Chen Ze also lost his mind at this moment.

He had to admit that even in his heyday, compared with today's Chu Nan, it was far inferior.

Such a difference is not reflected in Chu Nan's "inviolability against a hundred poisons", but Chu Nan's ability to refine poison pills.

With this level of poison pill, he couldn't refine it......

Even in the entire Alchemy Department of Donglou Mansion, there may not be anyone who can refine this level of poison pill.

And the reason why Chu Nan was able to refine such an amazing poison pill here was not only because he had a strong talent in alchemy, but also because of the poison body that he was rapidly forming now, which was also related to a certain extent.

Formation of poison bodies......

makes his affinity for toxins far stronger than ordinary people, and in the refining of poison pills, it is easier to refine poison pills with fierce poison poison.

Now, after swallowing the poison pill he had refined, Chu Nan could clearly feel the erysipelas accumulated in his body, which directly reached the level of forming a poisonous body.

His physique is gradually changing, and the strength of the whole person has improved again.

And the Dan membrane in the body has also increased to a great extent, and it is one step closer to the Dan!

Chu Nan believed that in the future, as long as he continued to refine the poison pill to swallow it, this would undoubtedly be a way to speed up the formation of the pill.

......

On the same day, Fu Shuang's name spread throughout the entire Alchemy Department like a wildfire, like a ten-magnitude earthquake, setting off an unprecedented huge sensation in the entire Alchemy Department.

Chu Nan first left the Ming Dan in the Ming Dan Building, and made Zhou Danshi, who was a dignified four-grade alchemist, become his disciple and gave him the name Ergou......

Later, he created a Dandou record of one person facing dozens of people, and it is even more suspected that all poisons are inviolable......

In less than a day, what happened here in Chu Nan became more and more sensational, making the entire alchemy department aware of his existence.

In the evening of the same day.

In the courtyard, many alchemists came to visit Chu Nan.

Even the fourth-grade alchemists have come.

At first, when these fourth-grade alchemists heard the news about Chu Nan, they all thought that the rumors were a bit exaggerated and didn't believe it, until they got the answer from Zhou Danshi, they realized that the rumors didn't have any exaggeration.

Now after seeing Chu Nan, although Chu Nan was still wearing the robe of a first-grade alchemist, they did not put on any show in front of Chu Nan, and completely regarded Chu Nan as an existence of equal status, and even vaguely ...... Slightly lower.

At the same time, there are also people who are not convinced, and they specially come to challenge Chu Nan and want to fight with Chu Nan.

For such a person, Chu Nan is very welcome, but after Chu Nan swallowed his own poison pill, he came to swallow the poison pill of these alchemists, and found that the effect was much smaller.

This made Chu Nan realize that as he swallowed more poison pills, the weaker poison pills would gradually decrease, and only by swallowing more and stronger poison pills could he make the erysipelas in his body continue to grow.

And these alchemists who were not satisfied with Chu Nan, after witnessing Chu Nan's "inviolability of a hundred poisons", they had a strong shock in their hearts, and before Chu Nan could refine the poison pill, they had already admitted defeat in advance.

This made those who still had doubts about Chu Nan eliminate the doubts in their hearts, and they were even more afraid of Chu Nan here.

Night.

After the many alchemists who came to visit Chu Nan left, only Chu Nan, Dong Yuchen and Chen Ze were left in the entire mansion.

Still under the big tree in the backyard.

Chen Ze sat here quietly, after taking a bath, he trimmed his hair and changed into a clean robe, although the decadence on his body dissipated a little, but his eyes were still dim, and he was still full of confusion about life.

Chu Nan came to the backyard, holding two jugs of wine in his hand, and after putting one of the jugs of wine in front of Chen Ze, he sat down at the other end.

The two did not speak, but drank silently.

When Chu Nan finished drinking the wine in the pot, he stood up and prepared to leave, but just after taking two steps, Chen Ze's hoarse but sincere voice came.

"Thank you. ”

Chu Nan's footsteps did not stop, and he continued to walk forward without looking back, but his voice sounded in this backyard.

