Chapter 378: Alchemist
After calling Man'er into the room, I asked her urgently, "My current cultivation has reached the peak of the Heavenly Rank, but I got stuck here. Can't go any further! What's going on? ”
"Heavenly Rank Peak?" Man'er looked at me blankly, and then continued: "Young Master, your current cultivation is the peak of Gathering Spirits!" What are you talking about the pinnacle of the Heavenly Order? ”
Gathering Spirit Peak!?
Oh, it must be that the name of cultivation here is different from that on Earth, but it doesn't affect anything.
"Okay, even if it's the pinnacle of Gathering Spirits! So how can I advance to become a spirit master? I said to Man'er.
"Oh, it's easy. All you need to do is take one Elixir! Man'er said to me.
"Gathering Elixir!? What kind of elixir is this? I asked Man'er.
Man'er didn't answer my question directly. Instead, he said with a look of regret: "If we had known that your cultivation would recover so quickly, we should have asked the master to leave a Gathering Spirit Pill!" ”
Hearing her words, I asked, "Is this elixir very expensive?" ”
"Well, although the Gathering Spirit Pill is only a first-order spirit pill, it is because there are many people who need it. So the price is more expensive than all the other first-order elixirs! Man'er nodded at me in reply.
"Oh, how much does it cost?" I asked Man'er.
"Those with low grades need 10,000 spirit points!" Man'er said to me.
10,000 spirits?
My purple order has been destroyed in teleportation. Even if it wasn't destroyed, all my spiritual points would have been used up in the Spirit Mountain Tower.
"Ten thousand souls!!" I said with some disappointment.
"That's right, I can make up to four thousand spirit points now!" Man'er said to me curtly.
"It's okay!" Looking at Man'er's appearance, I quickly waved my hand at her and said.
"That...... Why don't we go to the master. The old man is a second-grade alchemist, and a Gathering Spirit Pill is a trivial matter for him! Man'er said to me.
Hearing Man'er's words, I groaned slightly and said, "No, my uncle asked me not to contact him as much as possible." If he doesn't come to us, let's not go to him! ”
"What then? If you don't have the Gathering Spirit Pill, your cultivation will not be able to progress any longer! Man'er was a little anxious.
"Hehe, don't worry. I've just resumed my cultivation, so it's okay to wait! I said to Man'er.
"That'...... That's all it can be! Because we really can't make up 10,000 spirits right now. Man'er's mood seemed a little low. It seems that it is her fault that she can't make up so many spiritual points.
"Alright, it's none of your business! Have you forgotten? My uncle has already recorded the Seven Dans to me. Even if my uncle doesn't come for a long time, it doesn't matter, I can do my own alchemy! I comforted Man'er.
"That's right! How did I forget about it! The master explained to me that as long as your cultivation is restored, you can let me assist you in learning alchemy. As long as you can become an alchemist, even if it is a first-grade alchemist, you can survive in these Seven Realms! Man'er said to me.
"Oh, is it? The alchemist can eat so much!? "I was just comforting Man'er, but I didn't expect my uncle to have such an explanation to her.
"Well, every alchemist in these Seven Realms is very precious. Because everyone's cultivation is inseparable from the elixir in the process of improvement. Man'er nodded at me in reply.
"Isn't that everyone willing to learn alchemy?" I said to Man'er.
"Of course, but if you want to become an alchemist, it's a simple matter." Man'er said.
"Oh, then how does my uncle know that I can become an alchemist? What are the requirements to become an alchemist? I asked Man'er suspiciously.
When Man'er heard my words, she immediately replied to me, "Bloodline inheritance, this is a necessary prerequisite!?" ”
"Bloodline? What do you mean? I continued.
"Because alchemy requires fire, and it must be the fire of the wood spirit. And the attribute of spiritual power, which is innate, cannot be changed at all! Therefore, only those who possess the Wood Spirit Fire can become alchemists. You are the nephew of the master, so there must be your mother's inheritance and your wood spirit fire in your blood! So, you can become an alchemist! Man'er explained to me.
Wood Spirit Fire?
Bloodline! So that's it!
"You also have the Wood Spirit Fire?" I asked Man'er.
"I ...... I didn't!! Man'er replied to me.
"Huh? Didn't you say you could teach me alchemy? I asked.
When Man'er heard this, she said to me with a smile: "It's not to teach you alchemy, it's to assist you in alchemy!" ”
"Assist me in alchemy!? ...... this," I asked.
Hearing this, Man'er continued to say to me, "Because my spiritual power is water attribute. And I have the aura of the water spirit! ”
"Water Spirit? What is needed for alchemy? I asked.
"Yes, in the process of alchemy, the water spirit qi is required. Therefore, every alchemist will have a person with the aura of the water spirit by his side. Man'er said to me.
"Oh, I see! That means I have to cooperate with you every time I do alchemy! I said to Man'er.
