259: Daoye has become a fourth-grade alchemist

Buzz!

Xie Weilou extended his hand, and the gray Taixu Spirit Fire appeared in his palm.

As soon as this flame emerged, the surrounding temperature sharply increased, and the Restriction runes flickered with light. The spirit fire's power was immense, causing a tremor in one's soul.

“......”

Xie Weilou carefully examined the Taixu Spirit Fire.

This was the Heaven and Earth Exotic Fire ranked seventeenth on the Exotic Fire List, a flame born from heaven and earth, so its power was naturally not weak.

He felt that this flame, at its peak, should be able to threaten a Divine Court Realm cultivator.

After all, Grand Elder Xie Yuan, as a Divine Court Realm cultivator, being suppressed under the Taixu Spirit Fire, was enough to explain many problems.

However, after a thousand years, the spirit fire’s power must have been depleted, which is why nine blazing orbs appeared in the Xu Tian Hall to provide external power to the Taixu Spirit Fire.

His current refinement further diminished the Taixu Spirit Fire’s power. At present, it probably couldn’t threaten a Divine Court Realm cultivator, but it could certainly threaten an ordinary Dragon Transformation Realm cultivator.

“Can’t worry about that much, let’s refine pills first!”

Xie Weilou took a deep breath, took out the pure yang eight trigrams furnace, and then retrieved some medicinal herbs.

He had quite a few medicinal herbs in his hands. In total, they should be enough to refine seven portions of Grade 3 pills and three portions of Grade 4 pills.

He just had to see if he could improve his pill-making skills within half a month. The path of cultivation was endless, and mastering medicinal pills was naturally very necessary.

“Let’s get started! Next, I’ll refine Grade 3 Territory Expansion Realm Pills.”

Xie Weilou’s mind instantly calmed down. He activated the Taixu Spirit Fire, enveloped the pill furnace, and then placed a medicinal herb inside.

As per usual, step by step, to see where there were problems so he could resolve them in time.

Buzz!

The pill furnace vibrated, the medicinal herbs rapidly melted, and the refining began. Powerful energy fluctuations filled the entire room...

At the same time.

North of the city.

A mysterious pavilion.

“Greetings, Sixth Prince!”

Xie Cangxuan bowed to Yan Wugou.

Yan Wugou looked at Xie Cangxuan: “I already know about the matters of the Zhenxi Marquis Manor.”

Xie Cangxuan said with a solemn expression: “Please eradicate Xie Weilou, Sixth Prince. That little beast’s threat is growing. If he investigates the old master’s death, he might find out about Your Highness...”

Before the old master went into seclusion, he had given him a spiritual herb, which was problematic and caused the old master’s seclusion to fail.

At that time, Xie Nantian was leading troops outside and naturally couldn’t rush back. As for Xie Bian, he spent his days in revelry and didn’t care about anything.

It was precisely because of this that he had the opportunity to approach the old master and deliver a fatal blow. The old master was indeed dead; he had personally witnessed his soul being extinguished. It was impossible for him to still be alive.

As for why Yan Wugou wanted to kill the old master, his explanation was simple: he wanted him to become the Marquis Zhenxi, thereby secretly assisting him.

For the past three years, he had outwardly been Yan Wuchen’s person, but in reality, he was part of Yan Wugou’s faction, helping Yan Wugou with many things.

Yan Wugou shook his head: “In this Tianqi City, I cannot touch Xie Weilou. However, with the Saint Academy’s recruitment, as long as he enters the Saint Academy, he will die soon enough.”

This child, Xie Weilou, was already a threat and had to be eliminated early, otherwise he would eventually become a great problem.

Xie Cangxuan’s heart stirred: “Your Highness means?”

“Northern You Alliance!”

Yan Wugou said with a calm expression.

As long as Xie Weilou entered the Saint Academy, when the Northern You Alliance opened, he would definitely participate. This was an excellent opportunity. At that time, he would have countless ways to kill Xie Weilou.

He was just afraid that Xie Weilou wouldn’t be able to enter the Saint Academy.

However, this possibility was very small. Since he could obtain Song Shenfeng’s token, it indicated that the Saint Academy was paying attention to Xie Weilou. This time, Xie Weilou should be able to enter the Saint Academy.

Xie Cangxuan took a deep breath: “I understand.”

Yan Wugou waved his hand, and a pill flew towards Xie Cangxuan: “This is a Grade 5 pill. It can regrow your severed arm and also greatly boost your cultivation.”

“Thank you, Your Highness.”

Xie Cangxuan’s face lit up with joy, and he quickly took the pill.

“En!”

Yan Wugou waved his hand gently.

Xie Cangxuan understood and quickly left the pavilion.

A beautiful woman in a white dress appeared in the pavilion. She held a wine cup and said with a charming smile: “You would use such a useless person?”

Yan Wugou said indifferently: “While he still lives, let him exert his last bit of light! With this Grade 5 Forbidden Pill, entering the Dao Repository Realm will be effortless, but he will go mad.”

“You are truly vicious.”

The woman in white smiled sweetly.

Yan Wugou looked out the window and said with a calm expression: “The demon race is more vicious and cruel. I am only a half-demon. When it comes to viciousness and cruelty, I am not as good as your demon race.”

“Perhaps.”

The woman in white’s smile deepened.

Yan Wugou thought for a moment, then took out a gray box: “Please do something for me. Deliver this to the Peacock Clan.”

“Alright.”

The woman in white took the box and disappeared from the pavilion.

— — — — — —

Half a month later.

The Saint Academy’s recruitment officially began.

This recruitment was not only for Great Xia but also for the surrounding major dynasties.

Of course, West Chu, which was related to the demon race, was not included.

Each time the Saint Academy recruited, there would be various assessments, and the difficulty of the assessments was immense. If one had connections, they could take a shortcut. If not, they could only take the most difficult path, passing through layers of assessments to finally enter.

Generally speaking, students who entered through normal assessments would receive special care, with no lack of resources. They might even gain the favor of a powerful expert from the Saint Academy and be taken as a disciple, thus soaring to great heights.

Zhenxi Marquis Manor.

Inside the pavilion.

Xie Weilou, disheveled, held a golden pill, his face full of smiles: “It’s done, This Young Master has succeeded!”

The Grade 4 Divine Treasure Pill was a success.

Now he was a Grade 4 alchemist.

Of the seven portions of Grade 3 medicinal herbs, four were refined; of the three portions of Grade 4 medicinal herbs, only one was refined. Each batch yielded one pill, and they didn’t even have pill patterns, but it was still very good.

In half a month, from a Grade 2 alchemist to a Grade 4 alchemist, this was also thanks to his Taixu Spirit Fire, which made refining much easier. Otherwise, it would certainly not have been so simple.

Xie Weilou took out a white jade bottle, put the pills inside, then put away various items in the pavilion, and said: “Lihua!”

“Young Master, I’m here.”

Lihua’s voice sounded from outside the building.

Xie Weilou said: “Prepare hot water, This Young Master wants to take a bath.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Lihua immediately went to prepare.

Half an hour later.

Xie Weilou took a hot bath, changed into an elegant white robe, ate something, and then walked out of the building. His aura changed accordingly, from late Xuanhuang Realm directly to peak Xuanhuang Realm.

Today, he had to go to the Saint Academy.

In half a month, Butler Fu had found many people; a batch of guards and maids had been added.

“Greetings, Young Master.”

Everyone quickly bowed upon seeing Xie Weilou.

“En! Everyone just do your own thing.”

Xie Weilou nodded to everyone, then left the Zhenxi Marquis Manor...
