The core building of Guiyuan Pavilion is a high tower, which is the landmark building of the entire Beiwang City. Only by entering this tower can one become an inner disciple of Guiyuan Pavilion.
There is a square not far from the tower. Alchemists from all over Huangzhou gather here to discuss and verify the alchemy skills. There are also many disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion. It is precisely because of their presence that more alchemists are attracted, hoping to get the favor of the disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion and jump into Guiyuan Pavilion to become one of them.
After knowing that there is such a place, Gu Yao couldn't move forward. Chi Changye simply rented a yard near the square. During the day, he accompanied Gu Yao to the square to meet various alchemists, and returned to the small yard to rest at night.
Although he didn't want to be disturbed in this state, seeing Gu Yao's immersed posture, Chi Changye felt guilty and thought that he should notify Chen Sheng so as not to delay his retreat, so he sent a message to Chen Sheng and told them their current whereabouts.
Chen Sheng almost jumped up after receiving the message. Coincidentally, his current residence was not far from the tower. After all, Chen Chan joined the inner cabinet. With her status and wealth, she could still afford a house nearby. Others had to give some face to Guiyuan Pavilion.
Chen Sheng immediately called Luo Xiao and the other two to rush over together. It was obvious that they had not just arrived in Beiwang City. Chen Sheng was also convinced. Could he say that it was fortunate that they remembered to notify him and didn't let him wait in vain?
Luo Xiao and the other two were also very excited. Although they followed Chen Sheng, they were still very grateful to Gu Yao and Chi Chang Ye. After arriving in Beiwang City, with the elixirs and other cultivation resources provided by Chen Chan, the three of them successively possessed the power of the Spiritual Transformation, and there was still a lot of room for growth.
Of course, compared to them, the opportunities of Gu Yao and the other two were even more exciting. You must know that originally only the city lord of Beiya City was a cultivator of the Refining Void, which was already unattainable for them. Now Gu Yao and Chi Chang Ye have both reached the Refining Void, and Chen Sheng will soon. It is said that those who have obtained great opportunities in the secret realm will almost never fail to survive the Refining Void Heavenly Tribulation.
Chen Sheng came during the day, and naturally followed Gu Yao and Chi Changye to the Alchemy Square. When they arrived, Gu Yao was immersed in a huge jade disk in front of him. On the jade disk rolled questions raised by alchemists, or new ideas proposed by alchemists, and other alchemists were welcome to come and discuss and verify.
Gu Yao felt that the questions and various answers collected by so many alchemists opened up a new horizon for his alchemy. Although he had the best alchemy inheritance in his hands, and believed that there was no more comprehensive than the Alchemy Pavilion, a person's energy and thinking were limited after all. Gu Yao did not think he was a narrow-minded person, but what he could think about was still very limited. There would always be places he could not take care of, or blind spots in his thinking.
But here, even if it was a question and answer full of errors, he could still read it with great interest and point out the problems to them.
Many alchemists gathered around this jade disk, but Gu Yao and Chi Changye were still very eye-catching. Chen Sheng and others who found this side saw them at a glance. It was really that Chi Changye, a sword cultivator, was so different from others among a bunch of alchemists.
When some friends came over, Gu Yao finally got out of the jade disk. He was also very happy to see Chen Sheng and the safe Luo Xiao. Several people left the Alchemy Square and found a place to gather and exchange their experiences after separation.
Chen Sheng's mouth was almost dry from talking, and suddenly he said, "Gu Yao, what do you think of Guiyuan Pavilion?"
Gu Yao replied seriously, "It's a good place. The owner of this pavilion is quite open-minded. With the Guiyuan Pavilion he founded, I think the team of alchemists in Huangzhou has been greatly improved. Even if you can't join Guiyuan Pavilion, you can still find opportunities to learn alchemy in Beiwang City."
It can be said that Guiyuan Pavilion is a semi-open force. The popularity attracted by the establishment of Guiyuan Pavilion by the owner of the pavilion is
incomparable to that of the second-grade alchemist in Tianyang Sect. Although both of them have second-grade alchemy skills, in his opinion, this pavilion owner has a higher prestige among the alchemists in Huangzhou. If
it weren't for this pavilion owner, many cultivators in Huangzhou would lose the opportunity to learn and further study alchemy.
