The person bound in front of him, upon hearing Li Rui's words, felt as if they had been granted a reprieve and repeatedly expressed their gratitude. The people around them burst into laughter, not expecting this arrogant fellow to still be alive.
While walking, Li Rui learned from the Grand Elder that alchemists often held special statuses and had many people serving them. As a result, many became quite proud, but they did not act recklessly. Currently, this person was behaving in such a manner that the Grand Elder had no choice but to intervene.
Li Rui certainly understood; this "old fox" was able to navigate a situation without offending either party, demonstrating considerable depth!
"Alright, this is the Alchemy Room."
Li Rui frowned repeatedly, thinking it would be something impressive. It turned out to be just a room, and the people around appeared dazed. Could it be that they were so infatuated with alchemy?
Li Rui shook his head. Then he wondered why Ruo Xin hadn't come to find him; it didn't make sense! Had something happened that delayed her?
However, one must not be indecisive when doing things; he needed to take it one step at a time.
"Take a look around first, and then I'll introduce you."
Observing the steps used by the Alchemists around him, they seemed similar to what Li Rui employed himself, with the only difference being their superior control over the fire.
Moreover, within the Dan Furnace, a type of alchemical fire was formed that seemed akin to the flames he possessed.
At the same time, Li Rui noticed a spot that looked somewhat familiar but was unsure where it led.
Following his initial instinct, he moved closer to investigate when suddenly the Grand Elder grabbed his hand.
"This door cannot be opened; there are very terrifying things outside."
Li Rui couldn't help but furrow his brow. What was this "terrifying existence"? It seemed that he had experienced the outside environment before, but it was truly bizarre; why couldn't he remember?
"No, Li Rui shouldn't make a fool of himself," he thought, as he followed the Grand Elder's footsteps to a nearby Alchemist.
"First, take a look at how others practice. Alchemy mainly focuses on the Qi of the earth, the essence of the sun and moon, and the 'fire-playing' techniques during the pill-making process..."
The Grand Elder rambled on, while Li Rui was already intently watching others refine pills, thinking that someone would succeed. Who would have guessed that a loud "bang" from an exploding furnace would erupt, causing laughter from those around.
Li Rui was truly a scapegoat; wherever he went, people seemed to dislike him. Just like with the recent furnace explosion, some felt that Li Rui had no right to laugh, yet it was extremely awkward.
"How about we have a little competition?"
"I don't know how to refine pills; how can I play with you?"
"That's fine. After playing 'house,' there won't be any issues. Let's aim for a second-grade Elixir! Then I'll demonstrate for you all, and afterward, you can try it yourselves." Unexpectedly, at that moment, the Grand Elder interjected directly.
Who didn't know that this statement from the Grand Elder was meant to embarrass Li Rui? Perhaps Li Rui had been in the spotlight recently after defeating Wang Bing at Qi Hai Level Eight with his Three Layers of Qi Sea; his name might have spread to every corner of the Academy.
"Pay attention!"
As the voice fell, the Grand Elder began his demonstration, and this performance reminded Li Rui of something from before.
"No wonder I couldn't remember; just a few days ago, I was wandering around aimlessly. Now seeing his technique seems quite similar to that of an Old Man! Could it be that there is some connection between the two?"
As time passed, half an hour had already gone by, yet in Li Rui's heart, it felt as if a whole century had passed. He had not paid attention to how the Old Man used the furnace last time, but this time he observed closely, and suddenly understood things he had never grasped before.
"Your turn."
Li Rui nodded and used a crimson Alchemical Furnace. However, when it came to selecting the furnace, others laughed out loud, pointing out that this particular furnace was one that should be scrapped.
Yet Li Rui thought this furnace seemed much better than the one in the dormitory, and he was accustomed to using shabby Dan Furnaces! He believed he would have opportunities for more magnificent ones in the future and silently made up his mind.
Following the Grand Elder's technique, Li Rui swiftly added the herbs as if flowing like clouds and water. What puzzled those around him was that he had not ignited any flames for a long time.
In this world, no one refined pills without flames, and no one knew what Li Rui was up to!
The bustling voices around began to express their belief that Li Rui simply could not refine pills. However, the Grand Elder secretly chuckled; his purpose for bringing Li Rui into the group had already been achieved, and he did not want to trouble him again.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Li Rui suddenly opened his eyes like an old monk who had just gained enlightenment, as if he had realized something important—like a hunter who would never let go once he spotted his prey.
Li Rui then gathered the Vital Energy within his body to arrange the herbs. His next actions would likely provoke a round of laughter from those around him.
However, Li Rui ignored them and activated the Azure Dragon Breathing Technique to open his X-Ray Vision, observing everything inside the Dan Furnace. Fortunately, everything was going very smoothly.
This time, he was refining a Calming Pill. Although it was a second-tier pill, the flames in the furnace would not be too violent.
"Success!" With this exclamation, it was done.
The Grand Elder looked at the other person beside Li Rui, and as expected, it was a success.
In contrast, Li Rui was not in a hurry at all; he seemed to be waiting for something. The Grand Elder frowned slightly, not expecting that Li Rui would have such talent. It appeared that he was about to refine a pill, and the entire process was remarkably ordinary, as if he had grasped some secret.
“Pill refined!” With this declaration, those around Li Rui looked at him in disbelief. In fact, Li Rui himself felt uncertain, his throat tightening with tension.
Li Rui walked lightly towards the Dan Furnace, and the surrounding air suddenly became quiet; perhaps this was a test.
At the moment he opened the Dan Furnace, Li Rui felt a surge of joy—could there really be such a method? He had succeeded, and it seemed that the quality of this Calming Pill was much better than the previous one. This was indeed an improvement!
The Grand Elder had originally intended to temper Li Rui's sharpness, but who would have thought that after this comparison, his reputation would soar once again? Not only was he talented in combat, but now he also excelled in alchemy. Truly, people could outshine others to the point of envy!
“Li Rui wins!” the Grand Elder announced helplessly.
Those around seemed somewhat dissatisfied, but the facts were laid out before them. Moreover, everyone had been watching Li Rui during the alchemy process; any attempt to cheat would have been impossible.
