That batch of resources was split among many Grand Heaven Alliance sects, but because of Lu Ye's contribution, the Jade Blood Sect took the majority.
It was also because of that batch of resources that Shui Yuan was able to step into the Divine Sea Realm.
But at that time, the sect had to continue to develop, so Shui Yuan did not dare to use too many resources.
However, as Lu Ye maneuvered in the core circle and extorted 20 to 30 million worth of resources from the various sects in the core circle, Shui Yuan did not have too many restrictions on using resources for cultivation.
It was foreseeable that with another batch of resources, Shui Yuan's cultivation would get higher and higher.
After all, in the entire Jade Blood Sect, only she and the sect master were in the Divine Sea Realm. The sect master did not need to cultivate anymore. If Shui Yuan was willing, she could pour the entire sect's resources on herself. This was an advantage that no Divine Sea Realm cultivator could have.
Lu Ye was only in the Cloud River Realm now, so he did not need to think too deeply about the future. It would not be too late to think about it after he reached the True Lake Realm.
Inside the Tianji Treasury, Lu Ye was picking and choosing from his storage space, selling some things that he and the Sect could not use for the time being. His contribution points were increasing at an extremely impressive rate.
He only stopped when he reached the 300,000 mark.
Close to 300,000 merit points was enough for him to use. Even if he encountered any danger in the future, he could invite the Tian Ji Pillar to escape.
But then again, inviting the Tian Ji Pillar did not guarantee that he would be able to escape from danger.
In the hunting ground, he was protected by the Golden Body Token, so the Thousand Demons Ridge cultivators could not do anything to him. Without the Golden Body Token, even if he invited the Tian Ji Pillar, he might not be able to get close.
Therefore, he could only use this method to save his life if he had enough space and time to move.
Then, Lu Ye started to buy the Earth Core Fire and devoured it one by one.
The fuel for the Talent Tree needed to be replenished quickly. In the past, he only knew that the Talent Tree could burn poison. Now, he knew that the Talent Tree could even burn the Soul Extinguishing Lightning. In the future, he might be able to burn something else.
As time passed, the Earth Core Fire was devoured one by one.
What surprised Lu Ye was that the leaf on the Talent Tree did not react at all.
Only after devouring close to 200 Earth Core Fire did a leaf on the Talent Tree start to show signs of burning.
Lu Ye guessed that his encounter this time had caused the Talent Tree to feel a sense of crisis. Therefore, the Earth Core Fire that it had swallowed before had been stored as fuel. Only when it felt that its reserves were sufficient did it begin to change the leaves.
It had been a long time since he had obtained a new Spirit Rune from the Talent Tree. Lu Ye was naturally curious about what kind of Spirit Runes he would obtain next. Therefore, he continued to purchase Earth Core Fire to devour.
Lu Ye bought another hundred or so and when he wanted to buy more, he was surprised to find that the Earth Core Fire was gone!
This caused him to be stunned. It turned out that there was a limit to the amount of Earth Core Fire in the Tianji Treasury.
He had always thought that there was an inexhaustible supply of these items in the Tianji Treasury.
Thinking about it carefully, Xiao Chen realized that he had taken things for granted. The items in the Tianji Treasury did not appear out of thin air. All the treasures had a specific origin.
The most popular rumor was that the items in the Tianji Treasury were closely related to the Tianji Business Alliance.
This was because someone had once sold an item to the Tianji Business Alliance. In the end, they discovered traces of the existence of that item in the Tianji Treasury.
Thinking about it this way, the Earth Core Fire should have been collected by cultivators from some place and then sold to the Tianji Treasury. Lu Ye was not clear on how this item was collected. The people who used it were either refining pills or refining tools. Therefore, the amount of Earth Core Fire purchased would not be too much. Therefore, there had always been a large amount in the Tianji Treasury.
But when it came to him, he would purchase tens to hundreds of Earth Core Fire every time. This time, it was even more ridiculous. He had bought hundreds of Earth Core Fire in one go.
Without the Earth Core Fire, there should be other types of fire.
Lu Ye's mind stirred. He used the Tianji Treasury to search for what he wanted.
A moment later, many items related to fire appeared in his field of vision.
However, these items were all different. Most of them were Pill Fire.
Pill Fire was not a flame used to refine pills. Instead, it was the beast core of a fire-attributed demonic beast. Each beast core was like a burning flame.
The price was also not the same. The lowest was five to six hundred merit points, while the highest was thousands to tens of thousands of merit points.
Lu Ye also saw something called the Extreme Frost-ice Flame. This should be a strange flame. Just by looking at it, it gave people an extremely cold feeling. The flame was also a deep blue color.
This thing was ridiculously expensive. It was worth one hundred and eighty thousand merit points!
He could not help but think of the Phoenix True Fire he had obtained in the Land of Fire.
If this thing was placed in the Tianji Treasury, it would probably be worth a lot. It might even be worth more than the Extreme Frost-ice Flame. This was because Lu Ye had obtained these things for his Talent Tree to devour. However, other people could use these strange flames to cultivate some special secret techniques. Naturally, their value could not be mentioned in the same breath.
After devouring the Phoenix True Fire, there was an additional Fire Phoenix Spirit Mark on his Talent Tree. Lu Ye wanted to know what changes would happen to his Talent Tree if he devoured the Extreme Frost-ice Flame.
