The old man continued: "In another half month, the assessment of the intermediate alchemist will begin, and those who are interested can also participate." As he said that, he glanced at Liu Qinghuan, and the man and woman beside him also looked at Liu Qinghuan at the same time.
.
Liu Qinghuan's expression moved slightly, not understanding what he meant.
The old man added: "Due to the huge cost of the intermediate examination, the monks who will participate will need to pay a thousand spiritual stones each."
Do you still have to pay a fee? A thousand spiritual stones is a lot, at least the extremely poor Liu Qinghuan cannot take it out now.
Liu Qinghuan looked at the others, but when he saw that most of them had a matter-of-fact expression, he knew that this was a long-standing practice.
The old man gave a few more instructions, then led everyone into Liuzhu Hall, took out some inch-long wooden plaques, asked each person's name, and carved them on them one by one.
Liu Qinghuan took the wooden sign from him. This wooden sign was actually made of fragrant wood, with a curly blade of grass engraved on it, and the seal of the Yunmengze Immortal Cultivation Alliance in the lower right corner. Liu Qinghuan's name had just been engraved on the back.
The name and Wen Shipa are three characters.
This wooden sign represents the identity of a junior alchemist. No matter where you go in the future, as long as you show this sign, you can enjoy some discounts in the elixir stores under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Cultivation Alliance.
After coming out of Liuzhu Palace, Liu Qinghuan's face showed a solemn look. His goal was to enter the alchemy room, and he had to pass an intermediate alchemist before he could enter.
There is still half a month left. In this half month, we can only sharpen our guns in battle.
Liu Qinghuan first went to the trading shop, and after half an hour, he immediately rushed to the market.
He took out the two Dingyan Pills in his hand. Due to its characteristics, the Dingyan Pill is more popular among female cultivators than the Zhuanyan Pill, but because the materials are difficult to find, it rarely appears in the world.
However, Wu Zitao got more than a dozen ingredients from somewhere, and finally gave Liu Qinghuan an advantage. He made four pills in total, sent one to Yunzheng, ate one himself, and now only these two pills are left.
The Dingyan Pill was indeed very popular, and a total of 12,000 spirit stones were sold in the end. This was because he was in a hurry to sell it and the price was lowered. If it had been auctioned, it would have sold for at least seven or eight thousand spirit stones.
The price of each piece.
Before the spirit stone was warmed up, it was exchanged for various materials. Liu Qinghuan visited all the elixir shops in the market, and finally collected dozens of materials for the Peiyuan Dan, and unexpectedly found
He obtained more than a hundred ingredients for another elixir.
Even with these, in the end, he still didn't have enough spirit stones, and he had to leave a thousand spirit stones. Liu Qinghuan had no choice but to take out a foundation-building pill to find Wang Xu.
Wang Xu was shocked when he saw the Foundation Establishment Pill: "Do you really want to sell this Foundation Establishment Pill?"
Liu Qinghuan endured the physical pain and nodded: "Now that I have successfully established the foundation, it is useless to keep this pill. I originally planned to refine one more just in case, but I didn't expect it to be useless."
Wang Xu's face suddenly turned red. He grabbed Liu Qinghuan's hand and said, "Senior Brother Liu, can you sell this Foundation Establishment Pill to me? I'll buy it for you at the market price!"
After saying that, I felt a little embarrassed.
How can the Foundation Establishment Pill have a market price? It is a pill that has a price but no market! Not to mention casual cultivators, there are disciples of the Wenshi Sect like Wang Xu who work in the sect’s pill shop and want to get a Foundation Establishment Pill.
Dandu is extremely difficult!
Liu Qing said with a smile: "Senior Brother Wang wants to buy it, and I won't say anything. I'll just give you 80% of the market price."
Finally, at Wang Xu's insistence, he gave Liu Qinghuan 10,000 spirit stones: "I have already taken advantage of you with these 10,000 spirit stones, you have to accept them!"
Seeing that Liu Qinghuan finally accepted, Wang Xu's eyes turned red with excitement, and his voice trembled: "Senior Brother Liu, I can't thank you enough for your kindness, I..." But he couldn't say the next words.
Liu Qinghuan joked: "Senior Brother Wang, are you so sorry for those 10,000 spirit stones that you are crying?"
Wang Xu was dumbfounded by what he said, and said angrily: "Senior Brother Liu, if you call me Senior Brother again in the future, I will get angry!"
Liu Qinghuan spread his hands helplessly: "Okay, then I wish you, Junior Brother Wang, success in building your foundation!"
After buying the materials, Liu Qinghuan started refining the elixir day and night after returning to Zizhu Courtyard.
Half a month later, he came to Liuzhu Hall again.
