Chapter 905: Benefits

In the Immortal Realm, Yun Qiu Immortal Domain.

“This is the tea of the wide road of swordsmanship that Master asked me to bring you.”

In the secret realm of celestial spirits, Li Xingci came to visit his good Senior Brother again.

From Li Xingci’s soul, a charm emerged, and then endless sword intent surged, finally condensing into a cup of fragrant tea.

“Master always thinks of us when there are benefits,” Wang Xiangchi said, touched as he looked at the fragrant tea on the table.

“Besides cultivating in the Immortal Realm, I can only hope you come by to see me from time to time,” Wang Xiangchi said, feeling bored.

“This is a message from Master and your two disciples,” the man said, placing a jade slip in front of Wang Xiangchi.

“When will our Hidden Spirit Island be upgraded?” Wang Xiangchi asked eagerly.

“Soon, it will take less than 100 years.”

“However, according to Master’s calculations, once we enter the Wood Origin Immortal Realm, it might be far away from Yun Qiu Immortal Domain.”

“Even if the sect comes to the Immortal Realm, you might not see Master for a while,” the man said with a hint of regret.

“That’s no problem; there are large long-distance teleportation formations all over the Immortal Realm. As long as I know the range of the Giant City where the sect is located, I can reach the sect quickly,” Wang Xiangchi replied.

In the Immortal Realm, he experienced what it means to truly follow the money-making path. As long as one has enough Immortal Jade, even a Great Luo Saint would bow down to serve, as long as you can control your wealth.

The Wood Origin Immortal Realm is vast; even a Golden Immortal would need hundreds of thousands of years to cross the entire Immortal Realm without using a teleportation formation.

“Senior Brother, is that teleportation formation the one that costs 2 million Immortal Jade to activate for inter-domain teleportation?”

Li Xingci looked at his good Senior Brother and suddenly thought of something; his disciple was the richest in the Hidden Spirit Sect and might even be the richest in the Feiyu Realm. The mere 2 million Immortal Jade shouldn’t be a problem.

“I may not have much Immortal Jade right now, but activating an inter-domain teleportation formation isn’t a problem,” Wang Xiangchi said with a smile, deciding to praise his two disciples when he returned.

“I envy you, Senior Brother, for having such disciples.” Li Xingci expressed his envy, determined to ask Master to find a few people with a destined fate to take as disciples.

“Rather than becoming their master, I’m more grateful that we both became disciples under Master together,” Wang Xiangchi said.

Sometimes he felt that any person with a destined fate couldn’t compare to his own father’s strength.

As Master said, he started at the finish line the moment he was born.

“By the way, what have my two disciples been up to recently? How are they progressing?” Wang Xiangchi took a sip of the tea of the wide road and immediately fell into a state of enlightenment.

“Your two disciples are doing well; they have already become Great Ascension Masters. Among the sect’s disciples, their fighting strength and cultivation rank at the top.”

“Senior Brother, I’ll take my leave now; see you in one year.”

The man took out a sound stone and recorded these two sentences, placing it on the table.

With the Hidden Spirit Sect in place, Grape had built a new small island.

On that small island, top business associations from the Feiyu Realm gathered, and their purpose here was to acquire the local specialties of the little Immortal Realm from the Hidden Spirit Sect Disciple.

Xiong Li and Qian Bing strolled happily through the commercial street of the small island. They had gathered resources from the little Immortal Realm, exchanged them for local specialties, and then turned around to make at least ten times the profit.

“Senior Brother, didn’t you have your eye on that graded celestial tool, the scale armor?”

“Now that we have money, let’s buy it!” Qian Bing exclaimed with the face of a newfound rich man.

“That piece of celestial tool, the phosphor armor, costs 1,100 Immortal Jade, but I also spotted a pair of celestial tool heavy hammers. Though they are standard celestial tools, they are quite powerful, and that would be another 500 Immortal Jade,” Xiong Li said with a smile, rubbing his hands, the meaning of his words clear.

Never immediately step back; keep your eyes alert as you watch Xiong Li.

“Senior Brother, I’ve already done you a favor by helping you get rich. If you borrow my Immortal Jade and mess up my plans, that’s not fair.”

“I have nine puppets under my command, but I still don’t have the right precious artifacts for them.”

“And with my tens of thousands of puppets, I should at least have a set of spiritual tools that match the precious artifacts, right? All of this requires Immortal Jade.”

“Over the years, dealing with these puppets has left me poorer than even those junior disciples who focus on sword formations.”

“Now that the sect has finally handed out some benefits, giving me a bit of wealth, you can’t treat me like this!” Qian Bing said, clearly agitated.

Those who work with puppets are just as serious as those who practice sword formations. For years, he’s either been earning spirit stones or on the way to earning them; otherwise, how would he have gotten those tens of thousands of resource-mining puppets?

Hearing Qian Bing’s words, Xiong Li found them quite reasonable. He could sense the struggles his junior brother had been through.

“How about this: you equip fewer puppets and lend me 300 Immortal Jade for now. I’ll pay you back as soon as I can,” Xiong Li said with a slight smile.

“Senior Brother, I’ve got an idea! You could take out a loan from the Business World. With your status, you’d definitely qualify for an interest-free limit,” Qian Bing suggested, his eyes lighting up.

“No, you’re my closest brother. If I don’t ask you, who else would I ask?”

Xiong Li grabbed Qian Bing with both hands, holding him like a little chick. After years of friendship, they knew each other well. Xiong Li could tell at a glance that his junior brother was genuinely struggling.

Half an hour later, Xiong Li walked away with the heavy armor and massive hammers he wanted.

In the underground space of the Hidden Spirit Sect, Xu Fan listened to Grape’s report while crafting artifacts.

“Good. After distributing this round of benefits, almost all the sect’s disciples have received the precious artifacts and spirit objects they’ve been longing for,” Xu Fan said with a smile.

“The total amount of Immortal Jade exchanged by the sect’s disciples on the small island has exceeded 2 million Immortal Jade.”

Grape’s voice carried a hint of sympathy.

“Disciples represent the sect’s prestige. The spiritual tools, celestial tools, and exotic treasures they carry are a reflection of that prestige.”

“Once we reach the Immortal Realm and step outside the sect, no one will dare look down on the Hidden Spirit Sect,” Xu Fan said confidently.

“In the future, we should distribute such benefits more often. Once you fully control the Source Realm and merge it with the little Immortal Realm, create a resource-rich little Immortal Realm. Open it for five years every century, allowing disciples to go treasure hunting freely. This will keep them motivated,” Xu Fan instructed after a moment of thought.

“Understood, Master.”

At that moment, Grape received a message.

“Master, your grandson exchanged Immortal Jade for two cups of Tea of the Wide Road,” Grape announced.

“That’s 10,000 Immortal Jade per cup!” Xu Fan exclaimed, performing a hand seal to condense two cups of Tea of the Wide Road, both infused with swordsmanship essence.

“He’s really willing to splurge!”

The Tea of the Wide Road he currently condensed was of the mundane variety. Once he ascends to the Immortal Realm and becomes a Quasi-Immortal, he’ll cultivate the various laws of the Wide Road to a higher level and be able to condense Immortal Tea.

This kind of tea is highly sought after by great beings and practitioners across the Immortal Realm, with a single cup often costing 10,000 Immortal Jade or even more than 100,000 Immortal Jade.
