Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1225: Chapter 720: Formation Device System_2

Constructing a complete Formation Instrument Assistance System that integrates detection, trapping enemies, attacking, defending, and amplification all in one!

This system, initially applied to Sect Disciples, earns some Spirit Stones.

Then, with the support of Spirit Stones, it continues to be improved.

Someday, once this Formation process and Artifact Refining procedures mature, and my own experience is enriched, I can attempt to extend it to the lower levels of the Cultivation World, developing relatively economical Spiritual Artifacts for cultivating production and easy-to-learn accompanying Formations.

From the Cultivators’ slaughter, to Tao Cultivation production.

From customized to standardized.

From expensive to affordable.

In this way, gradually popularize…

“Comprehend the Heavenly Dao, benefiting all beings.”

True Formations should not only serve the few, but truly benefit all under heaven.

Mo Hua was startled, his mind clarified, and his understanding of Formation and the ways of the world deepened…

Afterward, Mo Hua could hardly wait to start researching Armor and Taoist Robes suitable for the “Five Elements Source Formation.”

However, such armor is quite special.

The heritage of the Five Element Ultimate Formation was on the brink of extinction, with hardly any records of compatible Spiritual Artifacts or Formation media left behind.

Even if there were, Mo Hua would not be able to find them.

He could only feel his way forward gradually, then discuss it with Master Gu.

This would take some time.

About a month later, Master Gu personally visited Taixu Gate, talked with Mo Hua, and then drafted a prototype of the armor.

Master Gu planned to go back and give it a try at refining it.

As for the result, he wasn’t certain since Mo Hua’s requirements were peculiar, and he had never refined such a type of Spiritual Artifact before.

But Master Gu didn’t ask too much.

After all, the issue of Formations was too intricate and obscure, and he didn’t understand them. He only needed to take care of the Artifact Refining aspect.

After the discussion, Master Gu left Taixu Gate and then made a trip to the stores within the city.

He had sold a customized Spiritual Artifact and was going to collect Spirit Stones.

And in this month, Spiritual Artifacts sold very well, generating a substantial amount of Spirit Stones.

Inside Tai Xu City, within Gu Family’s store.

The clerk in the store couldn’t help but marvel as he handed over the Storage Bag filled with Spirit Stones to Master Gu.

“Inside Taixu Gate, I wonder where all these rich suckers come from, willing to spend so many Spirit Stones on your strange and curious Spiritual Artifacts.”

He had a good relationship with Master Gu on ordinary days, so he spoke more casually.

Master Gu chuckled: “That’s because you don’t understand…”

The intricacies within… Artifact Refining techniques, workflow optimization, Formation Diagram design, Formation inscription, along with the demand and market for Spiritual Artifacts.

It seems simple on the surface, but Master Gu knows that by himself, a Third Grade Artifact Refiner, can only achieve so much.

A vast majority of the credit should be attributed to Young Master Mo.

Master Gu also couldn’t understand where Young Master Mo got such an extensive network within the Sect.

He shook his head, turning to the clerk, and said with a smile:

“I’ll treat you to a drink at noon.”

The clerk happily agreed and said, “Great, I’ll share in your good fortune.”

The two had a spiritual meal and good wine in Tai Xu City at noon.

As the store’s matters would still need the clerk’s help in the future, Master Gu was quite generous.

The clerk was very happy.

With a bit of an alcohol buzz, both the host and guest enjoyed themselves.

After the drinks, they each went their separate ways back to their residences.

Master Gu had to return to Solitary Mountain City to continue preparing the next batch of Spiritual Artifacts.

On the carriage to Solitary Mountain City, Master Gu felt the numerous heavy Storage Bags at his waist, filled with mixed feelings, yet still somewhat incredulous.

Five hundred thousand Spirit Stones!

The smaller Spiritual Artifacts were cheaper, the larger ones more expensive, the average price of about five thousand Spirit Stones each; a hundred pieces were sold within a month.

After deducting costs, this was an exceedingly considerable income.

Moreover, this was just the beginning.

Master Gu’s disciple, Da Chuan, was also shocked.

Growing up in hardship, he had never seen so many Spirit Stones before.

After some thought, Master Gu instructed: “Stop at the next Immortal City, let’s buy some wine and meat to treat everyone when we return.”

Da Chuan was thrilled and quickly responded with a laugh:

“Yes, Master!”

Life at Gushan Refining Workshop had always been frugal, and it had been a long time since they could enjoy a hearty drink and meal.

Immediately he couldn’t help but exclaim: “Master, how should we spend all these Spirit Stones? I feel like they can never be all spent… ”

Master Gu chuckled.

This naive young man, so used to poverty, had only known what it tasted like since birth and had no idea what to do with an abundance of Spirit Stones.

Even if he thought about it, he wouldn’t come up with anything.

Then Master Gu thought again and felt a bit of heartache.

Five hundred thousand Spirit Stones…

Quite a lot.

With these Spirit Stones, the Refining Workshop could acquire excellent Refining Furnaces, purchase many top-grade Refining Materials, and buy some rare Refining Diagrams.

The remaining Spirit Stones could allow them to live without worry about food and drink for a good while.

This amount of Spirit Stones could be described as bountiful.

But…

Master Gu sighed internally.

But these Spirit Stones were actually very few.

They might merely be the cost of a single banquet for some families.

Or perhaps just the price of a mount, a carriage, a feast, a fine wine, or a beauty…

Such is the unfairness of the world.

Master Gu glanced at Da Chuan again.

This simple and suffering child, who knew nothing.

But perhaps it was better he didn’t…

A plain life is true life.

Once exposed to the glamor of the world, swept up in earthly desires, and without a strong Taoist Heart, one is bound to become warped and eventually destroyed.

Looking at Da Chuan, Master Gu smiled and said:

“There’s much that can be done; we’ll talk more when we get back. Let’s do things one by one, but first, let everyone have a good meal, and yet…”
