Chapter 53 - Entering the Fifth Level in a Day!
Chapter 53: Entering the Fifth Level in a Day!
At this moment, in the Myriad Medicine Pavilion, Shen Ran had already entered the fourth level.
Upon entering, a cold voice from the Pavilion could be heard.
It told him the rules of the assessment quickly.
This time, he had to refine 10 Tier 3 elixirs.
“But there’s no time limit for the assessment.”
From this, it could be seen how difficult it was to refine a Tier 3 elixir!
A Tier 3 elixir was a panacea that was effective for those at the Illumination Realm.
Currently, other than the elders of the sect, only Zhao Honglian and a few other disciples could refine Tier 3 elixirs!
These people were essentially accepted as disciples by the Elder of the Pavilion.
In terms of the benefits they received, they were on an equal level as him!
If Shen Ran could successfully refine a Tier 3 elixir and pass the fourth level of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion, he would probably be recruited into the Pavilion!
After all, there were not many disciples with high alchemy talent in the Empyrean Sword Sect.
To Shen Ran, it was appropriate to show his talent and attract the attention of the Empyrean Sword Sect.
This was not a bad thing.
More importantly, when he entered the Myriad Medicine Pavilion to study the process of alchemy, he would learn alchemy techniques.
In the future, he would refine elixirs himself.
Even if he did not use them, he could reward his subordinates with them.
He pondered over this.
Then he calmed himself down and scanned the large quantities of spiritual herbs in front of him with his divine sense.
Prepare for the fourth level assessment!
With the 10,000-year-old spiritual ginseng as a guide, I can add 153 Tier 3 spiritual herbs such as Heaven and Earth Jade Essence, Mother Earth Qi, and so on…
The difficulty of refining a Tier 3 elixir was undoubtedly more complicated than a Tier 2 elixir.
Even the most ordinary Spirit Recovery Pill that could only help one recover spiritual energy would require dozens of spiritual herbs to refine!
So an elixir that could allow Illumination Realm cultivators to break through would require more than 150 types of spiritual herbs!
Ordinary disciples would undoubtedly be jittery and very prudent when they encountered such an assessment.
Yet…
To Shen Ran, who had the Ancient Immortal Eyes and could see through the essence of things, a Tier 3 pill only required a little more difficulty!
Besides, he also had a Wood Spirit Body that connected intimately with all trees.
This physique was much stronger than Zhao Honglian’s Myriad Wood Body.
It was the top aptitude that many alchemists dreamed of!
Less than a day later.
With his powerful divine sense and boundless spiritual energy, Shen Ran refined 10 Tier 3 elixirs.
“Buzz buzz buzz!”
After the buzzing, a voice could be heard.
“The assessment is completed. Passed!”
Immediately, his vision flipped and he arrived at the fifth level of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion!
…
The disciples who had been waiting in the Myriad Medicine Pavilion for the entire day were preparing to leave.
However, at this moment, someone suddenly discovered that Shen Ran’s name on the stone tower had advanced to the top 10!
The disciple rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
After confirming that he was not seeing things, he exclaimed.
“Everyone, look at the rankings on the stone tower!
Shen Ran is ranked tenth!”
Seeing this result, countless people exclaimed in shock.
“It’s only been a day, but that Shen Ran has passed the fourth-level test and entered the fifth level?!”
“Hiss, it took him only a day. What kind of monster is he!”
“Thinking back to when I was in the third level of the assessment, I felt my blood freeze when I faced those densely packed spiritual herbs.”
“As expected, the difference between humans is greater than that between a human and a swine!”
…
Some disciples lost their voices crying out in surprise.
Some disciples looked bitter.
They recalled how their blood froze when they were stumped during the assessments at the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.
Likewise, there were also disciples from the Eighth Summit cheering.
“Senior Brother Shen Ran is simply a role model for our generation!”
“The last time I saw Senior Brother Shen Ran kill Hong Jing, I knew that he would definitely have amazing achievements!”
“I wonder which one of them is more talented in alchemy!”
…
…
At this moment, Shen Ran, who had entered the fifth level, was learning the rules of this level.
The fifth level no longer stipulated the number of elixirs like before.
Instead, the candidate was allowed to refine whatever he wanted!
The Myriad Medicine Pavilion would evaluate the elixirs refined by the candidates.
In short, the higher the quality of the elixir, the easier it was to pass the assessment!
Even someone as strong as Zhao Honglian, who was reputed to be as talented as the second-generation Sect Master of the Empyrean Sect, was stuck at the fifth level of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.
She could not pass the assessment to enter the sixth level!
Not only was the assessment method of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion difficult, there were also Tier 4 elixirs that were difficult to refine!
Tier 4 elixirs were panaceas for Marquis Realm cultivators.
Compared to the Tier 3 elixirs Shen Ran had refined previously, these were a hundred times more difficult to refine!
He sat cross-legged and looked at the familiar furnace in front of him. He reached out and gently pressed his palm on it.
He looked at the hundreds of thousands of spiritual herbs and plants that were flickering with colorful spiritual lights in front of him, and his gaze finally revealed a trace of seriousness!
However, the seriousness quickly dissipated, and his eyes revealed determination!
His hands instantly fluttered in the air as he placed various spiritual herbs in the furnace to refine.
Once!
Ten times!
A hundred times!
This was the most difficult assessment he had ever done!
Gradually, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Even someone as strong as him, with the Immortal Eyes and the Wood Spirit Body, felt a little weak after refining so many elixirs.
As he entered a trance-like state, his hands kept shuttling between the elixir furnace and hundreds of thousands of spiritual herbs.
Finally, he had successfully refined a furnace of Tier 4 elixirs!
A bright light soared into the sky from the elixir furnace and illuminated the entire assessment space!
“Buzz!”
