I was forced to leave the world of immortal cultivation after being transformed into a loser.

Gu Liyue looked at the alchemy furnace and a jade box on the table, and knew that there was earth fire in the jade box. She was going to use the alchemy furnace and earth fire from Tongming Peak to refine the elixir.

As expected, the assessments all include materials! I just don't know if you can take away the extra pills.

She placed the bamboo basket on the table, opened the jade box, used her spiritual power to take out the earth fire and placed it under the alchemy furnace.

When the students who had just finished the exam saw Gu Liyue coming out, they all stayed there. They wanted to watch Gu Liyue making the elixir on the spot. After all, such opportunities were rare.

Alchemists do not want to be disturbed when they are refining elixirs, nor do they like others to steal their skills. Generally speaking, they do not accept others watching them.

"Look, Gu Liyue is coming out."

"Look at the bamboo basket she used to store the spiritual herbs. There are at least twenty of them in it. It seems the elixir she refined must be of a high quality!"

"I heard that several people taking the test today have refined third-level pills, but no one has yet refined a fourth-level pill. Do you think Gu Liyue can refine a fourth-level pill?"

"I think it's very possible. After all, more than twenty spiritual herbs can be used to refine fourth or fifth level pills."

"Yeah, she can't possibly make a fifth-level pill, right?"

Lin Cang was also standing in the crowd. He knew that Gu Liyue had reported for alchemy. He had completed the assessment in the morning. He had refined a third-level rejuvenation pill. He had practiced continuously last night and after ensuring success, he decided to use refining the rejuvenation pill as a test.

He knew that it was rare to find an alchemist who could refine a third-grade pill during the Foundation Establishment Stage. He felt that he could become the Second Elder's personal disciple by doing so, and this idea made him complacent.

When he heard everyone's discussion, he was struck by lightning. Could Gu Liyue actually refine a fourth-tier elixir? This was impossible, absolutely impossible!

I remember that the Second Elder could only refine fourth-grade pills when he was in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and he could only refine them after he reached the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment Stage!

How could Gu Liyue refine a fourth-grade elixir at the seventh level of foundation building?

Perhaps she took too many spiritual herbs, or perhaps the person who spoke just now was mistaken. There should not be more than twenty spiritual herbs in the bamboo basket.

Gu Liyue must be able to refine only third-level pills! He told himself this in his heart.

Lin Cang was in a state of confusion among the crowd, while Gu Liyue started to refine the elixir. She had refined a batch of soul-nourishing elixirs before, and just recalled the recipe and practiced it in her mind.

She felt the temperature of the alchemy furnace and began to throw spiritual herbs into it. She threw the spiritual herbs with her left hand and controlled the earth fire with her right hand. Her movements were skillful and smooth. She felt the temperature of the earth fire stabilized. She formed seals with both hands and hit the alchemy furnace, changing the hand gestures from time to time.

The onlookers watched her gestures so quickly that only afterimages could be seen.

"Gu Liyue's alchemy posture is really beautiful, calm and smooth."

"Yeah, I can't see her hand gestures clearly. It must be because I haven't learned them."

"This is the gap, the gap between people."

Lin Cang also felt unfamiliar when looking at her hand gestures. When he realized this, his face turned pale.

In the main hall of Tongtian Peak, Chi Yonghao looked at Gu Liyue's hand gestures in the water mirror. He was shocked. This is... a fifth-level soul-nourishing pill.

This Gu Liyue is truly a genius in alchemy, I must accept her as my personal disciple.

He had some guesses in his mind ever since he saw Gu Liyue pick up the Nether Grass and Moon Shadow Grass. It was not until now, when he saw Gu Liyue's hand gestures, that he was sure that she was indeed refining a fifth-grade elixir, the Soul-Nourishing Pill.

He carefully watched Gu Liyue's movements in the water mirror. From her proficiency, it was clear that this was not her first time refining the Soul Nourishing Pill.

