I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 583: Chapter 381: Returning to the Divine Wood Sect_1

After all the equipment and puppets have been tuned and adjusted, the puppet factory that had plunged Chen Mobai into a mountain of debt was finally completed.

After seeing off Chai Lun and Zhou Tiangong, Chen Mobai checked his account. With less than a million Good Deed Points left, he couldn’t help but feel slightly pressured.

Although his status as a Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage and having Qin Baipeng as his guarantor meant that his interest rate was at its lowest, the Good Deed Points in his account were barely enough to cover the interest due at the end of the year.

The urgent task at hand was to open up distribution channels.

This applied to both the Tianhe Realm and the Daoist Academy world.

However, Chen Mobai already had a plan in mind.

Within the Daoist Academy, there were only minimum standards set for the production of talisman paper.

The talisman papers produced by countless factories in the Thirty-Six Heavenly Realms and the Seventy-Two Blessed Lands all meet the minimum standards, with little difference in quality.

This, in turn, led to much differentiation.

For instance, some talisman factories, unable to survive the intense competition in the everyday talisman paper market, would start improving the quality of their talisman paper and strive for excellence.

Practically every factory in the Daoist Academy’s talisman market had its own high-quality products to tout.

The Feitian Talisman Factory, for instance, had a type of talisman paper called “Biyu” researched by Wu Shangru.

Named after the special product ‘Biyu Sweetgum’ from Red Sandstone City, this Rank-2 talisman paper was well-known in the talisman market of the Heavenly Realms and Blessed Lands in the east of the Daoist Academy.

The process of making this Biyu talisman paper was far more complex than that of Rank-1 talisman paper.

The pulp for Rank-1 talisman paper only required a practitioner-worker to add in the various spiritual elements at the right proportions to the smashed and boiled wood pulp. The subsequent steps such as removing impurities and pulp coagulation were all automatically done by the paper-making machine.

However, the pulp manufacture for Rank-2 talisman paper was not too different from alchemy. Even though Feitian Talisman Factory had specially made equipment for this, the materials consumed were several times more than that of Rank-1.

On top of that, experienced papermakers needed to constantly monitor the pulp quality. Excessive or insufficient spiritual element additives would impact the quality of the final product.

Feitian Talisman Factory, operating at full capacity, could produce about 10 sheets of Rank-2 Biyu talisman paper in a day.

However, the same factory could produce 100 times that amount, or 1000 sheets a day, of Rank-1 premium talisman paper.

In the Daoist Academy market, the price of Rank-2 talisman papers ranged from 500 to 5000 Good Deed Points, with top-quality Rank-2 talisman papers fetching prices almost comparable to Rank-3 talisman papers.’

Unfortunately, even when Wu Shangru himself oversaw the paper-making process, the highest quality of Biyu talisman paper ever produced was just of intermediate grade on the Rank-2 scale.

Aside from the Biyu talisman paper, the other specialty of the Feitian Talisman Factory was a kind of talisman ink called “Chixia.”

Thanks to the abundant Danzhu Ling Sha resources in Red Sandstone City, it relied on its high-quality materials and successfully produced Rank-3 talisman ink at the Feitian Talisman Factory.

Chen Mobai had already figured it out. Once the puppet factory was finished, it could work 24 hours a day without stopping. The equipment he paid a hefty sum for from Tiangong Equipment Factory could perfectly utilize the advantages of the puppets. It could produce Rank-1 talisman paper at a rate 10 times faster than the Feitian Talisman Factory.

The downside was that it could only produce Rank-1 talisman papers and inks.

So, from now on, the Feitian Talisman Factory would be in charge of the high-end, premium-quality Biyu talisman paper and Chixia talisman ink, while the puppet factory would channel all its might into generating Rank-1 talisman paper and ink. It would strive to snatch a portion of market share in the Tianhe Realm as well as the Daoist Academy.

On this morning,

Chen Mobai, who just finished meditating with a Spirit Stone in his hand, opened his eyes, and seeing that the spiritual energy in his Spirit Stone had depleted, he put it back into his storage bag.

This thing was a Spiritual Extract, which could make both Qing Nu and Wang Xingyu jump for joy.

He got up and pushed open the main door of the wooden house, which was located at the heart of the puppet factory, on a small hill where the Vermillion Fruit trees were cultivated.

This place was uninhabitable for ordinary people. But since he directly pushed the Spirit Stone into his Pure Yang Daoist Body, there was no need to absorb the spiritual energy still tainted with fire poison here.

In addition to his Pure Yang Daoist Body, the cultivation of his Five Elements Finger also only required applying ointment. He didn’t slack off in exercising his Divine Sense either.

The wooden house on the hill was naturally created from talismans.

Wooden House Talismans were deemed essential for the Daoist Academy, being extremely useful in both the Tianhe Realm and here.

Apart from his home, the one thing Chen Mobai was now most familiar with was the wooden house.

Be it at the Dance Tool Dao Academy, atop Little South Mountain, or here, they were all identical.

Upon stepping out of the wooden house, Chen Mobai looked towards the sky.

Far above in the sky, there was a cloud of mist, tinged with green and red, visible yet elusive.

This was the “Red Misty Cloud Silk” that had been refined further by Ming Yuhua.

Earlier in the year, when Chen Mobai was keeping busy with the student council affairs at the Dance Tool Dao Academy and preparing for the Rank-2 Talisman Maker exam, he used his free time to ask Ming Yuhua to infuse the Clear Wind Evil into the artifact.

The Red Misty Cloud Silk, after further refining, acquired an additional green aura to its original pale red hue hence turning into the current green and red misty clouds.

Above the green and red misty clouds, a faint silhouette could be seen sitting down.

It is a puppet which had reached the Golden Core Realm, powered by the energy from a premium-grade Spirit Stone.
