Chapter 1005: All in the Palm of Your Hand
"This matter can only be resolved if the Sect Master speaks up. However, the Sect Master is such a powerful figure, how could he possibly care about such a trivial matter..."
After E Yun refused the benefit, he still did not forget his main purpose.
"Ugh!"
After hearing what he said, everyone started to sigh. There was no way they could get Chen Mobai to speak.
After waiting for a while, E Yun saw that everyone looked depressed, so he winked at the foundation-building ancestor of one of the immortal cultivation families, and the latter immediately understood what he meant.
"Is there really no other solution? Please, Master E, show me a way."
The person who spoke was Liu Jingxian, the ancestor of the Liu family. Because of the green smoke coming out of the ancestral tomb and the birth of Liu Wenbai, the eldest senior brother of Xiaonanshan, the family has developed smoothly over the years. Relying on the three treasures of foundation building, five new foundation building cultivators have emerged.
However, Liu Jingxian was old and was about to be buried, but with the help of Liu Wenbai's relationship, he bought many elixirs from Danxia Pavilion and improved his cultivation to the level of perfect foundation building, so he wanted to try to break through the elixir formation.
But Liu Wenbai had no way to deal with things like the elixir for forming elixirs, after all, there were not enough for the Five Elements Sect to use even for its own people.
This time, Chen Mobai released four pills, and even with the help of Liu Wenbo, Liu Jingxian was no match for others.
Finally, thinking that he only had a few years left to live and that his only regret in this life was that he wanted to try to form a golden elixir, Liu Jingxian once again turned to Liu Wenbo for help. The latter thought that the reason why he was able to become Chen Mobai's disciple was due to the support of his family. With gratitude, he thought of something that might serve as an opportunity, so he introduced Liu Jingxian to E Yun, the acting head.
As Chen Mobai's eldest disciple, Liu Wenbai knew a lot about his master. There was one thing that Chen Mobai had been worried about, but because it involved too many things, he planned to deal with it later. The follow-up of the auction of the Golden Liquid Jade Pill at the Beiyuan Conference made Liu Wenbai feel that this was a good opportunity.
That is to gather the spiritual veins in the Eastern Wilderness that do not belong to the Five Elements Sect.
Over the past few decades, with Chen Mobai's profound understanding of the spiritual world, all the spiritual veins in the Eastern Wilderness that had not yet been discovered and developed have been found and occupied by the Five Elements Sect.
These are all ownerless, but since they are in the territory of Eastern Wilderness, they belong to the Five Elements Sect.
Among them, there are seven fourth-level spirit veins, twenty-six third-level spirit veins, one hundred and forty-seven second-level spirit veins, six hundred and fifty-six first-level spirit veins, and thousands of spirit veins that are not of the highest grade but have weak spiritual energy.
After Chen Mobai located all of them, he inserted them into the formation plates and flags of the sky and earth networks one by one. For high-level spiritual veins, he went there in person, because at the core of these spiritual veins, there were natural treasures of corresponding grades. For low-level spiritual veins, he sent disciples from the Five Elements Sect's Spiritual Veins Division's Formation Division.
In the past, there were not so many elite cultivators in the Five Elements Sect, so most of the spiritual veins found by Chen Mobai were idle.
At that time, if the foundation-building cultivators had good connections and strong backgrounds, they could even obtain a third-level spiritual vein as their own temple. Not to mention the Jindan cultivators, there were even fourth-level spiritual veins to choose from.
Yin Qingmei's Liujia Mountain, Luo Yixiuan's Hanying Lake, and Jiang Zongheng's Loquat Valley are now almost being upgraded to fourth-grade superior spiritual veins under the supply of spiritual energy from the leader of the Tianmu Diluo Great Array.
But it is different now. Jindan cultivators can only choose third-level spirit veins at most. Some outer Jindan cultivators with ordinary backgrounds can even choose third-level inferior spirit veins.
