946: Chapter 947 Nominal Disciple

Heavenly Lord Qingming trembled all over and suddenly raised his head: "Young Master Gu's great kindness, Qingming Heavenly Palace will never forget for all eternity! If Young Master has any commands in the future, just send a message to the Heavenly Palace!"

Gu Changge did not look back, just waved his hand casually and continued walking outward.

"Indeed, it really was successfully refined!"

"My god, how long has this been? Not even half an hour!"

"Nine patterns... Just now I seemed to sense the aura of nine Medicinal Pill patterns! How is this possible?"

"Young Master Gu's Dao of Alchemy is divine and reaches the gods; us vulgar mortals can hardly hope to catch up in our entire lives!"

Whispers rose and fell one after another, everyone was shaken beyond measure by the facts before them. The Alchemy speed that their Tiandan Pavilion took pride in was simply like child's play in front of Gu Changge.

Gu Changge turned a deaf ear to these discussions, his pace still calm. However, just as he was about to step out of the corridor entrance,

"Young Master, please stay your steps!"

An old and eager shout came from behind.

Gu Changge's footsteps paused slightly, and he saw Ancestor Dan Wuya stumbling out from the Alchemy room, his old face flushed red and his breath rapid.

He rushed behind Gu Changge in a few steps, and under everyone's gaze, with a thud, he knelt straight down!

This kneeling shocked everyone in the entire corridor until their bodies went numb, all of them widening their eyes and opening their mouths wide, as if they had seen a ghost.

That was Ancestor Dan Wuya! The Old Ancestor of Tiandan Pavilion! A living fossil of the Wasteland's Dao of Alchemy!

A super powerhouse of the half-step Supreme! Normally, even Revered Masters of Heavenly Venerate-level factions would have to politely call him "Senior" when seeing him!

But at this moment, he actually knelt directly without any image in front of Young Master Gu. What had happened inside the Alchemy room?

Pavilion Master Danchenzi's pupils shrank sharply, and he subconsciously stepped forward half a step, then abruptly stopped his footsteps, monstrous waves surging in his heart. What an arrogant person the Old Ancestor was.

Now he actually knelt in public. If this matter were to spread, all major factions in the entire Wasteland would trigger a monstrous shock.

Ancestor Dan Wuya didn't care at all about the jaw-dropping gazes around him. He knelt straight, looking up at Gu Changge's back. His murky eyes were filled with unprecedented piety and fanaticism, and he said with a trembling voice:

"Young Master Gu! This old man Dan Wuya, earnestly implores Young Master to take me as your Disciple!"

As soon as these words came out, there was a sound of gasping for breath in the corridor. Everyone's brain went completely blank, completely unable to believe the scene happening before their eyes.

"The Old Ancestor wants to take a Revered Master?!"

"Take that Young Master Gu as a Revered Master?!"

"This... this this this..."

A half-step Supreme, the ruling Old Ancestor of Tiandan Pavilion, kneeling in public to acknowledge a Revered Master—such a thing had never existed since ancient times, and had never happened in the Wasteland for all eternity!

Tiandan Pavilion's Ancestor Dan Wuya, universally recognized as the number one person in the Wasteland's Dao of Alchemy, a half-step Supreme mighty figure, had a frighteningly high seniority.

Pavilion Master Danchenzi was also dumbfounded. Although he knew the Old Ancestor was subdued by Gu Changge's Alchemy technique, he never expected the other party to go this far!

This was not just lowering oneself to associate with others; it simply subverted Tiandan Pavilion's traditions of hundreds of millions of years!

Heavenly Lord Qingming on the side had his pupils shrink sharply even more, his whole body freezing in place.

He had just received that nine-pattern Nirvana pill from Pavilion Master Danchenzi's hand, and before he had time to examine it closely, he was so shocked by the scene before him that he almost dropped the jade bottle onto the ground.

Tiandan Pavilion's Old Ancestor... knelt?

He subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, tightened his grip on the jade bottle in his hand, and monstrous waves surged in his heart.

He originally thought that taking out the Luck golden dragon scale to exchange for a nine-pattern Nirvana pill was already taking a huge advantage.

But now it seemed that what he exchanged for was far more than just a Medicinal Pill; what he exchanged for was a bond of good karma with this peerless expert.

A figure whom even Ancestor Dan Wuya had to kneel and beg to take as a Revered Master—he, Heavenly Lord Qingming, actually had a connection with him.

Gu Changge slowly turned around, his gaze falling calmly on Ancestor Dan Wuya who was kneeling on the ground, his tone without any ripples:

"I already have several Personal Disciples under my sect, all of whom are young juniors. There is a huge age gap between you two, and besides, you are the Old Ancestor of Tiandan Pavilion with a revered status; I have no intention of taking Disciples for the time being."

His voice was not loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears.

With his current cultivation and status, taking a half-step Supreme as a Personal Disciple was not only contrary to propriety, but also lacked much necessity.

