Chapter 449: Drug Concoction (2/2)

”Wei Wu, this is the new gardener who knows how to concoct drugs?” The one speaking was a middle aged man.

Mo Wuji used his spiritual will to size up the man and he could immediately tell that he should be in the Heavenly Immortal Stage as the aura around him was much more intense than Kou Yuan. Even though his aura was intimidating, his spirituality was not as strong. Mo Wuji predicted that he should not be that powerful and Mo Wuji was confident that he could finish this fella off with his current cultivation level.

”Yes, Manager He. I’ve just questioned Mo Wuji and he told me that he knew how to concoct drugs,” Deacon Wei answered respectfully.

As he finished his piece, he turned to Mo Wuji and said, ”Wuji, this is the Manager He who is in charge of the administrative affairs of the Hundred Flowers Manor’s Drug Concoction Room.”

Mo Wuji clasped his fists towards the middle aged man and greeted, ”Mo Wuji greets Manager He.”

Manager He furrowed his brows a little because not only did this person in front of him has such a low cultivation Level, he had no manners too. Did Mo Wuji really think he could just clasp his fists without bowing when greeting someone of much higher status than him?”

Deacon saw the unhappiness in Manager He’s eyes so he hurried to pat Mo Wuji and said, ”Mo Wuji, hurry up and find an Earth fire then sit down and start concocting.”

”Many thanks Deacon Wei,” Mo Wuji could feel that this Manager He was clearly not very pleased with him and he even seemed as if he had the intentions to chase Mo Wuji away. Realising this, Mo Wuji hurried to find an Earth fire and started to ignite the fire immediately.

The moment Mo Wuju entered, he noticed that there were only immortal herbs here and Deacon Wei wasn’t lying when he said there were only Tier 1,2,3 immortal herbs here. No wonder Wen Lianxi wanted to send him here to study his drug Dao because this was the most suitable place to study purification.

Now that there were so many immortal herbs for him to concoct into drugs, why would he let this opportunity go to waste?

”Remember, the losses from your failed attempts would be deducted from your monthly allowance,” Manager He saw that Mo Wuji had already started concocting the drugs so he didn’t say much except to warn him.

Mo Wuji grabbed a Tier 1 Immortal Energy Grass because he saw such a herb in the jade letter that Wen Lianxi gave him but before he could attempt to concoct it, the jade letter was taken away by Qian Shan. Now that he had this opportunity again, he naturally wanted to try it.

After a few minutes, Mo Wuji was able to purify this herb as the solution ended up inside the jade vase beside him.

”What!” Manager He exclaimed in surprise as he saw Mo Wuji producing the purified solution.

Mo Wuji didn’t look old at all yet he managed to purify the herb so quickly and he did look extremely skillful for his age. It seemed like he had misjudged this Mo Wuji fella.

Mo Wuji heard Manager He and was equally as surprised because how could this Manager He be so capable that he was able to tell in an instant that Mo Wuji had achieved 90% purity?

At the thought of this, Mo Wuji heard a sound from where the neighbouring drug refiner placed his jade vase. Following which, a red radiance flashed by and the jade vase was immediately discarded.

Mo Wuji finally understood that the accepted solution would be send directly into the jade vase while the rejected one would be reported straightaway and then discarded.

This seemed like an assembly line job and he felt like he was a worker at the assembly line.

”Manager He, Deacon Wei, Manor Lord is looking for both of you,” A clear voice could be heard from outside the gate.

Deacon Wei and Manager He acknowledged the order and then walked out of the hall.

”This Dao Friend here, my name is Wang Hezhen and how may I address you?” The moment Manager He left, the drug refiner closest to Mo Wuji turned and asked. Wang Hezhen looked much older than Manager He and even he had some white hair growing out. Mo Wuji took a quick look at his cultivation level and concluded that he should be in the Earthly Immortal Stage. However, his eyes were a little turbid and had symptoms of edema which was clearly not something a cultivator should have.

Mo Wuji’s eyes fell on the herbs that he was purifying and realised there was nothing he could recognise in his pile. It appeared as though these were neither Tier 2 nor 3 herbs.

”My name is Mo Wuji and I would love to have Brother Wang’s guidance in the future,” Mo Wuji stopped with his work as he greeted Wang Hezhen.

Wang Hezhen hurried to shake his hand, ”No, no. Brother Mo’s refining technique is much better than mine and my guess is that the Immortal Energy Grass that you purified earlier on had a 90% pure essence. Even though it was a Tier 1 immortal herb, to be able to achieve 90% purity was extremely difficult.”

Mo Wuji praised this fella in his heart because he did achieve 90% purity earlier on. He believed that as long as he tried a few hundred times, he would be able to achieve 99% and once he achieved that, he would move on to the Tier 2 immortal herbs. When Mo Wuji finally managed to achieve 99% purity for even Tier 3 herbs, he would leave the Hundred Flowers Manor because there wouldn’t be any more reason for him to stay.

This was also why he didn’t waste time doing meaningless things the moment he reached this place as he started work immediately.

”Brother Wang, in actual fact, I’ve just started embarking on this career and I only know of a few Tier 1 immortal herbs. I realised that the herbs Brother Wang is purifying are of higher tiers than mine and I don’t even recognise the names of some of these herbs,” Mo Wuji clasped his fists and said as he was prepared to learn a few things from this Wang Hezhen.

”You don’t recognise this Silver Rings Flower?” Wang Hezhen looked curiously at Mo Wuji and even the few other drug refiners stared at Mo Wuji when they heard the conversation.

Which other drug refiner wouldn’t recognise the Tier 2 Silver Rings Flower?
