Xuanmai was also stunned when he saw this strange scene, and asked rhetorically: "What apprentice? I have been alchemy for more than 40 years, and I have never accepted disciples, where did I come from? Presumably, this elder recognized the wrong person, right?"

Li Kong shook his head into a rattle and said categorically: "Master, how can you deny me?

Didn't you set up a field outside the Longyuan City Market to explain the antipyretic and detoxifying effects of dragon tree root? I can still recite it word by word, didn't you say at that time that everyone who listened to your class was equivalent to your registered disciple?"

Xuanmai couldn't cry or laugh for a while, he was just a young first-grade alchemist, wandering around the world, and just happened to be in the Longyuan City market to popularize the science of medicinal materials.

At that time, most people didn't take it seriously when they just said a few polite words, but they didn't expect this elder to remember it now.

As we all know, although the first-grade alchemist has a certain ability, strictly speaking, he is still a character who has just come out of the apprenticeship level, and he does not have the qualifications to accept apprentices. At the beginning, he said that there were four hundred and four registered disciples present, but it was actually just a joke!

How many years have passed, and Li Kong still remembers that Xuanmai was depressed, and that was the darkest period of time for him, because this matter was later punished by the Alchemy Association and made him shut up for a month.

In fact, he really had to take in four hundred and four apprentices, and he still had to exhaust himself to death? Where would he have time to concentrate on studying the Dan Technique?

"This elder, I was just saying a polite remark, not really......"

Xuanmai didn't give Li Kong face at all, and directly told the facts.

However, Li Kong is not discouraged, this is not good, then it can be directly patted on the back, "Master Xuan's Danshu has no ancients before and after him, and he is a model for my generation of alchemists......"

However, as soon as he spoke, he was directly interrupted by the head of Haotian.

The head of the gate had a black line, and his voice was a little stern and reprimanded: "Li Kong, you pay attention to your identity, don't embarrass the Heaven and Earth Gate!

These words did not give face to the elders at all, Li Kong's face suddenly collapsed, he is now popular, and the head of the family actually embarrassed him in front of everyone?

Haotian would never have thought that the person he once picked up with his own hands would now hate himself for a word.

Li Kong's heart was not angry, and he couldn't help but start to resist the master.

I thought to myself: "What kind of worldly master are you pretending to be? No matter how powerful you are, can you still be as powerful as Wang Kun, the head of the Wang family? People have already stepped into the seventh realm for many years, and you have only just stepped into it." ”

Although he was very unhappy in his heart, Li Kong was not bold enough to dare to disobey the order of the head in front of so many people, so he could only shrink his neck and let go of Master Xuanmai's thighs and retreat to the side.

Xuanmai finally breathed a sigh of relief, calmly walked in front of the master, and the two saluted each other again, and then sat down and began to discuss business.

The head of Haotian doesn't like to beat around the bush, so he said straight to the point: "I heard that the Alchemy Association can already refine Juyuan Dan, I don't know if I can provide some Juyuan Dan to Tiandimen?"

The effect of the first-grade pill Juyuan Dan is similar to that of Guyuan Dan, both of which have the effect of improving the power of the realm, which is of great help to martial artists.

The difference is that the principle of action of Guyuan Dan is to give birth to the power of the realm, while Juyuan Dan is a complete process of integrating into one.

This also determines that after taking Gu Yuan Dan, the disciples still need a long absorption process to transform the power of the realm, while the Ju Yuan Dan can directly condense the power of the realm in one process, allowing the disciples to absorb it quickly.

More importantly, this kind of pill belongs to the category with the lowest side effects among the first-class pills, and on the whole, it is far stronger than the backward Guyuan Dan.

In fact, the Heaven and Earth Sect has always provided Gu Yuan Dan to most of its disciples, and these things have worked well for decades, but now they will be easily opened up by other sects.

Without the support of good pills, the cultivation speed of the disciples is one heaven and one underground, and it is not comparable to others at all. This is also an important reason why the Heaven and Earth Sect will lag behind other sects and become second-rate.

The head of Haotian has been trying to solve this problem for more than ten years, but the alchemy technology inside the door is limited, and now he can only turn to the alchemy association outside, if the alchemy association is willing to provide Juyuan Dan, presumably this problem can be solved.

This request was originally for mutual benefit and win-win results, but Xuanmai was embarrassed and said: "The Alchemy Association has indeed been able to refine Juyuan Dan, and with the cooperation of many apprentices, we can produce Juyuan Dan of good quality!"

