Chapter 254: Fire Seed Explanation, Promotion to Core Disciple

Golden Tripod Pavilion.

Alchemy room.

"The temperature of this underground fire is really high, and controlling the temperature requires a stronger ability. But fortunately, I have the "Detailed Explanation of Fire" given by my master before, which records the control of underground fire, so I can be considered to have a certain understanding of this underground fire."

"But it will still take some time to refine the bone-strengthening pills."

Yang Xuan looked at the materials that were burned to ashes in the alchemy furnace and shook his head slightly.

The pill he was trying to refine now was the Strengthening Muscle Pill, which was a high-quality pill he had refined before, but even so, he still failed.

There are also significant differences in the methods of refining different kinds of fire. In particular, some elixirs require special kinds of fire to be refined. Therefore, as the alchemy ability improves, perhaps controlling different kinds of fire can greatly improve the fire control ability, which is naturally of great help in refining elixirs.

The "Detailed Explanation of the Fire Seed" given to him by Peak Master Yan Xulong was also a preparation for this, and it was obvious that he also attached importance to Yang Xuan's future.

Even though the alchemy ability displayed by Yang Xuan is not as good as his martial arts ability, the opponent is still the same.

Since Yang Xuan chose to follow the alchemy lineage, he naturally focused on the alchemy aspect of Yang Xuan's training and did not force Yang Xuan to follow the guardian lineage.

Previously, Elder Xu Changqing was very optimistic about Yang Xuan and hoped that Yang Xuan would follow the lineage of the Dharma Protector. If he became the other party's disciple, Yang Xuan might have to spend more time on the lineage of the Dharma Protector!

“But it’s not a complete loss.”

"The more times you try to use the earth fire to refine pills, the more control you will have over the earth fire. In the future, you will definitely be able to control the temperature very well. Then you will be able to refine the tendon-strengthening pills first, and then the bone-strengthening pills."

Although Yang Xuan failed in refining the elixir, his mentality was not affected much. Instead, he had a clearer plan for the future arrangements.

Getting familiar with the earth fire is a necessary part of his experience, because he will definitely use the earth fire instead of ordinary fire when refining pills in the future. The efficiency difference between the two is too great and there is no comparison at all.

Furthermore, as the alchemy level is raised in the future, ordinary flames will not be able to be used for alchemy, so it is a good idea to spend some time getting familiar with the earth fire first.

Yang Xuan is slowly getting familiar with the new environment here.

Two months have flown by.

Alchemist Examination Institute.

Yang Xuan was taking an assessment at this time, and the fire used in this assessment was no longer ordinary flames, but earth fire, and the alchemy furnace was also the one prepared by the Alchemist Assessment Institute.

In front of Yang Xuan, the temperature of the alchemy furnace was extremely high, and he was controlling the fire temperature at this time. There were some spiritual materials next to it, but they had basically been placed by him.

The remaining materials are not needed, so they are now being temperature controlled, waiting for the spiritual materials in the alchemy furnace to be refined and fused, and finally the bone-strengthening pills will be produced.

It took Yang Xuan a lot of time to get familiar with the earth fire. After he became familiar with the earth fire, Yang Xuan's progress in alchemy improved very quickly. Of course, this was also related to the fact that the Xuyuan Dan Sutra on the panel was upgraded to perfection. It was also related to the alchemy-related books given to him by Pavilion Master Yan Xulong, which allowed his alchemy ability to improve rapidly.

In addition, Yang Xuan also learned a lot of new knowledge at the Xuri Pavilion. All these combined allowed him to successfully refine bone-strengthening pills of qualified quality. After refining the bone-strengthening pills of qualified quality, Yang Xuan did not rush to take the assessment, but continued to improve his alchemy skills and familiarize himself with the entire refining process to prevent problems from occurring during the alchemy assessment.

Yang Xuan is now a first-level alchemist, so if he wants to be promoted to a second-level alchemist, he needs to refine pills to assist in internal cultivation. To a certain extent, refining bone-strengthening pills does not require any assessment.

Yang Xuan came to the Alchemist Assessment Office to take the assessment at this time, not as an alchemist, but as an assessment for the core disciples of the alchemy lineage.

The higher-ups at Juling Shendan Peak were aware of his situation, as well as the arrangements made by Peak Master Yan Xulong. Therefore, when Yang Xuan came for the assessment, there were elders watching his alchemy process.

The alchemy school does not focus on the assessment of martial arts skills, so it is enough to confirm that the martial arts skills have broken through to the level of Yunshenbing. And Yang Xuan's previous performance in the sect competition naturally made it unnecessary to assess his martial arts skills. Instead, his alchemy ability needed to be tested.

