Chapter 207: The deacon makes things difficult, and the alchemy test (please subscribe!)

“I’ve met all the senior brothers!”

Although Chu Ning was a little surprised that there were nearly a hundred people in the alchemy pavilion hall, he still bowed his hands to everyone with calm expressions.

He Yanmao also vaguely felt at this moment that it was really inappropriate for the people in the Alchemy Pavilion to mobilize their troops like this.

Hei Hei showed a kind smile on his face and said to Chu Ning:

“Junior Brother Chu, you have met several of our deacons before.

But you haven’t met the other senior brothers and Qi Refining disciples yet. When they heard that you were coming, everyone wanted to come over and meet them. "

As he said that, He Yanmao turned his head again and said to everyone:

“This is the new deacon of our Alchemy Pavilion, Deacon Chu Ningchu.”

Although everyone in the Alchemy Pavilion was a little curious and surprised at Chu Ning's youth, they had heard some comments these days.

But after all, not everyone has Yuan Rongzhang's status and background, so most people are surprised.

There were some expressions on their faces, but they still held their hands and said:

“I’ve met Deacon Chu!”

Chun Ning cupped his hands in return, glanced at everyone, and then said:

“That’s right, isn’t this unfair to Senior Brother Geng and others?”

However, Chu Ning knew that this was only relative to him.

Ordinary alchemists, even intermediate-level alchemists, can generally only refine five or six familiar low-level and intermediate-level elixirs with a yield rate of over 80%.

Since Junior Brother Chu has been recognized by the elders of the sect as the deacon of the Alchemy Pavilion, he must have met this requirement. "

Some alchemists are even proficient in refining one or two types of elixirs.

The deacon of the Alchemy Pavilion is required to be able to refine five intermediate-grade elixirs with a yield rate of more than 60%. The requirements are indeed higher.

The sect has regulations on this, and the position of deacon requires not only an intermediate-level alchemist.

Elder Gong has indeed seen the elixirs I refined, but he seems to have never seen so many kinds. "

For a time, there was a lot of commotion in the alchemy pavilion.

Hearing Chu Ning admit the matter personally, the scene was immediately in an uproar.

It is true that he had never heard He Yanmao say such rules.

Seeing Chu Ning's expression, a strange color flashed in Geng Wansheng's eyes, and then he continued:

“However, Geng is not good at alchemy, so he still falls short of both requirements.

The Qi Refining disciples were fine, but some of the Foundation Establishment monks had already spoken.

“Chu doesn’t know this rule.

Hearing Geng Wansheng's words, Chu Ning was slightly stunned.

“Senior Brother Geng, please speak.”

The requirement to be certified as an intermediate-level alchemist is to be able to refine intermediate-level elixirs with a yield rate of more than 60%.

“Junior brother Chu, Geng Wansheng has something I would like to ask you for advice.”

Furthermore, it can refine five kinds of intermediate-grade elixirs in the sect with a yield rate of over 60%, and can refine ten kinds of intermediate-grade low-grade elixirs with a yield rate of over 80%. "

“Senior Brother Geng’s alchemy skills have been seen by all of us. If he can’t be a deacon, how can anyone else be a deacon?”

Although those Qi Refining disciples did not dare to show such eyes, they all had a hint of strangeness.

“Wow!”

Chuning spoke, Geng Wansheng's eyes immediately looked over.

More than a dozen Foundation Establishment monks looked at Chu Ning with unconvinced eyes.

At first glance, it seems easier to refine ten kinds of intermediate and low-grade elixirs with a yield rate of more than 80%.

…

However, he thought that "Master Xiao" had to completely change his identity, and coupled with the understanding of grievances, it seemed that his personality was no longer weird but normal.

Chu Ning said calmly at this moment:

Chun Ning’s eyes fell on Geng Wansheng who had opened his mouth, and he saw that he was also in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.

We are all not stupid, so how can we not understand that Geng Wansheng is a way to provoke a general.

“Why do our sect’s inner alchemists still have to abide by this rule, but others don’t?”

“To be honest with my junior brother, I had thought about applying to the sect for the position of deacon of the Alchemy Pavilion before this.

The deacons in front of Chu Ning also had different expressions on their faces.

This person looks thin, but the aura around his body is stronger than that of an ordinary monk in the middle stage of foundation building, and he is vaguely about to enter the level of the late stage of foundation building.

As soon as Geng Wansheng said these words, the expressions on the faces of everyone in the Alchemy Pavilion suddenly became rich.

