Chapter 50: Keep Calm and Carry On

rstand that it was indeed the pills they had swallowed before that allowed them to know their location at any time.The elder quickly regained his composure, a calm expression returning to his face. "U...When Jiang Yun left Zangfeng and arrived at the mountain gate, the two disciples responsible for guarding it naturally prepared to stop him. However, they didn't expect that another voice would sound in their ears, which shocked them while allowing Jiang Yun to pass through the mountain gate unimpeded again.

Until Jiang Yun's figure disappeared, one of the disciples murmured: "What is this kid's background Last time he went out of the mountain gate, it was Elder Sha who ordered us not to stop him. This time, he went out of the mountain gate, and it was the sect master himself who asked us to let him go, and even allowed him to enter and leave at will in the future!"

Another disciple shook his head and said, "Who knows! But this guy is quite unique. He doesn't even wear the clothes the sect distributes, he just runs around in a piece of animal skin. You know what, he's really domineering..."

Jiang Yun's gray uniform, which was already almost burnt to shreds during his fight with Fang Ruolin, was supposed to be replaced at the Steward Pavilion. However, he didn't even think about it; wearing animal skins felt more comfortable for him.

With ease, Jiang Yun didn't take much time to arrive at the red boundary line within the Trapped Beast Forest. Without hesitation, he took a step across it, once again entering this forbidden place.

This time, Ginger Cloud's purpose was to find materials for refining the Qi-Invigorating Pill. Therefore, he didn't actively bleed himself like last time to attract ferocious beasts. However, if he encountered ferocious beasts along the way, he wouldn't let them go. He walked and searched, gradually entering the depths of the Beast Trap Forest.

...And behind Jiang Yun, a團 of black mist appeared quietly at some point. Naturally, there was Lao Hei's ominous voice within the mist: "This beast skin kid came again Although I sold you my favor to your big brother, you can't treat this place as your home, coming and going as you please! Besides, what is he looking for Oh, could it be..."

"Ahem!"

Hearing the cough, Jiang Yun immediately turned around. When he saw Lao Hei standing behind him, his face lit up and he said, "Big Brother Lao Hei, why are you still here"

Lao Hei didn't answer the question, but instead pointed at the few weeds Ginger Cloud was holding in her hand and said, "What do you want these weeds for"

"Brewing medicine."

"Can you refine medicine" Lao Hei's eyes widened suddenly to their limit, and a look of astonishment appeared on his withered, tree bark-like face: "Are you an alchemist What grade of pills can you refine"

Facing Lao Hei's series of questions, Jiang Yun replied one by one: "I can make medicine, but I'm not yet a pharmacist. As for how many grades of pills I can refine, I can't say for sure because I've only refined a few types."

Lao Hei hurriedly said, "What kinds of pills have you refined Tell me about them!"

There were pills like "Tianjing Dan," "Yue Meng Lu," "Zi Luo San," and "Bi Du Dan," as well as some other pills whose names I didn't know.

Every time Gingercloud uttered the name of a pill, Lao Hei’s mouth would gape wider. By the time Gingercloud finished speaking, Lao Hei’s mouth was wide open and couldn’t be closed any further; even his saliva was about to spill out.

And in his heart, he was almost screaming: "My god, these pills are incredibly suitable for our demon race! I understand now! This kid must be the one who cultivated them, a pharmacist specially trained to make medicine for our demon race!"

Lao Hei came to his senses and hurriedly swallowed his saliva. He squeezed out a smile and said, "Little brother, you're too humble. Just based on these pills you've refined, you're already capable of being a demon tamer. Besides, you're so young. If this got spread around, it would definitely shake the world!"

Lao He's words weren't really flattering Jiang Yun, but facts.

In this world, countless races flourish. When it comes to powerhouses, there are plenty to be found. However, certain specialized professions are truly rare, such as alchemists, blacksmiths, and formation masters.

Because of these professions, setting aside talent aside, the first thing is that a lot of time needs to be spent, and secondly, it requires one's own effort and perseverance.

Take Ginger Cloud as an example, he spent nearly sixteen years just familiarizing himself with the characteristics of various plants and animals. He ventured deep into Mangshan countless times. The tedium and boredom, even the constant threat to his life, are things that very few people could endure!

As for cultivators, they cultivate the Dao. The vast majority of them do so in pursuit of powerful strength and a long lifespan. They would never waste their time on such matters.

Besides, even if it were possible, it doesn't necessarily mean that one could become an alchemist.

Because becoming an alchemist also requires something very important — wealth!

Alchemical concoctions, while they may sound straightforward, requiring only materials to be combined, often involve ingredients that are not readily available or easily obtained.

Especially when it comes to refining high-grade pills, the materials required are even more rare and often priceless.

Moreover, alchemy isn't always successful. If it fails, all the materials are wasted. And most alchemists, even including Jiang Yun, need to go through many failures before successfully refining a new type of pill, which means consuming a lot of materials.

Jiang Yun was in Mangshan, a natural treasure trove that provided him with ample materials. He never lacked materials, but for others, these materials had to be purchased if they weren't collected themselves.

Years of accumulation, the cost of purchasing materials alone is astronomical, far beyond what an ordinary person could afford.

Therefore, even within large sects, alchemists are highly valued and rare. Take the vast Wudao Sect as an example; there is only one alchemist there.

Of course, all of these things also created the noble status of special professions like alchemists.

Any alchemist, in any region, and even among any race, will be treated with the utmost respect and privilege.

It goes without saying that Lao Hei was shocked when he learned that Ginger Cloud, at such a young age, could actually refine so many pills.

Jiang Yun didn't think he was anything special. After all, he was inexperienced in the ways of the world. Although he had taken a look at some books on alchemy after entering the Wenda Sect, that was all. He spent most of his time cultivating.

At this moment, Lao Hei looked at Jiang Yun with a newfound eagerness in his eyes and said, "Little brother, what kind of elixir are you preparing to refine What materials do you need"

"I want to refine Qi-Invigorating Pills. As for the materials, I'm not too sure, but based on the aroma and taste of the Qi-Invigorating Pills, I speculate that the three ingredients are Thousand Layers Flower, Hibiscus Ball, and Dust Cleansing Grass."

Jiang Yun's words caused Lao He's lips, which had finally closed, to open wide again.

Without a formula, merely by smelling and tasting, he could discern the ingredients of elixirs. Such skill was unheard of, even high-level alchemists might not be able to achieve it.

Swallowing hard, Lao Hei kept muttering to himself, "Stay calm, stay calm. Maybe this kid is just talking nonsense. Lao Hei, Lao Hei, you're a veteran, don't be fooled by the words of a human boy! No, I have to test him!"

Thinking of this, Lao Hei suddenly opened his palm. In the center of his palm appeared a bright blue pill and he said, "Little brother, can you tell what materials were used to make this pill"beaded with cold sweat.Because Gu San described the circumstances of this funeral flower, it was almost exactly the same as what I experienced.Isn't that the same as receiving all of your master's pow...
