In the ultra-ancient civilization, alchemy is an extremely rare profession. He needs a complete inheritance, and at the same time needs a lot of resources to be able to support it. Generally, only big forces and sects can support alchemists.
Because even an alchemist who is a genius of the sky can't be able to quickly get started with alchemy just starting, and it is necessary to become proficient in the process of alchemy again and again, and become more and more powerful.
And every time alchemy, it is a big expense, including alchemy furnace, alchemy room, alchemy recipes, medicinal materials, and various secret techniques, which one does not cost countless money, it is not ordinary at all Power can support it.
In modern society, the same is true. Although medicinal materials can be cultivated on a large scale, even mass-produced, and the alchemy furnace can also be mass-produced with modern technology, but the number of alchemists is actually not as good as the alchemists in the memory of the alchemy emperor. quantity.
Because modern society does not have a complete inheritance of alchemy masters, in fact not only alchemy masters, but also the inheritance of martial arts is incomplete, because the ruins of super-ancient civilizations that humans have unearthed are still limited. The level of martial arts of the super-ancient civilization cannot be compared with the grand occasion of the emperors competing for hegemony in the super-ancient civilization in Chu Yunfan's mind.
However, the level of martial arts of human beings cannot be said to be useless. On the contrary, they are improving every moment, excavating new ruins every moment, and deciphering more information about super ancient civilizations.
Therefore, the top masters of human beings are also improving at an alarming rate. Often every few decades or hundreds of years, a new realm will be broken through by the top masters among human beings, and they will soon find a suitable breakthrough to this level. The cultivation method of the realm.
At the beginning of the Kunlun calendar, the sea of qi was a realm that only the masters in the army could achieve, but now the sea of air has been popularized to the level of the whole people, as long as you practice hard for decades, even if you are the least talented Yes, it can also break through to the Qi Sea Realm.
Compared with the excavation of the Martial Dao system, the alchemist system is much later. The data has only been systematically sorted out in the last two hundred years. Therefore, although the federal government strongly supports the research, its development level is still relatively low. Low, at least in the eyes of Chu Yunfan, who has the memory of the Pill Emperor, the level is still relatively low, and it is still far from the peak of the super ancient civilization.
Not to mention compared to the Heavenly Wizards on the Alchemy Dao like the Alchemy Emperor in Chu Yunfan's memory.
The Alchemist Association is an association in charge of many affairs of alchemists in the entire federation. It is a semi-official association. Although it is funded by the federal government, the president of the association is now known as the Alchemy King. The legendary first person among the alchemists, Du Qingtao.
Du Qingtao is a civil free person, not affiliated to the federal government, and Du Qingtao's level of alchemy is unparalleled among today's human beings. If any of the medicinal pills he refines are spread out, it will cause a lot of damage. Countless rich people are fighting for it.
The elixir he refined has helped many strong people, and because of this, many strong people owed him favors, and no one dared to offend him, otherwise, it would offend a large number of strong people behind him.
Not to mention that he is also a martial arts master himself, so although Du Qingtao is not the top master, he must have a place among the top ten influential figures in the federal government voted by the federal government every year.
The Alchemist Association led by him, even the federal government, must be afraid of three points and dare not intervene too much.
The alchemists who join it can often enjoy great benefits, including the support of various alchemy medicinal materials, and many ancient alchemy recipes are in the hands of the alchemist association. With its huge power, many alchemists flock to it.
Of course, not all alchemists will join the alchemist association, because there are many benefits, but there are also many constraints. Some alchemists start their own companies and make a lot of money, and some also work for the federal government. In major holy places, major group companies, etc.
However, no matter whether you choose to join the Alchemist Association or not, in order to obtain the qualification of an Alchemist, you must pass the assessment of the Alchemist Association.
Without passing the assessment of the Alchemist Association, he would not be able to borrow the alchemy furnace!
Of course, for private forces, the federal government, or big companies, even if they are not certified by the Alchemist Association, they can still have alchemy furnaces and enough medicinal materials to refine.
On the way back today, Chu Yunfan checked the information. According to the information given by the Alchemist Association, it can basically be divided into alchemy apprentices, apprentice alchemists, alchemists, and great alchemists. Among these levels , each of which is divided into primary, intermediate and advanced. In addition to these three stages, there is also the level of Pill King that only Du Qingtao has reached.
