C315 The Whereabouts of the Alien Flame
Ding Hao looked at Yan Zhen with a gaze full of sarcasm. He shook his head helplessly and said, "To think that you are still a peak fifth grade alchemist. You don't even know the principle behind the Qi Explosion Pill. A Sixth Grade Alchemist who doesn't even know the pharmacology of a Sixth Grade Pill still wants to take the alchemist examination. Isn't that just asking for humiliation? "
"Kid, don't speak nonsense. Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because Elder Gu is here." Yan Zhen's words were filled with a threatening tone as he berated loudly.
Ding Hao's eyes sparkled. He ignored Yan Zhen and only sneered.
Yan Zhen was incomparably angry at Ding Hao's attitude. He was already in a bad mood after failing the sixth grade alchemist examination. He didn't expect this young man to comment on the reason behind his failure. Didn't this mean that his skill in alchemy wasn't even as good as that of a young man?
At this moment, Elder Gu raised his hand to stop Yan Zhen. His eyes were filled with respect as he looked at Ding Hao. He said indifferently, "Yan Zhen, what this little brother said is right. I have always had doubts in my heart when refining the Explosive Qi Pill. Why did the success rate of refining the Explosive Qi Pill increase when the Genuine Qi was in a riot? If the refining method was used in an ordinary manner, it would produce the opposite effect if the refining process was done in an orderly manner. It was only after hearing what he said today that I was able to resolve the confusion in my heart. "
" What!? Old Gu, could it be that you're joking? What this kid said is actually true?" Yan Zhen's expression changed drastically as he exclaimed.
Elder Gu nodded his head and said thoughtfully, "The Explosive Qi Pill formula was originally found by the senior of Alchemy Workshop in an ancient land. This pill formula was left behind by the ancient devil sect. Therefore, it's inevitable that the refining method is different from ordinary pills. You don't have to argue about it. Let's put this matter aside for now. After this failure, you can wait for the examination two years ago. When the time comes, you will definitely succeed in one go. I wish you good luck. "
The corner of Yan Zhen's mouth twitched slightly, and a solemn expression appeared on his face. When he heard Elder Gu speak, he could not argue anymore, so he could only reply, "Understood, Elder Gu."
Yan Zhen glared fiercely at Ding Hao, and there was a trace of hatred in his eyes. Today, not only did he fail to advance in the alchemy test, but he was also taught by a young man in front of so many people. In the future, his reputation would be greatly reduced. He would have to settle this score sooner or later.
A cold expression emerged on Ding Hao's face, but he didn't put Yan Zhen's grudge in his heart. Even the eldest brother of Apocalyptic Plane, Ouyang Tianqi, hated him for obstructing his plan. So what if he was a mere Fifth Grade alchemist? It wasn't worth mentioning at all.
The principle behind this Explosive Qi Pill was naturally not something Ding Hao could see through. Instead, it was when Yan Zhen was refining the Explosive Qi Pill and condensing it. The system only automatically assessed the level of danger when it detected the surrounding threats. The Ying Bao informed Ding Hao of the principles behind the Explosive Qi Pill condensing. Only then did Ding Hao blurt it out.
"Little brother, may I come in and have a chat?" A kind smile appeared on Elder Gu's face as he spoke to Ding Hao.
"This junior is terrified by Elder Gu's generous invitation. It is my greatest honor to be able to communicate with Senior Great Alchemist." Ding Hao bowed and replied.
After saying that, Ding Hao followed Elder Gu to the inner courtyard of Alchemy Workshop. Shen Yue and Huang Feihong were arranged by Elder Gu's disciple to receive them, while Yan Zhen was ignored by Elder Gu. He was left alone on the spot, not knowing what to do.
Yan Zhen looked at Ding Hao's back, full of unwillingness. In his heart, he hated Ding Hao for not telling him the theory behind the Explosive Qi Pill in advance. This would not cause him to fail in concocting the pill. He thought to himself, He must want to see me make a fool of myself. He wants me to make a fool of myself. I, Yan Zhen, have never suffered such a huge loss in so many years. Since you don't want me to live well... Don't even think about it!"
