Chapter 125
Immortal Dao Conference, the scene of the third-rank alchemist competition.

A Yuanying Patriarch in Kunlun looked at Li Yu and said in disbelief, "You want to participate in the third-rank alchemist competition, can you refine third-rank pills?"

Li Yu shrugged and said, "I haven't practiced it, but I have read the alchemy formula and the notes of a third-rank alchemist."

For alchemy, practice is more important than theory. Besides, Li Yu's cultivation is only foundation building, far from meeting the requirements for refining third-order elixirs.

He looked at Li Yu and asked, "But your mana..."

Li Yu stretched out his hand, and a purple flame appeared in the palm of his hand. He looked at the Yuanying Patriarch and said, "Senior Zhao from Emei, lent me this spirit fire. There should be no problem with the pill fire."

"But you have just refined three furnaces of second-order pills, your body..."

"Please, let me try."

The Yuanying Patriarch looked into Li Yu's eyes and saw that his gaze was extremely firm, and finally said: "Okay, but do what you can, don't be brave."

There are ten places in Kunlun for each third-rank alchemist competition. Now five people have withdrawn temporarily, and there are still five places left. Anyone below the fourth-rank alchemist can play.

The Kunlun disciple looked at the figure resolutely walking towards the competition venue, and he only had admiration in his heart.

He was only a second-rank alchemist, but when facing these third-rank alchemists, he stood up resolutely.

And he just went through an extremely exhausting contest.

Compared with those third-rank alchemists who betrayed the sect, that slightly thin figure seemed extremely tall at the moment.

At this time, the immortal cultivators watching from the stands also spotted the figure and expressed their doubts.

"Isn't that Li Yu?"

"Third-rank alchemist competition, what is he doing here?"

"It's useless for him to go up, can he refine a third-order elixir?"

Even immortal cultivators who are not familiar with alchemy know that it is impossible to refine a third-order elixir without the cultivation of the golden alchemy stage. Although Li Yu's alchemy talent is high, it is impossible to break this rule.

The fire of mana in the foundation building period is not refined enough to condense, and it cannot integrate the materials of the third-order elixir.

However, when Li Yu finished selecting the ingredients, purified the spirit liquid, and started alchemy, the people who had been following him were surprised: "Hey, why is his mana fire purple?"

The mana fire of righteous disciples should be crimson, and almost everyone saw purple flames for the first time.

Among the crowd, an alchemist explained: "That's not mana fire. If I remember correctly, it should be Ziwei real fire, an extremely rare fire spirit. At present, in the world of cultivating immortals, there is only one four-year-old from the Emei sect. It is owned by a high-grade alchemist. It is recorded in ancient books that immortal cultivators in ancient times could use this kind of fire spirit to make up for the shortcomings of mana and refine elixirs at higher levels. The elixir, the grade will not be high..."

After some alchemists' explanations, everyone finally understood that Li Yu was challenging these third-rank alchemists.

Regardless of whether he can succeed or not, this courage has moved many people.

The Yuanying Patriarch and Elder Jindan of the various sects looked at the figure on the water curtain who was serious about alchemy, and were extremely envious in their hearts.

Why doesn't their sect have such disciples?
Even the elder of the late Nascent Soul of Tiandaozong, his expression became more serious, and he murmured: "It would be great if he was my disciple of Tiandaozong..."

Kunlun Cave.

The sound-proof formations on the peaks have been removed, and all Kunlun disciples can get the news of the Immortal Dao Conference immediately.

They have already learned from Wu Tong that five third-rank alchemists in Kunlun betrayed their sect and joined Tiandaozong before the competition, and they also knew that Li Yu, who had just finished the second-rank alchemist competition, took part again without rest. Third Grade Alchemist Competition...

At such a critical moment, he never flinched.

In Yuxu Palace, many Nascent Soul Patriarchs are also always paying attention to the situation thousands of miles away.

In the main hall, a snail was suspended in the void, and Wu Tong's voice came from it: "It's started, Li Yu has already started refining..."

……

At the scene of the third-rank alchemist competition, Li Yu completely entrusted his body to the pill furnace in his body, and felt that it was easier than refining second-rank pills.

He didn't need him to provide mana, and he didn't need to be distracted from alchemy, so he naturally felt extremely relaxed.

In this competition, three kinds of elixirs need to be refined, namely the third-order Huiqi Pill, Jiji Pill, and Tuomai Pill. Although Li Yu has never refined it, he is already familiar with the refining process. If you choose wrong, the order of the ectoplasmic liquid is correct, and there will be no problems.

