Chapter 473: Chapter 474: The Method of Making Heavenly and Earthly Spirit Stone

I spent another 5 million Gold Coins! Adding to what I already spent, I’ve shelled out a whopping total of 7 million Gold Coins on this trip! 7 hundred million Gold Coins!

How many Gold Coins do I even have left? Thinking about it makes me a little nervous! I’m spending cash so damn fast. Let’s check my balance... Huh. My interface displays the amount of Gold Coins I have left: 688,000,000. That’s 688 million Gold Coins!

It’s okay, it’s okay! My current goal isn’t about making money, so money isn’t a problem. Just relax and don’t worry!

Wow!! 5 million Gold Coins, 5 million Gold Coins!! The elder of the Jiushan Sect’s face is a mixture of ecstasy and sheer disbelief. He doesn’t seem concerned about his dwindling reserves at all and looks utterly delighted. Placing a hand on his shoulder, he says with a radiant smile, "Your name is Night Ghost, right? Your generosity is greatly appreciated. To show our gratitude, the Jiushan Sect will be your right-hand man from now on. If anyone dares to bully you or if you ever need our assistance, we will march into war for you without a second thought. Our sect will also offer you its protection."

Watching the rapid surge in the elder’s affection towards him, Chu You feels immensely pleased. This move has reaped multiple rewards.

"Here, this is a token from our Jiushan Sect. Whenever any of our members see this token, they will treat you as the Sect Master. Keep it with you. It will also protect you out there," he said, passing Chu You a finely crafted token.

The Jiushan Sect’s Sect Master Token: You have established a strategic alliance with the Jiushan Sect, and this token is the proof! This token serves a great purpose. In times of danger, it can generate a defensive light shield for you that can withstand up to 1 million damage points, lasting for 30 minutes. Cooldown time: One natural day. Number of uses: 2! This token also allows for voice communication with the Jiushan Sect from afar, with a reception time of 10 seconds! Note: Do not demand help from the others recklessly. Each usage leads to a decrease in personal favor, so use it wisely!

"Hahaha, okay, okay, if your sect ever needs me, just let me know, and I will be there as soon as possible."

"Haha, there’s no need to send anyone. If you need anything, just speak directly into the token and your message will be relayed to us."

"Oh? Really? That’s fascinating. By the way, do you have any more items of this sort?" Chu You asked curiously. If he could acquire such an item, it would mean that he, like the other players, could communicate with the NPCs at any time from afar.

"We’re sorry, but we don’t have any more of these. But you should know that producing a single token is an extremely complex process as it needs to resonate with the owner’s spiritual imprint. I honestly don’t know where they sell these tokens, but I can give you a clue. And maybe, just maybe, you can find the tokens there."

"Oh? Please tell me, where is that?"

"It’s the grand trade fair in Yunxian City, happening thirty days from now! A spectacle that only occurs once every five hundred years." The elder shared the same information the Ten Thousand God Sect gave him, solidifying the credibility of the news.

Returning to his guild loaded with his spoils, Chu You used his Return Skill to instantly teleport back to his guild. The moment he materialized in the deserted City Above the Clouds, he sensed something. Looking up into the sky, Chu You saw a figure flying down, seemingly preparing to leave. The figure seemed familiar and squinting his eyes, he realized it was Jiucaier.

After a moment of contemplation, he decided to use the teleportation array, transported to the Eastern Fortress the very next moment.

Upon arriving there and following the clues from his mission, he unfolded his wings and flew towards his destination. In no time, he found himself at the food supply building of the Eastern Fortress. Withdrawing his wings, he landed at the entrance where a team of level 100 NPCs stood guard. Upon sighting him, they bowed respectfully.

"Open the gate."

One of the NPCs instantly flung the gate wide open, and Chu You briskly walked through.

Here, Chu You’s authority is magnified to its maximum extent. He is the boss, and regardless of their levels, they have to obey his orders.

At this point, Chu You spotted an old man with a register in his hand. He was recording something while muttering with a grim look.

Target identified: Fortress Reserve Old Steward.

"Old Steward, you seem worried. What’s bothering you?" Chu You asked, approaching him.

"Ah, Commander! Are we expecting a major battle soon? How can we manage this? Our reserves are already scarce. Last time, the enemy penetrated our walls solely because of our lack of military supplies. This time, I fear... Never mind."

Sizing up the surroundings, Chu You agreed. The military reserves were indeed insufficient, and all the items on display could be seen at a glance.

"The last battle was brutal. Our soldiers fought for ten days and nights without any food. We were just a hair’s breadth away from letting the invaders of Japan into the inner city area, where tens of thousands of civilians have lived generation after generation." As the old steward thought back, his face softened, "Fortunately, our newly appointed Commander Jin Chuiduo arrived just in time. But even then, it took an intense battle to chase the enemy away. We weren’t even in a position to counterattack."

"Apparently, that battle was disastrous. Don’t worry, Old Steward. As long as I’m here, such a situation won’t happen again," Chu You confidently asserted.

Just then, a shout interrupted their conversation. They both turned toward the source of the noise, only to see a guard shooing away a group of children. Clad in thick cotton jackets with grimy faces, these kids had bright eyes. By the standards of the cultivation world, this indicated the presence of innate spiritual roots!

Seeing these agile children sprint away, Chu You inferred they must already possess some cultivation power.

"Commander, those kids came here looking for food. I apologize for the lax supervision."

"Hmm, there will soon be a large influx of supplies here, all of which are supposed to be war provisions. Tighten security here. How many exits are there?"

"Well, this warehouse has four exits. But after enduring so many battles, some cracks have formed in the warehouse, allowing these kids to sneak in. But rest assured, Commander, I will definitely strengthen the management," the old steward promised, hastily nodding.

"Old Steward, are the lives of the civilians in the fortress threatened now?" This can’t be happening, can it? Chu You worriedly wondered.

"Not that bad. The civilians’ food stock is sufficient; it’s stored in another area in the inner city. The reason they come here is to get the Heavenly and Earthly Spirit Stones."

"Heavenly and Earthly Spirit Stones possess a cultivation aura. Eating it not only fills the stomach but also helps cultivators make substantial progress in their cultivation. It solidifies the foundation and stimulates the combat power... The guards of the fortress, including Commander Jin Chuiduo, usually consume this."

Chu You nodded, indicating that he understood, "So, this place can produce Heavenly and Earthly Spirit Stones?"

"Yes, there is a Golden Qi Furnace within, and to obtain Heavenly and Earthly Spirit Stones, we usually allocate a part of the Gold Coins from the treasury to feed into the furnace," the old steward explained.

"Hmm, the reason for my visit is to provide logistical support for the Eastern Fortress. My bag of holding currently contains two types of military supplies, Dark Gold Magical Cores and God of Frenzy Wine. Well... Call 100 of the East Camp Prisoners from the Prisoner of War Camp to move things here, and arrange the supplies neatly!" Chu You instructed calmly.
