People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

He paused, glanced at the hesitant alchemists, then continued with a smile:

"Since I have invited all the masters here, I will certainly not let you return empty-handed. As I said before, no matter what the result is, I will prepare a generous gift for each master."

After hearing Tang Zhen's words, the alchemists present all breathed a sigh of relief. After all, with Tang Zhen's status, it was unlikely that he would tease them for no reason. Since they were already here, it would not hurt to give it a try. Even if the challenge failed, for the sake of Burning Flame Valley, they would not make a wasted trip.

Besides, this Nine Dragon Thunder Fire was a strange fire that every alchemist present was fascinated by. Although they were not lucky enough to own such a treasure, they could personally experience its power and have some contact with this rare strange fire, so this trip was worth it.

Anyway, even if these people cannot meet Tang Zhen's conditions, they will be able to witness the eighth-grade alchemist personally making pills, and perhaps learn a few tricks from him.

Everyone felt more relaxed after thinking this. At this time, an old man with white hair and flowing beard stood up first. He smiled and said, "Since Master Tang has said so, how can we not give it a try? I will shamelessly take the lead and show off my ugliness!"

"Okay, Master Mo, please!" Tang Zhen's eyes lit up and he waved his hand gently. The silver flame slowly rose into the air and floated quietly in the air above everyone's heads, as if waiting for the old man's challenge.

The old man, whom Tang Zhen called Master Mo, took a deep breath, then shouted softly, summoning a red flame. His soul power was released and merged into the flame, forming a flame man.

"Go!" Elder Mo ordered in a low voice, and with a flick of his finger, the little fire man flew out quickly, rushing straight towards the silver-white flame slowly rising in the air.

In an instant, the nine silver dragons in the silver-white flames seemed to be awakened. They pounced towards the flame man and made shocking dragon roars, which made everyone present feel oppressed.

In just a few breaths, the flame armor on the outside of the fire man was torn to pieces by nine silver dragons. Then, the dragons devoured the soul power inside the fire man. The scene was so intense that everyone held their breath.

As the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire devoured Master Mo's soul power, his face instantly lost color, and he couldn't help but groan, staggering back a few steps until he stabilized his body. He forced a bitter smile and said self-deprecatingly:

"The Nine Dragons Thunder Fire is as powerful as its reputation says. It burned up all the soul power I cultivated with great effort in just a few minutes."

Seeing that Master Mo, a top-level sixth-grade alchemist, couldn't even last a minute, the alchemists present all changed their expressions. They had a deeper understanding of the destructive power of the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire, and a sense of awe rose in their hearts.

The power of the strange fire is so terrifying.

After a brief silence, alchemists stepped forward one after another, demonstrating their respective skills. However, even the strongest sixth-grade alchemist only lasted five minutes.

Tang Zhen's face showed more and more helplessness. Finally, everyone's attention was focused on the last two Danta guest elders who had not yet appeared. They became everyone's last hope.

The two elders exchanged glances, and then the old man known as Master Huan stood up first, flipped his palm lightly, and summoned a ball of white flame. The flame soared into the sky, and there was a hint of cold air around it.

A hint of surprise flashed in Tang Zhen's eyes, and he said with a little surprise: "Master Huan, your flame is somewhat similar to the Bone Spirit Cold Fire. Could this be the legendary Sky Bone Python's Heavenly Cold Fire?"

Master Huan smiled and nodded, confirming Tang Zhen's guess: "Yes, this is the Heavenly Cold Fire. It has some origins with the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, so its power is far greater than that of ordinary beast fire."

As soon as he finished speaking, Master Huan's soul power surged out from his forehead and poured into the white flame. The flame instantly transformed into a white python, which flashed and rushed straight into the silver-white flame.

Immediately, nine fire dragons pounced fiercely. But this white python was also extraordinary, and was able to stubbornly guard its own flames, not letting the fire dragons devour it.

Master Huan looked focused and solemn. Facing the continuous attacks of nine fire dragons, he tried his best to control the white python, dodging left and right, and struggling to remain undefeated.

As the python and the fire dragon fought fiercely in the flames, Master Huan's face became paler and paler, and beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead, which showed how much pressure he was under.

