Other than one of the 18 Blood Condensation disciples standing behind Daoist Xuan Fang, none of them knew what Daoist Xuan Fang and the two Core Forging Enlightened Masters were talking about. However, they could tell that Daoist Xuan Fang was at a disadvantage in the argument. Naturally, they were all holding back their anger.
When they heard Daoist Jian Ming say that this person was Immortal Academy's most mysterious Elder Xuan Ping, the disciples' spirits were shaken. Even though they had long heard that this Elder Xuan Ping was a cultivator even younger than Elder Xuan Tian, they still couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when they saw Lu Ping.
As Lu Ping's cultivation continued to increase, his youthful appearance attracted more and more attention. Although Lu Ping used a face-changing secret technique to hide his true appearance, his youthfulness did not change at all. Although Lu Ping had the recipe for the Agerasia Pill and would occasionally refine some Agerasia Pills for sale in the Pill Pavilion, he had never taken a pill himself.
The reason why Lu Ping was still able to maintain the appearance of a young man in his twenties was not only because of his long lifespan, but also because he had refined two portions of Myriad Wonder Jade Dew, a total of 72 drops of Myriad Wonder Jade Dew.
This kind of heaven-grade spirit item had the effect of prolonging one's lifespan, and one of its side effects was to slow down the aging of one's face!
Lu Ping strode to Daoist Liu Xuanyuan and said with a smile, "Greetings, Senior Brother Liu!"
Although Liu Xuanyuan did not know why Lu Ping came to the Fist Valley in advance, he knew that Lu Ping had been to the Yingtian Dojo before, so he might know something that others did not. So, he asked with a smile, "Have you gained anything these days?"
Lu Ping nodded with a smile and said, "Although it's disappointing, at least I have some confidence in my heart."
After saying that, he turned to Daoist Xuan Fang and said with a smile, "Junior Brother, your alchemy skills have improved recently!"
Daoist Master Xuan Fang sighed and said: "I've made Senior Brother laugh at me. Originally, Junior Brother had made some progress in refining Mid Core Forging Pills, so I planned to refine Late Core Forging Pills. But today, I realized that I was biting off more than I could chew."
Lu Ping chuckled and said, "Why do you have to be like this? These two are alchemy masters who have been practicing alchemy for hundreds of years. That Flying Rainbow Zhenren is an alchemy master who can refine elixirs that are half a step to the Dharma stage. From the time you started practicing until now, you haven't even been a master for as long as they have. How can you possibly be a match for them? If you had reached their age, I'm afraid you would have already become an Alchemy Grandmaster. They wouldn't be able to catch up to you even if they whipped their horses. "
Lu Ping's words caused Daoist Master Xuan Fang's eyes to light up. But then he remembered that Lu Ping's cultivation time was actually about the same as his own, but Lu Ping was already an Alchemy Grandmaster and had great strength. Daoist Master Xuan Fang couldn't help but sigh.
Lu Ping patted his shoulder and looked at the Immortal Academy disciples behind him. When he saw that Du Jialuo was among them, Lu Ping wasn't too surprised. But when he saw that Tian Yue, who was originally at the Sixth Level of the Blood Condensation Realm, had also sealed his cultivation, he couldn't help but frown.
Lu Ping turned to look at Master Flying Rainbow and Master Gu Zhou behind him. Both of them had obviously heard Lu Ping's words of admonition to Daoist Master Xuan Fang, especially Master Flying Rainbow. When Lu Ping had seen through his alchemy realm, he couldn't help but feel a little frightened.
This person had such a high cultivation, could it be that he was also proficient in alchemy?
If that was really the case, then what kind of realm had his alchemy reached?
Before Master Flying Rainbow and Master Gu Zhou could figure out this problem, they heard Lu Ping's calm voice suddenly say, "Void Flame Pill!"
Master Flying Rainbow was stunned, while Master Gu Zhou's expression changed greatly.
However, Lu Ping didn't stop there. He looked at Enlightened Master Gu Zhou and said, "You haven't concocted any medicinal pellets in the past three days, so this cauldron of medicinal pellets must have been concocted three days ago. However, the success rate doesn't seem to be too high. It should be below 50%, but it should be above 30%."
Enlightened Master Gu Zhou stared at Lu Ping in a daze, speechless. Three days ago, he had indeed concocted the Void Flame Pellets with a success rate of around 40%. But how could this person in front of him know that?
Master Gu Zhou couldn't sense the slightest bit of smoke around Lu Ping. This could only mean that this person's alchemy skills were far superior to his, or he wasn't an alchemist at all. Moreover, no matter what, Master Gu Zhou felt that Master Xuan Ping was the second type.
But if he wasn't an alchemist, how could he have such an understanding of alchemy?
This was not a realm that could be reached through experience and foresight. Without personally practicing alchemy, it was impossible to understand the mutual scheming between alchemists.
Master Gu Zhou's attitude changed greatly, and he asked carefully, "May I ask if you are an alchemy grandmaster?"
Master Gu Zhou's words made Master Gu Hun and Master Jian Ming tremble. They naturally knew how high the status of an alchemy grandmaster was. An alchemy grandmaster at the Core Forging stage had a status comparable to a Dharma adept in the cultivation world.
Although the Gu family's strength wasn't too high among the middle-sized forces in Central Plains, they still had some ambition. However, the Gu family's biggest weakness was that they didn't have an alchemy grandmaster in the family, and this weakness had greatly hindered the Gu family's development and strength for the past few hundred years. Therefore, no one could have a stronger desire for an alchemy grandmaster than the Gu family practitioners.
