Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 666: 666

Long Chen was doing the same thing as last time . He threw in all his medicinal powers at once . Did he think this was the same thing as last time?

Last time, he had only had seven medicinal powders . But now he was refining a fifth tier pill . There were over a hundred ingredients .

“Hmph, does this idiot think this is still a second tier pill?”

“Hehe, he has no choice but to be this stupid . There’s not enough time . He can only risk it all . ”

“Oh? Brother Guangyuan, don’t you also like to evaluate people? Why aren’t you saying anything today?”

The person called brother Guangyuan shook his head . “I don’t feel like it . My face hurts . ”

Last time Long Chen had refined the pills, he had been the one to criticize him the most . As a result, he had been the one to receive the most resounding slap .

A hundred and seven medicinal powders entered Long Chen’s pill furnace, along with his vast Spiritual Strength . His Spiritual Strength kept the powders separated . Although they grew hotter within the furnace, they didn’t begin to merge yet .

If he merged them now, this wouldn’t be refining pills but simply creating a furnace of paste . But seeing Long Chen was keeping all the ingredients separated from each other, every alchemist here was startled . Even the tower administrator’s expression changed .

The tower administrator and the three family heads were also able to do this . But just how old was Long San? He was a fraction of their age, but he already possessed such terrifying Spiritual Strength .

“This Long San really is a marvel . It’s just regretful he wasn’t raised by us from a young age . Then his accomplishments would be so high that we could only look up to him,” sighed Fang Mingyuan .

Such a brilliant pearl had been lost in the mountains for so many years . If he failed this time, it really would be regretful . After all, this competition only occurred once a century, and if he missed this chance, he would have no destiny with the Pill Emperor Competition ever again .

“Damn . Long San has merged the Yuxin Grass with the Small Fowl Flower . That will greatly reduce the pill’s quality . ” Fang Mingyuan’s expression suddenly changed .

Although Long San would still be able to refine the pill, this would cause the quality to drop . Let alone three rings, even one ring would be difficult .

Chai Gaoyang and Fang Mingyuan were both bitter . They blamed themselves for not paying enough attention to Long San and not treating the opening round as anything important . This one mistake had caused a complete failure .

Currently, everyone else had already finished refining . Ninety percent of the people had succeeded . There were also some who weren’t mentally strong enough to refine in such an environment and failed to meet the specifications .

“There’s still half an incense stick’s worth of time . Do you think Long San will make it?”

“Either way, I’m completely convinced . Even if he fails, just this terrifying Spiritual Strength is something I could never hope to achieve . It’s too abnormal . ” In the face of Long Chen’s Spiritual Strength, countless people had to admit defeat .

“There’s no ‘if ‘about it . He’ll definitely be eliminated . The merger of the Yuxin Grass and Small Fowl Flower insured that he would fail . He doesn’t even recognize the medicinal ingredients; he deserves to fail . What’s the point of just showing off?” There were also people who felt intense jealousy .

“Fuck off! If you had such terrifying soul energy, you could also show off . But if you don’t have that ability, then don’t randomly crap all over the place . ”

“Exactly . You don’t have any ability, and you don’t want to see anyone with more skill than you . Just how dark is your heart? In your entire life, you’ll only be able to be a weak Pill King,” sneered someone upon seeing his identity badge .

That person was enraged, but there were so many people against him . Furthermore, they were Pill Emperors, and he had no choice but to slip away .

He had no choice but to slip away, as he was worried others would remember him . If they made life hard on him in the future, he would be screwed .

“The pill fragrance has come out . ”

A burst of fragrance came from Long Chen’s furnace . That was what occurred when the moisture in the furnace was being forced out .

But Fang Chang and Chai Liehuo weren’t the slightest bit excited about that . Instead, they were sorrowful . Who would have expected the preliminaries would be so difficult this time? The medicinal ingredients and pill formulas Fang Chang had left for Long Chen had actually been useless .

Long Chen sensed the medicinal energy in the furnace was about to take the form of a pill and sighed inside . “Only now is the time to show off . For the Enlightenment Palace Star, for the sake of refining the dragon blood, I even had to drag down my own face . ”

BOOM!

Suddenly, Long Chen’s Spiritual Strength gushed forth, forming a thirty-meter whirlpool in the air above his furnace .

“What?” Everyone let out startled cries . Even the tower administrator stood up .

“This is… the Spiritual Pill Upgrade Art? He’s actually able to use it? How vast is his Spiritual Strength?!” Fang Mingyuan was filled with shock .

