Soon, all the people gathered in the valley left.
Only Xiao Zhan and nine others remained on the high platform.
Among the other nine people, some knew each other, and some chose to leave alone.
Xiao Zhan glanced at them, and after remembering their appearance and aura, he returned to his residence as quickly as possible.
He checked the jade talisman he had just obtained and learned that the place where the alchemy conference was held was in a place called Yangcheng.
Yangcheng is about five months away from Bingyun Sect.
However, Xiao Zhan has refined a lot of magical talismans and can reach Yangcheng in more than two months at the fastest.
So Xiao Zhan decided to practice for another two months and then set off for Yangcheng.
Two months later.
Xiao Zhan left the Bingyun Sect alone.
He kept using the magic talisman along the way, and his speed was more than twice as fast as normal.
In the end, it took Xiao Zhan less than two months to reach the target location-Yangcheng.
Xiao Zhan had never heard of the name Yangcheng before.
Now that I saw it, I was slightly surprised.
Because this is probably the largest and most luxurious city he has ever seen.
The streets in the city are criss-crossed, and the streets are also extremely lively.
Various shops are everywhere.
Xiao Zhan followed his own habit and went into a restaurant, drinking while inquiring about the news from other people's words.
Soon he had a general understanding of Yangcheng.
Yangcheng was established in ancient times by a strong man named 'Zhenren Haoyang' and has existed for a long time.
In the huge square in the middle of Yangcheng, a statue of Zhenren Haoyang is still erected for people to pay their respects.
Not only that, there are nine tall stone tablets erected in the square, which are said to contain nine profound exercises left by Master Haoyang, which have attracted countless people over the years.
Slowly, Yangcheng developed into the prosperous city it is now.
The alchemy conference is also held in that square, but the square is currently shrouded in formations and the situation inside cannot be seen from the outside. Only when the alchemy conference starts can everyone enter.
Xiao Zhan was not impatient and continued to listen to the discussions of the people around him.
About an hour later, Xiao Zhan left the restaurant and soon approached the square in the center of the city.
Around the square, tall buildings were built, with carved beams and painted beams, which were magnificent.
The square is large, probably enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.
However, the square was now enveloped by the formation. Xiao Zhan could only see the rippling void, and could not see clearly what was inside the formation.
However, the strength of the formation was not high. If he wanted to break through it to find out, he could do it, but doing so would obviously be an offense to the Danding Alliance.
Therefore, Xiao Zhan looked at the people sitting cross-legged around the square and chose a place to sit down.
He could guess that these people should have come from all directions to participate in the alchemy conference.
Soon, Xiao Zhan entered a state of cultivation.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the area around the originally quiet square suddenly became lively and noisy.
Xiao Zhan opened his eyes and saw that the huge formation in front of him had become translucent, and he could vaguely see some of the arrangements inside.
The most conspicuous thing is the nine hundred-foot-high stone tablets.
However, because the formation was not completely lifted, Xiao Zhan couldn't see clearly what was written on it.
In addition to the first time, Xiao Zhan also saw rows and rows of alchemy furnaces, about half a person tall, neatly arranged in the square. Judging from the number, there were probably a hundred thousand.
This scene can indeed be called a grand event.
At this moment, a bell rang from the formation, and then an old voice came out, instantly resounding throughout every corner of Yangcheng.
"Anyone who participates in the alchemy conference must arrive within two hours. Those who exceed the time limit will be deemed to have given up their qualifications."
Xiao Zhan looked at the people sitting around him
The people on the ground stood up, and he stood up too.
At this time, the formation gradually dispersed, and the situation in the square became clear.
Xiao Zhan's eyes immediately fell on the nine tall stone tablets.
The next moment, Xiao Zhan heard the master's voice ringing in his mind:
"I've seen it before. It's a pretty good technique, but it's not worth your time to practice."
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan didn't hesitate at all and immediately looked back at the people above the square.
The leader was an old man, wearing a white robe, standing in the air with his hands behind his hands. His old and profound eyes swept across the whole place, exuding huge power.
Xiao Zhan noticed that there were eight golden leaf marks on the heart of the old man's white robe.
Xiao Zhan heard other people exclaim, and someone called out, 'Eighth Grade Alchemist,' and he immediately understood that these eight marks were the other person's achievements in alchemy.
Generally speaking, anyone who can refine any eighth-grade elixir can be called an eighth-grade alchemist.
Of course, among eighth-grade alchemists, there is also a huge difference in level between them.
The alchemy system of the chaotic world is very different from the alchemy system that Xiao Zhan came into contact with in the second-level world. After he came to the chaotic world, the highest-level elixir he had refined was only level six.
Therefore, Xiao Zhan himself did not know the highest level of elixir he could refine.
He didn't even speculate on whether he could pass the Danding Alliance's certification.
At this time, a large number of alchemists flew from all directions and landed on the square.
There were men, women, and children, numbering over half a million.
Five hundred thousand alchemists, what is this concept?
The old man standing in the air frowned slightly, obviously a little disappointed with the number of alchemists who came to take part in the assessment. ..
