Chapter 265 - 265: 262: Destroying Three Furnaces in a

Even without the experiences from his previous life, with his pure alchemy talent, his understanding and comprehension of alchemy, refining a mere second-grade elixir would be a piece of cake for him. The pill quality would definitely be top-notch. Otherwise, he would not have been able to dominate the world of alchemy in his previous life at the mere age of twenty.

Of course, if he showed such a performance right from the start, it would be too astonishing. After weighing the pros and cons, Yang Chen decided to slow down his pace. There were many ways to become an overnight sensation, so there was no need to reveal too much of his expertise.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Yang Chen appeared very calm.

Only when the alchemy geniuses started to refine their pills in a hurry, Yang Chen leisurely put away the pill formula, and then meticulously selected the materials and threw them into the pill furnace for refining!

Not long after, there was a loud bang accompanied by a fragrant aroma as a genius encountered a pill refining failure.

In the blink of an eye, numerous pill refining failures occurred.

This disheartened many geniuses, as it was difficult to control the rhythm of pill formation when refining a pill for the first time. “Eh, someone has successfully made a pill!”

“It’s the pill fragrance!”

The genius who successfully refined the Chi Lian Dan elixir was ecstatic. He quickly removed the pill, which turned out to be a dark gray elixir.

This left the judges shaking their heads, unsatisfied with the result.

Obviously, this pill’s quality was not up to par, and it was merely a half-finished product.

Even though this genius managed to refine the Chi Lian Dan successfully, the pill’s quality was subpar, and it could only be considered a fluke. This did not represent anything.

Everyone’s eyes remained on Yang Chen, wondering how this genius, who had scored exceptionally well in the previous two assessments, would perform in this crucial third assessment.

With calm and composed demeanor, Yang Chen’s first furnace of pills showed results after the other geniuses completed their first round of refinement. An unpleasant smell filled the air, and black smoke emerged from the pill furnace.

“The pill is destroyed!”

“He failed!”

This caused several elders from the sects who had high hopes for Yang Chen to narrow their eyes. Yang Chen’s first attempt at pill refining had failed!

“As expected, even a genius would find it impossible to succeed on the first attempt when refining a new kind of elixir.”

Although Yang Chen’s pill refining failure disappointed many, it was a reasonable outcome, and no one thought it was a surprising event. However, what followed left the crowd with mixed expressions.

Because in the second attempt…

Yang Chen also destroyed the pill.

“He also destroyed the pill in his second attempt?”

“What’s going on?”

“Is it possible that Yang Chen only relied on luck in the previous two assessments and doesn’t have any real alchemy talent?”

Everyone knew that there were shortcuts in the previous two assessments, but there were none in the third one. This was because the elixir had never been seen before. It was a newly created elixir that even the examiners in Beishan Main City were unaware of until they received the pill formula, let alone the candidates.

So, if you could quickly refine the Chi Lian Dan, it would indicate your alchemy talent.

As of now, although most geniuses still failed in their attempts, some talented alchemists successfully refined the elixir during their second attempt with low-quality results. Yet, wasn’t this still better than not being able to refine at all?

Yang Chen’s failure to refine the Chi Lian Dan in his second attempt left many disappointed. Could it be that his genius was just a flash in the pan? Were his excellent scores in the previous two assessments mere flukes?

What they didn’t know was what Yang Chen was thinking.

Yang Chen remained calm and composed, not the least bit anxious or frustrated by his pill refining failures because it was all intentional. He had no intention of refining the Chi Lian Dan so early. It would be too shocking if he succeeded on the first attempt and produced a flawless pill. He wasn’t in a hurry and wanted to slow down a bit.

Then, he began refining the third furnace elixir.

As the fragrant aroma filled the air and black smoke rose from the pill furnace, the crowd focused their gaze on the scene, only to see Yang Chen destroying yet another pill in the third attempt.

This made many people sigh secretly and shook their heads incessantly.

“I thought we finally had a top-tier alchemy genius, but it turns out he couldn’t hold up in the third assessment.”

“Whether someone is a waste in alchemy or not will be revealed in this third assessment. Yang Chen has destroyed pills in three consecutive attempts, which indicates he probably doesn’t have alchemy talent. He is not worth pursuing with such talent.”

This caused Elder Yu from Huangshan Sect to chuckle, “This kid loves to take shortcuts. His martial artist assessment was like this too, and now the Way of Alchemy is the same. Although I don’t know how he obtained those excellent scores in the first two assessments, based on this vital third assessment, it is evident that he did not rely on his talent. I wonder what tricks he used, hmph!”

“Oh, by the way, Elder Luo, I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed this time. This kid, haha, doesn’t seem to have much alchemy talent. Your alchemy genius, whom you held high hopes for, seems to be nothing more than a useless person. We have plenty of these so-called ‘geniuses’ in our Huangshan Sect Outer Sect. If your Yanhua Pool is really that desperate, we wouldn’t mind sending a few to you. Of course, the prerequisite is that you have to exchange them with girls from your Yanhua Pool, haha.” Elder Yu changed the subject and laughed at the beautiful woman with the Luo surname.

Seeing Yang Chen’s pill refining results turn out so disastrously and hearing Elder Yu’s provocative words, the Luoxing Beauty snorted coldly, giving Yang Chen a deep glance, feeling that something was off.

She had never expected such a result from Yang Chen’s pill refinement.

However, she did not think that Yang Chen’s abilities were just limited to this, as she had not seen any panic in his eyes. Even if he was more mature, he wouldn’t be this calm after failing three consecutive attempts in such a situation, right?

As people discussed Yang Chen’s pill refining results, with some mocking or feeling disappointed, Yang Chen remained seated calmly on the ground.

Although he didn’t know what the people on the viewing platform were saying, he could guess from their reactions.

Not to mention others, the alchemy geniuses beside him had gloating expressions and sneered as they watched his poor results. Some even spoke sarcastic words without any qualms.

Yang Chen turned a blind eye to all this. At this point, he finally leisurely put the fourth batch of materials into the pill furnace and began refining. It was time to show some real skills from the fourth furnace onward..
