Chapter 62: Everyone in Medicine King Valley discusses, endures humiliation
In the back garden, Xiao Wusheng is already waiting for Yu Xian.
There are two giant cranes standing beside him, each about ten feet tall.
Yu Xian also recognizes this crane, which is the Wanli Crane from the Spirit Feeding House.
Its flying speed is not fast, but it is durable and gentle. It can fly for several days with just a few elixirs.
It is the favorite mount for cultivators below the Golden Core stage.
As for the Golden Core stage, the speed of magic weapons flying is more than ten times faster than this Wanli Crane, so it is completely useless.
This time, Yu Xian and Xiao Wusheng need this Wanli Crane to go to Medicine King Valley, which is 30,000 miles away.
Otherwise, if he relies on flying by himself, even if Xiao Wusheng is a great perfection in foundation building, he can't make it within five days.
Seeing Yu Xian coming, Xiao Wusheng nodded and said, "Let's go."
After that, he flew and stood on the back of a Wanli Crane, sitting cross-legged.
Yu Xian hummed, and also climbed on the back of another Wanli Crane, sitting cross-legged.
Xiao Wusheng waved his hand and cast a spell, and an illusory formation rose at the entrance of the back garden. He left a message: "I have something to do and will be out for half a month. Please wait for your visit."
The formation was agitated and recorded his voice.
Then Xiao Wusheng patted the neck of the Wanli Crane and said with a smile: "He'er, let's go!"
With a crane cry, the two Wanli Cranes spread their wings at the same time, which were three feet long. With just one flap, they took off into the air and headed west.
Thousands of feet high, the strong wind whistled.
Yu Xian flew at high altitude twice before, once with Quan Dao and once with Song Xingtian.
The magic weapons of both of them would shield all strong winds, so it was very stable.
But now, although the Wanli Crane flew very steadily, the strong wind blew in the face, and the people who were swept on the spot couldn't open their eyes. How could it be a bit unrestrained and elegant, like an immortal riding a crane?
On the contrary, Xiao Wusheng raised his hands and made a seal, which was impervious to wind and rain, and he looked as steady as an old dog.
Yu Xian had no choice but to turn around and sit facing the back of Wanlihe's tail.
Although the strong wind blew on his back, he didn't feel anything with the protection of the Five Treasures Silver Dragon Armor.
He exhaled slowly, looked at the ground below, and after a moment, closed his eyes and continued to practice.
Anyway, he didn't have to worry about anything with his master leading the way.
He flew like this for four days, and fed Wanlihe a spiritual pill in the middle.
Until the morning of the fifth day, from the sky, there was a huge depression at the end of the sky, covering hundreds of miles, like a basin!
The rolling spiritual energy was endless, and a huge formation was emitting brilliance, like a cover, covering this basin!
This valley of depression! It is the Medicine King Valley!
"Disciple, the Medicine King Valley is coming."
Seeing this valley, Xiao Wusheng's eyes showed a touch of emotion.
Upon hearing this, Yu Xian turned around, facing the strong wind, squinted his eyes and looked forward, nodded and said: "It is really the basin valley, the Medicine King Valley, it is well-deserved."
"This basin is unique and has a strong spiritual energy. It is a natural medicine garden. There are spiritual herbs everywhere within a radius of 600 miles. It is said that when the Medicine King Valley was established, it paid a huge price to occupy this place!"
Although Xiao Wusheng did not like the Medicine King Valley, he was still extremely envious of the terrain of the Medicine King Valley.
Any alchemist would like this kind of place.
It's just that he likes this place, not the Medicine King Valley.
Yu Xian is also an alchemist, so he naturally understands what this 600-mile basin means, and nodded to show his agreement.
But at this time, suddenly a crane cry came from the distant side of the sky, which caused Xiao Wusheng and the Wanli Crane under Yu Xian to cry in response at the same time, as if they were ready to fight.
Xiao Wusheng and Yu Xian turned their heads to look.
In the far south sky, two Wanli Cranes appeared quickly, and a loud laugh came from a distance.
