When the Alchemist Guild began to take shape, Master Hu Gu did not hide from the invited alchemists who the real proposer of the Alchemist Guild was, and did not take credit for this achievement. Moreover, as the first person to propose it, Master Hu Gu insisted on inviting Gu Yao to participate in the formulation of various rules and regulations of the Alchemist Guild.
Of course, under the current situation, Master Hu Gu still asked the alchemists present to keep it secret for the time being. Once the news leaked out, no one knew whether they would be attacked by the forces lurking in the dark. The character of the alchemists who came at his invitation could basically be guaranteed. Although they had selfish motives, they had no problem in terms of right and wrong, and they stood on the side of the Tianlin Continent.
"I didn't expect it to be that young alchemist. He really has a lively mind." An old alchemist with a big beard sighed.
"A lively mind is secondary. The key is to have a broad mind. I have heard the name of this emerging alchemist several times. I used to think he was a lucky kid, but now I know that his success is not unreasonable. He is a rare and generous young man."
"Yes, if we have more talented cultivators like Alchemist Gu on our Tianlin Continent, why should we worry about the prosperity of our cultivation world?"
Gu Yao received Master Hu Gu's message and did not refuse this matter. He himself also had the idea of organizing the Alchemist Guild, hoping that the Alchemist Guild could truly play the role of spreading alchemy and cultivating more excellent alchemists, instead of rejecting the cultivators who had talent and aspiration outside the door.
He was so lucky in his two lifetimes. In his previous life, he was born as a poor man, but was discovered by his master, who noticed his extraordinary spiritual power. He was brought back and carefully cultivated, and received the best education and resources as soon as he entered the door. In this life, not only did he have the memory of his previous life, but he also got the Dan Pavilion, which was a treasure for alchemists. The alchemy secrets and formulas that other alchemists dreamed of were just things at hand for him, and he could choose whatever he wanted.
But having all this does not mean that he does not know the value of these things and luck, nor does he not know the hardships of the lower-level cultivators. The more so, the more he could not monopolize them with a clear conscience.
Gu Yao drew on the successful aspects of the Pharmacist Guild, and combined the actual situation of the Tianlin Continent and the cultivation world, and wrote a very detailed plan. When this plan was passed to the headquarters of the Alchemist Guild, the alchemists present were stunned and amazed. They did not expect Gu Yao to consider everything so comprehensively, covering all aspects, such as linking the contribution value with the resources obtained from the guild, and various ways to obtain contribution value, which would not make people feel that they were cultivating the idea of getting something for nothing.
So the alchemists took this as a blueprint and reviewed and revised it one by one, and also invited representatives of several representative forces on the continent to solicit their opinions. The representatives of the cultivation forces in Shifang City also came, although they raised many questions on the spot, but they were all refuted by the alchemists led by Master Hu Gu. They could not openly obstruct the development of alchemy on the Tianlin Continent, otherwise they would become the public enemy of the cultivators on the whole continent.
The merchants gathered manpower to build a giant cauldron on the hillside next to the Alchemist Guild, symbolizing the alchemy furnace used by the alchemists. When the city built around the guild gradually took shape, the cultivators spontaneously called this city Dan Ding City, because no matter which direction you enter the city, the first thing that enters your eyes is that giant cauldron with a very strong presence. When you ask where the guild is, people will tell you that you just have to follow that big cauldron, and the guild is next to the big cauldron.
When most of the forces and cultivators on the continent focused on Dan Ding City and the Alchemist Guild, other series of changes were not so noticeable, such as Beixing Sect. Originally, the sect master was precarious under the pressure of the other two factions and the outside forces, and even the position of the sect master was in danger. But at this time, the alchemist who had been keeping a low profile stood up and stood on the side of the sect master's faction, and the situation immediately reversed, and what followed was the sect master's liquidation.
The opposition factions were furious, and when they failed to seize the position of the sect master, they wanted to split the sect and rule, leading their own cultivators to leave the Beixing Sect and establish another sect. This would take away not only the disciples in the sect, but also a large amount of cultivation resources in the sect.
But when they announced their departure from the sect, they found that many of the disciples who had been deceived quietly withdrew and stayed in the original sect. Although the high-levels were the decisive force, without a large number of disciples, how could they establish a sect?
The sect master took advantage of the situation and attacked, claiming that these factions had joined the anti-continent forces that called themselves "exterminators", and their purpose was to cut off the root of the cultivation world of the Tianlin Continent and suppress the cultivators of the Tianlin Continent. He mobilized a large number of people to encircle and suppress these rebellious rebels.
