Martial Dao Great Emperor

Ou Houliang's eyes flashed. If he hadn't known that the black-robed boy in front of him was the peerless genius who had broken through the seventh floor of the Flying Dragon Tower, he would never have believed that a fifteen-year-old boy could refine a fourth-grade elixir.

However, he was still a little skeptical.

"Young Shura boy, it seems you don't have an alchemist badge yet." Ou Houliang said with narrowed eyes.

The alchemist badge is a symbol of status and credibility, representing the certification of the alchemist guild. Only alchemists with the badge can others trust you to help you make alchemy.

Originally, Luo Xiu planned to wait until he had time to get an alchemist badge, but taking this opportunity, it would be good to get one in advance.

"Can the alchemist assessment be conducted here?" Luo Xiu asked with a smile.

"Of course, little friend, come with me. It just so happens that my disciple is also preparing to take the third-level alchemy master examination." Ou Houliang said immediately.

Hearing this, Luo Xiu glanced at the purple-clothed woman in surprise. With her innate cultivation, she could become a third-level alchemist at around the age of twenty. Such talent in alchemy is rare.

However, there are also many third-level alchemists. The most difficult thing is to break through from the third level to the fourth level.

After a while, Luo Xiu followed Ou Houliang to a secret alchemy room inside the Alchemist Guild.

The secret room was quite spacious, and there were already four young people waiting inside. When Ou Houliang came in, they all bowed and saluted.

Only then did Luo Xiu realize that these people were here to take the alchemist assessment, and Ou Houliang was in charge of the assessment.

He also brought the woman in purple for the assessment, and happened to see Luo Xiu in the guild hall.

Ordinary alchemist assessments naturally do not require Ou Houliang's personal appearance, but these young people are all extraordinary. They are all alchemy geniuses trained by various forces in the Ancient Sword State. They are already second-level alchemists at a young age. Once they pass the assessment, , you can become a third-level alchemist.

As long as you can become a fourth-level alchemist in your lifetime, your status will rise, and you can enjoy the treatment of a Martial King-level powerhouse within your family sect!

"Little friend, show me your skills first?" Ou Houliang said to Luo Xiu with a smile. He actually couldn't believe that Luo Xiu could really refine a fourth-grade elixir, so he thought of letting him try to refine a third-grade elixir first.

"Okay." Luo Xiu shrugged indifferently, naturally knowing that Ou Houliang did not believe in his own level.

There are six alchemy furnaces in this alchemy room, all of which are of the highest human level. Counting Luo Xiu, they are just enough.

The assessment of a third-level alchemist is to refine a third-level elixir called Qi Recovery Pill. The effect of this Qi Recovery Pill is to allow the innate martial artist to quickly recover the lost Qi, which can last longer in battles. There is great demand from the outside world.

"Okay, let's get started." Ou Houliang sat down in a seat and glanced at everyone.

In an instant, everyone started to move, opened the lid of the alchemy furnace, condensed their true energy into fire, and started the process of warming the furnace.

Ou Houliang's consciousness also spread, paying attention to the actions of every alchemist. Once someone has a problem in alchemy and may explode the furnace, he will immediately take action to stop and resolve it.

Condensing fire with true energy is only the most common method. Only a few special techniques can cultivate special flames.

As for the flame spirit bred by heaven and earth, it is even more scarce than practicing special fire-based skills.

While Luo Xiu was warming up the furnace, he also paid attention to the movements of several other people. He discovered that the flames condensed by the true energy of Ou Houliang's disciple, the woman in purple, showed a faint purple color, obviously because of the special technique she practiced. .

This slightly lavender flame has a higher temperature and stronger firepower, and can extract the impurities contained in the elixir more cleanly.

Ou Houliang's eyes were always paying attention to Luo Xiu's movements. When he saw that what Luo Xiu condensed was a kind of white flame, his old eyes couldn't help but flash.

"What a rich breath of life..."

Ou Houliang looked at the Xuanyang white flame condensed by Luo Xiu with some surprise. Not only did this flame have a higher temperature and improve the efficiency of extracting impurities in the elixir, but it also contained life force that could warm the elixir and improve its efficacy!

"It's not the innate fire spirit bred by heaven and earth, it should be the special technique he cultivates." The expression on Ou Houliang's face gradually became solemn.

He somewhat believed that this Luo Xiu might really be able to refine fourth-grade elixirs.

But this guy is only fifteen years old! It is terrifying enough to have reached the realm of god refining, but he is also a fourth-level alchemy master. How can this make many other geniuses in Tianwu feel embarrassed?

At the same time, Ou Houliang was a little curious about where Luo Xiu learned alchemy. After all, the way of alchemy is different from martial arts. It does not mean that you can practice it by yourself with the skills and martial arts. Instead, it requires a lot of knowledge and the hands-on work of a master. Just guidance.

However, as far as he knew, Luo Xiu had been unknown before the age of fourteen and rose to prominence in just over a year. There were many doubts about this.

Luo Xiu didn't know that Ou Houliang thought of it a lot, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

With his own high level of cultivation, coupled with the special nature of Xuanyang White Flame, the process of warming the furnace was quickly completed, and he casually put the elixir for refining the Yuan Dan into the elixir furnace.

Ou Houliang's disciple, the woman in purple, had also been paying attention to Luo Xiu's movements. She was very proud of her alchemy talent, but seeing the black-robed boy's skillful movements and his superb fire control techniques, she suddenly understood what her master was. Why would the old man be so polite to this young man?

The refining of the Qi-Returning Pill was completely stress-free for Luo Xiu. It took less than half a quarter of an hour to complete the refining of the Qi-Returning Pill.

