Heretic Doctor Zihou

On the azure blue sky, the sun continued to move towards the middle sky, and the light released became warmer and brighter. The peaks and peaks in the distance are hidden in the sea of ​​clouds and mist, and they appear from time to time, like a fairyland in the legend.

On the Seventh Heaven, the Qualifying Competition is proceeding nervously.

The huge square was occupied by densely packed medicine cauldrons and alchemy masters, and clusters of hot flames were burning under each medicine cauldron in the neatly arranged line. Waves of green smoke rose up, and then was blown away by the breeze from time to time.

The alchemists who were immersed in their alchemy world, looked attentively, staring at the medicine cauldron in front of them, every string in their bodies was tight, afraid of any accidents!

This is not just a ranking of their disciples in the Shenhuo Danzong for the next year, but also an examination of their Dandao practice over the years! No matter from which aspect they consider, they must show their best side today!

Dense sweat came out of the foreheads of every alchemist who participated in the Grand Competition, but they were particularly unaware.

Before you know it, it's already in the sky!

According to the regulations of the Shenhuo Danzong, the disciples participating in the Grand Competition have a total of three hours to complete the alchemy. For an alchemist, the three-hour alchemy time is actually neither short but definitely not long.

And now, an hour and a half has passed since the arrogant competition started! Half of the time passed, and most alchemy masters had already passed halfway through their alchemy progress. It will take another hour, and they will be able to successfully refine the pill without accident.

Of course, some people are slower, but at least some of the medicinal materials have already been melted. As long as they speed up their progress later, there is no problem in completing the alchemy.

Among the tens of thousands of alchemists present, only one was the slowest!

That person is Zihou!

Not to mention melting the medicinal materials, she didn't even take out the medicine pot!

"What's the matter? Why hasn't the goddess started yet?"

"I don't know, she seems to be doing something with those Lingzhi medicinal materials... But how can I still take care of Lingzhi and medicinal materials?"

"Does the goddess plan to refine any special pill, that's why the progress is slower?"

...

At this moment, those onlookers who hadn't worried about Zihou before, had already started to panic. An hour and a half...This is too long. In an hour and a half, the Big Bi is about to end!

As the saying goes: the emperor is not in a hurry to die the eunuch. These onlookers were nervous to death on the side, but Zihou still played with her medicinal materials unhurriedly.

In fact, Zihou is not as laid back as others seem. She has now started alchemy. It's just that the step she is taking is called'purification', which is a necessary process for refining Peerless Pill.

Although spiritual plants and medicinal materials are heaven and earth spiritual things, they will inevitably be contaminated with some dust and dirt, and even dark breath and elements. How pure is such a godlike treasure? Naturally it is impossible to allow the existence of any impurities!

The so-called ‘purification’ is actually the ‘cleaning’ of spiritual plants and medicinal materials, just like we usually clean certain things with water. Of course, the process of ‘purification’ uses the power of the soul instead of water.

This process is extremely important and takes a lot of time. It requires the alchemist to wash the Lingzhi medicinal materials again and again, until the Lingzhi medicinal materials are dust-free. Therefore, the patience of an alchemist is particularly tested. Once this process is not well grasped, even if the subsequent steps are completed perfectly, there is a high probability that the alchemy will fail!

This is what Zihou is doing now.

Although the vast majority of people do not understand the behavior of Zihou, this does not mean that the knowledgeable old guys on the podium do not know!

"Purification... This girl really wants to refine the Peerless Pill!" A veteran stood up in shock, the expression on his face was not surprising.

"Unexpectedly, this girl would be so dare!"

"Yeah... we really underestimated her!"

...

They only guessed that “(Zihou)” would refine the Peerless Pill from the Lingzhi medicinal materials they requested from “(Zihou)” before, but they really realized after seeing “(Zihou)” taking this step Their guess is true!

All of a sudden, several elders and suzerain Gu Qing all felt complicated!

Thousands of years later, in the world when the Pill God was extinct, another person actually tried the Peerless Pill on the land of their God Fire Pill Sect!

Regardless of success or failure, this is a feat that is enough to make them thrilling!