He murmured:
"It seems that the chaotic world has really declined. There were more than a million people in the past, but now there are only half."
His eyes swept across all the alchemists present, and he slowly said:
"Take out your voucher and enter."
Xiao Zhan took out a dark red token shaped like a flame, then walked into the square and stood next to an alchemy furnace.
Many people also flew directly to the middle of the square, obviously very confident and wanted to show their faces in front of the old man from the Danding Alliance.
Soon, nearly 100,000 alchemy furnaces had been selected.
These alchemy furnaces are all refined by the Alchemy Cauldron Alliance without any distinction. Only in this way can we see the real difference in the alchemy level of everyone.
Those who didn't grab a spot could only sit on the sidelines and wait quietly.
At this time, countless spectators came from all directions, occupying all positions on the ground, in mid-air and high in the air.
Looking around, there are people everywhere and it looks extremely lively.
The old man spoke at this time:
"quiet!"
The sound wave spread instantly, leaving everyone present in silence.
"Don't waste my time, leave all those who can't refine the fifth-grade elixir, and don't cause trouble."
As soon as these words came out, many people in the square looked disappointed, then turned around and flew out of the square.
They did not dare to be presumptuous here. After all, the old man in front of them was not only a powerful man, but also represented the dignity of the Alchemy Alliance that could not be offended.
There were many vacancies in the square, and many people flew into the square and stood next to the vacant alchemy furnaces.
At this time, the atmosphere present became solemn. Everyone knew that this was a test that could change their destiny.
As long as you can pass the assessment and get certified by the Danding Alliance, even if you are not able to join the Danding Alliance, you can still become a non-staff member of the Danding Alliance, and your status is different from the same.
The old man didn't even introduce his name. As he waved his hand, black lights condensed into an elixir prescription in the air.
At the same time, portions of the elixir flew in front of everyone on the field.
"This is a fifth-grade elixir, Dragon Power Pill."
"You only have one chance. If you can refine it successfully, you will be qualified to enter the next round. Those who abstain can leave directly. Don't waste time."
Hearing this, many people present frowned.
Dragon Power Pill is indeed a fifth-grade elixir, and the refining difficulty of the fifth-grade elixir is above the average level, and the probability of refining failure is very high.
There are a few people who have never even heard of the name Longli Dan. Their eyes are unavoidable and they are a little anxious. They can only stare at the pill formula floating in the air and decide to go all out and give it a try.
There are also very few people who show confident expressions.
Some people even waved their hands and started to heat the alchemy furnace with flames.
Xiao Zhan looked at the reactions of everyone present and did not immediately start refining the elixir.
Not long after, the temperature in the square began to rise, the heat wave steamed, and the void began to ripple.
Waves of scent of the elixir being refined suddenly filled the air, making people feel refreshed.
Although there is a recipe for the elixir, it does not give out the refining steps and the key points that need to be paid attention to when refining various medicinal materials. There is not even the order in which the medicinal materials are put in.
Therefore, many people present were at a loss, and in the end they had no choice but to try their luck.
Some people were lost in thought and have not taken action yet.
Some people were more reckless. As soon as several medicinal materials were added to the alchemy furnace, they were burned immediately, and even the furnace exploded.
However, some people looked calm and started refining in an orderly manner.
Xiao Zhan glanced at the dozens of elixirs suspended in front of him, and then at the elixirs floating in the sky. He could probably deduce that this elixir called Longli Dan was used to increase the explosiveness of energy output. Pill.
And he didn't recognize nearly half of these elixirs.
After thinking about it, Xiao Zhan waved his hand gently, and saw a small piece of each medicinal material was cut off and fell into his palm.
The next moment, Xiao Zhan put the fragments of these elixirs into his mouth one by one and chewed them gently.
The old man standing in mid-air glanced across the audience and suddenly noticed Xiao Zhan's behavior.
He narrowed his eyes instantly and snorted coldly:
"You don't even know the medicinal properties of these elixirs, and you still want to pass the examination and certification. It's simply a fantasy."
However, he was too lazy to pay attention to Xiao Zhan. He was sure that Xiao Zhan could not refine the Dragon Power Pill and might even be poisoned by these elixirs, so he stopped paying attention to Xiao Zhan.
In his opinion, Xiao Zhan is just a kid who doesn't know how high the sky is.
At this time, Xiao Zhan did frown.
Because he discovered that several of the elixirs actually contained subtle poisons, and the moment they collided, they immediately turned into highly toxic substances.
Xiao Zhan took out an antidote pill and drank it. He thought about it for a moment and figured it out in his mind.
He stretched out his right hand and softly said the word "fire".
The next moment, golden flames appeared out of thin air and fell into the alchemy furnace.
The temperature inside the alchemy furnace rose sharply.
The next moment, all the elixirs were wrapped in Xiao Zhan's energy and thrown into the alchemy furnace.
Xiao Zhan controlled the golden flame in the alchemy furnace to rotate rapidly. At the same time, by controlling the energy intensity of the various elixirs wrapped in it, he began to fuse the medicinal properties of various elixirs in the most perfect proportion and speed.
