After returning from the Mysterious Realm of the Sacred Tree, Chen Mobai was dealing with the affairs of the student union while taking the final exams for the elective courses he majored in.
His good brother Ming Yihua also came back two days ago.
After the exam, Ming Yihua immediately called the people in the Huashen class to have a drink.
"Old Ming, where did you go to refine the magic weapon this time? I haven't heard you brag for a whole year."
Wang Xingyu, who had just successfully built the foundation, caught up with the party and asked Ming Yihua curiously. He knew the latter's flamboyant and showy character best.
"I can't say, I signed a confidentiality agreement."
Ming Yihua had a gloomy look on his face, as if he didn't want to recall the experience of going out with his mentor this time.
When everyone heard the words "confidentiality agreement", they roughly understood what was going on, and they all changed the topic in a tacit understanding.
"Brother, are you free recently? I bought a copy of Qingfengsha on Xianmen.com a few days ago. I was wondering if I could refine it into the red clouds and mist to increase the power of this magical weapon."
After the party, Chen Mobai, Ming Yihua, and Yunyang Bing continued to refill their drinks in a small circle.
"Qingfengsha? Lao Chen, you are very lucky. You can get all these things. Is it first-order or second-order?"
After hearing this, Ming Yihua couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
Qingfengsha is the most common evil spirit in Xianmen. It is an earthly evil spirit formed by the flow of spiritual energy blowing between the woods and the intersection of wind and wood energy.
Generally, in places with developed forest vegetation, fairy gates have set up formations to artificially cultivate Qingfengsha.
But after all, it is also the spirit of earth evil. Although the price is controlled by Xianmen, the supply is still in short supply, and every time it is put on the shelves, it will be sold out.
"My luck is average, I only got the first level one."
Chen Mobai picked up the earth evil spirits in Gunlei Mountain. Among them, he could refine the second-level ones into five-element sword evil spirits, but the remaining two first-level ones, Qingfeng evil spirit and peach blossom evil spirit, planned to refine them into magic weapons. , increase the power.
Among them, Qingfengsha has a wide circulation in the immortal sect, so it can be taken out openly.
Peach blossom evil is a kind of earth evil miasma that is born in the peach blossom forest. Although there are artificial synthesis channels in the fairy sect, due to its narrow use, basically no one takes the initiative to cultivate it, and it has not been traded on the market for several years. , so Chen Mobai didn't take it out.
"It's a simple matter, but I have to go home this year, and I may have to wait until school starts next year."
Ming Yihua patted his chest and said it was a trivial matter. He had already passed the second level weapon refiner and treasure appraiser exams a few years ago. This year he went out to practice with the large force of the weapon refining department, and he was even more confident that he could pass the third level. The assessment of the weapon refiner.
But after all, Chixia Yunyanluo is also a second-level magical weapon. Refining and upgrading it is more troublesome than refining it, so it needs to use various equipment from the Taoist Refining Department. Ming Yihua's family does not have such conditions.
"Thanks, brother."
Chen Mobai didn't say anything more and toasted.
"There's no need to be polite between us brothers. Just give me two jars of good wine next year."
Ming Yihua is personable and enthusiastic, and has a good relationship with everyone in the God Transformation Class.
"Okay, I'll give you the best wine from my hometown next year."
Chen Mobai thought that next year there would be a new large jar of second-level spirit wine fermented and matured in Xiaonan Mountain, and he could give some to Ming Yihua by then.
"If I remember correctly, this Chixia Yunyanluo should be one of the decompositions of the most comprehensive fourth-level magic weapon of our Wuqi Taoist Academy, the Taiyi Five Yanluo. The director of our Formation Department taught it in an open class , using the different forms of evolution of the five elements of aura, such as red clouds, breeze, water mist, jade dew, and smoke, to form a unified formation, integrating attack and defense, with infinite power."
Yun Yangbing on the side saw the two talking about Chixia Yunyanluo, and remembered a class he happened to have attended, and couldn't help but interject.
"With the current situation of the Immortal Sect, it is basically impossible to practice the complete Taiyi Five Yanluo. At most, it will be like Lao Chen who can refine into the Qingfengsha."
Ming Yihua also knew about this matter. After all, it was one of the iconic magical weapons of Wuqi Taoist Academy. However, as a genius of the weapon refining department, he was more aware of the difficulties involved.
The refining of Taiyi Wuyanluo is not an ordinary change in the form of the five elements' spiritual energy.
For example, Chen Mobai's Chixia Yunyanluo is a second-level mid-grade. If a large amount of second-order Qingfengsha is refined into it, it can be upgraded to a second-order high-grade or even the peak.
But if you want to upgrade to the third level, you not only need to find the third level spiritual material water mist ice crystal, but you also need to upgrade the previous Chixia Yunyanluo and Qingfengsha to the third level.
