Chapter 103
In the morning, Qin Di met Cao Yankai again and said he wanted to apply for an apprenticeship for alchemy.
Cao Yankai picked up a bamboo tube from the table, with three bamboo sticks placed inside, and said, "Today there are eighteen elementary alchemists who have opened furnaces to refine alchemy, three of whom have not found a suitable assistant. You can draw a lottery from it. As long as you pass their test, you can become an alchemy apprentice."
Qin Dixin said, "This method is unique, but in this way, the artificial factors will be great. If you draw a nitpicking guy, it will be hard to say. I hope my luck will not be so bad."
He reached out and drew a lottery, turned over and saw that the words "Wan Yunbai" were written on it. He couldn't help but frown slightly, feeling that the name was a little familiar, and seemed to have heard it from somewhere, but he just couldn't remember it for a moment.
Then, Cao Yankai took him to an independent alchemy house and ordered: "You wait here first, and the Wandanshi will come. As long as he says yes, you will pass the assessment; if he says no, then you will have no chance!"
Qin Di found a round stool in the corner of the wall and sat down. He took out a gold alchemy jade slip from the storage belt that he had obtained from the cave in the corner of the gun, and put it on his forehead and read it slowly.
After reading for a while, he was a little shocked: I really don’t know, I’m shocked! Wang Guinong, nicknamed “Hundred Grass Pill King”, is indeed amazing. The jade slips left behind are much higher than the alchemy method of the Jindan Sect! The two are incomparable. If they really want to compare, it would be like the difference between a sheep and an elephant. Not to mention advanced alchemy techniques, even the teaching of junior disciples has ten times more information. Take the pharmacopoeia that records the materials of spiritual herbs. The Jindan Sect only has more than ten thick books. If the jade slips left by the Dan King become paper books, there are at least 150 books!
It is not a day to put all these materials into your mind. What's more, the Dan King left behind not only the pharmacopoeia, but also a variety of alchemy techniques, fire control minutes, and wind blowing experience, which are extremely comprehensive. If you finish all of them, you won't know how long it will take.
Qin Di was not in a hurry. Anyway, the days of practicing immortality are very long, so reading books when you have time is good, and it is also good to pass the time.
He was a researcher in his previous life. He wasted his time in college until he was thirty years old and had seen a vast sea of information. Although there were more than these thousands of jade slips, they were still much less than the literature they read online when they were really studying.
Qin Di sat quietly in the elixir room and read ten jade slips in one breath. He saw a young man walking in arrogantly. He was about the early twenties, like a little rooster, with his chest raised his head and looked up at the crowd. He was wearing a blue disciple's uniform, and the three words "Wan Yunbai" was written on the nameplate on his chest.
"Huh? Why are you?" When he saw Qin Di, the young man was stunned.
Qin Di took a closer look and hey, he actually knew this person!
"You are Wan Yunbai? Wan Zhenren's nephew in his later life? I didn't expect you to be promoted to the alchemist! I'm glad to congratulate you, congratulations!"
The surprise in Wan Yunbai's eyes was only a moment. When he heard the word "Panshen", he immediately showed a proud look and asked in a sharp voice: "Qin Yundi, aren't you an inner disciple? What are you doing here again?"
Qin Di smiled slightly: "I'll take the test of the alchemy apprentice! That's why I came here to trouble you."
Wan Yunbai snorted: "You also want to learn alchemy? It's so strange. Are you a wood spirit root and have the talent for alchemy?"
Qin Di laughed and said, "I'll come over and take a look. As for whether I have talent, I don't know whether I have talent, so I need to have an assessment."
Wan Yunbai's face showed a look of contempt: "Your skill is higher than mine. Logically, I should call you Senior Brother Qin, but Senior Brother Qin, you should practice your wood-based martial arts honestly. It would be great if you can reach the advanced foundation-building level in your life. Why did you suddenly have a whim and want to refine alchemy?"
Qin Di smiled and said, "Junior Brother Wan, I am here to take the alchemy apprenticeship exam. It has nothing to do with building foundations or not, can it be formed? Even if you are yourself, you are still in the middle stage of Qi Refining, right? But you are already a junior alchemist. Can you not participate in the alchemy apprentice assessment if you have low skills? I didn't expect that the sect has such rules!"
