Chapter 183 Zhou Yuntian's whole body went limp
Zhao Shizhe returned to Lingyun Sect and went directly to the Sect Master's Hall.
"Zhou boy, Zhou boy, quickly pack all the seventh-tier spiritual plants according to the pill formula. There are still sixth-tier and eighth-tier ones left."
"no!"
Before Zhou Yuntian could say anything, an elder standing nearby intervened.
Zhao Shizhe didn't seem to care and asked, "Why can't it work?"
"Of course not. Lingyun Sect has so many spiritual plants, how can you, an outsider, just take them away?"
Zhao Shizhe pointed at his nose in disbelief and asked, "Am I an outsider?!"
"You're not an outsider, so why would I be?"
Zhou Yuntian was about to say something when Zhao Shizhe stopped him with a look.
"Then, as an outsider, I'd like to ask, how do you prove you're an insider? What's your identification badge?"
"Hmph, why would I show you my ID card? Who do you think you are?"
Zhao Shizhe was furious. Apart from Tu Shan and those old fogies, who would dare to speak to him in such a tone?
"I'm your ancestor!"
The full pressure of the Void Refinement stage cultivator was unleashed, and apart from Zhou Yuntian, the other elders present all prostrated themselves on the ground, sweating profusely.
"Boom!"
The person who had just spoken was forced to kowtow until blood appeared on his forehead.
How could a mere clown dare to provoke a dignified Void Refinement stage cultivator? If word got out, would the Lingyun Sect still have any face left?
Zhou Yuntian was about to say something, but remembering Elder He's arrogance and swagger in recent years, he chose to remain silent.
It's time for the Lingyun Sect to get some serious reforms.
It took a full incense stick's time before the oppressive aura dissipated.
"Welcome, Supreme Ancestor!"
Zhou Yuntian led the way in bowing.
"The...the Supreme Ancestor?"
The others, ignoring the sweat on their faces, followed suit and bowed.
"There's a reason why I want all the seventh-tier spiritual plants. Take a look at these pills."
Zhao Shizhe took out a bottle each of high-grade pills of the fifth, sixth, and seventh rank.
Each person at the venue poured out one, looked at it again and again, and smelled it again and again.
"This...this is a top-grade pill that is almost perfect."
Elder He couldn't help but say that he couldn't refine it with his abilities.
“That’s right. All these pills are made by one person. I’ve agreed with her that I will give her all the seventh-grade spiritual plants, and she will give me one high-grade pill for each batch. As for the rest, she can decide what quality of pills she makes and how many she makes.”
"If they are all seventh-grade pills of this quality, I agree to give him all the spiritual plants!"
"I agree. Although I don't know how to refine pills, I know that it's not easy to make seventh-grade pills, let alone high-grade ones. Quick, take them all. This is our sect's chance to rise."
"Elder, this good news mustn't be told to the other sects, lest they join in the fun and that master won't have time to refine it for us."
"It's too late. The people from Tianyi Sword Sect and Piaomiao Immortal Sect already know. They should be taking the spiritual plants right now."
Elder He was anxious. He was arrogant, but he still knew his limits when it came to matters of principle.
"I'll go get it right now! Elder, I was blind just now. Please wait a moment, I'll be right back."
Seeing that he knew what was good for him, Zhao Shizhe was about to stop him when Elder He had already disappeared before his eyes.
"Look how anxious this child is."
Having a few petty thoughts is fine, as long as you can be clear-headed about important matters, it's not a big deal.
"I was going to tell you that we have enough high-grade pills for now, so there's no need to rush."
"Elder, what do you mean by 'enough for now'? Do you mean there are two hundred of each of these three types of pills?"
Currently, Lingyun Sect has 200 Nascent Soul stage cultivators, 30 Deity Transformation stage cultivators, 4 Body Integration stage cultivators, and 1 Void Refinement stage cultivator.
