Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

The world was silent. Li Guanqi and Meng Wanshu stood on a viewing pavilion atop the volcano.

Besides them, many alchemists from the Gu family were also present to observe the ceremony.

After all, this alchemy process was a rare opportunity.

It was almost the first time in the six regions that five top-tier eighth-grade alchemists were working together!

In the past, some highly difficult pill formulas required a maximum of three alchemists!

This was the known limit for the number of alchemists needed to cooperate for a pill.

The more people involved, the more complex the pill formula became, growing exponentially, and no errors in coordination were allowed during the refining process!

Many white-haired old men looked at Xiang Huaizhi with reverence.

Such figures were rare even among eighth-grade alchemists, let alone being able to watch these individuals refine pills together at close range.

Meng Wanshu didn't understand why, she just felt that these people were exaggerating.

But she didn't say anything about the next scene, because she also felt that it was not an exaggeration for these five people to refine this pill formula.

The breathing frequencies of the five people instantly reached a tacit balance!

Rumble!!!

The huge cyan pill furnace instantly burst into flames, and the heavenly fire within the furnace made a whirring sound.

The large pill furnace, engraved with mysterious patterns, had fire holes at the bottom.

At this time, flames erupted from the sixty-six fire holes, and the power of the three great heavenly fires clashed within the pill furnace!!

Suddenly, the earth shook and the mountains trembled.

The scorching magma erupted more than a hundred feet into the air, like a fire dragon shooting out.

The flowing red magma landed on the pill furnace, emitting scorching heat and thick green smoke.

But this power could not get close to the six people above.

Moreover, the entire interior of the volcano below was instantly enveloped by a mysterious flame wave, and the temperature soared!

An old seventh-grade alchemist beside Li Guanqi was covered in sweat, his turbid eyes staring at the pill furnace, muttering.

"Such a large pill furnace, and the warming process was completed in just six breaths!!"

"It's hard to imagine how terrifying the temperature inside this furnace is!"

Buzz!!!

The lid of the cyan pill furnace opened suddenly, and an aura of three-colored fire flickered within.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of spiritual plant phantoms with illusory light emerged.

Li Guanqi paid special attention to Xiang Huaizhi, whose condensation speed was extremely fast, almost simultaneously conjuring hundreds of spiritual herbs with the others.

Then, the alchemists saw an extremely crude scene...

All the phantom spiritual herbs were thrown into the pill furnace in an instant.

And Xiang Huaizhi was the one who took the lead in doing so.

The old man beside him's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "As expected of a top-tier eighth-grade alchemist, so confident in his control ability!"

As soon as the old man said this, many people nodded in agreement.

After all, you wouldn't dare to do this without some skill.

Throwing them all in together also meant that each alchemist needed to control thousands of flames at the same time to extract the essence from the medicinal materials.

Each spiritual plant required a different temperature and heat, and each spiritual herb needed to be wrapped in spatial power.

This was to ensure that the refined spiritual plant elixirs would not have any influence on each other.

The dazzling refining techniques caused hundreds of alchemists to gasp.

No one expected that Xiang Huaizhi, who was cooperating with everyone for the first time, would not make even the slightest mistake!

Meng Wanshu exclaimed: "That Senior Xiang's alchemy is so amazing, there hasn't been any mistake from beginning to end."

In fact, Guo Feng and the others still had some small mistakes in the process, but it didn't affect the final pill formation.

Li Guanqi's eyes flickered, and he murmured softly: "The reason why this is the case is probably because Senior Xiang's personal ability far exceeds everyone else!"

"Being able to perform so perfectly in the first joint alchemy session, there is only one possibility."

"His understanding and techniques of alchemy far surpass everyone else!"

Meng Wanshu nodded, and soon this simulation came to an end. They were not really extracting spiritual herbs, so the simulation was very fast.

Gu Changsheng opened his eyes with some surprise, breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice: "Fortunately, there were no major mistakes again."

"Let's adjust our mentality and take advantage of the situation to refine this pill."

"Regardless of whether there is only one set of materials, everyone should relax."

Xiang Huaizhi waved his hand and said softly: "It's just a little consumption, you guys adjust, and call me later."

After the words fell, the man got up, traversed a hundred feet of space, stepped on the railing of the pavilion, looked down at Li Guanqi, and then slowly squatted down.

He looked at Li Guanqi and said softly: "Is your brother called Cao Yan?"

Li Guanqi smiled and nodded.

Xiang Huaizhi thought for a while and asked: "What kind of person do you think he is?"

Li Guanqi didn't expect him to ask this, thought for a while, and then said: "He... should be a very stubborn person, very affectionate, usually speaks little, but is the craziest one to fight at critical moments."

Li Guanqi told the truth, because in his heart, Cao Yan had always been such a person.

Speaks little, but hits hard!

"Do you think he wants to refine pills?"

Li Guanqi hesitated, looked directly into Xiang Huaizhi's eyes, and said softly.

"He used to love refining pills very much, very, very much!"

"But now... he might want to improve his boxing skills more..."

Xiang Huaizhi didn't expect Li Guanqi to say this. He just suddenly wanted to ask this after seeing Li Guanqi today.

He himself doesn't refuse to accept disciples, because he feels that not everyone can take over his mantle.

But after hearing Li Guanqi say this, he became interested.

He crossed his arms and squatted on the railing, looking at Li Guanqi, and asked with interest: "Why?"

Li Guanqi shrugged and said softly: "I said, Lao San values affection."

"Because of his background, in his heart, the first important thing is me, and the second important thing is Ye Feng, who was taken away by Sha."

"Now that Ye Feng's whereabouts are unknown, he would rather practice boxing!"

Xiang Huaizhi smiled slightly and said softly: "I will personally look for him after this alchemy session is over, don't tell him."

Li Guanqi's eyes lit up, took a deep breath, and said with extreme seriousness: "Li Guanqi, thank you senior!"

Xiang Huaizhi waved his hand indifferently, got up and returned to his original position, closed his eyes and concentrated on adjusting his breath.

Meng Wanshu was also very happy about this. If Cao Yan could become a disciple of Xiang Huaizhi, at least his connections in the future would become extremely strong.

However, just when Li Guanqi was happy, his face suddenly changed!!!

He took out a golden natal jade slip from his back, and saw that the surface of the jade slip was filled with demonic energy, and the golden halo was flickering with weak light.

Meng Wanshu's eyes narrowed slightly: "This is..."

Before Li Guanqi could speak, a crisp sound of "crack" came, and a finger-length crack suddenly appeared on Ye Feng's natal jade slip!!

Li Guanqi's hands trembled slightly as he looked at this scene, and his whole heart sank.

Thank you all for your urging, Pigeon saw it and is very happy.

Also, let me say something from my heart. In the past year, I feel that my memory has become very poor. Almost every day when I wake up, I have to re-read what I wrote yesterday.

I can't remember many people and the storylines and details that have appeared... I have to spend a lot of time to find things that have appeared before.

I am also remembering, but there are still such situations, so please forgive me sometimes, it's not that I deliberately write something wrong.

I have been feeling a bottleneck recently. I am afraid that the story I write is not good, and I don't want to write some routine plots that I think are very stupid.

So recently people have been a little collapsed and very irritable, and can't write anything. I will adjust myself well recently, thank you for your inclusion.

New Year's Eve, 20 updates.
