Chapter 1119 Unrepentant

The appearance of the Colorful Phoenix Pill was like a bolt of thunder out of the blue. Even the few alchemy masters who had been lacking interest in the crowd perked up at this moment.

This kind of ancient elixir is a rare treasure even in the areas controlled by several Central Plains holy sects.

Not only is the refining process complicated, requiring extremely high skills from the alchemist, but the requirements for spiritual materials are also extremely stringent.

The discussions in the crowd suddenly became chaotic, and everyone's faces were filled with shock and confusion.

"Colorful Phoenix Pill? Did I hear it right? Isn't that the legendary pill? It is said to be able to enhance the spiritual roots of cultivators. Is this true?"

A young monk stuttered to the person next to him.

"Keep your voice down!"

The old man next to him hurriedly stopped him, but he could not hide the excitement in his eyes.

"Colorful Phoenix Pill, this is a real magical pill. I never thought that I would see it used as a subject for a competition in my lifetime."

"Now it's time to watch a good show. Between Huo Yan and Xu Qingyi, who can refine this kind of magic pill?"

Some people are rubbing their hands and are very excited.

"I think it's difficult. The difficulty of refining the Colorful Phoenix Pill is not only the refining method, but more importantly the preparation of the spiritual materials for refining."

"The reason why this Colorful Phoenix Pill is an ancient elixir is because several of the spiritual plants used to refine the Colorful Phoenix Pill have become extinct in the world, or grow in extremely dangerous places and are difficult to collect."

"It is said that one of the main ingredients, 'Phoenix Feather Grass', can only be found at the edge of the magma of a thousand-year-old volcano, when the phoenix sheds its feathers once every hundred years. You can imagine how precious it is."

"There is also the 'Spiritual Spring Jade Dew', which is hidden deep under the Nine Heavens Spiritual Spring. It only appears once every thousand years. It is pure and spotless and can harmonize the medicinal properties of all things. It is a must-have for refining high-level elixirs."

"It is already extremely difficult to gather all these spiritual materials, not to mention mastering the ancient and complicated refining techniques."

In the crowd, a senior alchemist shook his head, his tone somewhat solemn.

"But since it's a competition, we have to prepare alchemy materials for both contestants. The Yanyang Sect can't tamper with the materials, right?"

Next to this senior alchemist, a boy who was still childish raised a question.

"you are wrong."

The senior alchemist looked at Lady Dan and the others from Yan Yang Sect on the stage, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.

"The efficacy of this Colorful Phoenix Pill is incredible, and the quality of the pill is not too high. The great masters of Medicine King Valley have already researched a simplified version."

"Although the spiritual materials required for the simplified version are still precious, they are relatively easy to obtain, and the difficulty of refining is also greatly reduced. However, the quality of the pill will be sacrificed accordingly."

"If my guess is correct, what Huo Yan and Xu Qingyi will refine later may not be a kind of Colorful Phoenix Pill."

"this......"

The young alchemist who raised the question was speechless.

"Is it possible that the Yanyang Sect has spent so much effort just to save face for its own disciples and dampen the spirit of the Qingdan Pavilion?"

The senior alchemist narrowed his eyes.

"I'm afraid we should ask Li Xunfeng and Lady Dan on the stage about their real purpose..."

Zhou Yiqiao listened to the conversation of the people in the audience and his thoughts coincided with theirs.

If it were at the beginning, Zhou Yiqiao’s mind was just to find some fun besides practicing.

Now, he became interested in the real intention of Yanyang Sect in mobilizing such a large force.

"This fun is really getting bigger and bigger."

On the management desk, Zhou Yiqiao smiled and looked deeply at the people on the stage with different expressions. His eyes flickered, and no one knew what he was thinking.

At this time, Madam Dan had already handed the extracted jade slip to Li Xunfeng.

Li Xunfeng held up the jade slip and used magic to enlarge it so that everyone could clearly see the words on it.

"Everyone, the content of the final round of competition has been determined, which is to refine the Colorful Phoenix Pill."

There was a hint of excitement in Li Xunfeng's voice that was hard to conceal.

"Let us look forward to the wonderful performances of the two alchemists and see who will win the final victory in this alchemy feast."

As Li Xunfeng announced the start of the final round of competition, the entire arena fell into silence.

All eyes were focused on the two alchemists, waiting for the final showdown of alchemy skills.

Xu Qingyi walked forward slowly. In front of her were the alchemy materials that Yan Yang Sect had "carefully" prepared.

She gently lifted the silk cloth covering the spiritual plant, revealing the rare spiritual material lying quietly inside.

Through Xu Qingyi's perspective, Zhou Yiqiao clearly saw the true appearance of these spiritual plants.

Just as he expected, the spiritual material that Yan Yang Sect prepared for Xu Qingyi was indeed a simplified version of the Colorful Phoenix Pill.

Zhou Yiqiao did not act in a hurry. Instead, he controlled Xu Qingyi to look in the direction of Huo Yan.

I saw Huo Yan also looking in the direction of Xu Qingyi.

The two men's eyes collided in mid-air, and Zhou Yiqiao could see the undisguised provocation and confidence in Huo Yan's eyes, as if victory was already in the bag for Huo Yan.

"I thought that changing the content of the second competition would be enough to let you understand the attitude of Qingdan Pavilion, but I didn't expect you to be so stubborn."

Zhou Yiqiao put all the low-quality spiritual herbs in front of him into his storage bag, muttering to himself.

"If other people were to participate in the competition, they would not be able to find a second set of spiritual herbs for refining the Ancient Colorful Phoenix Pill in a short time..."

"It's a pity that the person you met was me, Zhou Yiqiao!"

The next moment, in the astonished gaze of everyone, Zhou Yiqiao on the high platform suddenly stood up, waved his sleeves, and threw out an exquisite jade box.

There was a faint glow flowing on the jade box, and it was obvious that there was something extraordinary hidden inside.

The jade box landed steadily next to the alchemy furnace beside Xu Qingyi, making a crisp sound, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

As everyone was shocked, the door of the jade box slowly opened, and dozens of extremely rare spiritual plants floated out of it, emitting a faint glow, and each of them contained tremendous vitality and pure spiritual power.

"This...this is!"

Someone exclaimed, his voice full of disbelief.

"Another spiritual material for the Colorful Phoenix Pill!"

The other alchemist's eyes widened and he almost stood up from his seat.

Zhou Yiqiao curled up his lips into a faint smile, and his voice echoed throughout the venue.

"Since Yan Yang Sect attaches so much importance to this competition, it would be inappropriate for Qing Dan Pavilion to be another organizer of this event, nor would it be appropriate for us to take advantage of Yan Yang Sect for no reason."

"I see that Yanyang Sect doesn't seem to be able to produce the spiritual materials for two sets of Colorful Phoenix Pills, so my Qingdan Pavilion will fill this gap. It can also be regarded as my Qingdan Pavilion's contribution to this grand event."

Zhou Yiqiao's poor excuse almost revealed the true identities of Yan Yang Sect, Dan Niangzi and others.
