Chapter 40: The Youngest Alchemist
Chapter 40: The Youngest Alchemist
"This bad guy, it's finally started!" Zi Xuan patted her chest and opened her mouth to mutter, obviously still a little worried about Zhang Yu.
"Girl Xuan, you seem to be quite nervous about that young man, there won't be any inside story that we don't know!" At this moment, Lin Cong next to Zixuan suddenly smiled and asked with some ill will.
"Grandpa Lin, where do you want to go, we are just friends, seeing that you are old and disrespectful, I will ignore you in the future!" Seeing this, Zixuan pursed her lips and complained to Lin Cong dissatisfied.
Shaking his head helplessly, Lin Cong continued: "Okay, okay, grandpa is wrong, isn't it okay! Let's see how Zhang Xiaozi performs." ”
As the two of them quieted, the whispering in the hall also stopped, but this time, most of the eyes stayed on the confident young man in front of the stone platform, and many people wanted to know if this young man, who was obviously valued by Elder Lin, could have a wonderful performance.
Looking at Zhang Yu, who was skillful, although Zixuan didn't know how to make alchemy, her intuition told her that Zhang Yu was still very powerful, so she asked Lin Cong next to her in a low voice.
"Grandpa Lin, the nerd seems to be very powerful!"
"Well, this kid is indeed not simple, looking at his fire control skills and smelting medicinal materials, he may not even be able to compare with your sister. At such a young age, it is really a little scary to have such strength!" Lin Cong also responded to Zixuan in a low voice.
"Ah, no, he's even more powerful than my sister, haven't you always praised my sister as the best alchemy genius you've seen in a hundred years?" Zi Xuan said with some surprise.
"I did say that, but don't forget, there are heavens outside the sky, there are people outside the people, and we may not be able to imagine how evil they are with many geniuses on the mainland, and it is also very possible that Zhang Yu can surpass your sister. Now it seems that I used to sit in the well and watch the sky, and suddenly, I really want to visit Zhang Yu's mysterious teacher. ”
"Then do you think the nerd can pass the alchemist assessment?" Zi Xuan asked again.
"It's hard to say for the time being, after all, alchemy not only requires skilled fire control techniques, but also sensitive soul perception, all kinds of collocations of elixir and grasp of fire, every step here is very important, even I don't dare to say that every alchemy does not make mistakes, so, if you want to know the result, let's wait and see!" Lin Cong calmed down and said with some expectation.
At this time, Zhang Yu had already started alchemy with full attention, so he didn't know anything about the conversation in the hall. His eyes swept over the elixirs placed on the stone platform, and Zhang Yu picked up the elixirs one by one smoothly, threw them into the Dan furnace in an orderly manner, and carefully smelted them.
Although full of confidence, Zhang Yu still maintained his usual caution and took every step of refining seriously.
Under Zhang Yu's seemingly gentle refining, in the Dan furnace, the prototype of the Great Pill had begun to slowly form.
At this time, at the other end of the stone platform, Ziwei listened to the surrounding discussions, and turned her head to Zhang Yu unnaturally. When they first met, she only regarded Zhang Yu as a passerby, and later she was already a little curious about Zhang Yu, and now she has risen to the point of paying attention to it.
Looking at Zhang Yu's calm demeanor and skillful movements, even if she was arrogant, she couldn't help but have some admiration. Without paying attention, I only heard the sound of "bang", and the almost smelted elixir in the Dan furnace turned into charred powder in an instant.
Without paying too much attention to this failure, Ziwei hurriedly tightened her mind, brushed the green silk in front of her forehead, and took out a pair of elixirs again and began refining.
At this time, Zhang Yu did not have the slightest nervousness on his face, everything was under control, and the temperament of the cloud and the wind was light, and everyone present couldn't help but sigh secretly. If you don't look at Zhang Yu's slightly immature face, it will make people wonder if a master who has been engaged in alchemy for decades is standing here.
This kind of calm attitude makes most people can't help but have a feeling of "I'm not as good as I", and some people can clearly see the bitter smile and frustration in their eyes.
"This kid is quite hidden. Glancing at Zhang Yu again, Lin Cong said helplessly.
