"Thank you." ng Zihua said and heaved a sigh of relief.
Seeing this, Jiang Yue chuckled.
"There is no need to be so serious." He said.
"The red jade fruits have also been distributed." She continued.
"How?" Yu Nianzhen questioned.
"We exchanged them for one thousand contribution points per fruit. Of course, all the paynts are deferred until after the people advance to the reincarnation realm."
"Has anyone advanced?" Jiang Yue asked and ng Zihua nodded.
"Three have advanced and already left the mountain."
After hearing this, Jiang Yue couldn’t help but be relieved.
The red jade fruits were acquired after putting in a lot of effort.
Although he and Yu Nianzhen didn’t use them, it was good to hear that their efforts were already showing results.
"More people should be able to advance in the next twenty years."
"We have sent back so pills, talismans, and formation disks. How is the research going?" Yu Nianzhen asked.
Hearing this, ng Zihua sighed.
Generally, it was extrely difficult to deduce a formula from the end result.
Although several masters had researched for many years, progress was slow and the results weren’t good.
"In terms of alchemy, there are no results." ng Zihua stated and Yu Nianzhen nodded.
Of all the masteries, alchemy was the most difficult.
Although he and Jiang Yue sent back many pills for research, they weren’t optimistic.
"We still need to find an alchemy inheritance." Jiang Yue said with a frown on his face.
"It’s necessary." Yu Nianzhen agreed.
Cultivators could live without talismans and formations.
However, it was difficult to protect themselves without appropriate weapons or make progress without using pills.
Thinking of weapons, Yu Nianzhen looked at ng Zihua and asked.
"What about weaponry research? How is the progress?"
"Weaponry research is going well." ng Zihua said with a smile on her face.
Since there was a complete weapon refining inheritance, the involved masters had an easier ti.
After many years of research, two masters could already refine profound rank weapons.
Unfortunately, ti was short and the variety of weapons they could refine was not a lot.
"What weapons can they refine?" Jiang Yue asked.
"Both can refine swords. At the mont, one is working on refining whips and the other is focusing on gloves."
Hearing this, Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen couldn’t help but be impressed.
Since their Cangxing mountain only had a whip art and a palm art, it was best to prepare weapons that could enhance these skills.
For ng Zihua’s ability to prioritise and act decisively, the two were naturally relieved.
"How is their progress? Will they make it before the event?" Jiang Yue asked.
"It’s highly likely." ng Zihua said and nodded.
"That’s good." Jiang Yue sighed and looked at Yu Nianzhen.
"What about talismans and formations?"
"There is a formation inheritance so there is so progress. However, no one has managed to arrange a sixth-level formation or engrave a sixth-level formation disk."
Hearing this, Jiang Yue wasn’t surprised.
Compared to the gap between a fourth-level and fifth-level formation, the gap between a fifth-level and sixth-level formation was wider.
Most importantly, the foundation requirent to comprehend sixth-level formations was extrely severe.
It was for this reason that Jiang Yue contributed a fifth-level formation inheritance to the Cangxing Mountain.
Without such an inheritance, other formation masters would find it extrely difficult to make progress.
’I shouldn’t expect our Cangxing mountain to have another sixth-level formation master within one hundred years.’ He thought and sighed.
"As for talismans, there is so progress." ng Zihua said and continued.
"The talisman map of most of the talismans you sent back can’t be deduced yet. However, there is so progress on the communication talismans."
When Yu Nianzhen heard that, he couldn’t help but be happy.
At the mont, many things needed to be coordinated.
Without a communication talisman, contacting others was too ti-wasting.
"How much progress?" Jiang Yue asked.
"The talisman master of my BlueStar Treasures Pavilion can draw a useable fifth-level talisman." ng Zihua said.
Hearing this, Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen were both excited.
"How many communication talismans are available?"
"Only ten." ng Zihua said with a frown on her face.
"What’s the matter?" Jiang Yue asked.
"Most of the talisman materials have already been used up and there is no way to replenish." She said.
