Chapter 69: Conditions for transferring to an Elixir Cultivator! (Please follow)

~7 min read 1,397 words

Only after Lin Mo walked to Zhuang Weiwan's courtyard did he realize that he had indeed overthought it just now.

As soon as he opened the password lock at the courtyard gate and pushed the door in, he saw a half-person-high ancient tripod placed in the pavilion atrium.

The ancient tripod had a majestic shape, smooth lines, and exquisite patterns carved on its surface, as well as runes full of Dao rhyme, making one unable to help but look at it a few more times.

The most critical thing was that this half-person-high three-legged tripod was in full swing, and wisps of flames and steam would occasionally emerge from the holes in the tripod body, raising the temperature of the entire courtyard by at least ten degrees.

Above the ancient tripod, smoke curled, as if a small thundercloud was floating in mid-air.

And Zhuang Weiwan was wearing that Qingshan Daoist robe, with her sleeves rolled up to her shoulders, revealing a pair of fair and powerful arms, and she was constantly pinching Dao formulas in her hands.

He saw wisps of flames floating out from her fingertips, slowly drilling into the holes of the ancient tripod along the holes.

Every entry of a wisp of flame could bring up a patch of rising clouds and mist.

After seeing Lin Mo come in, Zhuang Weiwan, who had two large dark circles under her eyes, turned her head to look at him:

"Lin Shidi, you're here? You find a place to sit first; I'll be done here in another two quarters of an hour."

Lin Mo responded casually while curiously examining Zhuang Weiwan's operation.

Is this the legendary alchemy?

Refining elixirs and taking medicine, achieving Dao and longevity.

From ancient times to the present, alchemy in Diyuan Star has been both a mysterious and popular thing.

In the era of Great Cultivation, even ordinary pharmacies can prescribe some basic therapeutic elixirs, but strictly speaking, those are so-called "fake elixirs."

The reason is very simple: true alchemy can only be operated after Foundation Establishment, by apprenticing and studying at an academy, and successfully transferring to the Elixir Cultivator profession.

The so-called alchemy in the mortal world is all processed by some special means to process drugs, a bit like the Traditional Chinese Medicine of Lin Mo's previous life.

It's just that this world has abundant spiritual energy, a wide variety of medicinal materials, and extraordinary medicinal power, so even the effect of "fake elixirs" is not bad.

For colds and fevers, two or three fake elixirs will cure the illness.

Even for heavier injuries, such as ruptured internal organs and broken ribs, it's not impossible to treat.

Of course, these "fake elixirs" are naturally incomparable to the effects of true elixirs.

For example, the Rank 1 Qi Refinement Powder that Lin Mo only farmed once is also a rare item that ordinary Qi cultivators in the mortal world can never replicate.

Senior Zhuang Shijie is actually an Elixir Cultivator!?

Lin Mo looked at Zhuang Weiwan, who was sweating profusely, and the curiosity in his eyes became more obvious.

If there was any profession of cultivator he was interested in besides Sword Cultivator, Elixir Cultivator must be one of them.

There was no other reason; those ordinary fake elixirs in the mortal world were already very valuable, let alone the elixirs refined by Elixir Cultivators?

When the time comes, just refine some virility-enhancing elixirs and sell them in the mortal world, wouldn't he make a fortune!

Half an hour passed quickly with Lin Mo's wild imagination.

He saw Senior Zhuang Shijie send the last wisp of Dao fire into the ancient tripod, and her hands pinched a Dao formula. He saw those holes that were still steaming and flaming seem to be covered by something, and they immediately stopped continuing to emit steam and flames.

Lin Mo waited until she was done before saying:

"Senior Zhuang Shijie is actually an Elixir Cultivator!"

The main major of Qingshan Sect is Sword Cultivator, just like Feng Shixiong before, so Lin Mo subconsciously thought that the senior brothers and sisters leading the team were also Sword Cultivator professionals.