Among them, the Five Elements Sect used to allocate fourth-order cave dwellings in Beiyuan City to Jindan cultivators, but now they have been uniformly downgraded. They can only choose third-order ones, and they are not allowed to choose houses in Beiyuan City.
However, compared to the Foundation Establishment cultivators, the Jindan cultivators at least have a house and a spiritual vein villa allocated to them by the sect.
Over the past few decades, after the three foundation-building treasures were launched on the market on a large scale, there was a huge explosion of foundation-building cultivators in the Five Elements Sect. As a result, for the newly promoted foundation-building cultivators, except for the second-level cave houses in remote suburban cities allocated by the sect, the remaining second-level spirit vein villa benefits were directly cancelled.
As a disciple of the Five Elements Sect, having a temple or a branch courtyard means two completely different lives.
Although these temples and branches are still nominally owned by the Five Elements Sect, the spiritual fields and medicinal plants developed therein, the spiritual beasts raised in captivity, etc. are all the responsibility of these disciples. If they are managed well, the profits they can share each year may even be higher than their basic benefits.
The most typical example is Han Zhiling.
As a foundation-building cultivator, she occupied the Tianpeng Mountain Villa with a fourth-level spiritual vein. Even if she could only get one percent of the profits every year, it would still be worth thousands of spirit stones.
Many Five Elements Sect cultivators were quite dissatisfied with this, and there were even some Jindan cultivators who could not get fourth-level spirit veins.
But every time there was a meeting of the Three Palaces and Twelve Departments, no one dared to mention this matter.
Because everyone knows Han Zhiling's identity and background. She is the only direct descendant of Zhuo Ming, the future Nascent Soul Master of the Five Elements Sect, and the third-generation eldest disciple of the Xiaonanshan lineage. Moreover, she is in the Tianpeng Mountain Villa, helping Chen Mobai to look after the ancient five-pointed maple tree.
Even the other Yuanyings of the Five Elements Sect would greet Han Zhiling warmly when they saw her.
By now, there are no idle spiritual veins in the Five Elements Sect's Eastern Wilderness territory, and the scope covered by the Sky Curtain and Earth Network Array has become unprecedentedly large.
But in the Eastern Wilderness, there are still some spiritual veins that are not under the control of the Five Elements Sect.
They are the local immortal cultivation families and sects.
If Chen Mobai wants to see the Nine Virtues, it is naturally not easy for him to use the simplest means, and he must also make these forces willingly give up the control of their spiritual veins.
He was quite troubled by this. After E Yun and Liu Wenbai learned about it, they combined the actual local situation and came up with this plan.
"The ten-year war between good and evil was extremely brutal. In order to prevent our Eastern Wasteland from being in a situation like the Eastern Wu in the future, the head of the sect has been working hard recently to set up a super formation that covers the entire Eastern Wasteland and mobilizes all the spirit veins.
"The spiritual veins under our sect have basically been arranged, but the spiritual veins occupied by the various families are still outside the range of the formation. If there is another war in the future, or even if the monsters in the ruins rush out, we may not be able to take care of them at that time. The families can only hope for the best."
"The Sect Master is a compassionate person. I think he probably doesn't want this to happen. I'll go and ask him to tell us that you are willing to offer your family's spiritual veins to us so that we can get into the formation. This way, not only will the East Wasteland Formation be able to be completely perfected and you will all be protected. We might even be able to make the Sect Master feel very happy and open up a channel for you to exchange for the Jindan Spiritual Medicine."
After E Yun finished speaking, most of the foundation-building cultivators present looked at each other in bewilderment.
What does this mean?
Ask us to beg and give up our family’s spiritual veins?
People can't be so shameless!
Just when everyone's faces turned cold and they were about to find an excuse to leave, Liu Jingxian spoke again.
"I wonder if our family's spiritual vein will be under your clan's control after it enters the formation plate and flag, and will it no longer belong to us?"
