CHAPTER 708: CHAPTER 302: SOME REJOICE, SOME WORRY - LII XIAOLAN’S SCHEME_3

Hearing White-forehead Qilin Bai E say this, Lin Xuankong couldn’t help but think back to the bamboo tower where Immortal Lord Luoshui had promised him enough materials to refine Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts.

Apparently, this matter announced by White-forehead Qilin Immortal Bai E is what Immortal Lord Luoshui is planning to collect materials for! But I had never expected Immortal Lord Luoshui to be so generous. She’s ordering each Immortal Sect to prepare one hundred sets of materials for refining Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts every month, and all the costs for these Immortal Sects to purchase refining materials will be covered by her... There are exactly one hundred and twenty-six Immortal Sects present. Overall, doesn’t that mean that each month, I’ll receive twelve thousand six hundred sets of materials for refining Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts from Immortal Lord Luoshui? This is multiple times more than the monthly tribute I receive from those seventy-five Immortal Sects! In this way, over ten months, plus the tribute from those seventy-five Immortal Sects, I estimate I’ll receive a total of one hundred and fifty thousand sets of materials for refining Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts... If all these materials are refined, it would equate to one hundred and fifty thousand Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts! Combined with my existing tens of thousands, the total could reach two hundred thousand pieces! Hopefully, the resources from those Immortal Sects and numerous Dynasties in the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region can gather so many materials... Moreover, it seems that for a while, I’ll need to work hard, and Miss Xiao will have to work hard too. But this kind of hard work is very blissful!

While Lin Xuankong was delightfully indulging in these thoughts, the Earth Immortals who heard White-forehead Qilin Bai E’s command all responded in unison, stating they would definitely carry out Immortal Lord Luoshui’s decree.

Although preparing one hundred sets of materials for refining Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts each month was already almost beyond the capacity of some of the smaller Immortal Sects present, it was, after all, an order from Immortal Lord Luoshui. Never mind preparing one hundred sets of materials for refining Immortal Artifacts; even if each Immortal Sect had to prepare two hundred sets, they would still comply, albeit reluctantly. Besides, White-forehead Qilin Immortal Bai E had already stated that the Profound Truth Jade needed to purchase the materials would be covered by the Luo Water Immortal Sect. Which Earth Immortal would dare to object to a task that merely involved running errands?

Not a single Earth Immortal in the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region dared to disobey an order from Immortal Lord Luoshui. Even in the Central Divine Dynasty Central Earth, if Immortal Lord Luoshui uttered a single word, countless Earth Immortals would willingly risk their lives for her!

Among them, the Earth Immortals from Immortal Sects like the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, Beimang Immortal Sect, and Western Nether Immortal Sect were relatively fine. However, the Earth Immortals from those seventy-five Immortal Sects that had to pay monthly tribute to Lin Xuankong now felt a bitter taste in their hearts. Originally, they had to mobilize their entire Immortal Sect’s strength each month to collect refining materials for Lin Xuankong. Now, with this order from the Luo Water Immortal Sect, their difficulty in collecting materials had directly doubled. From now on, not only would the disciples of these Immortal Sects be sent out, but even they, the Earth Immortals, would probably have to run errands everywhere!

At this time, Sect Leader Li of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect suddenly cupped his hands in the crowd and said, "Qilin Immortal, the esteemed Immortal Lord Luoshui has traveled billions of miles to the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region to help us resist the army of the Profound Yin Demon Sect. Not only is she preparing to engage in battle personally, but she also intends to set up the Luo Water Grotto Heaven Array for our seven Immortal Sects!

"The great righteousness of the esteemed Immortal Lord Luoshui moves us to the core. My Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect will surely complete the task of collecting one hundred sets of refining materials. Additionally, as for the Profound Truth Jade needed for purchasing the materials, my Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect absolutely would not dare to let the Luo Water Immortal Sect pay for it!

"It’s just one hundred sets of Initial Tier Immortal Artifact refining materials each month. The Earth Immortals of my Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect can handle it ourselves, and we will try to collect even more refining materials! I hope Qilin Immortal can grant this!"

With Sect Leader Li of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect speaking up, the Sect Leaders of the Beimang Immortal Sect, Western Nether Immortal Sect, West Star Immortal Sect, and Wine Immortal Sect immediately stepped forward. They all expressed that they would absolutely not dare to let the Luo Water Immortal Sect pay for the Profound Truth Jade needed to purchase the refining materials.

Seeing this, White-forehead Qilin Bai E couldn’t help but nod slightly. "Fellow Daoists of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, Beimang Immortal Sect, Western Nether Immortal Sect, West Star Immortal Sect, and Wine Immortal Sect, I will definitely inform my master of this matter. Your deep sense of righteousness and generosity touches me greatly. I believe my master will be very pleased to learn of this!"

Sect Leader Li of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect and the Sect Leaders of the Beimang Immortal Sect, Western Nether Immortal Sect, West Star Immortal Sect, and Wine Immortal Sect were overjoyed upon hearing this.

When the Earth Immortals from the other Immortal Sects saw this, they couldn’t help but frown.

Over the past two years, these five Immortal Sects—the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, Beimang Immortal Sect, Western Nether Immortal Sect, West Star Immortal Sect, and Wine Immortal Sect—had grown increasingly prosperous due to the numerous Immortal Artifacts gifted by Lin Xuankong. Every month, many talented Cultivators from various Dynasties joined them. With the number of their disciples increasing rapidly, they had solidly become the top five ranking Immortal Sects in the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region. These five Immortal Sects could manage to collect one hundred sets of Initial Tier Immortal Artifact refining materials each month by mobilizing the disciples within their respective sects.

However, it wouldn’t be so easy for the other Immortal Sects. For example, Immortal Sects like the Five Elements Immortal Sect and the Profound Pure Immortal Sect already had to pay tribute to Lin Xuankong every month. Adding another one hundred sets of materials would be a strain. Even the Five Elements Immortal Sect, which was previously implicitly ranked first in the Western Region, would find it difficult, let alone the other Immortal Sects.