Zhou Ruomu was also shocked. At this moment, Zhou Ruomu stood next to Gu Liyue and watched her refine the pill with his own eyes.

This Soul Nourishing Pill is a pill that he can refine only when he is in the middle stage of the Golden Core! He looked at Gu Liyue, who was only at the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment.

He took a closer look and realized that Gu Liyue's cultivation level should be about to advance to the eighth level! It seemed like only half a month had passed since she advanced to the seventh level! This cultivation speed was incredibly fast.

Just as he was surprised, he heard the buzzing sound of an alchemy furnace in his ears, which meant the furnace was about to be opened.

Yin Rutang, standing on the periphery, had a ferocious expression on her once sweet face. Senior Brother had always been by Gu Liyue's side, and she didn't even dare approach her, watching her steal the show. Gu Liyue would definitely be noticed by Master, she thought desperately.

Zhou Ruomu suppressed the surprise in his heart and watched Gu Liyue use spiritual power in his right hand to open the alchemy furnace. A burst of elixir fragrance wafted out, which was very strong.

Gu Liyue was seen holding the porcelain bottle in her left hand, and using her spiritual power in her right hand to hold the pill and put it into the porcelain bottle.

"Five. She refined five pills in this furnace."

"This medicinal fragrance is so strong! It seems that this medicine is of very high quality!"

"I don't know what level this pill is. Level three or level four."

"Look! Uncle Zhou is checking the pills."

Zhou Ruomu took the porcelain bottle from Gu Liyue's hand, brought it directly to his nose and sniffed it gently, then poured one into his hand and observed its appearance. It was round, plump and slightly translucent.

He opened his lips slightly and slowly uttered two words: "Top grade."

There was an uproar.

"It's actually top-grade. Gu Liyue is so amazing."

"I told you, the fragrance of this pill means it's top grade."

Lin Cang thought of the batch of rejuvenation pills he had refined: medium-grade, four pills.

He was devastated. He was one of the best alchemists in his own country, Xilu. In his country, he was a sought-after prodigy, as if he was standing in the clouds.

When he arrived at Qingxuan Academy, he saw himself lost among the crowd and felt indignant. He thought that he would be able to stand at the top through hard work. However, he did not expect that the gap between him and Gu Liyue was so huge. How could he catch up?

Although he was certain in his heart that Gu Liyue's furnace must contain more than just third-level pills.

But he still convinced himself that maybe this furnace could be of the third level, and then the gap between him and Gu Liyue would not be too big.

Just as he calmed himself down, he heard Zhou Ruomu's voice: "Soul Nourishing Pill, fifth-grade top grade, five pills."

The square seemed to be boiling.

Uncle Zhou's calm words once again struck Lin Cangze like he was struck by lightning. This time, there was a heavier sense of finality than the last time, which completely broke him down.

Yin Rutang's face was also pale. She had thought that she could always defeat Gu Liyue at Tongming Peak. She had never expected Gu Liyue's alchemy talent to be so high. She would not be able to attack her easily in the future.

At this time, Gu Liyue asked weakly, "Uncle Zhou, can I ask you a question?"

Zhou Ruomu replied calmly with a straight face, "Okay, go ahead."

"I want to say: the quality of the pills produced from the same furnace is the same. Can you keep only one as an assessment sample and let me take the others back?" Gu Liyue said in a reasonable manner.

Zhou Ruomu was speechless and couldn't help but say, "But leaving only one doesn't mean you refined five in one furnace!"

Gu Liyue said: "You can register it, or make a mark on the porcelain bottle!"

Zhou Ruomu smiled secretly in his heart. This Gu Liyue really loves elixirs, or rather, spirit stones!

"Since you say so, I would like to ask my master for advice, as there is no precedent for this."

"it is good."

Zhou Ruomu used his spiritual sense to transmit a message to his master. He was now in the Nascent Soul stage, so he could just transmit a message within Qingxuan Academy.
