被一股力量反彈回來，玉手麻木。沈翔和柳夢兒同時跳躍開。這時，他們都看清了突然攻擊他們的東西是一條巨大的蛇。“這是太古時期的東西，名叫金剛鱷蟒！”柳夢兒語氣堅定地說道。這金剛鱷蟒體型粗大如水缸，頭顱像巨鱷一樣。身上有著一片片灰色的鱗片，看起來有點類似於鱷魚的皮膚。金剛鱷蟒正用一雙金黃色的眼睛看著沈翔和柳夢兒。它突然張開了大嘴，露出尖利的牙齒，十分嚇人。他們確定，那神秘的獸吼並不是這條金剛鱷蟒發出的！...Chapter 1222: Wang Qiongjin Participates in the Battle
Both alchemists currently competing have formidable mentors. The tutor of the alchemist from the Fire Temple is especially impressive, being the chief alchemist in fire cultivation within heaven. This alchemist can obtain a high-grade furnace, indicating his exceptional alchemy skills.
Li Baojùn is known as an alchemist by the public, but his mentor, Li Tianjun, has already lost to the Azure Cloud Alchemist. Can he win against the disciple of the Azure Cloud Alchemist and restore his mentor's reputation
Now, both are at the same stage in condensing pills, with their capabilities evenly matched. The outcome is more eagerly anticipated.
The two alchemy furnaces shake vigorously, releasing waves of heat that form a hot air current rising into the sky. This makes everyone watching feel stifled.
"It seems that they might condense pills at the same time. If you want to win, it will depend on quality and quantity," Su Meiyao said, "Floating Life Pill can only produce one pill at most. It's hard to refine two pills from it because the quantity of a Nine Death Floating Life Flower isn't enough for this. However, this doesn't mean it's impossible; maybe there are people who can refine two pills, but I haven’t heard of them before."
The scarcity of Nine Death Floating Life Flowers leads to the rarity of this type of pill. Many alchemists can only refine them if their skill is much higher than refining Heaven-grade Lower Rank pills, having the opportunity to do so. They rarely have chances to try refining more than one pill in a batch.
When the crowd watches, Li Baojùn's face shows a calm demeanor, but the intense heat radiating from him makes it seem like he is roaring. He is determined not to lose, as his mentor's defeat by the opponent's mentor has led him to be on a must-win situation.
Shen Xiang can feel this determination now.
The crowd watches the two alchemists attentively, with the scene very quiet as they await the result.
The two furnaces, emitting intense heat, initially shake violently before stopping. Both alchemists open their eyes simultaneously, having completed the process at exactly the same time, which is not a coincidence; it's due to their high-level capabilities as master alchemists. This is the fastest time they can achieve when refining Floating Life Pills.
"Hmph!"
The alchemist from the Fire Temple is somewhat dissatisfied with this result, although there's still no winner yet. The fact that his opponent can match him in time indicates they have similar capabilities, making it challenging for him to accept. He's from heaven and is surpassed by an alchemist who grew up in the lower realm.
"You matched me in time, but that doesn't mean you can match me equally," the Fire Temple alchemist said coldly, "You underestimate yourself by thinking you can match me equally in this competition. It's hard to control the quality of Floating Life Pills, and that is precisely my strong point."
The Fire Temple alchemist believes Li Baojùn's Floating Life Pills have lower quality than his.
Li Baojùn smiles slightly, "Of course, I never thought of matching you equally. Maybe you might lose as well."
"Open the furnace!"
Wang Qiongjin is curious about the result, but she has great confidence in her side's alchemist. She believes Li Baojùn will definitely lose, considering the strong fire spirits of the Fire Temple's alchemists and their abundant resources in the upper realm for practice.
The first to open the furnace was from the Fire Temple, revealing a yellowish pill that the alchemist holds in his palm and raises high, showing everyone the Floating Life Pill.
"It's of superior quality!" Wang Qiongjin said, smiling.
