Chapter 1080: Chapter 590 The Three Meridians of the Five Elements (800 Votes for Extra) Chapter 1080: Chapter 590 The Three Meridians of the Five Elements (800 Votes for Extra) Within the Spirit Treasure Pavilion, the exchange of Foundation Building Pills had begun to proceed smoothly.

Regarding this, Chen Mobai also paid special attention.

He was truly uneasy about the customs of the Eastern Wilderness, fearing that someone might lose reason in the face of an opportunity that could transform a cultivator and allow them to ascend a great realm.

However, Chen Mobai’s concerns were unnecessary.

After all, the locals knew their own kind best.

Many of the disciples who had exchanged Foundation Building Pills didn’t return to their own cave dwellings for cultivation but went straight to rent the sect’s Cultivation Rooms.

These were set up by Chen Mobai in imitation of the practices at the Immortal Gate, especially opened to calm the spiritual energy for aiding the lower-ranking disciples in their cultivation when Zhou Shengqing had his “Nascent Soul Formation,” causing a vast surge of natural spiritual energy.

Each Cultivation Room was fortified with powerful restrictions by the sect’s Formation Division, and even Foundation Establishment Practitioners would need to spend considerable time to break them.

Many disciples at the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation who had obtained the Foundation Building Pill, after buying enough Fasting Pills and sparing no expense with their Storage Bags filled with all their possessions, rented the highest-grade Cultivation Rooms with the richest spiritual energy and plunged into seclusion for their breakthroughs.

After hearing about this, Chen Mobai called Yi Shaoqing, the head of the Formation Division, to direct the Array of Ten Thousand Woods to channel part of the spiritual energy circulating over Giant Tree Ridge into these Cultivation Rooms.

That way, if anyone truly made a breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, they would be able to immediately enjoy the concentration of Rank-3 spiritual energy.

There were also some disciples with profound backgrounds from the True Inheritance sects who, after exchanging for Foundation Building Pills, chose not to enter seclusion and consume them directly.

Instead, seeking to perfect their preparation, they continued consuming Spirit Rice, warming and nurturing their physical bodies, purifying their spiritual power, and tempering their Divine Sense according to the knowledge of Foundation Building imparted by Chen Mobai…

And these people were even more likely to succeed in Foundation Establishment.

Half a month later, Kong Shanxu from the Five Elements Sect arrived at Giant Tree Ridge.

In addition to him, there were two other Foundation Establishment Practitioners, Tan Rong of the Fire Vein and Ji Guanhai of the Water Vein.

Tan Rong was a beautiful woman with a fiery figure, while Ji Guanhai was a slender scholar.

Both were the personal disciples of Golden Core Cultivators, their status and Cultivation Level on par with the Vice Hall Masters of the Three Great Halls in the Divine Wood Sect.

The fact that all three of them had come together this time clearly showed the high regard in which the Five Elements Sect held the Foundation Building Pill.

“Yue Shidi, I hear that this time around, your sect’s Minister Zeng has refined a substantial quantity of Foundation Building Pills.”

The one receiving Kong Shanxu’s party was Yue Zutao. After hearing the other’s probing words, he didn’t deny it and simply nodded.

After all, in recent times, the Spirit Treasure Pavilion had been overflowing with ninth-layer Qi Cultivation disciples, frequently witnessing Divine Wood Sect disciples rushing over impatiently to exchange for Foundation Building Pills with ten thousand Contribution Points. This situation was not something they planned to conceal.

“Our Wind Rain Hamlet has some Rank-2 Monster Beast Inner Pills. Previously, we have been entrusting the Eastern Wilderness to help us refine them. I wonder if Minister Zeng has any availability…”

Ji Guanhai of the Water Vein spoke up. They presided over Yun Meng Ze, where demonic beast resources were the most abundant.

If King Zhou could lead hunts for three heads, they would surely have more, not fewer.

“That matter I need to discuss with the Sect Leader. However, Minister Zeng’s schedule for refining Foundation Building Pills has already been filled for the next two years. Even if the Sect Leader agrees, you will have to wait.”