Finally, just after noon, the "purification" of Zihou was finally completed. Zihou also did not stop, directly entering the melting of Lingzhi and medicinal materials!

Zihou waved his hand, and a black treasure tripod appeared from the void and stayed in front of Zihou. A deep buzzing sound was mixed with a heavy ancient breath, which made people feel stunned!

At the same time, the index and middle fingers of Zihou moved together, and with a movement of thought, a cluster of red and blue flames appeared out of thin air at the fingertips of Zihou dancing and burning!

After devouring all kinds of flames, the ghost fire of today is no longer what it used to be. Looking at the entire continent, the only thing that can match the Nether Fire is now the Suzaku Sacred Fire!

As soon as the ghost fire came out, it seemed that a powerful wave of air spread towards the surroundings, and the surrounding flames all dimmed.

If it weren't for Zihou to control most of the coercion of the ghost fire, otherwise the flames of the tens of thousands of alchemists around would be extinguished!

Under the control of Zihou, the flames of the Netherworld Xiehuo suddenly rose several feet, and the flames licked against the dark body of the Vientiane Baoding, warming up the Vientiane Baoding.

As soon as Wanxiang Baoding and Netherworld Fire came out, several elders and suzerain Gu Qing who were not so calm on the rostrum rushed to the edge of the rostrum without any image, staring at them with unbelievable eyes. The scene before us!

The elders and mentors of the internal and external sects and mentors on the side of the rostrum who were serious about watching the big competition were startled by these unstable old guys...

I don't know how the stable veteran suzerain suddenly changed into a shock!

"This is not... Xianni Patriarch's..."

"Vientiane... Baoding, and Nether Fire..."

"How is this possible? Didn't Wanxiang Baoding and Netherworld Xiehuo sit with Patriarch Xianni long ago?"

...

When it comes to Dan Dao, there is one person who must be remembered and respected forever. That person is Xianni. As the first alchemy **** in the history of the ancient gods, the appearance of Xianni opened the prelude to the peak of alchemy in the ancient gods. It can be said that the alchemy can reach its peak in the ancient times, and the immortal rebellion is indispensable!

This great power who cultivated the way of alchemy to the extreme, relied on a Vientiane treasure tripod and a cluster of ghost fire to multiply the alchemy to the extreme. Shenhuo Danzong was created by him. As for the other eight pill gods following Shenhuo Danzong, all of them grew up under his influence!

The only regret is that Venerable Xianni didn't hear from him long after he became a pill god. His Wanxiang Treasure Ding and a cluster of ghostly evil fire fell silent as he disappeared. The mystery of Xianni has always been the regret of every alchemist on the mainland for thousands of years!

"Thousands of years ago, Patriarch Xianni used the Wanxiang Baoding and Nether Fire to refine the first peerless treasure pill on the mainland. Since then, it has created a new era of alchemy. It will still be here after thousands of years, similar I don’t know what will happen in this situation?” A senator said with deep emotion.

Although they didn't witness the events of that year with their own eyes, the scene before them is surprisingly similar to history. If this is not a coincidence, is there a certain number in the dark?

Zihou is immersed in her own world of alchemy. She does not know that her every move has to some extent overlapped with the mainland's first alchemy master.

Zihou finally began to melt the medicinal material Lingzhi, which greatly relieved the onlookers. Although the progress is still seriously lagging behind, it is no longer standing still! They firmly believe that with the strength of the Zihou god, everything must be in her grasp!

The Peerless Pill is naturally incomparable with other levels of pill. Its requirements for the melting of spiritual plants and medicinal materials are also very high and it is crushing!

The medicinal material Lingzhi can't melt fast at all. It can't be slow at all, and it won't work at all if you owe it...In short, everything is accurate to the slightest. The slightest loss is a thousand miles away. If there is any sloppy, then all previous efforts will be lost!

Although Zihou is already an experienced alchemist, he is also exhausted physically and mentally in the process. In the previous few days' attempts, she did not know how many times she had planted in the step of melting Lingzhi medicinal materials. Therefore, now she is more and more aware of the difficulty and importance of this process!

