Back at the warehouse in the Grand Narukami Shrine, it was already deep into the night.
A great many things had been piled up here.
Yae Miko and Hanasari had basically stripped the Qingyun sect clean.
Refining materials, alchemy materials, and all kinds of herbs and flowers. Almost everything that could be carried had been brought back.
On top of that, many treasures from the demonic sects had been brought over as well.
"Lord Su Han, come take a look at how we should divide these... There's quite a lot. The refining materials alone are enough to equip three thousand people."
"Send them straight to Toukizai, but keep five hundred sets aside for cultivating the talented refiners..."
"Understood."
Baiwen quickly passed the order down.
Soon, huge amounts of materials were delivered to Toukizai.
The little old man stared at the mountain-like pile of materials, grinning like a child.
"Don't worry. Give me half a month at most... I'll make sure everything is ready for you!"
With so many materials, plus the brand-new refining techniques, he could forge a lot of treasures.
Who would have thought that a monster once considered unremarkable would now become a major artifact refiner?
After dealing with the refining materials, Su Han began allocating the remaining resources.
"Leave one-third of the alchemy materials. Give the rest to Dianni and Baishu to work on alchemy together... Also tell Qiqi not to stand by the furnace every day. What matters most is that she cultivates more."
"Yes..."
"What should we do with these magical treasures?"
Mona looked at the low-grade flying swords.
She had no interest in them at all.
Compared with the flying swords from the Shushan world, these things were far too crude.
They were clearly on a much lower level.
Yoimiya tilted her head and said, "How about... giving them to the new disciples? I heard that Immortal Trace Mountain has taken in a lot of new disciples recently?"
"Giving them away directly wouldn't be good... it'll make the disciples lazy," Hanasari said, shaking her head.
The items could be given out, but they absolutely could not be handed over for free.
While Nuo Nuo was gnawing on a chicken leg, she suggested, "How about setting up some adventures? Hide treasures inside, and each person can only take one..."
Everyone's eyes lit up.
That was a good idea.
It would keep them from getting things for nothing.
And it would also train the disciples' strength.
Hearing this, Su Han smiled. "Then leave it to Lisa... You and Yae Miko can discuss it. After the Moonchase Festival, set up some adventure challenges. Preferably in separate areas.
We can also put the Beast Realm Hounds we captured before inside as monsters.
Defeat those creatures, or clear some puzzles, and only then can they get the treasures...
Training strength alone isn't enough. We need to train their brains too..."
"Mm, I'll go take care of it... But where should we set it up? We don't really have a place big enough right now... And since it's this kind of place, it'll need quite a lot of land..."
"We do. Isn't the Qingyun we robbed sitting there ready to use?" Hu Tao said with a sly grin.
Only then did everyone remember.
Those mountains had already been placed near Araumi.
With a bit of array support, they could become a pretty good secret realm.
"Good... then it's settled. Though I think we can also add some techniques into it, like... alchemy and artifact-refining manuals.
They don't have to be top-tier, but they should have their own unique features.
What do you all think?"
"Mm... I even feel like non-disciples could join too. Each person can only obtain one treasure. Everyone can only enter once every three months...
For ordinary disciples, once a month would be fine.
We can put pills, techniques, and artifact-refining treasures inside..."
The group discussed it back and forth.
Very quickly, a decision was made.
The materials were then sent everywhere to begin the work.
After everything was handled, Su Han saw that there was still time.
So he claimed this batch of rewards.
[System: Congratulations, the group member has completed a five-star all-heavens mission. As the group leader, you have received an extra reward: 260,000 points.]
[System: Congratulations, the group member has completed a five-star all-heavens mission. As the group leader, you have received the mission reward: Ancient Immortal Execution Sword Formation Diagram.]
[Ancient Immortal Execution Sword Formation Diagram]: A formation from the Immortal Realm. Originally, because it crossed worlds and was damaged, the sword formation obtained by Qingyun was incomplete.
[Description]: This formation can be used without the ancient Immortal Execution Sword, but... it must have one immortal sword as the array core. At the same time... if the number of flying swords increases, the formation's damage will become even more terrifying.
[Introduction]: The so-called sword formation is a formation made for killing. Killing intent is the main force, with trapping intent as support. If all four immortal swords can be gathered, the power of this formation will rise to its peak.
Enemies trapped inside will be unable to escape, and will be ground down alive by sword qi.
Maximum range: 500 kilometers.
Within the sword formation, not a blade of grass grows, and souls are extinguished.
[Note]: This sword formation can grow stronger after killing enemies. If their souls are killed, they will become puppets of the formation.
[Tip]: The host may choose to alter the souls inside the Deep Astral Soul Tower into various forms.
Among them: Hollowified beings have violent power and are difficult to control.
