This trip to the Plane Battlefield made Jun Changxiao understand that this kind of place was definitely not somewhere one person could play around in, unless their strength was powerful enough to crush everything.
No problem.
Next time he could bring people with him.
Moreover, that female system had also said the more people there were, the faster the territory would expand.
Of course.
Having experienced nearly being unable to return from entering the battlefield, Sect Master Jun naturally needed to start preparing for rainy days.
The first thing to consider was that bringing people in was fine, but he must ensure their safety, rather than truly letting them live or die by fate and fortune inside.
The system said: “Host lacks high-grade healing pills, high-grade talismans, and high-grade weapons and equipment!”
“…”
Jun Changxiao knew this thing was promoting sales, but it really was speaking about what he truly lacked. However, if he actually wanted to fulfill all these wishes, how many contribution points would he need to pile up?
Moreover, he couldn’t borrow the Plane Battlefield to go to other worlds. As long as he expanded the territory and opened the Merit Shop to see what was inside, that would be enough—there was no need to make such a big fuss.
“Let’s refresh high-grade healing pills first.”
Jun Changxiao made his decision and skillfully pulled open… the Basic Shop.
The system said: “Something this high-grade, Host wanting to refresh it in the Basic Shop is absolutely impossible.”
“Then where do I refresh it?”
“High-Tier Shop!”
“…”
Jun Changxiao fell silent.
Ever since he had the ability to purchase from the High-Tier Shop, he had never refreshed it, mainly because refreshing it once required 10,000 contribution points!
The system said: “Although the goods in the current High-Tier Shop all look decent, there really aren’t many that can truly help Host and the sect. I suggest refreshing rather than saving them for the New Year.”
This guy was stimulating Jun Changxiao to consume.
However, what it said made sense too. Right now, aside from a few items in the High-Tier Shop, many didn’t have necessary purchase value.
“How many contribution points have you saved up?” Jun Changxiao asked.
The system said: “During this period, I’ve already helped Host save up over 70,000 contribution points.”
“That little?” Jun Changxiao frowned.
Disciples clearing the Life-Death Secret Realm, each time they passed one they got 1 contribution point. Now after so much time had passed, with tens of thousands of disciples, calculating that half succeeded each time, it should be at least 100,000 to start with, right?
The system said: “Disciples’ levels are getting higher and higher, the difficulty coefficient of clearing stages is getting lower and lower. Some inner disciples even form teams to bring low-level disciples to clear simple mode, so no contribution point rewards are given.”
The Life-Death Secret Realm was a good place for Eternal Sect disciples to grind levels.
But after grinding for a long time, when their level got high, the experience points given would become less and less, and contribution points might not even be given.
For example, Li Qingyang and Xiao Zuiji and others.
With their current general Seven to Eight-Star Warrior King cultivation, going to clear simple mode gave 0 experience and contribution. Even clearing normal mode gave very little experience—going in many times might not raise their realm.
As for difficult mode, although they could clear it and it gave large amounts of experience and contribution points, Eternal Sect disciples couldn’t completely clear it without injury. Calculating it all, it didn’t give much either.
Right now, relying on the Life-Death Secret Realm to obtain contribution points could only depend on newly entered disciples whose realms were rising, because they were right in the golden stage of level grinding.
“Fine.”
Jun Changxiao said: “First give me fifty thousand.”
“Ding! Contribution points: 54,480/50,000.”
“Ding! Contribution points overflow…”
“Swish!”
He pulled open the High-Tier Shop.
Jun Changxiao looked again, and after confirming there were no items that had to be bought, he gritted his teeth and used his mind to scroll down. At that moment, his hand was trembling.
“Ding! Contribution points 44,480/50,000.”
After expending ten thousand contribution points, all the goods in the High-Tier Shop were replaced, presenting—
Mixed Origin Stone.
Advanced Dragon Flame Technique.
Eight Desolations Heaven-Breaking Axe.
“…”
Jun Changxiao continued looking down until he saw an item named ‘Superior Healing Pill Formula’, and his eyes immediately brightened.
“Look!”
The system said: “I told you so!”
Jun Changxiao clicked on the description—
Item: Superior Healing Pill Formula.
Description: Upon purchase, automatically matches with the Pill Hall, obtaining the method to refine Superior Healing Pills.
