[It can allow mortals to grow pseudo-spiritual roots, but the success rate is very low. However, it doesn't matter, sir. I have the recipe to refine the Chaos Spiritual Root Fruit.]

"Really? If that's the case, then Grandmother and the others will also have a chance to embark on the path of cultivation!" Fang Ruotang looked out excitedly.

After realizing that she had bid on the Chaos Spirit Root Fruit, very few people followed suit, and she won the Chaos Spirit Root Fruit in just a few rounds.

"The Chaos Spiritual Root Fruit has a nice-sounding name, but it's not very useful for cultivation, nor is it very effective for mortals. If hundreds of people take it together, it can produce about one pseudo-spiritual root."

Lu Ling whispered a reminder, afraid that Fang Ruotang wouldn't understand.

Fang Ruotang shook her head and said happily, "It's okay, I have a pill formula that can definitely refine the Chaos Spirit Root Fruit."

After saying that, Fang Ruotang realized that she needed an alchemist.

The newly acquainted Su Mu is a disciple of Medicine King Valley, so he definitely won't leave his sect to come to their Tianyi Sect. They wonder if there are any lone alchemists they can pick up.

When Fang Ruotang shared this idea, Qin Bao'er and Lu Ling were both a little embarrassed.

"I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult. The more skilled alchemists have all been invited by the major families to serve as their retainers. It would be useless to invite those alchemists who have not yet reached the pinnacle of their skills."

“Our Qin family also has alchemists, elders, you can use them for now. We can take our time with the search for people.”

Qin Bao'er knew that Fang Ruotang had a newly established sect.

It has very little foundation and nothing to offer.

"Why don't I just give him more spirit stones to invite him to Tianyi Sect? Do you even know which alchemist is the most skilled?" Fang Ruotang said dismissively.

In her understanding, going to another sect or family as a guest advisor meant promising to be their external support in order to earn some extra money. If that was the case, then it didn't matter where you worked.

"It's not cheap to keep a guest elder. Elder Fang, have you not gone to collect your spirit stones for this month yet?"

"No, but how expensive is it if it's not cheap?"

"Can't I afford to raise him?" Fang Ruotang rummaged through the little mirror's magic bag.

Their relationship had long been so good that she could just reach out and take things directly. Xiao Jingzi never restricted her from using the things in his treasure bag; in his words, these things originally belonged to her.

Even he was included.

[Don't listen to their nonsense. We have so many ancient pill formulas. If we just take out one or two, countless alchemists would flock to us, begging to join our Tianyi Sect. A single ancient pill formula is enough to drive them crazy.]

“I have ancient pill formulas, many of which have been lost in the Cloud Deep Continent. What kind of alchemists do you think I can hire with these conditions?” After Fang Ruotang finished speaking, Qin Bao’er and Lu Ling looked as if they had been choked.

The Mirror of Rewind can travel through time and space. Not to mention the ancient secret formulas lost in the Cloud Deep Continent, it can also easily copy anything that exists on other continents but not on this continent.

To the Mirror of Rewind, these three thousand worlds, large and small, are merely different chapters in a book; he can simply turn to whichever chapter he wants to read.

"As far as I know, the Supreme Elder of Medicine King Valley is currently the strongest known alchemist, said to be an eighth-grade alchemy saint, but no one has seen him for many years." After Qin Bao'er finished speaking, she looked at Fang Ruotang thoughtfully for a while before continuing.

“If you take that pill formula out, he might come out of seclusion.”

Qin Bao'er thought of the prescription Fang Ruotang had given her father yesterday.

Although it has not been verified, the fact that Fang Ruotang was able to produce a celestial-grade pill to save her ancestor shows that her words are unlikely to be false.

"The Supreme Elder of Medicine King Valley, do you think there's any possibility that he could come to my sect? I could also make him a Supreme Elder, and the treatment would definitely not be worse than that of Medicine King Valley."

Qin Bao'er said with a hint of helplessness, "I'm afraid that's unlikely. People who can reach the position of Supreme Elder are likely to be one of the elders who founded the sect, in addition to having high cultivation levels."

"Oh, it's a pity we can't invite him. Besides him, are there any other capable people?" Fang Ruotang asked, and seeing that Qin Bao'er and Lu Ling were about to speak at the same time, she immediately chimed in.

"There's no need to mention the supreme elders of such sects; it's pointless to talk about them, since they're unlikely to come to my sect."

"But alchemists with high cultivation levels are never unknown. After all, alchemists are extremely important figures in any sect. They can refine pills to heal fellow disciples and also refine pills to improve their cultivation. They are treated like treasures wherever they go."

Qin Bao'er agreed with Lu Ling's words and said, "Moreover, the profession of alchemist sounds weak, as if they only know how to tinker with pills, but that's not true. They are all very strong. Although their physique is not as good as that of sword cultivators, in order to refine high-quality pills, not only must the alchemist's soul power be strong, but their cultivation level must also keep up. Otherwise, they cannot make pills. Therefore, alchemists who can refine high-quality pills almost all enjoy great fame."

"They have records at almost every major auction house. They will send the pills they refine to auction. After it's over, I'll ask the manager for the list to show you."

"Okay!" Fang Ruotang agreed, though she was a little disappointed.

Realizing that she had no chance of poaching a top talent like an alchemist, she realized she was unlikely to succeed.

Why didn't you let Gu Yanjin and the other six go to learn? You need to learn how to make use of waste! My lord.

Little Mirror: ...

Do they even realize you've called them trash?

[Hmph! They don't need to know such trivial matters, but sir, it's enough that you do! Let them learn. Forget about an eighth-grade Pill Saint, even a ninth-grade Pill Emperor, or perhaps even a tenth-grade Pill God (which doesn't exist in this world), they could learn it all for you. Besides, their true forms are flowers; who knows, if they're in a good mood, they might even refine themselves to entertain you!]

Fang Ruotang: ...

A divine performance to liven things up.

There's no need for that! After all, when I met them, they were already human. It's hard for me to treat them like rare spirits. Let's spare their lives!

Alright, you decide, sir!

Fang Ruotang: ...

Ever since she promised to protect him and let him follow her, this little mirror has really started to disregard Gu Yanjin and the other six, and he's starting to turn against her.

So, which of the six do you think is the best candidate to learn it?

[It's fine! They are essentially one entity, with no difference in aptitude. Anyone can learn quickly and well; it just depends on who you want to learn.]

Okay, I'll ask them.

Fang Ruotang immediately contacted Gu Yanjin and the others. After realizing that only four people responded, she belatedly realized that some things should be put on the agenda.

Our sect is short one alchemist. You six, discuss it and decide who should learn the skill.

【I studied! 】

The four people who could be contacted responded simultaneously.

Fang Ruotang was a little surprised.

Are you all so eager to learn?

Gu Yanjin and others: ...

The little mirror laughed out loud.

They're not actually studious; they just want to impress you and win your favor.

Oh... okay! You all can learn it!
