Chapter 2720
byLooking at it, Ji Ying was slightly startled because he was horrified to find that the purity of the medicinal liquid condensed by Yang Kai seemed to be no weaker than his own…
And what shocked him even more was that the timing and sequence of Yang Kai’s input of the spiritual medicines were actually exactly the same as his own.
A kind of spiritual pill didn’t have only one pill formula.
Every alchemist has a different understanding of the art of alchemy, and their personal preferences and abilities are also different. This has led to some slight differences among alchemists in the process of refining spirit pills. For example, the order and timing of the input of spirit medicines.
Some alchemists think it is better to input this kind of spirit medicine first, while others think it is better to input that kind of spirit medicine first. This has also created a situation where there are multiple prescriptions for one kind of spirit pill. Perhaps even the medicinal materials needed are not the same.
A prescription does not only contain the materials needed for alchemy. A complete prescription not only includes the medicinal materials but also the refining process. It can be said that a prescription is equivalent to a complete alchemy instruction manual.
This is the preciousness of a prescription and also the crystallization of the alchemists’ hard work.
And now, Ji Ying was surprised to find that Yang Kai’s method and process of refining this Emperor Yuan Pill were astonishingly similar to his own, almost as if they were carved out of the same template.
In other words, the Emperor Yuan Pill prescription that Yang Kai mastered was the same as the one he knew.
How is this possible?
The Emperor Yuan Pill is a spirit pill used by Emperor Venerable Realm cultivators to restore their Emperor Yuan. It is also the most common type of Emperor-level spirit pill. As far as Ji Ying knows, there are at least eight or ten prescriptions for this kind of spirit pill. Although they are roughly the same, there are also some differences.
And the best formula for the Emperor Yuan Pill is naturally the one he himself has mastered. Because this formula was personally improved by the Wonderful Pill Great Emperor many years ago. It can be said that there is no better formula for this pill in the world.
This formula, the Wonderful Pill Great Emperor has only taught it to a few of his disciples, and no outsiders have learned it.
Now seeing the traces of this formula in Yang Kai’s hands, Ji Ying is naturally surprised.
Not only is Ji Ying surprised, but also the other onlookers have strange expressions.
Because they found that Yang Kai and Ji Ying are almost exactly the same in the process of refining pills. The difference is that Yang Kai’s movements are slightly faster, and Ji Ying is a little slower. This is not because Ji Ying’s alchemy skills are not as good as Yang Kai’s, but because he started slower.
Although understanding this, it still feels wrong when seen in the eyes, as if Ji Ying is imitating Yang Kai’s alchemy. Whatever medicinal materials Yang Kai takes, he also takes. When Yang Kai puts the medicinal materials into the pill furnace, he also puts the medicinal materials into the pill furnace…
The doubts in Ji Ying’s heart are getting stronger and stronger. He originally thought that this situation was just a coincidence, but it was not until the middle of the refining process that he was sure that the pill formulas mastered by the two were really the same.
“Where did you get this pill formula?” Ji Ying couldn’t help but ask.
This is a pill formula passed down by the master. How could it have fallen into the hands of outsiders?
“Master Ji, you’re distracted.” Yang Kai’s expression remained unchanged. “If this continues, you’ll lose this competition.”
Ji Ying trembled all over, breaking out in a cold sweat. Just now, he was only focused on wondering about Yang Kai’s pill formula and had become somewhat absent-minded, resulting in not using his full strength during the process of condensing the medicinal liquid. Now, looking at it, his medicinal liquid seemed to be a bit inferior to Yang Kai’s.
Condensing the medicinal liquid is the first step in alchemy and also the most crucial and fundamental step. If this step is not done well, it will surely affect the quality of the spirit pill.
Alchemy is like playing chess. One wrong step leads to, and any detail not done well is a failure.
Can’t lose! This is a competition related to Medicine Pill Valley and the reputation of the master. Absolutely can’t lose.
With a shocked expression, Ji Ying seemed like a different person, exuding an indescribable temperament. His mind was immediately immersed in alchemy, and there was nothing else in his eyes.
Yang Kai’s expression was also extremely serious. Although he was an Emperor Dan Master, this was the first time he was competing in alchemy with another Emperor Dan Master, and this person was also the personal disciple of the Wonderful Pill Great Emperor.
If he couldn’t go all out, he definitely wouldn’t be able to win.
His reliance was not the Divine Sense Fire that Ji Ying saw. This was just a small advantage of his. His true reliance was the Great Dao Pill Sound!
That year on Shuiyue Star, the main star of the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce, a pill refinement triggered the Great Dao Pill Tone, and he received the pill refinement technique from the Heavenly Dao. Since then Yang Kai has soared into the sky on the path of pill refinement.
If not for that opportunity, how could Yang Kai have advanced so quickly on the path of pill refinement? He has not spent much time on pill refinement in recent years. Generally speaking, at this time, it would be a fluke for him to become a Dao Source Realm pill master, and it would be absolutely impossible for him to become an Emperor Pill Master.
But the foundation bestowed upon him by the Great Dao Pill Tone allowed him to easily climb to the level of an Emperor Pill Master.
Even so, in terms of experience, he still cannot compare with an old-fashioned Emperor Pill Master like Ji Ying. He can only go all out.
His state of mind suddenly became ethereal, and his whole person seemed to merge into this heaven and earth. A wonderful feeling rose from the bottom of his heart.
