Chapter 7: The Sage of the West

The alchemists of the other peak veins came quickly, and within a few minutes of Zhang Shen sensing their presence, several figures appeared at the door, tall, short, fat, thin, men, women, and children, and several people completely blocked the door, and not even a single mosquito could get in.

Although it is said that when the rotating peak vein alchemist invites a newcomer, other peak veins cannot be maliciously snatched, but I am standing here, without saying a word, you can't say how I am.

Fei Luzi's eyes jumped, as if he didn't see it. After all, that's what he did at the beginning......

Zhang Shen glanced over and found that although these people were expressionless as if they were playing sculptures, in fact, the moment his gaze swept over, they all released a wisp of goodwill spiritual fluctuations.

"Under the Flying Immortal Peak vein from the Twelve Days of Kunlun, our vein ......" Fei Luzi scolded these guys as fast as a wild dog smelling the fragrance of meat, and introduced the Flying Immortal Peak where he was located as quickly as possible.

Tongtian Peak, Yuxu Peak, Feixian Peak, Kunwu Peak, Liguang Peak, White Lotus Peak, Lianqiao Peak, Yunlu Peak, Weixia Peak, Luge Peak, Jingqi Peak, Fenghui Peak, this is the mountain where Kunlun is located for 12 days.

Although it is said that it is divided into twelve peak veins, in fact, there is no particularly serious internal dispute between alchemists, at most, it is just because the concept is not moving, and it is not pleasing to each other, and it only stays at the level of language, and there has been no bloody battle yet.

Zhang Shen has already had a certain understanding of Kunlun, the holy land of alchemists, through various books on the market, and at this moment, he listened to Feiluzi for a while, and he has further knowledge of the situation in Kunlun for twelve days.

"The ......"

As soon as Zhang Shenfu spoke, a pair of eyes suddenly swept over in unison.

Their gaze did not contain malice, but the spiritual coercion brought by the powerful soul still existed, if Zhang Shen was really a delicate and frail son, he was afraid that he would faint at this time.

"I think you've all misunderstood something."

"I never said that I want to worship Kunlun and learn alchemy."

Eh??!!

Including Qian Long, everyone was dumbfounded.

"Y-What did you say, can you say it again?" Fei Luzi's face was a little wrong, and he said in a deep voice.

In order to allow the apprentices to go further on the road of the Dan Dao, any slightly famous alchemist will not accept more than three disciples, so as not to be able to teach them well and mislead people's children.

Because of this, among alchemists, the relationship between master and apprentice is very important, and even more than father-son affection in many cases.

Zhang Shen didn't explain much, squatted down, picked up a piece of hard object casually, carved and scratched on the ground, lines appeared, as Zhang Shen's mind moved, in a blink of an eye, a simple pattern appeared in front of everyone.

The outermost part is an impeccable circle of standard, followed by an equilateral hexagon, and further inside is a very random triangle. On the three patterns, several chaotic lines are intertwined into a strange symbol.

Qian Long stretched his neck and peeked at it, it was obviously a very simple pattern, but for no reason there was an illusion of dizziness and even suffocation.

looked at Fei Luzi and the others again, and after only one glance, they all changed color, as if they were facing a great enemy.

After a moment's scrutiny, cold sweat began to slide down their foreheads.

Fei Luzi took out a magic weapon that was somewhat similar to a compass from his arms, and while chanting words in his mouth, he used his hand to play on the compass, and his hand speed was extremely fast, and he could see faint finger remnants. Looking at the way he looks, it seems that he is calculating something.

Alchemy, which uses reaction as a medium; Alchemy is calculation, and the compass of Fei Luzi's finger is similar to a magic weapon for calculation, but it is more advanced.

Fei Luzi's behavior gave everyone a revelation, and for a while, the hall on the first floor, which was not very spacious, was filled with a "buzzing" sound, which made people irritable.

The behavior of everyone, Zhang Shen was noncommittal.

That seemingly strange symbol is that he has integrated his knowledge of alchemy, and has condensed all his understanding of "earth" into such a simple symbol as much as he can.

This is a whimsical attempt, and this symbol that has just emerged in the world cannot show all the knowledge related to "earth" that Zhang Shen has learned, or even half of it.

However, it was such a whim-out symbol, but it made several alchemists present calculate for most of the day, and they still couldn't crack it!

After a long time, Fei Luzi put down the calculator in his hand, wiped the cold sweat on his face, and chose to give up.

At this time, he realized that his clothes were almost wet with cold sweat, and he could almost wring out water!

The other alchemists also chose to give up one after another, looking at each other, a little depressed.

"Senior, can you show us the meaning of this symbol?" Fei Luzi took a deep breath, stepped forward, bowed, and said in a sincere tone.

In the world of alchemists, those who pay attention to attainment are teachers, and other ages and generations are all floating clouds. In fact, the lifespan of a top alchemist has long surpassed that of ordinary people, breaking through the limits of human life, and being able to live for hundreds of years.

