The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron-Chapter 352 - : Boring

Chapter 352: Chapter 352: Boring

“What? They can even go to the Pill Alliance in Xuan Country for further training for a year?”

“Why are the rewards this time for the Pill Refiner Conference so generous?”

“Weren’t there only three spots to enter the Pill Pole Tower in the past? What’s the situation this time?”

Zhuge Cang’s words once again caused a huge uproar, causing everyone to gasp in surprise, feeling extremely astonished.

Zhao Shenkong, Guo Zhen, Fang Lin, and others were also quite surprised, but more than that, they felt a surge of excitement.

With such generous rewards, they were even more motivated.

Meanwhile, Fang Lin was deep in thought. The spots for the Pill Pole Tower were one thing, after all, he wasn’t really sure about what was inside.

But the value of the Great Essence Pill was too significant. For Fang Lin at his current state, one Great Essence Pill would significantly enhance his abilities.

Fang Lin could refine the Great Essence Pill himself, but with his current capabilities, he couldn’t refine such high-level, fifth-grade pills unless he steps into the Heavenly Origin realm, and maybe not even until he reaches the fifth rank of the Heavenly Origin.

From Fang Lin’s perspective, the attractiveness of the Great Essence Pill was the greatest, far more than the Pill Pole Tower.

Fang Lin doesn’t lack Alchemy Tao insights or inheritances; what he lacks are tangible benefits, like pills, like treasures.

As for the reward of having the opportunity to study at the Pill Alliance in Xuan Country for a year, Fang Lin didn’t consider it important, but he still had some thoughts.

Xuan Country is where the Dugu Family resides..

Dugu Nian is also a Pill Refiner. If he goes to the Pill Alliance in Xuan Country, he might meet Dugu Nian.

However, Fang Lin immediately discarded this frightening thought. What kind of encounter would it be between him and that brat? It’s her territory, what if she holds a grudge against him for past beatings and seeks revenge?

Thinking of this, Fang Lin couldn’t help shivering, feeling a bit conflicted.

He wanted the Great Essence Pill, but he didn’t want to go to Xuan Country. How should he handle this?

Luckily, no one knew what Fang Lin was thinking at this moment. Otherwise, they might have ganged up and beat him.

The so-called Pill Refiner Conference, of course, centers around Pill Refining, but it’s quite diverse and includes herb identification, pill formula appreciation, Alchemy Tao discussion, and Alchemy Tao challenges.

Among them, the most eye-catching are the Alchemy Tao discussion and the challenges. They’ve been the most heated content throughout the conferences, and the real competitions are also taking place in these two sections.

Of course, this does not mean that the first two sections are redundant. After all, to assess a Pill Refiner’s strength, one has to evaluate from multiple perspectives. Herbs and pill formulas are both important factors to measure a Pill Refiner’s skill.

Pill Refiners from three countries had prepared for a long time for this Pill Refiner Conference. Except for Zhao Shenkong, Guo Zhen and Su Xiaotong, everyone else seemed a little nervous and apprehensive.

Except for Fang Lin. Besides Zhao Shenkong’s group, he was the most composed one. He was even leisurely looking around, totally indifferent.

Many people shook their heads at Fang Lin’s behavior, thinking that he must have been too shocked yesterday and had given up on himself.

Little did they know, Fang Lin had weathered many storms, and a little setback was nothing. Though Fang Lin did struggle with this issue all last night.

“Fang Lin, I told you before, I hope you won’t drag us down. Now it seems that you can’t do it,” Li Jianlong looked at Fang Lin and said softly with a smile.

Fang Lin’s mouth curled up: “With all your talents, are you really afraid that I can screw things up?”

Li Jainlong’s eyebrows furrowed, and there was a strange look in his eyes.

In Jianlong’s view, Fang Lin seemed too calm; it was almost strange. Could his heart really be that big?

Just then, Su Xiaotong patted Fang Lin on the shoulder: “It’s okay if you’re a little less talented. The most important thing is to have a good memory.”

Everyone was confused. Fang Lin was speechless. What does having a good memory have to do with Su Xiaotong?

The first event was naturally the herb identification segment. It served not only as an appetizer but also set the stage for the later events.

Herb identification was simple. Pill Refiners from Black Cauldron City would bring rare medicinal herbs for the young Pill Refiners from the three countries to identify.

This event tests the basic skills and eyesight of a Pill Refiner. As a Pill Refiner, identifying herbs is the most basic skill.

Many people say that a Pill Refiner’s life is spent between the medicinal fields and the Pill Chamber.

One might even say that a Pill Refiner spends more time observing medicinal herbs than refining pills.

At this moment, the Pill Refiners from the three countries were seated separately. An old man in gray walked to the center, holding a type of medicinal herb in his hand.

“Let me start. Can any of you tell this item’s name and characteristics?” The old man in gray put the item he held out in front of everyone.

At a glance, it looked like a fruit, but it was very shriveled, showing a faint yellow color, with tiny roots growing from both sides.

“Whoever knows can answer,” the old man said with a smile.

As soon as his words fell, a young man from Meng Kingdom stood up, “This thing is known as the Cold Corpse Fruit. It grows in places with extreme Yin and corpse qi. It contains poisonous sap that can affect people with corpse poisoning. It’s not suitable for making medicine.”

As soon as he was done, a lot of people applauded, and the young man from Meng Kingdom sat down quite triumphantly.

Then, a woman from Yun Country stood up,”It’s ridiculous to say that the Cold Corpse Fruit isn’t suitable for making medicine. Don’t you know that the Corpse Nurturing Pill requires this Cold Corpse Fruit as the main ingredient?” ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

The young man from Meng Kingdom was momentarily stunned, then immediately refuted, “You’re talking nonsense.”

The woman from Yun Country sneered, a look of disdain on her beautiful face, “To describe you as a frog in the well. I can’t believe that Meng Kingdom would send someone like you to make a fool out of yourselves.”

As soon as her words came out, the atmosphere suddenly heated up with people from Meng Kingdom all standing up, appearing extremely angry.

The people from Yun Country were also not to be outdone, collectively glaring at the people of Meng Kingdom, quite provocatively.

“Hmph!” At this point, Chen Mu, standing not too far away, snorted coldly. The invisible pressure filled the hall, instantly causing people from Yun Country and Meng Kingdom to restrain themselves, though the two sides were increasingly antagonistic.

“The lady from Yun Country is right. This Cold Corpse Fruit does indeed have potent corpse poison, but it can be used to refine the Corpse Nurturing Pill, so it’s not unfit for making medicine,” the old man in gray said.

This result made the people from Meng Kingdom look sullen, and the young man’s face turned red, appearing extremely embarrassed.

And the people from Yun Country were greatly encouraged.

“Ah, boring,” Fang Lin yawned, showing his boredom.
