Extracting Billions Of Toxins And Tempering An Unsullied Body

Chapter 75: The Mysterious Old Man

After seeing who Green Lotus Princess was talking about, elder Zhao fell into silence. After a moment, he said, “I can’t see through him.”

When he said this, Green Lotus Princess was a little surprised.

“Is there anyone in this world that Elder Zhao can’t see through?”

Even though Elder Zhao had only caught a glimpse of Gu Xi just now, Gu Xi had left an extremely deep impression on him. It did not matter if it was Gu Xi’s choice of words or the aura around him.

Green Lotus Princess casually fiddled with the bead curtain, her clear voice ringing in his ears. “Hearing you say this, I’m even more curious about whether he can refine a peerless divine weapon...”

After a moment, Elder Zhao hesitantly said, “Perhaps not.”

Although Gu Xi did not seem to be boasting, even if he had the heart to create a peerless weapon, he did not have the strength or the ability to do so.

“This kid has shone brilliantly in the alchemy competition. Even Alchemy Emperor Lu personally came down to praise him. No, let me rephrase... Back then, Lu Haoxuan’s attitude was extremely respectful. He almost worshipped Gu Xi like a god.”

“No one has ever been able to dominate in the alchemy and weapons paths at the same time and achieve extraordinary achievements.”

Elder Zhao’s words were firm and decisive. This was also a well-known truth. Everyone knew that there were such outstanding figures in the ancient times. However, at that time, the spiritual energy was abundant. It was simply impossible now.

A person’s spirit was limited. It was already very rare for one to be able to study one path and achieve extraordinary achievements. How could it be possible to cultivate two paths at the same time?

“It’s a pity that you said that. I couldn’t spare time that day and couldn’t witness that match.”

A gentle breeze blew, and the beautiful face under the white veil was faintly discernible. As the beaded curtains collided, the last sentence dissipated into the air, almost inaudible.

“Elder Zhao doesn’t have much time for us. We must quickly find that person. Perhaps this match will be an opportunity to...”

Elder Zhao’s expression changed slightly. “Princess, please don’t worry. I understand.”

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure had already disappeared. It was like he was never there.

Green Lotus Princess faintly sighed. She looked to the sky, and her gaze carried a sort of indistinct sorrow and mystery. As the most respected princess in the capital, it was unknown what secret she was hiding.

“Pass down the order. The competition can begin.”

Clang–

The distant sound of a bell rang out, drifting through the mountains and forests. It carried an ancient and heavy aura, startling countless birds. It was as if even some sort of existence on Sword Mountain had been awakened.

Countless people raised their heads to look. They saw a curtain of light rise into the air. It carried a powerful and unfathomable aura, isolating the participants and spectators. This curtain of light acted as a protective barrier. The spectators could still see the scene inside clearly.

Ou Yechen, Bai Haoyu, Wang Dazhu, and the others quickly began to move. The other participants followed closely behind.

The materials prepared by Bai Haoyu were the most luxurious. In short, there was nothing that could not be seen. Any one of the raw materials would cause countless refiners to fight over it.

“It is said that the Frost Jade Ice Particles are extremely rare. It takes a lot of time to produce them. I wonder where the Bai Clan found so many of them.”

“The Great Swamp Divine Sand is often found in the Eight Desolates Great Swamp. With the appearance of the mirage, ordinary people can’t touch it at all. Even if they enter it, they will easily get lost!”

“Isn’t this the Water of Lightness that has long been lost? I didn’t expect the Bai Clan to have some in their inventory!”

...

Golden light shone brightly, and spiritual energy flickered. Everyone was dumbstruck. They knew that the Bai Clan had a deep foundation, but they had no idea that what they had seen in the past was just the tip of the iceberg.

Even some of the major sects could not afford to use such precious materials. However, Bai Haoyu’s collection had all these magnificent and rare materials. People could not help but sigh at how deep their foundation was.

“In the past, it was always said that the Bai Clan possessed countless spirit veins and minerals. In fact, they were so rich that they could rival a nation. At first, I thought it was a bit of an exaggeration. But now that I look at it, it really does live up to its reputation. Even if all the people present were to put their efforts together, they wouldn’t be able to compare. ”

“There are some things that no longer exist in this world. I never thought that I would actually be able to see them here.”

“Isn’t that right? Even if Bai Haoyu’s craftsmanship is average, with the help of these materials, his crafted weapons and artifacts would still be extraordinary.”

Furthermore, although Bai Haoyu looked like a sheltered brat, his strength was not that of a weakling. Otherwise, he would not have received such an evaluation from Elder Zhao.

Bai Haoyu showed off the Thousand-year-old Frigid Iron, the Extraterrestrial Meteorite, the Blazing Pupil Gold that he had collected from the depths of the Earth’s core. He also had the sturdiest materials in the depths of the ocean.

Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and other elements were attracted by a particular type of attraction and were very active in the air. Although these rare materials could raise the grade of the weapon, they also required a certain amount of ability to fuse with it.

Bai Haoyu’s actions were orderly and fluid, as if he had already forged them countless times. Just from this, it could be seen that his strength was not simple.

“With so many materials, what exactly is he trying to refine? It’s true that having many materials is good, but you have to mix them well in order to bring out the greatest effect. Otherwise, it will only backfire.”

“Some people just say that grapes are sour because they can’t eat them. Why do you care about what he’s doing? Stop trying to boss others around. If you have the ability, then go and participate in the competition.”

The competition had just begun, and there was already a dispute outside the stadium.
