Grandnephew is mighty!
When Zhu Wanzi successfully refined three kinds of pills, there was only one thought in Zhu Wanziâs mind. For an old lady who became an apprentice alchemist at the age of 50, Zhu Wanzi, who became an apprentice alchemist at the age of 17, was really a monster.
No, even a monster wouldnât be this exaggerated!
It was said that Peak Master Zhu Chuanhuai had also become an apprentice apothecary at the age of twenty. Zhu Wuwan had become an apprentice apothecary three years earlier than him.
Zhu Wanzi believed that even Zhu Chuanhuai wouldnât reject such a proud son of heaven and might even take him as his personal disciple.
Therefore, Zhu Wanzi brought Zhu Wuan to find Zhu Chuanhuai excitedly. After going through several checkpoints and reporting several times, they finally saw Zhu Chuanhuai, who had just refined a low-grade superior-grade spirit pill.
Zhu Chuanhuai was nearly two hundred years old, a little older than Zhu Wanzi. He looked like a middle-aged man with a mustache.
When he saw Zhu Wanzi and Zhu Wuyan, and heard Zhu Wanzi boasting about Zhu Wuyanâs talent in alchemy, he didnât feel ecstatic as Zhu Wanzi had expected. Instead, he frowned.
â He was already a top-notch apothecary when he was in the mortal world. Thatâs why he became an apprentice apothecary in just a few months. Although his aptitude is not bad, there are still a few in our Huoyuan Peak. â
â Itâs a pity that my cultivation foundation has been destroyed, and I wonât be able to step into the Foundation Establishment stage in this lifetime. That means that Iâll be a low-level middle-level alchemist for the rest of my life, and I wonât be able to become a low-level high-level alchemist. After all, to become a low-level high-level alchemist, oneâs own strength is also very important. At the very least, one has to be a Foundation Establishment cultivator. â
âWhat a pity. However, your talent is not bad. You are qualified to become my in-name disciple. Zhu Wanzi, you have also made a contribution. I wonât punish you in the future. However, your grandnephew will stay here to cultivate alchemy and become an official alchemist as soon as possible.â
âThisâ¦â Zhu Wanzi felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over her, and she said hesitantly, ââ But Peak Master, youâre able to become an apprentice apothecary at the age of seventeen, and you should be able to become an official apothecary by the age of thirty. Such talent can be considered in the top ten of our Hundred Poisons Sect. Even if you canât become your personal disciple, an official disciple should be able to do it, right? â
âWhich of my official disciples isnât a Foundation Establishment cultivator?â Zhu Chuanhuai shook his head.
âThisâ¦â Zhu Wanzi was speechless for a moment, butâ¦However, as an in-name disciple, doesnât that mean that he doesnât have the right to learn the Hundred Poison Pill Solution? In that case, it will be much more difficult for him to become an official alchemist.â
Zhu Chuanhuai pondered.
Zhu Wanzi quickly said, â Peak Master, Wu Yan is also your direct descendant. You canât possibly let him study those difficult and powerful alchemy books, right? If thatâs the case, when will he become an official alchemist? Even if he is lucky enough to become an official alchemist, it will be difficult for him to advance further in the future. â
âIn that caseâ¦Then Iâll make an exception and pass the Hundred Poison Pill Solution to him.â âBut I donât have time to explain it to him. He has to figure it out himself,â Zhu Chuanhuai said after a moment of hesitation.
â Thatâs enough, â Zhu Wanzi said. â Thank you, Peak Master. â
When he left Zhu Chuanhuaiâs residence, Zhu Wuwan had a hand-copied copy of the Hundred Poisons Elixir Solution in his hand. It was also the number one alchemy manual in the Hundred Poisons Sect.
Perhaps she was afraid that Zhu Wanwan would be discouraged, so Zhu Wanzi comforted her, ââ Iâm fine. Actually, your alchemy talent is really not bad. To be able to cultivate your alchemy skills to such a level while entering the path with martial arts, you can definitely be called a genius of alchemy. Itâs just that the peak master didnât consider this point and couldnât recognize talents. â
Zhu Wanzi sighed, ââSigh, if you can reveal your true strength and let him know that your cultivation foundation is fine, you will definitely become his official disciple this time, or even his personal disciple.â
âThank you for your trouble.â Zhu Wuan did not care about this. Compared to the official disciples and direct disciples who had more restrictions, he preferred to become an in-name disciple.â My comprehension ability is not bad. Itâs not difficult to comprehend this Hundred Poison Pill Solution. Even without the guidance of the Peak Master, Iâll be able to comprehend it very quickly. Itâs fine if I canât become a personal disciple. â
Zhu Wanzi shook his head and smiled bitterly, ââThere is a difference between being taught and not being taught.â
Zhu Wanzi didnât comment on it. If he didnât have enough talent and comprehension and the special encounter system, he might agree with what Zhu Wanzi said. However, even without Zhu Chuanhuaiâs personal guidance, he could still master the Hundred Poison Elixir Solution and even surpass his master.
Of course, this didnât mean that in-name disciples couldnât receive Zhu Chuanhuaiâs guidance. The main thing was that in-name disciples could only receive Zhu Chuanhuaiâs guidance once in a while, and it was the kind where many in-name disciples received it at the same time, just like the teachers on Earth.
Naturally, Zhu Wanhao wasnât very interested in this. Instead of that, he might as well spend some breakthrough stones to upgrade the Hundred Poison Elixir Solution.
After returning to the underground fire cave where he was working and finishing his work for the day, Zhu Wuwan began to comprehend the Hundred Poison Elixir Solution.
This Hundred Poisons Pill Solution was indeed extensive and profound. It was indeed worthy of being the treasure of the Hundred Poisons Sect. It recorded in detail the method to advance from an apprentice alchemist to a low-grade top-grade alchemist. Moreover, there were all kinds of strange pill formulas, many of which had great practical value.
It could be said that as long as he could master the Hundred Poison Elixir Solution and raise it to the point of perfection, Zhu Wuwan would be able to successfully become a low-grade top-grade alchemist. He was only half a step away from becoming a middle-grade alchemist.
Even Zhu Chuanhuai had only cultivated the Elixir Solution of Hundred Poisons to the late stage and was still a long way from perfection. Even so, Zhu Chuanhuai could be considered a low-level top-grade alchemist. One could imagine how powerful the Elixir Solution of Hundred Poisons was.
After spending several hours, Zhu Wuyang had comprehended the Hundred Poison Pill Solution and looked at the breakthrough stones needed to improve. Perhaps it was because Zhu Wuyang had already mastered alchemy that was close to low-level middle-grade, so he did not need many breakthrough stones to improve to Small Success. There were only a few dozen.
At this moment, Zhu Wuyang already had close to a thousand free breakthrough stones. These few breakthrough stones were just a piece of cake for him.
After a moment of consideration, Zhu Wuwan spent dozens of Free Breakthrough Stones to raise the Hundred Poison Elixir Solution to the Small Success Realm.
With the infusion of the Breakthrough Stone, all kinds of experience and techniques related to alchemy in the Hundred Poison Elixir Solution swarmed over and fused into Zhu Wuyangâs memories. Zhu Wuyang seemed to have personally immersed himself in the Hundred Poison Elixir Solution for years and completely grasped it.
Even the practical experience and techniques were in his memory. Zhu Wuyang only needed to do some practical work to fully master them.
