Chapter 788 Level Assessment

doomed.All the cultivators at this time could no longer care about the Abyssal Winged Wolves chasing behind them, and did their best to escape.Several huge vines lashed down, and Lu Xia Tian hid with..."That, of course, is not the case. Dan Wang City has its own set of criteria for evaluating alchemists. If a senior alchemist wants to pass the Dan Wang City assessment, they only need to refine the corresponding elixir. For example, for Zhuji Dan, a junior alchemist usually refines five furnaces to produce one furnace, while an intermediate alchemist can produce three furnaces from five furnaces. There are also some other elixirs that intermediate alchemists can refine."

"If all five attempts fail, the senior needs to bear the compensation of spirit stones equivalent to the spirit beast. If the senior confirms the assessment for a mid-level alchemist, they can receive the certificate issued by the Dan Wang Dan sect. With this certificate, the senior can enjoy great privileges. Moreover, no matter which fairy city they go to, the senior's identity will be unquestionable. However, what the senior is going to do is the assessment for a mid-level alchemist. Even if one furnace is successfully refined, it is considered a failed assessment and still needs to be compensated at the price."

"If successful, seniors will not need to pay any spirit stones. However, the refined elixirs will belong to Dan Wang City. Seniors can live in Dan Wang City for free, and the spirit stones needed for their attendants to stay in Dan Wang City will also be greatly reduced. However, after a period of time, seniors will need to refine a certain number of elixirs for Dan Wang City."

The guards of Danwang City saw that Lu Xia Tian's tone was firm and did not dare to neglect him. They explained everything in detail to Lu Xia Tian.

"Take me to the testing location."

Lu Xia Tian didn't say much, but in his heart, he was greatly impressed by this system of Dan Wang City. This way, Dan Wang City wouldn't lose money no matter what they did. The risk of refining failure was borne by the alchemist himself, and if successful, it was equivalent to keeping an alchemist under their control.

Although the conditions were a bit strict, alchemists should still do their best. In fact, the rank certificate issued by Danwang City is a golden signboard. Many alchemists, even if they don't stay in Danwang City, will take out a certificate and go to other immortal cities, and they will still receive more preferential treatment.

“Please, go ahead!” the guard stepped aside and gestured with his hand.

"A mid-level alchemist, and still only at the later stages of the Golden Core stage. This young master wants to see how you disgrace yourself."

Zong Yue let out a cold snort. Alchemy is difficult, more difficult than reaching the heavens. Each level of improvement is extremely difficult. Take the Zhuji Dan as an example. Beginner alchemists can refine it, and mid-level ones can too, but the success rate of mid-level alchemists is two to three times higher. This shows the vast difference. Every kind of spirit material is hard to come by. Immortal sects naturally want to maximize their profits, so higher-level alchemists are more sought after.

Usually, alchemists spend a lot of effort on the path of alchemy, so much that their cultivation progress is delayed. They often have lower cultivation levels compared to their achievements in alchemy. For example, Lu Xia Tian, who reached the late stage of Jindan, was only an intermediate alchemist. This is not unheard of, but it's certainly a rare case. Zong Yue grew up in Dan Wang City and knew about a few such individuals, but never someone like this before.

As a junior alchemist, Zong Yue knew better than anyone how difficult it was to become an alchemist. It was far more challenging than cultivation. So when the black-faced youth claimed to be a mid-level alchemist, Zong Yue's first reaction was disbelief.

“He’s actually a alchemist, this will be interesting to watch. Miss Ruan, shall we go take a look I haven't seen such a person in ages.” Gu Tanjian had a smile on his face and suggested to the woman in blue beside him.

"With nothing to do, I might as well take a look." Ruan Bi lightly tapped her pointed chin.

Xiao Yun and Xiao Black Panther also followed nervously behind. Xiao Yun's knuckles were white as she gripped them, anxiously glancing at Xiao Black Panther.

Xiao Heibao gave the girl a confident look. In fact, he was also a little nervous inside. After all, a mid-level alchemist was more prestigious than an ordinary Jindan cultivator. For them, cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage, it was a rare sight. However, Xiao Heibao inexplicably had a sense of trust in Lu Xiaottian.

Entering Danwang City, they walked down two bustling streets filled with passing cultivators. Soon, the group arrived at a vast plaza paved with blue bricks. In the center of the plaza stood a palace-like building. Before the stone steps, there was a gigantic golden alchemy furnace. Above it, an ancient seal script "Dan" (meaning elixir) was imbued with divine charm, seemingly merging into endless creation. Beside this colossal furnace, a slovenly old man sat cross-legged, holding a wine gourd and continuously pouring liquid into his mouth, the aroma of alcohol permeating the air.

“Master, this senior has come to take the alchemists' assessment.” The guard said to the old man.

“Another disciple of the immortal family, such a grand spectacle. You’ve ruined the old man's mood for drinking.” The slovenly elder glared at Lu Xia Tian, “What level are you trying to assess”

“A mid-level alchemist.” Lu Xia Tian said, this slovenly old man's internal qi breath was only at the Golden Core mid-stage, and his magic power wasn't very pure. However, being called a master clearly made him an alchemist, just not sure of his exact level. As for the slovenly old man's complaints, Lu Xia Tian pretended not to hear them.

"Huh A mid-level alchemist An interesting fellow has come." The slovenly old man suddenly perked up. "What kind of elixir will you use to assess him"

Every alchemist specializes in different types of pills, and there are usually a few iconic pills associated with each level. The requirements for success rates also vary slightly. However, the most common ones are still the Zhuji Dan and Ningjin Dan.

"Just use the Foundation Establishment Pill," Lu Xiaodao said.

“Alright.” The slovenly old man threw a storage pouch to Lu Xia Tian. “There are five portions of medicinal materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill inside. Do you want to prepare some”

"You're going to refine medicine right here Could you provide a alchemy room" Lu Xia Tian asked in surprise.

"Nature is open to all, otherwise, what credibility would the Danwang City's evaluation have I believe with your fortitude, you wouldn't be disturbed by trivial matters. Of course, if someone intentionally disrupts the assessment, causing the refining of alchemy to fail, they naturally need to bear the loss." The slovenly old man said matter-of-factly.

Lu Xiaottian was speechless. Facing such an old man, there was probably no room for negotiation. If he wanted to prove himself, wouldn't using a stone of inscription be enough However, since the other party refused, he had no choice but to simply refine the Qi-Foundation Pill.

“Everyone, retreat thirty meters away.” The disheveled old man reached out and shot a green stone. The stone bloomed with a barrier, enveloping Lu Xia Tian within it. It was just an ordinary soundproof barrier; sounds from the outside couldn't get in, but sounds from inside could go out.

Lu Xia tian took out the various spiritual herbs provided by the slovenly old man. Inside were five portions of Zhuk Ji Dan. However, although the ginseng and other spiritual herbs had the same growth year, even with the same year, the actual medicinal power of each herb was somewhat different. It is necessary to make an advance judgment on the spiritual power contained in each herb before refining the pill so that the fire can be adjusted during the refining process.

Alchemists usually bring their own bamboo charcoal for refining, as the fire intensity of each type of bamboo charcoal varies. Some alchemists are accustomed to using certain types of bamboo charcoal, and bringing their own allows for a higher success rate in refining pills.shment at the sight of Lu Xiaoteng, a dragon clan member. It was no surprise that several heavenly courts sent people to investigate this spatial anomaly. However, individuals like Ming Luo and Yu Xua...
