The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2468: Chapter 2468: Heavenly Cultivation Tower

The construction of the functions of a Cultivation Tower consumes a great deal of resources, but once it is opened to the public, it can steadily earn vast amounts of resources.

In the long term, the Cultivation Tower is an institution capable of generating tremendous wealth. Precisely because of this, almost every city has a Cultivation Tower. However, as the functional construction costs are terrifyingly high, those cities can only build Low-level Cultivation Towers. Moreover, even the cultivation effects of these Low-level Cultivation Towers may be heavily curtailed.

Jing Yan’s plan, however, is to construct a true Advanced Cultivation Tower, an Advanced Cultivation Tower that surpasses all other Advanced Cultivation Towers.

The Cultivation Tower of Hongmeng City has a total of nine layers. The lowest three layers are just ordinary Cultivation Rooms, usable by Immortal Rhythm Netherworld Realm, ordinary Nether Sky Realm, and Cultivators of even lower realms. In the middle three layers, Jing Yan will add a certain proportion of Fire Cloud Crystal Stone into the Black Crystal Stone, so that it will have a clearly noticeable cultivation effect for Immortal Venerable Realm Experts. As for the seventh layer and the Eighth Layer, Jing Yan will further place a certain amount of Netherworld Crystal Stone inside.

Netherworld Crystal Stone is a type of resource that can nourish and enhance the Divine Soul Body.

In Faro Heaven, only the Yellow Spring Cave contains this resource. In Kunling Heaven, there may be similar resources, but they must likewise be extremely difficult to obtain. If the Cultivation Tower contains Netherworld Crystal Stone, one can imagine how powerfully tempting it will be to Cultivators.

Back then in the Yellow Spring Cave, Jing Yan obtained one large Yellow Springs ore veins and half of a small ore veins. He still has a great many Netherworld Crystal Stone on his person; taking out a portion for use in the Cultivation Tower is no burden for Jing Yan.

In the seventh layer, a small amount of Low-grade Netherworld Crystal Stone will be added. In the Eighth Layer, a large amount of Low-level Netherworld Crystal Stone will be added.

As for the Ninth Floor, Jing Yan plans to add High Level Netherworld Crystal Stone. Only that tiny group of the wealthiest Cultivators in the Heavenly Domain will have the financial ability to use the Ninth Floor of Hongmeng City’s Cultivation Tower.

If nothing unexpected happens, Jing Yan will follow this idea to carry out the functional construction of the Cultivation Tower.

At present, Hongmeng City has already accumulated quite a lot of Black Crystal Stone. Together with the Black Crystal Stone remaining from the previous sale of Divine Soul Items, there should be no problem for the early-stage construction of the Cultivation Tower. The key point is that the Fire Cloud Crystal Stone and Netherworld Crystal Stone Jing Yan plans to use do not need to be purchased elsewhere. If he had to buy these two resources from outside, Jing Yan would only be able to stare helplessly; in the short term, there is absolutely no way he could have so many basic resources to purchase them.

”Luo Hao, come to me immediately!” Jing Yan, inside the Cultivation Tower, sent a voice transmission to Luo Hao.

Luo Hao currently has no specific work.

After receiving Jing Yan’s voice transmission, he moved his mind.

”Bring all the Array Masters of Hongmeng City here. The Array Formation of the city’s formations will be temporarily suspended.” Jing Yan’s voice continued to transmit into Luo Hao’s mind.

Summoned by the City Lord, Luo Hao did not dare delay in the slightest. He immediately left his residence and gathered those Array Masters who were in the midst of arranging the city Big Array.

Currently in Hongmeng City, there are already seven Array Masters. Among them, two were previously members of the Robber Organization. Another three were later recruited into Hongmeng City as Array Masters. The last two are Thunder Domain Remnant, Array Masters who came to Hongmeng City together with Bai Han.

”My lord, do you have any orders?” One Thunder Domain Remnant asked Luo Hao.