"Hey! Isn't this the great alchemist Xiao!? I never expected that you would come to participate in the alchemy conference of Yaowang Valley this time? I still remember that in the alchemy competition 20 years ago, someone was slapped in the face, didn't he swear not to come? Hahaha!"
The voice was mocking, laughing, and contemptuous!
Yu Xian narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
On the contrary, Xiao Wusheng laughed and said freely: "It's all old things, why keep it in mind? I am very surprised that Brother Guo can keep remembering it."
The two Wanli Cranes gradually flew closer, one sat a middle-aged man, and the other sat a young woman.
The middle-aged man still had a mocking smile and nodded, saying, "Don't take it to heart! Even if Brother Xiao comes again this time, aren't you afraid of going through it again?"
Xiao Wusheng smiled lightly and said, "Since I don't have the heart to compete, how can I go through it again? Brother Guo, don't go through my old path again."
When the middle-aged man heard this, his smile froze slightly, and a displeased light appeared in his eyes. He was about to speak.
But at this moment, a crisp scolding sounded.
"Oh, it's a joke. My master is a genius in alchemy. How can an old man compare to him? The old man is not good at learning, so it's better to say less."
The young woman looked at Xiao Wusheng with a cold and arrogant face, and the old man in her words was very obvious.
Xiao Wusheng's expression turned slightly cold and he said nothing.
He could still ridicule the middle-aged man a few times, but if he talked back to the offensive words of a junior, it would be a loss of face.
Yu Xian did not speak either, but only glanced coldly at the young woman and took note of it.
"Asshole."
The middle-aged man's eyes flashed with pride, but he pretended to scold: "Who are you? How dare you interrupt!?"
The young woman snorted and said: "Master! I'm not wrong! You are just too kind! Alchemy relies on technology! Those with poor technology dare to take advantage of their seniority! That's hateful!"
The middle-aged man smiled awkwardly, and there was nothing he could do to his beloved disciple, so he had to explain: "Brother Xiao, don't blame me, my disciple has been spoiled by me, let's say goodbye, see you in Yaowang Valley!"
After that, he hurriedly urged the Wanli Crane, took the young woman and quickly passed, and went to Yaowang Valley.
Looking at the two Wanli Cranes gradually going away and landing in Yaowang Valley, Xiao Wusheng exhaled and suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Disciple, that man is the great alchemist of Xuantian Sect, Guo Pin, a genius in alchemy, 81 years old this year. In terms of alchemy skills, Master was not as good as him 20 years ago."
Xiao Wusheng spoke slowly, as if talking to himself: "That girl is right, I shouldn't talk back... Alchemy depends on skills, just like the realm of cultivators, weak is weak, and if you are not as good as others, you have to bear the shame of being inferior to others!"
Yu Xian's eyes trembled slightly, and the coldness in his eyes was like an ice pond!
But now, he can't help the master at all!
He can't even say comforting words! If he says it, it's deceiving himself!
"And the only way to get back the shame! Is to become stronger than them!"
Xiao Wusheng's voice was unwilling, looking at Yu Xian and said: "Master will never be able to surpass them, but you will definitely be better than that girl! You will definitely be better than everyone! Master believes in his own eyes!"
Yu Xian raised his head, looked at Xiao Wusheng, and nodded slowly and heavily!
Is this kidnapping at the request of the elders?
Do you force your child to do something you can't do yourself?
If so!
Yu Xian is willing to be kidnapped!
He will do it!
"No, no, no, no..."
But after Xiao Wusheng finished speaking, he suddenly shook his head and looked at Yu Xian seriously and said, "I was so angry... Disciple, don't get upset. Just pretend you didn't hear what I just said! Just be down-to-earth, take one step at a time, take your time, and don't be in a hurry! Do you understand!?"
"Disciple knows."
Yu Xian nodded again, his eyes calm.
Xiao Wusheng then showed a relieved smile.
A disciple like him is ten thousand times better than Guo Pin's female disciple!
Is it shameful?
Let's wait another hundred years!
The two Wanli Cranes soon arrived at Yaowang Valley and landed.