After refining ten furnaces of Foundation Building Pills for the sect, Zeng Woyou had worked intensely for three whole years, turning what he initially regarded as the greatest honor of his life into something he was tired and bored of doing.

Now that King Zhou had provided the Alchemy Department with the job of refining three furnaces of Monster Beast Foundation Building Pills, Zeng Woyou really couldn’t muster his spirits anymore.

Chen Mobai gave Zeng Woyou half a year’s rest. However, the auxiliary materials for the Foundation Building Pills were still being collected orderly by the sect. Moreover, at his suggestion, Yan Jinye, his former assistant, received an opportunity to refine Monster Beast Foundation Building Pills.

If there was only one person within the sect capable of refining Foundation Building Pills, it would be troublesome for Divine Wood Sect should anything happen to Zeng Woyou, as they would have to seek help from Back to Sky Valley again.

Yan Jinye was very excited about this chance.

As an Alchemist who had received Zeng Woyou’s true teachings, she had been involved in every batch of Foundation Building Pills within the sect.

She was already thoroughly familiar with the process of refining such elixirs, only lacking the practical opportunity.

However, with Foundation Building Pills being so important, even Zeng Woyou did not dare to decide on his own. Only with the go-ahead from Sect Master Chen could she assume such responsibility.

Because the Alchemists in the Eastern Wilderness all grew through a series of failed attempts, Yan Jinye’s first batch of Monster Beast Foundation Building Pills was almost guaranteed not to succeed.

Knowing this, Chen Mobai made a point of calling Yan Jinye over to encourage her, telling her to boldly proceed and not fear failure, with the sect there to support her.

With Chen Mobai’s words, Yan Jinye, who had initially been somewhat nervous, completely relaxed.

Today was the day the Divine Wood Sect handed over the Foundation Building Pills to the Five Elements Sect.

Chen Mobai did not make an appearance, leaving Yue Zutao and Luo Xue’er to manage the exchange.

Inside the Reward Virtue Hall, Kong Shanxu’s party looked at the fifteen Foundation Building Pills, each individually packaged in transparent Jade Vials, with great curiosity.

“I’ve never seen a jade vial made of such material; from what sort of ore is it refined?”

As a Foundation Establishment Practitioner of the Earth Vein, Kong Shanxu had encountered most of the ores and jades in the Eastern Wilderness, but he had never come across glass, a man-made substance.

“It’s an ancient recipe that Sect Master obtained from the Longevity Sect. It can be used as a substitute for jade and is even more convenient for inscribing spiritual patterns and restrictions. During the smelting process, they can be impressed into the body of the vial. Once formed, it only needs to be activated with spiritual power to maintain constant temperature, coldness, and other effects.”

This type of glass vial mainly came about because Chen Mobai previously ordered the conversion of all sect inheritances into jade slips, which resulted in a shortage of the jade traditionally used to store elixirs and precious plants within the Divine Wood Sect.

Yue Zutao brought up this issue, hoping to temporarily delay the conversion of inheritances into jade slips, because without the jade to seal and store them, the effectiveness of elixirs would dissipate too rapidly.

However, after hearing this, Chen Mobai directly downloaded the instructions for glass production from the Immortal Gate Network.

This was the alternative to jade chosen by the Immortal Gate, and if powdered spirit stone was added during the refining process, the effects could even surpass those of jade.

This powdered spirit stone, also known as Spiritual Extract, is nothing but crushed dry spirit stones. The Immortal Gate generally adds only a little to enable the storage of spiritual power, facilitating the inscription of spiritual patterns and forming restrictions.

But in the Eastern Wilderness, these are considered waste materials.

After obtaining the glass production technique from Chen Mobai, the Artifact Refining Department and the Spirit Vein Division collaborated to research for a year and soon replicated the process.

Although the craftsmanship is not as standardized as that of the Immortal Gate, the addition of powdered spirit stone here is more generous, almost over half the proportion, leading to effects that greatly outperform even the best glass from the Immortal Gate.

Kong Shanxu and the two others were envious when they heard this.

