‘However, both the Nether River Patriarch and Green Hill Foxes have strong backing, and there could be trouble if I try to make things clear,’ Jiang He thought to himself as he lit a cigarette.
Barring the Saints, the Nether River Patriarch was one of the most powerful people in existence.
Him aside, there were many elites among the Sura race that served him, and their overall strength would probably slightly superior to Sky Demons’.
On the other hand, while the Green Hill Foxes were not as troublesome as the Nether River Patriarch, their clan had backing since some of their kind served Nüwa herself…
So annoying!
Rubbing his temples, Jiang He scowled and muttered, “Things might be easier with the Nether River Patriarch since I didn’t steal my Yuan Killer Sword from him, and at worse I just have to write him a letter and explain the entire course of events… I’m sure an elder of his standing would not put me on the spot.”
“As for the Green Hill Foxes… I’ve killed too many of their elites, and an ugly fight might be unavoidable!”
“In the end, I am too weak because I’ve only started cultivating recently.”
“If I were a Saint right now, so what if I took up my Yuan Killer Sword and wiped out the Green Hill Boxes?”
Jiang He could not help feeling pressured at the thought.
“It seems that it has been 2 months since I have gained any improvement…”
His cultivation was still full-fledged Grand Luo.
Likewise, in martial arts, he remained at the twelfth-tier of Realm King.
He had not been earning many Farm Points either.
Others aside…
There were not many things on Earth with which he could earn loads of Farm Points.
“Perhaps I really should go to the celestial battlefield, and think of a way to purchase truckloads of Dao Enlightenment Pellets and Body Honing Pellets. Would I have to worry about not having enough Farm Points after that?”
Jiang He had planted two of those pellets before.
A single tree of Dao Enlightenment Pellets would produce one hundred Dao Enlightenment Pellets, and each pellet would get him 1,000 Farm Points. In other words, he would earn 100,000 Farm Points.
Though the Body Honing Pellets were less than ideal, each tree would still earn him 50,000 Farm Points.
Jiang He did the math.
Ascending to the thirteenth-tier of martial arts would cost a trillion Farm Points, whereas reaching the fourteenth-tier would cost ten trillion…
“That would mean a total of eleven trillion Farm Points, which could only be earned from 110 million Dao Enlightenment Pellets… I wonder if there are that many in the Celestial Battlefield…”
Jiang He sighed emotionally…
Of course, he should not be just aiming for Dao Enlightenment Pellets.
There was not just one rank-eight pellet after all.
Likewise, there would be many different types rank-seven immortal pellets, and not just the Body Honing Pellets.
“Trumbo!”
Jiang He called out.
Trumbo, who was sprawling out nearby to sunbathe, rose to its rear legs lazily. Adjusting its reading glasses with its tiny paw, it slowly walked up to Jiang He. “Looking for me, Master?”
Jiang He felt a vein bulging on his forehead!
This little wretch was behaving more like the old scholars spoken of in legends, and even his speech was slowly and excessively polite.
Resisting the urge to give Trumbo a beating, Jiang He instructed, “Go round up everything we have, and see how many immortal crystals and mystic treasures we can afford to part with.”
“There’s no need to.”
Trumbo put its little pudgy pawn together and calmly said, “Right now, we have a total of 300 million immortal crystals, 180 mediocre-grade immortal items, seventy superior-grade immortal items, fourteen premium-grade immortal items, four inferior-grade acquired soul treasures and one mediocre-grade acquired soul treasures.”
“In addition, there are 3,000 Dao Enlightenment Pellets and 8,600 Body Honing Pellets.”
Right now, Trumbo could be considered Jiang He’s little butler.
For example, Jiang He had not touched a single immortal crystal when after they were planted. He ordered Dumbo, the Seven Bottle Gourd Brothers, and his monkeys to pick them all up and hand them to Trumbo.
There were some mystic treasures that he dumped to Trumbo right after he plucked them as well.
“Save the Dao Enlightenment Pellets. Drink the Old Tea of Enlightenment if you want to gain enlightenment. As for the Body Honing Pellets…”
Jiang He thought about it and said, “All of you are now Heavenly Immortals who have cultivated martial arts up to Ten-Millenia tier as well… the Body Honing Pellets refines immortal bodies, so take a few hundred pellets for yourselves each to find out how good its effects are.”
“Oh, and I still have more than 200 million immortal crystals, 3,000 inferior-grade immortal items, 1,800 mediocre-grade immortal items, 900 superior-grade immortal items, 400 premium-grade immortal items, and over ninety acquired soul items.”
After some thinking, Jiang He took out all those immortal crystals, immortal items, and acquired soul treasures and gave them to Trumbo.
“You’ll be holding on to these immortal crystals.”
“As for mystic treasures and the like… those Golden Immortals and True Immortals don’t have weapons, do they?”
“So, distribute a set to each of them, and you will safekeep what remains… this is our startup capital when we head to the celestial battlefield.”
“Yes, Master.”
Trumbo left reverently.
Jiang He then called Dumbo, the Seven Bottle Gourd Brothers, and the Nine Wise Rock Monkeys to him.
