Shen Xiang took out the thousand-year-old blood ginseng and said, "This is a thousand-year-old blood ginseng."

Even though everyone had heard about Shen Xiang having the thousand-year-old blood ginseng before, they were still surprised when they saw it with their own eyes. After all, this was a rare and famous medicine.

“Of course, with this bet, am I not looking down on medicinal families” Shen Xiang’s other hand appeared again with half of a black ginseng.

This hell ginseng was half eaten by Bai Yoyo and Su Meiyao, but the remaining half was still very precious.

Several old people jumped onto the stage without any hesitation, Shen Tianhu and several heads of the Shen Family also jumped up. After all, this was rumored to be hell ginseng!

The entire square became deathly silent. Everyone saw the grayish hell ginseng, but they didn’t believe it yet. They all knew that those old people who could tell the quality of medicinal materials jumped up to verify them. Even Elder Medicine Families also went up on stage to see the hell ginseng.

“Correct, this is hell ginseng!” Medicine Pavilion Master exclaimed in surprise. There was a sense of jealousy and envy in his voice, as he looked at Shen Xiang’s half black ginseng with passionate old eyes.

After being verified, there was a sudden outcry in the square. Everyone talked and discussed among themselves. Shen Xiang actually took half hell ginseng and thousand-year-old blood ginseng as bets, which was a very large bet that few families could bear.

“What’s your bet” Shen Xiang looked at Medicine Tianhua and an old man next to him.

Medicine Tianhua and the elder’s faces were not good-looking. Any alchemist knew what hell ginseng meant, that was a material grade medicinal product, very few spiritual-grade medicinal products were seen, let alone the divine-grade ones. So they all knew its value.

“A thousand-year-old beast pill, thousand-patterned fruit! What do you think” the elder replied.

A beast pill was a pill formed from the essence of beasts that lived for thousands of years. This beast pill greatly helped in alchemy, while the thousand-patterned fruit was also a divine-grade medicinal product. It’s said that only once in thousands of years does it bear fruit, and the fruit has thousand patterns on its surface. It’s the main ingredient to create foundation pills.

The Medicine Family’s bet was equally amazing, surprising everyone else again. If they won, it would be definitely a huge profit!

“Good, let’s settle on that!” Shen Xiang said.

“Then I’ll explain the rules. The main competition is divided into alchemy, whoever can make the best pill in the fastest time wins. The quality of pills is judged by everyone,” said Medicine Family’s elder.

Shen Xiang had no objections, Shen Tianhu patted his shoulder as encouragement. Shen Xiang and Medicine Tianhua brought their pill furnaces out for the elders to check, in order to prevent cheating.

After checking everything was fine, all the others left that platform and announced the competition had started.

Shen Xiang quickly put a package of medicinal materials into the pill furnace. Medicine Tianhua didn’t see Shen Xiang’s medicinal materials clearly and was somewhat unhappy because he couldn’t know what pill Shen Xiang was making.

Medicine Tianhua still had the confidence of winning because he was part of Medicine Family, and his materials were superior. In his opinion, among the same level pills, no one could compare to him in terms of skill.

Looking at Medicine Tianhua’s shiny pill furnace, Shen Xiang felt envious in his heart. His crude pill furnace was far behind him. Many people saw Shen Xiang’s pill furnace and believed that he had lost.

“Using this pill furnace to make pills is too funny! It’s even inferior to the pot used in my family for cooking soup!” A person laughed loudly, and others joined him.

Only people who knew a bit about alchemy knew that alchemy wasn’t judged by pill furnaces but the skill of those who made pills. If an alchemist master, he could successfully make pill without using pill furnaces.

Shen Xiang was making a cleanse-pills, he saw Medicine Tianhua’s spirit medicinal material he put into the pill furnace. Judging from those materials, Medicine Tianhua was making a medicinal called Spirit Essence Pill, which is kind of helpful during cultivation. It could be considered as the most expensive spirit grade low-grade pills among all that, and it was also very difficult to make. In many alchemy competitions, many people made this kind of pill, which was also a test for an alchemist’s control of medicinal products.

This pill was something Shen Xiang had made before, although the cost was relatively high, just more affordable than cleanse-pills. So Shen Xiang didn’t make too many of them.

The waiting for the result was very boring and tedious, as everyone also talked together while watching the two young alchemists on stage.

Shen Xiang didn’t chase after speed to make the cleanse-pills smoothly, so he carefully made them.

After half an hour, Shen Xiang let all the medicinal materials turn into powder. And the pill furnace was filled with colorful “medicine spirit”. Now, he had to blend different kinds of medicine spirits together first, then let the medicine spirit and medicinal powder mix. This process was the most stressful as it could easily blow up the pill furnace.

Two hours had passed in a blink, Shen Xiang was solemn and sweating. Medicine Tianhua was very relaxed and often looked at Shen Xiang, feeling pleased as he saw how Shen Xiang was in his state. He could tell that Shen Xiang must be at the most critical part and likely made a mistake.風消失了，顯然邪神在保護這些魔怪。這批魔怪都是後麵出現的，比之前沈翔遇到都強大一些，對於邪神來說也是寶貝，但一下子就有十多萬倒下，這令他憤怒無比。現在隻有沈翔還站在那裡，雖然他變成魔怪的樣子，但一想就知道肯定是他乾的，那邪神非常明白，眼前這魔怪根本不是他造出來的那種。“混蛋，弄死我那麼多寶貝，去死吧！”那邪神幾乎發狂，聲音帶著無比的怨恨。在那瞬間，沈翔被一股非常可怕邪惡的力量鎖定。“死的是你！”誅...
