Chapter 125 Fifth-grade elixir: Soul-restoring purple elixir,
"Elder Gu He, can you tell what grade of elixir Xiao Huohuo and Holden are refining now?" Sitting in the VIP seat, Yun Yun looked at the two strange elixir scents wafting from below and tilted her head to look at the ancient river beside her.
Gu He shook his head and explained, "It is not certain yet. We can only see it when it is formed. Before the fourth-grade pill is formed, it will produce a different kind of pill fragrance. The stronger the pill fragrance, the higher the grade of the pill he refined. When the fifth-grade pill is formed, it will produce substantial energy ripples out of thin air because of the excessive energy contained. With the concentration of the pill fragrance they refined, there is no doubt that it has reached the peak of the fourth grade at least. But to confirm whether it is the fifth grade, we still need to see whether substantial energy ripples will be produced when the pill is formed."
Yun Yun suddenly realized and praised: "He is a talented little fellow. Regardless of whether he wins the championship today, he will be famous after the conference is over."
Gu He smiled bitterly and nodded, "Indeed, compared to him, I feel like I have lived a miserable life these years."
As the two were talking, a circle of energy ripples exploded in the most conspicuous corner of the square. The ripples carried a strong purple aroma of elixir and spread out. In a moment, the whole square was filled with the aroma of elixir.
Looking at the energy ripples in the air, Hai Bodong, Jia Xingtian, Yun Yun, and Gu He stood up and stood beside Fama, staring intently at the center of the ripples.
Hai Bodong, in particular, was looking forward to it eagerly.
Because Xiao Se was using his soul perception to try his best to control the green flame and refine the purple pill of resurrection.
"Energy ripples, this is a fifth-grade elixir," Fama said in a trembling voice.
Suddenly, Gu He and Fama's faces changed. In their perception, Xiao Se's medicine cauldron seemed to be unable to maintain its power. The originally peaceful flame inside suddenly became chaotic.
Gu He said in a deep voice: "Not good, the medicine cauldron can't hold on any longer."
"Old Fama, haven't you prepared everything? How come such a great Alchemist Guild doesn't even have a better medicine cauldron?" Upon hearing this, Jia Xingtian tilted his head and said dissatisfiedly to Fama.
Fama shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't give it, but..."
As he spoke, Fama recalled the scene of yesterday. When he offered to give Xiao Se a better medicine cauldron, the latter's face was full of joy. However, after he took off the medicine cauldron on his head, Fama could still vividly remember the look of disgust on Xiao Se's face.
After a moment's silence, Fama sighed and continued, "Alas, at this point we can only hope for a miracle to happen."
Almost everyone in the VIP seats and the audience seats stared at the center of the square. There, the green flame above the medicine cauldron seemed to be about to burst through the lid. Cracks spread across the surface of the cauldron, and wisps of green flames bloomed from the cracks. Under the scorching of the green flames, the surrounding air seemed to become a little unreal and distorted.
When they saw Xiao Se's sweaty and red face, they couldn't help but scream in a low voice.
But if you look closely, you can see that Xiao Se's face does not show any sign of anxiety at this moment, and there is even a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
"I'm going to lose. I'm going to lose to the medicine cauldron." Feeling that the medicine cauldron was about to reach its limit, Fama sighed, and a bitter look appeared on his old face.
Normally, an ordinary two-mouth medicine cauldron would not explode so easily as long as one was careful. However, Xiao Se's medicine cauldron had been used to refine high-level pills more than once, and it had already exceeded its endurance limit. This was the main reason why no matter how careful Xiao Se was, he still could not avoid the explosion.
After a while, the desolate medicine cauldron finally couldn't hold on anymore. A sharp cracking sound came from the crack of the medicine cauldron. Then, with a loud bang, the medicine cauldron exploded. Smoke and dust filled the sky.
"Ah!" Hearing the explosion, the audience sighed with regret.
"Haha, idiot, to refine a fifth-grade elixir, you choose this broken medicine cauldron that no one would take even if it was thrown on the street. As today's champion, I will accept it without hesitation." Looking at Xiao Se blowing up the cauldron, Holden smiled coldly. As the elixir in his hand accelerated to take shape, he spoke sarcastically to Xiao Se.
"Really? Why don't I think so?"
As the words fell, a ball of green flame suddenly emerged from the smoke and dust where Xiao Se was. The flame curled up and burned all the smoke and dust around it in a moment.
Looking at Xiao Se again, he was holding a medicine cauldron formed by cyan flames in his hands. In the medicine cauldron, a round pill the size of a pigeon egg, with a deep purple body, lay quietly inside, rolling at a constant speed.
As early as when he was in the Warcraft Mountains, he had tried to refine pills without a cauldron, and after his soul power was upgraded to the fifth level, he was able to master it.
It just takes more time than using the medicine cauldron.
"This is, alchemy without a cauldron!" Gu He and Fama exclaimed at the same time on the high platform.
"Alchemy without a cauldron? Can it be possible to continue refining without a medicine cauldron?" Hai Bodong's face changed, and he glanced at Fama on the side and asked in confusion.
He was not an alchemist, so he was very unfamiliar with the Wu Ding Alchemy Cauldron. However, this question was related to whether his cultivation could be restored, so he asked this question.
"Yeah." Fama nodded and looked at Xiao Se in the field. His cloudy old eyes were full of admiration. He smiled and explained, "It is said that when an alchemist reaches a certain level, he can refine pills even without a medicine cauldron. So far, this is the second time I have seen someone refine pills without a cauldron."
At this point, Fama recalled the old man he met when he was young, and slowly fell into deep thought.
At the same time, in the square.
Holden's pill finally took shape and also exploded a circle of energy ripples that seemed to be substantial. The ripples spread out with a strong red pill fragrance, and in a moment, occupied half of the square, competing with Xiao Se's pill.
"Haha. Even if you can make an elixir without a cauldron, the elixir I am about to make will be effective against Douhuang strongmen. There is no way you can beat me, hahaha." Holden laughed.
"Then I'll wait." Xiao Se smiled calmly. Among the fifth-grade elixirs, he really couldn't find anything that could beat the Fuling Purple Pill. As for Holden's elixir, Xiao Se already had some guesses in his mind: Fuyuan Pill, a fifth-grade elixir, was especially used to heal some serious injuries, and its medicinal properties were mild, and it would not cause any damage to the already injured body. It was an excellent elixir for healing serious injuries.
There is a difference between recovering from injuries and recovering from cultivation.
After all, to heal injuries, if there is no recovery pill, you can choose other lower-level pills for healing. Although the effect is not as good, it will take some time to recover.
But the cultivation is different, and the Soul-Restoring Purple Pill can work up to the Douhuang level. At the Douhuang level, without special opportunities, every breakthrough is extremely difficult, and it is not something that can be achieved easily in a few months. The time spent on re-cultivation is even longer. However, the Soul-Restoring Purple Pill can save the time of re-cultivation. Such a pill is precious.
