Chapter 794: Gu Yaoyi fails to refine

Just then, suddenly, a sound attracted everyone’s attention.

“Chi!” (T/N: Here, “Chi” is the sound made when the refining failed”)

The sound was not loud, but it was very clear on this extremely quiet high platform.

Ye Ruyu’s face was ugly, and he did not expect that he had just burned the sh.e.l.l of the black rockwood. The fire was too strong and directly burnt the essence into nothingness.

Then noticing that Liu Qinyue and others were still refining without any problems, and Ye Ruyu’s face became even more ugly.

He has always been very confident in his alchemy. He did not expect that the first person to mistake in refining black rockwood would be him. He naturally felt that his face was dull.

Gu Yaoyi sighed after seeing Ye Ruyu’s failure, but due to this short-lived distraction, a familiar sound came out.

“Chi!”

As this sound came out, a scorching smell quietly spread out, and Gu Yaoyi’s face became difficult to look.

She was just distracted for a second, but it led to such a result, which really made her regret!

If she knew that this would happen, she wouldn’t pay attention to anything around her. It was just that regretting it now was of no use.

When Ye Ruyu, who had an unusually low mood, saw that Gu Yaoyi had the same situation as him, he was slightly relieved. At least, it was not only him who failed.

After a brief pause, Ye Ruyu immediately picked up the second black rockwood and put it into the Pill furnace.

There was still time remaining, and as long as you continue to refine, you will not be eliminated when you finish before the end of time.

Gu Yaoyi’s gaze could not help but fall on Baili Hongzhuang. According to reason, the time that Baili Hongzhuang persisted should not be more than her. She has already failed, but Baili Hongzhuang was still persisting.

However, until now, there was no sound of failing from Baili Hongzhuang’s Pill furnace… Could it be that Baili Hongzhuang has yet to burn the outer sh.e.l.l of black rockwood?

When the idea emerged in his mind, Gu Yaoyi affirmed this answer.

This must be the case, and there couldn’t be any other reason for it.

Under the high platform, when the crowd who saw that both Gu Yaoyi and Ye Ruyu failed to refine, but Baili Hongzhuang was still refining, they were surprised in their hearts. Did they underestimate Baili Hongzhuang?

“Could it be that Baili Hongzhuang really is a talented alchemist? It is incredible that there she hasn’t failed yet.”

“Impossible, maybe she’s just lucky.”

“I heard that refining the black rockwood is a very difficult thing, and Baili Hongzhuang should not rely on luck but strength.”

This was clearly a compet.i.tion among alchemists, but the sudden partic.i.p.ation of the Baili Hongzhuang became the focus of attention.

Many people were still betting on when Baili Hongzhuang would be eliminated because they don’t know much about the other five alchemists. The only person about whom they knew more was Baili Hongzhuang.

“kacha”

Baili Hongzhuang listened to a subtle sound from inside the Pill furnace, which was the sound of the black rockwood sh.e.l.l when it cracks.

Therefore, on hearing this sound, Baili Hongzhuang converged the flame, just in case if the essence of the black rockwood is burned into nothingness. The flame instantly became smaller, and Baili Hongzhuang continued to refine the essence of black rockwood. There were still many impurities in the essence, which needed to be removed by flame.
