"And this time, it disappeared for 50,000 years!" The three women were shocked when they heard this. 50,000 years, that's such a long time! They seemed to feel the history and vicissitudes contained in this mirror.
"However, these fifty thousand years are calculated according to the timekeeping of the True Spirit Continent. Perhaps in a sense, this mirror has always existed, but it has been traveling between the worlds, and few people can encounter it." Zi Huang's words seemed to unveil the mystery of the mirror, allowing everyone to have a deeper understanding of it.
Lu Xuan nodded in agreement, because she herself had come across this mirror by accident in another world. She recalled her previous guess and asked, "Is this mirror considered a divine weapon?" Her eyes flashed with anticipation, as if she hoped to get a positive answer.
Zi Huang shook her head: "It's hard to say. From ancient times to the present, only one person has successfully recognized it as his master. Others have triggered its power by chance." Her voice was calm and objective, as if telling a fact.
"You said before that I could claim it as my master?" Lu Xuanxin looked at Zi Huang in confusion, with a puzzled look in her eyes. She longed to get this mirror, but was afraid that she would not be able to control it.
Zi Huang blinked her purple eyes, and the meaning was clear. There was a mysterious light in her eyes, as if she could see through everything. Lu Xuanxin was silent for a moment, thinking secretly in her heart. Zi Huang had mentioned the past life relationship vaguely before. Could it be that the owner of this reincarnation mirror was her in the past life? She wanted to get this mirror, but she thought that it was found by Tian Ying, and even if she wanted it, she couldn't take away someone else's love.
"Sister Shuang, this mirror..." She hesitated and finally gave up. Her eyes flashed with helplessness and regret, as if she had made a difficult decision.
Tian Ying smiled and waved her hand, saying, "Sister's things are Xuanxin's things. Xuanxin can take them if she likes them. Besides, I may not be able to use them even if I get them." Her smile was warm and bright, as if it could dispel all the haze. This generosity and sisterly love touched Lu Xuanxin even more. Her eyes flashed with gratitude, as if she wanted to remember this friendship forever.
Although the man's words sounded elegant and bookish, and his words revealed an extraordinary charm, in fact, his twinkling eyes hid a deep desire for something. He just wanted to get that rare treasure. His greed and ambition were like an undercurrent, ready to move under his gentle appearance. However, Lu Xuanxin, a girl who had lived in the love of everyone since she was a child, had long been accustomed to a world centered on her. She would naturally not compete for other people's little thoughts. Her heart was as pure as the snow water in early spring, without any dust.
"Sister Shuang, you are so kind!" Lu Xuanxin quickly stepped forward and gave Sister Shuang a big hug. Her heart was filled with gratitude. This friendship, like the warm sunshine, illuminated her heart and made her swear to repay this gentle sister in the future.
"You silly child!" Sister Tianying touched Lu Xuanxin's back lovingly, her eyes gleaming with a gentle light, a warmth that could melt ice and snow, "If you can travel through the void in the future to explore places full of mystery and miracles, don't forget to take me with you. Let's unveil the unknown together and experience those thrilling adventures together."
"Okay! I will definitely not forget it!" Lu Xuanxin smiled and nodded in agreement. Her heart was warm, as if she was completely wrapped in the spring sunshine. That feeling of happiness made her feel that the whole world had become soft and beautiful.
At this time, Lu Murongzi on the side was not willing to be outdone. She jokingly threatened: "Little girl, Sister Yao is here with me too. If you dare to forget about us, be careful that your butt will be broken!" As she said that, she waved her fist fiercely, but her face was full of smiles.
After hearing this, Lu Xuanxin's cheeks flushed slightly. She rolled her eyes at Lu Murongzi and said in pretended anger, "Sister Yao, please pay attention to your image when you talk. Why are you acting like a child?" She couldn't hide the smile on her lips while speaking. The three girls played and fought like this, and Lu Xuanxin's depression was dissipated a lot in the laughter.
