CHAPTER 423: CHAPTER 423: TRAINING ALCHEMISTS AND TALISMAN MASTERS

Cultivators didn’t get sick easily, so the regular modern medicine was of little use to them.

However, when it came to elixirs and other pills, it could be a game changer in every way possible.

That was why in the ancient era, professions such as alchemy were one of the rarest and most important among cultivators.

That was because many individuals couldn’t survive without the help of pills. Elixirs were a big part of the cultivation process as they helped in strengthening the body and purifying spiritual power.

Pills also helped to boost a large amount of spiritual energy whenever someone was stuck at a bottle neck and unable to advance regardless of how much they cultivated.

There was also healing both internal and external injuries as fighting was a big part of the lifestyle of cultivators.

It was not a big deal for a person to kill another without any reason. The law of the jungle applied where those with the strongest fist got to live and possibly take over the possessions of others through killing.

In such cases, death and injuries were normal and without powerful elixirs, many would not survive.

That was one of the reasons why alchemists were revered and treated even better than royalty.

An alchemist, even one of the lowest first grade would be treated like an honored guest.

Even though Chu Hao wasn’t aware of most of these facts, he had still understood a lot of things about the ancient way of running a sect from his little sister and grandfather.

In fact, Grandpa Chu even showed his support in more people joining different professions to help improve the security and stability of their base.

"It’s good that you can think like that. If there are others who show talent in alchemy or other professions such as talisman drawing, array formations, and even forging, then it would be better to train them as well."

Everyone understood that for the sect or base to be strong, fighters were not the only people needed.

There was a need for people to make medicine for the fighters, make weapons for them, provide external assistance such as fire talismans, explosion talismans, gravity talismans and many other things.

Chu Miao was already an alchemist of the first grade even though she hadn’t practiced since she came to the modern world.

Nevertheless, she remembered enough to be able to guide and instruct her brother.

Once he saw the practical process and read more of the alchemy books in the library, he could at the very least, become a second grade alchemist in the future.

Chu Miao could already draw some powerful talismans and it wouldn’t be difficult to train a couple more talisman masters.

She was also proficient in array formations, something that Ye Xuan had also picked up and become a master in as well.

Both of them were able to train others too and with the many ancient books in the library within the soul ring, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that their sect would become the most powerful organization of its sort in the entire world.

Chu Miao talked about training more people further with her grandfather and family.

"If we can have more people in these professions, even if the zombies keep evolving and becoming stronger by the day then we will still be able to fight." Butler Cheng commented with a proud expression.

He was happy that he could still stand by his friend and fight alongside him even when the world was ending.

Moreover, he was content seeing how the people he considered family continued to thrive.

He swore in his heart that he would cultivate harder so that he could protect this precious family.

"Sweetheart, when do you plan to take the people you have chosen into the space ring to cultivate?" Mother Chu asked when she felt that the topic had become somewhat heavy.

"As soon as possible. If it’s possible for them to cultivate for a week, that would be more than two months inside the Soul Ring and it could bring about significant improvements in their cultivation.

So, I plan to bring them in for a short time first, before letting them get used to their power through battles.

Since there are already stronger zombies, it wouldn’t be a problem to find opponents for them to train with." Chu Miao had everything thought out

She wanted to strengthen the sect both in power and combat abilities. Therefore, battles with strong zombies and mutated animals would become a part of their lives.

"Okay then, you guys go do what you want to do. Us old guys will cultivate for a few days before going out to stretch our muscles.

Bunny, sent us into the Soul Ring." Grandpa Chu heaved a sigh and said with emotion.

Young children such as his good granddaughter were forced to grow up too fast because of the apocalypse and it hurt his heart greatly.

Nevertheless, he was gratified that his grandchildren had not become some softies who only knew how to hide behind others and wait to be protected.

They had the spirit of the Chu family and were born soldiers who live and die on the battlefield.

"By the way, since you will bring those people in anyway, why don’t you bring that old geezer together with us this time?" Grandpa Chu asked after a short pause.

"You mean Grandpa Li?" Chu Hao asked before his sister could open her mouth.

"Yeah, I’ll go bring that old man here first before you can bring us in." The old man said while standing up and put his hands behind his back.

Butler Cheng, like the loyal butler he was followed behind quietly.

"My old friend, how long do you think we will be able to survive in this world? We suddenly have a longer life expectancy than normal and all we can do is kill zombies and find ways to survive.

What will we do if the apocalypse comes to an end?" Chu Miao and her family could hear Chu Cheng asking his Butler who was just behind him.
