The noise and various discussions gradually subsided, although many people guessed that Ye Mo originally had the formula for the ‘Tian Hua Dan’, but no one dared to say it, this was the Dan King Competition. Even if they had any doubts, they would have to wait until after the competition before raising them.
Or wait until after the next two rounds, that Luo Xiaomo would automatically show up in his original form. For the third round of the ‘Twelve Dan King Rank’, if one did not have the strength, even if one was lucky, there was no way to go up.
At this point, there were only one hundred participating dan masters left on the stage, and the remaining four hundred or so dan masters who were not on the list had already retired.
Shen Yanqing stood up and announced, “We will now proceed to the second round of this competition, refining the pills that each of us broke down in the first round. The important points to be scored in this round are in the purification of the herbs and the control of the dan fire. At that time, each dan master’s steps in refining and purifying their pills will be recorded and sent to our judges’ table. There is no time limit for the second round and you can use your own dan furnace.”
Ye Mo had to sigh that compared to the North Hope Continent, the level of the South An Continent was not a little bit higher. For the North Hope Continent’s Alchemy Hall of Fame Competition, the organiser had also provided each participant with a special potion furnace in order to get the steps to refine their pills. Whereas the Southern An Continent had only arranged a monitoring formation for each participant, which completely solved the problem.
By the time the various spiritual pills were distributed to Ye Mo, Ye Mo was even more impressed by Dan City’s wealth and generosity. Although many of the Dan masters in the first round had only analysed three or four of the herbs, over a hundred of them added up to quite a lot, and Dan City didn’t even frown when so many of them were taken out.
You should know that when he signed up for the Dan King Competition, he didn’t even take out a single spirit stone, so it was clear that this Dan King Competition was really for Dan masters.
This time Ye Mo didn’t bother to pay attention to other Dan masters, he knew that although there was no time limit this time, it would definitely not be long. This was because many of the Dan masters would not be refining pills, they would just be purifying the spirit medicine. Once they didn’t have to refine pills, but just purify a few spiritual medicines, the purity would definitely not be low.
Ye Mo had gotten his hands on eleven medicinal herbs, except for the ‘Crying Beast Inner Pill’ which was of the sixth grade. The rest of the herbs were all top grade herbs of their kind.
If he had known that he would have written a level seven ‘Crying Clam Beast Internal Dan’, this Dan City really had everything he wanted. Even the ‘Crying Clam Beast Inner Pill’ was readily available.
Many cultivators had already sacrificed their dan furnaces and dan fires to start purifying the spiritual medicines, so Ye Mo didn’t delay, and after checking that the medicinal materials were correct, he directly sacrificed his own Shen Nong Cauldron. At the same time, he was about to sacrifice his ‘Purple Aoi Fire’.
However, before Ye Mo could sacrifice his ‘Purple Aoi Fire’ he changed his mind. He thought of a loophole in it, if he sacrificed his ‘Purple Aoi Flame’ now, without him having to say anything, anyone who was a little smarter could think that he had cheated in the first round.
Decomposing pills was far more difficult than refining them. He didn’t use the strange fire in the first round when decomposing the pills, instead he used the ‘Purple Aoi Fire’ when refining the pills, didn’t this mean that he had the answer to the first round in his mind at all?
Thinking about this, Ye Mo was secretly shocked. Although he would receive countless honours for decomposing the ‘Tian Hua Dan’, once it was known that it was cheated to come, it was not certain how much of those honours would be left. If it was in normal times, he could care less, but now, at this time, he wanted fame and glory. For him, the bigger the reputation the better, and the more publicity he gets the safer he is.
Because he also knows that. As soon as this Dan King Competition was over, everything about him would be exposed, even his appearance in Nan’an City would be revealed.
So he temporarily changed his mind and just offered up the ‘Infant Fire’.
At this time, it could be said that ninety percent of the entire arena was paying attention to Ye Mo, so the moment Ye Mo offered up the ‘Baby Fire’ it immediately caused countless people to boo. Ye Mo had performed spectacularly in the first round and had also perfectly decomposed the ‘Heavenly Hua Dan’, but he never expected that the flame he used to make the pills was still ‘infant fire’, and he didn’t even have a heaven and earth dan fire.
Several good Ye Mo’s judges also shook their heads. Compared to the second place finisher, Jiu Qian, and the rest of the top fifty entrants, this Luo Xiaomo’s flame was really dismal.
Only Yue Qi overlooked that Shen Nong Furnace of Ye Mo’s and said, “That Dan Furnace of his is very uncomplicated. And it looks odd, very different from ordinary dan furnaces.”
“Senior Lu, you have a lot of flames, just give a random one to this Luo Xiaomo when the time comes, this baby flame of his is too, too…” Ji endowed, who was sitting beside Lu Wuhu, was very fond of this Luo Xiaomo who won the first place in the first round, if he didn’t have a strange flame, he would have given one to this seventh grade spirit dan Master. He didn’t know anything about pellet furnaces, so he could only ask Lu Wuhu to send a strange fire to Ye Mo.
Lu Wuhu said with a heated smile, “This brat still owes me a favour, now he wants me to send a flame, he should not dream. But this kid of mine is a bit cunning, it shouldn’t be that simple.”
Ji endowment was the good old man, he was speechless Lu Wuhu, thinking that if he didn’t send it, then he wouldn’t send it, there was no need to say that a junior was treacherous.
