Zhutian: Invincible from the Martial Spirit

Chapter 146: Rong Ling Dan

In the past month, the capital of Gama has become very lively. Alchemists from all over the empire have rushed here, and countless fighters have also gathered here.

Because a new Alchemist Conference is about to be held in the imperial capital.

This is a grand gathering for young alchemists under the age of 30, and it only happens once every eight years.

There are countless young alchemists who want to stand out at the conference, improve their reputation and status, attract the major forces of the empire to recruit them, and gain a bright future.

You know, the number one alchemist in the Gama Empire, 'Dan Wang Gu He', was the champion of the previous Alchemist Conference.

This attracted the attention of the Yunlan Sect, which extended an olive branch to it.

It is precisely because of the Yunlan Sect's endless supply of medicinal materials that Gu He can concentrate on improving his alchemy skills.

In just over ten years, he went from being a fourth-rank alchemist to a sixth-rank alchemist.

Of course, no one else can even think of winning the championship of this Alchemist Conference.

After these two months of fermentation, any well-informed person in the Jia Ma Empire knows that the disciple of President Fa Ma, 'Gu Yi', is already a fifth-grade alchemist (on the surface).

A fifth-grade alchemist! In the Jia Ma Empire, this person can become an elder of the guild!

There are no more than fifteen people in the entire empire!
In previous Alchemist Conferences, the champion was usually only a third-grade alchemist.

Only the class of Dan King Gu He was of the fourth rank.

As for a fifth-grade alchemist, there has never been one.

Therefore, there is no doubt that Gu Yi will be the champion of this conference.

The young alchemists who participated in the competition had no intention of competing with Gu Yi.

They only wanted to show off their alchemy skills as much as possible at the conference.

Even Yan Li, the vice president of the Izumo Empire, who was originally planning to cause trouble at the Alchemist Conference, gave up this plan.

After all, even if he tried his best, he could only refine the fourth-grade peak elixir, and he could never reach the fifth grade.

As for Xiao Yan...

He chose not to attend the convention.

Because Cai Lin was with Gu Yi, Xiao Yan was not threatened.

Moreover, Xiao Yan did not experience a major battle and released the Buddha's Fury Lotus, which caused Yao Lao's soul power to be over-consumed and he fell into a deep sleep.

Therefore, Xiao Yan did not have much demand for the Rong Ling Pill.

What's more, even if he participated, Xiao Yan thought he was no match for Gu Yi.

His current alchemy skills are only at the fourth level.

If you want to defeat Gu Yi, you have to let Yao Lao take action.

But what kind of person is Yao Lao?

It would be fine for him to help refine high-level pills under normal circumstances, but in a competition like the Alchemist Conference, there was no way he would help Xiao Yan cheat.

According to Yao Lao, "This Gama Empire's Alchemist Conference is just an intra-empire competition, a minor event, not worth mentioning.

Xiao Yanzi, if you want to compete with Gu Yi, you must also compete with him at the Zhongzhou Dan Conference."

"The Alchemy Conference held by the Alchemy Tower is the biggest gathering for alchemists in the entire Douqi Continent!"

Yao Lao was still very satisfied with Xiao Yan's talent as an alchemist.

In three years, he reached the level of a fourth-grade alchemist.

If we give him more time, he may not be worse than Gu Yi.

It just so happens that the Dan Tower’s alchemy conference is still a few years away, which is enough time for Xiao Yan to catch up.

……

This year's Alchemist Guild is completely Gu Yi's one-man show.

In several rounds of assessments at the conference, Gu Yi was always in a class of his own.

In the last round of self-refining pills, Gu Yi even refined a furnace of sixth-grade primary pills, shocking countless people.

Even Yao Lao was extremely shocked.

It turns out that everyone's belief in a fifth-grade alchemist was a conservative one.

Gu Yi has actually reached the level of a sixth-grade alchemist! !
He is on the same level as his master Fa Ma and Dan King Gu He.

The most important thing is that Gu Yi is too young, he is only seventeen or eighteen years old.

It is hard to imagine what he will be able to achieve in the future!
Seventh rank? Eighth rank?
Perhaps Gu Yi will have the chance to become the legendary ninth-grade alchemist!

Even Yao Lao couldn't help but sigh that it was a monster.

He had an extraordinary vision and could tell at a glance that Gu Yi was able to refine the sixth-grade primary elixir with ease.

This is far from his limit.

One furnace can produce several sixth-grade primary pills.

Gu Yi's real alchemy skills had reached at least the sixth-grade intermediate level, or even the sixth-grade advanced level.

Suddenly, Yao Lao was not so confident that Xiao Yan could catch up with Gu Yi.

Even the ancient family that is best at refining medicine in the Douqi Continent, and the medicine clan from which the medicine master came.

In tens of thousands of years, there have only been a few sixth-grade advanced alchemists of this age.

