Legend of Reborn Alchemist

0At this moment, the alchemist's face turned red. He pointed his finger at Lin Cheng and asked furiously.    

    

"Ha!"    

    

Yan Wuqing sneered.    

    

Initially, he was shocked when he saw that Lin Cheng was directly selected by the cultivator. However, before he could react, he heard the cultivator announce that Lin Cheng was the first one to complete the pill refinement. His shock instantly turned into astonishment.    

    

This was clearly showing that he was openly siding with Lin Cheng!    

    

His first reaction was, could it be that Lin Cheng had some kind of relationship with the Unification Sect, to the point that even a cultivator was siding with him openly?    

    

But very quickly, he laughed. Because of the openly siding actions of the white-robed cultivator, it had offended the public. Although no one dared to make a move against the cultivator, Lin Cheng, the person who was siding with them, had clearly become the focus of everyone's attention.    

    

However, when Lin Cheng heard these criticisms, his expression didn't change. He bypassed the pill furnace and strode towards the tall platform.    

    

"Shameless!"    

    

Lin Cheng's unscrupulous actions had infuriated all the alchemists present. Especially the first alchemist who had completed the forging, his face turned red with anger. He roared and raised his hand, preparing to smash the pill furnace in front of him with his palm.    

    

"Stop!"    

    

The white-robed cultivator shouted. This voice wasn't loud, but it was clearly transmitted into everyone's ears. It made their entire bodies tremble, and their hearts immediately shivered!    

    

Powerful!    

    

Everyone was shocked in their hearts. Just this move alone displayed the huge gap between the cultivator and the Cultivating Warrior. The surging noise in the square suddenly became silent.    

    

No one dared to speak anymore. Even the first person who finished refining... No one dared to say anything. After all, if the cultivator was provoked... It was not a question of whether he could pass or not, but whether he could still keep his life!    

    

The mystic realm made people crazy, but the dead could not go crazy!    

    

However, there was still a trace of anger and dissatisfaction in the depths of many people's eyes. There was also disappointment on their faces as they helplessly shook their heads.    

    

If the cultivator wanted to openly side with this person, how could they resist?    

    

Under the angry and hateful gazes of everyone, Lin Cheng followed the steps and climbed up the platform step by step. He came to the side of the cultivator and said with cupped fists, "Lin Cheng greets everyone!"    

    

"Wu! Wait a moment!"    

    

The white-robed cultivator's gaze landed on his body, revealing a trace of admiration. However, he quickly averted his gaze, and then suddenly leapt up.    

    

"Hu!"    

    

The white-robed cultivator suddenly leaped down from the high platform. Its body was like a nimble bird as it flew in front of one of the people. This person was the first person to complete the refinement.    

    

"You are the first person to complete the refinement, but I took the second person to pass, so you are not convinced in your heart, right?" The white-robed cultivator asked.    

    

"Junior... Junior does not dare!" The alchemist pursed his lips, cupped his fists, and lowered his head.    

    

"Hmph!"    

    

The white-robed cultivator shook his head and sneered, "You don't even have the courage to express your true thoughts. Even if you pass the examination, what can you do?"    

    

Ceng!    

    

The alchemist's face turned red. He gritted his teeth and said loudly, "Yes! This junior is unconvinced! If senior were to privately appoint someone to pass the examination, this junior would have nothing to say. However, since everyone has participated in the examination..."    

    

" You've seen the pill formula? " The white-robed cultivator suddenly interrupted him and asked.    

    

... "Of course I have." The alchemist was stunned for a moment before he nodded his head and said.    

    

The white-robed cultivator asked, "Are you refining these pills according to the pill formula?"    

    

The alchemist nodded his head and said, "That's right! Junior refined according to the pill formula, not the slightest bit inferior!"    

    

"Very good!"    

    

The white-robed cultivator nodded slightly and said, "Since that's the case, then consume the pill that you personally refined now!"    

    

"Ah! Senior, what, what did you say?" Upon hearing this, the apothecary exclaimed in shock.    

    

"What? You personally refined a pill, but you don't dare to consume it?" The white-robed cultivator stared at him with a faint smile and asked in a faint voice.    

    

"Senior, this, this pill is poisonous!"    

    

Under the mocking gaze of the white-robed cultivator, the alchemist's face instantly flushed red. He explained, "Senior, there is a problem with this pill formula..."    

    

"There is a problem with the pill formula?" The white-robed cultivator raised his eyebrows, revealing a surprised expression as he asked.    

    

"That's right! Senior, there are two types of medicinal herbs in this pill formula that conflict with each other in terms of medicinal properties..." The apothecary hurriedly tried to explain, but he was interrupted before he could finish his words.    

    

"This is absurd!"    

    

The white-robed cultivator's expression suddenly sank, and he said in a deep voice, "Since there is a problem with the pill formula, why do you still follow the instructions and refine it? Such a stiff person who does not know how to adapt to the situation, how can he become an outstanding alchemist?"    

    

"This..."    

    

The apothecary was stunned. He opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to defend himself.    

    

The white-robed cultivator said in a deep voice, "There is a problem with the formula that I gave you today. The purpose is to test your ability to adapt. If it is only to let you refine some poison pill, why should I give you so many medicinal herbs?"    

