After a few greetings, Shi Yu turned his head to look at Qingzhou, who nodded and walked forward to take out the gift she had prepared.

The person in charge of registering the gift list was an experienced elder of the Alchemy Association. At this moment, he had a smile on his face and took the gift with both hands, with a hint of respect in his eyes.

In the Yuan Realm, strength is respected, and seniority is not a thing. Although Shi Yu is young, her cultivation has entered the foundation-building stage, which is not much weaker than the elders of the association, not to mention her alchemy skills. No one in the association can match her except President Song. How can people not treat her with respect? If you use your status as a senior to make fun of Qiao, it will make people laugh.

The gift was placed in a wooden box made of yellow wood that could prevent the spiritual energy from escaping. Shi Yu had spent over a thousand low-grade spirit stones to buy this wooden box alone. She also carefully drew two restrictions on it, one to stabilize the spirit and one to contain the spirit, both with the aim of preserving the things inside for a long time.

The elder knew that the things inside were probably of great value, so he took a deep breath and slowly opened the wooden box.

"..."

After seeing what was inside, even though he had prepared himself mentally, he still couldn't help feeling dizzy and having a dry mouth.

Seeing the registration elder acting like this, the onlookers couldn't help but feel curious and stretched their necks to see what was inside. But before they could see it, they heard a "click" and the elder closed the wooden box and held it tightly in his hand, as if he was afraid that something might happen if he didn't keep it properly.

"Wow, what good stuff did Miss Shi come up with?"

"It must be something extraordinary if it is taken so seriously..."

All around, voices of curiosity or inquiry were heard one after another.

The elder blocked out these voices, looked at Shi Yu with an increasingly respectful gaze, and then whispered a few words to the disciple who was responsible for reciting the ritual list.

The disciple was even less able to concentrate. After listening to the whole story, his eyes were already somewhat confused. After a long pause, he swallowed his saliva and sang loudly in an unstable voice:

"To welcome Shi Yu from the Alchemy Association, I will present him with ten top-grade foundation-building pills and ten top-grade disease-removing pills as a token of respect!"

When the chanting ended, the surroundings instantly became lively.

"Foundation Building Pill... Top Grade Foundation Building Pill?! This, this..."

"Ten more! What a big deal! What a big deal!"

"And the Illness-Curing Pill. It was with this pill that Miss Shi won first place in the Alchemy Competition! I heard that after taking one pill, all the poison and illness will be cured!"

"hiss……"

Many people had burning eyes. If they were not concerned about President Song's status as a great Jindan master, they would have snatched it on the spot. Although they were still barely keeping their sanity, their eyes were glued to the Huang Jue Mu wooden box, unable to move away at all.

"With these ten foundation-building pills, the Alchemy Association will surely have ten more foundation-building masters in the future."

"I really envy you."

The Foundation Building Pill, when taken by a cultivator who has reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining during a breakthrough, can stabilize the yellow buds and provide a large amount of spiritual power to help the cultivator successfully build the foundation. It can be said that as long as one has a Foundation Building Pill in hand, even if it is only a low-grade pill of the lowest quality, it can increase the success rate of building the foundation by 20%.

And the ten pills that Shi Yu gave were all top-grade! In this way, taking one pill could at least increase the success rate of building the foundation by 40%!

As long as one is not that talented or has terrible luck, with this top-grade foundation-building pill in hand, success in foundation-building is a foregone conclusion. Once the foundation is built, it will far exceed the lifespan of mortals, which means that one has truly embarked on the path of cultivation. How can one not be excited?

As for the Healing Pill, there are rumors that the Healing Pill contributed to President Song's success in achieving the Golden Elixir. Among the cultivators present, which one does not have a serious illness caused by Dan poison in his body? It is just a matter of how much, which will more or less affect the state of mind, so those cultivators who have already established their foundation are even more envious of the Healing Pill.

The registrar elder was so nervous and guarded the box very closely because he knew too well how attractive the two elixirs inside were to cultivators.

Facing everyone's gaze, Shi Yu said to Qingzhou, Zhou Jia and others, "Go in and take a seat."

Several people from the Zhou family were also stunned. They tried to suppress their emotions, mumbled a few words in response, and followed Yu's steps to walk inside.

After Shi Yu entered, she randomly found an empty seat and sat down. The others sat around her in turn.

