[I would rather believe that I am blind...]
Ghost couldn't believe what he saw.
[What on earth did you do? At most, I have only heard of secret methods of repairing elixirs. To think that this kind of sudden upgrade of a complete elixir to a higher level is something I have never seen before! 】
It was extremely excited, as if it had discovered an extremely rare scene.
[What kind of power did you use? Is it related to the golden energy you gave me? What is the principle of this and how do you have such ability? 】
Qi Mingchen was helpless. He didn't expect Ming Gui to be so excited. Even so, he couldn't delay the experiment just to make it accept it.
"Keep it secret."
He only replied this sentence, leaving the ghost scratching his head, but the soul couldn't do these actions.
Regarding the upgrade of the finished elixir, he still had many doubts that he had not yet verified.
For example, as long as you reach a certain level of strength, you can level up the corresponding finished elixir? So to what level will high-level elixirs be upgraded?
There are also top-notch elixirs. If spiritual power is input, can they reach the highest level?
These doubts need to be verified, but there is no way to continue now.
There was still one day before departure, and he had to make some preparations before departure.
Thinking of this, he put away the elixir, put the Black Iron Sword into the space ring, quietly left the mansion and walked to the back mountain.
After having the ring, it was much easier to change his identity. He directly put on the black robe and mask, circulated his spiritual power along the path, and quickly came to the Star Chamber of Commerce.
"Your Excellency, congratulations on winning the first place in the Heart-Questioning Trial. Given your level, it is obviously a piece of cake." The third steward greeted him warmly, complimented him modestly, and took him to a quiet and comfortable room.
Qi Mingchen didn't understand the other party's words and asked calmly: "I want to buy pills."
"What elixir do you want to buy?"
He first handed the newly upgraded red-grade mid-level elixir to the other party, "I'll ask the third steward to estimate the price. Then I need some red-grade early-level elixirs."
The third steward was careful to find out the elixir. He was already used to it when Qi Mingchen took out a very good elixir, so he asked as usual, "It's a useless elixir, right?"
"This time I'll change it to some waste elixirs and some mature elixirs."
He did not directly say that they would all be replaced with elixirs. After all, it would be dangerous enough to expose the ability to repair elixirs. If he could tell about the upgrading of finished elixirs, it is estimated that the entire continent would be in uproar. Not to mention whether his freedom could be preserved. Even life is at stake.
If they buy them together, the third manager will not have too much doubts. Normal repair of elixirs is not a simple matter. It is naturally understood that the daily needs for elixirs cannot all rely on repair.
"Okay." As expected, the third manager had no doubts and started trading normally.
He spent the remaining balance on a lot of elixirs, the most valuable of which were three high-end finished elixirs.
With his current strength, he cannot directly upgrade high-level elixirs from red to high-level.
A conservative estimate would be that he would need to reach the late stage of elixir formation to cooperate with Chuguang. When he needs to use a certain grade of elixir, it seems that the value of repairing the waste elixir is higher.
But after leaving here, waste pills are not easy to buy. If you want to buy them, you must expose a certain level of ability, which is very risky.
With such an ability, you only need to buy the elixir without any suspicion. Even if you sell it, an elixir of a different grade will not be associated with the ability to repair the elixir.
"The deal is done, now you need to update your identity card."
Under the guidance of the third steward, Qi Mingchen input the first light into the identity card. The dazzling light made the other party's eyes widen.
"Innate...Third level?" The third manager remembered that at the beginning, Hong Chen's strength was only at the acquired second level. How long ago, he was already approaching the middle innate stage!
Qi Mingchen had a rough idea of the concentration of the first light, so he naturally retracted his hand and said: "I have something to deal with recently, so I won't come for the time being."
After all, as a guest here, I still need to inform you if I have been out of touch for a while.
"...Okay." The third steward's eyebrows twitched and he responded with difficulty, then asked: "Your Excellency, you will come back...right."
The Chamber of Commerce's restrictions on guest officials are really very small. Compared with Hong Chen's strength and ability, a third-class guest official can't stand it, but... as long as there is a glimmer of hope, you can't give up!
"meeting."
His words made the third steward breathe a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, that's good..."
After muttering twice, the other party realized what had happened and added: "If you don't come back, it will be a huge loss to the Chamber of Commerce!"
After speaking, he forced a few laughs to echo his words.
After getting everything ready, he returned to the mansion and packed his bags.
As an outer disciple of the Canglong Sect, it is naturally impossible to have a space ring, so he can only pack many things in a backpack, which is convenient for a month's personal belongings in the sword pavilion, and the black iron sword cannot be left behind.
He has always been very interested in the Sword Pavilion. If he can learn swordsmanship during this trip, it will definitely be a worthwhile trip!
