Seeing the joy on Bai Yue's face, Lin Ye also smiled. Since the outbreak of the blood disaster, many people have been using spirit-suppressing formations. Bai Yue couldn't be happier; she felt like she belonged to the group.
The spirit-suppressing formation also helps Bai Yue conceal her identity as the elixir of immortality, a way of keeping her wealth hidden.
“Young Master Lin…” Bai Yue sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes filled with anticipation.
That night.
Lin Ye took Bai Yue to her room and gave her a good nourishing meal.
He harbored resentment towards the Hehuan Sect from the era of the Giant Gods: "That's what you call dual cultivation, bro..."
Even defeating a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator would be no problem!
Moreover, Bai Yue has a special physique and her combat power far surpasses that of Nascent Soul cultivators of the same level!
Bai Yue blushed and breathed softly on the bed.
She was completely satisfied, but she didn't know why Lin Ye was so unbreakable today.
"Young Master Lin, I've noticed that rare and precious herbs are so scarce lately..."
"If Young Master Lin needs it, I can pluck a leaf from my own leaf and give it to you to help you recover."
Bai Yue said softly.
For her, picking a leaf might not be a big deal, but it would still deplete her energy.
However, she really wanted to help Lin Ye.
Lin Ye smiled and shook his head.
"Don't underestimate me. Even rare and precious materials that have disappeared from the market can be found as old or substitute products."
"We'll ascend together in the future, Bai Yue, so don't do things that will harm your vitality."
While Baiyue's leaves are good, Lin Ye is not lacking in these nutrients.
Bai Yue nodded, feeling quite tempted.
To become immortals together...that's what she wanted too!
Given Bai Yue's background, she naturally has far more confidence in becoming an immortal than ordinary cultivators.
She was a little scared, though, because the Lord of the Great Wilderness might also become an immortal, since it was rumored that she was waiting for her husband... Bai Yue sighed.
If I'm progressing faster than my husband, I'll wait too!
late at night.
Bai Yue herself is the best tonic, and Lin Ye is full of energy and continues to accumulate experience points.
A halftime break is inevitable.
Lin Ye arrived at the workshop.
He is currently in charge of manufacturing lithography machines.
This is a machine for producing chips; currently, only Lin Ye's Eye of the Candle Dragon can produce lithography machines.
The creation of other magical artifacts can be left to Master Gongshu and the Meteor Fire Sect; their skills are trustworthy.
Within the purification array.
Lin Ye placed a part on the workbench, lost in thought.
"Boss Ye previously revealed that the Star Alliance might open up internal secret realm techniques to cultivate talented cultivators, which would cause considerable trouble. I think it's best to obtain one as soon as possible."
"But before I came into contact with the Star Alliance, I needed at least a pretext to claim I could produce a large number of spiritual artifacts, which was an unusual phenomenon in the chaotic spiritual energy environment of the Colossus era."
"An internal furnace...could that be a viable cover?"
Lin Ye was deep in thought.
The more I think about it, the more reliable it seems.
'The internal furnace method is almost a completely different system from ordinary weapon forging!'
'Just look at Bai Yue. She used to be completely clueless about ordinary weapon-refining techniques, but she can still refine weapons using the furnace within her body.'
'A cultivator's internal environment is more stable than the external environment, and the internal furnace, influenced by the giant god, should be significantly smaller.'
The method for cultivating an internal furnace was lost in the Dharma-ending Age.
'It just so happens that none of the cultivators from the era of the Giant Gods could see through my disguise—I only need to disguise myself as a cultivator with a Golden Fire Spiritual Root and an Inner Furnace, and that'll make sense, right?'
Lin Ye's eyes lit up.
There's something going on!
"Now that's the decoy, isn't it? My secret has become—I accidentally obtained an ancient internal furnace technique, and I'm naturally suited for it."
"But in reality, the internal furnace cannot forge high-precision spiritual weapons, thus limiting its reach to the high-end market."
'No need to hide it; we can just find a good opportunity to hand it over to the Star Alliance.'
'This should bring a lot of benefits, right...?'
Lin Ye's eyes lit up.
With this trick, their extremely high output can be barely justified.
After all, people in the age of the Titans were unfamiliar with the internal furnaces.
Just finding a suitable weapon refiner with the Golden Fire Spirit Root and mastering the method would probably take one or two years.
Who knows if Lin Ye was born with a naturally high-quality internal furnace, which is why his production speed is so incredibly fast... or if he's secretly raising a group of disciples with internal furnaces in some hidden place...
If the plan goes smoothly...
'Back in the ancient cultivation era, I already used future weapon-refining techniques to deal with the weapon refiners whose internal furnaces were forged.'
'In the future era of giants, the lost internal furnace has been brought here to mend the damaged future weapon-forging techniques. Isn't that a coincidence...?'
Lin Ye couldn't help but laugh: 'This is what you call a perfect match!'
......
the next day.