E Yun immediately shook his head and said what he had thought of long ago: "We in the Five Elements Sect only want to provide the safest environment for all cultivators in the Eastern Wilderness. Controlling your spiritual veins is only for the purpose of perfecting the formation."
"Everyone, rest assured. I guarantee that these formation plates and flags are only used to build formations. The ownership of the spirit veins still belongs to your major families.
"However, if it is a war, we will take over all the spiritual veins in the Eastern Wilderness for the safety of the formation. But at that time, I think you will even take the initiative to ask for the protection of our Five Elements Sect!"
After E Yun finished speaking, several of the foundation-building cultivators looked hesitant.
Because they knew clearly that since E Yun, the acting leader of the Five Elements Sect, said these things today, it meant that the Five Elements Sect was already preparing to promote this matter.
Even if all the people present were added together, their strength would not be even one percent of that of the Five Elements Sect.
If it weren't for the fact that under Chen Mobai's leadership over the years, the image of the Five Elements Sect that abides by the rules has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, they would probably have prepared to run away after hearing the news.
"I am willing to offer the Liu family's spiritual vein. I wonder if I can use it to ask your clan for a pill-forming elixir?"
At this moment, Liu Jingxian spoke again.
"I can only report this to the headmaster after most of you agree. You should know that refining a furnace of elixir requires a huge amount of precious medicinal materials. Do you know the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit? It is the main ingredient. Even the several major holy places in Dongzhou do not have it. Only our Five Elements Sect has obtained the orthodox inheritance of the First Ancestor, so we have such a plant..."
E Yun began to talk about the Five Elements Spiritual Tree, and everyone nodded frequently after listening.
There are many people here who don’t have much time left to live.
Relying on the elixirs from Danxia Pavilion, some of them, like Liu Jingxian, have completed their foundation building, while others have broken through to the late stage of foundation building and are looking forward to forming their own elixirs in the future.
According to the locals' thinking, if the family's spiritual vein can bring an opportunity to form a pill, it is worth the gamble.
What if the elixir is formed successfully?
That would mean soaring to the sky and becoming a golden elixir force, which would enable the family to grow even stronger.
Moreover, the family's spiritual veins are not as good as the houses in the Five Elements Sect's fairy cities when it comes to cultivation. There, as long as there are enough spirit stones, one can buy fourth-level spiritual energy.
When I think about it this way, it seems that the spiritual vein inherited from my family isn't that important anymore.
"I am willing. I wonder if there are any other fellow Taoists who are willing?"
Seeing that everyone seemed to have thought about it, Liu Jingxian spoke immediately.
"Our Luo family is willing too!" the second host spoke up.
"If we can ensure that there are elixirs for forming a pill, our Teng family is willing to do so."
"There are still four people in our Xue family who have reached the foundation building stage. I cannot make the decision alone, but I will try to convince them when I return."
……
After E Yun was satisfied with the results he needed, he went to the top of Beiyuan Mountain and told Chen Mobai about the matter.
"Okay, okay, you did a great job on this matter. It also put an end to a matter that was on my mind."
After hearing the whole story, Chen Mobai felt that by using the Jindan elixir, he could seize control of the spiritual veins from these immortal cultivation families without bloodshed, and he couldn't help but nod in approval.
"I have negotiated with them. The control of a third-grade upper-grade spiritual vein can be exchanged for a pill-forming spiritual medicine."
"If they choose to exchange spirit veins for elixirs, then they will be implicitly handing over the control of all spirit veins under their family's control, whether it is first-level, second-level, or third-level. If there are a large number of spirit veins, the sect can also compensate them with some foundation-building treasures."
"Among them, five families have fourth-order spirit veins. I'm afraid one pill of Jindan spirit medicine is not enough. I dare not promise the specific quantity. Please give me instructions, Master."
After getting Chen Mobai's affirmation, E Yun happily talked about the specific conditions of his negotiations with those immortal cultivation families.
All I can say is that the Eastern Wilderness is vast and rich in resources, and a mere foundation-building family actually has a fourth-level spiritual vein.
