With the combination of the Fire Spiritual Rock and the exploding spiritual tattoo, the power of the explosion was not weak. Even a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator could withstand it once, but he would not be able to withstand it if it happened too many times. As for a True Lake Realm spiritual tattooist, needless to say, one explosion was enough to injure him. After three to five explosions, even if he did not die, he would be bedridden.
"That's why I'm curious. How did you make so many exploding Fire Spiritual Rocks?" Qian Wudang looked at Lu Ye.
"My success rate in constructing spirit tattoos is higher?"
Lu Ye couldn't tell Qian Wudang that it was impossible for him to fail. Even if he said so, Qian Wudang wouldn't believe him.
A Spiritual Tattooist building spiritual tattoos was the same as an Alchemist making elixirs. No matter how skilled a Spiritual Tattooist was, there was still a possibility of failure.
Qian Wudang couldn't help laughing. "A Spirit Sea Realm spiritual tattooist has an eighty percent success rate of constructing explosive tattoos in a Fire Spiritual Stone. How high can you be? However, once the construction fails, it will inevitably lead to terrible consequences. I want to know how you were able to protect yourself from the explosion of the spirit stone and escape unscathed. "This was the reason why he had called Lu Ye over this time.
If this problem could be solved, Haotian Alliance would have one more way to deal with their enemies. This was of great strategic value.
Lu Ye was in a dilemma. Qian Wudang thought he had a way to avoid the explosion of the Fire Spiritual Rock, but that was not the case at all.
How could he explain this?
After thinking for a while, Lu Ye could only say, "I have my own unique way."
"You can't tell me?" Qian Wudang looked at him with a faint smile. "Don't worry. I won't ask you for nothing. If you can share your way and solve this problem for the Prefecture Guards, you will be rewarded handsomely, including but not limited to military exploits!"
Lu Ye felt a headache coming. He didn't know how to respond. Finally, he said helplessly, "Sir, it's not that I want to hide it from you. It's just that no one else can use my way. Even if I share it, it's useless … Sir, you don't believe me. Alright, I'll ask Tianji to bear witness. If my way can be used by others, please punish me!"
After a moment of silence, Lu Ye said again, "Sir, you should believe me now."
In the Nine Regions, the Heavenly Secret Oath could sometimes help cultivators resolve some doubts and unnecessary disputes. Under the witness of the Heavenly Secret, no one could lie.
Qian Wudang didn't expect Lu Ye to be so straightforward. It seemed that Lu Ye didn't lie to him. Qian Wudang was the only one who could use his methods, so there was no point in sharing it with others.
He sighed and couldn't help but reveal a disappointed expression. "If that's the case, then it's fine. You may leave."
"Yes." Lu Ye heaved a sigh of relief and turned to leave.
But when he reached the door, he suddenly turned back.
"Anything else?" Qian Wudang looked at him in confusion.
Lu Ye said, "Sir, if you want Explosive Fire Spirit Rocks, I can help you refine them."
Gan Wudang couldn't help but laugh. "How much can you make by yourself?" If he were to do it alone, the production would be limited, and it would lose its value.
"Sir, how much do you think we can refine every day to satisfy our needs?" Lu Ye asked instead of answering.
Qian Wudang looked at Lu Ye and realized that the latter was seriously discussing this issue with him. Qian Wudang said, "Of course, the more the better. But if you were the only one making them, would you be able to produce a thousand pieces a day?"
He thought Qian Wudang was going to ask for a lot. It was only a thousand pieces. If he wanted to refine them, it would be a simple matter. A thousand Explosive Fire Spirit Rocks would take less than an hour.
Qian Wudang was a Minister. How could his appetite be so small?
But Lu Ye also knew that it was best to stop before going too far. Qian Wudang didn't think he could refine a thousand pieces per day. Everyone's energy was limited, and there was a certain amount of risk involved. If he said too much, Qian Wudang might not believe him. Even if Qian Wudang did believe him, Qian Wudang would be suspicious.
"It should be possible."
Qian Wudang was shocked. "Really?"
If he could refine a thousand pieces per day, then he could make thirty thousand pieces per month. It was more than enough to equip a Minister of Law.
"It's related to the future of our province. I'm willing to try my best!" Lu Ye answered firmly.
"Good, good, good." Qian Wudang nodded approvingly as if the Force Province had a successor.
But Lu Ye's next sentence exposed his real purpose. "Sir, it takes a lot of time and effort for me to refine. Shouldn't the Prefecture Guards do something for me?"
Qian Wudang couldn't help but laugh when he heard Lu Ye's blunt words. "Of course!"
Qian Wudang thought for a while and said, "What do you think? The materials will be provided by the Prefecture Guards. Every time you refine a piece of Explosive Fire Spirit Rock, you'll be rewarded with one battle credit!"
Lu Ye turned around and left.
"Two points!" Qian Wudang was speechless. Lu Ye didn't give him any face at all.
Lu Ye didn't stop walking.
