At this moment, Gao Yan had already announced the start of the second round of competition, and the hourglass had started timing.
Seeing this, the young people in the alchemy field did not dare to delay and started working one after another.
Luo Chen was no exception. After adjusting the Zhengdan furnace, he used his true energy to catalyze the flame and began to preheat the furnace.
Just now, Luo Chen had already stored the elixir recipe in his mind, so he didn't need to read it carefully now and started refining the elixir directly.
After preheating the alchemy furnace to the appropriate temperature, Luo Chen immediately picked up a medicinal plant and threw it into the alchemy furnace. Then his soul power controlled the rise of the flame and tempered the medicinal materials.
The extent to which the medicinal materials are tempered is a missing part of the elixir recipe. Luo Chen can only refine the medicinal materials to the best level based on his feeling and experience.
Fortunately, Blood Coagulation Pill is a commonly used healing elixir. The medicinal materials used in this type of healing elixir have the same purpose. As long as the alchemist has refined a large number of them before and is familiar with the medicinal materials, he can well grasp the properties.
Luo Chen tempered the pearl medicinal material until he thought it was the best, then took out the essence of the medicinal material and put it in a jade bottle.
Immediately afterwards, Luo Chen continued to temper the second strain, the third strain...
While refining the medicinal materials, Luo Chen quickly glanced ahead.
I saw Lin Xueyi and Su Mo, both with serious expressions on their faces, refining medicinal materials.
The flames used by the two were still catalyzed by true energy, but Luo Chen believed that as top-level genius alchemists, the two must have some trump cards.
When the two tempered the medicinal materials, their techniques were steady and sophisticated, and the flames were controlled just right. It was obvious at a glance that they were very familiar with the medicinal materials, and they had very deep experience and strength.
Seeing this, Luo Chen was not surprised. Lin Xueyi and Su Mo were both talented disciples of top forces and had received good education since childhood. If they didn't even have this strength, Luo Chen would be surprised.
Looking away from the two of them, Luo Chen was no longer distracted and continued to refine the medicinal materials seriously.
While Luo Chen was tempering each medicinal plant, the sound of "bang bang" explosions began to be heard one after another. It was obvious that someone was melting the elixir first and failed.
When Luo Chen finished tempering the last medicinal material, several of the intermediate alchemists in the first two rows had their alchemy furnaces exploded.
"hehe!"
After collecting the essence of the last medicinal plant, Luo Chen looked at Xi Bai in front of him on the right and smiled with gloating.
At this time, Xi Bai was disheveled and his white alchemy robe was also stained with a lot of black dirt. He was looking annoyed at the tilted alchemy furnace in front of him.
However, after seeing that one-third of the hourglass on the viewing platform had elapsed, Xi Bai hurriedly packed up the alchemy furnace and tempered the medicinal materials again.
Seeing Xi Bai's embarrassment, Luo Chen smiled again, then ignored it. After taking a deep breath, he began to melt the pills.
Motivated by the flame, Luo Chen put the tempered medicinal materials into the alchemy furnace one by one, and then his soul power controlled the medicinal materials to begin to fuse...
While Luo Chen was blending the medicinal materials, Han Chen next to him looked at the burning alchemy furnace in front of him, with joy in his eyes.
In Han Chen's alchemy furnace, as the flames rose, a blood-colored elixir suddenly took shape and began to emit the fragrance of the elixir, which was a precursor to the success of the refining.
However, at this moment, Han Chen glanced around with his peripheral vision, and then a flash of light flashed in his eyes.
Next!
"Bang!"
A violent explosion sounded in vain on the field, and Han Chen's alchemy furnace suddenly exploded, the lid of the cauldron flew away, and a violent wave of air spewed out from the alchemy furnace and dispersed in all directions.
The alchemist must not be disturbed when refining the elixir. Even the slightest interference may lead to the failure of the elixir, not to mention such a violent air wave?
Under the impact of this air wave, there was a 'pop' sound and black smoke rose from the alchemy furnaces of several alchemists around.
