Chapter 2721
byShock！
In an instant, Ji Ying’s heart was like a stormy sea, setting off huge waves. How could there be such a heaven-defying existence in this world？ He could actually figure out the essence of the way of alchemy like his master.
No, even if it was his master, at his age, he couldn’t have achieved this.
Ji Ying was completely stunned, having an indescribable feeling. The one competing with him in alchemy at the moment didn’t seem to be that youth named Yang Kai, but the Great Dao that he had been searching for but couldn’t capture.
How could he win？
His heart was suddenly a bit chaotic, and a hissing sound suddenly came from the Three-legged Twin-dragon Cauldron.
“Master Ji, you…” Li Jiao and Mi Qi exclaimed in unison.
Although they didn’t understand alchemy and couldn’t see much of the subtleties, Ji Ying’s current state was obviously a bit off. Just from the change in his complexion, how could they not see that there was some problem with his state of mind.
How could this be？ If Ji Ying lost in this competition, he wouldn’t have much loss, but the two of them had bet the income of their respective sects for fifty years. If they lost, within the next fifty years, the disciples of the two sects would probably have to tighten their belts and live a hard life.
Ji Ying was shocked and suddenly woke up. He was still in the competition, and his heart was suddenly filled with chills and shame.
This was already the second time he had been distracted, which would surely have some impact on the entire alchemy process. However, after all, his cultivation was profound and he quickly suppressed the furnace fire to make up for it.
Forcing himself to calm down and throwing away all distractions, under the great pressure, Ji Ying’s movements suddenly became much smoother.
He actually had some insights.
The eldest disciple still stared wide-eyed at Yang Kai’s movements. The bloodshot eyes in his eyes became increasingly dense, and his whole body trembled. He seemed to be suffering from great torture, but his expression was extremely excited.
As time passed, wisps of the fragrance of the elixir overflow. This was not the simple aroma of the spiritual medicine, but the aroma of the spiritual pill.
When this aroma spread out, it meant that the refining had reached the final stage. As long as there were no mistakes, the spiritual pill could be refined.
The closer it was to the final moment, the more nervous and uneasy Mi Qi and Li Jiao became. They didn’t know if Ji Ying could defeat Yang Kai after all. Originally, they had full confidence in Ji Ying. But the instability of Ji Ying’s state of mind just now made them a little uneasy. They didn’t know if that incident just now would affect the quality of the final spiritual pill.
Another hour passed, and the medicinal fragrance in the main hall was already as thick as substance. Yang Kai’s changing hands suddenly stopped, and his expression was solemn. He gently lifted the Purple Void Cauldron and shouted loudly in his mouth： ‘Rise！’
‘Collecting the pills！’
Everyone’s expressions froze, knowing that Yang Kai’s cauldron of spiritual pills had truly reached the final stage.
This process was also an extremely important step in alchemy. A good pill collection formula could enable the alchemist to refine more spiritual pills with higher quality.
On the other side, Ji Ying also patted his alchemy furnace in vain. The furnace lid flew out, and he also entered the stage of collecting pills.
Mi Qi and Li Jiao looked at this scene and couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief in their hearts.
They knew that at this point, Yang Kai was definitely no match for Ji Ying. Because the pill-receiving formula that Ji Ying mastered was personally taught by the Great Emperor. Even if Yang Kai had some opportunities and became an Emperor Dan Master, it was impossible for him to have a better pill-receiving formula than Ji Ying.
The two of them didn’t dare to pretend to understand and quickly looked at the eldest disciple, wanting to see some clues from his expression.
At a glance, their two hearts sank straight down.
Because at this moment, the eldest disciple was actually still observing Yang Kai’s movements. In his two bloodshot eyes, Instead, he turned a blind eye to his own master’s side.
Impossible？ Could it be that Yang Kai is even more powerful in the pill-receiving technique？ Otherwise, why wouldn’t this eldest disciple take this opportunity to learn his own master’s technique and instead pay attention to Yang Kai？
It must be because this eldest disciple’s learning is not good and his vision is not enough.
Mi Qi and Li Jiao comforted themselves in their hearts. Even if Ji Ying was distracted twice during the process of competing in alchemy, they still had great expectations for Ji Ying.
The Nine Heavens Mysterious Pill Formula was used, and were slapped into the Purple Void Cauldron making the last step of alchemy as perfect as possible.
This was the pill collection technique that Yang Kai had comprehended from the Great Dao Pill Tone. Even compared to the technique personally created by the Great Emperor, it was slightly better.
Dinglingling…
A extremely pleasant and beautiful sound suddenly rang out within the pill furnace.
The pill was formed！
Yang Kai, a string of round and plump spirit pills flew out. Mi Qi and Li Jiao widened their eyes and looked on, wanting to see exactly how many pills Yang Kai had formed and what their quality was like. But before they could see clearly, Yang Kai had already stuffed them into the prepared jade bottle.
This couldn’t help but make the two of them hate their teeth itchy.
And on the other side, Ji Ying also began to collect the pills. After finishing the last spell, several Emperor Yuan Pills flew up from the pill furnace. With a casual grab, he threw them into the jade bottle in his left hand.
“Finished refining and withdraw power！” Yang Kai made a false press with both hands, sank his qi into his dantian, and let out a soft breath.
Ji Ying stood there motionless, his brows tightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about something. And his eldest disciple, even at the moment when Yang Kai finished refining, closed his eyes and knelt there like a sculpture, as if his spirit was wandering outside.
