Meeting Willow Deity Again
Qi Tai replied carefully, but he couldn't remember Elder Xuan. However, this was normal. Since he was able to dress up like this, he definitely didn't want to reveal his identity. Using a fake name was normal.
Qi Tai led Gu Xuan into the room and gestured for him to sit in the seat of honor. Gu Xuan sat down without hesitation and naturally sat above this grade two alchemist.
Qi Tai was even more certain that this Elder Xuan was a big shot. If it was an ordinary person pretending to be a grade two alchemist, not many people could casually sit above him.
"What business does Elder Xuan want to do this time?" Qi Tai probed.
"I want to buy a treasure that can repair one's soul." Gu Xuan said with a hoarse voice.
Qi Tai's spirit was shaken. Soon after, he smiled with some hesitation. "A treasure that can repair one's soul. This indeed costs more than a million gold coins. I wonder if Elder Xuan can …"
"Hmph!" Gu Xuan snorted disdainfully. He took out a purple-gold card and slapped it on the table. "Is this enough?"
Hearing the disdain in Gu Xuan's voice, Qi Tai's heart tightened. He hurriedly explained, "Elder Xuan, please don't blame me. After all, this is the rule of our Beichen Trading Company. If you want to buy something that the trading company lacks, you must first pay the price and then withdraw it from the headquarters. It will take about a month."
"A month?" Gu Xuan knitted his brows. He was pressed for time. A month was too long.
"The thing that you want to buy is too expensive. I can't gather it in a short time." Qi Tai was also helpless. Soon after, Qi Tai's eyes lit up. After thinking for a moment, he carefully said, "However, if you are an alchemist of a higher grade than me, I think there is a shortcut."
"Oh?" Gu Xuan was a little interested. "Tell me about it."
Qi Tai's heart thumped. Although Gu Xuan's words were understated, there was no doubt that he admitted that he was an alchemist above grade two.
Above grade two was grade three. As a veteran alchemist, he knew what this grade meant. Now that he was facing such an alchemist, Qi Tai's mood became nervous.
"There are still treasures in the trading company that can recover souls. However, I did not store them properly and caused some damage. This treasure has been contaminated with some poison, making it unusable. I originally wanted to wait for a period of time before handing it over to my master to deal with. However, if milord is a rank three alchemist, dealing with it should be easy."
"What benefits can I obtain?" Gu Xuan went straight to the point.
"This treasure is originally worth 1.15 million gold coins, but if you can repair it, I am willing to compensate you with 350,000 gold coins." Qi Tai said excitedly.
"Alright, deal." Gu Xuan nodded. He stood up and waved his hand, "Now, bring me there."
Qi Tai was extremely excited and hurriedly brought Gu Xuan to his private alchemy room.
Qi Tai would have to bear a lot of responsibility for damaging this treasure. Even if he handed it over to his master to deal with, he would lose at least seven hundred thousand gold coins. If Elder Xuan could help him, it would be the best thing that could happen.
Qi Tai took out a box. After opening it, a blood-red gemstone was revealed. This gemstone was the size of a fist and was crystal clear. However, there were some ink-black spots inside.
"This is the Divine Refining Stone that can recover the soul. I stored it in my alchemy room, but I didn't expect that after refining pills for a long time, it would constantly be contaminated. In a few years, some poison had seeped into the Divine Refining Stone." Qi Tai said with a wry smile.
"Hmm?" After Gu Xuan carefully observed the black poison, he could not help but be slightly shocked.
Qi Tai's heart tightened. If Elder Xuan could not do anything, then he could only report it to the Merchant Union and let the headquarters deal with it. However, his sin would be great.
Gu Xuan was not in the mood to care about Qi Tai's thoughts. He was only excited. He extended his finger and with a "poof", the Icy Soul Cold Flame started burning on his finger.
The pitch-black poison gradually evaporated after the Icy Soul Cold Flame appeared. It turned into wisps of black gas and surged towards the Icy Soul Cold Flame.
"It's a success?" Qi Tai was shocked and said in disbelief.
It was not that he did not know how hard it was to get rid of the poison. With his control ability as a Tier Two Alchemist, he could not do it. However, Gu Xuan could do it just by showing the flame. This was too shocking.
"If you don't want it to break, then don't talk." Gu Xuan said coldly.
Qi Tai quickly shut his mouth. Although Gu Xuan pretended to be serious, he was already ecstatic.
This was because after the black poison gas was purified by the Icy Soul Cold Flame, it turned into pure Qi of Heaven and Earth and was injected into his Dantian. This caused the flame power in Gu Xuan's Dantian to slowly increase.
"As expected, the Icy Soul Cold Flame itself has the ability to purify. This' poison 'is just some burnt medicinal power. Moreover, it is very condensed. Otherwise, it would not be able to seep into the Spiritual Refining Stone. As long as I use the Icy Soul Cold Flame to purify it, the effect will be better than swallowing elixirs!"
Gu Xuan was ecstatic. The Icy Soul Cold Flame could always bring him surprises.
Qi Tai had never thought that the poison that he hated so much would be turned into such a large amount of pure medicinal energy by the Icy Soul Frosty Flame, a heaven-defying item!
Gu Xuan suppressed the excitement in his heart and kept the Icy Soul Cold Flame back into his body. He said slowly, "I can indeed get rid of the poison in this stone. However, I need some time. I think Master Qi Tai will not mind if I borrow your cultivation room for a few days."
"No, Elder Xuan, please use it! I will also help you to protect you during these few days. "Qi Tai was delighted and said quickly.
"Alright." Gu Xuan nodded. It was not difficult to get rid of the impurities. However, if he wanted to absorb the medicinal power in this stone, he would inevitably be distracted. It was best to have someone to protect him.
Gu Xuan found a comfortable spot in the alchemy room and sat down cross-legged. He placed the Spiritual Refining Stone in front of him and summoned the Icy Soul Cold Flame out of his body. He started to extract the poison from within.
Under the power of the Heavenly Fire, the poison was gradually evaporated. Then, it was completely devoured. After it was purified, it turned into pure medicinal power and flowed into Gu Xuan's Dantian.
Under the medicinal power, Gu Xuan could even feel that his flame power was increasing.
Ba!
After half a day, the jet-black poison was completely absorbed. Gu Xuan's Eight Star Xuan Spiritual Grade cultivation was also completely stabilized.
To be able to achieve such results in such a short period of time, the power of the poison could be said to be terrifying.
After continuously activating the Icy Soul Cold Flame, Gu Xuan felt a little tired. He wanted to rest for a while. He kept the flame in his body and opened his eyes.
With a glance, Gu Xuan could not help but be stunned. In the room, besides Qi Tai, Willow Deity, who was known as the second genius of the county, was also standing by the side.
However, Willow Deity was a little reserved at this moment. She glanced at Gu Xuan from time to time and her face was flushed with excitement.
"Sir, this is my disciple. His name is Willow Deity. I brought him here to observe and learn." Qi Tai saw that Gu Xuan was awake and quickly said. He then looked at Willow Deity and said unhappily, "Willow Deity, why are you not greeting this alchemy master?"
