Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World
Chapter 200 Pill Meet Round 2The arena was bustling once again. The sun had risen, and this time, only ten alchemists were on the stage.
At the very center, however, were the same four people. Liu Feng, Bai Zhiqui, Ding Yan and Gu Hua. But this time, things were different.
Everyone looked at the center, but their topic of discussion was no longer one of the three pill geniuses. Instead, it was Liu Feng.
"Who is that person? Li Tian? I never heard of him before."
"Yesterday, the pill elder said that he was from the sky heavens sect. It looks like they are planning on making a robust alchemy division. With a talent like this, they can have an alchemy master on their side."
"But where does the sky heavens sect have an inheritance to raise a talent like this? I am sure that he will get poached by either the Ding family or Cairin's pill tower. These are the only places that can raise such a genius."
With all these people talking about him, Liu Feng was a little uncomfortable. He sat down with his eyes closed once again to silently pass the time until the round started.
Once the arena was full with the audience arriving, Pill Elder Qingshan entered the arena once more.
"Today, we shall decide who the genius of Tiandu is. This person will be the future of Tiandu's alchemy, and the reward for being that genius is immense indeed. This pill right here is a treasure that I am sure everyone recognizes but no one has had the luxury of consuming. That is because this is a rare and expensive Xiantian Advancement Pill!" Pill Elder Qingshan took out a jade box.
Hearing this, everyone's breath became haggard. Even Liu Feng's calm eyes fluttered open because the reward this time around was too enticing. He was not completely sure if he could break through easily, so this pill could help him out considerably.
"Forget the stupid things that will come later. Anyways, I am under another identity. I need to win this one. I know that I can win. I need this pill. There is no way that another will appear seeing how exorbitant the prices of the herbs required are." Liu Feng decided.
After a point, the medicinal herbs and pills for the higher cultivation stages were no longer valued as spirit coins. Instead, they used spirit stones.
Liu Feng only had around a thousand low level spirit stones, and that was after he stole them from the bandit.
But now, making this single pill would take at least ten pieces of mid level spirit stones, a luxury that he could not afford.
"Now that I have gotten the attention of everyone here..." the pill elder glanced knowingly towards Liu Feng, as if he was talking to him, and then he continued. "The second round will be just like the first round, but it will be a different pill that many of you might have heard of. The Sage Nine Pill. It is also the singular pill that can be used by any cultivator to have the same effect, but can still be made by a Core Formation Stage Alchemist. The pill that does not discriminate."
Gasps ensued all around. If the first round was difficult, then this round was nigh impossible.
"Does Cairin want everyone to fail? To give such a pill that even pill elders struggle with? Forget Pill Elders. Even Pill Kings cannot make this pill!" someone said from the stands.
Swish!
Ten lights separated from Pill Elder Qingshan's hands and landed in each of the alchemist's hands. These were the spatial rings containing the herbs required for making the pill.
"Once again, the pill will be the property of the pill tower. After all, it is not everyday that an alchemist has the chance to make a pill of this caliber." Pill Elder Qingshan said.
With that, the round had started.
Liu Feng took a look at everyone around him. They were all looking at the spatial ring in their hands with distrust and worry. Even the three pill geniuses were not sure if they could make this pill.
But Liu Feng wasn't. He quickly scanned his memories for the right procedure to make the Sage Nine pill.
"Found it," he muttered and looked at the cauldron in front of him.
The fire breathed into life, and it blazed, giving off an extreme amount of heat.
Everyone glanced at him and looked back at their furnace. The method to make the Sage Nine Pill was unanimous. But simple, it was anything but.
This was the only pill that required such incredible amounts of heat. And the reason was the main ingredient of the Sage Nine Pill. The Frozen Heart of Snow Ape King.
The fact that the pill tower had ten frozen hearts of snow ape kings shook Liu Feng. That only spoke to how much power they had. And to think that they would just gamble it all here!
"Why wouldn't Master Mu try and do this himself? And he must have more talented alchemists under him. Why would he gamble on kids making the pill?" Liu Feng wondered as he carefully took out the Frozen heart.
The frost was trying to consume him, but it was useless. Liu Feng was now an adept in the cold, which was kind of ironic considering that he was an alchemist.
He let the frozen heart slide into the furnace and quickly took out his other ingredients.
One by one, they quickly went into the furnace. Liu Feng made sure that all of the herbs were sticking close to the frozen heart.
The heart would freeze the ingredients around it, and would slowly thaw onto the ingredients, while the blazing heat would try and melt all the herbs at once.
It was a very unorthodox method of pill formation, but it was the only way to thaw the frozen heart. The moment that the heat decreased even a little bit, it would freeze up, and everything would be pointless.
But if the heat was too much, the cold that the heart provided wouldn't be enough, and the ingredients would turn into cinders.
