1960: C1960 First Round

C1960 First Round

On that day, the Pill Alchemy Plaza, which could accommodate tens of thousands of people, was already packed with people. Other than the open space within a hundred feet of Hundred Herb Hall and the Pill Tower which was around thirty feet, the entire plaza was filled with people.

The empty land within a hundred feet radius of the Hundred Herb Hall in the alchemist square was left for Wang Xiao and Jia Tao to refine the 'Life Death Pill'. After this, over a hundred steps were like the Pill Grading Assembly, where one would observe the ceremony. However, this time around, there were several hundred seats, which were used to receive the magnates from the Golden Lion Nation, who were here to watch the 'Life Death Pill Refining'.

Within three days, Wang Xiao's name once again spread throughout the Northern Chill Region. Gathering together the reputation of Mister Great Desert, it was even more shocking.

This time, the "Life and Death Pill Refining" shocked countless magnates from the Golden Lion Country. The royal family of the Golden Lion Country, the Supreme Court, the Junde Palace, the Green Cloud Chamber of Commerce, the Northern Chill Region Headquarters, the Alchemist Association... Almost all of the magnates and big shots from the top forces in the Imperial City. Countless experts had also arrived.

"The Zhong Family of the Northern Region, Zhong Zhilong."

"The Wu clan of the Northern Region, Wu Yunyun."

"The Black Stream Region's Black Stream Sect, Yang Bai Ling."

"Black Stream Region's Devil Suppressing Sect, Xiao Tianhu..."

The young cultivators who had rushed over from the surrounding regions of the Northern Frost Region and the Black Stream Region... Each and every one of them were extremely influential existences in their respective large regions. They were not inferior to the First Rated Geniuses of the Northern Frost Region in the slightest. They were even stronger than the First Rated Geniuses of the Northern Chill Region. They were only between the First Rated Geniuses and the First Rated Geniuses of the Northern Chill Region.

When they heard that Jia Tao had appeared in the Northern Chill Region, they all rushed over as well. It wasn't because of anything else, but because they wanted to see Jia Tao's bearing and curry favor with him at the same time. An alchemy genius like Jia Tao also had the backing of the Mystic Capital Academy and Alchemy Clans. Once he befriended Jia Tao, it would be extremely beneficial to him, as well as to the forces he belonged to.

"Looks like Jia Tao's popularity is very high. These young geniuses from the 'Black-Corner Region' and the 'Black-Stream Region' have all come to support Jia Tao."

The 'Pill Battle' had yet to begin when the young geniuses from the 'Black-Corner Region' and the 'Black-Stream Region' began to discuss animatedly. All of them mocked Wang Xiao for not knowing his own limits and not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth. They continuously praised Jia Tao and created a real power for Jia Tao.

"Jia Tao is a Pill Dao genius from the 'Xuandu Region'. He is a Quasi-tier 7 alchemist with great strength. However, Wang Xiao is not an ordinary person. His strength cannot be underestimated. During the Pill Grading Assembly... He refined 40 substandard spirit pills in one go, and 37 of them were of flawless quality. After that, he fought with Jia Tao to refine the Tribulation Crossing Spirit Pill, and won against Jia Tao with 80% medicinal strength in terms of quality. From this, it could be concluded that Wang Xiao's alchemy strength was not inferior to Jia Tao's. This time, the only suspense in refining the 'Life and Death Pill' is that there will be a problem with Jia Tao every time he refines a pill five times. "

The young geniuses and prodigies from the Northern Corner Region and the Black Stream Region were like dogs that were licking Jia Tao's boots. From there, they belittled Wang Xiao. Some of the Hundred Herbs Hall students from the Alchemist Association who had participated in the Pill Grading Assembly could not help but retort.

" Slandering is simply slandering. Your Northern Chill Region's cultivators are all deceiving themselves and making irresponsible remarks. The peak of your Northern Chill Region's Pill Dao is only a tier 8 alchemist. Even Dao Elder Ling Xu, who carries the banner of the Pill Dao, lost to Young Master Jia. Who else can be used to defeat Young Master Jia? "

Hearing Zhong Zhilong's words, Wu Yunyun, Yang Bai Ling, Xiao Tianhu, and the others immediately rebutted.

"A young man who has fallen from grace in the Dao of Alchemy dares to challenge the most talented genius in the Dao of Alchemy. I have to say that he's very bold!"

A cultivator from the older generation from the other big domains said with admiration.

"What boldness? He's just overestimating himself, not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth, and losing his mind."

