Chapter 213 - 213: 59: The Glorious Future of the Great Flame 2
Alchemists were always a reclusive bunch; without sufficient chips, they couldn’t be bothered.
“It’s fine; just give me their information.”
Zhao Huai waved his hand, not minding the issue at all.
“Alright, the third floor of the attic is an area designated for alchemists. You should be able to find the alchemist you’re looking for there.”
Upon receiving the address, Zhao Huai went up the stairs and arrived at the third floor.
When he arrived at the specified room, he knocked on the door.
But there was no response.
He had no choice but to push the door open.
As soon as the door was pushed open, Zhao Huai smelled a strong fragrance of medicine in the air.
It smelt so good that he deliberately took a deeper breath. But for some reason, he began to feel a bit dizzy.
“It’s poisonous, don’t breathe it in!”
A desperate cry came from inside the room, sounding quite helpless.
But it was already too late. Zhao Huai’s body had collapsed, and he passed out.
“What the hell, such a fragrant scent is actually poison…” After an unknown amount of time, Zhao Huai regained consciousness in a daze and muttered quietly, completely speechless.
When he opened his eyes, he saw a disheveled, dirty old face in front of him. It startled him awake!
Looking at the surroundings, this was an alchemy room.
Things were scattered all around, and the room temperature was hotter than the outside. An alchemy furnace was placed in the center, and the shelves at the edges of the room were filled with various panaceas and white porcelain bottles. He didn’t know what kind of pills they were.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I was refining a poison pill today, and it accidentally exploded. ”
The old man with the dirty face apologized awkvvardly with a smile.
Zhao Huai’s mouth twitched, and then he took out the token given by the host and looked at the name on it. He asked, “You are Master Gu?”
The sloppy elder slowly nodded, and then turned back to fiddle with the alchemy furnace.
“That’s right, what do you need? If it’s about pill-refining, forget it. I haven’t even finished refining my own stuff yet.”
After hearing the other party’s words, Zhao Huai fell silent for a moment.
According to the token, this person was a sixth-grade alchemist, a high rank.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, alchemists above the sixth grade could be called Alchemy Masters.
Those above the third grade were considered grandmasters.
Sixth-grade alchemists, whether in the Mortal World or the Immortal Cultivation World, were in high demand.
Zhao Huai looked at the back of the sloppy elder and spoke seriously, “Senior
Gu, I’m here to learn the Alchemy Technique.”
“Alchemy Technique? I see that you’re already in the Initiation Stage and have the protection of sword intention. Isn’t cultivating sword skills good enough? What do you need to learn Alchemy Technique for?”
The sloppy elder turned his head, squinting his old eyes, and chuckled, “Only those whose cultivation has not progressed will delve into alchemy.”
“And besides, aren’t you from an Immortal Sect? Your identity, background, and strength aren’t bad, so why bother learning alchemy? I’ve long stopped taking disciples.”
“No matter how you plead with me, I won’t take you as a disciple.”
The sloppy elder pouted, clearly unwilling to teach.
“Why does Senior Gu think I’m from an Immortal Sect?” Zhao Huai asked out of curiosity.
“What’s so difficult to guess? You have a faint Immortal Spiritual Qi about you. This Spiritual Qi should only exist in the Spiritual Mountains, which were once the Ascension Lands.”
“Senior Gu is really amazing.” Zhao Huai smiled.
It seemed that the other party had mistaken the Immortal Spiritual Qi from the Ancestral Weapon for the Qi from the Spiritual Mountains.
The sloppy elder shook his head, not accepting Zhao Huai’s compliments, and calmly said, “No need to flatter me. Recognizing Qi is just the most basic skill for an alchemist to make a living.”
“Does Senior Gu recognize this item?”
Zhao Huai saw that the other party was so ungracious and just took out the token that Yan Jing had given him.
Upon seeing the token, the sloppy elder was surprised, “The Medicine King’s
Order? How do you have this? Only the True Disciples of the Medicine Pill
Valley have this. I heard that with this token, you can get help from the
Medicine Pill Valley and even enter the Valley to seek the pills you want.”
“That place is the holy land for alchemists all over the world. Countless lost pill prescriptions and various rare pills are there, and so many people want to enter but can’t!”
“Where did you get it from?”
Seeing the excitement in the elder’s eyes, Zhao Huai suddenly understood.
He had underestimated the value of this item.
Yan Jing’s identity must be extraordinary.
Come to think of it, there’s no way his cultivation wouldn’t improve at all in three years.
Looking at the hopeful expression in the sloppy elder’s eyes, Zhao Huai smiled and said,
“Senior Gu, how about we make a deal?” “Ahem, go on.”
The sloppy elder coughed lightly.
“This token was originally given to me by a friend from the Immortal Sect. I have a close relationship with him, and the token is just a symbol. For me, it’s not very useful.”
“As long as you teach me the Alchemy Technique and help me refine pills, I’ll give you this token.”
Zhao Huai smiled.
“No problem! Follow me, Gu Daozi, and I’ll teach you not just some ordinary Alchemy Technique, but the top-notch Ancient Alchemy Art!” The sloppy elder agreed without any hesitation.
There was no trace of the previous disdain in his tone.
You have to know, this was the Medicine King’s Order!
With it, he could go to the Medicine Pill Valley for further study!
For him, there were countless benefits, even the possibility of advancing to fifth or fourth grade!
After leaving the Heavenly Treasures Trade Association, Zhao Huai was very satisfied.
He had gained the help of an alchemist, so he could slowly learn pill-refining in the future.
He aimed to be self-sufficient in pill production and sales in the future.
Not only could he earn money, but he could also cultivate his subordinates. It was a win-win situation.
Zhao Huai returned to the manor courtyard..
