The three or five old men in blue robes standing next to Lord Takashima looked quite embarrassed. They were the alchemists whom Lord Takashima called "alchemists who consider themselves to be brilliant."
"It's true. For commonly used elixirs from the fourth to sixth levels of the intermediate level, the elixir yield rate for juniors is between 80% and 90%." Yuwen Zhouyuan said honestly, and he did not need to hide this.
Because in the mainland, some alchemists with extremely high alchemy talents can also achieve such a high rate of elixir formation.
"Then I wonder how high the success rate of refining a high-level elixir, such as a seventh-level elixir, can be?" Island Master Gao suddenly asked.
"Seventh-level elixir?" Yuwen Zhouyuan paused and seemed to be thinking about it.
In the main hall, the two true master ancestors suddenly became nervous.
Along with other monks, like the old men in clear robes, they were all very nervous. This was the real key, the real reason why the two true master ancestors recruited Yuwen Zhouyuan to come to the Jade Palace.
Even if the two island owners are True Master monks, they care about spiritual elixirs just like ordinary monks, which is related to the progress of their cultivation.
After Yuwen Zhouyuan thought about it carefully, he continued: "The seventh-level elixir is a high-level elixir, and the difficulty of refining it is much higher than that of the mid-level elixir. However, the junior has occasionally helped the elders to refine it in the sect before.
High-level elixirs can produce at least 20 to 30% of the elixirs."
As soon as these words came out, there was a shock in the Jade Hall, and low-pitched exclamations were heard. The eyes of the monks looking at Yuwen Zhouyuan were suddenly different, it was a kind of incomparable envy, admiration, and even worship.
It is very difficult for an alchemist to grow up.
In the world of cultivating immortals, alchemists are usually divided into seven levels: alchemy boy, alchemy apprentice, alchemist, alchemist, alchemy master, alchemy master, and alchemy master.
An alchemy boy learns some introductory alchemy skills from his master. An alchemy apprentice can try to make alchemy on his own. Only after becoming an alchemist can he have a higher status and be respected by immortal cultivators.
During the period when I was an alchemy boy and an alchemy apprentice, I had been consuming precious elixirs, constantly making huge losses, and unable to make ends meet. It was not until I became an alchemist that I could barely support myself.
In the world of immortal cultivation, there has always been a widely circulated saying: A poor monk does not refine elixirs.
Small family monks and ordinary casual cultivators want to become an alchemist. That is purely a luxury. They use elixirs and spiritual stones as firewood. In the world of immortality, small families that have failed because they want to cultivate alchemists,
Countless.
Only those big families with considerable financial resources dare to train alchemists, and this is just an alchemist.
Alchemists can make alchemy with other monks and earn a small amount of money. However, the money is consumed by their daily practice, so they can be self-sufficient. The accumulated money is not much.
Only when you reach the level of an alchemist, with superb alchemy skills and many monks asking Tumen to refine alchemy, can you really earn a large amount of spiritual stones. This is when the alchemist finally reaps the rewards of his hard work and reaps a bumper harvest. As long as he is an alchemist
, basically there is no shortage of money.
However, if you want to become a higher-level alchemist, you must have the talent for alchemy, otherwise it is just a dream.
Currently on the Emerald Island, most of the monks who know how to make alchemy are only at the level of alchemy apprentices.
No one would take a second look at these ordinary alchemy apprentices. Giving them elixirs to make alchemy is a complete waste.
There are only a few monks on this island, who are alchemists.
The several old men in clear robes standing next to the two island owners are alchemists, and they are also the ones with the highest level of alchemy on the Emerald Island.
However, even if they were to refine a seventh-level elixir, the success rate would never exceed 10%, or even they would not be able to refine it at all.
However, the success rate of Yuwen Zhouyuan's seventh-level elixir can reach 20-30%, which is much higher.
Skilled alchemists are extremely popular everywhere. Although there are many alchemists passing through the Emerald Island, there are too few who are willing to stay here.
The two island owners were greatly refreshed. They looked at each other with ecstasy in their eyes. The appearance of Yuwen Zhouyuan meant that the same amount of high-level spiritual medicinal materials could produce nearly twice as many elixirs.
Medicinal materials are extremely precious.
"Okay!" Master Gao Dao slapped the seat with his fleshy palm and said ecstatically: "I didn't expect that an alchemy master would come to our Emerald Island. This is a great thing, you know, my Emerald Island
The elixirs have always been scarce. With an alchemy master like you, I don’t know how much high-quality rare elixirs can be saved. I came to you today for a very simple purpose. I hope you can work for my Great Emerald Island and become my
The chief alchemist of the Great Emerald Island. I will never treat a monk as skilled in alchemy as you."
The owner of Dream Island on the side suddenly became unhappy after hearing this. He frowned and said, "Brother Gao, what does this mean? Do you want to monopolize it? He has settled in my little Emerald Island and is considered a person of my Little Emerald Island."
"Haha, there is only one nephew of Master Yuwen. He will either go to the Big Emerald Island or the Little Emerald Island. How about we let him choose?" Island Master Gao was quite confident.
He and the owner of Dream Island have been fighting on the Emerald Islands for hundreds of years. Although there is no winner, they have always had the upper hand. He believes that Yuwen Zhouyuan is knowledgeable and should know who is strong and who is weak on the Emerald Islands.
