The Lord of the Laws of Heaven

Chapter 91 Success
He was wearing an alchemist's robe and had the badge of a first-class alchemist on his shoulder, so no one tried to stop him.

Walking into the Alchemist Guild, there are many people doing various tasks.

After entering, he saw two old men looking at Xiao Jun from the depths. They approached quickly and felt the scanning of two very powerful souls. Xiao Jun swallowed the Xiao Xiong Dan, and his cultivation increased. Moreover, because of the tempering of his mind, his meditation practice gradually deepened.

At this time, the invisible demon that Xiao Jun had refined using the Consciousness-Only Theory had become even more subtle and cunning. Because it had become more subtle, Xiao Jun could not only hear the inner voice more clearly, but he could even closely integrate a large number of demon seal characters.

The extremely subtle, invisible Heavenly Demon could carry even more powerful Heavenly Demon Seal Script. In fact, the more subtle it was, the more condensed the Heavenly Demon Seal Script it carried, and the greater the amount of information it contained.

Xiao Jun now even uses the subtle invisible demon to detect more subtle habits and personality traits. Then he uses the demon seal script to program the invisible demon, subtly changing some things in the mind.

These two soul powers came from a fourth-grade alchemist, but the invisible demon at this time had reached a higher level of subtlety and precision. Xiao Jun could even slightly deceive and guide this powerful soul power.

Of course, it was still a bit difficult for the Invisible Heavenly Demon to infect the soul of a fourth-grade alchemist, but it was also much easier to prevent detection.

Xiao Jun looked at the two fourth-grade alchemists in front of him from all angles, while Frank and Otto also looked at him carefully.

Frank looked carefully at Xiao Jun's skin and bones and began to calculate his bone age.

I observed the aura around him and found that it was not dissipated or unstable, so it seemed that his foundation was good.

"A fourth-rank alchemist, standing next to Master Otto, could it be that you are the president of the Alchemy Guild in Black Rock City?"

"That's right!" Frank said with a smile. "I saw you applying for the exam and was really curious, so I came here specially. So, I will be the examiner for this second-level exam!"

"Then please take care of it, President."

"Sorry... I won't take care of you." Frank laughed and said, "On the contrary... I'm going to test you! This time, the pills you'll be testing will be a bit more difficult!"

"higher?"

"This is a little against the rules, but don't worry, if you pass the assessment, in addition to the basic benefits, I'll even give you some rewards. It's compensation for the increased difficulty."

Xiao Jun nodded secretly: "That's a good test... I accept it!"

"You know... your assessment this time is quite difficult... How confident are you?"

Xiao Jun pondered for a moment and gave an answer: "If it were a normal second-grade elixir, my chances of success would be 50%!"

"What about now?" Frank said with a smile.

"Still fifty percent?"

"Why is that? You know, my level of difficulty has been raised! Don't underestimate me." Frank said in a low voice.

"The two 50%s are different." Xiao Jun explained.

"Hmm?" Looking at the puzzled expressions of the two old men in front of him, Xiao Jun explained, "The 50% mentioned above means a 50% chance of a small success and a 50% chance of a big success."

"Now this 50%... becomes a 50% chance of failure and a 50% chance of success."

"Haha..." Frank laughed. He now realized that Xiao Jun was also an interesting person!

"Fifty percent... This success rate is very high, but it's good to have confidence! Okay... do you want to get ready?" Frank asked Xiao Jun.

"It's ready, let's start trying it!"

"Don't feel any psychological pressure. You are making rapid progress. When you are more confident, you can take the test again at any time." Frank comforted him.

"Thank you for your kindness!"

As soon as they walked into the alchemist assessment hall, Frank and Otto sat in their seats. Many alchemists also entered the assessment hall to observe the second-grade alchemy assessment.

This time... was truly unusual. If Xiao Jun truly passed the test, they would directly witness the youngest second-grade alchemist in the entire Jia Ma Empire, and possibly even the youngest in the entire Dou Qi Continent!

If I could witness this scene, witness such a legend... it would be truly an honor. Witnessing... is also an honor. I'd have a chance to brag about it to others in the future.

"Have you ever seen a thirteen-year-old second-grade alchemist?"

"I've seen it. I watched him pass the test!"

"..."

The stone platform and medicine cauldron Xiao Jun saw were still the same as those for the first-grade examination. The materials and pill formula were placed aside, allowing the alchemist to master them. He took the pill formula and took a look. This time, the medicine he was refining was called the Wind and Fire Pill.

The Wind-Fire Pill, wind harnesses the power of fire, fire harnesses the strength of wind. It's created by fusing the magical core of a sufficiently violent wind-type beast with fire-type medicinal herbs. Once ingested and refined by a Grand Master-level practitioner of fire-type techniques, it will increase the power of their fire-type fighting skills by 30% within an hour!

A 30% increase in the Grand Fighter's power is enough to change the outcome of a Grand Fighter-level battle.

Xiao Jun looked at the magic core of the wind-type monster in front of him. This magic core was a second-level monster's magic core. Another main ingredient was the earth flame berry, which grew next to an active volcano crater and was very rare.