The polite words made He Yanmao, who had some idea of ​​the temper of "Master Xiao" in the past, somewhat surprised.

At this time, Yuan Rongzhang winked inadvertently, and immediately an old man next to him who was about the same age as He Yanmao said:

“Chu is here for the first time, so please take good care of me in the future.”

It is difficult for alchemists to have a large amount of elixirs to practice with.

But as long as one can be refined, it will be fine.

After all, the medicinal materials required for elixirs of this level are not ordinary.

He Yanmao looked slightly embarrassed, obviously feeling a little distressed that the situation was out of control.

Su Yuqing's face was quite calm, and she looked at Chu Ning with curiosity, as if she wanted to see how Chu Ning would deal with this situation.

As for the older Xu Minghua, there was no expression on his face.

As for Yuan Rongzhang, he looked at Chu Ning with a bit of amusement.

Chun Ning's face was calm at the moment. His eyes glanced at everyone, and finally fell on He Yanmao.

“Senior Brother He, since all the senior brothers have doubts about my alchemy skills, I might as well arrange a test.”

He Yanmao was relieved when he heard that Chu Ning actually took the initiative to test.

He has seen Chu Ning’s elixir and knows that the quality of the elixir refined by Chu Ning is not low.

As for whether Chu Ning could master the method of refining so many kinds of intermediate elixirs, he didn't know.

When He Yanmao himself invited "Master Xiao" to join, he did not expect him to be a deacon.

This is because "Master Xiao" later refined the Foundation Establishment Pill, and Elder Gong made an exception.

The most important thing for Chu Ning to join the Alchemy Pavilion as a deacon is to solve the problem of the Foundation Establishment Pill.

After all, this elixir is still very important to the development of the sect.

Seeing Chu Ning take the initiative at this moment, He Yanmao knew that Chu Ning should be certain.

So, He Yanmao said directly:

“Okay, let’s ask Junior Brother Chu to refine some elixirs. It just so happens that we can also have an exchange on alchemy techniques.”

After finishing speaking, He Yanmao said again:

“There are two alchemy rooms in this pavilion, which can be used by others to observe alchemy. There are all kinds of alchemy equipment inside, and they are protected by prohibitions and will not be disturbed.

Junior Brother Chu can go there to make alchemy, and all of us can observe and learn.

I don’t know what kind of elixir Junior Brother Chu wants to refine, so I’ll ask someone to prepare some medicinal materials first. "

When Chu Ning and He Yanmao were talking, everyone in the Alchemy Pavilion was a little surprised.

Chuning actually offered to test it, which was obviously very confident.

Can't help but make everyone surprised.

For a time, many people were muttering to themselves.

“Could it be that Deacon Chu’s alchemy skills are so good that he can achieve such a high rate of alchemy?”

"If there is such an alchemy technique, our alchemy pavilion will indeed be greatly strengthened."

Of course, some people don’t think so.

Hence, He Yanmao had just finished speaking, and before Chu Ning had time to answer, Yuan Rongzhang had already spoken:

“Wait a minute!”

Facing everyone’s gaze, Yuan Rongzhang chuckled and said:

“Since Junior Brother Chu was brought in by Elder Gong, there must be no problem in refining intermediate-level elixirs or low-level elixirs.”

Hearing Yuan Rongzhang's words, everyone present was slightly startled.

I don’t know what Yuan Rongzhang meant by this.

You must know that Yuan Rongzhang is a descendant of Elder Jindan in the sect. He is quite conceited and does not easily praise others.

And everyone present knew that in the past half month, the person who asked Chu Ning the most diligent questions was Yuan Rongzhang.

Because this person has always been quite concerned about Geng Wansheng not getting the position of deacon.

Under such circumstances, Yuan Rongzhang's words seemed extremely strange.

Facing the puzzled looks of everyone, Yuan Rongzhang smiled and said:

“But I remember the request from the deacon of the Alchemy Pavilion, which is to refine the inherited elixirs in our Jiuhua Sect.

After all, he is the deacon of the Alchemy Pavilion of our Jiuhua Sect, and the elixirs he refines must be suitable for the monks in the sect. "

Hearing Yuan Rongzhang's words, the eyes of many people present became subtle.

What he said is correct. After all, before this, most of the deacons of Jiuhua Sect’s Alchemy Pavilion were monks of Jiuhua Sect.

The first thing they learned was the method of refining the Jiuhua Sect elixir.     So we will not encounter these problems.

Now that Yuan Rongzhang has proposed it, this purpose is naturally worthy of scrutiny.

