Chapter 19: Alchemy Hall
Ming Yue wore her veil again, and they left Misty Pavilion.
Although Ming Yue had told him that they would reach Mountain Sword Sect the moment they left this mortal kingdom, he still didn't know how long they had to travel. He followed Ming Yue, and they arrived outside a big building.
It was quite crowded here, and every person present here was a cultivator. It looked like there were some areas in this city where mortals were not allowed to roam around.
Jiang Hao read the name of this building. It was Alchemy Hall.
He knew about Alchemy from the notes. Alchemy is a way of creating pills and elixirs from spirit herbs or some special parts of spirit beasts.
The value of an alchemist in the cultivation world is much higher than that of an ordinary cultivator of the same realm.
There were other professions like Talisman Maker, Weapon Refiner, and Array Master. They were all equally valuable in the cultivation world but alchemists were still valued more than them.
Everyone wants to increase their cultivation realm as quickly as possible. This was even more true for those cultivators who were ordinary and could only rely on pills to advance.
This was even truer in lower worlds, where the density of Qi was much lower compared to upper worlds. Even geniuses sometimes had to take pills to advance.
So, alchemists were highly famous in the cultivation world. Cultivators always tried to curry favors from them, as pills were very expensive and not many had the money to buy them.
Jiang Hao didn't know why they had come here instead of leaving the city, but he would find out soon, so he didn't ask about it.
