Gu Yao and Chi Changye did not ask about the situation outside. The reason why they told Jiang Yun how to get the door key was to tell him about the Dan Shen Mansion.
The door behind them closed, and a passage appeared in front of the two of them. Dozens of puppets appeared on both sides of the passage. The strength of the puppets was between the monarch level and the emperor level.
Gu Yao waved his hand and called out Mo Yu and Zi Zi, and rushed into the group of puppets with Chi Changye: "Quick battle and quick decision!"
"Roar!" Zi Zi shouted excitedly. He was not happy that Gu Yao did not let him fight against the Soul Devouring Demon Vine before, but he did not think that thing could restrain him. He could burn it all with a handful of black flames.
"Boom!"
"Crack!"
In the blink of an eye, the puppets in the front fell down one after another. Either the core hub was destroyed or the whole puppet was torn into pieces by the sword energy. The cubs were even more ruthless and simply burned the puppets to death.
Gu Yao watched helplessly and felt that it was a waste of energy.
In a few breaths, dozens of puppets were destroyed or fell. Gu Yao waved his hand and collected the puppets that were still intact into the small world. It was not realistic to use them for fighting because their strength was not high in their eyes now, but they could let them work for them in the small world. When they had a new house in the future, they could also be used to guard the house.
After all the puppets were solved, the second door appeared automatically, and when it opened, several things appeared out of thin air.
Sure enough, behind each door was an assessment level. If you passed the assessment, you would get a reward. This was no different from the previous situation, except that the difficulty of the assessment was increased.
Gu Yao didn't even look at it, and directly put it into the storage ring. He looked around vigilantly, took Zi Zi and Mo Yu, and stepped into the second door with Chi Changye. The door slammed shut behind them.
The scene in front of him suddenly changed. There were no puppets or palaces. Gu Yao found himself in a huge valley. Looking at himself again, he was no longer in the middle stage of the Immortal Emperor, but a young cultivator who had just entered the human immortal.
Looking around again, Chi Changye was gone, and so were Zi Zi and Mo Yu. Moreover, his consciousness could not contact them. This was the first time this had happened. You should know that they had a contract with him. Considering his current situation, Gu Yao had some vague guesses about the assessment of this level.
"Junior Brother Gu, you are here. Hurry up. The ancestor wants to select his personal disciples from among us disciples. We can't miss this great opportunity."
"Okay, let's go together." Gu Yao responded calmly and flew into the air with that senior brother. At the same time, there were other cultivators flying in the same direction, which was the huge platform in the middle of the mountain in front.
When they arrived at the place, Gu Yao and other cultivators landed together. There were hundreds of disciples gathered on the platform, and some disciples were rushing here. He thought, could these be disciples who were learning the art of alchemy? What kind of sect is this? So huge? Without using his divine sense to check, he could see that there were many fairy fields on this mountain, with countless fairy herbs growing in them.
Soon the disciples arrived, and at this time a tall figure appeared above the platform: "Sou Jing! This time I am selecting disciples on behalf of the master. The assessment is not difficult, but it is difficult to meet the master's requirements. The first stage is to refine and quench all the fairy herbs distributed to you, and the less impurities the better. Start!"
Small platforms rose in front of them one by one, with their own alchemy furnaces, and boxes of fairy herbs fell in front of them. Seeing other disciples eager to start the furnace, Gu Yao also did the same thing, wondering if these disciples had just come into contact with alchemy. How could he, an imperial-level alchemist, be mixed up with a group of disciples who were just starting out?
A thought flashed through his mind, and he knew very well that the so-called assessment to recruit disciples was not aimed at the hundreds of disciples present, but only at him. If he failed such a simple assessment, he didn't know what would be waiting for him.
Gu Yao took a serious attitude, identified the immortal grass, put it into the alchemy furnace for refining and quenching, until no more impurities could be removed.
When all the disciples completed this task, the tall figure said: "Those who fail will be kicked out, and those who stay will continue to participate in the second round of assessment."
As soon as the voice fell, many screams and pleas for rescue sounded above the platform. Gu Yao saw that many disciples disappeared from the platform. Looking again, their figures had appeared at the foot of the mountain. They couldn't fly over even if they wanted to. There was a force suppressing them
.
Only one-tenth of them stayed, and the number of people suddenly dropped from hundreds to dozens. The disciples who stayed did not look proud, but became more cautious. Because the previous extraction and quenching requirements were extremely high, the disciples who stayed almost all did their best.
"The second level is to refine ordinary pills. Those who cannot reach the ultimate level will be eliminated."
Gu Yao's eyes became subtle. He wondered if other alchemists who entered the mansion would participate in such an assessment. Ordinary pills, how long have those veteran emperor-level alchemists not touched the lowest-level ordinary pills? Maybe even they themselves can't remember clearly.
Even Gu Yao himself, as he continued to move up, was exposed to higher and higher-level pills. Because he was promoted too quickly, he didn't have time to go back and sort them out. He thought that he should have time.
