Xiuxian: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 478 OEM
"Jiuyi...Xuanyuan?"

Looking at the words "limited-time mission", Yuzhao was not surprised at all. Instead, he looked as if he had expected it.

Wandao Academy released so many high-level spiritual objects, magical powers, and even top-grade immortal artifacts. It can't be that they suddenly had a kind heart and wanted to benefit the world, right?
The world is bustling with people, all seeking profit!

Even if Wandao Academy is fully focused on dealing with the demonic calamity, it is impossible to benefit others for no reason.

There must be a purpose behind this action!
What do you want?
The answer is already in front of us.

Yuzhao raised his hand and clicked on the task interface, then saw...

Limited time mission——Jiuyi Xuanyuan!
Mission content: Starting today, cultivators all over the world can use the sword-refining method to refine the Jiuyi Xuanyuan Sword required by Wandao Academy. Wandao Academy will purchase it with a large sum of money. The magic weapon-level Xuanyuan Sword can be exchanged for 500,000 credits, and the spiritual treasure-level Jiuyi Xuanyuan Sword can be exchanged for 5 million credits.

(Jiuyi Xuanyuan, forged by heaven and earth, requires the essence of the earth, black iron and refined gold as the embryo of the sword, and then combined with the method of thunder, infused with the essence of heaven and earth, and nurtured day and night to achieve success. The difficulty of refining is quite high, and it is not recommended for refiners below the third level to try)

"..."

Looking at the task content, then clicking on the detailed sword-refining method, and looking at the strict refining requirements of the Jiuyi Xuanyuan Sword, Yuzhao was silent for a long time.

Sure enough, there is no such thing as pie falling from the sky in this world. Even the Wandao Academy is unlikely to hand over such rare treasures to others. This limited-time mission is clearly aimed at those monks in the blessed land.

A bystander sees more clearly. Yuzhao knows that the main difficulty of Wandao Academy now is to complete the reorganization of the federation, suppress the evil sects that are causing chaos in various places, and establish order for Wandao Academy.

This problem is not difficult to solve. Although there are frequent incidents in various places and evil sects are constantly causing chaos, they are just minor problems and cannot pose any substantial threat to the Wandao Academy.

Unless someone can rival those three, this situation will be suppressed sooner or later, and the rule of the academy is an irreversible outcome.

Therefore, the Wandao Academy does not need to offer a large reward to lure those monks from the blessed land to fight against the rebellious evil god sect.

In fact, even if there was no bounty from the Wandao Academy, those monks in the blessed land would take the initiative to fight demons and defend the way of righteousness based on their own needs and gain merits.

Therefore, this limited-time mission is not aimed at those evil god sects, but the high-level monks of the Fudi Ancient Sect.

Wandao Academy wants to use them to refine the Jiuyi Xuanyuan Sword.

That’s right, take advantage!
Make use of their human resources, and even more so their material resources!
Yu Zhao saw that the refining requirements for the Jiuyi Xuanyuan Sword were extremely stringent. Not only did it have to use the essence of the earth, such as black iron and gold, as the embryo, but it also required a master of refining at the third level or above, who had to rely on his own superb refining skills, use the sword-refining method, work hard day and night, to refine it.

How much effort and time will this take?
How much manpower and material resources will be required?
Those weapon refiners with average skills and mediocre talents must at least experience several failures and learn from experience before they can refine a qualified Jiuyi Xuanyuan Sword.

The human costs, material costs, investment and losses from failure must all be borne by the weapon refiner himself.

Wandao Academy only purchases finished products and is not responsible for teaching. It also does not bear the material costs of sword-making and the losses caused by failure, thus completely transferring the risks.

If this isn’t exploitation, what is?
The current Wandao Academy is still in its infancy. Although it has trained many weapon refiners, they can only refine magical weapons and spiritual weapons. They have no ability to refine magical treasures and spiritual treasures. Even if they can, they will have to bear a huge risk of failure. After calculating all the costs, it is far better to hand it over to outsiders for "OEM production!"

Therefore, they offered a huge reward, asking those ancient sects in the blessed land to contribute manpower and their own assets to produce the sword for them, so that they could earn credits and exchange them for high-level spiritual objects, magical powers, and precious immortal artifacts on the list.

Generally speaking, exchanging high-level spiritual objects or top-grade immortal artifacts for magical treasures is an extremely disadvantageous thing. After all, it is exchanging high-level for low-level, and even if there is a compensation in quantity, losses are inevitable.

But the current situation is obviously not ordinary. The Jiuyi Xuanyuan Sword is not an ordinary magic weapon or spiritual treasure. It is extremely difficult to refine. Considering the costs of time and energy, there is also the risk of failure and loss. After the exchange, it is the Wandao Academy that makes a profit, and even a huge profit.

After calculating this account, will those ancient sects in blessed places still "OEM" for Wandao Academy?

of course!
Although most people in the world are not stupid, those monks in the blessed land are even more shrewd. They can tell who loses and who gains after doing the math, but this does not stop them from jumping into this fire pit.