However, things are unpredictable, and good times never last long. Starting tomorrow, they will embark on a journey full of unknowns and challenges. After leaving the Princess's Mansion, the five of them strolled through the bustling streets to prepare for the upcoming journey. In the street market, there are all kinds of stalls, elixirs, healing medicines, weapons, these are all precious supplies from the royal family and the Princess's Mansion, and each one exudes an extraordinary atmosphere.
Especially for clothing, daily necessities and food, Lu Xuanxin and Sister Shuang were very careful in their selection, fearing that they would miss anything that might be useful. They shuttled between the stalls, sometimes picking up a piece of clothing to examine it carefully, and sometimes lowering their heads to discuss which food was more suitable for long-distance travel. They were so serious and meticulous, as if they were preparing for a grand banquet.
"Shuang'er, Xuanxin, why did you buy so many daily necessities? Don't we have them all in the house?" Lu Murongzi asked curiously, her eyes full of confusion. After all, in their world, these trivial things usually don't require them to worry about themselves.
"We still have to go to Jingjiang College." Lu Xuanxin did not hide anything. She knew that she would have to let Lu Murongzi know about this sooner or later. There was a bit of expectation in her tone, which was a yearning for an unknown life and curiosity about the new environment.
"Really? That's great! I can also go to Jingjiang College and study with my brother!" Lu Murongzi became excited when she heard it. There was a gleam in her eyes, as if she had already seen the beautiful picture of herself and her brother studying together in Jingjiang College.
"Stop messing around! Shuiyue Palace is a first-rate sect, and Jingjiang College hasn't been rated yet. Who would give up the good one and choose the worse one?" Sister Tianying scolded with a smile. There was a hint of doting in her tone. Obviously, she also enjoyed this relaxing time between sisters.
"Having said that, you're all there, and it would be so boring for me to stay in the sect alone." Lu Murongzi said with a pout. There was a hint of loneliness in her eyes. Obviously, she didn't want to be separated from her sisters.
"You've been in the sect for three years, haven't you made some good sisters? If the master hears you say that, he will be angry." Lu Xuanxin also scolded her with a smile. There was a hint of sarcasm in her tone, and she obviously wanted to make Lu Murongzi happy.
"That's right, my senior and junior sisters are all very nice to me." Lu Murongzi thought about it and nodded. A smile appeared on her face again, and that pure happiness seemed to infect everyone.
When we returned to the square, the alchemy competition on the high platform was almost over. The most tense moment was the moment of condensing the pill. The air was filled with a repressive and tense atmosphere, as if even breathing became heavy. Half of the people had been eliminated, and only more than 30 alchemists were still holding on on the stage. They made hand seals flying, controlling the temperature of the alchemy furnace and the degree of fusion of the medicine, while the alchemy furnace hummed and rotated more than a foot above the ground under their control, as if performing a silent dance.
Lu Xuanxin noticed that Lu Fengshan's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, his face was a little pale, his brows were furrowed, and he looked like he was almost at his limit. His eyes revealed a kind of unyielding determination, a desire for victory, and a challenge to himself. On the other side, Gui Jianchou seemed much calmer, his face was normal, and he didn't seem to be affected too much. His eyes revealed a kind of confidence and calmness, a kind of confidence in alchemy skills, and also a control over himself.
If the two were to refine the same level and quality of pills at the same time, then Gui Jianchou's skills would undoubtedly be better. His alchemy skills were like flowing water, every move was just right, and every adjustment was extremely precise. But Lu Fengshan's advantage was that he was young and promising, and he still had a lot of room for improvement. His potential was like the rising sun, full of infinite possibilities.
Gui Jianchou seemed to feel Lu Xuanxin's gaze. He suddenly raised his head, looking directly at her through the crowd, with a wicked smile on his lips. It was a provocation and a challenge, as if saying, "Look, I am the best alchemist."
