Fight to break the sky

Chapter 318 Failure

This strange scene that suddenly appeared on the square was also a big surprise for Xiao Yan. Looking at the stunned glances directed at him, Xiao Yan could only helplessly shrug his shoulders. With a flick of his hand, cyan flames appeared. After being thrown into the medicine cauldron, the flames on the hands of the contestants returned to normal.

"This guy" muttered in a low voice. The little princess was a little depressed. She had never seen the tyranny of the alien fire with her own eyes, so she always thought that her "Dry Blue Water Flame" would not be much weaker than it, but her own flames had previously Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that it was a supernatural manifestation. It was far inferior to the strange fire. Otherwise, it would not have such a surrendered form.

Compared to the little princess's depression, Liu Ling's face was a little ugly. This brown flame was obtained from the body of a fifth-level monster that was comparable to a human fighting king after his teacher invited many strong people to do so. , he didn’t expect that he had just used it today, and before he had even made a big splash, he was bowing to someone else’s flame. This really made him speechless.

"Hmph, what's the use of a light flame? If you can't control it, you will end up playing with fire and burning yourself." Yanli sneered in a low voice as he poured the black flame in his hand into the medicine cauldron.

In the square, as the strange scene disappeared, all the contestants gradually returned their minds to the test questions they were about to face. They poured the flames in their hands into the medicine cauldron, then took out the medicinal materials from their respective rings and started. The first step in refining the elixir: refining!

Xiao Yan stared closely at the medicine cauldron, and occasionally waved his palm to throw one or two medicinal plants on the stone platform into the medicine cauldron, then controlled the temperature of the flame, and slowly burned the medicine according to the information recorded on the prescription. Slowly refining the essence needed for refining the elixir.

Although he had an extremely precise prescription in his mind, Xiao Yan did not dare to be careless at all. There were only three ingredients prepared this time. No matter which ingredient was missing due to a mistake, it would seriously increase the failure rate of the refining. , this is absolutely intolerable to Xiao Yan, so even with his ability to control the Qinglian Earth Core Fire, he still does not dare to throw in all the medicinal materials in a swarm, but chooses to refine two at a time This way of insurance for medicinal materials.

There are many people who share this idea with Xiao Yan, including the little princess, Liu Ling, and even Yan Li, who has always been arrogant and arrogant. At this moment, he is also carefully controlling the heat with a solemn face, carefully refining each of these plants. As for medicinal materials, everyone knows how heartbreaking it will be to lose a medicinal plant at this moment.

In the huge square, all the contestants remained silent. Only the crackling sound of the flames refining the medicinal materials echoed in the square.

Under the influence of this quiet atmosphere, the seats on both sides that originally seemed a little noisy gradually became quieter, and all eyes were wandering on the alchemists in the square below.

"Sure enough, these young people are all saving their own." At the VIP table, Nalan Jie looked at the flames rising above the square below and couldn't help but smile: "But looking at the strange scene just now, Little friend Yan Xiao’s strange fire is even better.”

"The strange fire is a rare thing that even the ancient elders have never owned. The energy is naturally far beyond the flames that the little princess and others obtained from the monsters." Nalan Yanran on the side said with a smile.

"Haha, yes." Nodding, Nalan Jie suddenly turned to Nalan Yanran, frowned and said, "Did the person who came from Yunlan Sect this morning urge you to go back?"

"Yes." Nalan Yanran nodded slightly.

"Alas" Nalan Jie sighed softly, and his voice was a little low: "Is it because the three-year appointment has arrived?"

Hearing this, Nalan Yanran's bare hands that were just about to remove the black hair on her forehead froze slightly, pursed her red lips, and said softly: "It must be for some reason."

"Xiao Yan has disappeared for nearly two years. I also told you that when he left Wutan City, he had already condensed the cyclone and became a fighter. This was less than a year. You should also know how difficult it was for the fighter to improve his fighting spirit during the period before him, but he rose again at lightning speed in less than a year. This means that he was strangely The disappeared cultivation talent has been restored." Nalan Jie took a long breath and said in a deep voice: "In the past two years, there is no information about him, but I think, according to his cultivation talent, I am afraid that at least he is also there. Fighting master level”

Nalan Yanran nodded.

