The Lord of the Laws of Heaven

Chapter 78 Stealing Alchemy Techniques

Not long after, Lin Yun and even Gu Ren arrived, and all the alchemists who had gathered also arrived one by one.

"Xiao Jun... I heard he refined the Fat-Condensing Pill and produced a finished product. And since he's so young, he must have blown up quite a few furnaces!" This is what most alchemists think, because alchemy is a process of trial and error from the beginning. It's no lie that the more medicine you refine, the more furnaces will blow up.

However, it is very difficult to make Xiao Jun's Caomu Qingding explode. The operation of Caomu Qingding is as easy as pie.

After listening to the thoughts of these alchemists, Xiao Jun stuffed a few demons into his heart.

"Fat-Condensing Pills, this thing contains huge benefits. I will first spread the word that this boy has the recipe, let those female practitioners put pressure on him, and then use my connections in the Alchemist Guild to see if I can obtain this recipe."

This is the voice of Gu Ren.

Xiao Jun couldn't stand it anymore. "You're an alchemist, but you're not concentrating on refining medicine. You're doing these sneaky things, worrying about petty gains every day. You have so many distracting thoughts. No wonder you can't become a first-grade alchemist even at this age."

Gu Ren can be said to be the oldest person here, almost thirty years old, but he is not even a first-class alchemist. It seems that it is not only a problem of talent, but also a problem of impurity in his heart.

Xiao Jun also merged most of the demons into Gu Ren's heart, giving him some spiritual tests. He had to make him understand the principles of treating others with sincerity and focusing on one's work.

"I heard that Brother Xiao has refined a finished pill again. With Brother Xiao's talent, he will be able to enter the alchemist examination soon! I must make friends with him." This was Lin Yun's voice.

This seemed frank. Xiao Jun nodded secretly in his heart and stuffed some invisible demons into Lin Yun's heart.

It can be said that the method of refining medicine is the value and life of the alchemists. Unfortunately, Xiao Jun is targeting their wealth and lives this time.

"Everyone is here. I have recently made a finished elixir." Xiao Jun announced with great pride.

"We heard about it, congratulations!"

"Brother Xiao, I'm afraid you're not far from becoming a true alchemist!"

Gu Ren nodded: "It seems that Brother Xiao's teacher taught well! Brother Xiao has a good teacher."

"That's not right. In addition to innate talent, alchemy also requires acquired talent and effort. Brother Xiao, in addition to having a good teacher, it also depends on himself." Lin Yun seemed very objective.

Unfortunately, Xiao Jun never had a so-called teacher, and he didn't even have the innate talent to be a pharmacist in this world. He relied entirely on his own efforts!

"This time, I've completed the refining of the finished elixir, taking me one step closer to becoming a formal alchemist." Xiao Jun mobilized his consciousness and simulated an extremely excited and proud expression, saying to the group, "I do have some insights into alchemy, and I'd like to take this opportunity to share them."

He was extremely calm in his heart, scanning the faces of these people and listening to their thoughts.

"Yes... As an alchemist, how could I not be interested in the secrets of alchemy?"

"This will arouse their desires and stir their thoughts, making it easier to steal the secrets in their hearts!"

Xiao Jun began to express some of his insights on alchemy, attracting the attention of the alchemists present.

"I study mathematical calculations and comprehend the principles of medicine and yin and yang..."

The demonic seal characters in his mind were constantly compiled to control the invisible demon.

"...This is the insight gained from refining the finished elixir!"

"...I must carefully recall my own alchemy techniques and the alchemy techniques my teacher taught me."

"...Incorporate this understanding into your own alchemy skills!"

"...Consider your own alchemy skills and let this realization be verified."

The Heavenly Demon Seal Script was constantly being compiled in his mind, and mysterious thoughts were constantly stirring up hints along the fluctuating minds of these alchemists.

These thoughts compiled by Xiao Jun emerged in the minds of the alchemists. They regarded these thoughts as their own thoughts and concentrated on recalling their own alchemy techniques.

"This is indeed a good insight, very useful. Quickly absorb it and study hard!"

Some invisible demons kept encouraging, and these alchemists also agreed with it deeply. They took these insights into their hearts and comprehended them deeply.