Wan Yunbai's face changed and he said loudly: "Qin Yundi! Don't think that you can laugh at me if you have high skills! I'm just half a step behind for a while, and in a few years, I will definitely leave you behind! Humph, why are you still taking the alchemy apprentice? Even if you become an alchemy master? If you can't get a golden elixir, you can live at most 500 years old! What's the use of learning alchemy?"
Qin Di heard him speak more and more distorted, and thought to himself: "It's so unlucky! If you have such an examiner, the exam may be aborted."
But he said, "Junior Brother Wan, according to what you said, do we have to practice half of the foundation-building cultivators in this sect? Since it is difficult to form a golden elixir, it is better to die long ago! Look at the alchemist in the Immortal Fire Valley. Apart from Wan Zhenren, the highest level is just foundation-building. Are you afraid that they will hear this? "
Wan Yunbai glared at him: "I'm talking about you alone! Qin Yundi, hurry up and practice martial arts, don't waste time here!"
"I'm here to test the alchemy apprenticeship. Junior Brother Wan is not going to give me a chance?"
Wan Yunbai was very impatient: "What opportunity should I give you? I am a Danshi, I have the final say here! You have finished the test and failed! Humph, what can you do to me? This is the Immortal Fire Valley. Can you kill me with one punch?"
Qin Di looked at the other party quietly: "Junior Brother Wan, aren't you afraid that I will bring Wan Zhenren and ask him to give me an assessment?"
"Hahahaha! Qin Yundi, you are too arrogant! Don't say that I am too uncle in seclusion, even if I haven't, I will not summon you! Who are you? You are too overestimated!"
Qin Dixin said: "If I take out a few pieces of the Dan King's jade slip, let alone let Zhenren Wan test it for me, even if I let him burn the fire and be an alchemy boy for a few days, he might be willing!"
Seeing that the more he talked, there was no room for relief, and he was too lazy to argue with the other party.
"Junior Brother Wan, one day you will regret your behavior today."
"Haha, it's so funny. Are you just practicing in the Qi Refining Stage a little faster? After building the foundation, you will be out of the way! What else can I regret?"
Before he finished speaking, Qin Di had already walked out of the Danfang: "The lack of a son is enough and theories! I didn't expect that Wan Zhenren would have a junior like you!"
Wan Yunbai chased to the door and shouted: "Qin Yundi, if you beg, I might let you pass! Please beg me now!"
Qin Di shook his head slightly, walked straight to the management office, and said to Cao Yankai: "Mr. Cao, Wandanshi is a little unhappy with me and is unwilling to give me a test. Can you help me change another alchemist?"
Cao Yankai glanced at him and said, "This is not possible. You have drawn the lottery and have already gone through the process. According to the rules of the sect, if you fail to test it once, you will not be able to test this year. If you want to test it again, you must come back next year!"
Qin Di frowned: "You can't be able to adapt? Is there no precedent for this kind of thing?"
"I can't be able to adapt! Even if the leader comes, it's useless! Unless the fire meridians and the person in charge of the alchemy room opens his mouth!"
"Where can I find Wan Zhenren?"
"Zhen Ren Wan is refining a furnace of Yuanying pills, and has not been out of seclusion for eight months! You can't find him!"
Qin Dixin said, "It's really unlucky today! I didn't look at the almanac when I went out, but I actually met a villain!"
Cao Yankai looked at him with his eyes squinting and shook his head, "Who are you young man who can you offend? You just offend the Fandanshi! Don't you know? The Fandanshi is the most favored by Wan Zhenren and is known as the "Young General Manager" in Xianhuo Valley! Since you offend him, things will be difficult! Even if you come back next year, you may not be able to pass the test!"
Qin Di felt a little angry and said lightly: "Is the test that important? Even if I can't pass the test, I can still become the master of alchemy!"
"The alchemy master? Haha, do you know what the alchemy master is? You really don't know how to be so arrogant! You dare to speak wildly at a young age! A person like you, who is arrogant and rude and arrogant, deserves to be unable to pass the test!"
Qin Di curled his lips: "Old sir, if you can live another 60 years, you will be able to see that day!"
"What did you say? Which day did you see?"
"The day I became the Grandmaster of Alchemy!"
"A Jiazi has become a master of alchemy? You are dreaming in the daytime! I'm delusional! Oh my god!"