Hearing this, Ancestor Dan Wuya not only did not feel discouraged at all, but instead kowtowed even deeper, his forehead heavily striking the cold ground and making a dull sound:

"Young Master! This old man knows my status is inappropriate, and dare not extravagantly hope to become Young Master's Personal Disciple! I only beg Young Master to show pity and take this old man as a Named Disciple!"

"This old man has been obsessed with the Dao of Alchemy for countless years, and today, witnessing Young Master's Alchemy Divine Ability with my own eyes, I realized that I was only a frog at the bottom of a well before."

"Young Master's Dao of Alchemy reaches the heavens, and those who achieve mastery are teachers. This old man earnestly implores Young Master to take me as a Disciple, to follow by your side in this lifetime, serve Revered Master in Alchemy, and concentrate on studying the Supreme Dao of Alchemy. I hope Young Master will grant this wish!"

"If Young Master does not agree, this old man... this old man will kneel here indefinitely!"

His obsession with the Dao of Alchemy for hundreds of millions of years was entirely pinned on Gu Changge today. Missing today, he would never have another chance in this lifetime to comprehend such a Supreme Dao of Alchemy, and no matter what, he was unwilling to give up this Opportunity to acknowledge a Revered Master.

Ancestor Dan Wuya spoke with true affection and tears streaming down his old face. That extreme thirst for the Dao of Alchemy infected everyone present.

These alchemists finally understood that what the Old Ancestor was kneeling to was not Gu Changge's identity, but that Supreme Dao of Alchemy!

For a time, everyone felt a myriad of mixed emotions in their hearts; they were both shocked that the Old Ancestor laid down all his dignity, and could understand the obsession in the Old Ancestor's heart.

Gu Changge looked at the old man kneeling at his feet, aged in body but with burning eyes, and remained silent for a moment.

He could feel the pure and almost stubborn obsession with the Dao of Alchemy within the other party's Divine Soul, and nodded slightly:

"Very well, since your resolve is firm, I will take you as a Named Disciple, and there is no need to perform the strict etiquette of a Personal Disciple."

"On ordinary days, you will still manage Tiandan Pavilion. Whenever you encounter confusion in Alchemy and cultivation, you may seek me out to inquire about the Dao of Alchemy at any time."

This short sentence made Ancestor Dan Wuya, who was prostrate on the ground, tremble all over. A huge ecstasy instantly swept through his mind and spirit, and hot tears instantly welled up in his murky old eyes as he heavily performed three kowtows toward Gu Changge, the sound heavy:

"Disciple Dan Wuya, thanks Revered Master for accepting me! In this lifetime, I will remember Revered Master's teachings and strictly guard the original intent of the Dao of Alchemy!"

After finishing the three kowtows, Ancestor Dan Wuya slowly stood up, his spine still slightly hunched. The look in his eyes as he gazed at Gu Changge was filled with utter adoration and reverence, lacking even a shred of the Old Ancestor's majesty.

Gu Changge nodded slightly and said: "Rise."

Only then did Ancestor Dan Wuya stand up tremblingly, his face overflowing with undisguisable excitement and glory.

He turned around, his gaze sweeping across all the Elders of Tiandan Pavilion in the audience, including Pavilion Master Danchenzi, his voice loud and majestic, carrying unprecedented confidence:

"All of you listen well! Starting from today, Young Master Gu is my Revered Master! He is also your shared Grandmaster generation! In the future within Tiandan Pavilion, seeing Young Master Gu is like seeing me! No—"

He paused, intensifying his tone, "Seeing Young Master Gu must be even more respectful than seeing this old man! Young Master's command is the order of Tiandan Pavilion! Whoever dares to show the slightest neglect, do not blame this old man for being unaccommodating!"

These words were spoken decisively and left no room for doubt.

All the Elders of Tiandan Pavilion felt their hearts tighten and shouted in unison: "We respectfully obey the Old Ancestor's decree!"

Pavilion Master Danchenzi also hurriedly stepped forward, cupping his fists and saying:

"Young Master, rest assured. From now on, the entire Tiandan Pavilion is at Young Master's disposal!"

"Whatever requirements Young Master has, you only need to give an order, and Tiandan Pavilion will definitely do its utmost!"

He calculated inwardly that with the Old Ancestor acknowledging a Revered Master, Gu Changge had actually become the true behind-the-scenes Dominator of Tiandan Pavilion.

This was both a challenge and a heaven-sent Opportunity!

Being able to casually refine a nine-turn nirvana pill like this, Young Master Gu's cultivation must have definitely reached the realm of Supreme.

If they could climb up to this backing, Tiandan Pavilion, let alone dominating the Wasteland, would probably be able to secure a foothold even looking across the entire celestial realm!

Xiaobai on the side swept her gaze past the pavilion Revered Master, and then glanced at Ancestor Dan Wuya who had just entered her Revered Master's sect and was extremely respectful to Gu Changge.

She turned her head to look at Gu Changge by her side, and muttered softly:

"Revered Master is still the most formidable! Now we won't have to worry about medicinal materials for Alchemy!"
