Chapter 137 Another talent emerges from the world of alchemy! He rises to fame!
The young woman introduced: "These three are the instructors who will assess you. Let me introduce you, Chang Yufeng, Zhen Jianyuan, and Meng Huijun. These three are all fourth-grade alchemists."
"I met three mentors."
Wei An smiled and bowed his hands.
"Well, no gifts."
Chang Yufeng smiled warmly, "Let me briefly introduce how to conduct the assessment. There are generally two assessment methods.
In the first way, you can choose to refine three seventh-grade elixirs that you are best at refining. If all three seventh-grade elixirs are successfully refined, our three instructors will determine that you are qualified;
The second way..."
Chang Yufeng pointed to the earthen jar on the ground, "Inside this vessel, there are many paper balls. Each paper ball has the name of a seventh-grade elixir written on it. You want to draw lots. Which elixir you catch will be the winner."
Whichever one is refined, if the refining is successful, you will be promoted, otherwise, you will be judged to have failed."
Wei An pondered for a moment and then said, "I choose the second assessment method."
As soon as these words came out!
The three instructors and the young woman were all shocked.
Generally speaking, everyone will choose the first assessment method.
Obviously, the difficulty of the two examination methods is different. The first is an open-book examination, and the second is a closed-book examination.
If you choose the test paper, as long as you prepare in advance and master the refining of three kinds of seventh-grade elixirs, you will be sure of success in this test.
Looking back at the closed book exam...
God knows what kind of elixir you will catch by drawing lots. If you are unfortunate enough to catch an elixir that you have never refined or even heard of, wouldn't it be doomed on the spot?
Wei An is naturally very aware of the differences and tricks.
The reason why he chose to close the book was because he had strong confidence in his own alchemy ability.
[Occupation: Alchemist]
[Level: Fourth Grade]
[Elixirs that are good at refining: Golden Crow Pill, Ningbi Pill, Guiyuan Pill, Huanglong Pill, Heqi Pill, Three Lines Qingling Pill, Seven Life Poison Pill...]
As early as last November, Wei An met a young alchemist named Xu Dongyuan. After imitating the materials he borrowed, he received a fourth-level alchemist award.
Of course, in addition to Xu Dongyuan, Wei An also simulated the lives of other alchemists and received many rewards.
It's just that none of those people's achievements are as good as Xu Dongyuan's.
At the age of seventeen, Wei An was a fifth-grade alchemist, so he directly dominated the Qianlong Ranking.
At the age of eighteen, Wei An was already a fourth-grade alchemist, which would scare a person to death!
Moreover, he is a genuine fourth-level alchemist, and his alchemy skills come from Xu Dongyuan and others' lifelong learning and lifelong efforts.
With the strength of a fourth-level alchemist in the seventh-level test, Wei An is naturally confident.
"Are you sure you want to choose the second assessment method?" Chang Yufeng couldn't help but ask.
Wei An nodded and said, "OK."
"……good!"
Chang Yufeng looked deeply at Wei An, then he picked up the earthen jar, shook it a few times, and said, "Now you can draw lots."
Wei An stretched out his hand and reached into the jar. Without any hesitation, he quickly grabbed a paper ball.
Open it!
"Five-flavored Evil Elixir..."
The three instructors, Chang Yufeng, leaned forward and saw the words on the paper at a glance.
This "Five Flavors Elixir Elixir" is a seventh-grade elixir, healing type, mainly used to treat mental illness and eliminate evil nuisance.
The difficulty of refining this elixir is above average among all seventh-grade elixirs.
However, this elixir is mainly used to treat rare diseases and is not common. Few people usually refine it in large quantities.
In other words, Zhang Sanqiao is really unlucky.
"How's it going? Are you sure?" Chang Yufeng immediately looked up at Wei An and asked.
At this time, Wei An's memory and insights of refining the five-flavored evil-repelling elixir appeared in his mind.
Xu Dongyuan happens to have refined the five-flavor evil-repelling elixir, and has developed a variety of refining techniques.
"no problem."
Wei An answered calmly and calmly.
