Si Qi saw what the headmaster meant, and laughed even more happily. He said, "In that case, I will refine 100 furnaces of elixirs at once!"
He will be killed!
The headmaster was extremely excited, and wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and his expression looked a little weird.
Refine, refine! I will refine as many materials as you want!
100 furnaces, that's 100 furnaces of top-grade elixirs! Whoever doesn't let me refine will be killed by him!!
The elder looked at Si Qi as if he was a madman, and said impatiently, "How can I have so much time to bother you? One furnace is enough."
Chu Feng would not give him more, and he didn't dare to ask for it. Now it was just right.
The headmaster almost jumped out to hit him, but Si Qi glared and disagreed: "Whenever it's time, I'll open a hundred furnaces at once. A hundred furnaces of top-grade elixirs, you can calculate how much 'reward' you have to give me?"
The disciples below laughed secretly.
A hundred furnaces in one breath? And at the same time? You
really don't even need to draft your boast.
Their master doesn't dare to say that he can deal with ten furnaces of elixirs at the same time, let alone you, a little new disciple.
No wonder the rumors described this young man so badly before, but now it seems that he is not exaggerated, but rather beautified. In fact, he is even more evil and stupid than the rumors say.
The Immortal Venerable was not willing to waste time, but the Sect Master was "crazy" and said: "Sure, sure, no problem! A hundred furnaces is a hundred furnaces!"
More is welcome!!
The people around looked at the Sect Master with strange eyes. Because of the seniority, the disciples did not dare to be too obvious. After taking a subconscious look, they lowered their heads and dared to complain in their hearts.
Elder Zhou frowned and said angrily, "This is ridiculous! This is a waste of materials! Let alone a hundred furnaces, he can't even make anything good with one furnace! What's more, he has to refine so much at one time. What if he fails? He won't even have the chance to learn from experience and start over. Those are all precious herbs!"
After saying that, he looked at Chu Xun and said in a sinister tone, "Our sect has never treated anyone badly. There's no need to rush to please us, right? Don't be too biased!"
The disciples below were also quite unwilling to hear this. Why did they have to get herbs in a certain amount when they wanted to refine pills on weekdays? Before starting a furnace of pills, they had to do their homework and preparations and refine them in the best mental state.
And some people, just because they have a good master, give him all the good things and agree to all his unreasonable and outrageous requests?
If it weren't for the fact that the head of the sect had to stand neutral and give some face to his fellow disciples, the head of the sect would have scolded him by now.
Si Qi has said that he is willing to refine a hundred furnaces of top-grade elixirs, and you dare to stop it? You are dreaming! !
He said in a cold and hard tone: "Our sect is not so poor that we can't even afford the materials for 100 furnaces of elixirs! How much materials do I allocate to your Danfeng every month? Is it three or four times this? But what have you provided to the sect? Only seven or eight hundred ordinary elixirs, and the sect needs to give out more medicinal materials in exchange before they are willing to give them out. Why, it's okay to give them to you, but not to others? These medicinal materials don't have your Danfeng's name written on them, so they must be kept for you to use!"
The disciples below were indignant, thinking that if they were not given those medicinal materials to make elixirs, what else could they do with them? They were actually accused by the headmaster of being worse than a new disciple, and they wanted to give their medicinal materials to others to waste...
The headmaster waved his hand and said firmly that in this competition, Si Qi would be allowed to refine 100 furnaces in one go. As for the young disciple of Elder Zhou, one furnace is enough.
Elder Zhou was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. He thought that since the headmaster had said this, the medicinal materials must be provided by the headmaster and his people. Danfeng would not give anything away.
He said without giving an inch: "Then how do we calculate the result of this competition? We can't just say that he refined a hundred furnaces, and two of them were successful, which means the amount is more than the amount in my disciple's furnace, so he wins, right?"
The sect leader thought about it and was about to find a reasonable plan, but Si Qi said directly: "This is not simple. Look at the quantity and the quality! No matter how many furnaces I refined, just calculate the average! The total number of finished products, minus one hundred is the number of pills I refined in one furnace, not to mention the quality, each one is a top-grade pill. Is there any need to compete?"
Upon hearing this, the disciples below couldn't help laughing out loud. They covered their mouths and laughed at their fellow apprentices beside them, saying: "Then I'm afraid he won't get a single pill from the furnace." "And
it's a top-grade pill, hahahaha..."
