The Mortal's Path to Immortality

Chapter 74 [Qingshuang Pill] Residue

Cao Rui waved.

The paper crane turned into a stream of light and automatically jumped into Cao Rui's hand.

Cao Rui gathered his magic power slightly to activate the Paper Crane. A male voice came from inside: "Master Uncle Cao, Master Nephew Zhang Chenyi, please receive the news and be sure to go to the Alchemy Academy to discuss it!"

Cao Rui listened carefully to the voice in Qianzhihe, his face softened slightly.

According to the time information left on the paper crane, this message was sent a month ago.

Cao Rui thought to himself: "You want me to go to the alchemy academy? Could it be that Han Yuansheng had an accident?"

Cao Rui couldn't help but frown.

Speaking of which, Han Yuansheng has been out for almost half a year.

During this period of time, no news came back from him, as if he had disappeared from the world.

And Cao Rui has no direct connection with the Alchemy Academy. Now that he suddenly received such news, Cao Rui would inevitably blame Han Yuansheng.

Cao Rui sighed softly and decided to go to the Alchemy Academy immediately to learn about the situation.

In any case, he must find out what happened and understand Han Yuansheng's situation.

The Alchemy Institute is located on the main peak, which is convenient.

Cao Rui stepped out of the training cave and called Hei Yu.

During the four months of Cao Rui's retreat, Heiyu had been obedient in the small courtyard in front of the cave, only occasionally going out to hunt.

After not seeing each other for a month, Heiyu seemed to miss Cao Rui very much. After seeing Cao Rui, he stuck out his head and kept rubbing Cao Rui's face affectionately.

It's just that this guy's wings were very hard. After being rubbed a few times, Cao Rui stopped him from doing this and pushed him away.

Cao Rui took out the Huanglong Pill that had been successfully refined for twenty times before and fed it to Heiyu.

The first-order elixir entered his mouth, and the rich medicinal power turned into spiritual power, causing Heiyu to cry excitedly.

During the Qi refining period, feed the spirit beasts with first-level elixirs.

Only Cao Rui, an alchemist, could be so luxurious.

Cao Rui jumped on Heiyu's back and patted Heiyu's head. Cao Rui said softly: "Let's go to the main peak."

Black Feather spread out his wings, and their wingspan reached an exaggerated more than ten meters.

The black feather turned into a black eagle and flew towards the main peak.

After reaching the main peak, Black Feather let out a cry and reluctantly got into the beast control bag.

Cao Rui went up the steps and came to the Alchemy Courtyard on the right side of the Internal Affairs Hall.

As one of the important departments of the Spiritual Beast Sect, the Alchemy Academy's importance cannot be underestimated.

There is one elder deacon and two ordinary deacons.

Zhang Chenyi, who sent a message to Cao Rui to come to the Alchemy Academy this time, was one of these two ordinary deacons.

The layout of the Alchemy Academy is also quite unique.

The first thing that catches the eye is the front courtyard, which is specially used to receive inner and outer disciples.

These disciples can come here regularly according to regulations to receive the Bigu Pills they need.

After passing through the front yard, we came to the middle yard.

The middle courtyard is the core area of ​​the Alchemy Academy. There are alchemy rooms here for the disciples of the Alchemy Academy to refine various elixirs.

Finally, there is the backyard, which is where the disciples of the Alchemy Academy rest.

"Hello, Uncle Master, may I ask why you are here at the Alchemy Academy?"

A disciple of the Alchemy Academy recognized Cao Rui's seniority and came over to ask.

This alchemy academy disciple is also wearing blue inner disciple uniforms.

But the difference is that in addition to the Spirit Beast Sect's mark, there is also an Alchemy Furnace mark on his chest.

This is the logo of the disciple of the Spiritual Beast Sect’s Alchemy Courtyard.

"I'm Cao Rui. Zhang Chenyi asked me to come here." Cao Rui said softly.

"Huh? So you are Uncle Cao!" This disciple of the Alchemy Academy seemed to have heard of Cao Rui's name.

Zhang Chenyi should have given Cao Rui's information in advance.

"Uncle Cao, please come with me. The deacons are in the middle courtyard." After this disciple of the Alchemy Academy learned Cao Rui's identity, he took Cao Rui directly to the middle courtyard.

Cao Rui thought for a moment, but then took steps to follow.

