Chapter 274 Guidance

After half an hour of refining, Xiao Zhen slowly exhaled, looked at the several pills in the furnace, and shook his head somewhat dissatisfied.

"Although these pills have been made, their quality is just average. I don't know what the reason is?"

Yao Chen stroked the beard that he had transformed with his soul power, and after observing it for a while, he laughed and said:

"You did a pretty good job, kid. You just overlooked some unimportant steps this time, so you can't push these pills to the highest quality!"

Yao Chen then explained in great detail the small mistakes Xiao Zhen made during the process, which made Xiao Yan, who was standing next to him, feel a little confused.

As for Xiaozhi, the kid has been fast asleep for a long time. As for refining the elixir, let's wait until he wakes up!

After listening to Yao Chen's explanation, Xiao Zhen felt as if his mind had suddenly been opened. Many things that he didn't understand before suddenly became clear to him.

Yao Chen clapped his hands and said with a hearty smile: "I haven't made medicine for a long time. Now that my soul power has recovered a lot, let's demonstrate it on the spot, so you can have a direct understanding!"

Xiao Zhen nodded, put down a portion of medicinal materials on the spot, then stepped back to the side of the two boys, his eyes focused, carefully watching how the legendary alchemist operated.

Yao Chen first smiled confidently, and then the white flame that appeared in his palm was full of vitality, like a dancing elf.

Xiao Yan originally wanted to see what this old man was capable of, but suddenly he felt as if the surroundings had gone from summer to winter.

Xiaozhi, who was originally sleeping soundly, couldn't help but sneeze and woke up in a daze, not knowing what had happened.

"Haha, sorry, sorry, I haven't played with fire for a while, and I forgot that there are two little friends here!"

Yao Chen first laughed awkwardly a few times, then increased the input of soul power and began to control the strange fire in his hand.

As the white flames began to stabilize, Xiao Yan felt the temperature begin to rise.

Xiao Zhen touched Xiao Zhi's head and released a gentle Dou Qi. His silly son had not yet practiced Dou Qi, unlike Xiao Yan, who had practiced for more than a year and had already cultivated the second stage of Dou Qi.

Yao Chen was also familiar with the process. Although he had never seen the recipe, Xiao Zhen had already demonstrated it to him.

Xiao Zhen carefully watched Yao Chen's every move. Whether it was his skillful use of the strange fire or his grasp of timing, everything seemed very natural.

"Amazing! You are worthy of being the legendary ninth-grade alchemist. Just based on your calm and composed demeanor, you are far better than a half-baked sixth-grade alchemist like me!"

Xiao Zhen expressed his sincere emotion that he was still too young and needed to learn more in the future.

After only an incense stick of time, Yao Chen had produced the elixir, which was glowing brightly and its fragrance filled the entire alchemy room.

Xiao Zhen couldn't wait to walk forward and look at the five neatly arranged pills, all of which were of top quality without exception.

"Senior Yao Chen is indeed amazing. It seems that I still have a lot to learn!"

Xiao Zhen cupped his hands and sighed helplessly.

Yao Chen, on the other hand, did not say anything. He just stroked his white beard and pretended to be a master.

Xiao Yan also opened his eyes wide. He didn't expect that his second uncle, who he knew was extremely good at alchemy, was actually far inferior to this old man who was obviously dead.

Looking at the impressive back of Yao Chen, Xiao Yan already had the idea of ​​becoming his disciple. Even if he couldn't become his disciple, then at least becoming his godfather would be fine!

As for the matter of having a godfather, Xiao Yan could guess without even thinking whether his biological father would agree or not. If he could have such a father, his father would definitely be the first to kowtow.

"Senior Yao Chen, when I was refining the sixth-grade elixir, I always felt that it was a little difficult to control. I wonder if you could explain it to me."

Listening to Xiao Zhen's greeting, Yao Chen smiled in his heart. Now the two of them were in a cooperative position. He needed the other party to provide medicinal materials to repair the soul, and the other party also needed his alchemy skills. Now if he showed his skills and demonstrated his strength, he could also increase his bargaining chips.

"Don't worry, my friend. We have already agreed on this matter. We will take care of this..."

"Wait a minute, old man, I want to be your disciple!"

Before Yao Chen could finish his words, he was interrupted by a childish voice beside him.

Xiao Zhen's eyelids twitched, and he poked Xiao Yan's little head and said, "Why are you making trouble here, kid? Go sit aside and don't disturb the senior."

Xiao Yan curled his lips and said seriously: "I'm not kidding, this old man's alchemy skills are so powerful, who wouldn't want to be his disciple?"

Yao Chen did not directly refuse, but just shook his head and smiled bitterly: "My little friend, I don't plan to accept a disciple now, you should find someone else!"

Yao Chen was stabbed in the back by his disciple whom he raised as his son. Now he is probably very hostile to disciples. Unless he can pass another three years of testing, it will be difficult for Xiao Yan to become his disciple.

Xiao Yan clenched his fists and said seriously, "I believe that as long as you do it, there is nothing you can't do. I will definitely take you as my master!"

When Yao Chen heard this, his eyes wavered for a moment, but quickly disappeared.

“Haha, since you are so confident, then let me take a look. If you can satisfy me in a few years, maybe I can consider it!”

After Yao Chen finished speaking, he turned into a wisp of white smoke and went into the black ring.

"Hey, wait!"

Xiao Zhen saw Yao Chen getting into the ring, and his face was full of helplessness. He hadn't gotten an answer to his question just now, so why did this old man run away!

"Alas!" Xiao Zhen sighed and said helplessly: "Ask next time, this old man can't get away anyway!"

Xiao Zhen was just about to ask the two boys to leave when he found that Xiao Zhi had fallen asleep again. His face suddenly turned black and he kept muttering to himself.

This is my son, he is only two years old, he will change in the future, as long as he is well trained, he will definitely become a useful person to the society.

After returning to the hall, Xiao Zhen called the others over and began distributing pills.

Xiao Zhen looked at the nine pills in his hand. Four of them were made by himself and were of average quality, while the other five were made by Yao Chen.

Without thinking, Xiao Zhen took out two high-grade pills and stuffed them into Xiao Zhi and Qing Lin's mouths. He then took out another three high-grade pills and handed them to Xiao Zhan.

"Brother, these three pills are of very high quality. Today, I think it's a bargain for those three boys in your family!"

Xiao Zhan took the three pills with great joy. He had never eaten such a high-level fifth-grade pill in his life. He was surprised to find that his three sons had gotten ahead of him.

After the five children took the pill, they felt a cool energy wandering around in their bodies. Each of them was emitting blue light and made comfortable sounds from time to time.

Xiao Lin patted Xiao Zhen on the shoulder and asked doubtfully, "Are your pills okay? After all, they are high-grade fifth-grade. If the medicinal properties are too strong, will they harm the children's bodies?"

Xiao Zhen shook his head and said firmly: "Dad, don't worry. Although I have never taken this kind of medicine, I am very familiar with its medicinal properties. Moreover, this medicine is very mild and is specially designed for children. There will be no problem."

The blue light lasted for a long time, actually reaching more than an hour. When the blue light dissipated, there were obvious changes in the children.

Xiao Yan clenched his palms and felt the Dou Qi in his body filling up, as if it had become purer and the quantity had also increased. It seemed that his cultivation had already broken through to the third stage of Dou Qi.

Xiao Zhen kept observing with his eyes, and Linghun Li was also constantly checking the bodies of the children. He smiled with a relaxed look on his face and said:

"Very good. The medicinal power has merged with your body. For a long time to come, they will nourish your body and allow you to cultivate much faster than your peers."
