Chapter 357: Chapter 285: Cultivation Plan (2)
’Using sixty Upper Grade Primordial Spirit Pills a year... that’s impossible.’
Fang Yun shook his head at the thought.
The entire Celestial Cloud Sect’s supply of Primordial Spirit Pills was now entrusted to him for refining. He knew very well that even with his perfect refining technique, the sect’s annual production of Upper Grade Primordial Spirit Pills was only around sixty.
For completing the task of refining the Primordial Spirit Pills, he would receive about thirty Upper Grade Primordial Spirit Pills each year.
’I’ll use Sect Contribution Points to get another ten Upper Grade Primordial Spirit Pills each year, then buy some Middle Grade ones. I’ll do my best to reach the peak of the Late-stage Foundation Establishment within thirty years.’
After weighing all the factors, Fang Yun had a rough plan.
Other elders in the sect also needed to purchase Primordial Spirit Pills, so he couldn’t take all the Upper Grade ones for himself. The reward for the refining task was the same as when he was refining Spirit Ascension Pills, which was already quite generous.
If he only purchased ten Upper Grade Primordial Spirit Pills annually, the other elders most likely wouldn’t have much of an objection. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Just as he had settled on a more concrete cultivation plan, another Communication Spiritual Light appeared before him.
Unlike the previous one, this Communication Spiritual Light was from Bai Qinying.
The time had come.
If he wasn’t mistaken, Bai Qinying was summoning him to the conference hall on Battle Peak.
The meeting was likely being called to discuss how to attack the Celestial Demon Sect.
Fang Yun left his residence and quickly arrived at the conference hall on Battle Peak.
He had moved quickly, but due to the second-hand notice from Bai Qinying and the distance he had to travel, he wasn’t the first to arrive.
When he entered the conference hall, all the other Battle Peak elders who were supposed to attend were already present.
As before, his seat was next to Bai Qinying’s.
As the third-in-command of Battle Peak, Bai Qinying’s seat had changed, and his own seat had moved along with hers.
"Huh? Junior Brother, when did you break through to the Late-stage Foundation Establishment?" At such close proximity, Bai Qinying could sense the change in Fang Yun’s aura without even having to try.
Noticing this, Bai Qinying immediately sent him a voice transmission to ask.
As he took his seat, Fang Yun replied via voice transmission.
"I just broke through three days ago."
"What a coincidence. Now that you’ve broken through to the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, you can get some practice on some Foundation Establishment Demons..."
Bai Qinying, who had received the news in advance, then began to fill Fang Yun in on the meeting’s agenda.
He had just entered the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, while Bai Qinying was already approaching the peak of the late stage. If all went well, she would reach the true peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage before she was a hundred years old. After that, with some more preparation, she could attempt to reach Core Formation.
The cultivation speed of an Abnormal Spirit Root Cultivator was more than four times that of a Five Spirit Roots cultivator. Even with pure, unassisted cultivation, it would only take an Abnormal Spirit Root Cultivator just over forty years to go from the beginning of the Late-stage Foundation Establishment to its peak.
As long as they had a Cultivation Technique and a normal place to cultivate, it wasn’t particularly difficult for Abnormal Spirit Root Cultivators to go from the Qi Refining Stage to the Peak of Foundation Establishment, even without the aid of any pills.
Shortly after Fang Yun sat down, Feng Tianrui began to speak.
"I’ve called this meeting of our Battle Peak to discuss a matter of great importance: attacking the Celestial Demon Sect!"
"What? Elder Feng, isn’t this a bit sudden?"
Among the Battle Peak elders, those who had heard whispers about attacking the Celestial Demon Sect quickly connected the dots, while the elders who knew nothing at all found it very abrupt.
"Yes, Elder Feng, I haven’t made any preparations."
"This attack on the Celestial Demon Sect must be related to the Wind Ling Sect."
"Elder Gao is correct," Feng Tianrui said. "Word has come from the Wind Ling Sect. They’ve spotted Demons from the Celestial Demon Sect in their Earth Realm. This means the Celestial Demon Sect is already reinforcing the Dragon Demon Palace to help them deal with the Wind Ling Sect." fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Only after the Supreme Elder and the Sect Leader verified this information were the specific details passed down to Feng Tianrui, the Management Elder of Battle Peak.
