Chapter 4845: Qing Danzi’s troubles
Translator: 549690339
After all, this was something that had to be accumulated bit by bit, and not just by relying on a few fortuitous encounters.
“Master, what do you think of this disciple’s spirit herb storage?” Qing Danzi showed Lin Yi around, his face full of pride.
“It’s not bad, it’s the best I’ve seen. ” Lin Yi nodded.
“Is that so?” Qing Danzi was surprised and happy-he thought that Lin Yi would have seen countless of super refiners with his level, but he didn’t know that Lin Yi had never seen anyone else’s storage aside from his own. It was no lie to say that his was the best.
Lin Yi smiled faintly, but didn’t expose him. In fact, Qing Danzi was proud of having such a huge storage room. It had almost all the necessary and rare herbs he could think of.
If he had to pick the bones from the eggs, he would only be lacking a few heavenly treasures like the Thunder mystical vine. However, these rare treasures could only be encountered but not sought. It was not something that could be obtained with the intention and required excellent luck.
“It took a long time, right?” Lin Yi asked with a smile.
“Three hundred years.” Qing Danzi looked at his hard work and turned to Lin Yi, “I’ve been collecting the spiritual herbs here in a specialized system since I was ten years old. I’ve been doing it all the way until today without any interruption. ”
“Ten years old?” Lin Yi blinked-most people his age would still be playing with mud, but this guy was already doing something of such high class.
“That’s right. Master, you don’t have to be surprised. I’m from a family of alchemists, and any family member with the slightest bit of talent will begin to undergo alchemy enlightenment from the age of ten. Identifying and accumulating spiritual herbs is the first lesson.” Qing Danzi explained.
“I see.” Lin Yi nodded, thinking that this was what it meant to win at the starting line.”Since that’s the case, your family should not be short of brilliant alchemists, right? is there still a need to specially acknowledge me as your master?”
“Master, you misunderstand. Although my family is an alchemy family, it has declined long before I was born. Not only was it no longer glorious, but it was also bullied. It was pure luck that I was able to hold on to the title of an alchemy family. Before this, it had always been in danger. It was only after I became a seventh-realm Alchemist that the situation changed slightly. At least, I am not forced to live in fear every day.” Qing Danzi said with a bitter smile.
“Every family has its own problems.” Lin Yi looked at Qing Danzi with sympathy.
“After this disciple became a seventh ranked Alchemist, although the situation has stabilized for the time being, the situation is still not optimistic. Because in order to maintain the reputation of an alchemy family, the family must have at least two seventh ranked alchemists. However, our Qing family only has this disciple. The other disciples do not even have a sixth ranked Alchemist, let alone a seventh ranked one.” Qing Danzi said bitterly.
“There’s such a thing? Then what about you?” Lin Yi asked.
“Because when I was a level Seven refiner, I was quite famous in the world of refiners-the other noble houses didn’t dare to make things too difficult for us, because they’d be in for a lot of trouble if I ever reached Mystic class level one! So, they made an exception and gave us two hundred years-as long as I became a Mystic class level one refiner within two hundred years, we’d be able to keep our title as a Noble House, or we’d be removed from the family. From then on, you’ll lose all the resources that belong to the alchemy family. ” Qing Danzi paused here and smiled bitterly,””From the time I became a seventh ranked Alchemist until now, it’s just about two hundred years. It won’t be long before the time limit is up.”
This was the real reason why he didn’t hesitate to give up his dignity and kneel in front of Lin Yi. Not making any progress for two hundred years wasn’t a big deal for a seventh level refiner. If it wasn’t for this, Qing Danzi could have continued to explore on his own.
However, the deadline was approaching. If he didn’t work hard to do something, the Qing family’s expulsion was a matter of course. Once he lost the various resources allocated by the alchemy family, it would be impossible for him to return to this rank.
“So you want me to be your master just to try for the first grade of the mystic rank?” Lin Yi looked at Qing Danzi strangely-this guy was really desperate, wasn’t he? he wasn’t the legendary Mystic class, but even if he was, he couldn’t get him into that class in such a short time …
“No, no, I’m not even the best of the seventh level alchemists-how could I dream of Mystic first level?” Qing Danzi shook his head and said.
“Then what are you doing?” Lin Yi asked curiously.
“The only thing this disciple can do now is to go one step further. Seventh grade alchemists are also divided into three, six, and nine grades. This disciple only wants to be the first grade, so that when those people come to remove their names, there will be some room for negotiation.” Qing Danzi smiled bitterly. There was something he didn’t say, and that was if he managed to get a Mystic class first level honorary elder, he could still keep his title as an Alchemist house. But he just forced Lin Yi to be his master, how could he force him to be an elder?
“Oh? Then what rank do you think you are among the seventh ranked alchemists?” Lin Yi asked, interested.
“I can barely be considered a second class.” Qing Danzi thought for a moment and explained,”with my current ability, I can almost concoct all seventh grade pills. I can often concoct high quality pills. But there is a very serious problem. I can’t guarantee success every time. As for the absolute success rate like you, master, it’s even more unimaginable.”
When he said success every time, he didn’t mean a 100% success rate, but that he could successfully form the core every time. For most alchemists, even if they could only make one pill out of ten sets of materials, it was already considered a success.
“Like this? Have you thought of a solution?” Lin Yi pinched his chin and asked. Because of the Shennong medicine cauldron, he’d always been able to produce a lot of pills. Even if it wasn’t good enough, he could still achieve a hundred percent success rate. He would only fail if the quality of the pill far exceeded his ability.
However, Lin Yi had never encountered a situation like what Qing Danzi was describing. He had the ability, so why did he still fail so often?
“This disciple has consulted many senior Alchemist for this, but they have all been unable to provide any guidance, many of them even have the same problem as this disciple.” Qing Danzi shook his head and said,””It’s impossible to solve this problem behind closed doors, so after thinking about it, I’ve decided to go to Nakajima to ask for advice from Zhang Liju, the God of alchemy. I don’t dare to dream of becoming his disciple, but as long as I can get a word or two of advice, it’s enough for me to benefit endlessly. ” (To be continued.) ”
