Quick Wear: After Saving the Cannon Fodder, I Became a God

Chapter 121 The poor little talent who fell in the world of cultivation 15

Gu Qian held his breath and concentrated, controlling the temperature of the flame, carefully observing the changes inside the cauldron.

As time passed, a strong medicinal aroma gradually emanated from the cauldron.

After a while, Gu Qian turned off the fire, opened the lid of the cauldron, and three round and smooth Nascent Soul Pills appeared before her.

"It worked!" Gu Qian's eyes flashed with joy. The color of this pill was crystal clear, without any impurities, and it was obviously of top quality.

She carefully placed the Nascent Soul Pill into the jade bottle, intending to use it to exchange for the qualification to participate in the Haoling Trading Company auction.

Afterwards, she walked out of the restaurant and headed straight towards Haoling Commercial Bank according to the directions given by the waiter.

Gu Qian arrived at the door of Haoling Trading Company and was stopped by the guards.

"Excuse me, young lady?" the guard asked.

"I have a precious elixir and would like to discuss with your bank about participating in the auction."

The guard looked surprised, then made way for him. "Please wait a moment, young lady. I will go and inform them."

After a while, a middle-aged man came over and said, "Miss, please follow me."

Gu Qian followed the middle-aged man into the store and came to a spacious room.

"Girl, this is where we are responsible for identifying the items for auction." The middle-aged man said, pointing to several old men in the room.

Gu Qian handed the Nascent Soul Pill to one of the old men. After the old man carefully examined it, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Top-grade Nascent Soul Pill! Girl, your pill is good enough to be included in our auction. May I ask who made this pill?" said the old man.

Gu Qian was a little hesitant. If she said that this was made by herself, it would be too surprising. After all, she was only 18 years old.

She wanted to take it step by step and not draw too much attention.

But if I say that this was made by someone else, regardless of whether others believe it or not, what if they doubt the source of the elixir and refuse to accept it?

The old man saw Gu Qian's expression and said, "Oh, don't worry, young lady. I am just very curious about this alchemist and have no other intentions."

Gu Qian hesitated for a while, then made up her mind. Her age and cultivation level were not compatible, so her advancement speed would be much faster than that of ordinary people.

In addition, with the cheat of space, whether it is cultivation or alchemy, it takes much longer.

Instead of hiding it like this, it would be better to reveal it slowly and let everyone get used to it.

"I made it myself, but I haven't gotten certification from the Medicine Association yet. I'm about to go to the Medicine Association for an assessment. If you're worried about this pill, I'll go now."

"That's not the case. You misunderstood. However, the company does need to confirm the source of the elixir. May I ask your name and who is your master?"

"My name is Gu Qian, and I'm a disciple of Qingyun Sect's Xuanxu Zhenren. This is my identity proof." Gu Qian said as he took out the Qingyun Sect's disciple token and handed it to the old man.

"It is indeed Qingyun Sect. I am sorry for the disrespect. If that is the case, then there must be no problem. One more thing, Haoling Trading Company will charge a 20% service fee for the auction items. Can you accept that, fellow Daoist?"

"Naturally."

Upon hearing this, the old man picked up a pen and wrote a few words, then said: "This is an invitation. Fellow Daoist Gu Qian can enter with the invitation in three days. At that time, the company will arrange a single room and special service for you."

Gu Qian took the token and invitation and put them into the space, then said, "Okay, thank you."

After Gu Qian left Haoling Trading Company, he walked straight to the Pharmaceutical Association across the street.

As soon as Gu Qian walked in, an old man who looked like an immortal asked, "Daoyou, do you want to take the test for the level of an alchemist?"

"Yes." Gu Qian nodded and replied.

"Have you ever taken the test before? What level do you want to take?"

"I have never taken the exam before. I want to directly take the exam for a senior alchemist."

The old man looked at Gu Qian in surprise, then frowned and said unhappily, "You seem to be less than 20 years old, so don't tease me for no reason."

Gu Qian quickly waved her hand and said, "I definitely don't mean that. If you don't believe me, I can start from the beginner level."

The old man did not respond to Gu Qian's words, but lowered his head to write something on the paper, and then asked: "Name, where did you learn from?"

"Gu Qian, my disciple is Master Xuanxu from Qingyun Sect." Then he took out the token of Qingyun Sect and handed it over.

"Hmm? When did old man Xuanxu accept a young disciple like you?" The old man seemed to suddenly become interested and took Gu Qian's token and said with interest.

"Senior, do you know my master? I became his disciple five years ago."

"I think everyone knows your master, a master-level alchemist." He sneered and said, "We are just a little acquaintance. Did your master let you take the advanced exam?"

"No, Master asked me to take the intermediate exam, but I have successfully refined high-level elixirs myself, and the quality is top-grade. So..."

The old man seemed to believe Gu Qian a little at this time. He said, "Since you are the disciple of old man Xuanxu, and you said he asked you to take the intermediate level exam, then start from the intermediate level."

"The Medicine Association's rule is that no matter whether you pass the level test or not, you are not allowed to take it again within three days. But if you pass the intermediate level, I will make an exception for you and let you try the advanced level."

"Okay, thank you senior." Gu Qian said with a sigh of relief.

Afterwards, she followed the examiners to another room and began the first two rounds of assessment on identifying medicinal herbs and their properties.

After passing the test successfully, Gu Qian came to the last round. When she was brought into the alchemy room, the old man was already sitting inside.

He watched Gu Qian come in, nodded, and said, "For the intermediate level assessment, the Medicine Association will provide the herbs, but for the advanced level and above, you will need to prepare them yourself.

"The pills you will be testing today are the Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Barrier Breaking Pill. The herbs are right next to you. As for the pill furnace, you can use your own or the one here. Okay, let's get started."

Gu Qian walked to the testing table, took out his own Jintong Ding, took a deep breath, and began to refine the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

Gu Qian did not use purple flames, but ordinary flames. Although the temperature of ordinary flames was not as high as that of purple flames, with her experience and skills, she could still control the temperature.

She skillfully blended the various medicinal ingredients together, and the whole process went smoothly.

As time passed, the medicinal liquid in the cauldron gradually became thicker and exuded an enticing aroma.

The fragrance permeates the air, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Finally, Gu Qian shouted softly, turned off the fire and opened the lid. Five round barrier-breaking pills lay quietly in the cauldron, and the surface of the pills flashed with strange light.

The old man's eyes flashed with amazement, and he praised: "It is rare for someone so young to be able to refine a top-grade marrow cleansing pill!"

"Thank you for the compliment, senior."

"Good, go on." The old man nodded, signaling her to continue the test.

Gu Qian used the cleaning technique to clean the golden cauldron, and then began to refine the barrier-breaking pill.

Gu Qian carefully controlled the flame and put precious herbs into the cauldron one by one.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Gu Qian was concentrating on refining the pills. Finally, she turned off the fire and opened the cauldron again, only to see five top-grade barrier-breaking pills come out of the cauldron.
