The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

Chapter 389: A Bold Gamble

Translator: 549690339

“Something’s not right; I didn’t make any mistakes in my alchemy process.”

David Jones looked at the messy, silver jelly-like elixir in the alchemy furnace, his brows furrowed in distress.

After some thought, he extended his finger, wiped it over the failed elixir, and carefully observed it with his Illusion-Piercing Eye.

[Inferior Energy-Increasing Liquid]: Under the nurturing of Creation Force, due to the insufficient years of the elixir, it is unable to perfectly refine the medicinal properties of mesona, resulting in a poor-quality elixir with high impurities and poison. It should not be consumed.

“Insufficient years of the elixir?”

Upon realizing this crucial point, David Jones’ furrowed brows relaxed.

Could it be that forcing the Creation Eye to activate with insufficient years of elixir and weaker medicinal properties would backfire?

Indeed, even Helen Cloud, when refining Essence-Condensing Elixirs, would use mesona with better years. If he wanted to refine a high-quality elixir, ordinary elixirs wouldn’t suffice.

Once he figured it out, David Jones immediately tapped the small screen on his pharmacy table and entered the mesona he needed for alchemy.

“Silver Vine, Soul-Eating Grass, Energy-Drawing Lotus, Gold-Thread Flower… (Note: All elixirs must be over a hundred years old.)”

After entering the relevant information, David Jones looked over at Helen Cloud beside him.

As expected, she had already placed her successfully refined Essence- Condensing Elixir on the pharmacy table. The pill, engulfed in misty purple haze, instantly attracted the attention of the audience.

“Not bad; Helen can be considered a great contestant by refining an S tier Essence-Condensing Elixir.” Lilith Hoyle casually praised, but her gaze remained on the unfazed David Jones.

Apparently, instead of being interested in the successful alchemy of Helen Cloud, she was more curious whether the talented David Jones would rise against adversity after failing in alchemy or retreat and choose to refine an easier elixir.

The Guildmaster Harvey, standing nearby, also showed a hint of approval on his face.

The Three Treasures Pill, being the most challenging Class V elixir to refine, requires a perfect performance from Helen Cloud. If it were in any previous Pharmacy Conference, she would have secured her first place. But this year, things might be different.

Thinking of this, Guildmaster Harvey looked towards Benjamin Brightbridge at the Pharmacy Square.

At that moment, the ground-shaking Arcane Force was converging around Benjamin’s blazing-red elixir furnace. The shocking aura even made people think of a bomb.

It is worth mentioning that pharmacists also take risks when refining elixirs, and the Earth Elixir is particularly prone to explosions.

In the Neolithic Period, there were only a few foolish pharmacists who died from Earth Elixir explosions, but there were far more pharmacists who had suffered serious injuries due to failed alchemy.

That’s why every alchemy furnace set up on Pharmacy Square has a protective guard, to prevent any accidents.

“Crisp!”

The next second, under Benjamin’s astonished gaze, a thin crack suddenly appeared on the surface of the elixir furnace.

“Damn it! The Earth Elixir’s reaction is too violent; this standard elixir furnace won’t last for three minutes!”

Benjamin’s pupils shrank, and he subconsciously glanced at the Flashstar Sparrow, which was spewing dazzling Star Sun Flame.

“Heaven is on my side! Even Benjamin’s elixir furnace is about to explode. Wouldn’t I be the only contender for first place in the Pharmacy Conference?” To take note of her competitors, Helen’s beautiful eyes sparkled slightly.

“Fight for it; directly refine the Beast Control Pill!”

A fierce glint flashed across Benjamin’s eyes, and he slammed his right palm onto the almost-shattered elixir furnace.

“Rumbling!”

The elixir furnace exploded, and a pitted, brownish-yellow elixir that seemed about to shatter shot into the sky.

“Flashstar Sparrow!”

“Rage!”

The body of the Flashstar Sparrow shimmered with starlight, and it suddenly transformed into a crimson streak, swallowing the brownish-yellow elixir. “Sun Fire Alchemy!”

Benjamin Brightbridge unhesitatingly seated himself in the square, and his vast Spiritual power of the Yellow Ranked Spiritual Realm suddenly erupted.

“What is he doing? Just feeding the elixir they worked so hard to refine to the Pet?”

“Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t understand, this is Beast Control Pill Condensation, a secret method of Pharmacy that only Master Alchemists can master.”

“A Master Alchemist? Isn’t Benjamin Brightbridge a Flare V Alchemist?”

“If you can’t understand, just watch. If Flare V’s Benjamin Brightbridge can successfully create a Beast Control Pill, the Pharmacy realm’s upcoming shockwave might be huge!”

As the audience seats were bustling and full of discussion, a dazzling brown light suddenly spat out from the mouth of the Flashstar Sparrow.

“The Earth Elixir is completed!”

As Benjamin Brightbridge sighed a low breath of relief, a burst of strong medicinal fragrance suddenly emitted from the Flashstar Sparrow’s body.

After the flame disappeared from the mouth of the Flashstar Sparrow, a perfectly flawless brown elixir slowly fell into Benjamin Brightbridge’s palm under the watchful eyes of the crowd.

“It seems like there is no suspense for the first place now!” Hudson Harvey’s face remained unchanged, but he was secretly delighted.

As a Grandmaster alchemist, he only needed a slight sniff to distinguish that the quality of this Earth Elixir was excellent.

It was a Class V S tier against a Class V B tier. With not much difference in the quality of the elixirs, it was natural that Benjamin Brightbridge would win.

A disciple that he personally trained defeating a disciple of Lilith Hoyle’s, this was enough to make his face shine with pride for Hudson Harvey.

“There is still one hour left in the competition, and the outcome is still uncertain.” Lilith Hoyle looked at David Jones without turning her head and said.

“Grandmaster Hoyle is right.” Hudson Harvey nodded with a smile.

David Jones finally received the medicinal materials personally delivered by the Pharmacist Guild in the Pharmacy Square.

“Sorry, because you had a requirement for the age, the collection speed of the materials was a bit slow. Please forgive us.”

“No problem, you can leave.”

Glancing at the remaining time, David Jones had no intention of haggling, only wanting to start alchemy as quickly as possible.

With a thought, Silver Vine and Energy-Drawing Lotus still covered in dew soared into the elixir furnace.

“Simply relying on a high-quality Energy-increasing Elixir will be difficult to win. It seems like I have to take a gamble, Daphne, stimulate the Destiny Flame.” David Jones gritted his teeth and ordered.

His goal of participating in the Pharmacy Conference was always the same, and that was the first place.

If he couldn’t get the first place, other rankings had no meaning for him at all.

Feeling the Trainer’s determination, Daphne’s eyes narrowed, and the painstakingly cultivated Destiny Flame spat out.

“What kind of flame is this?”

Feeling the Pharmacy Flame inside the Alchemy Furnace that seemed terrified and chilling, the Pharmacists in the square cast their gazes on David Jones.

“Damn it, my elixir.” A pharmacist looked down and cursed angrily.

When the painstakingly-refined elixirs failed in succession, who could bear such a disastrous blow!

On the other side, seeing this spectacular scene of fire submission, Hudson Harvey on the VIP seat deeply glanced at Lilith Hoyle.

“Epic Pharmacy Flame? Or Legendary Pharmacy Flame?”

It should be known that only Class VII Epic and above Pharmacy Flames possessed the power of suppressing all fires, and such a level of fire was not something that a lower-level alchemist could control.
