Chapter 222: Clearing the spoils, a great harvest

~16 min read 3,161 words

"Hello, Senior Li!"

"Is that you, Huiniang? Are you here to find Luo Chen?"

"Yes, the Society Master notified me to come over today."

Because they rented the cave together, the three Foundation Establishment cultivators from Dahe Square were very close, almost on the same cliff wall.

Li Yixian, who was just about to go out, happened to run into Sima Huiniang, who was coming over.

The two exchanged a few words, and Sima Huiniang hurried into Luo Chen's cave.

Looking at her capable back.

Li Yixian couldn't help but feel envious.

If the Li family also had such a person who could manage everything inside and out in an orderly manner, it would be great.

She herself wouldn't have to be so busy with the trivial matters of the Li family before the cave was even warm.

Li Ao was ultimately too young, and his realm was not enough to take on responsibilities.

Luo Chen was relaxed; with Sima Huiniang there, many things didn't need to be done personally.

"Perhaps, I can consider letting Little Ao move into the cave to establish his foundation early."

"In that way, I can also put down the trivial matters and cultivate with all my strength?"

Thinking of the Luotian Society's abundance of talent, Li Yixian felt even more envious.

Min Longyu, an expert in formations, also joined.

The strength of the Luotian Society had undoubtedly been improved once again.

"Not just Little Ao, the other clansmen also need to improve their strength."

"Must look up to the Luotian Society!"

When Li Yixian envied Luo Chen.

Inside the cave, Sima Huiniang was taking out the account book, introducing the assets of the Luotian Society to Luo Chen in extreme detail.

"Because that battle at Gaoling Plains was an encounter battle plus a breakout battle, many participating cultivators didn't have time to collect spoils during the battle."

"Therefore, most of the spoils were finally collected and handed over."

"The specific reward and punishment standards haven't been set yet. However, Hall Master Murong has already recorded the corresponding merits in the book."

"After we clear things up here, it will be up to you, Society Master, to decide whether to execute them."

Luo Chen nodded.

He took the account book from Sima Huiniang's hand and read it seriously.

Unlike the battle with the Fu family and the Battle of Mount Xiaohuan.

The spoils of this sudden battle at Gaoling Plains were all collected after cleaning the battlefield after the battle.

It does not rule out that some people secretly hid them, but 90% of them were within the range he could absolutely control.

On the first page of the account book, the number of storage bags was counted.

A total of seventy-five!

"So many?" Luo Chen asked curiously.

Sima Huiniang shook her head, "Actually, there are fewer. When the Dajiang Gang cultivators fled, they took many away. Some were severely damaged during the battle and could not be used. After the final count, only these seventy-five remained."

Seventy-five, that's not a small number!

If strictly calculated according to the market price of ten thousand spirit stones, this is a huge sum of money.

It's just that Sima Huiniang told him not-so-good news.

"The price of storage bags here in Tianlan Immortal City is very cheap!"

"Oh?" Luo Chen raised his eyebrows.

Sima Huiniang explained, "When I took people out for a stroll yesterday, Liuzi introduced me to a Foundation Establishment Senior from the Ten Thousand Treasure Building. He said that if we buy more than a hundred storage bags at once, we can enjoy the sect price of three thousand per unit."

Hiss!

Even knowing that storage bags were seriously overpriced, Luo Chen didn't expect it to be this cheap.

His gaze flickered, and Luo Chen realized one thing.

It seems that since the war between the two major Nascent Soul sects, the Ten Thousand Treasure Building... no, Tianfan City!

The Ten Thousand Treasure Building is backed by another Nascent Soul major sect outside the Yuding Domain, Tianfan City.

In this war between the two major Nascent Soul sects in the Yuding Domain, Tianfan City seems to be exceptionally active!

During the Dahe Square period, a large number of magic treasures manufactured by Tianfan City flowed out from the Zhenlong Black Market.

Like the sound-transmitting paper crane magic treasure, they were mass-produced.

Now, it seems that even storage bags are being sold in batches.

The target of the sale is not just the seven sects of Yuding, but also small forces like their Luotian Society.

"Also, war wealth is always the most profitable; such opportunities are rare in a hundred years."