Yaowang Valley holds an alchemy conference every five years, which is an alchemy event.
Alchemists from all the major sects and well-known alchemists among the independent cultivators flew in from all directions, either flying or riding.
Hundreds of disciples from Medicine King Valley at the entrance of the valley kept entertaining them.
As soon as Yu Xian and Xiao Wusheng landed, four disciples came running over, bowed and asked, "Excuse me, senior, do you have an invitation?"
Those with invitations are at one level.
Alchemists who come here for fame can also enter Medicine King Valley without invitations, but they are at another level.
Xiao Wusheng raised his hand and handed over the invitation letter, smiling, "I am Xiao Wusheng from Baiyun Sect, and this is my disciple."
The leading disciple of Medicine King Valley took the invitation, took a look at it, and bowed, saying, "It turns out to be Senior Baiyun Sect, please come in quickly!"
Then two disciples led Xiao Wusheng and Yu Xian inside, and the other two led Wanlihe to another place.
The six hundred li basin can be seen as concave from the sky, but when walking on the ground, nothing can be noticed.
Walking into the entrance of Medicine King Valley.
All kinds of pavilions, waterside pavilions and flower cities are in sight, with mist and rain curling up, like a lake.
The rolling spiritual energy is overwhelming, and it is three times more dense than that of Baiyun Sect!
Walking along the avenue, there are countless spiritual herbs on both sides, and medicine gardens are everywhere!
The rich medicinal fragrance gathers, like a big pill surrounding the world, and taking a breath can help improve your cultivation.
After walking for about a while, the two disciples bowed and said, "Senior, please come in. Inside is the inner valley. The juniors can't go in. Senior, go in and someone will receive you."
After that, the two disciples returned along the road.
Although Xiao Wusheng hasn't been here for twenty years, Medicine King Valley has not changed in twenty years.
Therefore, he just stepped forward with a familiar way, turned a door, and it was another new world.
The inner valley is more than twice as dense as the outer valley, with hundreds of flowers blooming and hundreds of herbs lush.
There is a large square in the distance, covering several miles. In the center, a Taoist statue sits cross-legged, pointing at a huge alchemy furnace.
On the square, hundreds of cultivators are communicating with each other, and the voices are endless.
Xiao Wusheng led Yu Xian to the square. No one noticed it, but the monks of Medicine King Valley who were welcoming the guests had already seen it.
With a long laugh, a middle-aged Taoist stepped forward and said with surprise: "Brother Xiao! I didn't expect you to come, rare guest! Rare guest!"
Xiao Wusheng looked at the middle-aged man, bowed and smiled: "Friend Wang, I didn't come here several times because I had something to do. Now this time, I have to come to participate no matter what. After all, the Alchemy Conference is a grand gathering for alchemists of my generation!"
The middle-aged Taoist brows twitched slightly, and nodded with a smile: "Of course I can understand if you have something to do. Brother Xiao can come this time, which has given enough face to my Medicine King Valley. Please!"
Xiao Wusheng smiled, stopped talking, and just walked forward.
Soon, he came to the square and saw many alchemists around him. Everyone who saw Xiao Wusheng and knew him stopped communicating almost at the same time, with surprise in their eyes.
"Brother Dao, what are you looking at?"
"Hey, Xiao Shaanpi is here."
"What?"
"Hahaha, you have only participated in two alchemy conferences. I don't know that in that time twenty years ago, Xiao Wusheng didn't even have the face to lose, so he got the nickname Xiao Shaanpi. In the end, he vowed never to attend the alchemy conference again. Unexpectedly, Here we go again."
"Brother Dao, what's going on? Who is he? What happened back then? Tell me, tell me."
"Hey, let's talk about the alchemy conference twenty years ago...
The surroundings were only slightly quiet, and then all kinds of noisy sounds started to sound. They gathered in all directions, like a sea wave, coming one after another!
It turned out that Xiao Wusheng lost in the alchemy competition twenty years ago, but he accused others of cheating and asked for a rematch, but he lost again and again, and lost again and again! In the end, he started from second place and lost until he didn't even make the top ten!
