The amount of resources a country possessed basically represented the wealth of a country.
Take Iraq for example. Although Iraq was in dire straits now, before it was bombed by the US, the per capita income of Iraq had reached more than 3,600 US dollars. At that time, it was already one of the richest countries, far higher than the per capita income of Hua Xia. However, after being bombed indiscriminately by the US, the Iraqi people had been living a miserable life of "democracy and freedom" ever since.
This was the case with wars between countries. No matter what the banner of the war was, in essence, it was a kind of plunder of other countries. No one would really launch a "selfless and just" war for free just to send the greetings of democracy and freedom to other countries.
In short, resources determined everything!
This was also the case in Jianghu. Most of the cultivation resources were controlled by the religions at the top of the Tower of Babel. These cultivation resources included cultivation methods, elixirs, wealth, and masters of sects and so on. The more resources one controlled, the stronger their disciples would be, and the more powerful their overall strength would be.
In the past, the Poison Sect's resources were relatively small, so there was no way for them to compete with colossal existences like the Buddhist Sect and the Taoist Sect. But now, the situation was different. Qin Lang had more and more resources in his hands, so he could also start to accumulate resources for the Poison Sect.
Now, Qin Lang's elixirs were in short supply, and Qin Lang's own need for money was not very strong. So in the future, if he wanted to buy elixirs from Poisons, it would not only be a matter of money, but also some special "resources," such as some elixirs, spirit beasts, or some heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
Through Qingcheng Sect, Qin Lang had already made a name for his elixirs, so he did not have to worry about not being able to sell his elixirs, nor did he have to worry about no one coming to trade with him.
Even the cleverest housewife can't cook without rice. The types of elixirs Qin Lang had refined were limited, and that was because the materials for alchemy were relatively scarce. It would be too difficult for Qin Lang to find these materials by himself. However, if Qin Lang used pills to exchange, he believed that many people in the Jianghu would be willing to exchange their treasured materials for pills. After all, compared to finished pills, the latter was obviously more attractive.
Even with alchemy materials, no one dared to guarantee that they could successfully refine the pill, because alchemy had a certain chance of failure, and the higher the grade of the pill, the higher the chance of failure. Therefore, in addition to alchemy materials, they also needed alchemy experts. Otherwise, the precious alchemy materials would instantly turn into a pile of worthless alchemy waste.
Crazy Devil Pill, Berserk Pill, and some other elixirs might not be of much use to Qin Lang, but he believed that other forces in the Jianghu would be interested in these elixirs, of course, including other things like Qi Explosion Pill and Yuan Enhancement Pill.
Now, Qin Lang spread the news through Qingcheng Sect. Anyway, there were more than a dozen kinds of elixirs placed there, and whoever had alchemy materials and the like could have priority to exchange for them. In this way, Qin Lang's alchemy materials would soon be abundant. In addition, Qin Lang could also get some spirit beasts, whose blood essence could also be alchemy materials. Moreover, after the stimulation of the acupuncture method, these spirit beasts would be even more useful, and they might even be able to recreate the glory of the ancient wild beasts.
Through the channels of Qingcheng Sect, the news quickly spread out.
Nowadays, the Qingcheng Sect had already regarded the business of medicinal pellets as the main business of the Qingcheng Sect. This was not only because the medicinal pellet business made the Qingcheng Sect profitable, but also because this business gave them real benefits. Just the medicinal pellets provided by Qin Lang were enough to make the people of the Qingcheng Sect work hard for them. Especially those high-grade elixirs, which could not be bought with money. For example, the Outer Sky Essence Pill, which was of great benefit to martial artists in the Martial Soul Realm. It was simply a good thing that could be encountered but not sought.
Now that Qin Lang had put forward a new condition, the people of Qingcheng Sect could completely understand. Since Qin Lang was a powerful alchemist, he naturally needed to collect a lot of alchemy materials. And if Qin Lang collected these alchemy materials, it meant that he might be able to refine more good elixirs, so the Qingcheng Sect could naturally get some benefits.
In terms of benefits, the Qingcheng Sect had now firmly occupied the number one position among the 12 Taoist sects. Aside from the Shendao Sect, the other 11 sects were now flattering the Qingcheng Sect. Even the people of the Shendao Sect were now polite to the Qingcheng Sect because no one wanted to go against elixirs.
Therefore, as soon as Qin Lang opened his mouth, the news quickly spread to the underworld. Not only the underworld of Pingchuan Province, but almost the entire underworld of Hua Xia began to spread about the matter of "exchanging for elixirs".
After the news spread, Qin Lang was too lazy to think about other things. He only cared about refining elixirs quickly because he knew that it wouldn't take long for a lot of alchemy materials to be sent to him.
In fact, on the same night, Qin Lang received a message from Daoist Shui Jing: the Qingcheng Sect had prepared a batch of alchemy materials for Qin Lang, and Daoist Shui Jing personally brought these materials to Qin Lang.
At the agreed place, Daoist Shui Jing had been waiting for a long time. When Qin Lang arrived, Daoist Shui Jing immediately placed the jade boxes containing the alchemy materials in front of Qin Lang. These boxes were opened in front of Qin Lang one by one. Qin Lang looked at the things inside. Sure enough, they were all good things. It seemed that the Qingcheng Sect had taken out all the good things they had. This was the greatest support for Qin Lang's alchemy.
"Mr Qin, we know that you may need alchemy materials now, so our Qingcheng Sect will absolutely support you unconditionally! These materials are the good stuff accumulated by the Grand Elders of the Qingcheng Sect and the sect for many years. As long as you think it's useful, you can take it. "Daoist Shui Jing was very generous.
However, Qin Lang also knew that Daoist Shui Jing's generosity stemmed from his trust in Qin Lang and the value that Qin Lang had shown. If Qin Lang had no value or was not high enough in the eyes of the Qingcheng Sect, they would not have shown such generosity at all. However, the Qingcheng Sect did not let Qin Lang down this time. They were even a little surprised by Daoist Shui Jing's performance, so Qin Lang accepted the materials of the Qingcheng Sect with a smile.