"So that’s what’s happening."
"We can’t let the Wind Ling Sect be annihilated."
Most of the Battle Peak elders were well aware that if the Wind Ling Sect were to fall, the Celestial Cloud Sect would face an even more severe situation in the future.
After understanding the general situation, the vast majority of elders began discussing how to attack the Celestial Demon Sect.
When it came to operations within the Celestial Demon Sect’s territory, no elder on Battle Peak had a greater record of achievements than Fang Yun.
Thus, any discussion about attacking the Celestial Demon Sect inevitably turned to him.
"Elder Fang, do you have any thoughts on this attack against the Celestial Demon Sect?" a Middle-stage Foundation Establishment elder from Battle Peak asked Fang Yun.
The previously noisy conference hall of Battle Peak fell silent at once.
What was Fang Yun’s plan of action?
Every elder on Battle Peak was curious to know.
After the room quieted down, the Middle-stage Foundation Establishment elder felt he should add another sentence to curry favor with Elder Fang.
"Elder Fang, if you need any help during your operation, please don’t hesitate to ask me."
"I say, Elder Wu, Elder Fang always operates alone. Our concealment skills are average at best. If we were to accompany him, we would only slow him down."
"A Middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator should stay out of this. Elder Fang is already at the Late-stage Foundation Establishment," Bai Qinying interjected, directly revealing Fang Yun’s current cultivation.
Regarding Fang Yun’s breakthrough to the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, some Battle Peak elders were surprised, while others were not.
Most, however, found themselves feeling both surprised and yet, not surprised at all.
[Sect Influence +1%]
A prompt had appeared on the light screen. Fang Yun glanced at it once before closing it.
His Sect Influence, which had been stagnant for a long time, had finally increased. This was a direct result of the influence his new Realm had.
After the one-percent increase, his Sect Influence had now reached 77%.
Fang Yun knew that much of the remaining influence he needed to gain to get from 77% to 100% was directly linked to his Realm, and then to his position.
Promotions from Elder to Supreme Elder, or from Supreme Elder to Sect Leader—all of these came with direct influence.
Fang Yun felt that he had now completely grasped the rules governing influence.
"My plan is to first eliminate Iron Tiger Manor, and while I’m at it, clean up the Stone Demon Sect and the Demon Shu Family," Fang Yun announced his plan under the watchful eyes of the other elders.
The domains of Iron Tiger Manor, the Stone Demon Sect, and the Demon Shu Family all bordered the Celestial Cloud Sect’s Earth Realm.
Without a doubt, of these three Demon factions, Iron Tiger Manor was the strongest. The other two combined were no match for it.
With the support of the Celestial Demon Sect, the Stone Demon Sect now had a new Sect Leader, a Demon in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Currently, the Stone Demon Sect only had this single Foundation Establishment Demon, making them an easy target.
The Demon Shu Family had also been propped up by the Celestial Demon Sect.
The place where the Shu Family now resided was the former ancestral land of the Demon Feng Family.
According to information gathered by the Evil Extermination Hall, the Demon Shu Family also had only one Demon at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Therefore, while eliminating Iron Tiger Manor, Fang Yun could also take care of these two weaker Demon Foundation Establishment Influences along the way.
"Elder Fang, will you be infiltrating to strike as you have before?" Feng Tianrui asked, just to be sure.
"That’s right," Fang Yun nodded.
"During the time you are infiltrating Iron Tiger Manor, our main forces will advance ahead of schedule."
Feng Tianrui quickly made his decision. This approach would serve as a form of protection for Fang Yun. If forces from the Celestial Demon Sect came to provide support, the Battle Peak elders stationed there could intercept them.
"That sounds good."
"I think it’s an excellent plan."
Almost none of the Battle Peak elders objected to Feng Tianrui’s arrangement.
Compared to what they had to do, Fang Yun’s task was far more difficult.
Infiltrating Iron Tiger Manor was particularly risky. If the infiltration failed, capturing the manor would become incredibly difficult.
"I’ll take part in that," Bai Qinying spoke up immediately after Feng Tianrui’s decision was settled.
She wanted to be part of the force that would intercept any potential reinforcements from the Celestial Demon Sect.
"Count me in."
"Elder Feng, me too."
