from the alchemy furnace were those of a fourth-grade elixir, everyone's eyes widened and their faces changed drastically.

"Fuck! This is the breath of a fourth-grade elixir! This kid really wants to make a fourth-grade elixir!"

"How is it possible? He is clearly a third-grade alchemist!"

"Overstepping the level of alchemy! He wants to use that unique alchemy method to cross the level of alchemy!"

"Hiss... Overstepping the level of alchemy, fuck! Is this kid really going to defy the heavens!"

The judges were in an uproar.

At this moment, the judges were all shocked by this scene and stood up in unison.

These bigwigs who stamped their feet and shook the country seemed to have seen something extremely terrible at this time, with terrified expressions and extremely out of control.

At this moment, everyone in the audience was not calm.

After a brief silence, the God of Gamblers laughed loudly, "Hahaha... Refining pills above one's level is unprecedented! This kid is really going to defy the heavens!"

"He really didn't let me down. I knew he could create a miracle! I put all my spirit stones on him and I really wanted to kill him. Hahaha..."

Feng Tiancheng was also shocked and stood up. Seeing this scene, he showed an unbelievable look, clenched his fists, and his expression instantly became extremely ferocious.

He knew, he knew that this kid was a freak. Even if the game was a sure win, he could become a variable. It was absolutely unsafe not to kill him.

Feng Tiancheng clenched his fists and was absent-minded for a long time.

His premonition was right, and it was also right not to gamble with Long Xiaoyao. This kid really created a miracle again in this game. This time, he was in big trouble.

At this time, the ominous feeling in his heart became heavier and heavier. Could this kid really beat two fourth-grade alchemists? Despair began to grow faintly in his eyes...

At this time, Long Xiaoyao was confused. He had never expected that this outstanding junior could refine pills beyond his level. Could he be even more amazing?

Which Long family member gave birth to such a freak? The Long family really produced a talent this time.

He swallowed hard and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Refining pills beyond your level!" Duan Tianwu looked down at him and laughed: "You are indeed a genius with a level of understanding that is not inferior to mine. You can actually create such an amazing method of refining pills!"

"This game is getting more and more interesting!"

"I really don't believe it. As the former champion of the Western Region Alchemy Competition, can I lose to a junior like you? Let's see who's the winner!"

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and began to focus all his attention on the furnace of pills in front of him, but his eyes were much more solemn than before.

Patriarch Fentian also looked at Long Xuan with a solemn look, and then quickly turned his gaze away. However, the flame under his furnace trembled at this time, which showed that he was extremely uneasy at this moment. (End of this chapter)
