Chapter 470: Do you have any wise ideas?

His Highness nodded and said, ” “Fellow Daoist Wang Gao, I’ve long heard of your great name.”
PEI Ling regained his senses and hurriedly bowed.”This one is Wang Gao. Greetings, Your Highness.”
“Fellow Daoist Wang doesn’t need to be so polite.” The nineteenth Prince raised his hand and said, ” the alchemy ceremony only talks about alchemy skills, not background. &Quot; I’m only an ordinary fifth grade Alchemist now. My name ends here, so fellow Daoist can just call me by my name.”
“Fellow Daoist Zhongkui.” PEI Ling nodded in response.
Seeing this, Zhongkui Xuan smiled and got down to business, ” “I wonder what the test question in fellow Daoist Wang’s room is?”
“The incomplete recipe I’m going to make up for is called the five elemental barrier-breaking pill.” PEI Ling took out the beast skin that recorded the remnant recipe and displayed it in front of the three of them.
The three of them quickly glanced at the incomplete formula and then nodded slightly. It was another pill formula that they had never heard of.
PEI Ling originally wanted to quickly send the three away, but Xun Wushang suggested,”Since no one has any clues, why don’t we go to fellow Daoist Wang’s place to discuss it? After all, the court examinations allow everyone to communicate with each other. From the looks of it, we can’t complete the questions alone. We need to work together.”
“Not bad!” Before PEI Ling could reject him, Nangong su had already nodded in agreement. He cupped his hands at PEI Ling and said, ” fellow Daoist Wang, I’ll have to trouble you then! &Quot;
“I’ll get someone to send some refreshments over,” Zhongkui mo said immediately.
The three of them clearly did not think that PEI Ling would not welcome them. After all, to an Alchemist who was participating in the pill discussion ceremony, there was nothing more important than making up for the incomplete formula.
Regardless of their other identities and backgrounds, they were all fifth-grade alchemists in terms of alchemy skills. Taking the initiative to come to Wang Gao, a foreign fifth-grade rogue cultivator, for a discussion, it was not to say that they were being condescending, but their attitudes were also friendly.
Wang Gao would definitely be overjoyed, so how could he possibly refuse?
&Quot; this ... &Quot; PEI Ling’s heart was bitter, but he could not decline. He could only force a smile and say, ” please! &Quot;
Thus, the four of them walked into PEI Ling’s small courtyard. After they sat down in the pavilion, Zhong kuifei gave an order, and two crane boys quickly flew over. They held bamboo baskets in their beaks and took out many spirit fruits and refreshments, placing them all over the table.
After everyone took a sip of the spiritual tea, Zhong kuiyan asked impatiently, ” “Fellow Daoist Wang, I’m well aware of Dean Nangong and Junior Brother Xun’s pill Dao attainments. You have the ability to suppress the two of them and become the champion of the county trial. It can be said that among the four of us, you are the best in the art of pill refining.”
“I wonder what the medicinal pill’s opinion is on the completion of this incomplete formula?”
Hearing this, PEI Ling’s expression froze for a moment before he quickly replied, ” “I’m ashamed to say this, but I was born as a wandering cultivator, and my inheritance is incomplete. His Foundation in alchemy was weak, and he had come to dynasty to make up for his shortcomings. If I had the complete pill recipe, it wouldn’t be difficult for me to refine it. ”
“But this is the first time I’ve encountered such a problem ...”
At this point, he was worried that the three of them would continue to question him, so he simply asked, ” Daoist Zhongkui, do you have any ideas now? ”
“You do have some ideas.” Zhongkui Suan didn’t hide anything and said, ” the incomplete recipe I’m going to make up for is called the mystic Light adversity suppression pill. The two known main ingredients are used for healing and dispelling curses. If I’m not mistaken, this should be a pill recipe for healing injuries and removing curses.”
“So the missing main ingredient must be related to this ...”
“However, other than the main ingredients, there are also some missing pill refining techniques.”