Even Su Mo in front was staggered by the wave of air. The hand that was outputting flames directly hit the alchemy furnace, causing the elixir inside to be burned.
And Han Chen's thrown cauldron lid, whether intentionally or unintentionally, hit Luo Chen's alchemy furnace with a clang, knocking down Luo Chen's alchemy furnace and turning the medicinal materials that were being fused inside into ashes.
Looking at the collapsed furnace cauldron in front of him, Luo Chen was stunned.
Not only Luo Chen, but also several other people who had failed in their alchemy refining due to Han Chen's explosion were also stunned.
But in an instant, these people looked at Han Chen angrily.
Among them, a slightly fat young alchemist on Han Chen's left side glared at Han Chen and said:
"Alchemist Han, what's going on with you? Even if the furnace explodes, you should restrain your momentum at the last moment. Why did you make such a big noise? It affects us and others!"
“Everyone is so sorry!”
Han Chen's honest face was full of apologies, and he hurriedly explained:
"Something went wrong at the critical moment of refining. I was thinking about how to remedy it, but I was too late to restrain my momentum, which affected everyone. I am extremely sorry!"
After saying that, Han Chen nodded and bowed, and kept bowing and apologizing to the affected alchemist. Even the junior alchemist behind him, Han Chen kept his posture extremely low.
With such a low profile, coupled with the loyalty and sincerity on Han Chen's face, anyone who looks at it can feel Han Chen's guilt, and will not think that he is intentional.
Seeing this, Su Mo waved his hand first:
"Forget it, forget it! Brother Han is so sincere, and you can tell at a glance that he didn't mean it. Anyway, we have three chances, so let's not blame Brother Han too harshly!"
After saying that, Su Mo smiled at Han Chen, then turned around, cleaned the alchemy furnace again, and continued to refine the medicinal materials.
The other alchemists who were affected felt angry when they saw this, but that was all they could do.
After all, Han Chen didn't do it intentionally and didn't break the rules, so there was nothing they could do about it.
What's more, each of them still has one or two medicinal materials, so there is no need to argue with an honest person like Han Chen.
With unlucky looks on their faces, the several affected alchemists immediately ignored Han Chen and once again took the time to refine the elixir.
Han Chen, after bowing apologetically to several people, looked at Luo Chen who was still looking at him.
Facing Luo Chen's scrutinizing gaze, Han Chen's face was full of guilt. He bent down towards Luo Chen and apologized:
"Junior Brother Luo, I'm really sorry that this has affected you. I hope Junior Brother Luo can forgive me!"
Hearing this, looking at Han Chen's humble and loyal look, Luo Chen slowly showed a warm smile, waved his hand and said:
"Alchemist Han, you're too polite. It's normal to explode the furnace! This kind of thing can happen to anyone!"
After saying that, Luo Chen picked up Han Chen's cauldron lid with a smile and threw it to Han Chen. Then, as if nothing happened, he straightened his alchemy furnace and started working again.
Seeing Luo Chen's look, Han Chen smiled apologetically before turning around.
However, after turning around, the corners of Han Chen's loyal face were slightly raised, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
When Han Chen turned around, Luo Chen also glanced at Han Chen slightly.
Although Han Chen had concealed it very well just now, Luo Chen, who knew who he was, still saw a flaw and guessed that Han Chen's explosion of the furnace just now was intentional!
By injuring the enemy by one thousand and damaging yourself by eight hundred, interfere with others' alchemy and make others lose an opportunity to reduce the probability of promotion!
Luo Chen sneered at Han Chen's method of attacking his competitors!
However, Han Chen's intention to blow up the furnace was extremely hidden and no one could see it. In addition, no one would believe that someone deliberately blew up the furnace, so even if Luo Chen had some guesses, he would not talk about it at this time.
But even if he didn't say anything about returning, Luo Chen became even more wary of Han Chen.
He was too focused just now, and he didn't realize until someone else's tripod lid hit him, but it won't happen again.
And in Luo Chen's mind, he also recorded this matter. He is not the kind of person who remains indifferent after being tricked!
