“Yes, Sect Leader!”
However, even so, the Divine Wood Sect’s Foundation Building Pills still amounted to 45.
This number had already exceeded any previous year!
“Sect Leader, besides the distribution to the twenty-four True Disciples, are the remaining 21 Foundation Building Pills to be placed on the shelves of Spirit Treasure Pavilion for all disciples to exchange?”
Chen Mobai had already devised a plan in his heart that would satisfy the sect’s candidates for True Disciple status while also providing opportunities to more Qi Practitioners.
“First, put 10 pills on the shelf for those who are candidates to exchange for True Discipleship.”
“Then, each year, the first place winner of the sect’s grand competition will be awarded one pill, and after ten years, a new batch of Foundation Building Pills will be perfected.”
“In the sect, if a Qi Cultivating Disciple exchanges for a Foundation Building Pill, then they cannot participate in the sect’s grand competition for the next ten years.”
Although Divine Wood Sect was known as a major sect in the Eastern Wilderness, in reality, many rules had loopholes, like this grand competition. If a True Disciple failed to successfully use the Foundation Building Pill for the first time and was able to participate again after their injuries healed, they were essentially still considered True Disciples.
In the past, because it took ten years for a new batch of Foundation Building Pills to be refined, and Divine Wood Sect wanted to choose the most outstanding disciples, they encouraged this attitude. Only those who were truly too old and were deemed a waste of Foundation Building Pills were discreetly persuaded to step down.
But now, according to Chen Mobai’s new regulation, if the first-place winner of the sect’s grand competition could obtain a Foundation Building Pill, these True Disciples might continue to compete to obtain a second or even a third pill.
Therefore, he directly implemented a ten-year cooldown period for exchanging a Foundation Building Pill.
This would also give ordinary Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer disciples a chance to see hope.
Whether it was any system, without a channel for advancement, no matter how large the force, it would eventually become more and more rigid and weaken.
Chen Mobai was transforming the Divine Wood Sect into a minor Immortal Gate step by step!
“Sect Leader, what about the remaining one Foundation Building Pill?”
Luo Xue’er, as the Hall Master of the Reward Virtue Hall, was responsible for placing these Foundation Building Pills into the sect’s treasury and personally supervising them. If they were to be issued in the future, she would also have to personally release them one by one.
Therefore, she needed to be clear about the destination of each and every pill.
“That one will be reserved for the chief of the Longevity Academy!”
Chen Mobai’s words brought visible joy to E Yun, who had been silent until then.
The assembly inside Shenmu Hall, upon hearing this, some opened their mouths as if to speak, but then stopped themselves.
However, when they considered that Longevity Academy was personally established by Chen Mobai, who also served as its nominal headmaster, it was regarded as a benefit for the Sect Leader’s direct lineage.
In the end, everyone fell silent, implying their consent.
“Sect Leader, over the past few years, our sect’s cultivators have slain many demonic beasts in Yun Meng Ze, including three that were Rank-2 peak level beasts, having formed inner cores suitable for refining Foundation Building Pills.”
At this point, Zhou Wangshen stood up and reported his accomplishments from the past few years with enthusiasm.
He was in charge of Sky Country, the port nation of Yun Meng Ze and, after reaching an agreement with the Nanxuan Sect’s Golden Core Cultivators, he shifted his attention to Yun Meng Ze. In collaboration with the sect, they assisted the Foundation Establishment Practitioners from Wind Rain Hamlet in hunting many Rank-2 demonic beasts.
Among them, what could be presented as achievements to the sect were naturally the inner cores of the demonic beasts used for refining Foundation Building Pills.
When demonic beasts grow to Rank-2 top grade, they can form an inner core, but only after passing through a Heavenly Tribulation do they truly become Rank-3.
“Minister Zeng, check if we can refine the demonic beast Foundation Building Pills.”
No sooner had Chen Mobai spoken than Zeng Woyou stood up and began to carefully inspect the matter.
If the elemental energy in some monster beast inner pills was too depleted, they would not serve as suitable main ingredients.
“All can be used. We estimate that we can refine 9 demonic beast Foundation Building Pills, but we would need to prepare materials for three furnaces, which is somewhat wasteful.”
After checking, Zeng Woyou spoke calmly, completely forgetting the eager excitement he felt more than twenty years ago when the sect tasked him with refining demonic beast Foundation Building Pills, putting aside all his other duties to focus on it.
“Very good, Vice Hall Master Luo, record a merit for nephew Zhou!”
Chen Mobai was generous in his praise for Zhou Wangshen’s achievements, and even awarded him three thousand contribution points on the spot.