When Master Hu Gu announced to the whole continent that the Alchemist Guild was officially established, Beixing Sect also completed the internal cleansing, losing a lot of manpower for this. Because the incident had ended, everyone just paid attention to the result of this matter, and found that the sect master's faction still occupied the main position, so they didn't have much interest. Only the forces who knew Beixing Sect well knew that Beixing Sect had lost several high-level cultivators this time, and its strength was much worse than before. But this battle also allowed one of the elders to reach the edge of a breakthrough, and he had entered the closed-door cultivation.
So did Beixing Sect really lose its strength and status, or did it become more united and stronger after internal integration? Especially when the elder who closed the door and broke through successfully came out, the statement that Beixing Sect's strength declined would be even more ridiculous.
But for the disciples of Beixing Sect, the previous panic had not completely dissipated. They had killed demon beasts and participated in the action of resisting the beast tide, but they never expected that one day they would turn their guns and face their former fellow disciples. Who would have thought that the elders who used to be kind and friendly would take their lives to threaten the sect master when they turned around?
Lu Minzhu and Lu Minbai, the brother and sister, broke up. Perhaps this is so insignificant in the turmoil of the entire Beixing Sect, but it affects their future path.
Lu Minzhu had a special physique and was wooed by the rebel side with generous conditions. But Lu Minzhu's master was on the side of the sect master's faction, so Lu Minzhu didn't want to get involved in this dispute at all. She stayed in the sect and was still given key training.
But she didn't expect that her brother who stayed in the outer sect was deceived by the other side. Lu Minbai enjoyed a lot of benefits because of his sister's identity, but the outer sect was the outer sect, and he was always stepped on by the inner sect disciples everywhere. Plus, Lu Minzhu often closed the door and couldn't take care of Lu Minbai often. The outer sect was not a peaceful place. Lu Minbai, who had a high self-esteem and hid a sense of inferiority, was not liked by others in the outer sect, and there were endless secret exclusion and suppression. So when the rebel force threw an olive branch, he eagerly attached himself to it.
One of the elders promised him that as long as he succeeded, he would accept him as a disciple. The identity of the elder's disciple blinded Lu Minbai's eyes. In the final analysis, he was unwilling to be overtaken by his sister who used to need his care. Not only him, but the entire Lu family also needed to hold his sister. When the identity changed in the future, he would be the nobleman of the Lu family.
When the two sides broke up, Lu Minbai found an excuse to lure Lu Minzhu out. Lu Minzhu fell into the hands of the enemy and used it to threaten her master to betray the sect master. No matter which result the master chose, it was something Lu Minzhu didn't want to see, so she chose to save herself, seriously injured Lu Minbai and escaped, and was brought back to the sect master's camp by her senior brother.
When the liquidation came, the sect only spared Lu Minbai's life for Lu Minzhu's sake. They did not abolish his cultivation, nor did they take his life, but he could not stay as a disciple of Beixing Sect anymore.
The brother and sister met again, one high above, the other in a miserable state.
Lu Minbai was seriously injured, and the elixir that Lu Minzhu sent was thrown away by him. No one knew who it ended up with, so Lu Minbai still had a lot of injuries. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, his expression gloomy and vicious: "Are you satisfied now? From now on, there will be no one in Beixing Sect who will bother you. You are a high-ranking inner sect disciple of Beixing Sect, what do I count as?"
Lu Minzhu's expression was cold. After experiencing so many things, her feelings for this brother had also faded away. Now there was only coldness left: "I have already notified the family. If you are willing to go back to the family, just wait outside for a few days. If you don't want to, just go wherever you want, brother. You are not a child anymore. You don't need me, your sister, to worry about your future."
"You… good for you, Lu Minzhu. I knew you were the most heartless and ruthless. You could abandon Gu Yao without hesitation back then, and now you can abandon me, your brother. Isn't it because you think I'm dragging you down? I should have let the whole Beixing Sect see your true face. Ha, a woman who offended Gu Yao, Beixing Sect still treats you as a treasure? Aren't you afraid that Gu Yao will come back and take revenge on you?" Lu Minbai regretted it a long time ago. He regretted not spreading this matter earlier. Now he could only shout desperately, hoping that more people would hear it. Why did he lose everything now, and Lu Minzhu could still be high above as an inner sect disciple?
Lu Minzhu's face became colder: "Don't think of others as despicable and shameless as you. I was blind in the past, but Alchemist Gu's mind is not something you can fathom. You go, I don't think there will be many chances to meet in the future. Take care!"
After saying that, Lu Minzhu threw out her magic weapon without mercy, and flew away, leaving Lu Minbai to scream like a trapped beast behind her. Although it attracted some inner and outer sect cultivators to stop and listen to the gossip, not many people were really interested.
Lu Minzhu abandoned Gu Yao? Gu Yao was so high and unattainable, where did these cultivators get the chance to covet him? Lu Minbai was out of his mind, right? If it weren't for his sister, this guy would have been slapped to death by the sect master long ago. How dare he threaten the elder to betray the sect master? He was looking for death.
