Chapter 277: Changing the Rules

    

hat he was also full of curiosity about this mysterious mirage."Alright, little junior brother, you have three months left. You better make the most of your cultivation."Although mirages are alluring,...During the conversation between Elder Han and the Patriarch, many disciples within the Land of Transmission also successively reported on the ripeness of their medicinal pills in their pill furnaces.

In the end, of these remaining five hundred people, less than a hundred answered correctly and moved on to the fourth round of the competition.

The fourth round tests one's divine consciousness!

Although most of the disciples who initially participated in the competition were at the Pulse Meridian Realm.

But now, all that remains are those of the Blessed Land realm and above, with even four apothecaries at the Void Heaven realm.

The realm of cultivation differs, and the strength of one's divine consciousness naturally varies accordingly.

For fairness' sake, this round of competition divided the numerous disciples into more than ten groups based on their respective realms.

Ginger Cloud, of course, was placed in the group of those at the second level of Blessed Land.

When Jiang Yun's cultivation realm was announced, the disciples of Yaoshén Sect finally let out a collective sigh of relief.

Because Ginger Cloud's attainments in medicine had already shocked them too much.

The good thing is that his cultivation level, unlike his alchemy skills which were astounding and shocking to the world, was at least within an acceptable range for everyone.

However, he had long since hidden himself among the observing disciples, fearing that Jiang Yun would discover his Guo Si. Yet, he was more clear about it than anyone else.

Although Jiang Yun's realm is only at the second level of Fu Di, the strength he can unleash surpasses that of the fifth level of Fu Di.

Even, possibly even higher.

Because of this, Guo Si completely gave up on the idea of revenge against Jiang Yun.

Nowadays, Jiang Yun has not only gained the respect of many disciples from Yaoshhenzong, but has also aroused the interest of several high-level pharmacists, including Elder Han.

Although he tried hard to ingratiate himself with Li Changlin and Yang Shichong, the two master and disciple together were still no match for a single Han elder.

If he were to seek revenge on Jiangyun now, what awaited him would be far more than the loss of an arm.

The fourth round of the competition ended quickly.

Although Gingercloud still displayed astonishingly powerful divine consciousness, it did not cause too much of a stir either.

After all, his divine sense is powerful, but only relative to those of the same level.

It still lags behind even Cave Heaven cultivators and those who have attained the Full Bloom Realm.

However, in this round, it was Li Changlin, who had not made any remarkable appearances before, that unexpectedly stole the spotlight.

His grades were not only first in the Fudou Quartet but also second to Kan Ichiryu within the Fudou region.

As for Xiao Zheng, he ended up in last place, but at least he was stronger than Xie Xiaoyong, who was eliminated. He advanced to the fifth round of competition without much difficulty.

With the conclusion of the fourth round of trials, only ten individuals remain within the hallowed grounds of inheritance.

Among them, two were Cave Heaven cultivators, while the remaining eight were all blessed land cultivators.

And among these eight people, there were Jiang Yun, Xiao Zheng, Li Changlin, and Guan Yiming!

Although there were four consecutive rounds of competition, especially the stunning performance of the dark horse Jiangyun, all onlookers were moved.

But at this time, everyone was still full of spirit and not tired at all.

Because the fifth round is the most exciting round in the entire medicinal duel.

The content assessed in the previous four sections focuses on a specific single quality that pharmacists must possess.

But the fifth round of alchemy was testing comprehensive qualities instead.

Even, many people agree with what Guan Yiming said to Jiang Yun before.

To refine pills is the true path of an alchemist, the real way of medicine.

After all, the entire process of alchemy is fraught with too many uncertain factors.

Any step, any place where even the slightest error occurs, could potentially affect the success or failure of the final alchemy process.

So, no matter how well you perform in the previous competition, if you cannot successfully refine the elixir, you will still be eliminated.

Of course, the remaining ten people, besides Jiang Yun, were all eager to try, determined to show off their full pharmaceutical prowess and make a final desperate effort!

Xiao Zheng was no exception, and his gaze didn't look at anyone else, only staring at Guan Yiming.

Guan Yiming naturally felt Xiao Zheng's gaze on him, but he completely ignored it.

A defeated subordinate, who has the qualifications to be worthy of one's attention

Even, he didn't look at anyone, just eyes on his nose, and nose on his heart, the whole person seemed to be in meditation. Gradually, even his breathing became long and slow.

Seeing Guan Yiming's current state, Jiang Yun couldn't help but nod in approval.

Although Guan Yiming is a person of poor character, he can be called a pharmacy genius. In the field of pharmacy, he does have places that others cannot reach.

To be able to enter such a peaceful state in such a short amount of time is something that ordinary people cannot do.

Even Jiang Yun could determine that Guan Yiming had not given his all in the previous four rounds of competition, and it was only in the final round that he would reveal his true peak state.

As for Li Changlin, he kept letting out a cold snort in his heart.

Especially when his gaze fell on Xiao Zheng, his eyes couldn't hide the smug look.

He knew that in this final round of the competition, he would definitely defeat Xiao Zheng.

Because, Master has already taken care of everything for himself.

However, his pride was dashed in an instant!

This pot of cold water came from Elder Han!

As you all know, this Alchemy Duel is of great importance, so I have decided to make a slight change to the rules for the fifth round!

"In previous rounds of this competition, you each chose the type of elixir you were most proficient in to refine. But this time, I will divide the fifth round into two smaller rounds!"

In the first round of competition, each of you will receive a brand new pill formula. Each of you will also have two chances to refine pills according to the formula.

"Success, and you move on to the true final round; failure, and you're out!"

Elder Han's words fell, instantly plunging the Yaoshengzong into silence.

Even five Heavenly Pharmacists and thirty-six Earth Pharmacists were left dumbfounded.

Because they didn't know about the rule changes in the fifth round before this moment.

Evidently, this was a decision made by Elder Han on the spur of the moment.

"Elder Han, this is not appropriate!"

Seeing Li Changlin's pleading gaze, Yang Shichong gritted his teeth and stood up, shouting.

Elder Han turned his head to look at Yang Shichong and said faintly, "How is this improper"

"The rules of the Great Pill Competition are those passed down by our ancestors from generation to generation, and they have never changed."

"Now, the elders have unilaterally changed the rules. Not only do they defy the wishes of our ancestors, but they are also a little unfair to the disciples who participated in the competition!"

"Oh" Elder Han raised an eyebrow and said, "The rules were indeed set by our predecessors, but as the Head Elder of the Medicine Dao in this sect, can't I set my own rules"

“This……”

Yang Shichun was speechless at once.

The status of the Elder Pharmacist, in some aspects, even surpasses that of the Sect Master.

He said that changing the rules would be impossible, even for the headmaster himself.

Next, Elder Han's gaze turned to the ten people in the place of inheritance: "Among you, does anyone feel that the rule I have changed is unfair"

Ginger was tight-lipped, at this point, there was no chance for him as an outsider to speak up.

And the remaining nine people, after glancing at each other, all shook their heads except for Li Changlin.

They all made it to where they are today by their own merit, so no matter how the rules change, as long as everyone is treated equally, there's no unfairness.

Elder Han nodded in satisfaction and said, “In that case, the first round of the competition will now begin!”
