“If you become the top disciple of the true teachings, and if the Foundation Establishment pill from Elder Zhou is successful, you should have one.”

Lu Jun didn’t know why Chen Mobai was so confident, but considering his age, he thought that young people should have such sharpness.

“These two jars of spiritual wine, please help me deliver them to Inspector Sun.”

Sun Gaochang went to the Hall of Virtue today to report on the expenditure of spiritual stone resources of the Spiritual Plant Department this year, and Chen Mobai didn’t meet him.

After receiving his 100 spiritual stone benefits from the Spiritual Plant Department this year, he returned to Xiaoyang Ridge.

Chen Mobai harvested the spiritual rice from the spiritual field he had opened, and then let the three disciples of Shenmu Sect he had hired to dry it separately.

Those belonging to the sect had been harvested by Lu Jun Teng a few days ago, adding 3100 contribution points to Chen Mobai’s account. The reason for the increase from last year was that 20 more Dew Grass plants had grown in the medicinal field.

This Dew Grass, as a top-grade spiritual herb of the first order, can sell for 5 spiritual stones per plant in the market.

Chen Mobai had no experience in cultivation in the first year, so the yield was average.

This year, he specifically went to the library to learn about the knowledge of spiritual value cultivation passed down by the Shenmu Sect, learned about the growth habits and cultivation methods of Dew Grass, and also took an elective course on “Spiritual Herb Cultivation” from the Immortal Gate, resulting in nearly 20% more Dew Grass harvested this year.

The contribution of Dew Grass to the sect is normal, but even without the tenfold bonus of spiritual rice, the harvest of 80 plants from two acres still gave Chen Mobai an additional 400 sect contribution points. In terms of spiritual stones, the yield per acre far exceeded that of spiritual rice.

If it weren’t for Chen Mobai’s plan to brew wine to earn spiritual stones in the future, he might have turned the spiritual field into a medicinal field under such a harvest of spiritual medicine and spiritual herbs, like other disciples of the Shenmu Sect, focusing on planting precious medicinal herbs, and becoming rich overnight when the harvest comes in ten or twenty years.

“Brother Chen, all the rice has been dried.”

A plain-looking young man walked into the wooden house on Xiaoyang Ridge and respectfully reported to Chen Mobai, who was preparing to draw talismans.

“Thank you, Brother Liang, this is your reward for this year.”

There were two other disciples of the Shenmu Sect outside the door, they were the ones Chen Mobai had hired from the Spiritual Plant Department at the Lingbao Pavilion.

“Thank you, Brother Chen.”

After receiving the reward of 15 spiritual stones, the leading Brother Liang hesitated for a moment, but still plucked up the courage to express his intention.

“Brother, I don’t plan to come next year.”

“Oh, why is that? If it’s not enough spiritual stones, I can add more.”

Chen Mobai was somewhat surprised when he heard Liang Xinhuo’s words, and put down the green bamboo pen in his hand.

Compared to the other two pseudo-spiritual root disciples who had no hope of advancement and were at the Qi Refining second level, Liang Xinhuo, although he had four spiritual roots, was still young and ambitious.

Over the past two years, it was thanks to his hard work that Chen Mobai was able to have extra time to study and research talismans at the Dance Instrument Academy, and improve his cultivation level.

If it were the other two who proposed to leave, Chen Mobai would definitely let them go without a second word.

But for Liang Xinhuo, he felt it was necessary to retain him.

After hearing this, Liang Xinhuo also expressed his thoughts directly.

“Brother Chen, you have outstanding spiritual roots and are the pride of the sect. In a few years, you may even have the hope of becoming a true disciple. You are kind and I am happy to work under you.”

“But I feel that since I have the opportunity to join the Shenmu Sect, even if my spiritual roots are poor, I hope to seize this immortal fate.”

“With the farming under your command and the sect’s subsidies, I can have 50 spiritual stones a year. After I break through to the Qi Refining fourth level, these spiritual stones are not enough for daily cultivation. In order to go further on the path of cultivation, I have decided to join the sect’s team to open up the Dream Swamp and take a chance for myself.”

Hearing this, Chen Mobai knew that he definitely couldn’t keep Liang Xinhuo.

Even if he offered more spiritual stones, how could he compete with E Yun and the others.

Moreover, opening up the Dream Swamp is the sect’s major strategy for the next ten years, backed by the Golden Elixir ancestors, and the spiritual stone resources of the Hall of Virtue are basically supplied to this group of people first.

All the ambitious people in the Shenmu Sect, under the leadership of the three newly established Foundation Establishment disciples, Honghe, Zhou Wangshen, and E Yun, have basically flocked to the Dream Swamp.

If it weren’t for the fact that Chen Mobai had made a lot of spiritual stones from opening storage bags, he might have been tempted too.

“In that case, I wish Brother Liang a smooth journey. Take this talisman.”

As he spoke, Chen Mobai picked up a talisman made of “Silver Edge Bamboo Leaf” from the table, which was a newly drawn Red Flame Sword Talisman.

“Thank you, Brother Chen. If I can return from this expedition, I will definitely serve under Brother Chen.”

Liang Xinhuo knew the price of this top-grade first-order talisman in the sect’s Lingbao Pavilion. He couldn’t buy two of them even with a year’s farming. Although it was drawn by Chen Mobai himself, he was still very excited.

After sending away this capable farming assistant, Chen Mobai was a bit annoyed that he would have to recruit people again next year.

But this matter can be considered later, the main thing now is the upcoming sect competition.

He picked up a bright red rectangular piece of talisman ink and began to gently grind it. This was the “Red Zhu Talisman Ink” unique to Jumu Ridge.

Three years of studying the “Talisman Ink Pigment Extraction” course at the Dance Instrument Academy, plus various ink-making tools from the Immortal Gate, allowed Chen Mobai to perfect the blending of this “Red Zhu Talisman Ink”.

Almost the entire piece of talisman ink was second-order bright red, with only a thin layer of impurities at the bottom and foam at the top, affecting the quality.However, if he were to sell this piece of talisman ink in Shenmu City, everyone would consider it as second-grade, because even the most skilled monk in ink making could only produce such high-quality talisman ink when the state of the materials was perfect.

After grinding, Chen Mobai lifted the green bamboo pen in his right hand and dipped it in some talisman ink.

Finally, he put the pen down on the silver-edged bamboo leaves on the table, like a streak of crimson flame passing by, illuminating the entire network of bamboo leaves, and in one breath, a complete talisman was formed.

The Red Flame Sword Talisman!

With Chen Mobai’s skill level equivalent to a second-grade talisman maker in the Tianhe Realm, making the Red Flame One Sword Talisman and Two Sword Talisman was no longer a challenge. Only the Three Sword Talisman, which was equivalent to a second-grade difficulty, had a success rate of only fifty percent.

Since he only had eight golden-edged bamboo leaves in his hand, he would only attempt to draw when his mental state was at its best.

As he was about to participate in the sect competition for the second time, Chen Mobai decided to complete the drawing of some bamboo leaf talismans he had accumulated in order to give himself some more cards to play.

As one of the signature items of the Shenmu Sect, the Red Flame Sword Talisman could also slightly reveal his talisman-making skills. Once he became a true disciple in the future, he could sell it like the Jade Bud Spirit Wine to earn spirit stones.

Time flew by, and he had turned all twenty-six silver-edged bamboo leaves he had collected over the past two years into Red Flame Sword Talismans.

He used half of the eight golden-edged jade bamboos.

Two of them were turned into Red Flame Three Sword Talismans.

Two failed, but he used the skills of the Immortal Gate to maintain the power of the Red Flame Two Sword Talisman.