This crape myrtle real fire was warmed and nourished for hundreds of years by the strong man in the late Yuanying period. It is more than enough to refine the third-order elixir. As long as there are materials, Li Yu even has the confidence to refine the fourth-tier elixir.

It is very difficult to refine a third-rank pill. Even a third-rank alchemist cannot guarantee the success of every batch. The refining time of a batch of pills is often more than five hours.

Only three hours later, several third-rank alchemists failed to refine and were helpless to be eliminated.

Among them, there are even two third-rank alchemists of Tiandaozong.

The five alchemists from Kunlun, and the five alchemists who originally belonged to Kunlun and later joined Tiandaozong, were obviously stronger than others, and there was no mistake in refining the first batch of elixir.

To people's surprise, Li Yu's refining process went smoothly.

Doesn't this mean that although he is only a second-rank alchemist, he is stronger than those failed third-rank alchemists?

There are so many alchemists in the world of cultivating alchemy who have enough mana but cannot keep up with alchemy talent. In him, the alchemy is extremely accomplished, but the mana is a bit behind.

Another hour passed, and alchemists opened furnaces one after another.

It is easy to produce top-grade pills for non-advanced grades and first-grade pills, but it is very difficult to refine top-grade pills when it comes to second-grade pills. Has surpassed most alchemists.

In this competition, among more than thirty third-grade alchemists, less than ten of them produced top-grade pills, and the rest were all middle-grade alchemists, and there were even low-grade and inferior pills. As for super-grade and top-grade pills, there was none .

Contrary to everyone's expectations, although Li Yu was the last one to finish refining, he actually refined a high-grade Huiqi Pill, which was not inferior to these third-grade alchemists.

Of course, he is only a second-rank alchemist, even with the help of spiritual fire, forcing him to forcibly leapfrog alchemy would take a toll on him.

After refining this batch of elixir, his face was abnormally pale, he couldn't even walk steadily, and his body had obviously reached its limit.

Among them, half of them were pretended by Li Yu. After all, if refining elixir by leapfrogging is as easy as refining second-tier elixir, it would be really unreasonable.

The other half is true, for the five hours of refining, he himself had to provide mana, and he had used a lot of the Huiqi Pill, which really took a toll on his mind.

Seeing that he was so exhausted, the elders of Kunlun immediately took him back to the stand to rest. Several Yuanying Patriarchs took turns to transfer mana into his body, and all kinds of medicines for cultivating vitality and nourishing qi were also prepared for him. .

It took a long time to refine the third-order elixir, and it took a lot of effort. It took a full twelve hours to refine a furnace of elixir, plus the rest time.

After Li Yu fell asleep for several hours, the second competition had already begun.

The second refinement was the Foundation Establishment Pill. The difficulty of the Foundation Establishment Pill was higher than that of the Huiqi Pill. A Yuanying Patriarch looked at Li Yu's pale face and couldn't help but said: "Or, just come Let's stop here, don't force yourself..."

Leaping over the ranks of alchemy is extremely exhausting and overdrawn by force, which may cause irreversible damage.

Kunlun can lose the first place in the competition, but he must not lose Li Yu.

Li Yu smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, I can still hold on."

After speaking, he stood up and slowly flew towards the competition field below.

I don't know when it started, but few people paid attention to the third-rank alchemists on the field. It seemed that even the result of this competition was no longer that important. Everyone's eyes followed the movement of that figure.

After returning to the field, Li Yu continued to refine slowly.

Anyway, he is not in a hurry, let's see what kind of elixir other people can refine.

The difficulty of the Foundation Establishment Pill is even more difficult than that of the Huiqi Pill. Even a third-rank alchemist cannot guarantee the success of the furnace. After five hours, several alchemists were eliminated, leaving only 24 alchemists on the field. Li Yu was among them.

This round of pills, the top-grade rate is even lower.

Surprisingly, only four people refined high-grade pills, and the rest were all middle-grade and low-grade pills.

These four people are all from Kunlun, but only Wang Hua represents Kunlun. The rest of them, who were alchemists in Kunlun a day ago, are now members of Tiandaozong.

Li Yu's cultivation base is the lowest, and it's normal that the refining time is longer than others. He was the last one to open the furnace, and the elixir he refined is still top-grade.

With his cultivation base in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he was the first to beat most third-rank alchemists since the Immortal Dao Conference.

The price was that after the furnace was turned on, he collapsed on the ground with no blood on his face, and was brought back to the stand by the Kunlun Yuanying Patriarch, who took turns to help him recover with magic power.

Compared with the calmness of the second-rank alchemist in the competition, it is obviously his limit to refine the third-rank elixir.