This really worried Mi Qi and Li Jiao. At this moment, they couldn’t wait to know the result of this competition. Although they felt that the possibility of Ji Ying losing was not great, they were still a little nervous when it came to the critical moment.
After all, it concerns the income of each sect for fifty years, a full five billion high-grade source crystals.
Since Ji Ying didn’t move, Yang Kai didn’t bother him either. He knew that Ji Ying was considering the gains and losses of this alchemy. This was an extremely important moment for an alchemist. Looking around, he winked at Zhu Qing who was looking at him intently.
Zhu Qing’s face was as cold as an ice cube and how could she pay attention to him, making him feel embarrassed for nothing.
After a long time, Ji Ying finally let out a soft breath and turned around to bow at Yang Kai and said, “Brother Yang’s high skills, Ji admires.”
After competing with Yang Kai for a while, Ji Ying immediately understood that he had really underestimated him before. He was not only an Emperor Dan Master, but also an Emperor Dan Master whose skills were no weaker than his own.
He only caught a glimpse of that wonderful alchemy process, but he was also amazed. If it wasn’t for the fact that this competition was of great significance, he would have even been unable to resist to interrupt the refining and have a good look.
“Whether I win or lose this time, Ji must thank Brother Yang.” Ji Ying said with a sincere expression, glancing at his eldest disciple.
After knowing that Yang Kai was an Emperor Dan Master not inferior to himself, Ji Ying’s address to him had changed. And since his eldest disciple obviously had a lot of gains, he should naturally thank the other party.
Before, he had always called Yang Kai Palace Master, but now it had become a little more intimate.
“No problem, Brother Ji is too polite.” Yang Kai smiled slightly.
Li Jiao and Mi Qi were dumbfounded watching from the side, thinking something was wrong. Didn’t Ji Ying come here this time to cause trouble for Yang Kai? Why is he suddenly calling him brother now?
Even the two of them, who have known Ji Ying for many years, don’t dare and are not qualified to call him like that.
They couldn’t help but feel a little annoyed in their hearts. If I had known this earlier, they wouldn’t have come along.
“Master Ji, let’s first look at the result of the competition.” Mi Qi changed the topic to prevent Yang Kai and Ji Ying from continuing to build up their relationship. As long as Ji Ying wins this competition, then this trip of theirs will definitely be worthwhile.
The income of the sect for fifty years! Just thinking about it makes one feel excited.
The two of them were still very curious about the things in Yang Kai’s ring and wanted to know what they were that actually received such a high evaluation and importance from Ji Ying.
Ji Ying looked at Yang Kai inquiringly. Yang Kai smiled slightly and stretched out his hand, saying, “The guest has come first. Brother Ji, please！”
Ji Ying nodded and said, “Then I won’t be polite.”
As he spoke, he uncovered the jade bottle in his hand and poured out the Emperor Yuan Pills from it.
Everyone in the great hall stretched their necks for a while and looked towards the palm of his hand.
“Nine！” Mi Qi took a glance and immediately let out an excited low cry.
This time, Ji Ying refined nine pills, which is already the maximum number of pills in a furnace of spiritual pills. In this regard, he has basically won half！ The rest depends on the quality of these spiritual pills. However, with Ji Ying’s shot, the quality of the refined spiritual pills will definitely not be bad. This can be seen from the fact that each of these spiritual pills is round and full, and the color is transparent.
“Look, look…” Li Jiao seemed to have discovered a new continent. Pointing at one of the Emperor Yuan Pills, he said excitedly, “Dan patterns, they are Dan patterns！”
One of the nine spiritual pills was covered with patterns on the surface. At first glance, it was like the meridians of the human body. It was the legendary Dan pattern！
If a spiritual pill produces Dan patterns during the refining process, its medicinal effect will double directly, and its value will naturally rise.
However, Dan patterns are not something that everyone can refine. Even those most skilled alchemists can only encounter them by chance. But now, a spiritual pill with Dan patterns has appeared in the spiritual pills refined by Ji Ying.
And it is still a spiritual pill of the Emperor level！
This makes it even more precious and astonishing.
“Hahaha！” Mi Qi also laughed heartily. The heart that had been raised finally fell back into his stomach. If Ji Ying’s refinement of nine pills only won half, then this spiritual pill with Dan patterns made the victory a foregone conclusion. Yang Kai had no chance of turning the tables.
There was no need to even look at the quality of the elixirs he refined.
Mi Qi didn’t believe that Yang Kai could also refine an elixir with Dan patterns.
If Dan patterns were really that easy to refine, they wouldn’t be called Dan patterns.
Youdaoplaceholder0 at Li Jiao, both of them had in their eyes and were extremely happy.
Fifty billion high-grade Source Crystals, the income of the sect for fifty years, was about to be obtained. How could the two of them not be happy?
Secretly deciding that after Yang Kai fulfilled the bet, they would buy the Emperor Yuan Dan with Dan patterns from Ji Ying’s hands. This was the key to victory and was worth keeping well. As long as this elixir existed, the Lingxiao Palace and Yang Kai would never want to raise their heads in front of them.
Of course, it could also be a good favor for Ji Ying by the way.
Should they humiliate Yang Kai by the way？ Looking at the three Great Demon Kings who had been standing beside them, eyeing them covetously, the two of them thought about it and forget it. Lest the other party became angry from embarrassment and the two of them were really no match for them.
