In the central area of Medicine King Island, hundreds of monks gathered here, waiting for the highlight of the Medicine Master Festival, the Battle of Medicine King.
For pharmacists, this is a stage to prove themselves, an opportunity to become famous, and an opportunity to witness the top level. It is a gorgeous feast not to be missed.
On the Baizhang Peak, an old woman on crutches walked out of the main hall. Looking at the sea of people in front of her, she seemed to have seen a scene from her youth.
The old woman tapped the ground lightly with her crutches, and made a long and distant buzzing sound. The sound was like the rising sun, which resounded throughout the entire Medicine King Island. Many monks heard the sound and remained silent, waiting for the Medicine King Battle to be held.
The eight Nascent Soul monks from Yaowang Island stood in eight directions. After hearing the humming sound of the old woman, they cast earth-controlling spells together. The calm ground began to tremble, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the surface.
There was a loud bang, and a huge stone platform rose from the ground. The area of the stone platform was enough to include the entire monks of Yaowang Island.
An old woman on crutches took the lead in flying towards the giant stone platform. After she landed in the center of the stone platform, a high platform was formed where she stood.
Seeing this scene, the monks present flew towards the stone platform one after another.
Half a quarter of an hour later, everyone's eyes were focused on the old woman on crutches, and no one said a word.
The old woman, who was the contemporary king of medicine, stood on the high platform and spoke loudly, her voice like a loud bell, echoing in everyone's ears.
"In the 2645th year of Xiaolin, I won the title of King of Medicine. There were countless powerful people who wanted to take the name of King of Medicine, but now the name of King of Medicine has been waiting for me. for eighteen hundred years.
Lao Shen never thought that he could keep the name of Medicine King forever. Maybe today is the day when Lao Shen takes off his crown.
I also want others to call me by my real name, not the name of Medicine King which has not changed for thousands of years. "
“The content of this Medicine King’s battle is the same as before, which is to compete in elixir refining.
Take a look at the level of the elixir,
Second, look at the quality of the elixir.
Third, look at the speed of the pill.
Medicinal materials are not allowed to be changed midway. If the elixir explodes, it will be counted as eliminated. "
Hundreds of female cultivators from Yaowang Island came to the sky holding flower baskets. They all looked exquisite and moving. In the flower baskets were pieces of petal-shaped setting stones.
The old woman stood on the high platform in the center and announced the conditions for the competition: "If you want to participate in this medicine king competition, there is only one condition: that is to melt a piece of high-quality flint within the time of one stick of incense."
There was obvious commotion among the monks below the high platform, obviously extremely dissatisfied with the harsh conditions.
"How is it possible to melt the finest fire-setting stone!"
"Can the flint be melted? Isn't that thing not afraid of fire?"
"This condition is simply embarrassing!"
…
Those who complained were a group of young pharmacists or some monks who were watching the fun. The older monks were not surprised by this entry condition.
After all, why is the title of Medicine King so contentious?
Firestone is extremely fire-resistant and has good heat storage capabilities.
It is often used by monks to stabilize the temperature of alchemy. It is not easy to melt the fire-stabilizing stone.
Simply refining with fierce fire cannot affect the Ding flint stone. It is necessary to ensure that the heat around the Ding flint stone continues to rise without any slack. This is a great test of the pharmacist's fire control level.
The old woman shouted the words that everyone had been waiting for: "In the name of the current Medicine King, I announce that the qualification test for the Medicine King competition begins now."
The female nun suspended in the sky began to wave the fire-fixing stone in the flower basket, causing a rain of petals to fall on everyone's heads.
Although everyone had complaints in their hearts, they raised their hands to catch the falling flint stone and immediately started the smelting process.
Some people used magic weapons to increase the intensity of the fire, while others used offensive fire talismans to defeat cleverness with force. Various methods were used, but with little success.
Only some veteran pharmacists used fire-controlling spells that were not too powerful to cause the fire-fixing stone to deform a little.
After a cup of tea, a strange movement occurred on the huge stone platform. A stone pillar protruded from the neat platform. On the top of the stone pillar stood the first monk who completed the competition conditions.
