Once Upon A Time, There Was A Spirit Sword Mountain

“That’s right. That’s what I mean. In this way, not only we directly benefit from it, but those ignorant fools will also benefit. Through the construction process, they can practice improving their cultivation. Not to mention after the building is complete, all of them will benefit materially from it; this is truly getting things done in one stroke! As the saying goes, before we kill a pig, we need to fatten it first; this is how our Intelligence Revenue Service will work, by empowering these ignorant fools. The stronger they are, the bigger the pig, and the fatter the pig, the more we can tax them. Compared to the way Seven Stars Sect work, by forcing people to sell their blood or kidney to pay for the cultivation, they’re basically killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.”

This remark left the dirty old man and Wu Feihua somewhat uncomfortable. Although they now had abandoned the dark and seek the light, listening to such a review of Seven Stars Sect from Wang Lu, in their heart, they still felt somewhat embarrassed.

“So the next question is, how do we find many Six Harmonies Pills?”

Wang Lu said, “That thing is already rotten in the street, it’s not some high-end drug; as long as we have the money, we can buy it.”

“Do you have money?”

“Why do you think I built that Primal Chaos Altar?”

Actually, if someone really wanted to but the Six Harmonies Pills, one didn’t need to use the currency of the Immortal Cultivation World—spirit stones. This drug was already so pervasive in the Nine Regions; it wasn’t a drug exclusive to Shengjing Sect anymore. Nowadays, even low-rank small sect could easily manufacture this Six Harmonies Pill. Therefore, its price continued to drop that it could be exchanged for the mortal world’s currency—this was the thing that the swindlers exploited. Otherwise, it would be too not cost effective if it could only be exchanged with spirit stones.

However, if one wanted to purchase in bulk, it was best to exchange it with spirit stones or other things. In any case, having this Primal Chaos Altar was equal to having an endless supply of wealth. For many low-rank sects, having a fully functioning altar was equal to sitting on a spirit stones vein; it was the key to the sect’s operation.

“Now that you mentioned it, what is that sphere you built today? I have not seen such an altar.”

“Hehe, like I said, this Primal Chaos Altar’s properties are…”

After Wang Lu carefully explained the properties of the altar, the several people in the room could not help but become startled. A growth type altar and tide intensity around six to seven rank altar were already enough to shock them. However, the more astonishing thing was that it was able to spout out a fifth rank elixir… This property has gone against the heaven’s will. Even a high-rank altar might not be able to do that, at least, one couldn’t expect an altar to be able to spout out fifth rank elixir just from absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy; this conversion rate was completely irrational...

“Tsk, tsk, this is really what you called ‘earns bushels of gold daily’. Wang Lu, have you ever counted? If you don’t rely on spirit stones as the altar’s material and just rely on tides, how long would it be before it spouts out again?”

Wang Lu said, “In general, every day it can spout eleven times.”

The dirty old man gawked, and then blurted, “Eleven times per day? Wouldn’t it mean in a year, this altar can provide us with several hundred thousands of spirit stones income!? This is equal to the income from a prefectural capital, no, it’s even more than a prefectural capital!”

Previously, the Seven Stars Sect occupied a prefectural capital and once had an income of several hundreds thousand of spirit stones in a year. However, that windfall couldn’t be replicated again. Only by accumulating several years of plunder could they hope to have that kind of riches.

Hearing the dirty old man’s part lamentation part amazement, Wang Lu thought that it was funny. “That’s because of my luck that in-eleven-spouts-in-succession-in-a-single-shake it spout out a fifth rank elixir, do you think another eleven spouts would produce something that is equal in worth to that? If so, then why don’t you try it yourself after your lecture tomorrow. If it doesn’t spout out an object that is equal in worth with the fifth rank elixir, then you have to pay me with your own money the difference in their value!”