Shinigami-type beings cannot move during the day until their strength reaches a certain level.
Quincy-type beings are suited for varied combat. They can move freely during the day, but when their strength is still weak, their sustained duration is very short.
[Suggestion]: If four immortal swords cannot be gathered, one immortal sword can serve as the main body, with the other four immortal swords as support. They must all be personally refined by the host.
When unleashed, sword qi will surge like a tide.
With a single thought, tens of thousands of enemies can be slain.
[Special]: When the formation is not in use, it can hide within the void and draw on the power of heaven and earth to maintain order. Once it erupts, ghosts and gods will howl in terror.
The reward was astonishing.
It was actually a formation from the Immortal Realm.
And it was something that matched immortal swords.
"If immortal swords are already this powerful, then... what if I use the Xuanyuan Sword? If I make the four divine weapons the core... that range would probably be earthshaking..."
Su Han thought about it for a moment.
Then he couldn't help trembling.
He had another trump card now.
On ordinary days, he could use the Daybreak Sword to unleash the formation. And when facing enemies like demon gods...
If he used the Xuanyuan Sword as the main body...
He felt like he might really be able to kill a demon god.
As long as he refined this formation properly.
However, gathering four immortal swords was truly too difficult.
Still, this reward was incredibly impressive.
Su Han didn't try to fuse it.
Instead, he went to find his Thunder God wife.
He handed her the method for refining the sword formation.
"Hm? You should keep such a treasure for yourself... Why give it to me? My strength doesn't need this sword formation anymore. As long as I have you, that's enough..."
Raiden Ei said softly.
Her eyes were already full of affection.
The treasure her beloved obtained was being given to her.
That meant she held a very important place in his heart.
Su Han put his arms around his wife and said, "Silly girl... look carefully. This is a sword formation diagram, not a magical treasure. Got it?"
"You... you mean..."
"Exactly. Anyone can study this formation diagram. As long as they cultivate it, they can succeed... It's not a one-time-use magical item. Once it's bound to you, only you can use it."
"So that's how it is. But... if I study this diagram, it'll probably take a lot of time..."
If this were before, Raiden Ei wouldn't have minded loneliness.
After all, she had nothing left.
But now, she had a husband... her little circle of friends had returned, and her sister was back too.
If you wanted her to keep being a shut-in, Raiden Ei wasn't happy about that.
Su Han said irritably, "This is for improving your strength. I'm guessing it can raise your power by at least twenty percent. Don't waste my kindness."
"Mm... I know, but..."
Raiden Ei pointed a finger.
Slowly, she pushed Su Han down onto the floor.
A blush rose on her face.
"Hey... what are you doing? It's only morning..."
"So what if it's morning? Who would dare disturb us? And if I'm going to study this diagram, then I won't be able to be intimate with you. Since we still have time...
I'll drain you first..."
Raiden Ei's voice left no room for Su Han to object.
What happened after that,
only the two of them knew.
By the time afternoon came around, Su Han was being helped out by Hu Tao.
Once they got into the room,
she directly pulled open his clothes.
"Hey... what are you doing?"
Su Han looked at Hu Tao's actions and shivered in alarm.
This girl couldn't have been stimulated too, could she?
If this turned into a real round, it would be deadly.
In the end, Hu Tao pulled a bottle from her pocket and rolled her eyes.
"Of course I'm giving you a massage... Did you think I'd bully you like that Thunder God? Hmph...
Such a greedy cat. She doesn't know how to care about people at all..."
She tugged his clothes open.
Although there weren't any red marks,
the girl knew Su Han must have been worn out.
She poured some medicine from the bottle.
Then she started massaging him.
And honestly... the cool, fresh scent was very soothing, and after the medicinal liquid entered his body, it even eased the soreness and numbness.
Hu Tao massaged him with all her strength.
Her little hands kneaded like dough.
Again and again.
Gradually, Su Han actually drifted off to sleep.
His whole body was utterly relaxed.
By the time he woke again, it was already evening.
"Here. Drink some juice I specially made for you. It has a little herbal medicine in it, but it tastes great..."
The juice was pink.
And it smelled fresh.
Su Han took a sip and thought it was excellent.
It had goji berries and some other fruits in it.
It was honestly good enough to sell.
He looked curiously at the girl, who was covered in sweat, and asked, "Where did you get that medicine... and this drink too?"
"Naturally from Baishu. As for this medicine... I made it myself two months ago, hehe... I didn't think I'd get to use it on you today. The effect is great, right?"
"It really is great..."
Su Han didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
But what he really hoped was that he would never have to use this medicine.
Hu Tao blinked at him and said, "It's fine... With so many wives around you, it makes sense to be busy. But that Thunder God, I'll have to talk to her next time...
How can she be so inconsiderate?"
