As the sun rose in the east, Chang Sheng had just walked out of his room when the voices of Xia Siyao and Ouyang Man came from the door.
"Girl Siyao, girl Man, why are you two so early?" Tu Lao was a little surprised.
"Today there will be a Shuangdan meeting. Let's bring the meat chopper to join in the fun."
Xia Siyao said excitedly, but Ouyang Man ignored Tu Lao.
The Shuangdan Meeting is held almost every year in Mingque City. What started out as a challenge between the local alchemists and the alchemists of the Alchemy Palace in the Bingling Pavilion later evolved into a free competition among all the alchemists of the entire dynasty.
"I have to go to Bingling Pavilion first."
"The Shuangdan meeting will be held in front of the Bingling Pavilion. I won't delay your business." Xia Siyao said, dragging Changsheng out.
"By the way, Elder Man, it seems that you have a strong opinion against Elder Tu." After the three of them left the martial arts academy, Chang Sheng asked in confusion.
"If I hadn't saved him back then, my father and Emperor Xia wouldn't have been infected by the demonic energy, and the dynasty wouldn't be what it is now."
Walking and chatting along the way, it didn't take long before we arrived at Bingling Pavilion.
There was already a sea of people in front of the Binling Pavilion. The city guards of Mingque City assisted the Bingling Pavilion and surrounded an open space of about a hundred feet in diameter for the alchemists to refine their pills.
There are four rows of stone tables placed in the open space, the first row has forty tables, the second row has twenty tables, the third row has ten tables, and the last row near the Bingling Pavilion has only two stone tables.
After Chang Sheng and others arrived, Pavilion Master Yao and Fu Wenshan came to greet them.
"Master, are you interested in showing off your skills today?" Pavilion Master Yao said with a smile.
"Pavilion Master Yao is joking, I don't even have an alchemy furnace or an alchemy fire. I can't show it even if I want to." Changsheng turned to Wenshan and asked, "Will Brother Wenshan take action today?"
"How dare you try your best to show off your skills in front of the young master? However, if someone can come up with something good, you might have to show off your ugliness." Fu Wenshan clasped his fists and said to Changsheng with a smile.
While several people were chatting, the noise in the square suddenly became quiet.
"I, Zhang Ke, am going to make a fortune today and climb onto this first stone table first. My winning prize is a pair of fangs of a six-clawed, one-eyed dragon from the Xuanwu Sea."
A handsome young man in white robe walked to the first row of stone tables, clasped his fists and said to the onlookers. A piece of grass embroidered suddenly appeared on the cuffs.
"Master Zhang is very generous today."
"Yes, that pair of fangs of the six-clawed one-eyed dragon is worth at least tens of thousands of jade."
"Young Master Zhang is only 16 years old this year, and he is already a first-grade alchemist. He is really young and promising."
"Hahahaha, since Mr. Zhang is so elegant, I, Tian Shangfang, will come and compete with Mr. Zhang. My prize is a piece of dead wood from the Iron Soul Tree, which is no less than your six-clawed one-eyed dragon fang." The boy with the same piece of grass on his sleeve laughed and came to the stone table next to Zhang Ke.
The appearance of two first-level alchemy masters was the beginning of the double alchemy meeting.
After a while, people in the first-level alchemist area and the second-level alchemist area in the second row began to discuss alchemy.
The current level of alchemists in Wuji Domain is relatively simple.
When soul power begins to be generated, the elixir liquid can be condensed. At this time, you are just an elixir disciple.
When the soul power reaches the first and second level peaks, one can refine first- and second-level elixirs, and are called first- and second-level alchemists respectively. The symbol is a one-leaf or two-leaf clover on the cuff.
First and second grade alchemists are relatively common.
When the soul power reaches the second and second level peaks, you can refine third- and fourth-level elixirs, and are called third- and fourth-level alchemists respectively. The logo is shamrock, four-leaf clover.
