Translator: 549690339

Hearing that Cheng Long was indeed going to refine the Innate Spirit Pill, the crowd was astounded.

“Since the Second Prince has taken Jiang Yu as his mentor, his alchemy has improved miraculously in the past six months, and with the Cold Spirit Bone

Fire, it’s quite possible he might actually succeed in refining the Dragon-Tiger Elixir, ” Feng Xing said with a smile.

Wu Qi said with a smile, “Master Jiang Yu has spoken very highly of the Second Prince. With his attempt at the Dragon-Tiger Elixir, there’s still a chance for success.”

Clearly, both of them believed that Cheng Long could refine the Dragon-Tiger Elixir.

Given the choice between Yang Xiaotian and Cheng Long, they naturally hoped that Cheng Long would win.

Jiang Yu had given them guidance, and they were currently serving the royal family of Divine Sea Country.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Cheng Long did not say another word and summoned the pale-colored Cold Spirit Bone Fire.

Seeing Cheng Long intended to refine the Dragon-Tiger Elixir, Chen Zihan gritted her teeth and also took out several dozen types of medicinal herbs required for the Dragon-Tiger Elixir.

The crowd was taken aback at the sight.

Seeing this, Li Wen smiled; this girl still hadn’t changed, always liking to show off her strength and never accepting defeat.

Following Chen Zihan, Deng Yichun, Hu Xing, Huang Tingting, and others also took out the medicinal herbs needed to refine the Dragon-Tiger Elixir. Rather than admitting defeat, they preferred to take a gamble.

Taking a gamble still held a hope for victory.

Of course, they were not willing to lose to Yang Xiaotian.

Seeing that Cheng Long, Chen Zihan, Deng Yichun, and others all wanted to refine the Innate Spirit Pill, Yang Xiaotian also took out the medicinal herbs for the Dragon-Tiger Elixir.

Originally, the fact that Cheng Long, Chen Zihan, Deng Yichun, and the others were going to refine the Innate Spirit Pill was a surprise in itself. Now, the crowd was dumbfounded to see that Yang Xiaotian also intended to refine the Innate Spirit Pill.

What kind of situation was this?

A group of one-star Alchemists were actually all going to refine Innate Spirit Pills.

“The calves are not afraid of the tigers,” Peng Zhigang sighed from the judges’ stand.

After Yang Xiaotian took out the medicinal herbs for the Dragon-Tiger Elixir, he waved his hands, and the Heaven and Earth Fire surged forth.

Cheng Long, Chen Zihan, Deng Yichun, Hu Xing, and the others still harbored a stroke of luck, didn’t they? Now, he was about to completely crush that last bit of hope in their hearts.

Looking at the approaching Heaven and Earth Fire, Yang Xiaotian flicked his finger, and a spark flew out, hitting one of the medicinal herbs on the ground with impeccable accuracy.

As the medicinal herb took flight, Yang Xiaotian didn’t stop; his fingers kept flicking.

Several more sparks flew out in succession.

These sparks flew in a straight line, hitting the airborne medicinal herb.

With each strike from the sparks, the medicinal herb continued to melt.

But that was not all; Yang Xiaotian flicked his fingers again, this time two at a time, and suddenly, more than a dozen sparks flew out.

The medicinal herb kept being struck, bursting into splendid sparks.

The crowd looked at each other, puzzled.

“What kind of technique is this?” Wu Qi asked in amazement, unable to help but look towards Li Wen.

Li Wen was just as bewildered.

He had never seen this method of refining medicine before.

It didn’t require the use of a Medicine Cauldron to melt the medicinal herbs.

However, every time Yang Xiaotian flicked a spark, it hit its target with extraordinary precision, and the intensity of each spark he controlled was just right, not burning the herb to ash.

At first glance, it didn’t seem like much, but upon closer inspection, it was breathtaking.

By the time the airborne medicinal herb fell into the Medicine Cauldron, it had been completely melted into a liquid by the succeeding sparks flicked out by Yang Xiaotian.

Then, Yang Xiaotian used the same method to melt the second herb.

After that came the third, the fourth, the fifth.

