Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 403: Assistance, Profits, and Seizure
"I can marry the daughter of your Luo family, but as for offspring, we are at the level of Lianxu. Do you think it is so easy to get offspring?"

Wei Zhong looked at the head of the Luo family opposite him with his sharp eyes.

"If your Luo family agrees, then agree. Don't always bring up these offensive conditions. If you don't agree, I will naturally look for other families."

There was no intention of giving in in Wei Zhong's words.

Just as Wei Zhong said, he didn't think much of the Luo family.

So what if it has a long tradition? It is useless to have thugs who don't listen to you and instead keep causing trouble for you.

On the contrary, with Wei Zhong's status as a seventh-level alchemist and a seventh-level weapon refiner, it would be easy for him to foster a new family in the Chiyang Palace and use it to swallow up those declining old families.

The Luo family may think that they are irreplaceable, but in fact they are just one of the alternatives that Wei Zhong is trying.

Seeing Wei Zhong's attitude, the Luo family also understood that their long-standing heritage was worthless in the eyes of this young weapon refiner.

"In that case..." Luo Junxian turned around and looked at the elders of the Luo family.

"Let's do this. My Luo family doesn't have any further requests. But we still need to discuss the specific details we just discussed."

The two sides discussed various treaties in detail for several days, and finally signed a spiritual contract under the witness of Yang Jing, the master of Chiyang Palace, and Hou Yanbin, the elder of Tianfen Palace.

From then on, the Luo family became Wei Zhong's thugs, and Wei Zhong was also responsible for bringing the entire Luo family back from decline to prosperity.

Wei Zhong waved his hand and threw out a storage bag.

He then sent several jade slips to the Luo family members:

"Inside is a production line for disposable magic beads. From level one to level five, all five elements, including wind and thunder, can be produced. All the steps of refining can be completed without the intervention of a refiner.

"Working non-stop for twelve hours can greatly increase the output, which is much faster than if the refiner were to refine the weapons on his own initiative..."

After hearing Wei Zhong's introduction, several people probed their spiritual consciousness into the jade slip. When they saw the detailed introduction inside, there was shock in their eyes.

They communicated with each other through voice transmission, and finally Luo Junxian replied:

"I need verification."

"Can!"

Wei Zhong held up the spiritual tea in his hand and watched as the elders of the Luo family all left, leaving only a few maids to pour tea for the three of them.

Hou Yanbin said with a smile:

"Junior brother actually managed to come up with this kind of gadget?"

Wei Zhong shook his head slowly:

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Senior Brother. It's just that the array spirit patterns control various instruments to refine instruments instead of the weapon refiners. It can only refine disposable spirit beads and magic instruments, which are also limited to the first to fifth levels. It can't do anything for the higher sixth and seventh levels. Moreover, the quality and success rate are also lower than that of the weapon refiners..."

Hou Yanbin shook his head slowly:
“That’s not the case, this kind of skill is much better than hiring those refiners of varying levels.

"And the cost of hiring is very high, don't you understand that, Junior Brother?"

Wei Zhong recalled the process of refining the spirit beads production line. It seemed that a lot of spirit stones were spent, and it took a long time.

"In short, with this thing in hand, the Luo family's short-term spiritual stone crisis has ended. With the addition of some sixth-level spiritual beads that you, Wu Se, refine on a daily basis, it is enough to support the Luo family to maintain this foundation..."

Yang Jing has a thorough understanding of the matter.

The Five Elements Immortal Sect is very powerful, and its disciples are countless. It is far from being comparable to ordinary Hedao forces like the Xuanxiao Sect. Even ten Xuanxiao Sects cannot compare to it.

There are many Hedao cultivators and Lianxu cultivators in the upper halls, and there are also many Huashen Yuanying cultivators below Lianxu.

Not only abundant, but also rich.

Under the big tree of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, the disciples are often richer than the disciples of other sects or ordinary cultivators.

They have a higher acceptance of this disposable but powerful magic weapon.

The market within the Immortal Sect far exceeds the Baifeng Spiritual Realm where Wei Zhong had previously stayed, and is the area that the Chen family's influence in the south can cover.

Including the spirit bead business that Yang Bao had done in the Five Elements Immortal Sect before, it was just a small business, like a drop of water dissolving in the ocean and not causing any waves.

But it is different now.

With the Luo family as a tentacle, relying on the clan's refining foundation, it is entirely possible to greatly expand production capacity.

The spiritual beads and magical instruments produced were sold to the Twelve Halls of the Immortal Sect. The huge profits that followed were enough for the Luo family to get out of their current predicament just from the small share promised by Wei Zhong.

The three of them chatted in the house for a while before Luo Junxian returned excitedly with the other elders.

