Chapter 48 Alchemy Assessment
"I want to learn alchemy recently. I wonder if there are any tasks related to alchemy?" Shi Yue said lightly.
"Alchemy?" Deacon Wang was slightly startled when he heard this.
"What? There are no tasks related to alchemy?" Shi Yue looked a little disappointed.
"That's not the case. Junior Brother Shi, wait a moment. I'll take a look." Deacon Wang shook his head and said.
After that, he gestured with the silver jade plate in his hand.
After a while, Deacon Wang looked up and said with a smile: "Brother Shi, there are three tasks related to alchemy now. The first one is that Uncle Chen of Huoyun Peak needs a furnace-watching disciple, 20 contribution points a month, and the additional reward is willingness to teach alchemy, but must stay with Uncle Zhang for more than 20 days a month, and eat, drink, defecate and urinate with Uncle Zhang; the second task is that the Shendan Hall of our sect needs an alchemy apprentice who can refine any of the three kinds of elixirs: Bigu Pill, Refining Qi Powder, and Nourishing Qi Pill. The contribution points depend on the number of elixirs submitted each month; the third one is that Uncle Liu of Cuiyun Peak needs a medicine-pounding boy, 20 contribution points a month, I wonder which task Brother Shi wants to choose."
"I'll choose the second one!" Shi Yue heard this, thought about it carefully, and said so.
The second task was tailor-made for him, so of course he chose the second task.
"Well, this is the token for receiving the task. Junior brother, take this token to report to the Shendan Hall. As long as you pass the assessment, you can receive this task." Deacon Wang nodded and said, he flipped his hand and took out a green token and handed it to Shi Yue.
"Assessment? What assessment?" Shi Yue was slightly stunned when he heard it.
"It means providing junior brother with some alchemy materials and letting him make the elixir. If he refines it, it will be considered as passing the assessment. If he fails to pass the assessment, he cannot receive this task. This is the rule set by the Shendan Hall." Deacon Wang explained.
Shi Yue nodded, thanked him, turned around and walked out.
After leaving the Deacon Hall, Shi Yue released the flying magic weapon and flew towards the location of the Shendan Hall.
After a cup of tea, Shi Yue landed at the foot of a giant peak. From time to time, a team of patrolling disciples passed over the giant peak. An endless green stone staircase extended to the foot of the mountain. From time to time, disciples walked up along this green stone staircase.
The mountainside was covered by a thick white fog, and the situation above the mountainside could not be seen clearly.
There was a stone tablet more than two meters high at the foot of the mountain, on which were written three large characters "Shendan Peak".
Shendan Peak was one of the major places of Taixu Sect. The pills sold by Taixu Sect were all made in Shendan Peak, and more than 90% of the alchemists of Taixu Sect made pills here. Therefore, there were not only many prohibitions here, but also several teams of patrolling disciples on guard and patrol nearby.
It is said that there was also a Jindan cultivator who was in seclusion in Shendan Peak all year round to deter the villains.
Shi Yue recalled the relevant information he knew and walked up the green stone stairs.
After a cup of tea, Shi Yue stood on the first step of the stone stairs, panting and looking at the endless green stone stairs in front of him. If someone hadn't walked out of the clouds and fog, he would have thought he had gone to the wrong place.
Shi Yue wiped the sweat from his face and continued to walk forward.
Half a minute later, Shi Yue stopped, and a layer of transparent light shield blocked his way.
Seeing this, Shi Yue raised his eyebrows. He remembered that his senior brother had passed through easily before, but why couldn't he do it here? Did he need to use magic power?
Shi Yue used his magic power and walked forward, but was still blocked by the transparent light shield.
At this moment, after a space fluctuation in front of him, two transparent passages suddenly appeared in front of him, just enough to accommodate one person in and out, and two disciples in red clothes walked out of the passage.
"Who are you? Don't you know that you need a token to enter and exit Shendan Peak?" A red-clothed disciple glanced at Shi Yue and said coldly.
"Token?" Shi Yue was slightly stunned, and hurriedly took out the token given by Deacon Wang.
"Not this, it's the token to enter and exit this place. Without the token to enter and exit Shendan Peak, you are not allowed to trespass, otherwise you will be killed without mercy." The red-clothed disciple said coldly.
"I received the mission from the Deacon Hall and came to the Shendan Hall to be an apprentice in alchemy." Shi Yue was startled when he heard this, and he hurriedly explained.
"You? Alchemy? Can you do it?" A red-clothed disciple asked with some doubt.
