The head alchemist was reluctant to help Huang Ruyue out, saying: "Junior sister Huang, you have also finished refining. I just saw that your results are better than before. Senior brother didn't have such good results at your stage. Junior sister should continue to encourage you."
Compared with Huang Ruyue's previous results, this time her performance was really good, four middle-grade pills and one low-grade pill. You should know that when he was at Huang Ruyue's level of cultivation, it was considered good if he could make one pill out of ten furnaces, and it was still a low-grade pill.
But with such a good example in front of him, he really couldn't bear to report this result. The contrast was too terrible.
But before Huang Ruyue's smile could grow, the presiding alchemist announced the result of the alchemy contest: "This time, the ancient alchemist won. Junior sister, this is the ancient spiritual pill refined by the ancient alchemist. I hope we can have another chance to compete with each other."
What? Huang Ruyue's smile froze on her face, and she looked at her senior brother in disbelief. The winner was not her but the unknown alchemist from outside?
"This is impossible!" Huang Ruyue said. Her master said that her grades and alchemy skills would be worth competing for even if she went to Lingzhou, so she asked herself that unless the alchemists from Lingzhou came out, no one could beat her.
The alchemists in the audience showed even more miserable expressions. They really couldn't bear to watch any more. The alchemists who were close could distinguish the quality of the five pills. The best one was not even as good as Gu Yao's worst one. How could they win?
The presiding alchemist sighed and handed Gu Yao's bottle of pills over: "Junior sister, take a look for yourself."
Huang Ruyue grabbed the jade bottle, opened it, and rushed in with her consciousness. After scanning it once, she was stunned. She scanned it again in disbelief, and scanned it again. She still couldn't believe it, and even poured out one of the top-grade Gu Lingdan. The halo on it clearly showed that this was a top-grade pill.
"Did he really refine this? I don't believe it!" Huang Ruyue's voice was a little harsh.
"Junior sister, everything on the alchemy stage was recorded by the photo stone. If you don't believe me, you can go and verify it." The presiding alchemist was a little unhappy with the junior sister's questioning, but his tone was still relatively gentle, after all, considering that Huang Ruyue was younger than him.
"Ruyue." A voice came from the sky.
Huang Ruyue looked up and saw that it was her master, also a female alchemist. Huang Ruyue trembled and shouted: "Master, I..." She hoped that the master would tell her that all this was not true. How could she lose the alchemy battle?
"Ruyue, a temporary defeat is nothing. Come back with me and summarize the experience and lessons."
"Master, did I really lose?" Huang Ruyue was hit hard. Even her master thought that she was not as good as others?
The master in the sky looked at Gu Yao unhappily. She knew how proud her disciple was. If her disciple became depressed because of this, it would all be caused by the alchemist below. Between the disciple and Gu Yao, this outsider, which side did she choose?
"Follow the master back to retreat, let's go!"
If the Pavilion Master had not been there, she would not have easily forgiven this alchemist who had caused the disciple to have problems. Her disciple had always been her pride, how could she allow others to destroy him? After saying that, she forcefully waved her sleeves, rolled up Huang Ruyue and left. The figures of the two disappeared in the sky. Chi Changye
looked coldly at the direction where the master and disciple left. The master did not teach the disciple how to face failure and setbacks, but took his anger out on others. It was really a good master and disciple, with exactly the same temperament!
The head alchemist was also very embarrassed, not knowing how to explain to Gu Yao why Master Cui protected Junior Sister Ruyue. However, Gu Yao's attention was not on this. He pointed to the Soul-Clearing Grass that Huang Ruyue used to gamble on the other side, and said with shining eyes: "Now these spiritual herbs are all mine
" "Yes, yes, they all belong to Master Gu, Master Gu, keep them."
Gu Yao put the Soul-Clearing Grass and his own Blood Crystal Grass into the storage ring with satisfaction. He was about to go to see the alchemy furnace, and immediately looked at the head alchemist.
The latter hurriedly said: "I will take Master Gu to see the alchemy furnace. Don't worry, the top-grade pills will be purchased at the market price, and the best-grade pills will be higher than the market price. Master Gu will be satisfied with the result."
"That's good, let's go now. Can you bring a few friends?"
"No problem. "The head alchemist twitched his lips. He received another message from the Pavilion Master. The Pavilion Master must have taken a fancy to this ancient alchemist. If he could become the Pavilion Master's personal disciple, then Junior Sister Huang and Uncle Cui would not be able to do anything to the ancient alchemist.
So Gu Yao happily called Chi Changye and Chen Sheng who were waiting on the stage to go to the place where the alchemy furnace was stored with the head alchemist.
The Guiyuan Pavilion alchemists on the stage had two different reactions. In response, there were two groups. One group was shocked and admired Gu Yao's alchemy skills. It was impossible for him to cheat in front of so many people, and they were ashamed of their previous actions.
The other group was mostly Huang Ruyue's supporters. Although Gu Yao was better before, when they saw Huang Ruyue's incredulous questioning, their hearts immediately went to her. Like her master, they were angry at Gu Yao who made Huang Ruyue sad.
"Humph, you actually ran to our Guiyuan Pavilion's territory and stepped on our Guiyuan Pavilion's people. Damn it! Do you really think that there is no one in Guiyuan Pavilion?"
