"What do you need from your disciples, sir? Whatever the disciples can do, they must do their best!"
Shang Xia suppressed the joy in his heart and said to Gai Qingzhu solemnly.
Gai Qingzhu showed a look of satisfaction on his face and said: "Gai does need your help with something, but not now!"
Seeing the look of astonishment on Shang Xia's expression, Gai Qingzhu smiled slightly and said: "I'm afraid this matter will have to wait until you advance to the fourth level. Although there is no danger, it is definitely not an easy task, and it may even require you to do it.
It took a long time to do this.”
Now that things have come to this, what else can Shang Xia do? They can only solemnly agree to it.
Gai Qingzhu promised that on the summer solstice, he would take him to a lotus pond in the Two Realms War Zone to pick nine-leaf lotus flowers.
Only then did Shang Xia find out that Gai Qingzhu had actually discovered a pond full of spiritual lotuses. Now this pond was under the control of Tongyou Academy, but Gai Qingzhu had the priority to dispose of the spiritual lotuses in the pond.
.
After coming out of the secret room where Gai Qingzhu practiced in seclusion, although it would still take more than a month to get the nine-leaf lotus, Shang Xia was in a very happy mood at this time.
Now that the nine-leaf lotus has been found, the only spiritual object used by Shang Xia to prepare advanced potions is the jade crystal red grain rice cake.
Next, let’s look at the news from Yan Qi.
Perhaps in response to the saying "good things come in pairs", when Shang Xia had just returned to his family's residence from Gai Qingzhu, he learned that Yan Qi had returned.
Shang Xia quickly rushed to the main hall in three steps and two steps at a time, where he saw Shang Tai and Yan Qi chatting.
Seeing Shang Xia's return, Yan Qi quickly stood up to greet him.
Shang Xia waved his hand and asked directly: "How? Can I get the 'Jade Crystal Red Grain Rice' in exchange?"
Yan Qi's face was full of shame, and he handed back the spirit-sealing box containing the embers of Yuan Bone, and said: "My lord, please forgive me, there was a slight accident."
Shang Xia was greatly disappointed when he saw the spirit sealing box, but Yan Qi could not be blamed for this, so he forced a smile and said: "It doesn't matter, but what is going on?"
Yan Qidao: "I was about to report to the young master. I brought the 'Ember of Yuan Bone' with me. I originally thought that the exchange for 'Jade Crystal Red Grain Rice' was a sure thing, but when I was chatting with him, I accidentally made a mistake.
The young master let it slip that he had a fourth-level spiritual object, the 'Red Heart Pill Wood'. Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly became interested and gave up the 'Ember of Yuan Bone'.
Just bring it."
While listening, Shang Xia opened the spirit-sealing box, took a look at the "Original Bone Embers" inside, and said, "Why? As far as I know, although the 'Original Bone Embers' and the 'Red Heart Pill Wood' are both fourth-level spirits,
Things, but the value of the former is far greater than that of the latter!"
Yan Qi smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "The other party doesn't want to say more, and it's hard for my subordinates to ask more questions."
Shang Xia collected the embers of Yuan Bone, then took out another long spirit-sealing box containing the "Red Heart Pill Wood", and said: "Uncle Qi, are you dealing with people from the four major tribes?"
Yan Qi took the spirit sealing box, nodded and said: "Although the old patriarch is true to his subordinates' words, since the young master guessed it himself, it has nothing to do with his subordinates."
Shang Xia understood in his heart and said: "Uncle Qi, be careful in everything."
Yan Qi cupped his hands and said, "This time I will definitely bring back the jade crystal red rice cakes. Young master, please wait for the good news from me!"
After sending Yan Qi away, Shang Xia saw that Shang Tai was still there, so he asked: "Uncle Tai, how is the progress of advancing to the martial arts realm with Uncle Quan?"
Shang Tai shook his head and said: "Brother Quan has returned to Tong."
Youcheng, I don’t know the specific information, but before the retreat, he was quite confident. He said that he had accumulated a lot in the past few years and was 80% sure of advancing to the martial arts realm. Now he might have successfully advanced and is in retreat to consolidate his cultivation.
.”
Shang Xia nodded and said, "That's good!"
Shang Xia was about to leave, but suddenly he noticed that Shang Tai was hesitant to speak, as if he had something to hide.
"Uncle Tai, is there anything else?"
Shang Tai hesitated for a moment and then said: "Maybe I feel wrong, but judging from the situation while sitting on Wangpo during this period, it seems that the college is planning something big and has been secretly preparing something."
"Uncle Tai, what did you discover?"
Shang Xia knew that Shang Tai was in charge of the merchants' affairs in the two war areas, and could often discover some secret things through many clues left inadvertently.
Shang Tai thought for a while and said: "The fourth-level heavenly warriors who were supposed to be stationed in various places in the Two Realms War Zone have now disappeared. I suspect that they have all been secretly transferred out of the Two Realms War Zone."
Shang Xia frowned and said: "Are you saying that the academy is empty of defense in Zuowangpo and even the entire two-border battlefield, and now it is like an empty shell? Now it seems that we are singing an empty city strategy?"
"No no no..."
Shang Tai shook his head, looking a little unsure, and said: "What I mean is that we are not the only ones who are singing about the empty city strategy. It seems that the four major tribes opposite and the people in the Changbai Holy Land have also become quiet recently.
Master. Now both sides seem to be deliberately maintaining peace in the two war zones."
Shang Xia originally felt that the top management of the college seemed to be changing its usual hostile stance towards the Cangling world, and this seemed to be related to the general trend of the integration of the Cangyu and Cangling worlds.
