"Then let's schedule the alchemy session in five days. All the alchemists who have passed the guild's appraisal are eligible to enter. As for the fellow Taoists who are not alchemists, I appreciate their kindness." There was no need for anything else. He and Chi Changye would not have the time to meet them.
"Well, I'll go and make a notice. You old guys, let the ancient alchemist take a break and make adequate preparations for the alchemy session in five days. Don't disturb him anymore. By the way, whatever materials the ancient alchemist needs for the alchemy session in five days will be obtained from the guild. There is no reason for the ancient alchemist to pay for it himself." Hu Ting glanced at the old guys, then turned back to Gu Yao.
"Okay, I'll make a list later." Gu Yao did not refuse.
As soon as the meeting was over, the elder surnamed Hao took the initiative to take the task and took Gu Yao and his party to the back yard to rest. Every elder has a private yard. Although Gu Yao has not shown up, the place has been arranged long ago, and someone will come to take action immediately if there is any adjustment.
Hu Ding quickly issued a notice in the guild, and the alchemists present were very excited, especially the certified alchemists, who were waiting for the five-day deadline to arrive. Those who have not yet been certified are anxious. Fortunately, there are still five days left, so they quickly sign up for certification.
Those monks who came here because of the reputation are very regretful, because this threshold will keep them out.
However, the situation in the crowded market finally improved. The crowds who knew it was hopeless gradually dispersed, and those who stayed were basically alchemists and monks who wanted to join this industry.
Five days passed quickly. Apart from sending a list to ask the guild to help prepare spiritual herbs, Gu Yao and Chi Changye did not show up. The other elders found that a fat boy who came with Gu Yao often followed Hu Ting, and Hu Ting treated him very kindly.
Thinking of some previous rumors, some elders realized that it was no wonder that Hu Ding had such a good relationship with Gu Yao. It turned out that he had sent his own grandson to Gu Yao.
That's not right. This fat boy appeared in Tianfu Academy with Gu Yao early in the morning. They were already familiar with Gu Yao's situation, so they were sure that Gu Yao would achieve what he has today? Or was it just a blind cat that caught a dead rat?
No matter what, being able to reunite with his grandson, who was so impressive, most people still gave him well-intentioned congratulations. Hu Ting did not deny it this time, and even asked his grandson to meet the elders, and then ended up receiving a bunch of gifts. This made Tian Feirong envious, because the gifts given by these elders were certainly good.
Gu Yao walked out of the room and saw the fat boy and Tian Feirong waiting outside, and said with a smile: "Fatty, you are still wearing a mask? You don't want to take it off?"
The fat boy touched his face. He was used to facing the monks outside in this way. He was not used to taking it off suddenly: "I'll wear it for now. Not many people know my identity. Those elders won't tell anyone."
Gu Yao patted the fat boy. It was his own decision, but if the people in the academy and Cuiyan Valley knew about it, it would definitely cause quite a stir. It was estimated that the fat boy would be watched as a mascot for a while.
The four of them left the courtyard. An elder was already waiting with the staff of the guild, leading them to the small square inside the guild. It was the place where the general president, elders and other high-level people usually openly made pills, but the requirements for entry were a little stricter this time.
The elder smiled and said, "Once the entry conditions for Gu Danshi were announced, many more alchemists came to the guild to verify their qualifications."
Gu Yao said modestly, "This shows that our guild is well run and has won the hearts of alchemists."
"Haha..." The elder laughed, stroking his beard. Gu Yao was indeed the same as the general president said. He had achieved such success at a young age, but he did not develop an arrogant mentality. This character was somewhat similar to Hu Ting. It was precisely because of this that people with different personalities could get along harmoniously here.
The small square was crowded with people. Gu Yao raised his eyebrows. It seemed that a large number of alchemists gathered in Danding City. Although most of them were ninth-grade alchemists, it was a scale that no force dared to underestimate. It was precisely because of this that the importance of Danding City became more and more apparent.
"That's Master Gu Dan. He's really young! And so handsome. Ah - he smiled at me!"
"He smiled at all of us, not just at you. Ah! Master Gu Dan was my guide into the alchemy world. I stepped into this world without hesitation just for Master Gu Dan!" "Senior Chi has really been following
Master Gu Dan. Even after becoming the number one in Tianlin Continent, he still didn't give up following Master Gu Dan. Senior Chi, well done!" This is an alchemist who worships martial arts. He seems a little unsociable, but there are all kinds of people in the world. At this moment, there are several alchemists with swords on their backs sitting in the small square. Chi Changye
is a sword cultivator and is proficient in talismans. Can't they practice swords while refining pills?
Even if there were a few different voices, they were quickly drowned out by the crowd. Forget about the others. The young alchemists were particularly enthusiastic about Gu Yao, just like the martial arts-seeking monks were enthusiastic about Chi Chang Ye. The two had achieved very high achievements in their respective fields.