However, the price of one hundred and eighty thousand merit points dispelled the thought in his mind.
Even if he had the capital to take out this amount of merit points, he still decided against it after some consideration.
After all, he could not devour the Extreme Frost-ice Flame and obtain a similar spirit mark. There was no such spirit mark in the world. If he did not obtain the corresponding spirit mark, it would not be worth it to devour it.
Lu Ye bought all the flames below one thousand merit points. Only then did he stop.
Out of nearly 300,000 merit points, he had spent 100,000 of them in one go. Money came and went quickly.
This was only the Cloud River Stage. When he reached the True Lake Stage and the Spirit Sea Stage, he would need to spend the most merit points. On the path of cultivation, talent was important. However, without sufficient financial support, it would be difficult to increase one's cultivation rapidly.
The Talent Tree was still devouring the flames. However, Lu Ye was prepared to leave some for future use in case the Talent Tree ran out of fuel.
As he immersed his mind, the leaves on the Talent Tree started to burn as the flames were devoured one by one.
Lu Ye could not help but look forward to it.
Compared to the spirit marks he had learned from books, the spirit marks on the Talent Tree were the ones he could use as he wished. They could often increase his strength in disguise.
He continued to search in the Tianji Treasury.
He wanted to find a Spirit Tool that could store spirit power.
He had used the Fire Phoenix Spirit Mark twice. The two experiences were still fresh in his mind.
It had to be said that sometimes, this spiritual pattern could play a decisive role. However, if one wanted to use this spiritual pattern, one would have to pay a huge price.
Putting aside the aftereffects, as long as the situation was safe, he could slowly recuperate.
However, the amount of spirit power needed to support the activation of this spirit mark was frighteningly large. This problem had to be solved.
Previously, he had used the Spirit Storage Spirit Mark to complete the construction of this spirit mark. However, if he had a Spirit Tool that could store spirit power, it would not be so troublesome.
He could store spirit power in the Spirit Tool in advance and use it when he needed it.
There were all kinds of treasures in the Tianji Treasury. There should be a lot of Spirit Tools that could store spirit power.
As expected, after a while, hundreds of Spirit Tools that could store spirit power appeared in Lu Ye's vision. They were all different in quality and price. Even their shapes were strange.
Lu Ye picked and picked, and finally chose a ring.
This item was convenient to wear and difficult to lose. Moreover, its quality was not bad. It was a supreme-grade Spirit Tool.
In the category of Spirit Tools, the quality mainly depended on how many restrictions were built when the Spirit Tool was forged.
Under nine restrictions, it was a low-grade Spirit Tool.
From nine to eighteen restrictions, it was a medium-grade Spirit Tool.
From eighteen to twenty-seven, it was a high-grade Spirit Tool.
From twenty-seven to thirty-six, it was a supreme-grade Spirit Tool.
Different quality naturally led to different prices. Generally speaking, supreme-grade Spirit Tools could be bought from the Tianji Treasury for 1,500 to 2,000 merit points. The difference was not too big.
From Lu Ye's point of view, a mere one to two thousand merit points was naturally nothing. He could obtain it easily.
However, for most Cloud River Tier cultivators, one to two thousand merit points was already a lot, especially when every cultivator had more than one Spirit Tool.
As one's cultivation level continued to increase, Spirit Tools would also need to be replaced. Therefore, cultivators spent a lot of merit points on Spirit Tools.
Of course, one could also use Spirit Stones to buy Spirit Tools from the Tianji Business Alliance. However, the prerequisite was that one had to have enough Spirit Stones. Moreover, if one really wanted to use Spirit Stones to buy Spirit Tools, it would be more expensive.
The Spirit Storage Ring that Lu Ye chose was a little too expensive. It cost a full 4,000 merit points.
Firstly, Spirit Storage Spirit Tools were a special kind of Spirit Tool. They were not weapons that cultivators used to kill others. This kind of Spirit Tool was more expensive than ordinary Spirit Tools because there were not many of them.
Secondly, this was the smallest Spirit Storage Spirit Tool. It was the most convenient to carry around, so it was naturally more expensive.
Lu Ye wore the Spirit Storage Ring on his finger. It was very suitable, and it would not affect him when he wielded his saber. Moreover, it had the ability to absorb and store the Spirit Power that drifted around the surface of a cultivator's body. Therefore, even if Lu Ye did not actively inject Spirit Power into it, as long as he wore it for a long time, it would be able to store enough Spirit Power.
When Lu Ye needed to use it, he could directly extract Spirit Power from it. It was much more efficient than using Spirit Pills to recover his body.
He had bought everything that he needed to buy and sold everything that he needed to sell.
Lu Ye checked the battlefield imprint on his body.
On the column of merit points, there were 193,643 merit points.
Now, it was time for the main event.
The reward from the Hunting List of the Hunting Ground!
After returning from the Hunting Ground, Lu Ye had not bothered to deal with this matter. Instead, he had charged into the Spirit Stream Battlefield as soon as he had recovered.
Now, he finally had the time.
When the Hunting Ground had closed, the Tianji Business Alliance had bestowed a golden imprint on the back of Lu Ye's hand. With this imprint, Lu Ye could use any of the Tianji Pillars to connect to the Tianji Treasure Trove and obtain his reward from the Tianji Treasure Trove.