"Tianfan City is not stupid... hmm?"

Faintly, Luo Chen realized a possibility.

Could it be that this war initiated by the Luoyun Sect itself has the support of Tianfan City behind it?

"In terms of spirit stones, the number is very huge, as much as 130, 00!"

"Low-grade spirit stones account for the majority, but the counted mid-grade spirit stones also have three hundred. My opinion is..."

Sima Huiniang's report came to his ears.

Luo Chen woke up abruptly from his terrifying speculation.

What does the scheming between the major sects have to do with him?

With his strength at the second level of Foundation Establishment, he simply cannot participate.

The most urgent task is to manage his own side well!

"130, 00!"

Luo Chen pursed his lips, his eyes full of excitement.

This is undoubtedly a huge sum, even exceeding the 50, 00 he has now.

Well, only 50, 00 left; yesterday he rented the cave and paid three years of rent in one breath.

I have to say, war wealth is truly damn profitable!

This is without calculating the possibility that the three storage bags of Wang Haichao, Tushan, and Huo Hu contain a large amount of spirit stones.

If that were added, I fear the amount would soar even higher.

If it were a crazy cultivator, I fear they would have already frantically wanted to fight a few more such wars.

But Luo Chen quickly suppressed this inappropriate thought.

In an encounter battle, the Luotian Society lost more than half of its cultivators.

And there was Zeng Wen, an old friend who died inside to protect his wife and children.

Luo Chen does not want to start a war lightly.

He wants to cultivate quietly.

"There are over a thousand other magic treasures, most of which are intact, and many are incomplete, currently all vacant."

"The rest are countless pills, talismans, magic clothes, materials, and various sundries."

"The collected cultivation techniques and secret arts total over a hundred, but most are identical. After sorting, there are only over thirty, among which five are Tier 2..."

"In total, these are all."

"The belongings of our fallen cultivators, those with families, have already been taken back. The rest are all counted in the previous account book."

"Oh, by the way, there are three alchemy insights, I specially brought them over."

The miscellaneous reports lasted for a long time.

That is, Luo Chen has experienced many such things and is already used to it.

Change to another Foundation Establishment True Person, I fear they would be dizzy from listening.

Taking the three alchemy insights from Sima Huiniang's hand, Luo Chen flipped through them roughly.

Most are insights from Tier 1 alchemists, not very outstanding.

However, he kept a heart for the two Tier 1 pill formulas recorded on them.

"Can be put into the Alchemy Hall as a foundation."

"When I have free time, I can also take a look, discard the dross, and take the essence!"

A slight smile.

Luo Chen is very satisfied.

"Huiniang, you did a great job."

A smile also appeared on Sima Huiniang's face.

"Everything is what I should do!"

Luo Chen smiled and shook his head, "There is nothing that should or shouldn't be done; the world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit. You have done so excellently, I should naturally have some rewards."

He said it very naturally.

But in Sima Huiniang's heart, waves were born.

Looking at Luo Chen's gentle smile, Sima Huiniang thought:

"I am not just for profit; the grace of saving my life, you don't mention it, but I cannot forget it!"

It's just that these words, just think about them in your heart, no need to put them on your lips.

Everything can be expressed by practical actions.

The quiet Sima Huiniang made Luo Chen a bit uncomfortable; he still wanted to see some excited feedback from the other party.

But this is also good; not showing joy or anger in the face shows that the other party has indeed grown a lot.

"I have observed that among the ninth-level Qi Refining members of the society, you and Duan Feng are the closest to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining."

"Your daily cultivation cannot be interrupted."

"If you reach the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, that Foundation Establishment Pill will belong to you. In addition, when establishing the foundation, I will protect your path with all my strength, and even this Tier 2 cave can be provided for your use."

Hearing these words.

The woman who was calm before couldn't help but show an excited expression.

Is this a promise?

Foundation Establishment Pill!

The full-strength protection of a Foundation Establishment True Person, and even the Tier 2 cave can be used by her.

This is what a wonderful thing.

When she was a rogue cultivator back then, she never thought of such a wonderful thing.

At that time, just thinking about collecting the Foundation Establishment spiritual medicine made life complete.

Who could have thought that life's encounters would have such earth-shaking changes.

