When Lin Chen thought he had reached the end of the road, he suddenly saw spiritual energy light spheres scattered all over the ground!
"Damn, this is just too awesome!"
With gleaming eyes, Lin Chen suddenly stopped what he was doing and walked towards Liao Jianhua.
"What is he trying to do?"
"Could it be that after failing alchemy once, he wants to just give up and make trouble?"
The elders were very confused. Just as Elder Qi was about to scold Lin Chen, he was stopped by the Sect Leader of Shenwu Sect.
"This young man has no killing intent, he probably doesn't want to break the rules. Let's wait and see."
Everyone watched as Lin Chen approached Liao Jianhua. Even Liao Jianhua himself was wary, scolding:
"What are you doing coming close to me? Are you trying to break the rules!"
But Lin Chen just grinned and said, "You keep concocting, I'll just take a stroll. I'm not breaking any rules."
After speaking, Lin Chen bent down to pick up a spiritual energy light sphere. A screen popped up from the system.
【Host has obtained 93 points of spiritual power.】
Lin Chen continuously picked up the attribute light spheres around Liao Jianhua. There were six in total, all high quality spiritual power attribute light spheres! In one go, Lin Chen obtained 573 points of spiritual power!
The previous mental fatigue from concocting pills was now completely recovered, and his spiritual power had reached another level!
"Damn, so these spiritual attribute light spheres can drop around alchemists when they are concocting pills."
Lin Chen simply sat on the ground, smiling as he looked at Liao Jianhua.
What is this guy doing?
The elders and disciples watching were completely confused. Could it be that he wants to just give up like this?
But looking at Lin Chen's face, he was smiling like a blossoming Yueji flower! He didn't look like he was giving up at all!
"Is there something wrong with Lin Chen's brain?"
"Why is he staring at Liao Jianhua while he's concocting pills?"
"Could he be trying to secretly learn Liao Jianhua's alchemy techniques?"
"Impossible. The alchemy techniques used by alchemists when concocting pills are all different, and their control of spiritual power is completely different. How can he secretly learn anything?"
Even the two alchemy elders could not see through what Lin Chen was trying to do. Although Liao Jianhua was unhappy that Lin Chen was staying by his side, having him waste time could only increase his own chances of successfully concocting pills!
Elder Qi signalled with his eyes, and two Elders at the peak of the 9th layer of the Qi Condensation Realm stood at the edge of the stage. If Lin Chen made any irregular moves, they would immediately rush up to stop him.
However, Lin Chen simply sat there smiling next to Liao Jianhua. Occasionally he would stand up and bend down to grab at the air. Other than that, he made no other moves against the rules!
This scene reminded Cheng Yan, Yue Ying and the outer sect disciples from that day at the martial arts field of Lin Chen's various antics!
Time passed, and after a day and night, Liao Jianhua failed twice before finally starting to condense the pill embryo on his third attempt!
There was less than a day left before the end of the competition!
Just as some people started losing hope and leaving, as if already seeing the outcome, Lin Chen finally stood up and returned to his own alchemy stand!
"Is this guy finally going to start concocting pills!"
"But he doesn't have time for any mistakes now. One failure, and this competition will definitely end with Liao Jianhua's victory!"
The two alchemy elders squinted their eyes, and even the Sect Leader of Shenwu Sect looked on with interest.
Picking up the first medicinal plant, a hint of confidence appeared on the corners of Lin Chen's mouth.
"Obtained 1369 points of spiritual power attributes. It was worth squatting here for a day and night. Hehe, it's my turn now!"
Pressing his ten fingers together, Lin Chen made a hand seal, and majestic spiritual power wrapped in swirling battle qi enveloped the first medicinal plant!
Next, Lin Chen also grabbed some Xuan Jade Marrow, fused them together. The impurities of the two heavenly materials turned into streams of grey air, simultaneously removed!
Compared to his previous concocting speed, this was at least twice as fast. With his breakthrough in spiritual power, Lin Chen could now easily use the Green Grade mid-tier alchemy hand seals!
"He's actually simultaneously concocting two types of medicinal materials without an alchemy furnace?"
