A gift returned ten thousandfold: I am the number one licker in all realms!

It has to be said that Luo Xin's actions were quite disappointing.

At first, most of the audience's attention was focused on Luo Xing, because Luo Xing was the first place winner in the last competition, so they spontaneously assumed that Luo Xing would definitely be able to refine an extraordinary pill. However, now the other alchemists' furnaces were showing some unusual phenomena.

Even the worst alchemist can concoct some fancy-looking things that appear extraordinary, showing they have some skill. But for Luo Xing, it just doesn't seem interesting at all.

To put it nicely, Luo Xing is refining medicine; to put it bluntly, it looks like an old lady in the village tending a fire.

This isn't refining any kind of elixir; it's clearly just starting a fire.

After watching for a short time, many viewers gradually became disappointed with Luo Xing and even began to ridicule him.

"What's wrong with this kid? Does he even have anything? Look at what other people are doing, and then look at this kid."

"Yeah, I just auctioned off a lot of good stuff from this kid. I hope he doesn't make me lose it all?"

"You really can't judge a book by its cover, and you can't measure the sea with a bucket. This kid is actually worse than we expected."

"Look at that old man surnamed Bai, Bai Laosan. Although his grades were bad last year and they're still bad this year, at least there was some movement in his furnace. What's wrong with this kid? Why isn't there any movement in his furnace at all?"

"Is this kid just trying to swindle people by coming here to participate in the Alchemist Conference? We feel like he doesn't have anything to offer and is just trying to cheat and deceive people."

……

The constant mockery paid little attention to Luo Xing; he only focused on continuing to refine the pills in his hands. He even had a small servant tending a fire beside him, seemingly burning firewood, making it impossible to understand what he was doing or what kind of pills he was refining.

Seeing this, Bai Laosan could no longer hold back and anxiously shouted at Luo Xing.

"Young Master Luo Xing, Young Master Luo Xing, what's wrong with you? Have you been properly refining pills?"

"Look at yours, there's not a single accident. Could something have happened? If it's not working, you'd better quickly refine another pill."

"There's still plenty of time. You can refine another pill in no time. Don't give up on yourself."

In Bai Laosan's opinion, Luo Xing's alchemy skills were not that bad; he simply thought of giving up because he saw that the pills refined by others were too powerful.

He even considered giving up on himself, no longer wanting to refine pills, and even wanting to withdraw from the competition.

Luo Xing smiled as he listened to the old man's words. It seemed that everyone had really misunderstood him!

However, this is indeed easily misunderstood. In the early stages, the pill he refined was completely unremarkable. But in the later stages, it would astonish everyone, showing them what true god-level skill was. A celestial phenomenon occurred during the pill refining process.

The second young master, who was not far away, looked over and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, Luo Xing, you're not refining pills at all, you're just gathering firewood!"

"If you ask me, you shouldn't bother refining any pills anymore. Just go home. With your skills, you can't even produce a single celestial phenomenon. How can this be considered pill refining? Hurry up and go home. Go do what you're supposed to do. Your second young master, I'm in a pretty good mood today. If I win the championship of this Alchemist Competition, I might not hold your previous mistakes against you. I might even let you off the hook."

However, Luo Xing only glanced at the Second Young Master and didn't say anything more, his eyes carrying a hint of mockery.

"Old Master Bai, please rest assured, I have a clear understanding of what I'm doing. The things I refine will definitely amaze everyone."

"As for what you said about giving up on yourself, hahaha, these guys aren't enough to make me give up on myself. There's nothing that could make me, Luo Xing, give up on myself."

"Half of the time has already passed over there. In another half hour, you will know what kind of pill I have refined. It will definitely surprise everyone here."

Upon hearing this, Bai Laosan couldn't help but shake his head and sigh heavily. If there really was some extraordinary phenomenon, wouldn't it have appeared long ago? Why wait until the very end? Bai Laosan had seen many pills like this before, but he really didn't know what kind of pill could produce such a phenomenon.

The three elders on the lighthouse looked at the alchemy furnace on Luo Xing's side and felt that something was wrong.

Although there were no extraordinary phenomena or celestial phenomena, and it seemed quite ordinary, there was something strange about it.

"I said, do you guys feel a familiar scent coming from that furnace? But I just can't remember what it is. It's just so familiar."

"That's right, I felt that aura too. That ancient aura seemed to be able to devour everything in the world. It seemed to be able to suppress everything in heaven and earth, making people feel awe and tremble involuntarily. It was so intoxicating."

"What exactly is that kid Luo Xing practicing? Why does it make me tremble from the inside out?"

"Yes, yes, yes, did you feel it too? It wasn't said to be like this, but I also felt that this aura is powerful enough to make people tremble, it just hasn't shown itself yet."

Even the alchemists, including the vice-dean of the guild, sensed this aura. This powerful and ancient aura seemed capable of impacting them. However, because they were so sensitive and familiar with it, they were able to perceive some of it.

Members of other unions, however, could not feel this powerful yet ancient and familiar aura at all.

The vice presidents of the two city labor unions couldn't help but look down at Luo Xing, the boy they had been watching from the very beginning. Now it seemed they hadn't really seen this filial son before.

Although it's not clear at the moment, he's pretty sure this kid is probably the champion of this alchemist competition.

The elders turned to look at what was happening there. It was a magnificent spectacle, with strange phenomena occurring frequently in the heavens and earth, such as the moon rising over the sea, lotuses blooming everywhere, and fire phoenixes appearing.

Those Heavenly Emperors are all terrifying one after another. Even Luo Qingqing, the proud saintess of their Alchemist Guild, has awakened, creating an extraordinary celestial phenomenon.

Luo Qingqing couldn't help but cheer and burst into laughter.

"Haha, it's an image of a phoenix rising from the ashes, symbolizing the phoenix's rebirth."

"It's done, it's done! I've finally done it! I've finally become a master! And elders, I haven't let you down."

"I might still have a chance to win the championship in this alchemy competition, or at the very least, I can get a runner-up position. Let's see who can look down on our Alchemist Guild this time."

Luo Qing's imagery was extremely terrifying. It seemed as if a gigantic fire phoenix was circling around him.

The flames emanating from the phoenix seemed capable of devouring everything in the world, a sight that made the surrounding spectators swallow hard and shout in excitement.

"She truly lives up to her reputation as an alchemist and the guild's most outstanding saintess. It seems this little girl's talent is astonishingly strong! Unprecedented and unparalleled."

Hearing such praise, Luo Qingqing couldn't stop smiling. He wondered what kind of elixir others should offer to win him over.

But when he turned to look at the second young master beside him, his face turned deathly pale.

"What? You actually managed to do that? The moon rises over the sea."

It's important to understand that the imagery of a bright moon rising over the sea is far more powerful than his imagery of a fire phoenix. If the imagery of a bright moon rising over the sea could be unleashed, it would mean that the pill he refined was close to reaching the eighth-grade quality, only slightly lacking.

The reason Luo Qing judged that the quality of his "Bright Moon Rising Over the Sea" was poor, only reaching the eighth rank with a slight improvement, was because the moon in "Bright Moon Rising Over the Sea" was not as bright as it appeared in ancient texts.

The moon rising over the sea only shone faintly, not dazzlingly, which is why Luo Qingqing was able to make that judgment. Even so, the imagery she unleashed was enough to surpass his.

"Saintess Luo Qingqing, it seems that if I win the championship of this alchemy competition, this 'Bright Moon Rising Over the Sea' will be enough to devour your Fire Phoenix."

"There's still a gap between us, hahaha. Let's wait until next year. Let me see if your alchemy skills have improved by then."
