Chapter 352 - 352 351 Pill Fragrance Formation

352: Chapter 351 Pill Fragrance Formation 352: Chapter 351 Pill Fragrance Formation Lin Xuan’s failure caused a sensation among various parties, but he himself was immersed in deep thought.

The difficulty of refining a Fourth-grade Elixir went beyond his imagination.

Succeeding in creating it was already defying the heavens; elevating its grade further was evidently impossible.

As people were still discussing Lin Xuan’s failure, a fragrance of pills once again wafted from the stone platform.

Although this fragrance was significantly weaker than Lin Xuan’s earlier attempt, it was still not ordinary.

This aroma instantly captivated everyone.

“Hey, it’s Song Qianqian from the Medicine Emperor Institute!”

“This aroma, could it be a Third-grade Elixir?”

Several elders looked carefully, and it wasn’t long before they abruptly lifted their heads.

“It is indeed a Third-grade Elixir!”

Everyone was shocked, looking towards the stone platform with incredulous eyes.

“Indeed, a Second-grade Inscription Alchemist can in fact refine a Third-grade Elixir—a true genius.”

“Haha, Miss Qianqian is amazing!” people from the Medicine Emperor Institute cheered.

On the stone platform, Song Qianqian’s face was flushed red, and her eyes brimmed with pride.

In front of her was a bronze-colored pill furnace, which, though not as exceptional as the Red Cloud Spirit Furnace, was still extraordinary.

It was with this pill furnace that she had refined the Third-grade Elixir.

The fragrance of the medicine continued to spread; however, at that moment, another wave of pill fragrance arrived.

Its richness was even three parts better than Song Qianqian’s.

“Another Third-grade Elixir!” people exclaimed once again.

“This is a Third-grade superior Elixir!” Many elders showed astonishment; such a pill, even for them, held a considerable rate of failure.

Yet now, a young person had successfully refined one.

“It’s Duan Fei, another person from the Medicine Emperor Institute!”

“It seems the Medicine Emperor Institute has two disciples who have managed to refine Third-grade Elixirs; there’s a good chance they’ll win this time.”

Song Yunxing’s expression was very pleased as he applauded and laughed, his face showing a victorious smile.

As long as the pills from both were completed, he would have an absolute advantage.

Elder Hei Xin’s gaze flickered, his only concern now being He Nian; if he managed to craft a Fourth-grade Elixir, there could be significant trouble.

As for Lin Xuan, he was completely dismissed.

Duan Fei’s face was arrogant, continually patting the pill furnace, aiming to complete the final step.

“Qianqian, let me take the victory this time,” Duan Fei said with a smile to Song Qianqian not far away.

Being a Third-grade Alchemist, he could differentiate the quality of the pills from their aroma.

“Mm,” Song Qianqian nodded.

Duan Fei was a disciple of her Medicine Emperor Institute; naturally, she was happy for him to win.

“Hehe, isn’t it a bit early to be proud right now?” a discordant voice spoke.

“Don’t even think about victory while I’m around!” He Nian let out a cold laugh.

The expressions of Duan Fei and Song Qianqian changed slightly; they turned and looked towards He Nian in the corner.

Suddenly, a pill fragrance emerged from He Nian’s pill furnace, transforming into a smoke serpent in the air.

“Pill Fragrance Formation!”

Watching the smoke serpent, some highly skilled Alchemy Masters exclaimed.

The faces of Duan Fei and Song Qianqian turned quite grim.

“Pill Fragrance Formation?

What does that mean?” Warriors around were puzzled, curiously looking towards the sky.

Up in the stands, President Meng Chuan’s face turned somber as he muttered lowly, “Pill Fragrance Formation is only exhibited by Fourth-grade or higher elixirs, and it belongs to special elixirs.”

“That He Nian could cause a Pill Fragrance Formation clearly indicates the high grade of the elixir he refined.”

“Duan Fei and Song Qianqian’s elixirs are simply not enough in front of He Nian, could we really be defeated this time?”

Not only was President Meng Chuan shocked, but the faces of the people from the Medicine Emperor Institute and Dan King Hall were also very ugly.

Elder Hei Xin clenched the cane in his hand tighter, “These damn monsters, they actually possess the skill of Dan Fragrance Formation!”

“It seems the opponent is well-prepared,” Old Man Di Que sighed too, “Lin Xuan, now we can only count on you.”

When the others understood what Dan Fragrance Formation implied, they were all astounded.

Fourth-grade Elixir, and an extremely special one at that.

If nothing goes wrong, the champion will probably be He Nian.

Duan Fei and Song Qianqian both had faces ashen as if they had lost their souls.

Dan Fragrance Formation, that was a technique only her father Song Yunxing knew, and now it was being used by a fifteen-year-old girl.

The blow was too big for them.

Looking at the elixirs in the pill furnace before them, the two felt an urge to cry but had no tears.

“Haha, the champion this time, I will take it!” He Nian’s voice rang out.

The surroundings erupted into noise, seemingly unable to believe such an outcome.

Could the Dan King Hall and Medicine Emperor Institute really be defeated?

“That’s not certain!” A voice resounded, decisive as a hammered nail.

“Who is it?” The people from the He Family’s complexions changed slightly, angrily looking toward the stone platform.

Even He Nian turned her head to look.

“Lin Xuan, it’s Lin Xuan!” the crowd exclaimed.

“Just you?

A failure in alchemy!” He Nian sneered disdainfully.

“Failure in making elixirs is more than normal, if you can’t even accept this much, then what’s the point in training in alchemy?

Might as well sell tofu instead!”

Lin Xuan’s face regained composure, clearly, he had recovered from the previous failure.

“This time, I’m going to clinch the championship!”

Lin Xuan’s voice carried confidence, like sharp sword light slicing the sky.

Seeing the firm and confident Lin Xuan, the disciples of the Dan King Hall all cheered.

Old Man Di Que and President Meng Chuan also smiled, “Good to have you back, there’s still time, there’s still hope.”

Duan Fei and Song Qianqian also stared blankly at Lin Xuan, somehow feeling like they were facing a giant.

“Humph, stop bluffing!

Less than half the time is left, do you think Fourth-grade Elixirs are that easy to refine?” He Nian scoffed coldly, “Accept the reality, lowly human!”

Lin Xuan ignored He Nian and suddenly stood up.

He put away the muddy pill furnace, his pill robe fluttering without wind, and engravings continuously appeared in his eyes.

“Putting away the pill furnace?

Trying to do alchemy with bare hands?

How naive!” He Nian sneered.

The others also stared blankly at Lin Xuan, not knowing what he was about to do.

“Kid, you’ve finally figured it out,” Lord of Wine chuckled to himself within the mysterious small sword.

Lin Xuan swung his sleeve robe, engraving patterns of elixirs around him, forming a peculiar Pill Formation.

Suddenly, the translucent Pill Formation enveloped the stone platform he was on.

His fingers danced, quickly separating and decomposing herbs, then suspending them above the Pill Formation.

The whole process was swift, flowing smoothly without a single pause.

At this moment, Lin Xuan had completely let go, facing everything at ease like a reincarnation of the Pill King.

“Such techniques, such audacity, truly rare in the world!” President Meng Chuan admired, “I wonder what kind of master can teach such a disciple!”

Other Inscription Alchemists were also stunned; Lin Xuan’s alchemy techniques were too shocking, completely overturning their understanding.

“He can refine in this way?” The Third Hall Master swallowed hard.

“He’s actually using Spiritual Energy to strip Spirit Grass?”

Exclamations came one after another, everyone watching Lin Xuan intently.
