“Four of you, please come in.”

“Haha, Chief Yaodan is quite straightforward. I’ve heard for a long time that the Pharmacopoeia is a gathering of the top alchemists in the Douqi Continent. I came here today to ask for your advice! My Hun clan is slightly interested in the title of the number one alchemist in this continent, so I’d like to take it back.” As soon as Yaodan finished speaking, Hunxuzi’s figure appeared in the air in the venue like a ghost, and there was a bit of arrogance in his plain laughter.

“Hmph, the Medicine Clan is a clan that refines medicine. Perhaps it would be better for this title to remain with the Medicine Clan!” Elder Wanhuo snorted coldly, his figure flashed, and he also appeared in mid-air, staring at Hunxuzi without backing down.

As soon as Elder Wanhuo appeared, he attracted bursts of cheers from around him. This was the home of the Medicine Clan. Naturally, they were not happy to see people from the Soul Clan take away this extremely glorious sign for them. .

“Although I don’t have much desire for such false reputation, it would be a great shame for alchemists like me if the title of the number one alchemist on the continent fell on you.” Old man Shennong stepped on the void, and shook the crutch in his hand that looked like it was woven with herbs, causing the jade bottles on it to collide with each other, making crisp sounds. He was also floating in the sky, and his tone was neither salty nor light, but it was obvious that he was extremely dislike for Hunxuzi. After all, the reputation of the Hun clan in the hearts of alchemists was really bad.

“Elder Wanhuo, Hunxuzi, and Elder Shennong are definitely the giants in the current medicine refining world. This competition will be worth watching!”

Looking at the three people in the sky, there was a sudden commotion in the square. The eyes of countless alchemists were filled with enthusiasm. The level reached by the three people above was their lifelong pursuit!

Hunxuzi glanced at Elder Wanhuo and Old Man Shennong, smiled slightly, and put his hands behind his back, revealing the bearing of a master. Not to mention his character, Hunxuzi’s attainments in alchemy are indeed daunting.

Seeing the three people gathered, Xiao Yan also flashed forward. Xiao Miao’s eyes focused slightly, and the next highlight was officially about to begin.

Chapter 284: Yao Ling’s Thoughts, Hard to Explain

Hunxuzi smiled faintly, without any anger on his face, and seemed to be very well-mannered. However, his eyes looking at the latter were cold and indifferent, with a hint of murderous intent.

Hunxuzi didn’t say any more nonsense. He waved his sleeves and black flames burst out from his body like an overwhelming force. Then, in the sky in front of him, they condensed into a huge black fire cauldron that was a hundred feet in size. Faintly, there was a strange devouring power coming from the fire cauldron.

“Void Swallowing Flame?”

Looking at the fire cauldron formed by black flames, Xiao Yan, Elder Wanhuo, and Old Man Shennong all stared at each other and said in a deep voice.

“I didn’t expect that this kind of strange fire would fall into the hands of the Soul Clan.” Old man Shennong frowned, looking at the black fire cauldron with a solemn look in his eyes. As a senior in the alchemy world, he naturally knew the power of the Void Devouring Flame very well.

“Summon all the strange fire in your bodies. My Void Devouring Flame is extremely coveting their taste.” Hunxuzi said with a smile as he looked at Xiao Yan and the other two.

“It’s just a sub-fire of the Void Devouring Flame, how can it be so domineering?” Xiao Yan chuckled. Although the Void Devouring Flame in Hunxuzi’s body gave him the feeling that it was much stronger than that of the Soul Palace Master, it had not reached the terrifying level of a real Devouring Flame. So it was obvious that the Void Devouring Flame in this guy’s hand was just a sub-fire.

Hearing this, Hunxuzi narrowed his eyes slightly. He had not expected Xiao Yan to reveal the truth in one sentence. However, he sneered immediately. Xiao Yan could recognize his Void Swallowing Flame, but he did not know that his Void Swallowing Flame was not an ordinary fire.

The Void Devouring Flame is extremely mysterious, and only a very small number of people know about it. Even the sub-fire of the Void Devouring Flame is divided into levels. Above the many ordinary sub-fires, there are two kinds of strange sub-fires, known as the sub-fires of heaven and earth. The Void Devouring Flame in his hand is the sub-fire of earth among them!

