Chapter 176
"What a powerful medicinal property!"
"One dose of medicine, seven pills, increases the medicinal property by fifty percent. It's terrifying!"
"It's a pity. If I had such a pill back then, I wouldn't have let them inherit the Divine King's legacy!"
"Yes, if I had it back then, I would have become the first in the competition and been accepted as a disciple by a Divine King!"
Looking at these seven pills, a hint of emotion and sigh flashed in everyone's eyes.
Listening to the words of the people around, the eyes of countless powerful forces were focused on Ye Xiaoyao, filled with even more sighs and emotions.
Even the nine judges were shocked as they looked at Ye Xiaoyao.
There is no doubt that Ye Xiaoyao's pill is the best among the five.
The remaining four people also looked at him as if facing a formidable enemy, feeling an unprecedented pressure.
Of course, the last two were already destined to be eliminated. Most of their eyes on Ye Xiaoyao were filled with envy and jealousy.
The first two were a young man in his thirties and a young girl.
Ye Xiaoyao could tell that both of them came from the Central Nine States.
Although they were not as aloof as the young man "327" at the beginning, they still had a sense of pride deep down.
At this moment, looking at Ye Xiaoyao's appearance, both of them also felt immense pressure.
But neither of them gave up. Obviously, the Ghost-Faced Red Lotus Fire and the Divine Artifact-level Cauldron made them very tempted.
Perhaps he had only refined the Nine Elements Rampage Pill before!
They comforted themselves in their hearts.
At this moment, the nine judges exchanged glances and shook their heads.
"What a powerful alchemy technique. It seems to have a taste of the ancient alchemists!"
"Yes, it's a technique we've never seen before, but more importantly, it's his understanding and accomplishment in alchemy, surpassing alchemists of the same level!"
"It is said that among the nine secrets of the Ye Family created by the War God Ye Wushang, there is a technique called the Alchemy Scripture. Ye Xiaoyao is probably practicing this technique!"
"That makes sense, otherwise it's hard to explain why it's so terrifying!"
"That Alchemy Scripture was created by Ye Wushang himself. I wonder how accomplished he is in alchemy?"
"I don't know much about it, but it should be good. I remember that among the major families in the Lower Ninth Region, the Ye Family seems to be the only one that has never placed an order for pill prescriptions from our Medicine Sect!"
"In that case, the Ye Family must have their own alchemy system!"
The crowd began to discuss with excitement and astonishment in their words.
At the same time, they also developed a strong interest in Ye Wushang's alchemy skills.
Sure enough, as everyone finished their alchemy, the two alchemists were eliminated.
At this moment, the top three were determined, and everyone's gaze fell on them, wanting to know who would stand out and become the new Medicine God.
However, the majority of people's eyes were on Ye Xiaoyao.
Clearly, Ye Xiaoyao's three consecutive successful pill refinements had amazed them.
"The final battle has simple rules. Within three days, refine the pill that you are best at. We will evaluate based on the grade, medicinal properties, rarity, and level of the pill. The one with the highest score will become the Medicine God of this generation!"
The leader announced the rules directly.
Upon hearing this, the young man and the woman, who had initially thought their chances of winning were slim, suddenly brightened their eyes.
At this moment, their gaze towards Ye Xiaoyao was filled with fighting spirit.
As outstanding First Grade alchemists, with talent on their side, they naturally had their own specialty pills.
They were confident that in this aspect, no one could surpass them.
In other words, relying on their specialty pills, they were confident in competing with Ye Xiaoyao.
Upon hearing this rule, the crowd frowned, feeling that it seemed a bit unfair to Ye Xiaoyao.
But there was nothing they could do. This was the unanimous decision of the nine judges, and it was not their turn to question it.
It should be noted that those who were invited by the Medicine Sect to be judges were already highly accomplished in the field of alchemy.
Among them, the worst were top-tier Divine Grade alchemists who were renowned in the region.
Unlike the others, Ye Xiaoyao had a calm expression on his face, his eyes unaffected by anything, as if he hadn't been influenced at all.
This scene made the nine judges feel moved, and some of them even had the idea of taking him as their disciple.
Having arrived at the Medicine Sect's treasure trove of medicinal materials, everyone selected their own batch of pill ingredients and began a new round of alchemy.
The young man and the woman took a deep breath and focused on the pill furnace.
Boom~!
In an instant, flames surged, and the two of them simultaneously began to form hand seals, striking towards the pill furnace.
Compared to the two of them, Ye Xiaoyao closed his eyes, as if brewing something.
