Chapter 209 Advance to the Finals
"Chief referee, I am willing to try the pill." Xuan Yuanhao recommended himself.
"Try the pills you refined by yourself, it's like yellow mud falling into your crotch. It's either shit or shit. This is unfair." Before the referee could speak, a person watching the game from Canglan County and State Alchemy Association opposed it without any hesitation.
No wonder they are anxious, because Kitano Xingchi is currently ranked fourth. Although they do not believe that the spiritual pill refined by Xuan Yuanhao can increase its spiritual power by more than 10%, what if a miracle happens? At that time, Kitano Xingchi will be squeezed to fifth place and eliminated.
"Chief Referee, the disciple's martial arts realm is just the fourth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, which is consistent with the eight previous pill testers. The disciple is also very curious about Xuan Yuanhao's spiritual power and is willing to help him test pills."
The person who spoke was the wind and snow of Cangfeng County and was currently ranked first in this group. Because he had received help from Xuan Yuanhao before, he was able to repay his kindness.
Feng Chuxue is also a person who is crazy about refining alchemy. She is also very curious whether the elixirs refined by Xuan Yuanhao can really exceed 10%?
After Feng Chuxue tested his spiritual power, he put the spiritual pill refined by Xuan Yuanhao into his mouth without hesitation, meditated on the spot, and refined the pill.
Two hours later, Feng Chuxue stretched out his slender hand, held the spirit test bead, and began the second test of the spirit pill.
Soon, the spirit test beads began to show beautiful colors.
Although the observer was a little far from the Spirit Testing Bead, he knew that the increase in spiritual power was definitely far higher than the first time by relying on the brilliant light emitted by the Spirit Testing Bead.
Feng Chuxue was a little surprised. She was the one who tried the pills, so naturally she knew the test results first. Sure enough, what Xuan Yuanhao said was true.
When the nine referees learned the test results, they couldn't help but take a breath. Sure enough, Kuang had the confidence to increase his spiritual power by as high as 11%, which was comparable to the alchemy genius Feng Chuxue.
This posed a problem for the nine referees.
After some intense discussion, the nine referees finally gave the result.
The first place is the wind blows snow.
The second place is Youbaili.
The third place is Miao Feiyu.
The fourth place is Xuan Yuanhao.
The fifth place is Kitano Hoshichi.
...
Originally, three referees suggested that Xuan Yuanhao should rank second, at least third, because Xuan Yuanhao's effects are far better than Youbaili and Miao Feiyu in terms of elixir formula or spiritual pill.
But after the referee thought deeply, one thing was that Xuan Yuanhao only became two pills, and the other thing was that Xuan Yuanhao experienced another challenge. It was safer to be ranked fourth in the overall ranking. Anyway, the group stage results would not be brought into the finals, so you can advance to the finals.
The referee asked the other seven contestants in a letter (fake) and vowed (fake) and asked, "Do you have any opinions?"
The other six people in the same group naturally would not have any objections. The pill recipe is the best and the pill is the best. Although there were dangers during the pill refining process, which eventually led to only two pills, it could not affect Xuan Yuanhao's advance to the final with fourth place.
Just when everyone took this result for granted, another inappropriate voice suddenly sounded - "Disciples objected."
"Chief referee, as far as my disciple knows, there has never been a precedent for giving a player two chances in the Qingzhou Alchemy Competition for more than 500 years. Now, it is an exception for Xuan Yuanhao, and the disciple thinks it is unfair. We all know that Xuan Yuanhao has a good relationship with the young master of Wuji of the Zhao family of the first family in Qingzhou. Is it just because of this reason that the organizing committee made an exception to give Xuan Yuanhao two chances to test the alchemy, depriving his disciple of the qualification to advance, and the disciple is dissatisfied."
Kitano Xingchi is cunning and never mentions the perfection of Xuan Yuanhao's pill recipe and the powerful effect of the elixir. He never mentions that Xuan Yuanhao risked canceling the game results in order to win the second test opportunity, nor did he mention that Canglan County and State visited Zhao Nankui and learned the half-way test questions in advance. He only made Xuan Yuanhao and Zhao Wuji have a good relationship, and based on subjective speculation, he deliberately guided many viewers to the shady thinking of the game.
Sure enough, under the inspiration of the people watching the battle from the Canglan County and the Alchemy Association, the spectators from several first-class counties and second-class counties could not see a player from the lower counties and the three first-class counties and states reaching the finals. There were many discussions, and some even shouted out "shady curtains" and "re-match" and other voices.
The nine referees were also a little hesitant. In the more than 500-year history of the Qingzhou Dandao Competition, there has never been a precedent for giving the same player two tests in the same round. Xuan Yuanhao was indeed the first person to take the lead.