This so-called Earth Fire, from a certain level, can be regarded as the juvenile form of the Void Devouring Flame. Its power is far beyond the reach of the ordinary Earth Fire in the hands of the Soul Palace Master.

However, although this kind of earth fire is also quite powerful, if its mother body is seriously damaged, the many fires connected to it will still automatically disperse, turn into the original power, and merge into the mother body.

This kind of thing is quite secretive. Even Yao Lao and Xiao Yan have never heard of it. Therefore, he could only recognize the strange fire in Hunxuzi’s hand, which was just a seed fire. He did not recognize that this was the boss among the seed fires, the Earth Seed Fire. However, even if he recognized it, he would not be too moved. The Pure Lotus Demon Fire in his body had also mutated after the fusion of many strange fires. Not to mention that these Void Devouring Flames were just seed fires, even if the real Void Devouring Flames came, Xiao Yan would not be too afraid.

“If you want to swallow our strange fire, it depends on whether you have the ability to do so.”

Elder Wanhuo snorted coldly, and then waved his sleeves, and a strong wind with a light black color suddenly roared out from his sleeves. These strong winds were squirming rapidly in the air, but if you look carefully, you will see that I found that this was not a strong wind, but a strange flame!

“Nine Nether Wind Flame.”

Xiao Yan looked at the wild wind and flames summoned by Elder Wanhuo with a little surprise. This was not the first time he had seen the Nine Nether Wind Flame. He remembered that when he met Yao Xingji, he was carrying this kind of strange fire. But looking at its current appearance, it seemed that this strange fire had been taken back again.

“Haha, old man Wanhuo, your Nine Nether Wind Flame is becoming more and more perfect.” Seeing Elder Wanhuo summoning the strange fire, the old man Shennong also laughed, and lightly tapped the air with the herbal cane in his hand, and said with a smile: “In this case, then I will also show my ugliness.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the medicinal stick in his hand suddenly ignited without fire. A wisp of green flame like liquid slowly rose up, and finally swelled up with the wind. In the sea of ​​green liquid fire, layers of mist rose up, and in the rising mist, countless kinds of exotic medicinal herbs slowly grew up, diffusing a moving breath of life.

“Is this the Flame of Living Beings, which ranks fifth on the Strange Fire List?”

Looking at the vibrant vitality that was spreading, a strange look flashed across Xiao Yan’s eyes.

The Flame of Living Beings ranks fifth on the list of strange fires. This kind of strange fire is extremely strange, because most strange fires, although in different forms, are filled with destructive power after all. However, this Flame of Living Beings does not show strong destructive power. It is famous for the life force it is filled with. It is said that this kind of strange fire will spread, as long as the seeds of medicinal materials are thrown into it, the seeds will germinate and grow quickly. In other words, with this kind of strange fire, you basically don’t have to worry about searching for medicinal materials. As long as you have enough seeds, you can get the desired medicinal materials continuously. It is truly magical.

Moreover, this flame of life is also known as the fire of longevity. Those who obtain it will have a lifespan that is no less than those magical beasts that are famous for their longevity. The only drawback is that this fire is not good at fighting, and its increase in combat power is not very strong.

Xiao Yan had also heard of the name of the Flame of Life, but this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes. The fascinating life force made people feel relaxed and happy just by smelling it.

Hunxuzi’s eyes were fixed on the Flame of Life in old man Shennong’s hand. A hint of greed flashed across his eyes. In this world, all things have an end to their lifespan. If one could obtain the Flame of Life, he would be able to greatly extend his lifespan. This temptation was extremely strong even for a person like him.

“It’s actually the flame of life. Old man Shennong, you are so blessed.” Old man Wanhuo looked envious and laughed.

If this creature’s flame is formed, it will have a very high spiritual intelligence. Usually it will not appear in the form of fire, but will transform into various medicinal materials, and then quietly take root in the soil. At that time, even if you walked by it, you would not be able to identify it. Only those with great luck could find it out of the ground.

“Haha, it’s just luck. I got it accidentally while searching for medicinal herbs.” Old man Shennong stroked his beard and said with a smile. For someone like him who didn’t like fighting with others, being able to obtain this kind of strange fire was truly the happiest thing.