"You said it as if it were real. It made me laugh to death."
The Sect Leader sent someone to the sect's storehouse to fetch herbs, and instructed, "The more the better. Don't leave any for me!" The disciple was stunned and left hesitantly.
Then Si Qi said to Elder Zhou: "How capable are you? You don't have many top-grade elixirs left, do you? If you lose and have nothing to give me, you will lose all your face."
Elder Zhou said unhappily: "Why, you said you would refine as much as you wanted, then if you refined 10,000 furnaces and one top-grade elixir appeared, I would really have to compensate you with ten?"
Si Qi: "Do you think it's unfair for me to refine 100 furnaces? Okay, then, among my 100 furnaces, if the finished product of one furnace is not as good as your disciple's, I will compensate you with three magic weapons, as many as you have!"
Elder Zhou was delighted when he heard this. He immediately said to Chu Feng: "Chu Xianzun, this is what your disciple said in person! What do you think!"
Chu Feng was calm and even touched the back of Si Qi's head, pretending to comfort him. He said expressionlessly: "Of course it is as my disciple said, I will pay as much as I have."
Then, looking at Si Qi's money-obsessed look, who was so excited that he was about to rub his hands, he raised his eyes, looked coldly at Elder Zhou's eyes, and said to him: "You also don't break your promise."
Elder Zhou showed an excited look on his face, and said without thinking: "Of course! I have never regretted what I said!"
Si Qi: "Then take the Heart Demon Oath!"
Elder Zhou's expression became very ugly. The Heart Demon Oath is still very taboo for cultivators. If it cannot be achieved, at best, the inner demon will entangle the body and the magic power will be stagnant, and at worst, the person will die on the spot.
Chu Xun looked at him expressionlessly, and Elder Zhou's face changed several times. He really felt that with Si Qi's ability, it was impossible to refine a hundred furnaces of elixirs at the same time, and to refine top-grade elixirs!
On the contrary, he could get hundreds of top-grade magic weapons in one breath, so no matter how you think about it, this risk is worth taking.
So he gritted his teeth and said, "Of course!"
After that, he clasped his thumb and little finger together in the palm of his hand, and the other three fingers pointed to the sky, and swore an inner demon oath.
"If Si Qi refines a top-grade elixir on the spot, I will give him ten times the same grade of elixir."
"If you break your promise, the demon in your heart will haunt you until you die!"
Si Qi smiled contentedly after hearing this. His two pointed little fangs were exposed, and he covered his mouth with his eyes full of bright stars.
He said to Chu Xun, "Master, when I get the things, I will give them all to you to make you happy!"
Chu Xun touched Si Qi's head again, and there seemed to be a faint smile in his eyes.
"No need, it's your reward, just accept it."
The disciples felt sour when they saw the harmonious relationship between the master and the disciple: Oh, he really knows how to borrow flowers to pay for his kindness. Obviously, this guy didn't give anything, and he didn't have to pay for it, but he coaxed the master around with just a few words, and said that all the benefits would be given to the master! In fact, he knew that he couldn't do it, so he just drew a big cake to fool people!
Over there, the disciple who followed the master's order to go to the warehouse to get the medicinal materials attracted the attention of many disciples and elders outside because he took out so many precious spiritual plants in one breath, as well as the 100 large cauldrons of the alchemy furnace.
Because the master didn't say to keep it secret, this disciple was speechless and crazy and complained to the people around him, and made the conversation between the master Qi and Elder Zhou in the hall vivid and full of complaints.
The people around were all angry:
"Si Qi is too arrogant."
"So many medicinal herbs, are they all going to be wasted on that guy? Eh... think about how much effort I put in to get a plant of peony root grass from the Disciple Workshop. Now, look, hundreds of peony root grasses are just out there!" "
It's far more than that. Haven't you seen how many elixirs Si Qi has consumed in these days! These hundreds of peony root grasses are nothing at all!"
"What is the master thinking?"
"Just because Si Qi is the only disciple of Chu Xianzun? He shouldn't go to such lengths..."
"Come on, let's go and see!"
Seeing many elders in the sect flying towards Danfeng with unhappy faces, the disciples hurriedly followed with excitement, wanting to see how the elders confronted Chu Xianzun and the headmaster, and to see how Si Qi, who was "so highly expected", would be embarrassed!
