Chapter 789 Level Assessment

millions of low-grade spirit stones. Fellow Daoist, are you bargaining too harshly" 。Dou Fenghu looked at Lu Xiaodao with a sullen expression. 。"If you think I'm lowballing, just keep waiting. Maybe s...Xian Zhu carbon Lu Xia Tian brought a large amount, but soon, Lu Xia Tian realized a problem. The Ming Ling Bamboo he used was obviously high-quality bamboo charcoal that ordinary advanced alchemists couldn't afford.

From the moment Lu Xia Tian stepped into the cultivation world, he had excelled in alchemy. Even during his foundation building stage, he was able to refine Jindan pills, having mastered all five types with a high success rate. At that time, Lu Xia Tian was already a highly accomplished senior alchemist.

The advancement of alchemists is indeed more difficult than cultivation. Even after so many years, Lu Xia Tian still remained at the level of a senior alchemist, never reaching the status of an alchemy master. However, among senior alchemists, Lu Xia Tian was confident that he would not lose to anyone.

As Lu Xia Tian's internal barrier could supply a large amount of Lingzhu, he had also been striving to reach the realm of an alchemy master. The Lingzhu carbon he used was naturally beyond what ordinary alchemists could use.

If it were taken out now, it would inevitably raise suspicion.

"Since you've provided spiritual objects, why not charcoal" Lu Xia Tian naturally wouldn't expose himself, and glanced at the slovenly old man with surprise.

"Are you sure you're here to assess intermediate alchemists" the slovenly old man exclaimed, slapping his forehead.

"Could it be that if the refining fails, you'll have to pay spirit stones" Lu Xia Tian said with a smile.

“This kid is just putting on a show. If he had any sense, he’d get off the stage already and spare us the charade.”

Lu Xia Tian's voice could be heard clearly, Zong Yue listened and couldn't help but laugh. Bamboo charcoal for refining medicine is a must-have for every alchemist, and they usually carry it with them. Unless they have their own spiritual fire or are in certain specific locations with earth fire for alchemy furnaces. It was really rare to find an alchemist like Lu Xia Tian who didn't even have bamboo charcoal for refining.

"What's with this guy I think we should just leave, it's a waste of time to stay here." Dai Jincheng, beside Gu Tanjian, said helplessly.

Let's just wait and see. Anyway, the Zhanxian Tower won't open for another half hour. We'll be wasting time if we go early. The guy on stage, I wonder if he really has any skill or if he's just all talk and wasting my time. If I ever run into him again, I'll definitely make him pay!

At this point, Gu Tan Jian no longer had much hope. He glanced at Zong Yue, who was smug and triumphant, feeling even more resentful. Even the black-faced youth on stage now disgusted him.

These people around were mostly cultivators at the Golden Core stage. Hearing what everyone said, and considering that she wasn't entirely ignorant about alchemy, although she couldn't refine it herself, she had heard some things. At this moment, Xiao Yun's heart turned cold as ice. She bit her lips and looked at Lu Xiaoxiao on the stage.

Xiao Hei Leopard was now at a loss.

"Haha, this kid is completely an idiot. There's no way to refine medicine like this! He really thinks refining medicine is like a commoner cooking, just throwing everything into a pot and calling it stew"

The black-faced youth in front of them took the Lingzhu carbon from the ragged old man, and immediately lit a fire, raising it to an extreme intensity. Then he threw various spiritual materials into it one after another, with very little time between each addition. Zong Yue, who had previously thought nothing of Lu Xiaoteng's cultivation, now completely let go of his worries and laughed out loud. He had never seen anyone build a foundation like this before.

The hotter the charcoal fire burns, the faster the spirits are attracted, and the more mixed their energy becomes, making it difficult to control. The chance of refining a failed pill increases exponentially. Zong Yue was also a junior alchemist who had refined a few batches of foundation-building pills himself. He dared not be as reckless as the young man in black.

Ruan Bi'ru shook her head, also finding the actions of this black-faced young man somewhat incomprehensible. They weren't even in a hurry, it just seemed like he was messing around.

“This kid, courting death and not afraid of blowing up the furnace.” Zong Yue laughed at the same time, but the ragged old man saw a little something. Lu Xiaoteng’s method of putting in spirit medicine and controlling the fire was extremely skilled.

This isn't something an outsider could pull off. It's just that the slovenly old man had been refining pills for many years, and he couldn't help but worry for Lu Xia Tian in his heart, thinking that this kid probably wanted to show off, but alchemy is all about success or failure. Only if it succeeds can you show off. It doesn't matter how fast you refine it, a failed pill is useless.

> Please note that the "" and "t his eyesight was limited, and he hadn't noticed it for a while. Soon, Lu Xia Tian let out another surprised exclamation. The previous snake-headed monsters that had disappeared reappeared around him...
