However, Daoist Elixir Lord's face was filled with complex emotions.
He did not expect that all of this was true. Bai Ziyue actually passed the assessment and officially became a beginner fourth-grade alchemist.
"Let's go!"
He didn't have the face to stay here any longer. He shouted and turned to leave.
Yang Xiner's eyes were filled with excitement, but she didn't dare to disobey and followed behind Daoist Elixir Lord.
However, just as they were about to leave, Dongfang Ming and Daoist Transcendence stepped into the Elixir Palace and greeted, "Elder Elixir Lord."
"Elder Elixir Lord, did you also hear that Elder Bai has become a beginner grade four alchemist? Are you here?"
"No."
Daoist Elixir Lord's chest tightened and he felt like vomiting blood.
The two of them noticed that Daoist Elixir Lord's expression was a little strange. Considering the conflict a few days ago, they didn't dare to say anything.
"Greetings, Hall Master and Elder Bai!"
"Greetings, Hall Master and Elder Bai!"
At this moment, a series of respectful voices came from behind Daoist Elixir Lord.
Daoist Elixir Lord and Ziyue walked out of the Elixir Palace together.
"Haha, Junior Brother Elixir Lord, Elder Dongfang Ming and Daoist Transcendence, I knew you would come after hearing the news.
The Sect Master and the others have already heard the news and are on their way. Come with me and welcome them at the door.
Also, there's something I need to discuss with you. "
A loud laugh rang out. Dao Lord Pill Dust had a high-spirited look on his face and his eyes were filled with excitement.
"Hall Master Elixir Lord, congratulations to Elder Bai for becoming a beginner grade four alchemist."
Dongfang Ming and Daoist Transcendence bowed slightly, their eyes filled with envy.
Dongfang Ming, in particular, was shocked.
Ziyue had said that he was confident that he could become a grade four alchemist. Dongfang Ming thought that even if Ziyue could break through, it would take him at least half a year.
However, it only took him a few days?
He broke through so quickly?
Now that he had completed the test, his alchemy skills were recognized by the Hall Master.
Daoist Elixir Lord knew that it wasn't the right time to leave. His face twitched and he said, "Greetings, Senior Brother."
"Greetings, Elder Dongfang, Elder Guohuo, and …"
"Elder Danjun." Ziyue smiled and turned to Immortal Danjun.
"Hmph!"
Perfected Elixir Lord snorted coldly and ignored him.
He felt even more aggrieved.
Today was supposed to be his time to shine, and all the glory was about to be bestowed upon him.
In the end, Ziyue appeared out of nowhere, and his brilliance was overshadowed before he could even bloom.
In front of a Grade 4 Alchemist, what was the point of him breaking through to a high Grade 3 Alchemist?
Moreover, what made him even more worried was that now that Ziyue was already a Fourth Grade Alchemist, would his position as the next Palace Master still be stable?
"Palace Master, may I know what matter you wish to discuss?"
Dongfang Ming noticed the awkward atmosphere and quickly changed the topic.
"It's like this.
Now that I don't have much lifespan left, I feel even more powerless when the Five Decays of the Celestial Being descend. I have long wanted to give up the position of Hall Master and enjoy the rest of my life.
Originally, I wanted to wait until Immortal Danjun became a high Grade 3 Alchemist before passing the position of Hall Master to him officially.
But now that Elder Bai has appeared, and his alchemy skills have reached Grade 4, it's just right.
So, I want to pass the position of Hall Master to Elder Bai. What do you think? "
Perfected Lord Dan Chen looked at them and said.
Ziyue's eyebrows twitched. He originally wanted to find an opportunity to hint and recommend himself, but he did not expect Perfected Lord Dan Chen to bring it up first.
Perfected Dan Lord was both shocked and furious. Today, he had almost shut himself in because of Bai Ziyue, and his biggest consolation was his identity as the next Hall Master. He was still a little worried, but when he heard Perfected Lord Dan Chen's words, he almost vomited blood. He hurriedly said with grief and indignation, "Senior Brother, I've already become an advanced third-grade alchemist."
"Junior Brother, I know it's hard for you to accept, but the Elixir Treasure Hall needs a Grade 4 Alchemist.
It's not only related to the internal affairs of the Elixir Treasure Hall, but also the reputation of the Qingxu Sect.
I hope that you can understand, "
Perfected Lord Dan Chen thought that his junior brother was just feeling indignant and did not choose his words carefully. As such, he sighed and consoled him.
"Understand? How should I understand?"
Perfected Elixir Lord hollered with a cold glint in his eyes. Pausing for a moment, he said fiercely, "Senior Brother, I hope that you don't regret this."
"Also, Ziyue, let's wait and see!"
With that said, he did not linger any longer and flew away swiftly.
Yang Xiner looked at Ziyue with a conflicted expression and bade farewell to Perfected Lord Dan Chen before chasing after him hurriedly.
"Palace Master …"
Perfected Being Guanhuo said hesitantly.
"Junior Brother, you'll understand me in the future.
I can't let the Elixir Treasure Hall that master handed over to me decline just like that. "
As Perfected Lord Dan Chen said, he looked at Bai Ziyue and said seriously, "I hope that Elder Bai can truly strengthen Elixir Treasure Hall and return to its heyday."
"Don't worry!"
Ziyue did not say anything else and merely nodded in agreement.
Before long, Sect Master Ren Feixian, Perfected Lord Jiewu of Internal Affairs Hall and Perfected Lord Hema of Weapon Combination Hall arrived together.