After doing everything, he sat at the outer door, looked at the sky, drank wine and ate meat. He did not practice, study or repair the elixirs. He just let his heart go without thinking about anything and watched quietly.
What have you experienced during this time?
…
From the initial break with the second elder, to the betrayal of senior sister Li Mian, and then the assassination of Liu Zi.
At that time, in a life-and-death crisis, he awakened a magical skill as a blessing in disguise, and killed Liu Zi with a method he was not aware of.
Although he still didn't know how Liu Zi died, but based on the characteristics of his spiritual power and the condition of Liu Zi's death, there was a high probability that he really killed him.
Let's put it this way... Li Mian's report did not unjustly accuse him, but the charges were really outrageous. From his counterattack, he turned into cruel means of killing his fellow disciples.
The branch master of the Punishment Pavilion obviously didn't believe it at first. In everyone's eyes, he was still a waste. However, facing the inner disciples who had already become disciples, he abruptly turned innocence into severe punishment, leaving him no chance of survival.
Being weak, he had nothing to do. In that situation, no one would go out of their way to save a loser.
…
"..."
…
"Okay, I know you know my past, I don't need you to repeat it to me."
Qi Mingchen shook his head helplessly and looked at an unknown object floating not far away. When he was sighing and wanting to recall the past, Ming Gui began to retell it from his perspective, speaking with gusto.
"Does it seem like you already have the memories of many people?"
[Almost, but I won’t tell everyone’s memories to others, so I will also be punished. 】
"Punishment? Who can punish you in your state?"
【The Way of Heaven. 】
Faced with these two words, anyone will immediately become serious. After all, everyone knows that if it is an oath of heaven, once it is violated, you will really be punished.
[But your own experience will be fine with you. It’s just that there are some places in your memory that I can’t touch. For example, I can’t even know the name of your technique, and that golden energy. If it weren’t for The information the clone gave me about this energy has completely disappeared. 】
Qi Mingchen suddenly realized, "So you were silent for so long after you finished speaking. I didn't expect that you didn't know what happened next..."
[...You are really a strange person. Your past experiences were so ordinary, and your experiences two months ago were so puzzling. 】
"You are not human and have no brains." After he calmly replied to the other party, something suddenly flashed in his mind. He raised his head suddenly and asked: "In the past, could you see everyone when they were young? The farthest you could see was one person. How old were you?"
[Maybe I have been able to see it since I was born. Even if the memory is vague, it does not mean that it does not exist, so I can naturally see it. 】
Hearing this, Qi Mingchen became even more excited. He stood up and clenched his fists to endure his emotions. "You can see it when I was born, so do you know my past identity? My memories before I was five years old!"
[Unfortunately, your earliest memories are already in the Canglong Sect. Thinking about it this way, your background may be quite extraordinary, and even I can’t see it...]
The ghost ghost stopped talking in the middle of the story.
"What?"
[With your current strength, it is not recommended that you know things at that level. If you really want to know the truth, it is safer to find it yourself, such as looking for clues from your adoptive father. 】
"He is no longer my adoptive father." Qi Mingchen said quietly.
[Okay, that Hong Tao should have the memory of where he found you, but he has not entered the secret realm of interrogating the heart, so I have no way of knowing the contents of his memory. 】
Qi Mingchen thought of the sign that the second elder had given him before. He took out the sign of Yunwu Altar from the bag on his waist and slowly held it tightly.
When he returns from Jiange, he plans to ask in person.
This time, no matter if the second elder avoided his question, he would not let it go easily.
…
Soon, the next day came.
Disciples with quotas gathered at the entrance of Canglong Sect Mountain.
Among them, there are five inner disciples.
One was the second disciple of the Great Elder, Luo Mu, whom he had met before, saved once and slapped.
The second inner disciple is the fifth disciple of the leader, a woman who doesn't seem to be easy to mess with, Mo Xixi.
The third person is the second disciple of the second elder, and the person with the best talent and the most potential to become his direct disciple, Nan Ruijia.
The fourth one...is the third disciple of the third elder, Li Ming.
He once bullied him, and later with the help of Liu Minghua, this person did not dare to mess with him again. A few years later, when he became famous, he did not come out to apologize. When he fell from the altar, he did not add insult to injury. He has not seen him much in the past few years. Pass this person.
The fifth one is the direct disciple of the fifth elder who was replaced. The original quota was for a disciple of the great elder.
Qi Mingchen thought of the struggle he overheard at the Yunwu Altar.
It is indeed rare for direct disciples to compete for quotas, so it seems that we should be more vigilant.
There are only two disciples in the outer sect. One is the fifth-level alchemy-forming senior brother Huo Mian, who originally had only one disciple in the outer sect. He looks very strong.
The only one left is himself.