As every minute and every second of time passed, Tang Zhen and the alchemists present had their eyes filled with anticipation.

Finally, the ten minutes were up. Master Huan quickly waved his hand and pulled the white python that was about to be swallowed by the nine fire dragons out of the flames and took it back into his body.

"Well done, Master Huan succeeded!" Tang Zhen applauded and praised. It seemed that Master Huan could make it through, and perhaps his companions could be just as successful.

After Master Huan took back the python, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "The Nine Dragons Thunder Fire is indeed the twelfth on the list of strange fires, and its power is truly convincing."

Hearing this, Tang Zhen smiled slightly, then turned to another guest elder and said, "Master Xiao, it's your turn."

The old man called Master Xiao hesitated for a moment, but finally stood up. He raised his hand and summoned a cluster of deep blue flames. The power of the soul was injected into it, and the flames quickly transformed into a fire whale.

The Fire Whale swung its tail and rushed into the flames. Nine fire dragons immediately surrounded it and started a fierce fight with the Fire Whale. The Fire Whale was instantly covered in wounds.

Time passed slowly, and Tang Zhen even showed a smile on his face, but in the eighth minute, the Fire Whale could not hold on any longer.

The fire whale was torn to pieces by the nine fire dragons, and Master Xiao's soul power also disappeared. His face turned pale in an instant, he sighed softly, and shook his head at Tang Zhen.

There was a hint of disappointment in Tang Zhen's eyes. He had thought that Master Xiao might succeed, but in the end he fell just short.

However, the disappointment soon disappeared, his expression returned to calm, and he said in a steady tone: "Everyone has worked hard. I originally planned to find two people to help, but now it seems that only Master Huan has passed..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Zhen's gaze involuntarily turned to Xiao Ling beside him. He had already made up his mind. It seemed that in the end, he would have to ask Xiao Ling to take action personally to ensure that everything went smoothly.

At the same time, Tang Huoer, who was standing next to Tang Zhen, also looked at Xiao Ling expectantly. At that moment, this young man of the same age as her seemed to have become her last ray of hope.

Noticing the gazes from Tang Zhen and Tang Huo'er, Xiao Ling placed Xiao Diao on his shoulders.

Feeling the gazes of Tang Zhen and Tang Huoer, Xiao Ling gently placed Xiao Diao on his shoulder.

He first met Tang Huoer's expectant eyes, and saw a pitiful look on her face, which reminded Xiao Ling of her straightforwardness when they first met, and he couldn't help but find it a little amusing.

Xiao Ling smiled at Tang Huoer, nodded, and then looked away.

Then, Xiao Ling turned his gaze to Tang Zhen, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a hint of playfulness: "Why, Valley Master Tang Zhen, are you planning to ask me to help?"

"Indeed," Tang Zhen forced a smile on his face, his tone full of respect, "I, Master Huan and Master Xiao, working together, may have a 20% success rate. But the problem is, we don't have many medicinal herbs in Fenyan Valley, and we can't afford to fail a few times. So, in order to avoid any accidents, I still have to ask Master Xiao Ling to come out in person."

Tang Zhen's smile was accompanied by a subtle nervousness. After all, this was not just about a pill, but also about the life and death of his precious daughter. As a father, his worry and concern were self-evident.

"Since Valley Master Tang Zhen has spoken, there is naturally no reason for me to refuse. However, Valley Master Tang Zhen, you should still remember my conditions, right?" Xiao Ling nodded slightly, the casual look on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a serious look.

As he spoke, Xiao Ling glanced at one side of the hall, where several elders from the Burning Flame Valley were talking to each other. He could guess what they were thinking without asking any more questions. Obviously, these old antiques from the Burning Flame Valley were unwilling to pass on the secret method of the Three Mysterious Transformations of the Skyfire, which was why they let other alchemists try it first.

"Haha, Master Xiao Ling, please rest assured," Tang Zhen smiled and nodded, his tone firm and sincere, "As long as you can successfully refine the Fire Bodhisattva Pill, I will teach you the Three Mysterious Transformations of the Heavenly Fire in the Burning Flame Valley without reservation."

