"You have to identify every plant and medical ingredient in this room and write three uses for each of them. Some of them are made by grafting various plants. You need to identify each plant that makes up the drafted plant. The answers should be written into the jade placed in front of the plant. You have half an hour. The more materials you identify, the higher your final score will be."
Ba Yun took a look around the hall after he heard this. He saw that there were hundreds of plants in this hall. And among them, Bai Yun recognized maybe five of them. And if he was asked to identify them, Bai Yun would not be able to do so. This was only the first test, and Bai Yun had already failed miserably.
"Uncle Qin, I know you can hear me. Its Little Tian. Long Tian. I need your help. Would you come out and see me." Bai Yun shouted.
But even after he shouted there was no change in the air. Bai Yun stared ahead for a while. He then smiled lightly. He knew that if the G.o.d of Alchemy had left behind a soul portion in his legacy site he would be able to communicate with hi. If he hadn't, well then he was out of luck. So Bai Yun decided to continue and test his luck.
"You know I can prove who I am." Bai Yun continued. "You were there on the day I tried to condense the nameless star. You saved my life that day."
Bai Yun then continued to tell stories about the two of them, and the times that they had met. But even after ten minutes, there was no response from the G.o.d of Alchemy.
Bai Yun sighed. "I was hoping it wouldn't come to this." Bai Yun said. "You know there is a story I know about you that I have kept hidden. This is a story that maybe you wouldn't mind if I told everyone. There was a day when you came to our mansion when father was out in order to meet mother. You had come in order to the infinitude heavenly thought technique. But mom wouldn't hand it over. So you did something."
Bai Yun stood and stared for a while. Not seeing any reaction, he continued.
"You know I can tell this story to everyone in the outside world." Bai Yu said. "So should I continue or-"
Just as he was about to continue a sigh rang through the hall. Then the entire hall started to transform and slowly fade. "There's no need to go any further, I believe you." Then the voice rang out one more time.
Bai Yun stood there and watched as the hall slowly disappeared. After a moment the entire hall changed into a small room. Of course, it was only small from the perspective of the earlier hall. It was over a hundred meters in each of the three directions. There was a small table in the center of the room, and a young man was sitting at the table. He glanced at Bai Yun as he appeared in the good.
"It's been a while uncle Qin." Bai Yun greeted the G.o.d of Alchemy.
"You were such a good kid." The G.o.d of Alchemy said. "Now you have even learned to blackmail people. What happened? How did you come in here? Why did your looks change? And why is your cultivation base so low?"
"It's a long story." Bai Yun said as he sat down opposite to the G.o.d of Alchemy. Bai Yun then spend the next half an hour explaining what happened to him. The G.o.d of Alchemy was quite surprised that Bai Yun was able to kill the devil emperor. This piece of the G.o.d of Alchemy was from just before the final battle and knew the strength of the devil emperor well.
He was also surprised by the fact that Bai Yun had managed to reincarnate. After Bai Yun explained everything that had happened to him since his reincarnation as well as the reason he came to find the G.o.d of Alchemy, he fell silent.
The G.o.d of Alchemy stared at Bai Yun for a while. Just as Bai Yun was wondering what he was going t do, the G.o.d of Alchemy finally asked him "What are you going to do with your life?"
Bai Yun was confused by the question. He stared at the G.o.d of Alchemy questioningly before answering "Just live normally I guess. Cultivate and become a t.i.tled G.o.d once again."
"Don't you have any other desires?" The G.o.d of Alchemy asked.
"What else is there?" Bai Yun replied.
"Let me ask you in another way. In your entire life other than fighting and training what have you done." the G.o.d of Alchemy asked.
Bai Yun was confused by the question. "What else is there?"
The G.o.d of Alchemy was exasperated with his answer.
"I meant have you ever loved." The G.o.d of Alchemy asked. "Have you ever lost anything. Have you ever wanted to desperately hold on to something, yet had to watch as it slipped through your fingers."
"No." Bai Yun said. "But why does it matter? All of that sounds quite horrible. Shouldn't you try to avoid such incidents?"
"You said that the people who are your family in this life have less experience than you." The G.o.d of Alchemy said. "But that is only with respect to your fighting experience. When it comes to life I am sure that they have much greater experience than you. That is why you should listen to them and not be dismissive as you currently are."
"You were born with the greatest talent in history as the son of some of the greatest and strongest people in the universe." the G.o.d of Alchemy continued. "In many ways, it gave you an advantage in life and a great outlook on the world. But in many ways, it also restricted your path. Unlike some, I never believed that you would be able to reach the t.i.tled G.o.d level without experiencing life. And I was right. You only managed to break through after you felt the pain of loss. I think that this life will help you a lot. I think you will go much farther than you could in your past life."
