Chapter 236: Fame, and Rank 2nd
hum!
The essence of Li Fire appeared right above Chen Xuan's head.
And it fell rapidly under the Fiery Black Cauldron controlled by Chen Xuan.
At this moment, even Chen Xuan, who was controlling the Fiery Black Cauldron and refining the Vajra Pill, was confused.
"What...what's going on?"
Chen Xuan was confused and looked extremely dazed.
Just now, he was busy controlling the Fiery Black Cauldron and refining the Great Power Vajra Pill.
He knew nothing about the fact that True Man Chihuo secretly used means to attract the essence of Lihuo.
Only at this moment, when the Essence of Fire appeared directly under the Fiery Black Cauldron he was controlling, did Chen Xuan suddenly come back to his senses.
"Is this...Skyfire?"
Chen Xuan was overjoyed.
His fingers quickly cast a spell towards the essence of fire.
The originally unruly Fire Spirit suddenly became docile.
Like a mini fire dragon, it rushed out from under the Fiery Cauldron and circled around Chen Xuan.
After a moment, under Chen Xuan's control, it disappeared out of thin air.
Seeing this, everyone at the scene was stunned.
"Who on earth is this person? How could he take away the essence of Lihuo so easily?"
"The Fire Essence is a ray of heavenly fire that Yao Ding Zhenren subdued. Although Yao Ding Zhenren has long since fallen, the Fire Essence has already gained a trace of intelligence. How could it choose this person?"
"It's incredible. Logically speaking, there should be mutual attraction between heavenly fires. Lingshan Zhenren has already activated the Purple Sun Heavenly Fire, and this ray of Li Fire essence should have fallen into his hands. In the end, why did it fall into the hands of this person?"
At this moment, everyone looked surprised.
The instigator, True Man Chihuo, had an extremely ugly expression on his face at this moment.
Especially when he saw Chen Xuan easily took the Essence of Fire with almost no effort, he became furious.
"Asshole, you are only in the late stage of foundation building, but you actually took away the essence of Lihuo? Boy, hand over the essence of Lihuo immediately."
True Man Chihuo cursed angrily.
When he was about to attack Chen Xuan, the Golden Butterfly Fairy flashed and quickly stopped the Red Fire True Man.
"Fellow Daoist Chihuo, what do you mean by this? The essence of the fire of separation exists in the Medicine Immortal Cauldron. It is originally a spiritual heavenly fire."
"Now, the Skyfire has chosen its own master, and everyone has witnessed it. Do you still want to interfere?"
Having said that, Fairy Golden Butterfly suddenly smiled coldly for some reason.
She glanced around with disdain, and then a loud voice rang out.
"My fellow Taoists, the people from the Divine Medicine Valley made it very clear not long ago that at every Alchemist Conference, there is a mysterious reward, which is the Heavenly Fire left behind by Master Yao Ding."
"Now, the Heavenly Fire has been successfully aroused, and it has chosen to recognize my Yuling Sect disciple Chen Xuan as its master."
“Haha, the people from the Divine Medicine Valley are actually planning to default on their debts, and are even willing to tear their faces off by attacking my Yuling Sect disciples.”
"I really don't know when did the Divine Medicine Valley become so shameless?"
There was silence.
Soon, countless angry curses were heard.
"Divine Medicine Valley is really shameless. Do you really think that we are rare in this crappy Alchemist Conference?"
"If the promised rewards are not delivered, what will happen to the reputation of the Divine Medicine Valley? I think that after this Alchemist Conference, there will probably be no more alchemists willing to participate in the Divine Medicine Valley Alchemist Conference."
"Isn't it? I thought that Shen Yao Valley, as one of the seven major immortal cultivation sects in Linhezhou, would definitely keep its word. I didn't expect that they like to go back on their words. It's really disgusting!"
Listening to the anger coming from the crowd, all the alchemists with demon bones behind them blushed.
