BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM

Chapter 380: One Person Saves the Day!

"Green Lotus Core Flame!"

"Such a renowned treasure on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, even Old Fa Ma desires it greatly, yet this kid has obtained it. That’s truly remarkable!"

Upon hearing Fa Ma and Hai Bodong’s words, Jia Xingtian was also astonished. As a Dou Emperor powerhouse, he naturally understood the terrifying power of such a miraculous gift of nature.

In the VIP section, Princess Yao Ye’s gaze toward Liu Ling held an unusual light.

She had originally thought that the most dazzling figure in this competition would be Xiao Yan, whom Nalan Jie and others had praised highly.

But unexpectedly, Liu Ling’s performance was so radiant that it overshadowed everyone else.

"After this competition, I must personally visit Liu Ling. Such a young genius... I must establish good relations with him on behalf of the royal family!" Princess Yao Ye made her decision swiftly.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yi Xian and Xiao Yan were both significantly affected by Liu Ling’s reveal of the Green Lotus Core Flame.

"Haha! I didn’t expect Senior Brother to have obtained a Heavenly Flame too. That’s fantastic!" Xiao Yi Xian was overjoyed internally.

"Xiao Yan, that flame in the boy’s hand is the Green Lotus Core Flame... It seems that the Dou Venerate powerhouse I encountered back then has a close connection with him," Yao Lao reminded Xiao Yan.

"The Green Lotus Core Flame!"

Upon hearing Yao Lao’s reminder, Xiao Yan’s eyes suddenly blazed with excitement.

The cultivation method he practiced, the Flame Mantra, could only evolve by relying on these rare Heavenly Flames scattered across the world. And now, one was right before his eyes. How could he not be tempted?

However, just as a spark of greed rose in his heart, Xiao Yan hurriedly shook his head to dispel the thought.

"Leaving aside the Dou Venerate powerhouse closely tied to him, who even my teacher fears, there’s also that shapeshifting magical beast constantly lurking in the shadows, making it impossible to deal with him!"

Recalling the overwhelming power behind Liu Ling, Xiao Yan could only sigh inwardly. He then blocked out all external distractions and focused on his second attempt at refining.

On Liu Ling’s side, after summoning the Green Lotus Core Flame, he immediately tossed three medicinal ingredients into his cauldron. The cyan flame split into three strands, tightly wrapping around the herbs.

Then, to everyone’s astonishment, Liu Ling steadily extracted the essence of all three herbs at the same time, in a time far shorter than it would take an ordinary third-grade alchemist to extract a single herb.

After extracting the essences of the three herbs, Liu Ling swiftly began refining the next batch.

Many alchemists watched his entire process. Some who had already failed once were observing from several stone platforms away, their attention fixed on Liu Ling.

"Huff!"

On Xiao Yan’s side, he had just refined two ingredients from his second batch when he noticed that Liu Ling had already finished extracting all of his herbs. Naturally, this did not include the Thick Earth Ganoderma, which Liu Ling had questioned earlier.

"This Liu Ling is truly skilled. He noticed the flaw in the recipe without even attempting a single fusion!"

On the high platform, Fa Ma observed the two untouched Thick Earth Ganoderma on Liu Ling’s table, and admiration filled his eyes.

"Lord Fa Ma, Liu Ling has discovered the problem with the recipe. With so many eyes on him, others will soon catch on to the secret of the formula. When that happens, the significance of this round might be lost..." Chelsea, standing beside Fa Ma, voiced his concern.

Hearing Chelsea's worries, Fa Ma waved his hand dismissively and spoke calmly, "It’s fine. This round has already eliminated many. The number of participants now is about 60% lower than the first round. With the exam nearing its end, anyone who realizes the problem and can still successfully refine the Windwalking Pill in this final stretch has proven their competence."

"Lord Fa Ma is absolutely right!" Chelsea responded respectfully, nodding in agreement.

"Strange, that person has stopped refining, but why hasn't he extracted the Thick Earth Ganoderma? Could it be..."

"The Thick Earth Ganoderma is not an ingredient for refining the Windwalking Pill. The formula provided by the Alchemist Guild has a flaw."

"I see now! This seemingly simple second round actually hides such a profound mystery."

At this point, fewer than a hundred alchemists remained on the field.

Among them, many had gained insight from observing the leftover ingredients on Liu Ling's platform, casting grateful looks in his direction.

This group included none other than Xiao Yi Xian, who had not yet made her move.

Hearing the exclamations from those around her, Xiao Yi Xian looked toward Liu Ling at the center of the arena with admiration in her eyes, thinking to herself, "As expected of Senior Brother! He actually figured out that the formula had a problem!"

Not only was Liu Ling's flame unmatched in power, but his refining experience was also extremely impressive. After extracting the essence of eight different herbs in three batches, he employed the same technique he used when refining the Bone Regrowth Pill.

He placed all the refined ingredients into the cauldron at once.

The higher the pill’s grade, the more attention must be paid to the order of ingredient fusion. One small mistake could result in failure. While this wasn’t as strict for pills below the third grade, pulling off such a move was still extremely difficult—even Fa Ma, the president of the Jia Ma Empire Alchemist Guild standing on the high platform, couldn't guarantee success every time.

Seeing Liu Ling's actions on the plaza, Fa Ma sighed inwardly, somewhat helpless. "This kid, does he have to take risks every time? With his strength, he could have easily fused the ingredients one by one without issue, but he insists on using such an extreme method!"

"Wow, does he really have to show off like that?"

Xiao Yan, who had just re-extracted the materials he lost in his earlier failure, watched Liu Ling's bold operation with surprise.

"Fusing eight ingredients simultaneously!"

"No, I can’t compete with him on this one."

Shaking his head, Xiao Yan quickly dispelled any reckless ideas. Simultaneously fusing eight ingredients was too risky—he didn’t want to take that chance. Instead, he focused on carefully refining the ingredients one by one.

As time passed, and under many nervous gazes, Liu Ling's fusion proceeded flawlessly.

Inside the cauldron, a perfectly round pill had taken shape, and Liu Ling was using his cyan flame to slowly nurture it. At a certain point, Liu Ling suddenly lifted his hand and slapped the cauldron lid open.

A pill wrapped in cyan flames shot out and was swiftly caught by Liu Ling, who quickly placed it into a jade bottle.

"That was so cool!"

At this moment, both the audience and the VIP section were filled with girls who couldn’t help but cast admiring glances at Liu Ling, their hearts aflutter.
