"Master, what happened?" Several alchemists nearby also noticed his abnormality and asked anxiously.
"Master Jiang, Master Jiang said he had something urgent to do and won't come." Xie Fuzhi said with difficulty, his voice was extremely bitter.
"What!" Everyone's expression changed after hearing this, and their faces that were just full of joy suddenly became cloudy.
"Did Master Jiang say what the urgent matter was?" An alchemist grabbed Xie Fuzhi's arm and asked anxiously.
"He didn't say it, but just apologized to us and said that there would be a chance to cooperate with Shendan Pavilion in the future." Xie Fuzhi tried to squeeze out a smile, but his smile was uglier than crying. ??
The faces of other alchemists also turned pale. What's the future? If Shendan Pavilion loses this competition, what's the future? Master Jiang's words are obviously just perfunctory.
"Master, let's go find the other Danshengs right away. As long as they are willing to help, we still have a chance." An alchemist forced himself to calm down and said to Xie Fuzhi.
"It's too late." Xie Fuzhi shook his head and sighed.
Everyone realized that although Gu Qingxi only took less than an hour to repair the Xuantian Zixu furnace, Chu Chengdao had spent more than two days before that. Even if
they found other Dan Shengs now, they would be willing to help, but it was too late.
"Jiang Qinghe is a Dan Sheng after all, how can he go back on his word?" A young alchemist said angrily.
"If he didn't want to help, he should have refused early. It's not cheating to go back on his word when the time comes." Another alchemist echoed, his face flushed with anger.
"It doesn't make sense. Jiang Qinghe is a Dan Sheng, and his words are always true. How could he go back on his words?" Someone else said puzzled.
"Could it be that Taiyi Sect heard the news and gave him some benefits, or forced him to change his mind?" Someone speculated.
"It shouldn't be. With Jiang Qinghe's strength and reputation, he won't go back on his words for a little benefit.
As for forcing, I don't think Taiyi Sect is so bold as to force a Dan Sheng." Someone immediately refuted.
"Master, something bad has happened." Just when everyone was puzzled, a young alchemist rushed in in a hurry.
"What happened?" Xie Fuzhi asked immediately.
"I just heard that Sun Tingxuan broke through the bottleneck and was promoted from the early stage of Mahayana to the middle stage of Mahayana." The young alchemist said anxiously.
The room was suddenly silent, and the faces of Xie Fuzhi and others became even paler.
"No wonder Jiang Qinghe would regret it, so that's it, so that's it." After a long time, an alchemist suddenly said.
His face turned from pale to ashes, as if all his energy and spirit disappeared in an instant.
"Alchemy Saint, Alchemy Saint of the middle stage of Mahayana, ah." Another alchemist sighed, his eyes full of despair.
Without them saying more, Gu Qingxi also knew what was going on.
This Sun Tingxuan must be the Alchemy Saint invited by Yudanfang.
Because alchemy practitioners are obsessed with the way of alchemy, their cultivation is usually not too high, and being able to cultivate to the Mahayana realm is often the limit.
Once one crosses the threshold of the early stage of Mahayana, it is very difficult for alchemists to make further progress.
But if one makes further progress, the improvement in strength will be like heaven and earth.
Jiang Qinghe dared to accept the invitation of the Divine Alchemy Pavilion before, probably because his strength is equal to Sun Tingxuan, or even slightly stronger
than Sun Tingxuan.
But now that Sun Tingxuan has been promoted from the early stage of Mahayana to the middle stage, he is far from being his opponent.
Since he knew he was going to lose, why did he run to humiliate himself?
The cultivators of the Tiandi Continent have to save face, and alchemists are no exception, not to mention that he is not an ordinary alchemist, but an alchemy saint.
If he loses slightly, it's okay, but if he loses miserably, will he still have the face of an alchemy saint?
"Master Hao, it seems that you have to take action in the competition with Yudanfang tomorrow." Xie Fuzhi sighed and said to an old man with white hair and an old face.
"Master, my ancestors have served the Shendan Pavilion for generations. As long as I can save the Pavilion, I will not hesitate to sacrifice my life.
But you have to think clearly. He is a Dan Saint, a Dan Saint in the middle stage of the Mahayana. With my alchemy skills, can I really defeat a Dan Saint?
Moreover, I am old and my energy is not as good as before. I am often in a trance on weekdays. Is it really appropriate for me to take action?" The old man said with a wry smile.
That's true. Although Master Hao's alchemy skills are the strongest in the Shendan Pavilion, he is too old. It is indeed not suitable for him to take action in such an important competition.
Xie Fuzhi looked at Master Hao's wrinkled face and his eyes that were becoming somewhat cloudy as the divine light gradually faded, and changed his mind. He said to another old man, "Master Qin, how about you take part in this competition?"
"Master, don't you know how strong I am? If I were to face the other people in Yudanfang, I would at least have a 70% chance of winning, even if I didn't have an 80% chance.
But against the Alchemy Saint, it would be embarrassing to show off my alchemy skills. It's better to admit defeat honestly." The old man whose name was called was about to cry.
The Alchemy Saint had to have face, and so did he.
"Master, I think you should take action yourself.
The Divine Alchemy Pavilion was built by the ancestors of the Xie family. Even if it is going to fail, it should be lost at the hands of the descendants of the Xie family." An alchemist said. "
Yes, Master, if the ancestral foundation is lost in your own hands, it is at least an explanation to the ancestors. If it is lost in our hands, you will be even more unwilling to accept it." Others advised.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became bleak.
Xie Fuzhi's eyes sparkled with tears, but he hesitated to speak.
He also knew that it was most appropriate for him to take part in this competition, and he could lose with peace of mind without regrets.
But he only inherited his ancestral business, but not his ancestors' talents, and his alchemy skills were far inferior to those of Master Hao and Master Qin.
If Master Hao and Master Qin still had a slight chance to win, he didn't even have a slight chance.
"Master Xie, if you can trust me, let me take part in this competition." Seeing Xie Fuzhi's sad face, his nose and eyes were almost squeezed together, Gu Qingxi said.
What, you come?
Xie Fuzhi and others turned their heads at the same time, looking at Gu Qingxi in astonishment, wondering if they had just heard something wrong.
They had seen Gu Qingxi's weapon refining skills with their own eyes. Whether they were willing to admit it or not, no matter how ashamed they were, they had to admit that her weapon refining skills were indeed far superior to Chu Chengdao's.
If Chu Chengdao was a genius in weapon refining, then Gu Qingxi was definitely worthy of the title of a genius against all odds.
But the problem was, tomorrow's competition was about alchemy, not weapon refining. Why would you, a weapon refiner, join in the fun?
If we still trust you... how can we trust you? What can we trust you with?