"I can imagine your pain, but I can't feel it, because I haven't experienced it, maybe your self-abandonment can make you feel better, but in my opinion...... Some aren't worth it. ”

After Chu Nan finished speaking, he didn't care what kind of reaction Chen Ze would have, or ...... There was no response, and he walked straight away.

He knew very well that under this kind of blow, no matter what kind of words he said, whether he would cheer up in the end or not still depended on Chen Ze himself.

Now he's just saying what he wants to say.

At the same time, for Chen Ze's decadence, Chu Nan gradually had some different thoughts in his heart.

At first, he, like everyone else, felt that Chen Ze's decadence was due to the betrayal of his wife and brother, but now it seems that it is very likely that it is not as simple as it seems.

If Chen Ze was decadent because of love, it would be impossible for him to have some cheer up after seeing him show his amazing alchemy talent, and it would be impossible for him to be grateful to himself because he stood up for him this time.

Usually people who have experienced such a major betrayal will no longer trust people easily.

But Chen Ze was here and grateful to Chu Nan for standing up this time, and when Chu Nan first started to fight with Na Guodan, others didn't notice it, but Chu Nan saw Xie Dan quietly appearing in Chen Ze's hand at that time......

All this made Chu Nan suspicious of Chen Ze's decadence.

Chu Nan felt that if it was him......

If he is betrayed by the people closest to him, it will be difficult for him to trust anyone after that, especially this kind of stranger who suddenly stands up for him, he will suspect whether the other party has any intentions.

But Chen Ze is here......

But there is not much suspicion about Chu Nan, this is not the behavior that a person who has suffered a major betrayal should be.

Although he was curious, Chu Nan didn't ask too much, this was always someone else's private matter.

Even if he stood up for Chen Ze this time and made the relationship between the two sides friendly, it has not yet reached the point where he can share everything.

......

The next day.

When Chu Nan walked out of the room, he didn't see Chen Ze in the backyard.

However, in the place where I drank last night, I found a jade slip, which should have been left by Chen Ze.

Chu Nan held the jade slip, his eyes flickered slightly, and then infiltrated the demon sense into the jade slip, and he was immediately surprised to find that this jade slip ...... It turned out to be a complete alchemy method!

Chu Nan knew that the method of alchemy was like the method of spiritual cultivation, and there was a distinction between high and low.

A truly powerful and complete alchemy method often exists in those forces dominated by alchemists, as the foundation of their forces.

For example, on the territory of the Chiyue Alliance that Chu Nan saw earlier in Su Lao, he had seen an alchemy master sect comparable to Jiang Guo, such a force would have its unique and complete alchemy method.

Although Donglou Mansion has a separate alchemy department, this force is not dominated by alchemists, so the alchemy methods of this alchemy department are also the most common type of alchemy methods, and their value is just like those most ordinary mortal spirit qi cultivation methods.

Not to mention the bad streets, but basically you can buy them in the market.

And now this jade slip that is suspected to be left by Chen Ze has a complete alchemy method, which is completely different from the alchemy method circulating in the market!

This kind of ordinary alchemy method circulating in the market often does not even have a name, it is just called the alchemy method.

And now the alchemy method in this jade slip has a name-

Purple Pill Refining Technique!

Chu Nan's heart shook.

Although he hadn't been in the south of the alliance for a long time, he also clearly knew how amazing the value of this kind of alchemy method was!

And most importantly......

This kind of alchemy method is usually not passed on to the outside world, and even money cannot buy it.

Only by joining those forces dominated by alchemists can they have the opportunity to come into contact with this kind of alchemy method.

Now the "Purple Pill Refining Technique" recorded in this jade slip is very likely to come from a certain force dominated by alchemists, which made Chu Nan have doubts about Chen Ze again.

"This person is by no means as simple as it seems......"

Chu Nan's eyes narrowed slightly.

He couldn't even be sure now whether Chen Ze gave this jade slip to himself out of gratitude to himself, or if it was ...... Have an axe to grind!

Usually, if this kind of alchemy method cannot be passed on, if it is unfortunately passed on, not only will the people who spread it misfortune, but also those who practice it under the spread will also be implicated.

"Perhaps...... He had no ill intentions. ”

Chu Nan carefully recalled everything that happened after meeting Chen Ze, and felt that although Chen Ze had a secret here, he was not a scheming person, nor did he look like the kind of villain who would take revenge.

