Time passes by every second.
For many people, this period of time was extremely difficult to endure, so the next day, there were not many spectators outside the square who had originally been so crowded.
However, for Ye Chen and other alchemists who participated in the competition, they were already immersed in a state of oblivion at this time and did not pay any attention to the changes in the outside world.
After a full day and a half, the extraction of all the medicinal materials for Yi Ling Dan was finally completed. After being roasted by the stars for a day and a night, the several medicinal materials finally gradually weakened their repulsion to each other and finally began to merge.
This step is also the most critical step!
Taking a deep breath, Ye Chen ignored the sweat that had already seeped out of his forehead. The huge soul power spread out instantly, covering the entire medicine cauldron. He observed the subtle changes in the elixir liquid in the flame closely, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.
At this time, there were only a few contestants left in the square. After all, there were not many who could refine fifth-grade elixirs, and fourth-grade elixirs would not take that long.
"Sure enough! The young man with silver flame also refined fifth-grade elixir!" Song Lian has been paying attention to Ye Chen's every move for some time. At this point, he can also see that the grade of the elixir refined by the other party must be not low.
"Lao Lu, what do you think the identity of that young man is?" After pondering for a long time, Song Lian couldn't help but ask his old friend.
Lu Chen rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "How would I know that?"
"But he seems to be wearing the alchemist badge issued by the Ye family, and he is so young. Could he be a genius of the Ye family?"
Of course, Lu Chen was just saying this casually. He didn't really believe that anyone from the Ye family would travel thousands of miles to attend the Alchemist Conference in Xuantian City...
That's totally degrading yourself!
However, his words touched Song Lian's heart, and his eyes narrowed completely.
"I say, Old Monster Song, you are not taking this seriously, are you?" As an old friend for decades, Lu Chen knows this old friend of his too well.
In this situation, it is obvious that Song Lian took his words seriously!
"Why can't you take it seriously?" Song Lian asked back.
"You should also know that when the ancestor of the Ye family passed away, Danta sent Elder Mu Rong to offer condolences, right?"
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I know. But the Ye family's ancestor, Ye Xun, was one of the eight elders of Danta when he was alive. Danta naturally cannot take his death lightly."
Song Lian immediately smiled and said, "That's right. A few years ago, when I went to Danta, I had the honor of meeting Elder Mu once. I heard from him at that time that the Ye family seemed to have a monstrous disciple in this generation. His talent was so strong that even Elder Mu was amazed..."
"If that's the case, then it makes sense that this young man is a member of the Ye family!"
"That doesn't make sense!" Lu Chen retorted directly. "I heard that the demon from the Ye family is only thirteen or fourteen years old. He's probably still practicing alchemy at the Ye family. How could he possibly come to our Xuantian City?"
Song Lian chuckled and was not angry. He had just said it casually.
He naturally knew that the genius of the Ye family could not appear here. After all, if a boy of thirteen or fourteen could become a fifth-grade alchemist, then it would not be as simple as describing him as a monster!
…
…
Fusion is the most important step in alchemy. If there is even the slightest mistake during the process, the medicinal materials extracted with great difficulty will be burned in an instant. Ye Chen failed before because of this reason, so he dared not be distracted at all on this step.
Fortunately, Ye Chen was lucky this time and the worst situation did not happen. After a full half day of fusion, a red pill prototype finally took shape slowly in the medicine cauldron!
At the moment when the prototype of the pill took shape, everyone around it clearly felt that the energy of the surrounding heaven and earth suddenly fluctuated, just like throwing a huge rock into a calm lake, causing waves to surge.
Fifth-grade elixir!
Except for the two ancestors Song and Lu, all other alchemists reacted to this commotion.
Many contestants who had become fourth-grade alchemists couldn't help but look in Ye Chen's direction...
Although everyone knew that it would be impossible to win the championship after refining the fourth-grade elixir, there was still a glimmer of hope in everyone's heart.
But now that someone's fifth-grade elixir is about to come out, they will directly lose the qualification to compete for the championship.
I don't know how many people are secretly praying in their hearts that Ye Chen will fail in making the pill.
Unfortunately, there seems to be no gods in this world who can fulfill their wishes, so they can only watch Ye Chen getting closer and closer to the final pill.
As time went by, the somewhat irregularly shaped prototype of the red pill gradually became round, and brilliant light emanated from it, making it look like a ruby.
At the moment when the elixir burst out with brilliant light, circles of energy ripples as if they were real, centered on the medicine cauldron, continuously bursting out in all directions. The endless momentum was quite spectacular.
"Success!" Looking at the familiar red beam of light rising from above the medicine cauldron, Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, the Yi Ling Dan was successfully refined on the first try!
At the same time, a strong energy fluctuation was also heard from the other corner of the square...
He took out a white jade medicine bottle, carefully filled it with the Yi Ling Dan that he had successfully refined, and then placed it on the alchemy table. Ye Chen couldn't help but turn his head to look in the direction where the energy fluctuations came from.
"It's really him..."
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the young alchemist who was suspected to be Song Qing, and smiled slightly in his heart.
It seems that in this Alchemist Conference, my opponent will be the guy opposite.
"Looking at the energy fluctuations, the fifth-grade elixir the other party refined is definitely not simple, but it is probably inferior to my Yiling Pill..."
Although not all pills make the louder the noise when they are made, it is at least the simplest criterion for judgment.
Just like Song Lian and the other person on the rostrum now, their expressions are a little solemn at this moment.
"Old Monster Song, the pills refined by your grandson seem to be inferior to those of the kid with silver flame. It seems he is going to lose..." Lu Chen said to Song Lian with a hint of gloating in his tone.
Song Lian frowned, feeling a little heavy in his heart.
"The Four Purple Yang Pills that Song Qing refined this time are fifth-grade high-level pills, but I didn't expect them to be even weaker than the other party's. Could it be that this kid refined a fifth-grade peak pill?!"
Thinking of this, Song Lian still felt a little unbelievable!