A group of people rushed into Danfeng together in a lively and noisy manner, and all the Xianzun looked at Si Qi with obvious disgust. After a quick salute to Chu Xun, he walked in front of the headmaster and talked to him.
The headmaster didn't expect that "a small test" would actually shock so many people in the entire sect. Facing the questions of the elders, his expression was somewhat embarrassed.
The competition hasn't started yet, and he can't say in front of Elder Zhou how awesome Si Qi is.
Not to mention that words are not enough, will everyone be willing to believe it?
What if Elder Zhou is too cautious and gives up the competition? Wouldn’t this lesson be in vain? Maybe Si Qi is too lazy to refine the elixir to prove himself.
He said vaguely: "It's just some materials, why are you so nervous."
The elders said angrily: "Yes, so many materials are nothing, what about the future? What if that guy thinks that he is not good at cultivation and refining elixirs, and runs to draw talismans and refine weapons? Let him mess it up like this?"
The head of the sect subconsciously said: "Isn't that a good thing?"
If Si Qi really has this talent and is an all-round genius, wouldn't it be a great blessing for the sect!
Elders: ? ? ? ?
What did you say?
Sect Master, you are afraid that you have been seized, right? !
The Sect Master pretended to be indifferent and shouted: "Okay, stop making a fuss! It's just a competition, just watch quietly! If you don't want to watch, just leave!"
The elders looked unwilling, and looked at each other angrily with their companions for a few times, and finally withdrew with frowns.
They stood on all four sides of the hall, watching the Danfeng disciples and Si Qi standing opposite each other inside.
The young disciple was surrounded by so many people and was repeatedly warned (threatened) by the master, so he was a little nervous at the moment.
As a powerful cultivator, he took a few deep breaths to make his trembling fingers stop shaking, took out the Dan furnace and medicinal materials from the storage bag, and prepared in an orderly manner.
His movements were very standard, and the process was also very smooth. It was obvious that
he was an expert who had been immersed in the art of alchemy for many years and had gained some experience. Even those who did not know much about the art would subconsciously feel that the other party must be a very reliable alchemist and was very confident in what he was doing at the moment.
Elder Zhou stood aside and watched, and his face relaxed a little, and he nodded with satisfaction.
Huiling Pill is not a complicated pill. As long as the monks who know a little about alchemy will basically learn this pill recipe, because it is really indispensable.
It is like a plate of stir-fried green vegetables. Michelin chefs and roadside restaurant chefs use the same ingredients to stir-fry, and the taste will not change much. It is even possible that the restaurant chef is more skilled than the Michelin chef because he stir-fries this dish so often.
Although Elder Zhou is a very good master of alchemy, the recipe of Huiling Pill is not complicated. Even if a master comes to refine it, at most he can refine it a little better than the younger generation, and the control of the heat and strength is more perfect. No matter how much difference there is, there will not be much.
Unless they compare more advanced techniques, then the difference in level can be truly revealed.
Therefore, Elder Zhou is still very relieved to leave this competition to the young disciple.
After watching the disciples, Elder Zhou had the energy to pay attention to Si Qi's movements.
He almost laughed at this.
What is that guy doing?
Hundreds of disciples and elders around were all stunned to see Si Qi pick the herbs into several parts. Some left the leaves, some ground the roots into powder, and some even directly extracted the juice and threw away the rest.
Is this making pills or cooking? Does he really want to compete?!
The elders watching were furious. They pointed at Si Qi and said, "I'm going to stop him. I can't let him continue to destroy things." But they were stopped by the head of the sect. Then they met Chu Xun's eyes that were cold and emotionless.
"…………"
The elders pursed their lips in frustration, their faces squeezed together, and they retreated unwillingly.
"Too much."
The elder deliberately did not lower his voice, and said to his fellow elder beside him: "Master gave him all the good things in the past, and it's okay to be partial to him. Who made him have such a good fate? We have to grit our teeth and endure the grievance. But what is his disciple? Why should we be so accommodating to him? Are our disciples not disciples? All these things must be given to the master and disciple? Is this Lingxiao Sect, or is it Chu Xun's one-man show!" The sect
leader turned his gaze and glared at him with a terrifying look, and said angrily: "Shut up!"
