"Okay, the transaction is completed. We Groundless Sect gave you the First Stage of Alchemy Art Recipes, Second Stage of Alchemy Recipes, First Stage of Weapons Refining Art, First Stage of Formation Art, (Age Tree) Foundation Building Realm Arts in exchange for 50,000 Water Iron Ore per year."
Ye Shulong nodded, and he put away these recipes and techniques in his storage bag.
"Also, we are giving you early stage of Qi Refining ten humanoid puppets for mining, they are specially used for mining, you can use them to mine the water iron ore and when it's done, you have to return this puppets, also make sure to delivery 50,000 water iron ore every year."
"Yes, Senior Lin," Ye Shulong nodded.
"Okay, now you two can go out, so I can set up formation here," Lin Han said.
"Yes," Ye Shulong and Ye Mohan left. Outside, Ye Mohan looked at Ye Shulong and asked, "We have to give them 50,000 water iron ore for ten years? Is it worth it?"
Ye Shulong nodded, "The water iron ore is only temporary wealth, while the recipes we got are things that will make us money forever."
Although the four arts he got were basic and were not special, Ye Shulong believed in his family and that, over the years, they would be able to improve this art and become a true foundation-building family.
Outside of mine, Ye Shulong and Ye Mohan looked at Lin Han, who was taking out spiritual stones and some plates. He set them in four directions of mine and then placed four more plates opposite the first plates. He placed total seventy two plates around the mine and used spirtual stones to connect them together.
Afterward, in the center, he placed a plate and put spiritual stones on the plate; after this, he began to make symbols with his spiritual stones and spread these symbols around the mine. In the end, all things connected together, creating a defensive formation around the mine.
Soon, a vast light curtain suddenly stood up from the yellow lake, covering the entire yellow lake that was thousands of feet wide.
As soon as the light curtain was completed, it disappeared, and then a sound of gold and iron was heard from the bottom of the lake.
After a few breaths, Lin Han emerged from the bottom of the lake with a happy face and came to Ye Shulong and Ye Mohan by the lake.
"Chief Ye, this is the control array for the second-level low-grade water-containing curtain formation. This formation can only be used for defense, but its defensive capabilities are among the top among formations of the same level. Even if it is controlled by a monk in the Qi Refining Realm, as long as the spiritual energy enough, It can block the simultaneous attacks of more than three monks in the Early Stages Of Foundation Building! Ten years later, when you, Ye Clan, have to hand over the water iron ore that needs to be given to the sect, this formation will also be collected by the sect."
"Okay," Ye Shulong nodded. Ye Shulong felt that the formation was amazing, and he felt that it would be great if someone in his family observed the formation to study it.
"Okay then, I'm leaving, and if someone attacks the formation and it gets damaged, then send someone over to Groundless Sect; I will come back to repair it, but yes, it should be done by enemies," Saying Lin Han didn't stay much and left.
Ye Shulong looked at the leaving figure and sighed. He felt envious looking at Lin Han. He shook his head and looked at the controlling plate of formation.
"Second elder, for now, you should hold onto this controlling plate; I will send the fifth elder soon; let her take over this formation and guarding duty," Ye Shulong said.
Since Ye Mingrui was strong and also a First Stage High-Grade Formation Master, she would be perfect here and could also learn more about formation by studying this second-stage formation.
"No problem, clan leader," Ye Mohan nodded, "But send her after a month; that kid, Kong Nolisi, might learn my sword formation technique in the next month; I need to look over him to guide him if needed."
"Kong Nolisi," Ye Shulong's mouth opened wide, and he looked at Ye Mohan.
Ye Mohan looked at Ye Shulong and saw the shocked expression of Ye Shulong. Ye Mohan felt it.
He could feel how shocked Ye Shulong was, after all, he also went through this process as well.
"The technique, I, foundation building realm, with stronger spiritual sense took five years to learn, and that kid only learned it in three to four months," Ye Shulong mumbled.
Ye Mohan nodded helplessly.
"This really made us look like a fool," Ye Shulong laughed, "We spent years trying to understand this, but he understands in just months; really, he has heaven-defying understanding."
"You are right; he became a first-stage mid-grade spiritual farmer three days later after becoming the Fourth Stage of Qi Refining; only cultivation is stopping him from advancing further. Otherwise, he can learn many things."
"You're right. I should pay more attention to Kongnolisi, his understanding is too good, and he can do many things if he is given time; with him and Kongteng, our Ye Family's future is bright," Ye Shulong said, "What it is his cultivation right now?"
"It's Sixth Stage of Qi Refining Realm," Ye Mohan said.
"Very good; at the age of 18, he is already in the Sixth Stage of Qi Refining Realm and the Second Stage of Spiritual Farmer; his talent is no less than Kongteng; the only thing limiting him was his spiritual roots," Ye Shulong sighed as he said.
"Yes," Ye Mohan nodded.
After Ye Shulong left, Ye Mohan called Ye Nolisi and decided that Ye Mohan would supervise Ye Nolisi practicing Infinite Sword Star Formation and guide him until he learned it.
From his experience, he knew that Ye Nolisi would be able to learn it in a month.
