Chapter 2104 - 2105: Out of Tricks? (First Update)

"That’s absolutely impossible! There’s a mistake, there must be a mistake somewhere!"

The double-pupiled alchemist’s expression was unstable as he looked at Tao Hong on the high stage, unable to believe that he had been eliminated.

And Ling Feng, actually advanced?

The purple-robed alchemist from Jiuxiao Elixir Pavilion advancing was understandable, but did Ling Feng’s Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill have a higher quality than his own?

Tao Hong, however, was not angry about this. In fact, even he felt disbelief, but the truth was laid out before him.

Ling Feng, using an ordinary alchemy furnace and common purification techniques, really refined a Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill of better quality than the double-pupiled alchemist’s.

Taking a deep breath, Tao Hong slowly said, "The reason he advanced to the finals is because the Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill he refined reached five patterns in quality, while yours is merely four patterns."

"Wh... What?"

The double-pupiled alchemist’s eyelids twitched wildly; the basic requirement for forming a Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill is the condensation of three elixir patterns.

Ling Feng’s pill actually had five patterns?

With an ordinary Spiritual Artifact Level alchemy furnace?

How is that possible?

The double-pupiled alchemist’s face was full of disbelief, "This is impossible, Senior Tao, could you have made a mistake!"

"Insolence!"

Tao Hong slammed the table, his gaze turning cold, glaring at the double-pupiled alchemist, saying harshly, "I have not yet reached the point of having dim eyesight in old age. If you dare to make trouble again, do not blame me for being unkind!"

The double-pupiled alchemist’s face immediately turned ashen, collapsing on the ground like mud.

...

Ultimately, the ones advancing to the finals are Ling Feng and the purple-robed alchemist from Jiuxiao Elixir Pavilion, Guu Kun.

The rules for the finals are different from before, requiring competitors to provide their own elixir recipe for the final contest.

"Hmph, this time, Yuntian Commerce will surely lose!"

The Great Elder of Jiuxiao Elixir Pavilion, Yain Zhong, secretly chuckled coldly. Although Ling Feng advancing to the finals surprised him somewhat, in this last contest, the elixir’s grade is not restricted, and the ordinary Spiritual Artifact Level alchemy furnace Ling Feng uses will become his biggest weakness.

As for Yuntian Commerce’s side, Lio Yunyan and others were furrowing their brows deeply.

Most of the elixirs Ling Feng asked them to gather were only Third Rank or Fourth Rank; what high-level elixir recipe could Ling Feng possibly have?

If he doesn’t even have an elixir recipe, how can he compete?

As the saying goes, even the cleverest housewife can’t cook without rice. No matter how skilled Ling Feng is, can he fabricate an alchemy recipe out of thin air?

Thinking of this, Lio Yunyan’s forehead began to sweat slightly, secretly hoping that Ling Feng would continue to create miracles.

Little did they know, the finals’ rules were exactly what Ling Feng hoped for.

He really has plenty of high-level elixir recipes.

Although not being able to utilize Elemental Power somewhat affects his alchemy skills, since he can already condense the "Cangming Earth Core Flame," he can attempt to refine ordinary Eighth- and Ninth-level elixirs.

With the organizers providing herbs, it was the perfect opportunity to showcase his skills.

On the other side, Guu Kun had already selected the elixir he wanted to refine, writing down the necessary herbs for the staff to prepare, while Ling Feng was still considering which elixir recipe to choose.

After all, the Milo Continent is ultimately a bit different from the outside world; many spirit flowers and herbs common in the outside world are extraordinarily rare or even nonexistent in this space.

Finding a suitable elixir recipe is not easy.

Time ticked by, and Guu Kun from Jiuxiao Elixir Pavilion had already begun processing herbs, whereas Ling Feng remained deep in thought.

Lio Yunyan and others grew increasingly anxious, while a faintly contemptuous smile hung on Guu Kun’s lips.

It seemed Ling Feng had exhausted all his options.

Finally, Ling Feng wrote down the elixir recipe.

"Oh?"

On the high stage, Tao Hong looked at Ling Feng, a glimmer of brilliance flashing in his eyes.

Because Ling Feng managed to refine a five-pattern level Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill with an ordinary alchemy furnace, Tao Hong regarded Ling Feng even more highly.

According to the rules, Tao Hong was allowed to directly review the elixir recipes written by the two finalists.

Guu Kun chose an Eighth-level elixir with considerable refining difficulty, and if successful, it would essentially confirm his champion position.

And the elixir recipe written by Ling Feng...

Tao Hong meticulously examined it several times, astonishingly realizing that he had never seen this type of elixir before, not even a similar recipe.

This was an entirely unheard-of elixir!

...

Soon, the staff brought up the herbs Ling Feng had written.

Both sides began refining elixirs.
