Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 131

…

The reaction of the people around him did not faze Xin Ja from his concentration while watching the slow combination of the pills inside the furnace. His no-reaction to the words of the people around him made everyone shift their gaze at the pill furnace.

At this time, Master Yo has finished his concoction and gasping sounds could be heard from the crowd. Those master alchemists watching him also showed a surprised expression on their faces along with disbelief.

The reason for their disbelief is that they just noticed that Master Yo actually concocted a pill and a potion.

They were all astonished that he created two products but the contest only needs one.

No matter what, the judges will only rate the pill and not the potion.

"Hahaha… That is a tier 6 pill and it looks ugly…" his opponent shouted in derision.

He became a bit apprehensive when he knew that Master Yo is an opponent because the guy is the top alchemist and is hard to beat.

But who would have known that the fellow would fall to such low?

"I think your ranking has gone to your brain and broke it… What a foolish decision to underestimate me…" the guy smirked while looking at Master Yo with contempt in his eyes.

Master Yo at this time showed a faint smile on his face while looking at the man like he is looking at someone who is really foolish.

He did not say anything and just places the potion on the table and the pill he placed above the cover of the potion. This made everyone confused as to why he did such a thing.

At this time, Xin Ja who is still working hard finally showed a slight smile on his face as he found something strange in his concocting process.

When Xin Ja concoct pills, especially the higher level ones, he did not need to use pill furnaces or cauldron just to refine or concoct. Because all he needs to do is to touch the ingredients and he could already identify and extract the needed material from the herbs and then combine them.

The process is pretty simple and efficient than using flames.

However, now that he learned how to use flames in refining and concocting, he has discovered something new in concocting pills.

By using a flame, he could actually add attributes to the concoction which is not possible while using the crafting method he learned from Shin Jiao.

The flame could add strange and mysterious things in crafting which is like upgrading an item and adding attributes and additional power to it.

And right now, this is what he is seeing in the pill he is concocting. The tier 7 pill is being exposed to the fire element which would strengthen and attract other strands of element into the furnace.

It was a very enjoyable scene that made Xin Ja feel delighted and excited at the same time.

He became oblivious to the eyes of the people around him.

"If I try to apply this to artifact crafting, I might be able to upgrade and add the mysterious ability to those artifacts…, right?" he thought for a while and then frowns.

He suddenly tilted the furnace and then turns off the flame below it. As he did, the furnace slowly cooled down and the pill inside began to form in a weird way.

In his mind he is expecting something to happen in the pill and that he could create something new out of the process.

This is only Xin Ja's theory, but he wanted to make sure that his theory was correct.

As soon as he finished forming the pill, he did not take it out as he scanned the pill inside with his Absolute Sense. He has been observing it for a while now and knew that his theories were correct.

But before he could do anything, the judge suddenly stood between him and his opponent.

"Time is up! It's time for you to show us your creations!" the judge looks at Xin Ja with a serious glare.

Xin Ja was taken aback and showed confusion then he realized that he was too engrossed in his experimentation that he has not noticed the time.

He was about to take the pill when the judge sneered.

"Master Alchemist Xin… failed…" he said with a loud voice.

The whole stadium became silent as the judge haughtily walked away.

This time, Xin Ja frowned and looks at the judge.

"Why did you fail me?" he suddenly asked.

This time… the one answering is his opponent.

"Why would he not when you have failed your concoction?" the guy sneered while shaking his head.

"You should accept your defeat young man…" the judge said with an angry glare.

Xin Ja suddenly became annoyed as he suddenly slaps his alchemy furnace.

He has no patience to play with them at this time and scheme. He would just show them what he has created.

As soon as the furnace was about to open, the judge suddenly appears in front of Xin Ja and bore down his mental pressure on him.

His left hand held the furnace's lid and stops the pill from coming out.

Xin Ja was taken aback as he did not expect the judge to do such a thing. He immediately knew that the man is biased against him.

He grits his teeth and glare at the judge in front of him.

"You're shameless…" he said in a loud voice.

The judge was about to hit Xin Ja and accuse him of disrespecting the judge.

According to the contest rule, the judge has the right to punish the contestants who disregarded the rules of the tournament.

And he as a judge wanted to exercise his authority against a mere ant.

If he could deal with Xin Ja, then the clan would surely give him more resources. And this is what he wanted to do. He was instructed by the clan to make it hard for the young man so that they can have a chance to steal the limelight, plus the Lei Clan would be able to owe them a favor.

And so he wanted to deal with Xin Ja as quickly as possible before any of the elders could react.

As soon as he sent a blow using his strength and Ki as a Ki-Champion, he knew that the guy would either die or become invalid.

He did not want to kill the guy as the Lei Clan has plans for him.

Swoosh!!!

However, he was surprised to only hit thin air.

p Then he looks behind him and Xin Ja looks at him with a grin on his face.

His eyes landed on the furnace which is already open.

He quickly looks at the inside and saw nothing which made the man heave a sigh of relief.

No matter what, he knew that the guy failed. Plus, what he did when he was holding the lid of the furnace is insert his Ki to destroy any trace of pill inside of it.

So when he saw that there are only black wastes inside the furnace, he showed a calm smile on his face as he knew that his place actually worked.

But what he heard next made him freeze on the spot.

"Are you looking for his?" Xin Ja suddenly showed two small black pills in his hand.

The crowd at this time is already confused as they did not know what is actually happening.

From their perspective, they can see that the judge is actually attacking the contestant which is a bit strange.

But when they saw the black object in the hand of Xin Ja, they all frowned.

The elders showed dismay in their expression as they did not expect that the two people who should be 1st and 2nd would actually fail in this round.

Although they still have a chance, the 1st and 2nd place are already out of their grasp.

The rest of the noble clans and families suddenly heave a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

One created an unknown creation of a pill and a potion which they are expecting to be a failure, and the other one created a burnt pill.

So how could everyone not feel complicated emotions in their hearts?

At this time, the elders of the alchemist associations look at the judge who was attacking Xin Ja.

"Send a pill here!" one of the elders commanded.

Xin Ja walked to the stage and then submitted his pill after putting it in a bottle.

The contest has already ended and the elders are now going to judge the concocted pills before them.

If Xin Ja and Master Yo still win this, then they would be advancing to the top 4, but if they lose then they would continue with the battle until the top 4 are chosen.

At this time, there are already pairs that were judged on who the winner is and those that were already eliminated for losing twice.

When an elder looks at the concoction of Master Yo, he frowned and then showed a contemplating expression.

Then another elder walked by his side and also looks at the pill in contemplation.

Now that they are near the concocted pill and potion, they could already feel that something profound is actually happening, but they could not point it out.

"Mysterious…" the elder muttered in bafflement.
