Chapter 450

In the next few days, Gu Ding's medicine refining speed became faster and faster. Thirty-six kinds of deity-level medicine were all refined by him in a week. Only three kinds of medicine were refined to perfect quality, and the rest were all of ultimate quality.

What he did not know was that these days, the entire process of his medicine refining had exploded in the Medicine King Valley's video area. However, in order to protect personal privacy, the Medicine King Valley higher-ups had censored Gu Ding's face in the video. Moreover, the refining room number and any information that could be traced back to Gu Ding's identity were all blocked.

Only pharmacologists with extremely high authority in the Medicine King Valley could see it, and there were less than twenty of them in total.

At this time, they were gathered around a table for a meeting.

"Venerable Medicine, what do you mean by stopping us from accepting apprentices? They don't dare to speak, but I'll take advantage of this meeting today to say it. When it comes to medicine refining, you're not better than me. If you really want to snatch an apprentice, we'll see who's better. "A bearded man in a red robe slammed the table.

"I also want to accept a male apprentice recently. Venerable Medicine, if your explanation doesn't satisfy us, I'll have to step in." A beautiful woman in a black dress smiled faintly.

"Palace Lord Beiming, I gave you a female apprentice last time. Don't fight with me over this." The Imperial Fire Temple Lord seemed to be a little afraid of the woman.

"That girl last time, you obviously lost to me in medicine refining. Since when did you give her to me?" Palace Lord Beiming was obviously not a kind person.

"Don't worry, I gathered everyone this time because of this matter." Venerable Medicine smiled bitterly. He knew that the Imperial Fire Temple Lord had a bad temper. The other party's level of medicine refining was not worse than his, and in terms of martial arts cultivation, he was also one of the best among those present. As for Palace Lord Beiming, although she was a woman, her cultivation and medicine refining were not weaker than the Imperial Fire Temple Lord. She was also not someone to be trifled with.

"The reason why I stopped everyone from accepting apprentices is not because I want to. It's because of my teacher … "Venerable Medicine looked at everyone helplessly." The video of the young man refining medicine for the first time was accidentally seen by the old man, and he asked me for the young man's information. "

"You're saying, it's Lord Medicine Ancestor?!" A hint of surprise flashed across Palace Mistress North's beautiful eyes.

"Venerable Medicine, you aren't lying to us, are you?" The Lord of the Imperial Fire Palace appeared to be more suspicious. His eyes stared fixedly at Venerable Medicine as if he was trying to find a flaw.

"Do you think I would dare to fool you when it concerns my teacher?" Venerable Medicine glared at the Imperial Fire Palace Master.

"Then what did he say?" Beiming Palace Master seemed to be unwilling to give up.

"He only asked me for the young man's information and didn't say anything else. That's why it's so difficult for me." Venerable Medicine was also having a headache over this problem because there were now many famous pharmacologists eyeing Gu Ding and wanting to take him in as their apprentice. However, he could not snatch Gu Ding away, let alone make the decision for his master. "Teacher is probably still inspecting him. We can only wait."

"How long does this kind of inspection usually take?" The Imperial Fire Palace Master frowned slightly and looked at Venerable Medicine.

"I don't know either. I'm just Master's disciple in name. You know that too." Venerable Medicine was not afraid of this kind of thing. Instead, his identity as a disciple in name had always been envied by countless pharmacologists.

"Looks like we can only wait. I don't have the guts to snatch Master Medicine Ancestor's apprentice." Beiming Palace Master also smiled bitterly.

"Venerable Medicine, if Master Medicine Ancestor has news and is not willing to take him in as an apprentice, you can't eat it alone. Everyone will compete fairly." The Imperial Fire Palace Master warned, "Otherwise, the rest of us can only go to your Spirit Mountain Medicine Hut and tear it down."

"No, absolutely not. Everyone will compete fairly. Fair competition!" Venerable Medicine was so scared that he quickly waved his hand. He knew that the Imperial Fire Palace Master used to be an Interstellar Pirate and could do anything. Now, he was considered an overlord in the Grand Cosmic Sea, but his Interstellar Pirate nature had not changed much.

"Then it's settled. No one is allowed to snatch first. Whoever makes a move first, the rest of us will tear down their house." Beiming Palace Master's beautiful eyes also swept across the crowd. She had finally reached a consensus with the Imperial Fire Palace Master.

The three big shots of Medicine King Valley had reached a consensus, and the others did not raise any objections. After all, the Medicine Ancestor's name was too scary, so they could only wait.

Gu Ding naturally did not know that he had caused such a big storm. After confirming that there was no problem with his refinement and that there were only flaws in the herbs, he went to the assessment hall again. After a relaxed assessment, he got the first-class Deity Pharmacologist's token and walked toward the material warehouse.

When the warehouse manager saw Gu Ding appear again, he thought to himself, 'Little guy, you're here to collect the materials again. You're refining thirty-six kinds of medicine and only need three sets of materials.'

However, when he saw Gu Ding's new token, he rubbed his eyes hard. "You … You've been promoted to a Deity Pharmacologist?!"

"Yes." Gu Ding grinned.

"Uh … What materials do you want this time?" The old man's attitude finally improved.

"Forty-one kinds of common medicine materials for second-class Deity Pharmacology. Three sets of each." Gu Ding still asked for three sets.

Since his promotion to Deity Pharmacologist assessment result was still excellent, Gu Ding still enjoyed his previous privileges.

