Nine-Star Dou Grandmaster

Nine-Star Dou Grandmaster

After inviting him inside, Fa Wutian poured him a cup of tea before asking about his purpose.

"Elder Huo, what brings you here?"

At that moment, Elder Huo was sizing up Fa Wutian before him.

Truly worthy of being a genius who had become a Dou Master and a Second-Rank Alchemist at the age of twelve.

Not only was he impeccable in his conduct, but his appearance was also exceptionally outstanding!

"I came here to ask whether you have a master already. Would you be willing to take this old man as your master?"

Hearing Elder Huo's words, Fa Wutian was instantly dumbfounded.

Was this old man still half-asleep? Never mind that I've already inherited the legacy of an Emperor-Rank Alchemist—my grandfather Fama is also a Fifth-Rank Alchemist!

Although Fama's knowledge might have been inferior to his, there was no need for him to take someone of little use to him as his master just for that bit of knowledge.

Or did Elder Huo not know about his family background?

The truth was exactly as Fa Wutian had guessed. After learning of Fa Wutian, this peerless genius, Elder Huo had not bothered to investigate his family background. That was what had led to this awkward situation.

"Thank you for your kind offer, but—"

Seeing that Fa Wutian was about to refuse, Elder Huo, unaware of the truth, hurriedly said, "Don't be so quick to refuse! You definitely won't lose out by becoming my disciple! Although I only possess the strength of a Dou King, I am also a Fifth-Rank Alchemist! Surely you know how difficult the path of alchemy is without an inheritance or guidance from one's elders! Though my rank is not high, teaching a Second-Rank Alchemist like you would be more than easy enough!"

"Besides, this old man has neither sons nor daughters. Once I pass away, won't all my lifelong collection be yours?"

Fa Wutian was slightly stunned by this.

He had not expected Elder Huo to lay out the benefits so directly.

But on second thought, it made perfect sense.

With talent like his, anyone would be tempted.

Elder Huo was simply afraid of missing out on him, which was why he had acted this way.

Still, he was destined to disappoint him.

"I'm sorry, Elder Huo, but I have no plans to take a master at the moment."

Hearing this, Elder Huo seemed to deflate completely.

He became listless, as though he had aged several decades.

"This old man was too presumptuous! But what I said just now will always stand! If you ever wish to take a master in the future, come find me!"

With that, he stood up and turned to leave.

Watching him go, Fa Wutian could not help sighing. "If I hadn't been born into the Fa Family and didn't have the system's help, perhaps I really would have taken him as my master?"

But how could such things be decided by him?

Canaan Academy, the dean's office.

Seeing Elder Huo walk in looking utterly dejected, Hu Gan seemed to have expected it all along.

"What? That kid wasn't willing to take you as his master?"

Hearing Hu Gan's question, Elder Huo's expression shifted uncertainly. In the end, he sat down in a chair dejectedly and sighed. "That kid said he has no plans to take a master right now! But how could this old man not know that it was merely an excuse?"

"Hehe, just as expected!"

"What do you mean?"

Seeing that Hu Gan seemed to have anticipated his failure, Elder Huo hurriedly asked.

"Here, take a look."

Hu Gan then picked up the information on Fa Wutian's family background and handed it to him.

Elder Huo looked it over in confusion.

After reading it, he finally understood why Fa Wutian had refused him.

It turned out that his family already had a Fifth-Rank Alchemist grandfather!

No wonder he had looked down on Elder Huo's inheritance!

Recalling how he had made all sorts of promises in front of Fa Wutian just now, Elder Huo's face flushed with embarrassment.

It seemed that little fellow had still spared this old man some dignity.

Otherwise, anyone else would certainly have humiliated him.

"Old Huo, what do you think? Now you know why he refused you, right?"

Elder Huo nodded at those words.

"Alright, don't dwell on it! Someone like him is not someone you or I can teach. To him, perhaps even Canaan Academy is merely a small interlude on his path to becoming stronger!"

After that, the two put the matter of Fa Wutian aside and began handling the academy's new student admissions.

One year later.

Having been tempered by the Black-Corner Region, Fa Wutian had become a qualified Dou Grandmaster expert!

That was right. After a year of cultivation, he had broken through to become a Six-Star Dou Grandmaster!

Not only had his cultivation reached the Six-Star Dou Grandmaster level, but his alchemy had also successfully advanced to the fourth rank!

As for his soul strength, after cultivating the Soul Tempering Technique from Yao Wushuang's inheritance, he had successfully reached the Mortal Realm Peak!

If his body were not currently unable to withstand such soul strength, he would have long since broken through to the Spirit Realm!

The sign-in reward for breaking through to Dou Grandmaster was also extraordinary: the Reincarnation Cauldron, ranked first among the Heavenly Cauldrons!

Fa Wutian was immensely fond of it.

After all, to an alchemist, a good cauldron was no less valuable than mastering a Heavenly Flame!

Looking at the jade bottle in his hand, Fa Wutian gritted his teeth and poured out the pill inside.

The moment the pill emerged, its medicinal fragrance immediately filled the entire room.

This pill was the renowned Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill!

It had been refined jointly by Fa Wutian and Elder Huo!

To refine it, Fa Wutian had paid a tremendous price.

In the end, by combining his Azure Flame, the Earthfire of the Alchemy Department, and Elder Huo's Redwood Flame, they had refined a perfect Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill!

Although the process had been extremely arduous, it had all been worth it.

After all, the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill came in three grades. Each grade formed one pill pattern around the pill's surface, and a pill with three patterns was the highest-grade Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill. When consumed by a Dou Grandmaster, it had a chance to raise their strength by three stars in a short time. At the same time, there was also a certain chance of medicinal backlash. Those affected might lose one to two stars of strength, but their lives would not be in danger.

He was already a Six-Star Dou Grandmaster. If he successfully refined the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill, he would soar to the heavens in a single step and directly reach the Nine-Star Dou Grandmaster realm!

Thinking of this, Fa Wutian decisively swallowed the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill in his hand.

As the pill entered his stomach, Fa Wutian did not dare be careless. He immediately circulated the Flame Mantra and began refining its medicinal power.

Very quickly, the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill began to dissolve within his dantian. As its medicinal power flowed through him, the amount of Dou Qi within Fa Wutian's body rapidly soared.

But Fa Wutian did not dare stop there. He continued circulating the Flame Mantra, frantically absorbing the medicinal power.

One hour, two hours, three hours.

Fa Wutian remained in the room for an entire day before completely refining all the medicinal power!

Rumble~

As all the medicinal power was absorbed, the barrier of Fa Wutian's realm shattered with a bang at that very moment!

"So this is the Nine-Star Dou Grandmaster realm?"
