Chapter 232 Second-Rank Alchemist! Medicine Mountain!
Rumble!
Amidst thunder and lightning, a bolt of purplish-red lightning, as thick as a finger, descended from the sky!
The sudden scene left everyone dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief!
"This is... a tribulation of lightning? This is too childish!"
"The lightning tribulation... is it really that big? How come... it's different from the lightning tribulation I imagined!"
"This is hilarious... this lightning tribulation seems a bit weak!"
"Is this a tribulation of lightning?"
……
In front of the Hall of Nourishing Elixir.
Chen Fan was also somewhat surprised when he saw this scene.
However, this was his first time experiencing a tribulation of lightning.
I don't know what's going on, I can only unleash my full power!
hum!
As the sword was drawn, a sharp clang rang out!
A silver-white sword aura, ten feet wide, shot into the sky!
The moment the lightning tribulation and sword energy intertwined, an astonishing explosion was heard!
Visible to the naked eye!
The lightning tribulation shattered into dust, inch by inch, just like bamboo joints!
Then the dark clouds dispersed and disappeared!
The tribulation of lightning has ended!
The Second Elder, who was stunned in place, rubbed his eyes and said:
"This is... a tribulation of lightning?"
Gu Daozi, who was standing to the side, shook his head slightly.
It was the first time he had ever seen such a weak lightning tribulation, and he was slightly embarrassed!
"That's it...?" Chen Fan was also somewhat puzzled.
Without giving it much thought, he followed them to the alchemy furnace.
As soon as we got close.
A fragrant aroma of cinnamon wafted over.
That refreshing aroma caught Chen Fan's eye!
His intuition told him!
This elixir might be a great success!
Open the lid of the alchemy furnace to take a look.
At the bottom of the furnace, three top-grade Nourishing Essence Pills lay quietly, their color round and their appearance perfect.
The overflowing fragrance of the elixir made the Second Elder, who had moved closer, exclaim excitedly:
"This is...this is a top-grade Nourishing Essence Pill!"
What?
Top-grade Nourishing Essence Pill!
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed.
Guang Anzi, Chengfeng, Ruyi, and others were especially filled with jealousy!
"A top-grade Nourishing Essence Pill? He actually refined another top-grade pill..."
"One furnace explosion, one mid-grade, one top-grade... This alchemy talent is too strong!"
"This person... is arguably the strongest alchemy genius I've seen in decades!"
"This... is too strong! Invincible! The future of Kusaya is bright..."
……
In full view of everyone!
Tianxiangzi was also beaming with joy.
Holding Gu Daozi's hand, he said excitedly:
"Dad... is this guy alright?"
Gu Daozi nodded.
With admiration in his eyes, he chuckled softly:
"This young master is incredibly talented... his alchemy skills are so high... if you were to become his Daoist partner... it wouldn't be considered climbing the social ladder!"
To climb the social ladder?
Tianxiangzi was taken aback!
She looked herself up and down and frowned.
"Father, am I even worthy of him? What's wrong with your daughter?!"
Hearing his daughter's powerful, even more masculine voice than his own, Gu Daozi was speechless!
However, he did take a liking to Ji Daozi, a handsome young man with exceptional talent in alchemy!
If we could make him Caogu's son-in-law, that would indeed be a great thing!
Lost in thought, Gu Daozi said softly:
"Second Elder... Ji Daozi's ability to refine a top-grade Nourishing Essence Pill proves that he is qualified to become a second-grade alchemist!"
"The Valley Master is absolutely right," the Second Elder said, stroking his beard.
"Jidaozi, you've passed the alchemist assessment. I'll give you the Alchemist Jade Tablet afterward... Secondly, I still want to ask if you'd like to join Grass Valley!"
Upon hearing the inquiry.
Chen Fan's lips curled up in a smile!
He figured he came to Grass Valley for the medicinal herbs for Foundation Establishment Pills.
Now that he has become a second-grade alchemist, he is naturally willing to join!
"Ji Daozi is willing!" Chen Fan clasped his hands slightly in a fist salute.
Upon seeing this, Tianxiangzi smiled sweetly.
