I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 553: Serene Small World (2)

“Of course, the medicinal herbs planted in this tranquil minor world nominally belong to our Jumang Daoist Academy. But, if we want to refine a batch of rank-3 or above elixirs, we first need to submit an alchemy application to the Drug Bureau, along with a list of required herbs.”

“Once the Drug Bureau approves and stamps our application, we can then pick the medicinal herbs according to the list provided in their reply.”

“Normally, we report a slightly higher number of herbs than needed in our application. If you have connections, they’ll simply approve without checking. However, the applications from herb shops and non-academy alchemists would undergo a more meticulous review, and they make sure to eliminate any potential ‘padding’ in the listed herbs.”

“So, as long as our alchemy process succeeds, we can always refine a few surplus herbs per furnace batch. Over time, these surpluses accumulate, and some elixirs that are not on the record can enter circulation.”

As the chief of the Jumang Daoist Academy and a rank-3 Spirit Plant Master, Zong Zi frequently visits this tranquil minor world to improve his spirit plant technique, making him very familiar with the ins and outs here.”

Of course, if it were someone else today, he certainly wouldn’t say these things.

But Chen Mobai is the chief of the Dance Tool Dao Academy. Like him, he is an orthodox lineage of the academies, and with his talent, he might even steer a sect in the future, so Zong Zi provided a more detailed explanation.”

“I see, thank you for the explanation, Chief Zong.”

Chen Mobai enlightened after listening.

Indeed, even within the immortal sects, not everything can be perfectly controlled.

But that’s normal. If there wasn’t some wiggle room, this world would probably have perished a long time ago.

“There is one more thing, when we sow new medicinal herbs, although the Drug Bureau will send someone to count the quantity on the spot, after we finish registering and completing all formalities, we can sow more. They generally turn a blind eye.”

Zong Zi revealed another fine detail, pointing to the Jade Marrow Golden Mushrooms, indicating that only 95% of the quantity here is officially registered with the Drug Bureau.”

So this implies that they can control and use the excess 5% that matures freely.

“However, you shouldn’t be too outrageous. The Drug Bureau checks the types and quantities of medicinal herbs grown in each major medicinal field from time to time. If the discrepancy is too big, even our stronghold amongst the four great academies can’t cover it. After all, each medicinal herb requires spiritual energy and other resources to be cultivated, and all these belong to the immortal sect.”

Everyone ensures a certain manoeuvring space within a certain range without crossing the red line.

Chen Mobai remembered a saying from his grandfather when he was a child. He understood it only superficially then, but now, combining it with the real case of this tranquil minor world, he finally understood.

So, could this unwritten rule be used in the talisman industry?

Chen Mobai thought about the abundant resources in the Divine Tree Secret Realm and Tianhe Realm. If he could open up relevant channels, could he slowly convert the resources from different worlds into legal and regulated products on this side of the immortal sect?

Just as he was pondering over this, Zong Zi introduced him to the various facilities in the tranquil minor world’s herbal field.

“This is a constant temperature and humidity herbal field, and it is planted with some herbs that are very sensitive to sudden environmental changes and spiritual energy, such as this Jade Dew Grass…”

“This one changes with the seasons, and the spirit plants here don’t require much care, as long as they are regularly watered with Spirit Rain to ensure there are no pests.”

“Because the tranquil minor world is situated above the Ten Thousand Water Lake Spirit Vein, it ranks second only to the cloud-dominated minor world of the Immortal Sect in terms of the variety of medicinal herbs planted among the six major medicinal fields.”

Chen Mobai listened and nodded, these were the most critical things in the alchemy industry of the immortal sect.

If he weren’t the chief of the Dance Tool Dao Academy, Zong Zi certainly wouldn’t tell him these things and probably wouldn’t bring him to this tranquil minor world to get Enlightenment Tea, but would just ask him to wait outside.

“Chief Zong, if I were to open a pharmacy, could I possibly get stock from your Sky Blue Drug Factory?”

Chen Mobai thought about how he could use the alchemists from this side of the immortal sect to legitimize the herbs from the Tianhe Realm, and opening a pharmacy would be the best way to do it.

And one of the first things a pharmacy in the immortal sect needs to obtain before registering with the relevant departments is the drug factory’s supply certificate.

Although he has the backing of the Dance Tool Dao Academy, who would refuse to have more support?

“I can’t make that decision, generally, a drug factory can supply many pharmacies, but a pharmacy is only allowed to list one drug factory.”

Zong Zi shook his head. Although he was the chief of the current Jumang Daoist Academy, the Sky Blue Drug Factory was one of the lifelines of the academy, and he, with his shallow seniority, still couldn’t speak on such matters.

His last sentence revealed something.

It’s probably not possible.

Chen Mobai was just asking, after all, the pharmacy idea was still a concept.

In the months leading up to Core Formation, he would first work to grow and strengthen his talisman factory, then venture into alchemy and artifact refining sectors, striving to become a major trader between the two realms.

“We’re here.”

By this time, they had already reached the center of the tranquil minor world.

It was a terraced field.

There were already five or six people on top of the terraces, each standing by various magic artifacts, seemingly refining elixirs.
