My Beasts Grind Proficiency For Me

Chapter 631: Chapter 145: The Flying Boat Agreement

True Monarch Xuan Yang’s eyebrow twitched. A Divinity Transformation Cultivator’s Cultivation Technique was the very core of a sect. If it were leaked, those with ulterior motives could study it for weaknesses and refine Magical Treasures specifically designed to counter it.

If exploited properly, it could even be enough to annihilate an entire sect.

"I only need the Cultivation Technique for the Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishment Stages," Yang Jing added.

True Monarch Xuan Yang exhaled slowly. Even if he agreed to hand over the complete Sect’s Foundation Method, the other Elders would never approve. Providing only the excerpts for the Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishment stages posed a much smaller risk.

The Red Sun Sect already made excerpts of the Qi Cultivation technique available to loyal families, allowing their children to build a solid foundation before officially joining the Sect to continue their training.

He took a Jade Scroll from within his robes and recorded the Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishment Chapters of the Red Sun Sect’s Foundation Method onto it.

"What compensation does Fellow Daoist Yang desire?"

True Monarch Xuan Yang steeled himself, prepared to pay an exorbitant price.

"One Tier Four Flying Boat and three Tier Three Flying Boats," Yang Jing stated his price.

Even knowing Yang Jing’s price would be sky-high, True Monarch Xuan Yang still gasped at the mention of a Tier Four Flying Boat. As heavy armaments, Flying Boats were incredibly difficult and costly to refine, far surpassing ordinary Magical Treasures. Even for the Red Sun Sect, which occupied the richest lands of the Central Continent, it would take two centuries of accumulation to afford the construction of a single Tier Four Flying Boat.

"Done," True Monarch Xuan Yang agreed instantly, his eyes flickering. He knew that one Tier Four Flying Boat and three Tier Three Flying Boats would drastically reduce the Red Sun Sect’s war-fighting capability.

But these Flying Boats were merely branches; the true root of the Red Sun Sect was its Divinity Transformation Cultivators. As long as they remained, any lost Flying Boats or treasures could eventually be reacquired.

If their line of Divinity Transformation Cultivators was broken, not even a Tier Four Flying Boat could prop up the Red Sun Sect.

Seeing True Monarch Xuan Yang agree, Yang Jing drew the Jade Scroll containing the Cultivation Technique into his hand.

"Allow me three days of seclusion to study this Cultivation Technique. Afterward, I can design a Puppet perfectly suited to the cultivators of the Red Sun Sect. The faster your esteemed sect provides the materials, the faster this Puppet can be refined."

"Of course," True Monarch Xuan Yang said with a solemn expression. "If there’s one thing the Red Sun Sect has in abundance, it’s a vault full of Celestial and Earthly Treasures."

He had been extremely discreet on his trip to the Thousand Islands Alliance, but ’secrets have a way of getting out.’ The news that the Red Sun Sect’s Divinity Transformation Cultivator had little time left likely wouldn’t stay hidden for much longer.

’This Puppet must be completed as soon as possible.’

「Three days later.」

True Monarch Xuan Yang received the Jade Scroll from Yang Jing and breathed a huge sigh of relief after inspecting it. Perhaps because the design was based on the Red Sun Sect’s own Cultivation Technique, they already possessed most of the Spiritual Materials listed. Gathering the remaining items wouldn’t take much time.

When a major sect puts its full effort into a task, its efficiency is astonishing. In less than five days, the Red Sun Sect had located the remaining Spiritual Materials. Nascent Soul Cultivators from within the sect disguised themselves, slipped away, and used various methods to bring the materials back.

「Fifteen days later.」

A Nascent Soul Elder proficient in Escape Techniques arrived at the Thousand Islands Alliance, carrying a Storage Ring filled with precious Spiritual Materials.

Throughout this time, True Monarch Xuan Yang had remained on Dawn Island, resting with his eyes closed. He appeared calm, but a storm was raging in his heart.

Only after taking the Storage Ring and confirming that every last Spiritual Material was present and accounted for did True Monarch Xuan Yang finally let out a long sigh of relief. He stood up and handed the entire contents of the Storage Ring to Yang Jing.

Yang Jing inspected the materials and discovered they had prepared two complete sets. Clearly, the Red Sun Sect wanted to leave no room for error in the creation of the Life-Extending Puppet.

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Yang, rest assured. In twenty days, this Puppet will be in your hands."

"Time is not the primary concern. Fellow Daoist, I must insist that you don’t rush the work and risk any errors in the refining process," True Monarch Xuan Yang said gravely.

After Yang Jing entered the Quiet Chamber, True Monarch Xuan Yang’s expression immediately changed:

"Old Ancestor, why did you deliver this personally?"

The face of the Nascent Soul Elder proficient in Escape Techniques wavered, transforming into that of a deathly pale old man. Though his aura was powerful, his entire being was shrouded in a persistent air of decay.

His life force was like a candle flame in the wind, threatening to extinguish at any moment.

"Across the entire Central Continent, countless people are counting down my final days. How long can your schemes keep this a secret? If I had waited like a fool back at the Sect, this Puppet might have been intercepted en route. Even your own life would have been at risk. If that were to happen, the Red Sun Sect would suffer a grievous loss of Vitality. We might truly enter a decline from which we would never recover."

The old man let out a deep sigh. Within the Red Sun Sect, only True Monarch Xuan Yang currently possessed the potential to reach Divinity Transformation. If he were to die as well, the entire Sect would be unable to produce another Divinity Transformation Cultivator for at least three thousand years.

Though worried, he was a Divinity Transformation Cultivator, after all, and quickly regained his composure.

At that moment, Iron Head, Yinjiao, and Si Taizhen were busy organizing and training the newly recruited cultivators, selecting soldiers from among them.

Without proper training and organization, the recruited Independent Cultivators were nothing more than a disorderly mob. On a real battlefield, they would rout at the slightest sign of trouble. A panicked rout of Independent Cultivators would then become a liability in itself, tying up the Six Sects’ attention and energy.

Most of Yang Jing’s disciples had military experience. Si Taizhen, in particular, had been the Crown Prince of a nation and commanded her own administration; they would certainly not make such a basic error.

Those who could embark on the path of cultivation were by no means fools. In fact, many of these Independent Cultivators were quite talented; they only seemed mediocre because they had never been given an opportunity to shine.

After a little more than ten days of training, the recruited Independent Cultivators had already begun to take the shape of a proper army.

However, cultivators often fought using Array Formations. To achieve the absolute discipline required for thousands of individuals to move as one and form a Grand Array would take much more time and coordination.

"What do you think of that young woman?" the old man asked, his gaze falling upon Si Taizhen.

True Monarch Xuan Yang glanced over. His Power was less than the old man’s, so his gaze immediately drew Si Taizhen’s attention, and she turned to look. Seeing it was one of Yang Jing’s guests, she turned away again.

"I have heard of her. To have such an astonishing combat record right after her Nascent Soul Formation... even if she relied on the power of a Magical Treasure, her future accomplishments will be boundless."

The old man shook his head.

"More than just boundless. Her foundation is so profound that no one in the Red Sun Sect can compare. Her life force is abundant, and she is still young. I’d say she has a sixty to seventy percent chance of achieving Divinity Transformation."

Many cultivators who live to the end of their natural lifespans are not necessarily the most powerful of their generation, but their perception is always incredibly sharp. They know when to advance and when to retreat, and they are masters at avoiding calamity.

The old man could tell with a single glance that Si Taizhen and her companions were all exceptionally rare Dao Seeds.

"This Yang Jing is an extraordinary person. Even if this Puppet plan fails, you must not offend him."
