The Four Sects may or may not have lost their minds, Luo Chen didn’t know.
But Luo Chen knew that all the vassal forces under the command of the Four Sects, even the rogue Foundation Establishnt Cultivators mingling in this place, had all gone mad.
Each of the Four Sects offered up one Core Formation Secret Technique—so grand and so generous.
For the countless Cultivators stuck in the Late Stage Foundation Establishnt with no way to pursue Core Formation, it was as if a path to heaven had just opened up!
Even the Early Stage and Middle Stage Foundation Cultivators, who seemingly had no urgent need, who wouldn’t want to make early preparations?
Luo Chen looked at the four Core Formation Secret Techniques listed above, each with the corresponding number of rit Points needed for exchange detailed beside them.
The highest among them was none other than the Great Technique of Pill Formation from Luo Yun Sect—"Bead Curtain Lock."
To exchange for this technique, one would need a full ten thousand rit Points!
The next in line were the Simple Techniques of Pill Formation from the three other sects, each requiring only two thousand rit Points.
Among them was the Dragon Phoenix Tribulation from the Ice Castle.
Luo Chen himself possessed this technique, and even the two types of Third Order Pills required for it had long been prepared.
To be ranked alongside it, the other two would not be far off either in value.
Yet even so, for a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator who is not a True Disciple of a Great Sect, even a Simple Technique of Pill Formation is quite precious.
Now, the Four Sects had flung open the doors of generosity.
They blatantly laid out the exchange channels right in front of them—who wouldn’t be tempted?
At the very least, Luo Chen, who already had one Secret Technique, was staring intently at "Bead Curtain Lock."
"President, we should..." Luo Chen heard Duan Feng’s voice beside him.
Luo Chen snapped back to reality and looked at Duan Feng, whose eyes were filled with yearning.
He turned his head and noticed that Xu Huanzhen was even more breathlessly eager.
The higher the realm, the more desperate the thirst for Core Formation Secret Techniques!
It was not just them—among the thousand rogue Cultivators gathered around the huge stele, all of them were extrely agitated at this very mont.
So people didn’t even want to rest but wanted to rush back to the battlefield of Accumulated Thunder Ninth Mountain.
"No wonder that when it was ti for rotation, I felt the number of Cultivators increased by several percents from before."
"It seems they also received the news and rushed enthusiastically to the battlefield as newcors."
As Luo Chen murmured, his gaze inadvertently caught sight of a few Ninth Level Foundation Establishnt Cultivators conversing seriously before leaving.
He swallowed hard, forcing himself to stay calm.
The greater the benefit, the greater the risk!
With the four Core Formation Secret Techniques revealed, it would likely drive all the vassal forces and rogue Cultivators within the Four Sects Alliance to madness.
If they went mad here, then the Sword Sect wouldn’t remain motionless.
This ant that the intensity of the war was bound to escalate further.
Watching the two beside him who were excited beyond asure, Luo Chen calmly admonished, "First, we go back and rest!"
Xu Huanzhen and Duan Feng looked at each other but did not dare to contradict his words.
By the ti they returned to their base.
The news had already spread, and even the Qi Refinent Stage Cultivators of Luo Tian Creed were discussing this matter enthusiastically.
Luo Chen calmly pulled Xu and Duan into a room.
"Don’t let the Core Formation Secret Techniques muddle your mind!"
Xu Huanzhen swallowed hard, "But among them, there is a Great Technique of Pill Formation, too!"
Luo Chen frowned, "Did you not see the corresponding rit Points needed?"
At these words, Xu Huanzhen froze, and the fervor in his eyes gradually dissipated.
He opened his mouth as if to speak, but ultimately, he heaved a sigh in resignation.
Indeed! The required points were simply too many.
The rules for acquiring rit Points set by the Four Sects Alliance were simple and brutal.
Ordinary defensive tasks provided very low rit Points.
Patrolling, standing guard, scouting for information, and the like were a bit higher in rewards, but still scant.
There was only one way to earn a large number of rit Points.
Killing the enemy!
Killing a Qi Refinent Stage enemy could get you ten rit Points.
Killing an Early Stage Foundation Establishnt enemy could get you a hundred rit Points.
Killing a Middle Stage Foundation Establishnt enemy could get you two hundred.
Only by killing a Late Stage Foundation Establishnt enemy could you directly gain five hundred rit Points!
In other words, to exchange for the Simple Techniques of Pill Formation from the three sects, one would need to kill at least two hundred Qi Refinent Stage enemies or twenty Early Stage Foundation Establishnt, ten Middle Stage Foundation Establishnt, or four Late Stage Foundation Establishnt Great Cultivators!
This was just too difficult.
The Luo Tian Creed had been stationed for two years and had barely amassed seven hundred rit Points.
The majority of which ca from Min Longyu, who, with the help of an Array, fortuitously blasted five Early Stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivators to death.
Now with those rit Points having been spent on Foundation Establishnt Pills, only a hundred remained.
This showed the difficulty of acquiring rit Points.
And this was just for the Simple Technique of Pill Formation.
If one aspired to exchange for the "Bead Curtain Lock" offered by the Luo Yun Sect, the effort needed to multiply fivefold!
This was simply beyond the reach of a Foundation Establishnt True Cultivator.
To massacre hundreds of Early Stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivators or twenty Late Stage Foundation Establishnt ones?
Anyone capable of such a feat would have to be at least a Golden Core Ascendant Master!
But here’s the catch.
If one were a Golden Core Ascendant Master already, who would care for these techniques of Core Formation?
Moreover, the rules of exchange clearly restricted that only those below Golden Core and outside the Four Sects Cultivators could participate in such exchanges of rit Points.
This one rule blocked any Golden Core Ascendant Master from the first-tier forces from acquiring Core Formation techniques through the war.
Seeing the two despondent figures.
Luo Chen shook his head.
"I am tempted as well, but one must know oneself and know one’s limits."
"Just now, you may not have noticed that even the Late Stage Foundation Establishnt Great Cultivators—who need the Core Formation Secret Techniques the most—were all extrely serious."
"You, in the Third Level Foundation Establishnt, and the other in the Sixth Level Foundation Establishnt, are centuries away from Core Formation. Why the rush?"
With these words of consolation.
Xu and Duan were able to co back to their senses.
