Chen Sheng turned and went downstairs, passing by the registration desk.
The Dharma Transmission Elder’s withered fingers lightly slid across the Golden Order, and the number representing the contribution points suddenly decreased. Three jade scrolls engraved with pill patterns floated in mid-air.
Chen Sheng cupped his hands, "Thank you, Elder."
After speaking, he pressed his fingertip against the jade scroll and injected mana.
The three jade scrolls imdiately emitted three golden rainbows, which darted into his forehead like swimming fish.
In the sea of consciousness, a wave of piercing pain surged up. Countless mysterious runes surged in the golden light, as if a blazing sun was burning inside his skull.
Chen Sheng instinctively pressed his temples, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead:
"Elder, this is..."
The Dharma Transmission Elder, stroking his white beard, had a knowing smile in his eyes:
"True Inheritor need not worry. This golden light is the Three Extres Ban set by the Patriarch, specifically to prevent leakage of cultivation techniques."
"The first three days may be slightly painful, but once the runes rge with the sea of consciousness, it will be fine."
Chen Sheng felt the overbearing power of the restriction deep in the sea of consciousness and frowned slightly:
"I rember the last ti I was here, the cultivation technique only emitted white light when it entered my consciousness, and it wasn’t this uncomfortable."
"That was also a sea of consciousness restriction, called Forgetful Ban."
"If one forcibly transmits a cultivation technique, the sea of consciousness will experience unbearable pain until the relevant content is forgotten."
The Dharma Transmission Elder nodded gently:
"True Inheritor’s words are correct. I imagine the last ti True Inheritor ca, they only selected techniques from the lower three layers."
"This ti, True Inheritor selected the profound inheritance from the fourth and fifth layers, requiring a higher level of secrecy. The cultivation realm is not short of violent soul-searchers, and the Forgetful Ban is insufficient."
"The golden light in True Inheritor’s sea of consciousness now contains the Forgetful, Spirit Lock, and Divine Slaughter three-layer chain restriction."
"If subjected to a violent soul-search, the sea of consciousness will self-detonate the runes to ensure the inheritance will not leak."
Upon hearing this, Chen Sheng was filled with dread.
Detonating the sea of consciousness, how could one survive!
This Three Extres Ban is far more domineering than the simple Forgetful Ban.
Chen Sheng cupped his hands and said:
"Thank you, Elder, for enlightening ."
The Elder of Skill Transmission laughed heartily, "If True Inheritor is interested, this old man has nothing that cannot be spoken of."
Chen Sheng thanked him with a smile, exchanged communication thods with the Dharma Transmission Elder, and then left the Dharma Transmission Pavilion.
On the way, the mountain wind brushed against his cheek.
Chen Sheng rubbed his forehead, pondering:
"This restriction technique is profoundly mystical, preventing soul-searches and the leakage of secrets. If I can learn it, the secrets of the Hundred Generations Book would be safe from any leakage."
...
Before long, the Sect Hall.
Chen Sheng exchanged from the Sect Treasure Vault a Tier One High Grade Dragon Blood Fruit and Flood Dragon Saliva Juice.
The Dragon Blood Fruit is about the size of a fist, like an agate wrapped in crimson clouds. The dragon pattern on the peel needs to be activated with essence blood to exert its dicinal effects. A single one is worth five hundred contribution points.
In the end, Chen Sheng exchanged for ten pieces.
The Flood Dragon Saliva Juice in the jade bottle beside it shimrs with a silvery-white light, thick like silk, and must be stored in a Profound Ice Jade Box to maintain its vitality. A single portion requires two thousand contribution points.
"Ten Dragon Blood Fruits and one bottle of Flood Dragon Saliva Juice total seven thousand contribution points."
Chen Sheng once again experienced the feeling of spending money like flowing water;
"Seven thousand contribution points, that’s almost half a Foundation Establishnt Pill. The cultivation technique’s demand for resources is too high."
"And it’s only the first three layers, requiring just Tier One Spiritual Objects. From the fourth layer on, it involves many Tier Two Dragon Blood Treasures, worth tens to hundreds of tis more."
Chen Sheng weighed the jade box in his hand and recalled the various resources described in the subsequent passages of the Sea Overturning Flood Dragon Technique, feeling a headache!
"It seems I still need to make money!"
In his mind, a thought gradually took shape:
"The business of the Boutique Pill Hall needs expansion!"
