Bangu Emperor

Chapter 26: Named disciple

Views:

In the quaint quiet room, the air was filled with incense, and many scattered elixirs and books were placed around. In the center, there was a red alchemy cauldron, from which a faint medicinal fragrance wafted.

"Please take a seat, my dear friend. I wonder who your master is?"

Jiao Mu asked Ling Xiao to sit down and smiled slightly.

Ling Xiao's words just now showed his extraordinary talent in alchemy, which made Jiao Mu guess that perhaps Ling Xiao was a disciple of those big sects or big holy places. Otherwise, how could he have such an enchanting talent

"I have no sect or school, and all this knowledge about alchemy is just something I figured out on my own!" Ling Xiao said with a faint smile.

"My friend, you are too modest. How about we discuss the Dao of Alchemy?"

Jiao Mu thought that Ling Xiao didn't want to reveal his origins, but when he heard Ling Xiao mention the Seven Mysterious Treasure Pills, he became impatient and couldn't help but invite him.

"Oh well!"

Ling Xiao frowned, but still agreed.

After all, the spiritual medicine needed for the Dragon Transformation Pill is very valuable. In consideration of the fact that this old man provided him with the spiritual medicine, Ling Xiao decided to reluctantly give him some guidance.

In the quiet room, Ling Xiao and Jiao Mu began to discuss the pharmacology of alchemy.

Who is Ling Xiao? The supreme master of alchemy 10,000 years ago, even if he has no cultivation now, any little truth of alchemy he reveals makes Jiao Mu astonished.

At the beginning, Jiao Mu could still get in a word or two, but as time went on, the shock and respect on Jiao Mu's face became more and more intense.

In the end, he simply sat on the ground, like a student attending a lecture, and listened in fascination to Ling Xiao's talk about alchemy knowledge.

A few hours passed in a flash.

When Ling Xiao finished his last sentence, Jiao Mu was shocked. He then took a deep breath and bowed deeply to Ling Xiao.

"Hearing your words today is better than ten years of hard work! Please accept me as your disciple. I am willing to serve you at your service!"

Jiao Mu had been completely conquered by Ling Xiao, his eyes filled with extremely fanatical admiration.

From what Ling Xiao said just now, he even felt that the bottleneck that had been stagnant for many years was showing signs of loosening.

Perhaps it won’t be long before I can break through to become a mid-level alchemy master!

"I'm not some master, my name is Ling Xiao! If you want to be my disciple, forget it with your talent!"

Ling Xiao looked at Jiao Mu with a helpless look and shook his head.

Are you kidding? Which of Ling Xiao's disciples in his previous life didn't have extraordinary talent? Some broke through the realm of kings and princes at a young age, with unparalleled combat power, or became the supreme master of the alchemy path, famous throughout the world.

Jiao Mu was almost a hundred years old when he reached the level of a master alchemist. Naturally, this aptitude was extremely ordinary in Ling Xiao's eyes.

"Mr. Ling, if you don't agree to me, I won't get up!"

Jiao Mu was extremely shameless and actually knelt directly on the ground, as if he would not get up unless Ling Xiao agreed.

If someone else saw this, I'm afraid their eyes would fall out.

Who is Jiao Mu? He is a well-known figure in the ancient country of Dahuang, and a master of alchemy that the king would treat with courtesy. But he actually cried and rushed to take a young boy as his teacher

"Master, I have prepared the spiritual medicine that kid wants... Master, what are you doing?"

At this moment, Liu Piaopiao pushed the door open and walked in, pouting and looking reluctant, but when she saw Jiao Mu kneeling in front of Ling Xiao, her face changed instantly.

"You little bastard, what kind of magic potion did you feed my master? I... I will kill you!"

Liu Piaopiao's temper suddenly flared up, and the sky-blue sword behind her was unsheathed, flashing with a cold light, like a stream of light, stabbing towards Ling Xiao.

"Piao Piao, you are so outrageous!"

Jiao Mu's face changed, and he suddenly grabbed with his big hand. The void seemed to condense, and a powerful aura spread out. It seemed as if a transparent wall of air appeared in front of Liu Piaopiao, making it impossible for the sword in her hand to move forward any further.

"Grandmaster?!"

Ling Xiao's eyes flashed. He didn't expect that the old man in front of him, who looked rather wretched, was actually a powerful Grandmaster, not even as powerful as Nangong Xuan.

"Please forgive me, Master Ling. Piaopiao is young and ignorant. Please don't bother with her! This is the spiritual medicine that Master needs. And these one million high-quality spiritual stones are my pocket money for Master!"

Jiao Mu took the jade box full of elixirs from Liu Piaopiao, then took out a storage bag and respectfully presented it to Ling Xiao.

"What?! You want to take this boy as your master? Master, are you getting old and confused?"

When Liu Piaopiao heard Jiao Mu's words, she exclaimed, her face full of disbelief.

"This old man is quite sensible!"

Ling Xiao secretly said in his heart that all the spiritual medicines he needed for the Dragon Transformation Pill were ready, and this old guy looked quite rich. Nangong Xuan would feel extremely painful to spend one million high-quality spiritual stones, but this old guy took it out without blinking an eye.

Moreover, what Ling Xiao saw in Jiao Mu's eyes was only enthusiasm and purity for the way of alchemy, without even the slightest impurity.

For some reason, Ling Xiao's heart softened.

"Okay! In that case, I will reluctantly accept you as a nominal disciple. Whether you can become a full disciple in the future depends on your luck!"

Ling Xiao frowned, but finally agreed reluctantly.

Seeing Ling Xiao's expression, Liu Piaopiao almost vomited blood.

Master Jiaomu gave Lingxiao spiritual medicine and spiritual stones and wanted him to take Lingxiao as his master. Lingxiao actually looked reluctant and only accepted Jiaomu as a nominal disciple

Where does this kid get his confidence from

But Jiao Mu was overjoyed and respectfully bowed three times and nine times to Ling Xiao.

"Disciple Jiaomu, I pay my respects to the Master!"

He did not feel the slightest bit shy or embarrassed to take a young boy as his teacher. With his enthusiasm and belief in the Dao of Alchemy, he would surely be able to reach the pinnacle in the end even if he did not have enough talent.

"Get up!"

Ling Xiao waved his hand, and his attitude towards Jiao Mu became much better.

"Master, may I ask, you took these spiritual medicines, are you trying to refine the legendary Dragon Transformation Pill?"

Jiao Mu asked with some anticipation.

"The legendary one? Could it be that even the Dragon Transformation Pill has been lost?"

Ling Xiao frowned, and looking at Jiao Mu's fanatical and expectant eyes, he knew that the recipe of the Dragon Transformation Pill might have been lost.

Unexpectedly, ten thousand years later, with so much changes happening in this world, the level of alchemy has declined to such a level.

"Master, you don't know that it is said that the Tiger Subduing Pill and Dragon Transformation Pill are the two most suitable elixirs for the early stage of martial arts. They can cleanse the marrow and remove the hair, making people reborn and improving their aptitude. It is very magical. The Tiger Subduing Pill can make people have tough tiger bones, and the Dragon Transformation Pill can make people have diamond dragon bones.

However, the recipe of the Dragon Transformation Pill has long been lost, and only the recipe of the Tiger Subduing Pill is still circulated, but it is also extremely precious. In the Great Wilderness Ancient Country, it is said that only the Dharma Protector Master has the recipe of the Tiger Subduing Pill. Usually, a Tiger Subduing Pill that is circulated is worth a million gold!"

Jiao Mu sighed.