Before anyone realized it, the dozens of medicinal herbs had all melted into liquid.

Yang Xiaotian clapped his hands, and dozens of sparks hit the Medicine Cauldron all at once, causing it to spin.

As it spun, wisps of medicinal smoke drifted out.

Yang Xiaotian’s palms did not stop moving, each clap resulting in dozens of fire stars bombarding the Medicine Cauldron.

Dozens of fire stars, like a meteor shower from afar, were pleasing to the eye. When they struck the Medicine Cauldron, the fire splashed about in a burst of spectacular color.

From within the Medicine Cauldron, wisps of medicinal smoke continued to float out.

This novel method of alchemy broadened everyone’s horizons.

In Yang Xiaotian’s hands, alchemy seemed no longer an arduous task, but an art, a “performance”? Yet it was precisely this type of performance that shook one’s soul.

Liu An was one of the top Alchemists in the Tiandou Imperial Kingdom, but this was also his first time witnessing such alchemy technique.

He looked questioningly at his master, only to find his master staring intently at Yang Xiaotian without blinking.

Indeed, Wu Qi was concentrating on every move Yang Xiaotian made, finding each action natural and perfect.

Yang Xiaotian stood there as if he had fused with Heaven and Earth, with the Medicine Cauldron, and with the Heaven and Earth Fire as one.

In sword cultivation, there is the unity of man and sword, and in alchemy, there is also the unity of man and cauldron.

In Wu Qi’s eyes, Yang Xiaotian had achieved Man Cauldron Unity.

Once Man Cauldron Unity was achieved, the method of alchemy was no longer that important.

Wu Qi completely disregarded everything else, his eyes fixed solely on Yang Xiaotian.

Time seemed to slow down.

But when Yang Xiaotian suddenly stopped, Wu Qi felt a sense of loss.

His look towards Yang Xiaotian had completely changed.

Previously, even if Yang Xiaotian had tamed the Flame of Star, he did not win his true approval, and even knowing that Yang Xiaotian had comprehended the Hundred Swords and become the Sword Hall Master, he was only amazed and not fully convinced.

But now, Yang Xiaotian’s position in his heart had completely changed.

He looked at Yang Xiaotian, fists clenched tightly. At this moment, he made a decision that he would be grateful for the rest of his life.

After Yang Xiaotian stopped, the crowd around was still deeply immersed in the alchemy scene they had just witnessed, especially Li Wen, Wu Qi, and others who still had the images and motions of Yang Xiaotian’s alchemy playing repeatedly in their minds.

Watching Yang Xiaotian perform alchemy had sparked an epiphany in them.

An epiphany that could break through their shackles.

Only when Yang Xiaotian spoke and asked the Appraiser to appraise the Elixir, did Li Wen and others wake from that indescribable state of mind.

This time, it was Lin Yuan who personally appraised Yang Xiaotian’s work again.

Lin Yuan approached the Medicine Cauldron, nervous and uneasy.

When he peered into the cauldron, he saw a crystal-clear Elixir lying quietly inside, with what seemed like the sound of dragons and tigers roaring from within it.

Faint shadows of dragons and tigers were visible.

Lin Yuan’s hands trembled as he inverted the Elixir from the cauldron onto the prepared Jade Dishware under everyone’s gaze. Thump!

The Jade Dishware emitted a crisp, moving sound.

Li Wen, Wu Qi, Feng Xing, Peng Zhigang, and others gasped as soon as they saw the Elixir.

“Excellent, the Dragon-Tiger Elixir!”

Superior grade was often unattainable.

Excellent grade was almost the highest quality available on the market.

The moment Lin Yuan poured out the excellent grade Dragon-Tiger Elixir, Cheng Long, Chen Zihan, Deng Yichun, Hu Xing, and others felt utter despair, their last shreds of hope obliterated.

Their faces turned completely ashen. All was silent in Heaven and Earth.

“Divine Yang!”

“Divine Yang!”

Suddenly, the teachers and students of the Divine Sword Academy cried out together, their excitement resembling how they felt when Yang Xiaotian had fully comprehended the Hundred Swords..