At this moment, there is only a few hours of rest before the third competition, and the refining of Tuomai Pill in the third competition is more difficult than the previous two. Even if his alchemy attainments allow him to refine Tuomai Pill, But can his body hold on?
This question has popped up in countless people's minds.

When Li Yu woke up, he learned from the Kunlun disciples that those third-rank alchemists had started refining an hour ago.

They all have the cultivation base of the golden core stage, and their souls are also extremely powerful. After refining a furnace of elixir, they can quickly restore their minds, and they will not be overdrawn like Li Yu.

Li Yu propped himself up and stood up, and several voices came from his ears.

"Brother Li, forget it!"

"Yeah, it's just a competition..."

"Tiandaozong wants this broken number one, just give it to them."

……

All the Kunlun disciples couldn't bear it. He had already brought too much honor to Kunlun in this Immortal Dao Conference. He shouldn't, and there's no need to bear what he shouldn't have to bear.

Jiang Li and Zhou Zixuan also had distressed faces, while Zhao Xiner was full of regret. She really shouldn't have come up with a blind idea just now. If something happened to Senior Brother Li, she would die of guilt.

Facing everyone's dissuasion, Li Yu patted the hands of Zhou Zixuan and Jiang Li, and walked out without hesitation.

This kind of thing, how can there be any reason to give up halfway.

He dared to take the fifth-order elixir if Tiandaozong dared to give it.

The last match of the third-rank alchemist competition is undoubtedly the one that attracts the most attention. In the previous Immortal Dao Conference, whoever won the first place in this competition will be the veritable No. 1 third-rank alchemist.

In the previous competitions, the first place was Zhao Guangxuan from Kunlun.

But a few days ago, Zhao Guangxuan fell unexpectedly, and the result of this competition was a little more uncertain.

Wu Boyong, Wang Hua, Sima Yan, Gao Yuan, etc. of Tiandaozong are all outstanding third-rank alchemists. Originally, this competition was completely a personal show of Kunlun alchemists, but it is a pity that the best third-rank alchemists in Kunlun All the alchemists were recruited by Tiandaozong, and Wang Hua couldn't support him alone...

Although there are still many people who place their hopes on Li Yu, after all, he only has the cultivation base of the foundation stage, and he has refined three furnaces of second-tier pills, two furnaces of third-tier pills, and the last furnace of Tuomai pill. At that time, the whole person had obviously reached the limit. Although the body was still tall and straight, it was trembling slightly, and the sweat on the forehead was clearly visible.

Even so, his eyes remained firm.

At this moment, even the disciples of Tiandaozong respected him in awe.

A real man should be like this!

Time passed slowly.

an hour.

two hours.

three hours...

It wasn't until six hours later that alchemists opened their furnaces one after another. Among them, alchemists other than Kunlun and Tiandaozong refined many inferior alchemy with only one pill pattern. Even a few alchemists from Kunlun only came out of the furnace. I took a middle-grade pill with two pill lines.

The middle-grade Tuo Mai Dan, even in Kunlun, has already met the requirements.

High-grade Tuomai pills are usually produced by those fourth-grade alchemists.

Wang Hua put away the pill fire and turned on the pill furnace, his face was a little ugly.

Although he seldom refines waste pills, the rate of high-grade pills is not very high, about [-]% chance, but that is when he is in excellent condition. Today, these five people backstabbed at a critical moment, and he was very angry. Ping, the alchemy has also been affected to some extent, and only one middle grade was refined.

Soon, Wu Boyong and Sima Yan also opened the alchemy furnace.

The two high-grade pills have undoubtedly announced the result of this competition.

Huiqi Pill, Jiji Pill, and Tuomai Pill, without exception, are all top-grade, not even a middle-grade one, although they are not super-grade, but it can be seen that they have perfected their refining of these pills.

Li Yu is still refining, but it is very difficult for him to change the result.

Even if he also refines high-grade pills, the refining time will be longer than these gold elixir experts. According to the rules, when the two pill patterns and the quality of the elixirs are the same, the one with the shortest time will be the winner.

After the last third-rank alchemist finished refining, Li Yu was the only one left in the field.

At this moment, he has obviously reached his limit.

His body trembled violently, and sweat gathered under his feet to form a pool of water, but the flames under his hands remained stable.

After an unknown amount of time, he slowly suppressed the flames.

However, he didn't open the pill furnace, but fell straight down.

Everyone was not surprised by this. With his cultivation in the foundation period, he had refined six furnaces of pills in a row, and three of them were refined by leaps and bounds. His body and mind should have reached their limits, but he was just holding on.