Previously, Chen Sheng was constrained by his identity and strength and controlled the flow of elixirs, selling only a hundred furnaces of pills monthly, creating artificial scarcity pricing.
"Now that I have the identity of a True Disciple of the Sect, I can gradually expand the alchemy business. Additionally, I must utilize those networking connections of mine."
"It would be best to establish a comrce association, building a complete channel that not just makes money, but also collects intelligence and resources for ."
"The items in the Sect Treasure Vault require contribution points, but collecting them from outside, although ti-consuming, only costs spirit stones."
"And with the network laid out, perhaps I’ll find special resources that even the Treasure Vault lacks."
Chen Sheng unconsciously rubbed the Purple Ying Gourd hanging from his waist. The purple qi from the gourd seeped through his fingers and into his ridians, nourishing his body.
"At present, cultivation cos first. I need soone to help handle these trivial matters."
"Shuang’Er is an excellent steward; she knows how to allocate manpower and is familiar with the Immortal City."
"With , the True Disciple of the Sect, overseeing and directing from behind, the channel network should be quickly established."
Thinking this, Chen Sheng took out a Communication Jade Talisman. After injecting mana, he imdiately sent it to Fenghua Immortal City.
...
Soon after.
Chen Sheng returned to Hidden Dragon Cave, sat cross-legged in front of the Earth Fire Furnace, and placed the Dragon Blood Fruit beside the furnace.
He drew a guiding array on the peel with essence blood. The fruit imdiately throbbed like a heartbeat, and the dragon pattern on the peel gradually turned into writhing crimson light.
Chen Sheng swallowed the Dragon Blood Fruit, and then used the earth fire to refine his physique, soon closing his eyes.
"Body refining begins!"
...
Fenghua Immortal City, Heart Inquiry Hall.
Wu Lingshuang looked at the ssage in her hand, her eyes imdiately lighting up:
"My lord intends for to build a channel network in the Sect and Fenghua Immortal City and establish a comrce association."
This concerns her future and prospects.
Wu Lingshuang was incredibly attentive:
"This matter must be accomplished well!"
...
In the blink of an eye, half a year.
Fenghua Immortal City, Chen Clan Comrce Association.
Wu Lingshuang was handing a token engraved with the character "Chen" to the chief alchemist in the Alchemy Room. The Flood Dragon pattern on the token ca alive under the stimulation of spiritual power.
"As per my lord’s instructions, this batch of Purifying Heart Pills is refined using the old pill formula, adding three qian of Dragon’s Brain Fragrance per furnace."
The alchemist respectfully replied:
"Madam, we understand."
Wu Lingshuang nodded lightly, returned to the hall, and picked up the account book on the desk.
Recorded on it are the nas of nearly a hundred distribution points, spreading from Fenghua Immortal City as the center to the surrounding markets, densely packed like stars scattered across the sky.
For the past half year.
Wu Lingshuang frequently traveled between Fenghua Immortal City and Qinghua Sect, working at high intensity.
Gave birth one day and was back to work the next day.
Relying on Chen Sheng’s identity and connections, she quickly established a moderately scaled channel network, taking the opportunity to recruit many alchemists from the Alchemy Alliance.
Chen Sheng, providing decision-making guidance from behind, finally selected a high-quality pill formula with reasonable refining difficulty from previous versions.
Specifically requested the Sect’s Dharma Transmission Elder to set the Forgetful Ban for him, then confidently taught the pill formula.
Let the alchemists go full throttle in refining and distributing pills.
Thus, a continuous flow of spirit stones began to converge on the company, supporting Chen Sheng’s cultivation.
...
At this mont.
Deep within Hidden Dragon Cave.
Chen Sheng’s body was already covered with fine red scales, each scale shimring with a tallic luster.
It’s unclear how much ti had passed.
From his Dantian ca a soft sound.
The Reversed Scale that had been condensing for half a year finally took shape, radiating a weighty power suppressing the Dantian.
Chen Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, his cold vertical pupils flashing two golden lights:
"The third layer of the Sea Overturning Flood Dragon Technique is complete!"
He raised his hand to touch his chest, feeling the abundance of mana in his Dantian, circulating with a Dragon-like low roar.
Chen Sheng couldn’t help but smile:
"The ti has co, with Qi Cultivation Perfection, it’s finally ti to advance to Foundation Establishnt!"