“I heard that young friend Xiao Yan once subdued the legendary Pure Lotus Demon Fire. I wonder if this is true or not?” Old man Shennong’s gaze suddenly turned to Xiao Yan, who was looking at the green sea of ​​fire above his head with a strange expression not far away, and said with a smile.

“Haha, just like my predecessor, it’s just luck.”

Xiao Yan smiled slightly, flames flashed on his shoulders, and Xiao Yi flashed out. Then he glanced at the other three balls of strange fire in the sky with a hint of disdain. Here, only it could appear in this form.

“This is… the spirit of strange fire?!”

Seeing Xiao Yi on Xiao Yan’s shoulder, the expressions of several people in the sky suddenly changed slightly, and then their eyes became unusually solemn. They could feel an intelligence no less than that of humans from Xiao Yi. As an existence almost at the top of the alchemy world in the Douqi Continent, they naturally understood what a strange fire spirit symbolized to an alchemist. The legendary strange fire physique would make the strange fire reach the most perfect level in its hands.

That level is incomparable even for those of them whose soul power has reached the great perfection of the heavenly realm!

Although the strange fire in their hands was very good, it was far from the level of condensing the spirit of the strange fire.

“My Soul Clan has been eyeing the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire for so many years, but we never expected that it would end up in the hands of this brat. But it doesn’t matter, we will get these things back sooner or later.” Hunxuzi’s eyes flickered, with a chill in his eyes.

“Young friend Xiao Yan is truly blessed. I once tried to subdue the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, but was almost trapped in the Demonic Fire’s space,” old man Shennong said with a smile, stroking his beard.

Xiao Yan smiled. Having experienced the Demon Fire Space, he naturally understood how difficult it was to subdue the Pure Lotus Demon Fire. If he had not carried the residual image of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint, he would have had no choice but to escape early. Although the old man Shennong’s alchemy skills were extraordinary, he could not rely on any alchemy skills to subdue the Pure Lotus Demon Fire.

“If the four of you are fully prepared, then please start refining the elixir.”

Yao Dan, who was in the first place, withdrew his envious gaze from Xiao Yi and said loudly.

Hearing this, Xiao Yan also smiled faintly. Xiao Yi on his shoulder opened his mouth, and a thumb-sized pink fire cauldron flew out, swelling up in the wind. In the eyes of those envious people, it turned into a huge fire cauldron hundreds of feet long, floating in the sky. Fire dragons circled around the fire cauldron, and the low dragon roar sounded as if it were real. In an instant, the temperature between heaven and earth rose rapidly.

As Xiao Yan’s Fire Cauldron rose, the other three also retreated a distance, each dividing the vast sky into four areas.

Hunxuzi’s figure flashed and appeared on the black fire cauldron. Then he sat cross-legged and waved his sleeves. Countless medicinal materials flew out from his sleeves. For a moment, a strong medicinal fragrance , immediately filled the world.

When each of them was taking action, Elder Wanhuo in the distance also used Nine Nether Wind Flames to condense a fire cauldron. At their level, the medicine cauldron was almost dispensable to them, because they could easily Can use strange fire to condense into the best quality medicine cauldron.

Among the four, the one with the most powerful momentum was Elder Shennong. Above his head, a green sea of ​​flames like liquid spread rapidly, and he sat cross-legged in the sea of ​​fire. With his sleeves waving, many fragrant medicinal seeds flew out and finally fell into the sea of ​​fire. Then, those seeds quickly sprouted in the midst of countless shocked gazes, and then grew rapidly in the blazing flames.

Old man Shennong looked at these rapidly growing medicinal herbs with a smile. He snapped his fingers, and the sea of ​​fire began to ripple. Then it quickly condensed into drops of extremely pure green liquid. In the liquid, one could faintly see traces of flames rising, and a rich breath of life permeated from it.

The green liquids were suspended above the heads of many medicinal herbs, and then quietly slid down. As the flames contaminated the herbs, they grew at a rapid rate as if they had taken a catalyst. In just a dozen minutes, each seed turned into a variety of rare medicinal herbs. For a moment, in the green sea of ​​fire, many fresh medicinal herbs rose up and moved joyfully.

