Chapter 435: Back and Forth
After being busy in the divine realm for more than twenty days, Chen Jiu finally returned to Jiuling Mountain in the mortal world.
There was nothing happening at Jiuling Mountain. The Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji was just waiting for him to bring back the 500,000 officials selected from the God Realm to replace those earthly immortals, so that those earthly immortals could comprehend the way of heaven, and break through to become gods through seclusion.
However, Chen Jiu still has a lot of things to do, such as the entrances to the kingdom of God that have not yet been cracked, and the magical herbs and medicines under the Fusang sacred tree.
These things cannot be completed in a day or two.
After he handed over the 500,000 selected officials from the God Realm and the 500,000 mortals who came to learn how to build a city to the Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji, he could not help but ask, "Master Ma, do you have enough magical herbs and elixirs?"
How do you say this?
Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji thought about it carefully, and then said carefully: "God, if we only refine more than 5,000 furnaces of divine pills, with the more than 2,000 newly cracked fairy herbs and spiritual medicines harvested from the Wood God Kingdom, plus the ones bought from Qingmu Market, this month's fairy herbs and spiritual medicines will be barely enough.
However, the last time the Supreme God said to add ordinary artifact alchemy furnaces, train immortal-level alchemists, and increase the production of immortal pills. I have already prepared 5,000 ordinary artifact alchemy furnaces, and the wood-type and fire-type earthly immortals are also ready.
If we start training a large number of immortal-level alchemists this month, we will be short of a lot of immortal herbs and elixirs. Lord, do you think we should start training immortal-level alchemists this month, or wait until next month?"
We can’t wait for this. Once an immortal-level alchemist is trained, he can directly refine immortal pills!
Chen Jiu said straightforwardly: "Of course we will start training immortal-level alchemists this month. Tell me, how many immortal herbs and elixirs are missing."
This is easy to calculate.
Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji calculated carefully, "God, five thousand ordinary divine artifact alchemy furnaces are divided into three groups of earthly immortals to take turns to refine the elixir. That's sixty thousand furnaces a day, and roughly six hundred thousand immortal herbs are needed, which means eighteen million immortal herbs a month."
My God, eighteen million magical herbs!
Then we must go to the Fusang sacred tree to collect it.
Chen Jiu was stunned for a moment, then asked : "When will the magical herbs we grow mature in large quantities?"
Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji estimated: "The first tens of thousands of spiritual fields that were opened should gradually mature in about two months. However, our spiritual plants were not very skilled at the beginning. At the beginning, they only opened tens of thousands of spiritual fields each month. It took about half a year for them to slowly become skilled.
By this calculation, we will have enough immortal herbs and medicinal herbs to refine 60,000 furnaces of immortal pills every day in about seven or eight months. In the first two months, we will have to trouble the gods to collect 18 million immortal herbs and medicinal herbs. After that, it should be no problem to reduce the number by two to three million each month."
Well, it looks like we don’t have to think about cracking the entrances to the kingdom of God in the Hall of All Stars in the next two months. There’s no need to rush anyway.
Chen Jiu nodded slowly, and then asked: "How is the current production of divine weapons? How many divine armors and divine weapons can be produced in a month?"
Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji said without hesitation: "God, now we can produce more than 10,000 sets of divine armor and more than 10,000 divine weapons every month. Adding the previous inventory, we can barely deliver the Hongmeng Sect's monthly order of 20,000 sets of divine armor and 20,000 divine weapons."
The Hongmeng Sect is really overbearing. They won't allow us to not sell them their magic armor and magic weapons.
All right, let’s make a lot of elixirs from them in the next few months. For the time being, I won’t give the divine armor and divine weapons to the true gods and demon gods in the divine world.
Chen Jiu thought about it carefully, and then asked: "We should have enough immortal armor and immortal soldiers, right?"
Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji nodded without hesitation and said, "We have enough. The stock is enough to supply them for two or three months."
Chen Jiu nodded slightly and said, "Okay, from now on, give me 20,000 sets of immortal armor and 20,000 immortal swords every month, and I will take them to the God Realm to help those earth immortals, demon immortals, true gods, and demon gods practice formations."
Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, God."
The next ones are the ones who practice the formation.
The Nine-Bend Formation is enough with Shui Ling Tianzun and Bai Ling Tianzun practicing in the God Realm, but the problem lies in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.
Now the true gods and demon gods in the mortal world who understand the Great Array of Ten Thousand Immortals are unable to go to the God Realm. The only ones who can go to the God Realm to practice the Great Array of Ten Thousand Immortals are Yangmei Tianzun, Jingrou Zhenjun and Wuyun Zhenjun, seven of them.
Tianzun Yangmei has to stay in Jiuling Mountain, so it is not good to separate him from Zhenjun Jingrou. He can only count on Zhenjun Wuyun and the other seven.
Chen Jiu thought about it, then asked, "Is anyone free, Mr. Turtle?"
Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji shook his head slightly and said, "Master Turtle and his men have been very busy recently. They have to arrange five people to teach the Five Elements Heavenly Dao to the Earthly Immortals, and two people to teach the Way of Space to the True Gods and Demon Gods respectively. There is no spare time at all."
What should I do?
It looks like we'll have to wait.
Chen Jiu sighed slightly and said, "Okay, I will take people to the Fusang sacred tree to collect magical herbs. In the next few days, you should calculate all the work, the manpower needed, and the remuneration you need to pay. It just so happens that Master Peng is going to Qingmufang Market to exchange for magical pills. When the time comes, I will give you the remuneration and then ask Master Peng to pick you up."
Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, God."
The next step is to go to the Fusang sacred tree to collect magical herbs and medicines.
He chose the second floor of the Fusang Divine Tree, which had the greatest harvest. Now that he improved the cracking method, the speed of cracking the Wood Divine Kingdom was twice as fast, but it still didn't work for other Divine Kingdoms. He had to slowly summarize the rules and arrange them in order according to the rules.
The second floor of the Fusang sacred tree is roughly half of the wood kingdom and half of other kingdoms. By this calculation, his speed has been increased by about 20 to 30%, and he can barely collect three million magical herbs and medicines a day.
He was busy like this for four or five days, and Winged Heavenly Master unexpectedly flew over.
Is this to go to the divine realm to exchange for this month's elixir?
He quickly stood up and asked, "Master Peng, are you going to Qingmufang Market to exchange for elixirs?"
Yuyi Tianzun nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, how much should we leave for Master Chen this month?"
Chen Jiu estimated: "The immortal pills below the cultivation king level are now distributed in the mortal world, you can just leave him three million bottles."
He decided to take advantage of the huge profits in the next few months and keep some elixirs for future use.
Yuyi Tianzun nodded without hesitation, and then flew to the top of the Fusang sacred tree.
He was busy for about two days, and then Yuyi Tianzun flew down from the top of the Fusang sacred tree again.
At this time, he had collected nearly 20 million immortal herbs and elixirs. He simply said to Yuyi Tianzun, "Master Peng, I will take you back to Jiuling Mountain. You can just put the remaining immortal pills of this month in my kingdom of God."
After saying that, he directly took Yuyi Tianzun back to the kingdom of God, and called back several disciples and all the earthly immortals who were collecting magical herbs and elixirs and took them back to the kingdom of God, and then flashed back to Jiuling Mountain in a few seconds.
When Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji saw him coming back, he quickly presented a long list and introduced it in detail: "God, this is the result of the calculation. The remuneration is calculated based on 300,000 bottles of elixirs per month. It clearly records how many people are needed for all the work and how much each person is paid."
Chen Jiu took a closer look and couldn't help but be shocked.
His Jiuling Mountain God Dynasty has a lot of miscellaneous work to do every month. It requires two to three million king-level, general-level and colonel-level people to do it every month, and each person has a lot of work to do.
However, this reward of 300,000 bottles of elixirs is really too little. Those at the school level may even need two months to earn one elixir, and those at the general level may only earn one or two elixirs after working for a month. Those at the king level are better, but not many can get a bottle of elixir as a reward in a month.