"Then promise them three pills. However, they can only exchange them when someone in their family has cultivated to the perfect stage of foundation building. We can also allow their cultivators who are about to form a pill to enter the Beiyuan City Library and view all the experiences of forming a pill in our sect."
The value of a fourth-level spiritual vein far exceeds that of three pill-forming spiritual medicines.
However, at present they only want to set up the formation, plus the control during a war period, the spiritual veins actually still belong to those families for use, so the three pills plus the experience of forming a pill are worth about the same.
With the current strength of the Five Elements Sect, the most they can do in a short period of time is to collect materials for two or three furnaces of Golden Liquid Jade Elixir.
The furnace of Xingtian Dao Sect brought its own materials, but the furnaces of Wuxing Sect and Jiutian Dangmo Sect used their own savings.
Even if we want to open the furnace again now, the most we can do is collect the entire furnace.
Therefore, in order to avoid being unable to pay, Chen Mobai stipulated that only when the foundation is built fully, can the elixir of Dan be exchanged through this special channel.
Currently, there are no more than ten cultivators in the major families of the Eastern Wilderness who have completed their foundation building.
"Yes, Master!"
After listening to Chen Mobai's supplementary terms, E Yun nodded repeatedly.
"There is one more thing. If these immortal cultivation families succeed in building their foundation and forming a pill, they will definitely need to refine their own life instruments, and also change the techniques that can be used to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage."
"In the Eastern Wilderness, only our Five Elements Sect has these."
"If they are willing to truly sell their own spiritual veins, I am willing to personally help them refine their own life instruments, and even allow them to enter the library of Beiyuan City to choose a Nascent Soul technique."
When Chen Mobai said this, E Yun was shocked.
But then he thought carefully, if these people succeeded in forming the elixir, then he would definitely be the one who had the final say over the entire family. At that time, given the character of the locals, 90% of them would be willing to use the family's spiritual veins in exchange for the possibility of further advancement.
"Master is very wise!"
E Yun went down with a look of admiration on his face.
When these people from the immortal cultivation family heard these conditions, many of them were overjoyed.
"Can I really view all of your sect's experiences in forming the elixir?"
"Can the Nascent Soul Technique also be exchanged?"
"Hurry, hurry, sign the contract. I'm willing now!"
……
After Chen Mobai's supplement, the new policy gained the support of the majority.
The rest were also excluded from the list by E Yun because there were several foundation-building people in the family who all wanted to make elixirs and were temporarily fighting among themselves.
In order to avoid future disputes, E Yun stipulated that if a family uses the control of spiritual veins to exchange for elixirs for Dan, all the foundation-building masters in the family must sign and agree.
At this time, only a family of immortal cultivators who had established their foundation were able to avoid internal strife.
The Five Elements Sect sent disciples to inform all the spiritual vein forces in the Eastern Wilderness that were not under their control of this matter.
Thanks to the Five Elements Sect's good reputation for abiding by the rules over the past hundred years since Chen Mobai came to power, the first thing the foundation-building leaders of these forces did when they received the news was to find ways to convince other people in the sect.
The good examples of Wang Hemen and Wan Dengyong are there, and the Five Elements Sect’s elixir for forming elixirs is really useful!
During this period, the teleportation array in Beiyuan City was always bright, and the foundation-building forces and cultivators from all over the Eastern Wilderness who received the news personally came here to visit E Yun, who was in charge of this matter.
If it weren't for the fact that the Five Elements Sect had just recently begun to rectify its atmosphere, E Yun would have been able to make at least hundreds of thousands of spirit stones in benefits from this wave alone.
Half a year later, E Yun brought up the first list of people who wanted to exchange for the Jindan elixir.
In addition to the original eight who had completed the foundation building, there were actually two more.
After these two breakthroughs, he had been hiding his cultivation level, so E Yun didn't know about it. However, this time, in order to form the elixir, he took the initiative to expose it, fearing that he would be left behind.
