Chapter 404: The preparations before the pre-selection
Translator: 549690339
Shi Wanli was not surprised.
Although Master Wang Gao was young, his alchemy skills were very high.
However, perhaps it was because he had been hiding in the infinite fathomless sea, a place where good and bad people mixed together, and Master Wang Gao was extremely vigilant and had hidden himself very well. Under such circumstances, it was natural that he could not obtain any good alchemy furnaces.
Now that he had arrived at dynasty and had to attend the pill ceremony, he naturally couldn’t just make do with food.
However, although bamboo city was prosperous, it was not a County city, let alone a capital city. Now that the alchemy ceremony was approaching, although there were many places selling pill furnaces in the city, the quality of the pill furnaces was average.
After all, a situation like Wang Gao’s was rare.
Under most circumstances, the pill furnace in the hands of a brilliant pill refiner would not be too bad.
There was no need to change it for the pill discussion ceremony.
There were even some alchemists who, even if they encountered a better furnace during the ceremony, would not easily change it.
The reason was very simple-The Alchemist and the pill furnace they were used to had already been used to each other and formed a tacit understanding.
If he were to change it rashly, it would mean that he would have to familiarize himself with the characteristics of the new pill furnace from the beginning.
And in the process of refining pills, the medicinal properties were compatible, and often a slight loss could lead to a thousand miles of error.
It was possible that he would be defeated because he had changed to a better but unfamiliar pill furnace, thus missing out on the generous rewards and various opportunities.
If he really wanted to trade, he would go to the imperial capital, or at least a County city, where he would spend a lot of time searching for a pill furnace that was most suitable for him.
Wang Gao’s pill furnace was too inferior. Secondly, his alchemy skills were extremely high. Changing the furnace at the last minute would not affect the other party’s performance in the selection.
Therefore, it became a special case.
“Don’t worry, Master Wang, leave this to me!” Shi Wanli said.
“Before you leave tomorrow, I will definitely prepare all the pill furnaces you need.”
“Thank you, tower master.” PEI Ling hurriedly said. They were not in the middle of the vast ocean, but had entered the glazed tile Empire, where all the alchemists in the world gathered!
Even in this bamboo city, the number of alchemists was not small!
Moreover, there was also the hundred worker banner. Since it was in charge of The Alchemist grade assessment, there would obviously be alchemists overseeing it!
What if the system controlled him to snatch another Alchemist’s furnace in front of everyone just because his furnace was too inferior?
Therefore, he had to get a good quality pill furnace before the selection!
At this time, he couldn’t care about being more involved with Shi Wanli.
After all, PEI Ling was unfamiliar with the people and the place in Ying city, while the other party was Chan tower’s branch master. He would definitely have more methods than him.
As he spoke, Shi Wanli led PEI Ling into a quiet street.
It didn’t take long before they stopped in front of a house with Vermillion beast hoops and embroidered high walls.
The exterior of this house didn’t look particularly luxurious, but it exuded a sense of simplicity and elegance.
As the two approached, the eyes of the beast hoop on the door flashed with a faint light. Immediately after, the door opened silently, accompanied by the beast hoop’s solicitous greeting.”Old master is back?”
Shi Wanli responded, took out a spirit stone, and handed it over. The beast hoop was overjoyed, and quickly chewed it.
Seeing that PEI Ling seemed to be a little curious about the beast Ring, he explained, ” &Quot; this is from the hundred worker Gu. If Master Wang is interested, you can take a look around after you arrive at the hundred worker Gu tomorrow. &Quot;
However, if he really went to the hundred worker Gu, it was uncertain whether he would stay for too long.
After all, he had yet to refine faceless blood’s magic treasure.
After passing through the courtyard, they soon arrived at the main hall.
At this moment, a white-faced old man with a long beard hurried out of the backyard to welcome them. &Quot; “Old master is back!”