The price of the materials alone is already equivalent to that of a lower-grade second-level elixir, which is expensive enough!

Seeing the recipe and ingredients, Xiao Jun couldn't help but focus on how to refine it. He had analyzed this second-level recipe before, but had never refined it. Furthermore, Xiao Jun rarely used second-level beast cores for refining, so handling them might not be as easy as it seems.

"Alright... let's begin!" With that, Otto rang the bell for the test with a powerful force. A light curtain rose nearby to prevent interruptions.

Xiao Jun thought for a while, and the blood-sucking red lotus fire gushed out directly from his palm and began to burn under the medicine cauldron.

After the preheating was completed, he familiarized himself with the medicine cauldron and directly melted the core of the second-order wind magic core to guide out the energy inside.

Frank, Otto, and even the other alchemists present were quite satisfied with Xiao Jun's precise control of the flames. His ability to control the temperature and the timing of the adjustments were both extremely precise and perfect.

The wind-type magic core was quite difficult to control, but fortunately, Xiao Jun handled every step with impeccable control, each time keeping the error within the micron and microsecond level. He was also extremely focused, forgetting everything else.

Then, they began to place the Earth Flame Berries. This was crucial; too strong a wind would extinguish the fire, and too strong a fire would disrupt the wind. Unless the wind and fire were perfectly matched, this required absolute certainty.

Xiao Jun manipulated the data at the astronomical index level to refine the wind and fire elixir. Inspiration burst out in Xiao Jun's mind, and he began to think about the principle of fanning the flames and the wind and fire disaster!
His own technique was originally designed to refine his physical body. Human vitality is like fire, and movement is like wind, but fire needs wind to propel it. To improve his physical body and even his lifespan... he needed to control the wind and fire in the human body.

Of course, it is not just wind and fire, but also all-round things such as gold, water, wood, and earth.

Xiao Jun used the "True Medicine Form Explanation" to begin reflecting on the human body. In fact, at this time Xiao Jun could draw the energy of heaven and earth for cultivation, but it was too shocking, so he chose to give up directly and just felt the changes of wind and fire in the human body.

The sparks of wisdom were constantly flashing, and countless thoughts and inspirations began to emerge from the bottom of the mind. The "Earth Yuan Treasure Technique" also treated the human body as a treasure, nurturing and tempering it. This was also a kind of accumulation for the improvement of the "Earth Yuan Treasure Technique".

The inside and outside blend with each other, and the whole body and mind are immersed in the changes of wind and fire.

The wind and fire forces within the furnace began to firmly, unstoppably, yet perfectly penetrate and blend together. Constantly adding medicinal herbs to mix them was to assist the transformation of wind and fire.

Borrowing the alchemy furnace, borrowing the qi changes of the elixir, carrying the principles of heaven and earth. Although this world does not have this theory, it also has a general idea.

When wisdom reaches a high level, everything is connected. Anything can be used for practice, and anything can carry the truth. Xiao Jun has begun to grasp and understand the emotions, mood and wisdom of the creator of this pill formula when he created the pill formula.

Finally, wind and fire blended with each other... a red light flashed, and the spiritual liquid condensed and gathered into a pure medicinal power, which was melted together.

A round, light red pill appeared, emitting an extremely strong medicinal fragrance. The light flowed and a faint pattern appeared.

"It's done!" Xiao Jun smiled slightly, took out the alchemy furnace directly, took out the light red pill, and held it in his hand.

And at this moment... Xiao Jun looked at the alchemists in front of him, who were looking at him in terrifying silence. Xiao Jun sensed the energy in his body.

A person's life cycle changes with the external environment, with the sun and moon being the most dramatic. Therefore, the daily flow of Qi in each person's body corresponds to a specific time of day, which is known as the biological clock.

As someone who studies medicine, Xiao Jun naturally knows these things. He usually uses observation and induction to calculate time, and his accuracy can be within half a quarter of an hour!

After Xiao Jun realized the clock in his body this time, he immediately reacted.

"It seems... I'm a little overtime? Almost half an hour overtime."

"Not really... it's overtime." Frank said with a smile, "Refining the Wind-Fire Pill is extremely difficult, and only experienced alchemists can master it. I've increased the difficulty, so naturally it will take longer."

"And your handling method is already pretty good, even the alchemy is pretty fast, so you didn't exceed the time limit." Otto also agreed.

"Yes, yes!" Some of the alchemists behind him also reacted, but they suddenly found that they were not as shocked as they had imagined, but only felt a strange numbness. It seemed that they thought it was normal for Xiao Jun to become a second-grade alchemist.

Even the rather complex second-grade Wind and Fire Pill could be refined to perfection, something many alchemists couldn't accomplish! But they still thought it was normal!

"I declare... you've passed the assessment! You've become a second-grade alchemist!" Frank announced loudly. "In addition to the alchemist's badge of the corresponding grade, I'll also give you a nice reward!"

Xiao Jun was also a little looking forward to it, hoping that he would not be disappointed!