While Yan Zhen was thinking about how to deal with Ding Hao, although the surrounding people felt sorry for Yan Zhen's failure in advancing, they couldn't afford to be careless when facing a Fifth Grade alchemist.
Some of the elders and family heads of the major families in Eagle City walked up to Yan Zhen and offered him an olive branch, hoping to recruit him into their family. However, Yan Zhen's cold eyes swept across these people and replied coldly, "Get lost! I'm not in the mood."
After saying that, Yan Zhen left the Alchemy Workshop's entrance without looking back, leaving the embarrassed crowd behind.
"Tsk, I thought that Master Yan Zhen was a magnanimous alchemist. I didn't expect that I would be ridiculed by a kid after failing the examination. How dare you vent your anger on us? What a joke! No wonder he hasn't broken through to the level of a tier 6 alchemist in such a long time. There's a reason for this. " An elder said indignantly.
"Yan Zhen's Dao Heart has been broken. If he wants to break through the barrier in his heart... Unless he can get rid of this young man, he will never be able to step into the threshold of the Sixth Grade Alchemist for the rest of his life. This young man is in trouble." A clan leader of a large clan had a meaningful look in his eyes as he muttered.
"Yan Zhen of the Second Cycle of Great Yin versus the Xiantian realm young man. The result of this battle has already been determined before it even began. However, I hope that Yan Zhen will suffer a little more. All these years, everything has been smooth sailing for him. This has caused him to be so arrogant that he never put us in his eyes. " Another supreme elder of a big family said in a deep voice.
...
For a moment, the powerful and influential people outside the Alchemy Workshop were discussing the conflict between Yan Zhen and the young man who had entered the Alchemy Workshop. The rest of the spectators were just watching the show and didn't think that the matter was too big. They also started to discuss. This news quickly spread to the Eagle City.
Beside a stone table in the inner courtyard of the Alchemy Workshop, Elder Gu and Ding Hao were sitting on a stone bench. The two of them were drinking tea and chatting.
"You want to know the whereabouts of the Alien Flame?" Elder Gu put down the teacup in his hand. His eyes revealed a surprised look as he exclaimed.
"Elder Gu, to be honest, I want to know the whereabouts of the Alien Flame because I have important relatives that need to be saved, so I have no choice but to look for the Alien Flame." Ding Hao said in a deep voice.
Elder Gu's expression began to change, and he slowly said, "The world has just opened, and flames have been born in the world. It is rumored that the ancient Great God has planted 108 types of Alien Flame in the world. This is the reason why humans have a single spark of Heavenly Flame, and the Heavenly Flame is one of a kind. Those who possessed deviant flames were all incomparably powerful cultivators, and the might of the deviant flames was enormous. Moreover, it is incomparably mysterious. It is extremely difficult to obtain the 'Heavenly Flame'. "
"Elder Gu, please tell me a thing or two. Junior will definitely shed tears of gratitude." Ding Hao's face revealed an excited expression as he spoke.
Elder Gu stared at Ding Hao and saw the determination in his eyes. He said, "I once received a piece of news. There is a Heavenly Flame in the Greenwood Sect above the Three Kingdoms. However, the authenticity of the news is unknown. If you really want to find a Heavenly Flame... Then you can try your luck in the Greenwood Sect. "
Ding Hao's eyes lit up. He said gratefully, "Thank you, Elder Gu."
"It's not a big deal. I see that you have a certain understanding of pills. As for your cultivation talent, it is also considered top grade. I wonder if you are willing to learn alchemy skills from me. This will also help you in entering the Greenwood Sect. " Old Gu murmured.
"Learn the art of alchemy?" A strange expression appeared on Ding Hao's face as he asked doubtfully.
