Wang Daoyuan scanned the other ten foundation-building monks with his spiritual consciousness. These people all carried a strong evil spirit, and they were all characters who had experienced life and death.
Such people can still survive to the late stage of foundation building, either because of bad luck or because they have real skills.
It is not difficult for eleven late-stage foundation-building and peak-level monks with rich fighting skills, combined with formations and third-level magic weapons, to kill ordinary third-level low-grade monsters.
An inner elixir was worth around 100,000 spirit stones before, but it's hard to say what's going on now.
A large third-level low-grade monster has no inner elixir, and its corpse can be worth more than 400,000 spirit stones.
Add one of the two together, and there are half a million spiritual stones.
If there are no other losses, one person can get more than 40,000 spiritual stones.
Even if you do this business once a year, it is still a very high income for a foundation-building monk who is not proficient in alchemy and talismans.
No one does the business of losing money, but the business of beheading is rushed to do it.
As long as there are enough benefits, there will be many people who are not afraid of death.
Wang Daoyuan asked: "You have such a livelihood, why are you willing to invest in my management of the envoy?
The foundation-building monks who manage the Envoy's Mansion only have a salary of more than two thousand spirit stones a year, which is incomparable to hunting third-level monsters."
Wang Dezhao replied: "This bowl of rice is not delicious either. How can there be any foolproof way to fight the weak against the strong?"
If you are not careful, you will damage the magic weapon and array disk. Third-level magic weapons are not something that is sold on the street. If it is broken, it will be difficult to buy a suitable one.
Without a magical weapon in hand, death or injury will inevitably occur.
My grandson has been eating this bowl of rice for more than ten years, and every year at least one or two of his companions die at the hands of monsters.
Therefore, my companions and I want to work under the Imperial Envoy and find a job."
Wang Daoyuan also wanted to accept ten people. They had extremely rich experience in hunting third-level monsters and could provide the Imperial Envoy with foundation-building elixir materials and third-level weapon refining materials.
They can also be asked to take the monks who guard the palace to kill the third-level monsters and accumulate experience for dealing with the beast tide in the future.
Wang Daoyuan nodded and said: "I don't have any objection to accepting you, but it's really too humiliating for you to be the same as the ordinary monks of the Guarding Hall.
I plan to set up another Demon Slayer Division under the Guard Hall to recruit casual cultivators like you.
Third-level magic weapons, elixirs, spiritual talismans, and formation disks will be sent out from the Imperial Envoy's Office, and flying warships will accompany them for protection. You continue to hunt monsters.
By the way, help me train the other monks who guard the temple and teach them how to fight against monsters.
After killing the monster, the corpse, including the inner elixir, must be sold to the Imperial Envoy at market price.
50% of the proceeds will be given to the governor's office, and the rest will be distributed among the monks participating in the war according to their contribution.
I don’t know, what do you think?”
The ten casual cultivators agreed to the proposal without even thinking about it.
The conditions given by Wang Daoyuan were too generous, and everything was taken care of by the Minister of Economic Affairs.
As long as they don't take the initiative to go deep into the Tianzhan Mountains to seek death, their lives will hardly be in danger and they won't suffer any losses.
Under this condition, apart from being able to obtain the raw materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill, the Governor's Office would actually have no profit.
But what Wang Daoyuan wants is not profit. Now he can make a lot of money just by relying on the two trade routes of Lvliuzhou and Guiyanfang City.
What he lacks is not spiritual stones, but people, people who can deal with third-level monsters.
Seeing that none of them had any objections, Wang Daoyuan ordered: "His Royal Highness will set up a Demon Slaying Division, which will be under the personal jurisdiction of the Palace Master.
The daily treatment of monks in the Demon Slayer Division is the same as that of other monks.
If you make great achievements in the future, you may also have the opportunity to obtain spiritual veins and establish a family.
Fifth Uncle, please go arrange them."
The fifth uncle got up and was about to take them down.
Wang Dezhao said quickly: "Uncle Qi, I have one more thing to report.
Another reason why we came to the Imperial Envoy's Mansion this time was that we discovered the ancient monk's cave and got some things in it that we didn't need.
So, I want to sell this thing to the family in exchange for some resources."
