Chapter 67: 067 Golden Jade Fairy Gate_l
Translator: 549690339
Bai Yue Immortal City has three temples, namely Lingdian, Zhandian, and
Zhendian.
Lingdian is managed by Elder Tianpu, the senior disciple of True Man Baiyue, responsible for handling spiritual fields, foreign areas, domestic house trading and renting, and it is the cash cow of Baiyue Immortal City.
Zhandian is managed by Fairy Fengling, the second disciple of True Man Baiyue, who is responsible for all the guards of Baiyue Immortal City and serves as its spear and shield.
Zhendian is run by Xu Wansheng, the third disciple of True Man Baiyue. It builds up a new force that leans Baiyue Immortal City, by recruiting cultivators from various arts.
Although it is a newly established strength, it is not to be underestimated within Baiyue Immortal City.
As Su Yu has heard, over the years, Zhendian had already taken in hundreds of people, with more than ten of them being above the second stage. The loose cultivators of various arts within Baiyue Immortal City have somehow become enchanted with Zhendian.
The growth trend of Zhendian is quite impressive.
Most importantly, when it comes to managing the resources of Immortal
Cultivation Arts in Baiyue Immortal City, no one can compare to Zhendian.
However, Su Yu looked troubled and said, “I am afraid I would be a disappointment, friend. I am the alchemist of the Yu family, and this Dan
Pavilion was established by Miss Yu Ke’er. I suppose I cannot join Zhendian.”
Hu Xiu replied, “The third son made a decision not too long ago. In addition to becoming a disciple of Zhendian, the cultivators of various arts can also choose to become external worshippers of Zhendian. They can accept tasks in Zhendian in exchange for contribution value, which can be used to exchange various resources provided by Zhendian, including Foundation Establishment
Pills, and continuation of alchemist, such as second-level superior alchemist.”
Hu Xiu cast a smile on Su Yu and said, “Zhendian won’t severely restrict its worshippers. You only need to complete two fixed tasks each year, and you are free to choose your tasks.”
“In addition to this, Zhendian won’t force worshippers to do anything else, nor do they care about the identity of the worshippers.”
“Thus, Taoist Friend Su, you can join Zhendian and become a worshipper.” Shortly after, Hu Xiu left with satisfaction.
As for Su Yu, he was stunned. It seemed that the third disciple of True Man Baiyue, Xu Wansheng had great ambitions.
If Hu Xiu was right, then all the loose cultivators of various arts gathered in Baiyue Immortal City would choose to join Zhendian as worshipping members. They can earn contribution values by accepting tasks.
Then, with the contribution value, they could exchange for the resources they needed.
In this way, the development of Zhendian would be unstoppable.
This power development mode is too attractive, especially for the loose cultivators.
After careful thoughts, Su Yu decided to join Zhendian as a worshipper. After all, there are basically no restrictions on becoming a worshipper. They just needed to complete two tasks of any grade each year.
For example, as a second-rank lower-grade alchemist, he could simply accept two tasks of refining second-class lower-grade pills.
Besides this, there is no other constraint.
This is not going to harm him at all.
As such, Zhendian, which relies on Baiyue Immortal City, undoubtedly has the most abundant resources for the cultivation of various arts in Baiyue Immortal City.
Perhaps, he could leverage Zhendian to collect some of the materials he needs.
Of course, he won’t be foolish enough to expose all of himself in Zhendian by exchanging everything he has.
“Let’s observe for a while before deciding.” Su Yu frowned slightly. If Zhendian really had control over all the cultivators of various arts in Baiyue Immortal City, or even just a majority of them, Zhendian would be a force to be reckoned with.
In such a situation, he couldn’t tell if it was good or bad for him. He could only take actions based on the situation.
If it’s really not suitable, he’ll simply leave.
The world of cultivation is vast, and Baiyue Immortal City is only the nearest large scale market city and it’s not the only one to go to.