The head of Haotian said happily: "That's really a great thing, as long as the Alchemy Association is willing to provide pills, the price is easy to say!"

It can be seen that the head of Haotian has prepared a lot of funds for this batch of Juyuan Dan, and this is also a plan to compete with other sects.

Xuan Mai smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Although the head of the sect is a master in the cultivation world, he doesn't know enough about alchemy. Although Juyuan Dan is a first-grade pill, the complexity of Chengdan is far from being comparable to other first-grade pills.

It is not realistic to provide pills in large quantities, and the production chain of Juyuandan is long and the fault tolerance rate is extremely low, and the final product rate is only about two or three percent.

That is to say, if you want to provide a Juyuan Pill, you have to go through almost fifty processes, and one hundred pieces is five thousand times! This kind of manpower consumption is very terrifying, the Alchemy Association can only produce a hundred pieces at most a month, and most of them have been booked by the Dragon Tiger Gate in Longyuan City.

You also know about Dragon Tiger Gate, we cooperate with them, and there are many things that I can't disclose as a second-grade alchemist......"

Seeing Xuanmai's embarrassment, Haotian knew that most of this matter was yellow, and it seemed that Juyuandan's matter was about to come to naught......

The Dragon Tiger Sect is a sect that has only slowly risen in the past hundred years, and it was a vassal force of the Heaven and Earth Gate thirty years ago.

But in just five years, several geniuses appeared, and then these geniuses quickly replaced the older generation and began to lead the rise of fresh blood, so that Longhumen developed rapidly.

Until today, the Dragon Tiger Gate has become a central force within a radius of hundreds of miles, stabilizing the Heaven and Earth Gate, which should not be underestimated!

The main reason is actually because the Dragon Tiger Gate let a large number of disciples go up the mountain to cultivate more than thirty years ago, and as a result, they accidentally discovered a cave heaven blessed land, and later they occupied this cave heaven blessed land, and they were able to mine a large number of medicinal materials and minerals and spars every year, laying a firm foundation for the development of the Dragon Tiger Gate.

Therefore, Longhumen also has a very good relationship with the Alchemy Association of Longyuan City, providing medicinal materials on one side and pills on the other, and making progress with each other, which is the most ideal mutually beneficial and win-win situation.

Dai Chunqiu, the president of the Alchemy Association, has a very good relationship with Xia Dong, the head of Longhumen, and it is said that the two are brothers, so every year the Alchemy Association will provide various elixirs to Longhumen.

For a long time, the new force of the Dragon Tiger Gate has become stronger and stronger, and it has easily surpassed the Heaven and Earth Gate and become a major hegemon in Longyuan City!

The head of Haotian has been fighting for so long, just to get acquainted with a veteran of the Alchemy Association, Haotian has great hopes for Xuanmai, but he didn't expect this kind of result.

The head of Haotian smiled bitterly, "Isn't there any other way?" The pills of the Heaven and Earth Gate have been stagnant for thirty years, and if they are not renewed in my generation, they will be stagnant for another fifty years. How can the speed of the renewal of the cultivation world be beyond the imagination of ordinary people?

Master Xuanmai, the stakes are very high, this seat would like to solemnly request again, can the Alchemy Association even out a little Juyuan Dan? Even if the quality is worse, it doesn't matter, I will collect it at twice the price of Longhumen. ”

Xuanmai spread out his hand and said helplessly: "I really have no choice, my authority as a second-grade alchemist is very low, unless the president speaks." ”

Dai Chunqiu, the president of the Alchemy Association, is a fourth-grade alchemist, and the shelf is bigger than the sky, it is said that it is more difficult to invite him than to move a mountain, and it is no fun to find him!

Haotian looked disappointed, but quickly recovered, and waved his hand: "It's okay, this matter can be discussed slowly, and there is no hurry." Master Xuanmai is my honored guest of Heaven and Earth Gate, let this seat do the best for the landlord today!"

The table of the eight immortals of the spar was lifted up, and all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas were put on the table, accompanied by fine wines and wines, and the singing and dancing were pleasing to the eye.

Qin Ming drooled from the sidelines, since he came here, he had never eaten such a sumptuous food.

Heaven and Earth Gate has not improved in terms of alchemy, but the logistics and cooks are the top in Longyuan City, and when the time comes, you can have a taste.

