It was an earlier evaluation.
A kind-hearted man, always generous to others!
Looking at it now, he’s really generous!
"If I ever refine pills for the Luo Tian Creed in the future, considering the level of my skill, how much salary would I be able to earn every month?"
Thinking of the possibilities, Xu Jie was getting pretty excited.
Due to his limited cultivation resources, he had been stuck at the Seventh Level Qi Refinement Realm for many years.
If he had an extra couple of hundred spirit stones each month, perhaps he might finally achieve Qi Refinement Stage Finalization.
If he did achieve Finalization, it was rumored that Luo Chen... the head of the sect!
He was known not to create obstacles for others and was often willing to provide strong support to those Qi Refinement Finalization practitioners to aid their Foundation Establishment!
Dang!
Just as Xu Jie was caught up in his excitement, a faint sound came from the middle of the Pill Room.
The pill refinement was done!
Luo Chen casually dismissed the Sound Isolation Cover.
Throughout their earlier conversations, they had been totally insulated by his Grandmaster Level Sound Isolation Technique, and thus their chatter did not interfere with Qi Yi’s pill refinement.
Now that the pill refinement was over, in front of everyone, Qi Yi silently collected the elixirs.
Xu Jie leaned over and exclaimed with surprise:
"You got lucky! You’ve managed to produce thirteen Origin Nourishing Pills this time."
"Brother, your pill refinement technique seems to have improved."
Qi Yi managed a forced smile.
Carrying the few Origin Nourishing Pills, he nervously walked up to Luo Chen.
Luo Chen didn’t beat around the bush, casually took the pills from him, and began to examine them carefully.
Lower Grade Origin Nourishing Pill!
He had come across them in the past; their medical effect was far stronger than the Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pill, yet slightly weaker than Ascendant Grade Jade Marrow Pill.
Its price remained steady between ninety and a hundred spirit stones.
The price variation depended on the fact that it has always been slightly cheaper than the Origin Nourishing Pills sold in the Spirit Medicine Hall.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have any competitive edge.
However, this slight competitive edge disappeared the moment the Luo Tian Creed’s Jade Marrow Pill entered the Tianlan market.
Having examined the pills, Luo Chen nodded in approval.
"The fusion of medicinal materials is on point, controlling the temperature needs some work, and the purging of impurities is not up to par... However, in terms of handling the main component, you’ve applied quite an impressive technique. Did you utilize Nurturing Origin Hand?"
Hearing the evaluation, the usually quiet Qi Yi found his eyes growing wide.
These strengths and weaknesses were exactly what his master Dan Yuanzi mentioned last year.
However, you need to understand that his master had mastered the refinement of Origin Nourishing Pills and could consistently produce Medium Grade Origin Nourishing Pills and occasionally even Ascendant grade. He was a Grandmaster!
Here was Luo Chen, who simply observed him refining a pill once.
After taking a brief look at the freshly made pill,
he was able to give an evaluation like that.
Unable to contain himself, Qi Yi asked: "Senior, have you refined Origin Nourishing Pills before?"
"Never."
"Then how are you so knowledgeable?"
Luo Chen gave a slight smile, "Understand one and you understand all, it’s just a first order pill after all. I’ve never refined an Origin Nourishing Pill, but I’ve refined plenty of other first order pills."
Qi Yi suddenly understood.
If one has refined several types of first order pills, having this level of discerning ability seems to be quite reasonable, right?
He has no idea that in Luo Chen’s mind, those other first order pills, he was extremely proficient in refining.
He was the one who could easily refine top grade pill!
Moreover, he was even capable of optimizing and improving the Jade Marrow Pill formula, which was inherently flawed.
As for Luo Chen’s current pill refinement technique.
He was confident that he could get the hang of an unfamiliar first order pill formula without using any system achievement points.
It was just a mere Origin Nourishing Pill!
After Qi Yi had finished refining his pills,
It was Xu Jie’s turn next.
However, it seemed he was still immersed in his earlier fantasies and had not been able to focus sufficiently.
By the time he reached the final stage, he had failed.
Seeing the pale Xu Jie, with despair in his eyes, Luo Chen just grinned and shook his head.
"Having assessed the level of your skills, you can come out with me now!"
Luo Chen led the crowd from the Pill Room to the large hall of Qu Lingjun, the hallmaster.
The Ling Jun Hall!
Sitting at the top, Luo Chen fell into deep thought.
While he contemplated, the other six didn’t dare to breathe loudly.
This wasn’t just because of Luo Chen’s power, status, and reputation, but also because of his greater achievement in pill refinement, their field of expertise.
A Second Order Pill Refiner is not determined by cultivation level.
But whether or not one could stably refine second order pills.
They who currently found refining first order pills challenging, didn’t even dare to think how difficult refining second order pills might be.
Suddenly.
Luo Chen’s voice echoed in the Ling Jun Hall.
"From today onwards, Qi Yi and Xu Jie, you both are Pill Refiners of my Luo Tian Creed, affiliated under the Pill Hall, commanded and dispatched by Hall Master Qu Lingjun."
"Any objections?"
Xu Jie, who had been in shock after failing to refine a pill, was initially taken aback when he heard this arrangement, but then quickly became overjoyed.
"No objections, I will follow any arrangement decided by the creed leader!"
Seeing that Qi Yi hadn’t reacted on the side, he promptly tugged at Qi Yi’s sleeves.
"Brother! Why are you in a daze? Thank the leader quickly for sparing you!"
Qi Yi opened his mouth to speak but ended up only managing to say, "I will follow the arrangement."
Yes!
Sparing them!
The Dan Yuan Sect had already been destroyed, and the remaining lower order cultivators were either fleeing or dispersing.
Maybe there were some high-ranking insiders who gathered their remnants and troops in an attempt to rebuild the sect somewhere else.
But at least for the next hundred years, there is no possible way for them to take revenge on the Luo Tian Creed.
Hundred years?
By then, they would have long since turned into bones!
Now, Luo Chen didn’t kill them, and instead took them into his own sect, it’s already a blessing.
Luo Chen, looking at the two men, continued: "Being a Pill Refiner of my Luo Tian Creed naturally comes with different treatment."