“`
Zhou Wangshen was feeling proud and spirited. After completing his report and returning to the line-up, he even purposefully walked a circle in front of E Yun and Hong He, their attitudes causing the two men to frown slightly.
But three Rank-2 inner cores meant three more opportunities to refine demonic beast Foundation Establishment Pills, and indeed, this merit was enormous during peace times.
It seemed that when it came to this year’s achievements of the Town Guards, Zhou Wangshen was going to be in first place.
Just as the other four countries’ Town Guards were thinking along these lines, E Yun stood out and said, “Sect Leader, your disciple has something to report!”
Chen Mobai: “Speak!”
“Reporting to the Sect Leader, back when our Sect fought the great battle against Shake Mountain Peak, Brother Yue, amidst the erosion of the earth veins by the poison gas, rescued some precious Spiritual Medicine seedlings, including the Jade Marrow Golden Mushroom.”
“These Jade Marrow Golden Mushroom seedlings were transplanted to the Spirit Fields of Five Willows Mountain and have been looked after by our Sect’s Spirit Plant Masters for twenty years without interruption. Finally, they used the pure earth veins to remove all the residual poison.”
“Now these Jade Marrow Golden Mushroom seedlings can normally absorb earth qi, water vapor, and spiritual energy to grow. According to observations by the Rock Country’s Sect division of Spirit Plants, it is estimated that they will mature enough to be used for refining Foundation Building Pills in five years.”
After saying this, E Yun gave a respectful salute towards Yue Zutao, who was standing by Chen Mobai’s side.
During the war back then, even Chen Mobai was preoccupied with fighting. It was Yue Zutao who, after the rupture of the Mountain Peak Grand Formation by the Bead that Breaks Meridians, was the first to lead his cultivators to the herb fields to rescue the precious Jade Marrow Golden Mushrooms and other herbs.
He was also the one who later cleared the Spirit Fields on Five Willows Mountain, transplanting and nurturing these herbs.
When Chen Mobai was preparing for Core Formation, Yue Zutao even took a term as the Town Guard of Rock Country. Later, when constructing and developing Northern Abyss City, he did not forget to send a Spirit Plant Master to care for these poison-infested herbs on Five Willows Mountain.
All the way until E Yun’s time, for twenty years they took turns assigning people to look after them without cease, which finally bore fruit.
In response, Yue Zutao merely nodded lightly, indicating that this was something he ought to do.
For the Eastern Wilderness, apart from eliminating opponents after the war, the next goal was to snatch inheritance, treasure valuable herbs, Spirit Veins, and so on.
Yue Zutao promptly rescuing the Jade Marrow Golden Mushrooms and other herbs after the Large Formation at Shake Mountain Peak was broken by the Bead that Breaks Meridians was considered normal behavior.
However, the subsequent establishment of the Spirit Fields and the persistent care in helping the herbs expel and purify the poison was an indisputable great contribution.
“Very good, very good, this contribution is even greater. The two of you each will be rewarded with a major merit,” said Chen Mobai, lavishing praise on both Yue Zutao and E Yun.
Compared to Zhou Wangshen’s one-off deal of hunting demonic beasts and seizing their inner cores, by plundering the herb fields of Shake Mountain Peak, and after expelling the poison, they were able to provide a continuous supply of Jade Marrow Golden Mushrooms.
Although there were only two or three blossoms every ten years, for the Divine Wood Sect, it was the hope for another ten or twenty disciples to advance to Foundation Establishment.
Perhaps in the future, a Golden Core Cultivator would emerge from among them.
Amidst Chen Mobai’s hearty laughter, he awarded Yue Zutao and E Yun fifty thousand Contribution Points on the spot.
Everyone agreed that they should have been given even more.
“E Yun is young and promising!”
“This year’s Town Guard achievements should be led by him!”
“After the Sect Leader steps down, it looks like he has the biggest hope!”
Hearing the undisguised discussions of the older Foundation Establishment Practitioners from the Three Halls and Twelve Divisions, Zhou Wangshen, who had just been feeling proud, suddenly lost his smile and lowered his head.
After the Sect meeting ended, the Spirit Treasure Pavilion was immediately besieged by many Sect Disciples, becoming so crowded that not a drop of water could leak through.
All those who met the conditions, whether they were True Disciples, True Disciple candidates, or even some Qi Cultivators at the Ninth Layer, came over wanting to exchange for Foundation Building Pills.
Some with better-informed connections among the True Disciples were naturally calm; but many candidates for True Disciple were a mixture of shock, joy, and worry.
They did not know how many Foundation Building Pills the Sect would put on the shelves, nor did they know whether any would be left by the time it was their turn.
Moments later, some left laughing, while many others were clutching their chests in despair, regretting why they had not advanced another round during the Sect’s grand competition.
