Chapter 536: Master Kong Yuan
What is the Way of the Medicine Master?
Hanging a pot to help the world, cure diseases and save people, and take it as your responsibility to save the common people in the world?
Of course, this is true, but what Mei Xue wants to say is that everyone takes a different path, even if it is the same medicine master path, and in the end, everyone sees a different scenery.
Therefore, it doesn't matter if he can't refine the Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng, as long as he refines his own best elixir.
These eighteen glazed Bodhi fruits are the answer he gave.
In the crystal clear green Bodhi fruit, you can faintly see the shadow of the forgotten flower, which represents Mei Xue's first love and never forgets the summer memories of jì.
That's enough.
"Mei Xue, the refining is complete, and the elixir is called - Glazed Bodhi Fruit." Showing the eighteen transparent Bodhi fruits in her palm, Mei Xue announced the end of her alchemy.
"Glazed Bodhi Fruit, what kind of elixir is this?" Hua Lian looked at the eighteen Bodhi fruits in Mei Xue's palm, with a puzzled expression.
This is not only Hua Lian's doubt, but also the doubt of everyone in the pharmacy.
Including Hua Lao and other highly respected senior pharmacists, no one had ever heard of the elixir of the glazed Bodhi fruit, only the bitter fruit master of the War Academy was excited, and instinctively felt that this Bodhi fruit had a great mystery.
"This is the elixir I refined myself." Mei Xue shrugged her shoulders and shook it relaxedly, and the eighteen glazed Bodhi fruits naturally gathered together, forming the shape of a small glazed pagoda.
"Carving insect skills, you've already lost." After watching it for a long time, I couldn't tell what kind of elixir Mei Xue's so-called glazed Bodhi fruit was, and the dragon fish in the palm of Hua Lian's hand turned around, and he was indescribably complacent.
Because, she can already be sure that Mei Xue will lose this time.
"Okay, since both sides have completed the refining, then I will ask the director of the pharmacy, Master Kong Yuan, and the elders of the pharmacy to evaluate the results of the two." The acting dean of the Immortal Academy, Qingqing, took a step lightly, came to the front of the two, and stretched out his snow-white little hand.
"Here, it must be my victory." Hua Lian put the somewhat naughty Arowana in the palm of her innocent hand and raised her small fist.
Hualian, win!
"I'm tired." The glazed tower in Mei Xue's palm was also put into the palm of her innocent hand, and when the two of them made skin contact, their innocent faces quietly turned red, and in the next second, they shrunk back to the tutor of the Blue Dragon Academy.
Here, an old man who is older than Hua Lao has been waiting for a long time.
With white hair on his head and broken leaves of flowers and plants remaining on the corners of his clothes, this old man with the style of an immortal is the dean of the Pharmacy School of Qinglong Academy and the only divine pharmacist, Master Kong Yuan.
Originally, as the dean of the pharmacy academy, he was already in a state of semi-retirement, and he was taking care of those rare elixirs and the only fairy flower at the inner gate of the Qinglong Academy all day long, and the competition between Hua Lian and Mei Xue seemed to him to be just a child's play, and he didn't plan to come and see it at all.
However, when Hua Lian's identity as a pharmacist was revealed, even the retiring pharmacist was shocked, and he hurried over from the inner gate of Qinglong Academy, becoming the decisive figure in this pharmacist competition.
Beside him, there were a circle of medicine elders, and Hua Lao was naturally among them.
Although Hua Lao is almost the next president of the pharmacy, in this competition, he will never favor his little granddaughter, and even in order to avoid suspicion, he himself took the initiative to withdraw from this tasting.
Now, Hua Lian's Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng and Mei Xue's Glazed Bodhi Fruit were placed on a jade table, exuding their respective brilliance in the cold air emitted by the thousand-year-old cold jade
The Arowana transformed by the Nine Turns of Heavenly Spirit Ginseng was suspended on the jade table like that, and it circled around the entire jade table from time to time, I believe that if it wasn't for the ban set up by the innocence, this Arowana would have escaped long ago.
Obviously, this was Hua Lian's dismissal to Mei Xue, and she just wanted Mei Xue to know that compared to her Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng with a trace of spirituality, the fruits he refined were not worth mentioning at all.
In contrast, the pagoda composed of Mei Xue's glazed Bodhi fruits is extremely quiet, just like the process of Mei Xue's refining these glazed Bodhi fruits, which is stable and tranquil.
One movement, one stillness, the two elixirs showed their own completely different attributes, which can be said to be the product of two extremes.
However, in the eyes of ordinary people, there is no doubt that the dragon suspended in the air is more eye-catching.
This point, even Master Kong Yuan, who rushed over from the inner gate of the Blue Dragon Academy, was not exempt from vulgarity.
"Hehe, Nine Heavenly Spirit Ginseng, I haven't seen it for a long time, the last time I saw this elixir was a hundred years ago, when I went to Shennong's first vein...... "Touching his beard, Master Kong Yuan couldn't help but think of his past in Shennong's first vein.
As a divine pharmacist, he naturally received an invitation from the Shennong lineage to try to challenge the inheritance of the alchemist.