In other words, if you want to practice the complete Taiyi Five Yanluo, you need at least the fourth level of five materials: Chixia, Qingfeng, Water Mist, Jade Dew, and Smoke.
Based on the resources of Earth Yuan Star, even Master Yuanying may not be able to collect them all.
However, there are many talented people in Wuqi Taoist Academy, so someone came up with the idea of decomposing Taiyi Wuyanluo and using the formation to evolve the power of the magic weapon.
The five elements of spiritual energy are transformed into five formation flags, simulating the power of Taiyi's five smokes. The power of this formation depends on the level of the formation flag. It can be achieved from level one to level four.
Chen Mobai had only heard of Taiyi Wuyanluo, but he didn't know that it could be broken down into formations.
He silently remembered Yun Yangbing's words in his heart.
If you encounter these materials in the Tianhe Realm in the future, you can collect them.
After the gathering of the God Transformation Class, Chen Mobai's seventh-grade career at the Dance Academy also came to an end.
"I won't be coming next year."
In the student union, Hua Zijing waved to everyone in a seemingly carefree manner.
"Thank you for your hard work these past two years."
Chen Mobai looked at her and thanked her sincerely. If it weren't for her help, he would definitely not be able to take charge of the student union so easily.
"goodbye."
After Hua Zijing said these two words, she seemed not to dare to stay any longer, and turned around and left.
"President, will we be able to see Senior Sister Hua again in the future?"
There were tears in Zhuang Jialan's eyes. She was more emotional and not as controllable as Hua Zijing. She couldn't help but blush slightly when she saw her seniors graduating this year with whom she was familiar with various tasks of the student union.
"Yes, as long as we live long enough, we will meet again one day."
Chen Mobai smiled slightly, calmed his subordinates' emotions, and then continued to work.
"Is there anything I can do?"
The person who asked this question was Zhongli Tianyu. He thought it would be cool to become the president of the student union, so he was ready to work hard to become a qualified chief.
"You follow me."
As soon as Hua Zijing graduated, Chen Mobai felt that the work pressure was much greater, so he planned to train Zhongli Tianyu as soon as possible, and then, like Zuo Qiushi, abdicate in favor of others.
In the next half month, Chen Mobai led everyone from the student union to travel between major departments and began to cooperate with teachers in preparing next year's teaching plan.
"The rest will be hard on you."
After everything was done, Chen Mobai waved goodbye to the student union members who stayed behind in the Taoist Academy.
In Danxia City, his talisman factory still had some important documents waiting for him to go back and sign.
"Mr. Chen, if you have no objection to the terms, just sign here."
In the Xianmen Bank in Danxia City, Chen Mobai once again signed a loan agreement.
The amount of good deeds he wants to borrow this time is still five million. In addition to the five million he used to buy the elixir of life-extension academy, the total is already a huge debt of tens of millions of deeds.
There is no collateral for this loan, it is only in Chen Mobai's personal name.
If he hadn't been the chief of the Wuqi Taoist Academy and the first foundation builder of the Immortal Sect, plus the guarantor of Qin Baipeng, the lord of Danxia City, he might not have been able to get the loan.
"Thank you City Lord for your guarantee."
After coming out of Xianmen Bank, Chen Mobai thanked Qin Baipeng.
"This is Danxia City's policy for foundation-building monks. When Wu Shangru settled down, he also had this kind of treatment, but your loan amount is slightly larger."
Chen Mobai naturally understood the meaning of Qin Baipeng's words. After thanking him again, he wanted to invite the city lord to have a meal, but Qin Baipeng shook his head and refused.
"You are not the only Foundation Establishment monk who has to apply for a loan at the end of the year. I also have several factories to visit."
In Danxia City, not every foundation-building monk can succeed in doing business, and there are also many who lose money.
However, this loss may be a real loss, or it may be a loss by the factory, but as the boss, the foundation-building monk's pockets are bulging.
So Qin Baipeng wants to examine these factories that may have problems.
The reason why Chen Mobai applied for a personal loan of five million yuan was supported by Qin Baipeng was because he was famous enough.
It has been spread that the Chief of Wuqi Taoist Academy, coupled with Jumang Taoist Academy's competition, surpassed the entire Immortal Sect's foundation building, and has been considered by many people to be the talent to transform into a god.
In addition, this was the first time Chen Mobai asked for support from their Danxia City agencies after settling in. It was already promised. With all the conditions added up, Qin Baipeng was willing to come forward to help him guarantee a loan of five million for good deeds.
You know, other foundation-building monks only have a maximum of two million good deeds.
Chen Mobai kept Qin Baipeng's kindness in his heart.
With the loan in hand, plus the profit of 800,000 yuan from the talisman factory's remaining good works this year, the total starting capital is 5.8 million yuan.
The puppet factory can start preparing.