Gu Yi can be said to be the most extraordinary genius in both cultivation and alchemy talent that Yao Lao has ever seen in all his years.

In just two months, Gu Yi's cultivation level actually improved by one star.

"Xiao Yanzi, I'm afraid you can't catch up with him..." Yao Lao sighed, feeling that there are always talented people emerging in every generation.

He now feels that as long as Xiao Yan is not too weaker than Gu Yi in the future, it will be enough.

Xiao Yan smiled helplessly and didn't care: "Teacher, the Alchemist Conference is over, let's go back. In a few days we should go to Yunlan Sect to fulfill the three-year agreement."

In Xiao Yan's heart, the three-year agreement that was about to come was much more important than catching up with Gu Yi.

He has been through so much for this day.

In a few days, he will avenge all the humiliation that his father and family suffered in the past!

If Yao Lao hadn't said that he wanted to see Gu Yi's strength, Xiao Yan would not have come here and would have concentrated on practicing in the inn.

In the past two months, Xiao Yan's cultivation has made great progress.

Through Ya Fei, he bought a large amount of medicinal materials at the Miter Auction House, and had Yao Lao refine many pills.

Xiao Yan has now reached the level of a one-star Grand Fighter.

According to the information he collected, Nalan Yanran was just a great fighting master.

……

"Invitation?"

In a courtyard in the imperial capital, Gu Yi took a sip of tea and looked with interest at a cloud-white letter in his hand that was of simple and elegant workmanship. There was a white cloud and a long sword painted on it.

This is the invitation sent by Yunlan Sect to Gu Yi.

The content written on the invitation stated that the Yunlan Sect's Young Master was about to enter into a three-year engagement with a young man, completely cancelling their engagement, and specially invited Gu Yi to attend the ceremony.

In addition to Gu Yi, all the famous forces and powerful people in the imperial capital received corresponding invitations.

This is the Yunlan Sect building up momentum for Nalan Yanran.

"What watching ceremony? Gu Yi, your most urgent task is to help me refine the Rong Ling Pill!" Cai Lin snatched the invitation, glanced at it casually, and threw it aside.

Gu Yi looked at Cai Lin who was impatient and said with a smile: "Don't worry, since I have promised you, I will naturally help you refine it."

"There are only a few days left before the three-year agreement with the Yunlan Sect, which is enough time for me to refine the Rongling Pill." After becoming the champion of this year's Alchemist Conference, Gu Yi obtained the recipe for the Rongling Pill, learned all the details of the refining process, and learned the recipe thoroughly.

As for medicinal materials, Gu Yi also collected some medicinal materials for refining Rongling Pills.

Most of these medicinal materials were collected by Gu Yi through the channels of the Mitel family and the Alchemist Guild.

The remaining herbs came from the Third Blood God Son.

He traveled all the way to the Black Horn Region, passing through several countries and many large cities.

Whenever he had the chance, he would stay in these cities for a day or two to collect various rare medicinal herbs.

After all, the Third Blood God Son can also make pills. His level of alchemy skills is the same as his original one, and he can make some pills for himself.

The only thing that limits him is his soul power.

As an incarnation, the Third Blood God Son also practiced the Art of Residual Souls, which greatly strengthened the more than one hundred residual souls.

Now his soul power has reached the level of the middle stage of the mortal realm, so it should be no problem for him to refine a fourth-grade pill.

So in the past few months, the Third Blood God Son collected the remaining medicinal herbs.

Feeling Cai Lin's eager gaze, Gu Yi smiled indifferently and took out the Nine Heavens Blue Dragon Cauldron.

As a sacred artifact, the Nine Heavens Azure Dragon Cauldron has a great bonus for alchemy.

In addition, Gu Yi’s own alchemy skills have also reached the advanced sixth level.

Therefore, the process of Gu Yi refining the elixir went smoothly without any problems.

Three days later, a beam of energy shot up into the sky in the courtyard, creating waves of energy and attracting the attention of people around.

The Dou Huangs and Dou Wangs in the imperial capital all sensed something and turned their gazes towards Gu Yi's courtyard, feeling deeply moved.

If it had happened in the past, everyone would have thought that it was the noise caused by President Fa Ma making the elixir.

But now, everyone knows that the courtyard is Gu Yi’s residence, and this elixir was also made by Gu Yi.

"The young are to be feared." The strong men sighed, feeling somewhat regretful.

How great it would be if such a peerless genius appeared in their family/sect.

As early as two months ago, when they knew that Gu Yi was a Dou Wang powerhouse and a 'fifth-grade alchemist', they had been thinking about establishing a good relationship with Gu Yi.

And after learning that Gu Yi was a sixth-grade cultivator not long ago, this thought became even stronger.

As the saying goes, when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Gu Yi has a promising future. It is only a matter of time before he becomes a Dou Zun and an eighth-grade alchemist.

If they establish a good relationship with Gu Yi, they may have the opportunity to become Dou Zong in the future and see a wider world.