Effect: As long as a martial artist has one breath of life remaining, consuming a refined Superior Healing Pill can quickly restore them to full health.
Advantage: Not only can it restore injuries, it can also rapidly replenish expended spiritual energy, thereby instantly reaching a full state.
Drawback: Limited to Warrior Emperor and Warrior Saint level martial artists, and can only consume one pill per day.
Price: 10,000 contribution points.
“It can even restore spiritual energy?”
Jun Changxiao said happily: “This is a good thing.”
Basic and Medium healing pills only restored injuries. When a person was severely injured, exhausted, and trapped in a dangerous situation, consuming them basically had no effect.
Superior Healing Pills could restore both injuries and spiritual energy, which was equivalent to being severely injured and immediately recovering to continue fighting with enemies.
“I must buy this!”
Jun Changxiao didn’t think much about it and spent 10,000 contribution points to purchase it.
As levels gradually increased and combat methods diversified, as long as martial artists were injured, their meridians would be damaged affecting their spiritual core. Pills that restored both injuries and spiritual energy were truly essential items for going out and getting into fights!
“Ding!”
The formula automatically matched with the Pill Hall.
Clicking on the refining description, over fifty types of materials immediately appeared.
“Damn!”
Jun Changxiao said: “Isn’t this too many!”
“The better the effect of a pill, the more materials needed—this is basic common sense, okay?” the system said.
Jun Changxiao said: “How do you explain two pounds of meat and two stalks of Hunger-Quelling Grass refining Medium Beast Pills that are several times stronger than Basic ones?”
“This…” the system was speechless.
“Sect Master.”
Li Luoqiu walked in and said: “The Hunger-Quelling Grass is far from meeting collection standards. I’m afraid it will soon be out of stock.”
Jun Changxiao: “…”
He was just using Medium Beast Pills to slap the system in the face, and you suddenly came out to slap my face!
The Procurement Hall had been purchasing large quantities of Hunger-Quelling Grass.
Although this stuff was all over the mountains, its growth period was one year, so after a long time it simply couldn’t keep up with supply.
Moreover, merchants in Qingyang Prefecture knew Eternal Sect was purchasing long-term, so they went to dig up Hunger-Quelling Grass every day. All the major mountains had already been dug completely bare.
Sect Master Jun murmured: “Need to find a way to achieve sustainable supply.”
There were hundreds of thousands of fierce beasts in Tiegu Mountain that needed to be fed. Medium Beast Pills absolutely could not run out of stock.
For medicinal materials, he definitely needed to find Old Wei.
Jun Changxiao came to the Medicine Hall and handed over the list of medicinal materials for refining Superior Healing Pills, saying: “These dozens of medicinal materials—how long before they can be planted?”
He didn’t have the medicinal materials.
But he had many seeds.
Moreover, the Procurement Hall had been purchasing continuously. As long as they had quality, they would buy them and store them for future needs.
In Jun Changxiao’s words:
I can wait for various formulas to be refreshed, but I absolutely can’t let formulas wait for materials.
He really did have foresight.
Otherwise, right now he’d have to frantically think of ways to find materials to refine Superior Healing Pills.
Actually, Sect Master Jun could also plant all the seeds and keep them as backup, but the project would be enormous, and not knowing what materials a refreshed formula might need, he could only gather seeds first.
Old Wei looked carefully and said: “Although there are many types, the quality isn’t too high. Probably three or four months.”
“Let’s plant a batch first,” Jun Changxiao said.
The Plane Battlefield had level restrictions, so he was destined not to bring many people in. Equipping personnel with a few pills each would be enough—there was no need for large-scale production temporarily.
“Mm.”
“Oh right.”
Jun Changxiao said: “Assign some people from the Medicine Hall to plant Tiegu Mountain full of Hunger-Quelling Grass.”
Old Wei was immediately dumbfounded.
Strictly speaking, Hunger-Quelling Grass was just an ordinary plant, not medicinal material at all. Having Medicine Hall members plant this stuff would definitely be beneath their dignity.
Jun Changxiao stroked his chin and said: “We can designate a pasture area specifically for planting Hunger-Quelling Grass.”
“…”
Old Wei’s mouth twitched.
He could already imagine the scene of professional herbalists cultivating Hunger-Quelling Grass.
