I Have A Cultivation World - Chapter 2221 - 1025: Eastern Wilderness Weapons Factory (Part 3)
Chapter 2221: Chapter 1025: Eastern Wilderness Weapons Factory (Part 3)
Chen Mobai instructed Jiang Zongheng, desiring to cultivate the Temporal Dragon-Sovereign Scripture. The stronger the spiritual nature of the Dragon Pulse, the better. Therefore, upon reaching Divinity Transformation, he plans to rapidly enhance this massive Dragon Pulse that flows across various regions starting from the Eastern Wilderness Plateau.
This is precisely why the Dragon Pulse cannot be weakened excessively.
“Disciple obeys.”
Jiang Zongheng respectfully stored the True Dragon Ding into his storage bag and bowed with reverence.
After dealing with the matter, Liu Wenbo, the eldest disciple, reported the situation of the Little South Mountain Shop.
Following reconciliation with Mount Wudi, Yi Yuan Dao Palace lifted all embargoes, leading to retaliatory consumption by cultivators from the East Land for products from the Five Elements Commerce Association and Little South Mountain Shop.
The products Chen Mobai brought back from Immortal Gate, whether they be for Artifact Refining, Talisman Making, or Elixirs, were a complete downgrade strike against the handicrafts of the East Land.
Now, whenever the Five Elements Commerce and the Little South Mountain Shop list items, they are snapped up rapidly.
Furthermore, the East Land now recognizes the distinction between the two.
The supermarket of the Five Elements Commerce sells low-rank consumer goods, inexpensive and high-quality; while the Little South Mountain Shop offers high-end products, embodying the philosophy that expensive items have their reasoning.
“Currently, the sect annually earns approximately 100 million Spirit Stones from the East Land, with a net profit of over 70 million after deducting costs, divided equally between the Five Elements Commerce and the Little South Mountain Shop…”
Liu Wenbo’s report caused Qing Nu’s eyes to brighten.
This profit nearly equals what the Five Elements Sect earns in a year from operations in the Eastern Wilderness.
It must be noted, this figure is the result of Chen Mobai’s restraint. If he were to conduct a large-scale indiscriminate sell-off, the market for Rank-1 and Rank-2 artifacts, talismans, elixirs, and formations in the East Land would be overwhelmed by industrialized products from the Immortal Gate.
Since the East Land is, after all, the territory of the Holy Land, Chen Mobai dares not go overboard, deliberately maintaining only a market share of around 100 million Spirit Stones.
Chen Mobai also instructed Yue Zutao to purchase raw materials from major forces in the East Land, and even had Liu Wenbo invest the Spirit Stones earned by the Little South Mountain Shop in the Seven Great Immortal Cities of the East Land each year.
The East Land Immortal City annually hosts various auctions, originally intended to stimulate the spending of Spirit Stones by Eastern cultivators, orchestrated behind the scenes by the Holy Land and major Nascent Soul forces.
Generally, they harvest Spirit Stones from cultivators in the Core Formation and Foundation Establishment realms, featuring primarily Rank-3 spiritual objects, occasionally including noteworthy Rank-4 spiritual medicine materials.
In recent years, these auctions have been invariably patronized by the wealthy Five Elements Sect.
For this reason, although major forces in the East Land covet the plentiful Spirit Stones earned by the Five Elements Sect, they haven’t lost their sanity.
After all, they have harvested even more Spirit Stones themselves.
If the items are satisfactory, the Five Elements Sect predominantly acquires them.
While reducing inventory, they also gain copious amounts of Spirit Stones.
However, some astute individuals in the East Land have realized that after distributing the Spirit Stones they earned, their disciples’ first shopping choice is the Commerce Association and shop of the Five Elements Sect.
While Spirit Stones continue to circulate within the East Land, their precious spiritual materials accumulated over a millennium constantly flow into the Eastern Wilderness.
This places immense pressure on Zhou Ye.
Because high-ranked spiritual materials purchased from the East Land transit through the large-scale transmission array of the East Barbarians to Northern Abyss City in the Eastern Wilderness.
The only opportunity for rogue cultivators to act was in Bright Mirror Immortal City.
Over the years, a few incidents of rogue cultivators causing trouble in Bright Mirror Immortal City indeed occurred.
Fortunately, the formidable Tian Gang Formation planned by Chen Mobai in the East Barbarians helped Zhou Ye withstand the rogue cultivators repeatedly, including twice when Nascent Soul cultivators themselves intervened, prompting Zhou Shengqing and Mo Douguang to assist in the East Barbarians and repel the rogue cultivators outside the city.
However, in recent years, such incidents have ceased. Following the thorough exploration of the ruins, the Ruins Six Cities and Bright Mirror Immortal City now form the Five-Rank Seven-Star Tian Gang Formation built by Chen Mobai.
Such a formation can even withstand a Divinity Transformation attack.
After a rogue cultivator from the Nascent Soul Realm perished in the formation, rogue cultivators outside Bright Mirror Immortal City vanished without a trace.
The high-ranked spiritual materials from the East Land are predominantly medicinal.
Thanks to this, Qing Nu can refine and restore many precious elixir recipes from Immortal Gate, including the Infant Binding Three Spirits Medicine.
“Well done.”
After Liu Wenbo completed his report, Chen Mobai nodded, offering a word of praise.
Lastly, it was Luo Yixuan’s turn. Having reached Core Formation early, time seemed to leave no trace upon her, maintaining her white, delicate skin and stunning beauty.
Upon Chen Mobai’s gaze settling on her, she respectfully stepped forward, offering a slight bow and beginning to speak: “Master, in Wandering Mountain, over the past decade, the frequency of secret realm fissures has increased. I attempted to use your puppets to enter; most lost control, yet a select few ventured deep inside and discovered the presence of Rank-5 level power…”
Among the four disciples, Luo Yixuan achieved Core Formation the earliest, even a year prior to Qing Nu, yet now Qing Nu has formed her Nascent Soul while Luo Yixuan remains only at the Core Formation Middle Stage Peak.
This highlights the disparity in talent.
The advantage offered by Heavenly Spiritual Roots over ordinary Spiritual Roots in cultivation techniques becomes increasingly apparent as progress continues.
However, Luo Yixuan is slow not only due to her Spiritual Root but also because she cultivates with two types of spiritual power.
“Mm, you have labored hard these years. Both you and Zongheng are merely a step away from the Core Formation Late Stage. If you truly feel the bottleneck is sturdy, you may use Purple Jade Porridge to help break through…”