"I can make the Bigu Pill." Shi Yue replied truthfully.
"Brother Chen, take him to see Uncle Zhao," the disciple's face relaxed after hearing this, and he ordered another red-clothed disciple.
"Follow me," the red-clothed disciple said, and walked towards the transparent passage.
Seeing this, Shi Yue did not dare to neglect it, and hurriedly followed.
The situation behind the passage surprised Shi Yue greatly. A few dozen meters ahead, there was an unusually wide bluestone platform, on which stood a magnificent palace. On the plaque above the palace gate, three golden characters "Shendan Hall" were written in a flamboyant style.
There was no one guarding outside the palace, but there were two lion statues standing on both sides of the door, which were lifelike and black, as if they were made of fine iron.
"Follow me honestly. There are many restrictions here. If you violate the restrictions, even I can't save you," said the disciple named Chen coldly.
"I understand," Shi Yue nodded.
As soon as Shi Yue stepped onto the bluestone platform, he felt several powerful divine senses passing through him, and soon disappeared.
Shi Yue was startled, and then he realized that this was done by the disciples guarding this place. Despite this, he was still a little nervous and followed the red-clothed disciples honestly, fearing that he would trigger the restrictions here.
Walking into the hall, a wide hall of more than a hundred feet in size came into view, with a passage on each side, and no one knew where it led.
In the center of the hall stood a yellow wooden table with more than a dozen books on it. A middle-aged man with a bookish face and a middle-aged woman with ordinary facial features were sitting behind the wooden table and chatting. 鈥斺��
"Uncle Zhao, Uncle Wu, this one was sent by the Deacon Hall. He said he was here to be an apprentice in alchemy." The disciple surnamed Chen saluted the middle-aged man and the middle-aged woman, pointing at Shi Yue and said.
"Disciple Shi Yue pays respects to Master Uncle Zhao and Master Uncle Wu." Shi Yue stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
"What kind of elixir can you refine?" The middle-aged man looked at Shi Yue carefully and said with a frown.
In his opinion, Shi Yue, who was at the fourth level of Qi Refining, could not possibly know how to refine elixir. Many disciples were busy practicing when they were at the fourth level of Qi Refining!
"To reply to Master Uncle Zhao, I can refine the Bigu Pill." Shi Yue replied truthfully, with an extremely respectful look.
"Before you came, the deacon of the Deacon Hall told you! If you want to refine elixir here, you need to pass the assessment." The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes and said lightly.
"Disciple has heard about it, but I don't know how to assess it specifically. Please let Master Uncle Zhao show me." Shi Yue nodded and said.
"I'll give you five materials. If you can refine thirty-six Bigu Pills, you'll pass the test. If you can refine less than thirty-six Bigu Pills, you'll fail. But you have to pay for the spirit stones for these five materials yourself, five spirit stones for each, a total of twenty-five spirit stones." The middle-aged man said word by word.
Upon hearing this, Shi Yue nodded, took out twenty-five spirit stones from his storage bag, and handed them to the middle-aged man.
"Follow me." The middle-aged man put away the spirit stones, left a word, and walked towards the passage on the left.
Seeing this, Shi Yue did not dare to neglect it, and hurriedly followed him.
Not long after, the middle-aged man brought Shi Yue to a stone room.
The stone room was only more than ten feet in size, and there was a cushion and a red pill furnace inside.
"These are five materials for refining Bigu Pills. After two hours, you will pass the test if you hand in thirty-six Bigu Pills." The middle-aged man took out a leather bag from his arms, handed it to Shi Yue, and said lightly.
"Uncle Zhao, how can we make pills without fire?" Shi Yue hesitated for a moment and asked.
"Use spiritual charcoal. The pills made with spiritual charcoal are of better quality. There are five pieces of spiritual charcoal in total, all in the storage bag. One piece of spiritual charcoal can make a furnace of fasting pills. Okay, if there is nothing else, I will leave. I will come back in two hours." The middle-aged man said! Turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait, Uncle Zhao, don't you need to stay here to watch me make pills?" Shi Yue hurriedly stopped the middle-aged man and asked carefully.
"Why should I watch you make pills? Anyway, you can hand over thirty-six fasting pills to me in two hours. As for whether you made them or brought them with you, I am not interested in knowing. But I remind you that after becoming an apprentice in alchemy, I will give you a certain amount of materials every month. You need to refine a certain number of fasting pills. More rewards and less penalties. Don't cheat, otherwise you will suffer." The middle-aged man rolled his eyes and said meaningfully.
After saying that, he turned and left.
