?Chapter 823: Chapter 366: Successful Assessment, Joining the Elixir Alliance_2 Chapter 823: Chapter 366: Successful Assessment, Joining the Elixir Alliance_2 Inside the great hall’s inner circle was a high platform wrapped within a Formation.
This platform was densely covered with Formation Patterns that extended from the platform to the entirety of the hall, reaching into the rooms on the periphery.
The rooms, cordoned off at the periphery, were all the same; each contained a Pill Furnace.
With just a glance, Lin Jing understood clearly.
These rooms were individual Alchemy Rooms.
Next,
Elder Qi pointed at two rooms ahead and said to Lin Jing and Changyun Yuanlei,
“Each of you choose a room.
Once you enter, the Formation will activate, and you can begin alchemy.”
“Oh, right…”
“During alchemy, you may use your own Pill Furnace.”
Lin Jing and Changyun Yuanlei both nodded and then each walked towards one of the rooms.
After they entered the rooms, Elder Qi had already moved to the platform in the middle.
Shortly after, the Formation that covered the entire hall began to activate, and the white light emitted from the Formation spread from under Elder Qi’s feet.
Soon, it permeated the whole hall,
as well as the rooms where Lin Jing and Changyun Yuanlei were enclosed.
With the activation of the Formation, their alchemy had officially started.
Lin Jing, unruffled, immediately took out a package and opened it.
Various Spirit Plants inside caught his eye instantly.
These Spirit Plants were all for the concoction of the Qingming Pill.
Lin Jing then picked them out, one by one to inspect.
After the inspection, Lin Jing couldn’t help but nod in approval.
All the Spirit Plants were in good condition, and their quality was commendable.
After checking the Spirit Plants, Lin Jing took out the Cloud Patterned Purple-Gold Furnace from his Space Ring and set it in front of him.
Once he had set the Pill Furnace up, Lin Jing did not delay and immediately began operating the Divine Fire Triple Realm, gathering the colorless flame to start the initial refinement of the Spirit Plants.
While both were busy refining Spirit Plants, Elder Qi looked up, his gaze sweeping across both of them.
“Huh?”
Elder Qi’s gaze lingered when he saw Lin Jing gathering the colorless flame, prompting a soft ‘huh’ from him as he stared a bit longer.
However,
it was only for a moment; then Elder Qi withdrew his gaze and pulled out an Elixir Recipe, studying it closely.
He seemed to pay no attention to the assessment of Lin Jing and Changyun Yuanlei.
After starting, Lin Jing and Changyun Yuanlei no longer heeded the external environment and focused intently on refining the Spirit Plants…
…
…
Thus, time gradually passed.
Lin Jing, Changyun Yuanlei, and Elder Qi, really did not disturb each other, each busy with their tasks.
Any other person would likely not behave this way, but Elder Qi was different, never once paying attention to Lin Jing and Changyun Yuanlei after the initial start, until veering past four hours when rich Elixir Fragrance wafted from the front Alchemy Room; then Elder Qi finally raised his head, looking towards the two.
At this moment,
Lin Jing was still sitting cross-legged in front of the Pill Furnace, carefully controlling the bottom flame, while in the other Alchemy Room, Changyun Yuanlei had already risen, increasing the flames to start the final Solidifying Pill phase.
Lin Jing was concocting a Seventh Grade Elixir Medicine, while Changyun Yuanlei was crafting a Sixth Rank Elixir Medicine,
Thus, the time Lin Jing needed to concoct his Elixir Medicine was naturally longer than Changyun Yuanlei’s.
And that rich Elixir Fragrance naturally drifted from Changyun Yuanlei’s Pill Furnace.
As time slowly passed, this Elixir Fragrance grew increasingly potent.
In less than half an hour, Changyun Yuanlei’s concoction was complete.
Having finished crafting the Elixir Medicine, Changyun Yuanlei packed up the Elixir Medicine and the Pill Furnace, causing Elder Qi to deactivate the Formation around Changyun Yuanlei’s Alchemy Room.
?????.??
Afterward, Changyun Yuanlei exited and came to Elder Qi’s side, passing the Elixir Medicine to him.
