Facing everyone's praises, Qin Feiyang didn't feel complacent at all.
Because he knew very well that the Mu Clan's Patriarch and Jiang Clan's Patriarch had nothing to do with him.
The two clans had been fighting openly and secretly for many years, and their grudges were deep. Today's incident was just a fuse that let the two clan's Patriarchs find a way to vent their hatred and anger.
So, this had nothing to do with whether he was smart or not.
After asking around about the location of the Pill Hall, he left in big strides.
Although he didn't lack gold coins now, he still wanted to test whether his mental strength was qualified or not.
After all, auctioning martial skills wasn't a long-term plan.
Alchemy was the real way out.
The Pill Hall was located in the East City District, covering an area of about a thousand feet.
There were many halls, and it was extraordinary!
The Pill Hall here also had a stone staircase.
Actually, the purpose of the stone staircase was to stop mortals.
After all, in a small city like Black Bear City, most of the people were mortals. If they all went to participate in the test, wouldn't the Pill Hall be busy?
So.
The Pill Hall thought of a way to use 999 stone staircases as the first test to let the mortals know how difficult it was and retreat.
If someone really climbed to the top with a mortal body, then even if he didn't have the talent for alchemy, he was still a cultivation genius worth cultivating.
It was summer.
On the long stone staircase, there were many people climbing.
They were all mortals with dreams.
As long as they reached the top, they could be reborn and soar to the sky.
Unfortunately, the reality was cruel.
Many people were already tired before they reached the middle of the mountain.
Only a martial artist would have hope.
Qin Feiyang walked as if he was flying, passing one person after another. Under countless envious gazes, he quickly reached the top.
There was an old man in white sitting cross-legged at the top.
Sensing someone coming up, he opened his eyes and looked at Qin Feiyang for a while. He asked, "You are Jiang Haotian?"
"Yes, I am."
Qin Feiyang nodded.
The old man in white said, "Young man, you are very good. But here, you have to lower your status. Because if you want to become an alchemist, it's not enough to have brains."
"I understand."
Qin Feiyang cupped his hands and said.
"Come with me."
The white-robed old man stood up and pushed open the door of the main hall. He called out to Qin Feiyang and strode in.
Outside the palace was a dazzling sight.
However, the decorations inside the palace were very simple.
Other than a few chairs, there was only an altar.
There was a crystal placed on the stage. It was about the size of a palm and had distinct edges. Sunlight shone down from the transparent tiles on the ceiling, giving it a glaring luster.
The old man in white stood beside the altar and looked at Qin Feiyang. "Place your hand on the crystal stone. Don't use your True Qi, and don't use too much strength. Just close your eyes and meditate. The crystal stone will automatically absorb your spiritual power."
"Alright."
Qin Feiyang nodded and pressed his hand on the crystal. A cold feeling immediately came from his palm.
Immediately after.
He closed his eyes, his heart as still as water, and entered the state of meditation.
Gradually.
The crystal emitted rays of light.
But this was very common.
Even if a mortal pressed their hand on it, the crystal would glow.
That was because everyone had spiritual power. The only difference was how strong or weak they were.
About ten breaths passed.
"Buzz!"
The crystal stone suddenly trembled and emitted a strong light!
"Level one spiritual power!"
The old man in white focused his gaze and began to look forward to it.
In fact, a level one spiritual power was already qualified to refine pills.
But the achievements were limited.
But now, the light of the crystal stone was still getting stronger. It was enough to show that this kid's spiritual power was not just level one.
"Buzz!"
Another ten breaths passed.
The crystal stone trembled again and the light was even stronger than before!
"Level two spiritual power!"
The old man in white's eyes lit up and he was looking forward to it.
"Buzz!"
Soon.
The crystal stone trembled for the third time and the light was even stronger!
"Not bad, not bad."
The old man in white nodded.
But not long after.
The crystal stone trembled again!
This was the fourth time!
The old man in white could no longer calm down. His old eyes were shining.
There were only a dozen people who had level four spiritual power in the entire Black Bear City Pill Hall.
But in terms of spiritual power, this kid was already considered one of the best.
Hua!
Before he finished his thought, the crystal stone trembled again and the blazing light shone on the entire palace!
Level five spiritual power!
The old man in white trembled and clenched his fists.
His eyes were burning with passion!
Could it be that he had met an alchemy genius this time?
"It has already trembled five times."
Qin Feiyang was also very excited.
Although he closed his eyes, he could feel it clearly.
He knew a little about the spiritual power test. The more the crystal stone trembled, the brighter the light. This meant that the strength of the spiritual power was higher.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that his Spiritual Power could actually reach Level Five!
More importantly, he didn't feel the slightest bit of exhaustion.
In other words …
The strength of his spiritual power was far more than that!
The crystal stone continued to absorb his spiritual power.
Swoosh!
Soon, the crystal stone trembled for the sixth time!
"Level six spiritual power!"
The old man in white trembled and muttered, "In the Black Bear City Pill Hall, only one person has reached level six spiritual power. It seems that I have really encountered a treasure this time!"
He hurriedly closed the door and returned to Qin Feiyang's side. He stared at the crystal stone.
"Buzz!"
The seventh tremor happened!
The old man in white's heart almost jumped out of his chest.
