The Phoenix Arises

Chapter 45.3: Acknowledge as Master

Looking at the temperament of this lass, it shouldn’t be so.

A glint flashed by Duanmu Xi’s eyes.

“Does Master know of the Origin Restoration Elixir?”

“The heavenly level second stage elixir?”

Situ Kong was somewhat startled, his little disciple was not simple. An ordinary person would not know of such an elixir.

“Lass, you are asking this…”

When Duanmu Xi heard him, she was ecstatic, it seems that Master knows of this elixir.

“Master, your disciple needs this Origin Restoration Elixir to save a loved one.”

It turned out to be so, Situ Kong nodded his head.

“Does Master know what’s needed to refine the Origin Restoration Elixir?”

Duanmu Xi looked at Situ Kong with a face full of anticipation.

Situ Kong nodded his head, “I’ve seen it in the medical book before, to refine the Origin Restoration Elixir, it requires materials of seven different elements. For the wood element, the Nourishing Soul Grass, the wind element – Amethyst Restoration Fruit, the thunder element – Azure Thunder Mushroom, the fire element – the Blood Spirit Ginseng, the water element – Millennium Water Lily, the ice element – Ten Thousand Year Glacial Ice, and lastly, the spirit core of a seventh grade earth element spirit beast.”

Duanmu Xi frowned, she has never even heard of any of these materials before.

She looked down and contemplated for a moment before she asked: “Does Master know where these can be found?”

Situ Kong frowned. “The only thing that the Master knows about is the Azure Thunder Mushroom. It can be found at the Alchemist Guild. As for the rest, I only have a rough idea.”

A glint flashed by her eyes, the mysterious Alchemist Guild?

“Has Master ever been to the Alchemist Guild?”

Situ Kong’s lips curled up, “Lass, if you want to go to the Alchemist Guild, I can take you there right now.”

…Didn’t they say that the Alchemist Guild was very mysterious?

From the way her Master had said it, how did it make it sound as if it was a place that one could enter freely at will?

“It’s just…” Situ Kong suddenly said.

“What is it?”

Duanmu was suddenly anxious.

“It’s just that even if you go to the Alchemist Guild, you can’t get Azure Thunder Mushroom.”

Even if he was a great elder of the Alchemist Guild, he could not freely take the high quality medicinal materials of the Alchemist Guild.

Duanmu Xi was stunned momentarily, if she could not get it from the Alchemist Guild, then what should she do?

When Situ Kong saw that Duanmu’s face was filled with disappointment, he could not bear it and continued on, “But it’s not completely impossible.”

“Master has a solution?”

Duanmu Xi looked up and stared at him with wide eyes filled with anticipation.

Situ Kong stroked his beard.

“Participate in the Alchemy Competition of the Alchemist Guild. If you win the competition, you can make a request to the Alchemist Guild. As long as it is not too demanding, the Alchemist Guild will usually agree to it.”

…What kind of method was this?

Duanmu Xi revealed the disappointment on her face. She could not even be considered an Alchemist yet, she had yet to embark on her journey so how was she to win against those from the Alchemist Guild?

When Situ Kong saw Duanmu Xi’s little dejected face, he smiled and said: “Lass, are you not confident in this Master, or are you not confident in yourself?”

Hearing the words of Situ Kong’s words, Duanmu Xi shook her head.

“When is the competition of the Alchemist Guild?”

“It’s too late for you to participate in this year’s competition. After you’ve raised your level, next year would be better because one can only participate once in this competition.”

For him, he only participated in the Alchemist Competition when he reached the black rank.

Next year?

Duanmu Xi raised her eyebrows, the timing was considerable.

“Master, please start teaching me alchemy from tomorrow.”

“All right, all right.”

Situ Kong heard that Duanmu Xi wanted to learn alchemy tomorrow and nodded his head happily.