It just so happened that I had a furnace of golden elixir.
However, once the agreement is signed, the Five Elements Sect will have to pay thirty-two pills of elixir-forming elixirs in the future.
However, Chen Mobai felt that it was a great deal as he could incorporate all the spiritual veins in the Eastern Wilderness into the Sky Curtain and Earth Network Array.
After all the materials for the Golden Liquid Jade Pill were collected, Chen Mobai and Qingnv went to Wanhua Fairy City again.
"Xue Ting and Gu Yan have also been in the late stage of foundation building for quite some time..."
After the pill was refined, Qingnv spoke up and reminded Chen Mobai.
The two girls who were helping to pass the herbs shuddered when they heard this and lowered their heads to listen.
Gu Yan was Chen Mobai's maid before. After becoming a Taoist couple with Qingnv, she was sent to Qingnv's side. Later, because Wanhua Fairy City was established, Qingnv didn't have many trustworthy people around her, so she sent Gu Yan here to manage it. Xue Ting was from Chuixue Palace, the predecessor of Wanhua Fairy City. The two women cooperated with each other here, which made Qingnv very worry-free.
This time, the Five Elements Sect has refined so many Golden Liquid Jade Pills that they will not be able to open another furnace within the next ten or twenty years, so Qingnv thought of reserving one pill for each of them.
"It just so happens that I still have three extra pills on hand, so I'll leave two for them."
Chen Mobai understood Qingnv's meaning. Thinking about how the two women had worked diligently in Wanhua Fairy City over the years, he knew that some arrangements must be made.
"Thank you, Master, and thank you, Madam!"
When the two women heard these words, they immediately bowed deeply.
Even though Chen Mobai and Qingnv have been refining Golden Liquid Jade Pills in large quantities in the past two years, this thing is still in short supply within the Five Elements Sect and is extremely precious.
Gu Yan is fine, after all, he is a disciple of the Five Elements Sect.
But Xue Ting is different. Her identity is a bit awkward, and her accumulation is certainly not as good as those of the foundation-building ancestors of the immortal cultivation families. If it weren't for the arrangements of Chen Mobai and Qingnv, she probably wouldn't be able to get a pill of elixir in her life.
"Gu Yan will use the sect's Lingbao Pavilion's channel when the time comes. As for Xue Ting, I will reward her in the name of your Danxia Pavilion. This way, your employees' enthusiasm for work will be improved in the future."
Chen Mobai also thought that Xue Ting was not a disciple of the Five Elements Sect. After pondering for a moment, he decided to open another channel for her to get the Golden Liquid Jade Pill.
This is also for future consideration.
Among the current businesses under the Five Elements Sect, the one that can earn the most spirit stones is Danxia Pavilion.
Compared to the cultivators from the Immortal Sect who are very restrained in the amount of elixirs they use, the cultivators from the Tianhe Realm can be said to be extravagant.
As long as the realm bottleneck and other problems can be solved by elixirs, and if one has enough spirit stones, most of them will be solved by taking them.
If Chen Mobai becomes a god in the future and makes the Five Elements Sect's industry bigger and stronger, or even opens up markets all over the world, Danxia Pavilion will be the most capable competitor.
So in order to enable the employees of Danxia Pavilion to be attentive when opening up the market in the future, Chen Mobai paved the way with Xueting in advance.
This is also the Xuexingtian Chamber of Commerce. They will reward the guests who have made great contributions to the chamber with the Three Lights Holy Water.
For example, Yan Shaoyin, relying on his many years of contribution in helping to refine the elixir, exchanged for a defective version of the Three Lights Divine Water.
It is precisely for this reason that the Xingtian Chamber of Commerce can be as famous as the chambers of commerce in several holy places in the East, and has attracted the support of a large number of talents.
"There are many ripe peaches hanging on the peach trees over at Xiaonan Mountain. You can use my talisman to pick a few. After taking them, you will be able to complete your foundation building."
Chen Mobai sensed the two women's cultivation level and took out a talisman and gave it to them.