"……good!"
Chang Yufeng couldn't help but look forward to it, and said carefully: "Write down the required medicinal materials on paper, and we will prepare them for you. We will prepare three copies of each medicinal material for you.
In other words, you have three refining opportunities, and as long as one of the three refining is successful, you will be considered qualified."
Wei An immediately wrote down the required medicinal materials.
64 aroids, 50 Sijiqing, 32 deerweeds, 27 white keels...
The three instructors checked the medicinal materials written by Wei An and found that they were completely consistent. The names and quantities were exactly the same, and their expectations were immediately raised.
After a while, all three medicinal materials were sent to the alchemy room.
At this time, Wei An had already tidied up the alchemy furnace and immediately started processing the medicinal materials.
Either cut off the rhizome, grind it into powder, or soak it in water. The processing of each medicinal material is different.
After everything was ready, Wei An lit up the fire, and when the temperature reached the required level, he put the medicinal materials into the alchemy furnace one by one in order to boil and purify them.
During this period, the temperature of the furnace fire rises and falls from time to time. The timing is very delicate and depends entirely on personal experience.
finally!
The color of the liquid in the alchemy furnace gradually became clear, as if the essence of all the medicinal materials had been blended together.
Wei An followed the steps, further concentrating the liquid, pouring it into a mold and shaping it. After cooling and shaping, it was sealed in a sterile porcelain bottle.
"Phew, it's done."
Wei An slowly exhaled a breath, and then handed the porcelain bottle to the three instructors.
"You are qualified!"
Chang Yufeng and the other three were very cheerful and did not say anything, and quickly gave the results.
There is no way around it. The five-flavored evil-repelling elixir refined by Wei An is impeccable in terms of appearance and medicinal properties.
The three of them asked themselves, with their level as fourth-grade alchemists, refining the seventh-grade five-flavor evil-dispelling elixir could only go as far as this, reaching the limit.
"Congratulations Zhang Sanqiao, you are now a seventh-grade alchemist."
Chang Yufeng stood up, smiled and nodded, "You were promoted to the seventh level at the age of twenty-two. Your alchemy talent is definitely top-notch. I see that you are quite capable of refining seventh-level elixirs, and your skills are very superb. Maybe you will be able to refine them soon."
I can advance to the sixth level of alchemy master."
At this point, he suddenly changed the subject, "By the way, I heard that you don't have an alchemy master. Do you want me to recommend one to you?"
Wei An raised his eyebrows and said silently, "I wonder which famous teacher it is?"
"Meng Wancheng, a second-grade alchemist, is also my master." Chang Yufeng continued.
Wei An had heard of Meng Wancheng, one of the only four second-grade alchemists in the Pantian Sect, who was very famous.
He did not object to this, and said: "Can you please help me introduce him?"
"Easy to say, easy to say."
Chang Yufeng felt that Zhang Sanqiao was a good prospect and his master Meng Wancheng would like him.
The fourth day of April!
Chang Yufeng came to Chaoyang Peak in person, found Wei An, and took him to meet Meng Wancheng.
Soon, Wei An met Meng Wancheng, a thin old man with white beard and hair. Strangely, his eyes were shining as bright as two light bulbs.
Wei An once again performed the apprenticeship ceremony and served the apprenticeship tea.
"Get up."
Meng Wancheng smiled gently and said bluntly: "Although you worship me as your teacher, I am usually very busy and rarely have time to guide you in alchemy. You can study with Chang Yufeng for the time being. If you can advance to the fifth level of alchemy before the age of thirty
Master, I will take the time to train you personally."
"Disciple understands."
Wei An was not disappointed at all, but rather happy.
Chang Yufeng is only a fourth-grade alchemist, so it is difficult for him to discover Wei An's secret.
But if Wei An often follows Meng Wancheng...
It won’t take a moment!
Wei An and Chang Yufeng walked out of Meng Wancheng's cave.
"Senior brother, please take care of me in the future." Wei An said solemnly.
"You are my junior brother, and it is only natural to take care of you."
