Chapter 825: Chapter 339: Am I Really Not as Good as Dan Chenzi?_3
“The shame of the last match, this time I’ll return it all!”
As he roared inwardly, he whispered to the two people by his side, “During the pill refinement, give me your full assistance, there mustn’t be any slip-ups!”
The expressions of the two were somewhat nervous as they quickly nodded in agreement.
This scene was not only happening with Huang Hezi.
By the side of other pill refiners, there were generally two or three assistants to aid with the logistics of pill refinement.
Among the entire competition ground, only Luo Chen and Dan Yangzi were isolated, with no one beside them.
The countless cultivators outside naturally noticed this situation.
There was a great deal of discussion regarding it.
“It’s understandable that Senior Brother can’t ask for medicine disciples and fire workers to help; after all, it was restricted in the second round.”
“Why is Dan Chenzi also alone?”
“Didn’t the Tao Family offer him any support?”
“Or perhaps he’s the kind of person who’s accustomed to practicing pill refinement alone, always keeping to himself?”
“All possibilities, otherwise where would he have honed such divinely seamless pill technique!”
“But at this rate, I’m afraid his speed at pill refinement will fall behind the others!”
In the face of these discussions,
The nine competitors on the field turned a deaf ear.
All eyes were on The Elder of Tai Dan Court.
Time’s up!
“Second round, second match, refine First Order Spirit Feeding Pill, each person has ten sets of materials, when they’re used up the competition ends.”
“The pills must be at least Lower Grade. Any flawed products will be considered a failure!”
“Now, let the competition begin!”
At the command, everyone sprang into action.
Among them, the ones who made the most noise were clearly Dan Chenzi and Dan Yangzi.
Having no assistants, they both managed the semi-finished materials by themselves.
Thus, they were both quite audible.
Yet again, their operations astounded everyone.
“Such smooth handling of the ingredients, such adept pill technique!”
“Multitasking, dealing with three sets of ingredients at the same time, Dan Chenzi alone is worth three people!”
“Senior Brother is not to be outdone, his control over the fire is incredibly severe!”
Luo Chen had no time to pay attention to others.
While processing the materials, he also manipulated the Earth Fire to gradually scorch the pill tripod.
When the temperature reached a certain level, he began to feed the semi-finished materials into the pill tripod in succession.
This peculiar scene once again drew the attention of The Elder of Tai Dan Court.
“Is he going to refine the pill while processing the materials at the same time?”
“However, doing so would mean the control over the Earth Fire must be extremely precise. How can he be so confident?”
The Elder of Tai Dan Court frowned slightly.
But gradually, he saw the method behind it.
“Melting spirit into the flame, commanding the fire with spirit!”
“He’s not just relying on Earth Fire for pill refinement; he has already fused the external Earth Fire with Spirit Power, controlling it as naturally as his own limb.”
“This youth has not just profound proficiency in basic alchemy art, but his control over Pill Fire is also exceptionally profound.”
“So, it seems Dan Yangzi is going to fall behind.”
It appeared to be just as he had surmised.
If the speed of Dan Yangzi and Luo Chen was roughly the same before,
By the time they progressed to later stages of the refinement, Luo Chen, relying on his adept Melting Fire technique combined with multitasking, gradually began to pull ahead.
It was not that Dan Yangzi was inferior,
but rather, Luo Chen was habituated to using the Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire for pill refinement.
Now, being unable to use this powerful technique and having to rely on conventional methods,
he appeared less practiced.
But this was only slightly slower compared to Luo Chen; his speed was still above those with assistants!
“If nothing unexpected happens, the top three spots seem to be reserved for Dan Chenzi and Dan Yangzi.”
“Considering the five winners from the first three rounds, plus the promising Xuan Yunzi, it leaves only two openings for the others to compete for.”
For The Elder of Tai Dan Court, who had extensive experience in pill refinement,
the minor details were enough to discern the likely outcomes of the contest.
As expected,
with a faint Pill Fragrance emanating from Luo Chen’s Pill Tripod, many things became self-evident.
Huang Hezi, being the closest, naturally sensed the fragrance of the pills.
It did not come from his own Son Tripod but from Luo Chen, his formidable rival.
At that moment, his expression became somewhat vacant.
How could this be?
He had assistants, yet he still couldn’t surpass his opponent?
It was this moment of distraction that led to a grave mistake.
“Master Uncle, there seems to be a problem with the pill condensation!”
“We can’t suppress the medicinal power; Master Uncle, you must act quickly!”
Huang Hezi was abruptly alerted and instinctively cast out Spiritual Secrets.
However, it was already too late.
He silently watched in his Glass Sky Mini Tripod as the pitch-black substance, completely misshapen, turned into waste, and he felt a chill in his heart.
An inexplicable thought surfaced in his mind.
No wonder Tao Wen looked down on me.
Am I truly inferior to Dan Chenzi?
