Chương 8: Gu Clan's Alchemy Genius
Gu Yao pondered for a moment and then called over one of his confidants. "Go to the northwest continent immediately."
The confidant looked up with some doubt but saw the intense murderous intent in the Ancient Demon's eyes.
"Find Xiao Yan and eliminate that rubbish!"
The confidant, frightened by the powerful aura and gloomy eyes, broke into a cold sweat and quickly nodded in agreement.
The assassins targeting Xiao Yan were soon dispatched.
Meanwhile, Gu Fei returned to the top of the mountain.
After arriving at his residence, he rested for a while before deciding to refine a seventh-grade pill.
A seventh-grade elixir is so remarkable that it would amaze many alchemists. Gu Fei was only sixteen years old, yet he could refine a seventh-grade elixir, a feat that many alchemists might never achieve in their lifetime. Any single seventh-grade elixir could fetch an exorbitant price at auction.
Many seventh-grade elixirs are already priceless, and releasing one can stir a storm of controversy.
Previously, the system had upgraded Gu Fei's alchemy skills to level seven, allowing him to master numerous seventh-grade pill recipes.
Gu Fei hadn't slept the previous night and had been contemplating more than just Xun'er's marriage. With many seventh-grade elixirs available, it was only natural for him to start refining them.
This time, he aimed to refine an elixir called Tihaidan, which could elevate his cultivation level to the Dou Zong stage by one star. Tihaidan is in high demand because it improves the Dou Zong stage by one star without side effects. The elixir does not cause an unstable foundation, and relying on just one pill can directly enhance a Dou Zong expert's cultivation.
Even for a seventh-grade alchemist, refining this elixir would be time-consuming and could potentially fail.
Gu Fei considered refining this seventh-grade elixir as a way to pass the time. The one-month cooling-off period for divorce would end when the elixir was ready.
He set up restrictions outside the house to prevent any disturbances during this critical period, not wanting anything to delay the alchemy process.
As days passed, Gu Fei remained secluded, and the discussions about him and Xun'er faded. Without the protagonists present, gossip dwindled, and daily practice kept everyone busy.
On the mountaintop, Gu Fei sat quietly by the window with his eyes closed. The alchemy furnace before him glowed faintly, and a subtle medicinal fragrance filled the room.
After half a month, Gu Fei suddenly opened his eyes. The sky above the mountain had changed drastically. While the area beyond the peaks was clear and sunny, dark clouds and raging pill thunder loomed over the mountaintop. The pill thunder gathered rapidly in the clouds before striking down with lightning speed.
The sound and impact alarmed many nearby ancient tribe members, drawing them to witness the event. Among them were several alchemists.
One alchemist, well-regarded among the younger generation, was stunned by the sight. He gasped in disbelief, "This is the pill thunder that appears when a seventh-grade pill is produced!"
Although only a few alchemists were present, they understood the significance of a seventh-grade elixir.
A girl expressed her admiration, saying, "I never imagined that Brother Gu Fei's cultivation progress would surpass ordinary levels, and his alchemy skills are so high!"
"Yes, Brother Gu Fei is only sixteen years old... Miss Xun'er really shouldn't have acted as she did!"
A respected member of the ancient clan expressed regret, noting that Miss Xun'er, a talented individual, could have helped elevate the Gu clan further with Gu Fei. However, she was now involved with another man.
Most discussions were admiring, and these feelings of admiration and envy were absorbed by Gu Fei's system.
[Gu Yao produces admiration emotion, emotion value increases by 1]
[Gu Fei generate worship emotion, emotion value increases by 1]
[Gu Yaqin generates admiration emotion, emotion value increases by 1]
…
The system collected all these emotional values, and Gu Fei listened with satisfaction as his emotion points increased. Though small, these trickles added up over time.
The last notification made him smile.
[Xun'er becomes depressed, emotional value increases by 100]
Xun'er had arrived among the crowd without being noticed. Her presence was revealed only by the system.
She looked up at the mountaintop, reflecting on her situation. If Gu Fei hadn't mentioned divorce, would she have been the object of everyone's envy rather than their pity?
Xun'er, though not fond of Gu Fei, admired strength and had come to witness the high-level elixir's production. Her father, Gu Yuan, had been furious and placed her under house arrest for a month, allowing her freedom only when Gu Fei visited again.
Deep down, Xun'er blamed Gu Fei. When she learned of the high-level elixir production, she sneaked out while Gu Yuan was not watching, driven by excitement over the prospect of another powerful elixir-maker.
She was surprised to find that the seventh-grade elixir was being made by Gu Fei.