"..." The elders turned their heads away angrily. After all, they did not dare to quarrel with the sect leader, especially Chu Xun.
The disciples below heard the conversation of the elders and whispered:
"I don't know much about alchemy, so did Si Qi do something wrong?"
"Not only did he do something wrong, he was extremely wrong!"
"You will know if you compare him with the junior brother on the opposite side, he is following the standard procedure."
"How can you split the medicinal materials and only take part of them, or even squeeze them into juice... Oh, I feel so sad just watching it."
Some disciples of Danfeng felt more and more uncomfortable, and said angrily: "This time the recipe of the elixir clearly states that these materials are needed. Since ancient times, so many alchemy masters have conducted meticulous research to come up with such an optimal formula. But look, that guy actually threw away the Lingyuan Fruit and only took two veins from such a large Huangxiao Leaf as materials. Oh, I feel so sad watching it, it really makes me angry..."
"I had held out a glimmer of hope, thinking that since he was the disciple of Immortal Master Chu Xun, he would definitely not be as bad as the outside world said. He spoke so confidently just now, and I thought he might be really powerful... Now seeing him acting so recklessly, eh, it turns out that miracles are not that easy to happen."
"Who does he think he is? He just changed the pill recipe that has been passed down for thousands of years, and he is so reckless."
"So many materials, all wasted."
"Do you really have to refine it a hundred times in one breath? Oh, if we take this out to refine it for us, how many Soul-Restoring Pills can we get..."
Chu Xun listened to the whispers of people around him, and his expressionless look was really scary.
The headmaster was afraid that Chu Feng would punish those disciples in anger, so he quickly comforted them: "They will know soon, just wait a little longer..."
Chu Feng said coldly: "Know? I'm afraid they won't change in their lifetime."
The headmaster was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
Chu Feng had a cold face and was not interested in explaining anything.
Prejudice has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts. Even if Si Qi refined countless pills in front of everyone this time and made them drop their jaws, if Si Qi did something unbelievable next time, those people might jump out and say "This is impossible" or "I don't believe you can do it."
It was like in the past, no matter how Chu Feng tried to let people see his efforts through his fate, no one would believe that all Chu Feng did was not due to his good fortune, but his own efforts.
"You said you worked hard, but who in this world of cultivation doesn't work hard? Why did you succeed just by working hard? It's because you have a good fate!"
Chu Feng never complained about why he had a good fate. This was a good thing, no doubt about it.
But he was destined to be angry at the prejudice of others.
As a person born with a very strong fate, Chu Feng's life was different from what many people imagined, as he had been treated with special eyes by the outside world since he was sensible.
The elders valued him, even flattered him and fawned on him, treating him as a treasure that would reap more rewards in the future as long as enough benefits were invested.
He achieved achievements that others could not imagine, and others said "it should be so". If he was slightly worse than anyone else, suspicious and disapproving eyes would be cast on him immediately, as if he had done something unforgivable wrong.
People of the same age envied him, feared him, and worshipped him. Some of them dared not approach him from a distance, or approached him for various purposes. Every now and then, they would hear some sour words such as "It's just that he has a good fate and has the treasure cultivation of the head master uncle, otherwise how could he have made such rapid progress" and "If I were him, I would definitely be able to do it", which easily wiped out all his previous efforts.
As his strength grew and his fame expanded, he seemed to find it increasingly difficult to find someone who could treat him sincerely and regard Chu Xianzun as "Chu Feng".
So he became more and more indifferent and lonely day by day.
Until he met Si Qi, who had an extremely bad fate but never accepted his fate and could even create miracles again and again.
This was simply the most ideal existence in his heart, turning his wish into reality, into a life, and appearing vividly before his eyes.
Without relying on fate, Si Qi could rely on his own abilities to carve out a path that belonged to him alone.
No matter how others belittled him or ridiculed him.
He believed that he could do it.
Si Qi lived the life that Chu Feng most longed for.
Seeing Si Qi take out the spoiled herbs from the storage bag three times in a row, Chu Feng walked over, gently took the bag from Si Qi's hand, pressed his fingertips on the back of Si Qi's hand, stayed for three seconds, and said: "Teacher will help you."
Si Qi smiled, raised his face, and his eyes were bright as if there was light flowing.