This Spiritual Pill Upgrade Art was something used when the pill was about to form . It could absorb the medicinal energy within the pill fragrance to increase the pill’s quality .

Essentially everyone present knew about this technique, but ninety-nine percent of them had never used it .

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to use it, but that they weren’t able to . They didn’t have enough soul energy . Of course, if a Pill Ancestor wanted to refine a fifth tier pill, then with their powerful Spiritual Strength, they would be able to use this technique .

But what Pill Ancestor would be so bored as to waste their precious Spiritual Strength to refine fifth tier pills? Then they really would have something wrong with their heads .

Pill Ancestors refined sixth tier pills, and that exhausted a great deal of Spiritual Strength . They didn’t have enough left over to use this Spiritual Pill Upgrade Art .

So this Spiritual Pill Upgrade Art was something everyone here knew how to use, but they would never use such a trash technique . The principles were very simple, but there was no practical value behind it .

The fact that Long Chen knew how to use this technique wasn’t shocking . It was that he had endless Spiritual Strength .

Even the many ancient pill seniors present had never seen someone with such vast Spiritual Strength .

Alchemists valued the quality of the Spiritual Strength more . In the registration, the only thing they tested was the quality . The amount of Spiritual Strength wasn’t so important . As long as you had enough to refine a furnace of pills, it was enough . You could just rest and recover your Spiritual Strength before the next furnace . So no one cared about it .

Well, it wasn’t necessarily that they didn’t care about it, but simply that no one had such vast Spiritual Strength . So Long Chen’s usage of this technique deeply shook them .

The huge whirlpool above Long Chen’s pill furnace rapidly sucked in all the surrounding air .

“I get it! This little fellow really has some skill . Perhaps he can pass . ” Fang Mingyuan suddenly slapped his leg .

Chai Gaoyang also nodded . “Now that hundreds of people have refined the Blood Soul Merging Pill, the medicinal fragrance in the air is extremely dense . This technique can absorb all that scattered medicinal energy for his pill . He might not be able to pass if it was just his own pill fragrance he was absorbing, but now? He really is brazen . ”

“Time’s up!” shouted the person in charge of watching the hourglass .

BOOM!

At practically the same time, a loud explosion rang out . That sound was like heavenly music in the ears of the Fang and Chai families .

Even with their calm, Chai Gaoyang and Fang Mingyuan’s hearts jumped a couple of times . As for Fang Chang and Chai Liehuo, their hearts practically rose out of their chests . Long San was an alchemy genius; no, they couldn’t use genius anymore . He had to be something beyond that .

His alchemy potential was limitless . If he had studied here from a young age, the two of them would probably have been so stifled that they would want to kill themselves .

Long Chen’s expression was ‘nervous’ as he slowly opened the lid . Nine medicinal pills lay inside his furnace . Eight of them were dark . But one shone with brilliant lines . There were three rings on it .

“Oh, I succeeded!” Long Chen pumped his arm . But inside he cursed . This act had been too tiring .

When using the Spiritual Pill Upgrade Art, he had poured all the medicinal energy into just one pill . Long Chen had essentially been watching as three rings appeared on the pill . If he had wanted to, he could have continued increasing the quality .

He had clearly known the result, but he had still had to act so nervous, and then act like he was incomparably relieved and excited . Long Chen was starting to admire himself more and more . He really was becoming more and more shameless .

“Hahaha, success!” Now that the preliminaries were over, Fang Chang and Chai Liehuo cheered and laughed . This sudden reversal made them go crazy with joy, and they had an urge to hug Long Chen and kiss him .

“The preliminaries are over! Those who passed, take your new badges so you can attend the elimination round . ” The tower administrator waved his hand, and there were people who immediately walked over, handing out badges . As for those who failed, they could only sadly leave .

“Little fellow, you really are not bad . ” The tower administrator actually praised Long Chen before leaving .

“Haha, Long San, let’s go celebrate!” Fang Chang pulled Long Chen directly out of the arena .

Long Chen had made a perfect reversal, his radiance completely outshining Huo Wufang who had refined a six-ring pill and finished his refinement first . Huo Wufang’s current expression was ugly, and he also brought his people away .

“Hahaha, brother Chai, let’s go celebrate with the children . ” Fang Mingyuan laughed and left with Chai Gaoyang . They didn’t even give a glance at the gloomy Huo Changsheng .

“Long San, is it? Just wait . You’re playing with fire . ”
