I Have Medicine

Chapter 483 - Organizational Expansion

With the addition of three qi veins that were three hundred meters long, the concentration of ambient profound qi throughout the entire manor grounds increased by at least four or five times. This allowed the subordinates within the manor to benefit greatly.

In such an environment, quite a few younger generations among the races and attached organizations used this opportunity to suddenly break through, becoming martial artists of even higher realms.

As far as the pharmacists were concerned, there were many more things that could be done under this kind of rich profound qi.

Those who were at the same realms could continue accumulating and breaking through the internal qi realms. As for those who didn’t have enough attainments, they could establish their own small, personal medicine gardens inside the Myriad Medicine Estate under the teachings of their elders. Outside of the estate, they could open up large medicine gardens. Everything was for the sake of sustainable development and service — These things, which would take a long time to make a profit, couldn’t be done when the initial capital was insufficient.

Among these people, Wu Xing was conscientious and incredibly hardworking. Upon witnessing his actions, the leaders of other attached organizations also did their utmost unanimously.

All of them knew that whomever could make the most contributions in the early stages could grasp even more authority in the future.

Of course, it wasn’t the pharmacists of the Myriad Medicine Estate who benefited the most from the installment of the profound qi veins. Rather, it was those martial artists who required profound qi.

In the manor, each of the servile races occupied a piece of territory, but the battle slaves were obligated to be sent to another thousand-person large courtyard. Now that the framework had been completed and with the existence of the Tianlong Guards, a name was chosen for the large courtyard, which had to be expanded. It was called the Blood Dragon Barracks.

The Blood Dragon Barracks was mainly divided between battle soldiers and death guards. Among them, the battle soldiers would constitute an army in the future. Currently, the troops were mainly formed spontaneously by the battle slaves. For the time being, no specific rules had been drawn up, so they just trained first. As for the death guards, they were comprised of the Blood-Clothed Guards and the Tianlong Guards. The Tianlong Guards remained the same, but the Blood-Clothed Guards were a group of people who were selected for other purposes.

A portion of the qi pockets controlled by the battle slaves and Tianlong Guards were utilized as tools during daily shifts. However, a few were also treated as special rewards — If anyone was able to claim victory in certain competitions, they could use those qi pockets on a long-term basis.

In this way, a wave of competitiveness formed among them. Moreover, while they competed with each other, they also tried their best to maintain a virtuous cycle.

Under Gongyi Tianheng’s command, another place that received his support was the martial arts dojo.

This martial arts dojo was owned by the Gongyi Clan, and was classified as a favor that Tianheng gave to his clan members. At the same time, people from other racial groups were permitted to enter. The Gongyi Clan directly named the dojo after Gongyi Tianheng, and called it the Tianheng Martial Arts Hall. However, Tianheng didn’t give them profound qi veins for free to increase their laziness. Instead, ten qi pockets were shifted out to locations below the mountain peak. This allowed the younger generations who often acquired the top ten spots in the Tianheng Martial Arts Hall to use them for cultivation purposes.

Of course, Tianheng’s close relatives, namely his grandfather, parents, and siblings, each had their own qi pocket. Even if they didn’t use these qi pockets now, these things were theirs to use when the time came.

Under Tianheng’s various arrangements, the entire manor was operating in an orderly manner. And because Tianheng’s own strength had broken through to the Atomic Realm, the salary he received was also improved a step further.

The first thing that increased was the size of the manor grounds.

At first, the manor occupied a radius of five kilometers. But now, the demarcation had spread to the surroundings, and reached a radius of ten kilometers. The originally rewarded courtyards were also increased several times. At least ten more thousand-person large courtyards as well as numerous hundred-person and ten-person courtyards were added.

As for the blood pools, medicinal pills, medicinal ingredients, ore veins, woodlands, and mountain peaks, all of them were increased. The quantity of each type was several times to a dozen times that of the previous quota.

Naturally, these things were external objects. Admittedly, it was good to have these things, but even if he didn’t have them, it wasn’t impossible for Tianheng to purchase them inside the sect with his current financial ability. What was most important was the opportunity to select battle slaves and servile races again.

When he first joined Ten Ultimates Sect, Tianheng hadn’t reached the Immortal Realm. However, the salary he obtained was still somewhat higher than that of an Immortal Realm prodigy. Now that Tianheng was at the Atomic Realm, the servants allocated to him also couldn’t be of the same class as when he was at the Immortal Realm.

First of all, there were the servile races. Originally, he only had three servile races, but now he could choose another three.

After that, there were the battle slaves. At first, he only had three hundred battle slaves, but now he could choose another five hundred Immortal Realms, thirty Atomic Realms, five Ascendant Realms, and two Celestial Realms.

Tianheng was personally informed about these new gains by He Zizhang, who also brought him to the sect’s battle slave barracks to conduct another round of selections.

If it was said that He Zizhang did it last time mostly because of the Blood Transformation Palace Master’s order and a little bit of friendship as fellow disciples, then now it wasn’t known how many times his kindness and closeness toward Tianheng had increased.

Following this, with He Zizhang’s help, Tianheng quickly made his selection.

Concerning the servile races, he didn’t make any choices that were too unusual. Instead, he added a branch of the Spirit-Seeking Mouse Race, which could cooperate with the Gold-Devouring Mouse Race — They possessed a trace of the Treasure-Hunting Mouse’s bloodline as well as a trace of the Earth-Burrowing Mouse’s bloodline. As a result, both sides were superimposed. Not only could they dig out caves incredibly quickly, they were also extremely sensitive to spirituality, which made them excellent helpers.

