Chapter 432 Taking a Risk
On the Seven Heavens Continent, alchemy is a very noble profession, and everyone wants to become an alchemist, but not everyone has such talent.
Those who did not become alchemists often talked about alchemists in their daily lives.
Besides battles, what people enjoy watching most is the competition among alchemists.
Therefore, although everyone is not an alchemist, they can all say something about the alchemist's methods.
Many of these people were seeing Leng Yun refine medicine for the first time, and some even began to doubt whether the head of Leng Family Manor was actually an alchemist.
Because a normal alchemist wouldn't be so casual.
Only those from Leng Family Village who had previously witnessed Leng Yun's alchemy skills knew that this method of alchemy was actually one of Leng Yun's unique abilities.
In contrast, Elder Li's pill-refining process was much more conventional, following the established rules of alchemists.
Although Leng Yun's alchemy was casual, it did not affect his progress. On the contrary, because of the flames, he was even faster than Elder Li.
Because of the flames, the temperature in the entire square suddenly rose significantly, and with the crowds of people jostling each other, those in the front rows were already drenched in sweat.
However, they all stared intently at the ring, none of them wanting to miss such a match.
After all, it was a duel between fifth-grade alchemists, a competition that was not common in ordinary times, enough for these people to talk about for months.
Two hours passed, and by the time Elder Li threw in the last medicinal herb, Leng Yun had already extracted all the essence.
Next comes the most important step in alchemy: fusion.
This step is a nightmare for all alchemists; the slightest carelessness will lead to failure.
However, Leng Yun didn't need to worry at all, because he relied on the system to refine the pills, so he didn't have to worry about it at all.
As they spoke, several flames from Leng Yun's alchemy furnace gradually approached, each flame containing a drop of herbal essence.
The process of striking the essence and fusing must be precise in terms of force, speed, sequence, and temperature; even the slightest deviation is unacceptable.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Leng Yun's several herbal essences began to blend.
Suddenly, a purple flame flashed past amidst the yellow flames, and many people didn't even notice it.
Leng Yun's heart skipped a beat. This was not under his control, but rather controlled automatically by the system. He immediately realized that the temperature must have been too high during the fusion process, so the system automatically activated the purple flame.
Although purple flames are fire, they are extremely cold, making them perfect for cooling.
"I never imagined that flames could be used like this!" Leng Yun exclaimed excitedly, as if he had discovered a new continent.
Elder Li happened to witness what had just happened.
He was incredibly surprised, looking at Leng Yun and muttering to himself, "I knew this kid had two flames in his body! I never expected them to work together so perfectly!"
Leng Yun's control over flames was something even this alchemist with decades of experience couldn't match.
"If we don't get rid of this brat, he will definitely be a major disaster for our Qiyao Pavilion in the future!" Elder Li thought coldly.
As they spoke, the several essential liquids in Leng Yun's alchemy furnace had successfully fused together, transforming into a perfectly round, blue liquid. The final step was now the formation of the pill.
However, Leng Yun thought of another problem at this moment.
Since the opponent is also a peak fifth-grade alchemist, even if Leng Yun refines the pill, he can only fight the opponent to a draw at most, so he still cannot obtain the Wushan Grass.
In order to achieve victory, Leng Yun must take a risky tactic and make his pills surpass the peak level of fifth-grade pills.
Thinking of this, Leng Yun suddenly had an idea.
The so-called "rebirth pill" does not actually transform a person's body after consumption. Rather, it cleanses the body, making one feel reborn from the inside out.
Since it has a cleansing effect, it is natural to add cyan shimmer to enhance its cleansing effect!
At the same time, the flames in Leng Yun's alchemy furnace slowly rose, indicating that the pill was about to be successfully refined.
Meanwhile, Elder Li had just successfully fused the essence liquid.
With a thought, Leng Yun's wrist ring emitted a wisp of cyan light.
Although the amount used was extremely small, Leng Yun felt that a considerable amount of his power had been consumed.
The cyan light slowly flowed into the flames, enveloping the nearly formed pill.
Immediately afterwards, the entire pill began to vibrate violently.
Even Leng Yun was startled: "Could it be that the amount of Flowing Light was too much? I've already tried to use as little as possible!"
Then, Leng Yun realized that he must have underestimated the power of the Flowing Light Halo.
In everyone's eyes, Leng Yun was about to succeed, but suddenly something happened.
Feng Mei and Grand Tutor Pang watched Leng Yun nervously from below the stage, wondering what had happened. Meanwhile, the other people from Leng Family Village gasped in shock.
"Hmph, what, you're no good now!" Elder Li mocked aptly.
At this moment, his pills were also entering the final stage, which is why he was able to pay attention to Leng Yun's condition.
At this moment, Leng Yun ignored Elder Li and focused entirely on controlling the flames.
He had to concentrate all his power on the flames to suppress the pill's vibrations.
This continued for two minutes, and Elder Li's pill was completed. A perfectly round, cyan pill appeared, and even Leng Yun had to admit that it was a top-grade fifth-rank pill.
Meanwhile, Leng Yun finally managed to control the flames, and the pill stabilized. After a few minutes, he successfully refined the pill.
However, on Leng Yun's pill, there was a faint blue light that swirled around it.
This outcome was unexpected by everyone. They believed that if everything went smoothly, Leng Yun should have finished refining it first.
Leng Yun breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that his adventure was worthwhile.
"What kind of pill is this?" Elder Li sneered.
Because in normal understanding, the Rebirth Pill should look like the one in Elder Li's hand, not like Leng Yun's, which has a ring of blue light around it.
“Of course this is the Rebirth Pill! You old codger, you have no knowledge. Brother Yun’s pill is the advanced version.” Feng Mei said, clearly favoring Leng Yun.
Leng Yun was left speechless, both amused and exasperated by Feng Mei's antics.
"Hmph, a normal Rebirth Pill isn't like this!" Elder Li seized on this point and wouldn't let it go.
"Whether it's the Rebirth Pill or not, and whose pill is the victorious, we'll know once we've verified it. There's no need to waste time here," Leng Yun said decisively...