Plop!

Without any hesitation, Sima Huiniang knelt on one knee, her long hair hanging in front of her.

"Huiniang thanks the Society Master!"

Luo Chen smiled slightly; it seems the cultivation of calmness is still not home!

However, under these conditions.

Indeed, no Qi Refining cultivator can remain calm.

"Alright, get up!"

"Next, follow me to Ice Lan Palace."

After speaking, he stood up and walked out.

Sima Huiniang followed without hesitation.

Looking at Luo Chen's back, Sima Huiniang's heart fluctuated.

"Meeting him is perhaps the luckiest thing in my life!"

Out of the cave.

Luo Chen activated the formation to cover it up.

Without his permission, others cannot open the cave.

Unless the lease expires and the rent is not paid on time, the Ice Fortress cultivators who are on duty in Tianlan Immortal City will violently break in.

Pinching a spiritual incantation, a white cloud condensed under his feet.

Luo Chen waved his hand.

"Come up!"

Sima Huiniang carefully jumped up; the feet were soft and weak, and the whole person was trembling.

The white cloud floated, flying slowly down the mountain.

The huge waterfall smashed down from the sky to the earth, making a rumbling sound.

Beside his ear, there was Luo Chen's voice transmission, clearly entering his ears.

"The Cloud Driving Technique is spiritual energy turning into clouds, a spell derived from the spiritual power cloud group in the body during the ninth-level Qi Refining period."

"Stepping on it, there is no need to resist."

"Attach spiritual power to both feet, and use this to contact the cloud group, it will be like stepping on the earth, thick and firm."

Sima Huiniang followed suit.

After a while, the feeling of being weak and unsupported disappeared, and she stood steadily on the cloud group.

Until this time, she had time to look back.

That silver dragon, falling from the nine heavens, was so magnificent.

The many caves hidden in it were like immortal resorts.

"No need to envy."

"After you establish your foundation, I will additionally improve your treatment. By then, it will be easy for you to rent a cave here yourself."

Sima Huiniang pursed her lips and nodded gently.

The corner of her eye looked at Luo Chen's side face, sword eyebrows and star eyes, eyes shining with spirit.

Less of the solemnity and severity of the period when he came out of Dahe Square, and more of a calm and free-spiritedness.

It seems that someone was looking at him, and Luo Chen turned his head.

Sima Huiniang opened her mouth unnaturally and asked casually:

"Society Master, why are we going to Ice Lan Palace?"

"Why?"

Luo Chen raised the corners of his mouth, "To rent a piece of land."

"Senior Luo Chen, you are here!"

Before entering Ice Lan Palace, a sweet voice came from afar.

Then, she saw this little girl Shi Lan swinging her high ponytail and running over in small steps.

When she reached Luo Chen's side, she blinked her big eyes and stared at Luo Chen, as if afraid he would run away.

And her behavior naturally fell into Sima Huiniang's eyes.

It seems that the other party already knew Luo Chen's intention?

"This is Sima Huiniang, President of my Luotian Society." Luo Chen pointed to the side and introduced simply.

Shi Lan looked at Sima Huiniang in surprise.

"Summarizing and deciding is President, but why not call it Sect Master? Managing the portal of a sect."

Luo Chen shook his head, "My Luotian Society is a small family, how can it be called a sect."

"Senior is joking, you are so young and have achieved Foundation Establishment, that Core Formation stage is just around the corner. By then, choosing a mountain to build a sect is just a matter of morning and evening!"

This little girl, her flattery is quite good!

Shi Lan patted a horse's butt, and then enthusiastically introduced herself to Sima Huiniang:

"President Sima, my name is Shi Lan, an Ice Fortress disciple. In the future, if the Luotian Society needs anything from me, just find me!"

"Then I won't be polite in the future, and I will bother you a lot."

"Haha, you are welcome."

The three of them entered Ice Lan Palace while talking.

At this time, there were also Foundation Establishment True Persons coming to rent caves and shop fronts.

But Shi Lan ignored them all, letting other female disciples receive them.

She guarded Luo Chen wholeheartedly, fearing that others would come up to chat.

"Senior, please this way, let's go to the second floor!"

