Chapter 240: Zi Yan!
Two hours later, under Gu He's control, the four streams of dicinal liquid gradually ford a sowhat rough, black pill embryo.
"It's done!"
Before long, seeing the round black pill taking shape in the alchemy fla, Elder Huo's eyes sparkled with excitent.
At the sa ti, a strong wave of energy spread out from Gu He's palm, rapidly extending in all directions, and a refreshing fragrance of the pill began to emanate from around the pill.
"What's this?"
"It seems like soone is refining pills!"
"A fifth-grade dicinal pill wouldn't cause such a commotion, could it be a sixth-grade pill?"
Feeling this wave of energy, countless disciples and so elders of Jia Nan Academy were astonished and rushed towards this location.
At this mont, a very deep voice ca through the void.
"Everyone listen, do not approach the source of the pill fragrance."
"This is, the voice of the Great Elder!" Hearing the voice with imnse authority in the void, everyone's steps halted.
...
"Mission accomplished!"
Handing the sixth-grade pill to Elder Huo, Gu He looked utterly relaxed, showing no signs of fatigue from the pill refinent.
"Elder Gu, your level of pill refining is truly the best I have seen in my life!" Elder Huo looked at the pill in his hand with great admiration.
"It's nothing, Elder Huo flatters !" Gu He replied with a modest smile.
At this mont, Elder Huo was no longer concerned about the extra two sets of materials given out. Having witnessed Gu He's pill refining process, he felt like he had gained a great deal.
Not only was Elder Huo's reaction intense, the Great Elder Su Qian was also deeply stirred.
Although Su Qian was not very knowledgeable about pill refining, he saw the shock in Elder Huo's eyes and was amazed by Gu He's speed in pill refining.
In less than half a day, a sixth-grade dicinal pill was successfully refined, and with a hundred percent success rate at that.
At this mont, Su Qian felt even more the importance of having a pill refining master like Gu He.
Such a talented pill refiner, if not well courted, might one day leave Jia Nan Academy.
Thinking this, Su Qian showed a warm smile and produced a white jade token, offering it to Gu He: "Elder Gu, this token grants access to any storeroom in the academy's dicinal herb library. You may take any herbs you need without restriction!"
"This might not be appropriate, I've only just joined Jia Nan Academy and receiving such treatnt might lead to gossip."
Gu He was taken aback upon receiving the jade token from Su Qian.
He did not expect that rely refining a sixth-grade dicinal pill would cause the Great Elder of Jia Nan Academy to further improve his treatnt.
"Elder Gu worries too much, since ancient tis, treasures have always been in the possession of those capable." Su Qian still extended the jade token towards Gu He.
Seeing Gu He's hesitation, the impatient Elder Huo also persuaded: "Elder Gu, please accept it. Although no one in the academy can refine a sixth-grade dicinal pill, we still have plenty of such dicinal herbs, and you can even find so listed in seventh-grade pill recipes!"
"In that case, I will no longer refuse!" Seeing their insistence, Gu He reluctantly accepted the jade token offered by Su Qian.
"That's more like it!"
Seeing Gu He accept the jade token, Su Qian and Elder Huo both sighed in relief, fearing that Gu He might refuse.
The next mont, Elder Huo turned to Su Qian and said, "Since Elder Gu is new here and not yet familiar with the academy's environnt, allow to show him around."
...
Soon after, Gu He and Elder Huo arrived at the dicinal herb storage of Jia Nan Academy.
"Elder Huo, why are you here again? Didn't you just co here to collect herbs not too long ago?"
Seeing Elder Huo's arrival, a figure in a plain robe appeared at the entrance of the dicinal herb storage.
"Haha, Elder Hao, this ti it's not who needs to collect spiritual herbs." Elder Huo explained with a light laugh, "This is Elder Gu, who has just joined the academy and has a jade token from the Great Elder to enter the storeroom!"
"I am Gu He." While greeting, Gu He showed the jade token that Su Qian had given him.
"Elder Gu?"
Clearly, Elder Hao, who was in charge of guarding the dicinal herb storage, was unaware of Gu He's existence.
However, he recognized the jade token in Gu He's hand.
"Since you have the jade token from the Great Elder, feel free to take whatever spiritual herbs you want!" Elder Hao said sowhat helplessly.
"Thank you!" Gu He said calmly, then stepped forward into the interior.
"Hey, only one person can go in with a jade token, why are you following behind!"
"I am naturally leading the way for Elder Gu!"
"I know you too well, no matter what you say today, you can't go in..."
After Gu He entered, the arguing voices of Elder Huo and Elder Hao could be heard from behind.
Hearing their conversation, Gu He chuckled and shook his head, then looked towards the end of the corridor where a faint energy barrier was, and slowly inserted the jade token into the slot.
With the insertion of the jade token, the light from the energy barrier gradually dissipated.
Inside was a spacious room enveloped in a soft glow, and as Gu He stepped in, his gaze swept around, and his face gradually showed a look of amazent. The entire room's inner walls were covered in a layer of milky white jade, even the floor was made of neatly arranged white jade tiles without any gaps, and the soft glow was emanating from these jades.
"Jia Nan Academy really pays attention to detail." Gu He couldn't help but praise aloud. These white jades were quite expensive, but they were very effective in preserving dicinal herbs. In such a sealed space, the precious herbs almost wouldn't lose any of their dicinal properties, and their storage ti could be significantly extended. Such arrangents were far superior to the usual storage in spatial rings.
In the spacious room wrapped in white jade, there were several corridors with tall cabinets made entirely of white jade on both sides. Gu He casually walked down a corridor, glanced at the contents of the cabinets, and instantly, all sorts of rare and exotic herbs that were very rare outside quietly stood there, with different scents of herbs drifting out faintly.
However, precious as these herbs were, not many could truly catch Gu He's eye. After casually taking a few auxiliary materials needed for refining ordinary sixth-grade dicinal pills, Gu He continued forward.
Suddenly, Gu He sensed that there were other people present in the dicinal herb library.
