704: Chapter 217_2 704: Chapter 217_2 “Sect Leader, our Lianzhang Peak has also accumulated some resources over the years.
Should there be a need, our peak is willing to contribute these resources,” one disciple said.
“Our Little Zen Peak can also offer our resources,” another added.
“Purple Feather Peak is also willing to contribute resources,” echoed a third.
“This is for the benefit of the Hundred Peaks Sect.
We all belong to the Hundred Peaks Sect.
Without the Sect, our individual peaks would not exist.
To construct a new Mountain Protection Array for our Hundred Peaks Sect, we must contribute our resources,” affirmed a fourth.
“Sect Leader, with the resources from all our peaks combined, we should have enough to build the new Great Formation.
There’s no need to dip into the resources the Hundred Peaks Sect has saved,” they concluded.
Cao Zhen was a reincarnated being of great ability!
The crowd naturally supported the idea of Cao Zhen wanting to construct a new Great Formation.
However, the resources from the Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace were the foundation of the Hundred Peaks Sect, not easily accessible under normal circumstances.
Indeed, many past Sect Leaders, from the moment they assumed office until they stepped down, only contributed resources to the Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace but never once opened it.
Constructing a new Mountain Protection Array was certainly essential, but since it was a Golden Core Stage Array, it wasn’t necessary to utilize the resources from the Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace.
Listening to the advice offered by everyone, Cao Zhen was filled with gratitude.
In normal times, especially the Peak Masters from various peaks, no matter how many resources they had personally, didn’t each one of them desperately try to gather more for their own peaks at every opportunity?
Yet now, they were willing to part with their peak’s resources to let him construct the Mountain Protection Array.
This was why the Hundred Peaks Sect had stood tall for hundreds of thousands of years!
He had scrounged around many peaks himself and knew that many, especially those in the Upper Fifty Peaks, were quite wealthy.
But that was still not enough.
Cao Zhen looked at the crowd and shook his head, “My friends, the reason I want to open the Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace is not just to lay out another Mountain Protection Array.
I also plan to craft a large number of talismans, concoct a vast number of pills.
To defeat the three major Immortal Sects and ensure our Hundred Peaks Sect has enough strength to endure the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, we must enhance the cultivation base and power of all disciples in the Hundred Peaks Sect!”
As for alchemy, he naturally couldn’t cater to individual disciples from Four Treasures Peak as he did before.
Concocting such a quantity of pills was beyond his own energy capacity and even the Sect could not afford the massive amount of resources required.
“Craft talismans?”
“And concoct pills?”
“Talismans, are you talking about crafting something like the Supreme Gathering Spirit Talisman?”
Many were excited upon hearing this.
They knew that the people of Four Treasures Peak were skilled at talisman crafting and that many from the Academy helped in the production of these talismans for Four Treasures Peak.
They were also aware that the unique method used by Four Treasures Peak yielded a high success rate when crafting Gathering Spirit Talismans; moreover, the talismans they produced gathered spiritual energy more effectively than the standard ones, making them the preferred choice for purchase.
In the current state of the Hundred Peaks Sect, most talisman crafters connected with the Four Treasures Peak produced and sold Gathering Spirit Talismans.
Furthermore, they knew that people from Four Treasures Peak could craft a Supreme Gathering Spirit Talisman, which could gather spiritual energy even while one slept, aiding in cultivation.
If Peak Master Cao were to publicly provide everyone with Supreme Gathering Spirit Talismans, their cultivation speed would naturally increase.
“Yes, that’s right, Supreme Gathering Spirit Talismans,” Cao Zhen nodded affirmatively.
Once, he had used the Supreme Gathering Spirit Talismans as a trump card to keep those crafting talismans for Four Treasures Peak in line, warning them not to go too far, lest he released the Supreme Gathering Spirit Talismans to the market.
But now things were different.
As the Sect Leader of the Hundred Peaks Sect, he held the fate of all its members in his hands.
Currently, during the Reversal Mini Epoch Period, what he needed to do was bolster the power of the Hundred Peaks Sect, and he could not afford to keep any secrets any longer.
“However, the Supreme Gathering Spirit Talisman is only a part of it.
More importantly, it’s about the pills.
The resources needed for concocting them are far more substantial!”
“You need to access the resources of the Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace, Sect Leader.
What kind of pill are you planning to concoct?” many Peak Masters asked, their gaze then shifted towards the several disciples from Four Treasures Peak.
The disciples from Four Treasures Peak, except for Yi Sheng, were all bearers of the Ancient Immortal Body, which was thought to be non-viable for cultivation in this era.
Yet, all four with the Ancient Immortal Body from Four Treasures Peak managed to cultivate to the stage of Ten Abnormal Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, and everyone knew that Sect Leader Cao was adept at pill crafting.
There were rumors that Peak Master Cao had concocted pills for his disciples, which enabled them to break through to Perfect Completion of the Ten Different Golden Cores.
And then there was Yi Sheng.
Although she possessed an extremely good cultivation talent with a modern-day Immortal Body, Yi Sheng’s progress was strikingly rapid.
With not much time spent in cultivation, she had already reached the Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pill Perfect Completion stage.
All this was likely due to the pills crafted by Peak Master Cao.
Now, Peak Master Cao stated he would concoct pills for everyone.
If he were to produce these types of pills, how many more Golden Core stage cultivators would the Hundred Peaks Sect gain?
Or even how many more cultivators would achieve Ten Different Golden Cores of Great Perfection?
Cao Zhen had no intention of keeping this a secret; he addressed the crowd straightforwardly, “The pills I intend to concoct are those that can boost cultivation base.
The specific pills I will make depend on what resources we have in the Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace of the Hundred Peaks Sect.
My consideration is that all disciples of the Hundred Peaks Sect must be treated equally; it wouldn’t do to concoct pills for disciples of one peak and not another or to cater to those at the Core Formation Stage but neglect those in the Immortal Bridge Period.
