"After what happened in front of the Lingque Sect's mountain gate, who wouldn't know about the Jinling Sect? Even if you don't know it at first, you'll find out after asking around!"
The one who answered him was not the monk who spoke at the beginning, but another monk who was watching the fun.
"Fellow Daoist, are you referring to...the incident where the Jinling Sect's group was welcomed into the sect by Fellow Daoist Chebai?"
"That's exactly what happened!"
"Oh, even if a female cultivator from the Jinling Sect wins the favor of Daoist Fellow Chebai, so what? It doesn't change the fact that the Jinling Sect is just a small, down-and-out sect. They always like to talk about how glorious their sect was in the past, but what's the point of all that glory? Who made them have such a troublesome master? Not only did he go out to train on his own, but he also provoked a powerful cultivator, who eventually came to collect the debt. The entire sect lost everything, even half of Jinyu Mountain."
The one who spoke this time was the young monk who had first made sarcastic remarks.
"Jin Yushan? Could it be that fellow Daoist is a disciple of the Yuling Sect?"
The young male cultivator did not expect that the middle-aged male cultivator had guessed his origins so quickly. He was not wearing the sect's Taoist robes today.
He glanced at the middle-aged male cultivator and nodded, "Exactly. Daoist friend, do you know Jinyu Mountain?"
"Of course I know. Jinyu Mountain runs north-south and is rich in spiritual energy. The Jinling Sect and Yuling Sect are on the east and west sides respectively. The relationship between these two sects... used to be sometimes good and sometimes bad, but ever since the Jinling Sect used their side of Jinyu Mountain to pay off a debt a hundred years ago, the two sects have had little interaction. But I heard..."
The middle-aged male cultivator paused for a moment and glanced at the young male cultivator. "It's nothing. If you are a cultivator from the Jade Spirit Sect, it's normal for you to look down on the Gold Spirit Sect. After all, they were evenly matched before, but now the Gold Spirit Sect is far inferior to the Jade Spirit Sect."
The young man was about to say something when he heard a voice from the front, "The Alchemist team participating in the finals, please enter the arena!"
When everyone looked, they saw that the door of Alchemy Room No. 14 was slowly opening.
The only ones who can enter the finals venue this time are the forty alchemist teams participating in the finals and the eight judges. Other spectators are not allowed to enter and can only watch from outside through the teleportation mirror.
The underground fire in the No. 14 alchemy room is not smaller than that in the No. 20 room, but there is no viewing area. There are also one hundred clusters of underground fire, but its layout is a bit strange. Unlike the No. 20 alchemy room, all the underground fires are arranged in a circle. The layout of the underground fire here seems to be irregular, but if you observe carefully, you will find that it has its own set of operating rules, which are staggered, influence each other, and even complement each other.
"The finals of the Qi Refining Stage Alchemist Competition, refining Xiaoyu Pills, Qingshen Pills, and Juqi Pills!"
The deacon's voice was transmitted to the ears of every alchemist and assistant present through the thunder note.
Sure enough, there was another kind of elixir. Fortunately, the Qi Gathering Pill was not a special elixir, and they often refined it on a daily basis.
"There are hundreds of earth fires in the alchemy room. Each team of alchemists can choose one at will, and use three kinds of elixirs, three furnaces for each, for a total of five hours."
As soon as the deacon finished speaking, everyone was a little surprised, thinking that the time given for alchemy seemed too ample. However, more time was a good thing, so everyone stopped hesitating and quickly began to select the earth fire. In fact, it was called selecting because everyone didn't know whether each bunch of earth fire was different, so they just walked towards the earth fire that they liked.
Sui An quickly surveyed all the earth fires in the alchemy room and asked doubtfully, "Brother Shi, besides the Spirit Gathering Formation, what other formations can assist in alchemy?"
"There are many, such as the Five Elements Circulation Formation, the Wood and Fire Mutual Generation Formation, etc. However, these formations are relatively complex and the materials required are also relatively expensive. Most alchemists don't use them. What's wrong?"
"I discovered that formations were set up around these underground fires, and the formations set up around each cluster of underground fires were not exactly the same. This is completely different from Alchemy Room No. 20."
Although there is also a formation in Alchemy Room No. 20, the formation is simple and clear. It is just an ordinary soundproof formation. There is not even a spirit gathering formation. Because there is a large spirit gathering formation outside the entire alchemy room, all the alchemy rooms in the room are rich in spiritual energy, and there is no need to set up another spirit gathering formation.
"Senior Brother Shi, are these formations the Five Elements Circulation Formation and the Wood and Fire Generation Formation?" Fan Tuo asked.
Shi Xu glared at him, "I didn't even notice there was a formation here!"
Fan Tuo shut up. Well, it seemed that he had too high expectations of Senior Brother Shi.
Shi Xu was furious at his expression of "I overestimated my senior brother", but at this moment Sui An had already walked to a fire pit and said to the two of them: "Let's choose this one!"
"Is this formation the most powerful? As expected of a major sect, they actually have so many auxiliary formations deployed within the large spirit gathering formation. This is truly a grand undertaking!"
Shi Xu sighed, thinking that he might be able to achieve an 80% success rate in refining the Xiaoyu Pill this time. If he could produce three more mid-grade pills, it would not be a dream for him to be on the Immortal List.
Sui An shook his head, "I think this formation is the most gentle."
mild?
They don't want to be gentle now! It's the finals, why should they be gentle? What they need is a surge of spiritual energy. Only in this way can they unleash their greatest potential as alchemists and refine pills that exceed their usual level.
Now is the time to sprint, not to play it safe.
"Brother Shi, you don't understand the formation, so let's just follow Senior Sister's instructions, right?"
Sui An also looked at Shi Xu. The formations here looked very strange. Based on Sui An's current attainments in formations, in her eyes these formations were incomplete and would not have any effect even if they were activated.
But she has a plug-in, that is Sui Dong. Although its strength now cannot be compared with its heyday, but combined with the interstellar era identifier, it has returned from the interstellar through the space-time channel to Yunchuan, where the spiritual energy is rich. Sui Dong's perception of the surrounding environment is now much more sensitive and subtle than that of its new owner Sui An.
So when Sui An was still wondering why these remnants of the formation were set up in the alchemy room, and wondering if the previous formation had not been completely removed, it told Sui An, "I guess these formations will be activated when you officially refine the elixir, because some of the positions are equipped with invisibility talismans."
Even if Sui An cannot detect all the general invisibility talismans, she will always find something. Since she didn't find it, Shi Xu, Fan Tuo and she observed other alchemist teams, and they didn't seem to notice that some positions were hidden. Look at the earth fire they chose... Tsk tsk, maybe she could finish refining the pill early and watch the fun.
So this is not an ordinary invisible talisman. Just as Shi Xu said, it is worthy of being a big sect. With only one alchemy room, they can set up so many formations, and there are also high-level talismans to assist.
Although Shi Xu had some opinions about Sui An's choice of a "gentle" formation, as Fan Tuo said, he didn't know much about formations. In that case, he would just listen to his junior sister.
"Three kinds of pills, or as planned?"
Sui An Fantuo nodded, "The original plan."
The original plan was that no matter how many kinds of elixirs were required in the finals, they would all be made by Shi Xu and Sui An. One of them would use Earth Fire and the other would use Lie Que, and Fan Tuo would assist in making the elixirs. This was also Fan Tuo's own request. He felt that his alchemy skills were not enough to support him to make elixirs alone in such an important event as the Immortal Gate Competition, and this was the finals, so in normal competitions he would only assist in making the elixirs.
