Taishang Refined Pills, Yuanshi Sought Advice on Managing His Brother
Wu Chu and the Three Kunlun Brothers chatted about alchemy.
However, it was Taishang was particularly curious about this matter and had in-depth discussions with Wu Chu. Judging from his expression, he probably also had the idea of trying it out himself when he got back.
Wu Chu guessed that the Taishang probably felt that since the Dao of Alchemy had been revealed, it shouldn't be considered as stealing the credit for his pioneering work, so he had no reservations about asking for advice.
Taishang had no idea that in the original Primordial World mythology, the credit for pioneering the Dao of Alchemy was actually likely his own.
Clearly, this is a typical case of someone being hijacked by a time traveler.
We discussed pharmacology, restrictions, and medicinal formulas...
As they chatted, Wu Chu led the three Taishang brothers to his alchemy room.
Houtu and Qingqiu Li also stayed by Wu Chu's side, keeping him company in silence.
Behind them followed Little Yellow Dragon and his two disciples, along with the Little Fox.
The alchemy room is actually right next to this Main Hall.
When Wu Chu were building this Main Hall, they had already made plans in this regard.
At first, there were only him, Little Moon Spirit, and the Fat Dog A Qiu on Purple Jade Mountain, so there weren't many buildings, just a kitchen and a storage room.
Later, as the population of Purple Jade Mountain gradually increased, those Little Flower Fairies started planting various crops, so a warehouse was added.
After they started refining magical artifacts, they also built a weapon-refining room and an alchemy room.
Wu Chu's alchemy room didn't look very big from the outside, but the interior space was enough for him to do whatever he wanted. Rows of medicine cabinets and shelves were neatly arranged, which was quite a sight.
In the center of this alchemy room sits a gourd-shaped, cyan-gold alchemy furnace with three legs and two handles, exuding the aura of Merit Spiritual Treasure, and entwined with mysterious Merit Divine Patterns.
While it can be described as a Merit Spiritual Treasure, it is not entirely so. After all, according to the standards for Merit Spiritual Treasure, its surface only has thirty-six Divine Patterns, placing it among the top-grade merit -Merit Spiritual Treasure.
However, it is a top-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure. Originally, it was only at the initial stage of top-grade, but with the blessing of Merit, it has reached the quality of mid-to-high stage of top-grade.
Beside this alchemy furnace, there was a lamp, the Glazed Sunlight Lamp.
Wu Chu introduced these things to them and even demonstrated to the Taishang how he refined pills. After refining a batch of very simple pills, Wu Chu summoned the Golden Light Earth Dragon again and threw the pill to it. The Golden Light Earth Dragon bounced on the ground, opened its mouth, swallowed the pill in mid-air, and then looked at Wu Chu in confusion.
Wu Chu introduced the Three Kunlun Brothers to it, and then began to introduce the Golden Light Earth Dragon to everyone. "Its contribution to my success in Dao of Alchemy is considerable. No matter what medicine I refine, it is always willing to taste it first and give its feedback. It has encountered danger several times, but in the end, it always turned out well."
Although Wu Chu wasn't the toxic "Black Big Slut," he was, after all, trying his hand at concocting medicines and alchemy, so it was normal for him to occasionally concoct a few poisonous pills.
However, due to the unique nature of the Earth Dragon Golden Light's body, coupled with its Daluo cultivation level, it was able to withstand those strange poison pills, despite their toxicity.
Even the Daluo needed to use the word "tough" to describe it, which gives you an idea of how terrifying those strange poison pills were. That's why Wu Chu kept all those strange poison pills.
The Golden Light Earth Dragon humbly replied, "I dare not accept such praise from my master. It is my honor to contribute my meager strength to the great cause of alchemy! I am proud and honored to be able to dedicate my strength to this path..."
Hearing the Golden Light Earth Dragon's words, brimming with positive energy, everyone couldn't help but take notice.
Those familiar with Wu Chu were already wondering how much magic Wu Chu had used to bewitch this guy into this state.
Wu Chu coughed lightly and asked the Taishang if he wanted to try it too. He said that everything in his alchemy room, including the spiritual herbs, could be used freely.
Taishang was quite interested, and at Wu Chu's urging, he began his first attempt at alchemy.
After Taishang successfully refined a batch of the simplest Vital Qi Pill, Wu Chu left the alchemy room. The others had already left when Taishang began refining pills.
After Taishang went to refine elixirs, Houtu and Qingqiu Li bid farewell to Tongtian and the Tongtian, saying that there was something that needed to be done at the tribe.
Actually, since Wu Chu was there to receive Yuan Shi and the others, they no longer needed to show their faces.
In the pavilion Summit of the Sacred Tree, Wu Chu chatted with Yuanshi. As for Tongtian, with food, drink, and entertainment, he was already too happy to leave.
Seeing Tongtian's dissolute demeanor, Yuanshi, who had been chatting quite well with Wu Chu, couldn't help but shake his head and said with some reproach, "Fellow Daoist, you really are something else. Why did you talk to my third brother about those so-called dialectical thinking things? He's becoming more and more disobedient."
Upon hearing Yuanshi's words, Wu Chu couldn't help but chuckle. He then picked up the wine pot, poured Yuanshi a cup of Hundred Flower Spirit Brew, and glanced at the little flower fairy, Hua Fei'er, beside him.
Hua Feier glanced at the group of Little Flower Fairies with keen insight, then led the way away.
Wu Chu casually waved his hand, and an array enveloped the pavilion, preventing the music from the Main Hall from reaching them and disturbing them.
Wu Chu raised his wine cup and clinked it against Yuanshi's, saying, "Brother Dao! No offense... but do you think Heavenly Dao is an adult or a child?"
Yuan Shi looked at the wine glass, frowned, and looked at Wu Chu with a puzzled expression.
Wu Chu laughed and said, "It's obvious that Heavenly Dao is no longer a child. He has his own thoughts and his own path to pursue. Your personalities are very different. You like solemnity and seriousness, while he likes to be carefree and relaxed; you like quiet, while he likes activity; you follow the rules, while he likes to break them... Clearly, you have two opposite personalities, yet you insist on demanding that he restrain himself like you. Do you think that's possible?"
He was initially silent, but the wrinkles between his brows had become noticeably more pronounced.
Wu Chu laughed and said, "If you think it's my fault, then come, let me use this drink as an excuse to formally apologize! Although I don't quite agree with your actions."
"Since you see through us so clearly, do you have a solution?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Chu waved his hand, "Brother, you flatter me. I dare not claim to have a thorough understanding; it's merely a simple personality analysis. If there are any errors, please forgive me! After all, it's not something others can easily discern about a person's character."
Yuanshi nodded slightly and said, "Then tell me what you can see, and see if there's any way to control that fellow."
Wu Chu couldn't help but chuckle again, asking, "Why do you insist on controlling him, fellow Daoist? If you continue to manage him like this, sooner or later he will become increasingly resentful of you. This is called a rebellious mentality. In the end, it may not lead to the point where you can't even be brothers anymore, but in the long run, it will definitely develop into a situation where whatever you say, he will do the opposite."
