Chapter 162: Public Alchemy
Below, the red square was huge and majestic. Around the square, densely packed heads formed a black ocean. Looking around, it was endless. All kinds of noisy sounds rushed straight to the sky. Under the huge sound waves, even the clouds in the sky were shaken apart.
In the center of the square, there was a suspended stone platform that was 70 to 80 meters long and wide. On both sides of the stone platform, there were two medicine furnaces, and red fire and smoke were constantly seeping out of them.
"Master Xuan and the others have called everyone in Shengdan City, right?" Xiao Yun's mouth twitched as he listened to the terrible noise. No wonder Tian Leizi looked at him with some worry at that time. In such a place, which 8th-grade pharmacist can guarantee that the elixir will be made in one furnace?
"No, the teacher only called most of the people." Cao Ying saw Xiao Yun's stupefied look, and finally felt better. He smiled while covering his mouth.
"..." Xiao Yun shook his head helplessly. He originally thought that at most they would call some 6th-grade pharmacists and above to come and watch, at most a few thousand or tens of thousands of people, but now the number of people is probably going to be more than ten times. If
I had known earlier, I would have prepared some auxiliary elixirs.
"It's not that we in Danta are targeting you, this is a necessary process." After Cao Ying finished laughing, he explained softly: "Like my teacher, he also refined an eighth-grade nine-color elixir under such circumstances, and then he overwhelmed the heroes and became the current Danta giant."
"You Danta are ruthless!"
After saying this, what else can he say? He can only fight against the enemy and cover the water with earth!
"Xiao Yun, come to us!"
Just as Xiao Yun was staring at the crowd below in a daze, suddenly a voice wrapped in fighting spirit came through the clamor and noise.
Xiao Yun looked at the source of the voice, and saw that on a high platform in the square, the Sky Fire Venerable was waving at him.
"Xian'er, Miss Cao, let's go there." After saying that, Xiao Yun moved and swooped down towards the platform where the Venerable Skyfire was, and the two women behind him quickly followed.
After Xiao Yun and the other two landed on the platform, he unexpectedly found that this area was extremely quiet, as if it was in another space with the others.
"Haha, Xiao Yun, are you surprised? Refining medicine in a place like this." The Venerable Skyfire saw Xiao Yun's bitter face and smiled.
"I'm not surprised, I'm scared."
Xiao Yun waved his hand. If it wasn't impossible, he would have run away with the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron overnight.
Then he glanced around casually and found that although the platform occupied a large area, there were only seven seats. Venerable Tianhuo and Yao Lao were sitting together, and there were five empty seats next to them.
"Medicine Master." After Xiao Yun and the other two sat down, he turned to Medicine Master and asked, "Why don't I see Xuan Master and the others? I still have to wait a while before I can make the medicine
, right?" "Xuan Kongzi and the others are the giants of Danta, so it will take a while for them to arrive. When they come, they will ask you to go up to make the medicine." Medicine Master touched his gray beard and said with a smile, "This is the first time you are making medicine in front of so many people. Do you still have the confidence to pass the test?"
"Alas..." Xiao Yun sighed lightly and smiled bitterly when he heard this, "My confidence is not as strong as it was at the beginning. It was 90% at first, but now it's only 50%."
"Haha, you are still considering setting up the soul barrier yourself, right? Let me tell you, when you make medicine publicly in Danta, you cannot set up all kinds of shielding methods. You have to let everyone observe clearly, so you can only rely on yourself to stabilize your mind and make medicine."
"Ah? There are too many rules in Danta, right?"
Xiao Yun, who was originally smiling bitterly, fell down instantly after hearing what Yao Lao said. He was as miserable as if he had eaten a yellow lotus.
"That's why the gold content of the Danta's alchemist badge is higher than that of other regions. This is also the reason why Danta's alchemists look down on other alchemists."
Yao Lao saw Xiao Yun's expression and laughed loudly. He said, "But don't worry. Although the soul barrier cannot be set up, you can take pills that assist in alchemy, and the effect is better than the soul barrier."
"Uh... I've been busy reading books these days, and I haven't prepared the auxiliary pills yet." Xiao Yun smiled awkwardly. No one had mentioned these rules of Danta to him, so naturally he didn't understand them.
"I knew it." Yao Lao shook his head, took out a jade bottle from his ring, handed it to Xiao Yun, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I refined a Concentration and Tranquility Pill for you in advance, otherwise you, a bad boy, would have made a fool of yourself in front of so many people."
Xiao Yun felt a warm current in his heart after taking the pill from Yao Lao. Concentration and Tranquility Pill is a seventh-grade high-level auxiliary pill. He didn't expect Yao Lao to prepare it for him in advance.
Thousands of words flashed through his mind, but in the end they were summarized into five words: "Thank you for your trouble!"
"Okay, stop being sentimental here, you should rest here for a while, Xuan Kongzi and others should be here soon."
"Yeah." Xiao Yun nodded slightly, put the jade bottle into the ring, leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and adjusted his state.