If Yuwen Zhouyuan makes the wrong choice by mistake, it doesn't matter, he will just grab the person. He is not afraid of fighting with the master of Meng Island.
"Humph, what to choose! Let him make elixirs for you and me at the same time. That's okay. It also avoids hurting the harmony between the two families." The leader of Meng Island knew that his strength could not be compared to the leader of Gao Island, but he was not stupid either.
There is still a way to solve this matter.
The Lord of Meng Island did not wait for the permission of Lord Gao, and directly asked Yuwen Zhouyuan: "Fellow Yuwen, my Emerald Island and the Big Emerald Island both lack a chief alchemist. Are you willing to be the chief alchemist of the two islands?
?”
Yuwen Zhouyuan was stunned for a moment. The chief alchemist of the Emerald Island, the Lord of the High Island, wanted him to join the Emerald Island?
Yuwen Zhouyuan quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind. The pros and cons were clearly visible.
With the support of two island owners, his safety on the island can almost be said to be very guaranteed. The two island owners are both True Master monks, and they naturally use spiritual elixirs of level seven or above.
It is extremely difficult to refine such a high-level elixir, otherwise the two island owners would not be so ecstatic after knowing his level of alchemy.
One of the prices he had to pay was to refine seventh-level earth-level high-level elixirs for the two island owners, which restricted his freedom to a certain extent.
The owner of Mengxiao Island proposed that Yuwen Zhouyuan be the chief alchemist of both the Emerald Island and the Emerald Island.
The island owner Gao Da pondered for a moment, but did not object. The best way to solve this problem was this. Otherwise, it would only be a battle between two true master monks, but that would be too harmonious.
"Two ancestors, this kid is just talking nonsense. How could he refine a seventh-level elixir at such a young age?! No one has seen it with their own eyes, it's just hearsay. The two ancestors must not believe one-sided words.
You can easily appoint him as the chief alchemist of the Emerald Islands!" Standing next to the tall island owner, a haggard-looking old man in green robes and gray beard suddenly jumped out to object.
"Yes, what Mr. Zhang said is exactly what he said. This guy is a foreign monk and we don't even know his true origin. How can we trust him so easily?"
"Perhaps he just wants to eat and drink here. Island Master, we must not give our elixir to him, it will only be wasted."
Several other alchemists in green robes also hurriedly stood up to express their strong opposition.
The appearance of Yuwen Zhouyuan, the alchemy master, was a surprise to the entire Emerald Island monks.
But for a very small number of people on the island, it is a very bad thing, that is, the more than ten alchemists maintained by the two island owners.
They refine elixirs for the two island owners and other monks, and enjoy extremely high courtesy. If they are replaced by Yuwen Zhouyuan, the courtesy they enjoy will undoubtedly be greatly reduced. The greatest benefit will be taken away by Yuwen Zhouyuan.
The most anxious person in the hall at the moment is probably the former chief alchemist of the Great Emerald Island, that is, the old monk Zhang who jumped out first in blue robes and gray beard.
Last night, after he learned that an extremely skilled alchemist appeared on the island, he couldn't sleep all night and felt that something was wrong. Now the two island owners proposed that Yu Wen Zhouyuan should be appointed as the chief alchemist.
For him, it was a bolt from the blue and he couldn't accept it.
Island Master Gao narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "That's true. Mr. Zhang is right. I just heard from a few subordinates that your alchemy skills are very good. You yourself also said that your alchemy skills are good. But just saying
It’s useless, you have to refine a real elixir. Nephew Yuwen, what do you think?”
"The owner of the island knows what my alchemy skills are. As long as I refine a few furnaces of elixirs, everything will become clear. Why do I need to say so much?" Yuwen Zhouyuan said calmly.
"Okay! I will give you ten sixth-level spiritual medicinal materials and ten seventh-level spiritual medicinal materials. If your alchemy skills are really that good, you must be the chief alchemist of the Emerald Islands. If you are not as good as you,
You said it so cleverly, and you have wasted my ten precious seventh-level spiritual medicinal materials. I will definitely kill you to vent my hatred!" Master Gao Island patted the seat and made a decision. There was something hidden in his tone.
It's chilly.
"This is natural." Yuwen Zhouyuan felt a slight shiver in his heart, knowing that if he couldn't refine the elixir, the Lord of Gao Island would never show mercy.
"Island Master, you can't do it! Ten pieces of seventh-level spiritual medicinal materials are too precious. Even I may not be able to succeed once or twice. How can this kid make it!"
Mr. Zhang still wanted to dissuade him, but the two island owners didn't listen at all. They were looking forward to Yuwen Zhouyuan's alchemy skills. For the same elixir, they could get double the elixir. Such a high return was enough for them to hesitate.
Take the plunge and give it a try.
Big Emerald Island, the main peak, a certain top alchemy room, outside the alchemy room, surrounded by dozens of Zhenyuan monks wearing black and green clothes, guarding outside the alchemy room all night long, prohibiting any other monks from approaching this place.
The two island owners and the green-robed monks came to visit almost every few hours. After seven days, the alchemy room opened wide, and a scent of elixirs filled the nostrils.
