Free Web NovelChapter 1228: Chapter 947: Visiting Qihan Mountain
This is a Divine Wood!
Cang Rui just landed and felt the special aura emanating from the giant tree.
This is a magical plant impossible to own in any mortal world. Although he has never seen it before, the cultivator’s ability to sense the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth told him this is something from the Celestial Realm!
The thought of being able to lead the sect to migrate to the mountains to cultivate and live in this Divine Wood Forest made Cang Rui feel relaxed and full of joy—what the ancestors said was true, this must be the Kunlun Divine Mountain!
If it were not the Divine Mountain, how could there be such an abundance of Divine Woods?
Then he heard Elder Jiang calmly say, "Sect Leader Cang, try to cut it down."
Cut? Cang Rui was bewildered, looked up at the towering tree, and thought how many years it lived to grow so immense; cutting it down directly would be a waste.
"I need to fell these trees to repair the city gates. External items are useless, so if you want to help, I need to see if Sect Leader Cang can assist in gathering some materials." Jiang Yuan patiently explained, incidentally handing him an ordinary axe.
Using brute force directly is impossible; Yan Xuan had tried many times.
Therefore, he wanted to take the opportunity to test the effects of different people using different tools.
"Need to use Divine Wood to repair the city gates, I understand." Cang Rui found it reasonable upon hearing it, promptly took the axe, aimed at the thick trunk, and started chopping.
The first axe fell, and the bark of the Divine Wood remained unbroken.
He secretly circulated his Spiritual Power and chopped again, only breaking through the bark. At this chopping speed, it would take at least four or five days to cut down a Divine Wood without stopping.
Jiang Yuan raised his eyebrows at the situation, thinking indeed the system is still set up like a basic farming game.
Yan Xuan’s claw was definitely much stronger than the axe, yet it couldn’t damage even a fraction, while Cang Rui could break the bark with the ordinary axe.
This is like a puzzle game where tools are needed: the axe can cut chains but cannot be used to chop through a broken wooden door; truly, "each craft has its expertise."
"Try this axe instead." He took out another one from the Storage Bag and handed it over.
This was a Magical Treasure axe crafted by Leng Yutang according to the system’s tools, shiny and immediately distinguishable from ordinary items.
Cang Rui took it, circulated his Spiritual Power again, and the axe’s glow became brighter, obviously able to fully harness his Spiritual Power.
"Thunk!"
With a chop on the Divine Wood, most of the axe blade sunk in, and he was overjoyed, "Elder, this Magical Treasure is truly useful. At this rate, it would take about half a day to fell a Divine Wood."
Indeed, the efficiency was significantly improved.
Jiang Yuan then handed over his Purple Crystal Stone Axe.
Cang Rui sensed the aura of the Divine Artifact, confidently circulated Spiritual Power and chopped, delightedly exclaiming, "Using Elder’s Divine Artifact, about twenty or thirty chops can bring down a Divine Wood!"
Having tested the efficiency of using different tools, he felt assured.
Having the system appraise reliable members of Cloud Concealment Sect to be absorbed into the small courtyard; Leng Yutang refined as many axes, pickaxes, and shovels as possible, these Inner Sect Disciples from Cloud Concealment Sect were all free to labor extensively, helping gather materials.
Whether chopping trees or crushing stones, consuming Spiritual Power is necessary when using Magical Treasures. Once it is depleted, they meditate and cultivate at the original place to replenish it, similar to how the grand disciple Wan Mingchuan cultivated.
Cloud Concealment Sect disciples can not only save time collecting building materials, repairing the city gates in the Divine Mountain earlier, but also strengthen their skills, achieving multiple benefits!
However, those who enter the small courtyard must be bound by the system to ensure safety.
"Sect Leader Cang is entitled to make the request for the sect, but relocating the entire Cloud Concealment Sect is no small matter." Jiang Yuan hesitated, saying, "There must be a title to make it right."
The person was keen and immediately paid respects, "Elder, you are already the Honored Guest Elder of the Cloud Concealment Sect. Now that chaos is about to arise in the Wilderness, the Cloud Concealment Sect seeks refuge and wishes to become guests under the elder’s seat."
No other relationship is convenient, as it’s merely seeking seclusion and not truly dismantling the sect.
Being guests is very relaxed and simple; anyone can become a guest, even if the entire sect comes to become guests, it’s fine. After all, the courtyard belongs to Elder Jiang, and without some ties, if a thousand from Cloud Concealment Sect were to reside, the small courtyard members would instead become dependent on them.
"That’s fine, when order is restored in the future, the Cloud Concealment Sect’s guest status can be lifted without impacting the sect."
Jiang Yuan thought this must be taught by Old Dog, and he smiled, "Of course, even after becoming guests, living and cultivating within these mountains, unless necessary, I won’t intervene in the internal affairs of Cloud Concealment Sect."
Ling Di can assist in the relocation matters. Each migrating member needs to be screened and reviewed by me individually. Afterwards, Sect Leader Cang can arrange Inner Sect Disciples to collect materials as needed. After I have repaired the city gates’ buildings, you can officially move in. Until then, you may temporarily stay on the Menghua Treasure Ship.
Cang Rui bowed again, "Thank you elder for your great kindness. In the future, whatever is needed, the Cloud Concealment Sect will strive to its utmost!"
Relocating the entire sect is no small task. Although he started preparations early, there are still many troublesome issues to handle.
Upon briefly reporting the current progress, Jiang Yuan promptly instructed Hu Zhile to escort him out of the small courtyard, urging him to return and continue dealing with matters.
Turning around, he called Old Dog, "Ling Di, make haste to take me to Qihan Mountain, and then return to help with Cloud Concealment Sect. By the way, Leng Yutang!"