Being able to reach the level of a third- or fourth-grade alchemist can be regarded as a certain talent in alchemy attainments.
When the soul power reaches level three and peak level three, you can refine fifth- and sixth-grade elixirs. They are respectfully called Tongding and Yinding alchemists respectively. The symbol is a copper alchemy furnace and a silver alchemy furnace.
Fifth and sixth grade alchemists are extraordinary existences in the entire Wuji Realm.
When the soul power reaches the fourth level, one can refine seventh-grade elixirs and is called the Golden Cauldron Alchemist. The symbol is a golden alchemy furnace.
If you can refine seventh-grade elixirs, you have already reached the pinnacle of alchemy. There are only three people in the entire Nanjiang Continent, and that is the two Supreme Palace Masters and the Palace Master of Danding Palace.
When you reach the fifth level of soul power, you can refine eighth-grade elixirs. You are a master of alchemy, and there are only a few in the entire Wuji Domain. Alchemy masters are rarer and more precious beings than powerful beings in the divine realm.
The Mingque Dynasty was just an ordinary small dynasty with the highest combat power. It had a small population, and there were only more than 80 alchemists registered in the alchemy hall.
The Ming Que Dan Tang Guild also does not have the positions of president, vice president and elder. There were only three stewards and several deacons. The steward is considered to be the most accomplished alchemist in the entire Mingque Dynasty, and is a fourth-grade alchemist at the peak of the second level of soul power.
Back to business.
Alchemy has just begun, in the stages of refining and melting the liquid. No one had taken out the elixir fire yet, and their respective elixir furnaces were quietly placed on the stone table.
Bang.
After about a stick of incense, there was a soft sound, and the first elixir fire finally lit up in the second-grade elixir area in the second row.
A man in purple clothes had a purple elixir fire floating in his left hand. A golden elixir furnace on the stone table in front of him spun and floated in front of him. And a drop of alchemy liquid the size of a walnut floating in front of his eyes also entered the alchemy furnace.
Bang.
There was another soft sound, and the red pill fire of the opponent next to him also lit up.
Bang, bang, bang, bang...
Immediately afterwards, the hands of the more than forty alchemists in the field also lit up the alchemy fire one after another.
As the alchemists in the field lit up their elixir fires and began to condense their elixirs into the furnace, some of the alchemists in the audience who were still watching also came onto the field, took out their lottery winnings and placed them on the stone table, waiting for someone to challenge.
Even in the third-level alchemy area in the third row, four alchemists with a clover embroidered on their sleeves came up.
Changsheng watched the alchemists concentrating on refining elixirs, and his mind suddenly calmed down, and then a series of strange memories and cognitions about refining elixirs emerged in his mind.
His thoughts flickered like ten years, and when Changsheng returned to reality, he was as surprised as if he woke up from a big dream and found that only a moment had passed. Look at the alchemists in the field refining elixirs, but they are all as simple and clumsy as children practicing their pens.
Can I already make elixirs? Changsheng was suddenly shocked.
At this time, an old man in black robes came to a stone table in the last row with a long face.
With a flick of his hand, a bamboo chair appeared behind him, and a black flame appeared on the stone table in front of him. The old man in black robe sat down on the bamboo chair and closed his eyes, concentrating without even looking at the scene.
The appearance of black flames made Changsheng's eyes light up, and he gathered his consciousness to investigate carefully.
As the black-robed old man sat down, almost all the first and second rows of stone tables in the venue were occupied by alchemists. In the third row of the third-grade alchemy area, eight alchemy masters began to compete.
Dozens of elixir fires of various colors, the flames are swirling in colorful colors; dozens of bottles of elixir furnaces with different colors and shapes are spinning in front of the alchemist, which is a unique sight.
More and more alchemists entered the process of melting the elixirs, and wisps of elixir fragrance would hit their noses from time to time. Smelling the fragrance of elixirs and watching dozens of alchemists refining elixirs was a different kind of enjoyment.
