Chapter 276: You Are Quite Impressive
She did not think that Feng Yu had the strength to successfully melt the pills.
As time passed, many began to fail and started their second attempts, while some Alchemists, having failed consecutively, had to give up helplessly.
Soon, Ji Yang reached the most critical moment: forming the pill.
A few other Alchemists with decent techniques quickly arrived at this stage as well.
Just as everyone was fully focused, pouring all their attention into their Dan furnaces and preparing to form the pills, Ji Yang skillfully lifted a corner of his Dan furnace.
In the astonished and confused eyes of the onlookers, Ji Yang manipulated the Dan fire with one hand while the other began to skillfully shake his furnace.
This operation left the others speechless, and soon astonished voices followed:
“What kind of alchemy technique is this?”
“Why have I never seen this before?”
“Hmph, with such shaking, the liquid inside must be unstable, and it could explode at any moment. It’s simply for show!”
“Exactly! This friend has a point!”
……
Everyone present shook their heads, not accepting Ji Yang’s alchemy techniques.
Even the elder below paused for a moment.
He had approached the ancient alchemy techniques that Feng Yu had mentioned with skepticism, but he did not voice any rebuttals.
However, what he saw now astonished him.
Could it be the young master had truly grasped an ancient alchemy technique?
Yet such a strange method of alchemy was something he had never heard of before.
Ji Yang paid no attention to the voices of the people outside, focusing solely on shaking his Dan furnace and quickly merging the liquids inside!
Though Ji Yang was too engrossed to notice, the other Alchemists were also drawn in by the astonished reactions of the crowd.
Many Alchemists halted their actions upon seeing Ji Yang’s unique alchemy technique.
But at the crucial moment of alchemy, precision was key; this pause caused several Exploding Furnaces to erupt in the venue.
Watching the exploding Dan furnaces, the faces of those failed Alchemists darkened, and they cast resentful glances at Ji Yang. Several of the failed ones simply stopped and fixed their eyes on him, wanting to see what Ji Yang could produce with his alchemy!
Cui Jing, who was closest to Ji Yang, was also captivated by his unique alchemy method.
Unlike others, upon realizing she had lost her focus, Cui Jing quickly regained her composure and immediately adjusted her actions to stabilize the potency of the pills in her furnace.
However, this moment of distraction still made her quite annoyed, leading her to decide not to watch Ji Yang any longer and to concentrate on her own pills!
She still did not believe Ji Yang could successfully refine the Dropping Dew Pill!
As the alchemy progressed, many gazes were fixed on Ji Yang. Even Elder Guan, who had been quietly gathering information and hadn’t paid much attention to this side, cast a curious glance.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Ji Yang remained calm, still shaking his pot!
The voice from the immobilizing mirror had long since vanished; he had personally guided the previous stages, but upon seeing Ji Yang start shaking his furnace again, he had nothing more to say.
As Ji Yang’s skilled techniques continued, the liquid in the Dan furnace quickly began to condense and take shape!
Finally, under Ji Yang’s intense heat, a unique fragrance wafted from the Dan furnace!
“Is this… a successful pill formation?”
Many cultivators watching Ji Yang refine the pills looked astonished at this sight.
They could hardly believe that Ji Yang’s method could truly succeed in refining such pills.
Beside them, Cui Jing caught the unusual fragrance, and suddenly, black smoke erupted from her Dan furnace.
This was not only due to Ji Yang’s success; her earlier distraction contributed to the result as well.
Looking at the waste inside her Dan furnace, Cui Jing turned her gaze towards Ji Yang. She wanted to see if Ji Yang had really succeeded, knowing that just having a fragrance didn’t guarantee the pills were successfully refined.
As everyone’s eyes converged on him, Ji Yang set down his Dan furnace, opened the lid, and took out the pills.
Before Ji Yang could clearly see the Light Points inside the furnace, he noticed a figure rapidly appear before him. This took Ji Yang by surprise, but he made no other movements.
The figure was none other than Elder Guan, who had been watching Ji Yang.
Upon catching the fragrance of the pills, he realized that Ji Yang had succeeded. He was also very curious about Ji Yang’s unique alchemy technique, so he couldn’t help but step forward to take a look.
After examining the pills in the Dan furnace, Elder Guan broke into a friendly smile and said:
“Very good, three lower-grade Dropping Dew Pills!”
“With this, you can advance!”
Having said that, Elder Guan smiled and nodded at Ji Yang, showing his approval.
He put Ji Yang’s capture aside for the moment; after all, Ji Yang was still within the city and couldn’t escape.
If he could find a talented individual in this competition who was likely to become a master alchemist for the Heaven Demon Sect, it would be quite a significant achievement.
“Elder Guan, you flatter me!”
Ji Yang pretended to be nonchalant as he pulled out the pills, quickly absorbing the Blue Light Points appearing above the three pills while responding.
However, after Ji Yang spoke, Elder Guan expressed surprise by asking:
“You’ve seen me before?”
His surprise carried a hint of scrutiny.
Without hesitation, Ji Yang replied:
“The reputation of Elder Guan resonates throughout the Heaven Demon Sect. Although I have never seen you, I have heard your great name!”
Upon hearing such flattery, even Elder Guan couldn’t help but blush, surprised that he had a bit of a reputation in the outside world!
Yet, the color on his face indicated he found these words very pleasing!
Elder Guan glanced at the identity token hanging from Ji Yang’s waist and then said:
“You are from the Dan Ding Sect?”
“I am Feng Yu from the Dan Ding Sect!”
“Hmm.”
Elder Guan nodded slightly and then slowly spoke:
“You’re quite impressive! If you can place in the top three of this competition, you may come develop within my Heaven Demon Sect! We of the Heaven Demon Sect always treat people generously! We will certainly not mistreat you!”
“I will do my best!”
Ji Yang replied joyfully.
The cultivators from the Dan Ding Sect who had come with him turned dark at this sight, as this person shamelessly dug into their territory, clearly disregarding the Dan Ding Sect.
Faced with such an obvious provocation, they could only remain silent.
Although the Dan Ding Sect was not a small sect, besides alchemy, they truly had nothing else to show for themselves.
Other sects might respect the Dan Ding Sect for their decent alchemy techniques, but this was of little significance to a large sect like the Heaven Demon Sect.
The old man below was not angry about Elder Guan’s attempt to recruit Ji Yang but rather felt somewhat pleased!
To gain the recognition of an elder from the Heaven Demon Sect and develop there was surely better than staying at the Dan Ding Sect.
Cui Jing let out a cold snort, her expression somewhat complex.
Her goal had originally been to defeat the most threatening fellow disciple, “Feng Yu,” in this competition, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, he had caught the eye of Elder Guan from the Heaven Demon Sect.