"Chief referee, my disciple requested another round with Xuan Yuanhao, and the winning side entered the final with the fourth place in the group. If the disciple loses, there will definitely be no objection. I wonder what Xuan Yuanhao wants?"
Seeing that the nine referees were hesitant, Kitano Seika took the opportunity to make a request for another round of the match.
Before the nine referees could make a statement, Xuan Yuanhao immediately said, "Chief referee, the disciple is willing to accept the challenge. If the disciple loses and gives up his qualification to enter the finals, there is no objection."
Seeing that both stakeholders agreed to another round of the match, the nine referees reported to the event organizing committee at this time to be cautious, and even reported to President Zhao Nankui, Qingzhou Alchemy Association, and finally decided to play another round of the match and the winner advanced to the final.
When Zhao Nankui saw that the incident was a friend of his younger generation Zhao Wuji, who was also a young generation of alchemy genius who was optimistic about him. On the other hand, he accepted the other party's gift and had to reveal half of the question Kitano Xingchi of Canglan County, and became interested in a moment. Not only did he come to watch the battle himself, but he even prepared to give a test question himself.
Seeing Zhao Nankui visiting the scene in person, spectators from other venues rushed over. For a moment, the assessment site of the seventh-grade alchemist was crowded and crowded.
"Since both of you are willing to have a more-scoring question, I will give you a question to test you, and the final result will be decided unanimously by me and the nine referees."
"A few days ago, a friend of mine was injured by evil cold and fire poison. Half of his body's cold air was in the bone, and half of his body's fire poison was in the bone, and he fell into a state of false death. Before I could refine alchemy treatment, you would show your ability and take various means at will to investigate the causes of the patients, alchemy treatment, and the medicinal materials required are provided by Qingzhou Alchemy Association. If the range of medicinal materials collected by Alchemy Association, I'm sorry, I can only ask you to change the pill recipe. From diagnosis, generation of pill recipes, treatment to alchemy, I will give each of you four hours."
Soon, a staff member carried the patient who had been unconscious to a room. Sure enough, half of his body was as frozen, with cold air, and half of his body was as hot air, with hot air. The breath of life was very weak, and his life was almost hanging in a thread.
At the same time, the body is infected with cold and fire poison. This case is very rare. It can be said that the question that President Zhao tested is very difficult. In addition to examining the players' alchemy ability, it also examines the players' practical operation ability, understanding of various diseases, familiarity with various pill recipes, and on-the-spot adaptability. The difficulty is even better than the previous three-round group knockout rounds.
This is definitely a huge challenge for Xuan Yuanhao, because even the alchemy inheritance of the Dan Sheng Qixia, "Miaoshou Danxin", has never recorded such a spiritual pill that treats evil cold and fire poison at the same time. Xuan Yuanhao needs to decide on the pill recipe based on the patient's actual situation.
However, for Xuan Yuanhao, the greater the challenge, the greater the value of training and the greater the gain.
According to the competition number, Kitano Seichi got the opportunity to prioritize the detection of patients, with a time of one stick of incense, followed by Xuan Yuanhao.
After observing the patient with a period of time, Kitano Seki surrounded the patient's back and covered his palms with spiritual power into the patient's body, trying to detect the lesions that caused the patient's false death. Kitano Seki frowned. Obviously, this was also the first time he had made such a complicated and strange disease.
After one incense stick, Kitano Seichi reluctantly left the patient's ward. Obviously, Kitano Seichi did not find the final lesion.
However, Kitano Seichi was still a little confident. The comparison between him and Xuan Yuanhao was not completely cured, but who had the better elixir effect. As long as the elixir he designed and refined elixir was better than Xuan Yuanhao, he could win.
Xuan Yuanhao entered the patient's room under the guidance of the staff.
Judging from the appearance alone, the patient obviously has the evil cold and fire poison, but the evil cold and heat poison are contradictory and rejection. The reason why the patient is infected with two situations at the same time is very important. It is the basis for prescribing the elixir. However, the patient has fallen into a false death and cannot speak, so he can only analyze and verify it by himself.
Xuan Yuanhao covered his hands on the patient's dantian and guided the five elements of spiritual power into the patient's body. At the same time, he carefully pulled out a thread of spiritual consciousness and entered the patient's dantian and meridians with the spiritual power.
According to the patient's sea of spiritual power, it can be seen that the patient has at least the cultivation level of the Golden Dan realm. Half of the sea of spiritual power is frozen, and half of the body has no trace of spiritual power flows, without any vitality, and it has all solidified into icicles; the other half of the sea of spiritual power is boiling with bubbles and gradually evaporates. If the patient does not receive timely and effective treatment, half of the sea of spiritual power and blood will completely evaporate.