"We can only rely on trading with other mountains." Jiang Yue said and also frowned.
"For now, the available communication talismans won’t be sold in the shops. Let’s divide them amongst the core people of our mountain."
"I understand." ng Zihua said and nodded.
"Next, we need to visit the arena." Yu Nianzhen said and stood up.
Seeing this, Jiang Yue and ng Zihua also stood up.
"Fellow Daoist ng, please follow us to the site."
"Okay."
After that, the three left the Cangxing mountain and rushed towards the vicinity of the third mine.
When they arrived, Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue imdiately saw the difference compared to eighty years ago.
"Fellow Daoist Wei has taken charge of the arena. He will also be responsible for guarding when the event starts."
"Makes sense." Jiang Yue nodded.
Wei Ge was not only a young genius but he was also the young leader of the Border Guards faction.
Most importantly, his Taoist title was the World Guarding Master.
From this title and his exploits on the foreign devils’ battlefield, it was clear to see that he was the most qualified person to deal with the arena.
Although Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen were not very familiar with the person, the little they knew about him was enough to make them relieved.
"Let’s find fellow Daoist Wei." ng Zihua suggested and the other two imdiately agreed.
Soon after, the three found Wei Ge instructing so foreign cultivators.
"Unfortunately, our Cangxing mountain doesn’t have enough people so we could only recruit foreign cultivators to help with the building." ng Zihua explained in a low voice.
"How are we paying them?" Jiang Yue couldn’t help but wonder.
After all, their Cangxing mountain was poor.
They didn’t have many reincarnation stones or speciality cultivation resources that could be exchanged for labour.
"According to the initial plan, our construction is divided into three aspects." ng Zihua started and quickly continued when she saw the other two were paying attention.
"The first aspect is the martial stage where the challenges will take place. Our goal is to make the stage hard to destroy."
"The second aspect is the spectator seats."
At this, ng, Zihua sighed before she continued.
"Although most of the spectators will be in the first and second levels of the reincarnation realm, we can’t rule out that higher realm cultivators will attend."
"Originally, we thought about preparing nine layers of seats but eventually discarded the idea. In the end, we decided on an auction-like type of seating arrangent."
"It’s a good choice." Yu Nianzhen suddenly said.
"We can allow all challenge participants, deputy mountain masters and mountain masters to enter the arena without charge. However, everyone else has to pay a small fee." ng Zihua said.
"A small daily charge is the best option." Jiang Yue suggested.
After all, the challenge would go on for one hundred years.
If the spectators were asked to pay a one hundred years charge, they may find it difficult especially if they didn’t plan to watch the whole event.
Considering that, it was best to charge daily or implent tiered charges.
"Other than the martial stage and spectator stands, there is the trade area. Our hope is that foreign cultivators can rent shops to sell their goods during the event."
"By saying all this, you an to say that so of the stores have already been rented." Yu Nianzhen narrowed his eyes and asked.
"Exactly." ng Zihua said with a beautiful smile on her lips.
"When the work first started, we were at a loss because we didn’t have enough resources. In the end, we built a trading area first."
"Shops are easy to build and don’t require special resources or labour." Yu Nianzhen said and nodded in approval.
"How many shops have been built and how many have been leased?" Jiang Yue asked.
"We built twenty thousand shops and most have already been reserved. The reincarnation stones earned from this were diverted to building the other places."
"My fellow Daoists have worked hard." Jiang Yue said and sighed.
Over the years, he felt he and Yu Nianzhen had worked hard for the Cangxing world.
However, when he encountered ng Zihua and Wei Ge, he felt that he and Yu Nianzhen may have slacked a little.
"It’s what we should do." ng Zihua said.
Soon after, Wei Ge finished speaking to the foreign cultivators and walked towards the three.
"I have seen the mountain master, deputy mountain master, and fellow Daoist ng." He said.
"Fellow Daoist Wei has worked hard." Jiang Yue said and Yu Nianzhen nodded.
"Fellow Daoists, please follow to my portable cave." Wei Ge said and imdiately led the way.