The way he looked at Jidaozi was as if he wanted to devour him!
This made Guang Anzi, who was standing nearby, grit his teeth in hatred!
A terrifying thought popped into his mind regarding Jidaozi!
Then.
Under the arrangement of the Second Elder.
Chen Fan finally obtained the jade disc representing a second-grade alchemist.
And having joined Grass Valley, he also has his own cave dwelling!
The cave is located on the back mountain of Caogu.
This place is rich in spiritual energy, and various herbs grow everywhere.
Among them were many rare medicinal herbs that Chen Fan had seen before.
What sells for hundreds of spirit stones outside is readily available here!
"Jidaozi, you can stay here for now!" The Second Elder, who was accompanying them, said with a smile.
"If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me."
"Thank you, Second Elder." Chen Fan nodded slightly.
"If there's anything I don't understand, I'll definitely ask you!"
The Second Elder, with his gray hair and wrinkled face, squinted and nodded.
He turned and left, looking old and frail.
Watching his departing figure.
Chen Fan's lips curled up in a smile.
He thought to himself that this second elder's surname was Long and given name was Wu, and he was one of the third-grade alchemists in Caogu.
Regardless of seniority or cultivation level, they are among the top-ranking experts in Grass Valley!
After Chen Fan discovered that he had displayed a powerful talent for alchemy, the old man seemed to be willing to pass on his alchemy experience to him.
Lost in thought, he couldn't help but take out the Grade 3 Alchemist's Manual from his pocket.
It is faintly visible that the above contains the alchemy experience of Old Man Long throughout his life.
If it were put up for auction, the starting price would probably be several hundred high-grade spirit stones!
Chen Fan shook his head slightly, not having had time to look at it yet.
Then they acquired it.
"Medicine Mountain..."
Chen Fan smiled as he muttered to himself.
He immediately turned around and walked towards the southeast corner of the back mountain.
That is the medicinal herb garden of Caogu.
According to Old Man Long, the mountains and fields there are covered with medicinal herbs.
There were dedicated disciples watching over and guarding it.
If alchemists need any medicinal herbs, they can come here to get them.
Chen Fan, who came to Caogu for this reason, naturally had to go to Yaoshan as soon as possible.
They hadn't walked far.
A mountain gate soon appeared ahead.
The words "Medicine Mountain" are written on the mountain gate.
There is a wooden house in front of the door.
A male disciple of Kusaya was sitting inside the room.
Upon seeing someone arrive, he immediately stood up and asked:
"The back mountain is a forbidden area...no unauthorized personnel are allowed to approach..."
"So you're a master alchemist... I am Qing Yuanzi... I pay my respects to you, senior..."
Chen Fan nodded slightly.
With a smile on his face, he then put away the jade disc that represented a second-grade alchemist.
"Qing Yuanzi, I need the ingredients for ten portions of Foundation Establishment Pills. Go and fetch them!"
What are the medicinal ingredients for the Foundation Building Pill?
"Yes... Senior... I'll go get it right away!" Qing Yuanzi nodded quickly and then walked into the mountain gate.
Chen Fan was not in a hurry when he saw this.
As he casually looked around, he became increasingly shocked.
Looking around, the mountain range behind the town stretches endlessly, with one peak after another.
Its interior is rich in spiritual energy, and it is clearly filled with rare and precious natural treasures.
"I wish I could get in..."
Chen Fan swallowed hard, feeling a mix of emotions.
He pondered that only third-grade alchemists could enter Medicine Mountain, and with his current rank, he was still far from qualified.
Otherwise, he would never have let this treasure mountain go.
However, as long as we don't give up, there are always more solutions than problems.
Thinking of this, Chen Fan's lips curled up in a smile!
After waiting for about half an hour.
Qing Yuanzi came out carrying a medicine basket.
Upon closer inspection, the basket was filled with purple monkey flowers, heavenly spirit fruit, and other medicinal materials needed for the Foundation Building Pill.
If Chen Fan hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes...
He found it hard to believe that these medicinal herbs were so rare to find outside the region.
Grass Valley was mentioned as casually as cabbage...
