209: The number one alchemist!

Chapter 209: The Number One Alchemist!

The Alchemist competition was in full swing.

Among them, three figures were the most captivating and eye-catching.

They were Soul Void Son of the Soul Clan, Wan Huo Elder of the Medicine Clan, and an Alchemist known as Old Man Shennong.

Soul Void Son controlled a wisp of black flame, possessing an extraordinary aura, as if it could devour all things; even a glance seemed to invite immediate consumption.

None of the people present were ordinary; they instantly recognized that this flame was related to the Void Swallowing Flame, ranked second.

Wan Huo Elder used the Turtle Spirit Earth Flame, which, although also an Otherworldly Flame, was lower in rank.

Seeing Soul Void Son unleash the Void Swallowing Flame, Wan Huo Elder’s expression turned dark and somewhat unsightly.

Originally, Wan Huo Elder possessed a higher-ranked Otherworldly Flame, the Nine Serene Wind Flame, but unfortunately, it went missing after the clansmen he was with died in the Tian Tomb.

Old Man Shennong refused to be outdone, unleashing a wisp of green flame that resembled a liquid. Unlike the terrifying might of other flames, this green flame exuded a strong sense of life.

This was the Flame of Life, ranked fifth.

Feeling the vibrant vitality, Soul Cang raised his eyes to observe it, then closed his eyes again.

Everyone first refined the medicinal ingredients, extracting all their essence cleanly, then put them into the medicine cauldron. Flames roared as the pill refining began.

At this moment, Soul Void Son changed his hand seals and shouted, “Power of Heaven and Earth, obey my command!”

Suddenly, strong winds swept across the world, and boundless Heaven and Earth energy surged towards the medicine cauldron in front of Soul Void Son, completely swallowed by the suction force erupting from within it.

On the observation platform, Medicine Pill’s expression was solemn: “Refining pills by gathering the Power of Heaven and Earth… this technique… he intends to refine a Nine-Rank Mysterious Pill!”

Alchemists are divided into nine ranks, with the first rank being the lowest and the ninth rank the highest. Ninth-rank Alchemist Grandmasters are further divided into three levels: Treasure Pill Grandmaster, Profound Pill Grandmaster, and emperor pill Grandmaster!

Usually, being able to refine a Treasure Pill is enough for an Alchemist to be considered a top-tier expert on the continent.

As for Alchemists capable of refining Profound Pills, such individuals are extremely rare in the entire Dou Qi Continent’s Alchemist world.

Regarding the higher level, emperor pill Grandmasters, no one on the continent has been able to reach that level for nearly a thousand years.

If Soul Void Son refines a Profound Pill today, it is likely that the title of the number one Alchemist will be snatched by him.

Medicine Pill was in a very bad mood. Anyone could take this title, but it absolutely could not be someone from the Soul Clan.

As a fellow member of the Medicine Clan, Wan Huo Elder clearly understood the implications of Soul Void Son’s actions.

Wan Huo Elder frowned, changed his hand seals, and loudly shouted, “Power of Heaven and Earth, condense!”

He, too, wanted to refine a Profound Pill!

“Haha, since both of you are being so extravagant, this old man can’t fall behind either!” Beside him, Old Man Shennong, unwilling to be outdone, waved his sleeve, and the Power of Heaven and Earth surged forth.

In an instant, the Power of Heaven and Earth in this area was divided into three, becoming chaotic.

Three suction forces erupted from the medicine cauldrons in front of Soul Void Son, Wan Huo Elder, and Old Man Shennong, each vying with the others for the Power of Heaven and Earth.

On the square.

Many Alchemists gazed at the energy storm in the sky, hearing the rumbling thunder within the storm, their hearts filled with shock.

The Nine-Rank Mysterious Pill, second only to the emperor pill and the Golden Pill, was already among the top three pill grades in the path of alchemy on the continent.

It was usually difficult to witness the refining of a Treasure Pill, so seeing three Profound Pills being refined simultaneously today, the impact was unimaginable.

Medicine Pill frowned as he looked at Wan Huo Elder, sighing inwardly.

He wasn’t sure about the strength of the other two, but he was very clear about Wan Huo Elder’s alchemy skill.

The success rate for refining a Nine-Rank Mysterious Pill was probably less than twenty percent.

Absorbing the Power of Heaven and Earth was not a short-term affair; on the contrary, it was a very lengthy process.

All eyes were on the three pill refiners, and no one noticed that outside the Medicine World, a wisp of black flame, like a drop of ink in a clear pool, silently spread, gradually covering the entire Medicine World.