“As expected, it is the Flame of Living Beings”

Xiao Yan, who was far away, could not help but exclaim in admiration when he saw this magical scene. This Flame of Life was the strange fire that alchemists dreamed of except for its weak combat power. This method of accelerating the growth of medicinal materials would be a real artifact if it fell into the hands of Danta or the Medicine Clan. Although he knew in his heart that the cost of accelerating the growth of medicinal materials would be extremely huge for the caster, the formation of many medicinal materials would take at least a hundred years, and this consumption was obviously not worth mentioning compared with that long time.

After praising for a while, Xiao Yan regained his mind and looked at the huge pink fire cauldron in front of him. With a wave of his hand, densely packed medicinal herbs flew out from his storage ring and finally coiled around the fire cauldron. There were probably thousands of kinds of medicinal herbs. Such a number made many alchemists stunned. Compared with the alchemy skills of the four of them, the previous ones, even the nine-colored pill thunder attracted by Yao Tian, ​​were like a dwarf compared to a giant.

“Go ahead.”

Summoning the herbs, Xiao Yan moved his shoulders, and Xiao Yi flew out, then rushed into the fire cauldron. Suddenly, a crack appeared on the fire cauldron, and the suction force surged, swallowing up all the thousands of herbs floating in the sky. Then, flames suddenly rose inside the fire cauldron.

“He actually wants to refine so many medicinal materials at the same time?”

Seeing this scene, even the elders of the Medicine Clan couldn’t help but twitch their faces. Thousands of medicinal materials, each of which required completely different refining ingredients, were thrown into the fire cauldron like this. Is it really possible?

Yao Lao, who was sitting in the VIP seat, looked at Xiao Yan with a smile on his face. He had strong confidence in the latter. Xiao Yan’s attainments in alchemy had already surpassed his teacher.

“How on earth did this guy practice?”

“He’s not much older than us, but this guy is qualified to compete with Elder Wanhuo.”

In the square, many young people of the Medicine Clan gathered together. However, these arrogant young people of the Medicine Clan were now looking at the sky with a look of shock. Even Yao Tian, ​​who had previously obtained the best ranking in the Pharmacopoeia, had a depressed look on his face. Although he was very unwilling in his heart, the huge gap between him and Xiao Yan was impossible to ignore even if he wanted to.

Beside Yao Tian, ​​Yao Ling, who was being treated like a star by everyone, had a cold face and was staring at someone else with her beautiful eyes. It was really strange.

If it were her in the past, the pursuit of alchemy would naturally be her top priority, but now, in such an alchemy ceremony, she couldn’t take her eyes off the man on the other side.

She had seen many handsome men since she was a child, but this was the first time she had seen one who looked like this. Just looking at this face, it was hard to take her eyes off him.

“Yao Xingji, do you know who the person who came with Xiao Yan is?” Yao Ling turned her head and looked at one of her suitors beside her, the man in the Yao clan who gave Xiao Yan the invitation letter to the Pharmacopoeia, Yao Xingji.

“He is Xiao Yan’s younger brother, but I advise you not to get involved with him. He has a close relationship with the young master of the Ancient Clan, and he is not someone we can easily provoke.”

Yao Xingji gave a bitter smile, and it was hard to describe the feeling in his voice. When he was in the coming-of-age ceremony of the ancient clan, he could see the possessiveness that the terrifying young master of the ancient clan showed towards him. It could be said that he really experienced what it meant to be a disaster when your beloved is a male beauty. Therefore, he hurriedly reminded the woman beside him.

Even though the person next to her had a terrifying talent for alchemy, she would not have any doubt about how miserable his end would be if he were to face Gu Xun’er from the ancient clan.

Yao Ling looked at the figure with her beautiful eyes, there was a strange light flashing in her eyes, and she looked aware of it. She did not listen too much to the advice of those around her. Her soul was born different from that of ordinary people. The clan leader once said that if the opportunity was enough, she might be able to set foot in the legendary “Emperor Realm” soul, and she has always been proud of the power of her soul.

But she didn’t know that she would never understand Gu Xun’er’s horror unless she saw it with her own eyes.