From Chu Nan's swallowing of the poison pill at that time, and his silent action of taking out the solution pill, it can be seen that he is a person.

Just as Chu Nan was thinking, the sound transmission jade slip in the spirit bag suddenly shook.

After Chu Nan took it out, a familiar voice came out of the jade slip.

"Fu Shuang, come here. ”

This voice is the voice of the head of the alchemy department, Guo Haiya!

Chu Nan didn't have too many surprises about this.

He had long known that Guo Haiya's initial arrangement for him was just a test and test for himself.

What he wanted to see......

It's how much time it takes me to get to where I am today.

Immediately.

After Chu Nan put the jade slip of the sound transmission and the jade slip that recorded the purple pill refining recipe into the spirit bag, he rushed all the way towards the medicinal herb forest of the sea cliff.

Inside the Herb Forest, in front of a humble house that belongs to the Sea Cliffs.

Guo Haiya did not stay in the house, but sat cross-legged outside the house, and opposite him, sat the calm look of Manager Zhou.

Between the two, a chessboard was placed, and at the same time, there was a fist-sized stone cup in each hand, with heat wafting from it, with a stream of agarwood, around the surroundings.

"Excuse me, you've lost. ”

Manager Zhou landed the chess pieces in his hand on the chessboard, looked up and laughed.

Guo Haiya smiled, picked up the stone cup on the side, and took a sip gently.

"Lao Zhou, this is the happiest I have been since losing to you in all these years. ”

"Of course, I brought a genius to your alchemy department!"

Mr. Zhou said with a smile.

What they mean by winning or losing is not just winning or losing on the chessboard, but also one of their bets!

Earlier, after Chief Manager Zhou brought Chu Nan here, he did not leave, but stayed here and made a bet with Guo Haiya.

Manager Zhou said that he would stay here for three days, and after three days, he would leave here.

And before he left, Chu Nan would definitely be able to make a name for himself in the Alchemy Department, even if Chu Nan was only a first-grade alchemist, he could have a reputation and status comparable to that of a third-grade alchemist.

Guo Haiya thought that three days was too short, and his arrangement of Chu Nan had added a lot of difficulty to Chu Nan, even if Chu Nan was special, it was difficult to do it in just three days.

Thereupon......

The two had this bet.

It has not been three days now, and Chu Nan's fame and status not only surpass the third-grade alchemists, but even the fourth-grade alchemists regard Chu Nan as an existence of equal status, and they also feel that Chu Nan is slightly higher than them.

This was far beyond the expectations of the two.

Even if Manager Zhou knew that Chu Nan was very extraordinary in alchemy, he didn't expect that Chu Nan would be even more outstanding in terms of poison pill refining than spirit pill.

"No poison...... This should be a rare and rare physique, with Fu Shuang's talent in alchemy, and with such a physique, it is not impossible to compete for the chief alchemist of the three major alliance clans in the future!"

Besides, Haiya's eyes glowed, and his knowledge was far beyond that of other alchemists in the Alchemy Department, and he knew that some people in this world were born with special physiques.

It's just that there is no one in ten thousand such people!

Now there is an alchemist with such a physique in their Donglou Mansion.

The value of Chu Nan here has suddenly increased several times in the mind of Guo Haiya.

Soon.

Chu Nan came to this familiar place again.

He could feel that whether it was Guo Haiya or Manager Zhou, the gaze that looked at him now had changed greatly.

Especially the sea cliff, its gaze is extremely hot.

"Fu Shuang, you...... Very good, very good! After discussing with Lao Zhou, we have decided to officially appoint you as the deputy head of my Donglou Mansion Alchemy Department from now on!"

"Deputy Master?"

Chu Nan was shocked.

Although he had expected that Guo Haiya would have new arrangements for him, he didn't expect that the other party would directly promote him to the deputy master!

This position is extremely high, second only to Guo Haiya, before that, Chu Nan was just a first-grade alchemist, and now it can almost be called a step to the sky!

In the past, no one had ever been able to become the deputy head of the alchemy department from a first-grade alchemist.

Chu Nan can be said to have set a record......

