Long Road to Stardom

On the fifth floor, an alchemist with a pale face walked out of the alchemy room. Judging from his expression, it was obvious that he had failed the assessment to become a fifth-grade alchemist.

When he came out, he found that there were suddenly so many alchemists on the fifth floor, and his face was full of confusion.

"Are fourth-grade alchemists so common now?"

Glancing at the jade token on his waist, he saw that all of them were second- and third-grade alchemists, but there was only one fourth-grade alchemist, which made him even more confused.

"So many people are surrounding a fourth-grade alchemist. Could he be a big shot?"

He glanced at the fourth-grade alchemist.

"never seen it."

He always felt that something was wrong, so he looked in the direction the fourth-grade alchemist was looking.

"Hmm... Isn't that the alchemist trained by the Lu family?"

Looking to the side, he saw other disciples from alchemy families one after another, and he understood something in his mind.

"I guess these people just want to know which alchemy family's disciple is more skilled?"

He had seen this situation once before, always when the Alchemist Conference was about to begin.

The rankings of the alchemy families are based on the rankings achieved by the disciples at the Alchemist Conference.

The Alchemist Conference is held every three hundred years, and the alchemists who participate in the Conference cannot be over three hundred years old.

According to past experience, the ranking would not change much, but recently the Bai family in Dancheng produced a seventh-grade alchemist who was only over 200 years old, and the alchemist trained by the Wen family was murdered. It is hard not to associate the two with each other.

However, the alchemist trained by the Wen family was killed by the Lu family, with whom they were friends. This is difficult to explain.

Li Yuan's thoughts were drifting away, when suddenly the noisy sounds around him pulled him back.

"Master Qi Dan has come out."

"I remember that Master Qi Dan was the last one to go in, but he was the first one to come out."

"It seems that the Qi family is still ranked first in this ranking of alchemy families."

Soon someone retorted, "It's hard to say for sure this time. Have you forgotten Bai Zeyu from the Bai family?"

"And Su Qing who just showed up today!"

“I don’t know about the one from the Bai family, but Master Sudan is not a disciple of an alchemy family, and he won’t necessarily go to the Alchemist Conference.”

"Besides, it's hard to say whether Master Sultan can become a sixth-grade alchemist."

"I don't know if Master Sudan can become a sixth-grade alchemist, but I know you definitely can't become one."

"You. What did you say..."

"How dare you curse me like this? I will fight you..."

Just as the two were about to fight, they were quickly stopped by the people around them.

If a fight breaks out, they will probably be affected and expelled from "Danta". They also want to go to the sixth floor to see the Sultan Master.

Soon, Qi Zhengchu got the jade token that showed he had passed the test and prepared to go to the sixth floor.

Seeing this, everyone let go of the two men, turned around and went to Qi Zhengchu, asking him to take them to the sixth floor.

The two men also calmed down at this time and followed Qi Zhengchu to the sixth floor.

When Li Yuan heard these words, he quickly grasped the key points.

"Su Qing?"

"Who is this person? Why has he never heard of him?"

Seeing that everyone was not waiting for the other disciples from the alchemy families, but wanted to go to the sixth floor to see Master Sudan, this aroused Li Yuan's curiosity, and he hurriedly followed them to the sixth floor.

Lin Xing didn't know that someone would almost fight for her.

At this time, she was preparing to start refining the elixir.

When she came to the sixth floor, she didn't see any alchemists and the alchemy room was empty.

Unfortunately, when I drew the recipe, my luck was as bad as usual.

The 'Heart Protecting Pill' is the most difficult of the six-grade pills. It requires eighty-one kinds of spiritual herbs to be refined. Only one pill can be refined in one furnace, and the spiritual herbs must be at least five thousand years old.

If the refining fails, she probably won't be able to afford the compensation with all the spirit stones she has.

She remembered that when she first refined the sixth-grade elixir, her heart immediately swelled up, and she excitedly went to refine a furnace of "Heart Protecting Pills".

Not only did the refining fail, but all the spiritual herbs that were over five thousand years old were consumed.

That time, she was really heartbroken.

When she first drew the recipe for this pill, she wanted to give up.

After thinking about it, I decided to take a gamble.

Now her alchemy skills have improved a lot compared to before. As long as there are no accidents, this "Heart Protecting Pill" will be successfully refined.

This quality cannot be guaranteed.

If you want to take the assessment to become a sixth-grade alchemist, you must have at least one medium-grade pill.

This pill can only produce one, and the difficulty is directly increased. This is why Lin Xing wanted to give up as soon as she drew the pill formula. However, as long as the refining is successful, there will be no need to pay compensation, no loss, and she can also accumulate experience, so she is somewhat tempted.

If she could refine a mid-grade 'Heart Protecting Pill', wouldn't that mean she had passed the test, and everyone would be happy.

With this in mind, Lin Xing chose an alchemy room to make the elixir.

This time she did not simply comb the spiritual herbs as she did before, but instead used the 'Qingmu Jue' to carefully comb each spiritual herb.

She had just sorted out the spiritual herbs when Qi Zhengchu led many alchemists to the sixth floor.

When they reached the sixth floor, many alchemists immediately began looking for Lin Xing, and soon they saw him in an alchemy room.

An eagle-eyed alchemist immediately discovered that Lin Xing was going to refine the sixth-grade "Heart Protecting Pill" and exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone was shocked when they heard it.

The difficulty of refining this sixth-grade "Heart Protecting Pill" is comparable to that of some seventh-grade elixirs, and even higher.

If she could successfully refine the sixth-grade 'Heart-Protecting Pill', she would basically be destined to become a seventh-grade alchemist, but some alchemists were curious about how she could always draw the most difficult pill recipe.

"Is he being targeted?"

Many people have thought of this idea in their minds, but with the prestige of "Danta", they would not do such a thing.

I guess it’s because Master Sudan has bad luck.

Seeing that Master Sudan was about to start refining the elixir, the scene instantly became quiet, and everyone stared at the alchemy room.

The disciples of the alchemy family who came up from the fifth floor one after another saw that the sixth floor was so quiet, and they unconsciously slowed down their footsteps.

When he walked to the assessment area, he saw Master Sudan refining medicine in the alchemy room. He didn't even dare to breathe and stared straight at the person in the alchemy room.

Fortunately, one cannot see what is happening outside from inside the alchemy room, otherwise Lin Xing would have been shocked.

At this time, Lin Xing was fully focused on the process of refining the elixir.

The process of refining the sixth-grade "Heart Protecting Pill" is extremely complicated, the difficulty of refining is extremely high, and the requirements for the alchemist are also extremely harsh.

She calmed herself down, familiarized herself with the furnace, and read over the precautions required on the recipe before she began to refine the pill.

In the alchemy room, the alchemy fire was burning fiercely, emitting a blazing light.

Lin Xing's technique was very skillful, but she still carefully controlled the pill fire and threw each spiritual herb into it one by one.

As the elixir fire burns, the essence of the spiritual herbs is gradually extracted and forms a liquid state.