He first called Chai Lun, his senior who had previously led him to make acting puppets at the Dance Academy. The latter opened a puppet factory in his hometown after graduation and was said to have made a lot of good work in the figurine industry.
But what Chen Mobai ordered from him was a serious puppet.
As one of the geniuses who graduated from the puppet department, Chai Lun also knew about the puppet factory. After receiving the call, he expressed great interest and would come to discuss the business in person.
Next, Chen Mobai began to purchase the core of the puppet factory.
"Hey, hey, hello, Senior Lou, I'm Chen Mobai..."
At Butian Taoist Temple, Lou Fengcheng, who had just had his bandages removed and his skin recovering from burns, put down the phone in his hand with a speechless expression.
Why is the chief of the Dance Instrument Temple so thick-skinned?
After beating yourself up like this, you still have the nerve to call me and ask me for help!
Lou Fengcheng wanted to hang up the phone on the spot, but after thinking about it, it was better not to have any enmity with this ruthless person. He just happened to buy him an apotheosis bead, even if he knew the tricks he had done during the competition in the future. , it will be easier to resolve in the future.
"Hello, Mr. Shi, I have a 'friend' who wants to buy a second-order celestial bead. Does your department still have it in stock?"
One day later, Chen Mobai couldn't help but smile when he saw the link for payment and ordering at the backend of Butian Daoyuan flagship store sent by Lou Fengcheng.
"What's the matter, are you smiling so happily?"
Yan Bingxuan, who was eating fish, couldn't help but asked strangely when she saw Chen Mobai's face.
"I bought a fortune-telling bead."
"Is it the fortune bead from Butian Taoist Academy? The chief of our department has always wanted to buy one, but he couldn't get it."
It was Shi Jingjing who said this. Today is Chen Mobai's high school class reunion, but only one table of people came. Most people did not return to Danxia City, and some were there but did not come.
Those who came include Yan Bingxuan, Cao Yaling, Shi Jingjing, Lu Hongsheng, Pujiang Xue, Yu Shu, Xu Yuan, and Shi Yuanqing.
Song Zheng and Mo Simin didn't come back, otherwise they would definitely come over based on their relationship with Chen Mobai.
"I was able to buy it because of my connections. I was a friend I met during a sparring session at Jumang Taoist Academy. As the ancients said, more friends lead to more paths. Isn't this helpful?"
If Chen Mobai's words were heard by people from Butian Taoist Academy, they would definitely not believe it.
During the sparring session on the island in the lake, among all Chen Mobai's opponents, Lou Fengcheng suffered the most misfortune. He was defeated by the sword evil spirit, and the fire poison entered his body. After returning, he lay down for more than a month.
"Classmate Cao, today I mainly want to congratulate you on your successful foundation building."
Chen Mobai raised the drink in his hand and congratulated Cao Yaling. Among the people in their fifth high school, after time and experience, they finally figured out who was the real number one.
After Chen Mobai, the second person to build a foundation is the most genius.
"It's just good luck. Yuan Qing has also understood the critical method. I think I will be able to build the foundation next year."
Cao Yaling smiled slightly and spoke. She had always had a quiet temperament. If she was with Shi Jingjing, she could even stay silent for a whole day, because the latter would finish all the words for her.
"Well, seeing that you are all talking about foundation building, I am the only one who is already thinking about military service."
Lu Hongsheng, who has the lowest cultivation level and is still stuck at the sixth level of Qi training without realizing spiritual consciousness, has a sad look on his face. There are still three years left, and it is definitely impossible for him to build the foundation. As a male cultivator, he has to serve in the military for ten years.
"Me too, but I'm thinking about whether to get married after graduation."
Chen Mobai's beautiful lady in front of her, Yu Shu, also sighed and spoke. She was at the seventh level of Qi training and wanted to make further progress in her practice. However, military service was also very difficult for women, and she was afraid of it.
As soon as the topic came up about military service, the rest of the people started talking about what they had learned.
Except for Shi Yuanqing, who was confident that he could build a foundation before graduation, everyone else was worried and had considered military service.
Chen Mobai noticed that Yan Bingxuan was eating the grilled fish he brought over without saying a word, and couldn't help but feel a sudden surprise in his heart.
"Hasn't your ice spirit root been improved yet?"
After the show, Chen Mobai and Yan Bingxuan were walking back, and he asked about the doubts in his heart.
Among her classmates, Yan Bingxuan had the highest spiritual root value.
"Spiritual roots can always be improved before they reach 100."
Yan Bingxuan said calmly as she walked.
"You know that's not what I want to ask. Are you sure about building the foundation?"
After hearing Chen Mobai's direct question, Yan Bingxuan stopped. She raised her head, their eyes met, and then shook her head.
"I'm not sure. Maybe I'm not talented enough. I haven't understood the critical method yet."
