Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 26 Alchemy Conference
Looking at the two decadent figures walking away, the smile on the face of the servant at the rental office became even happier.

Until he saw an old figure approaching, the smile on his face instantly disappeared, "Master."

The old man nodded and walked forward with a serious face. "I've found out everything. They're going to hold an alchemy conference soon. We'll be looking for someone who can make elixirs for the princess. This is a matter of great importance. You must not be naughty again."

"No, no!" The servant kicked his feet and hid the unconscious body deeper.

The old man walked forward obliviously, but he was a little curious. "Oh right! Is there no one here to watch? What if someone comes to rent the furnace?"

"Everyone has three urgent needs. Maybe he needs to pee." The young man caught up with the old man with a smile, "It's none of our business anyway. Let's go watch the alchemy conference!"

……

Among the rows of neatly built stone houses are alchemy rooms of different sizes.

Led by the guide at the rental site, Lin Jian and Chun Xue were brought to a medium-sized alchemy room that had not yet been rented out.

Along the way, Lin Jian saw that most of the alchemy rooms had been rented out.

This is a bit strange.

"Why are there so many people today?"

Alchemists are not uncommon, and the rental price here is reasonable, but it is strange that so many alchemy rooms have gathered here in such a short period of time.

The guide glanced at the young face in the forest. The age of a cultivator cannot be taken seriously, but his posture and expression usually cannot be misleading.

This clear look in his eyes was not the result of those old monsters who had achieved success in cultivation pretending to be young, so he smiled and explained, "Master, you don't come to our Tianhuo Danfang often, right?"

Because they have the ability to control heavenly fire and provide alchemists with the best quality furnaces, this is the signature of the alchemy workshop and their greatest confidence.

Therefore, it was named "Tianhuo Danfang".

There was no point in hiding it, so Lin Jian admitted generously, "Indeed."

"My Tianhuo Danfang regularly holds alchemy conferences. Firstly, this is to prevent those truly capable alchemists from being buried, and secondly, it is to maintain our Tianhuo Danfang's reputation. These two days happen to be the time when we hold the alchemy conference, so it's naturally lively here."

At this point, the guide smiled and looked at the forest. "What do you think? Master? Do you want to join our alchemy conference and join in the fun? If you can win the final victory, you will not only receive a large winning bonus, but also have the opportunity to become famous in front of many cultivators. Who knows, there will be a great opportunity waiting for you!"

He didn't know how many times he had said similar things over the years. After all, there were at least two alchemy conferences held every year.

However, there were not many alchemists who encountered great opportunities, but their Tianhuo Danfang made a lot of money.

Just like today, if you want to participate in the alchemy conference, you must first rent an alchemy room from them. Doesn’t this all cost spirit stones?

Hearing about the bonus, the two young men's eyes sparkled and they asked in unison, "How much is it?"

"One hundred thousand, top-grade spirit stones!"

"call!"

Both of their eyes turned red.

"Seize the young master?"

"One hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones." The guide said the number again with a smile.

The wool comes from the sheep, and even the prize money of this conference is actually paid by these alchemists themselves.

They simply provided a venue, made a few calls, and not only did they get the job done, they also made money. Even the wool might not have been returned to the sheep!
Oh, our abbot is such a genius!
The guide always has a smile on his face.

Lin Jian and Haruyuki exchanged glances, each seeing desire in the other's eyes.

Lin Jian was greatly encouraged and turned to look at the guide. "How do I join?"

"It's very simple." The guide smiled more sincerely. "I have the elixir recipe for this conference. It's definitely not any ordinary elixir formula circulating on the market. If the immortal master wants to participate, just register your information with me and I will provide the elixir recipe. Of course, because the elixir recipe is not common, the immortal master may not have the ingredients prepared, so our alchemy workshop has specially prepared enough elixir ingredients for your use."

But the ingredients for this elixir... cost money.

Precisely because the elixir formula is not common, the elixir ingredients are also not common.

As long as you want to participate in the competition, you have to pay for the ingredients.

If you are not satisfied with your refining results, you may need more pill materials to gradually improve the quality.

If you want to improve the quality, you naturally need to spend time researching, and the rental time will increase accordingly.

Isn't it all about money?

The guide's eyes were full of business, while Lin Jian and Haruyuki were much calmer.

You need to register your information and purchase elixir materials... The most important thing is to purchase elixir materials!

What if I don’t win in the end, won’t I lose everything?
The guide was also a very perceptive person. Seeing the hesitation on the two people's faces, he did not try to persuade them. Instead, he took them into the alchemy room, gave them a basic introduction on how to use the alchemy room, and left them a recipe for the alchemy competition.

"Don't worry, Master Immortal. The registration information doesn't need to be completely accurate. It just needs to allow us to contact the Master. After all, the results of the conference can't be determined on the spot. If the results are out and we can't contact the Master Immortal, we won't be able to send the prize money, right? Besides, this pill formula isn't a valuable item. Whether Master Immortal decides to participate in the conference or not, you can take a look at the pill formula before making a decision."

After saying this, he left without any hesitation.

As the door closed, the alchemy room became quiet. A soft light shone down from the top, and the artificial light sources inside also emitted a constant and gentle light.

The alchemy room is activated by spirit stones. The alchemy furnace can only be started after enough spirit stones are smashed into specific positions.

When the pre-deposited spirit stones fall below a certain limit, an early warning will be issued. When the pre-deposited spirit stones are completely used up, the furnace fire supply will be directly cut off. The prices are also clearly marked, so it is fair to everyone.

But right now, the two of them were more concerned about the 100,000 yuan bonus, so they read the recipe carefully first.

"Spiritual Enlightenment Pill?"

The name looks intimidating, but it is actually just a kind of medicine that slightly increases the speed of the user's spiritual thoughts.

It may be possible to increase the number of thoughts in one breath from ten to eleven, so that you will have more ideas and higher efficiency when thinking about things.

It is said to be useful, but it is actually not very useful.

The efficacy is not obvious, the ingredients are rare, and it is quite difficult to refine the elixir because it involves divine consciousness.

At the same time, no one focuses on this kind of unconventional and useless elixir, and there is no such thing as specialization. Everyone starts from the same starting line, and the final result is more convincing.

It is for this reason that the Danfang is provided free of charge as an assessment item for the Alchemy Conference.

"Are you confident?" Lin Jian asked Chunxue after reading the recipe.

Chunxue only saw the cost of the ingredients at the end of the recipe and cautiously suggested, "It's only 600 low-grade spirit stones anyway, why not give it a try?"
