Chapter 849 Innovation Ability
Facing Alchemist Jinfeng's questioning, Guirong's expression did not change and he said: "That's the rule. Please forgive me, Alchemist Jinfeng. If you lose, you will win. If you don't give in, there will be opportunities in the future."
Master Jin Feng was extremely unwilling to lose. He turned to look at the head of the Yang family, hoping that Yang Chengzu could say a few words for him. He was secretly supported by the Yang family and represented the interests of the Yang family. It's a pity that Yang Chengzu seemed to be asleep, closing his eyes and not looking at him.
Yang Chengzu wanted to help, but Master Jin Feng lost so easily that he couldn't find any loopholes to take advantage of. And in front of so many people, he couldn't confuse right and wrong. Since he couldn't help, he simply closed his door. It’s better not to hear or ask with eyes.
Seeing that there was no movement from the Yang family, Master Jin Feng knew that his failure was a foregone conclusion. In desperation, he could only jump off the high platform and left without looking back.
The people in the audience were talking a lot, not because they were sorry for Master Jin Feng's elimination, but because they were sighing for the excitement of this game. Everyone originally thought it was just a simple assessment at Wantong Pavilion, but they didn't expect the whole process to be so beautiful. The double refining method, the grass elixir, and Yuan elixir techniques opened the eyes of the alchemists below. This trip was really worth it.
After a slight pause, Manager Gui stood up again, first bowed his hands to the three alchemists, and then said to the audience: "The three alchemists can pass the first two levels, and they can be said to be the best among the alchemists in the Zhongsha Region. Sir, being my guest at Wantong Pavilion, Prince Dan, is more than enough, but there can only be one person in charge of the Dan Academy, and you have to go through the third level to sort out who is superior and who is inferior."
"When an alchemist reaches the realm of the Alchemy King, he is no longer simply imitating. He cannot be complacent and follow the rules. He needs to have his own understanding, his own creation, and the summary and improvement of the alchemy skills of his predecessors. Therefore, the third level of the test is Your creative ability. The question in the third level is very simple. It requires you to refine a new elixir within five days based on your own elixir experience and the materials you have. There are no additional requirements. Due to the restrictions of the rules, the three of you can do whatever you want, whether it is to improve the original elixir, to develop another elixir out of thin air, or even to restore the lost elixir of the predecessors. In the end, we will decide based on the efficacy of the elixir. , quality, grade ranking.”
As soon as Mr. Gui finished speaking, the audience remembered the discussion. It took five days to create a brand new elixir, and you still had to prepare the materials yourself. There was only five days left. Isn't this requirement too difficult? Let's not talk about whether the three alchemists have so many materials. A new elixir has gone through countless failures from the idea to practice to successful refining. Wantong Pavilion only gave three days, who Can it be done in such a short period of time?
Of course, this is not without loopholes to exploit. If you know every particularly unfamiliar elixir that no one else knows, you can actually use it. However, there are risks in doing so. There are thousands of alchemists gathered below, all of whom are the best among the alchemists of Qingyan Island. There are many knowledgeable people. If the elixir you take out is recognized by others, wouldn't it be embarrassing? ?
However, Wantong Pavilion does not have any requirements for the level of the elixir. If you just want to deal with errands, you can just refine a new elixir of the Pulse Opening realm. This is not too difficult for the golden elixir master. But in this case, you are giving up the chance of winning to others.
After Manager Gui finished speaking, regardless of everyone's reaction, he added: "If the three alchemists have nothing to say, let's get started. If you are worried about being disturbed by others, or afraid that others will see some secrets, you can do it on this high platform. Set up a formation restriction and we will see the outcome in five days.”
This level not only tests everyone's alchemy skills and use of various materials, but also involves whether you have enough materials and whether they are comprehensive enough. Creating a new elixir is not an easy task, so you must seize the time. . As soon as Manager Gui finished speaking, Alchemist Yushu casually presented a set of small formation flags, which were arranged at the front, back, left and right. Then a cloud of smoke filled the air, and Alchemist Yushu disappeared from the high platform.
Not to be outdone, Master Kuzhu and Qingyang each took out a set of simple formations and set them up on the high platform. The formations soon obscured their figures.
Qingyang's formation level is not very high, but it is enough. The purpose of setting up the formation is just to prevent interference and prying eyes from outsiders, not to block other people's attacks. If anyone dares to cause damage, not only will he be killed on the first It was immediately discovered that the people from Wantong Pavilion would also come forward to stop him.
Sitting in the formation, Qingyang began to think about how to pass the third test. Although Wantong Pavilion did not put forward any requirements, if he wanted to distinguish himself, he must have his own advantages.
The first requirement for an elixir is that it is new. It must be an innovative elixir. It must not overlap or be similar to previous elixirs and have flaws found out by others. The second requirement is that it must be very effective. The effect is just that some materials are simply piled together, which is no different from waste, and it cannot be called an elixir; the third is that anyone can refine high-level and low-level elixirs, and there is no advantage at all. , if you want to win at this level, the level of the elixir must be at least the foundation-building level, and the golden elixir level is better; the fourth is that the materials must be owned by yourself, a clever woman cannot make a meal without rice, without enough materials everything will be lost. It's delusional.
Qingyang sat there, thinking for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out. The level of the Jindan was high enough, but unfortunately he didn't have the materials, and it wasn't a new elixir; he had a set of materials for the Yaozhan Dan, but it wasn't a new elixir either. Although few people knew about it, it was not without it, and one set of materials was not enough; the classics left by the Thousand Hands Pill King did record several very rare elixirs, but the materials were also very rare. Qingyang didn't prepare in advance, so he had to give up. In short, almost all the ones Qingyang could think of had problems of one kind or another.
The Zhongsha area was mainly Yuandan, and it was very difficult for Qingyang to win in this regard. Since he had no advantage, and the materials for Yuandan were not easy to prepare, should he think of a way to make Caodan? Apart from anything else, he had planted many kinds of low-level spiritual herbs in his Zuixian Gourd, and the number was enough, so he could use them for experiments.
Moreover, grass pills have another advantage, that is, there are very few people in Zhongsha Region who have studied grass pills. Generally, only some high-level alchemists, when seeking breakthroughs, occasionally dabble in the art of grass pills, which is different from Yuandan. It is easier to fool people if they don't know much. Even if they only make minor changes to the grass pills, others may not be able to tell.