This time, the people waiting here were all people taking the intermediate alchemist examination, and they were all foundation-building monks. Only two of them, Liu Qinghuan, had met half a month ago.
After everyone waited for a while, the old man, the man with the beard and the beautiful female cultivator who had appeared before walked out of Liuzhu Hall.
The old man who was walking at the front stood on the steps and said: "Excuse me, my junior brothers and sisters, please wait. Before the assessment of the intermediate alchemist begins, I want to announce something first."
Everyone turned their attention to him, and the old man smiled: "I believe you have all seen the notice in the alchemy room. This year, the alchemy room will only accept one intermediate alchemist. We will not set up another assessment. In this assessment
The winner will go directly to the alchemy room!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone had different reactions. Some of them slumped their shoulders instantly, some were confident of winning, and most of them had expressionless faces.
The old man led everyone to the small courtyard before and said: "Today's assessment has two levels. The first level is the same as that of a junior alchemist. You only need to identify more than 1,200 medicinal herbs and spiritual materials to pass. Please.
Junior brothers and sisters, let’s start now.”
Everyone looked at each other, but "just"?
Everyone present felt a thunderous shock, and many people who had not paid attention to the primary assessment were dumbfounded. If they had not handed over a thousand spiritual stones as soon as they arrived here, I am afraid that some people would have turned around and left at this time!
However, there are also people who are confident and enter the magic circle directly.
Liu Qinghuan was about to find a corner to sit down and wait, when the old man suddenly shouted: "Junior Brother Lin Miao, is Junior Brother Liu Qinghuan here?"
Everyone who was still in the courtyard stopped and looked at the old man.
A middle-aged male cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building walked out of the crowd: "Senior Brother Tu called me?"
He had high cheekbones, two deep nasolabial lines extending down from the side of his nose, and his face looked extremely dull. When Liu Qinghuan came out, he only glanced at him flatly.
The old man smiled and said: "The two junior brothers have outstanding abilities. Junior Brother Lin has already proved his strength last year, and Junior Brother Liu identified more than 1,800 medicinal herbs and spiritual materials in the first level half a month ago, so you two
People can directly enter the second level.”
After saying that, the three of them left together.
The eyes of everyone present when they saw Liu Qinghuan all changed, more than 1,800 times? Is this level actually not as difficult as they imagined?
Only the two monks who had participated in the primary examination before looked at Liu Qinghuan with a hint of horror on their faces.
The monk named Lin Miao rolled his eyes, a contemptuous smile appeared on his face, and he let out a cold snort.
Liu Qinghuan looked at him inexplicably, with a trace of deep thought flashing in his eyes.
At this time, a male cultivator with a few bamboo leaves on his clothes came to Liu Qinghuan and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that I have a disciple in Zhulin Mountain who is so proficient in alchemy. Junior Brother Liu, I am Zhang Yuanpei, and I will ask Junior Brother Liu a lot in the future.
Guidance is what it takes.”
Liu Qinghuan returned the greeting: "Senior Brother Zhang is visiting..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard another cold snort from the side, and Lin Miao said in a strange tone: "I know a lot of medicinal herbs, but it doesn't mean that I am good at alchemy, so what is there to be proud of?"
Liu Qinghuan stopped talking, turned to look at him, moved two steps away, and continued: "Senior Brother Zhang, you're welcome."
Lin Miao's face suddenly turned ugly.
Liu Qinghuan was too lazy to pay attention to him, and chatted happily with Zhang Yuanpei.
The first level went very quickly, and it was all over by the afternoon, with only half of the people left.
This time it was the beautiful female nun who came to greet them. She led everyone to the side yard and opened the door of the big room in the middle.
The space inside the house is very large, and there are no longer magic circles, but five actual tables.
The tables are separated and side by side, with a long distance between them, and a storage bag is placed on each table.
The old man and the handsome man were sitting not far from the door, drinking tea leisurely.
"Brother Tu, everyone is here." The beautiful female cultivator stepped forward and said.
"Yes." The old man nodded, put the tea cup on the small table at hand, stood up and said: "In this second level, the assessment is the rate of elixir formation. Intermediate alchemists must have two or more foundation-building elixirs.
The elixir rate is over 30%."
He pointed to the table in the room: "Things have been prepared for you. Each person can choose two of the five elixirs to refine. You cannot choose more than one, so you must think carefully before choosing. Without further ado, this
Let’s get started.”
After he finished speaking, someone had already stepped forward.
Liu Qinghuan also walked to the table on the far right. He had been waiting for most of the day, and it was the same as the first one and the second one. It was better to finish early.
At this time, a person walked up next to him, but it was Lin Miao. He looked at Liu Qinghuan provocatively.
