Chapter 124: Danwen, Second-Class Alchemist

The sand in the hourglass flowed out like water, and time passed slowly.

Lu Yun, who had refined the body-tempering pill in advance, had nothing to do for the time being, and slowly looked at the situation of other examinees around him.

His sight slowly moved away from the little girl Di Ruoling and fell on the examinee in compartment No. 3.

Examinee No. 3 was a young man about 25 years old. At this time, he was concentrating on controlling the temperature and refining and purifying the last spiritual medicine.

Lu Yun could tell at a glance that this was a jade muscle grass, which had a high requirement for the temperature.

If the temperature was low, it could not be refined.

If the temperature was high, it would be burned to ashes in an instant.

Therefore, if the fire control ability was not strong, it would not be possible to refine and purify it at all.

Examinee No. 3 obviously understood this and was extremely careful and cautious when operating.

However, his level was obviously relatively low. Even if he was careful and cautious, he could not avoid failure. With a slight sound, the jade muscle grass turned into ashes in the pill furnace.

Lu Yun shook his head slightly and his sight fell on the other examinees again.

The alchemy skills of this batch of examinees were uneven, which made Lu Yun shake his head.

"From this point of view, even if I don't use energy value to improve alchemy, my level is better than most people."

Finally, Lu Yun's sight fell on compartment 37.

The examinee in this compartment was Deng Yunhui.

"Hey, this guy's level is not bad." Lu Yun's face showed a trace of surprise.

Deng Yunhui, dressed in white, usually looks sloppy and lazy, but once he is engaged in alchemy, he seems to be a completely different person. Not only has he become more mature and stable, but his movements are also very elegant.

With his smooth operation, a yellow pill full of crystal luster took shape in the alchemy furnace.

"This guy, his alchemy level is probably the best among this batch of people."

...

Time passed slowly, and from time to time there was a pungent smell floating around, accompanied by exclamations.

Now the assessment is coming to an end. Failure in the last stage of pill coagulation means that all the previous hard work and efforts are completely in vain.

After the sand in the hourglass had completely drained, a staff member took out the pills of Lu Yun and other examinees one by one and presented them to the judges.

After a cup of tea, after the judgment of seven judges, Lu Yun, Deng Yunhui, Di Ruoling and thirteen others finally obtained the qualification to join the Alchemist Alliance and obtained the badge of first-grade alchemy.

"Hehe, what do you think, Grandpa? I said that refining first-grade pills is easy." After seeing Di Qing coming, Di Ruoling boasted.

Di Qing rubbed his granddaughter's head and scolded with a smile: "Seeing you are so proud, people who don't know would think you passed the second-grade alchemist assessment."

Then, he slowly walked in front of Lu Yun, glanced at Lu Yun with a hint of meaning, and said with a smile: "Little guy, you are very good. Not only are you gifted in martial arts, but your talent in alchemy is beyond the reach of others."

Lu Yun smiled faintly and said nothing.

At this time, Deng He and Jiang Wen also came over together.

"Lu Yun, a disciple of the Hall of Stars, greets Elder Jiang." Lu Yun bowed slightly to Jiang Wen.

"Congratulations, Lu Yun, you have passed the assessment of a first-grade alchemist." Jiang Wen smiled and said to Lu Yun, "Are you going to return to the Martial Academy to practice, or continue to stay in the Alchemist Alliance?"

"My strength has reached a bottleneck and needs to settle for a while, so I plan to stay in the Alchemist Alliance for a while."

"Well, that's fine?" Jiang Wen nodded, stroked his beard, and smiled, "Well, that's fine, you have already refined your true qi ten times!"

Hearing this, all those who passed the assessment and joined the Alchemist Alliance cast their eyes of shock and surprise at Lu Yun.

"Uh... this..." Lu Yun pondered for a moment, and after a moment of silence, he whispered, "Indeed... it's almost the same!"

After getting Lu Yun's 'recognition', Jiang Wen's old face immediately broke into a smile.

"Haha, not bad, not bad, only thirteen years old and ten times of Qi refinement..."

Patting Lu Yun's shoulder heavily, Jiang Wen left with satisfaction.

The conversation between Lu Yun and Jiang Wen completely stunned Di Ruoling, who was standing by and opened her seductive red lips in astonishment, staring blankly at the boy in front of her who was not even as tall as herself.

On the other side, Deng Yunhui, who only became focused when refining pills and was lazy and indifferent to everything at other times, was also looking at Lu Yun with shock in his eyes.

Everyone in the hall was staring at Lu Yun in a daze.

