Chapter 244: The Perfect Essence Again!

“Since Elder Wu has said so, I really can’t think of a reason to refuse.”

Gu Xi thought for a moment and nodded with a smile.

Although he was not very interested in this so-called Spirit-chasing competition, if he could obtain the Snowfall Fungusfrom it and completely recover his strength, then it was very necessary for him to make a trip.

Moreover, it was only to give him a name in the Medicine King Valley in exchange. It would not have any restrictions on his personal freedom or other aspects.

“This is very good, very good.” Wu Nanshan nodded excitedly and secretly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

If the Medicine King Valley could have an in-name disciple like Gu Xi, it would also be the greatest honor of their Medicine King Valley since its establishment!

If Gu Xi did not agree, he had to make him agree no matter how hard he tried!

As if afraid that Gu Xi would go back on his words, Wu Nanshan turned his gaze and looked outside the door. He said in a deep voice, “Go and get the Spirit Purple Ganoderma, Cold Heaven Kylin Fruit… All these spirit herbs! Remember, the year of these spirit herbs must be the highest!”

Wu Nanshan said the names of a bunch of spirit herbs in one breath.

Beside him, Gu Xi’s expression did not change, but he secretly remembered this favor in his heart.

Although he did not know much about these spirit herbs, just by hearing their names, one could tell how precious they were.

In just a moment, a disciple of the Medicine King Valley took all these spirit herbs.

Gu Xi took a glance and found that this person was Cao Hua.

“Next, I have something important to discuss with the distinguished guest. You go out and seal this place. Do not allow anyone to approach this place.” Wu Nanshan gave some simple instructions.

“I will obey.” Cao Hua nodded. He took a deep look at Gu Xi before turning around and leaving.

Just as he walked out of the main door, his expression instantly darkened. He was extremely jealous in his heart!

Why did the person who came out from a mere Moyu Tower have such peerless alchemy skills!?

Why was it that the person who could sit in front of the Valley Master and chat happily was not me!?

Why did the Valley Master give all these precious spirit herbs to a person whom he had just met for the first time?!

Cao Hua clenched his teeth tightly, and even his expression was a little distorted.

He was the first disciple of the Medicine King Valley, the person who had the most hope of becoming the next Valley Master!

Gu Xi’s appearance had completely covered up his limelight.

If this continued, it was likely that this candidate for the Valley Master would be replaced by a stranger.

“So frustrating!”

After a low roar, Cao Hua’s distorted face returned to normal. He also sealed this place according to Wu Nanshan’s instructions and did not do anything out of the ordinary.

He understood that now… was not the time.

Even though he had only met Gu Xi today, he already hated him to the bone in his heart.

On the other hand, Gu Xi in the room did not know that he had become Cao Hua’s target of hatred.

At this moment, there were nearly ten jade boxes placed in front of him.

Each jade box contained a precious spirit herb of excellent quality and age!

Any one of these spiritual herbs placed outside was enough to cause people to scramble for them!

It was not an exaggeration to say that there was no market for them.

“Thank you very much, Elder Wu,” Gu Xi said with a serious expression.

Even though he had not opened the jade box yet, just the faint fragrance of the medicine wafting out from it had already made him feel refreshed.

“It’s a small matter.” Elder Wu waved his hand and then opened the jade boxes in front of him one by one. He then continued with a little embarrassment, “But the matter of refining the essence will have to be done by you yourself.”

It was not that Wu Nanshan was too lazy to refine it, but in front of Gu Xi, he really did not have the nerve to force himself to refine it. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be like showing off his skills in front of an expert?

Moreover, the higher the degree of refining the essence of the spirit medicine, the stronger the medicinal effect would be. The stronger the medicinal effect would be, then naturally, the benefits to Gu Xi’s injuries would be self-evident.

Gu Xi also understood this principle. He smiled and flipped his right hand, and the Mother Cauldron that was covered in dark green rust appeared once again. After that, he threw all the spiritual medicines into the cauldron.

Seeing this scene, Wu Nanshan’s old face that had been through many hardships twitched.

These were nearly ten spiritual medicines!

Refining them together like this, are you sure?!

Wu Nanshan opened his mouth, wanting to advise Gu Xi to be more careful. However, in the end, he did not open his mouth. These spiritual medicines were one stalk short of one stalk. If one was careless and all of them were destroyed here, it would really be enough to make his heart ache for a while.

Shaking his head helplessly, Wu Nanshan began to observe quietly from the side. If he could learn anything during this process, it would be enough for him to take another big step on the path of medicine refinement!

[Ding! Spirit herbs, Spirit Purple Ganoderma, Cold Heaven Kylin Fruit, Golden Crow Ganoderma Grass detected…]

[Total impurities 84652]

[Would the Host like to proceed with the extraction?]

“Extraction.”

[Extraction in progress.]

At the same time, the extraction of the spirit herbs had also begun.

In the cauldron, the spirit herbs were gradually turning into liquid. The tens of thousands of impurities within were being precisely and unerringly removed by the System.

The time for one incense stick to burn passed quietly.

Wu Nanshan watched intently. He did not even dare to blink his eyes, afraid that he would miss out on some important details because of this.

[Congratulations, Host, for the completion of the extraction.]

As the System’s voice rang out once again, a rich medicinal fragrance wafted out from the cauldron.

“This… is it over just like that?” Wu Nanshan’s eyes widened as he spoke with an incredulous expression.

According to his estimation, it would take at least half a day to extract close to ten stalks of spirit herbs at the same time. However, Gu Xi’s speed had increased by more than several times.

“It’s already been refined.” Gu Xi nodded.

With a wave of his large hand, drops of spirit herbs essence of different colors flew out from the cauldron and were kept in the jade bottle.

“Unbelievable, it’s simply too unbelievable.” Wu Nanshan inspected the jade bottle one by one, his face becoming more and more shocked.

As expected, these were all perfectly refined essences!

From this, it could be seen that Gu Xi’s alchemy skills were more than several times better than his. Moreover, after observing for so long, Wu Nanshan did not see the slightest fluster in Gu Xi’s alchemy process. He could not see where the true limit of Gu Xi’s power.

This young man in front of him must be roped in!

Even if he could not be roped in, he had to be on good terms with him. He absolutely could not offend him!

This was what Wu Nanshan was thinking in his heart at that moment.

“Since the extraction has been completed, there’s no time to lose. Let’s begin.”

Forcefully suppressing the shock in his heart, Wu Nanshan said with a serious expression, “What you need to sit on is to stabilize your mind. Later on, I will use my spiritual power to guide these essences into your body one by one. Don’t have the slightest bit of resistance. Under my guidance, they will begin to gradually warm up and repair your injured meridians and Dantian.”

“Then let’s begin.” Gu Xi nodded. Without hesitation, he immediately sat down cross-legged.