Soul Cang’s eyes were closed, his right index finger gently tapping on his knee, the speed gradually increasing.

The actions of the Void Swallowing Flame outside could not escape Soul Cang’s perception.

Sending a message to Xiao Xuan now to inform the Ancient Clan was still possible, but with Soul Emperor’s profound cunning, if he knew he had come to the Medicine Clan, would he turn the tables?

Soul Cang was not confident. He worried that if he attracted the Ancient and Lei Clans, they would find nothing, and instead, the Soul Clan would seize the opportunity to take their camel-colored ancient emperor jade.

Such things were not unheard of.

Yao Chen noticed the anomaly, turned his head, his gaze sweeping over Soul Cang’s gently tapping finger, and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Soul Cang shook his head slightly.

After much thought, Soul Cang decided to wait.

He was confident in breaking the Void Swallowing Flame’s sealing method, preventing the Medicine Clan from experiencing the same situation as the Yan Clan before.

If Soul Emperor appeared, he could still notify them in time.

Because Soul Cang remembered very clearly that the Medicine Clan also had its own means: a trace of residual thought left by the Medicine Clan’s Dou Di.

Although Yao Chen was puzzled, he did not press further, because several days had passed in the pill refining, and the results were about to be revealed.

The birth of a Profound Pill was a matter worthy of attention.

At this moment, Yao Chen frowned: “Is the Power of Heaven and Earth not enough?”

Refining three Profound Pills at once, the Power of Heaven and Earth was dispersed, seemingly insufficient to support the birth of three Profound Pills.

Wan Huo Elder noticed this situation, and instead of feeling sad, he felt a sense of relief in his heart, a faint smile playing on his lips: “If the Power of Heaven and Earth isn’t enough, none of us three will be able to refine a Nine-Rank Mysterious Pill.”

A hint of regret flashed across Old Man Shennong’s brow. He felt that his state of alchemy this time was exceptionally good, perhaps his most confident attempt at refining a Profound Pill recently.

Unfortunately, he hadn’t expected the Power of Heaven and Earth to be insufficient.

Old Man Shennong shook his head and sighed.

At this moment, Soul Void Son sneered, “That may not be true.”

Facing the gazes cast by the two, Soul Void Son’s hand seals suddenly changed, and he struck out with a palm, landing it on the pill cauldron.

Boom! Boom!

The next second, two black flames surged out from within, transforming into swirling tornadoes, descending towards the pill cauldrons in front of Wan Huo Elder and Old Man Shennong.

Wan Huo Elder and Old Man Shennong’s expressions immediately changed. A large amount of Heaven and Earth energy was being continuously absorbed by Soul Void Son and poured into his pill.

“Soul Void Son, how dare you!” Wan Huo Elder’s expression darkened. He hadn’t expected Soul Void Son to be so audacious, driving the Turtle Spirit Earth Flame to collide with the black flame.

On the other side, Old Man Shennong’s expression was displeased, and the Flame of Life also attacked Soul Void Son.

However, Soul Void Son faced the two’s attacks without the slightest panic, a strange smile even appearing at the corner of his mouth.

The two’s Otherworldly Flame attacks collided with the black flame, but not only did they fail to destroy it, they were instead swallowed by the black flame, which then grew a few points stronger.

The Void Swallowing Flame was terrifying!

Everyone present felt a shock in their hearts, a hint of horror appearing in their eyes.

Although they knew the Void Swallowing Flame was ranked second and there must be a reason for it, they hadn’t truly understood its strength until they witnessed it firsthand.

Now, seeing it with their own eyes, a storm surged in everyone’s hearts.

Two Otherworldly Flames attacking together were unable to shake the Void Swallowing Flame in the slightest.

More importantly, the Void Swallowing Flame in Soul Void Son’s hand was not even its true body, yet it was so terrifying. How strong would the true body of the Void Swallowing Flame be?

Wan Huo Elder and Old Man Shennong were stunned for a moment. Coming back to their senses, they were unwilling to give up and continued to attack, but after several attempts, the situation remained the same.

For a time, both felt a sense of powerlessness.

Soul Void Son laughed heartily: “Haha, from now on, I, Soul Void Son, will be the undisputed number one Alchemist in the Dou Qi Continent’s Alchemist world!”

Countless Heaven and Earth energies were guided by him and merged into the pill.

Clang!

The pill cauldron suddenly shook, a bell-like sound reverberated and spread, accompanied by a rich medicinal fragrance rising. In the sky, clouds gathered, pill thunder rumbled, and a rain fell.

“Pill rain descends, Profound Pill emerges!”
