Invincible Martial God System

Chapter 73 Alchemy

Although Leng Yun refines medicine entirely through the system, he still has to put on a show in front of outsiders.

Otherwise, if he absorbed the medicinal herbs and then pulled out a pill the next second, even a child would wonder how that could happen.

Therefore, he summoned the system's alchemy furnace, intending to demonstrate to everyone how a normal person refines pills.

"Boom!"

With the sound of a drum, the competition officially began.

At the same time, Wang Yinghao and Zhang Tianyun mysteriously appeared in the square, secretly exchanging a glance with Ye Buluo, indicating that they had made the arrangements.

No one in the audience paid them any attention; they were all watching the two people on stage with their eyes glued to them.

Although fourth-grade pills are of average quality, they are quite complex to refine.

With a flick of his hand, the black-clad alchemist unleashed a burst of green flames that gathered beneath the alchemy furnace.

Judging from the color of the flames, they should not be ordinary, and crackling sounds can be heard from the flames from time to time, as if the flames are highly poisonous.

Manipulating flames and making them an integral part of oneself is an essential skill for an alchemist.

Not to be outdone, Leng Yun moved his hand, and a ball of yellow flame shot into the alchemy furnace in front of him.

Leng Yun's Five Elements Fire is the ancestor of all fires in the world, and ordinary flames will naturally retreat when they see it.

As soon as the yellow flames appeared, the black-clad man's green flames immediately weakened considerably, appearing quite frightened, trembling slightly, almost extinguished.

It's obvious to everyone that Leng Yun has won again this time.

The black-clad alchemist looked rather grim, but he increased his true energy, making the green flames burn even brighter.

The temperature in the square immediately rose significantly, and the coolness of the morning was no longer felt. People at the front were even starting to sweat.

The first step in making medicine is to extract all the medicinal materials.

The first medicinal herb needed for Hydrocotyle is dragon's beard grass.

Even the black-clad alchemist had a considerable failure rate when refining this fourth-grade pill, so he was very careful with every step.

Although he is usually arrogant and cold, it is clear that he is indeed very skilled in alchemy and his techniques are proficient.

Leng Yun, on the other hand, seemed rather carefree, because he relied entirely on the system for alchemy; he only needed to throw the herbs in and then he didn't have to worry about it.

Leng Yun grabbed a green dragon's beard grass and threw it into the alchemy furnace.

"Hmph! I thought you were something special, but you're just a greenhorn. With such clumsy hands, how could you possibly refine a fourth-grade pill?" the black-clad alchemist sneered inwardly.

To his surprise, yellow flames quickly enveloped the entire dragon beard grass in Leng Yun's alchemy furnace, causing it to gradually wither and its green color to deepen.

Immediately afterwards, the entire dragon's beard grass rapidly contracted into a ball, and gradually a little bit of green liquid seeped out from the dragon's beard grass.

The liquid gradually gathered into a single spot, eventually becoming the size of a water droplet—this is the essence of the enormous dragon's beard grass.

The original dragon's beard grass had gradually been burned to ashes.

At this moment, the flames in the alchemy furnace split into two balls. One ball surrounded the green liquid and floated on one side of the furnace, maintaining a high temperature.

The other group suddenly intensified, burning the dregs of the dragon's beard grass to ashes without leaving a trace.

The advantage of doing this is that there is no need to specially clean up the dregs of the medicine, which not only saves time but also reduces the damage to the essence. Only a great alchemist can do this.

Even the black-clad alchemist couldn't clean up the dregs with flames.

He looked at Leng Yun's technique with some surprise. The other party had already successfully extracted the first essence, while his own dragon beard grass had only just begun to ooze liquid.

"How is this possible? Could this Leng Yun be hiding his true abilities?" the black-clad alchemist wondered.

At this moment, Leng Yun had already thrown the second type of leech demon core into the alchemy furnace.

Although the surrounding audience didn't understand the intricacies of the situation, laymen watch the spectacle while experts see the details. They saw that Leng Yun was faster than the black-clad alchemist, and they burst into enthusiastic applause.

The leech demon core is a first-grade demon core, which is relatively common. It is yellow in color. After being thrown into the alchemy furnace, it is immediately surrounded by flames and gradually melts and condenses in less than half a minute.

Soon, the leech core also turned into a drop of yellow liquid, which was also enveloped in a ball of fire and floated around the green liquid that had been there before.

At this moment, the black-clad alchemist had just refined the first green liquid, and its volume was not as large as Leng Yun's.

The difference in skill between the two is obvious; if this continues, it seems the black-clad alchemist is going to lose the competition.

"Hmph, if it weren't for your flames, how could you possibly be faster than me!" the black-clad alchemist said resentfully.

Even Ye Buluo, who was standing next to him, was very surprised. He did not expect that Leng Yun was such a powerful alchemist.

"I shouldn't have gone against him." Ye Buluo regretted it a little. He knew what the consequences were of offending an alchemist.

But now that he's done it, he only has one path left: to kill Leng Yun.

Suddenly, the black-clad alchemist made a small movement inside his sleeve, and a tiny black shadow flew out from his sleeve and landed imperceptibly in Leng Yun's pile of medicinal herbs.

Even Leng Yun, though he sensed something, didn't see anything unusual and thought he was seeing things.

Next, Leng Yun put the third red medicinal herb into the alchemy furnace, and flames instantly enveloped the red color.

Half a second later, Leng Yun suddenly sensed something was wrong. A kind of poisonous gas was faintly emanating from the alchemy furnace!

Because the cold clouds and the flames were connected, the poison gas entered the cold clouds' body through the flames.

Instantly, he felt a sharp pain in his body and his face turned extremely pale.

"What's wrong with Young Master Yun?"

"Could it be that the pills have backfired?"

The people below also noticed Leng Yun's unusual behavior.

It is possible for an alchemist to be harmed by a pill, but a pill capable of harming its master must be at least grade seven or higher.

Although fourth-grade pills are complex, they are not dangerous.

Leng Yun glanced sideways at the black-clad alchemist and noticed that the latter gave a barely perceptible sneer.

All of this was a conspiracy by the black-clad alchemist. The black shadow he just released was a kind of witchcraft from the Linglong Pavilion, which was extremely powerful.

"Haha, you actually got backfired by a fourth-grade pill, and you still have the nerve to call yourself an alchemist?" Ye Buluo led the mockery.

Leng Yun ignored the mockery, closed his eyes, and focused all the flames in his body into his meridians, even though the black poison gas had already spread throughout his body.

However, the Five Elements Fire can completely burn away this poisonous gas.

Even so, Leng Yun still wasted a lot of time, allowing the Five Elements Fire to circle around his body once.

By the time Leng Yun had completely dispelled the poison, the black-clad alchemist had caught up and begun refining the fourth medicinal ingredient.
