Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 702: Chapter 289: The Greatest Wealth After Chaos! (Seeking Monthly Ticket)_1

At Danxia Peak, in the Pill Hall beneath the ground.

The usually bustling scene has come to a halt now.

Only one large pill room is bustling with activity.

The alchemist at work is not any Pill Refiner from Luo Tian Creed, but a stranger named Qi Yi, a First-Order Pill Refiner.

The latter hails from the Dan Yuan Sect!

At his side is a group of avid observers studying his refining process.

Lead by a curious Luo Chen.

Qu Lingjun, Mi Li, Ma Shoupu, and Qiu Yin are standing behind, focused intently.

A Late Stage Qi Refinement cultivator in a white robe stands next to Luo Chen with a respectful expression, explaining everything in detail.

”Amongst us, Qi Yi and I are the best at Pill Refinement Technique, especially Qi Yi who is highly favored by our master...Dan Yuanzi.”

”No worries, the death of a person is paramount, after all, he imparted skills onto us, it’s not necessary to avoid mentioning him.”

Luo Chen says, waving his hand.

Xu Jie’s face slightly relaxes, he continues, ”Brother Qi Yi is adept at refining two types of First Order Pills, one is the Fasting Elixir, and the other is our Dan Yuan Sect’s best-selling Origin Nourishing Pill.”

Luo Chen asks, ”Is it the orthodox First Order Fasting Elixir?”

”Yes, that’s correct, it’s not any sort of Fasting Pill, it is indeed the First Order Fasting Elixir.” Xu Jie nods.

Luo Chen strokes his chin, mulling over this while saying, ”Continue!”

Xu Jie gathers his thoughts, cautiously continues: ”In these two kinds of elixirs, Brother Qi Yi has a 10% and 40% success rate respectively.”

”Generally speaking, his most often refined pill is the Origin Nourishing Pill. In this aspect, he has received the true teachings from Master Dan Yuanzi.”

”Even occasionally, he refines a Medium Grade Origin Nourishing Pill!”

The 10% success rate of the Fasting Elixir doesn’t need to be discussed.

But a 40% success rate for the Origin Nourishing Pill does take Luo Chen by surprise.

According to his system, this success rate is approximately equivalent to the proficiency level of perfection.

The only thing lacking is the quality of the elixirs, which are not sufficiently high-grade to produce a Medium Grade Origin Nourishing Pill consistently.

”What about you?” Luo Chen asks.

Xu Jie instantly replies, ”I also excel at the Origin Nourishing Pill. However, because I started late, and due to limitations in talent, I can only refine Lower Grade Origin Nourishing Pills, with a success rate of around thirty percent.”

Thirty percent, huh?

Luo Chen inwardly nods, this wasn’t bad either.

This is nearly mastery, only lacking the experience of refining Medium Grade Pills.

”Have you ever calculated, how much profit you have contributed to the Dan Yuan Sect by refining elixirs?” Luo Chen asks.

Without hesitation, Xu Jie instantly replied, ”Yes, we did. From my example, in a month I could generate around 1500 Spirit Stones, approximately 18,000 in a year.”

”My brother is more formidable, generating around 30,000 per year.”

”Of course, these are only gross profits after deducting the cost of raw materials, we are not privy to matters regarding personnel expenses and other expenditures.”

On hearing this answer,

Luo Chen’s eyebrows couldn’t help but furrow.

So, the two of them together only make 48,000?

It looks like a lot!

But after deducting various personnel costs, how much will be left in a year?

”Can you tell me, what was your and your senior brother’s annual salary before?”

When asked about this, Xu Jie puffs up his chest a bit.

He arrogantly says: ”Because we are Pill Refiners, our salary is on par with the Elders of the Ninth Level Qi Refinement in our sect!”

”My annual salary is 2400, my senior brother gets more, a full 3000!”

Upon hearing this answer,

Before Luo Chen can voice his opinion, the four people behind him burst out laughing.

This laughter left Xu Jie slightly bewildered.

Luo Chen too shook his head with a soft laugh. ”It seems that friend Dan Yuanzi exploited you guys pretty severely!”

Xu Jie was taken aback for a moment.

He has spent most of his time refining pills and cultivating in the sect, seldom venturing out.

So he isn’t aware of the salary standards for proficient First Order Pill Refiners across various influential forces in the Outer World.

”Ling Jun, talk about your income!” Luo Chen said casually.

Qu Lingjun stood tall and proud, he said: ”In the Luo Tian Creed, the salary of a First Order Pill Refiner is at least 300 per month! That’s 3600 in a year!”

”In my case, I make 500 a month, 6000 a year!”

”Moreover, apart from Spirit Stones, there are also other benefits. They can learn techniques for free, have access to elixirs that can enhance Divine Soul Endowment, and occasionally receive personal guidance from my master!”

”Not only this, we don’t refine pills alone like you, we have Medicine Disciples and Fire Workers assisting.”

Xu Jie is left dumbstruck after listening.

He had previously observed the Pill Refinement Techniques of the four people in front of him.

To be honest, in his view, except Qu Lingjun who showed promise, the rest are not all that good!

If First-Order Pill Refiners were also divided into Ascendant, Medium, and Lower-grade,

His senior brother would certainly be Ascendant, and he would be of a Medium Grade, leaning towards Ascendant.

As for the four Pill Refiners from Luo Tian Creed, three of them are basically at the beginner Level of Lower Grade.

Only Qu Lingjun, perhaps, is of a Medium Grade level.

Of course, such categorization is overly simple and crude.

The value a Pill Refiner can contribute depends on whether the types of pills they can refine are of high value.

Nevertheless, even then,

He is still tremendously shocked!

The new recruits who had just entered the field of pill refining a few years ago, earn more Spirit Stones than him and his senior brother, who had been refining pills for decades!

This is utterly unreasonable!

And why is this so!

Suddenly, he recalls the evaluations of Luo Chen from the Outer World.

Not the recent ones about being relentless, holding grudges, and upholding promises,