The fact that Chen Mobai was the Saint Heir of the Longevity Sect had already spread throughout the Eastern Wilderness, and everyone attributed his rapid cultivation to the inheritance he received from this ancient and powerful sect.

No one expected that he would now selflessly share these remarkable items with the Divine Wood Sect; the fortune of the Wood Vein was indeed remarkable!

In their envy, they opened each of the fifteen glass vials to inspect every Foundation Building Pill.

Among them, Tan Rong and Ji Guanhai were mainly concerned with the elixirs, but Kong Shanxu kept examining the glass vials, wondering if he could replicate the manufacturing process once he returned.

“There’s no problem with the elixirs, so let’s divide them up.”

In the presence of Yue Zutao and Luo Xue’er, the Foundation Establishment Practitioners from the three veins of the Five Elements Sect each took five Foundation Building Pills.

Watching this scene, Yue Zutao’s mind stirred slightly, wondering if the sect could spare two more Foundation Building Pills when the Jade Marrow Golden Mushrooms matured next time, and carry out a ‘Two Peaches Kill Three Scholars’ scheme!

“Brother Yue, Sister Luo, we need to urgently take these Foundation Building Pills back. Might we have the opportunity to meet Sect Master Chen before we leave?”

“That’s unfortunate timing, Brother Jia Songyang from Golden Cliff has just arrived today for the Foundation Building Pills, and the Sect Master is currently meeting with him personally.”

Upon hearing Yue Zutao’s words, Kong Shanxu and the others twitched slightly at the corner of their mouths, feeling somewhat snubbed, but knowing Golden Cliff and Divine Wood Sect were close as siblings, indeed they could not compare with each other’s factions.

“What a pity.”

Yet outwardly, the three dared not express any dissatisfaction with the Golden Core Cultivator and, after speaking, they requested to use the Divine Wood Sect’s Teleportation Array to leave.

“No problem.”

Kong Shanxu was the first to leave. Tan Rong inquired about Ding Ying; when Chen Mobai had led a patrol of the Eastern Wilderness, the two had interacted and could be considered friends.

“Sister Ding is teaching at the Longevity Academy. If you wish to find her, you need to go to Northern Abyss City in Rock Country.”

As a woman, Luo Xue’er had more interaction with Tan Rong, who was still unaware of the Longevity Academy. After the explanation, she could not help but express her amazement.

“Immortal cultivation can also involve education?”

Qi cultivation focuses on enhancing one’s own Spiritual Root characteristics, with each person being unique. Even within the sects, the norm is to provide guidance for entry, give you the cultivation techniques, and let you comprehend for yourself.

The idea of a scholarly mansion for cultivation like the Longevity Academy, did it really work for cultivators?

“If Sister Tan has the time, you can visit the Longevity Academy. This year, the first cohort of students will graduate, and the Sect Master, as the principal, will be there in person too.”

After hearing Luo Xue’er’s words, Tan Rong felt intrigued. She had long been curious about Chen Mobai, the number one Sect Master of the Eastern Wilderness, having missed two opportunities to meet him.

Visiting the Longevity Academy would be an opportunity to help the sect learn if this scholarly approach to cultivation was effective.

Moreover, she had the acquaintance of Ding Ying there.

“Sister Luo, I need to get these Foundation Building Pills back to our sect first.”

However, Tan Rong didn’t forget her mission here; Luo Xue’er nodded and personally escorted her to the teleportation array hall at Giant Tree Ridge.

Shenmu Hall.

Chen Mobai was talking with Jia Songyang who was still somewhat excited, his right hand occasionally patting the storage bag at his waist with 26 Foundation Building Pills inside.

Since Golden Cliff became independent, they hadn’t seen so many Foundation Building Pills.

Indeed, entrusting these matters to the Divine Wood Sect was the right move; now Foundation Building Pills could even be produced in batches.

After a long while, Jia Songyang recovered from his excitement, and didn’t waste the opportunity to seek guidance from Chen Mobai on the Red Flame Sword Jue.

During this time, two individuals arrived at Shenmu Hall.

One was Yue Zutao, who brought Ji Guanhai from the Five Elements Sect’s Water Vein to this place.
