Chapter 5 Alchemy Hall
Danguan.
There was a lot of traffic and people coming and going.
As soon as Lu Chen appeared, he immediately became the focus.
"Isn't that Lu Chen? Wasn't he crippled by the city lord? Why did he come to the Danguan?"
"Maybe, he wants to find elixirs to restore his cultivation."
"Nonsense, his Dantian is crippled, his martial veins are ruined, and even the Daluo Jindan can't save him."
"Hehe, the Danguan has a close relationship with the city lord's mansion. He has offended the city lord, so it would be strange if the Danguan would let him in."
A series of critical voices rang out.
Lu Chen turned a deaf ear and turned a blind eye.
There were many people who gloated over other people's misfortunes, and he was too lazy to pay attention to them.
"Stop."
The guard of the Danguan stopped Lu Chen and shouted unceremoniously, "Mortals and cripples are not allowed to enter!"
Lu Chen's eyes turned cold and he was a little angry.
There is a rule in the Danguan that non-martial artists are not allowed to enter.
When did another rule that cripples are not allowed to enter?
This guard was obviously targeting him.
The city lord must be behind this.
Zhou He!
Sooner or later, you will be ruined and die without a burial place.
The most urgent thing is to buy the awakening dragon grass, not to bother with a watchdog.
Lu Chen suppressed his anger, did not waste words, and directly released his breath.
"Fifth level of the body refining realm!"
The guard was dumbfounded.
The crowd watching the excitement was also dumbfounded.
Didn't Lu Chen become a waste?
How long has it been?
Only one day.
How can he still have cultivation?
Where does cultivation come from?
It's simply subverting three views.
There was a silence at the scene.
"Can I go in?"
Lu Chen asked lightly.
"It's just an illusion. Who knows whether your cultivation is real or fake?"
The guard came to his senses, snorted, and refused to let Lu Chen in.
"Since he has cultivation, he should be allowed in."
"When can a guard change the rules of the alchemy hall?"
"I think the owner of the alchemy hall should just let the guard take charge."
Dissatisfied voices rang out in the crowd.
Indeed, at the beginning, these people just wanted to see Lu Chen's excitement.
But when Lu Chen exposed his cultivation, some people thought differently.
Even if he was only at the fifth level of the physical training realm, he was still a medium-level existence in Shuangmu City.
Among these people, most of them were still below the fifth level of the physical training realm.
The surging crowd also made the guards very embarrassed.
But the guards received instructions from above and refused to give in.
"Did someone ask you to stop me?"
Lu Chen said coldly.
"Stop talking nonsense, you don't want to get out, right? I'll throw you out."
The guard was so ashamed that he opened his five fingers and grabbed Lu Chen.
This grab was three thousand pounds of force, and the flesh would definitely be torn apart if caught.
There was a cry of surprise from the crowd.
The guard was at the sixth level of the physical training realm, while Lu Chen was only at the fifth level. How could he resist?
The next moment, everyone was dumbfounded.
The guard was caught by Lu Chen on the wrist, sweating profusely from the pain, and was begging for mercy: "Master Lu, I know I was wrong. You can enter the alchemy hall at will. I just beg you, please don't break my hand."
Lu Chen snorted, and threw the guard several feet away with a flick of his hand.
At this time, Lu Chen's breath was surging, and his momentum was like a rainbow, like a sharp sword out of its sheath.
Everyone at the scene was silent, and no one spoke.
Even the guard was not Lu Chen's opponent, so who dared to say a word of disrespect to Lu Chen?
To ridicule Lu Chen was to think that Lu Chen was a loser.
When they discovered Lu Chen's strength, no one ridiculed him.
They dared not, and they were not worthy!
This is virtue!
Inside the alchemy hall.
There were a wide variety of medicinal materials and pills.
When Lu Chen came in, all the staff of the alchemy hall were surprised.
Obviously, these people also knew something.
Lu Chen ignored these and asked a staff member to buy the awakening dragon grass.
"Sorry, we have received instructions and will not sell anything to you."
The staff member replied directly.
"Whose instructions?"
Lu Chen frowned slightly, and someone was indeed playing tricks.
"Me!"
A gloomy voice said.
A young man walked over with his hands behind his back.
The young man was wearing a black alchemy robe with a golden pill embroidered on it, representing his prominent position in the alchemy.
Embroidered copper pills are lower-level alchemists.
Embroidered silver pills are middle-level alchemists.