    

" Despite knowing that there was a problem with the pill formula, you still continue to refine it. Just for passing the test and disregarding everything else, who do you plan to give the pill that you refine to? For you all to eat? "    

    

"You don't know how to be flexible, and you don't know how to appreciate emotions. Even if this kind of alchemist passes the examination, how great will his future achievements be?"    

    

"Today, however, those who refine according to the pill formula, please leave!"    

    

After the white-robed cultivator spoke, he waved his hand and no longer looked at the alchemist. He floated up and landed on the tall platform.    

    

The square was silent.    

0

    

Most of the people's faces were pale, and their eyes were filled with shock.    

    

Anyone who could pass the first examination could be considered an outstanding alchemist below the Core Sea Stage. Naturally, they could tell that there was something wrong with this pill formula.    

    

However, the cultivator was the one who gave the pill formula that had a problem. Naturally, they wouldn't dare to change it. However, they had never expected that this would also be a test.    

    

And now, they had failed the test!    

    

"Senior, since it is a test of adaptability, why didn't you explain in advance..." Someone shouted, but before he could finish, he felt a terrifying pressure enveloping him. He was unable to say a single word!    

    

"This, this... How is this possible?!"    

    

Yan Wuqing was also stunned. He opened his mouth but did not know what to say. He never thought that there would be such a change.    

    

Thinking about it, the reason Lin Cheng was named first must be because he didn't refine according to the pill formula. Again! Seeing the calm expression on the high platform, Lin Cheng who was standing with his head held high, Yan Wuqing suddenly had a feeling of reverence, even though it was only for a moment. It made him feel extremely shocked.    

    

"No! No matter what, I can't let Lin Cheng live. After this examination, I must let my younger brother kill this man!"    

    

At the same time, Zhou Chuan stared at Lin Cheng who was standing on the high platform, his eyes shining.    

    

He muttered, "I knew it! I knew it! Lin Cheng's strength was definitely extraordinary. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been in a situation where he had nothing to do with it. I have to convince him to join me no matter what. Sister will definitely need such a talent!"    

    

Everyone had mixed feelings. Under the gaze of the cultivator, they could only leave the square in a sorry state. No one dared to cause any trouble, and no one dared to raise any objections.    

    

Among them was Yan Wuqing.    

    

He also refined according to the pill formula, but he wasn't too depressed because he knew that regardless of whether he could pass the test or not, he would ultimately enter the mystic realm!    

    

After a short moment, there were only a few dozen people left on the square. Because this time, the cultivator was refining the most basic pill, so with a glance, it could determine the quality, medicinal effect, and so on and so forth.    

    

Very quickly, the ten people were selected.    

    

The first place was naturally Lin Cheng. Besides the two middle-aged men, the rest were all extremely young alchemists.    

    

Looking at these candidates, Lin Cheng thought to himself. It seemed like Unification Sect hadn't completely given up on these cannon fodder. Otherwise, it would be better for them to choose an experienced middle-aged alchemist than these inexperienced young men.    

    

Lin Cheng guessed that the reason why they were chosen was probably because they thought that if they could really return from the secret realm alive, they would have a lot of potential after joining the Unification Sect.    

    

However, to Lin Cheng's slight surprise, Zhou Chuan was one of the ten people chosen. Although he didn't see the pill that Zhou Chuan refined, since he was able to pass the test, it meant that it was not bad.    

    

This made him understand that since Zhou Chuan dared to ask him to join forces with him, it seemed like he had something to rely on.    

    

Lin Cheng suddenly felt that it might not be a bad thing to join forces with Zhou Chuan. At least, this man had a certain level of strength, so he shouldn't be a burden to him. At the same time, Zhou Chuan was more familiar with the situation in the secret realm than him. This was Zhou Chuan's advantage.    

    

Sensing Lin Cheng's gaze, Zhou Chuan smiled and nodded. Lin Cheng also responded with a smile.    

    

"Congratulations, brother Lin. You have surpassed everyone in terms of skill and won the championship!"    

    

Zhou Chuan's face was full of smiles as he cupped his fists and praised, "I knew that Brother Lin would definitely pass the test, but I never thought that... I never thought that you would be so outstanding. Especially that simple palm of his, which was able to divide the pills into different parts. This is simply a skill that can shock four people. It can even be said to be at the acme of perfection!"    

    

On the plaza, not only was Yan Wuqing secretly watching Lin Cheng, Zhou Chuan was also paying attention to Lin Cheng.    

    

At that time, Zhou Chuan had noticed that Lin Cheng's refining process really did not have many outstanding points. Not only did he not have complicated finger techniques, he did not even have the most basic technique. It was simply no different from ordinary people brewing the medicinal concoction!    

    

However, Zhou Chuan understood that the simpler this technique was, the more it could reflect the extraordinary skill of an alchemist.    

    

To be able to refine such a fine and complicated pill refinement process with an extremely simple technique, this was a true expert.    

    

Only by possessing an extremely high level of skill in pill forging and knowing every kind of medicinal herb like the back of his hand could he reach such a level of simplifying complex into simple!    

    

Lightly lifting heavy as if it were light!