"Well, I don't want to say anything more. You won't listen if I say it, but I hope that no matter who wins or loses in this three-year contract, you can apologize to him." Nalan Jie rubbed. He rubbed his forehead and said a little tiredly.

"Apologise?" Hearing this, Nalan Yanran frowned slightly, and then stared at Nalan Jie stubbornly: "I'm not wrong! Why do you have to apologize?"

"You could obviously go to the Xiao family privately and ask Xiao Zhan if you can cancel the engagement, and maybe you wouldn't cause these things, but you still want to use the power of the Yunlan Sect to forcefully oppress the Xiao family. Breaking off the engagement, you actually know how much damage it has done to the reputation of the Xiao family, but in recent years, because your status has become more and more prominent, you are unwilling or unwilling to apologize." Nalan Jie looked at himself indifferently. The granddaughter said: "But you know, if this continues, it will only deepen the gap between Xiao Yan and you."

"No matter how deep the gap is, it is impossible for him and I to be together. Since it is impossible, it doesn't matter how deep the gap is." Nalan Yanran frowned slightly, waved her hand to stop Nalan Jie, and said softly: "Grandpa , please don’t worry about my affairs. Anyway, after this three-year appointment, he and I will never have anything to do with each other again. It’s not like no one wants your granddaughter, so why do you always miss him? Okay, Don’t say anything and just watch the game with peace of mind.”

After saying that, Nalan Yanran turned her head and cast her gaze towards the square, a faint fighting spirit covering her ears, obviously she didn't want to listen to Nalan Jie's nagging anymore.

Seeing her like this, Nalan Jie was a little angry, but he had nothing to do. In addition, this place was a public area, so he could only glare at her fiercely, and then looked helplessly into the square.

At this time, nearly half an hour had passed since the assessment began. In the square, some alchemists with few refining materials had already refined the medicinal materials and began to prepare for the next step.

Ignoring the contestants who had finished refining, Xiao Yan looked at the medicine cauldron intently. His left hand occasionally threw in a medicinal plant, but his right hand quickly sucked out the refined material from the medicine cauldron, and then put it into the jade pot. in a bottle.

As he was so busy, a little sweat gradually appeared on Xiao Yan's forehead. Without wiping it off, he put the last medicinal plant on the stone platform into the medicine cauldron. After about ten minutes, he carefully put the last medicinal material into the medicine cauldron. A portion of the refined material was absorbed and put into a jade bottle.

Seeing how smoothly the refining process went, Xiao Yan finally breathed a long sigh of relief. He turned around and looked around. He was a little surprised to find that the little princess, Liu Ling and Yanli had not yet finished refining. .

"Tsk, tsk, it seems that the level of the elixir they want to refine this time is not low. Although the number of refined medicinal materials does not represent the level of the elixir, generally speaking, the more materials that need to be refined, the more complex it is. The level should not be low." Xiao Yan shook his head slightly, rested for a while, and then started the next step of melting the pill with a solemn expression.

Green flames rose slowly in the medicine cauldron. Xiao Yan stared closely at the rising flames. After a moment, his hands suddenly started to dance. Bottles of previously refined essence materials were poured into the medicine cauldron in an orderly manner. In the cauldron, flames suddenly surged up, wrapping the materials instantly

His eyes were slightly closed, and the surging soul power spread out from Xiao Yan's eyebrows. At this moment, the soul power almost poured out. Every subtle reaction of the material fusion in the medicine cauldron would be returned to his mind in an instant. Then use it to quickly compare it with the reaction described in the prescription to judge whether the direction of alchemy is correct.

When Xiao Yan started to melt the elixir, the little princess, Liu Ling, and Yan Li also completed the refining of the materials one after another. Without any rest or nonsense, they immediately put the refined materials into the medicine. In the cauldron, the process of melting the pills also started.

In the huge square, there are slight muffled sounds from time to time. These sounds are very familiar to the alchemist, because every time the refining of the elixir fails, it is this extremely annoying sound that is followed by these sounds. , from time to time, contestants with dejected faces left the venue sadly, and as a result, the number of more than a hundred contestants in the square was gradually decreasing.

This conference is like a sieve with many leaks, eliminating those small and weak players. Those who are qualified to go through several rounds of screening and remain are naturally the best of the younger generation. .

