Chapter 324 Xuan Kongzi's Guess! Identity Revealed! The Recipe for the Elixir Is Finally Obtained!
After bowing to Chu Yang, Cao Ying looked at Xuan Kongzi and said quickly:
"Teacher, Elder Xuanyi has something important to ask you!"
Xuan Kongzi frowned, then looked at Chu Yang and said apologetically: "Mr. Chu Yang..."
Chu Yang directly raised his hand to interrupt him, and said with a smile: "Since senior has something to do, just go and do it. I will just wait here."
Xuan Kongzi thought for a while, walked to the display rack not far away, took down a few scrolls, placed them in front of Chu Yang, and then said: "These are some prescriptions for eighth-grade elixirs. They are not precious things. Mr. Chu Yang can look through it as he likes, I’ll be back as soon as I can!”
Chu Yang's eyes lit up, he picked up the scroll and started reading.
But at this moment, another figure rushed in, and before the person arrived, the voice fell into everyone's ears.
"Xuan Kongzi, you are so arrogant. I have something to ask you for, but you still have to ask for me over and over again!"
Xuan Kongzi's expression froze, and he smiled bitterly at Chu Yang. Then he raised his head and said to the person coming: "Xuanyi, at your age, can't you act more calmly?"
"No wonder that old guy looked down on you back then!"
The visitor was a beautiful woman who looked to be thirty years old and was wearing a cheongsam.
Hearing Xuan Kongzi's words, her already gloomy face suddenly became even more ugly, and her eyebrows stood up, "Xuan Kongzi, do you believe that I have fallen out with you?"
After saying that, she noticed that there were outsiders here, and her expression softened slightly, "If it weren't for something important, how could I be so urgent?"
While the two of them were talking, Chu Yang had already written down all the elixir prescriptions through Pangu, and gently placed the scroll on the table.
Xuan Kongzi coughed lightly, and then said: "Mr. Chu Yang, this is Xuan Yi. His cultivation and medicine refining level are almost the same as mine."
"She is not like this on weekdays. It turns out that she was indeed in an emergency, which made her laugh."
Chu Yang smiled politely and said: "The juniors have long heard of Senior Xuanyi's name, but I didn't expect that the seniors are so young..."
No matter how old a woman is, it will be extremely helpful when someone compliments her on how young she is.
Chu Yang's two casual words relieved the slightly awkward atmosphere.
Xuan Yi also said hello to Chu Yang and kept looking at him at the same time.
Like Cao Ying, she realized that Chu Yang was definitely an extraordinary person from Xuan Kongzi's attitude and title.
"In all these years, except for the old guy, I have never seen you so nervous. Take me to see what happened!"
Xuan Kongzi glanced at Xuan Yi. With two outsiders, Chu Yang and Tang Huo'er, present, this was obviously not the place to talk.
As a result, the two of them walked out of the room directly. After turning a few corners, Xuan Yi raised his hand to form a soul barrier to isolate outside detection, and then said with a solemn expression:
"Do you still remember what happened in the northwest region?"
Xuan Kongzi nodded and said: "Of course I remember that in the Jiama Empire in the northwest region, there was a monster. He showed his Dou Zun cultivation at the age of sixteen, and broke through the Dou Saint before he was eighteen. He even killed ancient tribes, Three powerful fighting saints from the Stone Clan and the Spirit Clan!”
"This matter has spread a lot in the mainland. I remember that you have always been responsible for investigating the situation in the northwest region. Could it be that something happened again?"
Xuan Kongzi was a little confused. This matter had nothing to do with the Dan Pagoda. After all, no matter how defiant the monster was, he was just cultivating his talent.
Moreover, the grievances between the other party and the three ancient clans have nothing to do with Danta.
In this case, why should Xuan Yi be so anxious about this?
Xuan Yi took a deep breath and said: "I got the exact news from the northwest region. In addition to his cultivation talent, that monster also has a terrifyingly high talent in refining medicine!"
"It only took him a month to break through from a layman to a sixth-level alchemist!"
"In order to try to win over it, I conducted a comprehensive investigation into the situation of the Gama Empire..."
Xuan Kongzi couldn't listen to what Xuan Yi said at all. His mind was filled with thoughts of a layman breaking through to the sixth level of alchemist in one month.
Where is the monster here?
Even if the Medicine Emperor is reincarnated, it's nothing more than this, right?
"Did you listen to me?" Seeing him looking like he was in a state of confusion, Xuan Yi was unhappy.
Xuan Kongzi came back to his senses and asked blankly: "What did you say?"
Xuan Yi gritted his teeth in anger, but he also knew how horrifying the evildoer's deeds were, so he could only repeat what he said next.