He had been here for only a few days when he heard that this Wen Pavilion Master had studied in Lingzhou and was still in contact with the alchemists in Lingzhou. Some people also said that if he could get the eye of Wen Pavilion Master, he might have the opportunity to be recommended by him to go to Lingzhou. Guiyuan Pavilion was the holy land of the alchemists in Huangzhou, so Lingzhou was the holy land in the minds of the alchemists in the entire spiritual world.
Gu Yao felt that his evaluation was quite fair, but Xu Chen in the space was unhappy to hear that. He was such a genius in alchemy, but he could not get Gu Yao's affirmation here, but he heard that he was praising other alchemists. Damn Hun boy!
Gu Yao had such a good impression of Guiyuan Pavilion that Chen Sheng felt relieved and had the courage to express his aunt's thoughts: "Then are you interested in joining Guiyuan Pavilion?"
Chi Changye raised his eyebrows. What kind of question was this? Seeing that Chen Sheng looked at Gu Yao nervously, it was obviously not a casual question.
Gu Yao chuckled and did not avoid the question: "If I stayed in Huangzhou, I would be interested in giving it a try. Although I haven't decided how long to stay, I will leave Huangzhou one day and travel around the spiritual world. I think an alchemist like me who doesn't follow the rules and can't stand constraints is not suitable to stay."
Luo Xiao and the other two looked at Gu Yao with admiration. There was actually someone who didn't want to join Guiyuan Pavilion, and as for leaving Huangzhou? They dared not imagine it. In the past, they did not have the courage to step out of Beiya City. Now, the sky of Huangzhou is vast enough for them.
Chen Sheng also smiled with relief: "I guessed you would say that. In fact, I envy you for being able to leave everything and go." At that time, he trapped himself on the ship of Shuangxing Trading Company and almost capsized himself.
Gu Yao shook his head and said, "If you have the same experience as us, you will also do the same as us, that is, the cultivators of this Desolate State, after encountering a bottleneck in cultivation, I think you will also choose to leave here and go to other states to look for opportunities."
Desolate State is Chen Sheng's hometown, and he is reluctant to leave unless it is necessary. Just like Chi Changye, he regards Lingyun Sect of Wanluo Continent as his home. If he leaves, he will find ways to go back, until his cultivation reaches the limit of Wanluo Continent, and then he has to leave
. As for Gu Yao himself, he sometimes wonders, is his hometown in the interstellar world, or in this entire cultivation world? It seems to be, and it seems to be neither, but he will not be embarrassed by it, because home is where the heart is.
Chen Sheng nodded.
What Gu Yao said made sense. He was born and raised here, so he naturally had a sense of belonging to Huangzhou and could not easily leave. However, Gu Yao and Chi Changye did not have this sense of belonging to this place. "Well, if you are leaving, tell us. By the way, my aunt wants to see you. I am familiar with this place, and with my aunt's status, I can take you to places that only disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion can go to. You know, in the whole Huangzhou, this is the place with the most complete spiritual herbs resources, and there are spiritual herbs from other states."
Gu Yao laughed when he heard it. This was completely tempting him. He nodded and said, "Thank you."
After eating and drinking, Gu Yao and the others left with Chen Sheng, not noticing the situation in the private room next door.
There were two people drinking in the room. Although the partitions in the private room were good, the sound was still faintly heard by them because the formation was not activated. If it was not related to Guiyuan Pavilion, the two would not listen to it deliberately.
Seeing that the people next door had gone far away, one of them snorted in displeasure: "You are so arrogant that you even look down on Guiyuan Pavilion.
As for Gu Yao's evaluation of the master of Guiyuan Pavilion, it was not natural in his eyes.
The white-faced scholar-like monk opposite him looked at him helplessly: "This is obviously not a monk from Huangzhou. Judging from his tone, he should be from
other continents. It is not uncommon for people who just came to the spirit world not to stay in Huangzhou for a long time. If I had not traveled around in the past, I might not have achieved today's results."
The white-faced scholar was the owner of Guiyuan Pavilion, Master Wen. When he had nothing to do, he would use a trick to walk in the city. Master Wen listened to their conversation and was not angry, but a little happy, because Gu Yao's evaluation of Guiyuan Pavilion and his actions were most in line with his original intention. He had heard the outside world praise Guiyuan Pavilion, but it was not as good as this.
He wanted to promote the level of alchemy in the entire Wasteland State by himself. Before him, the development of alchemy in the Wasteland State was at the bottom of the spiritual world. The alchemists in the Wasteland State were looked down upon. It just so happened that he had some opportunities. After feeling that his practice had reached a bottleneck, he returned to this land and founded the Guiyuan Pavilion.
