This time, the assessment provided a maximum of ten Spirit Medicine seeds, all of which were only peak sixth grade Spirit Medicines. Under normal circumstances, no matter how they were cultivated, they could only yield peak sixth grade Spirit Medicines in the end; this is a constant.
However, now, Qin Chen had actually cultivated the originally peak sixth grade Six-Leaf Lotus into a seventh grade Spirit Medicine. This...
Unbelievable!
If seventh grade Spirit Medicines were truly that easy to cultivate, how could there be so few high-grade Spirit Medicines in this continent? But Qin Chen had accomplished something that ordinary people wouldn't even dare to imagine. Even the Alchemy Pavilion, before proposing this question, thought that the top contestants would only be able to cultivate all ten Spirit Medicines to peak sixth grade, never considering that there would be such a result.
Ouyang Zhengqi stared at the Spirit Medicine in front of him. From its aura, form, and even its power, he could tell that this was indeed a seventh grade Spirit Medicine. In fact, if the time flow of the myriad worlds hadn't been stopped just half an hour ago, it was highly likely that it would have broken through to peak seventh grade.
But how did Qin Chen manage to elevate an originally sixth grade Spirit Medicine to seventh grade?
“How did he do it?”
“According to reason, a peak sixth grade Spirit Medicine isn't incapable of growing into seventh grade, but the process would be incredibly long, certainly not something that could be achieved in just a hundred years.”
“Could it be related to the other nine Spirit Medicines from before?”
“Eh, that’s very possible. Did you all forget the first round of the test? The nine peak sixth grade flames fused to form a brand new seventh grade flame. Then why couldn't these ten sixth grade Spirit Medicines form a seventh grade Spirit Medicine?”
“However, flames are flames. During the fusion process, their power increases, while Spirit Medicines only consume each other in competition. How could they possibly become stronger? Unless, just like the first round's flames, those Spirit Medicines weren't competing but devouring each other!”
“Is it possible for Spirit Medicines to devour each other?”
Various discussions erupted in the arena, with incredulous gazes everywhere.
Yu Sihui and the others were also looking at the Seven-Leaf Lotus in front of Qin Chen with pale faces, feeling an unprecedented sense of frustration.
Among them, the strongest, Yu Sihui, not only fully cultivated ten Spirit Medicines but also raised all ten to the peak limit of sixth grade.
Such an achievement could be said to be incredibly brilliant, but compared to Qin Chen's Seven-Leaf Lotus, it paled in comparison. No matter how many sixth grade Spirit Medicines there were, they were merely sixth grade. It was impossible to compare them to seventh grade Spirit Medicines. This was a chasm, an insurmountable chasm.
“How could it be? Why can this kid cultivate a seventh grade Spirit Medicine? This is impossible, it simply can't be done! Even in the Martial Domain, I've never heard of anyone being able to cultivate a peak sixth grade Spirit Medicine into seventh grade...”
Yu Sihui muttered, shaking her head, still in disbelief.
Master Ouyang Zhengqi was also shocked. His eyes flickered, and he murmured to himself, suddenly recalling the discussions that had circulated earlier.
Devouring? Devouring! That's right, it's devouring!
A brilliant light suddenly shot out from Ouyang Zhengqi's eyes as a flash of inspiration struck him. His gaze swiftly turned to the spiritual field in front of Qin Chen.
“Indeed, there is actually a devouring formation within this spiritual field.” Ouyang Zhengqi felt a surge of excitement. He had realized that, in addition to the gathering formation he had set up, there was another formation, but this formation was extremely subtle, which was why he hadn’t noticed it at first.
Now, upon closer inspection, he discovered that there was indeed a devouring formation.
