Time passes as fast as a flash of time, and three days of renovation has passed in a blink of an eye. Three days later, the Danhui ushered in the opening of the second competition.
Just like three days ago, every day of the competition, the venue of the Dan Club is always the most lively.
There were crowds of people, and people from all walks of life and cultivators from all walks of life gathered outside the competition venue like thousands of flowing into the sea. Outside the huge arena like lotus, there were crowds of people everywhere.
The people from Yunxuan Sect arrived early, and Long Wenmu and Yelan also arrived at the venue with the crowd. Qian Lingxue and Yun Jia Qian told Wan Wan, Long Wenmu smiled and explained a few words to the people beside him, and then flew to the competition platform with Yelan.
Before them, many people had already taken the stage first, all through the first round. As time went by, more and more people came on stage.
The specified time for the competition is at noon, and when there is still half an hour before noon, Wen Daoran and the Emperor Yang Realms have also arrived one after another.
It was noon that a sunny bell overwhelmed all the noise.
Long Wenmu stood in the crowd with Yelan's hand. There were only six thousand people participating in the second round, and the stage was no longer as crowded as the first round.
The bell rang, and Wen Daoran walked out of the air, lowered his head and looked at everyone below.
"First of all, I am congratulating you all present on the first competition. The second competition will begin now." His voice was loud, allowing everyone on and outside the venue to hear clearly.
Everyone stared at him with a solemn atmosphere.
"You should have received your own clearance order before. Now please wear the clearance order on your body and do not put it in the storage device." Wen Daoran continued.
At the end of the first round, Wen Daoran issued a token engraved with the word "dan" to each person, and only those holding the tokens are eligible to participate in the second round.
All participants, including Long Wenmu and Yelan, took out their tokens, hung them on their waists, or wore them on their chests.
Wen Daoran nodded slightly and signaled to the side that a group of disciples of the Danqing Sect entered the venue, took out the pills refined by the people in the previous round from the shelf, and returned them to them one by one.
Long Wenmu and Yelan also took back the pills they had refined in the previous round, and their names were engraved on the jade bottle. Long Wenmu also asked Yelan to confirm the pills, which was confirmed to be the ones they had refined in the previous round.
"The second scene should be related to these two pills." Long Wenmu whispered.
"Well. I heard that the content of each Dan Conference is different. I don't know what to compare this time." Ye Lan also said in a low voice.
When everyone got it, Wen Daoran cleared his throat and then announced.
"Everyone has already obtained it, so I will start announcing the rules for the second competition."
As he said this, he took out a scroll from his arms and threw it forward gently. The scroll spread in the wind, and changed from a scroll that was only a foot high to a huge painting that was ten feet tall.
The scroll is suspended in front of the arena, spreading out, and extending on both sides a hundred feet wide. The scroll depicts green mountains and green waters, full of vitality like real objects, and I don’t know which famous artist came from.
"This thing is called the Heavenly Evil Qiankun Picture, and another world is sealed in this picture." Wen Daoran said, "And the second competition was held in this picture."
There was an uproar in the audience. The rules of this Dan Conference are different from those in previous sessions, and they are very different. There has never been such a competition in the past.
"A qualified alchemist, in addition to being excellent alchemy skills, recognizes elixirs, recognizes medicines, and collects medicines. All kinds of elixirs related to elixirs need to be integrated. The content of the second round of competition is to collect spiritual medicine from within, and the things you collect will be used for the third round of competition. In other words, what results will be achieved in your third round of competition depends entirely on this collection. If you fail to collect the medicinal materials needed to form elixirs, you will not be able to get the next round."
Many people whispered in the field, and Long Wenmu was also secretly shocked because he had never expected the second round of competition to be like this.
According to the meaning of Wen Daoran, the second round tests everyone's ability to collect medicinal materials. The medicinal materials collected in the second round will be the materials used to make pills in the third round. In other words, the kind of medicinal materials that can be picked in this round will directly affect the final competition.
Long Wenmu was not worried about Yelan's ability to refine alchemy. In the last round, he had proved that Yelan's alchemy was outstanding. However, being able to refine alchemy does not mean that he is good at picking medicinal materials.
Long Wenmu knows that different spiritual medicines grow in different environments. Some medicinal materials are easy to pick, but some medicinal materials are born in danger and often grow in extremely dangerous places. Not to mention that some medicinal materials grow in secret, so they can't even find them without enough experience.
Suddenly I understood a little, no wonder the pill will have two people in this time. One person will dominate the pill, and the other person needs to focus on strength. Alchemists are usually weak in strength. When they encounter danger, they need strong people to assist from the side. Only when the two complement each other can they have more hope of passing this second round.
"I need to remind you that although the second round is collected, it does not mean that there is no danger. If you are in danger of life, you will be teleported out by yourself. If you don't have enough medicinal materials in your hands, you will be eliminated. These are the rules. If you are ready, please enter."
In front of the Tianxiang Qiankun Picture, disciples of the Danqing Sect stood on both sides and organized everyone to enter in turn.
Some people are still watching, while others are the first to enter.
Long Wenmu just hesitated for a moment, then took Ye Lan's hand and looked towards the sky and the universe map.
Many people still hesitate if they don’t know the situation inside. But Long Wenmu knew that the medicinal materials in the Tianxiang Qiankun diagram cannot be endless. Instead of hesitating, you can take the lead by entering earlier. Whoever enters first means that you can pick the medicinal materials before others.