As if sensing a different kind of gaze, Xiao Miao turned his head and looked at Yao Ling, whose eyes were somewhat glittering with excitement. He saw a blush on her fair face, and then she lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

But he did not take this scene seriously. Over the years, he had been able to remain calm about the attractiveness of his appearance. He could not dig out someone’s eyes just because they kept staring at him. Apart from his enemies, he was always kind to others as long as they did not provoke him.

At least Hunxuzi in the sky is not among them.

In the sky, those thousands of medicinal herbs were all swallowed up by the fire cauldron. Soon after, Xiao Yan also sat cross-legged in the air. Possessing the spirit of strange fire, he could refine pills countless times more easily than others. With Xiao Yi’s help in controlling the strange fire to perfection, refining medicinal herbs was simply a common thing.

The blazing pink flames completely enveloped the fire cauldron, like a big fireball. Every few minutes, small fireballs would rush out from the fire cauldron and finally rotate around the fire cauldron in the air. These fireballs each contained medicinal liquids and powders of different colors. These were all medicinal materials that had been refined to the purest level.

As more and more fireballs were suspended around Xiao Yan’s fire cauldron, the other three people in the distant sky also gradually refined large quantities of medicinal materials. Although they did not have the spirit of strange fire and could not catch up with Xiao Yan in refining efficiency, they were all grandmasters after all, and refining medicinal materials, such a basic thing, was obviously not a problem for them.

In the square, many alchemists looked at the flowing alchemy techniques in the sky, their faces were filled with fascination, and their eyes were filled with enthusiasm.

The extraction of medicinal materials lasted for about a day. Xiao Yan was the first to open his eyes. He looked at the densely packed fireballs floating around the fire cauldron. He took a deep breath and waved his hand lightly. Many fireballs rushed into the fire cauldron again. Then, an astonishing energy wave spread out crazily from the medicine cauldron, and even the fire cauldron was vibrated and buzzed.

Shortly after Xiao Yan had refined all the herbs, Hunxuzi opened his eyes and threw the refined herbs into the fire cauldron. Then he changed his handprints and shouted, “Power of heaven and earth, obey my command!”

As Hunxuzi’s shout fell, a sudden strong wind blew between the sky and the earth. Endless energy from the heaven and earth gathered towards the Fire Cauldron, and was finally swallowed up by the suction emanating from it. This horrible swallowing was so intense that in the end, the energy seemed to form a mottled energy storm, roaring wildly above the sky, and was finally swallowed up by the Fire Cauldron.

Such a terrifying sound of alchemy made many people secretly swallow their saliva. They had never heard that when refining an elixir, they actually needed to absorb the energy of heaven and earth, because this energy would sometimes break the balance between the medicinal properties and lead to failure.

However, such thoughts were naturally held by ordinary people only. The faces of the elders of the medicine clan and some alchemy masters were filled with horror at this moment. Even the face of the person who was holding the medicine pill in the first place became unusually solemn.

“Gathering the power of heaven and earth to refine the elixir, this method… He actually wants to refine the ninth-grade profound elixir!”

The movement caused by Hunxuzi was also noticed by Xiao Yan and the others. Elder Wanhuo frowned, snorted coldly, his handprints changed, and he shouted loudly: “The power of heaven and earth, condense!”

Hearing Elder Wanhuo’s shout, many people in the Medicine Clan suddenly became excited. Elder Wanhuo actually wants to refine the ninth-grade Xuandan!

“Haha, since both of you are so generous, I can’t fall behind.” Seeing this, old man Shennong laughed and waved his sleeves. The power of heaven and earth became chaotic again, and waves of tremendous energy were pulled into the fire cauldron in front of him.

“Since the three of you are in such a good mood, Xiao Yan can only accompany you.”

Looking at the energy of heaven and earth that was torn into a mess, Xiao Yan smiled faintly. His hand seals changed, and a terrifying suction force burst out directly from the fire cauldron, thrusting in violently, unscrupulously snatching the energy between heaven and earth.

In the square, many alchemists looked at the energy storm erupting with bursts of thunder in the sky, and their hearts were filled with shock. The four of them were actually refining the legendary ninth-grade Xuandan!

This kind of scene is rare to see in a hundred years!
