953: Chapter 258_5 953: Chapter 258_5 Xiang Ziyu answered matter-of-factly, “Of course, since I’ve managed the Spirit Field, naturally I would also need to cultivate Spiritual dicine.
Otherwise, what use would the Spirit Field be?”
Cao Zhen’s gaze swept across each dicinal plant until it finally landed on a Spiritual dicine that was half a person tall, shrouded in a deep blue hue, and emanating a faint fragrance.
He said, “You did accomplish so work here.
That’s the Orchid.
It’s exactly the Spiritual dicine needed for concocting pills for your junior sister.
There’s no longer a need to go out and find this herb.”
Xiang Ziyu, with a look that seed to ask for a reprimand, said, “Master, if we’re talking about this kind of herb, there’s no need to pick them at all.
Our Four Treasures Peak’s treasure house has plenty of this kind of herb.
Is this herb very precious?
I once went to a ruin and gathered over a hundred Orchids at one ti.”
“Oh?
We have a treasure house at Four Treasures Peak now?
Show …”
As Cao Zhen walked along, he noticed that several courtyards had been constructed along the way, as well as rivers that had been widened without human intervention and nurous fish ponds.
Then, after reaching halfway up the mountain, one could see new buildings, the style of which primarily emphasized luxury.
Each house was built very large, each crafted from precious materials.
“Master, look, this is your Cave Mansion, this is the Conference Hall of our Four Treasures Peak, this is junior sister’s room…”
As the eldest disciple, Ling Xi showed Master around each room.
In the end, she pointed to a three-story building built against the mountain and said, “Master, this is the treasure house of our Four Treasures Peak.
It’s rather shaful to admit, being the eldest disciple, I’ve ventured out a few tis but gained little.
It is the third disciple who brings back a great amount of resources each ti he goes out.
Ninety percent of the resources in this treasure house were brought back by him.”
As Ling Xi spoke, she approached the treasure house’s large door and pressed her hand against it.
As streams of Spiritual Energy flowed into it, the hefty doors slowly opened.
Cao Zhen stepped into the treasure house and was imdiately greeted by waves of fragrant aromas.
Looking around, one-third of this floor of the treasure house was filled with dicinal materials.
While it was only a third, the treasure house was so large that having one-third filled with dicinal materials was already quite alarming!
Especially since these materials did not require inspection; he could discern their extre rarity and value rely by slling them.
For a mont, even he was stunned by the sheer quantity of materials: “Are you saying that ninety percent of these materials were brought by Xiang Ziyu?”
“To Master, it’s a little less than that with the dicinal materials; about eighty percent were brought by junior brother.
However, many of the other treasures and alchemy ingredients were almost all brought by him,” she replied.
Mainly because the disciples of Four Treasures Peak all knew that Master excels in alchemy, as does Yi Sheng, so whenever they went out, they intentionally sought various dicinal materials.
Therefore, as other people brought back more dicinal materials, the proportion of those Xiang Ziyu brought back deceased; it was not because he brought back too few.
“So it is…” Cao Zhen nodded slightly but suddenly turned to look at Duo Duo and said, “The materials for concocting your pills have been gathered.
I can now find the materials and pass the thod of concocting pills onto your fifth sister, so she can make them for you.”
Concocting pills for the Ancient Immortal Body to break through to the Golden Core Stage required an unusually large and precious amount of materials.
At first, he had expended considerable effort and even needed the Grand Preceptor to accompany him out on a grand theft to gather enough materials.
Now that he had returned to the Hundred Peaks Sect, he found that these materials were already gathered by his disciples, with no need to search for them.
He truly didn’t know how many tis, especially Xiang Ziyu, had gone out to gather such a large amount of materials.
The first floor was dedicated to storing dicinal materials, while the second floor was reserved for crafting Divine Weapons, and the third floor contained a collection of oddities, which was the least filled floor.
One didn’t need to guess that these curios were certainly the work of Xiang Ziyu.
Cao Zhen quickly returned to the first floor, carefully selected the materials needed for Duo Duo’s pill concoction, and then left the treasure house.
However, he suddenly realized a problem.
“Right, isn’t it the day for our Hundred Peaks Sect to select disciples?
If all of you are up here at Four Treasures Peak, then who is choosing the disciples?”
“Choosing disciples?” Ling Xi paused, her voice filled with surprise, “We haven’t chosen any disciples.
Over the years, our Four Treasures Peak has not taken on any new disciples.
Master, didn’t you say back then not to indiscriminately accept disciples?”
Cao Zhen suddenly rembered that he had once reprimanded his disciples for taking in two disciples upon their return.
So, these disciples really did listen, and fifty years passed without admitting a single one?
For a mont, Cao Zhen truly didn’t know whether to feel happy or sad.
His disciples being obedient was a good thing, but now, he wasn’t worried about having too many disciples.
The more disciples Four Treasures Peak had, the stronger his era would be.
And this strength of era was supposed to surpass that of the Hundred Peaks Sect.
Nevertheless…
Cao Zhen looked at Duo Duo and Zhu Peng beside him, then shook his head and said, “Never mind, it’s probably for the best.
Too many disciples would indeed be hard to manage.”
He currently had seven disciples and couldn’t look after them all.
If he had more, he truly wouldn’t be able to handle it.