...
After he closed his eyes and dozed off for a while, a wave of distortion suddenly appeared in the void above the square, and then, the silver-white space force seeped out from it, and actually tore a passage directly through the void.
The appearance of the space passage attracted all the attention in the square. The next moment, three figures stepped out of the space passage and hung in the air.
"It's the three giants of Danta! God, in my lifetime, I can actually see the three giants appear at the same time!"
"President Xuan Kongzi!"
The appearance of Xuan Kongzi and his three companions instantly ignited the atmosphere of the entire square. The crowd in the field, like the crazy fans in the previous life, shouted to the sky.
In fact, it is normal to call them fans. Xuan Kongzi and his three companions are the three giants of Danta. They can be said to be the three people who can best represent Danta.
And Danta is the holy land in the hearts of alchemists. It is normal to regard the three people who symbolize Danta as idols in their hearts.
"Xuan Kongzi and his companions are here." Seeing the three figures in the air, Yao Lao reminded Xiao Yun softly.
"Yes." Hearing this, Xiao Yun suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the three people in the sky with a fiery gaze. In a few days, he will be as dazzling as these three people!
"Cough cough!" In the sky, Xuan Kongzi, one of the three, took a step forward and coughed lightly, but the sound was heard by everyone. The square, which was originally noisy, suddenly became silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.
"Everyone, today we in Danta invite you to come here to witness the birth of a new master of alchemy!"
"His name has been circulating in Dan Territory for some time. Many people have heard of his reputation, but they are skeptical about his achievements!"
"So, we in Danta want to ask him to prove it. Later, on this suspended stone platform, everything will be revealed!"
"Everyone, please bear witness! Is Xiao Yun a demon that has not appeared for a thousand years, or a mortal with a false name!"
After Xuan Kongzi finished speaking, he pointed to the high platform where Xiao Yun was, and a smile that ordinary people could hardly detect appeared on his face.
And the eyes of everyone in the field also followed the movement of the finger and looked at the high platform.
"Haha, brat, whether you can refine an eighth-grade elixir or not, your reputation has spread throughout the entire Zhongzhou Continent." After hearing Xuan Kongzi's slightly provocative words, Yao Lao joked.
"Xiao Yun, your alchemy skills have been honed through countless times of refining medicine! Don't lose face!"
"Yes! Brother Huo is right! Be more alert!"
"..." Looking at the two happy old men, Xiao Yun was a little speechless, and then stood up from his seat, stepped on the air, and walked towards the floating stone platform.
"Is this Xiao Yun? He is really as young as the rumors say..."
"Not only is he young, you see he can fly in the air, he is at least a powerful Dou Zong! It seems that Master Xiao is not only excellent in refining medicine, he is also a leader of the younger generation in cultivation!"
"Humph, maybe he is just a show-off. An eighth-grade master of refining medicine? I want to see how he refines an eighth-grade pill!"
Looking at the handsome and unparalleled young man, people in the field talked a lot. Some believed him, while others felt that Xiao Yun was too young. Even if he could refine an eighth-grade pill, it would be with the help of others. He could not do it by himself.
But the words of others had no effect on Xiao Yun. Just as Xuan Kongzi said, everything would be clear after he finished refining the elixir.
Slowly landing on the suspended stone platform, Xiao Yun sat down with legs crossed, closed his eyes slightly, and waited for the refining of the elixir to begin.
"Be quiet!" Xuan Kongzi glanced at the stone platform, and after seeing Xiao Yun ready, he waved his sleeves and suppressed the originally noisy square.
"Everyone, let's watch the refining of the elixir!"
As soon as the voice fell, the three giant heads of the Danta that were originally suspended in the sky flashed and landed on the high platform where Xiao Yun was before.
"Swoosh!" A sound of breaking wind was heard, and then a huge red medicine cauldron appeared on the floating stone platform, and at the same time, many medicinal materials were suspended in the air.
The appearance of the red medicine cauldron caused a great deal of excitement among the onlookers. Most of the people who were watching here were pharmacists, so they could naturally see the extraordinaryness of this red medicine cauldron.
"The Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron? This kid is really lucky." Xuan Kongzi sat next to Yao Lao, looking at the medicine cauldron covered with strange animal patterns, and exclaimed.
"It's just the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron, one of the Tianding List, and you are so impressed? There is more to come." Yao Lao smiled and touched his beard, pretending to be profound.
"Oh? Is there anything that can surprise me more than the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron?" Hearing this, Xuan Kongzi asked curiously. Even Xuan Yi and Tian Leizi turned their eyes to Yao Lao. Obviously, they also wanted to know what other good things Xiao Yun had.
Before Yao Lao could answer, they saw the good show that the former mentioned. Xuan Kongzi even stood up directly, staring at the suspended stone platform.
There was no other reason, just because Xiao Yun waved his hand, a black flame burst out, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a black dragon, hovering in the air, roaring silently.
"This is... the Eight Desolate Destruction Flame!?"
A quick update to make up for May's boast
