To be honest, he put a lot of effort into this Blood Luo Pill, just to be prepared for any eventuality!
The young man he encountered today was truly exceptional, so to be on the safe side, he decided to refine the Blood Luo Pill!
Of course, there's another reason: if he successfully refines it, the humiliation that the Myriad Medicine Pavilion previously suffered will greatly diminish, and everyone's attention will surely focus on this!
After all, it's currently known as one of the highest-grade Elixirs!
Naturally, considering the grade of the Blood Luo Pill, the difficulty of refining it is self-evident!
Fortunately, Zou Yuan can basically ensure a success rate of one or two times out of five attempts, so he wasn't too worried!
So after the first failure, he didn't worry and continued refining!
Su Chen wasn't in a hurry. While refining, he suddenly thought of a related issue, so he pondered it with a frown while refining.
People from the Medicine King Valley saw Su Chen suddenly frowning, thinking that this guy had encountered a problem and didn't know how to proceed, so they couldn't help but show mocking expressions!
Compared to their Valley Master, where did this guy get the confidence?!
Zou Yuan also noticed this, a cold sneer tugging at the corner of his mouth!
If they knew that Su Chen was pondering an issue unrelated to the current competition, one wonders what they would think!
Su Chen intentionally lowered the flame a bit, then mused over the small question that just popped up.
In alchemy, some critical steps need strict control, with not the slightest negligence allowed; while other steps are not so crucial, as long as they are well understood!
Zou Yuan also wasn't paying attention to Su Chen for the time being, as he needed his own success!
For the second time, Zou Yuan was even more cautious!
After some time, a sudden rumbling sound came from his alchemy cauldron, followed by a burst of medicinal fragrance!
Zou Yuan's face instantly filled with joy; his luck was indeed good, succeeding on the second attempt today!
In his view, as long as he succeeded once, he would stand invincible!
"Didn't expect Old Zou actually refined the Blood Luo Pill!"
"Yeah, it's really not simple!" Latest content publıshed on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝔫𝔢𝔱
"Truly deserving of being the number one in Alchemy Dao of our Ancient Martial World!"
Everyone was amazed at Zou Yuan's successful refinement of the Blood Jade Pill!
Old Master Qiu had to admit his old rival did surpass him in alchemy skill!
Though he might refine the Blood Luo Pill, his success rate might be lower!
Besides, he didn't believe Zou Yuan was purely lucky in refining the Blood Luo Pill on his second attempt; luck requires strength as a foundation!
At this time, Zou Yuan glanced at Su Chen beside him, noticing Su Chen still deep in thought, and laughed:
"Young man, it's better to be a bit more grounded!"
His words held a hint of reprimand!
Su Chen said nothing, just cast him a sideways glance, a meaningful smile playing on his lips!
At this moment, as the crucial step approached, Su Chen temporarily shelved the small question that had popped up earlier, deciding to think about it later after returning!
Next, Su Chen continued to control the flames, placing the ingredients, and so on!
Zou Yuan snorted and continued refining, after all, he still had five chances!
Additionally, the evaluation took into account both grade and success rate, although he felt confident of his victory!
Others shared the same thought, almost no one believed Su Chen's refined elixir would surpass Zou Yuan's in grade!
Yet at this moment, everyone from the Myriad Medicine Pavilion couldn't help but hold their breaths, though hope was slim, they still wished for a miracle!
A moment later, a dull rumbling sound rang out, invigorating everyone!
This meant the young man's alchemy might also have succeeded!
At that moment, a strange medicinal fragrance filled the hall!
Everyone was puzzled, wondering what kind of elixir the young man had refined, to produce such a strong fragrance?!
However, after taking out the elixir, Su Chen directly put it away, leaving his station to head toward the Myriad Medicine Pavilion's crowd!
The crowd was even more confused; there were still five chances, why was the young man leaving?!
"Mr. Su, you still have four more chances, why aren't you continuing to refine?"
After Su Chen sat down, Qiu Yufei couldn't help but ask.
Su Chen smiled gently, then said:
Upon hearing this, Old Master Qiu jolted sharply, a fierce gleam shooting from his cloudy eyes!
Because the information revealed in the young man's words was so huge, it made him hesitate to imagine further!
Others who heard the words felt this young man was too arrogant, unbelievably so!
What this meant was that the grade of his refined elixir was beyond the Blood Luo Pill, perhaps not just a little higher!
But how could that be?
One must know, the Blood Luo Pill is already among the highest-grade elixirs currently refinable in the Ancient Martial World!
People from the Medicine King Valley were even more enraged upon hearing this!
This young man was truly arrogant, everyone wanted to beat him to vent their anger!
Hearing this, Zou Yuan couldn't continue refining graciously, and snorted coldly:
"Fine, let's compare then, I wish to see what you've refined that's made you so boastful!"
He was already filled with confidence!
He didn't believe that the young man's elixir could surpass the Blood Luo Pill in rank!
If that were true, the young man wouldn't be human, but a monster!
"Alright, let's open your eyes!"
Su Chen casually stood and said with a smile.
Then both handed their respective refined elixirs to the judges for assessment, each returning to their seats!
They first examined the Blood Luo Pill, understanding it well, they quickly set it down.
Then the elders began examining the elixir Su Chen refined!
A moment later, an extraordinarily shocked expression unfurled across their faces, as they continued a meticulous examination!
Seeing the elders' expressions, everyone was filled with bewilderment!
What was happening? Why such expressions from the elders?
More importantly, usually, they would take only two or three minutes to evaluate an elixir, but over ten minutes had passed, and they were still examining!
A moment later, exchanging a glance, the elders stepped out from behind the long table, making their way toward the Myriad Medicine Pavilion's section!
Watching the elders' actions, everyone was filled with even more doubt!
The elders respectfully addressed Su Chen.
