Chapter 62: How Is This Possible? The Medicine Sect Has Appeared! Translation
They saw that Gu Xi, who was previously looked down upon by the crowd and even ridiculed by them, was actually still standing at the same spot.
Not only was he using a beginner’s cauldron to refine the Origin Convergence Pill, but the sequence was completely wrong. It could be said that it was upside down and chaotic. It was simply impossible to refine it. However, the truth caused everyone’s jaws to fall.
This person was not disqualified!
“Did the referee make a mistake and forget to cross out his name? It’s really not right for such a person to stay.”
“He definitely failed. Is he so shameless as to refuse to leave?”
However, the competition was strict. There would definitely not be such a situation where the judgment was missed. Even if there was a referee, he would quickly find the clues and chase the person out.
Someone went to the judge, but the reply he received was that he had refined the Origin Convergence Pill. It belonged to a person who had successfully advanced, and there was nothing suspicious about it.
Hearing this answer, everyone was in disbelief. It was such a person who could even get the order wrong, and he had even refined that cauldron that was only used by beginners. He had actually refined the pill!
It felt like the entire world had become a fantasy.
“I can’t figure out how he did it. Did anyone see it?”
“No, I didn’t pay attention to him after that.”
After a round of questioning, no one was able to see the entire process of Gu Xi’s refinement.
Everyone thought that he would definitely fail. After all, he did not even understand the most basic things, and they did not want to waste their attention on him.
In addition, Gu Xi was seated at the back. If one did not pay close attention, it would be easy to overlook him. As a result, no one knew how he had successfully refined it.
Everyone felt as if there were ten million ants crawling in their hearts. They scratched their ears and cheeks, extremely curious.
“Forget it, maybe it was just a fluke. This kind of luck does not come every time. Just wait and see, he will be eliminated in this round.”
Although the probability was very small, it did not rule out that there were those who were lucky enough to accidentally refine a medicinal pill. Everyone believed that Gu Xi was like this. Otherwise, based on his level and skill, how could he possibly refine it?
“I announce the official start of the second round. I request that everyone refine a 7th grade medicinal pill. As long as the grade reaches a certain level, you will be able to pass.”
Following the host’s voice, everyone’s attention was instantly drawn over. They did not have the time to care about how Gu Xi refined the Origin Convergence Pill anymore.
“The requirements are to refine as they wish. There are no strict restrictions on medicinal pills. It seems that this round isn’t difficult at all.”
When the alchemist who had been sifted out earlier heard this, he immediately revealed a complicated expression. “No, you’re wrong. This round is even more difficult.”
“How do you explain this? Could it be that there’s some hidden reason?”
“Some special 7th grade pills are even easier to refine than 6th grade pills. At first glance, it seems that this match is really simple. However, the true pitfall is at the back.”
Although it was difficult to refine the Origin Convergence Pill previously, the referee had specially chosen it for a reason. It was because these medicinal plants did not repel each other, and they were all the same medicinal pills. Therefore, there was no need to consider other problems during the refinement process.
However, this match allowed everyone to freely perform. Even if you chose a mild medicinal ingredient, and all things were mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, it was difficult to guarantee that the aura that was leaked out during the refining process of the medicinal pill by others would have an impact.
As a result, the quality of the medicinal pill would be sucked in by these miscellaneous auras. It would cause a conflict with the original medicinal herbs and even cause mutual restraint. In the end, the quality of the pills might drop drastically. Additionally, if the cauldron exploded, it would be dangerous.
Hearing this person’s explanation, everyone suddenly came to a realization. “During the pill refinement process, there will be pill auras. Since the competition is so close to each other, it will definitely affect each other. If you want to truly succeed, it will be even more difficult.”
After understanding the circuitous logic behind this, only then did they realize the difficulty of the second round. It could be said to be on the level of a nightmare.
“I knew that it wouldn’t be that simple.”
“In a short period of time, we have to take into account all the factors and influences on the stage, and also choose the most suitable pill that which is easier to refine. Not only does it measure a person’s refinement skill, it also tests his judgment and eyesight.”
There was still only the time for one incense stick to burn. The questions sounded easier than the ones on the stage, but there were more things to test, starting from endurance, observation, and a few other aspects.
As expected, many of the contestants in the arena fell into deep thought as they looked at the herbs in front of them. Since they were able to reach this stage, they naturally could find the deeper meaning of the task at hand, so they did not act rashly. Instead, they buried their heads in deep thought.
“Hey, look, someone has already taken action.”
Baizhi had already picked the herbs, and there was no pause during the process. She looked like she had a plan in mind, which attracted everyone’s praise. “As expected of the Alchemy Emperor’s disciple, she has already thought of what to refine so quickly.”
In addition, there was another person who caught everyone’s attention. He was wearing a black mask, but his exposed skin was a little pale, as if he had not seen the sun for a long time.
The mask had an unknown pattern drawn on it that covered most of his face, making him look very mysterious.
This person started to fill his cauldron with herbs, looking to be on par with Baizhi. His steps were strangely in sync, as if he was also strategizing.
“Who is this person? He actually seems to be on par with the Alchemy Emperor’s disciple.”
“He seems to be from the Medicine Sect. His name is Han Tian.” There seemed to be someone who knew his identity in the arena, but his performance was extremely secretive. “This person’s background isn’t any less than the Alchemy Emperor’s disciple.”
“It’s the Medicine Sect!”
It was rumored that the Medicine Sect was filled with talented people. If Alchemy Emperor Lu was the first choice that everyone wanted to acknowledge as their master, then the Medicine Sect was the sect that all the alchemists in the world wanted to enter.
The Medicine Sect not only had a rich collection of pill formulas. It was said that there were even ancient pill formulas that had already been lost. It could be said that it was a heaven for alchemists, and it even had all kinds of medicinal herbs, it even cultivated many rare and precious treasures.
