After Xu Fan returned, the whole sect began eating crab roe-covered rice.
Wiping the residue from the corner of his mouth, Xu Fan was satisfied, “Not bad, Moon Immortal’s cooking skills are getting better and better.”
At this moment, Xu Yuexian squinted and said, “Master, I didn’t make this dish, it was made by Pu Tao controlling the Tool Puppet to cook.”
“It seems that I won’t be qualified to cook for Master in the future.” After saying that, Xu Yuexian pretended to sigh.
“If you want to cook, no one’s stopping you. In the future, Pu Tao’s tasks will become more and more important and there might not be enough time to manage these things.”
Xu Fan then took advantage of everyone being present to discuss the sect’s future plans, but he soon realized that no one was interested.
“Master, after your plan is completed, can I go treasure hunting?” “l want to travel throughout the entire Central Continent.”
“l want to go out and see the world after I receive Master’s secret method.”
“l want to take my wife out for a walk.”
“If you all leave, I’ll stay to guard the sect and protect Master.”
Hearing the last sentence, Xu Fan gave Xu Gang a look, thinking, I can suppress you with one hand, there’s no need for you to protect me,
Xu Fan sighed at the sight of their indifferent attitudes, feeling that if only there was one ambitious person among them, he wouldn’t be so tired.
It seems that he had to find a few management talents from the younger generation of disciples.
“The sect has just been established, and you guys just want to slack off. Dream on.”
“You must at least train the next generation of disciples before you can leave.”
“And our sect’s initial development plan is not to be completed until at least 5 years later,”
“So, whether you have something to do or not, just stay in the sect.”
“If you really have nothing to do, go to the Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake to kill Nascent Soul Period Monsters.” Xu Fan said as he looked at these unsatisfactory people.
“Discover the talents of the next-generation disciples.”
“These disciples have passed my tests, and their future achievements will not be worse than yours. So, I decided that in the future, each of you must accept three direct disciples.”
“No disciple is allowed to travel far away before reaching the Golden Core
Stage.” Xu Fan said that he could not let himself be the only one worrying.
Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, the first batch of Spirit Power Armor was fully produced.
Pang Fu, carrying the hope of Xu Fan, flew towards Linsen Immortal City.
“Half a year, 400 million Spirit Stones, the speed of earning money should be about right.”
At this time, Xu Fan suddenly thought of the Floating Skyship. The Floating Skyship could bring back resources worth several hundred billion at least after the six-month journey. Compared to the Floating Skyship, the Spirit Stones he had could hardly be considered a small change.
Xu Fan had not yet estimated how much Spiritual Power it would take to refine a Floating Skyship. Was it several hundred billion?
Although he couldn’t make a Floating Skyship, Xu Fan knew the huge cannon on the escort warship very well.
“I’ll just hold on for now. I must refine the Floating Skyship.”
Less than a day later, Pang Fu returned with the Spirit Stones and materials that Xu Fan needed.
“Elder Xu, I am honored to have completed the mission.”
Pang Fu handed over all the Spirit Stones and materials to Xu Fan.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Xu Fan casually took out 20 million Spirit Stones and handed them to Pang Fu.
“Take this and set up the Chamber of Commerce for our Hidden Spirit Sect. You will have full control of the Chamber of Commerce.” Xu Fan said, it seemed that the current Commerce Pavilion was a bit thin, consisting of only Pang Fu and his son.
“With this amount of Spirit Stones, our Hidden Spirit Sect should be able to open shops in the main Immortal Cities in Central Continent.”
“At that time, our Hidden Spirit Sect will be able to grasp firsthand information.’
Pang Fu took the Spirit Stones and said that he had thought he would have to wait a while longer before expanding the Chamber of Commerce.
“Work hard, and I’ll give out bonuses by the end of the year.” Xu Fan said with a smile.
“Thank you, Elder Xu.”
“Haha, you’re welcome, Pavilion Master Pang.”
