Honorable alchemists?
Hearing the two girls' words, the boy couldn't help but be curious. He asked in confusion, "Why? Is being an alchemist very honorable? Why do you want to be an alchemist so much? "
In response to the boy's question, Yafu said, "Being an alchemist is of course extremely honorable and honorable!"
More than a hundred years ago, the four Supreme Emperors fell one after another. Under the pressure of the Demon Race's army, they bypassed the northern provinces that were originally guarded by the Supreme Emperor of Thick Earth and attacked Green Wood City. In the battle, Green Wood City was slaughtered, and not even a chicken or dog was spared!
Among the five major provinces of the Human Race, the eastern provinces were the first to fall and became the territory of the Demon Race. All the alchemists in the eastern provinces, as well as the entire inheritance of alchemists, were completely wiped out by the Demon Race.
With the fall of the Lingmu Emperor and the eastern provinces, the inheritance of alchemists was completely cut off. Not many people could even refine the fifth-grade Yin and Yang Pill.
Today, the highest level alchemist in the Human Race's Alchemist Association was only a fifth-grade alchemist. He could barely refine the Yin and Yang Pill, but he didn't even dare to think about refining the Nirvana Pill.
The cruelest thing was not the lack of alchemists, but the complete inheritance of alchemists had been completely cut off.
Once the inheritance of alchemists was cut off, the Human Race could no longer train alchemists in batches, nor could they mass produce high-grade pills.
A hundred years ago, the highest level alchemist in the Human Race was the Lingmu Emperor. His alchemy skills had reached the upper ninth-grade. Legend had it that … he had once joined forces with several other Emperors to refine a pill that surpassed the ninth-grade — the Great Realm Breaking Pill!
The Great Realm Breaking Pill was a legendary pill that could elevate a Martial Emperor to an Emperor in a short period of time. Although it could only last for a short period of time, its uncanny workmanship was evident.
However, even now, it was difficult to find a sixth-grade or seventh-grade alchemist, let alone an upper ninth-grade alchemist.
Of course, in the various major forces and super clans, there were actually still level-six and level-seven alchemists. However, although they could refine level-six and level-seven pills … the production was too small. For the entire human race, it was completely negligible. Having it was equivalent to having none.
The most serious thing was that after losing their Alchemist inheritance, although they could refine high grade pills, they were unable to cultivate high grade Alchemists. Even if they were forced to cultivate them, the success rate was extremely low.
Faced with such a difficult situation, Dongfang Tianxiu admitted that he wasn't cut out for it. Thus, he took the blame and resigned from his position as the president of Aoki University. After everyone recommended him, Ye Ling filled the vacancy.
After taking over Aoki University and becoming the President of the Alchemist Association, Ye Ling had spent the last hundred years nurturing a large number of Alchemists for the Human Race.
After nearly a hundred years of hard work, Ye Ling had nurtured a large number of low to mid-level Alchemists. The Body Tempering Pill, Spirit Gathering Pill, Earth Spirit Pill, and Heaven Spirit Pill could be mass-produced and basically met the needs of the Human Race.
However, there were still very few level-five Alchemists who could refine the Yin Yang Pill. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
In order to encourage more young talents to enter the Alchemist profession, the Great Chu royalty adjusted its strategy and greatly increased the status of Alchemists.
Starting from level-five Alchemists, one could become a noble. Among them … level-five Alchemists were nobles, level-six Alchemists were viscounts, level-seven Alchemists were counts, level-eight Alchemists were marquises, and level-nine Alchemists were dukes. Their status was on par with the Seven Great Generals of the Human Race!
Therefore, to the entire Human Race, Alchemists were an extremely noble and honorable profession. Everyone wanted to become a noble and honorable Alchemist.
After listening to Yaxin and Yafu's introduction, the boy nodded. No wonder.
As the saying went, the rarer something was, the more valuable it was. In the past, when Alchemists were as numerous as the hairs on a cow, no one felt that Alchemists were that amazing.
However, now, even a level-six Alchemist was hard to find. Under the control of the Great Chu royalty, the rise in the status of Alchemists was inevitable.
Boom! Crack …
As they were conversing, a violent boom suddenly sounded from the entrance of the run-down temple. At the same time, two unbridled voices sounded from the entrance. "Where are the two girls? If you don't want to die, hand them over immediately! "
When they heard these two voices, Yaxin and Yaxin's faces instantly turned pale and their delicate bodies trembled.
It was obvious that these two male voices belonged to the two young ancient martial art practitioners from last night.
This was indeed the case. Last night … although these two people had been scared away, nothing had happened after a night. This made them feel strange.
If there really were ghosts in this world, then even if they ran to the ends of the earth, it would be useless.
After pondering for an entire night, the two of them finally understood. It was obvious that … they had been scared away by the two girls.
Although the wooden sculpture was indeed very strange, not only could it automatically repair the cracks on its body, but it had also strangely stood up. However, when they thought about it carefully, what was so special about it?
Many spirit trees could quickly repair their cracks after soaking in rainwater. This was not strange at all.
As for the wooden sculpture standing up, that was even easier to explain. A few array talismans or Dao inscriptions carved on the wooden sculpture could produce such a result.
Most importantly, they had clearly attacked the wooden sculpture, but they had not suffered any retribution. Furthermore, they remembered very clearly that the wooden sculpture had almost fallen apart when the two of them had attacked it with their full strength.
Last night, with the help of the rainstorm, the wooden sculpture could have recovered very quickly. However, now that the rain had stopped, without the nourishment of the rainwater, what could they use to repair the wooden sculpture if it cracked again?
After thinking about it, the two young ancient martial art practitioners could not resist the temptation of money and rushed over again.
As long as they caught the two beautiful girls and sold them to the brothel, they would definitely receive a large sum of money. It would be enough for them to live a carefree and carefree life for a few years.
Seeing the two fiends arrive again, with Brother Bao as the center, the five boys all cowered in a corner in fear.
Looking around, the two young men quickly recognized Brother Bao from the crowd.
They walked over to Brother Bao and kicked Brother Bao's thigh. They asked coldly, "Where are the two girls?"
Brother Bao swallowed his saliva nervously. Originally, he would not betray Yafu and Yaxin. However, last night, they had shamelessly dragged the boy back and stayed by his side the entire night.
Since that was the case, why should he think too highly of himself and risk his life to protect them?
Brother Bao gritted his teeth and said, "I can tell you where they are, but … after selling them, you have to give me some money!"
What? Give you some money?
Looking at Brother Bao in shock, the two young ancient martial art practitioners were stunned for a moment before they burst into laughter.
Amidst their laughter, one of the young ancient martial art practitioners picked Brother Bao up and laughed. "This rundown temple is only so big. With our strength, how can we not sense their location? The reason why we asked you was just to tease you and see how tough your bones are."
