Chapter 214
Lingxiao Daoist's face showed a moment of astonishment.
Before long, a spirit beast pill appeared in front of him, similar to the one he had just refined.
Although its appearance was not as perfect as the one he had refined himself, it was extremely rare to be able to refine it.
And now, Lu Yu succeeded.
Lingxiao Daoist looked at Lu Yu, whose spiritual power had been depleted and whose face was slightly pale, and for a moment, he could hardly believe it.
In fact, he had prepared two test questions in advance, one difficult and one easy.
If Lu Yu's progress in cultivation was slow, he would use a simple pill formula to enhance Lu Yu's confidence and encourage him.
If Lu Yu's progress in cultivation was rapid, he would use a more difficult pill formula to warn him against arrogance.
Just now, he used the more difficult pill formula, and he never thought that Lu Yu would succeed on his first attempt.
You should know that when he was faced with such a test question, he failed as soon as he started refining.
His expression became more serious, his thoughts gradually diverged, and when he finally focused, he discovered an astonishing answer.
Seeing Lingxiao Daoist's change in expression, Wanyue Fairy inwardly exclaimed in alarm.
Since she had known him, she rarely saw Lingxiao Daoist in a daze.
But she didn't interrupt rashly, instead she glanced at the spirit beast pill that Lu Yu had just refined.
After Lu Yu finished refining, he picked up Lingxiao Daoist's spirit beast pill and compared it carefully with the one he had refined himself.
In the end, a complex expression appeared on his face.
Obviously, he noticed that the appearance of the spirit beast pill he had refined was not as good as Lingxiao Daoist's.
Could it be that he was still dissatisfied with this result?
Wanyue Fairy was secretly surprised.
Even an outsider like her could see how rare it was to successfully refine it on the first attempt.
She couldn't help but glance at Lingxiao Daoist again.
At this moment, Lingxiao Daoist finally came back to his senses.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, bring the spirit beast pill you refined for me to inspect."
With a wave of his hand, the spirit beast pill fell into his palm.
He carefully examined it, then smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, have you seen this pill formula before?"
"Senior is wise. I did see this pill formula in the 'Summary of Spirit Pills' before."
Lingxiao Daoist nodded slightly and asked again, "Have you ever tried to refine it?"
Lu Yu shook his head in response.
"Before I learned the basic techniques of refining spirit beast pills, I saw this pill formula, but I didn't understand it, so I never tried to refine it."
"Now, can you understand the 'Summary of Spirit Pills'?"
"I am confident that I have no major problems."
Lu Yu smiled and saluted.
Boom!
Lingxiao Daoist was secretly surprised and asked, "How confident are you? How many layers of the 'Summary of Spirit Pills' can you understand?"
"One hundred percent."
Lingxiao Daoist smiled with relief, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, have you ever taken someone as..."
Lingxiao Daoist's words were interrupted.
Wanyue Fairy quickly stepped forward and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, up to which realm have you cultivated with the 'Summary of Spirit Pills' that I gave you?"
Lu Yu frowned slightly upon hearing this.
It was obvious that this Nascent Soul cultivator, Lingxiao Daoist, had the intention of taking him as his disciple. He didn't know why Wanyue Fairy wanted to stop it.
But he still respectfully saluted and replied, "I have already understood the Foundation Building section."
Wanyue Fairy nodded slightly, her black tight-fitting clothes outlining her curves, her eyes filled with joy.
After a while, she glanced at Lingxiao Daoist and smiled, "Senior, I have been bothering you for a long time today. I will take Fellow Daoist Lu back to the Immortal Mansion to avoid disturbing your cultivation."
"Hold on!"
Lingxiao Daoist quickly stopped her.
Then, he used a secret method to transmit his voice to Wanyue Fairy, his face showing a hint of urgency, no longer as calm as before.
"He is a pill refiner. Although his foundation has been solidified, he still needs continuous guidance in the future."
"Can Wanyue help him with these things?"
Princess Wan Yue looked at Daoist Lingxiao with deep meaning.
Daoist Lingxiao hurriedly spoke, "Sister Wan Yue, you have only been under the protection of Fellow Daoist Lu for a year. You must not act recklessly."
"Such an outstanding talent should have the best guidance!"
"We have known each other for many years. If Sister Wan Yue is willing to give up, not only will I waive the fee I asked you before, but I am also willing to pay a price that satisfies you."
"What do you think?"
Princess Wan Yue remained silent for a long time before transmitting her voice, "Before we part, Fellow Daoist Lu received a reward of fifty thousand merit points from the Shang Clan."
"Fifty thousand merit points, what does it represent? I believe Senior knows better than I do."
"Moreover, I believe I can arrange things properly for Fellow Daoist Lu."
"For example, I can ask Senior to guide him in refining the Spirit Beast Pill."
"And, as it turns out, my choice has been proven right. How can I just let Fellow Daoist Lu go now?"
"Furthermore, with Senior's connections and resources, how will you arrange things for Fellow Daoist Lu when he goes to the main building of the Qingyun Shang Clan in the future?"
Upon hearing this, Daoist Lingxiao's expression froze.
Fifty thousand merit points.
This is not something that ordinary Tianji guest cultivators can obtain.
A slight smile appeared on his face as Daoist Lingxiao regretfully said, "Forget it, I indeed didn't consider it thoroughly."
"Our fate is ultimately shallow."
But at the same time, he felt somewhat fortunate.
At least, he and Lu Yu will establish a good relationship in this year.
After the secret transmission between the two ended, Princess Wan Yue softly said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, let's go back."
...
Back in their own immortal courtyard, Lu Yu asked in confusion, "Princess Wan Yue."
"When we were at Senior Lingxiao's place, did he intend for me to become his disciple?"
Princess Wan Yue spoke frankly, "Yes."
"But the matter of choosing a master must be done with extreme caution."
"Your cultivation is still shallow, and who knows what great opportunities you may encounter in ten years."
"After ten years, when everything is settled, it won't be too late to choose a good master."
Lu Yu nodded, feeling that what Princess Wan Yue said seemed reasonable.
Princess Wan Yue continued, "Daoist Lingxiao has also answered your questions and guided you in refining the Spirit Beast Pill. As a Nascent Soul cultivator, he is justified in being your master."
"However, the situation within the Qingyun Shang Clan is constantly changing and complex."
"And involving yourself in those connections too early would be unwise."
"I underestimated Fellow Daoist's talent in refining the Spirit Beast Pill before."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have been so hasty."
"But now that things have come to this, we should think about how to quickly improve your skills."
"Don't forget, the Ten-Year Tianji Guest Examination is your top priority. If you don't cherish it, time will pass like a fleeting moment."
"Your current primary task is to improve your rank as a pill refiner in order to strive for promotion as a Tianji guest."
Lu Yu nodded slightly.
It should be noted that there are four ranks for Tianji guest cultivators.
Although he achieved good results in the previous assessment, he was only the lowest rank, a Earth-rank Tianji guest cultivator.
Moving forward, there is also the Scatter Three-rank.
It is said that the Immortal-rank Tianji guest cultivators among them are extremely rare.
After successfully advancing, the resources he can access may far exceed the present.
The two of them continued to exchange for a long time.
When a ray of morning light pierced through the sky, they finally parted ways.
Lu Yu entered the quiet room to cultivate, and at ten o'clock in the morning, the jade slip used to communicate with his old mother in the storage belt suddenly lit up.