The other three sects, except for the Misty Immortal Sect which has a slightly larger number of members, are about the same size as the Lingyun Sect.
The higher one's cultivation level, the higher the grade and quality of the pills required.
For example, if Zhao Shizhe were injured at this moment, what use would a fourth-tier Rejuvenation Pill be to him?
The seventh tier might be somewhat useful, but the required quantity is enormous.
The stronger they are, the less likely they are to act rashly, not only because it would have too great an impact, but also because there are too few elixirs that can save them.
Zhao Shizhe said expressionlessly, "No."
"Thank goodness, thank goodness, that gave me a fright. There are two hundred high-grade seventh-rank pills. How powerful must that alchemist be? I'm afraid even Elder Mu can't compare."
An elder stroked his beard, deeply moved.
"Indeed, Elder Mu's alchemy skills have improved. He can consistently produce five seventh-grade pills per batch, but most of them are only of medium grade. He still can't produce high-grade pills."
"Yes, that's why people shouldn't be compared. If Elder Mu were here, he might go crazy."
He's not crazy. He's currently hanging around the master you're talking about, freeloading and gaining experience points.
Soon, Elder He came before the crowd.
"Elder, I not only brought the seventh-grade pills, but also all the eighth-grade pills. Rather than letting Elder Mu take advantage of us, we might as well give them to that person to try. If he manages to refine a high-grade eighth-grade pill, then our sect..."
"You're smart, kid. Don't worry, we won't lose out. The people here are the pillars of the sect, and I won't hide it from you."
This time I bought 5,300 high-grade fifth-tier pills, 8,700 high-grade sixth-tier pills, and 480 high-grade seventh-tier pills from that person. That should last you a long time.
It cost a total of over two thousand high-grade spirit stones, but I deposited ten thousand high-grade spirit stones with her.
"Does this mean that the Supreme Elder can buy a total of 10,000 high-grade spirit stones worth of high-grade pills?"
Zhao Shizhe gave him an approving look: "Not bad, so you can use it with confidence."
"Elder, did I hear that right? You just said we have 14,480 high-grade spirit stones."
"Yes, there will be more in the future. Focus on improving your strength; the sect needs you."
"Yes, Supreme Elder!"
The elders bowed solemnly, unable to suppress the smiles on their faces.
"Alright, you guys discuss how to use it, I'll go deliver the spiritual plants first."
Zhao Shizhe's voice echoed in the main hall.
"Respectfully seeing off the Supreme Elder!"
"Sect Master, am I dreaming?!"
"No, the Supreme Elder has already left all the pills to me. Let's discuss how to use them."
"Good good!"
Soon, an argument broke out in the main hall: one person suggested giving one to each person; another suggested exchanging it for contributions; and yet another suggested rewarding based on past merits.
The group got into a huge argument.
Just as Zhou Yuntian was getting a headache from the argument, he suddenly received a telepathic message from Zhao Shizhe.
"Oh right, there's something I forgot to tell you. As the sect leader, you should know that when someone refines a batch of seventh-grade pills, they don't just give you one high-grade pill, but one top-grade and one high-grade pill."
"The matter of top-grade elixirs is too important to concern you alone."
A seventh-tier top-grade item, or one per furnace?
Zhou Yuntian's legs went weak.
Ancestors of the Lingyun Sect, the Lingyun Sect will prosper in my hands, Zhou!
Seeing that Zhou Yuntian seemed to be losing his balance, Elder He quickly asked, "Sect Master, are you so happy that your legs are weak? Your endurance is not as strong as mine."
You know nothing!
Zhou Yuntian couldn't help but curse Elder He in his heart for being ignorant.
That's a top-grade seventh-rank pill. Look at you, your eyes light up and your legs go unsteady just from seeing a high-grade pill.
If you knew about the seventh-tier top-grade item, you'd be lying on the ground in shock.
Looking at the excited expressions of the people present, he felt a sense of disdain, as if they were all trash.