Then, his alchemy furnace stopped rotating. After a moment, the lid of the furnace opened gently, and a transparent green pill with a star mark appeared in his palm. This is a one-star high-grade Qingluo Pill! Qingluo Pill is extremely difficult to refine, and it is also a leader among one-star pills. Its effect is to quickly heal injuries, which is much faster than ordinary one-star healing pills. The appearance of this pill undoubtedly gave Guijianchou an advantage in the competition.
Lu Xuanxin frowned, feeling somewhat puzzled that Gui Jianchou had only refined one pill. She remembered that Gui Jianchou's alchemy skills should be more than this, so why did he only refine one pill this time? When she looked at Lu Fengshan again, she found that he had also successfully refined a pill.
Lu Fengshan refined a one-star Juling Pill, which was mainly used to quickly restore spiritual power. It also reached the high-level one-star level, but it did not reach the top grade. The Juling Pill and Qingluo Pill were equally difficult to refine, but one refined a top grade, and the other only refined a medium grade, which immediately distinguished the superiority and inferiority. This result surprised Lu Xuanxin. She thought Lu Fengshan could at least be on par with Guijianchou, but she did not expect that he was still slightly inferior.
The best among the other contestants was only a one-star intermediate-grade pill, and it was a mid-grade pill made by a 16-year-old boy. The appearance of this boy made Lu Xuanxin's eyes light up. She remembered that this boy's name was Fu Qingyuan, and he was an ordinary alchemist. He had no famous teacher to guide him, nor did he have rich spiritual medicine resources for him to practice, but he relied on his own efforts and talents to reach his current level. This tenacity and perseverance made Lu Xuanxin admire him.
Although Gui Jianchou won the championship, he was not very happy in his heart. He knew that Lu Fengshan was only 18 years old and could refine a one-star high-grade middle-grade elixir, which was unimaginable when he was just a layman five years ago. Lu Fengshan's qualifications and potential made him feel pressured, and also made him more determined to improve himself.
The path to advancement for an alchemist is much more difficult than that for a cultivator. It requires constant accumulation, comprehension, and improvement of cultivation, and special attention must be paid to the improvement of spiritual power. The refining of two-star elixirs is even more difficult. Not only does it require more spiritual medicines, but it also requires the addition of the spiritual cores of monsters. These spiritual cores contain the essence of the spiritual power of monsters throughout their lives. They are extremely violent and can cause the furnace to explode if you are not careful. Once the beast core explodes, the violent energy it generates is enough to kill a two-star alchemist in an instant. Therefore, the refining of two-star elixirs requires extremely high control of spiritual power and mental power.
In addition to Lu Fengshan, there is also a young alchemist named Fu Qingyuan who has attracted Gui Jianchou's attention. This 16-year-old one-star intermediate alchemist was born in an ordinary family. He had neither a famous teacher nor abundant spiritual medicine resources for him to practice, but even so, he has reached his current level. Gui Jianchou was secretly surprised. If Fu Qingyuan could be cultivated by the sect, then his achievements might really surpass Lu Fengshan. Moreover, both of them were born in places with scarce resources, which was even more precious compared to him, an alchemy genius from a large sect.
After a brief discussion, the five judges quickly determined the top five. In addition to Gui Jianchou and Lu Fengshan, the others also had their own strengths. They were either experienced in alchemy or had unique skills. Everyone had their own shining points and outstanding qualities.
At this time, a three-star peak alchemist named He from Yaowang Valley walked up to Gui Jianchou and gently patted his shoulder, as if to encourage him not to be discouraged and to keep working hard. This care from the senior made Gui Jianchou feel warm in his heart. He knew that his alchemy journey was still long, but as long as he persevered, he would reach the height he wanted one day.
Speaking of which, we alchemists all know what's going on in our hearts like a mirror, just like the water in a deep pool, clear to the bottom, but hiding unknown secrets. Others may be able to see a little of Gui Jianchou's mood at the moment, but the only one who can really untie the intricate knots in his heart is himself. In his deep eyes, there is a flash of unknown light, as if hiding endless stories and determination.