Distributing elixirs like this made him seem a bit stingy. It's not that he was short of elixirs, he just didn't want these mortals with spiritual roots to get used to getting something for nothing.
He thought about it carefully, and then said decisively: "Double everyone's salary. I will give you 600,000 bottles of elixir every month. In addition, their meals must be arranged well. We let them exercise, not let them do hard labor. You must remember this."
Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, Lord God, I understand."
Chen Jiu handed the 600,000 bottles of elixir to Ma Ji, and after thinking about it carefully, he handed the list to Yuyi Tianzun, and then gave detailed instructions: "Master Peng, take this to the Demon God City and ask Master Chen to gather people for you as soon as possible. When all the people are gathered, you can bring them to the mortal world.
I'd better go collect more magical herbs these days, in case the gods are too busy to come down."
Yuyi Tianzun took the list and smiled slightly, "Master Jiu, can you take me to the Fusang sacred tree again?"
Of course.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, took him into the kingdom of God, and quickly returned to the second floor of the Fusang Divine Tree.
He worked for another six or seven days and collected more than 20 million magical herbs and medicines. Then he returned to Jiuling Mountain and took a careful look.
At this time, Yuyi Tianzun had sent over two to three million mortals with spiritual roots. Every kingdom of God was bustling with busy figures, and all the work was done in an orderly manner.
What surprised him was that those kings, generals and colonels who were sent back were not unhappy because the spiritual energy in the mortal kingdom of God was not as rich as that in the divine world, but they were all very happy.
What is going on here?
After checking out several kingdoms of God, he couldn't help but ask, "Master Ma, why are they so happy?"
Upon hearing this, Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji could not help but sigh and said, "God, the reason why they are so happy is because they can see their relatives. They can be regarded as returning to the mortal world to visit their relatives.
After all, once they become immortals in the God Realm, they don’t know when they will be able to become gods, or even comprehend the way of space. It is very likely that they will not be able to come back for dozens or hundreds of years. When they come back, the relatives they know may not be around anymore.”
So that's how it is.
In fact, it is not impossible for mortals without spiritual roots in the Kingdom of God to live in the God Realm.
Next, he will build cities frantically in the God Realm. Cities can accommodate gods and mortals as well. Moreover, more people will make a city appear prosperous. If there are only gods guarding the city in a city, it will look too deserted.
Anyway, mortals without spiritual roots can continue to reproduce. Even if some mortals without spiritual roots are dragged to the divine realm, it doesn’t matter. The population in the divine realm here will not decrease as a result.
Chen Jiu thought about it carefully, and then said decisively: "Tell them to work hard to earn immortal pills and practice well. As long as they can practice and become immortals in the God Realm and can earn immortal pills with their own abilities, I will bring their relatives to the God Realm.
Also, the same goes for those who become gods in the mortal world and can go to the divine realm after understanding the way of space. I will take their relatives to the divine realm."
That's great.
In fact, Fire Prime Minister Ma Ji had the same worry. If he comprehended the way of space and went to the God Realm, and was too busy to come back, he might not be able to see his relatives here. It would be best if he could be brought to the God Realm.
He nodded repeatedly and said, "God, this is good, this is good. After all, no one wants to be separated from their loved ones."
Chen Jiu visited several divine kingdoms, took a careful look, and then returned to the divine realm to enlighten the earth immortals and demon immortals.
In the next few months, he kept going back and forth between the realm of gods and the mortal world.
Every month he would first go down to the mortal world, work on the second floor of the Fusang sacred tree for about half a month, collecting more than 40 million magical herbs and elixirs, and then return to the divine realm, work in the Demon God City for about half a month, enlightening the demon fairies and earth immortals.
He was busy going back and forth for several months, and finally waited for good news. There was a demon god in the mortal world who had comprehended the way of space. Moreover, this demon god was the Sun Tianjia he was most familiar with.
Sun Tianjia is not yet at the second level of True God, but at the third level, because he had already realized the Wood Element Heavenly Dao when he was the ruler of the Tianjia Divine Kingdom.
