Chapter 359:

Central Province, Holy Heavenly City.

"Our sect’s young master, Yang Luo, has deeply felt the scarcity of high-level weapons in the cultivation world in recent years. Today, he freely announces two thods for refining spiritual treasures."

"thod one: Forced refinent. It involves taking the spirit and essence of cultivators at the Soul Changing level or above and using special techniques to refine spiritual treasures. The higher the cultivator’s cultivation level, the higher the quality of the spiritual treasure that can be refined. However, it can’t be used for promotion. Rember, this thod harms the heavens and is not allowed to be used to kill cultivators for treasure refining. Instead, it can be used to take the lives of evil cultivators and demons to obtain treasures and also rid the cultivation world of harm…"

"thod two: Internal and External Refining thod. The traditional thod relies on the cultivator’s original energy as the foundation for refinent, resulting in slow progress and great costs, which greatly hinders cultivation advancent. Therefore, our sect’s young master, Yang Luo, introduces a new Internal and External Refining thod. The internal thod is similar to the traditional one, with slight improvents. The external thod is…"

Once the secret thods for creating magical treasures were revealed, the entire world of magic was imdiately swept up. Countless schools and practitioners rushed to buy and study them.

········

"She even started delving into the art of crafting pills, talismans, items, and formations."

In front of Lin Jiang in Shenmu City, there were two jade scrolls. He sighed, worried about the future of the magical world.

"Bro, it seems like Yang Luo thinks the magical world is too peaceful. That’s why she’s bringing out stuff like this."

Little Shadiao also chid in, even this little bird knew that once this secret thod was made public, the entire magical world would be in turmoil. It could even be more dangerous than the new talisman technique.

Especially the first secret thod, which required using cultivators as materials. Even though the Holy Heavenly Sect emphasized using evil cultivators, where can you find so many of them to kill? In the end, it would be regular cultivators who suffer. Are they not in danger?

One can imagine that in the future, people will go to war to create spiritual treasures. Through battles and conquests, they will kill the leaders of the opposing side to obtain the materials needed for creating spiritual treasures.

"I now see Yang Luo as a madwoman, a warmonger."

Lin Jiang also said that Yang Luo is really causing a lot of trouble. Just when things had settled down a bit, she started ssing around again.

Of course, it’s also possible that Yang Luo has other ambitions that haven’t been revealed yet. Just like when she was in Tianxian City, who could have imagined that the Holy Heavenly Sect would quickly take over the Spiritual Moon Sect? And she used a new talisman technique to handle many of the Spiritual Moon Sect’s allies. This ti, when Yang Luo revealed the thod of refining a spiritual treasure, there might be other plans as well.

"Brother, the more you say that, the more scared I beco of this woman. Can’t we just get rid of her?"

"How can we get rid of her? I couldn’t even defeat her when she was in the early stage of Nascent Soul cultivation. It’s been a hundred years, and now she’s probably in the later stage of Nascent Soul. Who knows, in a few years, she might even reach the stage of Soul Changing."

"You could let her absorb your life force and drain her to death."

"·····"

As soon as Lin Jiang heard this, he raised his hand, and Small Shadiao, sensing danger, imdiately fled.

"Co back here."

"Okay, brother."

"Take out the jade slip and use the formula on it to prepare the dicine."

Lin Jiang handed the second jade slip for refining spiritual treasure to Small Shadiao. It had detailed instructions on how to make a special liquid.

The external refining thod is to soak a magical treasure in the liquid, allowing it to absorb the energy. After a certain amount of ti, the treasure can be taken out and refined in the dantian, saving a lot of ti.

However, these thods cannot guarantee that a spiritual treasure will definitely be cultivated. It still depends on opportunities. But no matter what, this is very important for many people. With a spiritual treasure, their combat strength can increase significantly.

Naturally, Lin Jiang wouldn’t miss this opportunity, so he asked Small Shadiao to prepare the materials. One can only imagine how expensive these materials have beco in the outside world.

······

"Brother Yun, have you figured it out?"

"Yes, I have calculated that it is 20% of the total amount. Well done, Brother Bai."

Lin Jiang handed the account book to Bai Yu and also slipped a storage bag into Bai Yu’s pocket.

The Holy Heavenly Sect published over a hundred different recipes for elixirs. There weren’t any very rare ingredients, but there were seven or eight with very low output. Bai Yu only revealed these, and didn’t disclose the others.

During this ti, the two of them almost emptied their fortunes, secretly acquiring materials on a large scale. Now that the recipes have been announced, the prices of these materials have increased several tis in just one day. They are now twenty or thirty tis more expensive than before.

Lin Jiang took advantage of the opportunity and sold off twenty percent of them. After deducting various expenses, there was still a profit to be made. The rest is all pure profit. With this deal, they could make enough money to cover their expenses for several decades or even hundreds of years.

"I can trust Brother Yun. Tonight, I’ll treat you."

"Hold on, Brother Bai, let

say a few words first."

"Please, Brother Yun."

"Becoming suddenly wealthy makes it easy for people to target you. Even Brother Bai’s special status in the Holy Heavenly Sect can’t protect him from that. So during this ti, it’s important to keep a low profile and not leave the city."

"Brother Yun is right. I’ll rember that."

