Become a supporting role at the beginning of the fight

Inner courtyard, deep in the mountains.

Xiao Yan found an inaccessible hill. There were several high mountains not far away. He successfully blocked the place. He couldn't help but ask Yao Lao: "Teacher, how is it here?"

"Just here."

Yao Lao floated out of the ring, took a look at the surrounding environment, and nodded with satisfaction.

Then he signaled Xiao Yan to take out the medicinal materials for refining the Earth Spirit Pill.

Xiao Yan took out the medicinal materials he had prepared from the Najie, including the Green Wood Immortal Vine that he had traded with Lin Yan last time.

So many rare medicinal materials were neatly placed in front of them, and a strong medicinal fragrance instantly filled the surroundings.

This time Yaolao was not refining the elixir as casually as before. Instead, he took out a pitch black medicine cauldron from Najie.

He lifted up the black medicine cauldron, with strange flame patterns drawn all over the body. At a glance, the flames were even squirming slightly, like living creatures.

"Black Devil!" Xiao Yan saw a trace of envy in his eyes when he saw the medicine cauldron taken out by Yao Lao.

This is the medicine cauldron Yao Lao used during Xiao Yan's previous training. It is also Yao Lao's medicine cauldron. Even on the ranking list of alchemists based on medicine cauldrons, the Tianding Ranking, it is still famous as a cauldron.

In this refining process, Yao Lao actually used black magic, which shows how difficult it is to refine the Earth Spirit Pill.

"I don't know when I will be able to get a medicine cauldron ranked on the Tianding list!"

Seeing Xiao Yan's envious eyes, Yao Lao smiled bitterly, shook his head, and smiled at Xiao Yan: "You little guy."

"The famous medicinal cauldrons on the Tianding list all have their own spirituality, and this black devil has been imprinted with a soul by me. Even if you want to use it, you can't use it until I have a body that can accommodate the soul. , you can erase the soul mark in it, and you will be able to use it then."

"hey-hey."

Xiao Yan laughed innocently, and then looked at the black devil with more and more salivating eyes.

"Okay, now the refining will officially start."

Yao Lao waved Xiao Yan to take a few steps back, put the black devil away, and then waved his hand, and cold white flames instantly poured into the medicine cauldron.

Xiao Yan also understood that since Yao Lao was going to use a famous medicinal cauldron on the Tianding list for this refining, it must be a very rare learning opportunity. He watched Yao Lao refining without saying a word.

Yao Lao took the lead and took out a red medicinal material similar to Ganoderma lucidum.

This is what they encountered during the auction in the Black Corner Domain, Earth Core Fire Seed, a very rare fire-attribute medicinal material.

Yao Lao put the Earth Core Fire Zhizhi into the medicine cauldron, and the bone spirit's cold fire continued to roast the Earth Core Fire Zhizhi.

Under Xiao Yan's gaze, the Earth Core Fire Seed melted very slowly even after being refined by Yao Lao.

Drops of blood-red liquid seeped out from the Earth Core Fire Seed as Yao Lao refined it, and then dripped into the medicine cauldron.

After more than ten minutes of refining, no liquid leaked out of the Earth Core Fire Seed.

Yao Lao stretched out his hand and waved, and the dried Earth Core Fire Seed was instantly taken out of the medicine cauldron by Yao Lao. It was still on the ground beside it and turned into ashes as the breeze blew by.

Seeing Yao Lao's technique, Xiao Yan's eyes lit up and he stared at Yao Lao's movements closely.

"As expected of a master of alchemy, I can't compare to such techniques."

Yao Lao's movements seemed casual, but the medicine cauldron was still refining the liquid seeping out of the Earth Core Fire Seed.

On weekdays, when he and Xiao Fan were refining, they would directly ashes the refined medicinal materials and accumulate them in the medicine cauldron.

Although it will not affect the elixir refining, the quality of the final elixir is definitely not comparable to the elixir refined by Yao Lao's method.