Time passed quickly, and soon the sun was almost halfway westward.

There is less than a quarter of an hour before the end of the big match. Most of the disciples had already finished alchemy, one after another, after handing over the medicine to the elders in charge of the judgment, they withdrew from the square one after another.

Before long, there was no one in the huge square except the one in the center.

"Oh my god, what's the matter? Time has come, the goddess seems to have not finished yet?"

"I don't know, but the goddess doesn't seem to be nervous at all..."

"What the **** is going on? The goddess should have been done, logically? Is there any problem?"

...

Everyone couldn't believe it. Until the end of time, Zihou hadn't finished alchemy. With the strength of Zihou, the probability of this kind of thing happening is almost insignificant? !

The elder in charge of the examination checked the time, and when he opened his mouth to announce the end of the examination and planned to stop Zihou, he was stopped by a voice.

"Hold on, let her go..."

This is what the suzerain Gu Qing said. The elder closed his mouth obediently. But his heart was very puzzled. This kind of thing has never happened in the previous ranking competitions, he is very puzzled why the sovereign would do this? !

Not only the elder who invigilated the exam was confused, but the Shenhuo Danzong, including a group of onlookers, also didn’t know what was going on right now...

Zihou is immersed in his own world, and has long forgotten the flow of time. The afternoon sunlight struck her obliquely, coating her white dress with a soft gold border. At this time, she is focused and sinking, and her impeccable image is even more amazing.

Three hours later, Zihou finally completed the melting of the medicinal material Lingzhi. The next step is the extremely important spiritual fusion.

The process of spiritual liquid fusion is to fuse the liquids of various spiritual herbs that were previously melted together. This is an important step in determining the properties and functions of the pill. This process not only requires extremely high technical ability of the alchemist, but also very demanding on the flame. Especially in the process of refining the Peerless Baodan, the importance of this step is infinitely highlighted.

Zihou adjusted the attributes of the ghost fire to the strongest, and then began to carefully fuse the spiritual fluid. This process was very stable halfway through, without any problems. However, towards the end, serious problems occurred!

But seeing that the spirit fluid in the medicine cauldron could not fuse unexpectedly!

Zihou breathed tightly, and a huge pressure fell on her shoulders. At this critical moment, if the spirit fluid cannot fuse for too long, it will directly lead to the failure of alchemy!

Rao is calm Zihou, and now he is a little panicked.

The specific situation of Zihou is not clear to the veterans on the podium, but they also feel the seriousness of the matter from the subtle emotional changes in Zihou!

"That girl seems to be in trouble!"

"God, don't have problems at critical moments!"

"Don't worry, we should trust her ability..."

...

Looking at the affairs of the world, the veterans who are indifferent at this moment all have their hearts hanging in their throats.

Zihou was already in a cold sweat. The spirit fluid in the Wanxiang Treasure Ding seemed to be iron-hearted, no matter how hard she tried, the spirit fluid would not fuse together!

damn it!

Zihou cursed secretly in his heart.

The situation in Zihou continued, and it was so serious that it could be felt by the onlookers. They faintly felt that something was wrong, and squeezed a cold sweat for Zihou in their hearts.

At the critical moment, Zihou saw the evil fire blazing under the medicine cauldron. The colors of red and blue are intertwined, which is shocking.

Zihou suddenly reacted. Although Nether Fire is extremely powerful, it is still not its peak. Not only that, because of its dual attributes, Nether Fire will be weakened by the blue attribute in terms of heat.

"It's very likely that the spirit fluid can't fuse because the heat is not enough!" Zihou thought of this possibility.

If the heat is not enough, this is not a big problem. In this world, is there any existence that is hotter than the Suzaku torch?

Ever since, Zihou did not hesitate, after offering the Nether Fire, the Suzaku sacred fire was offered.

At this time, she did not deliberately hide the coercion of the Suzaku flame. Because it is obviously unnecessary.

As soon as the Suzaku sacred fire came out, the mighty coercion of the moment spread to the surroundings, and the natural purification power in the sacred fire, wherever it passed, all the darkness was annihilated!