Feeling the mood fluctuations emanating from Fei Luzi and the others, Zhang Shen's expression moved, and a sense of joy that had finally found the organization arose. For Zhang Shen, fighting and killing is not what he wants, and this kind of pure scholar who wholeheartedly delves into his own chosen path is what he yearns for. It's a pity that the world is not up to people, and now, he has no choice.

Zhang Shen exhaled lightly, suppressed the chaotic emotions, slowly squatted down, put his palms on the refining array, and whispered:

Forge into a formation and start!!

The long silver current burst out, like a thousand dragons going out to sea, with an astonishing momentum and a big surprise.

The electric light came and went quickly, and then dispersed into the ground and disappeared, leaving no trace.

A stone pillar rises slowly from the ground.

Qian Long was stunned by this scene, but Fei Luzi and the others couldn't help but feel a trace of disappointment in their hearts. Especially looking at Zhang Shen's serious face, he felt that it was too far from expectations.

At this moment, change quietly happened!

The original yellow-brown mud stone pillars change rapidly, and they change differently, full of layering.

Granite, peridotite, basalt...... Shale, limestone...... Marble, slate, gneiss......

Fei Luzi was stunned!

He actually saw dozens of common rocks from the stone pillar in front of him, which was no more than one person high!

Turning mud into stone, many alchemists will. However, Fei Luzi deeply understands that Zhang Zhanlu's hand is far more difficult than directly converting soil into rock!

It requires not only a good knowledge of the structure of the various rocks, but also a considerable degree of requirements for the soul realm of oneself.

The soul is not strong enough to incorporate so many rock structures into such a small volume of stone pillars in a short period of time, and it is necessary to ensure that there is no conflict between them.

Except for Qian Long, the people present are all young alchemists who have made certain achievements on the road of Dan Dao, and they usually have arrogance in their hearts, and no one obeys anyone, until this moment, they deeply understand the truth that there are people outside the sky.

"Thank you seniors for your advice." Everyone thanked them together, and Zhang Shen accepted it calmly.

"Looking at the technique of the predecessors, it should be the alchemy of the Western country," someone noticed the difference between Zhang Shen's refining and alchemy, and recognized the source, and asked, "Could it be that the predecessor has just returned from the Western country." ”

The railroad between the two countries has been abandoned for some time, and in fact, even when the railroad was in good working order, the thinking of the Qing people dictated that they were rarely interested in the Western countries, which were thousands of miles away.

"That's right." Zhang Shen nodded, thought for a while, and added, "I grew up in Amestolis, and I came back this time to learn about alchemy. In order to reduce the trouble of identity, Zhang Shen simply came to die without proof.

In the Qing Kingdom, the fifty surnames are intertwined, and the blood and clans are like a magnificent net, enveloping the entire Qing Kingdom. Zhang Shen resisted the appearance of the Qing people, and at the same time, the surname Zhang was also one of the fifty surnames, in order to prevent trouble in the identity in the future, he simply "severed" any relationship in the Qing State.

Zhang Shen believes that in this way, even if someone wants to "recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors" for himself, there is nowhere to start for the rats and turtles.

After chatting for a few more words, suddenly, Fei Luzi remembered something, stepped back a few steps one after another, and his expression changed drastically: "Could it be that Senior Zhang, you want to emulate the 'Sage of the West'??! ”

Fei Luzi's words reminded others of everything about the "Sage of the West", and for a while, the expressions that looked at Zhang Shen were a little complicated and strange.

"Eh, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Shen didn't know what to do, full of doubts.

"The Sage of the West? What is that? Is there a youkai sage next door to Seikyoji Temple? ”

Seeing that Zhang Shen's expression did not seem to be fake, Fei Luzi and the others were even more surprised.

"Senior, you don't even know the sage of the West?!"

"Why, do I have to know?" Fei Luzi and the others looked at the aliens with expressions, which made Zhang Shen a little unhappy.

"Hehe, of course not...... I just think some, what, weird......"

Zhang Shen asked about the "Sage of the West".

The so-called "Sage of the West" is a man named von Hohenheim, a master alchemist, from Amestolius, who crossed the desert hundreds of years ago to the Qing Kingdom and challenged the alchemists of the Qing Kingdom at that time with his powerful alchemy skills.

At that time, there was no official Kunlun Twelve Days, and the alchemists were relatively scattered, each doing their own thing.

After von Hohenheim came to the Qing Kingdom to roughly understand the situation of the Qing Kingdom at that time, he chose to "meet friends with literature" and challenged all the alchemists who were a little famous at that time.

What makes all the alchemists still ashamed to this day is that the original Danshi world was actually swept by von Hohenheim alone, and no one was his opponent!

It wasn't until Hohenheim entered the Kunlun Mountains at that time that he alarmed the great sage who was living in seclusion.
