Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 239 Joining the Alchemy Palace
After entrusting Lin Qianxing and others to the disciple named Gao, Fan Tingyan and others left.
The disciple surnamed Gao brought Lin Qianxing and the others to a room. After re-examining and confirming their spiritual roots in front of an elder in charge of registration, he began to ask about the main peak they wanted to go to. He also briefly introduced the characteristics of the twelve main peaks.
He spoke hurriedly and without details, even worse than Fan Tingyan's previous introduction.
It was at this moment that Lin Qianxing began to understand why Fan Tingyan had such good connections within the Yunhua Sect.
It was obvious that many of the disciples who joined had once been under his care.
The other five people quickly decided to end it and took over the corresponding disciple badges from the disciple surnamed Gao. Except for the disciple with four attributes who got the outer disciple badge, the rest of them were menial disciples' badges.
After doing all this, the disciple surnamed Gao handed over the Ascension Order and asked the elder in charge of registration for an inner disciple badge. He looked at Lin Qianxing and asked, "Brother, which peak do you want to go to?"
When Lin Qianxing heard the voice, he had something in mind.
"Brother, please choose a Stargazing Peak for me." Lin Qianxing said.
"That's clever." The disciple surnamed Gao smiled and nodded, saying, "Your spiritual roots are relatively weak. If you were in another main peak, you would definitely be ostracized. Although Guanxing Peak is deserted, it is the most suitable for you."
As he spoke, he also started writing information on Lin Qianxing's badge.
Soon, Lin Qianxing got his own badge.
"Okay, you guys go report. Go out from here and turn left. There is an underground flying boat in the square that can take you where you want to go. If you don't know how to use it, just tell the disciple on duty where you want to go." The disciple named Gao said.
"Thank you for your help, Senior Brother Gao." Lin Qianxing said politely.
The other five people followed suit and performed the ceremony.
Then they walked out of the room together and started walking towards the square.
The disciples holding the menial badges huddled together, pushing Lin Qianxing and the outer disciple with four attributes to the side, and were unwilling to communicate with them.
The outer disciple with the four attributes had no choice but to get closer to Lin Qianxing.
"Senior brother, my name is Jiang Chi. This time I chose Shenjian Peak. I wonder which peak you chose?" Jiang Chi asked.
"You don't have to call me senior brother. I am just blessed by my ancestors. My name is Lin Kong, and I chose Guanxing Peak." Lin Qianxing said.
"Stargazing Peak?" Jiang Chi looked a little strange when he heard the voice.
Guanxing Peak is slightly special among the twelve main peaks.
The other main peaks have at least several thousand disciples, and Yunhua Peak, the leader of the main peaks, has over ten thousand disciples.
This does not even mention the disciples living in the secondary peaks.
But the Stargazing Peak is a little special. The total number of elders, true disciples, core disciples, inner sect disciples, outer sect disciples, and menial disciples on the main peak is only eight or nine hundred.
As for the deputy peak?
The secondary peak of Guanxing Peak is also the smallest among the other main peaks.
There are only ten temples, and the total number of disciples is only a few thousand.
You know, the entire Yunhua Sect covers an area of 3,600 miles and has 457 secondary peaks.
The power of Guanxing Peak is simply unworthy of the name of the main peak.
However, the key to judging whether a peak is the main peak is not its power, but mainly its master.
Li Ziyan, the master of Guanxing Peak, is a true master of cultivation. As long as he is still alive, Guanxing Peak will remain the main peak.
Lin Qianxing and Jiang Chi exchanged a few words, and soon they both arrived at the square that the disciple surnamed Gao mentioned.
The square is huge, and there are thousands of metal flying boats docked in it.
From time to time, someone would stand on it and insert the waist badge to directly start the flying boat. The formation would activate the earth veins and push it into the sky. Then the flying boat would spread its glider in the air and glide towards a certain area.
After Lin Qianxing and Jiang Chi bowed and said goodbye, he followed suit and walked to one of the Earth Vein Flying Boats and inserted his badge. He then chose Stargazing Peak from the more than one hundred mountain names on the boat's control platform. Then he tied a safety rope around himself and pulled the lever hard to start the Earth Vein Flying Boat.
