Chapter 226 Tianxiangzi! Caogu!
The interior furnishings are simple.
There was only one table and a few stools.
A young and beautiful woman, dressed in a black robe, sat at the table.
She cast her gaze over Chen Fan, looking him up and down.
This startled him, and he couldn't help but ask:
"May I ask..."
"No need to be surprised, I am Tian Xiangzi!" Before Chen Fan could finish speaking, Tian Xiangzi interrupted him directly!
Hearing this deep, middle-aged man's voice.
Chen Fan was somewhat taken aback.
After a moment of stunned silence, he finally accepted:
"Jidaozi... greets Fellow Daoist Tianxiangzi... I've come here to take the assessment at Caogu..."
"Okay!" Tianxiangzi nodded.
"Caogu has always treated alchemists with courtesy... If you have real skills, you will surely be able to become an alchemist... However, before you go to Caogu, I would like to ask you to show me your skills..."
After saying this, Tian Xiangzi took out a set of Qi Condensation Pill ingredients and a black iron pill furnace from her storage bag.
Chen Fan had anticipated this.
Without any surprise, he immediately began refining pills in front of the woman.
From the proportion of medicinal materials to fire control.
Chen Fan seemed to handle everything with ease.
In less than half an hour, a fragrant aroma of elixir wafted from the alchemy furnace.
Upon smelling the aroma, Tianxiangzi's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
He thought to himself that this Qi Condensation Pill seemed simple, but it was actually the best test of a pill master's skill.
If there is even the slightest deficiency in the alchemy process, it will be very difficult to refine a good pill in the end!
Moreover, alchemy and cultivation are different.
It's not true that the higher one's cultivation level, the higher one's alchemy skills!
This is largely related to one's talent for alchemy!
"Fellow Daoist, please take a look..."
Just as Tian Xiangzi was distracted, Chen Fan's voice rang out.
Coming to her senses, she nodded and then turned her gaze to the alchemy furnace.
At the bottom of the alchemy furnace lay three perfectly round Qi Condensation Pills!
"Top-grade... pill!" Tian Xiangzi determined with just one glance that it was a top-grade Qi Condensation Pill!
You should know that it's in the grass valley.
Only those second-grade alchemists can refine top-grade Qi Condensation Pills!
Moreover, this requires an extremely high level of skill from the alchemist!
Even a typical second-grade alchemist might not be able to refine this top-grade Qi Condensation Pill!
Overwhelmed with emotion, Tianxiangzi could not hide her excitement and said:
"Fellow Daoist Jidaozi...you've passed...I'll take you to Grass Valley now!"
Chen Fan's lips curled up in a smile.
Beneath the mask, his face was full of smiles.
His brief display of skill had clearly surprised this androgynous fellow Daoist!
Afterwards, Chen Fan followed Tian Xiangzi into the back room!
After arriving at a garden, the two stopped.
"Fellow Daoist...please wait a moment..."
Tianxiangzi walked up to a tree and muttered a few words. Then, a teleportation array appeared out of thin air!
Chen Fan, unfazed, nodded and stepped inside.
Tianxiangzi, who was following behind, also quickly caught up!
With a flash of light!
Soon, a valley with green hills and clear waters, surrounded by white mist, came into view.
In that misty valley, one can vaguely see clusters of palaces and pavilions, and even birds and beasts!
Enveloped in mist and clouds, this place looks just like a fairyland on earth!
Grass Valley!
Chen Fan stared straight ahead, a hint of surprise on his face!
Moreover, when the transmission was just completed, he clearly sensed that the distance was at least tens of thousands of miles!
Compared to his transmission array, this array is clearly far superior!
Tianxiangzi, standing shoulder to shoulder with him, chuckled softly:
"Fellow Daoist, welcome to Grass Valley... Please follow me..."
Chen Fan nodded.
Having taken a liking to this place, he suddenly felt an itch to get his hands on it.
For example, those trees on the slope ahead have unique shapes and lush foliage.
The fruit growing there looks quite extraordinary.
If we could transplant it back into a bowl and plant it, it might become a unique sight.
There are also two majestic and imposing stone sculptures of mythical beasts in front of the mountain gate.
Chen Fan liked it very much.
It would be great if we could move it to the front gate of the town!
that's it.
As Chen Fan followed Tian Xiangzi into the Grass Valley, he had quite a few plans in mind.
As for when to take action, he still needs to think about it!
We hadn't walked far after crossing the mountain gate.
A plaza built of white jade comes into view.
The square is surrounded by palaces on both sides, and a grand hall stands in front!
In the center of the square stood a huge alchemy furnace, from which puffs of white mist rose.
"Junior sister...you're back..."
As the two approached the square, a handsome young man of medium build, dressed in a long black robe, walked towards them!
With a smile on his face, he stepped forward and inquired about her well-being:
"Junior sister... Tianxiang Tower must be a tough place to stay... Tomorrow I'll go talk to Master and ask to be transferred instead..."
Tianxiangzi remained silent after hearing this.
Judging from her furrowed brows, she clearly didn't like this man!
Chen Fan, standing to the side, looked slightly embarrassed.
Listen to the man's various acts of concern and flattery.
This person is most likely the type who loves someone but can't have them, and enjoys making advances only to be rejected!
Chen Fan, who had never experienced love, couldn't understand it either!
The only way to show respect is to remain silent!
However, the three of them had only walked a few steps.
The man suddenly fixed his gaze on Chen Fan and said:
"Junior sister, why are you ignoring me? Could it be because of this pretty boy..."
pretty boy?
Chen Fan was speechless!
Let's not even talk about the fact that he's a useless eunuch!
He couldn't accept Tian Xiangzi's rough voice either!
Just as Chen Fan was somewhat speechless.
But then Tianxiangzi spoke up and rebuked:
"Senior Brother Guang'anzi, please get out of the way... This fellow Daoist is here for the Grass Valley assessment... Don't flatter yourself!"
Guang Anzi's face turned bright red!
Realizing he had wronged his junior sister, he quickly took out a pill from his storage bag:
"Junior sister, junior sister... I misunderstood you... This is a second-grade beauty-preserving pill... Please accept it!"
Tianxiangzi remained indifferent and strode forward!
Guang Anzi's outstretched hand froze in mid-air!
Chen Fan shook his head inwardly upon seeing this scene!
I could only hurry up and get closer.
Soon, the three arrived in front of the main hall.
The Hall of Nourishing Elixir!
Looking up, three characters on the plaque, written in a vigorous and powerful style, come into view!
"Second Elder...can the alchemist assessment still be held today?"
Tianxiangzi, who had just arrived in front of the hall, clasped his hands slightly and asked softly.
"Come tomorrow..."
An aged voice soon echoed from inside the hall.
"Fellow Daoist, take a day off. I'll bring you for the assessment tomorrow." Tian Xiangzi turned around and smiled.
"Sure..." Chen Fan replied with a smile, not in a hurry.
This scene, when witnessed by Guang Anzi, was as painful as if it had killed him.
That feeling of jealousy made him clench his teeth!
Watching his departing figure, he stomped his foot in frustration and left!
Leave the Hall of Nourishing Elixir.
Chen Fan followed Tian Xiangzi all the way to a cliff in the Grass Valley.
Upon closer inspection, there is a stone chamber every hundred feet.
There are flowers, grass, and various herbs in front of the door.
"Fellow Daoist Jidaozi, why don't you stay here for the night?" Tianxiangzi said with a smile.
"I will come to find you tomorrow morning!"
Chen Fan clasped his hands slightly in a fist salute.
I glanced at the stone chamber and followed it inside...
