Chapter 816: The two cauldrons of yin and yang
Xia qingchen naturally knew about the ancient spiritual pill. This pill did indeed have the miraculous ability to recall the memories of his ancestors.
However, it had extremely high requirements for the refiner.
Although the ancient spiritual pill was only a quasi-spiritual pill, it could only be successfully refined by someone who was at least a leading Alchemist.
The so-called alchemy Titans were existences that were higher than alchemy grandmasters. These people could easily refine spirit pill-level medicine.
Grandmaster Hong Chen and the other twoâs pill refining skills were still far from being able to refine ancient spiritual pills.
If he were to forcefully refine it and fail, the consequences would be dire.
âOh? Does Grandmaster Xia have any advice?â Grandmaster Hong Chen laughed sinisterly, his eyes filled with disdain.
Xia qingchen leaned against the stone pillar and calmly said, ââIn addition to your lack of skill, there are also problems with the materials you found. Some of them donât belong to the recipe of the ancient pill.â
âIf Iâm not wrong, the pill formula was originally incomplete, and you guys took it for granted to complete it, right?â
Hearing this, the other two grandmasters âfaces froze.
It really was like that!
When they discovered the recipe of the ancient spirit pill, only the main ingredients could be seen. There were also a few missing secondary ingredients. They had analyzed and concluded this based on their own experience.
Grandmaster Hong Chenâs face was expressionless. âIâm not good enough? Hehe, great Grandmaster Xia, why donât you look for a Grandmaster who is better than me in the cool territory?â
âOr do you really think youâre a Big Shot?â her eyes were filled with contempt.
Upon hearing the sarcasm in her words, Xia qingchenâs expression became relaxed. âAs an Alchemist, itâs best to be humble and cautious. With your personality, youâre not suitable to develop in the path of alchemy.â
The one who could truly achieve great things was someone like Yao buhui who was so dedicated.
Grandmaster Hong Chen placed too much importance on worldly fame and fortune, so it was difficult for him to achieve great things in this path.
Before he finished speaking, he heard a slightly cold voice, ââXia qianqi, youâve crossed the line.â
Xia qingchen looked over in the direction of the voice. It was a young man in embroidered clothes beside the Golden sedan. His eyes were deep and cold, and his face was filled with anger.
He was no other than the second Prince.
The second Prince couldnât get away with the sudden change in the military Palace.
His eyelids drooped slightly, and he looked at Xia qingchen with a lowered gaze.âWhat right do you have to comment on Grandmaster Hong Chen? To put it bluntly, you canât even compare to a single hair on Grandmaster Hong Chenâs head!â
These words werenât just unpleasant to hear, they were extremely unpleasant.
The dignified second Prince actually said such words in public. The dissatisfaction-no, the hostility-he felt toward Xia qingchen was clearly visible.
Xia qingchen had forcefully killed Yu guitian and was considered to be going against the second Prince. It would be strange if he wasnât hostile.
Xia qingchen didnât think much of it. if the second Prince isnât blind, you should be able to see that itâs Grandmaster Hong Chen who wants me to give him some pointers. Iâm giving him some serious pointers, but youâre saying that Iâm overestimating my abilities.
âAs the second Prince, can you handle things fairly and not side with your own people?â Xia qingchen was hinting at something.
The second Princeâs eyes flashed with killing intent. How dare he criticize him in public?
But when he saw the Golden carriage beside him, he quickly calmed down.
Arguing in public would only make his father more and more disappointed in him, and the loss would outweigh the gain.
It wouldnât be too late to deal with this minor character Xia qingchen when he had the chance.
âIâve learned a lot.â He said this calmly and continued to drink his tea as if nothing had happened.
