Chapter 1944: Heavenly Blue Purple Tea Wood, the Lu Clan

"Is it enough?" He Pingsheng asked Tong Haotian.

Old Tong said, "Enough, enough, more than enough!"

"These divine metals are enough to support your family for a hundred yuan of time, Young Master, so why still build a ship?"

He Pingsheng smiled. "Building a ship is a must; we can't just sit and eat the mountain empty, can we?"

As family members' cultivation rises higher and higher, the disciples needed grow more and more numerous, and expenses grow larger and larger.

Without some industry, it would easily arouse the suspicion of those with ulterior motives; once someone suspects, that is a bad signal for the family.

Therefore, He Pingsheng must use industry to disguise the source of his resources.

"Old Tong..." Sitting opposite Old Tong was Old Cao.

Old Cao said, "Now let us reason through this once!"

"First, the formation aspect and the space aspect — there is no problem with either; as long as there is money they can be purchased at any time, is that so?"

"Yes!" Old Tong nodded. "This point absolutely has no problem!"

"The ones controlling these two aspects are extraordinary clans in the Divine Realm; these two clans are by no means ordinary — they have clan branches in every place across the entire Divine Realm, specialized for selling items!"

"Our Tianshui City and Tianfeng City don't have them, but Tianxie King City certainly has branches of these two clans!"

"As long as we purchase from them, we need not worry about anyone making trouble; no one dares use such terrifying clans as a cat's-paw!"

"Makes sense!" Old Cao said. "Now let's talk about construction; the buildings on the ship, I think that's also no problem — later I'll find some low-level divine people from outside to specialize in doing these things!"

Construction is the simplest; it requires no technique whatsoever.

"Last is your hull!" Old Cao asked. "Master Tong, does the hull have any problem?"

Old Tong's brows furrowed slightly. "Generally speaking, materials used to build a hull fall into two types: one is the various metals of the Divine Realm — these are only used at connection points, needed in very small amounts, and... the key is that this old servant is an artifact refiner, so I am relatively familiar with these materials and also know where they are produced!"

"So these are no worry!"

"The key is the main body material — it is a type of divine wood!"

"Obtaining this divine wood is somewhat difficult!"

He Pingsheng asked, "What divine wood?"

Old Tong said, "A third-tier divine ship generally requires 【Heavenly Blue Purple Tea Wood】 — the timber is third-tier!"

"The characteristic of this timber is that its self-weight is relatively light, yet its strength is extremely high!"

"Heavenly Blue Purple Tea Wood is the most suitable third-tier divine wood for building a hull!"

"However this thing is only useful when building a ship, and its survival environment is harsh; under ordinary circumstances, no one cultivates it!"

【22】 "As for where to find it, this old servant still needs to inquire for a period of time!"

"As for where it is, the old servant will need to inquire for a while first!"

He Pingsheng waved his hand. "Let's split into two routes... First, Old Tong, you are responsible for designing the divine ship's blueprints, and the required formations and space types!"

"Second, Old Cao, you go inquire whether there is any clan in our Tianfeng City that cultivates Heavenly Blue Purple Tea Wood!"

"Go!"

The two left.

Only He Pingsheng and Yusi remained in the grand hall.

He Pingsheng did not idle either; he summoned his Dao Companion and disciples to the family's main hall.

Su Zhenzhen had indeed reached the Divine Spirit Realm, and was already at the second layer of the Divine Spirit Realm.

No help for it — in the entire He clan, she occupied the most incense power.

Qiao Huizhu and Wen Buwan cultivated the Great Dao, so their cultivation was the lowest, only at the second layer of the Divine Control Realm.

The rest — Kong Jiaojiao, Zhou Qingmei, Luo Bingyao, and others — had all reached the middle-to-late stages of the Divine Control Realm.

"Do it..." He Pingsheng chuckled, reaching out and producing several Four-Petal Hell plants.

He gave one each to Qiao Huizhu, Wen Buwan, Zhou Qingmei, Kong Jiaojiao, Luo Bingyao, Qiao Xiaoqiao, and Cheng Xiaohe.

Previously He Pingsheng had obtained nine stalks; after strengthening they became eighteen stalks. He used one himself, and gave one each to Wang Dun, Xin Baobao, Tai Zhen, Mu Qingtong, and Han Houzhi. After returning home and seeing Su Zhenzhen's cultivation could use it, he gave her one.

Such self-use plus gifting consumed fourteen stalks in total.

In He Pingsheng's hand, only four stalks remained.

The children were not given any, because they also all used incense power to raise cultivation, and the speed was very fast.

"Master..." Cheng Xiaohe looked at He Pingsheng and asked, "It's so boring after arriving in the Divine Realm!"

He Pingsheng asked, "How is it boring?"

Cheng Xiaohe said, "Master, look... when we were in the Spirit Realm and Cultivation World, or later in the Immortal Realm, your disciple could still cultivate!"

"But upon reaching the Divine Realm, instead there's no need to cultivate!"

"Just set up a broken divine statue in the offering hall and you can obtain incense power; cultivation grows automatically — it's really boring!"

Everyone nodded along.

Except for Qiao Huizhu and Wen Buwan, the rest all cultivated the Incense Fire Dao.

He Pingsheng chuckled. "Don't rush... currently you are in the Lower God Realm, so naturally it is like this!"

"When you reach the Middle God Realm, after breaking through to the God Monarch Realm it will be different — at that time raising cultivation will not only need incense power, but also require comprehending Dao laws!"

"At that time, you certainly won't feel bored!"

Everyone laughed heartily.

He Pingsheng looked left and right. "Now I have the servant Yusi, whose cultivation has already reached the first layer of the God King Realm; whoever among you still feels bored can have her take you to Tianfeng City or even Tianxie King City for a look!"

Hearing this, everyone immediately jumped up happily.

Especially Xin Baobao and Luo Bingyao.

He Pingsheng looked at Yusi and suddenly thought of a question. "Yusi... you haven't made a divine statue yet, right? Later put your divine statue in the offering hall and also enjoy the He clan's incense power; if you feel the incense power is weak, we can also recruit a few high-level disciples to come pray!"

"No need!" Yusi shook her head. "Young Master, this servant has a divine statue, still placed in the Golden Butterfly Immortal Sect's divine hall. My father said, from now on my incense power will never be cut off!"

He Pingsheng was overjoyed. "That's good then!"

Afterwards, he had Su Zhenzhen distribute some physical divine gold and corresponding amounts to everyone, then had Rain Thought lead the people away from the He family to go sightseeing in the surrounding cities.

A few days later, Old Cao returned!

"Young Master, Old Cao, this time I went out, I can say I searched high and low without success, yet found it effortlessly!"

"Guess where there is sky-blue purple tea wood?"

He Pingsheng looked curious: "Where is it? Doesn't Tianfeng City have any?"

"Yes!" Old Cao happily chuckled: "Right under our noses……Our Tianze Mountain's major patron, the Lu family, cultivates sky-blue purple tea wood; this is one of their businesses!"

"So convenient!"

"Old servant will go to their Lu family today to see if we can purchase some?"

"Good……" He Pingsheng said, "No need to rush, wait until Old Tong's design drawings come out, confirm our annual required quantity, then go buy—it's not too late!"
