Chapter 97 Calculation
"Is Fellow Taoist Tie Zhen a third-level alchemist?" Yu Xianglan asked in surprise.
Wei Zhong nodded: "I am not talented, but I am an alchemy master. I personally refined the elixir in my Taoist friend's hands." How many?"
Wei Zhong said with a smile: "It depends on how many elixirs your sect has."
"This matter is of great importance. I also ask fellow Taoist Tie Zhen to give me some time from the Qingmu Sect so that we can discuss it."
"Of course, Hall Master Yu can take this bottle of elixir to the alchemist of your sect. Palm your eyes to see if what Pindao said is true."
Yu Xianglan said goodbye respectfully.
Wei Zhong watched the other party leave with his bottle of mid-grade Haoyuan Dan without the slightest worry.
Now that Tantai Lin is still here, he would not dare to steal this elixir unless his life is at stake.
And even without Tantai Lin's deterrent, the other party would not do such an unwise thing just because of his status as a third-level alchemist.
With a long-term future and a bottle of elixir, Wei Zhong believes that the Qingmu Sect can still distinguish the important from the important.
Outside, Zhao Bai and Yao Zhengsheng were staying in a secret room, facing an ancient bronze mirror.
“Got it!”
“Good luck waiting for you...”
"But..."
······
There was a burst of grayness on the mirror surface, and the picture suddenly disappeared.
Yao Zhengsheng looked at the ancient mirror, his face gloomy as if water was about to drip.
The two left the secret room in silence and came to the outside world, only then finally burst out full of anger.
"The Shadow Moon Sect accepted so much filial respect from my Qingmu Sect, but at the critical moment, they gave up. This strange Nascent Soul was dominating our sect, and the other party was not willing to send a Nascent Soul to have a look. "
Zhao Bai looked at the hysterical Yao Zhengsheng and sighed.
As the "younger brother" of the Shadow Moon Sect, the Qingmu Sect will present a batch of spiritual stones and spiritual objects to it every few years in order to seek help from the other party at critical moments.
For example, the last time the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountains was developed, Ruowu Taoist took action, which successfully allowed the Qingmu Sect to establish a foothold in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountains.
However, for some reason this time, the Shadow Moon Sect had no intention of taking action.
The other party's argument was that this Yuanying had no murderous intention, but just entrusted the Qingmu Sect to do some things, and there was no need for the Yuanying of the sect to take action. Just let Qingmu Sect take care of him.
"Are you waiting for me?"
Yao Zhengsheng felt a burning pain on the left side of his face, but the memory of those two slaps was still fresh in his mind.
As a proud man trained by the sect, he had never suffered such injustice. Yao Zhengsheng wished he could kill the person who humiliated him with a thousand knives, but because he was in the Nascent Soul realm, he could only swallow his anger.
Zhao Bai also understood the other party’s dilemma and said:
"Zhengsheng, don't be impulsive."
Yao Zhengsheng took a deep breath:
"Uncle Zhao, I understand.
Now we can only wait for the master to come back before making any decisions. There is no hope for the Shadow Moon Sect, and we have to rely on ourselves to resolve this difficulty."
Seeing that Yao Zhengsheng calmed down, Zhao Bai also breathed a sigh of relief.
While the two were talking, Yu Xianglan happened to turn around.
"Uncle Yu, did that person accept the gift we gave him?"
Yu Xianglan shook his head.
"Could it be that the other party dislikes me for being too shabby? That's right. It's normal to look down upon the various spiritual materials recorded in the files..."
" No, you might as well take a look at this elixir before talking.”
After saying this, Yu Xianglan handed out the elixir bottle. The two opened the cork and immediately saw the ten golden Haoyuan elixirs inside.
"Mid-grade Haoyuan Pill?"
Yao Zhengsheng was the most excited. Now that he has entered the middle stage of pill formation, he suffers from not having enough matching spiritual pills, so he can only use Taking the low-grade Haoyuan Dan slowly advances his cultivation.
If I continue to practice like this, I don’t know how many years and months it will take to advance to the late stage of Dan Formation.
"Junior sister Yu, where did you get this elixir?" Zhao Bai asked the key point in one sentence.
Yu Xianglan replied: "This elixir was made by fellow Taoist Tie Zhen, who was a third-level alchemist, and his level was extremely high, much higher than that of Qi Yun.
Even Senior Brother Duan When he was alive, he was probably only between two people."
"I didn't expect that this person was actually an alchemy master, so it would be a bit difficult for me to bribe him with such a magical elixir... "..." Zhao Bai showed an inexplicable depressed expression on his face.
"What does Tie Zhen mean by taking out the elixir?" Yao Zhengsheng asked.
Yu Xianglan straightened her expression: "The other party wants to use the elixir to complete a transaction with my Qingmu Sect, exchanging the elixir for the elixir."
"I knew it," Zhao Bai made a fist with his right hand and punched the palm of his left hand. "The other party will definitely not give up these elixirs easily after seeing the dossier.
But I didn't expect that the other party did not grab it openly, but chose to Use the elixir in exchange."