As soon as Tang Zhen finished speaking, the elders headed by Wu Chen looked embarrassed, but they didn't say much. They just exchanged glances and silently accepted the decision.

The alchemists around them all showed understanding. So that's why I heard that Master Xiao Ling's conditions were quite harsh.

The name of the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire was very famous. It was the treasure of Burning Flame Valley and a unique secret technique. Normally, this secret technique would never be easily passed on to outsiders unless it was absolutely necessary.

It’s no wonder that Fenyan Valley would want to invite these alchemists to try it first. If the positions were reversed, everyone would probably make the same decision.

"Of course I trust the credibility of Valley Master Tang Zhen. I will take this matter. Let's not drag it out. Time waits for no one." As Xiao Ling spoke, he gently held Qing Lin's soft and boneless little hand and slowly stood up.

He turned around and smiled at Tang Zhen, "Master Tang, please give me the recipe and materials. I am confident that I can make a seventh-grade high-level elixir, but if I want to hit the target right away, I have to put in some effort to learn the recipe and process in advance."

"Haha, great, Master Xiao Ling, please come this way," Tang Zhen led the way with a smile, his laughter revealing a sense of ease, "I'll take you to our alchemy area right away."

Seeing Xiao Ling nod in agreement, Tang Zhen's smile became even brighter. In any case, his daughter's life was saved.

Hearing that Xiao Ling agreed to help refine the pill, Tang Huoer's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.

This kind of drastic mood swing was a completely unprecedented experience for her. At this moment, she could feel her heartbeat accelerating involuntarily, and her emotions became somewhat volatile.

Chapter 372 Refining

Tang Huo'er watched Xiao Ling and her father's backs gradually going away, and a complex emotion surged in her heart. But it was only for a moment, she bit her lips hard and quickly followed.

The alchemists who were originally sitting quietly in the hall, upon seeing this scene, could no longer hold back and stood up one after another, following the footsteps of Xiao Ling and the others as they left. Their faces were filled with an excitement that was almost fanatical.

This was a scene where an eighth-grade alchemy master was personally making pills. Such an opportunity was rare, and if you missed it, you would never see it again. Of course, they had to seize this opportunity to observe and learn from it.

……

The vast valley is full of greenery, with occasional fiery red maple leaves among the lush trees, which looks particularly pleasing to the eye. In the center of the valley, there is a spacious square paved with red volcanic rocks, which is particularly eye-catching.

In the center of the square stood a stone platform about ten feet high. At this time, many people had gathered around the square. Most of them were wearing the same red clothes. Obviously, they were disciples of Burning Flame Valley.

In addition, there were some white-haired old men wearing alchemist robes. These were the senior alchemists invited by Fen Yan Valley before, and there were also several guest alchemists of Fen Yan Valley among them.

After getting Xiao Ling's permission, these people came here happily, ready to witness with their own eyes how Xiao Ling displayed his alchemy skills.

At this moment, all eyes were focused on Xiao Ling in the center of the square. Some were expecting him, some were admiring him, and some were excited.

"Master Xiao Ling, if the alchemy goes well this time, we in Fenyan Valley will definitely teach you the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire that you desire. Moreover, I will also give you this Mountain Melting Cauldron as a reward, even if it is to make up for some of our previous shortcomings."

Tang Zhen waved his sleeves, and a huge shadow flew out from his storage ring and landed in the center of the stone platform with a bang. The heavy weight made the stone platform tremble slightly.

This is a huge medicine cauldron that is ten feet tall. The entire cauldron is fiery red in color, and there are patterns of volcanic eruptions carved on the round walls. At first glance, one can seem to feel a violent breath coming towards you, which makes people feel awe.

"Shan Rong Ding, this is a famous medicine cauldron on the Tian Ding list! Master Tang Zhen is really generous."

The alchemists standing by, who had been working in Zhongzhou for many years, all had broad horizons. They recognized the origin of this medicine cauldron at a glance. Wasn't this a member of the famous Tianding list in the alchemy world?