The movements of Yang Kai’s hands changed. Suddenly, like having epilepsy, he danced and gesticulated.
“Chi…” This appearance made Li Jiao and Mi Qi almost burst into laughter. However, under the gaze of the three Great Demon Kings, they could only endure it.
Looking at Ji Ying again, his movements were smooth and meticulous. Just looking at it was a kind of enjoyment. Compared with Yang Kai’s epileptic-like performance, it was simply worlds apart, and the superiority and inferiority were immediately distinguishable.
Just like this, he still wants to win over Master Ji? He simply doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth.
Hua Qingsi also noticed this, and a hint of anxiety couldn’t help but appear on her face. She completely didn’t know what Yang Kai was doing. Before, his performance was fine. Why did he suddenly seem like a different person?
“Huh?”
Among all the people present, only one person suddenly stared intently at Yang Kai, with an extremely shocked expression on his face, and his eyes didn’t move for a moment.
This person was Ji Ying’s eldest disciple.
This eldest disciple didn’t have a good impression of Yang Kai either. It wasn’t because of Li Xuan’s slander of Yang Kai, but because of Yang Kai, Li Xuan was expelled from the master by the master. Although he also despised Li Xuan’s previous actions, after all they had been brothers for many years and still had some feelings.
He originally thought that after the master’s anger passed, he would persuade him to take Li Xuan back into the master. After all, the younger brother was still young and couldn’t avoid making mistakes. As long as he knew how to correct them after doing something wrong, it would be fine. But hateful this Yang Kai didn’t give him any chance at all.
Regarding the competition between Yang Kai and Ji Ying, he was very disdainful in his heart and didn’t think that Yang Kai could win. He also always stared at him with a hostile gaze wanting to see what kind of expression he would have when he was defeated by the master later.
Who knew that with this look, he saw something.
In the eyes of others, Yang Kai was twitching like crazy, his hands flailing around randomly, without any sense of beauty. But in his view, it had a completely different feeling. Somehow, he vaguely grasped something, but when he wanted to catch it, he couldn’t. This made him so anxious that his forehead was sweating and his eyes were wide open, carefully observing Yang Kai, not willing to let go of the slightest detail.
In the main hall, the medicinal fragrance became even stronger. All the spiritual herbs had been put into the pill furnace by the two of them and condensed into pure medicinal liquid. The furnace lid was sealed, and it had reached the stage of nurturing the pills.
A series of forces were released. Inside the pill furnace that no one could see, spiritual arrays rose and fell one after another. Multiple medicinal liquids were mixed in it, undergoing magical changes.
“Peng!” Suddenly, the eldest disciple of Ji Ying knelt down on one knee.
This sudden movement startled everyone except Yang Kai and Ji Ying.
Hua Qingsi fixed her eyes and saw that this eldest disciple was sweating profusely, as if he had just experienced a life-and-death struggle. His face was pale, and his eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, but he still stared at Yang Kai.
“What’s wrong!” Hua Qingsi quickly walked to his side and wanted to help him up.
This person was the eldest disciple of Ji Ying. If something unexpected happened to him here, it would be difficult to explain to Ji Ying.
“Don’t touch me!” The eldest disciple let out a low shout, with the veins on his forehead bulging, looking extremely terrifying.
Hua Qingsi’s outstretched hand froze in place, and she was extremely annoyed in her heart, not knowing what kind of madness this guy was having.
“Oh?” Yang Kai took the time to glance at this great disciple, grinned at him and said, “Actually saw something? Take a good look, and it depends on your own good fortune what you can realize.”
Beside them, upon hearing this, Mi Qi and Li Jiao widened their eyes, curled their lips in disdain, and thought in their hearts that this guy really dared to speak big words. That person was Ji Ying’s great disciple. Even if he wanted to learn something, he wouldn’t look for you. Why are you bothering? Moreover, with just your two skills, I’m afraid you’re not even as good as that great disciple. You actually dare to be so boastful. Aren’t you afraid that the wind will flash your tongue?
This thought had just turned over when they saw that disciple gritted his teeth tightly, widened his eyes even more, and said in a sonorous voice, “Thank you, Master Yang!”
“What?” Li Jiao and Mi Qi were stunned, and they looked at each other, seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.
What was the situation with this great disciple? He was actually thanking Yang Kai, and also calling him Master Yang…
This couldn’t be possible, right? His master was right in front of him. Wasn’t he afraid that his master would be angry?
What was going on here!
Although Ji Ying was fully concentrated, he was also startled by his disciple. Hearing him respect Yang Kai so much, his brows couldn’t help but frown. He thought that the little brat was actually turning his elbow outward at this time. He had raised you for so many years in vain.
Out of curiosity, he glanced at Yang Kai again.
With a single glance, Ji Ying’s hand movement paused, and his eyes gradually widened. He even forgot the spirit pill being nourished in the pill furnace.
His attainments in alchemy were countless times higher than those of his own disciple. Since his disciple could see some tricks, as a master, he naturally couldn’t fail to see it.
In his eyes, what he saw was not Yang Kai’s strange actions and the hands dancing like a convulsion, but a great path, a great path leading to the peak of alchemy! Yang Kai’s actions were natural and coincided with the way of alchemy. There seemed to be a kind of supreme truth that he couldn’t fathom in the dark.
This kind of situation, he had only seen on his master, the Wonderful Pill Great Emperor. He never thought that today he would be fortunate enough to find similar traces on another person.
