Chapter 85 Test Passed
Yan Guo, the testing room on the second floor of Baicao Pavilion headquarters.
Elder Ling looked at Lin Yixuan's method of refining the elixir with a strange look in his eyes.
(How strange! This is the first time I’ve seen someone make pills this way, and the order doesn’t match the recipe at all.)
Lin Yixuan took out the Wuli Grass from the ring, and began to condense it, and then added it to the alchemy furnace.
Elder Ling's eyes fixed, and he immediately frowned.
(That shape is Wu Li grass, that’s right. I tried adding Wu Li grass when I was researching the pill formula before. Although the success rate was improved, the effect of the pill was greatly reduced. This young man is not going to do anything to pass the test!)
As the last step was completed, Lin Yixuan let out a long sigh.
(Although I can refine high-level elixirs of the mysterious grade, this is the first time I have refined the Barrier Breaking Pill. The recipe is obviously not perfect yet. If a special pill like this cannot achieve the balance of yin and yang, it will easily explode!)
"My friend, what I requested is a high-level Xuan-grade elixir. You added the Mist-leaving Grass, which greatly reduced the effect of the elixir. I'm afraid this Barrier Breaking Pill can only reach the level of a medium-level elixir at best..."
Before Mr. Ling finished his words, the pill came out of the oven, and a medicinal fragrance filled the entire stone chamber.
(How is this possible?)
"Mr. Ling, what did you just say?"
Lin Yixuan took out a box with the pills in it, and flew to Elder Ling, asking in confusion.
Elder Ling took the newly-made Barrier Breaking Pill and examined it carefully, his eyes filled with shock.
(This is indeed a high-level Xuan-grade elixir, and the quality of this elixir is better than the ones I made myself.)
Ling Laogan coughed and said.
"It's okay. I mean, my friend, this pill is of good quality. I wonder if you added the fog grass just now?"
Lin Yixuan nodded and said.
"Yes, it is Wuli Grass. I also modified the ratio of the herbs to make the pill more effective! How is it? I think it is qualified, right?"
"Yes~ I passed, I passed!"
Old Ling looked at the Barrier Breaking Pill in front of him with satisfaction in his eyes.
"Master~~"
Xiaoqing gently pulled on Mr. Ling's sleeve and said.
Elder Ling reacted, put the Barrier Breaking Pill back into the box, then reluctantly flew towards Lin Yixuan and asked.
"I wonder if you could tell me the recipe for the revised Barrier Breaking Pill?"
"This is simple."
After Lin Yixuan finished speaking, he took out a brush, made some changes on the paper, and then controlled the brush to fly towards Elder Ling.
Elder Ling looked at the revised recipe of the Barrier Breaking Pill and nodded with satisfaction.
(So that’s how it is! This young man is pretty good!)
"Since you are so forthright, how about I give you a 20% discount on the herbs you want?"
Mr. Ling said.
"Thank you, Mr. Ling."
Lin Yixuan quickly thanked him.
(Is there such a good thing?)
"Hmm~ After the discount, the price is about 8 medium-grade spirit stones."
Elder Ling put away the recipe and stroked his beard while speaking.
Hearing the price, Lin Yixuan's eyes were filled with shock.
(I didn’t expect that the herbs I wanted were so expensive, and they were 20% off!)
Lin Yixuan said with some embarrassment: "Well, I didn't expect the price to be so high. Can I use other materials to make up for it?"
"Oh? What material? Let me see?"
Elder Ling asked curiously.
Lin Yixuan took out a whole fire dragon skin from the ring and placed it on the ground.
"This is?"
Elder Ling came to Lin Yixuan in an instant and carefully looked at the complete fire dragon skin.
Lin Yixuan was stunned for a moment.
(I didn’t expect that this Elder Ling was actually in the Nascent Soul stage, or maybe even higher.)
Elder Ling reacted and said.
"I'm sorry, I didn't scare you, I was just too excited. This is a fire dragon skin, which is very rare, and this one is so complete. Tsk tsk~"
"I'll give you 30 mid-grade spirit stones for this fire dragon skin. Would you mind giving it to me?"
Elder Ling said after observing carefully.
(Is this Fire Dragon Skin so expensive? Forget it. These auxiliary medicines are so expensive. The price of the main medicine will probably go through the roof. Just sell it!)
"Okay, I'll give this fire dragon skin to Elder Ling."
Lin Yixuan said.
"My friend is really straightforward!"
Elder Ling took out another space ring from the ring, threw it to Lin Yixuan and said.