In the morning, the brothers gathered in the front yard of Lin Ye's house.
Baili Jingchen sighed, "Life is getting harder and harder every day... Spiritual artifacts are becoming so hard to sell..."
Fu Zongshi said with a bitter face, "That's right, talismans are the same!"
Elixirs are almost a necessity in cultivation.
Even if a cultivator is hiding at home from disaster, they still need elixirs.
So alchemists are doing alright. Although production and exploration have come to a standstill due to the blood disaster, cultivators are generally short of spirit stones, and the price of pills has dropped.
But not by much, only a drop of 20% to 30%.
The situation is slightly better for the formation masters.
Most cultivators simply went into seclusion to avoid disaster, but if they still wanted to continue their activities outside, the "Spirit-Suppressing Formation" was basically a necessity.
The downside is that if the spirit-suppressing formation is broken, the cultivator will be in danger.
Therefore, purchasing high-level spirit-suppressing formations with strong defensive capabilities has become a necessity for the small number of cultivators still exploring outside.
In addition, cultivation aids like the Spirit Gathering Array also have a market...
On average, the income of array masters has decreased by 30% to 40%.
However, Fu Zongshi and Baili Jingchen, these two unfortunate brothers, were different.
Talismans! Spiritual artifacts!
These are all products primarily used for magical combat, and hardly anyone buys them in this era.
Talisman masters can also create lower-level alternatives to spirit-suppressing magic arrays, but their income has dropped to about 20-30% of what it used to be.
The plight of weapon refiners is even worse; some have absolutely no income...
The two dejected men drank heavily, much to the dismay of Kun Zhengqing and Nangong Chong.
Fu Zongshi looked at Lin Ye: "Linzi, how is your family situation?"
Baili Jingchen nodded, then asked curiously, "That's right, Fellow Daoist Lin, I heard your factory is still operating! Even if you want to stockpile goods, you shouldn't be doing so at this price level..."
Kun Zhengqing nodded: "Stop, Lin."
Lin Ye laughed and said, "I'm doing alright, I have a market."
Everyone was astonished.
"Lin, how...how did you do that?"
Lin Ye shrugged and explained, "Actually, I possess a large, naturally isolated secret realm."
"It can be sold there... but only certain products sell well."
"Xiao Fu, Baili, you two come and take a look."
Lin Ye wrote down a list of several ancient talismans and magical artifacts that still had a market even in the era of the giant gods.
Although this type is not common, it does exist.
Some things are so perfect that they haven't changed at all over the years.
For example, exorcism talismans, and handheld spiritual weapons such as swords.
Lin Ye thought that things other than spiritual artifacts couldn't be explained by the internal furnace, but since the market price wasn't high right now, he could sell them as soon as he gained a foothold in the era of the giant gods.
"I can accept as much of these things as you make."
Lin Ye smiled and said, "I'll give you a friendly purchase price... but for the ones made by your family, I'll buy them at the current market price."
Baili Jingchen was stunned and exclaimed, "Fellow Daoist Lin, you're so kind! You can even eat the family's goods!?"
Fu Zongshi exclaimed in surprise, "That's wonderful... Linzi, you're not kidding, are you? I really notified my family?"
"I'm definitely not joking."
Lin Ye said, "By the way, I'm planning to hold a big banquet in the city soon, which will hopefully boost morale. There might be a million-level demand for single-day effective spirit-suppressing talismans on the market... Xiao Fu, keep an eye out for it."
Fu Zongshi nodded: "Good, that's great!"
"Thank you so much, Linzi..."
Fu Zongshi and Baili Jingchen were overjoyed.
We were almost driven to the point of having nothing to do when suddenly an order came in. Who could handle that?
.......
These days.
Lin Ye's life was very fulfilling, filled with dual cultivation, learning to imitate the internal furnace technique, and searching for fragments of the Heavenly Emperor.
Ten days later.
The banquet celebrating Alchemist Xiao's entry into the Nascent Soul stage has begun.
The entire Demon Subduing Workshop was filled with banquets, and even the giant flying boat in the sky was packed with people.
The venue below was already packed with people. Although the attendees all carried their own small spirit-suppressing arrays or had temporary spirit-suppressing talismans affixed to their sleeves, it was still very lively.
The main venue was on a giant flying ship. As the main character, Alchemist Xiao followed Lin Ye onto the flying ship first, and they were all stunned by the scale of the banquet.
"Young Master Lin, in this day and age, using so many spiritual materials is too much of a burden for you, isn't it?"
When Alchemist Xiao saw the endless banquet, his legs almost gave way.
This spectacle...
Isn't this even closer than a biological father?!
Lin Ye helped Xiao Lian Dan Shi up and said with a smile, "It's nothing."
Alchemist Xiao shivered.
Young Master Lin's seemingly trivial matter has become far too grand in scale...
"The documents and tokens I sent from my hometown have arrived! Please take a look, Young Master Lin."
