Pill Fragrance

On the high platform, the usually taciturn Mu Lanfa glanced at Fama beside him and said seemingly indifferently, "Is this the only Fourth-grade Alchemist your Jia Ma Empire has sent to participate in this Alchemist Tournament?"

Upon hearing this, Fama turned to look at Mu Lanfa and laughed, "What, is the usually arrogant and conceited President Mu Lanfa also interested in the alchemists of our Jia Ma Empire?"

"Hmph!" Mu Lanfa snorted and said, "I'm not interested in the people from your Jia Ma Empire, but I don't think you old codger would just send a Fourth-grade Alchemist to participate in this Alchemist Tournament!"

Mu Lanfa's words also caught the attention of his Old Woman Zhang and Luo Jingyao, who immediately looked at Fama. Fama, however, showed no sign of nervousness and chuckled, "Just keep watching and you'll see! This year's Alchemist Tournament will definitely not disappoint you!"

Upon hearing Fama's words, the three guild leaders frowned slightly. This meant that either the Jia Ma Empire did not take this Alchemist Tournament seriously at all, or the Jia Ma Empire had a hidden plan. Compared to the first conjecture, they were more inclined to believe the second one!

However, the second option undoubtedly puts immense pressure on the three guild leaders, as they are all well aware that the Imperial Family of the three great empires attach great importance to this Alchemist Tournament!

Soon, the alchemists below began the first round of their alchemy competition!

Xiao Yu gently brushed his fingers across the Storage Ring, a flash of copper-green light appeared, and then a pale green Medicine Cauldron appeared on the black stone platform in front of Xiao Yu.

The Medicine Cauldron looked somewhat mottled and rusty. Yao Yue, Huo Yue'er, and Yan Xixi, who were standing next to him, were slightly taken aback. They had never actually seen Xiao Yu's Medicine Cauldron before, so seeing it now was quite unexpected for them.

Yao Yue, standing behind Xiao Yu, said, "Why didn't you use your Flame Condensation Cauldron Technique technique this time?"

Xiao Yu turned to look at Yao Yue and said, "Hurry up and refine the medicine. I'm afraid of standing out, so I'll let you have the first round!"

"Hmph!" Although Yao Yue was somewhat unconvinced, she couldn't refute Xiao Yu Xiao Yu's words when she thought of his monstrous alchemy skills!

Soon, they all calmed down and looked at the scroll on the stone platform in front of them. The medicinal materials they needed to refine in the first round were on this scroll.

Unrolling the scroll reveals a description of a fourth-grade pill called the Seven Absolutes Pill. The pill is classified as mid-fourth grade, and it's something that even a peak third- Fourth-grade Alchemist couldn't refine without considerable effort. Especially for peak third-grade alchemists, this refinement attempt will essentially eliminate all of them. However, if one can gain something from this pill-refining process, it will be worthwhile!

Xiao Yu glanced briefly at the pill formula on the scroll. Normally, Yao Dan are drawn by other alchemists using their Soul Power, but the formulas on these scrolls simply list the required medicinal materials and refining methods. This means that one must completely comprehend how to refine the pills!

More importantly, there are only two portions of the ingredients for this fourth-grade pill. If the two portions of ingredients are used up or the pill is not refined within the specified time, it will be considered a failure. It has to be said that this Alchemist Tournament Alchemist Tournament more difficult than the one held by the Jia Ma Empire!

Yan Xixi and Huo Yue'er, who were standing next to Xiao Yu, did not show much emotion after reading the scroll. However, Xiao Yu could sense that Yao Yue was frowning. After all, even a peak fourth-grade cultivator needed to think things through.

On the plaza, alchemists began refining pills, summoning their flames one after another. In an instant, flames of various colors appeared on the stone platform, creating a spectacular scene!

On Xiao Yu's side, Huo Yue'er was the first to start refining. Her alchemy furnace was a crimson Medicine Cauldron with five vents. Child Flame values his granddaughter very much!

Immediately afterward, Huo Yue'er waved her slender hand, and a milky-white flame appeared in the alchemy furnace. Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed slightly. This flame caused the Chaos in his dantian to fluctuate slightly, but only for a moment. Looking at the flames held by the other alchemists, including Zhao Feiyun, Zhao Feilong, and the purple-robed youth on the other side, the flames in their Huo Yue'er furnaces all bowed down to Huo Yue'er's flame the moment it appeared, as if in worship!

This flame looks somewhat different from the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, but it doesn't seem to be Heavenly Flames. Now it has even attracted the submission of other flames, which makes Xiao Yu a little puzzled!

Yan Xixi's pupils shrank as well. She could feel the fear in her own flames towards the flames in Huo Yue'er's hands. She was immediately horrified. Although her flames were Beast Flame Beast Flame, they were also extremely powerful. She had obtained them by chance, and now they were afraid of them.

"Could it be Heavenly Flames?" Yan Xixi suppressed her doubts, summoned the Beast Flame within her body, and began refining pills.

On the high platform, the four guild leaders of the Alchemist Guild all looked in Huo Yue'er's direction. Fama was also slightly surprised, "I really didn't expect that this girl would also possess a Heavenly Flames. Sure enough, Xiao Yu is surrounded by geniuses!"

The three guild leaders sitting to the side were quite unsettled. This was Heavenly Flames! Could this be the trump card of the Jia Ma Empire?

The three of them looked at Fama Fama, but after seeing the surprise on his face, they wondered, "Could it be that Fama didn't know this person possessed Heavenly Flames?"

Before everyone could recover from Huo Yue'er's surprise, Xiao Yu summoned his flame once again— the Chaos Flame!

Boom!

The dark golden Chaos Flame looked extremely noble and elegant. What shocked everyone was that they saw that their own flames had shrunk in size, even Huo Yue'er's flames. The light of the flames also dimmed, as if they were submitting to the Flame Monarch!

Even Huo Yue'er was somewhat surprised at this moment. She had never seen her flames behave like this before. She took a deep look at Xiao Yu's flames.

Although Yao Yue couldn't see Xiao Yu 'Xiao Yu flames, she knew they were a kind of Heavenly Flames, so this situation was quite normal for her. However, she still pouted and said, "You really managed to pull it off again!"

At this moment, Zhao Feiyun, Zhao Feilong, Luo Tian Yan Xixi all showed a hint of solemnity in their eyes. If someone could possess such a flame, then the alchemist's strength must not be lacking!