"Those are definitely Green Grade alchemy hand seals he's using!"
The two alchemy elders looked at each other in shock, greed flashing in their heated gazes!
"Damn, has this guy been looking down on me these past few days? He's only starting to concoct now!"
Jealousy and resentment flashed through Liao Jianhua's eyes.
Lin Chen paid no attention to the looks around him at all. His fingers moved swiftly, controlling strands of battle qi like needle points to pierce the Grade 2 medicinal plant 'Kuiling Grass' before him, directly cutting away a portion of the Kuiling Grass and decisively discarding it!
"He's discarding a portion of the original medicinal plant. That can lead to insufficient energy and failure in concocting the pill!"
The Sect Leader of Shenwu Sect noticed this detail from Lin Chen and was confused in his heart.
Bang!
With one hand holding the extracted essential energy liquid from the medicinal plants, Lin Chen slapped the table. Once again, he put another stalk of Kuiling Grass into the concoction!
Just like before, Lin Chen similarly removed a portion of the Kuiling Grass, merging the essence of the two medicinal plants into one!
The pill formula for the competition cannot be faked, but the medicinal plants can be tampered with. In order to give Liao Jianhua absolute advantage, Elder Qi had given Lin Chen medicinal plants that were all defective, with an extremely low success rate of concoction.
Even if he did successfully concoct them, the quality of the pills would absolutely be below Liao Jianhua's!
"He's actually using two portions of medicinal plants to concoct the Void Spirit Pill!"
The two alchemy elders looked at each other, both shocked.
But using two portions of plants to concoct one pill required extremely exquisite control during the pill fusion process. Only those with extraordinary spiritual power could accomplish it!
Everyone could see that Lin Chen had used all the medicinal plants in one go. Even outsiders among the disciples could see what Lin Chen was doing. Many outer sect disciples even stood up in excitement, shouting loudly!
If Lin Chen could surpass Liao Jianhua in alchemy, it would completely represent the counter attack of the outer sect disciples. This inspiring matter made countless outer sect disciples look on with fiery, excited gazes!
Time passed second by second. Sweat beaded on Lin Chen's focused forehead as he controlled all the energy to fuse into one!
Boom~~!
A burst of fresh wind brought the thick smell of medicinal fragrance sweeping the venue. The two had unexpectedly succeeded in forming pills simultaneously!
"If you want to beat me, it's not that easy!"
Arrogance and confidence filled Liao Jianhua's face!
Two light green pills floated up in pill form. Based on just the energy undulations, the two were evenly matched. Even the Sect Leader of Shenwu Sect could not determine a difference!
By fusing two portions of medicinal plants into one, Lin Chen was merely evenly matched with Liao Jianhua. Clearly, the medicinal plants he used were not defective, but top grade ones.
"He actually succeeded in getting this brat to successfully concoct the pills! At the very least, this is not the worst outcome. My disciple Jianhua can at least tie."
Killing intent flashed through Elder Qi's eyes as he looked at Lin Chen.
"It seems to be a tie?"
"Not bad either. They are both apex geniuses of my Shenwu Sect. Losing either would be a great loss. A tie is fine too."
Just when everyone could not determine a victor, Lin Chen held the light green 'Void Spirit Pill' in one hand and laughed loudly, his voice spreading throughout the venue.
"The good show has just begun. Please watch carefully, everyone."
Lin Chen spread open his palm. A flash of green light flickered in his palm!
Majestic, pure energy undulations swept forth like a hurricane, directly suppressing Liao Jianhua!
"What?"
Liao Jianhua and Elder Qi cried out in shock!
The most important difference between Green Grade and Yellow Grade alchemy hand seals was not just concocting speed, but more importantly, the unique value contained within.
Each Green Grade alchemy hand seal had its own unique effects.
And Lin Chen's 'Heaven Spirit Transformation Pill Art' was to extract a wisp of the spirit energy of heaven and earth during concocting and fuse it into his own spiritual power, thus stimulating the spirituality and potential of the medicinal materials, enabling them to unleash over 40% more power than the original materials!