"What Master Wu Se said is all true. Our Luo family will be able to fulfill the spiritual contract in the near future and serve the master at his service..."

Having achieved his goal, Yang Jing bowed to everyone and left.

Hou Yanbin also patted Wei Zhong on the shoulder and told him that if he had any other troubles, he could go to him.

Before leaving, he also warned the troublemakers in the Luo family.

With the endorsement of this senior brother, the entire Luo family did not disobey Wei Zhongzhi's words.

"Gather the spiritual materials, and I will teach you how to refine them..."

"Yes!"

After receiving Wei Zhong's order, the entire Luo family took action.

One group of people took the newly produced spiritual beads and magical instruments to the shops controlled by the clan for promotion, while another group of people began to extract spiritual materials from the clan's treasury and purchase them on the market.

Wei Zhong led several sixth-rank weapon refiners from the Luo family and spent several years in seclusion before they doubled the spirit bead production line.

When they came out of seclusion, the magic tools sold by the Luo family had already gained a good reputation.

This magical spiritual pearl originated from the Five Elements Immortal Sect and has left an influence among many cultivators.

But it is disposable, expensive, and the cost of use is too high.

After all, the materials used to refine this item are not cheap, and coupled with the labor costs of the refiner, it would be better to pool the money together to buy a magic sword or a magic shield of the same level.

The reason why the Luo family made this brand well-known within the Immortal Sect.

It is by relying on the production line provided by Wei Zhong to spread the cost.

Huge output and quick sales and quick revenues form a positive cycle, making the average cost lower and lower.

The magical beads on the market that are made by weapon refiners cannot compare with it at all.

Unless those people only count the refining materials, regardless of their own human value.

With this unique advantage, the Luo family's spiritual pearl magic weapon became famous within the Five Elements Immortal Sect.

The spirit stones earned in a short period of time made other clans jealous.

Especially after hearing that the master of alchemy and weapon refining "Wuse" was involved in such events, he beat his chest and stamped his feet, lamenting endlessly.

It was as if his family had missed a great opportunity.

However, as time went by, the Luo family became extremely respectful to Wei Zhong, vaguely acting like his subordinates, which made all the clans feel disappointed, sighing that nothing is free in this world.

But no matter what the outside world said, the Luo family finally gained a firm foothold in the Five Elements Immortal Sect with the help of Wei Zhong.

Not only has the sacred land where the family lives been preserved, but a positive cycle has also been achieved within the ethnic group.

The treatment of the Luo family members has been improved again, and the increase in resources has led to the emergence of a group of new young talents.

At Liuyun Residence, Wei Zhong watched Luo Muxue packing up the cave, and thought to himself:

"The Luo family really made the right move."

It has been more than two hundred years since Wei Zhong took over the Luo family, and the other party's foundation is indeed extremely deep.

Wei Zhong was dazzled by the various spiritual materials stored by the Luo family martyrs in the early years.

Wei Zhong even found the red gold sand that he had been searching for for many years, which was level 7 and weighed a full three kilograms. In addition, there were also various level 7 spiritual materials.

The Luo family was on the verge of decline, but they did not sell it. Instead, they tried to wait until a new seventh-level weapon refiner appeared in the family and led the family to take off again.

Unfortunately, this vision is ultimately illusory. Even during the two hundred years that Wei Zhong has assisted, no one with such talent has appeared within the Luo family.

Today, it is just a wealthy sixth-level family.

This scene actually benefited Wei Zhong.

The profits from the Lingzhu magic weapon business are enormous, and even after Wei Zhong and the Luo family share the profits, it is still a considerable sum.

Wei Zhong used these spirit stones to purchase various spiritual materials from the Luo family treasury, filling his storage bag in a short time.

Most of the raw materials for refining many magical weapons have been replenished.

Just by taking over the Luo family, Wei Zhong could gain such benefits that he even wanted to extend his hand to his clan.

But then I thought of the long heritage of the Luo family, and I was afraid that there would be few people in the entire Five Elements Immortal Sect who could compare with it, so I just gave up.

"My husband, everything is ready!"

Luo Muxue walked up to Wei Zhong, and Wei Zhong nodded slowly.

In fact, Wei Zhong personally collected all the important things inside the cave, and the rest were just some miscellaneous items.

However, Luo Muxue took this very seriously and cleaned up the entire cave thoroughly.

The two of them flew into the sky together. Wei Zhong tilted his head to look at the woman beside him:
"Xue'er, do you blame me for not giving you a name?"

Over the past two hundred years, Wei Zhong has been busy. In addition to helping the Luo family refine weapons, he also has to practice himself. At the same time, he has to escape to the demon world from time to time to check on the breeding progress of the dragon cubs and whether there are any problems with the Wind Hunting Spirit Land...

