Chapter 107: Don’t miss your meal, quick hands, nine furnaces refine together and shake hundreds of flowers [Please read]

Lucius suddenly remembered that this was the case.

Early this morning, news came from De Hufeng, and he went out immediately. As a result, he received a message from Mei Zhen just after leaving the city.

The certification of alchemists usually takes place on fixed dates, the first and fifteenth day of every month.

Those who have connections will naturally receive special treatment, but they must also arrive early.

After all, it takes almost a whole day to refine nine furnaces of pills, including the rest in between.

At that time, he naturally thought that the other party would come the next day or the day after tomorrow: "I'm afraid I have to inform Elder Mei Zhen."

He was cultivating elixirs for the devil, and now his secret has been exposed. He will probably be escorted back to the sect tomorrow.

"Well, it's hard to say. All our belongings were plundered by Yan Ming. We might have to borrow money from the pavilion for travel expenses, and to replenish some common treasures. The amount required is huge, and we need to apply to the sect for it."

Lucius shook his head secretly, what was going on?

He changed his mind and was about to speak.

Nan Lianzhu exchanged a look of surprise with his brother and spoke first, "Elder? Mei Zhen has achieved elixir formation? Is her illness cured?"

The others might not know who Mei Zhen is, but she and her brother knew her.

Yes, it’s recognition, not acquaintance.

More than ten years ago, Mei Yunqing took Mei Zhen to [Baihua Valley] and discussed with several elders how to remove the [Blood Puppet Secret Technique] from her.

Both the brother and sister were present, including when they later diagnosed and treated his hemophilia.

At that time, they were all still Qi-refining cultivators. They were just brought there by their master to gain some experience and serve him. They never spoke a word.

However, Mei Zhen's appearance as a blood puppet, and her image when she went crazy later, both brought a deep shock to the hearts of the two, so they were deeply impressed by her.

"A few months, I think," Lucius replied, then asked the disciple, "Did they wait a day? That's quite rude."

The disciple curled his lips and said, "No, he arrived a little earlier than the Pavilion Master. Um, they came in almost at the same time."

Seeing the Pavilion Master frown, he quickly added:
"I have already told him to come in early tomorrow, but he insisted on waiting for you to come back."

I looked at the time and it was already around 5 p.m.

[Foundation Building Pill] is infinitely close to the second level, and it takes about an hour to refine one furnace.

The refining time of ordinary first-level pills is shorter, but including the preparation time and the time for processing medicinal materials, it still takes half an hour.

Lu Xiu couldn't help but complain in his heart: "I'm afraid this is my last day as the Pavilion Master. Does he want me to take the night shift and accompany him to refine the elixir all night long?"

Nan Lianzhu's curiosity about Mei Zhen outweighed his dislike for Lu Xiu.

She repeatedly asked, "What's the relationship between this person and Mei Zhen? He's a certified first-level alchemist, so he must be a Qi-refining cultivator, right? Is he her disciple?"

"No, the message said it was her junior brother, but didn't go into details about the specific situation." Seeing that his senior sister was talking to him, Lu Xiu's tone became much lighter.

Could it be Mei Yunqing's apprentice? Nan Lianzhu urged, "Come on, take us to see it."

When the disciple saw the Pavilion Master nod, he immediately responded and led everyone to the inner guest hall.

As soon as I entered, I saw a young man wearing the green robe of the outer sect of the Qinghua Sect, facing this side and fiddling with medicinal herbs.

The young man classified the various spiritual medicines into nine categories. Obviously, these were the materials he intended to use for certification.

They were all experts in alchemy and knew at a glance that the other party was preparing to refine a set of pills to increase his cultivation level during the Qi Refining Stage.

This increases the difficulty a lot. Usually, those who come to certify as first-level alchemists go through a series of combinations, from easy to difficult, trying to get the certification with the least effort.

For this purpose, there are booklets like "Standard Combinations for First-Level Certification" circulating among alchemists. "Are you Tang Hao? It's getting late today, fellow Daoist. Why don't you come back tomorrow? I can greet the disciples below." Lu Xiu looked at the nine small piles of spiritual medicine and felt a headache coming on.