If it was said that Lu Yun could pass the first-grade alchemist assessment at the age of thirteen before, which could shock and amaze them.

Then now that he has already ten times of Qi refinement at the age of thirteen, it would really make everyone feel stunned and incredible.

Even if they were first-grade alchemists, they were at least warriors above the Tongmai realm. They naturally knew what ten times of Qi refinement meant, and they knew what ten times of Qi refinement at the age of thirteen meant.

This is no longer a genius, but a genius, or even the top genius.

"Oh my god, this little guy is good enough at alchemy, but I didn't expect that his talent in martial arts is even more unmatched by us. Is this going to make us live?" Everyone who passed the first-grade alchemist assessment looked at each other, then smiled bitterly and shook their heads.

"You guy, I didn't expect to hide it so deeply, but it made me more and more curious, sister." Di Ruoling turned her head and looked at Lu Yun, smiling and saying, her beautiful watery eyes full of curiosity.

Lu Yun felt the gazes around him, and saw Di Ruoling's beautiful face, full of curiosity and desire to explore. Not only was he unhappy, but he also felt helpless.

It's all the fault of that old guy. You insisted on exposing my martial arts realm. Now it's okay.

"Okay, okay. Next, the staff will issue you the first-level alchemist badges. After the badges are distributed, the thirteen people who have joined the alchemist alliance will stay." Di Qing waved his hand, and suddenly there was a female staff member carrying the alchemist badge. A jade plate came up with copper badges inside.

"Hehe, Lu Yun, isn't sister pretty?" Di Ruoling put her badge on her chest and made a famous sign, blinking her eyes, and said to Lu Yun.

His eyes flashed across the plump chest, and a flash of surprise flashed in Lu Yun's eyes, then he quickly retracted and said calmly: "Okay, it looks pretty good."

"Tsk, tsk, this is the first time I've seen someone as perfunctory as you." Di Ruoling tutted.

Lu Yun spread his hands and said helplessly: "I am already very serious."

At this time, Di Qing came over and saw a kind smile on his face after Lu Yun and others had put on their badges.

"The thirteen of you will be members of the Alchemist Alliance from now on. You will enjoy the power of the Alchemist Alliance and assume corresponding obligations. Someone will train you in the future. If it is inconvenient, you can also Receive a copy of the book 'Rights and Obligations of Alchemist Alliance Members' and study on your own."

"Okay, you can leave for now. Just come and report on time tomorrow morning."

Soon, everyone in the hall had left, leaving only Di Qing, Di Ruoling and a few others.

On the other side, Deng He was educating Deng Yunhui. Of course, criticism was followed by praise.

Seeing Lu Yun who hadn't left yet, Di Qing smiled and said, "Why, do you have anything else to do?"

Lu Yun smiled and nodded, and said softly: "Elder Di, I would like to ask if you can continue the assessment of the second-grade alchemist?"

After the words fell, Di Qing's smile, which was still smiling a moment ago, suddenly stopped.

"Are you planning to apply for the second-grade alchemist examination?"

Deng He from the side walked over, stared at Lu Yun with suspicion, and asked again: "Are you sure you want to take the second-grade alchemist assessment?"

"I want to try." Lu Yun nodded and smiled, with a confident smile on his face.

"Have you ever refined a second-grade elixir?"

Deng He's face looked a little solemn at this time. If the little guy in front of him can really pass the test of a second-grade alchemist, it will definitely cause a sensation in the Lingwu County branch. There are no second-grade alchemists of such an age in the entire Lingzhou. One hand.

Lu Yun pursed his lips, and finally said seriously: "I have never refined it, but as long as I have the recipe, I am 50% sure that I can refine a second-grade elixir."

Of course, he is still somewhat conservative about this data.

When he was in the martial arts academy, he used the energy value to upgrade his alchemy to the second level, and the progress reached an astonishing 99%.

With alchemy that has almost reached the limit of level two, refining a level two elixir is not a problem at all.

However, what Lu Yun thought was a very conservative figure shocked the two sixth-grade alchemists, Deng He and Di Qing.

This young man who had never refined a second-grade elixir, and had never even seen a second-grade elixir recipe, actually said that he was 60% sure that he could refine a second-grade elixir.

Are you trying to fool them, or are you treating these two sixth-grade alchemists as fools?

If it were anyone else, he would definitely be slapped flat by them and then thrown out of the door.

But the young man who is saying this now is a genius who has reached the tenth level of Zhenqi at the age of thirteen. He has just completed the assessment of a first-level alchemist and performed very well.