One Explosive Fire Spirit Rock was worth two battle credits. A thousand pieces per day would be two thousand battle credits. It wasn't a lot, but it wasn't a small amount either. The main reason was that Lu Ye could refine it in an hour.
In this way, he could earn sixty thousand battle credits in one month.
However, this was not what Lu Ye had expected. Most importantly, it was rare to come across such an opportunity. Naturally, he would try to get as many benefits as he could. Such opportunities were rare.
"Name your price!" Qian Wudang was helpless. Seeing that Lu Ye was about to walk out of the Ear Palace, he hurriedly said.
Lu Ye turned around and raised his hand. He opened his hand and flipped it over.
"You little bastard! How dare you ask for so much!" Qian Wudang was furious. He was the head of the Law Department, in charge of the laws of the Prefecture Guards. His words were like a mountain. Since when did anyone dare to bargain with him?
He glared at Lu Ye and softened his tone. "Kid, you should know that you're a member of the Prefecture Guards. The things you refine can improve the strength of the Prefecture Guards. When the Prefecture Guards get stronger, you can benefit from it."
"Sir, I know that. But if you want the horse to run, you have to feed the horse."
"Although I'm the head of the Law Department, I have to put the Law Department and the Prefecture Guards first. I can't accept your price."
"Raise the price on the spot and return the money as the fall. That's how business works."
"You little bastard!" Qian Wudang gritted his teeth. "Three points. One spiritual stone is three points. You can earn three thousand points a day. That's ninety thousand points a month!"
Lu Ye shook his head. "Milord, let's not talk about the risks involved in refining this item for now. It will take a lot of time and delay my cultivation. I sacrificed my future for the sake of the Prefectural Guard. Milord, you can't let me suffer a loss. I want battle points to buy the golden spirit lot to make up for my lagging cultivation progress. How can a golden spirit lot that costs ninety thousand battle points a month make up for it?"
Qian Wudang thought that it made sense. He sighed. "Five points. That's my limit. Any more and we won't talk."
"Let's make a Tianji Contract!" Lu Ye agreed without hesitation. Five points for an Explosive Fire Spiritual Stone was the price he expected.
"You're so sure that you can complete the task?" Qian Wudang looked at him suspiciously. "You should know that once you make a Tianji Contract, you'll be punished if you can't complete the task."
"That's my business. Sir, just wait and see."
"Since you're so confident, I'll do as you wish!" Qian Wudang waved his hand and a blank Tianji Contract fell down with a golden light. He quickly listed out the terms and conditions for Lu Ye to read. After both of them made sure there were no problems, they both left their marks.
With that, the Tianji Contract was made.
"Sir, there's one more thing I need to tell you," Lu Ye said.
"The Tianji Contract has been made. You can't raise the price."
"Sir, you're underestimating me. What I want to tell you is that there's a loss when making this thing."
"I know that. But the loss rate can't be more than thirty percent."
Lu Ye was overjoyed, but he pretended to be troubled. "I'll try my best!"
Now, he didn't have to worry about the Fire Spiritual Stones he needed for his Talent Tree. The loss rate couldn't be more than thirty percent. In other words, he could pocket thirty percent of the stones.
This wasn't his original intention, but if he had a hundred percent success rate, he wouldn't be able to explain it to others. Seventy percent would be the best.
"Sir, when can we start?" Lu Ye couldn't wait.
He didn't expect that this trip to Vast Sky City would not only provide him with a stable way to earn battle credits, but also Fire Spiritual Stones.
This was a great deal.
"If you think it's okay now, we can start now."
"I'll listen to you, sir."
"Come with me." Qian Wudang led Lu Ye out of the Ear Palace and flew up. He wrapped Lu Ye in his spiritual power and flew in a certain direction.
Soon, they landed in a small courtyard.
"This is the property of the Law Division. Normally, it is used by the injured cultivators of the Law Division to recuperate. You will live here for the time being. I will have someone deliver the Fire Spirit Stones. I will not ask about the process, only the result. In seven days, someone will come to collect them."
Lu Ye nodded. There was no problem with this arrangement.
Qian Wudang soon left, leaving Lu Ye alone. Yiyi could finally come out and take a breather.
The courtyard wasn't big. Lu Ye set up some arrays to guard it.
As soon as he finished, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Ye got up and opened the door. A cultivator he didn't know was standing outside. He handed over a storage bag.
Lu Ye took it and checked it. There were ten thousand Fire Spiritual Stones inside. He nodded. "No problem."
The cultivator didn't say anything. He cupped his fists and left.
Qian Wudang had ordered his men to deliver ten thousand pieces of Fire Spiritual Stones to Lu Ye, and the delivery time was seven days later. Obviously, he had taken thirty percent of the cost into account. Therefore, after seven days, Lu Ye only needed to give Qian Wudang seven thousand pieces of Fire Spiritual Stones to complete the mission. By then, Lu Ye would have thirty-five thousand battle achievements.
This didn't include the remaining three thousand Fire Spiritual Stones.
Lu Ye walked into the room and set up another array.