On top of that, there was a branch of the Spirit Oriole Race, which could cooperate with the Enlightened Hundred-Spirits Monkeys. A sparse amount of feathers grew on the bodies of this race, and their singing voices were sweet and melodious. However, their greatest function wasn’t to act as someone’s amusement. Instead, they increased the concentration of earth qi through their singing voices, which promoted the growth of medicinal herbs.

In addition, the third choice was still the same Iron Ox Race as before. It was said that they had originally branched out from the same tribe. Now, it was the right time to gather them together. The personalities of the Iron Ox Race were simple, honest, and loyal. He wasn’t worried about too much trouble being caused once the different racial groups were assembled.

The servile races selected for Atomic Realm disciples were all thousand-person races. For the members of these three races, each branch surpassed one thousand. After the selection, he sent someone to bring these people to the manor so that they could be settled down.

Afterwards, these couple of races would respectively enter the accumulation process of Tianheng’s original industries...

Once the servile races were chosen, the next step was to choose the battle slaves.

This time around, Tianheng didn’t come alone. Instead, he brought along Ao Ying, Ao Min, and several battle slave powerhouses from the wild dog and sighthound races. The purpose of bringing them wasn’t complicated. It was to let them choose the battle slaves who belonged to their respective tribes.

Ao Ying and the others didn’t expect this pleasant surprise, and they were immediately overwhelmed with gratitude. At this moment, even those people from the Wild Dog Tribe, who didn’t surrender so easily, had their hearts filled with excitement.

The subsequent matters became very simple. Ao Ying and the others rapidly recognized the members of their own tribes through qi emissions, types of internal qi, and so on. However, they didn’t fail to meet Tianheng’s expectations. Although they selected members of their own races, not every individual from each race was taken. Rather, they started choosing from those with the greatest strength and the most exuberant qi and blood.

It was also because the hound races had so many people, and each tribe would send lots of members to become battle slaves every year. After the numerous hound races were partitioned, those five hundred Immortal Realm placements were filled.

After that, the Atomic Realm and Ascendant Realm placements were also occupied by members of the hound races.

All except for the Celestial Realm positions... Among their hound races, these few large tribes, there was only one mastiff.

As for that other Celestial Realm powerhouse, Tianheng selected this individual from the Shadow-Morphing Black Cat Race.

Firstly, a race of shadow cats had already been bestowed by his master to be his subordinates, and he had long familiarized himself with them. Secondly, there would be a mastiff out in the open and a shadow cat in the dark. Both sides could further their cooperation with one another.

Rather than acquiring more races, it was better to digest his present gains. If he wanted even more races under his command to flourish, it had to wait until his strength was higher.

After the selection, Tianheng allowed Ao Ying and the others to deal with the battle slaves and proceed to the Blood Dragon Barracks.

Those chosen members of the hound races never thought that they would be so lucky to be selected by their fellow tribesmen. Now, they were affiliated with the subordinates under one master, and the entire tribe had been reunited. Once they listened to Ao Ying and the other battle slaves talking about the salaries Tianheng’s subordinates could obtain, they were even more reassured.

When all was said and done, it was already difficult for battle slaves to be able to follow a good master. A master who respected and valued them was even rarer.

The situation in front of them undoubtedly made them breathe great sighs of relief.

As for the following matters, Tianheng didn’t need to pay particular attention to those things.

Speaking of which, the current number of battle slaves of just the hound races reached a staggering 1,300 to 1,400 members. Coupled with the group of people from the shadow cat race, the framework of the army could be gradually built up... But it was still better to observe for a little while longer.

After going back, Gu Zuo had just finished refining for three days and three nights. Having soaked in the hot springs for two hours, Gu Zuo came face to face with Tianheng.

Seeing that Gu Zuo’s features were damp with the steam’s moisture, Tianheng’s heart stirred. He walked over, and kissed Gu Zuo’s cheek.

Although this wasn’t the first time he was kissed, Gu Zuo still felt that the part where he was kissed became a little hot. This caused him to quickly change the subject: “Big brother, the palace master just sent a decree.”

Tianheng saw that he seemed somewhat bashful. He muffled his laughter, and followed with a question: “Oh? What did the decree say?”

Gu Zuo handed over the decree that he recently received: “I haven’t opened it yet.”

After that, Tianheng opened the decree, and swiftly skimmed through it. Once he finished reading the decree, he handed it back to Gu Zuo.

Gu Zuo lowered his head to read it, and was a little surprised.

This decree explained that there was a mission, which required his big brother to complete.

This mission was an appeal for help from an unacknowledged organization, which was located in a relatively remote place within Ten Ultimates Sect’s borders — This organization used to be at the iron rank, but their sole Ascendant Realm passed away decades ago. Without any strength, it could only drop in rank from iron to unacknowledged. Now that they encountered trouble, they weren’t able to resolve it at all. Having no alternative, all that they could do was seek aid from Ten Ultimates Sect, to which they had been attached for countless years.

However, it was also because the place was too far away that this organization had never directly communicated with Ten Ultimates Sect. At this time, they struggled to utilize an antiquated method to contact the sect. Fortunately, they were able to get in touch, and clearly explained what had happened to them.

To put it simply, certain people were eyeing their organization.

With this kind of targeting, those people probably wanted the small life of their entire force.

Perhaps, due to the decree’s lack of page space, the specifics weren’t particularly detailed. But basically speaking, it wasn’t a local group that was targeting them, but most likely outsiders.

Moreover, what these outsiders did was extremely excessive.
