After the mind-reading cripple junior sister, the entire sect rose to prominence.

Chapter 268 Map
With this huge sum of money, the pressure on the Immortal Sect to obtain crystals was greatly relieved.

The creation of a sect is the most expensive, because at this time the disciples cannot create much value, and the training is almost entirely provided by the sect.

It takes time for disciples to give back to the sect, but before that time is over, the days seem much longer.

The Immortal Sect has 5,000 disciples, and the monthly allowance for each disciple is a huge sum of money. Putting aside other things, just in terms of crystals, each Qi Refining stage disciple receives ten crystals, Foundation Establishment stage disciples receive twenty crystals, and those above that level receive even more.

If we take 20 pieces per person as an example, the allowance alone would cost 1.2 million crystals per year, not to mention that the allowance also includes pills, which are even more expensive than crystals.

That's nothing compared to the real cost: the basic expenses of the three peaks of alchemy, talisman, and artifact.

Developing skills is almost entirely dependent on money. For example, alchemists need to constantly refine pills to improve their level, which consumes alchemy furnaces and medicinal herbs.

Talisman masters consume talisman pens, talisman liquid, and talisman paper. Weapon masters consume weapon furnaces and materials.

Although the disciples themselves have to pay a portion, the sect takes the lion's share. The daily consumption of these things costs money like water, amounting to tens of thousands, and yet they can't cut back on it.

This is great! By accepting money from other forces, we can not only ensure a perfect timeline, but also further enhance the sect's efforts in training disciples.

For example, the sect could provide funds and prizes to hold more competitions. Or they could arrange for disciples to go out and gain experience.

Also, the disciples currently have relatively few sect contribution points, so not many people are exchanging items for them yet, but it shouldn't be long before the number increases.

We can use this money to buy more good things so that our disciples can exchange contribution points for supplies.

Even if they don't have enough contribution points to exchange for the items, hanging the good stuff up high is still a form of incentive.

Furthermore, after establishing contact with various sects this time, we can find opportunities to take our disciples to visit and learn from each other in the future.

Although Xu Yihan didn't think that other sects were stronger than him in any way, since they even had to buy his cultivation techniques, those large sects that had been established for hundreds of thousands of years did have more profound foundations. Letting his disciples go there to broaden their horizons would also be beneficial for tempering their Dao hearts.

Thinking about it this way, I feel incredibly motivated and the future looks promising!
While Xu Yihan was busy, the others were not idle either.

Liu Feng continued to instruct the three hundred disciples in their cultivation. Du Yue and Meng Sheng were also very busy. They compiled the patients' conditions into a book to test the disciples of Danxia Peak and to guide their medical skills.

The other peaks were the same; everywhere was a scene of bustling activity, with everyone working with great enthusiasm.

Everyone has heard that various forces have come knocking on our door, all for the sake of obtaining cultivation techniques, and among them are even people from the ten major sects!

This was unthinkable in the past. The Ten Great Sects were of such high status that they would actually take the initiative to ask a sect for a cultivation technique and even offer benefits for it!
And this sect is our own sect! Hahaha, everyone is truly proud.

Driven by this sense of pride, they studied and practiced even more diligently.

At Liu Feng's prompting, Xu Yihan sent a telepathic message to Ling Qing, asking them to return as soon as possible.

Just then, Ling Qing and the others had finished their search outside and rushed back as soon as they heard the news.

"A new secret realm is about to open. I have reliable information that this secret realm is extremely rich in resources and has a lot of vegetation, including the Specialized Grass, one of the extinct plants on the continent. If your Divination God Clan is interested, you can also go in and explore," Xu Yihan said.

Ling Qing's eyes lit up. "Really? There really is a special herb?"

"Of course it's true." Xu Yihan nodded with a smile.

The news is definitely true, because it was Jiuwei who said it.

“Great! I’ll take a few of my people with me then.” Ling Qing agreed after a moment’s thought.

The Transformation Grass requires a place with abundant spiritual energy, preferably one rich in water, which perfectly suits the back mountain of the Immortal Sect. If it truly exists in the secret realm, then they will gather it and move it to the back mountain!

This is an excellent medicine for healing wounds and relieving pain.

"Alright, I'll let you know when the secret realm is about to open."

"Good work."

……

More than twenty days passed in this way. Suddenly, Mo Jiuwei notified everyone and took out a few pieces of paper.

"This is... a map??"

Xu Yihan looked at it, somewhat puzzled.

There are several maps, each different, and they don't seem to represent the same place.

However, upon closer inspection, some places seem very similar. For example, there is a lake in one of the maps, and this same lake appears on all three maps.

“It’s a secret realm.” Mo Jiuwei nodded.

Sigh, I'm so young, yet I'm already worrying so much.

These maps include those suitable for Qi Refining stage cultivators, those suitable for Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, and those suitable for alchemists, talisman masters, and weapon makers...

[As long as you memorize the diagram thoroughly, even if you don't become rich, at least you won't die so easily.]

The map is actually quite simple. It shows the general directions, mountains, rivers, and forests. Places with treasures are marked with square crystals, while places with danger are marked with a skull.

Treasures might be snatched away by others first, but as long as you avoid places with skulls, you won't die in the mouth of powerful monsters.

Of course, if you're really bad at the game and have terrible luck, there are probably a hundred ways to die, which is impossible to guard against.

Mo Jiuwei couldn't guarantee that everyone could do it, but with this blueprint, the chance of obtaining the treasure would increase several times over, and the chance of dying unexpectedly would also decrease several times over.

Xu Yihan's hands were trembling as he held the blueprints.

He was actually quite uneasy, not because of anything else, but because if he were to take a large number of disciples, there would inevitably be casualties among them.

For example, one might be poisoned, killed by demonic beasts, trapped in a dangerous place with no way to escape, or even die at the hands of other cultivators.

This is common in the cultivation world; anyone who goes out risks dying in various dangers, and no one can guarantee that all disciples will return alive.

However, this was the first training exercise after the Immortal Sect accepted its new disciples, and Xu Yihan, as the sect leader, felt a lot of pressure, fearing that the children would suffer heavy casualties, which would make him feel guilty.

But we can't prevent them from going anywhere. If they don't go anywhere, they will certainly survive, but they will also miss out on opportunities.

But with these maps, things are different. With them, the disciples' survival rate will be greatly increased, and if they are lucky, they can come back with a lot of rewards!

"Let me see... this mark indicates a spirit herb, right? And this branch must mean it's a material?"

"There are so many crystal patterns in this river, does that mean there are a lot of valuable things inside?"

"Great, I've memorized them."
