Chapter 661
byIf a spiritual pill produces pill patterns, its value will double. Even with the means of the big man, a top-grade spiritual-level alchemist, he can only occasionally refine one or two pills with pill patterns, and that still has to be in the case of extremely good luck and excellent state.
As for the legendary pill cloud, he hasn’t even seen it.
Holding this spiritual pill, the big man with a beard was silent for a long time.
An hour later, Yang Kai finished refining the pills.
Five portions of materials, a total of four spiritual pills were refined, and the last portion of materials failed during the refining process – Yang Kai did it on purpose.
At this moment, both the big man and the woman were looking at Yang Kai stupidly, regarding him as a celestial being.
“Master, does this guy have a special way to maintain his appearance? Otherwise, why does he look only twenty years old?”
It doesn’t seem so. This should be his real age. Amazing. Why is he so amazing? As he said this, he melancholy looked at the woman with a look of frustration on his face.
Master, can you stop looking at me like this? I’ve already worked very hard.” Mina felt very wronged.
Her alchemy talent is also quite outstanding. She is a well-known existence within a radius of several thousand miles. Several major forces in the vicinity are trying hard to recruit her as their guest alchemist. Because of this talent Mina usually has a high opinion of herself. However, her pride wasBoom broke in the front of these four spiritual pills.
The master and apprentice muttered edfor a while. Yang Kai didn’t’d deliberately eavesdrop. After waiting for a while, he asked “Have I passed the test?”
When the big man heard this, he was startled and hehe laughed. His smile was hearty and amiable. He nodded and said, “Passed, definitely passed.”
“Then my jade token…”
“Don’t worry, the jade token will definitely be given to you. But before that, you need to meet someone. Wait a moment. I’ll go and call him over!” As he said this, the big man rushed out.
Suddenly, there were only Yang Kai and the woman left in the room.
Yang Kai was speechless.
“You really make people look at you with new eyes.” The woman let out a heartfelt exclamation and generously stretched out a hand. There was no “Get to know each other again. My name is Mina, a top-grade alchemist. I’m also a member of this alchemist branch.
“Yang Kai.” Yang Kai chuckled and gently shook hands with her.
“Where are you from?” Mina asked curiously.
“The west.”
Mina looked at him, pursed her lips and smiled, “Forget it, I won’t ask. You look so vigilant.”
The west is a vast snow-capped mountain. Yang Kai said he came from that side, which is obviously a bit perfunctory.
“By the way, why did you change the configuration of five materials just now?”
“Isn’t that your test?” Yang Kai was stunned.
Mina slowly shook her head: “That’s the best configuration I think, but after seeing you change it, it seems to be easier to refine. Who taught you to do this?”
“Intuition…” Yang Kai felt a pang of guilt. He didn’t think much just now. He thought the other party deliberately put the wrong medicinal materials to examine his foundation. It turns out that’s not the case.
“Why did you do this?” The Danfang taught to me by my master is not like this. Could it be that my master’s danfang is wrong? Mina frowned.
Yang Kai thought about it and didn’t hide it. He carefully explained it. Mina listened with shining eyes and kept nodding. She suddenly felt a lot.
The two were discussing the correctness and rigor of the pill formula in the room. Outside the house, the big man and another man stopped to listen, and the more they listened, the more surprised they looked.
Because for that pill formula, even they had never thought of changing it. But after changing it, they found that it was much easier to use than the original one.
At least, if using Yang Kai’s method to refine, many unnecessary failures can be avoided, the probability and quality of forming pills can be increased. And the medicinal efficacy in the medicinal materials can be fully exerted.
“Where did you find this kid?” the man asked, looking at the bearded big man.
“He came to the door by himself.” The big man shrugged. “Found a treasure, right?”
The other person did not deny it, pushed the door open casually, and walked in.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Yang Kai quickly turned his head and looked. I saw the bearded big man and another old man with an immortal air walked in together.
Mina quickly introduced to Yang Kai: “This is Elder Du. Elder Du is the owner here and a Saint-level low-grade alchemist.”
Yang Kai couldn’t help but feel respectful and quickly saluted.
Du Wan smiled and nodded: “Little friend, you don’t have to be polite. In the future, everyone will be a family.”
“This is my master, and you have met him. He is a Spirit-level high-grade alchemist.”
Ye Xiong grinned and smiled at Yang Kai.
“Sit down.” Elder Du motioned.
After everyone was seated, Mina brought out a few cups of fragrant tea from somewhere and offered them. Old Du took a sip and then smiled and said, “I already understand the purpose of little friend. Being able to refine spirit-level pills indeed qualifies you to have your own jade token. I will present the jade token representing the identity of the alchemist later.”
“Thank you.” Yang Kai nodded.
Can I ask, where is little friend’s apprenticeship?
Asking like this, Du Wan looked at Yang Kai with burning eyes.
After listening to Ye Xiong’s report before, Du Wan only vaguely felt that this young man was a bit extraordinary. Just now, he also heard many of his unique insights at the door, and Du Wan immediately saw Yang Kai’s extraordinariness.
Even he didn’t understand the profound meaning of those insights. How could a brat understand them?