"Greetings, Sect Master, Hall Master Jiewu and Hall Master Hema."
The group of people bowed hurriedly.
Thereafter, the group of people moved into the inner hall of the Elixir Treasure Hall.
"Perfected Lord Dan Chen, is it true that Elder Bai has advanced to an early-stage Grade 4 Elixir Refinement Master?"
Ren Feixian was the first to speak. However, he could not help but look at Ziyue with a deep gaze.
He was truly shocked by this.
How long had the other party been in the sect?
Furthermore, his strength was indeed far from that of ordinary Grade 4 Elixir Refinement Masters.
It was truly unbelievable for him to be able to achieve this.
Not only did this require unparalleled talent in Elixir Refinement, but he also needed to master a top-tier True Fire divine power that was comparable to the Golden Core True Fire.
Given his control over the sect, he naturally had ways to find out that Ziyue's True Fire divine power had integrated the Thousand Year Ice Heart Fire with the Heaven and Earth Fire. However, he did not know that the other party's True Fire divine power had already reached a level comparable to the Golden Core True Fire.
He could only sigh inwardly. Perhaps this was what it meant to be a genius.
Although there were few geniuses of this level in the entire Cloud Piercing Mountain Range, it was not like there were none.
For example, his first disciple, Perfected Sword Push, had unparalleled talent in cultivation. However, due to the lack of inheritance in the Qingxu Sect, he could not refine a Grade 3 Elixir Refinement Pill or above. That was why he decided to create his own cultivation technique and was stuck at the God realm.
"Sect Master, Elder Bai's Elixir Refinement Skills are indeed unparalleled. During this assessment, he successfully refined the Grade 4 White Moon Elixir Refinement Pill into an early-stage Grade 4 Elixir Refinement Pill.
It can be said that if not for the fact that Elder Bai's Spirit Sense was insufficient and affected the refinement of the elixir to a certain extent, he would already be on par with me in terms of Elixir Refinement Skills. "
Dao Lord Dan Chen said seriously.
"Good!
Good!
This is really good.
The Pill Treasure Hall of the Qingxu Sect is really going to prosper. "
Ren Feixian immediately became excited.
"Congratulations, Dan Chen. Congratulations, Elder Bai."
"Congratulations, Perfected Lord Dan Chen. Congratulations, Pill Treasure Hall. Congratulations, Elder Bai."
Perfected Lord Ji Wu and Perfected Lord Hei Ma hurriedly congratulated them.
Even though he was not used to such social interactions, Ziyue did not dare to neglect them and hurriedly returned the greeting.
"Therefore, I plan to pass the position of the next Hall Master to Elder Bai. What do you think, Sect Master?"
Perfected Lord Dan Chen said immediately.
"Sure, Elder Bai's Elixir Refinement Skills are enough for the position of the Hall Master."
Ren Feixian pondered for a while and nodded as if he agreed. However, he soon said again, "However, Elder Bai's strength is still at the early-stage of the God realm after all. It's not enough.
How about this, Senior Brother Dan Chen, stabilize the position of the Hall Master for a few more years until Elder Bai's strength reaches the late-stage of the God realm. Then, you can officially take over the position of the Hall Master. What do you think? "
No matter what, Ziyue had just joined the Qingxu Sect and was a Loose Cultivator.
It was not a big deal for him to be an Elder in the Pill Treasure Hall. However, as for the position of the Hall Master … Although he valued such a peerless genius, the more it was so, the more he had to be cautious.
In this way, he would be able to answer to the outside world.
"What do you think, Elder Bai?"
Perfected Lord Dan Chen asked.
"No problem. I'm still lacking a lot now."
Ziyue nodded slightly.
He did not want to take over the position of the Hall Master so soon. The reason why he did not reject directly was that he did not want to be controlled by Perfected Lord Dan Chen and solve the problem of the Elixir Refinement Ingredients once and for all.
Ren Feixian's suggestion was exactly what he wanted.
"Alright, but since Elder Bai has become a Grade Four Elixir Refinement Master, you should be rewarded.
This is the jade token that allows you to enter the Hall of Inheritance. With this jade token, you can enter the Hall of Inheritance and study for a month.
In addition, Senior Brother Jiwu, can I trouble you to add 300,000 merit points to Elder Bai's identity token as a reward for this mission?
These merit points will be deducted from my identity token. "
Ren Feixian glanced at Bai Ziyue with admiration. She handed over a jade tablet and said.
"Since the Sect Master has already given out the reward, as the Hall Master of the Internal Affairs Hall, I naturally can't be stingy. I'll add 200,000 merit points as a congratulatory gift."
Perfected Lord Ji Wu said with a smile.
"You guys have roasted me on the fire. If you don't give me something, do you think I'll be able to walk out of the Pill Treasure Hall?"
Perfected Lord Hippo looked at the Sect Master and Perfected Lord Ji Wu and laughed. He thought for a moment and flipped his hand. A Spirit Pearl appeared in his palm and he said, "This is a small item that I refined some time ago. It's quite unique in terms of defending against soul attacks. I'll give it to Elder Bai."
"It's a supreme-grade Dharma treasure, the Greenwood Soul Protection Pearl. Junior Brother Hippo's item is quite big.
Elder Bai, why aren't you thanking them? "
Perfected Lord Dan Chen hurriedly said when he saw that Ziyue was hesitating.
"Thank you, Sect Master, Hall Master Ji Wu, Hall Master Hippo."
Bai Ziyue hurriedly bowed slightly and responded. Only then did he reach out to receive the reward.