This leaves a big joke...
Yu Xian's face was as cold as ice. Only now did he understand how humiliated the master had been and how determined he was just to bring him here...
He believed that that person must have cheated in the first place!
But if he loses again later, it means that the master is upset!
Chaos after chaos, until it is out of control...
Xiao Wusheng was calm as usual, walking over, and would take the initiative to say hello when meeting acquaintances.
Soon, he came to the center of the square.
Several men and women stepped forward. After all, Xiao Wusheng was the great alchemist of Baiyun Sect, so he had to give him the face he deserved.
One of them, far away, smiled and said: "Friend Daoist Xiao, rare guest, I have sent you invitations four times in a row. Finally, my hard work has paid off. This fifth time, if you are willing to come, you won't still be resentful." That happened back then?”
These six people are the great alchemists of the Foundation Establishment Stage of Medicine King Valley.
The person who spoke was named Li Huyang.
Xiao Wusheng looked at Li Huyang, with a hidden deep hatred in his eyes, but said with a smile: "I am willing to admit defeat, how can I be resentful? I didn't have time the last four times because I had something to do, why don't I come this time? That’s it.”
"Brother Dao is really magnanimous."
Li Huyang said with a smile: "It's just that this time, brother Taoist must have prepared a new elixir to defeat the four of them, right?"
"No, no, I haven't made any progress since twenty years ago. I can no longer produce any good elixirs. I am just resting on my laurels."
Xiao Wusheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "I came here this time just to take a look at this alchemy event. After all, how many more times can I see it? You think so."
When everyone heard this, the cynicism on their faces faded a lot.
Xiao Wusheng is indeed quite old. Twenty years ago, he was more than one hundred and ten years old. Now he is probably almost one hundred and fourty, right?
Judging from the age limit of 200 years for foundation building, and the normal age of death at 178 years old, he has indeed not been able to see it a few times.
Li Huyang's smile also froze for a moment, and after a moment he nodded and said, "What Brother Dao said is that if Brother Dao wants to see it, just see it."
Forget it, a dying old guy has no hope of breaking through the golden elixir, so let’s not waste any more words with him.
Yu Xian watched calmly and carefully, completely remembering Li Huyang's appearance!
You can already tell from the meaning of the words that he was the one who cheated and defeated his master back then...
Li Huyang, on the other hand, quickly walked up to a high platform and said loudly: "In half an hour, the alchemy conference will officially start. Just like in previous years, the final reward of this alchemy conference is still an elixir from our Medicine King Valley. Refined by the master, Jin Yuan Dan!”
"Jin Yuandan!"
"It's really Jin Yuandan!"
"The one who helps build the foundation and perfect the elixir is Jin Yuan Dan!"
"It seems I came right this time!"
"Hehehe! Jin Yuandan! I will definitely get it!"
…
Following Li Huyang's words, hundreds of alchemists, most of whom were casual practitioners, all showed excitement!
And the more than twenty alchemists from the other five major sects also had bright eyes.
Only Xiao Wusheng looked calm. He no longer had any desire for Jin Yuan Dan.
"Disciple, don't be angry. Watch and study hard. If anger cannot be transformed into motivation, then it is incompetent rage. Don't behave like a teacher..."
Xiao Wusheng looked at the high platform and spoke calmly, even with a smile on his face.
But when Yu Xian looked at it, this smile was full of bitterness.
On the high platform, Li Huyang raised his hand, suppressed the noise, and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoists, don't worry, we will wait for another half hour! Some Taoist friends have something to do, so it is normal to be late, so we can take advantage of the opportunity to wait for others. Now, let me explain the rules to the many new fellow Taoists!”
Li Huyang raised his hand and said: "It's called an alchemy conference, and it's about making alchemy to make friends! In this alchemy, all the fellow Taoists have their own skills! To catch the right pair, you need all the spiritual grass materials, and I, the Medicine King Valley, will provide them! The refined elixirs Different grades depend on quality! The one with the highest quality will win! Let’s finally choose the winner!
