Li Baojun said that he would rest for half an hour before starting the next round. He did this to let himself catch his breath and calm himself down. Now he was facing a great enemy, and he no longer had the relaxed mentality he had just now. He saw that Shen Xiang refined the Five Elements True Essence Pill so easily, and at such a fast speed, and he produced two more pills than him, which showed that Shen Xiang's foundation in alchemy was very strong.
Li Baojun believed that even his master, the Pill King Li Tianjun, could not match Shen Xiang in refining the Five Elements True Essence Pill! Although Shen Xiang only refined the lower-grade Xuan-level pills, once Shen Xiang could refine high-level pills, he would be like now, with high quality, fast speed, and a large number of pills! This was achieved based on a very solid foundation!
He had seen many geniuses, but this was the first time he had seen a genius like Shen Xiang who was so steady and not arrogant. If he could reach the realm of Dan King one day, he would be a very powerful figure.
"The three kinds of low-grade Xuan-level pills that I will refine next will be very useful. Of course, this is only for low-level warriors, such as you." Li Baojun believed that Shen Xiang was still a warrior in the True Martial Realm.
Shen Xiang smiled: "The lower-grade Xuan-level pills are of little use to me. What I need is the middle-grade or upper-grade Xuan-level pills."
Li Baojun was shocked and asked, "What is your current strength?"
"I have just been promoted to the Ultimate Realm, the early stage of Spiritual Martial Arts!" Shen Xiang replied.
Li Baojun swallowed his saliva. He really wanted to ask Shen Xiang's age, but he didn't ask. He was worried that he would be shocked. Being able to learn such a high-level alchemy skill and possessing such outstanding strength, this thought was quite terrifying!
"These three kinds of pills are the Five Elements True Essence Pill, the Foundation Building Pill, and the Bone Cleansing Pill. You have no objection, right?" Li Baojun asked.
"Is the Bone Cleansing Pill commonly used?" It is very difficult for Shen Xiang to find the medicinal materials for the Bone Cleansing Pill now. This is a pill that can strengthen the physical body of a warrior. It is very useful, but not often available.
"There were a lot of them in the past, but they have become very rare in the past ten thousand years." Hua Xiangyue said.
Chen Xiang nodded: "No problem, let's get started now!"
He was very familiar with the Foundation Establishment Pill and the Five Elements True Essence Pill, but he had never refined the Bone Cleansing Pill.
The difficulty of refining the Bone Cleansing Pill is not as good as the Five Elements True Essence Pill, but Shen Xiang still learned from some books that it is still quite difficult. Now he can only use the refining method to try to refine it.
He felt that this was also a method and opportunity to improve the application of the drill method.
Li Baojun handed Shen Xiang three jade boxes, each containing three medicinal materials. He was very familiar with two of them, which were the medicinal materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill and the Five Elements True Essence Pill. The other one was something he had never seen before. In addition to some auxiliary medicinal materials such as ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum, and Ganoderma lucidum, there were also three black-looking fruits that felt very hard and felt like iron balls when picked up.
Seeing Shen Xiang's expression, Hua Xiangyue could tell that this was the first time Shen Xiang had refined the Bone Cleansing Pill. Before, Shen Xiang had also asked her to help collect the medicinal materials for the Bone Cleansing Pill, but she had never found them.
"Haven't you ever refined the Bone Cleansing Pill before?" Li Baojun also saw it, because Shen Xiang was holding the three iron ball-like fruits with curiosity on his face.
Shen Xiang nodded: "This should be the main ingredient of the Bone Cleansing Pill, the Iron Spirit Fruit! I heard that it is harder than iron, and even more difficult to smelt!"
Li Baojun was surprised and said, "You have never refined it before, why did you say there is no problem just now? This is very disadvantageous to you."
Chen Xiang smiled faintly: "It's okay, I just want to give it a try! Because the medicinal materials for this Bone Cleansing Pill are rare now, and it's hard to come across them, so of course I have to try to refine it regardless of everything."
What Shen Xiang said was true. Whenever he saw some rare medicinal herbs, he couldn't help but want to refine them!
Li Baojun was completely shocked and looked at Shen Xiang in amazement. He had never refined a pill before, but he could say such words. There was only one possibility, that is, Shen Xiang understood the skill that a high-level alchemist must master - the method of refining!
In Li Baojun's understanding, only when one starts to learn how to refine upper-grade Xuan-level or lower-grade Di-level pills, one would start to learn the damn refining method. It is a very mentally and brain-consuming alchemy technique. If one cannot learn it, one will not be able to enter the stage of a high-level alchemist!
Shen Xiang is only refining low-grade Xuan-level pills now, but he has mastered this advanced alchemy skill. He can be said to be a genius among geniuses.
Li Baojun took a few deep breaths before calming down and asked seriously, "Do you really know how to perform the refining method?"
Shen Xiang replied: "When I first refined the Five Elements True Essence Pill, I used the refining method, and the conditions at that time were very poor."
At that time, Shen Xiang did not have an alchemy furnace, so he used his magic power to conjure up a transparent alchemy furnace to refine the alchemy. It was extremely difficult, but it was also because of this that he laid a solid foundation for the alchemy method!
This was also Hua Xiangyue's contribution, so Shen Xiang was very grateful to her.
"Who is your master?" Li Baojun asked subconsciously, and then looked at Hua Xiangyue. For someone so young to have such a strong foundation in alchemy, his master must be no simple one.
"There are three people who taught me how to make pills. One is her, the other is an elder from my Taiwu Sect, and the other is an old senior, whose name I cannot reveal." Shen Xiang spoke the truth. When he was in Taidan Royal Court, Elder Dan also taught him how to make pills, which benefited him a lot at that time.
During the alchemy competition in Danxiang Taoyuan, Hua Xiangyue posed a great challenge to Shen Xiang, forcing Shen Xiang to break through his own bottleneck, thus mastering the alchemy method and the magic furnace.
Li Baojun sighed deeply, his face was extremely solemn. He knew that he had just looked down on others. He believed that if Shen Xiang could reach his level, his achievements would definitely far exceed his.
The second competition began. Li Baojun attached great importance to this competition because if he lost this one, he would have no chance of turning the tables. He was an old alchemist and was very close to becoming a Danzong, but if he still lost to a little kid, his life would have been in vain.
Shen Xiang and Li Baojun began to process the medicinal materials. Li Baojun finished first. He first refined the Five Elements True Essence Pill. What made Li Baojun a little confused was that Shen Xiang actually processed two batches of medicinal materials, namely the Five Elements True Essence Pill and the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Seeing this, Hua Xiangyue smiled slightly. She knew what Shen Xiang was going to do!
Shen Xiang had never refined the Bone Refining Pill before, so when he refined it, he needed a lot of time to practice the refining method and he also needed to slow down. In order to gain time, he had to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill and the Five Elements True Essence Pill at the same time!
Hua Xiangyue knew that she would soon be able to see Shen Xiang refining two furnaces of pills at the same time. This was still a shocking scene for her. Since that time, she had secretly tried it. Although she was successful, she was far inferior to Shen Xiang in all aspects.