He Yanmao frowned slightly at this time and said somewhat unhappily:

“Junior Brother Yuan, you are in a bit of a dilemma.

Junior Brother Chu has just come to the sect not long ago, and has not yet been exposed to the alchemy techniques in the sect.

How can he refine the inherited elixir of our sect? "

Yuan Rongzhang smiled after hearing this and said:

“Then Junior Brother Chu can talk to Elder Gong whether it would be more appropriate to become a deacon after he becomes familiar with the alchemy skills of our Jiuhua Sect.

Otherwise, if our alchemy pavilion is unable to supply elixirs, and other pavilions ask, "Don't you still have a deacon?", we will not be able to answer, right? "

He Yanmao frowned and waited to say something else.

Xu Minghua on the side suddenly interrupted:

“Senior Brother He, there is a compromise, and it doesn’t necessarily require refining five or ten types.

You can let Junior Brother Chu take a look at our alchemy skills first, and choose one or two of the intermediate-level and low-level ones.

If Junior Brother Chu himself is sure to learn it and successfully refine it in a short period of time, then I believe that if Junior Brother Chu is given time, he can naturally refine the rest. "

“Senior Brother Xu is right.” Yuan Rongzhang immediately agreed.

“Why don’t the four of us designate four kinds of elixirs? Junior Brother Chu will tell us a time, and we can wait any longer.”

He Yanmao was hesitating slightly, but Chu Ning had already answered:

“I don’t have any objections. I happen to be quite interested in the alchemy technique within the sect.”

Seeing Chu Ning say this, He Yanmao finally said after taking a look at Chu Ning:

“In that case, let the four of us choose four kinds of elixirs and give them to Junior Brother Chu first.

Junior sister Su, please choose an intermediate-level elixir. "

Su Yuqing, who had been silent until now, nodded slightly. After thinking about it, he reached out and took out a jade slip from his storage bag.

“Junior Brother Chu, this elixir is called Liushen Dan. It is an intermediate-grade elixir, mainly used to strengthen the spiritual consciousness.

It is one of the most popular elixirs among our Jiuhua Sect’s foundation-building monks. It contains the required medicinal materials and the method of refining it. "

After a slight pause, Su Yuqing said calmly:

“The refining of this elixir is moderately difficult for intermediate-level elixirs. Normally, seven pills can be refined in one furnace.

To achieve a 50% elixir formation rate, it still takes some effort. "

Chun Ning took it and scanned the jade slip with his consciousness.

Sure enough, I saw the prescription and refining method of the Six Divine Pills recorded in it.

The difficulty of this elixir lies in the fact that there is a herb called Ningshencao, which is extremely difficult to purify or dissolve.

In addition to certain requirements for fire control, there are also certain requirements for the use of spiritual consciousness.

Chun Ning just took a look and had a rough idea, so he nodded and said:

“Okay, thank you, Senior Sister Su.”

Su Yuqing had just finished speaking when Xu Minghua took out a jade slip and continued:

“I will choose an intermediate and low-grade elixir, Zijin Dan.

This elixir has the best healing effect among the intermediate and low-grade elixirs in our sect, and it happens to be in short supply in the pavilion. "

Chu Ning also took it over. As an intermediate and low-grade elixir, this pill is naturally easier to refine than the Liushen Pill.

I saw that the elixirs chosen by Su Yuqing and Xu Minghua were all of the same elixirs that were moderately difficult to refine.

He Yanmao breathed a sigh of relief, while Yuan Rongzhang's eyes flickered slightly.

Obviously both of them saw that the other two deacons had no intention of specifically targeting Chu Ning.

At this time, Yuan Rongzhang took out a jade slip and said:

“Junior Brother Chu, as the deacon of our Jiuhua Sect, it would be great if we could refine the Jiuhua Condensing Pill…”

Hearing the name of Jiuhua Ning Yuan Dan, everyone's expressions became a little strange.

He Yanzong's expression changed, and even Su Yuqing frowned slightly at this moment and said:

“Junior Brother Yuan, this Jiuhua Ningyuan Pill is the most difficult to refine among our sect’s mid-level pills.

The refining of this elixir requires special fire control techniques, which embodies the essence of our Jiuhua Sect's alchemy skills.

You actually asked Junior Brother Chu to learn the refining of this elixir in a short period of time, which is a bit difficult.

Among the few of us, except for Senior Brother He, no one can guarantee that the rate of forming a pill every time will exceed 50%. "

Yuan Rongzhang smiled when he heard this and said:

“Because of this, I specially chose the Jiuhua Condensation Pill. Junior Brother Chu didn’t mention it just now. I want to have more exposure to the alchemy skills of our Jiuhua Sect.