When everyone heard this, they all had different expressions.
Those who have participated already know the rules. After five years of preparation, they also understand how to do it and are very confident.
Those who have just come to participate are not sure, and secretly think about showing off their special skills.
As for the local foundation-building disciples in Yaowang Valley, their expressions were as usual.
In most of the alchemy conferences in previous years, the winners were Yaowang Valley’s own foundation-building disciples, and this time, there will be no exception!
This is, after learning these casual cultivators, the alchemy techniques that the sect's alchemists have figured out will not let the Jinyuan Dan leak out!
"Of course! Even if the loser doesn't get the Jin Yuan Dan, there are several fourth-level elixirs available. The top two to the top ten will all be rewarded! Fellow Taoists, please remember that in the alchemy conference, elixirs are used to make friends. Don't There will be friction and resentment! Hahaha!”
Li Huyang laughed and explained the rules and rewards clearly.
Everyone is gearing up and waiting for the conference to start.
Half an hour can be said to be long or short.
That was when everyone was thinking about what elixir they should refine at the beginning and how much skill they had.
Seven more casual cultivators came one after another, and finally, the road leading to the inner valley was suddenly blocked by a ban!
With the road being blocked, it means that no one can enter the inner valley and come to this square.
Li Huyang raised his hand slightly, pointed at the big table beside him and said: "Fellow Taoists! The alchemy conference is about to begin! Taoist friends who want to compete for Jin Yuan Dan are invited to come up and get their lots. Those who don't want to fight for it are welcome." Friends, please come and see me, let’s exchange alchemy skills with each other and contribute to my great cause of alchemy!”
Upon hearing this, hundreds of monks came immediately. A female monk handed out bamboo sticks and led them one by one.
In addition, there were two Taoists who, at some point, sat cross-legged on the sculpture in the center of the square, looking down.
They are the golden elixir elders of Yaowang Valley, and they have only one purpose, and that is to supervise!
In the alchemy competition, it is natural to make alchemy!
If someone cheats with Cheng Dan, they will be severely punished!
It's just that it's really ridiculous for locals to supervise locals...
Xiao Wusheng stood still, and naturally Yu Xian did the same.
Guo Pin, on the other hand, looked determined to win as he went up to receive the lottery.
As for the young woman beside him, she turned to look at Xiao Wusheng.
She didn't know whether it was because she was being mean or because she was sick. She suddenly sneered and said: "It is said that the older a person gets, the less timid they become. Some old people dare not do anything except relying on their old age. I didn't believe it before, but now I really believe it." No doubt, tsk tsk, you don’t even dare to participate in the competition, are you really here to make people laugh? You don’t want to lose face, old man.”
The young woman's vicious words made Xiao Wusheng tremble slightly. It was really a shame and humiliation to be ridiculed by this junior!
Yu Xian looked up at her.
She happened to look at Yu Xian, with disdain on her face, and sneered: "What are you looking at? I dug your eyes out! Not convinced? An old loser teaches a little loser, and it's useless for the waste to look at it! It's useless to learn for a hundred years. Can’t compare to me studying for one year!”
A cold light shone in Yu Xian's eyes. He took a step forward and was about to say something, but his shoulder was pressed by Xiao Wusheng's hand.
"Don't act on impulse."
Xiao Wusheng's voice suppressed the anger in Yu Xian's heart. He took a deep breath and stepped back.
"Hehehehe."
The young woman completely sneered, her eyes full of sneer.
"Li'er, why are you laughing?"
Guo Pin came back from drawing lots. Seeing the young woman sneering, he asked in confusion.
At the same time, he followed her gaze and looked at Xiao Wusheng, frowning and saying, "What's wrong? Are they bullying you?"
Li'er shook her head and said proudly: "That little waste wanted to offend me, but the old waste had the self-awareness to stop him, otherwise he would be embarrassed again!"
Guo Pin narrowed his eyes, looked at Xiao Wusheng and said, "Brother Xiao Dao, did your disciple offend Li'er? Ask him to come over and apologize!"
