Chapter 1958: Chapter 956: The Strongest Dharma Body
“Thank you, Sect Leader!”
After receiving Chen Mobai’s promise, Yan Shaoyin went down with gratitude.
At the entrance, Zhou Wangshen was already waiting. The two nodded at each other, serving as a greeting, and the forr entered the hall.
“Sect Leader, this is the Five Elents Essence condensed by the disciples!”
Upon entering, Zhou Wangshen respectfully handed over a storage bag.
Chen Mobai used his Divine Sense to look inside and found hundreds of glass bottles filled with Five Elents Essence. The different essences shone with various colors, making them easy to distinguish.
Everyone in the Five Elents Sect, from top to bottom, regarded Chen Mobai’s matters as the utmost importance.
After Zhou Wangshen received this task, aside from his cultivation, he was busy with this.
Besides the disciples within the sect, he also sent people to recruit Loose Cultivators stuck at bottlenecks from the Spirit Treasure Pavilions of various Immortal Cities in the Eastern Wilderness, spending Spirit Stones to hire them to transform their stagnant Spiritual Power into Five Elents Essence through daily ditation.
This was much easier than farming or soil reclamation, making it a coveted task for many Loose Cultivators.
Regarding this matter, many external forces in the Eastern Wilderness were puzzled, as this practice of hiring people for cultivation was unprecedented in the East Continent. Previously, such situations were only seen among the Demon Path on the East Li’s side.
Upon learning of this, so displeased neighbors reported it to the Nine Heavens Morality Sect.
Out of duty, the Nine Heavens Morality Sect also sent people to investigate.
But every cultivator condensing the Five Elents Essence did so voluntarily and had to compete for the task.
After all, many Loose Cultivators had impure Spiritual Power, and the Essence they condensed was even more impure, filled with impurities.
Therefore, Zhou Wangshen required assessnts and screening for Loose Cultivators who wanted to condense Five Elents Essence.
However, once passing the evaluation, they essentially secured stable employnt.
As long as the Spiritual Power was qualified, there was no limit to how much Five Elents Essence they could condense, with the newly established Spirit Vault of the Five Elents Sect collecting all of it.
A bottle of Five Elents Essence contained ten strands and could be exchanged for 100 Low Grade Spirit Stones.
Cultivators in the late stage of Qi Cultivation could condense one strand in about three to four days, while those stuck at bottlenecks could condense a bottle in a month with nightly ditation.
Of course, since condensing the Five Elents Essence required dissipating the hard-earned Spiritual Power, it also took a toll on the cultivator’s essence, energy, and spirit. If one fully committed to this task, they typically couldn’t take on another job.
Nevertheless, the reward was higher than the average salary for major infrastructure projects within the Five Elents Sect.
Naturally, it was fiercely competitive.
After learning about this, the Nine Heavens Morality Sect also found out the “truth” deliberately leaked by Zhou Wangshen, that the Five Elents Sect had found a dead Five Elents Spirit Tree within their Secret Realm and was trying to revive it using this thod left by the Longevity Sect.
Many people felt that the Five Elents Sect was wasting their efforts.
After all, the Five Elents Spirit Tree had strict requirents for its growth environnt, ranking among the top three precious Spirit Plants in the Tianhe Realm. Once dead, it’s nearly impossible to revive it.
Since no one was hard due to the Five Elents Essence, the people sent by the Nine Heavens Morality Sect visited the Eastern Wilderness and left after a quick tour.
Before leaving, E Yun also found out who reported it.
It was a Foundation Establishnt sect in the territory of the Sun Bathing Sea, on the East Barbarians’ side.
Needless to say, it must have been instigated by Ancestor Bai Wu.
Another grudge was added.
“Not bad, with these Five Elents Essences, my External Incarnation Heavenly Viscera Realm can be condensed by nearly one-tenth.”
Chen Mobai looked at the storage bag containing over six hundred bottles of Five Elents Essence, nodding in satisfaction.
“Sect Leader, these are the Five Elents Essences condensed by our Five Elents Sect disciples this year. In the Spirit Vaults of other Immortal Cities, we can still purchase the sa quantity from Loose Cultivators, but according to strict standards, probably only one or two hundred bottles et the requirents.”
Zhou Wangshen imdiately explained, fearing Chen Mobai would misunderstand his capability, and clarified that this storage bag was not the entire year’s harvest.
“This year? Isn’t this twenty years of stock?”
Unexpectedly, Chen Mobai caught a different keyword and was taken aback.
“Every year, the purchased Five Elents Essence is stored in the Golden Light Immortal City. Since the number of cultivators practicing Five Elents property cultivation techniques varies, following the complete set of five bottles of Five Elents, there are probably about twelve hundred sets.”
“The quantity is indeed a bit low, mainly because in the early years, when the Spirit Vault was just established, many were skeptical, so there wasn’t much Essence collected. Now, it’s on track, and the disciple is confident that starting next year, we can collect a thousand bottles annually, equivalent to two hundred sets of Five Elents Essence.”
“Now, forces across the Eastern Wilderness, and even those in East Barbarians and East Wu, know of this business and seek this thod, wanting their own disciples to help us condense the Five Elents Essence and earn a commission. Considering the quality of the Essence, the disciple hasn’t agreed.”
“Moreover, the disciple feels that the previously set price of one hundred Spirit Stones per bottle to open the market is now a bit high. Starting next year, it can be reduced to eighty Spirit Stones to save so costs for the Sect Leader.”