"Of course. It’s been a long time since I last refined low-quality pills," the alchemist said proudly, noticing many powerful figures staring at his Floating Life Pill with admiration on their faces.
In less than a day and night, he can refine a superior-quality Floating Life Pill, indicating his exceptional level. Some legends suggest that some alchemists require much time to refine Floating Life Pills, and their quality isn't guaranteed; they might even cause the furnace to explode.
Li Baojùn nodded, "Yes, it's of superior quality, but that doesn't mean you can win"
He opens the furnace lid, showing a calm expression as he takes out the pill. People are instantly alarmed when they see two yellow light beams emitting from inside the furnace, even during daytime.
It's actually two pills! After the crowd feels shocked, they start discussing excitedly!
The people from Fire Temple are stunned when they see the two newly出爐 Floating Life Pills in Li Baojùn's hand, filled with shock, disbelief, and jealousy. It’s difficult to refine two Floating Life Pills at once, but now someone has managed it.
"You lost!" Li Baojùn said coolly, and after that, he smashes his own furnace with a palm. Everyone is alarmed once again.
A furnace that can be smashed with a single palm must not be of good quality. Li Baojùn uses only this low-quality furnace throughout the process, refining Floating Life Pills afterward. The furnace is almost destroyed by him with a light slap.
The Fire Temple uses an exquisite alchemical furnace, but it's no match for his broken furnace. They were once proud but now suffer a disgraceful defeat.
The two superior-quality Floating Life Pills represent a clear victory, and they were achieved within the same time. This showcases Li Baojùn's superior strength compared to his opponent.
"A disciple of Azure Cloud Alchemist isn't that impressive, I thought she was much stronger," Shen Xiang said coldly, with no one knowing his identity. Therefore, he has nothing to worry about, and Wang Qiongjin, although a Celestial King, couldn't discern him.
"You…" The elder snorted coldly and put away his furnace, turning around to walk behind Wang Qiongjin.
Although they lost, Wang Qiongjin remains calm and doesn't seem to be disappointed. She behaves as if they could never lose.
Wang Qiongjin walks out and addresses Li Baojùn, "Among those who descend from the Dragon Gate, only you are capable of competing with us. I wonder if you can continue pushing forward"
"Unfortunately, our leader was sealed by you guys," Duanchong sighed. "Despite this, it doesn't mean that only Elder Li in our Dragon Gate can refine pills."
The Fire Temple has been avoiding mentioning the sealing of Shen Xiang because it is not a commendable action to seal someone else's leader and then come to their territory, causing trouble.
"Next, it's my turn to compete with you. Who should come from your side" Wang Qiongjin chuckled in an odd tone, sweeping her glance over Shen Xiang and the others.
The alchemist from Fire Temple turns out to be this old lady, who doesn't seem like an alchemist! Shen Xiang was also surprised. Wang Qiongjin is a demonic cultivator, and there are many who understand alchemy among demonic cultivators.
"She indeed knows how to refine pills. Her alchemy skills were good back then, but only limited to Celestial Pills and below. At the time, she was renowned in heaven for her expertise in Heaven-grade pills. Her fire spirit is excellent, and she holds such a high position within Fire Temple, implying that her alchemy skills might have improved considerably," Su Meiyao said.ar沈翔接過那裝有築基丹的玉盒和一個裝著六千萬晶石的儲物袋，他清點了一下，滿意地點了點頭。“小毛頭，你吃過一次虧，下次你會記住的。我讓你去找師傅已經是不錯的了。”沈翔笑道，他將黃錦天搬出來，讓古東辰渾身一顫。古東辰拿著沈翔的築基丹去炫耀了一番，確實非常爽快，讓那些來自海外的掌教巨頭羨慕不已。但過後他就不再感到滿足了，因為每天來找沈翔，沈翔就是不理他，故意拖延時間。古東辰點頭道：“冇錯，我本身就是太...