Boom~!
Under the guidance of the formation, the energy of the earth veins suddenly lifted the flying boat up and shot it in a certain direction.
After reaching the highest point, the sounds of mechanisms were heard from both sides of the flying boat, and two glider wings like wing membranes stretched out, with sparkles of light on them, allowing the underground flying boat that Lin Qianxing was riding to fly towards the distant Stargazing Peak.
During the entire process, the Earth Vein Flying Boat appeared to be extremely stable. Lin Qianxing felt that even without using the protective rope he would not be thrown out.
Although this thing is simple and violent, it has obviously stood the test of time.
Although it does not have the ability to fly autonomously, its cost is obviously not expensive. It relies directly on the ground jets to glide to the destination, saving energy.
The maintenance cost also seems to be very low, and the operation is simple, which greatly facilitates the travel of grassroots disciples.
About a quarter of an hour later, Lin Qianxing was sent to the Flying Boat Square on the Stargazing Peak.
Compared to the thousands of flying boats in the Flying Boat Square of Yunhua Peak, there are only less than a hundred flying boats here, and many of them have not been used for a long time and are covered with thick dust.
Lin Qianxing untied the protective rope, pulled out his badge from the flying boat, and looked at the buildings, seeming a little confused.
He is now like a college student who has just entered university and cannot find his major area. He doesn't know where to go.
"Hello, are you new here?" Suddenly, a voice came from beside Lin Qianxing.
Lin Qianxing turned his head and saw a young man in purple clothes .
"My name is Lin Kong, nice to meet you, senior brother. I have indeed just arrived. I wonder where I should report?" Lin Qianxing asked politely.
"Let me see the badge?" asked the young man in purple.
Upon hearing the voice, Lin Qianxing quickly handed over the badge with both hands.
The purple-shirted young man took it and took a look at it, then said with a half-smile, "Oh, you're related? Acquired pseudo spiritual roots with dual attributes of fire and earth, tsk tsk tsk, never mind, come with me, I'm also an inner sect disciple, I'll take you to report to the inner sect elders."
As he spoke, he casually handed the badge back to Lin Qianxing, and then walked straight forward.
Lin Qianxing quickly put away his badge and followed.
"Excuse me, what is your name, senior brother?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"Guan Qian." Guan Qian said without turning his head.
"Thank you very much, Brother Guan, for showing the way. Otherwise, I really don't know where to report. If I have the ability in the future, I will definitely repay you." Lin Qianxing said with gratitude.
"Don't try this on me. I won't buy it. You're just a fake spiritual root, so just try to stay here first." Guan Qian said bluntly.
Lin Qianxing understood what was going on. It seemed that even on the Stargazing Peak there was some conflict.
It may not be easy for him to get along with this crappy spiritual root.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Qianxing communicated with Guan Qian for a while and obtained some information indirectly.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the two arrived at the Deacon Hall at the inner gate of Stargazing Peak.
The elder of the inner sect was named Diao Xun, a middle-aged man who looked slightly plump.
After he took Lin Qianxing's badge, he frowned slightly and asked Lin Qianxing, "You have some cultivation skills, right?"
"My disciple is at the initial stage of the Naqi Realm and is about to break through to the middle stage of the Naqi Realm." Lin Qianxing replied.
"Although you have little talent, you are diligent." Diao Xun nodded, and then asked: "Do you have any martial arts skills? Do you have enough strength?"
"I know some boxing and kicking, and one arm can have the force of a thousand pounds." Lin Qianxing said.
"You have good physical strength." Diao Xun nodded again, and then asked: "Have you learned to make pills, talismans, and weapons?"
"I have learned some pharmacology under the guidance of my elders at home, and I can refine basic elixirs such as the Bigu Pill." Lin Qianxing said.
"A long family background of learning. Not bad, not bad." Upon hearing this, Diao Xun showed an obviously satisfied expression.
Guan Qian was also a little surprised that Lin Qianxing was brought to the Deacon Hall.
