The other side.
Zhu Shao’s home.
Ever since Zhu Shao sent the gunman out, he had been waiting for good news.
“It’s been a day, why hasn’t the gunman come back yet.”
Zhu Shao looked a bit anxious, according to the plan, the gunman should have killed Lin Yun last night and then come over to resume his duties, but there was no sign of him until now.
The butler standing next to him said, “Young master, it’s a bit abnormal, I just tried to contact the gunman, but I couldn’t get in touch with him at all, and that Lin Yun is still alive and kicking.”
Immediately after that, the butler changed his mind, “Young master, do you think it’s possible that the gunman we sent was killed by that kid?”
“How is it possible that the gunman we sent is a retired special forces BG, not only is he a good shot, he’s also quite good, taking out that Lin Yun is not an easy task.”Zhu Shao said.
Zhu Shao didn’t want to believe this reason, in his eyes, how could Lin Yun deal with the gunman
“Whatever, send two more gunmen to make sure to kill this kid remember, pick the more powerful ones” Zhu Shao ordered.
“This, alright, old slave will go and do it.”The butler could only nod his head in response.
Before leaving, the butler instructed “Young Master, you can be sure not to be late for the reception organised by the White Cloud Pavilion tomorrow, or else the Master will be unhappy.”
“Don’t worry, I still have this measure.”Zhu Shao waved his hand.
On the other hand, Lin Yun’s home.
After Lin Yun returned from the company, he continued to refine pills.
Fail fail fail fail.
As time passed, Lin Yun failed again and again and again
The failures were all in the final part of condensing the dan, which was the last and most difficult part.
In the blink of an eye, time had come to the night of the second day.
Tomorrow morning would be the day that the White Cloud Pavilion would hold its reception.
During these two days and nights, Lin Yun had spent all of his time refining pills, except for a five hour break in the middle of the day.
Lin Yun had already lost track of how many times he had failed, anyway, he was just failing in a cycle.
And the effect of so many failures was that Lin Yun was becoming more and more skilful at refining, and the time taken was getting shorter and shorter.
During this time, Lin Yun had also specially run to the wholesale herb market and bought a large batch of herbs back because he didn’t have enough herbs to refine them, and he had already spent hundreds of thousands of dollars just on selling the herbs, after all, there were a few herbs in there that were still quite expensive.
At this time, Lin Yun, his forehead was covered in beads of sweat, his body was covered in sweat, his eyes looking expectantly and nervously into the medicinal cauldron.
At this moment, it once again came to the final pills congealing session.
The elixir within the medicinal cauldron, under the control of Lin Yun’s internal force, slowly condensed.
A fragrance of the elixir was already wafting out from the medicinal cauldron.
“It’s almost done… it’s almost done.”
Lin Yun looked at the elixir that was about to be condensed in the to be fixed, his gaze was fiery as the elixir was about to be condensed to completion.
“Boom.”
Just as Lin Yun was getting excited, his internal force didn’t control the fire properly, and the elixir then broke open.
This time, the alchemy was once again declared a failure.
“Grass.”
Lin Yun couldn’t help but burst out a foul mouth, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment, Lin Yun had thought that this time would definitely succeed.
However, this was also the closest Lin Yun had come to success, the closest he had ever been.
“Wanting me, Lin Yun, to give up is impossible, again.”
Lin Yun didn’t intend to give up at all, and after slightly adjusting his state, he continued to start refining.
More than half an hour later, Lin Yun once again came to the dan condensation session.
The pill in the pill cauldron once again began to slowly condense.
Lin Yun’s heart, once again, tensed up.
“It has to be a success it has to be a success,” Lin Yun kept meditating.
In the past few days, Lin Yun had spent his mind entirely on alchemy, after spending so much effort, Lin Yun certainly expected success.
This time, Lin Yun absorbed the lessons from the last time and didn’t dare to be the slightest bit careless, the more critical the moment, the more he had to utilise his inner strength to control the refining fire to the most precise level.
Looking at the elixir that was continuously condensing inside the pill cauldron, Lin Yun’s heart was tense, beads of sweat continuously rolling down on his forehead, success or failure was at stake!
“Boom.”
Right at this moment, a dan light shot up into the sky!
The Wuji Pill within the pill cauldron had already been condensed.
Primary Pill Wuji Pill, successfully refined!
“Haha, it’s done! It’s done!”
Lin Yun saw that the condensation of the pill was complete and was so excited that he was on the verge of jumping up.