&Quot; in this world, there are countless healing and curse-breaking items. Considering the different effects of different alchemy techniques and the mutual promotion and restraint between medicinal herbs, it is difficult to determine what is needed in a short time. &Quot;
&Quot; not to mention, after screening out the possible medicinal materials, we still have to consider which step to add, how much to add, and the processing before adding ... &Quot;
&Quot; if the court examinations were to last for a few years, even if it was a few months, it would be easy to solve the problem by using elixirs to maintain one’s energy and mind and burning the medicine to pass the tests. &Quot;
“But this time, we only have ten days. Trying one by one is obviously not feasible ...”
Hearing this, Xun Wushang nodded slightly and said, ” “Senior brother Zhong Kui is right! What we need to do now is to confirm the missing main ingredients of the remnant recipe. According to the rules, besides going to the elixir dispensary to read the books, we can also go to the hundred medicine Manor to choose medicinal herbs.”
“This point might be a hint that the hundred medicine Manor has all the herbs that we are lacking in the incomplete recipe.”
“So next, why don’t we head to the hundred medicine Manor and take a look at all the resources there?”
“This way, we can narrow down the search area.”
“Otherwise, no matter how big the world is, even the ministers of the Imperial court once said that they might not be able to recognize all the medicinal herbs.”
&Quot; if we assume that the main material is missing, isn’t it the same as finding a needle in a haystack? ”
Nangong su also nodded slightly and agreed, ” “Right! This way, the search area could be narrowed down a lot. Later on, we’ll study the steps of alchemy and deduce which are definitely unsuitable. This way, we can eliminate most of the options ...”
&Quot; we’ll have to go to the elixir dispensary to read the books. With our current knowledge of the alchemy Dao, it might not be enough to rule out all the impossible main ingredients ... &Quot;
The three of them continued their discussion, and it was in full swing.
PEI Ling listened expressionlessly. In the beginning, he could still understand some of their thoughts, but gradually, it was like listening to a heavenly book. He could understand every word the three of them said, but when put together, he had no idea what the three of them were saying.
Time passed slowly, and the discussion in the pavilion continued for more than four hours.
Xun Wushang, Nangong su, and Zhongkui Xiao had all gained a lot and felt that this trip was not in vain.
In the end, an idea came to kui Yan’s mind. He could not wait to go to the hundred medicine Manor and the elixir dispensary to look it up. He decided to go back to his residence immediately and start the furnace to refine it once to verify his thoughts. Thus, he hurriedly explained the reason and immediately stood up to leave, &Quot; I have some ideas, but I can’t go into detail now. After I go back and open the furnace, I will share them with you all, regardless of whether I succeed or fail. &Quot;
Upon seeing this, Xun Wushang and Nangong su also stood up. &Quot; “We’ve also gained something and need to go back to open the furnace to verify it. I have to thank fellow cultivator Wang for today. As expected, we can’t do things behind closed doors. We still need to work together for this court examination ... Fellow cultivator Wang, let’s meet again after we open the furnace!”
PEI Ling automatically ignored their last sentence and was overjoyed.
It had been more than four hours!
He had finally made it through!
As for the next time ... Hehe, after these people leave, he would announce that he was in seclusion to refine pills and that he should not be disturbed.
In any case, it was impossible for them to meet again, not in this lifetime.
At the thought of this, PEI Ling revealed a sincere smile. &Quot; fellow Daoist is too polite. I’ve benefited a lot from today’s death. I’ll try to open the furnace later. &Quot;
“Three fellow Daoists, take care!”
He quickly walked to the side of the courtyard and opened the door. PEI Ling had just heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the three of them off. Just as he was about to enter the house, a knock on the door was accompanied by a clear female voice.”Fellow Daoist Wang, are you free now?”
Hearing this, PEI Ling immediately recognized the voice as Zhou Miaoli’s fake identity.
Not bad!
Zhou Miaoli came just in time, he could start concocting now.
At the thought of this, PEI Ling immediately went to open the door.
Creak.
The courtyard door opened slowly, and PEI Ling pretended to be unfamiliar with Zhou Miaoli, asking with a doubtful expression,”Daoist fan, you’re looking for me ...”
Before he could finish, he realized that there was an unfamiliar female cultivator beside Zhou Miaoli.
