However, looking around, none of the other disciples were refining medicinal pills. Wu Huaqing’s figure flashed and disappeared from the peak. He saw the fleeting divine light and the phantom image of the Immortal Crane disappearing into the layers of mountains.
Clouds and mist surrounded the verdant mountains. For a moment, it was hard to tell which mountain it had landed on.
Recalling the smell just now, it was the medicinal fragrance of a successfully refined medicinal pill. Could this divine phenomenon be caused by someone refining a medicinal pill?
Just what kind of medicinal pill had been refined to cause such a phenomenon? Wu Huaqing was extremely shocked.
He believed that in the entire sect, in terms of the level of pill refinement, the Qingyun Peak was the highest. He was recognized as the best alchemist in the clan. However, now, who exactly was refining this medicinal pill?
Wu Huaqing could not figure it out no matter how much he thought. Perhaps all of this was just a coincidence.
Just as he was thinking, a disciple rushed over with a shocked expression and said, “Master, quickly go back and take a look at the pills!”
When he rushed back, everyone was gathered, and the place was packed to the brim. When they saw Wu Huaqing’s arrival, they hurriedly made way for him. They all had expressions of shock and disbelief.
When he saw the scene in front of him clearly, he finally understood why everyone had such expressions. Even he felt some shock.
The disciple had failed to refine the pills because of a mistake in the medicinal ingredients just now. However, looking at it now, the failed pills had turned into good medicinal pills, and there was even a layer of black ash around them.
If Wu Huaqing remembered correctly, it was a bunch of useless pills. How did it turn out like this?
“What the hell is going on?!”
“Master, it’s like this. I wanted to throw away this batch of pills and start the refinement again. I didn’t expect that it would change as soon as you left...”
The disciples were all talking at once. Wu Huaqing had also figured out the whole story.
According to what they said, they did not know what was going on either. The black ash on the useless pills suddenly peeled off like a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon. It also seemed that the pitch-black shell was just an illusion, revealing the true appearance hidden inside.
“It’s really strange. It’s obviously a failed pill, but how did it suddenly become like this? It seems that the medicinal properties of the conflict inside were erased.”
“Exactly. When I saw it, I thought I was hallucinating. Even in 100 years, this is rarely seen. It can be said to be a miracle.”
The disciple from before picked up the pill delightedly. “Maybe I didn’t fail to refine it in the first place. Instead, I accidentally succeeded. The black ash outer shell I saw just now was just an illusion. It’s only temporary.”
Although Wu Huaqing felt that it was unlikely, he still said, “Well then, replicate your refinement procedure just now and refine it again.”
As expected, it was almost as he had guessed. No matter how that disciple refined it, it would always be a cauldron of black waste pills.
Seeing this situation, Wu Huaqing already had some guesses in his heart.
However, when the other disciples looked into their cauldrons, the quality of all the pills was better than expected. It did not seem like their capabilities at all. The pills simply exceeded their standard and were completely different from before.
All the disciples thought that they had improved, but when they tried to concoct the pills again, they were beaten back to their original state.
This scene confirmed Wu Huaqing’s thoughts. There was a meaningful look in his eyes as he said, “It seems that our sect has actually produced an expert in alchemy.”
Wu Huaqing’s disciples were somewhat puzzled. “Other than our peak, who else can refine pills? Could it be the Sect Leader?”
Shen Tianyi was strong, but he was not good enough to refine such a pill. Wu Huaqing remembered that there were a few elders who were quite good at refining pills. Could it be them?
It could not be one of the disciples who refined it, right?
Wu Huaqing was eager to find out who it was. He believed that everything that had happened just now was not an accident. Someone had created an extremely high-quality pill!
Unfortunately, he had left too late, and the pill cloud was fleeting. He was not able to see anything. However, when Wu Huaqing visited the elders of the various peaks, he received a unanimous answer.
They had not refined any pills at all. Some people even thought that Wu Huaqing was joking. They had asked around the sect, but no one knew.
On the other side, Gu Xi still did not know that Wu Huaqing had asked almost the entire sect trying to find him.
Fortunately, he had set up a formation around Mount Sanqing. Otherwise, such a big commotion would have attracted the attention of the entire sect.
However, even so, the Flawless quality medicinal pill was too heaven-defying, and he could not stop some medicinal Qi from leaking outside the formation. Therefore, the people near Mount Sanqing might have noticed it.
Little Nine pounced on the pill like a hungry tiger. However, Gu Xi caught it in mid-air.
“You can’t. You can’t eat this.”
After all, Gu Xi did not even know what kind of medicinal pill this was refined. He had used various medicinal herbs that had conflicting medicinal properties. Even if the pill’s quality was extremely high, he did not want Little Nine to become a guinea pig.
Little Nine waved its claws in the air, squeaking non-stop as if it was protesting. Its grape-sized eyes were filled with desire, and Gu Xi could not help but laugh when he saw it.
“Be good, I’ll refine something even more powerful for you next time. This doesn’t suit you.”
With Gu Xi’s guarantee, Little Nine finally quieted down.
Dong–
Suddenly, a melodious bell sound came from afar. Gu Xi suddenly raised his head. Only the Sect Leader, Shen Tianyi, could ring this bell and summon the entire sect.
The Sect Leader rang the bell. Could it be that something big had happened to the sect?