A monk immediately revealed the identity of this person. "That's the Yin Po of Youluomen!"
Yin Po is a hunchbacked old man, wearing a loose black robe, with fluffy and messy hair covering half of his face, and a pair of yellow teeth exposed that people don't want to look at.
The shriveled palm was burning with horrifying green flames, and a drop of transparent liquid hung above the green flames, which was the completely melted flint stone.
At this time, another stone pillar protruded and appeared, and Chu Lu from the Danxian Sect became the second monk to complete the competition conditions.
Chu Lu is middle-aged, with ordinary appearance, wearing standard monk robes, with the word "ordinary" highlighted all over his body.
As an old pharmacist who has been famous for a long time, no one is surprised by his appearance.
Ling Xinxue became the third monk to complete the competition conditions. She had silver hair, a snow-white dress, white flames burning on her delicate palms, and a drop of transparent liquid suspended above the white flames.
She had a peerless beauty, and with the support of Yin Po, she immediately became the focus of everyone's attention.
"How can there be such a beautiful woman in the world? Just by looking at her, I feel that this pharmacist event was not in vain!"
"Yes! If such a beauty could form a Taoist couple, it would be even more wonderful than ascending to heaven."
"Stop thinking nonsense, that is the disciple of the leader of the Immortal and Demon Alliance, it is not something you can expect."
"What!"
…
Ling Xinxue ignored everyone's comments about her and just searched for someone in the crowd.
The same is true for Wuya Laodao.
Ever since he informed Liu Nian of the mission given by the headmaster, he had always believed that Liu Nian would show off his skills in the battle for the King of Medicine and make the Haoqi Immortal Sect famous.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Mu Long, who was in the early stages of foundation building, nearly completed the competition conditions and became the last participant in the battle for the Medicine King.
On the giant stone platform, only ten pillars were produced, which meant that only ten people met the competition conditions, but there was no figure of Liu Nian.
Wu Ya murmured something in his heart: Will Liu Nian fail to meet the conditions?
The girl stood on the distant peak, looking at the people on the stone platform, but could not find Liu Nian's figure. She stamped her feet angrily and shouted: "I said I would teach him a lesson at that time, but now that he has run away, in the future Where can I find him?"
The Medicine King Competition was held normally. The ten qualified people stood on the same high platform as the contemporary Medicine King. After some polite greetings, the alchemy competition began.
Whether it is treating injuries or improving cultivation, pharmacists rely on elixirs to achieve this, so refining elixirs is the method that best reflects the level of a pharmacist.
Since the third item in the competition was to compare the speed of elixir making, these eleven people were all very fast in making elixirs.
However, alchemy requires a calm mind. Overly nervous emotions, coupled with the deliberately increased speed of alchemy, resulted in a young pharmacist overheating at the beginning of the competition, and the medicinal materials that had just been put into the alchemy furnace were burnt. Greatly affects the potency of the medicine.
Although this mistake does not mean that the elixir cannot be made into a pill, the quality of the final elixir will definitely not exceed the middle grade.
The young pharmacist still wanted to persevere, but his heart was already in a state of anxiety. How could he remain calm while watching all kinds of small mistakes happen one after another.
Having lost hope, he could only choose to leave the stage on his own and become a front-facing audience member.
In fact, the eleven people on the high platform are all the most diligent pharmacists in the spiritual world.
After all, how could one figure out how to smelt the flint without having thousands of alchemy experiences.
However, if you want to win the title of Medicine King, hard work alone is not enough, talent and experience are also indispensable.
Without outstanding talent, you will end up being mediocre.
Without rich experience, you will inevitably make mistakes that you shouldn't make in large-scale competitions.
The focus of the audience in the audience is different, and the one who gets the most attention is naturally the contemporary Medicine King. Once she appears in the explosive pill, it means that the name of Medicine King is about to change hands.
At the same time, the contemporary medicine king’s gorgeous alchemy methods are also a highlight that attracts everyone’s attention.
Next is Ling Xinxue, the disciple of the leader of the Immortal Demon Alliance. Most of the people who pay attention to her are for her beautiful appearance.
