I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 475: Chapter 335: Secret_1

After the harvest, Yan Jinye, accompanied by a group of disciples from the alchemy division, paid a visit.

Over the past two years, her reputation skyrocketed within Divine Wood Sect, all thanks to the elixir recipe she acquired from Chen Mobai.

For an alchemist, a strong start would launch them into a virtuous cycle.

After experimenting with over a dozen batches of medicinal herbs, Yan Jinye finally discovered the knack and produced mature pills.

Given the Tianhe Realm’s indifferent attitude towards elixir toxicity, the pills Yan Jinye had refined, aimed at increasing one’s cultivation level, quickly promoted throughout the Divine Wood Sect via the alchemy division.

The elixir formulas of immortal cultivation sects, perfected through countless modifications and clinical tests, were undoubtedly far superior to common elixirs available in the market, showing an effectiveness around 20-30% higher.

Every batch of elixirs refined by Yan Jinye was promptly sold out.

“Congratulations, junior sister. You’re now known as the top female alchemist in our sect. I heard that Director Zeng is considering retiring and letting you take over his position,” Chen Mobai said cheerfully on the top of Xiao Nanshan, pouring Yan Jinye a cup of white wine.

“It isn’t that easy. I do not have the experience of guarding four nations as he does. Besides, my master has been devoting to refining two batches of Foundation Building Pills for years, which has taken a lot of his cultivation time. He’s complaining about it to the new sect leader currently,” Yan Jinye shook her head, explaining the situation. At this moment, Zhuo Ming and Luo Yixuan also arrived.

Zhuo Ming was there to take the alchemy division disciples, brought by Yan Jinye, to brew medicinal wine. Being already familiar with her, the two leaders didn’t need to say much. After seeing her, they took leave from Chen Mobai and Yan Jinye immediately.

Luo Yixuan stayed to serve by the side, mainly to help pour wine.

“Indeed, refining a batch of Foundation Building Pills requires a whole year of devotion. Director Zeng has worked hard indeed,” Chen Mobai understood it as he had previously heard the differences between the orthodox and demonic beast Foundation Building Pills, their only commonalities being the required steps and various medicinal herbs. Zeng Woyou lost at least two years of cultivation time due to alchemy.

Chu Zuoshu had just assumed office. His prestige wasn’t as high as Meng Hong’s yet. It was no wonder that Zeng Woyou took this opportunity to strike.

“Actually, my master isn’t really considering retirement. He’s negotiating terms with the new sect leader. He wants to refine the orthodox Foundation Building Pills,” once they were alone after Zhuo Ming had taken the miscellaneous disciples down the mountain, Yan Jinye naturally revealed Zeng Woyou’s real plan.

Luo Yixuan, standing beside them, was slightly surprised to hear this news.

“Huh, weren’t all previous batches handed over to the Back to Sky Valley for refining?”

The medicinal fields of Divine Wood Sect could harvest ten Jade Marrow Golden Mushrooms, essential for refining Foundation Building Pills, every decade. Subtracting the three provided to Golden Cliff, the remaining seven, along with other supplementary medicines, would be assigned to Back to Sky Valley for processing.

As the top alchemy faction in the Eastern Wilderness, Back to Sky Valley could guarantee five or six successful pills per batch.

Even if Back to Sky Valley took one pill per batch as refinement expenses, Divine Wood Sect could still ensure approximately 30 Foundation Building Pills fell into their hands.

These pills would be provided first to the descendants of Foundation Establishment cultivators who died in battle for the sect or to cultivating families that contributed to Divine Wood Sect.

For instance, in the recent war against Mountain Shaker Peak, Bao from Lei Nation died in battle. Chu Zuoshu promised a compensation of one Foundation Building Pill.

This related to Divine Wood Sect’s reputation. Even if it meant not providing it to sect disciples, that pill must be personally handed to Bao Qiyuan, the successor of Bao family.

Besides Bao Qiyuan’s pill, Chu Zuoshu also promised Lian Chenghai and other three major cultivating families in Lei Nation that they could purchase a Foundation Building Pill from Divine Wood Sect anytime. If they demanded after this batch was manufactured, they would certainly receive priority.

After all, it was about the new sect leader’s reputation.

Five Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Divine Wood Sect died in the recent war against Mountain Shaker Peak. The five-pill expense must be considered to boost morale.

Therefore, it was highly probable that not all True Disciples could exchange a Foundation Building Pill this time when Jade Marrow Golden Mushrooms ripened.

Those ranked at the bottom could potentially miss out if their luck wasn’t favorable, and might have to wait for the next batch.

“With the advancement in age, master isn’t hoping for any breakthrough in his cultivation level now. He’s mainly thinking about refining different types of pills. Having refined four batches of Demonic Beast Foundation Building Pills already, he feels he has grasped the skills to refine Foundation Building Pills and wants to try an orthodox batch,” Yan Jinye explained. After listening, Chen Mobai nodded intuitively.

“What’s the sect leader’s opinion on this?”

“No response yet, which is why master is a bit upset. He proposed that since he’s getting old, he wants to retreat and focus on understanding the path to form a Gold Core, along with the previous Sect Leader. The rumour that I was taking over his position as the head of the alchemy division spread from there,” Yan Jinye revealed the truth about the situation after which Chen Mobai subtly shook his head.

Having just assumed the role of Sect Leader, Chu Zuoshu got into a slightly irretrievable situation because of Zeng Woyou’s actions.

“Senior brother, the sect leader certainly won’t back down, and my master finds it hard to back off after saying those words. Looks like we need someone to mediate between the two,” Yan Jinye suddenly said something that surprised Chen Mobai while he was pondering.

Luo Yixuan, on the side, also picked up the implications in Yan Jinye’s words and looked up in surprise.
