Meng Yirou saw with her own eyes the process of Gu Heng refining the elixir, and when the elixir was ready, there came out three pure eighth-grade elixirs without any impurities.
Even just by watching him make medicine, her cultivation and medicine-making skills improved by leaps and bounds.
In just a few days, Meng Yirou became the youngest seventh-grade alchemist in the world, and her cultivation had already broken through to the fourth level of the Out-of-Body Realm. If she could gain so much just by watching him refine medicine once, then if he could really teach her how to refine medicine...
Meng Yirou didn't dare to think further.
She is the disciple of the Palace Master of the Qingyi Palace. Now that she has become his disciple, she can no longer look for another good teacher halfway.
but.
Meng Yirou still wanted to see Mr. Gu again, even if only once.
It's a pity that she once sent people to secretly return to Qingmu City, but the answer she got was that Gu's clinic was no longer there. It was said that Mr. Gu sold the clinic to a mortal and then disappeared without a trace.
She knew she couldn't find him.
If such a powerful predecessor wanted to disappear and live in seclusion, how difficult would it be to find him in this vast world?
Although she felt very regretful, Meng Yirou couldn't forget what she had seen. When she returned to the Riyan Dynasty, she still had a desire to see Gu Heng again.
"Sister Yirou, you are here too?"
A crisp voice brought Meng Yirou back to her thoughts.
When she looked up, her expression didn't look particularly good.
The person who greeted her was a young man.
He was wearing a leather jacket that was quite rugged, with a long sword on his waist, ancient brown skin, and a half-gold mask on his face.
"Qi Yuan...you are here too."
Meng Yirou's face was cold, and when she saw the young man named Qi Yuan, she adopted a distant attitude.
"This East Border is not far from Mobei, but it is really far from the Western Regions. Your Qingyi Palace must have paid a considerable price to send you here in such a short time."
Qi Yuan had a frivolous smile on his face. Seeing that Meng Yirou was deliberately distancing herself from him, he just stood there.
"This has nothing to do with your 'Mobei Medicine School'."
She responded coldly.
Although she had expected to meet such a mortal enemy, Meng Yirou was still not happy when she really met him.
"Golden-faced Pill King" Qi Yuan.
Like her, he is an alchemist.
But Qi Yuan was born in the "Mobei Medicine School"...
Everyone in the world knows that the Qingyi Palace is the holy land of alchemy in the world, and it is fully worthy of the title of a supernatural force. However, no one can ignore the "Mobei Medicine School" which is almost on par with the Qingyi Palace, and although it does not have the title of a supernatural force, it has its own power.
The Mobei Medicine School is not a sect, but a way of refining medicine that is unconventional and evil in the eyes of the Qingyi Palace!
This is related to the Mobei land.
At the end of the prehistoric era, the five realms were at war, and the creatures of the five realms invaded other worlds, causing chaos.
At that time, Mobei was turned upside down by creatures from the underworld and the demon world.
After the passage to the five realms was broken and the chaos ended.
Mobei still left behind an unhealable "scar" that was completely engraved on the Xuantian Realm!
That is the "Dajiyuan" located in Mobei!
It is said that the Great Abyss is filled with the corpses of creatures from the underworld and the demon world. The evil aura will never dissipate. No grass or trees grow within a thousand miles of the Great Abyss. The most terrifying thing is the "Great Abyss Demon"!
Every once in a while, the alien demons born from the Great Abyss would crawl out, with the number ranging from nearly a million to tens of millions!
They have no intelligence, only instincts. When they emerge from the Abyss, they kill all living things they can see, carrying with them the foul and poisonous aura of pollution and trampling on flowers, plants, and trees...
so.
And in order to deal with the chaos of the alien demons in the abyss.
What came into being was the "Zhenyuan Palace" of the Mobei war army, which has been passed down since the primitive times.The strange demons from the abyss are also something that can be used.
Therefore, some alchemists began to try to take an interest in the Abyss Demons... In the end, they used this evil creature that was full of poisonous things to "cultivate" different medicinal plants, even livestock, or deliberately pollute people...
Eventually, the Mobei alchemists formed their own faction.
but.
Except for them, all the alchemists in the world did not approve of this practice. For a time, the "Mobei Medicine School" was even regarded as an evil practice and everyone wanted to kill it.
But as time went by, the "Mobei Medicine School" became increasingly larger.
Until now.
Although the Mobei Medicine School is not considered a sect, they have a huge influence that can compete with the Qingyi Palace.
The best among them is the famous "Mobei Medicine King"!
Together with Master Yao, the Palace Master of the Qingyi Palace, he is a top-notch alchemy master of the ninth rank!
And his disciple was none other than the "Golden-faced Medicine King" Qi Yuan in front of Meng Yirou.
The relationship between the two sides is not good, and it started a long time ago. Although the Mobei School of Medicine does not have a very good reputation, the Mobei alchemists have produced many excellent "magic medicines".
Although the most famous thing about the Mobei Medicine School is still the "poison" that kills people without blinking an eye, and can even kill immortals...
after all.
Apart from poison, what else can be researched about a monster like the Abyss Demon, which can kill grass and trees on the roadside just by walking?
"I heard that this secret palace is a relic left by an immortal. If there is really an opportunity to become an immortal inside, then we must not miss it."
Qi Yuan has a cheerful personality and speaks directly.
"Sister Yirou, you can team up with me. You are still better than me in refining medicine, but in combat..."
He patted the long sword at his waist.
"I'm still better at it."
"No need, I'm used to being alone." Meng Yirou refused with a cold face.
"…You rejected it really quickly."
Qi Yuan smiled without changing his expression.
The people around were also snickering, but after Qi Yuan suddenly cast his calm gaze towards the casual cultivator who spoke, the casual cultivator dared not laugh anymore.
"Then, see you later."
Qi Yuan turned and left. Meng Yirou stared at his back and curled her lips.
This guy is interested in her.
He didn't hide it at all. Whenever they met, he would basically say these words to get close to her.
But Meng Yirou didn't like him at all.
This person is not only ugly, but also has a problematic character.
"...Well!"
At this time.
The casual cultivator who was chuckling just now suddenly turned purple in the face and knelt on the ground in pain. Meng Yirou looked over and saw that he suddenly vomited a large number of smelly poisonous insects from his mouth, and blood was flowing from all his orifices.
Finally, the belly suddenly exploded!
Black blood was all over the ground, and poisonous insects crawled out of it, causing many people nearby to retreat away.
This casual cultivator has reached the sixth level of the Out-of-Body Stage.
But why did Qi Yuan let him die so miserably?
Meng Yirou frowned.
She couldn't tell at all how Qi Yuan had done it just now.
