Chapter 72 / split
Fang Chen quickly calmed down and stopped worrying about such a distant thing. He just kept it in mind.

What we should do now is to study the immortal palace restrictions and rune combinations improved by Lin Qingshan.

In fact, with Lin Qingshan, Fang Chen doesn't need to care about these things. When the immortal palace needs to be iterated, he can just let him refine it.

However, in Fang Chen's plan, the final version of the Immortal Palace is his own spiritual root. For this reason, he has tried many times to integrate the two characteristics of spiritual affinity and small inch of space, but unfortunately he has never achieved anything.

Although he successfully integrated the Yin spirit space by relying on the soul-related characteristics, it was still far from what he had imagined.

It's not that he hadn't thought about bestowing the characteristics of the Yin Ling space on his own spiritual roots, but a cultivator's spiritual roots are closely related to the body, and a cultivator's body cannot absorb too much Yin Ling energy.

Before, Fang Chen and Lin Qingshan absorbed the Yin spiritual energy through their spiritual thoughts. This way, they could not only strengthen their soul power, but also slightly improve their cultivation.

Of course, the effect of improving cultivation can be ignored. If the time spent on absorbing the Yin spiritual energy is used for meditation and practice, the improvement in cultivation can be much greater than this.

However, if the physical body is contaminated with too much evil spirit energy, according to the memories of those ghost cultivators, it will cause a strong rejection reaction, causing great harm to the body.

It was also this point that made Fang Chen decide to keep trying until he could truly combine the square inch of space with the affinity of spiritual energy, and then grant spiritual roots.

On this basis, Lin Qingshan’s improved restriction combination can come into play.

It is true that prohibitions can be engraved and runes can be drawn on spiritual roots. According to the memories of those demon cultivators, this is a very common thing in the Star-Moon Sea, and it is the specialty of almost every demon cultivator who has concentrated his spiritual thoughts.

They have to take unconventional approaches because of their poor spiritual roots. If they don't work on their spiritual roots, how can they achieve anything?

To be honest, if it weren't for the brutal ways these demonic cultivators treated mortals, Fang Chen would really have to praise them as pioneers in the world of cultivation.

Fang Chen took out the space bag and observed it. Generally speaking, the restriction patterns of any magic weapon are hidden and cannot be seen from the outside.

If you want to crack it, you can only use it continuously, feel its effect, and use your spiritual thoughts to observe the flow of magic power inside.

It's easier said than done. Using magic power to activate the restriction is a matter of a split second, and it's difficult to detect even with spiritual power.

What's more, normal weapon refiners will add their own unique interference patterns when engraving restrictions to make the flow of magic power more bizarre. Even if one senses it with spiritual thoughts, one cannot infer the original appearance of the restriction.

However, Lin Qingshan knew that Fang Chen was interested in the restriction combination he optimized, so he directly drew it on the space bag in plain text.

As long as you have a certain foundation in formations, prohibitions and runes, you can understand it.

It's quite thoughtful.

"The space isolation barrier above has actually become somewhat three-dimensional. Did he redesign it?"

After observing carefully for a while, Fang Chen discovered the first difference, which was the most core space isolation restriction.

The space isolation restriction drawn by Lin Qingshan is different from that of Fang Chen. Based on the same mathematical rules, his restriction pattern looks like a three-dimensional image.

The restriction drawn by Fang Chen was just an ordinary floor plan.

The contrast is obvious.

The other runes are similar, transformed from two-dimensional planes to three-dimensional solids.

The same is true for the formation base of Liuhe Formation.

Lin Qingshan's optimization idea is to make all these flat patterns three-dimensional, and it turns out that this is a very successful approach.

"咚咚-"

Just when Fang Chen was about to learn this kind of three-dimensional prohibition engraving method, there was another knock on the door from the stairs.

"Enter."

Putting down the space bag, he guessed that the person coming this time should be Xu Qiyun.

"Lord."

Just as Fang Chen thought, seeing him in the training ground, Xu Qiyun strode over and bowed solemnly.

"What's the matter? Have all the spiritual plants been harvested?"

Fang Chen had previously entrusted the task of harvesting spiritual plants to Xu Qiyun. Since the other party came to him, it was most likely related to this matter.

"Yes, Deacon Lin is arranging for the descendants of the Immortal Dynasty to germinate the seeds according to your method and treat them with the Red Sun Technique. I will come here to report this to you first."

Xu Qiyun nodded, with a little fatigue on his face. Picking spiritual plants was not an easy task, so he did it himself.

Even though the Body-Forging Blood Vine improved his physical fitness, it still made him very tired.

This is not surprising. The physical fitness of cultivators at the first level of Qi training is not significantly improved compared to ordinary people. The descendants of the Immortal Dynasty, including him, can survive mainly because of the symbiotic blood vines in their bodies.

"Thank you for your hard work. According to our previous agreement, I will only take 50% of the finished spiritual plants, and the remaining 50% will be divided equally among the descendants of the Immortal Dynasty who have contributed."

Although he was surprised at the speed of their harvest, Fang Chen did not say much and did everything according to the rules.

"Lord, this is why I came to you. At the beginning, you said that you could give them half of the proceeds, which greatly encouraged them, but now they are facing a problem."