The two Thunder Domain Remnant naturally knew who Luo Hao was, and their attitude was respectful. As for the other five, although they were not familiar with Luo Hao before, they likewise did not dare to be rude to him.

”The City Lord has ordered us to go over immediately. The arrangement of the city Big Array will be suspended for now.” Luo Hao said to these seven Array Masters.

”Yes!” The seven hurriedly responded.

Luo Hao led the seven Array Masters and quickly arrived at the Cultivation Tower where Jing Yan was. After Luo Hao and the others entered the Cultivation Tower, Jing Yan was already waiting inside.

”City Lord, they have all arrived.” Luo Hao said after paying respects to Jing Yan.

”Mm!” Jing Yan nodded slightly.

The seven Array Masters also bowed and paid respects to Jing Yan.

”There’s no need for so many formalities. I summoned you today to assign a task to you. This task has the highest priority. The city Big Array’s arrangement is to be completely suspended.” Jing Yan said.

The seven Array Masters looked at one another, each guessing in his heart what the task might be. Even Luo Hao did not know what the City Lord intended to do at this moment. Since City Lord Jing Yan called over the Array Masters, the task should be related to Formations. Yet he himself is not an Array Master, so why did the City Lord ask him to come as well?

”City Lord, this place... could it be intended to be made into a Cultivation Tower?” One Array Master suddenly spoke. This person was an Array Master recruited from outside after Hongmeng City was established, and his ability was quite good.

”Oh? You can see that?” Jing Yan looked at this Array Master with some surprise.

”To answer City Lord, I once participated in the construction of Cultivation Towers in other cities. So when I see the layout here, it feels very familiar, and I guessed that this building might be intended as a Cultivation Tower.” That Array Master said with his head lowered.

Jing Yan’s eyes lit up. ”Good! Very good! Extremely good!”

Jing Yan had not expected that, among the few Array Masters in his Hongmeng City, there would be one who had actually participated in the construction of a Cultivation Tower. With this, the operation becomes much simpler.

”What is your name?” Jing Yan asked.

”City Lord, my name is Niu Bo, I am a Basic-level Immortal Array Master.” Niu Bo said.

”Mm, Niu Bo, from this moment on, you are the Array Master Director of Hongmeng City. You six will henceforth follow Director Niu Bo’s instructions.” Jing Yan directly promoted Niu Bo.

Niu Bo Wen Yan was overjoyed, his eyes turning red.

”Many thanks, City Lord!” Niu Bo said, his voice trembling.

”Time is tight. I will now assign tasks to you. Niu Bo, pay close attention. From now on, you will take the lead in Array Formation; absolutely no mistakes are allowed.” Jing Yan said in a solemn tone.

”This subordinate will certainly exert his full strength.” Niu Bo immediately said with a Zheng Zhong expression.

Niu Bo had participated in the functional construction of a Cultivation Tower, and naturally understood the enormity of the expenditure for such a tower. In such a massive project, even a minor flaw could lead to great losses.

Next, Jing Yan arranged specific work for these Array Masters. The bottom three layers of this Cultivation Tower are relatively Basic. Under Niu Bo’s lead, their functional construction can be carried out smoothly. The main point to pay attention to is differentiating the cultivation effects of the First Layer, Second Layer, and third layer Cultivation Rooms. The effect of the Second Layer must be better than that of the First Layer, and the third layer must be better than the Second Layer. Jing Yan would clearly explain all the specific parameters to Niu Bo. Niu Bo is also an Immortal Array Master—though only a Basic-level Immortal Array Master, he is still an Immortal Array Master. He understood Jing Yan’s requirements as soon as he heard them, and could even draw inferences from one case to another at times, which made Jing Yan very pleased.

As for the middle three layers and the top three layers of the Cultivation Tower, Jing Yan would have to personally handle them. Even if the Array Masters below could offer some assistance, their ability would only be enough to support Jing Yan’s Array Formation.