Luo Chen didn't decline and followed her to the second floor.

Subsequently, a huge sand table appeared in his eyes.

In the center of the sand table was Tianlan Immortal City, which occupied the widest area!

Then, there were mountains and rivers scattered around like stars.

Many places were marked with red dots, and even had corresponding names.

Luo Chen only took one look, and saw familiar names like Heavenly Clothing Workshop, Peach Mountain, and Divine Work Sect on it.

Other than that, there were still a few white light spots, emitting faint light on it.

The gazes of the three fell on those white light spots.

Ownerless land!

Or it shouldn't be said like that; these places, nominally, belong to Tianlan Immortal City.

It's just that now, in reality, no corresponding force occupies them.

Shi Lan picked up a long jade ruler, her high ponytail shaking behind her.

"Before, I heard Senior Luo Chen say that he wanted to rent a place with Tier 1 spiritual veins."

"After returning, I specially counted them and found seven that are most suitable for the Luotian Society to settle down."

"First is Jinghu! It was originally the territory of a talisman-making family, but it's a pity that the Foundation Establishment ancestor in the clan passed away, and there was no successor. Ten years ago, it stopped renting, and now it has been vacant."

The Fu family of Jinghu.

Sima Huiniang's mouth raised an arc that could not be seen.

"This place has a natural Tier 1 spiritual vein, which is a spiritual spring. Strictly speaking, it is also a Tier 1 branch derived from the Tier 3 spiritual land of Tianlan Peak."

"This place is enough to support the daily cultivation of over a hundred Qi Refining cultivators."

Sima Huiniang asked curiously, "What is the rental price?"

Shi Lan raised her finger, "Ten thousand spirit stones a year, at least ten years of rental!"

"So expensive!"

Sima Huiniang was startled.

This price is almost catching up to a Tier 2 cave on Tianlan Peak.

"Expensive has its reasons, President Sister."

Shi Lan smiled sweetly, and the jade ruler pointed to the white spot on the sand table.

Instantly, a lake covering dozens of acres appeared above the sand table in the form of a picture.

"In Jinghu, twenty-seven kinds of spirit fish are produced, and there are many kinds of aquatic spirit plants."

"Originally, the reason why the Fu family was famous in Tianlan for talisman making was that they used paper made from three kinds of water grass, which could amplify spells. The effect, compared to ordinary talismans, was a few points stronger."

Sima Huiniang realized.

Even for the Fu family, why they migrated all the way, but didn't stop at the market on the way, and went straight to Dahe Square, she understood.

Dahe Square, because of the Lancang River, also produces various aquatic spirit plants.

After absorbing animal skin talisman making, their future was undoubtedly brighter.

It's a pity that before they could show their talents, they were strangled in the cradle by their Luotian Society.

Shi Lan was full of confidence; Jinghu was a place she specially recommended.

The original owner hadn't left long ago.

The building facilities inside, after a little cleaning, could be used directly.

If it was sold, she could make a big profit of spirit stones from it!

It's a pity.

"Change another one!"

Luo Chen shook his head, not satisfied with Jinghu.

Shi Lan scratched her head, and the jade ruler pointed to other places.

"Bamboo Sea, the area is vast and boundless, and even borders Qingdan Valley. There are seven great spirit bamboos inside, and it produces bamboo rice. The taste and spiritual energy are far better than ordinary spirit rice, but it takes a lot of time to cultivate and pick, requiring a lot of manpower. If this is the foundation..."

"Change another one!"

"Wutong Mountain, a spirit mountain rumored to be pointed out by the Phoenix aura. Inside the mountain, there is a Tier 1 earth fire, the only disadvantage is that this mountain is too small..."

"Keep it for consideration."

"Yue Ning Bay, adjacent to Luosha Square, is a traffic hub, suitable for business. It is just easily disturbed by robbers, so it hasn't been rented out for a long time. The rent is eight thousand spirit stones a year."

Vivid pictures floated above the sand table in turn.

Suddenly.

Luo Chen pointed to a light cluster that appeared grayish-white.

"Introduce this place."

The jade ruler pointed at the grayish-white light cluster, and a towering mountain peak emitting seven-colored rosy light entered his eyes.