And now Shangtai's speculation based on the comprehensive situation of the two war zones seems to further support Shangxia's judgment.
Shang Xia said in a deep voice: "Uncle Tai, I have recently gathered the family's manpower in the two war areas and stepped up their deployment in the area around Yuxifeng."
Shang Tai nodded and said: "Our people have always been stationed around Yuxifeng for observation. Are you going to..."
Shang Xia nodded and said, "I'm going to try my luck at Yuxifeng."
Shang Tai looked shocked and said quickly: "My dear nephew, be careful! So far, there are no less than ten warriors from Cangling's side and us who broke into Yuxi Peak, but no one has survived. It is said that even a fourth-level warrior
I don’t dare to enter it easily.”
Shang Xia shook his head slightly and said: "There is a very good chance that I can advance to the fourth heaven on Yuxi Peak, so I have to go this time."
Shang Tai was about to say something, but Shang Xia spoke first: "Uncle Tai, don't worry, even if things develop in the worst direction, I am absolutely sure to escape unscathed. I have made up my mind to wait for Uncle Qi to lead me."
Once you return to 'Yujing Honggujie', you will go directly to Yuxifeng, so you don't need to persuade me on this matter."
Shang Tai knew that the matter was irreversible, and said helplessly: "In this case, I will report this matter directly to the clan leader."
Yan Qi did not let Shang Xia wait too long this time. After getting the "Red Heart Pill Wood", Yan Qi returned to Zuowangpo again on the third day and successfully brought back a piece of "Jade Crystal Red Valley Rice"
”.
At this point, all the spiritual objects required for the formula of Shang Xia's advanced potion "Reincarnation Brewing of Four Seasons and Four Scenes" have been gathered.
It's just that Shang Xia still can't start attacking the fourth heaven immediately. All these spiritual objects still need to go through the hands of the pharmacist before they can be prepared into advanced wine potions.
The real power of a pharmacist is not in configuring advanced potions, but in injecting
A specific advanced formula can be given to each warrior.
Shang Xia naturally does not need to do this, he can directly come up with his own fourth-level advanced formula.
Then the role of the pharmacist is only to configure these spiritual objects into advanced potions. Therefore, there is no need for a fourth-level pharmacist to do it personally, only a third-level pharmacist can do it.
The merchant has not trained its own third-level pharmacist. If he wants to prepare the "Four Seasons and Four Scenery Reincarnation Brew", Shang Xia has to go to the academy's medicine hall for this matter.
And once the academy's pharmacist takes action, at least a large part of the formula for Shang Xia's advanced potions will be known to the academy.
But this doesn't matter to Shang Xia. After all, without someone from the academy to get a bottle of incomplete advanced potion, Shang Xia can't restore and improve it with the help of the Sifang Monument and the origin of heaven and earth.
Moreover, the advanced formula deduced by the Sifang Monument is completely targeted at Shang Xia alone.
Others may be able to use it, but both in terms of compatibility and success rate, it will definitely be greatly reduced.
Moreover, the advanced method required for "Four Seasons and Four Scenery Reincarnation Brewing" itself is so incredible that others don't even know it, and even if they know it, it is almost impossible to copy it.
The medicine hall has the highest status among all the halls under the Warehousing Department.
This is not only because the various medicines prepared by the pharmacists in the medicine hall are closely related to the warrior's own cultivation, but also because the medicine hall has the only master-level fourth-level pharmacist-Ge Muchen!
When the foreign lands were invaded and Youzhou fell, this old man was rescued by Chief Kou Shan. Since then, he has been living in seclusion in the medicine hall of Tongyou College.
Later, Tongyou Academy emerged and many fourth-level heavenly warriors were born. It is said that they have an inseparable relationship with this pharmacy master.
Not to mention others, as far as Shang Xia knew, when Shang Bo advanced to the fourth level of heaven under the guidance of Chief Kou Shan, the advanced potion "Multiple Thousand Fantasy Brews" he took was personally prepared by Master Ge Muchen.
It's just that although this master of medicine is very accomplished in the preparation of advanced medicines, his own martial arts path is extremely narrow, and he has not yet crossed the level of the fourth heaven.
It is said that Kou Chongxue and others teamed up to help him attack the fourth heaven, but in the end they failed, and even seriously injured himself, so he had to give up on advancing.
This fourth-level potion master has prepared advanced potions, training potions, and healing potions for other warriors many times. He made great contributions to the early establishment of Tongyou Academy. But when it was his turn, he still could not cross the threshold of the fourth heaven.
.
Nowadays, the master of medicine is getting older. He injured his origin by forcibly attacking the fourth heaven, and his lifespan is short. He no longer prepares medicines for people, and he only serves as a spiritual symbol of the medicine hall in the academy.
Prosperity among them.
In addition to Master Ge Muchen, there are four third-level pharmacists in the medicine hall.
From this point, it is not difficult to see that the foundation of Yaotang is much deeper than that of Zhentang and Futang, and most of these are attributed to Master Ge’s training in his early years.
There are currently two third-level pharmacists in charge of the medicine hall in Zuowangpo. One is the senior third-level pharmacist Ge Wangchuan. This person is a distant relative of Master Ge, and can also be said to be his successor.
The other one is Liu Zhifang, a third-level pharmacist who was newly promoted in the past few years. This person is a member of the Liu family, one of the four major families in Tongyou City. He is the same as Liu Zhiyuan and Liu Zhizhi, the two fourth-level warriors of the Liu family.
They are people of the same generation, and from this we can also see the heritage of the old families in Tongyou City.
But when they heard Shang Xia's intention, both of them looked troubled.
