The Third Round

The Alchemy God who was in charge of inspecting the Divine Pill raised his hand, signaling Shen Xiang not to continue carrying the Alchemy Furnace up. He said: "There is no need to carry the Alchemy Furnace up, just bring the Divine Pill up to me."

The divine pills refined during the competition are not their own. All participating alchemy gods have no objection to this. As long as the divine pills they refine are up to standard, they will pass this first competition.

Chen Xiang continued to walk forward and said with a smile: "It is very necessary."

The middle-aged man didn't say anything else and waited for Shen Xiang to bring up the alchemy furnace.

The road was not far, and Shen Xiang quickly walked up to the platform and put down the alchemy furnace.

They were up high, and the Dan God below couldn't see them. Only people on the buildings on the sidelines could see them.

Shen Xiang opened the lid of the alchemy furnace, and a burst of light shone, covering the entire opening of the alchemy furnace, making it impossible to see what kind of magical pill was inside.

Seeing these rays of light, many Alchemy Gods' first reaction was to think that this was the aura of the divine elixir! Generally, this would only appear when the divine elixir reached the pinnacle of quality.

Shen Xiang had also refined pills of this quality in the past, but they were all below the Saint Pill. He had never refined a Divine Pill, and very few people had that kind of strength.

"It's not the Dan Guang, but..." After Luo Tianjun saw it clearly, he was so surprised that he couldn't speak.

Many people also saw it at this time. The reason why there was such a strong light was not because of the elixir's light, but because there were too many elixir inside, and this kind of elixir itself would glow. So many elixir gathered together, making the light very bright.

The middle-aged man in charge of the inspection was stunned. He was closest to the furnace and he could see everything clearly the moment the lid was opened.

He was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses from his surprise. He took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice, "Three hundred and forty-seven pills in total!"

The disciples who were watching at the square were all whispering, but when they heard what the middle-aged man said, they suddenly quieted down, and a very strong voice emerged in everyone's heart: "Impossible!"

The one who produced the most pills was the Alchemy God from the Six Paths Temple. He was the first to complete it, and the amount of pills he produced surprised many Alchemy Gods, even though it was only a few!

But Shen Xiang now has more than 300 pills! Many people have not seen it with their own eyes, so they would rather believe the Sun Fang, and do not believe that Shen Xiang can refine hundreds of pills in one furnace. Although it is a low-grade divine pill, it is also difficult to refine. It is not like planting beans, how can there be so many?

The middle-aged man lifted up the alchemy furnace and poured out all the more than 300 magic pills inside. Each magic pill was glowing. This was a mixture of two kinds of pills, one of which was golden light and the other was white light.

These 300+ magic pills were piled up on the ground, and it was clear at a glance that these were definitely real magic pills! All the previous pill gods who had produced pills combined didn't have as many as he did!

Because these pills were of little use, and there were so many medicinal materials, Shen Xiang could use his refining method to make almost two or three pills from one medicinal material, so he produced so many pills. He discovered this at the last minute.

…

"Young Master, you are also an alchemist, what's going on?" The old man behind the man in red was very surprised, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

The red-clothed man frowned and thought, then shook his head: "I don't know. I have also refined this kind of magic pill before. When I was taking the test, I refined these two kinds of magic pills. It's not difficult to refine, but it's very difficult within the rules! At that time, I could only refine three of each!"

"Young Master, the reason why Shen Xiang is so powerful must be because of the Heavenly Refining Technique. You must get it!" The old man's eyes flashed with greed.

The man in red said calmly, "It's mine, and it will always be mine! If I snatch the Heavenly Refining Technique, I don't think I can be like him, because the Heavenly Refining Technique never belonged to me. If the Heavenly Refining Technique is mine, then I don't need to snatch it at all."

The old man couldn't help but sigh, because his young master was such a person: "My lord, if you can obtain the Heavenly Refining Technique, the throne will most likely be yours. Haven't you ever thought about the throne? The emperor has hinted many times that the throne and everything he has will be passed on to the most capable prince! Although you have good talent, the other princes..."

The man in red smiled faintly: "I have never thought about competing for the throne. I just need to watch them fight from the side. If I participate in such boring and stupid things, then won't I be watched by others?"

The old man was speechless. If he got the throne, he could control a kingdom of God, have supreme power, inherit the inheritance, and his strength could be further improved. There were so many princes in the kingdom of God, who wouldn't want to get the throne? But the man in red didn't have such an idea!

…

The powerful men sent by the Kingdom of God were even more eager to obtain the Heavenly Refining Technique at this time. They all believed that as long as they obtained the Heavenly Refining Technique, they would be able to refine divine pills like Shen Xiang did just now, with hundreds of pills in one furnace!

Shen Xiang already knew that the strong men sent by the Kingdom of God were nearby, so he deliberately made such a high profile. He did this to let these people attack him, and then he could let Yang Tianyi kill all of them. This was Shen Xiang's purpose, to lure the snake out of its hole and catch it all in one fell swoop.

After Shen Xiang passed, another person finished refining when the hourglass had just run out. Now there are a total of people who can enter the next round of the game!

There were so many disciples entering the venue originally, but now there are only eight left. It can be seen how difficult the upcoming competition will be. Now it is no longer a competition between Alchemy Gods, but a challenge to the harsh rules of the competition. At the same time, competing with other Alchemy Gods is extremely difficult.

Three games have to be held in half a day, time is very tight!

Lao Tieji announced the rules of the second round loudly: "There is no need for competition in the second round. The evaluation will be based on the first round! The five people who produce the most pills can enter the final round!"

After hearing this rule, the three Alchemy Gods who produced the least pills felt very unwilling, but they did not dare to say anything and could only walk out of the arena with regret!

Shen Xiang guessed that the rules of the second game must have been changed temporarily, because such rules were too general, but there was nothing he could do. After all, no one objected. As a participating disciple, he naturally did not dare to say much, after all, he was only a lower-level Alchemy God.

Just when Shen Xiang had this guess, Luo Tianjun sent him a message: "The rules for the second game are not like this. They were suddenly changed! This should be because someone is worried that an uncontrollable situation will occur in this game."

Lao Tieji continued, "The third round begins now. If you can make it into the top three, you will receive a reward! The second and third place winners will receive two precious recipes for lower-grade divine pills! And the first place winner will receive the recipe for a mid-grade divine pill!"

Lao Tieji paused, and continued: "The third-place recipe is the Beast Taming Pill, the second-place is the Avatar Pill, and the first-place is the Soul Resurrection Pill!"

Now that the reward formula of the divine elixir has been announced, Shen Xiang feels a lot more at ease. Otherwise, if someone suddenly decides to give him some rubbish formula of the divine elixir because of his ranking, Shen Xiang would not be able to say anything.