"I knew that nerds were still very powerful!" Zixuan saw Zhang Yu's performance, and hurriedly spoke, with an expression that I had long been discerning, as if I was the protagonist of today's assessment.
In Zhang Yu's contemplation, time flew by, and the pills in the Dan furnace had already begun the final condensation process. Zhang Yu's majestic soul power burst out of his body while thinking, accurately controlling the formation of the elixir.
Zhang Yu, who had already impressed everyone, once again startled everyone present, no wonder the whole process was not in a hurry, it turned out that he had such outstanding soul power, I am afraid that it would be not much better than the second-grade alchemist, everyone had no comparison in their hearts, and they were silently looking forward to Zhang Yu's Cheng Dan.
Looking at the round and lustrous elixir in the Dan furnace, Zhang Yu smiled lightly, the spiritual power in his hand gradually withdrawn, and the crimson flame gradually dissipated.
Quickly took out a jade bottle, Zhang Yu quickly raised his hand, and the successfully refined pill was accurately collected in the jade bottle.
Slowly raising his head, Zhang Yu saw that Ziwei's refining had also been completed, and a quarter of an hour later, a pill was also successfully refined. But what made him strange was that the eyes of everyone around him seemed to be watching him, which made him feel unnatural in his heart.
"It's not that the master is too handsome and fascinates everyone!" Zhang Yu thought silently in his heart.
"Well, Master Lin, please check my results as well. In order to break the silence around him, Zhang Yu hurriedly spoke.
Slowly taking the jade bottle handed by Zhang Yu, Lin Congruo glanced at him meaningfully, and said with a smile, "Boy, it's hidden and doesn't leak!"
Zhang Yu lowered his head and did not speak.
Lin Cong didn't check Zhang Yu's elixir, but took the jade bottle of Ziwei first and observed it carefully.
"Well, it's not bad, it's not in vain for the teacher's hard work. Sixty percent of the medicinal effect of the binding elixir, you have passed this assessment. ”
Hearing this, Ziwei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone present also began to congratulate Lin Cong, "Master Lin really taught a good apprentice, amazing, amazing." ”
Without paying much attention to everyone's praise, Lin Cong looked at Zhang Yu and asked, "Zhang Gongzi, what kind of pill are you refining this time?"
"What the kid has refined is a strong pill. Zhang Yu replied respectfully.
"Oh, you two are about the same difficulty, now let me see how well you refine. Hearing this, the eyes in the hall slowly stopped on the jade bottle in Lin Cong's hand.
Ziwei on the side was also curious, she also wanted to know what was going on with the elixir refined by this young man who had repeatedly refreshed her opinion.
Lin Cong slowly poured out the pill in the jade bottle, and the pill was round, and the patterns were densely covered on it, exuding bursts of tempting fragrance.
"Jiucheng Dan!" Lin Cong couldn't help but exclaim after careful observation.
Listening to Lin Cong's exclamation, everyone's faces couldn't help but be stunned, and even Ziwei stared at the young man in front of her stupidly. Although Zhang Yu's passing of the assessment was expected by everyone, refining a ninety percent medicinal pill was really stunned.
Jiucheng Dan, except for Lin Cong, I am afraid that no one present dares to say that they can successfully refine it, although it is only a pill. I really didn't expect that a boy who was only about seventeen years old could be so demonic, wouldn't that mean that Zhang Yu suddenly became the first seventeen-year-old person in the entire Sunset City for countless years?
"You guy, you really want to scare people to death, I seem to be able to see a shining Venus rising in the near future. Lin Cong looked at Zhang Yu with a calm face and said with a wry smile.
"Master Lin, you have praised it falsely, Zhang Yu was really lucky to be able to refine the Ninety Cheng Dan. Listening to Lin Cong's praise, Zhang Yu said modestly.
"Don't be modest, even if you don't refine the Ninety Cheng Pill, just by your age, you are the youngest alchemist in a hundred years, you know, the last recorded seventeen-year-old alchemist was still left by the current president of the Sunset City Alchemist Guild, I really look forward to the day when you surpass that old guy!" Lin Cong said with emotion.
"Okay, now that you have passed the assessment, then you are now a first-grade alchemist, this is your alchemist identity certificate, this thing is universal in the entire continent, made of special materials, no one dares to imitate it. Pack your things and come out with me."
