I Have A Cultivation World - Chapter 419:
Chapter 419: Chapter 309: The Great Battle 1_1
Chen Mobai’s Void Spirit Eye was activated and he looked up.
He saw a total of twenty flying boats heading from Shake Mountain Peak. The leaders on the first eight flying boats were all cultivators dressed uniformly in golden robes, all of them from Mountain Shaker Peak.
As for the rest of the twelve flying boats, some were orderly and some were in complete disarray, they must be cultivator clans from within Rock Country and loose cultivators they recruited.
When cultivators wage war, especially top sects like Divine Wood Sect and Shake Mountain Peak in the Eastern Wilderness, they naturally mobilize all usable resources.
Chu Zuoshu, for example, was able to mobilize the Lei Nation’s four major clans and gathered a force of four to five hundred people in a short time.
The opposite side, Rock Country, is the base of Shake Mountain Peak, which has been operated for hundreds of years and is solid as iron.
Even without Ji Zhenshi taking action, it managed to quickly gather the cultivator clans nearby and the other big sects, along with the hired loose cultivators, they managed to gather over a thousand cultivators, making a grand march towards Rolling Thunder Mountain.
This time, Ji Dingjin didn’t engage in any unnecessary speeches.
Each of the twenty flying boats was adorned with an Array Flag, forming a massive battle array, appearing like dark, endless clouds, advancing in a formidable manner.
“Gentlemen, the main forces of my Divine Wood Sect have already reached the borders of Yun Country and Lei Country. If we hold out for three more days, support will arrive.”
“If we win this battle, I can assure each of your four families a place to purchase a Foundation Building Pill. Whenever you need it, as long as the Divine Wood Sect has them, we will supply.”
“If one of you should perish, I guarantee in the name of the Divine Wood Sect, we will compensate your family with a Foundation Building Pill and ensure its safe consumption.”
“Also, tell the cultivators, whoever beheads an enemy cultivator will receive corresponding rewards of Spirit Stones and medicine. The expenses will be covered by our Divine Wood Sect.”
Prior to the battle, Chu Zuoshu made promises to the four Lei Nation families.
The initially reluctant foursome of Lian Chenghai immediately brightened up and stated their commitment to defending the honor of the Divine Wood Sect.
One should know that even though the Divine Wood Sect produces a batch of Foundation Building Pills every decade, there is never enough for the disciples within the sect and there is rarely an external supply.
For these cultivator families seeking Foundation Building Pills, they either need to exchange them with thousand-year-old medicinal herbs or use substantial amounts of Spirit Stones to bid for them during auctions.
Alternatively, they can send their disciples with excellent Spiritual Root Talent to the Divine Wood Sect to become true disciples and obtain Foundation Building Pills.
For instance, Lian Maozhi, who had distinguished himself during last year’s sect competition, was a nephew of Lian Chenghai.
Those exceptional individuals from cultivator families, who join the sect, naturally progress faster than ordinary disciples.
Not only do they have abundant resources, but they also have outcompeted others within their families.
But as a result, the cultivator families are sending their best bloodlines into the sect, making the sect stronger over time.
After all, cultivators tend to prioritize themselves, and even those from families who have succeeded in Foundation Establishment usually won’t return to their families after being protected by the big tree that is the Divine Wood Sect. They end up being confined to a corner.
Because in the Eastern Wilderness, the families of cultivators only have cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage at most.
But within the Divine Wood Sect, there’s a chance of Core Formation.
However, clear as they were about this, all the major cultivator families are still willing to send their outstanding disciples into those big sects.
Not only because they don’t have a steady supply of Foundation Building Pills, but also because it would be a major boon for their families if someone successfully establishes their foundation within a sect.
Who’s to say they can’t follow in Ji Zhenshi’s footsteps, swallowing an entire sect just with the power of one family or one clan?
Moreover, this wouldn’t interfere with the future of those with talent in the family.
For all the major cultivator clans, Foundation Building Pills are a sought-after rarity.
Many disciples in Qi Cultivation Perfection from these families only attempt to establish their foundations forcefully without consuming a Foundation Building Pill before they reach the age of sixty.
Over the past centuries, successful cases have been rarely seen, most of them ended up as giblets in their caves. This is a history written in blood and tears by the cultivator families.
Now with Chu Zuoshu’s such promise, not only did Lian Chenghai and other cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage breathe rapidly, but also those cultivators from families who were originally reluctant to come to Rolling Thunder Mountain to participate in the battle are now filled with excitement.
While this Foundation Building Pill may not necessarily end up on their heads, what if it does?
Seeing that everyone was getting excited about the upcoming battle, Chen Mobai gave Yue Zutao a thumbs up.
Over the past few days, the two of them had been leading cultivators on Rolling Thunder Mountain in practicing their battle arrays, but they found that most people were not very enthusiastic. After inquiring, they naturally found out the reasons.
Chen Mobai thought about it and felt that these people needed some reward as encouragement.
With no experience in this matter, he could only consult Yue Zutao.
Yue Zutao had a deep understanding of the Eastern Wilderness’ cultivator clans and even loose cultivators. Cultivator clans are after Foundation Building Pills, whereas loose cultivators want Spirit Stones and medicines.
The two of them mentioned this to Chu Zuoshu, who obviously agreed, and with a clap of his hands, he asked them to discuss the specifics of how many Spirit Stones and which pills should be rewarded for defeating cultivators of what ranks.
As for the matter of Foundation Building Pills, he personally spoke to the four families of Lei Nation, because as the Hall Master of the Reward Virtue Hall, Chu Zuoshu represented the Divine Wood Sect here.
