Carrying the identifier from the interstellar to the world of immortal cultivation

After Sui An pulled a few clusters of Lieque fire to the bottom of the furnace, merged them with the main fire, and increased the firepower to refine the elixir together, Fan Tuo had already controlled the flying sword to cut off the vines that were wrapped around Shi Xu's right foot. However, as soon as he cut off the vines on one side, new ones emerged on the other side, one after another, and it was impossible to cut them all off.

"We can't go on like this!"

Sui An swallowed a handful of soul-replenishing pills and a mind-clearing pill, then checked the pills in the furnace. According to the normal process, all the spiritual herbs should have turned into spiritual liquid at this time, and under the control of her spiritual consciousness and the baking of Lieque, they were gradually taking shape.

But now, not to mention the problem of the uniformity of the spiritual liquid, even 30% of the spiritual herbs have not been completely transformed into spiritual liquid. Not to mention that the progress is obviously lagging behind, according to the current situation, if it is not remedied as soon as possible, even if the pill is finally made, the success rate will not be too high.

"Does Junior Sister Sui have any ideas?" Shi Xu also swallowed a handful of soul-replenishing pills and took the time to ask.

Fan Tuo controlled the flying sword and began to chop the grass vines. Although his sword was fast, the grass vines grew also fast, and faster and faster.

"Senior Sister, they're growing too fast, and it's not just a matter of rapid growth. The most important thing is that they can break and then grow again. How about... I set them on fire?"

"There's already fire for alchemy here. There's one earth fire and one Lie Que. Why would we need to set another fire?"

As Sui An spoke, she took advantage of the fact that the Lieque Fire was still relatively docile and quickly made a hand gesture. The pile of cut grass vines closest to her was instantly moved into the Lieque Fire under the furnace. With a "bang", the fire suddenly increased in intensity, but in an instant it returned to its previous state, seemingly unchanged.

But when Sui An took a closer look, he found that the firepower was more concentrated. Although the change was so subtle that it was almost undetectable, there was indeed a change.

"Senior Sister, how is it? Can it continue to burn?" Fan Tuo asked hurriedly.

Although she didn't know what changes would happen next, the first change was for the better. At the moment, if she only relied on Fan Tuo's sword, she would not be able to eliminate the grass vines that were spawned by the formation. Eventually, these grass vines would break through Fan Tuo's sword, bind her and Senior Brother Shi's hands and feet, and prevent the spiritual herbs in the furnace from becoming pills by the end of the finals.

So, Sui An gritted his teeth and said, "Burn!"

Upon receiving the order, Fan Tuo immediately controlled the flying sword to chop the still growing grass vines, while pinching the magic formula to split the surrounding broken grass into two, one part was moved under Shi Xu's alchemy furnace, and the other part was moved under Sui'an's alchemy furnace.

Without the broken grass to regenerate, Fan Tuo only had to deal with the newly grown grass vines. He finally felt that he would not die suddenly from overdrawing his spiritual energy.

An hour passed, and Sui An checked the situation in the alchemy furnace again. She saw round pills slowly turning at the bottom of the furnace, shining with brilliant light. One, two, three... a total of eight pills, four of medium quality and four of low quality. Sui An was delighted, but she suppressed her joy and made the last handprint on the alchemy furnace. The handprint's brilliant light enveloped the entire furnace. After the light gradually dissipated, she recited the incantation and opened the furnace to take out the pills.

The moment the furnace lid was opened, the fragrance of elixir filled the small space. Fan Tuo and Shi Xu naturally noticed it, but they were too busy chopping grass and vines while the other was refining the elixir at a critical point to pay attention.

However, the judges above were always paying attention to everything that was happening below.

