Chapter 88: Star Picking Flow

"How is this possible?"

One of the judges shouted in disbelief, "How could he have completed so many steps in such a short time? It's unheard of that he successfully refined a second-grade elixir in just one stick of incense!"

You have to know that alchemy is a very delicate skill. Even a veteran second-grade alchemist like Master Mo has to sweat profusely and work hard beside the elixir furnace for more than half an hour before he can refine the Chenglu Pill.

"Of course there is a way to do it."

Master Mo said, "Haven't you heard of Zhaixingliu?"

"Zhaixingliu?"

Two of the judges were stunned, as if they had never heard of this name.

But the remaining judge suddenly changed color and said in disbelief: "Mr. Mo, you don't mean to say that the refining method used by this young man just now is the way of Zhaixingliu, right?"

"That's exactly what I mean!" Master Mo said.

The other two referees looked at each other and asked, "What is Zhaixingliu?"

"Zhaixingliu is a school of alchemy that existed in ancient times."

Master Mo said, "Zhaixingliu is different from ordinary alchemy schools. It takes a wild and grand way. For example, ordinary alchemy schools require alchemists to strictly follow the standards for every operation. If there is a mistake, it may affect the final result of alchemy. However, the alchemists of Zhaixingliu are different. They emphasize free play, casual techniques, and free and easy control. Depending on the different conditions of each alchemy, the techniques will also be different."

"But don't underestimate Zhaixingliu because of this. Zhaixingliu is not a blind practice. Every alchemist of Zhaixingliu has gone through tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of actual alchemy practices, and has integrated every step and every detail of alchemy into his bones, so that he can practice freely. "

"Absolutely impossible!"

The referee shook his head and said, "The Star Picking Flow has been lost, and even if it has not been lost, only an old monster who has been immersed in the Dao of Alchemy for a lifetime can master it. Just him? Even if he has been studying the Dao of Alchemy since he was born, how many years has it been? There is absolutely no possibility of this happening."

Master Mo said in a deep voice: "At first, I didn't believe it. But the alchemy technique used by Su Xiaoyou just now is clearly the long-lost Star Picking Flow. He seems to be refining it randomly and does not follow the traditional refining steps at all, but in the end, he can condense the pill so quickly. There is only one explanation, that is, he used the refining technique of the Star Picking Flow!"

"Impossible, I still don't believe it."

Although the referee said this, he was already hesitant in his heart. As Master Mo said, if Su Chen really refined it randomly, it would be impossible to condense the pill.

"Ridiculous, it's ridiculous."

Master Wang shouted, "You are all crazy, that kid is just fooling around, refining medicine randomly, can't you see it? I bet he definitely didn't succeed in condensing the pill, if you don't believe me, just wait and see."

"That's right, open the pill furnace and take a look, won't you know?"

Another referee echoed.

"The pill is done."

Just then, Su Chen's faint voice also sounded in the alchemy room.

Everyone's eyes were immediately focused on Su Chen, watching him take out a pill that was emitting hot steam from the pill furnace.

Master Mo walked up quickly, took the pill from Su Chen's hand, observed it carefully, and even cut a small piece from the pill and put it in his mouth to taste it.

After a moment, Master Mo smiled brightly and announced, "It is indeed the Chenglu Pill!"

"What? Did you really succeed in refining the Chenglu Pill?"

"It only took an incense stick of time? How is that possible?"

Several judges were all shocked and took turns to take the pill for identification. The results were all the same. It was indeed the Chenglu Pill!

"Let me see!"

Master Wang couldn't believe it at all. He almost snatched the pill from the last judge and roughly took off a piece and put it in his mouth to taste it.

In the end, he had to admit that it was indeed the Chenglu Pill!

At this moment, Master Wang was completely speechless. His face turned pale and blue, blue and pale, which was extremely wonderful.

The three judges looked at Master Wang with contempt. Today, through Master Wang, they finally knew what "self-humiliation" meant.

"I hereby announce that the Qinghe City Alchemy Branch will be promoted to a second-grade branch from today!"

Hearing the referee's announcement, Master Mo almost burst into tears. After waiting for so many years, the Qinghe City Alchemy Branch has finally been promoted to a second-grade branch!

"Brother Mo, congratulations!"

Several referees smiled and congratulated Master Mo.

They knew that with Master Mo's alchemy background, he could have left Qinghe City and gone to Anyang City to pursue a higher level of alchemy, but Master Mo did not do so. Instead, he stayed in the Qinghe City Alchemy Branch, in order to develop the Qinghe City Alchemy Branch into a powerful branch one day.

Now seeing that the Qinghe City Alchemy Guild has been promoted to the second grade, Master Mo has taken another step towards his ideal, and they are also sincerely happy for Master Mo.

"By the way, this is the certificate and badge of the second-grade branch. From today on, the equipment, materials and silver that Qinghe City Alchemy Branch receives from the headquarters will double every year. In a few days, the headquarters should send someone to deliver this year's materials and silver."

"In addition, this is the reward for promotion to the second-grade branch, Panlong grass."

The referee took out a red sandalwood box and opened it. Inside, a herb emitting a faint glow lay quietly. The herb had only one main stem and no branches. It was in a spiral and curved state, and its shape was like a flying dragon.

This is Panlong grass, an extremely scarce raw material for alchemy.

Master Mo took the red sandalwood box containing Panlong grass with both hands, and then handed it to Su Chen beside him.

"Thank you, Mr. Mo."

After thanking him, Su Chen put away the Panlong grass.

"What are you talking about, Su Xiaoyou? Thanks to you today, Qinghe City Alchemy Branch was promoted to the second-grade branch. I should thank you."

Master Mo said.

"I didn't expect that today, I could actually witness Zhaixingliu's alchemy skills with my own eyes. It's a great honor."

The referee also sighed. In his eyes, Su Chen is no longer a teenager, but a rare alchemy master.

I don't know what kind of force has cultivated such a genius of alchemy. Is there any hidden and powerful alchemy force nearby?

Master Wang was standing next to him, staring at the Panlong grass that Su Chen had put away. With his eyesight, he could naturally see that the age of this Panlong grass was definitely more than 200 years old, with strong medicinal properties and extremely valuable.

When Master Wang thought that this Panlong grass should have been his, but it ended up in Su Chen's hands, his heart was like bleeding.

Thinking that he needed this Panlong grass to refine a furnace of Lingfeng Dan, which was very important to him, Master Wang clenched his fists and suddenly said coldly: "Wait!"