Although the thirteen medicine cauldrons on the Tian Ding List are not as famous as those on the Yi Huo List, all of them are flawless masterpieces that have been passed down from generation to generation. Each medicine cauldron has a charm that makes countless alchemists crazy. Who doesn't want to own such a treasure?

"The Mountain Melting Cauldron is indeed a good thing."

Xiao Ling raised his eyebrows. The treasures on the Tianding list have an irresistible attraction to any alchemist.

Although Xiao Ling already owned the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron and the Spirit Tempering Cauldron, two medicine cauldrons on the Heavenly Cauldron List, he could also play with Yao Chen's Black Demon Cauldron at any time as long as Xiao Ling was interested.

Naturally, the more treasures like the medicine cauldron on the Tianding list, the better, as they will always be useful in the future.

Thinking this in his mind, Xiao Ling looked at Tang Zhen with a hint of admiration in his eyes. Tang Zhen is such an honest man.

"The quality of this medicine cauldron is really good. I can help you think about it and modify it a little bit to make the effect of this medicine cauldron even better."

At this time, the little mink who had been lying on Xiao Ling's shoulder suddenly spoke.

"Okay, when we are free, I will ask you to help me and let me see how powerful the unique refining technology of Tianxuan Continent is."

Xiao Ling nodded slightly, a gentle smile appeared on his face, and responded.

Xiao Ling knew that Xiao Diao was good at refining equipment. But he didn't expect that Xiao Diao could even improve the medicine cauldron on the Tian Ding list, which made Xiao Ling full of expectations for the improved medicine cauldron.

"Hehe, if you don't mind, using this mountain melting cauldron as the base material, and adding some high-level refining materials, with the help of the spirit of the ancestral stone, I, Master Diao, can upgrade it into a treasure of pure essence."

The little mink raised his chin, looking quite pleased with himself.

"Forget it. This medicine cauldron is originally used for refining pills, and I have no interest in fighting with a cauldron-shaped magic weapon. I will be satisfied if you can help me improve the performance of this medicine cauldron."

Xiao Ling shook his head slightly and politely declined Xiao Diao's suggestion.

"Master Xiao Ling, please start. I hope you can live up to everyone's expectations."

Tang Zhen said seriously again, waving his sleeves at the same time, and groups of medicinal herbs flowed out of his ring like water, circling above the stone platform. At a glance, there were at least hundreds of kinds of these medicinal herbs.

As the medicinal materials appeared, a strong medicinal fragrance filled the air. Refining this Fire Bodhisattva Pill actually requires so many medicinal materials. It is really worthy of being a seventh-grade high-level pill. It seems that this refining is a big project.

"Master Tang, don't worry. Miss Tang Huo'er and I have met several times before. I will naturally do my best this time."

As soon as Xiao Ling finished speaking, he glanced at Tang Huo'er, who was staring at him intently. Feeling Xiao Ling's gaze, Tang Huo'er felt a little embarrassed and quickly looked away.

Xiao Ling smiled slightly, without thinking any more, he jumped up and landed lightly on the stone platform.

Before he finished speaking, a powerful soul force burst out from his brows, carefully scanning every detail of the Mountain Melting Cauldron, thoroughly exploring it from the inside out.

Xiao Ling first quickly understood the unique structure and performance of this medicine cauldron, and prepared for the subsequent refining.

Then, a dark brown flame suddenly spurted out from Xiao Ling's palm, igniting the fiery red mountain-melting cauldron. The flames rolled and jumped inside the cauldron, and soon, it vaguely formed the shape of a giant turtle with a hideous face, which looked quite majestic.

“Hiss~ This power is too terrifying, could it be the legendary strange fire!”

"It looks like a giant turtle, with sharp fire spikes all over its body. It has a ferocious mouth, teeth like blades, and strange brown flames all over its mouth. This must be the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire, which ranks 13th on the Strange Fire List."

"I've heard before that Master Xiao Ling subdued a strange fire. Today I saw it with my own eyes. It is indeed the well-deserved Turtle Spirit Earth Fire. Master Xiao Ling is so young, but his alchemy skills are so amazing. With the blessing of the strange fire, his future achievements will definitely be limitless."