There is no way, this opportunity is rare!
Transactions among cultivators are basically equal exchanges, spiritual treasures for spiritual treasures, immortal tools for immortal tools, items of the same level for items of the same level, and it is rare for high-level items to be exchanged for low-level items, or for the minority to be exchanged for the majority.

This is because the value of high-level spiritual objects is far beyond that of low-level spiritual objects. For example, a top-grade immortal weapon may cost 100 million spiritual stones in the market, but it is basically impossible for you to exchange 100 million spiritual stones for a top-grade immortal weapon.

This involves a question of "practicality" and "scarcity". There are many ways to obtain spiritual stones, but in most cases, top-grade immortal artifacts are rare treasures that can only be encountered by chance.

It is priceless and hard to exchange!
But now, credit redemption has a clear price tag.

Even though those top-grade immortal weapons were treasures from the Demonic Cave Heaven, the Ancient Blessed Land Sect did not dare to take them. But in addition to the immortal weapons, there were also many high-level spiritual objects and various magical powers.

These were rare treasures that could only be encountered once in a while, and could be exchanged for relatively common magic weapons and spiritual treasures, even if they were at a disadvantage. The various blessed lands and ancient sects could accept them, and were even very happy to do so.

What's more, this business does not necessarily mean a loss. Although the initial investment is higher, the more you refine, the more experience you gain, and practice makes perfect. The probability of failure and the cost of sword refining will drop sharply, and you will eventually turn losses into profits.

In addition, these ancient sects in blessed lands have another major advantage, and that is the realm of cultivation. Most of the ancestors of those blessed lands are in the Return to Void stage, and a few are in the Fusion stage, with the sixth and seventh stages of cultivation. As long as they are willing to work hard, refining third and fourth stage magical weapons and spiritual treasures is easy, if not easy at all.

To put it bluntly, the Wandao Academy wants to use this huge carrot to lure the returning ancestors from various blessed lands, the combined powerful beings, to produce for them, so as to achieve their goal.

What purpose?
What is their purpose in refining the Nine-Yi Xuan-Yuan Sword?
Don't even mention making standard equipment for the academy's disciples.

Today, there are tens of millions of disciples in the Wandao Academy, and each of them is equipped with a magical weapon or even the Nine-Instrument Xuanyuan Sword of spiritual treasure level. Not to mention the Dongtian Immortal Gate, even some of the Earthly Immortal Realms do not have the capital to be so extravagant.

Therefore, the purpose of refining the Nine Instruments Xuanyuan Sword in large quantities...

Yuzhao couldn’t explain it, but she recalled the thrilling Shenwu live broadcast thirty years ago.

A martial arts fanatic versus the Vajra Master!
The divine armor versus the six-foot-tall golden body!
Relying on the magical armor formed by millions of magic weapons, the martial madman used his Nascent Soul body to fight against the powerful demon Sattva who was more powerful than his combined body, and finally pierced the golden body with his spear, sending the Vajra Demon Monk into reincarnation.

Tens of millions of magic weapons, combined into a battle armor, can help that martial arts fanatic cross the three realms and complete the feat of the Nascent Soul's counterattack and fusion. Then this magic weapon or even the spiritual treasure-level Nine Instruments Xuanyuan Sword...

That's their purpose!

They are already planning and laying out their plans for the future.

This Jiuyi Xuanyuan Sword, if nothing unexpected happens, will be their powerful weapon against the Dongtian Immortal Sect.

With the ability of "Li Xuanyuan" and the Nine-Instrument Xuanyuan Sword, who can match him?

Mahayana?

Overcoming the tribulation?

Or a real fairy?

Yuzhao couldn't say it, and that was why she was so silent.

If they really have the power to rival the true immortals, then when they descend upon the major caves and enter the world, I am afraid they will cause a bloody storm and the immortals will die.

But... "What does that have to do with me?"

On the Yunyu Mountain, in the Hehuan Cave, Yao Meir held the Yin-Yang Strategy in her hand, looking at the various magical powers on the exchange list. The mountains were undulating, the waves were surging, and the edges of her pink and tender red lips were even more crystal clear.

"The Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Techniques - Reversing Yin and Yang?"

"Can it cause the heaven and earth to lose order, the sun and the moon to become abnormal, reverse yin and yang, and turn the universe upside down?"

"This kind of magical power and this kind of method are tailor-made for our Hehuan Sect!"

"I must get it, I must get it!"

Looking at the introduction of the method of reversing yin and yang, Yao Mei'er's breathing became heavier: "As long as I can cultivate this magical power, I will be able to prove the truth of immortality with the principles of yin and yang. Then, then...!"

Seeing her expression like this, the weapon spirit was silent for a while, and finally had to remind her: "My lady, can you refine weapons?"