Grandmaster Hong Chen was even angrier at the sight of the second Princeâs defeat. He put on a fake smile. Grandmaster Xiaâs standards are high. He doesnât think much of me. Why donât you refine this pill? â
Who knew that Xia qingchen would reply without hesitation, ââAlright! If I were to refine it, I would have a 20% chance of success.â
Even though he had yet to reach the level of a leading fighter, he was experienced and had a certain chance of success if he tried to make it.
These words caused Grandmaster Hong Chen to be at a loss for words. Xia qingchen really dared to take over!
At this moment, a few impatient voices came from the Golden palanquin, â Xia qingchen, an outsider like you shouldnât say anything more. Grandmaster Hong Chen, letâs begin the pill refinement!
âMen, bring out the double Dragon cauldron,â Prince Liang said after a pause.
Double Dragon cauldrons?
Grandmaster Hong Chen and yaowang were both excited.
There were two things in the cool realm that people who practiced alchemy dreamed of-the double Dragon cauldrons!
The double Dragon cauldrons were the two divine cauldrons made by the first king Liang by collecting all the gengjin in the world. They were divided into yang cauldrons and Yin cauldrons.
The secret medicine refined from this cauldron was usually of high quality. If one was lucky, they might even have the opportunity to raise the secret Medicineâs grade to the level of a quasi-spirit medicine.
However, the two cauldrons had always been hidden in the Liang Princeâs residence, and outsiders were not allowed to see them.
Prince Liang must have felt worried after hearing Xia qingchenâs doubts. Hence, he changed his mind at the last minute and bestowed them with the Twin Dragon cauldrons to refine the pills.
âMany thanks, Liang Wang!â The two of them thanked him excitedly.
With the double Dragon cauldrons, they would be able to refine better elixirs.
Soon, two elixir cauldrons, one black and one white, with a Dragon carved on them, were sent in.
Grandmaster Hong Chen chose the black yang cauldron, while yaowang chose the White Yin cauldron.
Caressing the Yang cauldron, Grandmaster Hong Chenâs lips curled up. âYao buhui, the Liang Prince has given you such a generous gift, you canât let him down. You have to refine a decent secret medicine.â
Yao buhui was unmoved and was already fully focused on refining the pill.
Everyone looked over and secretly praised him. This was the attitude that a true Alchemist should have.
He was unlike Grandmaster Hong Chen, who had been jabbering on and on in order to show off his superiority.
âHehe.â no matter how stupid a bird flies, itâs still a stupid bird. Grandmaster Hong Chen snorted. itâs hard for it to achieve anything.
She waved her hand and took a deep breath. âLetâs begin!â
Both sides began to refine pills at the same time.
The people present naturally began to compare the two sides.
Grandmaster Hong Chenâs techniques were much more experienced. Many of the ingredients were thrown into the furnace after a glance, and his every move had the air of a Grandmaster.
On the other hand, Yao buhui had to hold every single ingredient in his hands, weighing them over and over before deciding on the amount to throw into the pill furnace.
âWhy is yaowangâs alchemy skill dropping instead of improving?â One of the palace Masters who had seen Yao buhui refine pills frowned.
âMm! It was a regression! Back then, his level was almost the same as great Grandmaster Hong Chenâs. The only difference was that he could not refine quasi-spiritual pills. How come he has become so unfamiliar with us after so many years?â
They didnât notice that every time Yao buhui picked up a material, his eyes would flash with an unnoticeable golden light.
Half an hour later, the materials from both sides had been put into the pill furnace.
The next step was to control the alchemy fire, which was the most important of all. The key to forming the elixir was to control the fire well or badly.
The alchemy fire under the cauldrons of both parties immediately burned fiercely, causing the materials inside to crackle.
Waves of green smoke slowly came out from the smoke holes of the pill furnace.
Compared to Grandmaster Hong Chenâs yang cauldron, it emitted a very thin smoke.
However, Yao buhuiâs Yin cauldron emitted extremely thick black smoke, which was both pungent and blinding. In a short while, the entire Taihe Palace Hall was covered in a thick black fog, and many people sneezed.