Bai Yun stared at the G.o.d of Alchemy for a while. He did not know what to say.
"It's fine. let's talk about happier things." The G.o.d of Alchemy said. "How far do you intend to go on the Alchemy path."
"I intend to go the distance." Bai Yun said. "This time I intend to reach the t.i.tled G.o.d level in Alchemy. Alongside the t.i.tled G.o.d level in other paths also."
"Then do you know what is the important thing in reaching t.i.tled G.o.d realm for the Alchemy path." The G.o.d of alchemy aked.
"I know that you need to master a technique, but I don't know which one." Bai Yun replied.
"True." The G.o.d of alchemy explained. "The thing is to become a G.o.d realm alchemist you not only need to master the relevant knowledge and recipes, but you also need to master the skill of perfect concoction. In perfect concoction, the entire medical effect of the pill is used and it is no longer able to distinguish its components from the final pill. But I have recorded perfect concoction in the legacy. You can study it in detail later."
"But the path to a t.i.tled G.o.d requires you to master creating something out of nothing." The G.o.d of Alchemy continued. "Most importantly this skill is done differently for each person. So I haven't put any explanation about it in the legacy. Even if I did, it wouldn't be of any help as it is impossible for you to understand my experience. You will have to reach that level on your own. So what I am going to do is to explain to you what it means. You may not understand it right now. Just remember everything I say."
Then the G.o.d of Alchemy spend the next hour explaining the key points regarding the final level of Alchemy. Bai Yun sat patiently and remembered every word he heard.
"Alright. That is that. I'll give you my legacy now." The G.o.d of Alchemy finally said.
Then the G.o.d of Alchemy slowly raised his hand. There a small cauldron appeared. This was the highest level legacy reward of the Alchemy path, Then the G.o.d of Alchemy slowly started to modify the contents of the legacy. The legacy was originally geared towards those at the dao step who had a great foundation in the alchemy path. But Bai Yun did not have it. So he needed to change the legacy in order to make it so that he would be able to accept it without any faults.
As time pa.s.sed the small cauldron became more and more perfect. Complex patterns started to appear on it. At the same time, the G.o.d of Alchemie's soul incarnation started to become more and more transparent and fainter.
"Uncle Qin, what are you doing?" Bai Yun asked after seeing that something was wrong.
"I am not just adding the knowledge that you require. I am also adding my experience, my failures, and everything else that I have ever done in the alchemy path. This will make it easier for you to comprehend the alchemy path." G.o.d of Alchemy explained.
"But that is the same as putting a part of your soul into the legacy. This will cause your soul incarnation to become destabilized. You would die!"
The G.o.d of Alchemy laughed when he heard this. "What do you mean I would die." He asked. "I am already dead. All that is left of me is a soul incantation that cannot leave this legacy site. It doesn't matter if I exist or not. The important thing is that it will help you grow."
"Why is that important? Besides I don't need your help in rowing." Bai Yun replied.
The G.o.d of Alchemy only smiled. "You might have reached the t.i.tled G.o.d realm, but there are many things about this world that you don't know. Things that were hidden especially from you. If you want to know the truth about yourself, then you should find that crazy old man. Only he can truly explain the reasons for your existence."
Bai Yun was stunned when he heard this. He did not understand what the G.o.d of Alchemy was talking about. Was there some sort of secret behind his birth.
While Bai Yun stood there confused, the G.o.d of Alchemy had finished his task. A small exquisitely crafted cauldron stood in the center of his palm. It was slowly rotating while giving off a divine glow.
But the G.o.d of Alchemy also had to pay a certain price for it. The lower half of his body had disappeared, while the top half was mostly transparent by now. He was flickering like a candle in the wind.
"Quickly take it. I won't be able to hold it for much longer. Once I disappear, you will have to properly pa.s.s the trials in order to get it." The G.o.d of Alchemy said.
Bai Yun awoke from his stupor immediately. He looked at the G.o.d of Alchemy with a complex look in his eyes. He then stood up and kowtowed before the G.o.d of Alchemy before walking up to him and reaching out to the small cauldron without a word.
The moment Bai Yun's hands touched the cauldron, it melted as it pa.s.sed through his body into the middle of his forehead. As Bai Yun stood there, he slowly let himself go and allowed the force of the legacy site to take him out of the dao repository.
The G.o.d of Alchemy watched as Bai Yun slowly disappeared. The surroundings also became dark and he also started to fade away. He then spoke aloud as if to no one.
"Old man I think you were wrong at that time. I think the reason this brat was born is just beginning."