There are actually quite a few alchemist apprentices on the books, because the requirements for an alchemist apprentice are relatively simple, as long as you master the refining of a few simple medicinal pills, among which is the exercise pill.
Of course, although the alchemy recipe can be said to be very widely spread, the success rate of refining varies from one to another. For an alchemy king like Du Qingtao to refine a body training pill, the success rate is naturally 100%, but an alchemist The success rate of learning martial arts and refining the body training pill may be less than one tenth, so it can be said that the success rate is very low.
To promote an alchemist apprentice to become an apprentice alchemist, at least hundreds of times, hundreds of times of alchemy experience, and at least millions of alchemy experiences, and ordinary people simply cannot afford it.
Even if it is to reach one tenth of the success rate of an alchemist apprentice, it needs to go through many actual refining opportunities.
Taking Chu Yunfan and their thirteenth middle school as an example, there are only three or five students who have obtained the alchemy apprentice license.
Each of these three or five students has a wealthy family!
Like his best friend Gao Hongzhi, his family actually has enough financial resources to support him in alchemy, but his ambition is not there. Not everyone has the talent for alchemy, so it is not only a shoddy school like No. 13 Middle School, even JH City No. 1 Middle School. In fact, only a small number of people have obtained the license of alchemist apprentice, but the number is much more than the 13th middle school, and the quality is also higher.
All students who can get the alchemy apprentice license in high school are the treasures in various schools. Nowadays, every university has an alchemy department, which specializes in cultivating alchemy talents. Once they can graduate from the alchemy department. , Wherever they go, they are in-demand talents. The federal government, the military, the big groups, and the nine holy places all need such talents.
And these students who can get the alchemy apprentice license in high school can basically be recommended to enter the alchemy department of these general universities, even if they apply for the top ten famous schools, there are bonus points.
It is said that among the famous schools in Donghua City, there are also some students who have already obtained the license of trainee alchemists in high school. The federal government will pay attention to the special talents.
And alchemists are basically rich, or in other words, even if they were poor in the past, after becoming alchemists, they often get rich quickly. If ordinary people want to become alchemists, it is not impossible, but obviously and Compared with those from wealthy families, it is much more difficult.
Du Qingtao is one of the best. He came from a poor family. Later, he got the inheritance of a super-ancient civilization by chance. He embarked on this road and finally became the famous Dan Wang.
After he established the Alchemist Association, he promoted a lot of reforms in the alchemy world, giving many civilian alchemists the opportunity to climb up. Although the wealthy alchemists still occupy the mainstream, the number of civilian alchemists has gradually increased. The increase cannot be underestimated.
One of the most important is the launch of the virtual alchemy software on the current virtual network. By simulating various environments and situations of alchemy on the Internet, even civilians can learn basic alchemy things.
After all, it is only virtual, and it can’t improve faster than the practice in reality, but it is enough to see whether a person has talent. If you are very talented, even if you are very poor, you will have the attention of the Alchemist Association. You are really talented. If so, they may be taken away by the Alchemist Association for training, and even many large companies and groups will recruit such people.
Although these people are nothing now, these big forces are willing to provide them with enough resources to allow them to grow up, but the price is to sign employment contracts, and they will graduate in the future to serve these forces.
This is also the only day when ordinary people are likely to come forward!
Although this is obviously not fair, it is already the greatest fairness for civilians to have such an opportunity.
Because of this virtual alchemy software, the assessment of alchemist apprentices can also be carried out on the virtual network, instead of going to the alchemist association in person.
And if he wants to not be regulated in the future, he must at least become an alchemist apprentice. Those who do not have a license are all black households and are not protected by the federal government.
When it comes to the apprentice alchemist's assessment, it is necessary to go to the on-site assessment of the alchemist association, because the apprentice alchemist is already an official alchemist, not like an alchemist apprentice, in the end it's just an apprentice.
Chu Yunfan found out the virtual glasses that Kunlun used to connect to the virtual network in the era of the calendar. This thing is already a device for every person in modern society, just like the personal computer in the era of the Gregorian calendar.
Of course, this is an old-fashioned model ten years ago. It is said that the latest Internet terminal equipment can be implanted under the skin and enter the virtual network anytime, anywhere.
