In Gu Jian's view, he, the Zhang family and Lord Mo Chen were no longer on the same page.
Since there was an opportunity to kill Pang Shun, he should seize it to avoid long nights and endless dreams.
As for Pang Shun being the youngest alchemy master in the kingdom, that was because he hadn’t met him Gu Jian!
"Your Highness Princess, Mr. Gu and I are going to make an oath of heaven, and I ask you to be a witness." Pang Shun turned to Xiao Hongchen and said.
"Gu Jian, have you really decided?" Xiao Hongchen was still a little worried.
According to Pang Shun, the key to refining Yin-Yang Yuan Dan is the Yin-Yang alchemy technique. What if Gu Jian just happens to know this alchemy technique, but his alchemy attainment itself is not as good as Pang Shun's?
After all, Pang Shun is the number one alchemy genius in the kingdom and should not be underestimated.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I am confident that I can win against an arrogant guy like him."
Gu Jian's tone was pertinent.
Looking at Gu Jian's firm and confident eyes, Xiao Hongchen sighed softly: "In that case, you can make an oath to heaven."
The so-called Heavenly Dao Oath is the most solemn oath, related to the martial arts path of a warrior.
If you violate the oath of heaven, you will be punished by heaven. In the least case, your martial arts will be cut off, in the worst case, you will even breed inner demons, and you will be miserable!
"Gu Jian, you take yourself too seriously. You can't beat me in alchemy."
Pang Shun smiled half-heartedly, and together with Gu Jian, they made a heavenly oath to gamble their lives.
"Hongye, let's go and see how my brother crushes that one-armed waste."
After making the oath of heaven, Gu Jian took Gu Hongye's hand and walked towards Piaoxue Tower.
"How unreasonable..."
Pang Shun was so angry that his teeth itched.
…
But when Gu Jian and Pang Shun walked into Piaoxue Building and arrived at the alchemy room, countless alchemists were already surrounding them.
"Humph, there are so many people witnessing it, I wonder if you will die then!"
Pang Shun looked gloomy and quickly changed into loose clothes from Najie to cover his broken arm.
At this time, the alchemist who came to join in the fun had already started talking about it.
"What's going on? Someone actually wants to learn alchemy with Master Pang Shun. He's overestimating his abilities."
"It's not just a competition, I heard that guy even bet his life with Master Pang Shun."
"Betting on your life? Isn't that asking for death? Master Pang Shun is the number one alchemy genius in the kingdom, and he may become an alchemy master in the future."
"There really is everyone."
"Shut up, I don't understand. You know nothing! Mr. Gu can even refine the Yin Yang Yuan Dan that His Royal Highness needs. How can he not be Pang Shun's opponent?"
Mu Long couldn't bear to listen to these people's discussions and roared angrily.
"Who dares to be so presumptuous and dare to call Master Pang Shun by his first name? It's simply... Oh, it turns out to be Master Mu Long. What I just said was nonsense. Don't take it to heart."
Many alchemists retorted, but when they saw that the speaker was Mu Long, they shut up on the spot.
Master Mu Long is also a master of alchemy and has been famous for a long time, so he naturally has the confidence to say this.
"Huh, I'm just relying on my age and relying on my old age."
Pang Shun was very disdainful of this. Listening to the praises of others, his chin almost went up to the sky.
Gu Jian's expression remained unchanged.
He didn't care about reputation, he just wanted to defeat Pang Shun as soon as possible and watch him die.
"What happened?"
At this moment, a slightly serious voice came from outside the door.
I saw an old man with gray hair wearing a yellow monk's robe walking in quickly.
"It's the Great Elder!"
Everyone in the house was shocked.
When they saw the visitor, Mu Long and Pang Shun also saluted, "I have met the great elder."
The person who came was none other than the Great Elder Yuan Lie, the leader of the three alchemy masters in Piaoxue Tower.
"Mu Long, Pang Shun, what are you doing?" Yuan Lie asked curiously.
