Chapter 486 Pills Surpassing the Peak
It turned out that Princess Jingxia had already received the news and prepared the medicinal materials in advance, but she did not intend to let her alchemists take the stage.
Looking at Princess Jingxia, Leng Yun felt a warmth in her heart.
It turns out that Princess Jingxia, despite her sharp tongue, was actually very kind at heart.
"Then thank you very much, Princess." Leng Yun nodded and said.
"Hmph, don't be too happy yet. But with the medicinal herbs, I don't believe you can beat that old man," Princess Jingxia said arrogantly.
Leng Yun smiled slightly: "Then you just wait and see."
Everyone present was somewhat surprised. Logically speaking, Princess Jingxia and Marquis Wansheng should be in cahoots, but no one expected that Princess Jingxia would help Leng Yun.
The crowd began to discuss again, wondering what the relationship was between Leng Yun and Princess Jingxia.
However, as a result, no one dared to laugh at Leng Yun anymore.
"Alright, now that you two have prepared the medicinal herbs, let's begin refining them," the White King said with a smile.
Mei Yao sneered, then took out a large alchemy furnace. A green flame appeared in her hand and slowly burned in the furnace.
The flames of the syrup appeared, and the surrounding temperature immediately rose significantly.
The people around applauded Mei Yao's skill.
Leng Yun, on the other hand, calmly took out his alchemy furnace.
His alchemy furnace was antique and covered with simple yet powerful patterns.
The moment the alchemy furnace appeared, everyone around stared wide-eyed.
Because they discovered that the alchemy furnace Leng Yun possessed was far more advanced than the one Mei Yao had!
"Looks like this kid has some connections!" Deng Liqi said in a low voice.
"Hmph, no matter who he is, we must get rid of him in the future," the Prince of Beihai said fiercely, glancing at the Dragon Girl sitting below.
Mei Yao's face turned somewhat ugly, and her tone was full of jealousy: "Hmph, it's not enough to just have a better alchemy furnace; it also depends on the quality of the pills you refine."
Leng Yun ignored Mei Yao and stretched his hand toward the alchemy furnace, whereupon a yellow flame appeared.
At this moment, the surrounding temperature rose even more, significantly more intensely than when the flames of the syrup appeared.
Mei Yao was also surprised to find that when Leng Yun's flames appeared, his flames even seemed to retreat.
This horrified Mei Yao, who knew that he also possessed a strange fire. In his usual contests with others, his flames always had the upper hand, scaring away the flames of others.
It is precisely because of this that he was able to become a top-tier fifth-grade alchemist and rarely fail in competitions.
But what they are facing now is the flames of Leng Yun, the Five Elements Fire of the Ancestor of All Fires.
Everyone noticed the clues and was once again amazed by the resources Leng Yun possessed.
Then, the alchemy process began.
The two also had very different styles of alchemy.
Mei Yao is a professionally trained alchemist, so every movement she makes in alchemy is very disciplined and methodical.
In contrast, Leng Yun's movements were much more casual, as if he were a complete novice.
Although none of them were alchemists, most of them had witnessed others making medicine and were quite proficient in the theory.
So these people all shook their heads, thinking that Leng Yun was still too young. Although he had excellent physical attributes, he was still no match for Mei Yao.
"Hmph, really, look at his movements, he's not even as good as the alchemists under my command!" Princess Jingxia said, suddenly thinking that giving Leng Yun the medicinal herbs might have been a mistake.
"That's not necessarily the case." The alchemist under Princess Jingxia shook his head.
"What do you mean?" Jingxia asked.
“Princess, please look. Although Leng Yun’s movements are completely erratic, so much time has passed and he hasn’t encountered any problems. Moreover, his speed in refining medicine is even faster than Mei Yao’s,” the alchemist said.
Upon hearing this, Princess Jingxia and the others around her noticed the problem and all turned their eyes toward Leng Yun.
At this moment, the essence of the medicinal herbs had been extracted in Leng Yun's alchemy furnace, and the fusion of several essences had begun.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Mei Yao was still refining the last medicinal ingredient.
Leng Yun knew that since Mei Yao was a fifth-grade alchemist, he would definitely be able to refine pills of the peak fourth-grade level.
If Leng Yun and Mei Yao end up in a draw, Bai Yao Sect will definitely award the Koi Walnut to Mei Yao in order not to offend Wan Sheng Hou.
Therefore, Leng Yun must make his elixir surpass Mei Yao's elixir.
Thinking of this, Leng Yun had a thought, and the yellow flames in the alchemy furnace disappeared instantly, replaced by purple ghost fire.
Leng Yun's move left everyone speechless; not to mention that the fact that he possessed two types of flames within his body was already astonishing.
The mere act of switching flames was enough to astound everyone.
Even Mei Yao had to admire him, secretly thinking that even if he possessed two flames, he wouldn't dare to do such a thing.
Especially during the process of fusion of essences, the risk of doing so is too great. Even a ninth-grade alchemist would find it difficult to have such dazzling techniques.
"Could this kid really be an unparalleled genius in alchemy?!"
To outsiders, it seemed that Leng Yun had taken a great risk.
However, since Leng Yun relies entirely on the system to refine medicine, there is basically no risk involved.
However, by changing the flames and the contrast between high and low temperatures, the elixir became even more refined.
After another half hour, the two had finished refining their pills.
A faint fragrance permeated the entire three-story hall—the fragrance of newly refined elixirs.
"He actually refined a fourth-grade pill!" Princess Jingxia said in disbelief.
At this moment, the Dragon Girl's face remained completely calm; instead, she appeared somewhat impatient.
"Hmph, kid, you're a fourth-grade alchemist at such a young age, you're truly a genius." Mei Yao's face was full of confidence. "However, your movements are not very standardized, so the pills you refine can't possibly be as good as mine."
"No need for further explanation, just have a magical beast examine it and we'll know," Leng Yun said calmly.
"Hmph!" Mei Yao snorted coldly.
Then, the two people's pills were placed in silver plates, one in each direction, and a servant led in a third-grade magical beast.
This magical beast is called the Mountain-Crushing Rabbit, and its favorite food is Dragon Valley Pills.
As soon as the Mountain-Crushing Rabbit was put down, it ran towards the pills on the left without hesitation.
The outcome is already clear; over there lies Leng Yun's elixir!
"How—how is this possible? Mine is the pinnacle of a fourth-grade pill!" Mei Yao exclaimed in surprise to herself.
"I don't believe it. Could it be that your pills have already surpassed the peak of the fourth grade?" Mei Yao looked at Leng Yun in disbelief.