Such a talented person can tell lies? Will you do something you are not sure about?

Certainly not.

Therefore, when Lu Yun said that he was 60% sure that he could refine a second-grade elixir, they couldn't help but be shocked.

"60% sure?" Deng Yunhui, who was always a little lazy and felt like he would fall asleep at any time, turned his head slightly to look at Lu Yun, and couldn't help but whisper in his heart: "Maybe this guy really has a high probability of passing the level 2 alchemist. Assessment.”

"How about it? Can it work? If it doesn't work, I can wait for a while."

Looking at Di Qing and Deng He who never responded, Lu Yun couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

If he could become a second-grade alchemist first, it would save him a lot of time.

At the same time, you can also buy a second-grade elixir recipe for free.

Unfortunately, looking at the current situation, it seems to be a bit difficult.

Di Qing and Deng He looked at each other, then nodded heavily, as if they had made a decision.

"According to the rules of the Alchemist Alliance, a first-grade alchemist must at least settle for a period of time before he can take the second-grade alchemist assessment, and he needs to prepare his own pill recipes and elixirs."

Lu Yun's mood dropped every time a word came out of Di Qing's mouth. Especially when he heard that he had prepared a prescription for his own medicine, he instantly lost his guard.

Bring your own recipe?

What the hell is the Alchemist Alliance, so stingy?

Just as he was complaining crazily in his heart, Di Qing's next words made him excited again.

"However, with Elder Deng He and me as guarantees, we can directly allow you to take the second-grade alchemist assessment and provide you with pill recipes and elixirs."

Di Qing looked at Lu Yun, whose expression was constantly changing, and found it very interesting. A kind smile unconsciously appeared on his old face.

"Thank you Elder Di!"

"Thank you Elder Deng!"

Lu Yun solemnly expressed his gratitude to the two of them this time.

I had already given up completely, but I didn't expect that Liu Yin Hua Ming and another village would not only directly conduct the assessment, but also buy a second-grade elixir recipe and alchemy materials for free.

"Little guy, you have to behave well and don't let us two old guys fool around with you, otherwise we two old guys will be embarrassed if word spreads." Deng He smiled at Lu Yun.

"I will try my best... By the way, if I become a member of the Alchemist Alliance in the future, can I redeem the corresponding alchemy prescriptions?" Lu Yun asked the question he was most concerned about.

"Haha, yes, this is one of the rights enjoyed by members of the Alchemist Alliance. The Alchemist Alliance needs to refine enough elixirs in batches to provide them to Dayuan's army and martial arts academy and many other places. As a member of the Alchemist Alliance, , while enjoying the power, you must also bear corresponding obligations, and must complete a certain amount of elixir refining every month. Of course, it is not in vain to work for the Alchemist Alliance and refine a corresponding amount of elixir. Obtain corresponding contribution points, and with these contribution points, you can exchange for elixirs and elixirs in the Alchemist Alliance, and you can even use the contribution points to launch tasks to find the materials, treasures, etc. you need. "

Deng He looked at Lu Yun and said with a smile: "Of course, the premise is that you can bring out the corresponding treasures or things the other party needs as trading items."

"It sounds very good..." A smile gradually appeared on Lu Yun's face, thinking that the fire he needed in the future could be solved by directly issuing tasks, which would undoubtedly save him a lot of time.

"The procedures for the second-grade alchemist examination have been completed. Mr. Lu, follow me!"

In the distance, Di Qing waved to Lu Yun.

"Haha, go quickly!" Deng He turned his head and smiled at Lu Yun.

"Okay." Lu Yun nodded and walked quickly towards Di Qing.

Di Ruoling on the side wanted to follow, but was stopped by Deng He, who smiled and said: "The second-grade alchemist assessment is different from the first-grade alchemist assessment. Except for necessary personnel, no one else is allowed in so as not to disturb us. The other party, wait here.”

"Grandpa Deng, I'll just take a look from a distance and make sure I won't disturb Lu Yun." Di Ruoling said coquettishly, pulling on Deng He's sleeve.

"This is the rule of the Alchemist Alliance. Even I can't break it. Just wait and see!" Deng He smiled and shook his head.

Di Ruoling's pretty face turned anxious, and she immediately snorted dissatisfied: "Humph, partiality, didn't grandpa and you just break the rule once for Lu Yun, why can't we break it now?"

Hearing this, Deng He's face immediately turned red and he simply chose to remain silent.

"Hmph, don't watch it if you don't want to. What's the big deal? I'll be able to take the second-grade alchemist exam soon."