Reverend Pang Feiyun of the Mountain Universe Sect, who had always been a man of few words, also had a change in expression. He glanced at Reverend Fei Hong, who was beside him, and saw that Reverend Fei Hong's expression was serious.
Lu Ping smiled and didn't answer Master Gu Zhou's question. His Divine Will was comparable to that of a Dharma adept like Changhe Laozu. If he didn't want to, these two people, even though they were alchemy grandmasters, and their Divine Wills were superior compared to other adepts of the same level, how could they compare to Lu Ping? Naturally, they wouldn't be able to discover anything.
What's more, Lu Ping cultivated a water-elemental cultivation technique. Compared to most alchemists in the cultivation world who cultivated wood-elemental or fire-elemental cultivation techniques, his identity as an alchemist was undoubtedly more concealed and deceptive.
Lu Ping then turned to look at Reverend Fei Hong and said, "My friend, the alchemy pill you refined earlier was the Qilin pill? Although this kind of pill is ordinary among alchemy pills half a step into the Dharma stage, it's a rather good pill for a Core Forging adept who has merged with a third type of spiritual item. "
Reverend Fei Hong's face turned pale. He wanted to say something, but there was only bitterness in his voice.
The Qilin pill was considered ordinary?
She was the top alchemist of the Mountain Universe Sect, and her position in the sect had always been high. Even Yu Shang Laozu favored her, hoping that she would become the first alchemy grandmaster of the Mountain Universe Sect. However, Reverend Fei Hong knew how difficult it was to become an alchemy grandmaster.
Although she had already concocted a half-step Dharma Realm medicinal pellet, just as Lu Ping had said, the Qi-Pang Pellet was only one of the most common and low-grade medicinal pellets among the half-step Dharma Realm medicinal pellets. There was still a long way to go before it could be used to concoct a cultivation level medicinal pellet.
And now, the Qilin pill could be said to be the limit of her alchemy skills.
A faint green light flashed in Lu Ping's eyes, and the Divine Senses that were drifting around Reverend Gu Zhou and Reverend Fei Hong also withdrew without them realizing it.
However, it seemed that Lu Ping did not intend to stop there, and he turned to look at Reverend Gu Zhou. Reverend Gu Zhou's heart skipped a beat for no reason, and he heard Lu Ping say, "You used a mid-Earth-level spiritual fire, right? This grade of spiritual fire is enough to refine the Void Flame Pill. However, although the Void Flame Pill is only a late Core Forging stage alchemy pill, its medicinal effects are fierce like fire. Cultivators who consume this pill will either waste a large portion of the medicinal effects, or their cultivation will increase by leaps and bounds in a short period of time."
Lu Ping ignored Reverend Gu Zhou's shocked expression and continued, "Therefore, it is best to use a high-Earth-level spiritual fire for this type of pill. Only then can the medicinal effects of the pill be even more fierce. I presume that the cultivators in your family who can consume this type of pill have already learned how to control the fierce medicinal effects. Thus, even if you use a high-Earth-level spiritual fire, you won't have to worry about wasting the medicinal effects. Instead, it can further promote their cultivation."
Reverend Gu Zhou hesitated for a moment, as if he was thinking about what Lu Ping had said. After a moment, although he was unwilling, he still bowed to Lu Ping and said, "Thank you for your guidance!"
When Lu Ping turned to look at Reverend Fei Hong, he saw a pair of eager eyes, as if eagerly waiting for something.
Lu Ping was startled for a moment, then said, "Your alchemy skills are already quite high. Originally, I didn't want to say much, but the Wondrous Panacea is all about the word 'strange', yet you used the conventional alchemy method to refine it. Although with your alchemy skills, you still managed to form the pill, the success rate was still affected."
Reverend Fei Hong's eyes flickered. Just like Reverend Gu Zhou, he bowed to Lu Ping and thanked him.
In the world of alchemy, those who had reached the pinnacle were first. With just a few words, Lu Ping had subdued the two alchemy masters who had just made Reverend Xuan Fang into a sorry state. With just a few pointers, the two alchemy masters bowed and thanked him. Not to mention the disciples from Immortal Academy whose faces were already filled with admiration, even Jian Ming, Gu Hun, and Pang Feiyun, the three Reverends, had looks of disbelief on their faces. Their gazes towards Lu Ping had also changed from reverence to respect.
The moment Reverend Liu Xuanyuan appeared, he knew that Lu Ping would definitely humiliate himself through the competition between alchemy masters.
What a joke, what was Lu Ping's identity?
Zhenling was the youngest alchemy grandmaster. Liu Xuanyuan had heard his teacher, Guo Tianshan Laozu, mention it in private. Tianlu Laozu had once said with a sigh that the day Lu Ping reached the Dharma stage would be the day his alchemy skills would surpass his own.
Furthermore, Liu Xuanyuan had guessed from the hints in Guo Tianshan Laozu's words that Lu Ping seemed to have several secret pill formulas on him. These pill formulas might even be precious items that could affect Zhenling's future, and Guo Tianshan Laozu's advancement to the Dharma stage also seemed to be directly related to Lu Ping.
Reverend Liu Xuanyuan knew that his teacher was actually hinting to him to maintain the friendship he had established with Lu Ping in Zhenling Side Courtyard. That way, it might be of great help to him in the future when he advanced to the Dharma stage.