After collecting the medicine, Gu Ding returned to the refinement hall. It was still the little girl who registered at the front desk.

"You've been promoted to Deity Pharmacologist so quickly?" The little girl was a little surprised because when she received Gu Ding's token a few days ago, he was still an S-level pharmacologist. At that time, according to the system records, it was the first time the young man had stepped into a private refinement room.

"I've reached the required soul and physical strength. It won't be difficult to break through with a little practice." Gu Ding was very modest.

However, when the little girl took the token and saw that the assessment result was still excellent, she knew that the young man in front of her was not as simple as he seemed. "The number of free uses is still one hundred times. It doesn't stack with the previous number. Room 2688 in East End."

Just as Gu Ding was about to leave, the little girl seemed to remember something. "Recently, there have been a few videos of expert pharmacologists in the video section. You should take some time to watch them. It should be helpful for your medicine refining."

"What's the name of the video?" Gu Ding was a little interested and could not help but ask.

"I don't really remember the name, but those videos have been in the top few of the monthly hits. There are seven of them in total, and the top seven are all of them." The little girl could not remember the name and taught Gu Ding a simple method.

"Thank you, I'll watch them when I have time." Gu Ding nodded with a smile and walked away.

In the private refinement room, he started the medicine refining again. With the experience of refining first-class divinity medicine, his refining movements were much more proficient, but his refining speed was not much faster. It took him almost an hour to refine a tube of medicine. In one day, he only refined fourteen tubes of medicine, a total of seven kinds, all of which were of ultimate quality.

The reason why his refining speed did not increase too much was that second-class medicine had a higher requirement for speed, which resulted in a heavier burden on the body.

Gu Ding's refining that day was recorded again and sent to the video section.

The little girl watched the video again, but this time, her eyes fell on the clothes of the man in the video. "These clothes look like they're worn by that young man …"

After staring at the video for a long time, she finally confirmed that the man in the video was Gu Ding and was a little surprised. She did not expect that the young man who looked younger than her would be such a powerful pharmacologist.

The people who worked in Medicine King Valley were basically pharmacologists or people who had a vision of being a pharmacologist. As for this girl, she was a rather talented pharmacist. She was already S-rank, but no one knew when she would be able to break through to the god-rank. They were naturally envious of geniuses like Gu Ding who could easily refine God-level medicine of ultimate quality.

Another week passed and Gu Ding finally finished refining all forty-one second-class conventional divinity medicines. Among them, three were of perfect quality and the rest were all ultimate quality. At this point, Gu Ding had officially become a second-class divinity pharmacologist.

After taking the assessment in Medicine King Valley, Gu Ding withdrew from Medicine King Valley completely. With his current soul strength and physical strength, he was still far from being able to refine third-class divinity medicines. He knew this very well.

Second-class divinity medicines were suitable for middle deities. With this pharmacologist identity, Gu Ding could finally do something for the others in the crew. Only then did he step into Robert's domain. Using the medicine materials he had purchased on Treasure Island, he began to refine medicines that everyone could use in batches and asked Robert to help distribute them.

With enough medicine, everyone's strength had improved slightly. After all, fifteen days had passed in the outside world. In Robert's domain, it had been a full four hundred and fifty days.

Biggie's physical strength had been upgraded to that of a seven-star middle deity, and his soul strength had also been upgraded to that of a five-star middle deity. His cultivation had also reached the peak of a lower deity, and he was only one step away from becoming a middle deity. His combat effectiveness had been greatly improved, and he was almost on par with Gu Ding.

Lilliath's physical body had also reached the standard of a seven-star lower deity, and she had almost mastered the half-step true god-level inheritance after more than a year of cultivation. Ordinary 1-star extreme deities would not be able to withstand her Pupillary Abilities.

Dockett had also mastered most of the Crimson Blood Beast inheritance in the past year. His martial arts realm had also reached Minor Accomplishment, and he was not far from Great Accomplishment. He could even fight a 2-star extreme deity.

Erza's martial arts realm had reached Minor Accomplishment and was no weaker than Gu Ding's. Her originally weak soul had also been strengthened to the strength of a 5-star middle deity. As long as she did not encounter a 2-star extreme deity who specialized in souls, she would be able to fight them.

Mikko's cultivation speed was the most terrifying. He had already reached demigod level, which was the same as Gu Ding and the others. Neptune had also taught him a few sets of soul-related techniques and many ancient formations. With enough Energy Crystal Ores, it would not be difficult for those formations to trap and kill four or five middle deities.

As for Faust, although he was a demigod, he had never participated in many battles. However, it turned out that his martial arts talent was actually quite good. He had basically mastered all the techniques that Alfred had taught him. Moreover, his family had originally passed down a set of staff techniques called Sky Piercer, which was no weaker than Gu Ding's Imperial Manifestation of Nature, and might even be higher. After Biggie and the others' hellish training, his combat effectiveness was now comparable to a 3-star or 4-star middle deity.

Even that foodie Tagore's aura had obviously become stronger despite not having a breakthrough in his cultivation.

In addition to the improvement in cultivation, Robert had also prepared some equipment for everyone, including a set of 4-star god item flying daggers for Dockett, a 4-star god item long staff and a 4-star armor for Faust, and a set of armor for Mikko.

At this point, almost everyone in Gu Ding's crew's combat effectiveness had increased by a level.