Zhuang Weiwan wiped the sweat from her forehead and answered with a smile: "Fire-type spirit root, there's no way to choose Sword Cultivator, and I was admitted to Qingshan Sect by recommendation back then because of my fire spirit root."

Recommended again?

Lin Mo said in surprise: "Senior Zhuang Shijie doesn't seem simple either."

It's already very difficult to be admitted to the Nine Great Academies, and it's even more difficult to be recommended by the Nine Great Academies.

Only geniuses like Chu Wange, Chen Xuanzhi, or Long A have the qualifications to be recommended in advance.

Zhuang Weiwan smiled modestly:

"I was lucky enough to get second place on the Immortal Ranking, but the gold content of our generation is far inferior to yours. If it were this year, maybe I wouldn't even be able to get into the top five."

So you could still get into the top ten?

Lin Mo silently made a judgment on Zhuang Weiwan's aptitude in his heart; the minimum for those who could get into the top ten was at least a Heavenly Spirit Root.

He suddenly remembered something and asked curiously: "Then what about Brother He? What was his ranking back then?"

Zhuang Weiwan shook her head and said:

"It seems to be two generations later than me, I don't know the ranking, he shouldn't have entered the top ten of the Immortal Ranking, otherwise I would have an impression."

Lin Mo's eyes suddenly became a bit strange, which meant that Zhuang Weiwan not only had better aptitude than Brother He, but also entered the sect earlier than the latter.

Since you are his senior sister, and you are still being ordered around by the other party, aren't you too much of a pushover?

He thought to himself.

Zhuang Weiwan seemed to see what he was thinking and explained with a bitter smile:

"No way, the Sword Academy is like this, not to mention this is Qingshan Sect."

Lin Mo subconsciously thought of Chu Wange, and then thought of Feng Shixiong...

Compared to these two, Brother He's attitude seems okay?

Lin Mo thought for a moment and asked again: "Senior Zhuang Shijie, if I want to transfer to an Elixir Cultivator in Qingshan Sect, what are the conditions for apprenticing to the Elixir Academy?"

"Lin Shidi wants to apply for Elixir Cultivator?"

"I do have this idea."

Seeing him nod, Zhuang Weiwan hesitated for a moment before saying:

"First of all, the purity ratio of the fire-type spirit root cannot be too low, at least 69% or higher."

"If it's a dual spirit root, fire and wood are best, and neither can be lower than 65%."

Lin Mo: "..."

He actually calculated the increase ratio of the Heavenly-Rank spiritual item 【True Extreme Flame】 in his heart; maybe after full refining, it could make the fire-type spirit root reach a purity value of fifty-something percent.

It definitely won't exceed 60%!

This level can't even meet the minimum requirement for a dual spirit root.

Lin Mo still asked unwillingly: "What if it's a five-element spirit root? Will the requirements be lowered?"

As a team leader, Zhuang Weiwan naturally heard that his aptitude was very ordinary, and she showed him an apologetic expression:

"Qingshan Sect is one of the Nine Great Academies after all, and the inheritance requirements are higher than other ordinary academies."

Alas, Elixir Cultivator is out of the question again... Lin Mo sighed in his heart, but saw Zhuang Weiwan think of something and said again:

"Oh, if Junior Brother has strange fire, you can also apprentice through the hidden transfer task related to strange fire."

"Strange fire?"

"That's right, Elixir Cultivators who possess strange fire have extra bonuses in refining medicine, and even if their spirit root aptitude is slightly lower, they can have good achievements in the future."

Zhuang Weiwan answered like this.

Lin Mo thought for a moment, slowly stretched out his index finger in front of her, and then snapped his fingers—

With a "pop" sound, a small flame popped out from his fingertip.

The warm flame illuminated Lin Mo's face under the dim light of the courtyard, and he asked:

"Senior Zhuang Shijie, does this count as strange fire?" ===== CHAPTER 70 =====