"Nope! No! No! I can't say it's cooperation, it's you, I'm just cooperating with you!! Man'er said.
"That'...... Don't you feel aggrieved? Every time the elixir is refined, you also have your credit! I asked Man'er with a smile.
"Hehe, how can it be said that it is a grievance? Those of us who possess the aura of the water spirit are born to cooperate with the alchemist. In the process, we also get a lot of benefits ourselves! Therefore, every person who has the aura of the water spirit hopes to be able to find a powerful alchemist to rely on! Man'er said to me.
"Dependent?" I asked, confused.
"Yes! Because there are many people who have the water spirit qi, but there are very, very few who have the wood spirit fire! Man'er said to me.
"Oh, I see!!" I nodded.
A person like Man'er, who has the aura of water spirit, is called Cong Danshi here. In fact, compared to Danshi, the gap between their status and Danshi is very, very large. A lot of alchemists are surrounded by a large number of followers. You can use whatever you like, even if it is too much to ask of you, you have to agree. Otherwise, there will be a lot of people who will happily replace you.
"So......" Man'er hesitated.
Looking at her appearance, I immediately smiled and said to her, "Hehe, don't worry! If I can become an alchemist, then I will only be alchemy with you for the rest of my life! Definitely not alchemy with others! ”
"I ...... Thank you, young master! When Man'er heard my words, she looked a little excited, and her eyes began to redden.
I was most afraid of a woman crying, and when I saw that she was about to cry, I quickly said to her: "Okay, you can tell me about alchemy!" I'll see if I can refine the Gathering Spirit Pill as soon as possible! ”
"Hmmm! Good! Man'er sniffled.
After that, Man'er told me everything about alchemy in detail.
"Then do we have enough spiritual value to buy materials now?" After listening to Man'er's explanation, I asked her.
"I've already prepared the Dan furnace. We should barely have enough money to buy some basic medicinal herbs! Man'er said to me.
"Oh, why don't we go buy some materials now!" I said to Man'er.
"Everything is arranged by the young master!" Man'er has always been very polite to me.
"Okay, let's go! I haven't been out in a long time. By the way, you can also take me around this Cangyun City! I said happily to Man'er.
Man'er answered, took off her cooking apron, went to the kitchen to clean up briefly, and then took me out.
On the way, Man'er told me that the alchemist's Dan furnace would not prepare it himself. That's all from the Danshi. In order to take refuge in a powerful alchemist, many Dan masters will do whatever it takes to collect the good Dan furnace and the heavenly and earthly treasures needed by the Dan master to advance the wood spirit fire.
For this, Man'er also apologized to me, saying that the Dan furnace she prepared was not good.
I don't care about that. Because I'm still learning alchemy, I don't need any good Dan furnaces at all.
And even if I really become an alchemist in the future, I don't need to ask Man'er to help me find the Dan Furnace.
Although Man'er has always called me young master, I have never regarded her as a slave in my heart. I am still full of gratitude to her because she has served me with all her heart and soul during my injury. A woman like this is no longer seen in the Huaxia Continent.
Cangyun City is very large and lively.
Looking at the endless flow of people, I couldn't help but feel a lot better.
There are many shops on both sides of the wide street. There are many types of shops, it can be said that there are everything, and this prosperous appearance is comparable to the first-tier cities in mainland China.
Man'er and I first went to a restaurant, and after eating some things, we went to the shop that specialized in buying and selling alchemy materials.
"Young master, this medicinal incense shop is the largest pill shop in Cangyun City, not only selling alchemy materials, but also refining pills for sale!" Coming to a five-story pavilion, Man'er pointed to the signboard and said to me.
"Well, let's go! Let's go in and have a look! I nodded, and stepped inside.
Man'er should have been here, and she took me to quickly find the counter selling alchemy materials: "Hello, we want to buy some medicinal materials!" ”
There was an old man at the counter, and when he heard Man'er's words, he first looked at Man'er, and then looked at me. Then he asked Man'er, "What kind of medicine do you want to buy?" ”
"Oh, we want two hundred kudzu roots, three hundred pineapple grasses, and five hundred purple moon flowers." Man'er said to me.
"Oh, is it used to learn alchemy?" The old man glanced at me and said.
"Yes!" Man'er replied honestly.
When the old man heard this, he looked at me again, and without saying anything, he went to prepare the medicinal herbs that Man'er wanted.
At this moment, I saw a man in a fancy costume walking towards us with four women.
His eyes sparkled with a sparkle as he looked at Man'er.
"Both, do you want to learn alchemy?" The man came over and said to us. But his eyes were always looking at Man'er.
Man'er was about to answer him when I reached out and pulled her. Then he stood in front of Man'er and said lightly to the man: "Yes, what advice does Your Excellency have?" ”
When the man saw that I was blocking Man'er, his eyes flashed with a hint of cruelty......