Even if Xuan Yuanhao's five elements spiritual power has healing functions, it will have no effect on the patient in a short period of time.
Xuan Yuanhao was helpless. According to the information he has found so far, even if he uses the strongest fire-attributed elixir, he is not sure to cure the patient's cold poison, not to mention that half of his body is in the fire poison.
After the incense stick, Xuan Yuanhao ended the investigation helplessly, but the disease and the dantian and meridians in his body have been firmly imprinted in the sea of consciousness, just like a real person in front of him, and he can continue to investigate and verify.
Xuan Yuanhao was not in a hurry to design the pill recipe, but while using his second level of "The First Interpretation of Hongmeng", Qi Refining and Transforming God's Art, to restore spiritual power and cultivate gentlemen, he continued to deduce and confirm in the sea of consciousness, and practiced possible solutions one by one in the sea of consciousness, knocked down and started over.
Finally, after an hour of deduction, Xuan Yuanhao finally determined the pill recipe. He was preparing to go on a dangerous journey and refine a seventh-grade spiritual pill "Ice and Fire". One spiritual pill contains fire-attribute medicinal materials and ice-attribute medicinal materials, which led Huang into Jin, communicated with the upper and lower parts, and combined the evil and cold poison of the sick half of the body and the fire poison of the half body into one. Under the action of the spiritual pill, the purpose of yin and yang harmony and elimination of the invisible purpose.
After Xuan Yuanhao handed over the pill recipe he designed to the staff, soon the medicinal materials needed by Xuan Yuanhao were sent to Xuan Yuanhao. There were a total of fourteen kinds, seven of which were used to restrain fire poisons, and the other seven were used to restrain cold poisons.
When Zhao Nankui saw Xuan Yuanhao's pill recipe, he couldn't help but be happy and surprised.
What I was happy about is that Xuan Yuanhao's elixir recipe ideas were almost the same as himself, both of which were all about the idea of harmonizing yin and yang; what I was surprised was that Xuan Yuanhao was just an alchemist from a fourth-class county and country. He was no more than twenty years old and had such a superior knowledge. In time, his future achievements might be above him; more of them were very curious about the people behind Xuan Yuanhao. Obviously, the ability of his master Wei Dansheng in the name of Xuan Yuanhao could not be trained such an excellent disciple.
At the same time, Zhao Nankui was also a little worried. With Xuan Yuanhao's spiritual power and spiritual sense, he could refine a spiritual pill that contained both the functions of fire attribute and ice attribute.
On the other hand, because it was started one hour earlier, Kitano Seki had already entered the critical moment of alchemy. Regardless of the efficacy, Kitano Seki had to refine spiritual elixirs, which is the basis for victory.
In his opinion, if the elixir he and Xuan Yuanhao were similar in effect, President Zhao Nankui would undoubtedly be biased towards him. After all, in order to visit Zhao Nankui, the Canglan County and State Alchemy Association gave Zhao Nankui a spiritual medicine that Zhao Nankui had been looking for for a long time as a meeting gift, and Zhao Nankui also paid tribute to the exchange and gave half-way competition questions.
As Zhao Nankui was worried, Xuan Yuanhao overestimated his abilities, or rather overestimated his spiritual power. To refine a spiritual pill that contains both fire and ice attribute functions, it requires very high spiritual power to the alchemist. With Xuan Yuanhao's current spiritual power, it is impossible to complete the alchemist's refining.
Therefore, when the first furnace of spiritual pill was still in the "Transformation of the Seven-character Alchemy formula, the spiritual power did not continue and the medicine liquid could not be fully transformed, resulting in the failure of refining.
According to Xuan Yuanhao's alchemy speed, Xuan Yuanhao has at most two chances to refine it. If all of them fail, he will completely miss the final round. This not only affects the overall ranking of the Yunwu County National Alchemy Association, but also affects his own plan to make money. Xuan Yuanhao has put a heavy bet on himself!
After a little adjustment and taking a few spiritual pills, Xuan Yuanhao continued to refine the second furnace of spiritual pills. Although this time he advanced to the "Correcting Characters", it was still because Xuan Yuanhao's spiritual power was not strong enough, resulting in the failure of the alchemy refining.
There is not much time and opportunity left for Xuan Yuanhao, and Xuan Yuanhao has no chance to try and make mistakes again.
In desperation, Xuan Yuanhao had to communicate with Yan Ruyu in the small world in his body through his spiritual sense.
Xuan Yuanhao truthfully told Yan Ruyu and Pan that he had encountered. Yan Ruyu said like a little master: "You are still too weak, and you are only at the third level of the Foundation Building Realm. If you can reach the sixth or seventh level of the Foundation Building Realm, you should be able to easily refine the 'Ice and Fire Heaven'."