He said, "Okay."
Then, Chu Feng took out several spiritual plants from the bag. The lucky ones were all the ones that automatically shed the parts that Si Qi needed and could be used directly without secondary processing.
With the help of this lucky king, Si Qi's speed in processing medicinal materials increased several times in an instant, and he finished processing 100 batches of materials in a short while.
Seeing Si Qi putting the things into the hundred furnaces, the people below were talking: "Isn't that guy just in the Qi Refining Stage? How can he have the spiritual power to ignite the spiritual fire and support so many furnaces?"
"He's not going to ask Immortal Chu for help? That's cheating."
"Everyone knows that Immortal Chu has a strong destiny. It's hard for things he has handled to fail."
"Hey, who made us not have such a good master? Even a good-for-nothing can be forcibly molded into a 'strong man'."
"Hehe, 'robber' is more like it."
Chu Xun was most annoyed by these rumors. He himself suffered from this kind of cold violence, and naturally developed a perverse personality that seemed lonely and gloomy in the eyes of others, and would inexplicably turn his face or even hurt people.
Those who were looked down upon by him were naturally talkative, and naturally became more and more unbalanced and gossipy when they were treated like this. This was also the reason why everyone who was humiliated by Chu Feng would double-down on Chu Feng's faults, because they could not admit that their gossip was heard by Chu Feng, so they would blame him first out of guilt.
Seeing Chu Feng's face getting worse and worse, Si Qi smiled and said, "What's the use of this? You can't let them not talk for the rest of their lives, right? Besides, even if you cut their tongues, they can still write with their hands and hint with their eyes, which is useless."
Chu Feng tried to use a gentle tone and said, "The master doesn't like others to make random criticisms."
He didn't mind criticisms, he was used to it.
But he would never allow others to make up stories about his apprentices.
"Then let them flatter me in the future."
Si Qi smiled, blinked his big eyes playfully, and said to him, "When I bring them great benefits, even if I am really a bad person, they will try their best to say good things about me. Isn't that how people are?"
Chu Feng was slightly stunned, and he looked puzzled.
Si Qi: "It's because you're so nice that they can say you're bad without any scruples - isn't that right?"
Chu Xun fell silent.
Si Qi smiled again, took out the spirit stones one by one, and placed them one by one under the alchemy furnace in the same quantity.
Amid the anguished and heartbroken cries of the immortal disciples around him, Si Qi ignited all the spirit stones at the same time, demonstrating what it means to really burn money.
A group of people couldn't even believe their eyes, and all said "crazy", "Is he sick!" Is
n't it just a little spirit fire? Will you die if you ignite it with your own spiritual power? Why do you have to use spirit stones as firewood?
The people who were originally angry at Si Qi's various outrageous behaviors finally rebuked him loudly when they saw this overly intuitive wasteful behavior.
"Hurry up and take out the spirit stones!"
"How many pills can you buy with these spirit stones?"
"How can there be such a person."
"Chu Xianzun really doesn't know people well!"
Si Qi sneered and ignored the group of people. He said lightly: "Okay, then don't use the pills I refine when the time comes."
He was so angry and sincere, did he use your things? He blamed others for what he couldn't get or do. He also found a righteous reason, saying that we think you are wasting!
The work has not been completed yet. What did these people see him wasting? They started to scold him angrily without proving anything.
After scolding, if he doesn't apologize in the future, he has no reason to forgive this group of people.
Si Qi turned around and said to the headmaster who could hardly suppress his excitement: "You have seen clearly who these people are talking about. Don't give them my pills later."
"Unless, let them come to me and Chu Feng, apologize respectfully, and say sorry three times."
"And give them their compensation."
"I don't want cheap things!"
A group of people looked at Si Qi with a look of lunatic.
Someone sneered: "Dream on!"
Even if they walk out of this place without pills to eat, they will never come to you for anything!
The headmaster smiled and agreed: "No problem!"
These fools, don't they know who they have offended and what they have missed?
You will cry later!
The author has something to say:
--Now
: Even if they walk out of this place without pills to eat, they will never come to you for anything!
Later: It smells really good.
Well, I guess I'm going to make you guys anxious again if I'm stuck here... Update twice a day? I didn't update twice a day on New Year's Day, hahaha.
Thank you for the mines of the blue sea~