Embroidered golden pills are high-level alchemists!
Although alchemists are only at the entry level of alchemy, they can refine some low-level pills.
In Shuangmu City, there are not many middle and lower-level alchemists, and high-level alchemists are even rarer, and they are also very popular.
"Master Zhou Dan."
All the staff bowed and called out respectfully.
There are no mortals in the alchemy hall.
Except for some guards who are pure warriors, all others are alchemists.
The grassroots staff in the hall are all alchemists, and the management is alchemists.
"Zhou Hong?"
Lu Chen recognized this high-level alchemist, Zhou Ruoxue's cousin, who controls the management of the alchemy hall. No wonder the alchemy hall is not friendly to him.
"Lu Chen, the alchemy hall does not welcome useless people. The door is over there. Get out of here."
Zhou Hong looked arrogant and spoke coldly.
"Alchemist Zhou, this person has cultivation, and I can't stop him."
The guard came in at some point, holding his swollen wrist, and bowed his head to report to Zhou Hong.
"What realm?"
Zhou Hong was shocked, and even his face changed.
"Fifth level of the body refining realm."
The guard confessed truthfully.
"Asshole!"
Zhou Hong was furious and kicked the guard away. "You are at the sixth level of the Body Refining Realm, but you can't stop a fifth level of the Body Refining Realm. If you are not a waste, then what are you?"
In the alchemy hall, there were still many customers. Seeing the big commotion here, they all came over.
"Lu Chen, what does it matter if you have cultivation? A waste who fell from the True Yuan Realm to the fifth level of the Body Refining Realm is not worthy of my attention."
Zhou Hong snorted with disdain, and raised his own status. "I am a high-level alchemist, in charge of the external sales of the alchemy hall. Without my consent, even if you are a True Yuan Realm warrior, you can't buy even a hair."
"I buy medicinal materials as a person in the alchemy world."
Lu Chen responded coldly. He knew that Zhou Hong would be in a lot of trouble and had already prepared a countermeasure.
The alchemy hall can refuse mortals, even warriors, but it cannot refuse fellow practitioners: alchemy practitioners.
"Can you make pills?"
Zhou Hong laughed loudly, and even the people around him laughed.
In Shuangmu City, anyone with the talent for alchemy is learning the art of alchemy in the alchemy hall.
Most of them are still alchemy apprentices, and only a few with high talent have been promoted to alchemists.
Zhou Hong is the most outstanding one, the only high-level alchemist in the local area.
Lu Chen, who has never been heard of alchemy, suddenly appeared and said that he is an alchemist. Who would believe it?
"People in the alchemy way, of course they can make alchemy!"
Lu Chen gave a positive answer.
Lu Chen inherited a complete set of alchemy memories, containing countless alchemy techniques. If he can't make alchemy, who can?
"I'll give you a chance. As long as you make a body-refining pill on the spot, I will believe you."
"If I make the pill, you give me the awakening dragon grass."
"It's a deal!"
Zhou Hong waved his hand, and everyone made way.
Soon, someone brought a set of medicinal materials, a small alchemy furnace, and some charcoal.
Lu Chen looked at the charcoal and hesitated.
However, he still sat cross-legged, lit the charcoal, and raised the fire.
There are six kinds of fire in the martial arts world: firewood, true fire, soul fire, beast fire, earth fire, and heaven fire.
Firewood is the lowest level of fire, and only alchemists and middle and lower-level alchemists can use it.
The highest level is heaven fire, but that is a legend, and no one knows what heaven fire is.
It is just that there are historical records that tens of thousands of years ago, someone obtained heaven fire and eventually became a generation of alchemy emperor.
In fact, the reason why Lu Chen hesitated is because his soul power is strong, and he can completely activate the soul fire to refine the pill.
However, the body refining pill is the lowest level of the first-level pill, and firewood can be used casually. Why waste soul fire?
Lu Chen circulated his spiritual energy, activated the fire, and began the first step of alchemy: warming the furnace!
The furnace was burning, and the second step was immediately carried out: selecting materials!
Lu Chen picked up all the medicinal materials and threw them into the furnace.
Zhou Hong was stunned.
Everyone was stunned.
After a moment, the scene erupted in laughter and Zhou Hong's sneers.
"Is this called alchemy?"
"Why do I feel like you're refining shit?"
"If you can make an elixir like this, I, Zhou Hong, will eat shit right now!"
