C665 Heavenly Pills
In other words, Wang Hao made at least five changes to the recipe.
Seeing Wang Hao's actions, Chiang Mao, who was secretly observing Wang Hao, could not help raising his eyebrows.
Changing the pill formula was a very difficult thing. Perhaps a grandmaster alchemist could find some improvements from the Profound Rank or Earth Rank Medicine Pill formula.
But improving the Heaven Rank Medicine Pill formula was extremely difficult.
The symbol of becoming a grandmaster alchemist was that one could refine a Heaven Rank Medicine Pill. However, being able to refine a Heaven Rank Medicine Pill did not mean that one could improve the formula of a Heaven Rank Medicine Pill.
The current number of Heaven Rank Medicine Pills formulas in the Alchemist Association was less than a hundred, and 95% of them had been inherited from a long history.
There were only a few three that were created by the Pill Master that was still alive.
Two of them came from the association's chairman Ying Zheng, and the other came from Elder Lu.
This was also the reason why Elder Lu had the confidence to scold the Second Elder even though he was facing a powerful and influential Second Elder. In terms of alchemy, Elder Lu was second only to Ying Zheng in the association!
The formation of a Heaven Rank Medicine Pill's pill formula must have gone through thousands of tests before it was completed.
Changing the pill formula was easy, but changing the Medicine Pill that was refined would increase the medicinal effects. It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
In order to improve the Thousand Illusion Dragon Sunflower Pill's formula, Chiang Mao spent an entire twenty years researching it. The ancient Pill Book books he had read could fill up a room.
In the process of improvement, Chiang Mao could be said to have put in a lot of effort. He studied it day and night, wholeheartedly devoting himself to it.
But even so, Chiang Mao only improved some of the refining details of the Thousand Illusion Dragon Sunflower Pill formula. The spiritual herbs used in refining the pill still remained the same.
However, Wang Hao only used more than two hours to modify five types of spirit herbs in the original pill formula!
Chiang Mao could not accept it. Veins popped out on his forehead.
"Impossible! Wang Hao must be bluffing! Even Master can't possibly complete the improvement of the Heaven Rank Medicine Pill formula within an hour!"
Beads of sweat rolled down Chiang Mao's forehead. His hand that was concocting the pill began to tremble uncontrollably.
Just as Chiang Mao's mind was about to collapse, a deafening sound exploded in his ears and entered his soul.
"Disciple, wake up!"
Chiang Mao woke up from his daze. He hurriedly stabilized the fire in the Pill Cauldron.
He was drenched in sweat and secretly rejoiced, "That was close. I almost fell short of success!"
The surrounding people did not notice Chiang Mao's unusual behavior. He understood that Ying Zheng had used the sound shrinking method to form a line to wake him up.
"Damn it, I almost lost my mind!" After Ying Zheng's shout, Chiang Mao's confidence was rekindled. "Since I'm certain that Wang Hao will not succeed, I should just ignore him. I will definitely win this match in Pill Gathering!"
The Second Elder beside Ying Zheng asked in a low voice, "Chairman, is there any reason for Wang Hao to change the pill formula?"
Ying Zheng shook his head. "It is not enough to know the quality of the pill formula. Only when he really refines the pill formula will he be able to know.
However, I don't believe that he can succeed. Perhaps, he only did this to dampen Chiang Mao's confidence. "
Hearing Ying Zheng's opinion, the Second Elder heaved a sigh of relief.
On the other side of the arena, Chiang Wo curiously asked Chiang Simeng, "Miss, will the Thousand Illusion Dragon Sunflower Pill that Wang Hao refined after modifying the pill formula surpass Chiang Mao?"
"I don't know," Chiang Simeng's voice was calm. "I tried to deduce it and could only confirm that Wang Hao increased and reduced the speed of the spiritual grass. It would not conflict with the other spiritual herbs in the pill formula. At least, the Medicine Pill could be refined. As for the medicinal effects, I can't guess. "
The two people with the strongest alchemy skills had doubts about Wang Hao's method.
