Among all the ancient clans, the one that ranks first when it comes to refining elixirs is the Yan Ling family, the Yan clan. Perhaps compared with other ancient clans in other aspects, the Yan clan may be inferior, but in terms of refining elixirs and medicines, they are definitely unparalleled. Moreover, the Yan clan controls nearly 90% of the business in the elixir market in the hidden world, and directly monopolizes all high-end elixir markets. Although each ancient clan also has its own branch of alchemy, they can only compete with the Yan clan in terms of low-end elixirs. The market for high-level elixirs is not good at all. The reason is that they cannot be refined. In particular, only the Yan clan can refine elixirs above the middle level of the Tribulation Realm. You must know that the Yan clan has four sixth-grade alchemists, but other ancient clans have none. Then the ancestors of other tribes in the Tribulation Realm must make friends with them for the elixir, which means that other tribes must make friends with them.
Therefore, other clans will show their kindness to the Flame clan and establish good relations with them. This is no exception for the Gu clan, the strongest ancient clan in the world. After all, who doesn’t know the importance of elixirs in the process of cultivating immortality? In addition to normal trade, marriage is almost the first choice to establish a good relationship. Therefore, those women from the Yan clan who are talented in alchemy skills are high-quality candidates. Of course, there are also cases where men marry into other clans. However, the Yan clan does not value bloodline as much as the Gu clan. After all, refining elixirs and medicines relies on acquired understanding and continuous practice, and hard work and perseverance are the first elements. Although talent is also very useful, it is not the decisive factor. Bloodline doesn't matter. What the Yan clan values is the advancement and inheritance of alchemy and medicine refining technology. So much so that the Yan clan also has talented people with foreign surnames living there.
Gu Xun'er's mother Gu Xi, whose original name was Yan Xi, was the apple of the eye of the contemporary patriarch of the Yan clan. Gu Tianying and Gu Xi came together under the promotion of the Gu family. Anyone with a discerning eye will understand at a glance what the Gu family's plan is, and it is nothing more than introducing the technology of alchemy and medicine refining. After all, the Gu clan's human gene completion project is quite famous, and introduction is their favorite thing to do. What's more, using marriage to introduce alchemy technology is a "secret" that almost everyone knows.
Gu Xi was also very talented in alchemy refining. When she got married, she was already a fifth-grade alchemist. Although she had just been promoted, this incident caused a sensation in the entire ancient clan world at that time. The Gu clan used the highest standards for marriage. He went to the Yan clan to marry her. Now among the Gu clan, Gu Xi's status is actually higher than that of Gu Tianying, at least in the eyes of the Presbyterian Council. After all, anyone can be the leader of your clan, but in the entire Gu clan, Gu Xi is only a 5th grader. Alchemist. No matter how you think about it, your status cannot be low. Fortunately, although the two were in a political marriage, they truly loved each other. After the marriage, they always felt that they respected each other as guests and loved each other like glue. Otherwise, with Gu Tianying's current status and identity, he would have three wives and four concubines on the surface, but secretly he would not have too many mistresses and illegitimate children. But in fact, Gu Tianying only had Gu Xi as a Taoist spouse, and Gu Xun'er as a daughter. Gu Xun'er is not only the apple of Gu Tianying and Gu Xi's eye, but also the true apple of the entire Gu clan.
In the second year after their marriage, Gu Xi proposed to open an alchemy line, which was unanimously approved by the Presbyterian Council. To this end, among the five spiritual lines of the Gu family, except for the central Huanglong spiritual line, the spiritual line with the highest quality was selected. The Eastern Qinglong Spirit Vein was given to Gu Xi for use in elixir making. In addition, the alchemy lineage will give them what they ask for, including territory, resources, spiritual stones, medicinal materials, talented disciples, etc. They will spare no effort to give them the best. The alchemy of the Gu clan ushered in a golden age of rapid development. Of course, because of the historical background, accumulation, precipitation, etc. of alchemy, it may not be as good as the Yan clan. But it is far superior to other ancient tribes. Because of this, the Gu clan is now inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people in terms of alchemy. It may not be as good as the Yan clan, but it is far more than several times stronger than other ancient clans. Gu Xi's contribution was indispensable, but Gu Xun'er did not inherit her mother's extraordinary talent for alchemy. But Gu Xun'er is the one who has perfected the awakening of the Emperor's bloodline among the Gu clan since ancient times. Considering that Emperor Fire is also a kind of strange fire. And the Yan clan is famous for its unusual fire for alchemy, so Gu Xi's talent for alchemy was eventually passed on to Gu Xun'er in another form. Is it a pity? It’s probably that Gu Xun’er doesn’t have a younger brother.
In fact, refining elixirs is an extremely time-consuming and resource-consuming task. Although Ye Feng does it so easily and freely, he goes to a medicine spirit space to vent his anger and knocks down the main ingredients, and lets others do the rest. But only Ye Feng can use that method, and that method is useless to others. Normal alchemy requires a lot of time and resources. As said before. Alchemy is all about "the right time, right place and right people." Top-notch spiritual energy supply, top-level alchemy environment and equipment, plus top-level alchemy operation technology can refine top-level high-level elixirs.
Leaving aside the Gu clan, even if other ancient clans can marry and introduce alchemy technology, due to resource investment problems and the shallow knowledge of alchemy, they can only occupy the market of low-end medicinal materials. Among the women who married outside the Yan clan, except for Gu Xi, the highest level was only a third-grade alchemist. That's why Gu Xi, a fifth-grade alchemy master, married outside the country to be such a sensation. Although the Gu clan has invested heavily in alchemy, you must know that the Yan clan has invested all the resources of the clan in the alchemy business, so other clans cannot compare. For example, regardless of the level of the nine-elixir-patterned elixirs, except for the Gu clan who occasionally succeeded in refining a few, almost all of them were monopolized by the Yan clan.

At the Wenlou. The ancestor sat down in the main seat, where Gu Tianying, his wife and other elders were standing. After all, the status is there. The great elder was standing beside Gu Yiyao as he was being questioned.
The ancestor just said calmly: "Yiyao, are you really not going to tell the news about that person?"
Gu Yiyao shook his head and said: "Ancestor, I'm sorry, Yiyao promised that person not to tell any news about that person. But"
As he spoke, Gu Yiyao knelt down to his ancestor and said, "Yiyao can guarantee with his life that that person has absolutely no ill intentions towards the Gu clan, and is very likely to be the one to save the Gu clan from danger in the future. Because he There’s a reason why you have to do that.”
Although the fourth elder Gu Yue wanted to say something at this time, it was the ancestor who was asking the question at the moment, and it was not his turn to interrupt at all.
After closing his eyes for a moment, the ancestor finally said slowly: "Yiyao, I only want to ask one last question, is he trustworthy? I just want to hear your answer."
