Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Chapter 587: Chapter 26 Birth_1

“Void Turtle Head Inkstone?!”

Yao Wudi couldn’t help but open his eyes slightly, staring at the inkstone in his hand.

The ink turtle was lying on the inkstone, biting into the void, with ink flowing slowly within the inkstone.

He could feel that this ink had significant benefits for the Dharma Marks on his body.

However, this wasn’t what he was focused on.

“My good disciple, where did he get twenty thousand merits?!”

Surprise and confusion were clear in Yao Wudi’s eyes.

Twenty thousand merits were more than just twenty thousand Spirit Stones. Even for him, a Nascent Soul Cultivator, it wasn’t easy to obtain.

The reward for defeating the first holy child of the primitive Demonic Sect, a mission that was a life-and-death ordeal for most Nascent Soul Cultivators, was no more than thirty thousand merits.

It shows how precious merits are.

However, Wang Ba somehow got hold of twenty thousand merits and prepared a treasure that could heal his injuries.

“This kid…”

Yao Wudi was both annoyed and relieved.

“With so many merits, he doesn’t know how to save, he just spends randomly.”

“But… it’s indeed a disciple that I value! He was able to earn twenty thousand merits at the Foundation Establishment stage. What would happen when he reaches the Golden Core or Nascent Soul stage!”

Thinking about this, he lovingly held the inkstone in his arms.

The ink turtle on the inkstone was so scared that it pulled its head and limbs into its shell.

Yao Wudi did not mind.

Then he looked at a white porcelain bottle and curiosity drove him to open it.

When he saw what was inside, Yao Wudi’s eyes widened:

“This is… Oh fuck! How does my good disciple have this?!”

…

Diwu Hall.

In a side room, the Earth Hall Deputy Master, Song Dongyang, was immersed in a pile of paperwork covering his desk.

His peak Nascent Soul realm enabled him to multitask when dealing with the sect’s miscellaneous affairs. As a result, several files were laid out in front of him at the same time.

As soon as he finished replying to one, the documents and files were automatically arranged under his control, recurring in cycles. @@novelbin@@

And the documents on the desk were disappearing rapidly.

Finally, the last file on the table was also tossed aside by him.

Looking at the clean table in front of him, even with his superior cultivation, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

“Finally done!”

So tired, really tired.

Lately, due to the Wanxiang Sect mobilizing a large-scale military operation for the first time in recent years, everyone has been extremely busy.

Among them, the Five Elements Division and the Diwu Hall, which governs the Five Elements Division, are the busiest.

Mortals say, “Before the troops move, the grains and straw go first.”

The same applies to cultivators.

Instead of preparing grain, however, they provide cultivators with all the materials needed for cultivation and items like elixirs, Magic Tools, and talismans.

Especially since the West Sea Country has been repeatedly raided by cultivators from other continents, it has become barren. Naturally, more safeguards are needed for cultivators going there.

This pressure naturally fell on Diwu Hall.

As the Deputy Hall Master of Diwu Hall, who was essentially in charge of numerous miscellaneous affairs, although he didn’t need to do everything personally, he had the final say in decisions. Song Dongyang had naturally been very busy.

He had also experienced a deep sense of exhaustion that he hadn’t had since reaching the Nascent Soul stage.

Fortunately, the busy period had already prepared enough for the early stage of this campaign, so there was no need to rush afterwards.

However, before he could properly enjoy this rare respite, a Nascent Soul Enforcer hurriedly walked in from outside the hall.

“Master Song, this is the latest proposal from the Five Elements Division, and there are also things filtered out from the Myriad Library on Shaoyang Mountain for you to review…”

As he said this, he brought out a pile of documents from his Storage Treasure, covering the table that had just been cleared a moment ago.

Looking at the documents that almost blocked his sight, Song Dongyang felt a little bad.

He couldn’t help but look at the Nascent Soul Enforcer: “Can’t… can’t you send some to Palace Master Zhao?”

Diwu Hall has more than one Deputy Hall Master. Apart from him, there are several others. However, most of them are part-time jobs, just for a little extra salary.

After all, the salary of a Hall Master level is not so shabby compared to Deacons and Enforcers.

Palace Master Zhao, on the other hand, was another person in charge of Diwu Hall, aside from him.

“Palace Master Zhao’s place is already full.”

The Nascent Soul Enforcer replied helplessly.

Hearing this, Song Dongyang could only sigh powerlessly.

He reluctantly returned to the desk and casually opened a document.

It was signed by ‘Xia Changhe’, the Minister of the Pill-refining Department of the Fire Division.

“Request to open the ‘Qibao Medicinal Garden’ on Taiyin Mountain…”

Song Dongyang frowned, directly brushed his mana over the document and left behind a bright red cross.

“This old Xia is really confused. The ‘Qibao Medicinal Garden’ is a foundation of the sect, it can’t be opened randomly.”

He couldn’t help but glare at the Nascent Soul Enforcer next to him: “Old Li, don’t you guys even look at these proposals? What a waste of time!”

The Nascent Soul Enforcer was also aggrieved: “I’m just an Enforcer. I don’t have the authority to withhold the proposal of the Minister of the Pill-refining Department. Moreover, what if there is some important matter…”

“Alright, alright.”

Song Dongyang waved his hand impatiently.

He continued to flip through the documents.

Sometimes he frowned, sometimes he was deep in thought, sometimes he couldn’t hide his joy, and sometimes he even exclaimed: “This is a good method, just do it this way!”

Soon, he came across another document.

“It’s a proposal by Qi Yan, the Minister of the Beast Department.”

Song Dongyang was slightly confused.

“He rarely proposes anything, let me see… He suggests that the Class II top grade Spirit Beast, ‘Azure Spirit Turtle’, be listed as a key breeding species by the Beast Department to supply to the sect’s disciples as guardian Spirit Beasts?”