At this time, some invisible demons also went deeper into the heart, which made it easier for Xiao Jun to steal the thoughts in his heart.

The alchemy insights Xiao Jun shared were certainly true, and only true things could touch people's hearts. It was like casting bait when fishing.

Thoughts and ideas were stolen one after another and Xiao Jun began to study them. In his turbulent state, Xiao Jun also heard and saw another side of the alchemist.

"I see... A pharmacist is essentially a craftsman... and these people are called apprentices."

Even in the ancient times of the earth, the exploitation of apprentices by large craftsmen was extremely harsh and cruel. Apprentices were not only free servants, but also had a large amount of surplus value extracted by the craftsmen. They were simply another kind of slaves.

What's more, the alchemists in this world? The relationship between most alchemists and their apprentices is even more oppressive. They only teach a few simple alchemy techniques, and then they have to work day and night to create value for their teachers, and only occasionally have some free time.

They only refined some inferior medicines, such as hemostatic powder and healing powder. After a long time, they could receive further instruction from their teacher! Perhaps this was the lifestyle of most alchemists.

As for Lin Yun, his teacher was an exception. He treated Lin Yun very well and was generous in imparting knowledge to him. Therefore, Lin Yun was the first alchemist besides Xiao Jun who could reach the level of refining finished elixirs.

However, according to the voices stolen by Xiao Jun, exploitation also objectively exists, it's just that the exploitation is lighter.

People like Yao Lao and Xiao Yan are definitely a minority in the world of alchemists!

Generally, higher-level alchemists do not care about a little bit of profit. They take in disciples just to pass on their skills and treat them as their own children!
But how many high-ranking alchemists are there? Furthermore, becoming a disciple of a high-ranking alchemist is no easy feat; it requires numerous trials and tribulations. Talent, character, and so on are comprehensively tested. Such true disciples are truly no different from biological children, and they too face numerous trials and tribulations.

The inheritance of a large number of low-level alchemists requires apprentices to be slaves for more than ten years before they can learn a little more deeply. After being a grandson for several decades, they can have the possibility of obtaining some low-level inheritance.

With the help of the invisible demon, Xiao Jun collected a large amount of information and had a clear view of many things in the world of alchemists.

"It's very easy to steal these people's alchemy techniques and absorb them. I can only be considered a wild one."

'The wood-attributed soul-catalyzing medicinal materials, the quenching and blending of medicinal liquids, can be considered a method to learn. For me, it has opened up many obstacles in alchemy.'

"Next... I can enter a higher circle and steal their alchemy techniques."

Xiao Jun thought of Xue Mei and Lin Fei, who happened to be the apprentices of the president and vice-president of the Alchemist Guild. These two people were almost the alchemist's direct disciples.

He began to formulate some crude plans on how to steal the alchemy skills of people like Xue Mei and Lin Fei.

Then Xiao Jun looked at Gu Ren with a slight contempt in his heart. Gu Ren had the qualifications to refine medicine. When Dan Wang Gu He was still a fourth-grade alchemist, he asked for a prescription scroll.

The prescription scroll can only be refined by fourth-grade alchemists and above. It is a scroll written by the soul. When observing the prescription scroll, the changes of the alchemy soul and the catalysis of the medicinal properties are described in detail.

Having a prescription scroll is basically like having someone guide your soul step by step in refining the medicine. However, every time you read the prescription scroll, it becomes blurrier.

Gu Ren completely consumed the prescription scroll. Although the scroll only took a little effort to make and the alchemy skills contained in it were not of high quality, it prevented this person from even reaching the first level of alchemy skills!
Moreover, Gu Ren was just a distant relative of Gu He, and the blood relationship was almost negligible. After he asked for the scroll of prescription, he directly cut off all ties with him.

It's just that Gu Ren usually uses the name of Gu He's relative to cheat people and live a comfortable life. The Alchemist Guild turns a blind eye to it.

Xiao Jun kept mobilizing the invisible demon, stirring up Gu Ren's thoughts and desires, and constantly recalling and observing the fourth-grade prescription scroll.

"This piece of shit! He can't even remember the recipe scroll! He only has vague insights and ideas, and I have to deduce and fill them in!"