After their conversation, Xu Fan turned around and handed all the spiritual mines that Pang Fu had bought to Pu Tao.
“In another two years, I won’t be afraid even if a cultivator at the God
Transformation stage invades our sect.”
Once they have enough spirit stones, everyone on Hidden Spirit Island notices that the tool puppets, which have been missing for several months, reappear on a massive scale, and the surrounding environment is changing every day.
With the spirit stones in place, Xu Fan begins to broad his interests.
In the refining room on the main peak, Xu Fan is refining a fifth-grade treasure artifact, a Gathering Spirit Bead, which is the 30th one he has made. After refining 36 Gathering Spirit Beads, Xu Fan plans to attach them directly to the sect’s grand formation, which will further increase the density of spiritual qi on Hidden Spirit Island.
Now, it has been exactly one year since the establishment of the sect, but Xu Fan has a nagging feeling that he has forgotten something.
It isn’t until the next day when he what he has forgotten.
On that day, a deacon, a Nascent Soul cultivator who had warmly entertained Xu Fan before, arrives from the Elders Association.
“Sect Leader Xu, I apologise for the interruption.” At this moment, the Nascent Soul cultivator looks more like a businessman on a door-to-door visit.
“l am an elder, the sect leader is my disciple.” Xu Fan gestures towards Xu Yuexian beside him.
“Haha, it’s all the same, all the same.” The Nascent Soul cultivator laughs.
At this moment, a young girl puppet brings tea.
“What brings you here, senior?” Xu Fan asks.
“Oh, after all, this is your first time establishing a sect, so you may not know.
Today, I specially came to explain it to you.”
The Nascent Soul cultivator takes out a Communication Talisman, directly projecting an image in the air.
There are only a few simple pieces of data on it—first, the net profit of the sect this year, and second, the taxes it should pay.
Looking at the number next to the taxes to be paid, Xu Fan falls into deep thought, partly because it’s high and partly because it’s accurate.
“Our Elders Association was established by 36 Unparalleled Venerables, and now it has been 30,000 years. Now, there are a total of 56 Venerables in the Elders Association, including those who did not become elders.”
“l won’t talk about the slogan of our Elders Association; let me tell you about the ten Immortal Tools of our Elders Association.’
“The first one, The Heavenly Patrol Instrument, supervises the entire Central
Continent.”
“The second one, Ten Thousand Star Boat, can travel around the myriad worlds.’
“The third to sixth are the Heaven and Earth Mirror, Cause and Effect Mirror, Zhou Tian Mirror, and Heavenly Spirit Domain. When the four mirrors are combined, they can trace the origin of all matters.”
“This is also the Immortal Tool used to calculate your taxes.”
“The seventh one, Ten Thousand Sword Array Disk, slays everything.”
“The eighth one, the Dragon Immortal Palace.”
“The ninth one, Ten Thousand Souls Tomb.’
“The tenth one, the Demon-slaying Sword.”
“I’m telling Elder Xu all this, with no other intentions.”
“If your sect’s strength can’t resist, it’s best not to resist the taxes.”
“There are now sects from outside the Central Continent who are wiped out every year for not paying taxes.”
“l hope Elder Xu doesn’t make a mistake.” The Nascent Soul deacon says with a smile. He didn’t have to say all this, but this sect is the only one in their region, so it must be well protected.
What’s important is that Xu Fan and his sect have a strong ability to make spirit stones, which will also improve their performance in the future. Xu Fan takes out three storage bags containing 10 million spirit stones each and hands them to the Nascent Soul deacon, then asks a question that concerns him the most.
“If a powerful cultivator tries to destroy my sect, will seniors be able to protect it completely?”
“Unless it’s the Demon Clan, the Elders Association will only kindly advise; after all, our Elders Association can’t intervene too much.’
At this point, Xu Fan has a word in his mind, “Should I say ‘MMP or not?”