This scene made many people anxious.
You see, although the speed of alchemy is not the key to determining victory or defeat, it becomes very important if the gap between the two pill medicines is not significant.
For Ye Xiaoyao to close his eyes now, it means that he has lost the initiative.
Unfortunately, he paid no attention to their anxiety.
After about half an hour, he suddenly opened his eyes, a ray of brilliance flashing.
It's time!
At this moment, he changed from his previous relaxed and calm state to suddenly becoming extremely serious.
With a loud clap, the surroundings shook, and the pill furnace instantly turned red, causing people's expressions to change, secretly feeling amazed.
What powerful control over the flames!
Ignoring the race against time of the other two, Ye Xiaoyao cautiously placed one medicinal ingredient after another.
Time passed, and two and a half days flashed by.
Boom~!
The young man and the woman almost simultaneously completed the alchemy.
They saw that Ye Xiaoyao was still adding medicinal ingredients to the pill furnace, and couldn't help but exchange a glance, smirking proudly.
In the end, they were slightly better off.
They exchanged a glance, seeing the strong confidence in each other's eyes.
Finally, with great tacit understanding, they opened the pill furnace together.
In an instant, nine golden pills emerged, with pill patterns appearing one after another. The endless fragrance of medicine instantly filled the Holy Land of the Medicine Sect, making people yearn for it.
Soon, the nine pills were presented, and when the nine judges saw them, they couldn't help but show a hint of astonishment and shock.
"First Grade Conceptual Pill, nine pills formed, the quality is so high that it can rival a half-step Divine Pill. In terms of Supreme Grade quality, it has added forty percent of medicinal properties, unprecedented!"
"Yes, the Dan of Artistic Conception can help strengthen those below the Divine Realm, refine their own artistic conception, and condense their artistic conception to spread towards the divine level. It is the coveted Divine Pill for achieving perfection in becoming a god!"
The crowd couldn't help but speak, their eyes filled with astonishment. Looking at the woman, their gazes revealed a hint of shock.
Then, their gaze shifted to the other side.
"The Half-Step Divine Pill, the Three Elements Profound Moon Dan, can help those at the Spirit Ascension realm achieve the Supreme Grade pill, allowing them to advance from the Grotto-Heaven world to the Divine Kingdom. The quality is Supreme Grade, with perfect medicinal properties. Truly amazing."
"Yes, being able to refine nine pills into the perfect grade, although the medicinal properties haven't increased, the process of refining the Half-Step Divine Pill is extremely difficult!"
"Indeed, it's really hard to evaluate these two pills. It seems unfair no matter who gets them!"
"Yes, although the Half-Step Divine Pill surpasses the First Grade pill, the Dan of Artistic Conception has improved its medicinal properties by forty percent in terms of Supreme Grade quality, enough to narrow this gap!"
At this moment, the nine judges also fell into contemplation, unable to make a decision.
Of course, some leaned towards the First Grade pill, while others leaned towards the Half-Step Divine Pill, but it all depended on their preferences.
Then, they turned their gaze to Ye Xiaoyao, seemingly waiting for something.
"It's strange, Ye Xiaoyao is usually the first to refine the pill. This time, why is he so slow?"
"I wonder what he's refining. If it's just a regular First Grade or Half-Step Divine Pill, he's afraid he'll fall behind!"
"Why do I always feel like he's brewing something?"
"Hehe, don't you think he's trying to refine the Divine Pill in version 2.1? Just kidding, the Divine Pill is not so easily achieved. Even those experienced alchemists can't guarantee a hundred percent success!"
"If he really is refining the Divine Pill, then he's taking a big step!"
"Watch, the three-day deadline is almost here. If he can't produce the pill, even if he manages to refine it, he won't have a chance to compete for the title of Medicine God!"
Amidst the chatter of the crowd, time gradually passed.
Dusk was approaching, and there was less than half an incense stick's worth of time left until the three-day deadline.
Seeing this, everyone shook their heads. Obviously, they already believed that Ye Xiaoyao had no chance.
The nine judges glanced at each other, and they could see the regret in each other's eyes.
"Everyone, it seems that Ye Xiaoyao doesn't have much of a chance. In that case, let's start voting!"
Just as he was about to begin, suddenly, a dragon's roar resounded through the heavens and earth, instantly attracting the attention of countless people.
"What's this? An anomaly in the heavens and earth, a sign that the Divine Pill is forming!"
Someone exclaimed, causing a commotion among the crowd!