"There are 300,000 middle-grade spirit stones in this ring. The ring is not big and is not worth much money, so I'll give it to you. I'll waive the price of the medicinal herbs. Just consider it as me making friends with you."
After Elder Ling finished speaking, he turned to Xiaoqing and said, "Xiaoqing, go and prepare something for this young friend."
(Young people with such great potential should be made friends with, and they are so straightforward!)
"Yes!"
After Xiaoqing agreed, she went to prepare.
"Oh, by the way! I still don't know your name, little friend, and who your master is."
Elder Ling asked.
Lin Yixuan took the ring, checked it, found no problem, and then said.
"My name is Lin Yixuan, and I don't have a master."
"You don't have a master? Did you learn all the alchemy skills by yourself?"
Elder Ling asked in surprise.
"Someone has taught me some tips on alchemy, so I guess I can consider him half my teacher!"
Lin Yixuan explained.
"Then are you willing to become an elder of Baicao Pavilion?"
Mr. Ling asked.
(He has achieved such success just by his experience in alchemy. What more can he do in the future? Such talents must be recruited!)
"I'll think about it before talking."
Lin Yixuan said.
"Things like this require careful consideration. If you have considered it, just come to me directly."
After saying this, Mr. Ling took out a token, carved something on it, and then threw it to Lin Yixuan, saying.
"This is the identity token of a high-level Xuan-grade alchemist. From now on, you can get a 10% discount on anything you buy at Baicao Pavilion or use the alchemy room."
"Thank you, Mr. Ling."
Lin Yixuan took the token and thanked him.
(It would be a great thing if this person could share his experience in alchemy. The exchange meeting the day after tomorrow would be an opportunity!)
"My friend, you are now a high-level Xuan-grade alchemist, so you don't have to be so polite! Oh, and there will be an alchemist exchange meeting the day after tomorrow evening. If you are interested, you can come and participate."
Mr. Ling said with a smile on his face.
(Exchange meeting? I remember it was recorded in the secret history that the exchange meeting is a meeting for alchemists to exchange their experiences in alchemy. It is possible to see other people’s understanding of alchemy and see if there is anything worth learning from, but…………)
Lin Yixuan was in a state of hesitation.
"If you are interested, you can come to me, because the exchange meeting brings together alchemists from all over the world. Many of them will take out rare medicinal materials that they can't use for barter."
Mr. Ling explained.
(Cherish medicinal materials? Is there any bartering? If so, I can go and have a look!)
"I can go to the exchange meeting, but how will it be arranged then?"
Lin Yixuan asked.
"Young friend, just come find me when the time comes."
Elder Ling stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction.
Not long after, Xiaoqing walked up to Lin Yixuan with a bag and handed it to him, saying.
"The herbs you want are all in here, please take a look."
Lin Yixuan took the bag and checked it. (It was indeed what he needed!)
Then he put it away and bowed to the two of them.
"Since the herbs have been obtained, I will take my leave now."
After Lin Yixuan finished speaking, he turned and left.
Elder Ling said to Xiaoqing.
"Xiao Qing, go see Master Lin off, and remember to get along better with him!"
“Ah! Oh~”
Xiaoqing was a little surprised, and said "Oh" reluctantly, then hurriedly followed Lin Yixuan.
Xiaoqing kept her head down and followed closely behind.
(Have a better relationship with him? How should I deal with this?)
(That, by the way, should be something they can help with.)
Lin Yixuan suddenly stopped and turned around, and Xiaoqing fell directly into Lin Yixuan's arms. Lin Yixuan hurriedly hugged Xiaoqing's waist to prevent her from falling.
Realizing that she had lost her composure, Xiaoqing quickly stood up and apologized.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! I was just thinking about something and got distracted."
Xiaoqing explained
(This person...)
"It's okay, I need your help with something."
After saying this, Lin Yixuan moved closer to Xiaoqing.
"What is it, Master Lin, please tell me!"
Xiaoqing's heart was pounding and her face was flushed.
(I don’t know what this guy wants to do.)
"Please bring a message to Elder Wan Tianming of Tianya Academy..."
Lin Yixuan leaned close to Xiaoqing's ear and whispered something.
Hearing that it was just a message, Xiaoqing finally felt relieved and replied.
"Okay, no problem. I'll definitely help you get the message."
Lin Yixuan stood up again, nodded, then remembered something and said solemnly.
"Oh, remember to say that it was an old friend who brought him the news. Remember to tell him the news in person."
