C304 Success or Failure(1)
This big guy...
The altar was so tall that it was extremely eye-catching in the Tiger Slope. Ye Xiao, who suddenly saw it, couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.
What was it used for?
Refining pills and making medicine required this kind of thing?
"Could it be related to the legendary Jing He Secret Manual?"
Ye Xiao saw a few figures that were faintly discernible in the boundless flames on the altar. He immediately focused his gaze and discovered a few familiar figures.
Lia Wudi.
Lia Jun!
Besides him, there were also a few young men wearing fiery red armor. They were wearing the uniform of Ardent Sun Clan. Although the Qi that they emitted was not comparable to Lia Wudi's, it was still not enough. Obviously, they were all young experts of Ardent Sun Clan. Moreover, Ye Xiao had seen most of them at the banquet last night. Now that he saw them again, he was no longer surprised.
When he looked over, he realized that Lia Wudi, Lia Jun, and the others weren't standing on the arena. They were just floating in the void, standing in the middle of the rising flames.
There was only one person on the altar.
He was a young man with a very luxurious robe, a sharp mouth, and a monkey-like cheeks, and an unpleasant appearance. He was the only one standing at the top of the altar. In front of him was a table carved with jade. On the table, there was a medicinal cauldron and other items needed for refining medicine. At this moment, he was agilely gathering and refining the spirit herbs in his hand.
He was Jiang Hanyue?
He had just started?
Ye Xiao was very familiar with Jiang Hanyue's movements. It was a necessary step before concocting the pill. Refining the spiritual herbs in advance was the only way to maximize the potency of the herbs and make them fuse into the pill furnace.
Of course, for someone like him who controlled the Qi Pill, this step could be completely avoided.
"Has the real refinement not begun yet?"
Ye Xiao's brows raised, and he was slightly disappointed. However, he quickly calmed his heart down. He prepared to observe carefully to see if the Jing River Secret Manual was as miraculous as the legends said. However, when his gaze fell on the tall altar in front of him, he couldn't help but slightly frown.
What exactly is this sacrificial altar for?
It was filled with ordinary flames.
Was it really useful for pill refinement?
Ye Xiao thought of the rumbling and shaking sounds from last night. Now that he thought about it, it should be the warriors of Ardent Sun Clan who were building this altar overnight, but...
Just as Ye Xiao was secretly thinking about the mystery behind it, behind him... The soldier that followed him finally caught up and stood by Ye Xiao's side. It seemed like he could see the confusion between Ye Xiao's brows, as if there was some unhappiness in his heart. It said in a low voice:
"Young Master Ye, you are also unhappy with this altar?"
"You don't know, we brothers have a hundred people, and it took us six hours to build it. It was so tiring, but it was only for him to show off."
"This Jiang Hanyue really isn't a good person!"
The soldier's voice grew lower and lower, as if it feared that Jiang Hanyue would hear his complaints. When Ye Xiao heard this, his spirit shivered, and he said in surprise:
"Show off?"
"What do you mean?"
There was obvious dissatisfaction in soldier's eyes. When he saw Ye Xiao asking, he spoke even more straightforwardly.
"I just want to show off."
"I also heard about it from the Chief Commander. When Jiang Hanyue came, what? He also requested to build this arena and concoct pills in front of so many people. Although he had said that the effect would be better, who wouldn't be able to tell? He just wanted to show off his identity and ability as Medicine Saint's disciple!"
" The commander said that this isn't the first time he has done such a thing. When he was concocting pills outside the temple, he had also invited everyone to attend the ceremony when he was selecting auspicious moments. "
Invite everyone to watch the ceremony?
This Jiang Hanyue was so ostentatious?
Ye Xiao frowned slightly when he heard this. His impression of Jiang Hanyue became a little worse.
Childish!
Ye Xiao looked at the figure on the altar that was like a moon surrounded by stars and could not help but shake his head.
Of course, Ye Xiao also admitted that one person had the style of one person. For the sake of his reputation, Jiang Hanyue had drawn such a huge war. It wasn't impossible. To him, this was an extremely good thing. But because he wanted to publicize his reputation and ability, it brought unnecessary trouble to others. This didn't conform to Ye Xiao's values.
Furthermore...
"Lia Wudi is angry too?"
Ye Xiao could not help but let his imagination run wild. Although they had only known each other for a short period of time, they had only exchanged pointers and had a one-night cocktail party. Ye Xiao felt that his ability to judge people was quite good. Lia Wudi had a straightforward personality. This kind of person had a special characteristic, which was that he usually wouldn't take things to heart. He was very tolerant and magnanimous.
Jiang Hanyue's arrival had made him angry...
"He's really amazing."
Ye Xiao sneered. A thought flashed across his mind, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, this was a matter between Jiang Hanyue and Lia Wudi, and it had nothing to do with him. The reason he came here this time was mainly because of the halo of Medicine Saint's disciple on Jiang Hanyue's body.
Of course, there was one more thing -
Jing Jing He Secret Manual!
Finally.
After a short wait.
"Pa!"
The sound echoed throughout the silent Tiger Slope.
Ye Xiao saw through the flames that Jiang Hanyue had finally finished refining the last spiritual herb. One of his hands landed on the pill furnace on the jade table in front of him.
It was finally about to begin?
Ye Xiao's spirit shook. His eyes sparkled. He was about to use the Myriad Origin Divine Eye to carefully observe Jiang Hanyue's every movement when suddenly, the crowd in front of him began to discuss and create a commotion.
"Hey, Brother Lu, do you think Medicine Saint's disciple will succeed in refining this time? He had just failed once. He didn't even take a break before starting. Isn't this too rash? "
Failed?
Jiang Hanyue had failed once just now?
Ye Xiao was surprised when he heard this, and he couldn't help but be attracted to it.
Coincidentally, someone responded.
"It should be about the same."
"We have all tried to concoct pills and pharmaceuticals, no matter how amazing a genius is. No matter how talented a genius is, it's hard to avoid the possibility of failure. Besides, he was Medicine Saint's disciple. Regarding concocting pills and concocting medicine... Definitely better than us. Perhaps he had already found the reason for his failure just now. I feel that the chances of success this time should be quite high."0
The reply was reasonable and convincing. Even Ye Xiao could not help but nod his head.
Indeed.
There were too many factors that led to success and failure when it came to alchemy and medicine. Some were external factors, while others were problems with alchemists. As an alchemist with a legacy, he could only minimize the internal factors. However, it could not be said that there was none at all.
Failure was normal.
"No wonder Lia Wudi and Lia Jun's expressions are so solemn. It turns out that they have failed once."
The crowd stopped making noise. Ye Xiao regained his senses and focused his attention on the altar once again. Right at this moment -
"Pa!"
Another soft sound was heard. Ye Xiao saw Jiang Hanyue's fingers tremble. A stalk of spirit grass, as though it was being pulled by a thread, steadily fell into the medicinal cauldron. Immediately, the fog rose and merged with the surrounding fire. It boiled and spread. Like the fog of the immortal realm, it reflected colorful colors under the sunlight. It was fascinating.
It began!
Ye Xiao decisively urged the Myriad Origin Divine Eye and looked through the medicinal cauldron. He saw that within this medicinal cauldron... The spirit grass rolled and the medicinal strength rose without end. Following the trembling of Jiang Hanyue's fingertip, it circulated indeterminately. If there was a spirit, it would release the essence of heaven and earth that he had accumulated for an unknown number of years.
Hu!
It was like a spring rain that sprinkled down, lubricating everything silently.
It was even more like a painting, beautiful and beautiful.