Hu Ting raised his hand and pressed it down. The small square immediately became quiet. Hu Ting gave a few simple instructions and handed the main seat to Gu Yao. Today, the small square was Gu Yao's stage.
Gu Yao did not say anything more. After taking a look around, he took out the alchemy furnace. It was the alchemy furnace of the spiritual weapon level from the Cangkun Secret Realm. The elders and Hu Ting present could roughly guess the origin of the alchemy furnace, because it appeared beside Gu Yao after the Cangkun Secret Realm was closed.
On one side, there was a rolling jade light curtain made with the help of the Instrument Master Guild. The pills refined by Gu Yao would be listed on it. After Gu Yao briefly talked about the precautions for refining the pill, he lit the fire to refine the pill. The small square suddenly became quiet. The light curtain also projected the scene on the central platform, so that people who were a little further away could see more clearly.
The platform was in the center of the small square, and the stands surrounded it. Facing countless eyes, Gu Yao did not feel any pressure at all. He started to refine the ninth-grade lower-level elixir, and in order to let everyone see the refining process more clearly, he deliberately slowed down the speed.
Even if the speed was slowed down, his movements still made people feel that he was lifting a heavy weight with ease, and the elders who were watching him gradually got involved.
No matter how slow, there will be a time for the elixir to come out. One by one, the round and top-grade elixir flew out of the elixir furnace, which made the alchemists in the small square exclaim. They had heard that Gu Yao could easily refine the top-grade elixir, but this incident first happened in the secret realm, so many people were skeptical.
Now it seems that Gu Yao is very restrained when refining pills.
He refined several representative ninth-grade lower-level pills in one go, and all the pills that came out of the furnace were top-grade pills, without any mistakes. This skill shocked all the alchemists present.
Ninth-grade low-level pills, ninth-grade intermediate pills, and ninth-grade high-level pills all ended up as top-grade pills, which made the elders on the side stare with fascination. They saw it more clearly than the ninth-grade alchemists below. The most terrifying reason why Gu Yao could refine pills so perfectly was his excellent control. So some people said that Gu Yao's outstanding talent in alchemy was due to his strong soul. Now it seems that this statement is not wrong.
In addition, it can be seen that he is very familiar with various spiritual herbs. He can refine them with his eyes closed. This shows that no matter how outstanding Tian Fu is, he usually spends a lot of time to familiarize himself with various spiritual herbs and master their properties.
A pair of senior brothers and sisters who had bumped into Gu Yao and the others that day were also on the stands in the small square. Because they were chosen by Elder Hao, they were able to sit in a relatively close position. They could still keep up with the intermediate pills that Gu Yao was refining, but it was very difficult for them to make the advanced pills. In the end, they had to look away, with cold sweat on their foreheads, because they used their spiritual consciousness to see, and wanted to remember every step and movement, but their spiritual consciousness was a little weak for the advanced pills, and if they continued to force themselves, they would only suffer backlash.
The brothers and sisters looked at each other, with longing, admiration and shock in their eyes. On weekdays, when they heard other alchemists praise Gu Yao as unprecedented and unrivalled, of course some people would feel uncomfortable, thinking that it was impossible for an alchemist to reach such a height. But only when they saw it with their own eyes did they know that those praises were not only not exaggerated, but also very restrained, because the praises did not say that Gu Yao's furnace could produce top-grade pills.
If there were not so many cultivators present to see it together, I am afraid that after the news spread, someone would say that the boasting was about to burst.
"Brother, I feel that Master Gu is somewhat familiar. On the day when Master Gu first came, we met four cultivators at the door of a store. Maybe it was Master Gu and his group." The sister happened to see Gu Yao's profile from her position, and the more she looked, the more she felt that he looked like him.
"No way, why would Master Gu Yao need to go to such a small place." Senior Brother doubted. The spiritual herbs in that shop were basically used to refine ninth-grade pills. In his opinion, Gu Yao's vision should be much higher than theirs. How could he be interested in such low-level spiritual herbs? Junior
Sister smiled bitterly. It didn't matter whether it was true or not. She didn't recognize him when they passed by each other that day. I'm afraid she won't have the chance to get close to him in the future. Junior Sister found that she was a little exaggerated by the people around her these days. However, compared with Master Gu Yao, the gap was like a world of difference.
Gu Yao spent ten days and ten nights refining pills in the small square without moving. When he consumed too much energy, he would take pills to replenish it and then continue refining. Although he sometimes failed, his success rate and the quality of his pills were like a miracle for the alchemy world of Tianlin Continent.
The entire process of refining pills was recorded by the photo stone, which will become an important collection of the Alchemist Association for alchemists from all over the world to read.
The final product is the eighth-grade high-level elixir. Although it looks a bit laborious, the product is also a top-grade elixir. The elders are jealous. They also want the top-grade high-level elixir. They want to refine a top-grade elixir, but it depends on the probability, and the probability is very small. They secretly plan to use the resources in their hands to exchange with Gu Yao after the elixir refining is completed.