The value of the caves of ancient monks is still extremely high. Even for ancient monks with low cultivation levels, the caves may still contain some inheritance from ancient times, or spiritual objects that are almost invisible to the outside world.
Everything that comes out of the ancient monk's cave is of some use.
Wang Daoyuan asked: "Take out the things and let me take a look. As long as they are useful, you will benefit from them."
Hearing his assurance, the faces of the eleven people showed joy.
A man at the peak of foundation building took out a few torn animal skin pages from his storage bag.
Wang Daoyuan found the pages of the animal skin book and examined them, and found that the things recorded in them were very complicated.
Not many of the elixir recipes, methods for refining magic weapons, and some of the secrets of some exercises are complete, and have almost no practical value. They can only be used as a reference.
He did not bargain with this group of juniors, and said: "A book like this costs five thousand spiritual stones, and you can take out as many as you have left."
Seeing him asking for a price, everyone else also took out animal skin pages, totaling more than forty pages in total.
Some people also took out broken magic weapons, but they were of no use, so Wang Daoyuan confiscated them.
Finally, Wang Dezhao took out a shriveled fruit and a complete animal skin book.
This shriveled fruit is curled up into a ball, and its skin is purple-gold.
The spiritual energy in the fruit has dissipated completely, and it is not clear what grade of spiritual object it is. There are still ten seeds the size of sesame seeds inside.
Wang Daoyuan took out the seeds, condensed a water ball in his hand, and wrapped the shriveled fruit inside.
Soon, the fruit was soaked and expanded to more than three inches in diameter.
Now Wang Daoyuan could recognize what it was, a fourth-level low-grade spiritual fruit—Purple Gold Chalcedony Fruit.
This is also the main medicine for refining the Zijin Peiyuan Pill. The Chalcedony Peiyuan Pill is the elixir used by Golden Pill monks to improve their cultivation.
After the seeds of the purple chalcedony fruit are planted, it takes thousands of years to bloom and bear fruit.
Thereafter, it bears fruit every thousand years.
Even if the seeds are planted now, it will take two thousand years to harvest.
Even if there is a spirit bead space, it will still take nearly fifty years.
It is not difficult to find other auxiliary medicines for the Chalcedony Peiyuan Pill. With this purple-gold chalcedony fruit, other elixirs are at your fingertips.
As for this complete animal skin book, it is called "Yunyu Heart Sutra".
Looking at the name, I really don’t know what it is.
After opening the cover, there is an introduction to the Yun Yu Heart Sutra.
This book is not a serious exercise, but a dual cultivation secret technique.
It was created by a pair of Jindan Taoists more than 30,000 years ago.
These Taoist couples should be the owners of the cave.
This Taoist couple is also a strange couple. They just created a secret technique for dual cultivation. The secret book also has illustrations.
Wang Daoyuan had never seen anything in the market in his previous life, so when he saw these things, he felt no emotion in his heart.
He put away the animal skin book and said: "This fruit is a purple-gold chalcedony fruit, used to refine fourth-level elixirs.
It's a pity that the medicinal effect of the fruit has disappeared, and I don't know if the seeds left behind can germinate. One seed is worth two thousand spiritual stones to you.
This animal skin book is a secret technique left by the Jindan monk, and it will count one hundred thousand spiritual stones for you."
After hearing this, Wang Dezhao was overjoyed. He didn't expect to get hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones so easily.
After paying the spirit stones, the fifth uncle took them all down.
Wang Daoyuan lamented that this great-nephew was really a timely gift.
The two things I took out were what I needed urgently right now.
In addition, he is the great-great-grandson of the ninth uncle, so he must be trained well in the future.
He is less than ninety years old and has a good talent at the eighth level of foundation building.
It won't take long to reach the peak of foundation building. If you give him enough resources, he should be able to reach it before he is a hundred years old.
Wang Daoyuan sent a letter to his third brother asking about Wang Dezhao's spiritual root qualifications, and learned that his grandnephew was a second spiritual root monk, and his main spiritual root was the eight-inch five-point fire spiritual root.
There are currently no highly talented clan members in the Ming generation, and the best ones are the three spiritual roots whose main spiritual root is more than seven inches.
Wang Dezhao is the most talented person among the De generation, so we can give him a chance to open up the Zi Mansion in the future.