Unfortunately, he failed.
Not all divine pharmacists can become alchemists, even if they are born in the same vein as Shennong, if they want to become alchemists, they also need to challenge the inheritance left by Shennong, one of the twelve immortals.
If you succeed, you will have the qualifications to be an advanced alchemist.
If you fail, you will have nothing to do with the elixir for the rest of your life, so you should go back wherever you come from.
And he is the loser, the divine medicine master who failed to pass the Guò inheritance.
That inheritance, a divine pharmacist can only challenge three times in his life, even if he is a divine pharmacist from the Shennong lineage.
No one is privileged at this point, so his failure is purely due to lack of talent, and he falls short at the last moment, and regrets it for the rest of his life.
It was also during that experience of the Shennong lineage that he saw the Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng, which is known as the elixir of the legend of the Medicine Master's First Lineage.
Even in the Shennong lineage, there is such a saying, as long as you can refine the Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng, you will definitely become an alchemist.
This law has been proven many times, and the divine medicine master he saw refining a nine-turn heavenly spirit ginseng on that occasion has indeed passed all the tests with undoubted strength and has become a true alchemist.
And the name of that alchemist seems to be surnamed Hua, I'm afraid it is the elder of this Hua Lian.
After that time, he came to teach at the Blue Dragon Academy, and challenged again fifty years ago and twenty years ago, but unfortunately he still failed.
In fact, in the last two challenges, he originally thought that his alchemy skills were more mature and his mentality was more stable, but he did not have good results in the first time, which made him very disappointed for a while.
However, since the three opportunities have been used up, he will let go, and he will give up the idea of becoming an alchemist in this life, and honestly return to the Qinglong Academy and become the only royal divine medicine master in the Qinglong Academy.
Most of the divine medicine masters in the major immortal sects in the seas and mountains are like this, and there are many challenges to improve their cultivation and refining elixir skills with the help of the resources of the immortal gates, and those who do not have the number of challenges give up the idea of going further, and begin to teach their disciples like Kong Yuan, and open up branches and leaves for the medicine master.
This is also the end of most of the divine medicine masters who fail to challenge the alchemist's inheritance.
Compared with the immortal sorcerers, the divine medicine masters have their own lineage, after all, the elixir is too rare, and the elixirs refined by Shennong are not enough for the major immortal sects and holy lands, in contrast, the divine pharmacist is the real stable elixir provider, and it can be said that the entire sea and mountains have a transcendent identity.
When Kong Yuan saw the Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng refined by Hua Lian, he had actually already decided the outcome of this competition.
This is not because of his experience in Shennong, which led him to favor Hua Lian, but because Hua Lian really couldn't do better.
A divine medicine master who can refine the Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng will inevitably become an alchemist, which is an unwritten rule that circulates in the Shennong lineage.
Therefore, in Kong Yuan's mind, Hua Lian was already a quasi-alchemist.
Mei Xue's talent may not be bad, but in terms of talent for refining medicine, it is obvious that Hua Lian has reached the apex of the divine medicine master.
"Teacher, what is the mystery of this Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng?" One of the elders of the medicine institute, an old man who was already over a hundred years old, stretched out his hand and touched the dragon fish, obviously not seeing the true mystery contained in this dragon jade.
"Well, no wonder you can't see it, it's not something you can see by looking at the outside." Kong Yuan looked at his disciples, these are all real pharmacists who have been immersed in refining medicine all their lives, but unfortunately their talents are limited, and they probably have no hope of breaking through the threshold of senior pharmacists in their lifetime.
If you don't become a divine medicine master, then even if you can maintain your body, your longevity will only be about a hundred years old, these disciples were pulled out by him, but now he is still alive and well, but they don't have many days left.
This is the difference between immortals and mortals, there is nothing to be done, even if he is a divine medicine master, there is no way to change this situation.
"You should all know that the Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng can improve your cultivation, but what I want to tell you is that there are actually other uses for this Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng."
Grabbing the lively Arowana with his hand, Kong Yuan suddenly shook.
Arowana shuddered violently, and then his whole body fell apart, looking at Dean Kong Yuan, who was playing with him, with a look of resentment.
"Haha, see, this kind of table xiàn is the essence of the Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng, using the spirit of plants and trees to transform the essence of the birth spirit, this dragon fish itself is a miracle."
"Look at this dead fish eye, I guess they all hate me and want to bite me." Although he was almost two hundred years old, Master Kong Yuan was still full of humor, which embarrassed the group of disciples around him.
"Gem, true gem, the highest masterpiece of the Divine Medicine Master." After teasing the Arowana, Master Kong Yuan still gave Hua Lian the highest evaluation, and he felt the feeling of seeing the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves.
As for Mei Xue's glazed Bodhi fruit, it seems to have been forgotten.
After enthusiastically appreciating Hua Lian's Nine Turns Heavenly Spirit Ginseng for a long time, Master Kong Yuan let go of the Arowana who was being played with and was shy to death, and focused on Mei Xue's glazed Bodhi fruit.
"What the hell is this...... What an elixir. After looking at it again and again, Master Kong Yuan looked at his disciples with a puzzled expression.