If Junior Brother Chu can learn the art of refining this elixir, he will naturally have a deeper understanding of the art of alchemy refining in our Jiuhua Sect. "

Speaking of this, Yuan Rongzhang looked at Su Yuqing and said with a slight arrogance in his tone:

“Junior brother is not talented. Recently, the success rate of this elixir has stabilized at more than 50%, and occasionally it can reach 60%.

Of course, Junior Brother Chu has just come into contact with me, so I don’t ask for the success rate.

As long as one can be refined in one furnace, I agree. "

Su Yuqing seemed a little surprised when he heard that Yuan Rongzhang had stabilized the success rate of this elixir at 50%, and did not answer the question for a while.

He Yanmao also shook his head and said: "Jiuhua Ning Yuan Dan is still too difficult. Junior Brother Yuan, please try another one."

Hearing this, Yuan Rongzhang smiled again and looked at Chu Ning.

“Junior Brother Chu, I wonder if you are interested in giving it a try?”

Chun Ning faced the other party's slightly irritating words with calm eyes, but he also sighed softly in his heart.

I am only the son of Gong Yuyuan's old friend on the surface. If I really want to gain a foothold in the Jiuhua Sect's Alchemy Pavilion, I have to rely on myself.

 Judging from the current situation, even if I am the deacon of the Alchemy Pavilion, I will not be stable if I do not get everyone's approval.

This is completely different from Chu Ning’s idea of ​​finding a large sect to obtain resources and practice stably at the same time.

In this case, I might as well use this to establish my authority.

Hit with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches!

After these thoughts passed by, Chu Ning reached out and took the jade slip from Yuan Rongzhang's hand.

“Then I’ll give it a try and learn the sect’s alchemy skills.”

As he spoke, Chu Ning also used his spiritual sense to investigate.

Just with a brief glance, Chu Ning knew that what they said was true.

It is not easy to refine this Jiuhua Ning Yuan Dan.

The biggest effect of this elixir is to strengthen the body and strengthen the body's magic power.

In terms of effect, it is indeed only an intermediate-grade elixir, but it requires a special fire control technique to refine it.

Chun Ning guessed that this fire control technique should be used to lay the foundation for the refining of more advanced elixirs in Jiuhua Sect.

Although this fire control technique seemed mysterious and unusual at first glance, Chu Ning felt relieved.

Although this technique is not exactly the same as some of the fire control techniques he learned from the Thunder Fire Sect's original spiritual elixir collection.

However, the principles have many similarities.

Moreover, in terms of complexity and mystery, it is simpler than some of the other techniques.

Chun Ning has Wuhuo Spirit Body and Yuandan Spirit Body in hand, so it is not difficult to learn them.

The consciousness quickly withdrew from the jade slips, and Chu Ning saw the completely different expressions of everyone present.

Yuan Rongzhang was a little sarcastic in his pride, He Yanmao was a little confused, and Su Yuqing showed a hint of curiosity again.

As for Xu Minghua, his face was still expressionless, showing no emotion or anger.

As for the rest of the people behind, they were obviously watching the fun.

Chun Ning didn't think too much about everyone's thoughts. At this moment, his eyes fell on He Yanmao.

The first deacon of the Alchemy Pavilion also took out a jade slip from the storage bag at this moment, and then said:

“It’s time for me to choose an intermediate or low-grade elixir, let’s choose the Foundation Establishment Pill. Everyone is familiar with this elixir, so I won’t introduce it in detail.”

As soon as He Yanmao said these words, everyone present was stunned.

Everyone thought that because of He Yanmao's character, he would definitely choose a relatively simple elixir to refine.

But unexpectedly, he chose the Foundation Establishment Pill directly.

To know that the difficulty of refining this elixir among low-level intermediate elixirs is equivalent to the difficulty of refining Jiuhua Yuan Yuan Dan among intermediate-level mid-level elixirs.

It is definitely extremely difficult to achieve an 80% rate of elixir formation.

Of course, Chu Ning also understood He Yanmao’s intention in making this choice.

Apparently he knew that he had been able to refine the foundation-building elixir before, so he found a somewhat basic elixir for himself.

“Haha, good! Senior Brother He is indeed confident in Junior Brother Chu’s alchemy skills.”

Yuan Rongzhang laughed after being stunned for a moment.

“Then these four elixirs are taken. I wonder how long it will take Junior Brother Chu to study the refining of these elixirs?”