The most solid relationship that can be formed with Gu Yi is undoubtedly marriage.

Therefore, various forces began to think about matching the favored daughters of their own families or sects with Gu Yi.

"Ye'er, Yue'er, go and invite Gu Yi to come to Yunlan Sect to watch the ceremony together."

"Ya Fei, please send this medicinal herb to the ancient mansion..."

……

In the courtyard of the ancient mansion, Gu Yi flicked his fingers and sent out a stream of true energy, which opened the lid of the cauldron.

The next second, three Rong Ling Pills flew out of the hot cauldron, dropped into Gu Yi's palm, and were put into a jade bottle respectively.

Cai Lin, who had been waiting for a long time, stepped forward impatiently.

Gu Yi smiled and handed over the jade bottle containing a Rong Ling Pill, "Here, go and absorb and refine it."

"As for the conditions for obtaining this elixir... How about you help me to entangle a Dou Zong strongman in the near future?"

"No problem." Cai Lin's eyes were burning as she took the jade bottle impatiently.

Cai Lin didn't want to waste any more time and returned to her room. She began to refine the medicinal power of the Rong Ling Pill and slowly merge it with the soul of the Swallowing Sky Python.

The fairy doctor, dressed in white and looking as graceful as a fairy, watched the scene quietly, with a smile on her face, but a hint of imperceptible envy flashed in her eyes.

Cai Lin can already solve the hidden dangers of her own body, but she...

Gu Yi, who had a strong sense of perception, immediately noticed the changes in Little Medical Fairy and said solemnly: "Little Medical Fairy, I have obtained the method of poison pills that can control the poisonous body of Evil. Next, I will help you collect the necessary materials in the shortest time!"

"I believe you." The little medical fairy smiled faintly, her eyes curved into crescents.

Two months ago, when Gu Yi came back from the Tagor Desert, he told Xiao Yixian the method of making the poison pill and let her read the information above.

This made Xiao Yixiang feel much more at ease, and she also understood that Gu Yi had not lied to her.

It turns out that there really is a way to control the poisonous body in this world.

Little Medical Fairy’s gratitude towards Gu Yi was beyond words.

Over the years, Gu Yi has helped her so much.

But she seemed to have nothing that could help Gu Yi...

Except for herself... and the poisonous body that can rapidly enhance her strength.

In order to help Shanggu Yi at the critical moment, in the past two months, Xiao Yixiang began to swallow poison frequently, and assisted with the Blood Swan Kiss which can enhance the toxicity.

In just two months, Xiao Yixian's cultivation level has advanced by leaps and bounds, and he has already broken through from Douling to Douwang! And he is a three-star Douwang! He has crossed seven or eight small realms in a row!
Such a speed of cultivation is truly astonishing.

But this is still not enough.

From what Gu Yi said just now, Little Medical Fairy knew that the enemy who could threaten Gu Yi was at least at the Dou Zong level.

Ordinary Dou Wangs and Dou Huangs are no match for Gu Yi at all, and he can handle them on his own.

If she wants to help Shang Gu Yi, she must also reach the level of Dou Zong in terms of strength.

But it is not easy to reach Dou Zong level.

As Xiao Yixiang's strength increases, low-level poisons no longer have any effect on her.

If you want to continue to improve your cultivation quickly, the quality of the poison must be at least level four.

The Little Medical Immortal murmured in his heart: "There are not many high-level poisons and toxic substances in the Jia Ma Empire. If we want to maximize the power of the Evil Poison Body, we need to go to the Izumo Empire."

The Izumo Empire is a famous gathering place for poison masters in the northwest continent. Most of the fighters in the empire practice poisonous fighting spirit.

Because of this, all kinds of poisons and toxic substances are cultivated there, including some that are strong enough to poison Dou Huang or even Dou Zong.

It is simply a paradise for those with the poisonous body.

If Xiao Yixiang wants to cultivate to the level of Dou Zong as quickly as possible, going to the Izumo Empire is a good choice.

Xiao Yixiang's eyes became firm, she had already made a decision in her heart.

After a while, I will go to the Izumo Empire.

On the other side, Gu Yi threw a Lingling Pill into his mouth, activated the Canhun Tianshu, and slowly absorbed the medicinal power.

In addition to allowing the soul and body to merge, the Soul Rong Dan can also restore the soul's power.

To some extent, it can also enhance the power of the soul.

Cai Lin only needs one Rong Ling Pill, and Gu Yi naturally won’t waste the remaining two pills.

He could feel his soul power, and he was not far from reaching the Great Perfection of the Mortal Realm...

The Sky-Swallowing Python was originally separated from Cai Lin, so after taking the Soul-Relieving Pill for a few hours, Cai Lin successfully merged the soul of the Sky-Swallowing Python.

And the imprint in the Sky-Swallowing Python's soul was also silently integrated into Cai Lin's soul.

Now her life and death are completely in Gu Yi's hands.