Xu Qiyun paused, and then continued, "After such a long period of labor, they also realized that the value of each spiritual plant is different, but the labor of people taking care of different fields is the same. If they directly distribute it to the finished spiritual plants they take care of, it will inevitably lead to uneven distribution."

"That's it..."

Fang Chen touched his chin and fell into deep thought. This was indeed an issue worthy of attention.

To be honest, he really didn't expect this question, but when Xu Qiyun raised this question, he instantly realized that this was not a small problem.

The Ganoderma lucidum that can be used to refine Qi Gathering Powder is purchased at the price of two spirit stones per plant in Lianyunfang City, while the price of Baiyun spirit grass is one spirit stone per plant.

After being refined into Qi Gathering Powder, one Lingzhi grass can be worth five Lingshi, while one Baiyun Lingcao is only worth one Lingshi after being made into 100 pieces of talisman paper. In this comparison, it seems that Lingzhi grass is more valuable.

But if you think about it carefully, you will find that the price of Baiyun Lingcao is very counterintuitive.

One white cloud spiritual grass costs one spiritual stone, and if it is made into one hundred talisman papers, each of these talisman papers is actually only worth one spiritual stone.

No matter how I think about it, it feels a little bit abnormal.

This is because most of the buyers of Baiyun Lingcao are talisman makers, and refining it into talisman paper is not a finished product for them, they also need to draw it into talismans.

Talismans are very expensive.

Even the cheapest talisman for the Five Elements Planting Spell can be sold for one spirit stone for ten pieces.

Therefore, Lianyunfang City deliberately raised the selling price of Baiyun Spiritual Grass. After all, talisman makers are a wealthy profession and do not care about this spiritual stone at all.

In terms of conversion, the income from growing Baiyun Spiritual Grass ranges between zero and ten spirit stones.

Since refining Ganoderma lucidum into Qi Condensing Powder is not necessarily 100% successful, the profit from Ganoderma lucidum is actually either zero or five spirit stones.

From this perspective, the value of Baiyun Lingcao is relatively high.

Because the value of spiritual plants depends on their final product, their price is difficult to anchor.

Simply splitting the profits of the finished spiritual plants 50-50 may seem fair, but it may make everyone feel that they have put in the same amount of work but gained less.

This would shake the foundation of his entire territory.

The best way is to distribute spirit stones directly, but the problem is that Fang Chen promised a 50-50 split at the beginning.

What's more, he didn't have any spiritual stones on him.

So he looked at Xu Qiyun and asked for his opinion: "If that's the case, do you have any ideas that can ensure fairness and justice?"

Xu Qiyun is a steady person. Maybe he already has a solution, but he doesn't dare to make a decision, so he comes to him for a decision.

"My Lord, I do have an immature idea. Since it is difficult to judge the price of each spiritual plant, we can distribute the same spiritual plants to all the descendants of the Immortal Dynasty."

Xu Qiyun did come with a solution, which made him feel relieved.

"Distribute the same spiritual plants? I guess we don't have that many spiritual plants planted this time."

Fang Chen also roughly understood Xu Qiyun's meaning, which was to harvest all the spiritual plants first and he would take half of them.

The remaining half, along with various spiritual plants, was distributed to every descendant of the Immortal Dynasty.

In this way, no matter the value of each spiritual plant, what is distributed to the descendants of the Immortal Dynasty is the same thing.

What's more, in order to take care of the first batch of spiritual fields, a shift system was adopted to allow them to accumulate more experience in caring for different spiritual plants.

Everyone's working hours are basically the same, and everyone takes care of all the spiritual plants. There is absolutely no problem with this method, and no one will raise any objections.

The only question is, are there enough spiritual plants to share?
When it was time to sow seeds, the seeds he had were only enough to plant five acres of each spiritual plant, or five hundred plants of each type. Even if he didn't take half, there would still be barely enough for everyone.

"Lord, when we take turns, we work in groups, so we can assign tasks in groups as well."

Xu Qiyun must have thought about this question and gave an answer immediately.

Fang Chen's eyes lit up.

Since every descendant of the Immortal Dynasty takes turns to take care of the spiritual fields, it would definitely not be enough if each type of spiritual plant was distributed in pairs.

But if each spiritual plant is distributed to each group, it would be enough.

"But if this is the case, wouldn't it put the problem of allocation back on the shoulders of each team leader?"

After being happy, Fang Chen quickly discovered the shortcomings of this plan.

"That's true, but at this point, we can set a price for each spiritual plant, and then use the contribution to settle the bill for each group. When we buy back these spiritual plants, the group leader only needs to allocate the contribution."

Xu Qiyun is also an old hand, how could he not know the ins and outs of this? He also had a plan to deal with it long ago.

That is to set a price for each spiritual plant.

"Then do it."

Fang Chen glanced at Xu Qiyun and agreed to this plan.

Xu Qiyun did pass the problem on to the team leader.

But at this point, the 50-50 split of the finished products that Fang Chen promised to the descendants of the Immortal Dynasty has been completed. In order to distribute it to team members more fairly, these team leaders requested to exchange the spiritual plants for contributions.

Fang Chen knew what to do next without Xu Qiyun telling him.

That is to process the spiritual plants into finished products as soon as possible so that the descendants of the Immortal Dynasty can exchange them with their contributions.

In this way, these spiritual plants were actually distributed to the descendants of the Immortal Dynasty, but they went around in circles a few times.

This is to ensure fairness and Fang Chen's promise.