In the medicine cauldron at this moment, drops of red liquid were spinning rapidly, and from time to time they would hit the medicine cauldron, making a crisp metal collision sound.

Xiao Yan watched the energy inside the medicine cauldron gradually transform from droplets into wisps of blood. The energy contained in it was also terrifying.

"After this essence is extracted, it is not as quiet as other medicinal materials. It is so violent. The sixth-grade medicinal material is well-deserved."

Isolated by Yao Lao's tyrannical soul, it took three hours of refining for these droplets to turn into traces of blood-red energy.

Xiao Yan learned another trick as he watched Yao Lao draw out the energy and seal it in a jade bottle. He also applied a film of strange fire to the mouth of the bottle, which could retain the temperature and effect of the medicinal materials.

Xiao Yan checked the time it took Yao Lao to refine the Earth Core Fire Seed. It took about half an hour to condense the blood-colored liquid droplets in the first place. It took a full three hours to refine the blood-colored energy just now. Many hours of time.

In other words, even with Yao Lao's strength, it would take about four hours to refine the Earth Core Fire Seed.

Xiao Yan calculated that if he kept refining, he would only be able to last for three hours before he had to stop. Looking at Yao Lao's calm expression, Xiao Yan was filled with admiration.

With the refining of the Earth Core Fire Sesame successfully, Yao Lao took a short rest and continued refining.

Ice and Fire Dragon Beard Fruit, Green Wood Immortal Vine, Sixth Level Water Magic Core...

By the time Yao Lao had finished refining all the medicinal materials, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

Even if Xiao Yan was just watching from the sidelines, he felt that the whole day was shocking.

Yao Lao's process of handling each medicinal material allowed Xiao Yan to learn something new.

"It's a pity that senior brother is not here. Otherwise, senior brother would probably be able to understand a lot."

Yao Lao, who had closed his eyes to adjust his breathing, just opened his eyes at this moment. When he heard Xiao Yan talking to himself, he said with a smile: "Don't worry, I already discovered the difference between you and your senior brother when you competed last time." The medicine techniques are different, and I will guide you step by step, so you will gain something by watching me make the medicine."

"But I found that your senior brother has developed his own medicine refining skills. Now is the critical time. If he comes to observe my refining, it will affect his future foundation. That's why I didn't let you call you senior brother."

"So that's it."

When Xiao Yan heard Yao Lao's explanation, on the one hand he was happy for his senior brother, but on the other hand he secretly warned himself to work harder.

"Okay, don't think too much. It's time to condense the elixir next. There will be a lot of movement in a while, so you should step back a little."

Xiao Yan nodded when he heard this and stepped back a few meters.

At this moment, beside Yao Lao, there were dozens of large and small jade bottles, all of which were medicinal materials that had been refined all day long.

Yao Lao waved his hand, and all the medicinal liquid poured into the medicine cauldron, and the prototype of an elixir slowly appeared.

At the same time, circles of energy ripples spread from the medicine cauldron, and the area several meters around Yao Lao was trembling with energy.

Xiao Yan, who was not far away, saw the movement at this moment and realized why Yao Lao had to retreat on his own. He pondered for a moment, and the Thunder Bat Skywing appeared behind him. Xiao Yan flew into the air and retreated again.

Yao Lao looked at the light blue elixir that was slowly forming inside the medicine cauldron, and gave a soft drink. The ancient spirit suddenly filled the space inside the medicine cauldron, and then, a strong fragrance of elixir appeared faintly.

Following this, more powerful energy ripples spread out around the medicine cauldron, even breaking the surrounding trees.

Looking at the terrifying destructive power below, Xiao Yan was shocked and his throat rolled involuntarily.

This kind of movement lasted for half an hour, and then followed by the roar of an explosion, a blue beam of light two feet wide burst out from the medicine cauldron and poured into the sky. superior.

"This... no wonder the teacher said that he would refine it in the mountains. I hope he won't attract people from the inner courtyard!"

Xiao Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly as he looked at the blue light pillar towering into the sky, emitting energy fluctuations.