Wang Hao completely ignored everything that was happening around him. His hands turned into afterimages as he quickly processed the spiritual herbs.
What Chiang Mao, Ying Zheng, and Chiang Simeng did not know was that Wang Hao not only changed the type of the spiritual herbs in the pill formula, but also completely overturned the ratio of each spiritual herb.
Rather than saying that he changed the pill formula, it was more appropriate to say that he created a new pill formula.
After the spiritual herbs were processed, Wang Hao opened the lid of the Nine Revolutions Fire Lotuses Cauldron. In an instant, the nine-petal Fire Lotus on the Pill Cauldron base turned fiery red. A ball of blood-red flame spurted out from the Pill Cauldron like a tongue of flame.
The Nine Revolutions Fire Lotuses Cauldron had its own heavenly fire, so there was no need to use other flames.
Wang Hao followed the pill formula that he had modified and threw the spiritual herbs into the Pill Cauldron one by one. After that, he closed the lid of the cauldron and sat cross-legged in front of the Pill Cauldron. The Yuan energy that surged out of his body continuously poured into the nine-petal Fire Lotus. It controlled the strength of the heavenly fire within the cauldron.
Chiang Mao was not willing to be outdone. He gathered Yuan energy with both hands and forcefully slammed it onto the Four Beast Cauldron.
The body of the cauldron let out a heaven-shaking roar. Its Qi was so strong that it made people stare with their eyes wide open.
Time flew by. Twelve hours had passed. Soon, half of the time had passed.
The Pill Master competition had already been completed. They took out the Medicine Pill and handed it over to the ten judges and elders.
The elders evaluated the items one by one, and they were all very agreeable with their comments.
However, the audience didn't care at all. Their attention was all focused on Wang Hao and Chiang Mao.
Everyone knew that these two were the main characters of Pill Gathering!
Four hours, eight hours, nine hours.
Most of the participants had already finished competing in the Pill Master competition. At this moment, there were only five people left on the arena.
Wang Hao of the Essence Martial Sect, Chiang Mao of the Alchemist Association, Wang Ling of the Essence Returning Sect, Fan Ying of the Sun Moon Cult, and Ba Mu, who did not belong to any major power.
The Thousand Illusion Dragon Sunflower Pill needed to be refined for nine hours. Therefore, Wang Hao and Chiang Mao would not complete the concoction until the competition ended.
Therefore, everyone's attention was focused on the other three people.
Among the three, the first one to complete the pill refinement was Wang Ling.
After a full twenty hours, Wang Ling finally completed the Medicine Pill refinement. He took a deep breath and withdrew his control over the two completely different forces.
"Bang!"
The instant the energy dissipated, the lid of the Pill Cauldron in front of Wang Ling shot into the sky. Two beams of light, one black and one white, shot into the sky.
"Phenomena! It's a phenomenon!"
Alarmed cries shook the heavens. The Medicine Pill that Wang Ling refined actually produced a phenomenon.
No matter what kind of Heaven Rank treasure was born, there would always be a rare phenomenon.
Without a doubt, Wang Ling refined a Heaven Rank Medicine Pill!
The ten judges were deeply shocked. They never thought that besides Wang Hao and Chiang Mao, there would be someone else who could refine a Heaven Rank Medicine Pill!
This was a young Pill Master under 300 years of age. The younger generation could be feared, and the younger generation could be feared!
Wang Ling took the Medicine Pill out of the Pill Furnace. Elder Lu's fingers trembled as he received the Medicine Pill.
The Heaven Rank Medicine Pill that Wang Ling refined was round and smooth. It was black and white in color, and the two colors blended together. It was natural and harmonious.
"This ___ is called the Black White Pill. It's a grade one Heaven Rank and has the effect of replenishing one's energy and curing injuries and blood stasis."
