Battle Through the Heavens: Inward Cultivation, Crying Xiao Yan

Unless a fifth-grade alchemist has a special status, they can take the exam in a regular testing room outside.

In front of Xiao Yang stood four ancient-style gates.

Above each gate is an ancient-style character: “天地玄黄” (Heaven, Earth, Black, Yellow).

Liu Qin led Xiao Yang directly to the front of the Heavenly-level room.

"Young friend Xiao Yang, please come in."

"Now I will conduct the assessment for you."

With that, Liu Qin led Xiao Yang into the Heavenly-level room.

The VIP room was very large.

There are several medicine cauldrons inside.

Xiao Yang could tell at a glance that these medicine cauldrons were no ordinary objects.

These medicine cauldrons are all eight-mouthed!

It should be noted that in the Douqi Continent, the more fire outlets a medicine cauldron has, the better.

Except for some special medicine cauldrons.

Besides the medicine cauldron, there are several other formations around it.

Xiao Yang glanced at it and saw that the presence of these formations could calm the mind and even have a slight effect of gathering energy.

There were also several special symbols on the floor of the room.

Just then, Liu Qin spoke up.

"Young friend Xiao Yang, let me first tell you about the content of the seventh-grade advanced alchemist examination."

"First, we need to check if your soul power meets the standard."

As he spoke, Liu Qin worked on a wall, and the wall immediately cracked.

There is a stone tablet inside.

There is a round mirror in the center of the stone tablet.

"This is a tool used to test the strength of one's soul."

"All you need to do is place your hand on the stone tablet and infuse it with your soul power."

"The round mirror will display a value based on the strength of your soul power."

"A score over 500 is passing."

As he spoke, Liu Qin came to the stone tablet and first demonstrated.

Xiao Yang was able to sense Liu Qin's soul power flowing down his arm and into the stone tablet.

The next moment, a number appeared on the round mirror in the center of the stone tablet—759.

"Like this."

Liu Qin pointed to the round mirror and said.

"I am a mid-level seventh-grade alchemist, and my soul power value is 759."

"So five hundred shouldn't be a problem for you."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang nodded without saying a word and stepped forward to place his hand on the stone tablet.

Immediately afterwards, terrifying spiritual power flowed down his arm and into the stone tablet.

Liu Qin looked at the stone tablet with some curiosity.

He was very curious about just how strong Xiao Yang's soul power was.

He had previously sensed that Xiao Yang's soul might have broken through to the Spirit Realm!

That's why he took the initiative to show up, and his attitude was quite respectful.

As Xiao Yang channeled his soul power, a number lit up on the round mirror—9678!

"hiss--"

Upon seeing this number, Liu Qin was immediately shocked and gasped.

He knew that Xiao Yang's soul had reached the Spirit Realm, and its value was very likely to exceed two thousand or even three thousand.

But I never expected it to reach over nine thousand!

He knew exactly what that meant.

This means that the boy in front of us, who appears to be only about twenty years old, has already reached the Heavenly Realm Soul level!

You should know that only those whose spiritual realm reaches the Heavenly Realm can refine ninth-grade pills!

Xiao Yang looks to be only about twenty years old.

Liu Qin couldn't guarantee whether this was her real age.

After all, once you reach the Dou Zong level, it becomes very difficult to continue aging.

This is especially true when one achieves a breakthrough at a young age.

However, since he addressed the other person as "young friend," the other person did not object.

This means that the other person is really probably only around twenty years old!

They won't be older than thirty!

An eighth-grade alchemist who is under thirty years old.

This means that Xiao Yang has a very high probability of becoming a ninth-grade alchemist!

As for whether Xiao Yang was an eighth-grade alchemist, Liu Qin had no doubt about it.

At this moment, his attitude became even more respectful.

"Your soul power is relatively high, so the second test, soul control, does not need to be tested."

"Let's proceed directly to the third item."

"The third task is to refine a high-grade seventh-rank pill."

"I can provide you with three prescriptions; you can choose one yourself."

As he spoke, Liu Qin took out three scrolls.

Xiao Yang was also somewhat amazed.