It can be said that he is extremely busy.

As for Luo Muxue, she was not even married according to the Luo family's original requirements, let alone the so-called status of wife or concubine.

Wei Zhong originally thought that the Luo family would voice opposition, but surprisingly, there was no movement at all. He didn't know whether it was because the profits from the Lingzhu business were too staggering that made them dare not be rude to Wei Zhong and make suggestions.

Luo Muxue shook her head:

“No, I am very satisfied to be able to maintain the current situation. Status is something that is for outsiders to see.

"Although we are not married, how is the way my husband treats me different from a real wife or concubine..."

His eyes are bright and his words are honest.

Wei Zhong couldn't help but nodded slowly.

This girl was exactly as Wei Zhong had seen her, knowledgeable and intelligent.

For more than two hundred years, he has handled many internal and external affairs for Wei Zhong and shared Wei Zhong's pressure.

The other party also enjoyed it.

He felt that he was no longer as idle as before. No matter how hard he tried, the plight of the clan had not changed, and his own practice was also bumpy due to limited resources.

However, nowadays, all these have changed, and the current situation is so good that it makes people feel infinitely satisfied.

"Husband, is this our new cave ahead?"

He pointed to a magnificent building in the clouds and asked in surprise.

Wei Zhong nodded.

After two hundred years, Wei Zhong finally waited for a vacancy in the seventh-level cave residence and got the opportunity to move in.

"Purple Sky Court"

A gilded plaque is hung on the pavilion, with clouds and mist floating around it, giving it a fairy-like atmosphere.

Wei Zhong looked around and found that the scope of this seventh-level cave was much larger than the previous sixth-level Liuyunju.

Once you step inside, you'll find that the various alchemy rooms, weapon refining rooms, spiritual medicine gardens, training rooms, etc. are all enlarged.

The most important thing is the spiritual energy in the cave.

The seventh-level cave residence naturally has a seventh-level spiritual vein below it. Although it is a seventh-level lower-grade spiritual land, the rich spiritual energy has almost condensed into droplets.

As Wei Zhong breathed, the internal energy techniques in his body started to operate automatically.

By practicing in this seventh-level spiritual land, your cultivation level can be improved even faster.

Turning to look at Luo Muxue, her face was slightly red, as if she was a little intoxicated by being in this place with abundant spiritual energy.

Wei Zhong let him rest for a while, and then took the initiative to arrange the layout of the cave.

After the move was completed, Wei Zhong was about to celebrate when he heard a movement from the Time Record and a true seal was vibrating continuously.

Wei Zhong quickly explained to Luo Muxue that he was going to go into seclusion immediately, and then, in her resentful eyes, he closed the door of the training room.

In the demon world, Wei Zhong escaped from the space channel and walked outside the cave, which was a wind-hunting spiritual land that was not much different from the previous one.

Luo Jia sensed Wei Zhong's presence and came forward.

"Owner!"

He bowed, but Wei Zhong ignored him.

He just frowned, sensing the direction of his own true seal.

After a while, he muttered:
"I know that there is no such thing as free benefit in this world."

The trembling true seal represents the unborn dragon cub.

The opponent was still in Liefeng's belly, but he had already encountered a life-and-death crisis.

"Possessing someone else's body? How dare this old dragon even think about it."

The other party had been preparing for hundreds of years before he was ready to take over the dragon cub at this moment. His preparations were extremely thorough.

If Wei Zhong had not used the true seal to control the dragon cub, perhaps he could have succeeded.

"pity……"

Wei Zhong raised his head and looked at Luo Jia:

"The spiritual land is under martial law, protect me!"

"Yes!"

Although he didn't know why Wei Zhong suddenly said this, Luo Jia knew that he just had to follow the order.

Countless Golden Flame Dragons and Sky-Splitting Dragons rose into the sky, covering the entire Wind Hunting Spiritual Land tightly.

Qingbei and other demon dragons also put down their work and guarded the edge of the spiritual land.

As for Luo Jia, he was guarding outside Wei Zhong's cave, preventing others from rushing into the spiritual land.

Wei Zhong sat cross-legged in the spiritual cave with his eyes closed, his focus shifted to his soul.

Within the sea of ​​consciousness, Wei Zhongyuan opened his eyes.

When he stood up, his height was no different from Wei Zhong's original body.

The soul reached out to grab the "Record of Time", flipped the pages, and came to the page covered with the seal of truth.

"Qingbei, Biyuan, Luojia, Death Shadow... and this unborn little dragon."

Pressing his finger on the shrinking seal, Wei Zhong immediately sensed the latter's environment through the Time Treasure Record.

It was a sealed stone chamber, the room was dim, the ground was covered with array spirit patterns, and the color of blood red filled the air...
