A Proud Man Called Himself A Medicinal God!

Chapter 578: Duel on the Fireplace

Chapter 578: Duel on the Fireplace

Because it was Shen Xiang's alchemy competition, and the people who were hanging around in Piaoxiang City knew something about elixirs, it had attracted many people to come and watch.

"The winner has nothing to do with the grade or quantity of the pills, but who can make them. I think we are facing the same difficulty in refining pills that we have never made before. We will compete in rounds, and in each round we will refine pills that we have never made before. If someone fails to make it, they will lose!" Fan Yakun smiled and said, "What pill do you plan to refine first? I can provide you with medicinal materials."

Shen Xiang's eyebrows twitched. From the rules of this competition, the requirements for the performance of the refining method are extremely high. Otherwise, if you make a mistake, it means losing. Once you lose, you will have to pay a heavy price. This is indeed very challenging.

"I can just use my own herbs!" Shen Xiang shook his head and refused. He knew his own herbs best. Knowing the herbs was also a great benefit when using the refining method.

"Oh? Are you worried that I don't have any? I still have several kinds of medicinal materials for Xuan-level top-grade pills!"

After hearing what Fan Yakun said, Shen Xiang knew that the medicinal resources in the Holy Pill Realm were very rich. If it was in a place like the Fanwu Realm, it would be difficult to master a large amount of rare medicinal resources without having a sect with a long history. Of course, except for a freak like Shen Xiang.

"What I want to refine is the Xuanyang Fire Pill. Do you have it?" Shen Xiang asked with a smile.

Fan Yakun shook his head: "I don't have it. This kind of Xuan-level high-grade pill is quite difficult to obtain. I would like to see it."

As he spoke, he took out two alchemy furnaces that looked very inferior.

"To be fair, we all use the same alchemy furnace, and during the refining process, if you fail to successfully refine the elixir, you will be considered a loser."

Shen Xiang took the alchemy furnace, and after taking a look at it, his brows slightly frowned. This alchemy furnace was indeed of very low quality, the kind that would be easily exposed. If it was to be used to refine a mid-grade Xuan-level elixir, and it was his first challenge, the difficulty would be even greater.

Fan Yakun took the truth stone and said, "I want to refine the anti-aging pill. I have never refined this kind of pill before!"

The truth stone did not emit red light, proving that Fan Yakun was telling the truth. Now it was Shen Xiang's turn.

Some people who knew about the Rejuvenating Pill exclaimed in amazement after hearing these three words, because they knew very well that this pill was most needed by many women, especially those who were getting older. With this pill, they could temporarily maintain their appearance.

Shen Xiang tightly grasped the stone: "I have never refined the Xuanyang Fire Pill."

The stone did not light up, so Shen Xiang returned the stone to Fan Yakun.

Xuan Yang Fire Pill is a top-grade Xuan-level pill. To Shen Xiang, it is a completely unfamiliar field. The Rejuvenation Pill that Fan Yakun wants to refine is also a mid-grade Earth-level pill. The pills that the two chose were pills that they had never refined before.

"That stone is a really good thing. If I had one, I would definitely let this little rascal hold it and talk to me all day long." Hua Xiangyue said with a laugh.

Liu Meng'er is not as relaxed as Hua Xiangyue right now. She is very worried about Shen Xiang.

"If we can't decide the winner in this round, we'll have to go to the next round. If the two have equal control over the refining technique, then it will be a test of endurance." Hua Xiangyue said, "You don't have to worry about him. He has a strong grasp of the refining technique and is improving very quickly. I think he is also using this competition to improve himself. He is very confident in himself."

If he lost, Shen Xiang would have to give the alchemy furnace to Fan Yakun. This would be a huge loss because Shen Xiang knew very well how precious the Flame Dragon Treasure Furnace was.

Both Shen Xiang and Fan Yakun handled the medicinal materials very seriously.

"If we both fail in refining the elixir in the same round, that round will not count and we can start over again." Fan Yakun said.

Shen Xiang nodded. The Nine Yang Flame Fruit and Fire Soul Grass in his hands were particularly dazzling. Especially for those who practiced fire, these two kinds of elixirs were like treasures. Even if they were eaten directly, they would be of great help to those who practiced fire.

The medicinal herbs that Fan Yakun was processing were not very eye-catching. Although Shen Xiang didn't look at them, he knew what they were because he had some himself.

Fan Yakun was also attracted by the medicinal herbs in Shen Xiang's hand. He had seen the Xuanyang Fire Pill, but had never owned any medicinal herbs. Alchemists are always curious about things they don't know. However, he was a little puzzled that Shen Xiang was not attracted by the Rejuvenating Pill in his hand at all. He guessed that Shen Xiang also had this kind of medicinal herbs.

It is indeed a very surprising thing for a person in the Fanwu Realm to possess such precious medicinal materials. If Fan Yakun knew that Shen Xiang had some heavenly-grade medicinal materials, he would definitely be even more surprised, because those things are very rare even in the Shengdan Realm, but Shen Xiang can produce a large amount of them.

Medicinal materials are precious because they are rare. The reason for their rarity is that it takes a very long time for medicinal materials to mature. Some take tens of thousands of years to mature. Even if they are planted, it takes a very long time.

"This alchemy furnace is so damn rotten, I'm really worried that it will explode!" Shen Xiang carefully put the medicinal materials into the alchemy furnace. He was very nervous now, he didn't want to lose the precious alchemy furnace.

The main medicinal ingredients of Xuanyang Fire Pill are all of fire attribute, and have very strong fire resistance. They will also occasionally swallow flames to nourish themselves. If the fire is too weak, it will nourish the medicinal materials in disguise. If it is too strong, it will easily destroy the energy inside the medicinal materials. For this point, Shen Xiang must grasp it very accurately.

Therefore, he had to push the refining method to its limit and figure out exactly what level of flame was appropriate.

"I have to keep a trick up my sleeve. I don't think even this furnace can last long. It's not meant for refining pills at all!"

Shen Xiang frowned and quietly released his magic power. A phantom magic furnace was formed, wrapping the inferior alchemy furnace. Shen Xiang was also ready to move the flame and medicinal materials in the alchemy furnace into the phantom magic furnace at the moment when something went wrong. This required extremely high magic power and spiritual awareness, and it was also easy to fail.

Fan Yakun also became secretly nervous at this time. He was refining a mid-grade earth-level pill, which had much higher requirements for flames than Shen Xiang. At this time, he also realized that the endurance of the alchemy furnace was very poor. This alchemy furnace was bought casually on the street. He overestimated these inferior alchemy furnaces.

In the middle of the square, everyone stayed away from Shen Xiang and Fan Yakun, because they saw that the originally gray alchemy furnace was now slowly turning red, and oppressive heat was overflowing from the surface of the inferior alchemy furnace. It looked like it was about to explode at any time, which was very scary.

"Both of them have a very strong grasp of the alchemy techniques. They can actually use this rubbish furnace for more than half an hour!" Hua Xiangyue was on the high tower, staring at the two furnaces that seemed to be about to melt, her beautiful eyes flashing.