He didn't expect that Lin Qianxing looked so young and had such poor spiritual roots, but he didn't expect him to be so stubborn.
His cultivation level is not bad compared to the cultivators of the same age with five acquired spiritual roots. He also practices martial arts and understands the basics of alchemy.
"Since you understand pharmacology, why don't you stay in the Alchemy Hall on the main peak and be an alchemy boy? Do you have any objection?" Diao Xun asked.
Hearing this, a strange look appeared in Guan Qian's eyes, and he even felt a little envious.
Lin Qianxing didn't quite understand why, so he replied, "Disciple has no objection."
"In that case, this is your possession. Take it to the elder of the Dan Palace and he will make arrangements for you." Diao Xun said as he handed Lin Qianxing a metal plate with the word "Dan" written on it.
"Thank you, Elder." Lin Qianxing said politely.
"Go ahead!" Diao Xun waved his hand.
"Junior Brother Lin, you have just arrived and may not know the way. Let me take you there." Guan Qian said.
Before Lin Qianxing could open his mouth, Guan Qian spoke first.
The completely different attitudes before and after made Lin Qianxing realize that there must be some factors that influenced Guan Qian and made him more important in his heart.
Cultivation? Martial arts?
No, it’s Dandao!
Yes, compared to combat professions, logistical professions engaged in scientific research are often the scarcest and most worthy of respect.
Even though Lin Qianxing only has a basic understanding of pharmacology, he is still young and it is definitely worth investing in him.
"Then I would like to thank Brother Guan very much." Lin Qianxing said politely.
"Junior Brother Lin, there is no need to thank me. It is only natural for us fellow disciples to help each other." Guan Qian said.
"Brother, that's right." Lin Qianxing also responded.
As they talked, they walked out of the inner gate deacon hall and went forward until they came to a hall where the temperature was obviously a few degrees higher.
The name of Dan Temple is hung above the hall.
"Junior brother, I'll take you here. You can go in and report in yourself." Guan Qian said.
"Senior Brother Guan, if I want to find you later, where should I go?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"I am not a disciple of the main peak. I live and practice in Qingshi Peak. If you want to find me, you can go to the inner gate of Qingshi Peak and ask." Guan Qian said.
"I understand." Lin Qianxing nodded.
"Junior Brother Lin, I'll take my leave now." Guan Qian said politely.
"Goodbye." Lin Qianxing also returned the greeting.
Immediately, Guan Qian turned and left, and Lin Qianxing also stepped into the Dan Palace.
Inside the alchemy hall, alchemy furnaces were neatly arranged, with burning ground fires restrained by formations underneath. There were shelves on both sides with some minerals and medicinal materials on them.
There were dozens of disciples refining pills in it, and they were accompanied by one or two alchemy boys as assistants, helping to fan the fire , pass medicinal materials, and hold the pills.
Among them, Lin Qianxing found the elder of the Dan Palace, Lu Daocheng, an old man in white. After the other party saw his possession, he arranged him to be a Dan child for a core disciple named Li Yunxi.
Li Yunxi was wearing the standard purple robe of Guanxing Peak, which had the logo of Dan Temple and the logo of core disciples on it. He looked to be about thirty years old, so it was hard to guess his real age.
After Lin Qianxing came to him, he didn't hesitate to ask directly, "Do you know any medicinal herbs?"
"I once helped my elders at home to refine pills, so I know a little about it." Lin Qianxing said.
"Go to the elixir area behind me and get me three qian of Nine-Leaf Purple, two qian of Green Grass, one Jade Bodhi, and one tael of Black Gold Grass." Li Yunxi said.
"Okay." Lin Qianxing nodded.
Immediately, he found the corresponding medicinal materials in the pill material area and packed them separately in medicine boxes specially used for pill materials to avoid mixing their medicinal properties.
After Li Yunxi took the medicine box, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Not bad, stay here and study hard. Although your spiritual roots are slightly weaker, if you master the alchemy skills well, you may be able to make up for the shortcomings in your spiritual roots in the future."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Li, for your advice." Lin Qianxing said politely.
