The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron-Chapter 358 - : Complete the Pill Formula

Chapter 358: Chapter 358: Complete the Pill Formula

“He wrote three pill formulas for the Fire-suppressing Pill? How is that possible?”

“And all of them are perfect pill formulas! Isn’t this a bit too monstrous?”

“Something’s not right, could it be that Fang Lin is particularly familiar with the Fire-suppressing Pill?”

The crowd was full of amazement, and many people showed skepticism. After all, everyone else only managed to write a pill formula that was eighty to ninety percent complete. Fang Lin, on the other hand, perfected three different pill formulas all at once.

Zhao Shenkong suddenly stood up, his face grave as he spoke, “I want to see the pill formulas written by Fang Lin.”

Guo Zhen also stood, expressing the same request.

The middle-aged man nodded. He knew these proud geniuses would not easily admit defeat. If they wanted to see, he would let them accept their defeat wholeheartedly.

Zhao Shenkong and Guo Zhen approached to review Fang Lin’s formulas.

Throughout this process, Fang Lin was indifferent. There was no worry on his face, only a faint smile.

Li Jianlong and Li Feng each had serious expressions. Fang Lin’s performance was simply extraordinary, causing them to feel immense pressure.

Su Xiaotong was slightly surprised as she looked at Fang Lin. Although she did not remember his name well, her intuition told her that this man was very potent in Alchemy Tao.

In no time, Zhao Shenkong and Guo Zhen finished examining his work, and their faces grew even darker.

They could not find any flaws in his pill formulas. Every formula was perfect without a single error or omission.

Despite their reluctance, both Zhao Shenkong and Guo Zhen understood that they have been outshone by Fang Lin once again.

Fortunately, it was only a prelude. As long as they reclaimed their honor in the next rounds, it wouldn’t matter.

Seeing everyone settling down, the middle-aged man spoke, “Now, let’s move to the main topic. I have here half a pill formula. You need to complete the rest on your own. I won’t tell you what pill this formula is meant to create. It all depends on your understanding.”

With that, he had two stewards distribute the half formulas.

All the talented pill refiners of the three countries received a half-completed pill formula. The objective was to see who could perfect it.

This task was far from easy.

Since they didn’t know what kind of pill the formula was for, the pill refiners had to figure it out and extrapolate the rest based on the given half of the formula.

If there was any misjudgment or miscalculation, they would be led astray entirely.

Therefore, the most important thing about completing the formula was first to figure out what kind of pill it was for.

If they got it wrong from the start, they would fail utterly.

Fang Lin took a glance at the formula and deduced what kind of pill it was for. He faced no difficulty at all, given his Pill Sovereign foundation.

On the other hand, the others furrowed their brows.

“Half of a pill formula” was an exaggeration; in reality, only one-third was provided. The rest was supposed to be supplied by each of the pill refiners.

The less information the pill formula provided, the harder it was for the pill refiners to fill in the blanks.

Even a genius like Su Xiaotong mused with her brows knitted, her face was full of deep thought.

The others were certainly no different – many of them scratched their heads, evidently puzzled.

After waiting for a while without seeing anyone start, Fang Lin, finding it quite dull, began to complete his formula.

As soon as he started, many eyes focused on him.

“Fang Lin started so quickly?”

“Could he have figured out what kind of pill it is?”

“There’s no way he did it that fast, right?”

“Possibly, he was quite extraordinary with the previous Fire-suppressing Pill.”

“Maybe he guessed wrong.”

“If he indeed guessed wrong, he’s going to embarrass himself.”

The crowd discussed among themselves – some were full of anticipation for Fang Lin; others looked forward to watching his performance.

The middle-aged man glanced at Fang Lin in surprise, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Although he was amazed that Fang Lin could write three perfect fire-suppressing pill recipes, this round’s difficulty was significantly higher.

Even the most talented individual would need considerable time to speculate and extrapolate. But Fang Lin started writing after only a brief observation – it seemed a bit childish.

However, the middle-aged man still harbored expectation. If Fang Lin could complete the formula in such a short time, what would that mean?

It indicates that Fang Lin has a profound attainment in the creation of pill formulas.

The moment Fang Lin started writing, he didn’t stop, perfectly completing the half formula in one go.

As soon as he finished, he walked up to the middle-aged man and handed in the pill formula without hesitation.

He was the first one to complete!

Fang Lin was the first one to finish, and many people hadn’t even started yet.

“Fang Lin wrote so quickly. Could he be quite experienced in creating pill formulas?” Zhuge Cang asked Elder Su with curiosity.

Elder Su slightly smiled, his expression was unfathomable, “Well, let’s say Fang Lin comprehends Alchemy Tao in a very comprehensive way.”

“Humph!” His words immediately elicited a cold snort from the strict old man and Old Woman Gu. They were very annoyed.

But even if they were unwilling, the strict old man didn’t dare to say anything. Otherwise, if Fang Lin proved him wrong again, he would really have no face left.

Soon after Fang Lin finished, Zhao Shenkong and a few others started to write.

However, compared to Fang Lin’s efficiency, their progress was considerably slower. frёeωebɳovel.com

They had to speculate slowly, pondering on each ingredient before they could start penning them down.

After more than two hours, Zhao Shenkong and Su Xiaotong managed to complete their formulas. They carefully reviewed them before handing them to the middle-aged man.

Guo Zhen was a bit slower. It seemed that his knowledge in creating pill formulas was a bit weaker compared to Zhao Shenkong and Su Xiaotong.

However, there was no helping it. Guo Zhen was a Poison Pill Master, so he was naturally good at creating poison pill formulas.

But when it came to completing formulas for mainstream pills, he couldn’t measure up.

After all, everyone has their strengths, not many people could be as monstrous as Fang Lin.

Another two hours passed, and more people completed their formulas. When the last person handed in their formula, everyone held their breaths, awaiting the results.

The middle-aged man flipped through the formulas very quickly and finished looking at all thirty of them in no time.

But all the while, a strange smile hung on his face. Only when he saw Fang Lin’s formula did his odd smile finally fade.
