In the mall, Lu Ping spent fifty-five reputation points to exchange [Moon Bud Grass] and [Moon Bud Grass Formula].

The sect needs Yue Ya Dan, and the elixir resources that should be given to the disciples cannot be cut off. This needs to be started as soon as possible, and the moon bud grass also needs to mature.

"I have some moon bud grass seeds here, which can be planted in the medicine garden to gain some income for the sect."

Lu Ping gave a brief introduction.

"In addition, there is an elixir recipe, which records the method of refining Yueya Dan. You can arrange for the sect's alchemist to learn it."

After saying this, he took out two items.

When Lu Zhiwei was hesitating whether to step forward or wait for his father to come out of the cave and hand over the seeds and pill recipe, he saw two phantoms appearing out of thin air in the open space outside the cave.

The virtual shadow condensed into a real thing in a few breaths.

Lu Zhiwei took a closer look and recognized that it was a small paper bag with a parchment recipe.

It seems that this is what my father was talking about.

Lu Zhiwei picked it up and looked at it twice.

She did not ask how these two things had magically appeared.

This transformation from fiction to reality is a bit similar to taking something from a storage bag. It is not a novelty, or it may be one of his father's many clever tricks.

If your father doesn't take the initiative to explain, then you shouldn't ask more questions.

Seeing that it was the moon bud grass seeds and the moon bud pill formula, Lu Zhiwei hesitated, her expression showing a bit of helplessness.

Fortunately, the seeds are just planted, and there are disciples in the medicine garden who can take care of them.

This elixir recipe is available, but the alchemist...

The helplessness on Lu Zhiwei's face was seen by Lu Ping, who couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

"Well……"

Lu Zhiwei sounded embarrassed.

"To be honest with my father, due to the scarcity of the medicine garden's production capacity in recent years and the large loss of disciples in the sect, there are no alchemists in the sect now."

"..."

After hearing this answer, Lu Ping didn't know what to say.

Moon Bud Pill is a first-level elixir that a first-level alchemist can refine alone.

Of course, the Qingshan Sect had this alchemy master back then. There were five at the first level, two at the second level, and one at the third level. The number was quite considerable.

But today is different from the past. With the decline of Qingshan Sect, now there is no one left.

In the final analysis, if a sect cannot provide various medicinal materials for alchemists to refine and study, no alchemist will be willing to stay.

In addition, there are no deep feelings within the sect, or blood as a cohesive force. The reason why sect members are still willing to serve the sect is nothing more than profit.

Obviously, the current Qingshan Sect is not profitable in the eyes of many people, and it is normal for people to look down upon it.

Very realistically, this is the outcome of poverty, which cannot keep people’s hearts.

"It doesn't matter."

Lu Ping sighed and felt helpless about this matter. This was because he had not thought carefully.

I was really happy when I saw the reward for the Moon Bud Pill formula before. After all, being able to produce self-produced elixirs is a good thing for the sect and has no disadvantages.

But he didn't consider that before exchanging it, he forgot to ask if there was an alchemist in the sect. He should have asked first.

The decline of Qingshan Sect is greater than expected.

However, it doesn't matter. Alchemists still need to be trained, and this link cannot be circumvented.

After thinking about this, Lu Ping said: "Plant the moon bud grass first. If there is no alchemist in the sect, then we will find a way to cultivate it."

"In terms of candidates for training, you can identify them as early as possible. This matter cannot be delayed."

It takes a year for the moon bud grass to mature and be harvested after planting.

Now that the sect does not have an alchemist, it will not be able to rely on alchemy to generate income for the sect in the short term.

To train a first-level alchemist, this process takes about a year, and it is also quite expensive.

This is quite uncomfortable.

To get an elixir recipe, not only do you need to wait until the moon bud grass matures before refining the elixir, but you also have to train an alchemist for the sect...

Of course, alchemists must be trained.

The sect must have its own alchemist and hire external alchemists to make alchemy. Lu Ping is not worried.

In the world of cultivating immortals, there are always some alchemists who do things to murder others in the process of alchemy for personal gain.

Just like more than five hundred years ago, the Alchemy Rebellion in Chu State caused a sensation.

The Alchemy Demon Rebellion involved several crystallization monks and dozens of Foundation Establishment monks. They were poisoned and controlled by the Alchemy Demon.

This will lead to the fact that for a long time in the future, major sects and families will not dare to easily hire outside alchemists to make alchemy.

In this matter, Tianshu Academy came forward in the end and signed an alchemy agreement with the alchemists of Lingxi Prefecture, which finally allowed the consequences of the Alchemy Rebellion to gradually subside.

Qingshan Sect's training of alchemists must be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

Fortunately, after Lu Ping reached the golden elixir stage, he had plenty of time and went deep into alchemy and weapon refining in his spare time, and learned a little about the various arts of immortality.

Although Lu Ping's attainments in alchemy were not high and he could only reach the level of a third-level high-grade alchemist, with his knowledge of alchemy, it would not be difficult to train an alchemist for the sect.

It just so happened that the system function of [Sound Transmission] was present, and he could move around at will without any restrictions. This could be said and seen, and there was also a way to guide his disciples in learning alchemy.

However, when it comes to demonstrating alchemy in person, he cannot personally participate in the battle. Who is to say that he is just a consciousness.

But the problem is not big. As long as a disciple is willing to learn, it is relatively easy to train the other person to the level of a second-level alchemist.

Lu Ping was satisfied to reach the second level.

Don't forget, he himself is only at the third level. There is no way to demonstrate alchemy, and the best we can do is train the disciples to the second-level alchemy master level. If the disciples want to go further and improve their alchemy skills in the future, they will have to rely on their own efforts.

In fact, while Lu Ping was thinking about this matter, Lu Zhiwei was also thinking about the alchemist.

Now that his father has awakened and wants to revitalize the sect, the sect's alchemist is definitely indispensable and needs to be trained as early as possible.

It was a good thing that she was a weapon refiner herself, otherwise in addition to training alchemists, the sect would also have to work hard to train weapon refiners.

Among the hundreds of arts of cultivating immortals, the cultivation of alchemists and weapon refiners is a money-burning industry. If these two are cultivated together, the sect will definitely be unable to bear it.

But now in the sect, fortunately, there is a candidate with the talent of alchemy, who is a good seedling to train, and his father also knows some alchemy methods, so there is no need to ask for help from outsiders.

With a candidate in mind, Lu Zhiwei took the initiative to mention it.

"Father, regarding the training of alchemists, Zhiwei can recommend a candidate now."

"Tell me."

"In the past few years, She Qingqing has been taking care of the medicine garden. She has a thorough grasp of the cultivation and identification of medicinal materials. Perhaps she can be trained as an alchemist."

"She Qingqing, which generation of disciples are you from?"

Lu Ping was very unfamiliar with this name. It sounded like a female disciple.

"She was recruited into the sect by my second brother six years ago. Her strength is around the second level of Qi training. Father, you have been in seclusion for a long time, so naturally you don't recognize her."

Apart from She Qingqing, there is really no one in the sect who is more suitable to develop into an alchemist than her.

And the only person who can reassure her is She Qingqing.

While Lu Zhiwei was introducing, Lu Ping found She Qingqing's character attributes among the sect members in the system.
