Although he had taken many rides on the teleportation array, Ji An always felt a sense of awe.
He kept wondering, what lies beyond that gray channel and in what form is a cultivator transported?
After the montary blur of vision, it gradually clears up, and the sensation of traveling thousands of miles in an instant is so intoxicating.
In the Central Continent, there are teleportation arrays that connect hundreds of thousands of miles, how vast this world is!
In the Western Continent, as a Chao Origin Stage cultivator, he is considered a High-Tier Cultivator. But looking at the whole world, he fears he is rely a frog at the bottom of a well.
Stepping out of the cave, he saw cultivators riding various spirit ships taking off and landing from afar, that was where the Agricultural Hall was located.
The Agricultural Hall had been completed half a year ago and had already finalized exchanges with other halls, only waiting for formal occupancy.
Ji An watched for a mont, then turned to the adjacent grotto mansion.
Ge Ying sat quietly on a chair, holding a cup of fragrant tea with steam swirling in her hands.
Sunlight cast on her, outlining a silhouette interwoven with light and shadow.
The crow’s feet by her eyes started to increase, and amidst her black hair was a sign of gray.
The life force provided by the Lifespan Extension Pill was slowly unable to counteract the depletion of vigor and blood.
When a cultivator’s vigor and blood start to decline, it’s like a barrel beginning to crack.
Sadly, these cracks are irreparable.
Thus, once a cultivator’s vigor and blood start to decline, it indicates that their potential has been exhausted.
Ji An keenly sensed a faint aura of decay emanating from his master.
’Unable to attain immortality, one cannot withstand the passage of ti!’
He felt a pang of lant in his heart, but his face bore a warm, sunny smile:
"Greetings, Master. I’ve brought you so White Jade Bee honey, plus so dried mulberries and mulberry wine."
He took out a storage bag and placed it on the table beside her.
Ge Ying’s eyes were filled with a happy smile, and she said kindly:
"So many good things for , it’s a bit wasteful, they should be given to those cultivators who need them more."
The disciple often brought her items, all fine Second-Level Middle Grade goods.
Sotis she would think, if during her Foundation Establishnt Stage she could have such spiritual objects, she would likely have broken through to the Chao Origin Stage.
"Master, it’s not like that, these are filial gifts from your disciple. Others wouldn’t have the qualification."
Ge Ying laughed, feeling as sweet as if she had tasted honey.
After chit-chatting for a while, Ji An cupped his hands and said:
"Today marks exactly three years since I broke through to the Chao Origin Stage; the responsibilities I should bear must now be taken up.
I plan to first visit the Treasure Pavilion, then go to the Diligence Hall to conduct the handover for Ningcui Cliff, and finally officially take charge of the Agricultural Hall."
"Ti flies, it feels like a blink of an eye, and two years have passed."
Ge Ying stood up, "Let’s go, once you take charge of Ningcui Cliff, I can completely relax."
She was already at the end of her years, and the sect no longer assigned her tasks.
The two left the grotto mansion, and green cloud-like qi spread beneath Ji An’s feet, enveloping them both.
Once the auspicious cloud ford, it ascended swiftly.
Even with an extra person, his speed was two to three tis faster than when he first learned to ride the cloud.
...
In less than half an hour, the green auspicious cloud landed halfway up Sunrise Peak.
The two stepped into the grand hall, and Jia Yu laughed and said:
"Junior Brother Ji finally decided to leave Red Fla Peak, not an easy feat."
He was now well aware of the other’s routine of leaving the Dao Field once a year.
Listening to the ancestor’s teachings, and stopping by the Treasure Pavilion to exchange for spiritual objects, he was truly a model of dedicated cultivation.
Ji An took out several storage bags, laughing as he said:
"From now on, I will be stationed at the Agricultural Hall. Brother, if you’re free, co find for a drink.
Also, help convert these resources into Small rits, and claim the benefits for Chao Origin Stage cultivators."
"I knew it, you wouldn’t co out unless there’s sothing."
Jia Yu deftly took out the resources from the storage bags, starting to weigh the points and record them.
"Thirty thousand jin of Tier Two Lower Grade pine nuts, three thousand Small rits;
Two thousand jin of Middle Grade pine nuts, two thousand Small rits..."
"Three hundred jin of Tier Two Lower-Grade Sword Bamboo Golden Leaf, nine thousand Small rits;
Thirty jin of Middle Grade Sword Bamboo Golden Leaf, six thousand Small rits, totaling sixty-six thousand Small rits."
He scratched his head and grinned:
"If I could have had such results back in the day, I probably would have been a Golden Core Stage cultivator!"
Jia Yu understood that this was only part of the yield after the other party paid the sect’s land rent.
At least he knew that Tier Two mulberry wine and Earth Spirit Fruit were rarely turned in for rits, and the Copper Patterned Mulberry and Jade Leaf Mulberry were directly traded with the Beast Taming Hall.
Roughly calculating, it should be eighty thousand Small rits in a year.
With such substantial harvests, the Chao Origin Stage alchemists and artifact refiners would need constant refining tasks.
What’s even more astounding is that this is not even the limit, as Red Fla Peak still has much potential to tap into.
With so many resources at hand, imagine how many pills and spirit objects that speed up Spirit Soul growth could be purchased! It could greatly accelerate the expansion of the Divine Mansion core and enhance cultivation progress.
Jia Yu picked up the storage bag, "I’ll go store the resources and then collect your benefits."
Ji An nodded slightly and said:
"Senior Brother, I have so many Small rits now, is there anywhere I can spend them?"
"I knew you’d ask, this year I specially applied for three extra Jade Radiance Pills and ten plates of Soul Incense for you, how do you plan to thank ?"
"Haha, I present two jars of Middle Grade Pine Nut Wine!"
"Two jars? That’s too little!"
Jia Yu shook his head like a rattle, holding up five fingers, "It’s gotta be this many!"
He knew the quantity and approximate yield of Tier Two Middle-Grade Red Cloud Pine at Red Fla Peak, enough to estimate how many pine nuts were brewed into spirit wine.
"Deal!"