As expected of the Dan Tower, they are indeed very wealthy and powerful.

Seventh-grade high-level pill formulas can also be provided at will.

You can also make a selection!

Chapter 363 The Seventh-Rank Advanced Examination!

"After you choose the prescription, I will give you the corresponding materials."

There are three servings in total, and there is no time limit.

"You can pass the test by refining just one pill."

Liu Qin pointed to the three scrolls in his hand and said.

In fact, the most important part of the alchemist exam is this last exam.

The first two tests are actually used to filter out those alchemists who are not skilled enough.

If you know you have the ability to pass the advanced seventh-rank examination, then the first two examinations will be very easy to pass.

The reason for these two checks is mainly to avoid wasting medicinal materials.

After all, the medicinal materials for a high-grade seventh-rank elixir are also very valuable.

Xiao Yang didn't even look at the names of the pills, and just randomly chose a scroll.

He opened it and saw that it was the formula for the Nine-Element Turtle Breath Pill.

The Nine-Element Turtle Breath Pill is a very special kind of pill.

After taking it, one will enter a state of suspended animation.

The medicine in the body will gradually repair the injuries without anyone noticing.

Basically, as long as the heart and head are okay, the patient can survive temporarily.

Moreover, the period of apparent death can last for a month!

You can wake up at any time during this period.

Unless the enemy's cultivation level is too far above one's own, and their soul power is strong enough to reach the advanced level of the Spirit Realm.

Otherwise, it will almost never be discovered.

It should be noted that, apart from alchemists, for a soul to reach a level beyond the Spirit Realm, it may be necessary to break through to the level of a Half-Saint or even a Fighting Saint.

Therefore, it is still very difficult for people to detect that someone is in a state of apparent death after taking the Nine Yuan Turtle Breathing Pill.

This pill is quite difficult to obtain even among high-grade seventh-rank pills.

But Xiao Yang didn't care.

He had even refined more difficult Life-Devouring Pills.

A single Nine-Yuan Turtle Breath Pill is nothing to him.

"This one will do."

Xiao Yang only glanced at the name and effects of the Nine Yuan Turtle Breath Pill before returning the formula to Liu Qin.

In any case, Xiao Yang had already memorized all the formulas for first to eighth grade pills.

Seeing that Xiao Yanglian didn't even bother to check the specific formula for the pill, he directly chose the Nine Yuan Turtle Breath Pill.

Liu Qin was not surprised.

Because the Nine Yuan Turtle Breath Pill is a relatively common high-grade seventh-rank pill.

It's normal for Xiao Yang to know the formula for the Nine Yuan Turtle Breath Pill.

Without hesitation, Liu Qin took out three portions of the ingredients for the Nine Yuan Turtle Breath Pill.

Then, he pointed to the medicine cauldrons in the Heavenly-level room and the engravings on the ground.

"You can use the medicine cauldron here."

"This room can also be used to generate fire to help you refine medicine."

"Of course, you can also choose to use your own flames and medicine cauldron."

Xiao Yang certainly wouldn't use the medicine cauldron and flames here.

How could the medicine cauldron and flames here possibly compare to his Heavenly Profound Cauldron and Primordial Fire?

"I'll just use my own medicine cauldron and flames."

As he spoke, he took out the Heavenly Profound Cauldron.

Liu Qin was not surprised by this, but he was curious about what Xiao Yang's medicine cauldron and flames looked like.

Upon seeing the Heavenly Profound Cauldron, he became even more curious.

Because the Heavenly Profound Cauldron is different from ordinary medicine cauldrons.

The Heavenly Profound Cauldron can even be used for refining artifacts.

However, Liu Qin could tell that the Tianxuan Cauldron was quite extraordinary.

Xiao Yang didn't hesitate and directly threw all the medicinal herbs into the Heavenly Profound Cauldron, poured in the primordial fire, and began to refine the herbs.

Liu Qin was startled by Xiao Yang's unrestrained method of alchemy.

He had tried this before, but he usually only did it when refining low-level pills.

He wouldn't dare do that when refining high-grade pills.

After all, the ingredients for high-grade elixirs are extremely precious!