"Also, Brother Bai, you need to be prepared on the side of the Holy Heavenly Sect, make sure you don’t get discovered."

"Don’t worry, Brother Yun, I was prepared in advance."

Bai Yu said, he was able to stand out among the disciples of the Holy Heavenly Sect because he knew how to deal with things.

After Lin Jiang’s reminder, he let Bai Yu leave. Lin Jiang was considering whether to take advantage of the situation. This ti, it was the biggest and most profitable business he had ever done, even more so than his previous real estate investnt in Xuanmiao City.

If he took advantage of the situation, Lin Jiang could make a fortune in one go. He wouldn’t have to worry about expenses for eight or nine hundred years. Of course, the risk was also great. Not to ntion that Bai Yu was not weak. Once discovered by the Holy Heavenly Sect, he would inevitably be chased after.

Two hours later, Lin Jiang saw Bai Yu in the hall. Bai Yu was now very popular, and many people were talking to him about the materials of the spiritual liquid.

The Holy Heavenly Sect’s business was not a small matter. They were open and aboveboard, and their scale was much larger than Lin Jiang’s. Currently, the Holy Heavenly Sect had the most variety of materials.

"Dear taoist friends, I really can’t be in charge of the business matters. You should find my senior brother."

Bai Yu was annoyed. He didn’t stand to gain much from the Holy Heavenly Sect’s business, so he didn’t want to be involved at all.

When Bai Yu saw Lin Jiang coming out, he imdiately gave him a signal with his eyes, and Lin Jiang sent the person away.

"Oh my, it’s true that money makes the world go round. This ti, my Holy Heavenly Sect is going to turn the tables."

"No problem if Holy Heavenly Sect can earn the profits of the past hundred years in one go, right?"

"Brother Yun, you’re expecting too much. It would be good enough if the Sect can earn the profits of the past thirty years. The rest would just end up in other people’s pockets."

Bai Yu sneered, thinking that not everyone in the Holy Heavenly Sect is selfless. Why isn’t he afraid of investigation? It’s because he’s not the only one profiting from the Sect. The Yang family, in particular, is making a killing. He’s nowhere near as fortunate.

"Anyway, be careful. I see that the other sects are very angry this ti, because Holy Heavenly Sect made a fortune."

"That’s a matter for higher-ups. Dealing with soone like

at the Nascent Soul stage ans nothing."

"Just be cautious."

"Brother Yun, do you think the prices of these materials will go up?"

"Yes, but not by much. At most, for six months. After that, they will slowly drop, but still remain higher than before."

Lin Jiang said that there is a large amount of material in the cultivation world, but the production is low at the mont. The high price won’t last long, and the production will soon increase. It is normal for the price to decrease.

"Can Brother Yun take action within six months?"

"Yes, if he is willing to take so risks, I can take action within a month."

Lin Jiang said that there are no lack of unscrupulous businessn in the cultivation world. Based on Lin Jiang’s years of experience in speculation, many speculators should have suffered losses by now, and there will always be soone ready to take over at a low price.

However, the cultivation world is different from a peaceful society. With such high profits, many people would take risks. Without the power and courage to act, one would simply beco a pawn.

"Then let’s be more cautious."

"Alright, Brother Bai has the final say."

Lin Jiang doesn’t plan to take risks either. It’s okay to earn a little less profit. At this mont, Lin Jiang is becoming more clear-headed and rational. He won’t let his judgent be clouded by greed. It’s all about experience.

One month later, Lin Jiang received news from various sources through Small Shadiao, and it turned out just as Lin Jiang had predicted. In this month, at least five Soul Changing Periods had fallen in the cultivation world, and the friction between so forces had escalated several levels. They were preparing for a battle.

After all, the secret of the second thod of refining spiritual treasure has been around for too long. How can it be made quickly? Killing soone above Soul Changing will do, although there is a certain probability of failure. But isn’t it ti-saving? If killing one doesn’t work, then kill two.

As for the Holy Heavenly Sect, during this ti, they have also been heavily criticized. Many sects accused the Holy Heavenly Sect of causing trouble in the cultivation world. The first secret thod could have been kept private. This thod is no different from dark cultivation techniques. The reaction to the Holy Heavenly Sect’s hoarding of resources was even more intense. The comrcial establishnts of the Holy Heavenly Sect in various cultivation cities are facing investigations into tax evasion and fraud.

The Holy Heavenly Sect cannot ignore the angry public opinion. They quickly responded to these accusations. The Holy Heavenly Sect claid that their techniques were not evil. It’s like a sword, without good or evil. If this secret thod is used by dark cultivators, it would benefit the cultivation world. As for how others use it, the Holy Heavenly Sect has already advised and cannot control them.

As for tax evasion and fraud, the comrcial establishnts under the Holy Heavenly Sect are willing to be investigated. They will be punished when necessary and expelled if needed.

Their intention is quite clear. The Holy Heavenly Sect indeed made so mistakes this ti, so they are willing to offer compensation to the various sects. This is the fine. If the fine is too harsh, then they will be expelled. They won’t tolerate it. This is actually a fair distribution of benefits, and they will all benefit from it.

The other sects naturally couldn’t be so just. Since the Holy Heavenly Sect has spoken, they didn’t pursue the matter further. Instead, they focused on dealing with other things, like certain hostile forces, and labeled them as dark cultivators.