The only possibility is that there is someone behind him.
Du Wan really wanted to know which expert could teach such a disciple.
At a young age, the cultivation base has reached the peak of mind wandering and even has the level of a spirit-level alchemist. This backstage is amazing. Maybe it’s some earth-shattering big shot.
Although Old Du is a saint-level alchemist with a respected status, there are still some alchemists above him, not to mention those monsters who lived in seclusion in the deep mountains and old forests all year round. These old monsters may not appear once in dozens or hundreds of years, but each of them is a guy with supernatural powers. making it impossible to guess.
Moreover, these old monsters with astonishing cultivation bases are extremely protective of their own. It is very likely that some of their successors will come out of their secluded places and experience the world. Their successors can often shine with a brilliance that amazes the world in just a few years and will soon become famous on the mainland.
The young man named Yang Kai in front of him is very suspicious.
He has the standard of a spirit-level alchemist, but he is not recorded in the Alchemist Association at all, and he doesn’t even have a jade token. This is clearly because he has just come out of some deep mountain forest not long ago.
Elder Du looked at Yang Kai, as if seeing a huge monster hidden behind him. He couldn’t help but be cautious and naturally wanted to figure out Yang Kai’s true identity.
Ye Xiong and Mina also looked at him with shining eyes, obviously very interested in this topic.
“Mentor?” Yang Kai smiled bitterly and shook his head. “I don’t have a mentor, and no one has taught me.”
“No master… Hehe.” Elder Du smiled slightly and didn’t take it seriously. It would be strange if he could easily dig out the backstage behind him. Yang Kai’s words instead further confirmed Elder Du’s guess and felt that his background was extraordinary.
However, this kind of statement that there is no silver three hundred taels here is too naive.
Young people really don’t know how to hide themselves.
This kind of successor with a mysterious background will never publicize their master’s school and affiliation when traveling in the world. But if you can establish a good relationship with such a person, maybe you can establish contact with their master’s school and thus obtain huge benefits.
A hundred years ago, there was a not-too-strong power that befriended such an inheritor who came out for training. Ten years later, this power had a feud with another power and suffered crazy retaliation and suppression from the other side, with heavy casualties. But overnight, that hostile power was actually wiped out and disappeared from the Tongxuan Continent.
As a Saint-level alchemist, no one would come to trouble Du Lao, and he would never have a feud with others. Naturally, he had no intention of relying on the might of others. What he valued was the alchemy methods of the person who taught Yang Kai. To be able to teach someone like Yang Kai, that person must be the top alchemist.
Du Lao had been trapped at the bottleneck of the lower Saint level for many years. If he could get the guidance of a master at this time, perhaps he could break through to the middle Saint-level alchemist in one fell swoop.
“Then where does the little friend plan to stay?” Du Lao asked amiably.
“I don’t know either. I’ll stay in Boulder City for a while for the time being.” Yang Kai shook his head. “I just came out of a very remote place not long ago and I’m very unfamiliar with the world here. To tell the truth I’m not afraid of Du Lao’s joke. I haven’t even heard the names of many powers here, and the Alchemist Association is the first time I’ve heard of it.”
Du Wan’s seemingly turbid eyes couldn’t help but light up, shining with sharpness, and he nodded with a smile: “Good, good, good. It doesn’t matter. As long as the little friend is still in Boulder City, he can come to ask me at any time. If there is anything he doesn’t understand, I can answer it for you.”
Yang Kai’s expression was strange. He didn’t know why this Saint-level alchemist was being so kind to him.
“Old Du, can’t we let him live in the Alchemist Association?” Mina suddenly suggested.
Old Du smiled and said, “That depends on whether Little Friend has that intention.”
“I can live here?” Yang Kai was astonished.
Mina explained, “As long as you are an alchemist, you can live here. In the entire Alchemist Association, basically only the three of us live here all the time. The others have defected to nearby forces. Occasionally, there are also some alchemists from other places who will come here to stay and rest. So it’s relatively quiet here. If you have no place to go, you can live here. Well, living here, we can exchange alchemy techniques, which will be beneficial to everyone. How about it?”
Obviously, Mina really hoped that Yang Kai would stay. After talking with him for a while just now, she had already benefited a lot, so naturally she wanted to communicate more with Yang Kai.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you all.” It was hard to refuse such enthusiasm. Mina was looking at him expectantly, and Yang Kai also felt embarrassed to refuse. Moreover, this Old Du and Ye Xiong didn’t have the slightest bit of ill will.
“Little Friend is being too polite.” Old Du smiled and said.
“But I should leave soon.” Yang Kai added.
All according to little friend’s wish.” Du Wan said like this, Youdaoplaceholder0 out and took out a jade token and pushed it over. “This is the identity nameplate of my Alchemist Association. With this thing, you can enjoy preferential treatment in any shop opened by the association. If you encounter danger, take out this jade token, and generally speaking, you can turn danger into safety.
Thank you, Old Du.” Yang Kai took the jade token, infused true essence to feel it for a while, and his face was delighted. There was a mysterious energy hidden in this jade token, which made the person who felt it easily understand what level of alchemist the owner of the jade token was.”