"With your ability, you are fully qualified for this position, and I believe that no one in this alchemy department will be dissatisfied. ”

Guo Haiya smiled.

"Not bad. ”

Manager Zhou on the side nodded.

"Although you are still young and have just joined our Donglou Mansion, we absolutely believe in you and hope that you can treat this place as your home. ”

Chu Nan's eyes flashed slightly.

He knew that the reason why the two of them gave him such a high position was because after they really saw their potential, they wanted to win him over and make himself grateful to the existence of Donglou Mansion, so as to have a sense of belonging.

This is normal, after all, this world is like this, only the strong and geniuses can be valued.

Although this position of deputy head came a little quickly, this is exactly what Chu Nan needs.

Only with this kind of elevation in status can he directly have sufficient status when he joins the three major alliances in the future.

Immediately, Chu Nan looked at the two of them and bowed with his fists.

"Thank you, Master Zhou, and thank you, Manager Zhou. ”

The joy of Haiya and Manager Zhou was overflowing, and there was no concealment.

Over the years, their Donglou Mansion has always been in decline, but whenever there is a potential genius in Jiang Guo, few people will choose to join their Donglou Mansion.

The shortage of talents makes it difficult to improve their status in Jiang Guo.

Now that Chu Nan has appeared, they have finally seen hope, after all, with Chu Nan's qualifications here, one person is worth all of the other three prefectures.

After handing over the deputy master's robe, voice transmission token and other things to Chu Nan, and telling Chu Nan about the many rights that the deputy master had in the alchemy department, Guo Haiya's face suddenly became solemn and said to Chu Nan.

"Fu Shuang, these three months, I want you to prepare well, three months later, there will be an alchemist meeting, this meeting is particularly important for our alchemy department, and even the entire Donglou Mansion. ”

"Alchemist meeting?"

Chu Nan was stunned.

"Not bad. Manager Zhou's expression also became serious.

"In this meeting, not only will the alchemists from our four provinces participate, but the royal family will also send alchemists to participate. Don't take it lightly because it's a meeting, the meeting ...... It's just a superficial name, but in fact, this so-called meeting is a struggle between alchemists. ”

Chu Nan nodded, he knew that there had always been competition between the four mansions of Jiang State, but even the royal family of Jiang State was involved in this meeting, which made Chu Nan very surprised.

"This matter is not a big secret, many people in our Donglou Mansion know about it. ”

"Every ten years, such a meeting will be held, not only for us alchemists, but also for cultivators and refiners. And the meeting is carried out for the purpose of ...... Compete for a spot!"

Mr. Zhou said solemnly.

"In our Chiyue Alliance, there is a place where opportunities and crises coexist, and this place ...... It's called the Akagaku Abyss!"

"The Chiyue Abyss is controlled by the three major alliances, and it will be opened once every ten years, but the number of places is limited, so before the Chiyue Abyss is about to open, the forces in the Chiyue Alliance will compete for places. ”

"We, Jiang Country, only have a total of nine places, alchemists...... There are only three places. These three places will be born in the Alchemist Conference. ”

Chu Nan suddenly realized in his heart that the competition for these three places must be extremely fierce!

In addition to the four mansions, even the royal family of Jiang Kingdom will also participate, which is equivalent to five forces competing for the only three places.

"We have not been awarded a place in Donglou Mansion for many years, and this time we ...... Our goal is to win a spot in the Alchemist Conference. Guo Haiya said in a deep voice.

......

When Chu Nan walked out of the herb forest, he had already put on a new robe, this was a dark blue robe, which was particularly conspicuous in the alchemy department, and all the people who witnessed it felt shocked, and bowed their heads respectfully to Chu Nan.

They all knew very well what this robe meant!

This is......

Only the deputy head of the Alchemy Department is qualified to wear the robe!

Everyone didn't expect that Chu Nan would be able to be directly promoted from a first-grade alchemy master to a deputy department master second only to the department head Guo Haiya on the second day!

Such an exaggerated multi-level jump was unprecedented in the previous alchemy department!

For a while, Chu Nan's promotion to deputy head once again caused a shock in the alchemy department.

Chu Nan returned to the mansion all the way, and his heart was heavy, although he has now become the deputy head of the department, he has no idea of changing his place of residence, and he is ready to continue to live here.

