Chapter 44: Alchemists are all big dogs
Frank took out a transparent and simple white ball from his ring and explained to Gu Fengchen, "Friend Gu Feng, this soul-testing ball is a magical tool used by our Alchemist Guild to test soul power. You said before that you have a trace of wood-attributed fighting spirit in your fire body. So, as long as you have enough soul power, you have the qualifications to become an alchemist."

For alchemists, the first and most important thing is the fire, which is the flame needed for alchemy.

To refine pills, it is impossible to use ordinary fire. Instead, you must use the Dou Qi flame catalyzed by the fire-attributed Dou Qi. Of course, it would be better if it was a strange fire.

But there are not so many strange fires in the world. Most people can only practice fire-attributed skills and use fighting spirit flames as a substitute.

Using strange fire to refine medicine not only has a much higher success rate! Moreover, the medicine refined is more potent and stronger than the medicine refined by ordinary fighting spirit flames!
In addition, there is soul perception.

You can think of it as control.

Because the final destination of soul perception is to control the temperature.

Alchemy is a delicate job. Sometimes, if the temperature is slightly off, the entire furnace of pills will turn to ashes, resulting in all previous efforts being wasted.

To control the temperature, you need strong soul perception.

Gu Fengchen nodded and placed his hand on the spirit-testing ball.

"Okay, now try to immerse your mind in it," Frank prompted.

Gu Fengchen took a deep breath and immersed his mind according to Frank's instructions.

Soon, Gu Fengchen seemed to be completely silent at this moment, and even his breathing became weaker and weaker.

The next moment, a faint light appeared from the spirit ball. Frank was stunned for a moment, then looked at the gradually brightening light, and a hint of joy emerged in his eyes.

You have to know that on this continent, no matter how high or low your talent is, as long as you have the talent to become an alchemist, you are already luckier than ninety-nine percent of the people!
In fact, Gu Fengchen had just immersed part of his mind into the spirit-detecting ball, but he did not expect that the spirit-detecting ball was so sensitive.

He stopped while he was ahead. According to Gu Fengchen's estimation, if he immersed himself completely, the spirit ball would probably explode.
It's just like a 500-pound fat man stepping on a 200-pound scale.

When he saw Frank's burning gaze, he knew that he did have the qualifications to become an alchemist.

Frank took a deep breath and said seriously: "My friend Gu Feng, your talent is even better than Mei Er's. Are you willing to be my disciple?"

Frank is a straightforward person. If there are good seedlings, he is willing to cultivate them.

You want me to be your teacher?

Gu Fengchen complained in his heart, and he said in a deep voice: "I already have a teacher."

"What a pity." Frank's face was full of disappointment.

"However, you are my senior, so I can call you teacher." Gu Fengchen didn't say anything too absolute.

"Hahahaha, okay, okay."

Of course, Frank and Fa Ma's group of people, their own talents determine that they will probably never achieve anything in this lifetime, so they all hope to cultivate more powerful young people. This is the so-called competitive psychology.

Although he is not a real teacher, it is still very comfortable to hear the name "Teacher Frank".

"Very good. From today on, whenever you meet Xue Mei, you have to call her Senior Sister." The smile on Frank's face became brighter.

Gu Fengchen snorted, but did not refuse. He just treated it as a role-playing game with Xue Mei.

Frank thought for a while and said, "I can give you some advice on alchemy, but if you want to practice, I suggest you go to Yunlan Sect or Canaan College." Frank got into the role quickly, so quickly that even Gu Fengchen was a little surprised.

Gu Fengchen thought for a moment and asked seriously, "Then, which one do you think is better?"

Frank thought for a moment and said, "These two paths are completely different. The Yunlan Sect follows the master-disciple system. If you can cultivate to a sufficient level in the future, you will have the opportunity to control part of the power of the Yunlan Sect. I heard that the daughter of the Nalan family, Nalan Yanran, joined the Yunlan Sect. However, there are more intrigues in the Yunlan Sect, while Canaan College is more pure. However, you have to leave Canaan College after graduation, but the level is higher than that of the Yunlan Sect."

Gu Fengchen was stunned for a moment, mainly because he heard a familiar name, Nalan Yanran.

In fact, Nalan Yanran did not have many scenes, but if she had not broken off the engagement, there would not have been the classic line "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west".

Gu Fengchen still remembers that when he was in school in his previous life, there was an extremely immature classmate in his class.

He often taunts his classmates, calling them "idiots" and "mediocrities".

The teacher called him to the office to give him a scolding, and he said, "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, don't look down on the young and poor."

Well, just a pure older problem child.

In terms of age, Nalan Yanran is three years older than Xiao Yan.

(Don't argue with me, the ages of Tudou were a bit confusing in the early stages, but according to the three-year agreement, Xiao Yan was seventeen and Nalan Yanran was twenty, so both were Grand Fighters.)
And Nalan Yanran seemed to have entered the Yunlan Sect at the age of ten, so the time was about the same.

Do you want to join the Yunlan Sect and take down Nalan Yanran?

After thinking about it, Gu Fengchen gave up the idea.

First of all, Nalan Yanran herself doesn’t have many resources. Her role in the early stage is to stimulate Xiao Yan, madly stimulate him. There is no point in going to find this girl by yourself.

Secondly, if I go to Yunlan Sect, how can I practice dual cultivation with my little medical fairy?
Seeing that Gu Fengchen didn't say anything, Frank asked hesitantly, "Why, you don't want to go?"

Gu Fengchen waved his hand, "No one said that if you join the Yunlan Sect, you can't enter the Canaan Academy. I don't dwell on this. It's just that I don't plan to join them for the time being. I'll wait until I grow up for a while before I decide."

"Okay." Frank nodded. It's a good thing for children to have their own opinions.

As he spoke, Frank pointed his finger and a storage ring flew in front of Gu Fengchen.

"There are some basic materials in here. You are the boss of Wanyaozhai, so you should not be short of materials. The main thing is that there is a medicine cauldron in it, which can be regarded as a meeting gift from your master."

When Gu Fengchen heard that there was a medicine cauldron, he bowed down immediately!

Damn, the alchemist is really a rich man.

You know, alchemists not only need talent, but also resources.

Any random medicinal material of very low age would cost dozens of gold coins, not to mention those magic cores. A first-level magic core could be sold for five or six hundred gold coins.

Alchemists are not gods. Without the best materials, they are also helpless. Only good materials can be transformed into good pills!

Moreover, the price of medicine cauldron is also very expensive. The cheapest medicine cauldron costs thousands of gold coins each. Although Gu Fengchen is now the boss of Wanyaozhai, he does not have much money on hand.