Although he was still stuck at the stage of a second-grade alchemist, he could proudly say that his Guiyuan Pavilion had trained many alchemists for the Wasteland State.
"Pavilion Master, you..." The cultivator opposite did not expect that the Pavilion Master was not only not unhappy, but seemed to be a little interested in the unknown little alchemist
.
"Let's go. I'm in a good mood today. Let's go for a walk."
"Okay, Pavilion Master." This cultivator was met by Pavilion Master Wen during his travels. He later followed Pavilion Master Wen and was one of the best in the entire Huangzhou. Therefore, if he wanted to attack Guiyuan Pavilion and its master, he had to go through him.
Gu Yaosi had no idea that he had passed by the Pavilion Master of Guiyuan Pavilion. They followed Chen Sheng to the so-called insider area. As soon as he entered, Gu Yao was almost dazzled, because this place was simply a paradise for flowers and plants, as if all the space could be used to grow exotic flowers and plants, some of which could be used as medicine, and some were just for decoration.
When you come here, you can see many monks wearing Guiyuan Pavilion patterns on their clothes, not to mention the disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion. Most of the shops are from various places in Huangzhou or even other states. They sell spiritual herbs to the disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion at a relatively favorable price, and at the same time buy elixirs from them. Both sides benefit.
Even for the title of the second-grade alchemist of the owner Wen Pavilion, many merchants are willing to provide greater discounts to the alchemists here and try their best to transfer complete spiritual herb resources. Who doesn't want to make a good relationship with a second-grade alchemist?
Gu Yao walked through the shops one by one. There were so many kinds of spiritual herbs that it was hard to look at. There were many fourth-grade and even third-grade spiritual herbs placed in special transparent containers for the monks to see. As for the second-grade spiritual herbs, they would not appear in such shops. Once they were obtained, they would probably be used exclusively by the Pavilion Master, and other alchemists would not be able to use them.
Gu Yao suddenly felt that alchemists should live in such places. If they needed any spiritual herbs, there would naturally be special merchants to get them for them. They didn't have to spend time looking for them themselves. If these merchants couldn't find them, there was even less hope for them to find them.
In the future, he would have enough strength and no need to travel around. Maybe he would also be like the Pavilion Master and set up an alchemy pavilion. As long as his level was high enough, he would not worry about not being able to attract merchants from all walks of life. He had not forgotten his previous idea, which was to copy a Dan Pavilion and open it to more alchemists.
In addition to the disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion, there were also outsiders like Gu Yao who had connections. However, without the disciple certificate of Guiyuan Pavilion, they could not enjoy the preferential treatment for purchases. Even so, Gu Yao still replenished a batch of spiritual herbs that he lacked.
Walking into another store, Gu Yao found another spiritual herb that he lacked with his sharp eyes. Having seen countless pill recipes, he remembered that this was a spiritual herb that could be used in a rather unconventional pill recipe. When he saw this unconventional pill recipe, he became interested in the performance of this spiritual herb. He did not expect to find it here, so he bought all ten spiritual herbs in the store without hesitation.
Gu Yao paid the spiritual stones, and the men went to the storehouse at the back to get the remaining spiritual herbs. Chen Sheng and Luo Xiao had seen Gu Yao's generosity along the way, and the spiritual stones he spent made Luo Xiao and the other two feel heartbroken, and they also felt that they were too superficial.
While they were waiting, a few more monks came in from behind. It was obvious at a glance that they had the Guiyuan Pavilion pattern on their clothes, and they were disciples of the Guiyuan Pavilion. They also came to buy spiritual herbs, and reported the names of many spiritual herbs. The leader was a Lianxu monk, who asked for a lot of fourth-grade spiritual herbs. The shopkeeper personally entertained them and was obviously more enthusiastic about them.
At this time, the assistant who got the spiritual herbs for Gu Yao came out and asked Gu Yao to check the condition and quantity of the spiritual herbs. He would not be responsible for anything after leaving the store. This was to prevent someone from defrauding the store.
Gu Yao scanned the spiritual herbs with his consciousness and nodded with satisfaction to put them away. Suddenly, a voice rang out from the side: "Wait a minute.
It was the Lianxu monk who heard the voice. Gu Yao turned around and looked at the other party. She was a beautiful female alchemist. She should have good qualifications, so there was a hint of pride between her eyebrows.
She pointed at the spiritual herbs that Gu Yao was going to put away and asked the assistant: "Do you still have this blood crystal grass in the store?"