"You are kidding, who brought up the alchemy competition? I have inquired about it. It was Huang Ruyue who took a fancy to the blood crystal grass that Gu Yao Danshi had already bought. Since she couldn't snatch it by force, she proposed a duel. Gu Yao Danshi was forced to agree to the duel. "
"Yes, if you can't afford to lose, don't force others to come out to fight. Are the rules of the Guiyuan Pavilion's alchemy duel in vain?"
"Huang Ruyue has fought with so many alchemists on the alchemy duel. When did she ever consider other people's face after winning? Why does she want others to give way to her now? Is she made of colored glass and can't be touched? "
Chen Chan remained in a trance. Did she win the elixir contest so easily? Did she refine the top-grade elixir so easily? She even said that Gu Yao would offend Huang Ruyue without any effort. She
suddenly slapped her nephew on the back and said with a frown: "Did you know that your friend's alchemy skills were so amazing? "
It's more than just amazing. Huang Ruyue is a genius in Guiyuan Pavilion, so Gu Yao must be a peerless genius. Maybe he is particularly good at refining ancient spirit pills? Chen Chan convinced herself in her heart, but she still couldn't accept that such a peerless genius came from other inferior continents.
"Aunt," Chen Sheng was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, but he had to correct himself, "I didn't know at all. The pills that Gu Yao gave me before were basically high-grade and medium-grade," Chen Sheng added belatedly, "Could it be that Gu Yao kept all the top-grade pills for his own use? He only took out the high-grade and medium-grade pills? "
Chen Chan shook her head. Her nephew was a little silly. She suspected that Gu Yao was worried that his talent in alchemy would be exposed and people would be jealous of him, so he hid it.
However, it was a rare opportunity to see the alchemy furnace collected in the pavilion. Chen Chan shamelessly followed her nephew. Otherwise, such an opportunity would not be hers. She was still a disciple of the inner cabinet.
The presiding alchemist was named Shi. He led Gu Yao and his party into the tower. The tower covered a very large area and the space inside was also very large. Gu Yao looked around with interest. This tower itself was a magic weapon. I wonder how much effort it would take to refine such a tower.
Master Shi took them to the teleportation array on the ground floor, which was limited to teleporting to various places in the tower. Through the teleportation array, they appeared in one of the floors. An old man who had received the message from the Pavilion Master was waiting there. He opened the storeroom and introduced the alchemy furnaces collected by Guiyuan Pavilion to Gu Yao with a hint of satisfaction.
Although there were also middle-grade treasure-level alchemy furnaces, those that could be placed here also had their own advantages, such as helping the alchemy furnace to improve control, and reducing the spiritual power consumption of the alchemist, etc.
After the middle-grade treasures, there were high-grade treasures, and there were also top-grade treasures. This elder was originally an instrument master and preferred to refine alchemy furnaces.
"The alchemy furnace used by our Pavilion Master himself is a top-grade treasure alchemy furnace that is infinitely close to the level of a semi-immortal weapon. It is also the best among the top-grade treasure alchemy furnaces in the entire spiritual world. Boy, are you interested in these two top-grade treasure alchemy furnaces? Haha, each one is a priceless treasure, and it is not so easy to get one."
Gu Yao certainly knew how precious the top-grade treasures were. He hadn't heard the old man say that the Pavilion Master himself used top-grade treasure alchemy furnaces. Even if he could afford it, he would not be willing to steal their love. But for top-grade treasures, he should not be so cautious.
"What about the top-grade treasure? How much is this one?" Gu Yao picked up an alchemy furnace at hand and started playing with it. Among the top-grade alchemy furnaces, he caught his eye at first sight. The treasure was not as brilliant as the other ones and looked much more simple, but it caught his eye, so he followed his inner choice.
The old man's eyes bulged and he patted Gu Yao on the shoulder: "Good boy, you picked this one at first sight. Do you know who made this alchemy furnace?"
Gu Yao was surprised and said, "Could it be that it was made by the predecessor?"
"Haha, it's exactly my work. The kid who came last time didn't like the one I recommended to you. You must have good taste, haha!" The old man was very proud. He didn't tell Gu Yao that in fact the materials used in this alchemy furnace were not bad at all, because he originally wanted to challenge the best alchemy furnace, but still lacked something. Maybe he would succeed next time.
"Thank you, senior."
Although the old man said he gave Gu Yao a friendly price, it still made Gu Yao and Chi Changye empty their savings, including the dozen or so top-grade spirit stones. This was the result after the Gu Lingdan was purchased at a good price. Without the Gu Lingdan, they could not take the alchemy furnace away at all, and had to go out to collect spirit stones first.
But Gu Yao was still happy. A satisfactory alchemy furnace of the top-grade treasure level was hard to come by and could not be bought at any time, but spiritual stones could be earned at any time. Moreover, this level of alchemy furnace was really not available at this price outside. This made Gu Yao have a better impression of Guiyuan Pavilion, and he even felt grateful to Huang Ruyue. If Huang Ruyue had not proposed the alchemy competition, he would not have had the opportunity to get this alchemy furnace. Someone must have opened a backdoor for him. This was obviously the treatment given to the internal disciples of Guiyuan Pavilion.