The ten elders took turns to check and confirmed that it was indeed a Heaven Rank Medicine Pill.
This Black White Pill was comparable to all the Pill Masters that had been refined before.
Wang Ling's face revealed a proud expression. From today onwards, the name of Wang Ling's genius would be passed down through word of mouth, and his reputation would be greatly boosted.
This was only the beginning. Half an incense stick of time after Wang Ling finished refining, Fan Ying had also finished refining the pill.
She stopped praying and kowtowed nine times respectfully towards the horizon.
When she kowtowed nine times, a golden light suddenly shot down from the sky in the direction she was kneeling and poured into the Pill Cauldron.
"Bang!"
The lid of the cauldron flew up, and a golden Medicine Pill flickered with a dazzling golden light as it floated out from the Pill Cauldron.
Many of the spectators couldn't help but gulp.
"A rare phenomenon, another rare phenomenon!"
Fan Ying stood up and respectfully stretched out her hands to remove the Medicine Pill.
She handed the Medicine Pill to Elder Lu and introduced it, "This Medicine Pill is called the Holy Light Pill. It is a First Grade Heaven Rank pill and has the effect of healing hundreds of injuries."
The ten elders were in a dilemma. They were both First Grade Heaven Rank Medicine Pill. How could they determine who was stronger and who was weaker?
Elder Lu suggested, "Wait until the remaining three people are done, then we will judge!"
The other nine elders nodded their heads. Not to mention Ba Mu, Wang Hao and Chiang Mao were the main characters of Pill Gathering.
No matter how dazzling the supporting roles were, they would not cover up the main characters.
At this moment, Ba Mu's pill refinement had also ended.
Two walnuts, one red and one blue, flew out of the Pill Cauldron and returned to his hands.
The Pill Cauldron gradually cooled down. It was very calm, without any unusual phenomenon.
The audience heaved a sigh of relief. If Ba Mu refined another Heaven Rank Medicine Pill, they would feel frightened.
Ba Mu stretched out a hand, and the Medicine Pill in the Pill Cauldron flew into his hand.
This Medicine Pill's entire body was crimson red. For some reason, it gave people the feeling that it was about to explode.
The ten judges came to Ba Mu's side and looked at the blood-red Medicine Pill. Then, they opened their eyes wide at the same time.
Elder Lu asked in shock, "Ba Mu, this Medicine Pill is..."
Ba Mu's empty eyes looked at the Medicine Pill in his hand. His voice sounded weak.
"This is a Second Grade Heaven Rank Scarlet Blood Pill."
"As expected..." Elder Lu took a deep breath, "I thought this Scarlet Blood Pill had already been lost, but I didn't expect to see it again in this life!"
The audience below the arena was stunned. There was clearly no unusual phenomenon, and the seemingly ordinary Medicine Pill, how could it be a second grade Heaven Rank?
Perhaps understanding the audience's thoughts, Elder Lu explained loudly, "This Crimson Blood Pill's abnormal phenomenon is undoubtedly at the second level of the Heaven Rank within the Medicine Pill!"
Elder Lu's fairness, everyone acknowledged it. The discussions gradually quieted down.
Only two people were still competing on the arena. Everyone's eyes were focused on them.
Suddenly, Ying Zheng said, "Chiang Mao has completed it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the lid of the Four Beast Cauldron soared into the sky.
A Medicine Pill that emitted an indescribable Essence Energy Undulation shone with a sun-like radiance as it shot into the sky.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
Four heaven-shaking beast roars resounded through the heavens and earth. The divine beasts carved on the sides of the cauldron turned into phantoms as they flew into the sky and chased after the Medicine Pill.
The four beasts chased after the sun! The vast and mighty scene was worthy of admiration.
A confident expression appeared on Chiang Mao's face. He had successfully concocted the Second Grade Heaven Rank Myriad Illusionary Dragon Sunflower Pill!
"Wang Hao, you are going to lose for sure!"