Upon seeing this, Zishan, who was presiding over the Alchemist Conference, suddenly looked extremely ugly.
He glared at True Man Chihuo angrily, then quickly took out a sound transmission talisman, said a few words, and activated it casually.
After a moment, a fireball appeared in front of Master Zishan.
Master Zishan waved his hand and ignited the fireball in front of him, turning it into a sound transmission note.
After a moment, an old man's voice sounded from the sound transmission note.
“Everything has its destiny. Since he is a fellow Taoist from the Yuling Sect and has obtained Brother Yaoding’s Essence of Fire, then I will give it to him.”
Upon hearing this, True Man Zishan immediately turned his cold gaze towards True Man Chihuo.
“Chihuo, as an elder of the Jindan stage in my Divine Medicine Valley, please don’t bring shame to my Divine Medicine Valley.”
"Since the Fire Essence has automatically chosen the Taoist friend of the Yuling Sect, this is what he deserves."
Upon hearing this, True Man Chihuo's eyes flashed with a hint of struggle.
But facing Master Zishan, he did not dare to be presumptuous.
After nodding, he turned into a streak of light and disappeared quickly without saying a word.
As for Lingshan Zhenren, although he was unwilling, he could also see that it was an indisputable fact that the Essence of Lihuo fell into Chen Xuan's hands.
Even though True Man Chihuo, a powerful Jindan stage expert, showed up in person, he was unable to save everything.
As he was at the late stage of foundation building and had reached great perfection, he was naturally unable to change anything.
"This time, in order to activate the essence of Lihuo, Master Chihuo and I prepared for a long time."
"He even went so far as to refine a ray of Purple Sun Sky Fire at all costs to attract the Essence of the Fire of Separation."
“I didn’t expect that I would fail in the end!”
Having said that, Lingshan Zhenren looked at Chen Xuan unwillingly and continued to make the most of his time to refine the elixir.
However, this episode at this moment made the extremely angry cultivators at the scene feel a little better.
“It seems that there are still some people with broad vision in the Divine Medicine Valley.”
"Isn't it? Once something is said, it can be spilled. If the Divine Medicine Valley goes back on its word this time, it will be despised even if it is still one of the seven major sects of immortal cultivators in Linhezhou."
"That's true. However, I really envy Fellow Daoist Chen from the Yuling Sect. I really don't know why that ray of fire essence chose him."
Under the curious and envious gazes of countless people, Chen Xuan controlled the Fiery Black Cauldron and carefully refined the Great Power Vajra Pill.
Just waiting for time, more than an hour passed, and a strong medicinal fragrance kept wafting from the Fiery Cauldron that Chen Xuan was activating.
At the same time, seven-colored rays of light also appeared from outside the Fiery Black Cauldron.
Seeing this, all the powerful people watching the ceremony showed a look of horror.
"Seven-colored rays of light? This is a sign that the top-grade elixir has been successfully refined."
“No wonder the Fire Essence chose Chen Xiaoyou from the Yuling Sect. It turns out that he is so young, yet he can actually refine top-grade elixirs.”
"If I remember correctly, Mr. Chen chose a pill with a difficulty of ten. Even so, he was able to refine a top-grade pill. It seems that Mr. Chen's alchemy skills are indeed extraordinary."
Countless exclamations rang out from the scene.
However, Chen Xuan controlled the Fiery Black Cauldron with a calm look.
After just a cup of tea, the tightly closed lid of the Fiery Black Cauldron suddenly trembled violently.
A furnace of twelve powerful Vajra Pills swam out from the flaming cauldron at a rapid speed.
Chen Xuan, who was well prepared, pointed his finger in the air, and the newly-made Vajra Pill was put into the jade bottle.
Almost at the same time, Lingshan Zhenren also successfully put the elixir he had refined into the jade bottle.
"Haha, it seems that there are many geniuses in this Alchemist Conference."
"Two fellow Taoists actually refined pills with a difficulty of ten at almost the same time."
