Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

Chapter 355 Proud Gu Liu

Lu Yu is facing off against Gu Liu, the strongest genius alchemist of his generation in the Medicine King Valley. This match has attracted a lot of attention.

In the spectator stands, the Medicine King Valley's Elder is chatting happily with the Grand Hall Master of the Greedy Wolf Hall.

"This Lu Yu is a disciple of your Greedy Wolf Hall, right? He has impressive strength. It seems that your Greedy Wolf Hall will produce another great alchemist in the future."

"Hehe, Elder, you're joking. When it comes to the number of great alchemists, who can compete with the Medicine King Valley? As for this kid, he hasn't even reported to the Grand Hall yet."

"It seems this kid has big ambitions, wanting to make a name for himself in the Greedy Wolf Hall. But in the end, he is still a member of your Greedy Wolf Hall. He won't be snatched away by others."

"Hehe..."

The Grand Hall Master of the Greedy Wolf Hall chuckled, revealing a meaningful expression.

"By the way, have some of the young disciples from the Medicine King Valley come out this time? We can send a few people from our Greedy Wolf Hall for a trial. We have been cooperating for so long."

"These disciples are not talented. Let's talk about it after the competition."

The Elder laughed and said.

While they were secretly competing, Lu Yu and Gu Liu were fiercely competing in the arena.

Both of them were skilled alchemists, and their movements were smooth and fluid.

Even the disciples of the Medicine King Valley couldn't tell who was stronger based on their speed and actions.

Everyone could only judge their current situation through their expressions.

"He's really good at pretending..."

Seeing Lu Yu constantly putting on an expression of being unable to keep up, Mingxin secretly laughed.

Lu Yu had just told her that the Diamond Pill was too simple for him, easier than eating and drinking.

In the past, every time he refined a batch of pills, there were no less than ten perfect quality pills. So he was confident in this competition.

As for how many pills Gu Liu could refine, Lu Yu thought at most it would be a tie with him.

And he didn't really believe that this genius from the Medicine King Valley could be stronger than him.

After an hour since the start of the competition, the materials in the alchemy furnaces of both of them had basically melted.

The next step was to use the alchemy fire to refine the impurities in the materials, leaving behind the liquid medicine.

At this moment, Lu Yu suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

Since the Qi-Replenishing Pill and the Vigor Pill could produce companion pills before, couldn't the Diamond Pill do the same?

Especially since there was a main ingredient in this pill called Strong Grass, which could not only be used to refine the Diamond Pill but also as one of the materials for the Qi-Replenishing Pill.

However, the methods of refining these two pills were completely different, especially in the treatment of the Strong Grass.

The Strong Grass contained two attributes, fire and wood.

When refining the Diamond Pill, Lu Yu used the fire attribute, while when refining the Qi-Replenishing Pill, he used the wood attribute.

Now what Lu Yu needed to do was to refine the wood attribute and turn it into medicinal residue, leaving behind the fire attribute to refine into pills.

But was the wood attribute material really useless? Couldn't it be used for something else?

Lu Yu pondered and his refining speed gradually slowed down.

For him, this moment of inspiration was even more important than winning this competition.

As he focused on thinking about improving his alchemy techniques, the expressions of the people around him who were watching the excitement completely changed.

No matter how you looked at him now, he seemed to be in a difficult refining state. It wouldn't be surprising if the furnace exploded in the next second.

Even Mingxin secretly started to worry this time. It was clear from his expression that he was deep in thought.

This is a competition, not the usual alchemy practice. He is still pondering, which proves that he is not familiar with this pill and is thinking about the next refining method.

"Hehe, dare to challenge our sixth junior brother? He can't even refine the Diamond Pill. He should go home and cultivate properly."

"That's right, our sixth junior brother can easily defeat him with just one hand. It's a pity, if our sixth junior brother dealt with Ling Tianqing just now, and our third senior brother dealt with this kid, they would all be able to advance."

"Luck is also part of strength. Ling Tianqing had good luck."

Ling Tianqing felt annoyed listening to their words.

But he didn't get excited. It's not that he's not angry, but that he can't win.

The other side has seven or eight senior brothers, while he only has his own older brother.

The strengths of several people are comparable. If he were to fight against seven or eight of them, does he really think he has the ability to do so?

"Whatever, let's give it a try!"

After pondering for a while, Lu Yu finally came up with a win-win solution.

Isn't it just using those medicinal residues? Why not do the same as when he competed with Mingxin before, condensing the medicinal power from those residues on the surface of the Diamond Pill?

Originally, the Diamond Pill was a kind of fire attribute pill. If mixed with the wood attribute liquid on the outside, it would not affect the effect of the pill, but instead enhance the power of the fire attribute.

"Adding fuel to the fire, that's it!"

He slapped his thigh hard, and then instantly became spirited.

When he was refining just now, he had already finished processing the other materials, leaving only the Strong Grass.

Now he doesn't need to separate the medicinal residues, just process the two types of liquids separately.

Mix the fire attribute liquid with other liquids to make the pill, and make the wood attribute liquid into the shell...

With this operation, the time required for refining the Diamond Pill naturally became longer than usual.

So, after more than three hours, Gu Liu was the first to open the furnace.

"Ten perfect-grade Diamond Pills, not bad."

The three judges inspected them and nodded.

This was almost a perfect alchemy, even if Lu Yu's pill refining skills were stronger, at most it would be a tie.

But none of them believed that he could really turn the tables.

"Hehe, I concede."

Gu Liu stood up with a proud face, put away his alchemy furnace, and was about to walk towards the participating contestants.

If he failed the competition, he would be directly expelled from the stage.

And now, as he walked towards the participating contestants, the judges did not object.

"Sixth junior brother is indeed amazing, a perfect alchemy right from the start. The reputation of our Medicine King Valley depends on you."

"Yes, no one has achieved a perfect alchemy in the entire competition. You are one of a kind, sixth junior brother!"

"Sixth junior brother is awesome!"

Several senior brothers from the Medicine King Valley kept praising him, making Gu Liu feel a bit inflated.

"It's just winning one match. There are still two matches left to get first place."

Gu Liu said arrogantly.

From his words, it seemed as if first place was already in his pocket, as if he could reach out and grab it at any time.