Chang Yufeng was very happy and laughed and said: "Let's go, let me take you to meet all the senior brothers and sisters."
Not long after, the two entered a small courtyard.
Wei An saw a middle-aged man with a square appearance. He was Chang Yufeng's younger brother named Wu Yujie.
"Wu Yujie was brought up by me. He started learning alchemy with me from the ninth level and was promoted to the fifth level alchemist three years ago." Chang Yufeng said with a smile.
Wei An immediately understood why the first person Chang Yufeng brought him to see was Wu Yujie.
This person should be the most outstanding alchemist trained by Chang Yufeng, so of course he should be shown off.
By coincidence, Wu Yujie was holding an alchemy scroll and studying the art of alchemy.
Seeing this, Wei An had an idea and took the opportunity to chat with him. He took the thick alchemy scroll and asked him a question before returning it to him.
After simulation...
A smile appeared on the corner of Wei An's mouth.
This Wu Yujie's talent is not bad, but it is a pity that he was only promoted to the fourth level alchemist in the end.
However, by chance, he once successfully refined two third-grade elixirs, namely the Eight Treasures Ascension Pill and the Red Blood Life-Sustaining Pill.
The former has the effect of improving the cultivation level of third-grade warriors, while the latter can be used to heal injuries and extend life when seriously injured and dying.
Later, Chang Yufeng took Wei An to visit several senior brothers and sisters. These people were of different ages, some were old and some were still young and energetic.
It's a pity that none of them are reading or studying the art of alchemy. Wei An is just a familiar face and has no additional gains.
…
…
Time flies.
April passed quickly, and in May, the flying flowers lightly broke the willow trees.
Danxia Peak has a tradition to hold an alchemy exchange meeting on the first day of every month.
On this day, those fourth-grade, third-grade or even second-grade alchemists may attend the exchange meeting to explain the alchemy techniques to a group of alchemists and answer their questions.
Therefore, low-level alchemists attach great importance to this exchange meeting and will almost never miss it.
The exchange meeting was held in a large garden called "Dan Garden". The venue was large and could accommodate more than a thousand people.
Early that morning, Wei An was ready to go and came to the Danyuan with a volume of alchemy books.
Soon, the alchemy garden was full of people, and hundreds of alchemists gathered together to talk enthusiastically.
"Senior brother, I want to take a rest. Can you help me keep the alchemy book?"
Wei An blended into the crowd, picked a target at random, and said with a smile.
The other party did not doubt that he was there, so he naturally accepted the alchemy book.
"Simulate it, it will cost 50,000 low-grade spiritual stones at a time." Wei An turned and walked away, and then his face became ferocious.
"Trash, you have been practicing hard all your life and you only managed to get to the sixth level."
Wei An curled his lips with a very disdainful expression. He quickly found the man again and asked for his alchemy book back.
There was no way, he didn't simulate the other party's identity token in advance, so he could only spend a lot of money like this, and either make a lot of money or lose a lot of money.
It’s like opening a blind box, it’s so exciting!
Simulation again and again...
finally!
Wei An met a woman named Guan Fangyu. She was very young, only twenty years old this year. She was the daughter of a fourth-level alchemist from the Pantian Sect. She had learned the art of alchemy since she was a child and was quite talented.
After the simulation, Wei An got his wish and was promoted to a third-grade alchemist!
[Name: Wei An]
[Age: 18 years old]
[Occupation: Alchemist]
[Level: Third Grade]
[Elixirs that are good at refining: Great Yuanyang Pill, Liuwei Lishu Pill, Wuhen Pill, Nine Blood Bixin Pill, Luohe Pill, Muscle Rejuvenation Pill...]
"More than seven million yuan was spent today, so much money!" Wei An looked up to the sky and sighed.
Late May!
Wei An went to the assessment hall again, successfully passed the sixth-grade test, and was officially promoted to a sixth-grade alchemist.
In less than two months, Wei An was promoted one after another and showed great talent in alchemy. He couldn't help but cause a bit of a sensation in the alchemy circle, but it gradually made him famous.