“Butler Hao.” Shi Wanli nodded and was about to introduce the novelty of the furnishings in the main hall to PEI Ling when he suddenly had an idea and immediately apologized, ” “Master Wang, I have some matters to attend to, so I’m afraid I’ll have to excuse myself for a moment. Please forgive me, Grandmaster!”
As he spoke, he ordered Butler Hao to take care of PEI Ling on his behalf, to make Master Wang feel as though he was a guest.
After apologizing again, Shi Wanli left in a hurry.
Since the master was so serious about this matter, Butler Hao naturally did not dare to neglect it. He respectfully invited PEI Ling to the guest courtyard to settle down and sent someone to serve tea and spirit fruits. He asked carefully,”May I ask if there are any other orders?”
“Butler Hao.” PEI Ling immediately said, ” I want to refine a few cauldrons of medicinal pills. I wonder if there’s a more quiet place? ”
“There’s a special alchemy room in my house, but the master isn’t good at alchemy, so it’s been empty for a long time,” Butler Hao quickly said. If you don’t mind, you can go now.”
After obtaining PEI Ling’s approval, he led PEI Ling through several courtyards and arrived in front of an alchemy room.
Although this elixir room had not been used for a long time, the array formation inside and outside had always been maintained. At this moment, when Butler Hao opened the array formation, the dust inside completely disappeared in an instant. In just a short moment, everything in sight was as good as new!
After PEI Ling thanked Butler Hao, he walked into the alchemy room and immediately closed the door behind him.
Then, he walked around and checked inch by inch, but he didn’t find any problems.
Even so, PEI Ling was still worried.
He muttered to himself for a moment before his expression suddenly changed. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he immediately “fainted” on the ground …
After waiting for a full hour and seeing that no one had appeared, PEI Ling finally stood up in relief.
‘It seems like there shouldn’t be anyone watching us in secret …’ He thought to himself. Then, he immediately took out the voice transmission talisman that li wumei had given him and activated it.
However, he did not know if it was because they were too far away or for other reasons, but PEI Ling did not see any response from the voice transmission talisman even after waiting for a long time.
It was obvious that li wumei was uncontactable at the moment.
Seeing this, PEI Ling frowned.
Why did senior li suddenly look for him last time?
He couldn’t contact her at the moment, so he hoped that he didn’t miss anything important …
As he thought of this, PEI Ling composed himself and temporarily put this matter aside. He took out the pill furnace but did not immediately seize it. Instead, he immediately took out a large pile of colorful pills.
These were all poison pills!
As for their origins, most of them came from the outer sect competition and the battle of Luquan City.
A small number of them were collected by the disciples of the heaven born sect when they were doing the mission.
These things had been in PEI Ling’s hands for quite a few days and had never been put to use. However, at this moment, they just so happened to be of use!
PEI Ling then took out the various ingredients needed to concoct the dreamless powder, and carefully selected a vermillion red poison pill to swallow.”System, I want to cultivate! He seized [ alchemy-dreamless powder ] with one click.”
The system responded quickly as usual, ” “Ding dong! The intelligent cultivation system is at your service! With one click of the key, it upgraded its intelligence! [ seizing cultivation begins now. A thoughtful reminder: ] During the cultivation period, the host will lose control of his body. Please do not panic …”
The feeling of losing control of his body came, and the system lit up the cold essence fire with great familiarity. It then started to light up the pill furnace and process the medicinal ingredients …
However, just as the pill refinement that was as smooth as floating clouds and flowing water was halfway done, PEI Ling’s abdomen suddenly felt a sharp pain that was like a knife cutting through the air!
In the next moment, the system’s warning tone sounded.”Ding dong! [ host has been detected to be poisoned. This cultivation session ends here. ] Thank you, host, for using the intelligent cultivation system. With one click of the button, you can ascend without worry! Please give me a five-star rating if you are satisfied …”
After regaining control of his body, PEI Ling immediately consumed a pill to detoxify the poison. Then, he automatically activated the [ burning night chapter ], and the poison was quickly dissolved.
