Chapter 59: Thousands of Leaves Market_1

Underneath North Mountain, drastic transformations were unfolding.
However, on the surface, there were no noticeable changes at all.
The small spirit vein suddenly surged, continually expanding outwards.
Soon, ten peaks were within the coverage of the spirit vein.
The density of the spiritual energy increased several times over.
The original location of the Ye Family, which was now the main vein mountain peak of the Ye Family, saw a concentration of spiritual energy that had reached ten times more than before.
Within the Ye family, those who were just about to leave suddenly felt the change in the density of the spirit energy.
They looked at each other in astonishment.
However, nobody said a thing, for in their hearts their father was capable of anything.
A small increase in the density of the spirit energy? It’s not worth mentioning compared to their impressive father!
Ye Jintian was the first to rise from the ground and rushed to Ye Fan’s side.
“Dad, let’s use the outermost peak,” he said.
After the upgrade of the spirit vein, all ten mountain peaks could be considered spirit peaks.
The outermost one had the least dense spiritual energy, just a tenth of that at the main vein of the Ye Family.
Since Ye Jintian wanted it, Ye Fan of course wouldn’t refuse and agreed immediately.
Excited, Ye Jintian ran to the foot of the mountain, conjured up a flying sword, and cut out a large piece of stone.
Then, at the top of the mountain, he carved out four characters: Thousands of Leaves Market.
That’s right, after his recent failure, Ye Jintian reflected on his mistakes and decided to follow through with a plan he had in mind but never acted upon: the establishment of a market belonging to the Ye Family.
A market, especially a large one, can be very profitable.
After getting the signboard done, Ye Jintian proceeded to hire architects, array masters and others with secondary occupations.
The spirit peak that Ye Jintian had named Thousand Leaves Peak was six hundred meters high.
The closer one was to the peak, the denser the spiritual energy.
Ye Jintian first ordered the architects to carve out individual cave houses at the top of the mountain, each about five or six square meters, just big enough to accommodate a single cultivator.
Then, he called the array master to set up a Spirit Gathering Array within each cave house.
Ye Jintian planned to divide the cave houses into three grades: superior, middle, and inferior.
In the end, there were ten superior cave houses, fifty middle-grade ones, and one hundred of the inferior grade.
Three months later, looking at the fully-formed cave houses, a bright smile emerged on Ye Jintian’s face.
These cave houses were indeed money-making machines.
For loose cultivators, finding a place with a high concentration of spiritual energy for cultivation was extremely challenging.
If the Thousand Leaves Market could provide cultivators with cultivation cave houses, it would definitely earn a lot of spirit stones.
A superior cave house, costing two hundred low-grade spirit stones per month, is that expensive?
You think it’s expensive?
Then what about the middle-grade cave house, fifty low-grade spirit stones per month?
If you still find it expensive, then there’s the inferior cave house for ten low-grade spirit stones per month.
A quick calculation estimated an annual pure income of several tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones, and apart from the initial investment, there were almost no ongoing costs.
In the future, if the customer number goes up, the number of cave houses can be increased too.
As Ye Jintian thought about it, the smile on his face grew wider.
Next year, he thought, who could compete with me?
Meanwhile, within the Ye Family, Ye Fan opened the system panel.
System, let’s sum up!
As the number of cultivators in the Ye Family continued to grow, and their levels continued to rise, Ye Fan’s cultivation level gradually widened the gap with the rest of the Ye Family members.
This was the inevitable result of quantitative change causing qualitative change.
As an ancestor, it was only natural for his cultivation level to be far superior to the others in the family. Character: Ye Fan

Ye Fan’s cultivation level is not far from the Late Stage Foundation Establishment, but he is most concerned about his artifact refining skills.
With Ye Jinlong’s breakthrough to the top of the First Grade in Artifact Refining, Ye Fan’s Artifact Refining skills have finally broken through to the Second Grade.
Second -Grade Artifact Refining skills can forge spiritual artifacts used by Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators.
Spiritual artifacts possess great power, and they are termed that way because they possess spirits.
To imbue a spirit into a spiritual artifact, you need to fuse the spirit of a monster beast during refining.
When fusing a beast spirit, there may even be a chance that the spiritual artifact will inherit one ability of the spirit i.e., carry a skill.
Ye Fan has already prepared the materials required to cast a spiritual device.
Just waiting for the skill breakthrough, he can start refining immediately.
The greenwood fire surges, melting each spirit mineral stone.
Soon, a rudimentary form of a sword artifact emerges.
Once the rudimentary form was ready, as with crafting a magic artifact, it was time to engrave prohibitions.
However, even the most basic spiritual artifact contains hundreds of prohibitions.
Such expenditure is not something every cultivator can bear.
Generally speaking, only an Artifact Refiner at the Foundation Establishment stage has the ability to engrave hundreds of prohibitions.
10 days later, when the last prohibition is finished, the Spirit Sword instantly exudes a sharp aura.
The prohibition Ye Fan inscribed is the simplest Golden Edge Prohibition among the spiritual artifacts, belonging to the gold attribute spiritual artifacts.
In the end, Ye Fan brings out a sealed spirit of a peak Qi Cultivation level monster beast, slowly placing it into a designated spot.
Next moment, a flash of golden light, a burst of golden sword Qi, directly explodes from the Spirit Sword.
Ye Fan didn’t torment the Spirit Sword, this golden Sword Qi is entirely the skill brought about by the Spirit Sword.
“The first spiritual artifact, lower-grade Spirit Sword, Golden Light Sword.”
A Golden Light Sword requires spiritual materials worth a thousand lower-grade spirit stones, the spirit of a peak Qi Cultivation level beast is worth one thousand five hundred spirit stones.
To purchase a Golden Light Sword, you need at least fifteen thousand lower-grade spirit stones.
The higher the level of skills such as alchemy and artifact refining, the more horrifying the profit.
No wonder secondary professions of the second grade are so popular!
Even those Foundation Establishment Sects regard a second-grade secondary profession as an honored guest.
After Ye Fan crafted three lower-grade spirit swords, he crafted a full ten Foundation Establishment Elixirs.
Every last bit of Foundation Establishment Grass within the ruins, consumed to nothingness.
Not every strain of Foundation Establishment Grass can be refined to produce seeds, and after being cultivated, even those stocks are now depleted.
If he wants to continue to refine Foundation Establishment Elixirs in the future, he will need to find more Foundation Establishment Grass.
Ten Foundation Establishment Elixirs is not much, but Ye Fan still grit his teeth and brought out three.
If I want the Thousands of Leaves market to make a splash, there must be some items that no other market has.
Like the Foundation Establishment Elixir, Spiritual Artifacts!
Another three months pass, a piece of news spreads throughout the entire cultivator circle in Guanghe Prefecture.
The House of Thousands of Leaves Market, run by the Blue Snake Ye Family, is now open, selling various elixirs, magic artifacts, and resources.
Even more astonishingly, they have spiritual artifacts and Foundation Establishment Elixirs for sale!