"I just said that during the process of investigating the Jia Ma Empire, I got news about Yao Chen!"
"He took in a new disciple there, and that disciple's talent is really amazing..."
Xuan Kongzi's eyes widened, "Have you found that old guy?"
Xuan Yi shook his head sadly and said, "No, he was caught by the people from the Soul Palace, and his life or death is unknown now."
"But I guess that since the Soul Palace spent so much effort to capture him, it will definitely not kill him easily."
"I'm going to save him and I need your help!"
Xuan Kongzi was silent for a long time, and then said: "Of course I won't stand by and watch this happen, but the Soul Palace has always been mysterious, and I'm afraid we won't be able to find people easily."
"In a while, the Alchemy Meeting will begin, and the matter of Three Thousand Yan Yanhuo is imminent."
"So no matter what, the rescue of Yao Chen will have to wait until the Dan meeting is over."
Xuan Yi nodded and said, "I understand the importance."
So the two of them returned along the way. When they were about to reach the door, Xuan Kongzi seemed to have remembered something and suddenly asked:
"By the way, what's the name of that evildoer from the Gama Empire?"
Xuan Yi said without hesitation: "Chu Yang!"
But as soon as she finished speaking, the two of them widened their eyes and looked forward at the same time.
Isn't the young man sitting in the room behind the door named "Chu Yang"?
Xuan Yi opened his mouth and murmured, "It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
Xuan Kongzi smiled bitterly and said, "I was wondering before, when did Zhongzhou have such a person, who has both Dou Sheng strength and unfathomable soul background."
"I think he and Chu Yang in the northwest region are most likely the same person!"
"I just didn't expect that he would take the initiative to find us before we took any action. I don't know if it's good or bad?"
Xuan Yi stopped and frowned and asked, "Why did he come to Danta?"
Xuan Kongzi's expression was a little strange, "I came to ask for the recipe of the pill!"
"I was a little suspicious before, thinking he had other purposes."
"But now it seems that he has such a monstrous talent for alchemy. With the rapid progress of alchemy, it is reasonable that he has no time to accumulate the foundation."
"That's why I am sure that he is Chu Yang from the Jia Ma Empire!"
In the room, Cao Ying pulled Tang Huo'er to chat with him.
Chu Yang walked to the display stand, looked at the scrolls listed on it, and picked up a scroll from time to time to read.
Cao Ying did not stop him. As Xuan Kongzi said, most of these scrolls were recipes for pills, which were not rare and even had no value.
These recipes could only work in the hands of high-quality alchemists.
In the alchemy circle of Douqi Continent, recipes were everywhere, but there was a lack of high-quality alchemists who could make them.
But when Cao Ying saw that Chu Yang had set his sights on the recipe for the ninth-grade pill, her eyelids twitched.
Cao Ying remembered that the teacher had said that in order to prevent someone from overestimating their own abilities and forcibly trying to make high-quality pills, which would cause them to suffer backlash, he left different levels of restrictions on the scrolls that recorded the recipes for pills above the seventh grade.
Chu Yang was able to open the scroll lightly, and it was obvious that he had broken the restrictions without any effort.
The restrictions on the ninth-grade pill recipe were imposed by the teacher with all his strength!
How strong is the soul restriction set by an eighth-grade peak alchemist?
Cao Ying had not been exposed to that level, so she could not measure it, but she was sure that even if Chu Yang was not a pharmacist at the same level as her teacher, at least his soul power was at the same level!
At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open, and Xuan Kongzi and Xuan Yi walked in side by side.
Seeing Chu Yang next to the display stand, both of them looked at each other, and Xuan Kongzi stepped forward and said with a smile: "Mr. Chu Yang, I have kept you waiting for a long time."
Chu Yang put down the scroll, shook his head and smiled: "It's okay, but after reading the recipes of those eighth-grade pills, I looked through the ninth-grade recipes without your permission, I hope you will forgive me."
The two of them exchanged a few words, and then sat at the table and chatted about this and that, while Xuan Yi sat next to them without saying a word, occasionally looking at Chu Yang a few times.
After chatting for a while, Xuan Kongzi suddenly asked: "I wonder how old Mr. Chu Yang is?"
As soon as this was said, everyone in the room, except Chu Yang, held their breath and focused their eyes on him.
Although Tang Huoer knew Chu Yang was very young, she didn't know his specific abilities, so she was a little curious.
Cao Ying had always thought that Chu Yang was an old monster who had the ability to keep his youth, but after hearing the teacher's question, she felt something was wrong and became curious.
