Chapter 117: Another Round

you, it's that I really don't know!"However, his reply caused Situ Jing to sit up straight, cupping her hands in a salute, and nod slightly, saying: "Thank you, Daoist Bu!"Although Buyi didn't give Si...Looking at the two pills in Jiang Yun's hands, the crowd was instantly in an uproar!

Du Guirong was like a fool, his eyes widened to the extreme, obviously unable to believe that this young man who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old had actually successfully refined two Qi Gathering Pills of the mortal rank!

Although he desperately wanted to deny the quality of these two pills, if he did so in front of so many people, it would be a true disgrace to alchemists.

Gingeryun no longer even glanced at Du Guirong, directly turning to face the middle-aged man whose complexion was pale. He threw two pills into his hand and said, "This is compensation for my misdiagnosis!"

Xia Zhongxing once again came before Du Guirong, smiling and bowing: "Master Du, please, please, goodbye!"

"Humph!"

At this point, Du Guirong was utterly ashamed to continue staying here. She turned around and prepared to leave.

However, Ginger Cloud was looking at his back and suddenly spoke again, "Master Du, I wonder if you're interested in having another match"

This sentence silenced the astonished crowd.

Let's fight again!

Although Ginger Cloud did indeed refine the Qi-Inviting Pill and won against Du Guirong, in most people's eyes, this was because Du Guirong let him.

If it were truly a fair fight, the difference between ordinary people and those of noble birth would be clear to see.

However, it's shocking that Jiang Yun is now seeking to fight Du Guirong again. This leaves people feeling astonished and increasingly confused about Jiang Yun's motives.

Could it be that the ancient master was also a second-rank alchemist

A faint voice suddenly emerged from the crowd, but it was immediately dismissed by everyone.

"The rank of an alchemist is not self-proclaimed, but rather needs to be recognized by the Yaoshending Sect. They must refine the corresponding pills in front of members of the Yaoshending Sect. Only after successful refinement will they be awarded the Dan Pei by the Yaoshending Sect!"

Besides, the ancient master was too young. He looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. Although his medical skills were indeed extraordinary, at such a young age, even if he were an alchemist, he would at most be a first-rank one.

"Indeed, even Lian Xiazhongxing is only a first-rank Alchemist. If the shop boy was actually a second-rank Alchemist, wouldn't that be a joke"

In the midst of everyone's discussions, Du Guirong, who had just been about to leave, suddenly turned around. However, he did not look at Jiang Yun, but instead looked at Xia Zhongxing.

Apparently, what he still cared about was Xia Zhongxing's Pill of Path Building. Therefore, as long as Xia Zhongxing agreed to use the Pill of Path Building as a bet again, he would naturally be very happy to have another duel with Jiang Yun.

To be honest, Xia Zhongxing was a little surprised by Jiang Yun's proactive provocation. However, feeling the gaze of Du Guirong at this moment, he pondered for a moment before nodding and saying, "As long as Master Du is willing, I naturally have no objection."

Even Xia Zhongxing directly took out a jade bottle and stuffed it into Jiang Yun's hand, saying, "This is the Zhu Dao Dan!"

Holding the jade bottle in his hand, Jiang Yun's heart warmed. Xia Zhongxing actually trusted him so much that he was willing to hand over the Zhidao Pill as a wager.

With a slight smile, Jiang Yun returned the jade bottle to Xia Zhongxing and said, "There's no need for Xia shopkeeper's Zhidao Dan. I'll use this as my wager instead."

As he spoke, a golden talisman appeared in Jiang Yun's hand!

Seeing this talisman, even Du Guirong's eyes lit up. He murmured, "Qiyun Fu!"

So-called "Qi Yun charms" are, as the name suggests, items that can increase one's Qi Yun. They may sound useless at first glance, but in reality, their effects are tremendous.

Whether it's cultivators practicing cultivation or alchemists refining medicine and artifacts, they all need the blessing of Qi Yun. Unfortunately, Qi Yun is elusive and impossible to control.

But if you have a lucky charm, it's as if you have some luck.

When refining medicine or artifacts, adding a Qi Yun talisman can at least increase the success rate by half.

Even when entering a higher realm, using a Qiyun talisman can still increase the chances of successfully advancing.