Anyway, with his current authority in the Alchemy Department, he doesn't have to grow medicinal herbs by himself, if he needs medicinal herbs, he can directly enter the medicinal herb forest to pick them, and alchemy can also be refined using the best alchemy furnace in the Alchemy Department, so there is no need to change his residence.

When Chu Nan returned to the mansion, he immediately found Dong Yuchen and told him about the Chiyue Abyss.

"Akagaku Abyssal ......"

Dong Yuchen was thrilled by this.

From Chu Nan's words, he learned that in the Chiyue Abyss, in addition to the existence of many rare medicinal herbs that are extremely difficult to grow in the outside world, as well as some lost alchemy methods and refining materials, there is ...... It is also a treasure place that can help spiritual cultivators to form pills!

This is also the reason why every time the Chiyue Abyss opens, all the forces want to enter it!

Akagaku Abyss......

Not only is there a huge benefit to alchemists, but it is also a treasure land of chance for refiners and cultivators!

Earlier, after Chu Nan learned about the situation in the Chiyue Abyss, he immediately thought of the problem that he and Dong Yuchen were facing now.

Dong Yuchen once had some chances, which made it far more difficult for him to marry Dan than ordinary people.

And Chu Nan needs to get more improvements in the experience in order to strengthen the power of the knot and complete the knot.

Whether it is Chu Nan or Dong Yuchen, it is not easy to get married.

And now......

This Chiyue Abyss is undoubtedly a huge opportunity for the two of them.

It's just that now when you want to enter the Abyss of Akadake, the biggest problem is that the number of places is limited......

Even if Chu Nan was able to get a quota in the alchemist meeting three months later, he could only let himself enter the Chiyue Abyss at most, and he couldn't bring Dong Yuchen into it together.

Dong Yuchen's current identity is just a medicine boy in Chu Nan, even if there are more places in Donglou Mansion, it will not be his turn.

"You want to ...... Let me change my identity?"

Dong Yuchen's eyes flashed, and he instantly understood Chu Nan's thoughts.

Chu Nan nodded.

"In the entire Jiang country, there will only be nine places in total, alchemists occupy three, refiners occupy three, and spiritual cultivators occupy three, I will fight for one of the three places of alchemists, and after you change your identity, you will compete for the quota of spiritual cultivators, so ...... Only then will you have the opportunity to enter the abyss of Mt. Chidake. ”

Chu Nan had already heard from Guo Haiya and Chief Manager Zhou that there were restrictions on the cultivation of cultivators who entered the Chiyue Abyss, and they had to be spiritual fusion realm cultivators before they could enter the Chiyue Abyss.

In this way, without the participation of the soul cultivators of the Yu Dan Realm, with Dong Yuchen's strength, the average Spirit Fusion Realm cultivator is not his opponent at all, and it is not difficult for him to win this place.

At the same time, with Dong Yuchen's hidden method, it is easy to change his identity again.

He only needs to change his identity, join a faction at will, and in the remaining three months, he will rise from the joining force, just like Chu Nan, and naturally get the opportunity to compete for places.

At that time, the two of them will be able to enter the Abyss of Akagaku together.

Dong Yuchen agreed with Chu Nan's idea, and he naturally would not miss such an opportunity.

"Although I have changed my identity, you need to help me keep my current identity. ”

Dong Yuchen said.

Chu Nan nodded.

He understood what Dong Yuchen meant.

Dong Yuchen changed his identity this time, just to enter the Chiyue Abyss, and after leaving the Chiyue Abyss, he would continue to be a medicine boy back to Chunan.

He was well aware......

In the future, once they come into contact with more huge forces, those huge forces will strictly investigate their origins, and now that the identities of him and Chu Nan are clear, if they suddenly change to a new identity, they will inevitably not be able to withstand the strict scrutiny of those huge forces.

Therefore, his change of identity this time is only temporary, and after leaving the Chiyue Abyss, he will disappear and become a medicine boy in Chu Nan again.

And now that he, a medicine boy, needs to disappear for a while, Chu Nan needs to find an excuse to make his disappearance reasonable......

Even if it is found by a huge force in the future, it will not leave a flaw.