The assistant was stunned and said hurriedly: "All of them were bought by this alchemist." "
The female alchemist frowned slightly, looked at Gu Yao, and asked: "Are you also an alchemist? Can you give me these blood crystal grass? I need this kind of spiritual herb, and I can compensate you in other ways."
The female alchemist was very confident, and it seemed that she would not think that Gu Yao would not transfer them. The clerks and the shopkeeper were in a dilemma, because Gu Yao had already paid the bill, and it was impossible to force him to give them up. They could only hope that he would give in for the sake of the disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion. It would be a loss to offend the disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion.
However, Gu Yao shook his head under their gaze: "I'm sorry, I also need this spiritual herb. You can make a reservation with the store and wait for the next batch of blood crystal grass. "
He himself didn't know how long he would stay here. He was very happy to come across such an uncommon spiritual herb as the Blood Crystal Grass. If he gave it up this time, he didn't know if he could come across it again next time.
"You..." The other party was slightly stunned. He never expected Gu Yao to refuse so bluntly.
The shopkeeper explained with surprise: "The Blood Crystal Grass was transported from other states. It may take several months to wait for the next batch, and there is no guarantee that it will be available."
Gu Yao didn't want to give it up even more when he heard it, not to mention that he had already bought it.
The people behind him immediately stood up for the senior sister: "Does this cultivator come from here? Does he know the rules? This is our senior sister from the inner pavilion of Guiyuan Pavilion. If you give the spiritual herbs to my senior sister, it will naturally be beneficial to you, and it will also avoid wasting these spiritual herbs. "
It was obvious that he looked down on Gu Yao and thought that the spiritual herbs in his hands would not be able to be used to refine pills. The other people who followed in also belittled Gu Yao and asked him to give up the spiritual herbs.
Chi Changye stood beside Gu Yao, and the dominant aura of a sword cultivator emanated from him. The female alchemist Lianxu couldn't help but take two steps back. What a strong aura. Chen Sheng and the others also rushed over to help. As long as Gu Yao was unwilling to hand it over, no one could force him.
Anger flashed in the eyes of the female alchemist. She had been in Guiyuan Pavilion for such a long time and had never encountered a situation where anyone did not give her face. She thought that as long as she opened her mouth, the other party would give up the spiritual herbs. In her opinion, it would be a waste for the other party to take the spiritual herbs.
Since you won't give in despite the nice words, don't blame her for being rude. The female alchemist said coldly, "Since you are also an alchemist, and we are both cultivators of the Void Refining Stage, then this alchemist will challenge you to an alchemy duel. If this alchemist wins, all the blood crystal grass in your hand will belong to me."
Gu Yao felt unhappy. How could you force someone to compete in an alchemy duel? Isn't an alchemy duel based on the willingness of both parties?
Gu Yao didn't want to agree with the other party at all. Unexpectedly, Xu Chen said in the space at this time: "Which girl is so arrogant? Gu Yao, come on, let my girl see how powerful you are. I tell you not to lose, and you can't tarnish my reputation!"
"Don't worry about exposing Dan Ge. Just don't use the soul refining technique. Fight her with all your might!"
Gu Yao thought about it and it was a good idea. He couldn't always be restrained because of the matter of Dan Ge and his predecessors. He even had trouble buying a few spiritual herbs.
Chi Changye looked like Gu Yao was in charge of everything, because as long as Gu Yao wanted to fight, there was no reason for him to lose. Chen Sheng was getting anxious. He just heard other people's discussions and remembered who this female alchemist was. His aunt had mentioned this alchemist and admired her very much. Her alchemy skills were outstanding among her peers. How could Gu Yao win against her?
In a hurry, Chen Sheng secretly contacted his aunt. After all, his aunt was also a disciple of the inner chamber, and maybe she could persuade them to reconcile. He also felt that the other party was too much. Others had bought the things and were unwilling to sell them, so they had to use this method to embarrass others.
"Okay."
Chen Sheng thought he was hallucinating. Who said it was right? He quickly looked at Gu Yao.
Gu Yao opened his mouth softly and said again: "Okay, I agree, but if I lose, I will give up these blood crystal grasses. But what if I win? What can I get? Do you want to get something for nothing?"
The disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion who followed the female alchemist were furious. How could their senior sister lose to an unknown outsider? If he had good talent, he would have been accepted by Guiyuan Pavilion long ago. Don't want to enter Guiyuan Pavilion? That's simply a big joke. Go out and ask passers-by what they think. The
female alchemist raised her chin slightly, quite conceited. She didn't think she would lose, but she wouldn't take advantage of Gu Yao either. She took out ten pieces of the relatively rare spiritual herb Qinghun Grass.