Therefore, Yang Xuan was conducting the promotion assessment for core disciples at this time.

Although he had enjoyed some of the treatment of a core disciple before, it was not complete. If he wanted more resources for cultivation, he naturally needed to be promoted to a core disciple.

The overall progress was different from what Yang Xuan had expected, but not by much. After all, in his original plan, he did not control the earth fire and use it to refine pills. But now, it was better than his original plan.

In the future, using earth fire to refine pills will be more efficient, and his progress towards becoming a second-level alchemist should be better than expected.

"call!"

As Yang Xuan closed the earth fire port and the alchemy furnace slowly began to cool down, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The refining process has ended. The next step is to wait for the alchemy furnace to cool down and then take out the pills.

During the entire refining process, no mistakes occurred. Yang Xuan had a general understanding of the situation of refining the pill just now. This was also the experience he would gain after refining the same kind of pill more times.

After the alchemy furnace had cooled down completely, Yang Xuan opened it.

In an instant, a strong medicinal aroma filled the room, and those experienced alchemists could judge the quality of the elixir by the aroma.

Yang Xuan picked up the refined pill, and in the process he also judged the condition of the pill.

Qualified quality, the specific quality should be sixty-three, which is a very normal performance.

Yang Xuan placed the refined pills in front of the people who were assessing him. After the people from the Alchemist Assessment Institute inspected them, they had a brief discussion.

"The quality of the bone strengthening pill is 63, which is qualified."

The people from the Alchemist Examination Institute finally announced Yang Xuan’s alchemy results.

"Yang Xuan, you have successfully refined a product of acceptable quality, and your martial arts cultivation has surpassed the level of Yun Shen Bing. According to your previous performance in the Holy Land, you have been successfully promoted to the core disciple assessment this time."

"You will be my core disciple at the Juling Shendan Peak from now on. I hope you will continue to work hard."

Elder Zhao announced the results of the assessment of Yang Xuan's core disciples. Elder Zhao was from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and was responsible for the promotion of disciples at the Spirit Gathering Divine Pill Peak. Therefore, he came to the Alchemist Assessment Institute this time to watch Yang Xuan's alchemy process.

"This is your certificate as a core disciple. As for the belongings of other core disciples, you can go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to collect them." Elder Zhao took out an identity token, which was the identity token of a core disciple. This also meant that Yang Xuan would be a core disciple of the Juling Shendan Peak in the future.

The benefits he had enjoyed in advance also became reasonable!
"Thank you, elder!"

Yang Xuan took the new identity token and bowed to express his gratitude.

He was very happy to be successfully promoted to a core disciple.

He has taken a big step forward on the road to the Purple Mansion Holy Land!
Becoming a core disciple of the Juling Shendan Peak also means that his status and position in the Zifu Holy Land has risen again. This is of great help to Yang Xuan and is also within his arrangements.

After Yang Xuan came out of the Alchemist Assessment Institute, he went straight to the Internal Affairs Department of the Alchemy Pavilion!

After all, the time for distributing cultivation resources next month is very close, so now that he has been promoted to a core disciple, he can obtain more cultivation resources, which is also in line with the arrangement of Zifu Holy Land.

If you wait a few more days, it will be next month and you will miss a lot.

Even though he has become a disciple of Peak Master Yan Xulong, he does not have that many cultivation resources to obtain. He obtained a lot of cultivation resources in the previous sect competition, and Peak Master Yan Xulong also gave him some, but if he needs more, he has to rely on himself.

If he wants to improve his alchemy ability or martial arts skills, he will need a lot of cultivation resources, so he naturally has to make good use of the opportunities to obtain cultivation resources.

At the same time, Yang Xuan also planned to take on the task of refining bone-strengthening pills. Although he has been promoted to a core disciple, he is essentially still a new disciple, especially in alchemy, so he can still enjoy the support of the Juling Shendan Peak for new disciples.

After all, this is calculated by time, not by identity.

Therefore, Yang Xuan was able to obtain an additional batch of cultivation resources in addition to the task of refining the bone-strengthening pills.

Overall, the cultivation resources he can obtain are far more than when he was an inner disciple, and it can even be said that there is no comparison.

Even so, Yang Xuan had no intention of slacking off because he wanted more.

The Internal Affairs Department of Dan Pavilion is not close to the Alchemist Assessment Institute, but Yang Xuan's speed is not slow, mainly because he now has a flying boat in his hands, which is one of the resources given to him by Peak Master Yan Xulong, which has brought him a lot of convenience.

There is also a storage bracelet on his hand. These were originally the items that Yang Xuan wanted to exchange for by using the sect's contribution points, because they are very useful. However, after becoming a disciple of the peak master Yan Xulong, he got them directly!