When the breath was released, he fell into a coma due to overdrawn mind.

This is a kind of self-protection of the body of the cultivator.

Kunlun's Yuanying Patriarch immediately took Li Yu back without even turning on his alchemy furnace.

Regardless of whether he has refined the elixir or not, he is a hero of Kunlun.

But this is a formal competition after all, and a referee came over and opened the alchemy furnace that Li Yu hadn't opened.

However, when he looked at the pill furnace, his body shook violently.

On top of the pill, although there are only two pill patterns.

It is two!

Two middle-grade extension pulse pills, four pill patterns!

In this competition, he concocted three batches of four elixirs, with a total of ten elixirs, surpassing all the third-rank alchemists present!

When the view of the water curtain was given to Li Yu's alchemy furnace, there was a moment of silence around it, and then it exploded completely.

"Two pills!"

"He refined two more!"

"Two mid-grade elixirs, four elixirs!"

"He didn't pursue the quality of the elixir, he just wanted to win by quantity from the beginning!"

Everyone couldn't believe it, even Kunlun's Nascent Soul and Jindan experts had never expected that Li Yu, as a second-rank alchemist, would beat all third-rank alchemists and create another miracle.

And those third-rank alchemists who left Kunlun and joined Tiandaozong also stood there blankly, unable to recover for a long time.

They actually lost, to a second-rank alchemist, a junior in the foundation establishment period.

Several people were no strangers to Li Yu, and they also recognized his talent in alchemy. The younger generation was invincible, but they never thought that they would lose to him in the third-tier alchemist competition.

Kunlun Cave.

Deafening shouts came from above the peaks, and countless Kunlun disciples couldn't be more excited.

Ren Tiandaozong has countless methods, but one person in Kunlun is enough.

Facts have proved once again that that man, no matter what, is trustworthy.

Jade Palace.

Wang Daoxuan pondered for a moment, looked at the joyful Nascent Soul Patriarchs, and had already made a decision in his mind.

Heavenly Dao Secret Realm.

The several god-turning powerhouses fell into a long silence.

For this alchemy exchange, Tiandaozong made extremely careful arrangements.

The digital god powerhouse does not hesitate to end in person.

At a huge price, he instigated the best third-rank alchemists in Kunlun in advance.

In the case of scarce high-level alchemy materials, the existence of the three fifth-rank alchemists in Kunlun is not very meaningful. If this exchange of alchemy can completely suppress Kunlun, the alchemy of Tiandaozong will be able to Instead, by recruiting more alchemists and absorbing more powerful people, they can deal with the coming catastrophe more calmly.

But no one expected that such a well-thought-out plan would be ruined in the hands of a little foundation-building monk.

A strong man who turned into a god said: "It is impossible for a person to have no desires. If he doesn't want strength, he can give him power. If he doesn't want power, he can give him women. There are tens of thousands of female disciples of Tiandaozong, let him choose, my seat Do you not believe that he is so loyal to Kunlun?"

The head teacher of Tiandaozong waved his hand and said: "I have investigated him through Kunlun's dark son. With this person's personality, it is unlikely that he will be used by our sect. Don't bother. If you take the initiative to come to the door and be rejected, Tiandao Where should Zong's face be placed?"

The God Transformation expert heard the words and stopped speaking.

What the head teacher said is also reasonable. For Tiandaozong, the face of the sect is far more important than one or two talents.

Even though he has extraordinary talents in alchemy and formation, the most indispensable thing in Tiandaozong is talents. Their goal has been achieved in this Immortal Dao Conference, although they met a little bit in Kunlun. A small setback, but it doesn't affect the big picture.

However, after careful consideration, the God Transformation expert said again: "It is indeed not easy to take the initiative to recruit him, but what if he takes the initiative to join?"

Tiandaozong taught: "How to make him take the initiative?"

The God Transformation powerhouse said leisurely: "We can give him the Golden Pill of Five Spirit Veins, and Kunlun can also give it to him. It's really not too much temptation. I heard that the only shortcoming of this person is lust, and no one in Kunlun has accepted it so far. He is a disciple, if we ask a certain God Transformation from my sect to accept him as a disciple, help him break through every bottleneck, and then help him find a few talented and beautiful Taoist companions, will he still refuse?"

"What if he still disagrees?"

"Hehe, this time you don't need to take the initiative to find him and let the low-level disciples spread the news. Even if he disagrees, the sect will not lose anything. On the contrary, it can show that we are eager to seek talents. Kunlun has nothing to say about this kind of disciple. My seat Let's see how many people they can keep in Kunlun..."