Forget it, this assessment will be regarded as a review for him.
The first kind of pill material appeared on the platform. Gu Yao thought for a while and started to refine the pill. He didn't neglect it because it was an ordinary pill.
All the pills that came out of the first furnace were ultimate pills.
Two disciples who did not meet the requirements disappeared on the platform.
The second kind of elixir material appeared on the platform again, and the remaining disciples continued to concentrate on refining the elixir.
The third kind...
Until the 99th kind of ordinary elixir, only Gu Yao was left on the platform. He had no time to pay attention to the situation of other disciples, because he had never touched some ordinary elixirs. How to refine these materials into elixir was much more difficult for him, and he had to ensure that there were no mistakes and finally the best elixir came out of the furnace.
From the first furnace of pills, Gu Yao kept his mind highly focused. At this point, he felt tired, mentally exhausted, but he didn't dare to relax at all. His brain was working at a high speed, constantly deducing the pill formula. On the surface, it seemed that only a quarter of an hour had passed, but he had deduced dozens of pill formulas in his mind. Finally, he decided to keep one, then he took a deep breath and started refining
the pill.
With a "hum", the last furnace of pills was completed. Gu Yao breathed a sigh of relief, sweat beads oozed from his forehead, and nine top-grade pills flew out of the pill furnace. The next moment, Gu Yao's eyes went dark, and he escaped from this level of assessment.
"Xiaoyao!"
Chi Changye's concerned voice rang in Guyao's ears. Guyao opened his eyes and saw Chi Changye and Zizi Moyu surrounding him. It seemed that he was the only one who went in.
"It's okay. I passed the test. It was not difficult, but I was too tired. I refined ninety-nine kinds of ordinary elixirs without stopping for a moment, and I had to deduce the elixir formula temporarily. Fortunately, I was the only one who went in." It seemed that his body was left outside. Chi Changye and Zizi were worried about him and protected him in the middle.
"I'm glad you're okay. You take a rest and we'll continue." Chi Changye said with concern. He knew that he could not help much in this kind of test for alchemists, and Gu Yao had to fight for it himself. This was what he had expected before coming.
Gu Yao nodded, then took out the pill and swallowed it, closing his eyes to recover.
It didn't take long for Gu Yao to recover to his peak state, and he felt more energetic. The previous test was not without reward for him. He had been immersed in the research and refining of ordinary pills. He found some problems in the refining of imperial pills, and he also had a direction to solve them.
Sure enough, the foundation is still very important.
"Okay, let's go." Gu Yao stood up, called Chi Changye, Zizi and Mo Yu, and continued to move forward.
When the third door opened, the reward for the second level also arrived. Although Gu Yao did not look at it carefully and threw it directly into the storage ring, he could still see the general situation after a quick glance. The rewards included elixirs and elixir books.
Although Gu Yao valued the latter more, the former elixir, if he was not mistaken, should be a very rare imperial-level elixir. It is unknown how long this ancient mansion has been preserved, but the elixir is preserved as if it has just come out of the oven.
Did the predecessor who had the elixir god before him fall or leave this world? Gu Yao was very curious and even guessed whether this predecessor had ever had anything to do with the elixir pavilion? Could it be the previous owner of the little elixir?
On the other side, Liu Chengfeng also came out of the illusion and said with joy: "The senior Alchemy God is indeed ingenious. He actually asked the challengers to
refine the lowest level of ordinary pills. Fortunately, I have not slacked off in these years. Finally, I have fulfilled my mission and refined 87 kinds of top-grade ordinary pills.
"
"Master Liu Dan has profound alchemy skills. In my opinion, no one in the fairy, demon and monster world can beat Master Liu Dan."
"Not bad, not bad. Master Liu Dan considers himself second, and no one dares to claim to be first. Haha, we are all thanks to Master Liu Dan."
Liu Chengfeng was in a good mood: "I will adjust my breath and see what the reward is later. If it is helpful to you, that would be the best." He also didn't think that any of the alchemists who came in could surpass him.
Several big men looked at each other. They were in a good mood. The better things Liu Chengfeng got, the greater their gains. Naturally, they hoped that Liu Chengfeng would be the biggest winner.
Although the ancient alchemist was indeed extremely talented and made them look at him with new eyes, he was too young and there were too many variables.
He was not as reliable as Liu Chengfeng. Su Heqing looked unwillingly at the reward that fell into his hands. It was just a few Xuan-level immortal pills. It was of no help to him at all. He didn't even see a book on alchemy.
"Damn it, I didn't expect such a perverted test. Why is it different from the information I got? Is the information I got wrong? Or did the owner of the mansion deceive me?"
Su Heqing came here with full confidence this time, because he had entered the mansion of an emperor-level alchemist. The alchemist had entered here and left some information, which was very useful to Su Heqing. He got the key to the first level very quickly, but the test of this level was very different from what the alchemist said.