Raising his hand and clapping, the furnace lid flew up, and eight pills with an earthy yellow halo flew out, and Luo Xiu put them all into the jade bottle.

"My little friend really opened my eyes!"

Seeing that Luo Xiu had finished refining the elixir, Ou Houliang stood up, looked at Luo Xiu meaningfully and said.

At this time, other people participating in the assessment couldn't help but look curiously, and then they noticed that the young man in black robe who was taking the assessment with him had already completed the refining.

And these people have just completed the steps of warming the furnace, and the elixir has not yet had time to put into the alchemy furnace.

This must be fake, even a fourth-level alchemy master would not be able to refine the Qi Restoration Pill so quickly.

However, Master Ou Hou's tone and expression did not seem to be fake at all. Besides, Master Ou Hou had an excellent reputation, and it was impossible for others to cheat in this kind of alchemy test.

"My friend, can you let me see the elixir you made?" Ou Houliang said.

"Okay." Luo Xiu handed over the slightly warm jade bottle.

Ou Houliang reached out and took it, and poured out an elixir impatiently, wanting to see the quality of the elixir refined by Luo Xiu.

"This is... the top ninety percent elixir?"

The expression on Ou Houliang's face was instantly stunned. He had been refining alchemy for more than 300 years, but he had never refined a third-grade elixir with 90%. As for a fourth-grade elixir, he could only refine a 70% elixir at most.

"My little friend is truly a peerless talent, I admire you."

Ou Houliang took a deep breath, feeling really shocked.

At the very least, he asked himself that he was not as good as Luo Xiu, and he already believed that Luo Xiu really had the ability to refine fourth-grade elixirs.

"Master Ou Hou is ridiculous." Luo Xiu smiled modestly. If he wasn't worried about shocking the world, he could completely refine the pure elixir.

Not long after, a badge of a fourth-level alchemy master was delivered to Luo Xiu through Ou Houliang.

"Little friend, if my prediction is correct, you should be only fifteen years old this year, right?" Ou Houliang asked meaningfully when handing the fourth-level badge to Luo Xiu.

Luo Xiu nodded noncommittally and did not deny it.

As an alchemist, you have some privileges in the Alchemist Guild. For example, some high-level elixirs that are difficult to buy on the market can be purchased or exchanged through the Alchemist Guild's channels.

"I wonder which senior did my little friend learn alchemy from?" Ou Houliang asked again.

In his opinion, even the only sixth-level alchemy master from the Tianwu Kingdom royal family would never be able to teach such a disciple.

Moreover, the Tianwu Kingdom's royal family is also recruiting Luo Xiu, so naturally he cannot be the descendant of that royal family.

Ou Houliang felt that the master who taught Luo Xiu must be a great person, possibly a seventh-level alchemy master, or even higher!

"Master has been hiding from the world for many years, and I don't allow my name to be mentioned below." Luo Xiu said.

There is a mysterious master of unknown origin behind him, and this is also the smoke bomb Luo Xiu is preparing to release through the Alchemist Guild.

In this way, even though some people still suspect that he gained some good fortune when he was fourteen years old, the existence of a mysterious master will make some people with evil intentions dare not act rashly.

The Array Master Badge is the same as the Hunter Badge in that it records personal information.

A fifteen-year-old fourth-level alchemy master!

It was impossible to hide this news, and Luo Xiu himself planned to hide it. From the moment he got the badge from the Alchemist Guild of Shanyuan City, his information appeared in the records of the Alchemist Guild.

Ou Houliang asked himself that his level of alchemy was not as good as this fifteen-year-old boy. This was simply unbelievable.

"My little friend collected the elixir of the Yuan Refining Pill, presumably to improve his cultivation level, right?"

In a quiet room, Luo Xiu and Ou Houliang sat opposite each other.

"Master Ou Hou is right. I wonder if Master has any connections?" Luo Xiu took a sip of tea and asked with a smile.

He is now considered to be a member of the Alchemist Guild. Although he is not an internal member of the Alchemist Guild, with his status as a fourth-level alchemist master, he can still borrow some of the guild's channels and rights.

Ou Houliang smiled and nodded, "If you want to buy elixirs, our Shanyuan City Guild has some stocks. I wonder what your success rate is in refining fourth-grade elixirs?"

There are also differences between alchemists of the same level, and this difference lies in the success rate of alchemy and the quality of the elixir.

The higher the success rate of an alchemist, the better the quality of the elixirs produced, which will naturally attract more martial arts cultivators to come to you to refine elixirs, from which the alchemist can collect rewards and earn more resources.

"The success rate of fourth-grade elixirs is about 70%, and the quality of the elixirs can be guaranteed to be more than 80%." Luo Xiu said with a smile.

"Seventy percent success rate, eighty percent pill?"

Ou Houliang was startled when he heard this, and he really didn't know what he felt in his heart.

He is also a fourth-level alchemy master, but the success rate of refining fourth-level elixirs is only 60%, and the quality of the elixirs can be guaranteed to be above 70%.

"What a terrifying guy." Ou Houliang's throat couldn't help but roll slightly. The fifteen-year-old fourth-level alchemy master had a higher level than himself. At least in the history of Tianwu Kingdom, he was unprecedented.

"If Master Shura needs to refine Yuan Dan, I have a suggestion."

Unknowingly, Ou Houliang no longer addressed Luo Xiu as 'little friend' but with the honorific title of 'master'.

Calling him a friend means that the other person is at the same level as himself, and using the honorific title of master means that Ou Houliang places his status behind Luo Xiu!