Then, when he walked to the side and saw the sleepy Deng Yunhui, he became even more angry. The jade legs under the lavender dress suddenly stretched out and kicked towards Deng Yunhui.

But at the critical moment, Deng Yunhui dodged slightly and easily avoided the kick.

"You little girl, you are still being unreasonable. It's not me who is stopping you. Why are you venting your anger on me?"

Deng Yunhui narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at the angry Di Ruoling, and said calmly.

"I just think you're unhappy, what's wrong?" Di Ruoling curled her lips, jumped up, and sat casually on a chair, tilting her head to the side without even looking at Deng Yunhui.

Half an hour later, Di Qing appeared from the gate.

"Old guy, has that guy Lu Yun succeeded?"

Deng He was the first to be unable to bear it and asked immediately.

On the other side, Di Ruoling and Deng Yunhui perked up, pricked up their ears almost at the same time, and turned their attention to the gate.

Di Qing shook his head slightly and didn't say a word for a long time.

This scene immediately made Deng He frown slightly.

"Failed?" After muttering to himself, he immediately relaxed his brows and said softly: "Failure is also normal. After all, martial arts talent is already so terrifying, and if alchemy talent is also so terrifying, it would be a bit too much for other people. ”

After a while, Lu Yun also appeared in the hall.

However, he noticed that something seemed wrong in the way everyone looked at him.

"Brother Lu Yun, a temporary failure is nothing. Don't be discouraged. This time is equivalent to accumulating experience. Next time, I will take the assessment again with my sister." Di Ruoling patted Lu Yun's shoulder gently, her tone a little Be gentle and try to comfort Lu Yun.

"Nani? Failed?" Lu Yun was immediately confused, and looking at Di Ruoling's solemn and serious expression, it seemed that such a thing was really happening.

At this time, Di Qing, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke slowly.

"Hey, this little guy's talent in alchemy is really amazing, even as good as his talent in martial arts. Hey..."

With a long sigh, he slowly took out a jade bottle from his sleeve, tilted it slightly, and a round and transparent elixir rolled out.

This is a Tongmai Dan, which is light yellow in color, with a faint crystal luster coming out of it. The most eye-catching thing is that there is a faint ripple on it, like spreading ripples.

"Dan pattern?!!"

Seeing the ripple-like ripples on the Tongmai Dan, Deng He exclaimed in surprise, ran over excitedly, snatched it from Di Qing's hand, and studied it carefully for a while.

No matter what grade of elixir it is, there are ordinary and high-quality elixirs.

Almost all alchemists can only refine ordinary pills.

Ordinary pills are also circulated in the market, and there are very few fine pills.

Only those alchemists who have extreme control over the temperature, high level of alchemy, and excellent alchemy skills can bring the medicinal properties of spiritual medicine to the extreme, and the color and luster of the refined pills will reach the peak, so that the pills will have pill patterns, that is, they will refine fine pills.

And now, someone told him that the fine Tongmai Pill with pill patterns in his hand was made by this boy who was only thirteen years old.

The key is that the other party has never refined a second-grade pill before, let alone a pill formula.

How is this possible?

"Old man, don't fool me, otherwise I will never let you go!"

Deng He slowly recovered from the shock and said to Di Qing righteously.

Di Qing rolled his eyes and snorted, "Why would I lie to you? It's all recorded inside. If you don't believe me, go check it out yourself."

"Okay, I'll go check it out. If I find out you lied to me, I'll beat the shit out of you!"

After threatening fiercely, Deng He disappeared into the hall.

Beside him, Di Ruoling's hand was still on Lu Yun's shoulder. She seemed to have forgotten about this matter, and her beautiful eyes kept blinking.

"Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?" She asked three shocking questions in her heart.

"Wei, are you okay?" Lu Yun gently pulled her sleeve, and then she reacted.

"Have you passed the second-grade alchemist assessment?"

"Yes!"

"Did the pills you made show danwen?"

"Danwen? It seems so!"

Di Ruoling looked at Lu Yun with a serious face, and then said angrily: "Why didn't you say it just now? Is it fun to laugh at me?"

Lu Yun spread his hands and said helplessly: "I just came out and you made me so confused that I don't know what to say!"

"Ah... I'm almost mad at you!" Di Ruoling stomped his feet in anger.

Lu Yun was stunned by the side.

Deng Yunhui was also stunned by the side.

After a while, Deng He appeared in the hall with a red face and laughed.

"Haha, a thirteen-year-old second-grade alchemist, and a second-grade alchemist who can make fine pills, the shame of our Lingwu County in the past will be gone from today."
