I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1736: Chapter 896

Once the ideas were clear, Chen Mobai immediately revised the blueprint of the small Reversible Mount Meru Nine Palaces Formation.

In order to train Yi Shaoqing, while modifying the blueprint, Chen Mobai also took him for some field investigation.

This moment of enlightenment in formations allowed Yi Shaoqing to break through the bottleneck he had faced for decades, achieving the realm of Foundation Establishment Completion. He cultivated the Longevity Scripture, and Qing Nu was preparing to refine a batch of Wood Origin Golden Core Pills. Chen Mobai had already reserved one for him in his heart.

Chen Mobai also directly told Yi Shaoqing about this, and the latter was ecstatic but very apprehensive, deeply fearing a failure in Core Formation would waste resources.

Since Yi Shaoqing could be considered an elder Foundation Establishment practitioner, when Chen Mobai had just established his foundation, he was already at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and most of his cultivation level had been enhanced by elixirs.

Because of this, he was stuck at the late stage of Foundation Establishment for nearly sixty years, even feeling hopeless himself, thinking he would spend the rest of his life like this.

Unexpectedly, under the impact of the Immortal Gate’s formation path, he fell into a state of enlightenment and forcibly broke through the bottleneck with a significant enhancement of his mental state.

“You have the talent enough to achieve Core Formation, though your foundation has flaws, you must have confidence to overcome them.”

Chen Mobai encouraged Yi Shaoqing, although through the Formless Puppet’s simulation, he found the latter’s success rate in Core Formation was indeed not high.

In this case, if Yi Shaoqing failed, it would be necessary to cultivate the next successor for the Formation Division.

This didn’t worry Chen Mobai, since with Zhuo Ming present, her talent above that of an Earth Master meant with some training, she would soon reach Rank-4 in ground arrays.

However, if everything pressed on Zhuo Ming, Chen Mobai worried about overburdening this beloved disciple, so he also thought of his grand-disciple Song Huangdae.

Song Huangdae also had decent talent in terms of Earth Master skills; Chen Mobai had planned to train him as an Array Master and was curious about how his studies were going over the years.

Thinking about it, Chen Mobai immediately called over his grand-disciple.

Since E Yun became the acting sect leader, the connectivity project was officially handed over to Song Huangdae. He led a special batch of disciples drawn from the Five Elements Sect, setting up the Heavenly Communication Device throughout the Eastern Wilderness.

In Yunmeng Immortal City, the moment Song Huangdae heard Chen Mobai summoned him, he entrusted his matters to others then took the quickest way by Teleportation Array to Northern Abyss City.

“I want to upgrade the city-protecting great formation, so I called you to come and learn together…”

After Chen Mobai briefly explained, Song Huangdae immediately followed Yi Shaoqing to conduct a field investigation. Although encountering obstacles mainly involved demolition, they tried to minimize it, as Chen Mobai intended to follow the Immortal Gate’s rules, providing demolition funds and new houses as compensation.

The spirit stones of the Five Elements Sect were hard-earned, saving as much as possible was desired.

Once the new blueprints were finalized, Chen Mobai immediately called E Yun up and informed him about this matter.

“Sect Leader, isn’t it a bit too much to offer 1.2 times the market price for compensation?”

After listening, E Yun checked the blueprints, roughly calculated the houses needing demolition, and considering the high property prices in the center of Northern Abyss City, couldn’t help but feel distressed.

“There has to be some premium, plus this sum of spirit stones includes their interim financial needs after losing their homes. The resettlement houses in the new area must also be promptly arranged for them, which is counted as compensation.”

“Every time a new policy is implemented, initially we have to establish trust. This way, the enthusiasm for future demolitions will be higher among the populace.”

“Don’t feel sorry for the spirit stones; just consider Northern Abyss City’s current rise in housing prices, these losses will be recouped in a few years.”

From Chen Mobai’s perspective with the Immortal Gate’s vision, this was a sure-profit venture for the Five Elements Sect. Although initially it required a significant outlay of spirit stones, this batch of suddenly-rich cultivators from the demolition would in turn promote further surges in property prices in Northern Abyss City.

After a few years, once the new district near the location of the large-scale Transmission Array was planned and all houses completed, and when the news of the city-protecting great formation being upgraded to Fourth Rank Superior Grade spread, E Yun would realize that the mere rise in property prices not only offset the demolition losses but also drove up the overall value of all property in Northern Abyss City.

According to Chen Mobai’s rough estimates, this could add several billion spirit stones in net worth to Northern Abyss City at the very least.

Once reaching that stage, controlling the entire Northern Abyss City, the Five Elements Sect could claim nearly ten billion worth of assets even with only tens of millions of spirit stones in reserves.

Outsiders might even think the Five Elements Sect was being modest since they could roughly estimate Northern Abyss City’s property prices close to a ten billion spirit stone scale.

It was also at this moment that Chen Mobai suddenly realized being a rogue cultivator wasn’t very promising.

After all, even having seized the entire Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace, including the Dove Mound Mountain’s Spirit Stone Mine, actually meant only grabbing two to three billion spirit stones.

Yet his straightforward capital maneuvering and new demolition policies in Northern Abyss could effortlessly foster an increase in property asset value worth several billion spirit stones.

Compared to this, robbery was thoroughly outclassed in terms of style and reputation.

Chen Mobai dared say that after this round of demolitions, those who received a resettlement house and got rich would at least erect a Longevity Plaque in his honor.

Compared to destroying sects and exterminating clans, manipulating housing prices not only wouldn’t breed enmity, but might even inspire gratitude and praise.
