The alchemists looked solemn and concentrated as they began to warm the cauldron and refine the medicinal materials.
For a time, the buzzing of the medicine cauldron, the sound of burning flames, and the subtle crackling of medicinal materials being refined intertwined into a unique symphony of medicine refining.
And in this ocean of flames, there were several places where the light and power of the flames burst out, instantly overwhelming the entire place and attracting countless shocked and envious glances!
Jiang Donghua's eyes were also attracted by one of them.
It was a stone platform not far away diagonally in front of him.
Behind the stone platform, stood an old man wearing a dark red robe, with a haggard face and sharp eyes like an eagle.
At this moment, a cluster of dark red flames was rising above his dry palm!
This flame is not an ordinary fiery red, but like cooled magma, or like rocks that have been burning for thousands of years deep underground. The color is deep and restrained.
When the flame jumped, it did not emit scorching heat, but instead there was a heavy, sticky and weird wave that seemed to be able to burn the soul!
The air around the flame showed an unnatural sense of distortion and collapse.
"Heavenly Flames!"
Jiang Donghua's eyes flashed, and he immediately recognized the origin of the flame.
This is clearly the seventeenth ranked one on Heavenly Flame Ranking - Volcanic Rock Flame!
This fire was not born from an ordinary volcano, but was bred deep in the core of the earth. It is a fusion of the essence of the earth and the marrow of ten thousand years of stone. It is extremely powerful and is especially suitable for refining some elixirs with violent medicinal properties that require extreme fire temperatures. It also requires extremely high Fire Energy control by the alchemist.
"This guy is lucky and capable to conquer Heavenly Flames, who is ranked seventeenth."
Jiang Donghua secretly praised in his heart, and at the same time Soul Force slightly sensed the aura of the red-robed old man. His Dou Qi cultivation level was probably at the four-star or Five-star Dou Zun level, and he was considered a powerful person.
The appearance of this cluster of Volcanic Rock Flame was like pouring a ladle of cold water into a hot oil pan, instantly causing a huge commotion inside and outside the square!
"Heavenly Flames! It's Heavenly Flames!"
"Oh my god! It's actually Volcanic Rock Flame ranked seventeenth!"
"Who is this person? He can actually own Heavenly Flames!"
There were many knowledgeable people in the stands, and someone immediately exclaimed, revealing the origin of Heavenly Flames.
Immediately afterwards, more information about the identity of the red-robed old man was also recognized by some powerful elders, triggering a greater wave of discussion.
"It's him! Grand Elder of the Ten Thousand Medicine Sect, Venerable Shi Yu!"
"What? It's this old monster! He is Eighth-grade Alchemist Grandmaster who has been famous for a hundred years! It is said that he has been in seclusion for many years, but I didn't expect that this time Pill Gathering actually lured him out!"
"Ten Thousand Medicine Sect, that is Central Plains one of the top medicine refining sects! It has a profound foundation!"
"Venerable Shi Yu plus Volcanic Rock Flame, now there is no doubt about the championship, right?"
On the surrounding stone platforms, some alchemy masters who originally had great confidence in themselves became extremely solemn, even a little ugly, after feeling the unique sense of oppression from Volcanic Rock Flame and learning the identity of Venerable Shi Yu.
Eighth-grade Alchemist Grandmaster with the support of Heavenly Flames has great advantages!
Venerable Shi Yu seemed oblivious to the commotion and discussion around him, as all his mind was already immersed in refining the medicine.
Under his exquisite control, Volcanic Rock Flame, like a docile pet, exuding a heart-stopping aura of destruction, began to methodically burn the rare medicinal herbs in front of him that exuded astonishing energy fluctuations.
Jiang Donghua looked away. There was no fear on his face, but a smile of interest.
"It's interesting. Even this old monster has come out and is pregnant with Heavenly Flames. It seems that Pill Gathering won't be too boring this time."
He didn't rush to take action, but took time to scan the whole place again.
In addition to Volcanic Rock Flame of Venerable Shi Yu, several equally powerful and distinctive flames erupted from several other directions in the square. Although they were not Heavenly Flames, they were all extremely rare Beast Flame or special flames. Obviously their owners were not easy to deal with.
"Hidden dragon and crouching tiger! However, this makes it more challenging, isn't it?"
Jiang Donghua chuckled and finally stopped watching.
He flipped his palm, and the simple and majestic Greenwood King Cauldron suddenly landed on the stone platform.
Immediately, his fingertips jumped, and a deep and pure blue flame rose up and began to burn the medicinal materials.
Although his flame is not Heavenly Flames, with Six-Revolution Peak Dou Zun's cultivation and Spiritual Realm Soul's control, its power and purity cannot be underestimated, and it instantly attracted a lot of attention.
Time continues to pass quietly in the eyes of countless expectant eyes.
When the finals reached the eighth day, the calm that had lasted for many days was finally broken!
The sky, which was originally distorted by thousands of flames, gathered a thick dark cloud from nowhere.
Among the dark clouds, dull thunder began to roll, like the roar of an ancient beast, and a heart-stopping coercion of heaven and earth slowly descended!