The middle courtyard of the alchemy courtyard is decorated in an antique style, with alchemy rooms on both sides. It can be seen that many disciples who are committed to becoming alchemists are refining elixirs in the alchemy rooms.

This is the core area of ​​the Alchemy Academy - the Middle Courtyard.

In a spacious and bright hall in the middle courtyard, the atmosphere was solemn, and Su Zimo, the elder deacon of the Alchemy Academy, frowned.

At this moment, Zhang Chenyi and another female deacon were also standing aside with serious faces.

At this moment, Cao Rui followed the disciples from the Alchemy Academy and slowly walked into the hall.

"Elder Su, two deacons, Uncle Han is here!" The disciples of the Alchemy Academy shouted from a distance.

Hearing the sound, the three people's eyes immediately turned to the door.

Su Zimo and the deaconess looked confused.

However, when Zhang Chenyi saw Cao Rui's figure, his face showed joy, and he strode forward to greet him: "Uncle Cao, you are finally out of seclusion!"

It turned out that this time it was Zhang Chenyi who invited Cao Rui on his own initiative.

Zhang Chenyi had personally gone to Chaori Peak to look for Cao Rui before, but he found a sign of retreat posted outside Cao Rui's training cave, so he didn't dare to disturb it easily.

In the end, he had no choice but to keep a paper crane technique and wait for Cao Rui to come out of seclusion before contacting him.

"What happened?" Cao Rui looked at Zhang Chenyi who was looking happy. It seemed that what happened had nothing to do with Han Yuansheng.

Cao Rui cast his doubtful gaze on Elder Su and the deaconess not far away.

Zhang Chenyi hurriedly pulled Cao Rui towards Elder Su and the female deacon, and said, "Uncle Cao, please come with me. This way."

Coming closer, Zhang Chenyi introduced: "This is our alchemy academy elder steward, Elder Su Zimo, and this is disciple steward Bai Mengli."

"Elder, Mengli, this is Uncle Cao Rui whom I mentioned. The previous batches of fasting pills obtained from Senior Brother Han were made by Uncle Cao Rui on behalf of Senior Brother Han."

"I think Uncle Han's alchemy skills are no less than Senior Brother Han's, but he is just a low-key person."

"Now that Senior Brother Han is not in the sect, the only one who can quickly try to analyze it should be Uncle Cao!"

Zhang Chenyi flattered Cao Rui, and Cao Rui's old face blushed slightly.

Although his alchemy skills are improving rapidly, you are a bit too much.

Su Zimo looked at Cao Rui after hearing this. Since Zhang Chenyi praised Cao Rui so much, whether it succeeds or not, it seems that he can only pin his hopes on Cao Rui.

It has been a month, and there is no news from Han Yuansheng.

Su Zimo said bluntly: "Junior Brother Cao, the sect has just obtained a 0-level pill recipe, but the recipe is incomplete and lacks some of the refining techniques."

"Do you have a way to refine it?"

Su Zimo, a master in the foundation-building stage, is over a hundred years old and is the 100th generation disciple of the Spirit Beast Sect. In terms of seniority, Cao Rui has to call him uncle, and it is completely fine for him to call Cao Rui nephew.

Although Su Zimo is not proficient in alchemy, he is more than enough to manage the Alchemy Institute with his cultivation.

"So that's what happened. It seems that it has nothing to do with Han Yuansheng." Cao Rui breathed a sigh of relief.

"Incomplete recipe?"

Cao Rui's heart moved. The 0-level pill recipe that the sect valued should have very good effects.

"I need to see the recipe." Cao Rui said cautiously.

Su Zimo gestured to Bai Mengli. Although the female deacon was a little skeptical about the alchemy level of Cao Rui who suddenly appeared, she still took out the incomplete recipe and handed it over.

Cao Rui took the incomplete recipe and read it at a glance.

"The effect of the 0-level cultivation pill [Qingshuang Pill] is 20% stronger than the Lingyuan Pill, but the cost is 10% less?"

"This is a strategic 0-level pill recipe that can change the grassroots of the sect. No wonder the elders of the alchemy institute and even the entire sect are eager to refine it."

"Although it lacks some refining techniques, I should be able to accumulate enough experience points with the experience pill. As long as I get started, everything will be fine."

Cao Rui made some calculations in his mind and nodded slightly: "I can give it a try."
