Immortality Cultivation: I Can increase My Stats Using Clansmen's Qi-Blood

Chapter 172: Chapter 109: The Spirit Medicine Sect, a Subordinate Sect of the Wan Dan Sect? The First Yellow Grade Alchemist Who Wanted to Join!_2
 

“To grow Spiritual Medicine, aside from having seeds, we also need spiritual soil.”

“Spiritual soil?” Luo Changfeng’s brow furrowed slightly as he asked, “What is spiritual soil?”

“Naturally, it’s a special type of soil that contains spiritual power…”

“Besides this spiritual soil, if seeds are to grow into a plant that can be used for alchemy, various aspects of the environment for growing Spiritual Medicine also need adjustment.”

“During this process, if any errors occur…”

“The Spiritual Medicine either dies or fails to reach the required level of spiritual power value.”

“As such, the Spiritual Medicine naturally cannot be used to concoct elixirs above the mundane level.”

“In short, nurturing a plant of Spiritual Medicine to the standard usable for alchemy is an extremely tedious process.”

“Therefore, our Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect has always purchased materials directly from the Main Sect instead of attempting to cultivate our own…”

…

As Luo Changfeng listened to Fu Qiu’s words,

he couldn’t help but fall into a period of silence.

He indeed had not realized

that to cultivate qualified Spiritual Medicine,

to nurture a plant of Spiritual Medicine to a degree capable of being used in alchemy,

would be so cumbersomely complex…

“If that’s the case, where does the Main Sect get its alchemy materials from?”

After a long silence, Luo Changfeng suddenly asked.

“There’s something you might not be fully aware of, Elder Luo.”

“Under the Wan Dan Sect’s Main Sect, there is a Sect named the Spirit Medicine Sect.”

“This Spirit Medicine Sect is specifically responsible for cultivating various kinds of Spiritual Medicine.”

“And the output of Spiritual Medicine within this Sect…”

“Is essentially all consumed by the Wan Dan Sect.”

With this, Luo Changfeng understood everything.

He also realized why the Main Sect of the Wan Dan Sect had such a strong control over its sub-sects.

Just with alchemy materials alone, the Main Sect could easily manipulate the sub-sects.

You could say even more so for other precious items.

For example, Beast Fire used in alchemy or Spirit Fire that naturally forms.

Or various special materials and rare, special Spiritual Artifacts.

To obtain these, one would have to purchase them personally from the Main Sect.

…

“In that case, let’s not discuss the matter of cultivating Spiritual Medicine ourselves.”

“How has the Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect been doing recently?”

“Is the Spirit Stone revenue from the Shadow Stone sufficient to support the alchemists’ salaries, as well as the various benefits?”

Underneath the Stone Pavilion,

after taking a sip of tea, Luo Changfeng asked again.

“Elder Luo, you wouldn’t know, but recently our Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect’s development has been spectacular…”

As soon as this topic came up, Fu Qiu became excited.

He had never seen such a prosperous time since he joined the Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect.

In the Da Feng Dynasty, countless alchemists

are all eager to squeeze into our Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect.

Not only those who can only concoct mediocre elixirs, but there is also no shortage of alchemists capable of concocting mundane-grade elixirs.

Even Yellow Grade low-level alchemists.

During this period, the Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect has recruited a dozen or twenty from outside.

If this momentum continues…

Perhaps in less than three years, our Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect might surpass the Changqing Prefecture Sub-sect.

Replacing the Changqing Prefecture Sub-sect as the Da Feng Dynasty’s holy land for alchemists.

As for that Shadow Stone, which opened a new channel for earning Spirit Stones,

this business is simply booming.

The number of Spirit Stones that can be earned is countless.

With elixirs, it’s a one-off deal.

Once sold and the commission is taken, that’s it.

But with the Shadow Stone, it’s a business that keeps on giving.

Nearly every alchemist needs to check it every few days.

Each viewing requires a fee.

And still, those alchemists are happy to do so.

This left Fu Qiu at a loss for words.

“Is that so?”

“This is indeed somewhat unexpected.”

Luo Changfeng slightly bowed his head, falling into deep thought.

“Elder Luo, after our sub-sect has saved up a bit more Spirit Stones, I plan to do some construction work within the Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect.”

“Then, purchase some Yellow Grade low-level Alchemy Furnaces exclusive to our sect.”

“This way, we can rent out those Yellow Grade low-level Alchemy Furnaces to alchemists in the sub-sect.”

“Over time, this will become another channel for earning Spirit Stones.”

“Elder Luo, what do you think?”

Below the Stone Pavilion, Fu Qiu asked tentatively, looking somewhat nervous.

“That’s a good suggestion.”

“Proceed with it.”

After thinking, Fu Qiu turned to Luo Changfeng and asked, “Elder Luo, in the past few days, a Yellow Grade low-level alchemist friend of mine has contacted me, saying he wants to join our Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect.”

“Do you think we should accept him or not?”

Luo Changfeng asked with some confusion, “Why do you ask?”

Normally, even a Yellow Grade low-level alchemist is extremely precious to the current Luoshan Prefecture.

Surely such an alchemist should be accepted!

But now, Fu Qiu was bringing this question to him,

which meant there must be some issue with it.

Fu Qiu swallowed nervously, hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice, “Alchemists who have reached the Yellow Grade are often the apple of every sub-sect’s eye, their untouchable treasure.”
