Chapter 106 - Spiritual Pill Mountain (2/2)
Lin Xuan's heart was moved. Although he recently came to You Prefecture, he already heard the name of Spiritual Pill Mountain. Although in terms of strength, among the many Sects in You Prefecture, it can only be ranked at the bottom.
However, even Biyun Mountain, Yixian gorge and Thunder Cloud Mountain Villa, the largest forces in the state of You Prefecture, will not easily offend the Spiritual Pill Mountain.
A Sect with a very detached status.
Because the Sect's cultivators have weak cultivation powers, but everyone is very good at Alchemy.
Everyone knows the importance of Alchemy, but cultivator that are willing to delve into it are rare.
There's an important reason for this. This knowledge can be said to be a wedding dress for others. To become an Advanced Level Alchemist, it takes a lot of time to study. Human energy is limited, even Cultivators are no exception. If you spend too much time on Alchemy, naturally you won't have the energy to learn other Magic spells, and improve your cultivation.
This is clearly the opposite of their original intention of pursuing the Immortal Path.
So, with the exception of a handful of people who are really interested in Alchemy, other cultivators seldom practice, and at most, understand to the basic level.
Alchemists are rare. Can be combined with Cultivation, and can not be separated from pills.
This makes an Alchemist's position highly respected. Even a cultivator from the Spirit Condensation Stage, as long as he's skilled in alchemy, experts much better then him will have to pay tribute.
In You Prefecture, no matter if it's Sect, a Family, or a Rogue Cultivator, no one is willing to offend the Spiritual Pill Mountain, because the lowest level of medicine pills, like the Essence Purifying Pills, can be Refined by themselves, but the other Higher Level medicine pills, after collecting the materials, they pay Spirit Stones and ask the Spiritual Pill Mountain to refine it.
And their success rate is relatively high.
The man can't be seen, and the sea can't be measured. The middle-aged uncle with squirrel head, is actually a person from the Spiritual Pill Mountain. Although the pattern on his waist shows that he's only a low-level apprentice, no one dared to neglect him.
”This one was disrespectful, your excellency is an Alchemist.”A Low-Rank cultivator salutes his fist: ”You just said that a Foundation Establishment Stage's trash Pill is good for improving one's cultivation base. What's going on? .”
”Yeah, tell us about it.”
...
Seeing everyone's admiration, the middle-aged uncle face showed a hint of color: ”A Foundation Establishment Stage's Trash Pill, if taken by a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, is of course not helpful to the promotion of their cultivation base, but at least it will not Damage the body.”
”That is not bad, isn't it useless if it's eaten for nothing?”
”Yes.” The stall owner nodded: ”But these Trash Pills, if they're taken by Disciples of the Spirit Condensation Stage, because the refined medicinal herbs are much more precious than a Essence Purifying Pill, so it will more or less improve your cultivation.”
”How much help?”
”That is hard to say.”A hint of embarrassment appeared on the middle-aged uncle's face : ”It depends on how many Impurities are contained in it. Its difficult to measure, In short, the effect of a Foundation Establishment Trash Pill is equivalent to a fifth or third of a Low Grade Purifying Essence Pill.”
”Only to this point!” Everyone looked disappointed, but after their frustration, they still prepared to exchange them with Spirit Stones. It is no wonder, for them, as Low-Rank cultivators, even as Sect Disciples, the Essence Purifying Pill that are distributed every month are too little. It's simply not enough for their cultivation.
It's even worse for a Rogue Cultivator or a small family. They don't have any Spiritual medicine. And can only rely one hard work. This kind of Spiritual Pills, which can enhance one's cultivation base, is not sold even in the big market. The Trash Pill in front of their eyes, although the effect is a little worse, but it's better than nothing.