Ning Qingxue saw that Ye Mo was still using the baby flame to refine pills, her heart was even more sour, of the hundred people participating here, only her husband used the baby flame, the worst one of the others’ flames was better than his. She herself must help Ye Mo inquire about a good flame, and then change his alchemy flame.
There was only one person in the whole room who understood what Ye Mo was doing, and that was Jing Yingli. When Jing Yingli saw Ye Mo using the baby fire to refine pills, she muttered to herself, “Self-made.”
After Ye Mo had perfectly broken down the ingredients of the ‘Heavenly Flower Pill’ in the first round, she didn’t care at the time, but she soon reacted and suspected that Ye Mo had the recipe for this kind of pills. She was different from others because she was aware that Ye Mo wanted to become famous this time, and she also knew that Ye Mo had more than one type of strange fire.
Since Ye Mo attached such importance to the Grand Competition, it was impossible for him to use baby fire, and the only explanation for Ye Mo using baby fire was that he already knew the recipe for the ‘Tian Hua Dan’. At this moment, she likewise understood that if Ye Mo knew the recipe for the ‘Tian Hua Dan’, he would have been more likely to use a strange fire in the first round, instead of using baby fire.
And in fact it was Ye Mo who used the ‘baby fire’ in the first round, so he couldn’t use the strange fire at all in the second round because that wasn’t normal, but unfortunately she couldn’t remind Ye Mo.
Sure enough the slight hesitation of Ye Mo was out by her and she was relieved, she was afraid that Ye Mo wouldn’t know the importance and use the Heavenly Flame instead in the second round, or another strange fire. Luckily, Ye Mo temporarily understood the seriousness of the matter and still used the baby fire.
Only this way, the pills he refined would have to drop a notch.
Even if Ye Mo had used the baby fire, there were still countless people who were watching him. Some doubted that Ye Mo knew the answer in the first round, and many more wanted to know how a seventh-grade spirit dan master could refine a ninth-grade spirit dan.
It could be said that once Ye Mo couldn’t refine a ninth-grade spirit pellet, then his first round results would not only be doubted, but he would also be laughed at.
As a fourth or even fifth grade Dan King, Ye Mo would certainly not be afraid of not being able to refine a ninth grade spirit pellet, even if he used the baby fire, he could still refine a ninth grade spirit pellet.
When several judges saw Ye Mo casually throwing all eleven kinds of herbs, regardless of order or grade, into the pottery, they almost stood up with wide eyes.
Was this guy a jerk? How could there be such a dan master who refines pills? It is a very important part of a dan master’s refining process to purify the herbs, and generally the spiritual medicines are thrown into the furnace in strict steps, from the difficult ones to the simple ones. The dregs were also discharged in strict steps, and there was also a strict distinction between the order of the herbs.
If it wasn’t for Ye Mo’s eye-catching performance in the first round, perfectly interpreting the ‘Tian Hua Dan’ dan recipe, these judges would have had no interest in going to this seventh grade alchemist.
“Phew ……” Shen Yanqing panted and suddenly got to Yue Qichao and said, “Brother Yue, I really have to wonder too if this seventh grade spirit dan master could have known the ‘Tian Hua Dan ‘ Dan recipe, he is simply …… refining pills”
Although the latter words were not spoken, but several judges understood what he meant, Ye Mo’s attitude in refining pills against spirit herbs was simply like a cow chewing on a peony.
“This kid, if he is really an abuser, then he is the most unbelievably lucky one to be an abuser.” Lu Wuhu smiled as he looked at Ye Mo, not seeming to care about Ye Mo’s alchemy technique.
Even those who didn’t know anything about alchemy could see that Ye Mo’s technique was a bit improper.
Ye Mo, on the other hand, had bitterness to say, he used the baby fire in the first round and now all the people were paying attention to him, the only way he could remove the suspicion of others was to show that indifferent attitude and then refine the ‘Tian Hua Dan’. This was pretending for the sake of pretending.
Although Ye Mo’s alchemy inheritance technique was different from others, he never refined pills in the same strict sequential order as other dan masters. Usually, he would just throw in a handful of four or five herbs and then control the refinement, but throwing all eleven spiritual medicines into the furnace like today was still really a bit stressful for him.
Luckily, his divine sense is incomparably strong and his preliminary dan skills are extremely incomparable, so even though there are eleven kinds of medicinal herbs, he still has complete control over them inside the dan furnace, and they are refined one by one. At the same time, the remnants of those medicinal herbs were isolated and thrown out of the dan furnace.
Although the refinement of the baby fire was slower than the other flames, Ye Mo was refining them together and was not slow at all in speed, as the others gradually refined the herbs completely.
“Phew ……” Shen Yanqing panted once again, “This Luo Xiaomo is the most talented dan master I’ve ever seen, there is no one.”
This time again all the judges understood what he meant, Ye Mo threw eleven medicinal herbs into the dan furnace at the same time regardless of rank or order. This was simply not a conventional alchemy technique, even for them, as a senior Dan King, it was extremely difficult, if not impossible, to do this.
This Luo Xiaomo had surpa*sed their expectations, and the result was even more surprising. Not only did he refine and purify the eleven types of spiritual medicines perfectly, but he was also no slower than other dan masters in terms of speed.
If you know that he was using baby fire, and the others were using strange fires, so he was not even slower than the others, that was actually too much faster than the others.
What is genius, this is ah.
