The First Saint of Dan Dao

Chapter 189 Come on, show it off!

As Tang Yan expected, when he arrived at the Zhen Pavilion, he saw Master Zhen and Master Huo playing chess.

Seeing Tang Yan coming over, Huo Lao pushed the chessboard aside and said, "No more chess. Tang Yan, come and sit over here."

"Junior, I'll just stand here. I heard that Master Huo wanted to see me. What's the matter?" Tang Yan was very polite.

"It's okay, sit down and talk." Without Huo Lao exerting any effort, a chair flew over from a distance.

Tang Yan did not refuse and sat down as he was told.

"Boy, I saw the pills your gang was auctioning today. I wonder where you got those pills from?" Old Huo asked directly.

“Tang Yan, Old Huo has been talking about these pills of yours for a while.” Old Zhen smiled, his eyes also full of curiosity.

Tang Yan hesitated for a moment, knowing that sooner or later everyone would know that he was an alchemist, so he didn't hide it and said bluntly, "They were all made by my students."

"Puff!" Zhen Lao, who was drinking tea nearby, couldn't help but spit out all the tea.

Old Huo was also shocked by Tang Yan's words, and forgot to dodge for a moment, and all the tea sprayed on him.

"Ouch, sorry, Lao Huo, I didn't notice." Zhen Lao apologized hastily, but there was no trace of guilt in his eyes.

"Write this down first, and we'll settle it later!" Staring at Master Zhen, Master Huo eagerly confirmed, "Did you make all of these?"

"It's me." Tang Yan nodded.

"This...how is this possible? You are an alchemist yourself, why didn't you learn alchemy from me at that time?" Old Huo frowned.

"I already have a master in the art of alchemy, it would be inconvenient to seek another one." Tang Yan's eyes rolled, and he immediately brought up his mysterious master.

"You have a master? Who is it?" asked Old Huo.

"I don't even know my master's name. He just taught me the method of alchemy and some recipes and then disappeared without a trace." Tang Yan sighed deeply, as if his master was really missing.

As expected, Huo Lao was successfully fooled by Tang Yan's superb acting skills. He sighed and said, "So you already have a master. But it doesn't matter. If you have any difficulties in alchemy in the future, you can come to me!"

Master Zhen was surprised and asked, "You are also an alchemist? What level are you?"

"It's just the third level now..." Tang Yan replied weakly.

"Fuck!" Even though Zhen Lao was extremely calm, he couldn't help but curse at this moment: "Level 3?"

"Only the third level?" Old Huo's eyes widened. I have been in the martial arts world for nearly a hundred years, and I have never pretended to be so smooth!

A guy who is less than 20 years old said to an alchemist who is over 100 years old but only at the fourth level that he is just a third-level alchemist!

You will die if you don’t pretend!

"Bang!" A pill cauldron was suddenly released from Old Huo's storage space.

"Little guy, just refine a batch of pills." Old Huo said slowly.

Hearing Huo Lao's serious tone, Tang Yan knew that Huo Lao did not believe that he was a third-level alchemist.

Although Mr. Zhen didn't say anything, the expression on his face revealed doubt.

Hey, you actually don't believe in the young master's skills. Well, then let me show you the level of a third-level alchemist who has just started a new account!

Taking a deep breath, Tang Yan walked to the side of the alchemy furnace.

"The alchemy furnace is three inches higher than the ordinary one, which can make the temperature of the flame inside the furnace more stable, but it also increases the difficulty of alchemy. It is difficult to control the true energy. Generally, alchemists below the third level will not choose this kind of alchemy furnace."

“The exterior is made of Miyun iron, which is smooth, dense, unbreakable and has excellent heat insulation properties.

Just by looking at the outer wall, you can tell it is worth a lot of money. Elder Huo’s tripod is really good!”

"The inner cauldron is made of Liuhuan Tianjia. In Tingxiang Country, this kind of material is the top-notch material for the inner wall.

The inner and outer walls are well-made, the technique is natural, and the functional design is perfect. There should be no such skilled craftsmen in Tingxiang Country. It should be that Huo Lao got it from other regions. "

As Tang Yan continued to talk, Elder Huo and Elder Zhen beside him looked more and more surprised.

Old Zhen didn't know the specific origin of the alchemy cauldron, nor what it was made of, but Old Huo took good care of it, so it must be a treasure.

Listening to Tang Yan's analysis, it seemed to be true.

"Old Huo, how many points did Tang Yan guess correctly?" Old Zhen looked at his old friend.

Huo Lao also recovered from his shock, but his tone was still a little unbelievable: "Exactly! Little guy, I am looking forward to your next skill."

Tang Yan did not comment, but smiled and said, "The most popular third-level elixir on the market now is none other than the Liuling Pill. I will refine this one."

"Are you sure?" Elder Zhen was a little surprised when he heard this. Although he was not an alchemist, he had come into contact with quite a few elixirs. Liuling Pill was not the best among the third-grade elixirs, but it was not the worst either. It was of medium grade.

If Tang Yan can successfully refine the Liuling Pill, it will not only prove that he is a third-level alchemist, but also show that he has been a third-level alchemist for some time.

"Well, let's refine it first." Tang Yan nodded.

Seeing Tang Yan's persistence, Elder Huo and Elder Zhen said no more and sat aside to calmly watch Tang Yan's subsequent alchemy.

Tang Yan was not nervous at all and made a fire skillfully.

Seeing that Tang Yan had not yet taken out the herbs but had just lit the fire, Old Huo's brows jumped.

If you don't sort out the herbs first and preheat the furnace, it may overheat and cause mistakes. Therefore, alchemists usually sort the herbs before making elixirs.

Direct firing can only mean two things: The first is that Tang Yan doesn't know how to make pills at all.

The second is that Tang Yan has sufficient confidence in his own abilities.

If he was refining a low-level elixir, Huo Lao would sometimes start the fire first, but to be on the safe side, he would not try it easily.

Seeing how Tang Yan skillfully started the fire and explained his alchemy cauldron just now, Huo Lao would never believe that Tang Yan couldn't make the elixir.

Then, the two elders who were staring at Tang Yan were shocked.

They looked at each other in surprise and noticed the shock in each other's eyes.

Tang Yan, who was originally ordinary, suddenly changed his aura after starting the fire!

Calm, confident, generous, and composed, with a kind of domineering attitude and a natural and spontaneous manner!

Many kinds of temperaments blended together, and Old Huo couldn't help but smack his lips. The aura of this kid actually had the demeanor of a master.

But how is this possible? How old is this guy?

Restraining the shock in his heart, Old Huo put away all his contempt and stared at Tang Yan with wide eyes.

"Fire orchid, seven taels. Phoenix tail root, four taels. Nine-scar leaves, twenty-seven pieces..." The herbs were thrown directly into the alchemy cauldron one by one. Finally, all the twenty-six herbs used to refine the Liuling Pill were thrown into the cauldron one by one by Tang Yan.

Old Huo raised his brows again!

The first step in alchemy is quenching and extraction. The elixir is purified repeatedly to remove the dross and leave the essence of the medicinal material.

The more sophisticated the quenching technique, the more times the extraction is done, the higher the purity of the medicinal materials! The higher the quality of the refined elixir.

This kid actually threw all twenty-six medicinal herbs in there at once?

Don’t you temper the elixir you make?