"This one……"

Yao Mei'er suddenly woke up from this, and she looked embarrassed for a moment, but she quickly calmed down: "It's just refining a weapon, it's nothing. With my talent, it's not something that can be easily accomplished. If it doesn't work, I will use spiritual objects to smash it. I don't believe that I can't knock out a master of refining weapons."

Yin Yang Ce was speechless for a while: "If the sect master knew that you abused the sect's foundation like this..."

“What is abuse?”

Yao Mei'er glared at it and said, "I am a disciple of the sect. My magical powers are the sect's magical powers. Similarly, the sect's foundation is my foundation. I am fighting for a supreme way for the sect. How can it be said that I am abusing it? If you keep talking nonsense, I will sue you for defamation!"

"All right!"

Yin Yang Ce was helpless after hearing this: "But my young master, didn't you say you wanted to sign up to be a teacher at the Wan Dao Academy? Which of these two things is more important?"

"Of course we should do both at the same time!"

Yao Mei'er puffed out her chest and said, "With my talent, isn't it easy for me to hold two positions at the same time?"

"Ok."

Yin Yang Ce sighed, "But I suggest that you exchange this Yin and Yang Reversal Technique later. After all, there is no limit to the number of techniques, and you can exchange it at any time. But those rare treasures are different. Everyone will be interested in them, so you must get them before others."

"right!"

Yao Meier also came to her senses: "Right now, only the Eastern Kingdom's blessed land has been unlocked. After a while, all the blessed lands in the world will be opened, and people from other sects will also enter the world one after another. The competition will probably become more intense. This Wandao Academy is really sinister. It throws out a piece of meat bone and makes people all over the world fight to the death."

"My lord, be careful with your words!"

"Be careful what you say, I'm not like Bei Ming Long Yuan and Xuan Tian Jian Zong... That's right!"

Yao Mei'er was halfway through her words when she suddenly revealed a wicked smile. She looked at the exchange list and said jokingly, "What do you think the pretty boy from Xuantian Sword Sect has on his face now?"

"This one……"

……

"How can this not make sense? How can it not make sense!"

In another cave, Shen Xiao, who was pale, was holding a tablet computer. He was already furious and started to curse: "Li Xuanyuan, you are going too far, too far!"

"Demon Slaying Sword: An eighth-grade immortal weapon, one of the Nine Mysterious Heavenly Swords, with the power to slay demons and refine immortals. It cannot be fully exchanged, but can be temporarily rented. Comprehending the mysterious artistic conception of this sword will be of great benefit to the practice of swordsmanship. Exchange price: 100 million credits/ten years!"

Looking at his own natal magic weapon on the exchange list, Shenxiao's face turned pale, and his blood flushed. He was filled with rage and resentment.

This move was clearly aimed at him!
One hundred million credits, leased for ten years?
Why don't you go and grab it?

Although a top-grade immortal weapon does have such value, this top-grade immortal weapon belongs to him!

You're renting me my magic weapon?
How can a person be so shameless!

Shenxiao clenched his teeth and his eyes were bloodshot, but he finally slowed down and opened the ring to check the black iron and gold inside.

People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads!
The Demon-Slaying Immortal Sword is his natal immortal weapon. It is not only used in battles, but also can assist in spiritual practice. As a Xuantian Sword Master, he cannot do without this sword before he has achieved his goal.

Therefore, even if he was blackmailed like this, he could only grit his teeth and accept it, take out the foundation given to him by Xuantian Sword Sect, and prepare to devote himself to this "OEM production" work, earning credits in exchange for his own demon-slaying and immortal-refining sword.

The magic weapon-level Xuanyuan Sword can be exchanged for 500,000 credits, and the spiritual treasure-level Jiuyi Xuanyuan Sword can be exchanged for 5 million credits.

In other words, as long as he refines two hundred pieces of Xuanyuan magic treasures, or twenty pieces of Xuanyuan spiritual treasures, he can exchange for the ten-year use rights of the sword for slaying demons and refining immortals.

Although the Xuantian Sword Sect was good at sword refining, two hundred magic weapons and twenty spiritual treasures were still a huge challenge for him, whose cultivation level was only at the Divine Transformation stage.

More importantly, every sword he refines will fall into that person's hands and become a powerful weapon in the future to fight against the major caves, including his Xuantian Sword Sect.

This is aiding the enemy!
But this enemy cannot be without resources!

That was his natal magic weapon. It was shameful enough that it fell into the hands of one person, and it must not be allowed to be touched by anyone else.

"Jiuyi Xuanyuan, Jiuyi Xuanyuan!"

Shenxiao gritted his teeth, clicked on the article on sword-making, and began the most painful and torturous practice of his life.

But soon...

"wrong!"

"This sword..."

Shen Xiao's eyes narrowed as he stared at the screen, looking at the sword-refining method: "How could this sword-refining method be just a spiritual treasure?"

"Or... the spiritual treasure is just a sword embryo?"

"Jiuyi Xuanyuan, what on earth is it?"