Time passed slowly. On the square, some of the contestants who had calm faces began to feel slightly out of breath. Such a high load of consumption was really extremely tiring.

"Can you tell which of the elixirs they refined is of higher rank?" Haibodong walked slowly behind Fa Ma, looked at the square, and asked in a low voice.

"Not yet." Shaking his head, Fa Ma muttered: "But before the elixir is about to take shape, we can also see some clues. Before the fourth-grade elixir takes shape, it will produce a different elixir. The stronger the fragrance, the stronger the elixir fragrance, which means that the elixir he refined is of a higher grade. When the fifth-grade elixir is formed, it will produce substantial energy ripples out of thin air because it contains too much energy."

Haibodong nodded slightly, stopped asking questions, put his hands behind his back, and quietly waited for the end of the game.

When the time was once again beyond the expectations of countless people, after half an hour, Fa Ma on the high platform suddenly changed his expression, and a touch of joy appeared on his old face. He looked in the direction of Xiao Yan, where the dark red cauldron was In the middle, a faint fragrance of elixir is slowly spreading out.

"This little guy is going to become a pill so soon? The strange fire is really extraordinary."

The faint medicinal fragrance that penetrated from Xiao Yan's medicine cauldron was also noticed by the little princess, Liu Ling and Yan Li not far away from him. The two people in front were slightly surprised, but Yan Li took a few sniffs. After the elixir fragrance, he sneered disdainfully. According to the concentration of the elixir fragrance, it is not as good as the elixir he refined this time. If this is the bottom line of that guy, then the champion this time should be It is none other than Tayanli.

With his eyes fixed on the green elixir that was rolling endlessly in the medicine cauldron, Xiao Yan also took a sip of the elixir fragrance that overflowed, and shook his head slightly. It is very difficult to win with this ordinary three-line green elixir. .

"We have no choice but to fight." Xiao Yan sighed lowly, and suddenly took a deep breath of the air that was scented with elixirs. He quickly took out a lavender elixir pill from the ring with his right hand, then stuffed it into his mouth, and slightly While chewing, at the same time, the soul power controlling the cyan flame suddenly retracted. As the soul power retracted, the originally turbulent cyan flame also quietly became smaller with a "pop" sound, and just before the cyan flame retracted, The moment the flame was about to disappear, Xiao Yan opened his mouth, and a ball of purple flame flew out, and finally poured into the medicine cauldron.

"Does this little guy actually want to refine the second pattern?" Looking at Xiao Yan's actions, Fa Ma, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, felt his heart tighten again. He also knew that if Xiao Yan wanted to win, just It is absolutely impossible to rely on the ordinary three-marked Qingling Pill, but to refine the three-marked Qingling Pill, it will be the most difficult to grasp every time the flames change. You know, even when he refined it, He had failed two or three times before he succeeded, but Xiao Yan only got the prescription for one night, and there were many key points that he had not explored thoroughly. After all, even if he was talented, he would not be able to do it in such a short period of time. In this time, I will study the fourth grade medicine prescription thoroughly.

"Little guy, please pay attention to yourself. There are not many opportunities."

Whispering in a low voice, at a certain moment, Fa Ma's face suddenly changed. He suddenly noticed that the originally peaceful flames in Xiao Yan's medicine cauldron suddenly became chaotic. This is the transition between flames, which is the easiest and most difficult to occur. Mistakes to avoid.

He stared closely at the center of the square, where the purple flames the color of the medicine cauldron almost broke out of the shackles of the top cover, and the air around the stone platform was smoked to the point of becoming unreal.

After making such a big noise, countless glances from the audience immediately came over. When they saw Xiao Yan's face that was dripping with sweat and slightly red, they all screamed in low voices.

"Alas, it failed." Feeling the increasingly violent fluctuations, Fa Ma sighed softly after a while, with a slight bitterness on his old face.

Shortly after Fa Ma's voice fell, a muffled sound suddenly and harshly came from the medicine cauldron in front of Xiao Yan. The purple flames were quietly extinguished, and faint black ashes poured out from the medicine cauldron.

"Alas" after hearing that muffled sound, a series of sighs of regret rang out from both sides of the audience.

(My friend is getting married tomorrow, so I will be busy for a day or two, which may cause the update to be a bit slow. Sorry.)
