Chapter Eighty-Three: A Sudden Quiz
By the time the retreat was finished again, it was already two days later. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Now she can master the first layer of alchemy, and even faintly touch the door of the second layer.
But according to Ye Du, alchemy is not a technique to be rushed, and only by working steadily can she go further, so she usually tends to practice the basics.
The architectural style of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is majestic and magnificent, and the degree of richness is no less than the royal palaces she has seen in the palace, but the living room arranged by Ye Du for her, in the most secluded corner of the eleventh floor of the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, compared with the design outside, it looks quite simple, and it is even more simple than her dormitory in the Douling Branch.
Stone walls, stone beds, stone tables, and stone chairs, as far as the eye can see, are all related to stones, and Wuwu often has the illusion that he has entered the Stone Age.
Soon, she understood Ye Du's intention of such an arrangement.
Bang -
What was that?
Wuxian was looking down at a book when he suddenly heard a strange sound.
Bang -
The voice was clearer than before, as if it was right next to me.
A not-so-good premonition came to her heart, and she put the ancient books into the space ring for the first time.
Then, before she could make any preparations, the stone table in the corner of the wall split into three pieces from top to bottom in an instant, turning into three golden spears, which turned in the air and stabbed at her.
Golden, metallic sheen...... This turned out to be three golden spears?
Wait, the stone table has turned into gold, is this the ultimate meaning of turning stones into gold?
Is the teacher testing her?
Wu Wu dodged one of the spears that first stabbed at her, and when the other two attacked at the same time, she decisively stretched out her hands and took them firmly, and with a thought of it, the two golden spears in her hands fused into a round shield, reflecting the golden glitter.
The spear that had first grazed into the stone wall behind her, stabbing a huge hole and splashing countless pieces of fine stones, causing cracks in the wall.
The golden spear folded back again with the help of the elastic force of the wall, faster than the first time, and the sound of breaking through the air roared.
Wuxian unfolded his round shield and calmly blocked in front of him.
The spear and shield collided with each other, making a piercing grinding sound and sparks splashing everywhere.
Alchemy does not have a fixed practice mode, and it is difficult to compare the level of alchemy, but there is one basic skill that can definitely be used as a reference - the purity of metal refining.
The round shield was a second refinement of the two golden spears, but the result was unexpected, its purity was not as high as the third spear, so she was caught off guard.
With a click, the round shield split in two and fell off her hand, and the spear was unblocked, continuing to attack.
Fortunately, the distance between her and the spear was already very close, and at such a short distance, the spear lost its impact advantage and was grabbed by her.
Despite this, she was led a few steps back by Yu Wei.
The difficulty of turning stones into gold will increase exponentially with the rarity of refining metals, but she didn't expect that her refining level would be a mess in front of the teacher.
"Come again!" she wouldn't throw in easily.
As if in response to her call, the stone wall changed before she could finish speaking.
Four new walls have been formed around the room, but this time instead of stone, they are glittering sterling silver walls!
The space was immediately much narrower, and the space for her movement was slowly shrinking.
The four silver walls were not finished, and the outermost four iron walls rose from the ground, followed by the copper walls......
In the end, Wu Wu only barely occupied a foothold.
The temperature in the room began to rise sharply, and the metal walls were affected by the temperature and expanded.
If you continue like this, you will be squeezed to death!
With that, she raised her head and thought of a way out of the predicament, with a smile on the corner of her mouth and a gleam in her eyes.
Since the refining is not perfect, it is better to restore it.
Cut the spear in his hand into two ends and piece it together into a cross, just long enough to hold up to the four walls. The gold cross will definitely be able to withstand the pressure of copper, silver and iron.
With a light jump, he stepped on the center of the cross, jumped onto the beam under the roof, and flew out of the skylight next to him, leaving the room.
Turning around to the door, he reduced all the metal in the room to stone, and the space inside was completely blocked.
ā¦ā¦
"Good application. Ye Du exclaimed in the hall.
Everything just now was controlled remotely by him, in order to test his improvised ability.
The ever-changing nature of alchemy dictates that its application must be flexible, and an alchemical apprentice who is not good at adapting to changes will never be able to achieve anything in the field of alchemy, even if he has a solid foundation.
The test came to an end here, and there was no place to stay, so he had to come to Ye Du.
"The retreat can be over, you haven't had a good rest in the past few days, go to the tenth floor and pick a room for yourself, the environment there is much more comfortable than here. Ye Du smiled gently.
ā¦ā¦
The end of the retreat does not mean that the cultivation has stopped, in addition to practicing alone, more often than not, Wuxian will find the night watchman to exchange martial arts, from one-on-one heads-up, to one-on-three group picking, her progress can be called god-fast.
Taking advantage of the break, she asked them about Ye Liufeng's news.
"Don't you know? The young master went back to the Douling Branch two days ago. ā
She has been staying in the Scripture Pavilion and has never gone out, and Ye Du has not mentioned it, how can she know?
But isn't Ye Liufeng the guy who hates studying the most, what is he doing when he goes back to the Douling Branch?
"I heard that the first person he looked for was Qiu Cisheng. "Night Wind is very well informed.
"It's not going to fight with him, is it?" Wuxian's first reaction was this, but thinking about it didn't seem to be realistic. This is all serious, Ye Liufeng can't be indifferent.
Of course not, he did a test paper on the art of war at Qiu Cisheng, and then Qiu Cisheng led him to the dean's office and negotiated for an afternoon. ā
It turned out that Ye Liufeng's target was the dean.
His eyes suddenly brightened, and Wu Xian suddenly understood his thoughts.
The elders of the House of Elders, led by the Great Elder, seemed to have collectively rebelled and sided with Ye Zhong. Therefore, Ye Liufeng, as the orthodox heir, must find the forces that support him as soon as possible, so that he has the capital to confront them.
It can be seen from his own situation that the cabinet will not take a position until the end. And the only powerful resource that Ye Liufeng can fight for is the deans of the Twelfth Branch.
The Twelfth Dean, who holds all the martial arts foundations of the Ye family, is a good way to fight against the House of Elders.
I knew before, and I have witnessed it with my own eyes, that Ye Liufeng's most hated teacher is Qiu Cisheng, and now he is willing to take the initiative to find him, you can imagine how he put down his body and obediently listened to Qiu Cisheng's reprimand.
Wuxian smiled with relief, the teacher was right, adversity can really help him grow.
This rebellious and willful teenager seems to be a little different.