At the beginning of the banquet, He Xie, as an elder of law enforcement, naturally had to attend the banquet.

He tied Qin Ming behind the screen behind the hall, and sneered: "You dumb person just stay here honestly! You can die, except for the Heavenly King Lao Tzu, no one can save you!"

Qin Ming was too lazy to argue with this pedantic old guy, although he was behind the screen, he could see the situation outside clearly from the gap.

The specifications of the banquet are very grand, and some people believe that they are the bigwigs who are receiving the royal capital.

From this point of view, Tiandimen attaches great importance to alchemists, and even Haotian has put down the shelf of the head of the house, frequently raised his glass, and praised Xuanmai.

Li Kong stepped aside to laugh and pour wine, and finally found an opportunity to speak while everyone was eating.

He raised his glass and cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Master Xuan, you are really the dragon and phoenix among people, and the Dan Dao is the most holy, so that we and other martial artists can see hope and see the future!

Compared with you, where is the alchemy in our Tiandimen, it is clearly rubbing mud balls. Through the details of Master's cooking, I seem to see your alchemy, and you are naturally magnificent......"

He was like a river, talking endlessly, and Xuanmai was stunned for a while, is this still talking about himself?

On the other side, the face of the head of Haotian couldn't hold back, so he had to interrupt Li Kong's words and cough lightly: "Elder Li Kong, everyone is so enthusiastic, you might as well drink a little more wine." Everyone already knows the great deeds of Elder Xuanmai, so you don't have to repeat them. ”

After speaking, he also secretly thought in his heart: "This Elder Li Kong only wants to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, and it is better to seek the well-being of the disciples in the sect if he has a mind! If the elders in the sect are like this, how can the Heaven and Earth Gate develop?"

After three rounds of drinking, Master Xuanmai was already slightly drunk, and said with a slightly red face: "Master Haotian, do you know how I was promoted to a second-grade alchemist?"

Speaking of this topic, the head of Haotian was interested, and said with a smile: "Oh, this is very interesting, please talk about Master Xuanmai." ”

Xuanmai raised his glass and said: "It's not a secret, some time ago I met a strange young man, this young man is very magical, he came to the stage to refine the first stage of the elixir, refining three in a row, all successful!"

Young people whose alchemy success rate can reach 100% have never been seen in my more than 40 years of Xuanmai alchemy!"

Haotian was also amazed: "100% success rate, that is, alchemy will never fail?" is really a strange young man, but I don't know where this person is now, if it is possible to enter the Heaven and Earth Gate." ”

Xuan Mai nodded and said: "That's true, the background of this kind of talented genius is only very large, and he usually won't join any mountain gate casually."

However, I heard that some time ago, the head of the Heaven and Earth Gate used his secretary to see a corner of the future with prophecy, and among the disciples recruited this time, there is a person who is the hope of the future of the Heaven and Earth Gate. ”

Haotian closed his eyes and nodded slightly, this is a well-known thing, there is no need to say too much.

But as soon as the Holy Son was mentioned, Li Kong came to his senses, and stepped forward again: "The Holy Son Tianzong Wizard, when he was participating in the recruitment of disciples in the Wind Valley, he casually caused an earth-shattering hurricane, Master Xuanmai, do you say this is a genius of the world?"

"That's true. Xuanmai smiled and said: "The Holy Son has such a majestic style, he must be able to lead the Heaven and Earth Gate to overcome many difficulties and regain the glory of the past." ”

However, Haotian smiled slightly, and said: "What the head of the Taishang Sect predicts is not the rise of the Heaven and Earth Gate, the Holy Son still needs to hurry up and cultivate in a hurry, he will still be of great use in the future."

If only we could find the strange young man that Master Xuanmai said, I really want to see him, even if it is just to see him refining a pill, I will be satisfied. ”

There are almost no alchemists who can guarantee that their alchemy will not fail 100%, even high-level alchemists can't do it if they refine a grade of pills, if this strange boy can do it, his efficiency can be described as very terrifying!

The Alchemy Association had to pay fifty times the original process consumption just to refine a Juyuan Dan, and on the other hand, that young man could directly refine it at one time, which was equivalent to saving ninety percent of the material consumption and time!

Xuanmai shook his head with a wry smile and said: "There is a vast sea of people, and finding someone in it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, how can it be so easy?"

And at this moment, a voice came from behind the screen.
