Chapter 408: Handing Over the Spiritual Herbs

"Enough, Junior Brother Ji, stop talking."

Just as Ji Zaixing was cursing and venting at Ji Daoming.

A middle-aged cultivator with a scholarly air stepped forward.

Stopping Ji Zaixing's relentless mockery.

Looking at Ji Zaixing and Ji Daoming, this person wore an expression of helplessness.

The verbal sparring between Ji Zaixing and Ji Daoming had become routine for the disciples of the Pill Hall.

If the situation weren't inappropriate, he wouldn't have wanted to intervene in their dispute.

"Hmph!"

Seeing someone stop him, Ji Zaixing did not continue his verbal assault.

Mainly because Ji Daoming made no reaction, making his scolding feel unsatisfying.

As for the reason Ji Zaixing was mocking Ji Daoming this time.

"There's no need to hang yourself on a single tree; it brings you no benefit whatsoever."

Only now, forty years have passed.

It is the kind of mission where you either get nothing or feast for thirty years once you succeed.

If he abandons this mission, he can only choose other resource-gathering tasks.

The resource-gathering missions for blessed lands are limited.

But cultivators like Ji Zaixing and Ji Daoming, who constantly bicker.

The Senior Brother Li mentioned by Ji Daoming could not help but continue to advise:

"Junior Brother Ji, you..."

Do you really want to abandon this mission?

This middle-aged cultivator was also very clear in his mind.

To be honest, verbal disputes do not actually violate the rules of the Profound Heaven Sect.

"Junior Brother Ji, if it really doesn't work out, why not switch to another mission?"

The reason he has never given up the resource-gathering mission for the Qingxuan Blessed Land.

Just as this Senior Brother Li continued to speak and persuade.

Ji Daoming suddenly became extremely agitated, excitement flashing in his eyes.

After Ji Zaixing stopped, he looked at Ji Daoming and advised:

The first time one completes a resource-gathering mission for a blessed land, the rewards are substantial.

Seeing Ji Zaixing stop.

Seeing that Ji Daoming still could not make up his mind.

After each mission is completed.

"Senior Brother Li, I will consider switching missions."

Ji Daoming's spiritual sense instinctively probed inside.

Ji Daoming showed hesitation in his eyes and finally spoke:

Now, all the third-tier blessed lands have someone assigned to them.

Previously, Ji Daoming brought back a large batch of spiritual herbs from the Qingxuan Blessed Land.

Hearing the other person's words.

Whether it was the contribution points directly awarded by the Pill Hall or the priority right to use the spiritual herbs he collected.

These are rewards that other same-tier missions cannot compare to.

Ji Daoming did not want to switch missions.

The resource-gathering mission for blessed lands.

This is also the reason why, over the past few decades.

The disciple token hanging at Ji Daoming's waist suddenly vibrated slightly.

That middle-aged cultivator sighed with relief in his heart.

After seeing the message transmitted within the token.

The resource-gathering mission for blessed lands.

As a disciple of the Pill Hall.

For a moment, Ji Daoming was also indecisive in his heart.

In Ji Daoming's view.

There are truly very few within the Profound Heaven Sect.

All of which can bring considerable benefits to the cultivators of the Pill Hall.

Unless absolutely necessary.

Not giving that Senior Brother Li a chance to speak.

Ji Daoming directly spoke to take his leave:

"Senior Brother Li, this junior has an urgent matter and must leave first."

Having finished speaking, ignoring the strange looks from Ji Zaixing and that Senior Brother Li.

Ji Daoming hurriedly left the Pill Hall.

Watching Ji Daoming's departing figure.

Ji Zaixing's fluctuating emotions instantly calmed down, and he thought to himself:

"Ji Daoming's skill has improved recently? Why doesn't he get angry no matter how I scold him?"

"Judging by his expression before he left, could the mission have taken a turn?"

"No, if the situation reverses, with my current cultivation, I certainly couldn't out-insult him."

Thinking this, Ji Zaixing's eyes darted.