While everyone was sighing, Yi Liu came over.
Yao Zhengsheng took a middle-grade Haoyuan Pill and handed it to the other party:
"Junior Brother, let Master Qi Yun hold his palm to see if there is anything fishy about this pill?"
Although Yi Liu was a little confused, he still reached out to take it and rushed towards the Alchemy Palace.
Yao Zhengsheng looked at the other party's leaving figure with a hint of gloom in his eyes.
"Zhengsheng, what are you going to do?" Yu Xianglan asked.
Yao Zhengsheng put his hands behind his back:
"Let Master Qi test it first. If there is no problem with the elixir, then go ahead and fight for it and see if you can entrust him to help me, Qingmu." Zong alchemy
In this way, the sect will suffer less losses than directly exchanging elixirs for elixirs. "
"I'm afraid it's difficult. Since the other party has proposed a transaction method, it is definitely not targeting ordinary elixirs. Maybe the target is those ten thousand-year elixirs. "
As soon as these words came out, the three of them fell into silence.
Yao Zhengsheng even regretted handing over the complete file to the other party. Now this is really attracting the wolf into the house.
On the way to the Dan Palace, Yi Liu met his former junior brother, the Seventh True Successor Shen Yuqi
"Uncle Master Yi, I wonder what your purpose is in coming to the Alchemy Hall?"
Yi Liu fell from the sky: "Senior Brother Master asked me to come to Alchemist Qi Yun to identify an elixir."
' Qi Yun, looking for Qi Yun again. ’
Shen Yuqi’s face was a little gloomy. In the dark night, Yi Liu did not notice the other party’s emotional changes.
Since Duan Delong passed away, Dandian suddenly fell into a leaderless situation.
Without a third-level alchemy master, the Qingmu Sect suddenly fell into a shortage of high-level cultivation elixirs. They could only consume the sect's inventory while purchasing them from the Yunji Chamber of Commerce.
At that time, Duan Delong’s disciple Shen Yuqi was just an ordinary second-level alchemy master and could not support the big sign of the Alchemy Palace.
A few years later, Qi Yun suddenly emerged and successfully refined a third-level low-grade Haoyuan Dan, becoming the new third-level alchemy master of the Qingmu Sect and the only third-level alchemy master of the Qingmu Sect.
For a time, it attracted a large number of alchemists in the Alchemy Palace to join in, hoping to gain experience in breaking through to third-level alchemy masters.
Some people even recommended the other party to become the master of the Dan Palace.
Shen Yuqi was worried that his master's inheritance would be taken away by the other party, so he begged the master's brother.
In the end, Qi Yun's foundation-building cultivation was not enough to form an elixir, so he rejected the other party's proposal to become the palace master.
Because of this, the position of the master of the Qingmu Sect Dan Palace has been vacant for ten years. Shen Yuqi's idea was that with Qi Yun's qualifications, it was very difficult to advance to the foundation building level, and he might not be able to reach the threshold of forming a core in his lifetime.
'In the Alchemy Palace, I am the only one who has the hope of forming an alchemy. When the time comes to advance to the level of Dan-formation and third-level alchemy master, sooner or later the position of the Lord of the Alchemy Palace will be mine. . ’
"Alchemist Qi Yun is refining a furnace of elixirs in the alchemy room. Uncle Yi is coming with me." After saying this, Shen Yuqi walked away.
The two came to a ground channel and met Qi Yun himself.
The other party still looked as young as Wei Zhong had seen him before. When he saw Yi Liu and Shen Yuqi coming together, he showed some doubts:
“I didn’t know that Elder Yi was here. What's the matter? "
After Yi Liu was promoted to Dan Dan, because there was no suitable position for the palace master in the sect, he was given the position of elder.
"There is a pill here. I hope Master Qi can help me take a look."
Yi Liu took out the elixir he got from Yao Zhengsheng.
Qi Yun reached out and took it, gently scraped some powder from the elixir with his fingernails, and sniffed it lightly at the tip of his nose.
He said: "Haoyuan Pill is still of the middle grade."
Qi Yun carefully looked at the elixir in his hand, and the look in his eyes became brighter and brighter:
< br>
"I wonder where Elder Yi got this elixir?"
Yi Liu replied: "Master Qi, don't worry about it. Even I have never learned about the origin of this elixir. Master just commented on the elixir. Let the poor man go back and talk about it."
Qi Yun did not ask but said:
"The body of this elixir is round and shiny, and the inside of it is also rich in elixir fragrance, without any trace of it. The question is the best among the medium-grade Haoyuan Dan.”
Speaking of this, Qi Yun took the scraped powder and closed his eyes to taste it deeply.
"The quality of this elixir is far beyond my level. Perhaps only Master Duan can compare with it."
"In this case, I will use this to restore my life."
Yi Liu took the elixir, handed it over and left.
Shen Yuqi’s eyes flickered when he saw the other party leaving.
During the day, the sect had just encountered a disaster, and now the head brother asked Qi Yun to come and test the Hao Ling Dan. If there was no connection at all, Shen Yuqi would not believe it.