"If that's the case, please hand in the pills you made, fellow Taoists, so that we can have them judged by the jury."
The resonant voice of Master Zishan rang out.
Everyone's eyes fell on Chen Xuan and Lingshan Zhenren at the same time.
Without any hesitation, Lingshan Zhenren threw the jade bottle in his hand to Zishan Zhenren.
Chen Xuan hesitated for a moment before throwing the jade bottle away.
Wow!
With a casual move of his hand, Master Zishan's jade bottles fell into his hands at the same time.
True Man Zishan did not open the jade bottle. He swept his mind over the jade bottle thrown by Chen Xuan and immediately showed a look of surprise.
Soon, he looked at Chen Xuan with a grateful smile, and then handed the pills they had refined to the tasting team behind him.
The members of these tasting groups are all alchemists in the Jindan stage.
Moreover, there are many people who are not alchemists from the Divine Medicine Valley.
When they opened the jade bottles containing the elixirs of Chen Xuan and Lingshan Zhenren, they all revealed expressions of shock that could not be concealed.
"The two of them chose pills with a difficulty of 10, and they were all powerful diamond pills. This Alchemist Conference is really full of geniuses."
"Isn't it? Fellow Daoist Lingshan and Fellow Daoist Chen have both refined top-grade elixirs."
"Even so, there has to be a difference between Lingshan Zhenren and Fellow Daoist Chen."
When everyone talked about this, they all looked embarrassed.
The top-grade elixirs refined by Chen Xuan and Lingshan Zhenren are almost on par in terms of quality.
The only difference is that Chen Xuan’s jade bottle contains ten top-grade pills.
Lingshan's jade bottle contained twelve top-grade medicinal pills.
After discussing for a long time, the alchemists in the tasting group made the final decision: Lingshan Zhenren won with his top-grade Vajra Pills with twelve pills in a furnace.
Chen Xuan had expected this result.
After all, he secretly kept the two powerful Vajra Pills.
About an hour later, the alchemy session of the Alchemist Conference finally ended.
More than a hundred alchemists quickly ranked themselves according to the difficulty of refining the pills and the quality of the pills.
Among them, the alchemists in Shen Yao Valley have obviously much higher alchemy skills than other alchemists.
This is enough to prove that the alchemy skills of the Divine Medicine Valley are definitely the best in the world of immortal cultivation in Linhe Prefecture.
As for Chen Xuan, although he won the second place in this Alchemist Conference, everyone knew that he was the biggest dark horse in this Alchemist Conference.
"Haha, this Alchemist Conference has come to an end. I hereby declare that Lingshan Zhenren has won the first place in this Alchemist Conference. Yuling Sect's Chen Xuan has won the second place in this Alchemist Conference..."
The resonant voice of Master Zishan rang out.
All excited eyes turned towards Lingshan.
Even Fairy Lingxi cast a boastful look at Chen Xuan.
Only Chen Xuan himself stood there with a calm look.
It seemed as if these honors had no effect on his state of mind.
"Nephew Chen, you are quite good. I am still worried that after you took the Essence of Fire, you also took the first place in this Alchemist Conference. It might not end well."
The happy voice of the Golden Butterfly Fairy suddenly sounded in Chen Xuan's ears.
Chen Xuan looked surprised, and soon he looked at the place where the Golden Butterfly Fairy was and his lips moved slightly.
"Uncle-master, it is a great opportunity given by God that I suddenly obtained the Essence of Fire. If I also won the first place in this Alchemist Conference, it would be a bit too much." Chen Xuan said with a smile.
It’s just empty fame, give it to others!
As for the benefits, take them yourself!
Making a fortune quietly is the long-term strategy.
Although Chen Xuan is a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he understands this principle very well.
When Fairy Golden Butterfly heard this, a strange smile flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Nephew Chen, you are so modest. If I were to say that I am certain that the wisp of the essence of the fire of separation should have belonged to you, what would you say?"
