Chapter 1824 Alchemy Competition (Part 2)
A man in armor walked out of the night and looked at the red cloud, with a strange look in his eyes.
"How did you discover this general?" The man's words were filled with disdain. Although he was confused, he acted condescendingly in front of Hong Yun, as if being able to talk to Hong Yun was Hong Yun's great blessing.
"The method of concentrating Qi is so crude that it would be difficult for Pindao not to discover it. Tell me why you came here. If you can't convince Pindao, don't leave today." Hong Yun said with a smile.
Hongyun first came to Hongmeng Realm. Although he didn't want to cause trouble, he was definitely not the kind of person who would be bullied and stay indifferent. The person in front of him had a cultivation level of the ninth-level eighth supreme supreme level, and he had a hint of murderous intent. If Hong Yun guessed correctly, this person should want to kill him.
"What a pity for such a talented person. Your alchemy skills may be very high, but your cultivation is the most important thing. My young master is going to participate in the competition, and you will have no choice but to die."
As soon as the word "death" came out, a spear appeared in the man's hand and attacked Hongyun directly. In the night, the spear seemed like a little starlight, and it came to the center of Hongyun's eyebrows in an instant. As long as Hongyun didn't dodge, he would definitely kill him. Hongyun shot and killed.
"Ants are ants. They were so frightened that they had no strength to resist under this general's attack. They are worse than the two people in front of them." The armored general thought to himself.
But the next moment, Hong Yun took action, stretched out a finger, and gently hit the spear that was coming, and collided with the tip of the spear.
boom.
With a loud noise, the entire small courtyard was instantly reduced to ruins. The aftermath, which could be seen with the naked eye, spread to all directions. Houses collapsed wherever it passed. After all, there was no formation protection in this alchemy mansion.
Such a big movement naturally alarmed all the alchemists. When they saw that Hongyun's courtyard had become ruins, and in front of Hongyun, a man in armor was half-kneeling on the ground. There was a hole between his eyebrows. It was Hongyun's finger that did it.
"Fellow Taoist, are you okay?" Qingfeng quickly walked to Hongyun's side and asked.
"It doesn't matter, it's just an ant." Hongyun smiled nonchalantly.
At this time, the guards guarding the alchemy mansion hurried over. Seeing the scene, they first asked Hongyun. After all, the assassin had died. Hongyun told the whole story.
"It's not good, it's not good, Master Jia Dan and Master Cao were killed." A guard said loudly as he trotted all the way, with a little fear in his eyes.
"What! Master Cao and Master Jia were killed?" The guard captain's eyes were also a little frightened, because he knew deeply what Master Jia and Master Cao represented, regardless of their level of cultivation. .
But their alchemy skills are obvious to all. In this alchemy competition, the two of them may win the first place. Even if they don't get the first place, they will definitely be in the top three. This will be the help of the city lord in the future.
They are just ordinary guards, how can they compare with the alchemist's life, so they are afraid of the city lord's investigation.
A strange look flashed in Hongyun's eyes. It seemed that the assassination was really premeditated. The person behind it wanted to get the first place in this competition. It seemed that the Shanggong family of Nanling had a lot of temptation.
"Hurry and report this matter to the city lord." The guard captain shouted, and then faced the alchemists, his face changed, and he said respectfully: "Alchemy masters, please go back and have a good rest, Alchemist Hongyun, I'm here Take you to the new courtyard."
Ten days later, the alchemy competition was held. Because of the incident at the alchemy mansion, the Lord of Shanggong City was a little annoyed, but there was no way. The assassin in armor was obviously a trained killer, and no clues could be found behind it.
Now, both Alchemist Jia and Alchemist Cao are dead, and the only one who can attract Hongyun's attention is Qingfeng. However, when it comes to alchemy, Hongyun has never been afraid of anyone. Back in the prehistoric times, even I was not. Hongyun's opponent.
But what makes Hongyun confused is, why is it an alchemy competition and not a formation competition? Are alchemists more popular in Hongmeng Realm?
The ten-day deadline has come, and today is the day of the alchemy competition. The square in Nanjun is already crowded with people. After all, such a grand event as the alchemy competition rarely happens in Nanjun every ten thousand years.
"I heard that there were assassins in the Alchemy Mansion a few days ago. Alchemist Cao and Alchemist Jia, who had the greatest potential to win the first place, were both dead."
"So this happened. No wonder the alchemy competition this time went on so fast. It didn't take more than ten years from the notification to the start. I remember that previous alchemy competitions all took a hundred years to prepare for."
"After a hundred years of preparation, I'm afraid all the alchemists will be assassinated."
On the square, everyone was talking about the assassination of the Alchemy Mansion. After all, how could such a major event be kept secret? The entire Nan County already knew about it on the second day, and even several surrounding counties also knew about Nan County. Things that happened.
"Quiet."
An old man walked up to the high platform and gave a soft drink. The whole square fell silent instantly. This man was the city lord of Nanjun and a member of the Shanggong family, but he was assigned to Nanjun.
The old man nodded with satisfaction. He has been in Nanjun for eight million years and has accumulated prestige for a long time. However, this year is also the year when his term expires. Originally, he would have extended it for a hundred years with the alchemy competition, but now once he refines the alchemy, When the competition is over, he will follow the first place winner to Shanggong's house in Nanling.
"Alchemy masters, please take your place." The Lord of Shanggong City said in a loud voice.
Immediately afterwards, Hong Yun and other sixteen alchemists walked to the high platform and sat down in front of the sixteen alchemy furnaces. Although the alchemists were not very high in cultivation, they had a very special status in Hongmeng Realm.
Because all alchemists have the potential to refine Wu Dan, Wu Dan has no grades, because Wu Dan, once taken, will have miraculous effects, and at least it can allow you to understand a kind of Hongmeng rule.
Of course, Enlightenment Pill is only effective for monks below the Supreme Being, but it does not work for those above the Supreme Being.
Just think about it, if a monk understands the 499 Hongmeng rules and takes the Enlightenment Pill, wouldn't he be able to become the most powerful and supreme one?
Of course, the Enlightenment Pill is difficult to refine, and even alchemists have difficulty controlling the success rate of refining the Enlightenment Pill. It can be said that being able to refine the Enlightenment Pill is definitely a combination of luck and skill, with luck accounting for 90% of it.
"This alchemy competition will be the same as usual. It will last for three hours. Depending on the quality, grade, and efficacy of the elixir, all alchemists are invited to start refining the elixir." The city lord announced the purpose of the alchemy competition. content.