Therefore, it is much more convenient for him whether he is traveling or carrying things.

Not long after, Yang Xuan arrived at the Dan Pavilion's Internal Affairs Department, and then went directly to the passage for handling the affairs of core disciples.

In the Dan Pavilion's Internal Affairs Department, there are many people in the inner disciple passage and they have to wait in a long line. However, when it comes to core disciples, the number of people is much smaller. Moreover, the people who handle affairs for core disciples have higher authority.

People of different identities will naturally be received by people of different identities.

Although Yang Xuan's clothes at this time were still those of an inner disciple, the identity token hanging around his waist was already the identity token of a core disciple!

Furthermore, Yang Xuan is now also a celebrity in the Juling Shendan Peak, and many people know him. Whether it is his performance in the previous sect competition or his apprenticeship to the peak master Yan Xulong, these are extremely important news and naturally have already spread in the Juling Shendan Peak!
When Yang Xuan went to the Xuri Pavilion to study, he could also feel the enthusiasm of the lecturers, not to mention those inner disciples!

He had just arrived at the Dan Pavilion's Internal Affairs Department and soon it was his turn.

There are not many core disciples in the Internal Affairs Department of Dan Pavilion. Of course, the number of core disciples in the Juling Shendan Peak is not as many as the inner disciples. The difference between the two numbers is too big, which also shows the difficulty of being promoted to a core disciple.

"Junior Brother Yang, are you here to receive the supplies for promotion to a core disciple?"

The person in charge of the core disciple passage of Dan Pavilion's Internal Affairs Department asked with a smile after seeing the identity token on Yang Xuan's waist.

Looking at Yang Xuan's appearance, one can guess the purpose of his trip.

After all, if Yang Xuan was still an inner disciple, he would basically not come to the passage for core disciples.

"This is the core disciple identity token that Elder Zhao gave me after I was promoted. Now I come here to receive the supplies for my promotion to a core disciple."

Yang Xuan took off the identity token from his waist and handed it to the person in charge of the core disciples here.

Although he is now a core disciple, he still lacks some things that a core disciple should have.

Just like the most obvious core disciple uniform, after being promoted to a core disciple, the inner disciple's green uniform must be changed to the core disciple's blue uniform. It is very obvious in the Purple Mansion Holy Land and can be seen at a glance.

At the same time, after being promoted to a core disciple, he can exchange for subsequent main cultivation techniques and some martial arts for free. These are the benefits of being promoted to a core disciple.

At the same time, whether it is the materials for the magical weapons or the materials for the magical powers, some discounts can be obtained for exchange. Treasures of this level will naturally not be given for free, and certain contributions must be made to obtain them.

The Dan Pavilion's Internal Affairs Office is offering some discounts, which is already very good. Overall, it can save a lot of sect contribution points.

The arrangement is different among the various inner gate mountains of the Purple Mansion Holy Land, but the arrangement here at the Soul Gathering Divine Dan Peak is relatively good!

Yang Xuan also gradually learned about these related information during this period of time.

After he came to Jinding Pavilion, he came into contact with many core disciples. To a certain extent, they were brothers, but the peak master Yan Xulong paid more attention to his direct disciples, so only the direct disciples had rankings, and disciples like them had no rankings.

Therefore, they call their direct disciples "senior brothers" and "senior sisters". Even if there are new people who are promoted to direct disciples, they still call them "senior brothers" and "senior sisters". Everyone wants to be promoted to a direct disciple.

But the difficulty of reaching this step is even greater. After all, the martial arts cultivation of the direct disciples is basically at the Divine Mansion realm. Even if they are not, it is almost the same. However, their alchemy ability and talent are very outstanding. They are at least fourth-level alchemists, so the conditions are very harsh.

The conditions for becoming a direct disciple that Peak Master Yan Xulong had previously mentioned to Yang Xuan were actually also the conditions set for these other core disciples. As long as they met the conditions, they could all become Peak Master Yan Xulong's direct disciples, and at that time they could also become true disciples of the Zifu Holy Land.

This step is very difficult. Even though these core disciples have stood out from many talented disciples, it is still extremely difficult to become true disciples. In the end, only a few can become direct disciples.

Therefore, Yang Xuan knew that becoming the disciple of Peak Master Yan Xulong was not a matter of sitting back and relaxing. People still had to rely on themselves in the end. He could only be considered to have Peak Master Yan Xulong as his backer now, but if he wanted to go further on the path of martial arts practice, he still had to rely more on himself.

The same goes for alchemy ability. There are not many opportunities to get guidance from Peak Master Yan Xulong, and it depends more on one's own alchemy talent.
