Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 77 Promotion and Gift

Ningfa chuckled in his heart.

Ning Ruiming was right, he was indeed cheating with the help of the mysterious scroll.

In the past three months, he has refined the Sanyuan Pill at least five or six hundred times.

If calculated using spirit stones, he had spent at least tens of thousands of spirit stones on spiritual materials.

This amount can buy a foundation-building pill.

Moreover, the spiritual materials for Sanyuan Dan are precious, and in many cases, even if you have spiritual stones you may not be able to buy the main spiritual materials.

It can be said that the amount of Sanyuan Pills that Ning Ruiming has refined since he entered the Alchemy Hall is far less than what Ning Fa has refined in the past three months.

In the past three months, Ning Ruiming had participated in the alchemy competition. With the support of the three elders and the branch clan, he had only been able to obtain more than 70 spiritual materials for Sanyuan Pills to practice.

So it was unfair that he lost to Ningfa, but not unfair at all.

Ningfa added another blow with a smile on his face:

"If Brother Ruiming is unwilling, you can choose any other first-grade intermediate elixir to compete. I am willing to do it."

Wei Chengzong, who was stroking his beard, widened his eyes and almost pulled out his beard.

He made up his mind instantly to bleed heavily to make up for his previous mistake.

Seeing Ning Fa's vindictive look really frightened him.

"This kid is so bad."

Ning Shaohong laughed and cursed in his heart, and then he heard a crisp "click" sound coming from the side.

She looked at Ning Jiannan standing beside her.

Ning Jiannan's face turned pale at this moment, and he subconsciously crushed the armrest of the chair.

At this time, Ning Weize looked at the second and third elders on the left and chuckled, "Second and third brothers, I think with Xiaofa's talent for alchemy, we don't need to wait for him to master the other two first-level intermediate-grade elixirs. How about directly evaluating him as the family's first-level intermediate-grade alchemist?"

Although there are differences in seniority among the foundation-building elders, once they advance to the foundation-building stage, they will be directly addressed according to the family sequence.

The second elder Ning Weidong nodded and said with a faint smile: "I reconsider. With the alchemy talent that Xiaofa showed today, he has already caught up with Ancestor Chu Yun. I think we can make special arrangements. What do you think, Third Elder? After all, the Alchemy Hall is under your jurisdiction."

Ning Zhongjiu's face showed no emotion. He nodded gently and said calmly, "Old Four and Second Brother are right. I hereby announce that Ning Fa will be officially promoted to the first-class middle-grade alchemist of the family today, effective immediately."

Although Ning Zhongjiu's voice was not loud, it spread throughout the auditorium and everyone could hear it clearly.

Ning Fa was stunned at first.

Although it was only a matter of time for him to become a first-class intermediate-grade alchemist, it was a pleasant surprise that he was successfully promoted today.

He bowed to the foundation-building elders and said loudly, "Thank you, elders."

At this time, Ning Zhongjiu smiled faintly and said, "Alchemy Hall has such a talented person. As the head of the Alchemy Hall, I have to express my gratitude. I will give this magic weapon to you."

After saying that, Ning Zhongjiu snapped his fingers.

A green light flew in front of Ning Fa and turned into a small green mirror.

This mirror is the size of a palm, with a simple shape and intricate spiritual patterns.

There is a faint green vortex on the mirror, rotating slowly.

At first glance, it seems to be able to suck people's heart in.

On the back of the small mirror are engraved two ancient characters: "Qing Ning".

A powerful spiritual pressure emanated from this small green mirror, which frightened Ning Fa.

This magic weapon has definitely reached the level of a top-grade magic weapon, and it is not an ordinary top-grade magic weapon.

Several elders on the platform looked at Ning Zhongjiu in surprise.

Ning Shaohong's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he chuckled and said, "Xiaofa, this is the Third Elder's Qing Ning Treasure Mirror, which was the Third Elder's famous treasure in the past. It has both offensive and defensive capabilities and is powerful. It is a top-grade magic weapon. Why don't you thank the Third Elder?"

Ning Fa quickly said, "Thank you, Third Elder." Then he put the small bronze mirror into his storage bag.

He seemed to be thinking about something in his mind, and probably guessed some of Ning Zhongjiu's intentions in giving him the treasure.

Rewarding him for his performance today was probably the superficial reason, but perhaps more of it was to show goodwill to Ningfa.

After all, Ning Fa's father Ning Zhiyuan had lost to Ning Jiannan in the competition for the throne, but that was because Ning Jiannan obtained several powerful treasures from Ning Zhongjiu.

Now that Ning Zhongjiu has bestowed his famous treasure on Ning Fa, it is very likely that he wants to make up for something.

But Ningfa was not someone who was easily impressed, but he certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to refuse it now.

Seeing this, Ning Jiannan, who already looked grim, looked even more gloomy.

Ning Zhongjiu looked at Ning Fa again, smiled faintly, and then turned and left.

He never looked at Ning Ruiming again from beginning to end.

Ning Weidong also stood up. He glanced at Ning Shaohong who was smiling. A strange look flashed in his eyes, and then he stood up and left.

Ning Weize looked at Ning Fa and said with a gentle smile: "Xiao Fa, I hope you can advance to the late stage of Qi training as soon as possible and become the first-class high-quality alchemist of the family."

Ning Fa said respectfully: "Boy, you will definitely work hard."

Seeing Ning Shaohong looking at him with a faint smile, he couldn't help but look at her with gratitude.

He was able to win the competition this time thanks to Ning Shaohong’s great support.

Ning Shaohong nodded, then took light steps and left with Ning Weize.

Ning Fa looked at Ning Jiannan with a smile on his face.

Ning Jiannan snorted coldly, stopped looking at him, and walked away dejectedly with the distraught Ning Ruiming.

Ning Fa rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Brother Ruiming, don't forget our bet. Although I am not in a hurry to move to Dan Hall, I don't want to wait too long."

Ning Ruiming's body froze and he visibly shook, but he was still forcibly dragged away by his father.

The competition finally came to an end with Ningfa's great victory.

"Brother Fa, congratulations on your promotion to the family's first-class intermediate-grade alchemist!"

Ning Jideng trotted over and congratulated with a smile on his face.

The way Ningfa was addressed also changed naturally.

At this moment, he no longer had the slightest intention of competing with Ning Fa. He was only thinking about how to establish a good relationship with Ning Fa.

Ningfa responded with a smile, not taking the man's previous cold attitude towards him seriously.

"Xiao Fa, well done! I have a feeling you might be able to achieve the same level of accomplishment as our ancestor Chu Yun."

At this time, Ning Shumou, a man with white hair and a youthful face, also came over, patted Ning Fa on the shoulder and said with emotion.

Facing this old man, Ning Fa did not dare to neglect him and said modestly: "Uncle Mou, you are too kind. I am still far behind. How dare I compare myself with Ancestor Chu Yun?"

Ning Shumou smiled but said nothing. He patted Ning Fa on the shoulder and said, "Now you are at the same level as me. If you have any doubts about alchemy in the future, feel free to come to me. Although my alchemy talent is far inferior to yours, some of my alchemy experience should still be able to help you."

"Thank you, Uncle Mou."

Ning Fa thanked him sincerely.

He felt Ning Shumou's sincere heart.

He was truly happy that the Ning family had produced a talent like Ning Fa, and he, who was used to intrigue and deception, couldn't help but respect them.

At this time, other alchemy apprentices also rushed over, wanting to congratulate Ning Fa and make themselves known to him at the same time.

Ning Fa responded one by one without ignoring anyone, which made these alchemy apprentices even feel flattered.