"Is there anything else going on, Fellow Daoist Shen?" Qi Yun asked when he saw that he was stunned in place and never left.
Shen Yuqi turned to look at the other party, gradually having an idea in his mind.
"Does Master Qi know that a third-level alchemy master came to our sect today?"
"A third-level alchemy master, this happened. Could it be that this master refined this elixir? ?”
Qi Yun’s eyes reflected the flames in the furnace.
Shen Yuqi knew that the other party was addicted to alchemy and did not know about the sect's strange affairs, so he must have been unaware of the disaster during the day.
The words of the third-level alchemist were only conjectured by Shen Yuqi himself, and he did not know the details.
"Exactly, otherwise Elder Yi would not have asked fellow Taoist to check the elixir."
Hearing that a third-level alchemy master had arrived from the sect, Qi Yun immediately wanted to discuss the matter with him. Talk about it.
“Do you know where the alchemist lives now, fellow Daoist Shen?”
Shen Yuqi shook his head: "How can I possibly know this kind of news? You might as well ask the head brother."
Leaving these words, Shen Yuqi turned around and left.
‘The two people who brought trouble to the Aoki Sect must be people that no one in the Aoki Sect can afford to offend.
As long as Qi Yun is informed about the third-level alchemy master, no matter what actions the other party takes, the head brother will be displeased.
What's more, the head brother also lost face in the opponent's hands. ’
As for whether this matter would involve him, Shen Yuqi had no worries at all.
This is the elixir that Yi Liu asked Qi Yun to identify. This association is definitely normal, and he is just giving guidance.
Sure enough, after learning about the third-level alchemy master, Qi Yun put down his alchemy work and went directly to the main peak to find the leader Yao Zhengsheng.
At this moment, Yao Zhengsheng was discussing with the three people how to deal with the elixir transaction.
“Since there is no problem with the elixir, let’s talk to that fellow Taoist Tiezhen.”
Several people immediately rushed to the flower courtyard.
After a while, the five people sat at the same table.
"Comrades from the Qingmu Sect, how have you considered my proposal?"
Yao Zhengsheng raised the tea cup in his hand:
"I wonder if fellow Taoist Tie Zhen can Accept the alchemy commission? ”
Wei Zhong chuckled softly: "I will leave your sect in the next few days. How many elixirs can be refined in this little time? You'd better give up.
It is better to say that your sect has the courage to give in. I took the elixir and left a promise to return it later?"
A few people looked at each other, knowing that this way would not work.
Wei Zhong asked: "Since you are here, you must also know the quality of the elixir I am making."
Then he took out another bottle of elixir.
"High-grade Hao Yuan Dan, I hope you will taste it."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. When they opened the pill bottle, they discovered that it was the top grade Hao Yuan Dan, and it seemed to be of comparable quality. good.
A few people were breathing quickly.
High-grade Haoyuan Dan corresponds to the late stage of Dan formation. There are two late stage Dan formations in Qingmu Sect.
They are the former sect leader Nie Yuansen and the Supreme Elder Lian Chengjue.
Because these two people lack cultivation pills, their cultivation is very slow. If they can get a large amount of high-grade Haoyuan Pills from this person.
Then these two mainstays of the sect both hope to reach the peak of Dan Jie before their longevity ends, and have a chance to attack the Nascent Soul.
For an Alchemy Sect like the Qingmu Sect, this is a rare opportunity for advancement in a thousand years.
A few people looked at the elixir bottle containing the high-grade Haoyuan Dan, and it was difficult to take their eyes away from it for a moment.
Yao Zhengsheng even had the urge to kill and seize the treasure, but his reason soon brought him back to his senses.
This alchemist cannot be offended, not only cannot he be offended, but he must be well served.
If we can maintain the bond with him, the Qingmu Sect will no longer have to worry about high-level elixirs for a long time in the future.
"Fellow Taoist, you might as well tell me directly, how many elixirs do you need from our Qingmu Sect?"
Wei Zhong sat cross-legged and straightened his body slightly: "I don't want much, just a few thousand-year-old plants. Just the elixir and the thousand-year-old elixir."
'It is indeed here! ’
Yao Zhengsheng did not show the slightest expression of surprise on his face. Instead, Yi Liu said: "Impossible. How can a mere third-order Haoyuan Dan be exchanged for the ten thousand-year elixir in my sect?"
Yao Zhengsheng's face was full of surprise. With a sullen expression: "Junior Brother Yi?"
Yi Liu caught a glimpse of his angry face and immediately fell silent.
Yao Zhengsheng handed over his hand: "The matter of ten thousand year spiritual objects is of great importance. We still need to discuss it with the elders of the sect. I would like to trouble fellow Taoist Tie Zhen to wait for a while."
Wei Zhong nodded and the others left. .
Putting away the two bottles of elixirs on the table, Wei Zhong knew in his heart that the matter was at least half done.
The top-grade Haoyuan Dan Qingmu Sect cannot refuse. The only question is how many good things can be obtained from it.