A heat wave hits head-on. All the alchemists present who have different fires, spirit fires, earth fires, sky fires, and even sacred fires in their bodies, all feel that their flames have been greatly suppressed, and their flames seem to have suffered a huge amount. Only a few pitiful sparks came out...

Zihou is naturally impossible for the ghost fire to swallow the Suzaku sacred fire now. She just hoped that the Suzaku Sacred Fire would help Nether Fire!

Under the Wanxiang Baoding, a touch of red gold suddenly appeared. The flames of red and blue suddenly turned into three colors. Under the control of Zihou, Nether Fire and Suzaku Sacred Fire did not repel or attack each other, but worked harmoniously for Zihou!

With the addition of the Suzaku sacred fire, the ghost fire burned more vigorously as if it had been beaten with blood. The Suzaku Sacred Fire itself is a flame with fierce attributes, so with its addition, the heat quickly soared. The spirit fluid in the Wanxiang Baoding has been unwilling to fuse, like a well-behaved little pet, and fuse together obediently!

"Huh..." The problem was solved at the last minute, and Zihou let out a long breath. She thought with lingering fear, if it was a little later, all her previous efforts would be in vain!

It took more than an hour for Zihou to completely fuse the spirit fluid. The next step is to extract the pill from the fused spiritual liquid!

The process of extracting the elixir is relatively easier than the previous steps. As long as the amount of the elixir is controlled, there will be no problems. Therefore, Zihou only spent less than half an hour on this step.

Divine Consciousness pays attention to the rough and lifeless pill in the Wanxiang Baoding, Zihou can finally take a moment to rest. She wiped the dense sweat on her forehead, and then exhaled a long breath. The concentration of alchemy for several hours is huge for an alchemist. In particular, Zihou is refined by the peerless treasure pill at the pinnacle of good fortune, and the consumption of mental and physical strength is simply terrifying. Fortunately, Zihou has a strong temperament and a strong temperament. If you change to another alchemist, you won't be able to persist as early as the first step!

This is also one of the reasons why there has been no shortage of emperor alchemy masters from ancient times to the present world.

Zihou looked up at the sky, although her face was as pale as paper, but her heart was very satisfied. This is the farthest she has gone since she tried to refine the Peerless Pill!

Of course, satisfaction does not mean she can relax. As long as it does not reach the last step, it will always fail!

Zihou took a deep breath and once again immersed his mind in the world of alchemy.

Facing the unformed pill in the medicine cauldron, Zihou is a bit difficult.

The last step of the Peerless Pill is very different from other pill. Ordinary pill, even the last step of the emperor's pill, only the final modification and polishing of the pill is required. This is not much difficult, but the polishing process of the god-rank pill is relative to the emperor's pill. It is more complicated.

But the Peerless Pill is different. The last step not only requires complicated and repeated touch-ups, but more importantly, the pill must be enriched!

What is God? According to the records of the ancient fragmented scroll pill scrolls, anointing a **** is an act of giving the will of the alchemist into the pill. Only given the will of the pill alchemy master, can the peerless treasure pill come into being!

As for how to give gods, even the pill scroll only recorded one sentence: It can only be understood, it cannot be said!

"It can only be understood, but cannot be said..." Zihou pinched his chin and whispered this sentence recorded on the pill scroll several times. Inexplicably, the anxiety and panic in her heart seemed to be impacted by a clear current, and the whole person calmed down.

Zihou simply sat cross-legged in front of the medicine cauldron, closed his eyes and meditated.

The action of Zihou did not accidentally arouse everyone's surprise and confusion. They have never seen anyone stop to meditate cross-legged in the middle of alchemy!

What is the situation?

Almost everyone is at a loss, only those wise men on the podium who know this well know why Zihou did so.

According to legend, the ancestors of their Shenhuo Danzong in the ancient times would stop at the last moment when refining the peerless Baodan, either closing their eyes and meditating. In short, it is similar to the current situation of Zihou!

Could this girl have come to the most critical step?

If this is the case, success or failure is in one fell swoop!