About half an hour later, alchemists began to fall down in defeat. The vacant stone desk was quickly occupied by other alchemists.
"I haven't seen him for decades, but Old Lei's bad temper still hasn't changed?" Pavilion Master Yao looked at the black-robed old man and shook his head.
"Steward Lei went to the Xia Mo Dan Tang Association last month. I heard that he discussed alchemy with several stewards from the Mingwu, Nanli, and Yuden Dynasty Guilds, and ended up exporting several treasures. So I have been in a bad mood recently. Fu Wenshan said.
"When it comes to the Dan Tang Guild, we, Mingque, are the weakest. We feel that we have never beaten other dynasty guilds. By the way, Pavilion Master Yao, why haven't we seen anyone from Dan Ding Palace this year?" Ouyang Man looked at Pavilion Master Yao in confusion.
"They all went out to look for spiritual grass and spiritual plants."
Pavilion Master Yao looked at Changsheng as he spoke, only to find that he was concentrating on the black flame on Old Lei's stone desk.
"Young Master, are you interested in that flame? Old Man Lei found it from the Northern Desert Continent more than 200 years ago. It is said that it cannot be refined into elixir fire and is of no use." Pavilion Master Yao saw Changsheng's thoughts.
"The detonator even brought the flame to the Guojianghai Chamber of Commerce auction and was scolded. It is still used as a joke." Fu Wenshan added.
Useless? How could it be useless? Changsheng looked at the black flames and was already filled with joy.
If you can't use it, it's because your soul power doesn't match it and you can't refine it to drive it. Even if it can be refined, no alchemy furnace in the Wuji Domain can withstand this kind of fire. There is only the skull alchemy furnace in his hand, which can even hold the immortal essence, let alone the flame.
Changsheng walked straight to the old man in black robes and clasped his fists: "Senior, can you sell this black flame to me?"
"Huh?" Old Man Lei raised his eyelids slightly and looked at Changsheng: "Where did this little baby come from? What trouble is it causing? Huh." After Old Man Lei finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and began to close his eyes and rest.
"Does that mean I'm going to compete with you on alchemy? If I win, it will be mine?"
"Young master, you must reach the level of a fourth-grade alchemist to compete with the detonator." Fu Wenshan came to Changsheng's side and whispered.
"Alchemist level? I still have to go to your guild to take the exam?"
"It just so happens that you don't need it today. You can start refining the first-grade elixir from the front, then the second-grade and third-grade elixir. After Elder He over there determines that the grade of the elixir is good, you can compete with Elder Lei."
"First grade? Then give it a try. I wonder if you can make a pill?"
Chang Sheng's words immediately made everyone's foreheads flash with black lines, especially Pavilion Master Yao and Fu Wenshan. You, a person whose condensed spiritual fluid is as good as elixirs, don't know if you can make elixirs?
"I'll go, you stinky meat chopper. If you can't make an elixir, don't be brave. If you can't make an elixir for a while, don't say you know me. I'm embarrassed." Xia Siyao glared at Changsheng and said.
Ouyang Man, as well as Pavilion Master Yao and Fu Wenshan all know that the immortal soul is powerful, but they don't know how powerful it is? I heard that he was going to make an elixir now and everyone was looking forward to it with great interest.
Because the soul power level is an inherent hard requirement for refining elixirs, if you cannot reach a certain soul power level, you will simply not be able to refine elixirs of the required grade.
"By the way, Pavilion Master Yao, does Bingling Pavilion sell alchemy furnaces and alchemy fires?"
"Master Chen Peak kept the Cold Spring Cauldron and Leng Yu Danhuo before he left. He said that if Young Master Changsheng uses them, he can take them away at any time."
Pavilion Master Yao took out a white jade pill furnace and a ball of white flame from his storage bag. It was the Hanquan Cauldron and Leng Yu Danhuo that the Alchemy Palace had given him before.