Elder Qi received the Elixir Medicine, inspected it briefly, then nodded to Changyun Yuanlei and said,
“Just wait here until he’s finished.”
With that, Elder Qi turned his attention back to Lin Jing, ignoring Changyun Yuanlei.
Changyun Yuanlei nodded and stood there obediently, watching Lin Jing, who was still busy with alchemy.
…
When the Elixir Fragrance wafted through again, it was half an hour later.
After ten hours of concoction, Lin Jing’s batch of Elixir Medicine had also reached its final Solidifying Pill phase.
Lin Jing circulated his cultivation technique to accelerate the flow of spiritual power, making the colorless flame he was condensing even more vigorous.
In the furnace, the medicinal liquid that had already merged into a single mass was also starting to take shape, and the elixir fragrance drifting in the air was becoming increasingly rich.
…
…
About an hour passed, and just as the elixir fragrance grew more intense, filling the entire examination venue, Lin Jing retracted the flame at that moment.
Needless to say, by now, Lin Jing’s batch of elixir furnace medicine had finally been refined.
Next.
Lin Jing opened the pill furnace, and instantly, that rich elixir fragrance rushed out overwhelmingly.
At the same time, several elixir pills began to slowly rise from within the pill furnace and quickly emerged from it.
Seeing this, Lin Jing immediately stretched out his hand.
The several elixir pills, as if guided, flew into the palm of Lin Jing’s hand.
Afterwards, Lin Jing looked into his palm.
This batch of elixir produced a total of six pills.
Among them, two were supreme elixir.
Just one was enough to indicate that Lin Jing had passed this assessment.
But Lin Jing had refined two.
He had refined the Qingming Pill many times before at the Changyun Clan, and his proficiency made it unnecessary to use bonus attachment for cheating.
Thus, in this assessment, Lin Jing didn’t use the bonus attachment, relying solely on his own true skill.
Apart from the two supreme elixir, the remaining four were two superior-grade, one medium-grade, and one low-grade elixir medicine.
In a batch with two supreme-grade elixir, this production of Qingming Pills was considered supremely excellent among seventh-grade alchemists.
TMost seventh-grade alchemists could not refine them at all; only those seasoned alchemists who had been promoted to seventh-grade for a significant time and had long been famous could occasionally produce them.
After inspecting the elixir pills in his hand, Lin Jing immediately stored them in a jade vial.
Having secured the elixir pills, Lin Jing also collected the pill furnace.
At this time, the formation in the Alchemy Room was already open, and Lin Jing, holding the jade vial, walked out of the Alchemy Room to Elder Qi.
Next.
Lin Jing passed the jade vial in his hand.
Elder Qi took the jade vial, opened it to look inside, then looked deeply at Lin Jing and said,
“Not bad…”
“Your mastery in the Alchemy Dao is extraordinary, to refine two supreme elixir in a single batch is no small feat.
With your current mastery in the Alchemy Dao, there is a good chance you could break through to an eighth-grade alchemist within five hundred years.”
“Once you break through to the eighth grade, you can become an elder of the Elixir Alliance.”
“I have high hopes for you!”
Elder Qi’s generous praise left Lin Jing somewhat overwhelmed, and he quickly responded modestly,
“You flatter me, elder!”
Elder Qi then waved his hand and spoken directly,
“The future will reveal itself in time…”
“For now…”
“Both of you have passed the assessment.”
“Come with me!”
Having said that, Elder Qi left the stage and headed towards the great hall where the three had initially entered.
Lin Jing and Changyun Yuanlei saw this and quickly followed.
Soon.
The three returned to the great hall, where Elder Qi communicated the results of the assessment to the middle-aged cultivator present earlier, then handed over the elixir medications that Lin Jing and another had produced to him.
The middle-aged cultivator took the elixir medications, opened and inspected them to verify their correctness, and then he pulled out one purple and one blue identity token, each distinct in color.
After that…
The middle-aged cultivator handed the one purple and one blue tokens to Lin Jing and Changyun Yuanlei respectively.
Lin Jing and the other extended their hands to receive the tokens.
At this moment.
The middle-aged cultivator spoke to Lin Jing and Changyun Yuanlei,
“Congratulations to you both on joining the Elixir Alliance!”