Level seven spiritual power. Even in Yan City, he was one of the best!
"This is a treasure. I have to inform the Hall Master quickly!"
He suppressed the excitement in his heart and took out a crystal the size of an egg. As he inserted his True Qi, a ray of light rushed out. After a while, a virtual shadow appeared.
It was a middle-aged man. He was seven feet tall. His eyebrows were sharp like swords. There were spots of white hair at his temples. He had experienced a lot and had a domineering aura!
His name was Luo Xiong. He was the Hall Master of the Black Bear City Pill Hall!
Luo Xiong asked, "Old Feng, why are you looking for me?"
The old man in white said hurriedly, "Come to the testing hall immediately!"
"What for?"
Luo Xiong was puzzled.
"Don't talk nonsense. Hurry up!"
After the old man in white finished speaking, he waved his hand and the virtual shadow quickly disappeared.
"Buzz buzz!"
At this moment.
The crystal stone trembled for the eighth time!
The light that bloomed made it almost impossible for people to open their eyes!
"Level eight spiritual power!"
"How is this possible?"
"Even in the entire Yan County, there is only one person like this!"
The old man in white went completely crazy.
He even wanted to hug Qin Feiyang in his arms and give him a few kisses!
At the same time.
Qin Feiyang's heart couldn't calm down.
Level eight spiritual power. Even in the capital, he was a genius in alchemy!
What excited him the most was that until now, his spiritual power didn't show any signs of exhaustion.
This meant that.
The strength of his spiritual power was more than level eight!
"No!"
"I don't plan to enter the Pill Hall yet. I can't continue like this. Otherwise, I will definitely be entangled by the people from the Pill Hall."
At this point.
Qin Feiyang's body shook violently. He pretended that his spiritual power was exhausted. He retracted his hand and held his head. He looked dispirited.
However.
Just as he retracted his hand, the crystal stone trembled again!
"Damn!"
Qin Feiyang cursed in his heart.
Was there anyone who teased him like this?
He had already retracted his hand. He actually did it again. He couldn't even keep a low profile!
He looked at the old man in white.
As expected!
The expression of the old man in white was extremely exaggerated. His two eyeballs almost popped out.
This kid actually had level nine spiritual power!
Unbelievable.
It was really unbelievable!
"Let's take this chance to retreat!"
Qin Feiyang turned around quietly and sneaked towards the door.
"Stop!"
But at this moment.
The old man in white suddenly roared. He turned around and looked at him. His old eyes shone brightly.
Qin Feiyang's body stiffened. He immediately knew that something was wrong.
This old man definitely wouldn't let him go easily today.
"Cough, cough!"
Qin Feiyang coughed dryly and said with a smile, "Senior, there must be something wrong with the crystal stone. So, please don't take what you saw just now seriously. I'll take my leave."
After that.
He rushed towards the door angrily as if he was running for his life.
Creak!
But suddenly.
The door was pushed open.
Luo Xiong stood outside the door. Seeing Qin Feiyang rushing towards him, he frowned.
"You came just in time!"
Qin Feiyang was overjoyed. He stepped out of the door and was about to escape.
"Temple Master, stop him!"
But at this moment, the old man in white suddenly shouted.
"Hmph!"
Luo Xiong snorted coldly and grabbed Qin Feiyang's clothes with a backhand. Then, he threw Qin Feiyang into the main hall. Qin Feiyang rolled in front of the white-clothed old man like a ball.
Luo Xiong followed him into the hall and closed the door. He looked at Qin Feiyang unkindly and was about to ask the old man in white about the situation.
"Temple Master, I only asked you to stop him. I didn't ask you to throw him!"
But the old man in white stared at him angrily. He hurriedly helped Qin Feiyang up and said with concern, "Little brother, are you alright? Our Temple Master has a bad temper. Don't argue with him."
"What?"
Luo Xiong was stunned. His face was filled with confusion.
"I'm fine, I'm fine."
Qin Feiyang waved his hand and said with a smile. He hurriedly said, "Senior, I still have something to do. Can you let me …"
"No!"
Without waiting for him to finish his words, the old man in white shook his head decisively and said seriously, "You have Level Nine mental power. Only by entering the Pill Hall will your talent not be wasted."
"Level Nine mental power?"
Luo Xiong was shocked.
Qin Feiyang looked at Luo Xiong and felt bitter. He said to the old man in white, "Senior, I already said that there must be something wrong with the crystal. If you don't believe me, we can try again."
The old man in white frowned.
He really couldn't understand why this kid would deny his talent.
He pondered for a while.
He nodded and said, "Alright, I will satisfy you. Change to another crystal and try again. But if you really have Level Nine mental power, you must stay in the Pill Hall."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Qin Feiyang nodded like he was pounding garlic.
The old man in white took out a brand new crystal from his Qiankun Pouch and signaled Qin Feiyang to press it.
After Qin Feiyang pressed his hand on it, the crystal trembled.
Qin Feiyang secretly laughed. He immediately retracted his hand and rubbed his head. He shook his head and said, "Aiyo, senior, I can't take it anymore. My head is dizzy."
"What?"
The old man in white was shocked. Could it be that there was something wrong with the crystal?
"Senior, can I leave now?"
Qin Feiyang asked.
The old man in white was still confused. He instinctively nodded.
Immediately.