Fairy peach fruit is a purely natural spiritual fruit that can save them decades of accumulation of effort and perfect their spiritual power.
Every time Lingbao Pavilion puts a third-grade item on the shelf, it is always snapped up.
Under Zhuo Ming's care, the top of Xiaonan Mountain is now a peach forest. In addition to the fourth-order fairy peach tree in the center that suppresses the spiritual vein, there are more than a dozen third-order peaches planted with branches, and hundreds of second-order peaches.
The Nanshan Fairy Peach Forest is now a very beautiful landscape in Jumuling.
After obtaining Chen Mobai's talisman, the two women can pick fruits from the third-level fairy peach trees.
Qingnv personally took Xueting and Gu Yan to Xiaonan Mountain, while Chen Mobai returned to Beiyuan City. He presided over the matter of incorporating the spiritual veins of those immortal cultivation families into the sky and earth networks, while continuing to protect Zhuo Ming as he refined the five elements spiritual fruit.
In the busyness, time passes very quickly.
Chen Mobai commanded the Spirit Veins Department's Formation Department to completely cover the Eastern Wilderness with the Sky Curtain and Earth Network Formation. Yi Shaoqing shared a lot of the burden because he had refined the external Taoist golden elixir.
Under Chen Mobai's guidance and training, Yi Shaoqing became a standard fourth-level formation master in the Tianhe Realm.
However, because the Five Elements Sect's reform of the Hundred Arts Assessment for Immortal Cultivation has now reached the standard of the Immortal Sect, he is still only a third-rank formation master in the Eastern Wilderness.
But for Chen Mobai, it is enough.
Because he will personally take care of the most difficult part of the Sky Curtain and Earth Network Array.
On this day, Chen Mobai inserted the last array plate into the Wang family's fourth-order spiritual vein, feeling the complete harmony and penetration of the sky and earth network array that ran through the entire Eastern Wasteland. The Crown of All Living Things in the World involuntarily appeared above his head.
At this moment, he not only obtained the heart of the East Barren, but even the vast land and infinite inspiration fell completely into his hands.
"The sky is erected, and the earth is formed!"
As Chen Mobai shouted out these six words, he suddenly teleported to the top of Beiyuan Mountain.
At the moment when the Sky Curtain and Earth Network Array completely enveloped the Eastern Wilderness, he was able to use the thousands of array plates and hundreds of thousands of array flags arranged in various places in the Eastern Wilderness to locate the Void Teleport.
This is also the basis for the positioning of the Xianmen's sky and earth network formation. However, because the Xianmen has the fifth-level heavenly beads, they can locate the building number on a certain street in more detail.
As long as there are three or more flags covering that position, it will be fine.
The core fifth-order spirit veins of the sky-curtain and earth-network formation in the Eastern Wilderness could not be arranged with such precision because Chen Mobai was the only one who arranged them.
But now that the main framework has been laid out, all we have to do next is to continuously inject formation flags into the spiritual veins of the formation, and one day we will be able to do the same thing.
Even now, Chen Mobai can easily locate the core spiritual veins of all the immortal cities in Donghuang.
After successfully trying to use the Great Teleportation to locate himself at the top of Beiyuan Mountain, Chen Mobai nodded with satisfaction, then teleported back to the Wang family's fourth-level spiritual vein again and notified Yi Shaoqing and other disciples of the Five Elements Sect that they could disband.
In order to complete the sky and earth network formation that covers the entire Eastern Wilderness, Chen Mobai has led them and worked hard for a full ten years.
A year ago, Chen Mobai felt that his cultivation level was about to break through.
However, for the sake of the overall formation, he could only suppress it temporarily.
Now that the formation was completed, he no longer had any worries after dismissing his disciples.
On the top of the mountain in Beiyuan City, vast and pure fifth-level spiritual energy poured in continuously. Between breaths, Chen Mobai easily stepped into the eighth level of the Nascent Soul realm.
