Chapter 107: Taking the tier 4 alchemy test
“Hmm! Okay, let’s go. Boy, if you can’t pass the test, then I will blacklist your name from taking future tests. ” Elder Wang said and walked out of the room.
Inside the tier 4 testing room, currently, four candidates were concocting a tier 4 pill each. One of them was a girl. Joey was also among them. The other two were middle-aged men.
Four tier-5 alchemies were supervising the exam.
“Suyin is doing well so far. She is indeed the genius of our Yueliang city. ” One of the supervisors spoke.
“Yes, she is indeed the granddaughter of our alchemy chief, Hu Zixin. She is just 18 years old but already taking the test of Tier-4 Alchemy.” Another supervisor said.
Then, he happened to see Joey concocting his tier-4 pill.
“Who brought this boy here?” He shouted.
“I bring him here. Do you have a problem? ” Elder Wang entered the room. The red robe man also followed behind him.
“Elder Wang! Please forgive me for my arrogance.” He pleaded.
“Alright, you can leave. I will supervise this test in your place.” Elder Wang ordered.
Then the man left the room quickly.
Elder Wang looked at the four examinees.
He thought in his mind, ” Oh, It is Suyin. Good. The chief must be proud of her.”
Then he looked in Joey’s direction.
“What is that boy doing? Putting all the herbs inside the cauldron without refining. Is taking this test a joke? ” He murmured and continued observing his every movement.
Joey chanted a mantra in Sanskrit. Then suddenly, an azure color fire appeared on his right hand. Then he started refining all the herbs inside the cauldron.
“That is a tier-9 essence fire! Where does this boy found it?” Elder Wang exclaimed on seeing the fire. “So, he is not messing with me.”
After ten minutes Joey completely refined all the herbs inside the cauldron without making any mistake.
Then he made multiple hand seals with his hands and shouted, “Activate!” After that, the essence qi around him started concentrating above his head. Then, it slowly transformed into the shape of a dragon. It flew around the room, roared, and entered inside his cauldron. Then Joey shouted, ” Closed !”
Then the cauldron closed its mouth. After that Joey started heating the cauldron with his essence flame changing the range of temperature from time to time.
After two minutes later, Joey deactivated the fire and shouted, “Open!”
Then the lips of the cauldron opened and then three golden color pills flew out from it.
He took out a small glass bottle and put the three pills inside it.
“Elder Wang, I have finished concocting my pills. Please, check them out.” Joey walked toward him and handed the small glass bottle to him.
Elder Wang took out a pill and started observing it using his eye technique.
“Tier 4 Yang essence pill. Purity 95%!” Elder Wang exclaimed. Then he looked at Joey.
Everyone in the room also looked at Joey and then at the golden pill.
Suyin looked at Joey while her hands clenched tightly under the table.
“Boy, come. We will go somewhere.” He said with a smile.
“Can I come along too?” The red robe man asked.
Elder Wang nodded. Then they came up to the top floor of the building.
After a few minutes later, they entered a room. The was filled the aromas of different herbs and pills.
An old man was currently writing a formula on a board hanging on the wall. His hair and clothes were totally unkept. He seemed like a crazy old man working on his formula all the time.
“Grand Chief, I need to have a chat with you.” Elder Wang said politely and bowed at him.
The old man kept writing on the board.
“Grand Chief!” Elder Wang called a bit louder this time.
“Boy, what do you need?” The old man spoke without turning at him.
“Grand Chief, I found a good seedling today. Please check this pill concocted by him.” Elder Wang said in a polite tone.
“Boy, you must go to Alchemy Chief, Hu Zixin. Don’t you see I am busy now? Stop, disturbing me about such things anymore. Get lost!” The old man shouted. Then, he kept writing on the board.
“Grand Chief, I found the answer to the first question you wrote on the mission list. I even plan to give it to you now. Tch tch. Forget it. I am leaving.” Then, he turned around to leave the room.
The old man stopped writing and turned toward them and shouted, ” Wait!”
Then, he suddenly appeared before him while blocking his way.
” Boy, come come. Aiyo! Where is my manner? Elder Wang takes a sit. We will drink your favorite Oolong Tea. ” He said and pushed him to a nearby chair. Then, he took out some materials from inside his space ring and started brewing tea.
After a few minutes, he sat on a chair. Then they started enjoying the tea.
The old man looked at Joey and the red robe man.
” Are they your disciple? Boys, come come. Joined us and have some tea.” The old man waved at them.
Joey and the red robe man sat on chairs nearby and joined them in drinking the teas.
“Elder Wang, can we now discuss the formula?” The old man asked.
Elder Wang remained silent. He took out a small glass bottle and passed it to him.
The old man took out a pill and looked at it carelessly.
“Aaah! Tier 4 Yang essence pill. Purity 99.0033%!” He exclaimed and took the other two pills inside it one by one. He stood up and suddenly jumped at Elder Wang and caught him by his shirt’s neck region.
“Who concocted this pill? Where the hell is he right now?” He asked.
“Old man, have you gone nut? Release me first. Aho ho..!” Elder Wang shouted and coughed.
The old man released and looked at him.
“It is that boy.” Elder Wang pointed at Joey.
“Do you really concoct this pill?” The old man asked at him with doubt.