Of course, all of this is just him thinking ahead for the worst-case scenario. It doesn’t necessarily mean that such a situation will occur.
After all, as long as he keeps a low profile, he is merely invisible.
For a power like Zhendian, he would not expect their attention to be on him.
When he returns to the backyard.
Su Yu checked his own treasury. Apart from his expenses during this period, he has a little over three thousand pieces of lower-grade spirit stones. The profit from Dan Pavilion in three months is barely a thousand lower-grade spirit stones.
“Next, store more second-rank lower-grade talismans.” Su Yu pondered in silence.
Over this period of time, he focused on cultivating, alchemy, and Mechanic Beasts but barely spent any time drawing symbols.
The inventory of his second-rank lower-grade talismans is less than ten.
This is too scary.
He must replenish his stock quickly.
With this thought, Su Yu released his Dao-body Mechanic Beast that had changed its appearance into an old man wearing a bamboo hat, leaving Dan Pavilion quietly to purchase materials needed for the second-rank lower-grade talismans.
By the time Su Yu returned to the alley yard in the evening, the Dao-body
Mechanic Beast had been waiting in the underground cellar for a long time. Su Yu, focused and calm, murmured lowly, “Next, draw symbols.”
Lower-rank second-level invisibility talisman, lower-rank second-level Godspeed talisman, lower-rank second-level breath-cloaking talisman, lower-rank second-level Tian Gang armor talisman…
Su Yu drew a batch of these common but useful talismans.
Because of the limitation of materials, special talismans like the Thunder Fire Talisman, Fire Dragon Talisman, Fire Thunder Sword Talisman only accounted for less than forty percent. The materials for these talismans are fairly expensive, there isn’t much talisman paper, and even fewer high-quality talisman paper.
For the next half a year,
Su Yu spent his spare time drawing talismans in the cellar under the room in the alley yard.
Although the second-rank lower-grade talismans are difficult to draw, as Su
Yu became more proficient in drawing talismans, he could create two second-rank lower-grade talismans within one night.
It was mostly because his mana at the ninth level of Qi Refinement couldn’t support it.
Otherwise, the production quantity could be increased.
The success rate isn’t one hundred percent, but it is definitely above ninety percent.
On this day,
When Su Yu was cultivating in the backyard of Dan Pavilion, Yu Ke’er showed up after being absent for half a year. Although it was just half a year, Yu Ke’er had already broken through the bottleneck of the Foundation Establishment Realm to reach the first level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Yu Ke’er’s talent was not weak, and she had accumulated for many years in the stage of Qi Refinement. She broke through to the level of Foundation Establishment Realm when she was forty years old.
Compared to Su Zhi, Luo Qianyu, and others, she was much slower.
Seeing Su Yu, Yu Ke’er did not idle around, but with a somewhat solemn expression, she said, “There is an Immortal Dao relic appearing in the Eight-Demon Ridge. This is the goal of the demonic cultivation and the robbers who have been haunting Eight-Demon Ridge.”
“Now, that place has attracted the attention of numerous forces and cultivators. It is said that both Elder Tianpu and Fairy Fengling of Baiyue Immortal City have taken people to the Eight-Demon Ridge.”
Su Yu was amazed. The places that could be considered as Immortal Dao relics were no simple places and could form a secret domain of their own.
The ancient jade boxes and ancient inheritances that were handed down all came from such places.
Su Yu originally thought Yu Ke’er was planning to invite him to explore the relic together, but it wasn’t.
Yu Ke’er looked at Su Yu softly and said, “My Yu family got involved, and we need a batch of pills and talismans. The family asked me to collect as much as possible in Baiyue Immortal City. Have a look at this list, and see how much you can refine.”
Yu Ke’er handed over a list, and Su Yu’s eyes sparkled as he read it.
In his eyes, there were only two words, making a fortune.
But soon after, Su Yu came to know the name of that Immortal Dao relic from Yu Ke’er’s mouth, and he was horrified.