Refining this set of pills might take longer than he expected. His mood had been up and down all day, and he was already exhausted both physically and mentally. Now he just wanted to lie down and do nothing.

Upon hearing this, the young man turned around and bowed respectfully to the group, saying, "I am Tang Hao, an outer disciple of the Qinghua Sect, Yaofeng. Nice to meet you seniors."

After a few people responded, he stood up straight and said, "I didn't want to come so late, but I have a lot of things planned for the future."

Lucius frowned and was about to persuade him that there was no rush for certification and he could come back when he had time, but then he heard what the other party continued to say.

"I came this morning at a bad time. I happened to see Pavilion Master Lu going out, so I had to wait nearby. I just saw you coming back from afar, so I came in early to wait."

It’s just a day’s wait, Lucius’ mouth twitched, and he couldn’t say what he was about to say.

Everyone in the room knew what they were doing. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were putting personal interests above public ones. Even if they were using connections to get the certification, it was still official business, wasn't it? For a moment, they looked a little embarrassed.

As if understanding his difficulty, the young man continued, "Don't worry, Pavilion Master. I can make pills very quickly and I guarantee I won't delay your meal."

Lu Xiu was almost pissed off and laughed: "It's just that it won't delay my shift. Two hours, I would just say you're exaggerating, but dining in less than an hour is simply ridiculous."

"After all, he is Mei Zhen's junior fellow apprentice. Since he is so anxious, let's start early. I can take care of him at night." After observing for a long time, Nan Lianzhu finally spoke.

As soon as she spoke, Lucius naturally shut his mouth tightly.

"An outer sect disciple, at the sixth level of Qi Refining. With this level of cultivation, he shouldn't be close to Mei Zhen. He's probably Mei Yunqing's designated disciple." Nan Lianzhu whispered to his brother, feeling that he was almost right.

"My master has a good relationship with Elder Mei Yunqing, so I have to give him some respect. But why does this young man look so familiar?"

The image of Master Yan Ming appeared involuntarily in her mind. She quickly shook her head and cursed herself for being crazy.

One is the master of the [Hehuan Sect], who has nine jade-faced monks in the foundation-building stage under his command, and is rich with spiritual stones. He beat the foundation-building monks to a pulp.

One of them is an outer disciple of Qinghua Sect, who, apart from being young and handsome, has mediocre cultivation and is unremarkable. He used his connections to be certified as a first-class alchemist.

Aside from their somewhat similar figures, the two of them had nothing in common: "I just wonder if Yan Ming is as good-looking as this little brother."

There was a faint warm feeling in the lower abdomen, as if that big hand was brushing over again.

"Nan Lianzhu, what's wrong with you? Are you thinking about a man? And a wild man from the Demon Sect whose true identity is unknown, you are so shameless!" Nan Lianzhu became angry and even scolded himself.

Tang Hao followed a few people and walked towards the alchemy room where the certification examination was held.

On the way, I sent Lao Luo a message: "It will be over soon. Prepare the dishes first and wait for me to come back and cook them."

"This Lu Xiu is about to resign and leave. If someone else comes, it will be too late to jump the queue. I have to make pills next, so I may not have time on the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month. Fortunately, this girl made the decision and agreed."

Originally, he looked down upon Nan Lianzhu, thinking that she was outspoken and reckless. But now, he felt that she still had some merits, at least she was somewhat capable.

Tang Hao didn't really need this certification, but Lao Luo and Lao Jiang were greedy and wanted to have a drink with him.

He dealt with it casually and said it out loud to verify it.

If I can't get it back, I'll definitely be laughed at by these two guys. Well, I'm definitely not trying to show off.

Arriving at the alchemy room, Nan Lianzhu raised his hand and said, "You can begin now."

"Ok."

Tang Hao responded and waved his hand.

The nine alchemy furnaces that suddenly appeared in the alchemy room left the Baihua cultivators stunned.