The heart of the eight elders and suzerain Gu Qing was beating fiercely at this moment. His breathing suddenly became hurried. They have lived for tens of thousands of years. At their level, they should have neglected everything in this world, but they can't let go of this greatness and glory!

Time passed quietly like water. Unconsciously, the setting sun was sinking, and he was about to fall under the boundless horizon to the west. The sunset glow dyed the sky into gorgeous colors, like the colorful skirts of fairies. The returning spirit birds and flying beasts spread their wings in the red light of the setting sun, leaving a clear and long chirping slightly bleak echoing between the peaks and deep valleys.

The wind in the seventh heaven has brought the unique cold of the night. However, the evening breeze did not weaken the burning enthusiasm in everyone's hearts.

When the night fell completely, a silver awn pierced the heavy night and reflected in everyone's dark eyes.

But seeing the sky above the square, pure silver light descended from the sky, and eventually enveloped Zihou. At the foot of Zihou, a rule of heaven and earth runes appeared!

The nine exquisite small swords in the central circular area of ​​the ancient runes of the silver avenue are filled with the divine power of sea blue. The deep blue color is almost overflowing!

Nine Swords Peak Emperor!

Everyone's hearts trembled, and it was too late to say that Zihou already had such a cultivation level at a young age. What happened next made them even more shocked!

But seeing the big rune of the emperor's main realm was redrawn into another pattern by an invisible hand in a flash of silver light. The outline of the avenue rune hasn't changed much, but the avenue rune is a circle larger than before. The lines in the runes of the avenue are becoming more and more primitive, and the imprints of the runes are obscure and difficult to understand, and the strokes and strokes all show the profundity and lofty of the avenue!

In the central circular area of ​​the new avenue rune, nine delicate small swords filled with sea-blue power have also been replaced by the new nine small swords. The new small swords are more refined and lifelike, and one of them is full of supernatural power that is exactly the same silver as the Dao Rune!

Some people say that because the color of the gods is the same as the color of the runes of the avenue, the realm of the gods is the top of the avenue! We already know that there is a realm of emptiness, so this statement is not correct.

Anyway, Zihou has finally stepped into the realm of gods!

The sudden promotion is really unexpected. It can’t be said that such a thing as being promoted while refining alchemy has never happened, but it’s the first time to be promoted to the realm of the gods while refining alchemy, right?

"My God, the goddess has actually been promoted to the gods! It's amazing!"

"Unexpectedly, the goddess is not only brilliant in alchemy, but also a peerless genius in cultivation!"

"Yeah! How old is she? She is in her twenties, right? She is already a strong man in the realm of the gods at such a young age! This is definitely the first genius of the ancient gods!"

...

Although I didn't wait for the alchemy result of Zihou, this unexpected promotion was really exciting. This also gave them a great comfort to their slightly heavy hearts because of waiting!

For Zihou, promotion to the gods is definitely a surprise. Although she had already had the capital to attack the gods, she had been unable to break through that barrier. Unexpectedly, this time alchemy became an opportunity for promotion.

Zihou temporarily suppressed the inner surprise, Ning Xin calmly recalled what she had touched just now. Yes, just now because she realized something, she was promoted. But if she asked what she had realized, she couldn't tell for a while.

Zihou shook his head, cast aside distracting thoughts, and sank into a state of meditation again.

God-enriching...gives the alchemist's own will to the pill. So, what kind of will does the Peerless Baodan need?

As indestructible as steel?

As pure as the snow lotus on the top of the Tianshan Mountains?

As great as the sun that brings light and warmth to everything in the world?

Also, just as the world treats everything like a dog, fair and impartial!

Is this the will that Peerless Baodan needs?

The closed eyes of Zihou suddenly opened at this moment, and the sharp edge was so sharp, as if a cosmic galaxy was flowing through her eyes...

The second watch is in production... There is a beautiful girl who said that Ye Qingge is forty years old... OK, but this is normal! As for Nanzhu, because after Baodan there is a plot of nine tails. But the plot of Kyuubi is very fast (seems like spoilers,,,) (just love the net)
