I have a magical tree

Wang Dayi was a little absent-minded. He didn't react for a while, just pinching his beard with his hands.

When Xu Dao said it for the second time, Wang Dayi nodded woodenly and took the pills to check.

"Twelve pills in one furnace, all of them are top-grade."

This success rate, this top-grade rate, is simply shocking.

He had never heard of anyone else being able to refine so many top-grade pills in one furnace.

Many people can refine top-grade pills after their medicine refining skills improve, but it is impossible for a furnace of pills to have such a uniform quality.

Many are only one or two top-grade pills, and the rest are medium-grade, low-grade, or even waste.

To make every pill top-grade, the refiner needs to have a very terrifying control. This is true for both flame temperature and medicinal fusion.

Others may need two or three furnaces to refine ten top-grade pills. If they are unlucky, they may even need four or five furnaces. But for Xu Dao, one furnace is enough.

"It's only been a year since we last met. Has Old Ge's medicine-making skills reached this point?" Doctor Wang looked at the pills and said after a long silence.

Xu Dao didn't know how to respond to this. Could it be that the teacher didn't have this skill, and it was my own effort?

The teacher really couldn't make a furnace full of top-grade pills.

It's okay for the first-grade pills, but not the second-grade ones.

There are only a few kinds of medicinal materials in the first grade, and the second grade has broken through ten kinds. The difficulty of refining is not as simple as addition.

So, Xu Dao, who didn't know how to answer, simply went to refine the second furnace of healing pills.

The difficulty of refining healing pills is even higher than that of the second-grade blood-strengthening pills. Because the number of medicinal materials has reached an astonishing nineteen, almost breaking two!

Generally, only twenty kinds of medicinal materials are used to refine third-grade pills.

But for Xu Dao, it is still not difficult. When he was in Yanghe County, he was already able to refine top-grade second-grade pills.

"No wonder your master said you are gifted..." Doctor Wang was a little jealous. If he were to train such a disciple... Forget it, he couldn't do the thing of snatching someone's apprentice, and what if he really snatched it? A genius like Xu Dao didn't like being restricted. Maybe he would make enemies because of it, which would be a loss.

"But the position of the eighth-rank doctor I got you before was a bit low."

Xu Dao shook his head hurriedly, "The eighth-rank is just right, it's not low. I have only been a ninth-rank for a few months. It's not good to be promoted too quickly!"

"Okay, then wait a little longer!" Doctor Wang nodded, "In the future, you can use medicinal materials at any time in the Shangyi Bureau, but you need to hand over half of the elixirs you get to the department, how about it?"

Xu Dao nodded, of course there was nothing wrong, it was very difficult to collect elixir materials, and the medicinal materials needed to refine elixirs were not ordinary medicinal materials. Many of them were spiritual medicines that could not be bought in the market outside.

Either it is monopolized by the imperial court, or by the vassal kings or the big families, and the price is extremely high.

Spiritual medicine, unless it is a secret place that has not been discovered, or a dangerous place that ordinary people cannot set foot in, otherwise, for thousands of years, the ones that should be collected have been collected long ago, and relying on wild spiritual medicine alone is far from meeting the needs of the cultivators in this world.

The number of cultivators in this world is a very exaggerated number. The number of spiritual medicines consumed each year is also an astronomical figure, so artificial cultivation of spiritual medicines is inevitable.

And not all places in the world are suitable for growing spiritual medicines, and not everyone knows the technology of growing spiritual medicines. It is not like an old farmer planting a field, digging a hole, and it can grow without lack of water and fertilizer.

That thing has high requirements for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and these places are either controlled by the imperial court, the hands of the cultivation sects, or the hands of the aristocratic families, but it is impossible to be in the hands of ordinary people.

Therefore, mastering the supply channel of spiritual medicine is to master the alchemist in disguise, and this principle is valid.

Take it as you like, and turn in half of the proceeds. The price is not low, but it is still very cost-effective. It is a win-win cooperation between the alchemists and the court.

"When your alchemist level is higher, this ratio will be further reduced. If you don't want to be a noble family, or a sect, the court is actually the most suitable for us." Doctor Wang was very happy to see Xu Dao agree.

In fact, he didn't say another sentence. Now the court's control over the world is not as good as that of the Taizu period, and the restrictions on officials are actually very relaxed. At this time, why don't you come in to eat public food and go to those sects and noble families? You are sick in the brain!

"I save it, thank you for your advice, Mr. Wang!" Xu Dao is not stupid. He is eating well with official food now. He would leave this system if he was stupid.

"Go pick an alchemy room. You will use it in the future!" Old Wang took Xu Dao out of the alchemy room and pointed to the alchemy rooms next to it. "There are three empty ones left. You can choose whichever one you like! The same will happen when your master comes!"

"That is to say, there are seven alchemists in the Shangyi Bureau, not counting me?" Xu Dao was really surprised this time.

How could a small Shangyi Bureau in a prefecture city have so many alchemists? You should know that Yanghe County has alchemists only because of Old Ge. Other counties don't have them, let alone alchemists, and even alchemy rooms.

The alchemy room in Yanghe County was built by Yan Chengyun and built specifically for Old Ge. It can be regarded as a courtesy.

So, this guy is not useless.

"There are indeed seven of them, two of whom are my useless disciples. One has been a disciple for twenty years and can now refine third-grade pills, and the other has been a disciple for only one year and can barely refine first-grade pills. They are far inferior to you!"

Xu Dao felt that this old man was really amazing. Not only was he a mid-level alchemist, he also trained two low-level alchemists, and it sounded like he had quite good talent.

After all, not everyone is like Xu Dao, who can do it right away and understand it at a glance. In addition, his soul is naturally strong, and he has also practiced Qi Refining. If he is still as slow as a turtle, then he can only be said to be too dull and not suitable for making medicine.

"Are these rooms the same?"

"Of course they are the same, even the ones I use are the same. I let you choose, just to let you choose the one you like, that's all." Doctor Wang was very patient, or he was always very patient with peerless geniuses.

When Xu Dao heard this, he immediately knew that there was really nothing special about it, so he just chose it casually, so he was too lazy to choose, and chose a nice-sounding name - Canxia Palace.

The name of this temple is taken from: abstaining from food, eating clouds and drinking dew, reflecting the natural balance...

It is also said that in ancient times, strange people did not eat the five grains of the world, appeared in the sacred mountain every day, ate the morning clouds when hungry, and drank dew when thirsty. People who are close to the mountains are called immortals. Immortals are those who eat air and live forever!

The meaning is very good. At the same time, the art of refining medicine is indeed inseparable from the practice of longevity!
