A Trial

Above the beautiful mountain forest, Shen Xiang was looking around and did not find any danger. Although the spiritual energy here was thin, but because of this, few people came here.

"There is a mysterious realm nearby!" Long Xueyi sensed something: "The dangerous place that can confuse the mind is very likely in that mysterious realm."

Elder Dan saw Shen Xiang's puzzled expression, and said: "This dangerous place is only known to a few of us strong men, and it is in a mysterious realm. I don't know how this mysterious realm was formed. It is the same as the Xuanwu mysterious realm. It can make people unable to use true energy, and at the same time it has a very powerful power to confuse the gods."

Can't use true Qi? Shen Xiang was very puzzled: "Then how can we use fire to refine the elixir?"

This was not the first time that Gu Dongchen, Wu Kaiming, and Liu Meng'er entered this kind of mysterious realm where they could not use true Qi, but they knew that Shen Xiang was an outlier and could be treated differently from others in these mysterious realms.

"Use this. I often practice in it, and I always use this method." Elder Dan handed Shen Xiang a bead. This was a fire-storing bead that could store a large amount of flames. Liu Meng'er and Dongfang Xinyue had one of Shen Xiang's fire-storing beads in their hands.

Shen Xiang suddenly felt that it was extremely difficult, because it was the first time he used this method to refine the pill. If he couldn't use his true energy, he wouldn't be able to release the flame directly when he entered. He had to rely on his spiritual consciousness to control the flame inside the fire bead to refine the pill. This was a severe test of his flame control ability.

Chen Xiang held the Fire Accumulation Bead, and began to pour his Heaven and Earth Fire into the Fire Accumulation Bead, and then asked: "After entering, everyone will be confused by that power, so what about them?"

"Don't worry about us. We have formations on our flying discs that can resist those forces." Liu Meng'er said, then looked at Gu Dongchen with a smile.

The hexagonal flying disc under Gu Dongchen's feet was made by Liu Meng'er. At that time, Liu Meng'er killed him with a fierce blow, which he still remembers. However, the magic weapons refined by Liu Meng'er are indeed good things.

"So, at that time, we will use the flame in the fire-storing bead to refine the elixir in an environment filled with the power of the gods?" Shen Xiang suddenly felt a lot of pressure, because now he only knew how to refine a low-grade earth-level elixir. It would not be easy to succeed in refining an unfamiliar elixir using the refining method in that environment.

"That's right. It's fair to you this way. By then, the lower-grade earth-level pills I will refine will be something I have never refined before." Elder Dan said.

The pills that Elder Dan has never refined must be those that are rarely used. These pills either have few uses or are difficult to refine, so no one is interested in them.

"A truly powerful alchemist can make pills in extremely adverse circumstances. You probably have rarely tried this!" Elder Dan sneered, "I often make pills in such adverse circumstances."

Shen Xiang's eyebrows twitched. Alchemists need very strong spiritual sense, and being in that kind of environment can indeed make the spiritual sense even stronger.

The entrance to that mysterious realm was very secretive, it was under a lake. After entering that mysterious realm, Shen Xiang immediately saw an empty piece of land with waves of white mist floating in it, and the sky was gray and looked very depressing.

"This is an alchemy furnace!" Elder Dan waved his jade hand and threw an alchemy furnace of fairly good quality to Shen Xiang. His and Elder Dan's alchemy furnaces were the same.

Gu Dongchen warned: "Young Master, if you stay here for twelve hours, you will turn into a madman. Some old guys who have survived the eight calamities of Nirvana went crazy while exploring here."

Liu Meng'er also had a serious look on her face: "We are now protected by a formation, so we are fine. If you step out of the flying disc, you will be disturbed immediately. You'd better stay where you are and make pills, because the power in the depths will be even stronger. Even if there is a powerful protective formation, I dare not go deeper."

"Here, the black box contains the medicinal materials for the Divine Power Pill, and the red box contains the God Restoring Pill! If you want to open the red box, you need a lot of strength. Only after taking the Divine Power Pill can you open it easily. The God Restoring Pill can mainly prevent you from being affected for a short period of time." Elder Dan threw the two large boxes to Shen Xiang, and continued: "These two boxes contain medicinal materials for the Xuanyuan Soul Refining Pill, and the victory or defeat depends on the quality of the Xuanyuan Soul Refining Pill."

Shen Xiang took the two boxes and carefully read the rules of the competition. These rules were very thrilling, but they made him a little unhappy, because before, the Dan Elder said that the competition was only to refine two kinds of low-grade earth-level pills, but now it was three kinds, and they were all unpopular pills that were very difficult to refine.

At this point, he couldn't say anything. He just regarded this as a test. He also realized that this was carefully prepared by Elder Dan and would be of great benefit to him because he had never experienced this kind of competition.

"If you're ready, step out on the Frisbee. If you try to cheat, they can see it clearly," said Elder Dan.

Shen Xiang took the alchemy furnace, checked it, and then jumped out of Gu Dongchen's hexagonal flying disc. Just after he jumped out, he suddenly heard the sound of waves, and found himself on a deserted island. He was now standing on the beach, the waves were slowly rushing over, and the cool sea water was very real.

Shen Xiang found it hard to believe that this was happening because his mind was confused, because all of this was so real. He immediately looked around and found that Gu Dongchen and Liu Meng'er's flying discs had disappeared.

But Gu Dongchen and the others could see that Shen Xiang was spinning in place like an idiot, while Elder Dan had already started refining the elixir on the spot.

Shen Xiang soon realized that his five senses were all confused. This was similar to the sleight of hand in the Seventy-Two Transformations. However, what frightened him the most was that he had lost contact with Su Meiyao and the others. He called out to Long Xueyi several times in his heart, but there was no response.

Seeing Chen Xiang's horrified look, Liu Meng'er couldn't help but chuckle and said, "This idiot, he probably doesn't know we are watching him."

"Is that kind of magical power really that strong?" Dongfang Xinyue asked. She had never tried it.

"Well, staying there for too long will definitely drive a person crazy." Liu Meng'er said.

Of course Shen Xiang could not hear their conversation, but he could hear the sound of the waves and the long cries of the giant eagles in the blue sky.

"Little rascal, hurry up and make the elixir. There are several people staring at you in a daze." Long Xueyi's voice suddenly came.

Chen Xiang was delighted and asked hurriedly: "Where is Sister Meiyao?"

"I'm here, but I didn't expect this magical power to be so strong. What my senior sister, Xueyi and I saw was the same as what you saw. Moreover, Xueyi's wandering in the sky was useless. No matter how far she flew, all she saw was the sea." Su Meiyao exclaimed.