Yin Po from the Youluo Sect and Chu Lu from the Danxian Sect, as two veteran pharmacists who have been famous for a long time, are the two most promising to win the title of Medicine King. Naturally, there will be many people paying attention to them.
The one who received the least attention was Mu Long. His mediocre alchemy technique produced no spectacular phenomena at all. It was more like roasting sweet potatoes than refining alchemy.
Alchemy is divided into three stages: mixing the proportions of medicinal materials, extracting the essence of medicinal materials, and blending the medicinal power into one.
The pharmacist needs to grasp the different degrees of fire during these three stages, which is a great test of the pharmacist's fire control level and medicine feel.
The levels of elixirs are not stratified in detail, and are often compared to the realm of monks.
The lowest level is the elixir suitable for the foundation-building realm. It is a basic elixir and has a high elixir-formation rate.
Further up are the elixirs suitable for the Golden Elixir Realm, and by analogy, the highest level of elixirs are the elixirs suitable for the Mahayana Realm. However, no one can refine elixirs of this level.
In addition to the fact that the success rate of this level of elixir is too low, it is also because the recipe for this level of elixir has long been lost.
Because there is more or less repulsion between different medicinal powers, the higher the level of the refined elixir, the more complex and diverse the medicinal materials involved, the more powerful the essence of the medicinal power, and the greater the repulsion between medicinal powers.
In the last stage, it is more difficult to integrate the power of the medicine. A slight mistake will cause the pill to explode, so the last stage is also called the pill.
In order to win this competition, almost everyone was refining the highest level elixir they had, which resulted in a lot of elixir explosions on the stage.
As time went by, the number of people on the high platform became smaller and smaller, but the aroma of the medicine increased instead of decreasing.
On the outskirts of Yaowang Island, there is a small farmyard.
Liu Nian and He Ling left in the air while the old man's family of three knelt down, followed by Du Wu, but the enthusiastic young man Ye Tianli was nowhere to be found.
"He Ling, I said you would pay for the medical expenses to save their family, do you remember?" Liu Nian asked.
He Ling nodded in response and subconsciously touched the storage bag at her waist, but was interrupted by Liu Nian: "I don't want the spirit stone!"
"Then what do you want?"
"I want you!" Liu Nian looked at He Ling seriously.
Du Wu deliberately slowed down his flight speed, fearing that it would ruin Liu Nian's good deeds.
The simple and kind-hearted He Ling knew nothing about love, otherwise Liu Dayan would not have stayed with her for such a long time.
He Ling looked puzzled, tilted his head and asked, "You want me, what do you mean?"
Bai Xingqi asked Liu Nian to make some big noise at the pharmacist's event.
Liu Danian planned to use a vigorous Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation to complete this matter.
This is the best way to avoid getting into trouble and still attract a lot of attention.
But he spent so much time treating the old man's family of three that he no longer had time to absorb the power of the Concentrating Pill to awaken Liu Ernian's consciousness.
Without Liu Ernian's participation in the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation, Liu Danian was worried that the formed Nascent Soul would not be able to be used by Liu Ernian.
In his current state, he is not suitable to survive the Nascent Soul Tribulation.
Of course, Liu Danian could also use one sentence to attract heavenly punishment, but he didn't want to die...
Last time God had to kill a soul to calm down, but God knows what he wants this time!
Therefore, Liu Danian had no choice but to use other methods to make a big splash at the pharmacist event.
Liu Nian explained to He Ling: “I originally didn’t want Deadwood to be exposed to everyone’s eyes, because that would cause me a lot of trouble.
However, in order to complete the mission of the leader, I can only use this method.
You are the one who forced me to use this method, so I want you to take on this trouble for me!
If you don't agree, I won't force you. "
He Ling swallowed and asked tremblingly: "What trouble will there be?"
Liu Nian sighed and replied: "Countless people will come to you for treatment! They can't be driven away, and they can't be thrown away!"
He Ling was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward and held Liu Nian's hand, with a begging look on his face, and said in a cute tone: "Brother Liu Nian, please give this opportunity to me, please..."