Don’t look at the fact that Lin Yun had only refined a beginner’s elixir, this marked that Lin Yun had successfully become an alchemist, and should be the only alchemist on Earth!
This definitely had a milestone significance
“Right, why did I forget to shield the dan light,” Lin Yun slapped his head and suddenly remembered this.
Whenever an elixir was successfully concocted, a stream of dan light would rise up to the sky, causing a certain amount of commotion, and one could use their internal energy to shield the dan light from some unnecessary trouble.
Because Lin Yun had been failing to condense pills before, he had forgotten about this when he had just succeeded.
Five hundred kilometres to the south of the Imperial Capital, there was a towering White Cloud Mountain.
White Cloud Mountain was more than three thousand metres above sea level and stretched for hundreds of miles, it was very mysterious, and it was thought that there were many legends about White Cloud Mountain, and it was said that there were immortals and ghosts living in White Cloud Mountain.
Even now, Baiyun Mountain is rarely visited, basically no one dares to enter Baiyun Mountain.
Some mountaineers go to challenge Baiyun Mountain, but also basically have no return, more so that Baiyun Mountain shrouded in mystery.
White Cloud Mountain is home to a large number of Chinese-style buildings.
Only cultivators within the cultivation world knew that this was the mountain gate of the White Cloud Sect, an ancient sect in China.
At the highest point on top of White Cloud Mountain, there was also a seven-story ancient tower.
If one is a cultivator who understands cultivation, one will find that this ancient tower is an ancient formation that can bring together the essence of the sun and the moon in a hundred-mile radius.
Cultivating and cultivating in this ancient tower would definitely yield twice the result with half the effort.
The top floor of the ancient tower.
An old man with a white beard and hair, wearing a white practice suit, was practising.
Moreover, the aura emanating from the old man’s practice was terrifyingly abnormal.
The old man’s body was withered and thin, looking a bit like a dry corpse, and the whole person gave people the feeling that he was old, and seemed to have no more years to live.
“Well, there are strange movements.”
The old man suddenly moved his eyebrows, then stood up and quickly ran to the rooftop, holding the railing and looking out.
All he could see was a ray of light rising up into the sky in the direction of the Imperial Capital, appearing very bright in the darkness of the night.
“That’s that’s the legendary Dan light” The old man looked at the light from the imperial capital’s defence line, and a strong look of shock passed through his eyes.
The old slave who stood next to him serving, secretly said in his heart that he hadn’t seen the old man reveal such a shocked look for more than thirty years.
At this moment, the dan light that to had risen to the sky from the Eastern District had already disappeared.
“Dan light Taishang Sect Leader, you won’t see it wrong, only when the alchemy is successful, will produce Dan light, contemporary world, alchemy has long been lost, how can there be Dan light appeared, could it be some other light” said the old slave.
“Although I have not seen it with my own eyes, but the Dan light in the records, is just that appearance, absolutely not wrong” the old man’s tone was firm.
“If someone really succeeded in alchemy, then it means that in this world, alchemists have reappeared, if that’s the case, once this news is spread, it can definitely shock the entire cultivation world” the old slave said in shock.
“That’s right,” the old man nodded with a grave gaze.
They were all very clear about what the appearance of an alchemist meant, it would even affect the pattern of the entire Chinese cultivation world!
Immediately after, the old man immediately commanded “Immediately contact the White Cloud Pavilion and have the White Cloud Pavilion co-operate in investigating this matter”
“Yes, I’ll get on with it.”The old servant nodded and replied.
As for the old man, he was still gazing deep into the direction of the Imperial Capital.
A large mountain two hundred kilometres north of the Imperial Capital, a huge complex was also situated at the top of the mountain.
A middle-aged man with a majestic face stood at the top of the mountain, looking in the direction of the imperial capital.
“Dan light that’s Dan light there’s even another alchemist appearing in the world,” the middle-aged man’s eyes were round, and his eyes were filled with horror.
Immediately after, the middle-aged man immediately turned around and shouted in an urgent tone
“Quickly, immediately send someone to the Imperial Capital, so that the Gongsun Family in the Imperial Capital, co-operate with the investigation of this matter.”
The old slave standing next to him hadn’t seen his family head so agitated in a long time.
“Yes family head, I’ll go right now,” the old slave said eagerly.
Imperial Capital.
Lin Yun’s home.
In Lin Yun’s hands at this moment, he was holding the just-refined elixir Wuji Pill and studying it.
Lin Yun was still completely unaware at this moment of how much of a shock the dan light that had just been created had caused.