After Ji Daoming's figure vanished, he also left the Pill Hall.

He planned to leave the sect for a while first, to avoid the锋芒 for now.

The insults he had hurled at Ji Daoming these past days must not give him a chance to return them.

Finally.

Only Brother Li, who was left utterly baffled, remained in place.

Watching the two figures depart, he shook his head and swayed.

After Ji Daoming left the Pill Hall,

he immediately set off at a gallop toward the Qingxuan Blessed Land.

After transferring through two teleportation arrays and flying for a distance,

Ji Daoming finally arrived at the Qingxuan Blessed Land he had longed for.

At this moment,

Ye Qingxuan was still leisurely drinking tea inside the stone pavilion.

Regarding Ji Daoming's arrival, Ye Qingxuan showed no reaction.

Outside the stone pavilion,

upon seeing Ye Qingxuan's figure with his own eyes, Ji Daoming immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Stepping up to the edge of the stone pavilion, Ji Daoming respectfully said:

"Senior Brother Ye, I have arrived!"

"Hmm!"

Ye Qingxuan gave a light hum, waved his hand, and tossed a storage bag to Ji Daoming.

"Inside here are the medicinal herbs produced by the Qingxuan Blessed Land over the past forty years."

These years, Ye Qingxuan had been in seclusion.

He had not carefully tallied the medicinal herb output of the 'Third-Rank Qingxuan Blessed Land'.

However, estimating based on the roughly ten-year cycle for Third-Rank medicinal herbs,

the storage bag Ye Qingxuan gave Ji Daoming contained medicinal herbs worth about four times the previous amount.

These medicinal herbs were more than enough for Ji Daoming to fulfill his duty.

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's words,

Ji Daoming was overjoyed and immediately flooded his spiritual sense into the storage bag to count.

Moments later, Ji Daoming spoke:

"Senior Brother, the total value of these medicinal herbs this time is four billion one hundred thirty-eight million contribution points."

"Does Senior Brother need anything exchanged? I, your junior brother, can bring it for you."

"No need."

Ye Qingxuan slowly shook his head.

He directly refused Ji Daoming's kindness.

For him, items below the Seventh Rank held little use.

As for Seventh-Rank heavenly treasures and earthly gems,

his cheap Master, Cen Zhe, had already opened the exchange permission for him.

If needed, he could exchange them himself.

However,

with the contribution points he had currently accumulated,

even if he wanted to exchange Seventh-Rank items, he could at most exchange a small amount of Seventh-Rank spirit mines.

That would not be of much help to him.

Seeing Ye Qingxuan refuse,

Ji Daoming said no more.

He bowed to Ye Qingxuan and said gratefully:

"This time, thank you, Senior Brother, for your成全."

Hearing Ji Daoming's words, Ye Qingxuan paid no mind and said casually:

"You need not thank me; I am merely responding to the sect's policy."

For him,

the medicinal herbs turned over to the Profound Heaven Sect were but a drop in the bucket.

He would not act against the grain just to keep these medicinal herbs.

Therefore, this time sending a message to Ji Daoming to turn over the medicinal herbs,

he was simply going with the flow.

Glancing at Ji Daoming,

Ye Qingxuan showed no intention of inviting him for a cup of tea.

He spoke directly:

"You may leave first; come back next time I send you a message."

"Yes, Senior Brother!"

Facing Ye Qingxuan's attitude, Ji Daoming felt no dissatisfaction.

In Ji Daoming's view,

Ye Qingxuan was now his God of Wealth.

Moreover, Ye Qingxuan was a Fortune Cultivator.

A Fortune Cultivator, after all! It was normal for his personality to be somewhat reclusive.

Ji Daoming stared at the storage bag in his hand, indicating he understood perfectly.

On the way back to the Pill Hall,

Ji Daoming recalled Ji Zaixing's attacks on him over the years and thought viciously:

"Ji Zaixing, now it is my turn to strike back. Just wait for my face-to-face show-off!"