Gu Yao was excited at the first sight. The value of these ten pieces of Soul-Clearing Grass was far higher than that of Blood Crystal Grass, because Soul-Clearing Grass could be used to refine elixirs that were beneficial to the soul. This kind of spiritual grass could not be obtained without some connections.
Gu Yao's consciousness laughed in the space: "Fortunately, Senior persuaded me to agree, otherwise I would have missed this Soul-Clearing Grass. Senior, please watch me win these ten Soul-Clearing Grasses."
"Okay, keep going!" There is no alchemist who doesn't like this kind of spiritual herbs and elixirs. The higher the level of alchemists, the more they realize the importance of the soul and control.
Gu Yao couldn't suppress his smile: "I will try my best."
The female alchemist glanced at Gu Yao with contempt, turned around and walked out. Alchemy competitions are often seen in Guiyuan Pavilion. It is also one of the means for Guiyuan Pavilion to encourage disciples to compete with each other. Only in this way can the enthusiasm and potential of disciples be constantly stimulated.
Gu Yao and Chi Changye, the two bumpkins, only knew the specific process after Chen Sheng's reminder and explanation. However, there was no fear on their faces. Gu Yao put away the blood crystal grass and walked out calmly with the female alchemist.
Chen Sheng also took the opportunity to explain the identity of this female alchemist. Her surname was Huang and her name was Ruyue. She was very famous among the disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion. Unlike Chen Sheng's aunt, Huang Ruyue had been selected by a third-grade alchemist of Guiyuan Pavilion as his personal disciple. Chen Sheng was worried about Gu Yao, but he didn't expect that Gu Yao would fight with this person as soon as he arrived at Guiyuan Pavilion. It is estimated that not many disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion would have a good face for Gu Yao.
Of course, more people think that Gu Yao is overestimating his own abilities.
As Chen Sheng expected, fighting for alchemy is very common, but Huang Ruyue took the initiative to challenge others to fight for alchemy, which is not very common. Which damn guy provoked Huang Ruyue? Needless to say, such a battle of pills cannot be missed, so the alchemists who got the news rushed to the battle of pills to help Huang Ruyue.
Seeing more and more people going to the battle of pills, Chen Sheng was sweating anxiously. Chi Changye glanced at him with displeasure and said, "Xiao Yao can win, you should worry about the Guiyuan Pavilion."
Don't wait for Gu Yao to win and come up with some tricks. He also knows the importance of Qinghun Grass and the pills made with it as the main medicine to the alchemists. The other party dared to take out Qinghun Grass, probably to show off, and secondly, to be confident that this drop of soul grass will not be lost. Will
she be willing to lose it?
Chi Changye left Chen Sheng standing there stupidly, and left his back. Chen Sheng was dumbfounded. Was Chi Changye standing by Gu Yao's side unconditionally because he and Gu Yao were Taoist couples, or did he always underestimate Gu Yao's alchemy skills? Was that why Gu Yao was unwilling to join Guiyuan Pavilion?
"Sheng'er, what's going on?" Chen Chan rushed to the Dantai to find Chen Sheng, grabbed him and asked.
Chen Sheng couldn't figure out Gu Yao's true alchemy skills, but he couldn't say that Gu Yao did anything wrong, so he told his aunt the whole story.
Aunt Chen was anxious when she heard this: "Although the blood crystal grass is a little rare, if it is not urgent, can't you just give it up? Even if your friend can enter Guiyuan Pavilion in the future, he will never have a good life."
Chen Sheng remembered that he had not had time to tell his aunt about this matter, and hurriedly said: "Gu Yao said that he didn't want to enter Guiyuan Pavilion. They can't stay in Huangzhou for long. Let me thank you for your kindness. Aunt, this matter is obviously that "It was the fault of Master Huang Dan. Gu Yao even paid the spirit stones, but she forced Gu Yao to fight for the elixir because she was unwilling to transfer it to her."
He felt a little aggrieved when he said this. Didn't Master Huang Dan rely on her own alchemy skills to bully others? She thought Gu Yao's alchemy skills were not as good as hers, so she wanted to use this method to rob the blood crystal grass from Gu Yao. It was no different from robbing. At this moment, he really hoped that Gu Yao could defeat Master Huang Dan and let her get nothing.
