Chapter seven hundred and fifty seventh: success and failure
Qingyang was operating in an orderly manner. In the aperture on the other side of the hall, Xia Meng adjusted his mentality and started refining the last material. He had already figured it out. Instead of hesitating, it was better to give it a go.
Success or failure lies in one fell swoop.
Xia Meng was refining the last material, but it was only two quarters of an hour later than Qingyang started. Now he no longer seeks to surpass Qingyang in speed, because if you compete for speed, you will not be able to overtake the opponent, and it will cause chaos.
For your own position, you can only work steadily and do your best. As for the rest, you can only pray that Qingyang fails, and good luck will naturally fall to you.
Putting aside all small thoughts, Xia Meng controlled the furnace at the center of the earth while taking the materials and processing them using various techniques. The proficiency of his movements was no worse than Qingyang's.
An hour passed quickly and everything went smoothly. Xia Meng even had a feeling that his chance of success this time was more than 70%. As long as there was any small mistake on Qingyang's side, victory would belong to him.
, the Dan King inheritance is also my own.
Thinking of this, Xia Meng's operations became smoother and smoother. At this moment, there was a soft buzz in the entire hall, and then a huge force of repulsion came over.
Xia Meng could feel that this repulsive force seemed to be kicking him out of the Alchemy Palace, but the game was not over yet. Why was this happening? No matter whether he passed the level or failed, he had to refine the last material by himself.
Is it over? Did something unexpected happen?
Xia Meng quickly raised his head to look. It didn't matter. He found that Qingyang opposite him had stood up from the ground, and on the platform in front of him, there were three Yuan Ju Dan neatly placed. In other words, the opponent
He has passed the third test and is about to receive the inheritance of the Alchemy King. However, no matter whether he succeeds or fails, he is no longer useful, so he will be kicked out of the Alchemy King Palace.
Xia Meng felt extremely unwilling, because he had a high chance of success this time and was very likely to pass the level, but he was just a little late, which ultimately led to his failure.
He regretted in his heart, why he didn't go faster and refine three pills before the opponent? He also hated in his heart, why Qingyang didn't make a mistake? If Qingyang made a mistake, then he wouldn't be the one to pass the level.
Is he even more angry? Why is God so unfair? He can obviously pass the level, but he has given him such a strong opponent? The biggest thing in his heart is jealousy. He is jealous that Qingyang is about to obtain the Dan King inheritance, and he
But missed it.
No matter how unwilling Xia Meng was, it was already too late now. He didn't even have time to speak before he was directly kicked out of the Danwang Palace. The huge force of repulsion enveloped him. When he regained consciousness, the whole
People were already standing in the stone chamber outside.
Looking at the familiar bronze secret door in front of him, Xia Meng knew that he had failed completely and that the Dan King inheritance had nothing to do with him. No matter how close he was to success or how hopeful he was, he could not change the ending of failure.
.
Boundless depression hit his heart. Xia Meng was disheartened for a moment. He no longer wanted to stay here, so he turned around and walked out of the stone room.
Before Xia Meng could take a few steps, other people in the stone room gathered around and asked: "Senior Xia, how is the situation? Did you fail to clear the level?"
Xia Meng was feeling uncomfortable. Hearing a junior expose his shortcomings in person, he suddenly said with an unkind expression: "What? I was eliminated, and you seem to be very happy?"
Of course the Qi Refining monk didn't mean this. He was just eager to know what was going on in the Alchemy Palace. He didn't think too much when he asked. Seeing that he had offended Xia Meng, he quickly explained: "Senior Xia, don't be angry. I'm just eager to know."
What’s going on inside.”
Before Xia Meng could speak, Lu Yuan, who had always been at odds with him, finally found a chance to speak. He sneered and said, "Xia Meng, you said before that I had a bad mentality. Isn't that the same for you? You failed and turned to an alchemist.
If a monk vents his anger, do you still have the nerve to pretend to be a senior in front of others?"
"What does it have to do with you if I lecture others?" Xia Meng said angrily.
"I just can't stand the arrogance of some people." Lu Yuandao.
Xia Mengdao: "So what if I am arrogant? At least I persisted until the end, unlike some people who were eliminated early and even my defeated generals dared to talk too much in front of me?"
This was what Lu Yuan was most taboo about. As a result, Xia Meng refused to open any pot, which made Lu Yuan so angry that he could hardly speak. He pointed at him and said: "You... you..."
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Nangong Chi quickly smoothed things over and said: "Two fellow Taoists, you are both famous foundation-building alchemists on Lanyu Island, so why are you arguing over a few words? Everyone also cares about the Alchemy King.
Since we know how to compete, let’s talk about the situation inside the Alchemy King Palace first.”
After arguing with Lu Yuan for a while, Xia Meng felt better. He had a cooperative relationship with the Nangong family. For Nangong Chi's sake, he said: "You must all know the questions of the third level. There are thirteen in total."
We had to use several materials to refine Juyuan Dan. Qingyang and I had both refined two pills before. When it came to the last material, I was almost done. I didn’t expect that Qingyang succeeded in refining it before me. As a result, I
He was kicked out of the Alchemy Palace."
As soon as Xia Meng finished speaking, Lu Yuan interjected: "You are so brazen. Who would believe what you say? I must have been kicked out because of my failure in refining, but you say this to put a dent in your face."
Lu Yuan and Xia Meng had similar elixir skills. Lu Yuan only refined two Yuan Ju Dan with thirteen materials. Of course he refused to admit that Xia Meng was stronger than him, but Xia Meng was too lazy to argue with him and just said coldly.
: "That's the truth, believe it or not."
Fearing that Lu Yuan and Xia Meng would fight again, Nangong Chi said quickly: "So, that Qingyang has passed the third level of the competition and became the winner of the Alchemy King Meeting?"
Although Xia Meng didn't want to admit it, he still nodded and said, "Yes."
Although everyone hopes that the situation in the Alchemy Palace will be as Lu Yuan said, Xia Meng was kicked out just because of the failure in refining the elixir. Whether Qingyang can succeed or not is still uncertain, and maybe he will fail in the end, but now Xia Meng
If you admit it personally, it seems there will be no lies.
After confirming this, everyone at the scene immediately had different reactions. The people of the Duanmu family felt disappointed, because the Alchemy King Association that had been passed down for hundreds of years might be interrupted, and the Alchemy King inheritance would also be taken away from now on. At the same time, they also replaced
Qingyang is happy. Strictly speaking, Qingyang can be considered a member of the Duanmu family. This time he participates in the Alchemy King Meeting and represents the Duanmu family. The inheritance of the Alchemy King is obtained by Qingyang, one of his own, which is better than the enemies of the Ximen family and the Murong family.
