"Haha, you have quite a temper, but the more I look at you, the more you like me. You don't want to be my disciple? Sooner or later, I will make you cry and beg to become my disciple, Feng Qingyu." The fat man looked at Mu Hanyan's departing back and showed that obscene smile again.
At night, the others were either practicing or sleeping. The yard was quiet. Mu Hanyan sat beside the stone table, constantly practicing alchemy.
Although the master of Tianjin Palace had specially selected ancient alchemy books and gave them to Mu Hanyan along with his own notes on his experience over the years, it was still not an easy task for a beginner to refine decent items.
Like sword-making and alchemy, alchemy usually also requires an alchemy furnace, but it is much smaller than a sword-making furnace and much larger than an alchemy furnace, somewhere in between the two. It is also engraved with various runes, and looks much more refined than a sword-making furnace, and much stronger than an alchemy furnace.
A lot of scrapped meteorite gold had been thrown beside the stone table. They were all waste products from previous failures. However, Mu Hanyan did not give up. She continued to perform hand gestures and continued to practice alchemy techniques unyieldingly.
Unconsciously, a thin layer of sweat seeped out of her forehead, and her expression became more and more solemn. On the alchemy furnace, an exquisite necklace gradually took shape.
This is called a dragon-patterned necklace. It can condense the power of heaven and earth, which is beneficial for cultivation. However, because this alchemical artifact is too low-grade and cannot function independently, it must rely on the practitioner's own energy to activate it. Therefore, it is usually only wielded by masters above the level of swordsman. At this level of strength, the power of heaven and earth required for each advancement is extremely huge. The power condensed by the dragon-patterned necklace is like a drop in the bucket, so its practical value is not very great.
However, precisely because of its extremely low grade, it is perfect for practicing techniques.
Seeing that the dragon-patterned necklace was about to be successfully refined, Mu Hanyan's face showed joy, but at this moment, a slight click sound came from her ears, and the vaguely formed dragon-patterned necklace cracked in the middle.
Failed again. It seems that alchemy is not so easy to learn. Mu Hanyan wiped the sweat from her forehead and sighed slightly.
"It's just a necklace with dragon pattern, but it takes so much effort to refine it." A teasing voice came into my ears.
Mu Hanyan turned her head and saw Fatty Feng's annoying face.
Thinking of this guy's despicable behavior, Mu Hanyan became alert and subconsciously shrank back.
"Don't worry, even Old Man Gong is interested in you. He even went to Beiyuan Mist Plain to pick the Moon Shadow Orchid to help you cleanse your meridians and marrow. This shows that you have good aptitude and there is no need to touch your bones anymore." Seeing Mu Hanyan's wariness, the fat man looked at Mu Hanyan up and down with lustful eyes and said.
Although this guy has a despicable character, he is still a senior master of the same generation as Gong Hongru. Mu Hanyan thought that he would not lie to her with such words, and finally felt relieved.
Not interested in talking nonsense with him, Mu Hanyan took out a few pieces of meteorite gold, made some hand gestures, and continued to refine the dragon-patterned necklace.
"If you continue to practice like this, you might not be able to complete the dragon necklace in an entire night. Tsk tsk, who taught you this technique? You are simply misleading me."
Mu Hanyan was too lazy to pay attention to him and simply turned her face away, so that out of sight, out of mind.
"Wrong, wrong. You should use the Tianyang Art for this hand gesture. Why are you using the Feiyun Art? Even if you can refine a dragon pattern necklace, the quality will be greatly reduced."
"Wrong again, wrong again. Is this how the Seven Star Dragon Seal is used? I remember those useless instructors at Longyan Academy taught me this hundreds of years ago. I've clearly reminded them, so why haven't they changed it yet?"
"It's over, it's over. You're completely ruined if you follow those losers to learn alchemy."
Although Mu Hanyan couldn't see it, she was still annoyed. Fatty Feng kept chattering in her ears, which still made Mu Hanyan very annoyed.
"Crack", the dragon-patterned necklace, which was only one step away from being refined, made another clear sound, and broke in the middle, turning into a pile of scrap copper and iron.
"See, see. I told you that you would never succeed even if you practiced like this until dawn. Now you believe me, right?" Fatty Feng continued to chatter.
"If you hadn't been chattering all the time, I would have succeeded long ago." Mu Hanyan said unconvinced.
Having said that, Mu Hanyan herself knew that with her current skills, it was indeed not an easy task to refine a dragon-patterned necklace.
"Hmph, with your skills, you may not be able to refine it in one night. Even if you succeed, it will be rubbish. Let me show you my alchemy skills." Feng Qingyu was too lazy to argue with Mu Hanyan. He directly took out a few pieces of meteorite gold and then made a hand gesture.
Mu Hanyan only knew that this fat man had amazing cultivation, but she didn't know that he also knew alchemy. She was secretly curious, but didn't say much, just staring intently at his hand gestures.
Runes of light and shadow danced gracefully in Feng Qingyu's hands, and the dark blue fire seemed to have a spirit, dancing happily. The meteorite gold was quickly melted and condensed, and it changed with his hand gestures.
In less than half an hour, an exquisite dragon-patterned necklace appeared before Mu Hanyan's eyes. Putting aside its ability to condense the power of heaven and earth, its beautiful appearance alone was enough to make one's heart flutter.
"See? This is the real alchemy. Now you know how powerful I am. Come and become my disciple." Feng Qingyu said proudly.
"It's nothing great." Mu Hanyan said with disapproval on the surface, but secretly admired him in her heart.
Although this fat man's behavior was a bit shameless and his smile was a bit dirty, one had to admit that his alchemy technique was indeed exquisite and mysterious, which made Mu Hanyan suddenly enlightened.
