Chapter 108: New Cultivation System (1)
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
Not just Chen Daoxuan.
When the other cultivators of the Dao generation saw Chen Daochu wearing such a handsome and powerful natal spiritual armor, their small faces all revealed envious expressions.
That little expression almost said,”I want it too!”
Seeing everyone’s expressions, Chen Daoxuan felt amused and couldn’t help but secretly calculate in his heart.
Natal spiritual armor was different from flying swords.
Not only was it more difficult to refine, but most importantly, the cost was also much higher than a flying sword.
Armors were more expensive than swords. It seemed that even in the cultivation world, this principle was the same.
Refining a high-grade Level One flying sword.
The cost of production usually did not exceed two to three hundred spirit stones, but the price was as high as five hundred spirit stones.
Therefore, he had no choice.
When a flying sword reached first-tier superior-grade, its profits would skyrocket. It would no longer be like a first-tier inferior-grade or a first-tier intermediate-grade flying sword, which might even incur losses.
As long as a Weapon Refinement Master had the ability to refine a superior-grade Tier 1 flying sword, they would basically earn a lot.
It was just a matter of how much they earned based on the success rate of the Armament Master.
As for defensive magic tools…
Generally, there were very few people who sold them in the magical equipment market.
Even in the high-end magical equipment markets run by the Wu and Zhou Clans, defensive magical equipment rarely appeared.
Firstly, this kind of magic tool consumed a lot of materials, the cost of refining was high, and the price was even more exaggerated. Very few cultivators could afford it.
Moreover, the big clans did not want this kind of spirit armor type defensive magic tool to be overused.
In fact, from Chen Daoxuan’s experiments on ling armor defense, one could see the huge difference in strength between qi layer cultivators wearing and not wearing armor.
There were also two cultivators.
One was wearing ling armor, while the other was not. Unless the difference in their original strength was as exaggerated as Chen Daoxuan and an ordinary late-stage Qi Refinement cultivator.
Otherwise, a cultivator wearing ling armor would have a crushing advantage over an armorless cultivator.
The reason for this was because…
This was because cultivators wearing ling armor did not need to pay attention to the enemy’s attacks at all. They could withstand the enemy’s attacks and directly attack the other party.
Who could withstand such a shameless playstyle?
It was just like how in ancient times, armored soldiers and unarmored soldiers were two completely different concepts.
Although the cultivation world was influenced by other factors, it basically followed this law.
Among cultivators of the same level, cultivators with defensive ling armor would often easily win against cultivators without defensive magic tools.
Chen Daoxuan had refined this Instance Dungeon Life Spirit Armor for Chen Daochu.
Excluding the labor cost of a second grade Armament Master like him, just the materials consumption alone, he had used up about 200 catties of various first grade spirit ores and 10 catties of second grade Tenth Water Pure Gold.
Level 1 spirit ores were sold at an average of 3 spirit stones per 500 grams, which was 600 spirit stones.
With the addition of 10 catties of Tenth Water Pure Gold, the total cost was about 2100 spirit stones.
This was only the cost. If he sold it to the outside world, how many spirit stones would it be worth?
This price had far exceeded the limits of what a Qi Condensation cultivator could afford.
It was indeed not a big problem for the Chen family to give each cultivator of the Dao generation a set of ling armor.
However, when the cultivators of the Fu generation grew up and followed this standard, even with the wealth of the Chen family, they would be dragged down by the terrifying consumption of ling armor.
Of course.
Chen Daoxuan could also forge ling armor according to the simplest method in the jade slip.
In that case, he could save 1500 spiritual stones worth of Tenth Water Pure Gold, and his production cost would be reduced by more than half.
However, this way, the defensive power of the natal spiritual armor would also be greatly weakened.
This made it difficult for Chen Daoxuan to choose.
From the depths of his heart.
He didn’t really want to give the Chen family cultivators a weakened version of ling armor.
In his opinion, it was either not to do it, or to do the best.
It would save him the trouble of adding all kinds of high-grade materials and expelling the low-grade materials from the spirit armor when he upgraded his spirit armor in the future.
However, among the cultivators of the Dao generation, other than Chen Daolan and Chen Daochu, the utilization rate of the other cultivators was too low.
It was so low that even Chen Daoxuan felt somewhat dissatisfied.
The cultivators of the Dao generation had been cultivating for almost two years.
Chen Daolan and Chen Daochu were already at the fifth level of the Aura Refining realm and were about to enter the sixth level.
As for the other cultivators of the Dao generation, other than Chen Daochuan, who had reached the fourth qi layer, the best one was only at the third qi layer.
It looked like…
It seemed that he had advanced from the first qi layer to the third qi layer in just two years.
However, one had to know that the Chen family had invested all kinds of resources for the cultivators of the Dao generation. Even the inner sect disciples of the Qianyuan Sword Sect had to call them rich when they saw it.
As long as the pill poison didn’t affect the body, he would take all the pills he could get. Even a Level One Water Spirit Pearl was too low a level to be a treasure that could aid in cultivation. He could even directly use a Level Two Water Spirit Pearl to cultivate.
In addition, there was an endless supply of spiritual rice. As long as the cultivators of the Dao generation could eat it, the Chen family would supply them no matter how much they ate.
Unless it was some rare cultivation resources that the Chen family could not buy from Guang ‘an Prefecture with spirit stones.
In terms of the supply of basic cultivation resources, the Chen family had really done their best.
That was it.
In two years, they had only broken through to the second or third qi layer from the first qi layer.
How could Chen Daoxuan be satisfied?
Therefore, he had no choice.
After seeing the expectant eyes of the cultivators of the Dao generation.
Chen Daoxuan did not respond immediately.
Because he already had a vague plan to reform the family system in his heart.
Just like in the past, regardless of their aptitude, cultivation progress, or refining level, the Chen family would provide them with the best resources.
Chen Daoxuan didn’t plan to do it again.
This method was like eating from a big pot, which greatly hurt the enthusiasm of the Chen family cultivators.
He wanted to change the training system.
This kind of cultivation system was slightly different from the cultivation system of the big families where the quality of the spirit root determined the supply of resources.
However, it was still relatively close.
Chen Daoxuan was prepared to propose this training system at the next clan meeting.
As for the other cultivators of the Dao generation, their eyes were filled with anticipation.
Chen Daoxuan pretended not to see it.
For the long-term development of the family, he had to be ruthless enough.
Since they were going to set the rules, they had to treat everyone equally.
Otherwise, as time passed, the rules would become useless.
Clan cultivators were more vigilant than sect cultivators.
This was because the cultivators of the clan were often bound by blood, and it was easier for them to bend the law for personal gain.
This kind of favoritism seemed to be taking care of the kinship of the same clan, but in fact, it was extremely harmful to the clan itself.
It could even completely destroy a family.
This point.
Chen Daoxuan had to be vigilant.
There were only eleven cultivators in the Chen family now. It seemed that everything was easy to deal with.
However, there were some calamities that were buried when the family was young.
Chen Daoxuan knew that small clans relied on unity, while big clans relied on the system.
If the Chen family wanted to develop into a family like the Zhou family, or even a family that was bigger than the Zhou family, they could only rely on the system!
Reforms always brought pain.
Fortunately, there were not many cultivators in the Chen family, which meant that the reform did not affect many parties.
There was not much resistance to the reform.
If the Chen family’s current cultivation system was used to cultivate cultivators of the Fu generation, they would reform it at that time.
With their interests being violated, there were many clan cultivators who opposed it.
Thinking of this, Chen Daoxuan felt that reforming the family system was an urgent matter..