Xuan Yuanhao had no choice but to coax and deceive, "If I can't successfully refine the alchemy, I can't even get in the top twelve. It doesn't matter if I say it out, but the key is that I have lost your people. After all, you are the previous host of the alchemy saint, and the inheritance of the alchemy saint was taught to me. Others will not talk about my problem, but will say it is your problem. This will affect your reputation and damage your glorious image."
Yan Ruyu indeed got into a trap, "You said that, I didn't know why I chose a weak person like you as my host. Now it's too late to regret it. Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"Actually it's not difficult. You temporarily lend me some of your spiritual power to help me successfully refine the alchemy. After that, I will practice more diligently and provide you with more spiritual power."
Because Xuan Yuanhao used Yan Ruyu's spiritual power, the aura on his body suddenly became much stronger, and ordinary practitioners may not be able to see it. However, Zhao Nankui and some experts in the Jindan realm and Yuanying realm of the county and states immediately saw the difference in the aura on Xuan Yuanhao, and they all thought that Xuan Yuanhao had taken high-level spiritual elixirs that enhance spiritual power.
With Yan Ruyu as his backing, Xuan Yuanhao's alchemy work went much smoother, and he finally successfully refined a furnace of "Ice and Fire" within the specified time.
In order to enhance the efficacy of the elixir and fight against the powerful evil and cold poison, Xuan Yuanhao did not hesitate to condense a trace of zimuth heavenly fire into the elixir.
...
At this time, two pill recipes and two boxes of spiritual pills were placed in front of President Zhao Nankui and nine referees to undergo their test.
Everyone watching the game off the court was also very curious. Was Kitano Xingchi, who had been famous for a long time, won the counterattack, or was Xuan Yuanhao from a fourth-class county, Yunwu County, who had never heard of, taking the lead?
Everything is waiting for the judgment of Zhao Nankui and the nine referees.
In fact, Zhao Nankui had already made a decision. Whether it was the quality of the elixir or the elixir, Xuan Yuanhao was far higher than Kitano Xingchi, but although Zhao Nankui was the president, he still had to respect the nine referees.
After the nine referees took a look, they also agreed that Xuan Yuanhao won.
After learning the final verdict, Kitano Seichi still refused to give up. "I accepted the verdict from President Zhao and the nine referees, and also congratulated Xuan Yuanhao. But the disciple was very curious. Can Xuan Yuanhao's spiritual pill really cure this patient? I think everyone is very curious. How about the pill test on the spot?"
Kitano Seichi took advantage of the curiosity of the people and proposed to test the pills on the spot, which actually had great selfishness. He expected President Zhao and the nine referees to make mistakes in judgment, and expected Xuan Yuanhao's pills to not cure the patients and even have accidents. In this way, he would have the opportunity to substitute the top four and advance to the final stage of the game.
Zhao Nankui really said, "Xuan Yuanhao, this pill is refined by you, and you will feed the patient on the spot to heal the patient's injuries."
As he said, after feeding the elixir into the patient's mouth, the patient was in a state of false death and could not swallow it. Therefore, Xuan Yuanhao used his five elements of spiritual power as a guide to send the elixir into the patient's dantian and helped him refine it. He saw two completely incompatible medicinal properties entering the patient's left and right half of the body. The Ziwei Tianhuo contained in the elixir took effect, gradually melting half of the frozen sea of spiritual power and the frozen meridians, and quickly melting the evil and cold energy contained in the cold poison into the fire poison, allowing them to harmonize themselves and gradually approach balance.
Although it was not completely cured, the patient's cold and fire poison had been greatly linked to the patient's cold and fire poison. Sure enough, after a cup of tea, the patient slowly recovered his vitality and woke up slowly.
At this time, Kitano Seichi wanted to dig a hole in the ground and penetrate it. He was a second-class alchemist, but he actually lost to an inferior alchemist.
Kitano Seichi regrets it very much, regretting his insistent proposal to make a round of extra game. Now it seems that this is completely paving the way for Xuan Yuanhao, advertising, and making wedding dresses.
This can only be blamed for Kitano Xingchi's back. It's not good to be in the same group with whom, but he is in the same group with Xuan Yuanhao.
"Xuan Yuanhao, today's humiliation will be doubled in the future. In the Qingzhou Zhulu in half a year, our Canglan County will definitely take good care of your Yunwu County. It is not certain that the next Qingzhou Zhulu may be held on the boundaries of your Yunwu County."
Kitano Xingchi lost the game, but he was still very tough and even threatened Xuan Yuanhao and Yunwu County.
Fortunately, Xuan Yuanhao was not scared.
In the end, Xuan Yuanhao successfully advanced to the final with the fourth place in the group without any danger.
Chapter completed!