Seeing this, Yuan Lie told him that Gu Jian was going to compete with Pang Shun in elixir refining.
"Betting on your life?"
Yuan Lie was shocked.
He came back this time because he heard that Mu Long had brought Gu Jian back to the royal capital, so he wanted to come back and see the young man who sold them several ancient elixir prescriptions.
After all, the elixirs made based on those elixir recipes were sold out in the royal capital!
But Yuan Lie didn't expect that Gu Jian would gamble his life with Pang Shun in their building just after he came back.
"Great Elder, that boy and I have made an oath of heaven, and we must compete today."
Seeing that Yuan Lie seemed to admire Gu Jian, Pang Shun said angrily.
"Great Elder, Mr. Gu is my distinguished guest. Please ensure that this competition is fair."
Xiao Hongchen also cleared his throat.
She didn't know about Gu Jian selling Piaoxuelou's alchemy formula, and subconsciously thought that Yuan Lie would favor Pang Shun, after all, the latter was the master of alchemy in Piaoxuelou.
Mu Long also reminded: "Great Elder, Mr. Gu refined the Yin Yang Yuan Dan for His Royal Highness the Princess, which restored the reputation of our Piaoxue Tower."
"What?" Yuan Lie was shocked again and looked at Gu Jian in disbelief.
He naturally knew about Yin Yang Yuan Dan, and when Pang Shun couldn't refine it, he also tried to refine it.
But he discovered that unless he used the legendary Yin-Yang alchemy technique or reached the level of a fifth-level alchemy master, it would be impossible to refine the Yin-Yang Yuan Dan.
In this case, Gu Jian may not only know a few ancient alchemy recipes, but he may also be an alchemy wizard.
Thinking of this, the First Elder felt very helpless. Whether it was Gu Jian or Pang Shun, whoever died would be a loss to Piaoxue Tower.
However, the two of them had even made an oath of heaven, and he couldn't stop them.
"In that case, let me preside over this alchemy competition." Yuan Lie said seriously.
"I will choose an ancient elixir recipe, give you the same materials and medicinal cauldron, and judge the outcome based on the quality of the elixir."
"no problem."
Gu Jian and Pang Shun agreed immediately.
Yuan Lie thought about it for a moment, wrote down two identical prescriptions in front of everyone, and handed them to the two people.
In order to be fair and impartial, he specially took out an ancient alchemy recipe that was definitely difficult for alchemy masters.
Gu Jian got the prescription, took a closer look, and raised the corners of his mouth.
"Wu Nian Tong Xuan Dan!"
At the same time, Pang Shun and many alchemists who were watching took a breath of cold air.
The Wu Nian Tong Xuan Pill is a very precious fourth-level elixir.
Its main function is very mysterious, and it can increase the warrior's understanding by 10% with a high probability.
You must know that comprehension is very important for a warrior. It can speed up the warrior's understanding of mental methods and martial arts, and it can also affect the warrior's understanding of the path of martial arts.
It is no exaggeration to say that among the many factors that can determine how far a warrior can go in martial arts, the importance of understanding can be ranked in the top three.
And elixirs that improve understanding, even if it only improves by a tiny bit, are the most refined of all types of elixirs.
That's not to mention the Wu Nian Tong Xuan Pill, which has a chance of improving one's understanding by 10%. The pill's success rate is horribly low. Although it is only a fourth-level elixir, many fifth-level alchemy masters may not be able to successfully refine it.
However, to Gu Jian, who has the memory of Ling Tian Sword Emperor, this is nothing.
As long as he has more precious elixirs and better quality flames, he can even refine the sixth-level Divine Thought Tongxuan Pill that can double his understanding!
On the other side, Pang Shun smiled coldly, looking at Gu Jian as if he were looking at a dead person.
Because Wu Nian Tong Xuan Dan does not use the long-lost skills of Yin Yang Alchemy, and pays more attention to the experience of alchemy and the control of fire. In his opinion, Gu Jian is only seventeen or eighteen years old, which skill can be compared to