When Long Wenmu and Yelan came to the Tianxiang Qiankun map, many also reacted and rushed to come. However, those entering must enter in order, and those who were one step slower could only be ranked behind.
Long Wenmu saw that there were many people in front of him, including Hua Yongzhou and Mo Liusu. Every person who entered, the disciples of the Danqing Sect would explain some things to them and give them a storage bag.
The people in front entered one after another. When it was Long Wenmu and Ye Late, the disciples of the Danqing Sect in front came as always to explain the relevant matters.
"Please take out the Qingxuan Dan that was refined in the first round." The disciple said to the two.
Long Wenmu and Yelan looked at each other and poured out two pills.
"Each person holds one and puts it on the pass order." The disciple said again.
Long Wenmu and Yelan did as they did, and each of them took a pill and placed it on the clearance order.
When the pills come into contact with the clearance order, it slowly melted like ice melting into the water. The clearance order emitted a layer of fluorescence, which gradually enveloped Long Wenmu and Yelan.
"With this layer of protection, it can ensure the safety of both of you. If you encounter an invincible danger, you can also take the initiative to admit defeat, and the two will be teleported out at that time." The disciple said this, took out two storage bags and handed them to them, "The medicinal materials collected from the Tianxiang Qiankun map are put in this bag for the final verification."
Long Wenmu and Yelan both nodded and took it.
The disciple took a step forward and made a request. Long Wenmu pulled Ye Lan and stepped into the Tianxiang Qiankun map with great strides.
The moment he stepped into the Tianxiang Qiankun map, Long Wenmu felt a dizzy turn, and the scene in front of him broke like a mirror and then pieced it together again. When he came to his senses, the two of them were already standing on a lonely peak.
"This is the Heavenly Contest and Universe Map?" Ye Lan looked around curiously.
The lonely peak they are located is thousands of feet high, with blue sky above their heads, and only a few cotton-like white clouds floating on the hillside.
There are many mountains and dense jungles in the distance, and you can't see the edge at first sight.
Long Wenmu took a deep breath, and there was a faint fruity smell in the air.
Long Wenmu has seen a demon weapon that can accommodate people, including his Heaven and Earth Boat, which can accommodate living people. However, this is the first time he has seen a demon weapon with such a wide internal range as the Heavenly Xiang Qiankun Picture.
The vastness that cannot be seen at first glance is like the word "Qiankun", which is completely another world.
I won’t talk about the dense jungle layer by layer, and you can even hear the roar of beasts coming from afar, with even monsters here.
This is a completely independent world. According to Long Wenmu's guess, a treasure like the Tianxiang Qiankun Picture may be a top-quality treasure, and the worst is also an imperial one.
"Young Master, it seems that I didn't see anyone else." Ye Lan said in a low voice.
It was almost teleported in with the others, but I didn’t see anyone else nearby, so I guess I was teleported to a different place.
Facing the wind, Long Wenmu felt the surroundings and heard a faint rustling sound in his ears. He looked down and found that the light curtain covered by his body seemed to be corroded by something. He didn't pay attention at first, but when he looked carefully, he found that there was an unusually faint purple color in the air.
Ye Lan obviously noticed something strange, and turned his head to ask Long Wenmu for his meaning.
"It should be miasma." Long Wenmu said. He just smelled the sweet fruity fragrance, and combined with what he saw, he roughly had speculation.
"Is it possible that the entire Tianxiang Qiankun map is like this?"
Long Wenmu nodded. There was a miasma in the air around him, and the barrier emitted by the pass-through order isolated the miasma.
Long Wenmu had a sudden idea and took the pass order slightly off his body for a moment. He held Li's hand with demonic power. The next moment, the fluorescence disappeared, and he suddenly felt a sharp pain like a needle prick.
Even with his perseverance, he couldn't help but suck his breath and hurriedly put the pass command on his body. Then another fluorescent light wrapped him up, and the severe pain stopped.
"Young Master is okay?" Ye Lan asked with concern.
Long Wenmu rolled up his sleeves and saw a red skin on his skin. He thought it was so powerful. If he had no protection and was exposed to this poisonous fog, he would probably not be able to survive even half a stick of incense.
"I'm afraid there is a time limit." Long Wenmu murmured.
"Is it related to Qingxuan Pill?" Ye Lan also vaguely understood something when he heard Long Wenmu say this.
No one mentioned the time limit for this competition before coming in, but it was not without time limit. The clearance order absorbed the Qingxuan Pill, and the layer of protection emitted by the layer of protection has the effect of isolating miasma. But this effect is not endless. With corrosion, this layer of protection will sooner or later fail. By then, that is, when it is teleported out.
If you want to collect enough medicinal materials, you must not before the protection fails. As for how long this layer of protection can last, Long Wenmu has no idea. Maybe one day, maybe two days, no one can tell what this is.
"Without any time, see what you have to use, and then we will set off." Long Wenmu always felt that the restrictions would not be that simple.
Sure enough, after a while, the two of them checked and found that the medicinal materials they carried on could not be taken out of the Qiankun ring.
Demon soldiers and other demon weapons can be used normally, but the medicinal materials they carry with them cannot be taken out. This is probably because the Tianxiang Qiankun map has been restricted. In other words, if you want to pass this test, you can only collect medicinal materials yourself, and you cannot use the medicinal materials you carry with you to pass the level.