The only reason these Qi Yun talismans are so rare is because they are incredibly complex to draw. They require channeling the energy of heaven and earth into a tiny piece of paper, which is extremely difficult. That's why they are such a sought-after treasure.

When people saw the talisman, they were truly excited!

In this tiny apothecary, the shopkeeper had a fifth-rank elixir called "Foundation Building Pill," and surprisingly, the young apprentice had a Qi Luck Talisman!

This air talisman was given to Jiang Yun by Lan Huazhao, the head of Tianfu Peak, as a gift when he became his disciple.

At the beginning, Ginger Cloud didn't know its value until he arrived in Nánxīng City and saw someone offering a high price to buy this talisman at a talismanshop. This made him realize the importance of this talisman.

"Good!" Du Guirong's eyes shone with undisguised greed as he addressed Jiang Yun, "Boy, this old man admits to being careless just now. Now I'll fight you again."

Jiang Yun waved his hand and said, "Master Du, don't be too happy yet. It's no problem to fight again, but if Master Du loses again, shouldn't he also put something up as a wager"

"You want me to take out what" Du Guirong sneered.

Jiang Yun pointed at the scattered flower burner on the ground that hadn't been put away yet, "It's this. If you lose, leave this medicine burner behind!"

"You want my incense burner!" Du Guirong's face was filled with mockery as he burst into laughter. "Fine, but this time old man won't let you have it!"

"I wonder what kind of elixir Master Du is planning to refine this time. Of course, the prerequisite remains that it can only be a first-grade elixir, and the materials still need to be provided by Master Du."

Jiang Yun's request once again confirmed what everyone in their hearts had thought, even if Jiang Yun was an alchemist, he was at most a first-grade one!

Du Guirong didn't speak, but fell into deep thought. Obviously, he wanted to think carefully about which first-grade elixir he was most skilled at making.

After a while, Du Guirong finally spoke: "This time, we will refine the Pigu Dan!"

Fasting Pill!

Hearing that Du Gui Rong had finally decided to refine the elixir, most people wore strange expressions on their faces, because this fasting pill was simply too low-level.

Jiang Yun, however, was indifferent. "Sure! Master Du, please go ahead!"

In fact, no one knows this: Although the fasting pill is practically worthless, for Du Gui-rong it's the elixir he refines most often.

Over time, he also developed his own unique experience and skills in refining the Fasting Pill. The pills he refined were extremely potent, even reaching the Earth Grade level on occasion.

Therefore, he would propose concocting the fasting pill.

Since Ginger Cloud agreed, Du Gui Rong was not being polite. He took out two more piles of medicinal herbs, gave one pile to Ginger Cloud, and kept the other for himself.

The refining process wasn't complicated either, still much like before. And Gingercloud also realized that this Du Gui Rong was indeed very skilled at refining the Fasting Pill, because there were far fewer signs of flaws.

In just a moment, under the pungent aroma of medicine, Du Gui Rong completed his alchemy. When the furnace lid was opened and only one pill was taken out, even Du Gui Rong's own palm trembled slightly.

After a long time, he suddenly spread his palms open and shouted in a hoarse voice: "The Earth Rank!"

Sub basement!

These two words instantly brought a heavy sense of pressure and deep shock to everyone around!

Out of them all, few had even seen a Tier 1 elixir, let alone witnessed someone personally refining one.

Even Ginger Cloud nodded in agreement, saying, "Master Du is truly brilliant!"

"Enough talk, it's your turn! Or, just concede!" Holding the Tier 1 Emptiness Pill in his hand, Du Guirong once again regained a confident and arrogant expression, feeling like he had already won.

Let me try saying it again!

Gingercloud also began to get busy. He was still clumsy, still using the stone pot as an alchemy furnace, and still finishing the concoction in the same amount of time.

Taking out two still-hot qinggu dan from the stone pot, Jiang Yun presented them to Du Guirong's face, a little embarrassedly saying: "Tianjie, two."

First published on the Traditional Chinese Novel Networkof Ginger Cloud's name, everyone except Su Huai'an was seeing her for the first time.At first glance, most people's faces immediately showed disappointment, and some even shook their heads with a hint...
