Chapter 2593: Earth's Core Fire

stinguishable in any way.Two men in black pulled off their clothes and put on the robes of the two disciples from Tai Xu Palace. They casually took off storage rings and wore them on their own hands.T...Yes, yes, yes. I'll arrange it right away.

Lu Youqing said urgently, "In the next round of the competition, I'll directly replace his furnace tripod with a defective one."

I made that kid fire the furnace, he's sure to lose.

"This method can work, but it's not enough."

Lu Chaoyang's face was gloomy, he gritted his teeth and said, "This is already the third level. No matter what, we can't let that kid win anymore, so we must be fully prepared."

"This..."

Lu Youqin showed a troubled expression. He was best at flattery and could think of replacing the furnace tripod as his limit, unable to come up with any other solutions at all.

"Here, take this and put it in his quenching water later."

Lu Chaoyang reached out and handed over a small bottle filled with transparent medicinal powder.

"Master, what is this thing"

Lu Youqin received it and asked curiously.

Lu Chao yang said: "This is a very special kind of poison, colorless and odorless. To be precise, it has no toxicity normally."

Once it comes into contact with high temperatures, it will immediately release toxic smoke, causing people to become mentally sluggish and physically weak.

"What a brilliant plan, Master!"

Lu Youqin immediately gave a thumbs-up, "When that Ye kid was quenching the metal, this poison gas mixed with the water vapor. He didn't notice anything at all."

I got addicted to it unknowingly. Then, I would definitely not be able to continue refining tools afterward. It's really a good idea.

"This thing cost me a fortune, I can't believe I used it on him."

Lu Chaoyang thought for a moment, "That's not enough, you also put this in his refining materials."

After he finished speaking, he focused his mind and a stone larger than a basketball appeared in the room.

Lu Youqin looked: "Master, isn't this quartz This thing was given to each person in the third round competition. What use do we have for it"

"You don't know what you're talking about, this isn't just ordinary chalcedony, this is volcanic chalcedony."

There is no visible difference between the two, but its melting point is a hundred times higher than that of ordinary chalcedony.

To put it simply, without the presence of heterogenous fire, ordinary true fire wouldn't be able to refine it, let alone use it for forging.

"That impressive"

Lu Youqin excitedly said, "The leader is brilliant! That Ye fellow, even if he were a god, would surely lose this time."

With everything arranged, Lu Chaoyang's expression relaxed considerably, a hint of satisfaction playing on his lips.

"Go, and do as we have arranged!"

"Yes!"

Lu Youqin hurriedly gathered the bottle of medicinal powder and the volcanic quartz crystal on the ground, then dashed out.

Lu Zhaoyang looked in Ye Bufan's direction with a cold smile: "Boy, this is the Lu family's territory. How dare you run wild here!"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the second round of the competition finally came to an end, leaving only fifty out of the original thousand alchemists.

After a brief rest, the third round of the competition began. This time, it was a real test: forging spirit swords.

The competition location is on the third floor of the Refining Tower, and all kinds of facilities have been set up at this moment.

Ye Bufan arrived at his designated spot according to the license plate. In front of him was a massive furnace and other relevant refining equipment, along with a pile of iron ore.

On the other side, set up another testing area to test the quality of the sword that has been finally refined.

His gaze swept over the cauldron, the bucket, and the ore in turn, before a sneer of disdain played upon his face.

With his current skills, he could naturally see through the other party's tricks, but these things were of no use to him whatsoever. Instead, they would become a bonus for him to reach the pinnacle of the Kunlun Artifact God.

After consecutively winning two first places, Ye Bufan has now completely become the focus of everyone present, crushing all other existences.

Even the once-powerful head of the Lu family, Lu Chaoyang, is now merely a supporting character.

After taking the stage, all eyes were on him, eager to see if the young man could deliver another dazzling performance.

As the competition began, everyone got to work.

The competition is limited to two hours, but for an alchemist, two hours is really tight to refine a magic weapon.

Ye Bufan stood before the furnace, extending a hand and summoning a stone to rest in his palm. It was a piece of quartz.

Lu Youqin had been secretly watching this side all along. Seeing him get this stone into his hands, he immediately sneered.

This is the already-replaced obsidian of volcanic origin, its melting point is frighteningly high, no ordinary fire can hope to refine it.

Ye Bufan didn't seem to notice anything amiss. He threw the volcanic quartz into the furnace, and with a flick of his hand, ten more stones fell in as well.

A burst of flame then shot out and landed on the hearth, causing the temperature to rise rapidly.

Those around him stared intently at his furnace, only to be astonished when all other iron ore melted swiftly, impurities purged, save for that piece of quartz which remained utterly unchanged.

Do not say that it was melted and refined; there wasn't even a trace of softening.

As a ninth-rank alchemist, Wen Ding immediately saw something amiss and his expression changed.

“This…this isn't quartz crystal at all, it's volcanic quartz!”

Rude Ren laughed, "Hahaha, Elder Wen, I guess you misread it. There's no difference between this volcanic quartz and true quartz. We couldn't possibly tell from this distance."

Wen Ding said: "Elder Lu, what you say is wrong. The facts are right here."

"All the other iron ore had melted, but this one remained unchanged. Is there any other explanation for the rhyolite besides volcanic origin"

Of course, it's just that his fire isn't good.

"Rude Ren pointed towards Lu Chao Yang, "Look at the flame of our family head, if he could have this kind of flame, I'm afraid that stone would have melted long ago. If you can't do it, don't blame others!"

His words weren't spoken quietly, and everyone else heard him clearly. They all involuntarily turned their attention to Lu Chaoyang.

I see he is now manipulating a mass of ochre flames, which are burning fiercely on the hearth before him.

Although he was currently on the alchemy tower, everyone around could still feel the power emanating from that raging flame. It was incredibly ferocious.

Under the burning flames, the iron ore in the furnace quickly softened and eventually melted into molten iron.

Wen Ding's eyebrows shot up. He was well-traveled and knowledgeable, immediately recognizing the type of flame it was, and let out a surprised exclamation.

"This is the Earth's core!"

I had heard that the Lu family possessed another kind of flame besides Lu Zhaozong's Skyfire, namely Earthfire.

Although this kind of flame is not as powerful as alien fire, it is still very formidable, and is known as the first fire under alien fire.

I didn't expect the Earthfire to end up in Lu Chao Yang's hands, and he even brought it out today to participate in the Refining Competition.

Seeing everyone's astonished reactions, Rudeen wore a look of extreme satisfaction on his face.

"This is the Earth Heart Fire, Elder Wen was right, if that young man has the Earth Heart Fire..."

His words stopped halfway, and then he froze there as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes fixed straight on Ye Bufan's furnace. behind its back, its head tilted upwards as it looked at the sky filled with lightning."Do you think this formation of yours can stand against me"Ye Bufan said, "Give it a try, who knows""Well then,...