Xuan Kongzi and Xuan Yi were looking forward to Chu Yang's answer, wanting to use this to thoroughly confirm whether the Chu Yang in front of them and the Chu Yang of the Gama Empire were the same person?
"I will be eighteen in a few days." Chu Yang took a sip of tea and said lightly.
When this was said, everyone opened their mouths and was stunned.
Xuan Yi was the first to react. He stood up and bowed to Chu Yang, and said in a deep voice: "May I ask, little friend Chu Yang, are you from the Gama Empire?"
Cao Ying's eyes suddenly lit up. She had also heard about the Gama Empire and instantly thought of Chu Yang's identity.
Chu Yang nodded, "I am indeed from the Jia Ma Empire. I wonder why Senior Xuan Yi is so kind?"
Xuan Yi looked at him with hope, "Have you ever heard of Yao Chen?"
Chu Yang finally understood why this Danta giant had been absent-minded. He didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "I've heard that Xiao Yan had some conflicts with my Yun Lan Sect. He is Xiao Yan's teacher."
"But Mr. Yao fell into the hands of the Soul Palace. Many people in the Jia Ma Empire also know about this."
All the news was confirmed. Xuan Yi gritted his teeth and murmured, "Soul Palace..."
Xuan Kongzi stared at Chu Yang and asked, "I wonder what rank of alchemist you are now?"
Chu Yang said frankly, "It is considered to be the peak of the eighth rank, but due to the lack of pill formulas, it is always difficult to enter the ninth rank."
There was a sound of gasps in the room. Even Tang Huo'er didn't expect that his teacher's alchemy level would be so high!
Everything was laid out on the table, so Chu Yang no longer hid anything and said frankly: "Two seniors, I came to Danta for the recipes and resources."
"I need a lot of recipes, and I want Danta to provide me with the herbs needed for refining."
"As a condition, I will give half of the pills I refine to Danta as the cost of purchasing the herbs."
"In addition, I owe Danta a favor for this matter. If you need anything in the future, just come to me."
If it were any other young man who said this in front of the two giants of Danta, Xuan Kongzi and Xuan Yi would definitely sneer.
Although a favor from a Dou Sheng is very valuable, it can be said that Danta has influence on the mainland. Just relying on this point to want to eat and get something for free in Danta is nothing but a daydream.
But Chu Yang is different!
Even if we put aside his identity as an eighth-grade peak alchemist and his demon-level alchemy talent, his cultivation talent alone is enough to make Danta pay attention.
As I said, as long as Chu Yang does not die young, he will definitely become a top powerhouse in the future!
From any angle, this deal is a huge profit for Danta, but there is also a crucial problem...
That is the conflict between Chu Yang and the three ancient tribes!
If Danta is on good terms with Chu Yang, it is very likely that the three ancient tribes will be angry with him, or even stand on the opposite side of them.
Xuan Kongzi thought for a moment, and then said carefully: "My friend, I think you know that in order to support an alchemist to break through the ninth grade, the resources needed will be extremely huge."
"So I can't make the decision on this matter yet, I need to ask the elder for instructions."
"But don't worry about the pill formula, the pill formula in my Danta will be fully open to you!"
In fact, half of what he said was an excuse, just to ask a higher-level big shot to make the decision. After all, it might offend the three ancient tribes, and he didn't dare to make his own decision.
Chu Yang bowed politely and said: "In that case, thank you, Elder Xuan."
The word "Elder Xuan" further brought the relationship closer.
So, in the next few days, Chu Yang read almost all the pill formulas collected by Danta, and completely made up for his shortcomings in this regard.
Ninth-grade pills can be said to be a qualitative change, transcending the level of eighth-grade pills, and even transcending the ordinary concept of refining medicine.
It is better to say that it is a process of creating life rather than refining medicine.
Because most of the ninth-grade elixirs can give birth to spiritual intelligence and even transform into life.
Dan Tong is actually a special case. Chu Yang added extreme substances during the refining process. Otherwise, an eighth-grade elixir would never directly transform into a living being.
Even if it is a ninth-grade elixir, it needs opportunities to completely transform into life.
For example, the ancestor of the Dan Tower, his body is a ninth-grade Xuandan, but the alchemist who refined him died of exhaustion at the moment the elixir was completed.
When he died, a trace of spiritual intelligence was integrated into the elixir, which led to the mutation and prompted the elixir to turn into life.
The imperial elixir above has wisdom that is not inferior to that of humans, and can truly practice independently and become stronger.
It can be said that the ninth-grade elixir is a whole new level, which is one of the reasons why Chu Yang is interested in alchemy.
He wants to take this as the basis, and combine the means of various worlds to tinker with something shocking! (End of this chapter)