But soon, a cultivator crazily worshipping Jia Tao refuted.

As he spoke, the seats for the ceremony had already fallen one after another. The one in the lead was the emperor of the Golden Lion Country, Zhou Gongsheng. The rows at the back were arranged in a straight line. They were respectively the sect master of the Junde Hall, Lord Ling Xu, Lord Du Ye, Lord E Ye... The president of the Alchemist Association, Chen Ke, vice president Gu Youzhi, first elder Zhang Xuande, second elder Li Minghong, Green Cloud Chamber of Commerce's Northern Chill Region General Manager, Dongfang Yuchu, vice president Dongfang Cai Lai... The royal family's Longevity King, Zhou Yuen, Marquis Zhou Wenbo, Zhou Xiaoqian... Imperial City's first-rate aristocratic family, Chu Family... The Mao family... took their seats one after another. Luo Beiyi also arranged seats for the ceremony.

As for the people from the 'Black-Corner Region' and the 'Black-Corner Region', even the top young geniuses and prodigies did not set up seats for the viewing of the ceremony. Hence, they were watching from below the arena.

Very soon, both parties who were refining the 'Life Death Pill' arrived. They stood on the open ground. Jia Tao had already passed the questions of the five medicinal pills to the witnesses of refining the 'Life Death Pill' this time around, Mao Ping He Rong Chang.

At this moment, Jia Tao flew over in his embroidered robe. His eyes did not easily sweep in all directions. His expression was indifferent, and he had a cold and arrogant appearance. He was high-spirited, and the temperament of the Alchemy Dao genius of the Xuan Du Region was undoubtedly revealed.

Jia Tao's appearance immediately attracted countless cultivators' cheers. It was not just some female cultivators, but many pairs of beautiful eyes that emitted stars of worship.

"Life and Death Pill, first round. Question: Third refined Essence Pill. Requires' Perfection 'and above to determine the victor with the medicinal strength. The time limit is one hour. If you fail to refine it within two hours, you will be judged as losing."

"Pill of Life and Death, three wins in five rounds. The winner will live and the loser will die. The battle begins!"

The host was Mao Ping. Mao Ping announced the rules of the Life and Death Pill. As for the topic of the competition, there was already a staff member of the Alchemist Association speaking. He had brought the ingredients for the 'Third Refining Essence Pill' to the two of them before they committed the crime. There were a total of five portions of the ingredients.

Under normal circumstances, he would be able to refine five portions of the medicinal ingredients within two hours.

When everyone heard 'the victor lives and the loser dies', they could not help but tremble. No one in the Northern Chill Region had initiated it for thousands of years. Many of the younger generation had never even heard of it. Everyone looked at Wang Xiao and Jia Tao with serious expressions. They knew that only one person could leave the Alchemy Square today. The other person would become a corpse and stay in the square forever.

Alchemists did not advocate killing. If there was a life and death grudge between the two of them... In terms of inaction and killing, it was often decided by Pill Alchemy. In terms of right and wrong, whether it was true or not, or life and death... "As a result, the 'Life and Death Pill' was born in response to fate. Different from ordinary battles of pills, 'Life and Death Pills' did not pay attention to the success rate, but paid attention to the time limit of the pill and the medicinal strength of the pill. This would determine victory and defeat. Hence, it was much stricter when compared to ordinary pill competitions. After all, it was a pill competition that determined life and death.1

"Third Refinement Essence Pill... I didn't think that it would be such a rare medicinal pill..."

The expressions of Chen Ke and Lord Ling Xu, who were seated at the viewing gallery, changed. From the looks of it, this medicinal pill was a middle-grade spirit medicine. A portion of it could at most refine one medicinal pill, but it was extremely complicated and complicated to refine. Its effect was merely to strengthen one's physique and consolidate one's innate Qi. It could be completely replaced by other medicinal pills. Hence, it was also extremely rare, and almost no one would specifically research it.

"Jia Tao came prepared. He could even think of such an uncommon medicinal pill. Moreover, if it's listed as a topic, it's bound to be within his grasp!"

Gu Youzhi, who was beside Chen Ke, said, his face similarly filled with worry.

On the other hand, Wang Xiao took a look at the pill formula that was delivered along with the medicinal pill. His face was calm and composed, and he closed his eyes to comprehend the refining method of the Third Refinement Essence Pill. He did not feel the slightest bit of pressure.

On Jia Tao's side, he had already condensed the Pill Fire and started refining the pill...