Picking up a piece of dessert from the table filled with delicacies, Shi Yu leisurely began to eat it.

She had basically eaten up all the top-grade foundation-building pills she had refined before. These ten high-grade foundation-building pills were newly refined by her. She had used up all the strongest medicinal plants of the three main medicinal plants planted in the medicine field in the Life-Knocking Bell to refine pills for herself. The remaining ones did not have enough nourishment and had weaker medicinal properties, so they were only high-grade pills.

However, for others, top-grade foundation-building pills are extremely rare, a good thing that only appears once or twice in hundreds of years.

As for the cure-all pill, she asked Mo Tong to collect the main ingredient, ice marrow. After Mo Tong went to the auction house and the trading company to entrust the matter, the managers heard that the things were what she wanted and they all took it very seriously and sent them over as soon as they became available.

Shi Yu had refined all of the disease-curing pills. In addition to these ten, there were still a dozen or so. The other three associations each received a few, but this was a private transaction and ordinary people did not know about it.

The donation of a total of twenty pills was intended to calm the Alchemy Association, but more importantly, it was out of consideration for the association's future development.

Now that she has established her foundation, she will leave Lingtai Prefecture soon. She naturally hopes that the association will get better and better.

This place is like her hometown. She has gained a lot here, so she has to give back. This is not only true for the Alchemy Association, but also for the other three associations. She has prepared some parting gifts.

"Several guild leaders have allowed me to visit their respective associations to see their wonderful relics, but I can't accept all these benefits for nothing..."

Shi Yu shook his head slightly and talked with Qingzhou and the Zhou family. If anyone came up to talk to him, he would not put on airs and would always say a few words.

As everyone was seated at the banquet, she no longer showed any intention of chatting with anyone. Those who wanted to approach her and get close to her knew better and didn't go over to avoid being annoying.

Without saying anything more, Shi Yu looked up and waited quietly for the ceremony to officially begin.

Finally, the auspicious moment arrived and the extremely melodious sound of bells rang out.

Along with this mysterious and beautiful music, a mist suddenly appeared behind the peak, and several extremely strong pressures escaped from it. Although it was only for a moment, all the cultivators present understood that it was probably the old ancestors of Lingtai Mansion who had entered the Golden Elixir stage for hundreds of years and had been in seclusion for many years who came to watch the ceremony, but they did not show up in front of people.

Under the gaze of everyone, President Song floated down from mid-air, flicked his sleeves and ignited the altar on the top of the mountain. Suddenly, flames on the altar blazed and turned into a fire dragon, hovering in the air.

President Song took out a jade pot from his arms, poured out a cup of nectar, held it high above his head, and then threw the cup. The fire dragon opened its mouth and swallowed the cup into its stomach, then let out a deafening roar, and sprayed countless sparks in all directions, illuminating the entire sky.

After the sparks faded, President Song began to read out his greetings to heaven and earth.

"…Everything in the world has spiritual energy. Cultivators take spiritual energy as their foundation, the law as their way, the elixir as their supplement, the tools as their aid, the formation as their power, and the talisman as their use. Today, I will hold the Golden Elixir Ceremony. I respectfully invite heaven and earth to witness it, gods and ghosts to watch it, and all living beings to celebrate it…"

Shi Yu saw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathering in this direction, forming a mysterious rune pattern on the altar. As President Song's words came out, a dazzling golden light suddenly burst out from the top of the mountain, illuminating the entire mountaintop. It was the resonance of the way of heaven.

Everyone held their breath, all of them were shocked.

Finally, President Song knelt on the altar and said in a serious and loud voice:

"Ancestor, I pay my respects to you!"

"Heaven and earth are above, worship!"

……

Every shout of worship was accompanied by a roar of mana waves that shook the four directions. All the cultivators present knelt down with President Song, and the momentum was huge.

After he finished speaking, the sound of bells and chimes gradually faded away, and a solemn atmosphere enveloped the entire mountain.

President Song stood up, turned around, looked at the thousands of guests, and said with a smile: "I have achieved the Golden Elixir, and I would like to share this joy with you and advance the Tao together!"

This is a tradition of the ceremony. After a breakthrough, the monks will hold a Dharma assembly to preach and share their experiences, which can also be regarded as a way to make good connections.

In this way, the Golden Elixir Ceremony was concluded, and all that remained was for the guests to toast and laugh.