There were forty groups of alchemists, and each group had different interference formations in their spaces. The Jinling Sect's was infinitely growing and continuously growing grass vines, while the Lingque Sect's Hu Zhuiyu and three's small alchemy spaces were small hills rising from the ground. Although the hills were not big, compared to the small alchemy spaces, if the reaction was not timely enough and the blocking measures were not effective enough, those small hills that sprung up like mushrooms after a rain would push the alchemists and their furnaces out of this small space, and the underground fire would be covered by the falling rocks from the hills.

Another example is the Chuyun Sect's alchemist team headed by Mu Yan. Although they are on flat ground at the moment, they have to endure the wind force that is like a strong gale from high altitude. The ground fire at the bottom of the alchemy furnace and the fire power of the fire source stone are swinging back and forth under the influence of the strong wind. Even if the alchemist tries his best to control it with his spiritual consciousness, it is far from achieving the normal effect.

In addition to the small hills rising from the ground and the directionless strong winds, other small alchemy spaces also have various formations such as volleys of arrows, spraying water dragons, spinning fireballs, and ice sealing souls. There are even a few alchemy spaces that combine two or even three formations. The grass and vines are growing wildly on this side, and fireballs are flying on the other side. The grass and vines are burned, the fire started, the cultivators are unable to take care of themselves, and the alchemy furnace is unevenly stressed. There have been several incidents of furnace explosions since the beginning of alchemy.

Looking at the busyness of the participating teams below, the judges sitting above watched seriously, but shook their heads and sighed from time to time.

"Although the rules of this final have changed, the performance of the young players below has been truly unsatisfactory. Alas, this is what a talent shortage looks like!"

These words came from Tao Yueqing, a judge of the Chuyun Sect. Like Kuang Wei, he was a cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage and was also one of the new judges in the finals.

"Fellow Daoist Yueqing, this is too serious. After all, the rules of this final are unprecedented. It's normal to be unprepared. We all anticipated this situation, didn't we?"

Master Chi Zhu consoled him with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Chi Zhu, this is wrong. They can refine pills like this without any preparation. It's already been an hour, and not a single pill has been made. And look at the mess below. Those small formations won't harm their lives at all. They are just minor disturbances. Some people were even injured. I don't know how they made it to the finals. People like them don't even understand the most basic spiritual energy circulation in cultivation, let alone refining pills!"

Tao Yueqing had a very sharp tongue and spoke without mercy. With her cultivation level being one major realm lower than his, she directly confronted the Jindan cultivator Chi Zhu Zhenren.

Although Master Chi Zhu and Wanderer Rufeng had been arguing with each other happily before, he was not angry when Tao Yueqing refuted him in front of all the judges. He just casually agreed, "Fellow Daoist Yueqing has a point," and said no more.

However, Master Fang Xing looked unhappy. Although all the alchemist teams were disturbed and their pills were refined in a disorganized manner, the number of teams that were actually injured by the formation was less than one hand, and one of them was the alchemist team of their Danfu Sect. The other teams were either from small sects, or from large sects and families, but those sects and families did not have elders sitting in the judging position. So in the eyes of Master Fang Xing, Tao Yueqing's words were not mocking anyone else, but their Danfu Sect and Master Fang Xing.

"Friend Yueqing, you are now a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, so the formation below naturally seems simple and clear to you. However, I wonder if you have ever tried to refine pills in this environment when you were still in the Qi Refining Stage?"

Master Fang Xing paused as he spoke, as if realizing something. "Yes, I forgot. Your sect doesn't seem to have such a good alchemy room. Otherwise, I would have participated in the last Immortal Sect Competition, but I didn't see it. Or maybe your sect... has one, but hasn't used it yet?"

Tao Yueqing looked at Master Fang Xing and narrowed her eyes slightly. He was quite handsome, but when she narrowed her eyes, a hint of gloom appeared in his handsomeness.

The other judges remained silent and did not want to participate in their conversation.

"Fellow Daoist Fang Xing does value talent, but I wonder if Senior Yun Gu understands..."

"Huh? Someone has succeeded in making a pill!" A voice interrupted Tao Yueqing, and everyone looked down hurriedly after hearing it.