The Nine Wise Rock Monkeys were the strongest among them, as they were born as Heavenly Immortals. While they had not managed to ascend due to the restraining Fortune Qi on Earth, they were accomplished in martial arts as well—thanks to Jiang He’s firm grooming, they were more or less showing signs of reaching Undying, the eleventh-tier of martial arts.
Of course…
They had not cultivated that many godly martial arts, numbering just up to thirty-six. Aside from one that was developed naturally after ascending beyond Yin-Yang tier, the remaining thirty-five were all taught by Jiang He.
On the other hand, the Seven Bottle Gourd Brothers were all Heavenly Immortals, and had reached Ten-Millenia in martial arts. Like the monkeys, they had cultivated only thirty-six godly martial arts as well, and the same applied for Dumbo and Trumbo.
Having cultivated both martial arts and immortal arts, their abilities were far beyond average Heavenly Immortals’ and would not have to fear them if they were in a one-on-one situation. In fact, the Seven Bottle Gourd Brothers who were connected in heart and mind could slay even True Immortals.
The only ones that worried Jiang He were Dumbo and Trumbo.
They were pets with average bloodlines, and they were reaching their limit even though they were strengthened by planting.
“I heard that there are many divine beast bloodlines over at the celestial battlefields, and I could come up with a way to change bloodlines for both Dumbo and Trumbo…” Jiang He muttered. “I would be heading to the celestial battlefield soon, so you guys could come with me.”
“By the way, Hu Mei…”
Jiang He called out to his maid and passed her his bank card, saying, “The password is ******, so head there later and transfer everyone a hundred million dollars so that they can prepare by buying some Earth specialty products. It would be a long journey and there is no telling when we would return.”
With his orders given, Jiang He rose and left his farm.
Stepping on the clouds and arriving above Lingzhou City, he looked down to find green fields outside the city, with farms of wheat and rice filling the area.
While the towns and villages near Lingzhou City were not as lively and prosperous as before, life had been restored there. Many citizens who were relocated inside the city were now slowly returning from their abandoned homes, ploughing their lands that were left untouched over a year and starting to plant various grains and crops.
In fact, there were strong martial artist auras steaming from each village.
Jiang He’s eyes darted everywhere as he nonchalantly observed eight villages and two towns, realizing then that there would be Congenital-tier martial artists, which was the second tier in martial arts, along with martial artists of the third tier.
The third tier of martial arts was Blank-tier.
Martial artist of that level would not lose out to divine-conversion tier martial artists of the old system, and they might even be a match for some Golden Pellet cultivators.
And in Lingzhou City, there were countless Congenital and Blank-tier martial artists, along with dozens of Tempest-tier elites and nine Yin-Yang-tier elites.
Jiang He’s immortal will swept out.
Duan Tianhe, Cheng Dognfeng, Chen Jingzhou who was standing guard over Lingzhou City, Three Blades Lin of the Martial Arts Department (MAD) and that young Yang fellow who once headed to the Tantra Sect with Jiang He were now all Yin-Yang tier.
Jiang He was not acquainted with three of the four remaining Yin-Yang tier martial artist.
The fourth one was a woman…
Jiang He frowned.
A voluptuous figure that was at least a 36D… seemed familiar.
“Sister Bai?”
A name popped up in Jiang He’s head just then.
The nine Yin-Yang martial elites varied in abilities. The strongest was Three Blades Lin who cultivated 36 godly martial arts, while Cheng Dongfeng, who was next best, had cultivated thirty-five. In comparison, Chen Jingzhou had cultivated thirty-three while Duan Tianhe had cultivated thirty.
Right now, there were numerous Yin-Yang tier martial elites within Hua Nation borders, with an approximate number having been published at the Warrior Home forums just two days ago… MAD statistics suggested that there might almost be ten thousand Yin-Yang tier martial elites, but scarcely any reached Deva, the sixth-tier.
Even old martial art veterans such as Elder Guo, Dong Haichuan, and Yang Luchan were all stuck at the fifth-tier.
The reason for that was because they wanted to cultivated more godly martial arts. In comparison, the other martial artists who were about to reach the sixth-tier were either limited in talented, or were people as demonic as Wang Hou himself.
Right now, with the new martial arts system being propagated and everything still remaining in the test phase, the godly martial arts that those martial artists cultivated were spread by interactions between everyone. That is why the godly martial arts that many martial artists cultivated would overlap.
The MAD had therefore issued a ruling.
Once someone created a new godly martial art, they could choose to work with the MAD to sell it on their platform. One reason for that was the seller would create a sum of cultivation resources for themselves, while the second reason was so every other martial artist across the world would have more godly martial arts to choose from.
Right now, the godly martial arts recorded in the MAD numbered over 300.
Of course, a third was thanks to Wang Hou’s contribution.
He had cultivated 108 godly martial arts as well, and ascended just half a month ago.
“I wonder what level Minister Wang has reached now… well, it’s fine. I could go grumble with him for a bit before I head to the celestial battlefield…”
