Talent Swallowing Hero

Chapter 784 Exchange Details

Even though Leo could break through to the Golden Core Realm and even become a Rank 3 Alchemist, his potential in cultivation was not much.

As for his knowledge of Rank 3 Alchemist, he could be useful for the sect; however, he can't become the future of the sect like Novan.

Hence, Leo could utmost become one of the Inner Circle Alchemists of the sect but he could not even become a Core Alchemist of the sect because it required Leo to be a Rank 4 Alchemist along with years of contribution to the sect and at least 50 percent success rate in refining the rank 4 pills.

"Do you want to keep the exchange monthly, quarterly, half-yearly or annually?"

The First Elder returned to his casual facial expression as he asked Leo about the exchange.

The exchange that the First Elder was talking about is the exchange of Ingredients for the pill refinements, pill and contribution points.

"I prefer monthly; however, won't it be troublesome to exchange every month?"

Since the distance between his sect and the Lunar Sect is huge, Leo thought it would be troublesome for the sect.

"Don't worry. There were many distributors of the sect and don't forget that you are only refining rank 2 pills and not even rank 3 pills."

The First Elder looked down on Leo for his way of thinking as he concluded their discussion in no time by saying,

"Since you like to exchange the pills with ingredients and the contribution points monthly, let's go with it."

"Every month, you will be given 30 sets of ingredients for the Foundation Establishment Pills along with 100 sets of Barrier Breaking Pills and Spiritual Essence Pills."

"Since the sect will be providing you with all the ingredients and considering your success rate of 60 percent with 10 pills per batch, you should submit

1) 60 Foundation Establishment Pills (48 mid-level and 12 high-level).

2) 600 Barrier Breaking Pills (480 mid-level and 120 high-level).

3) 600 Spiritual Essence Pills (480 mid-level and 120 high-level)."

The First Elder had already made calculations as he gave the exact number of pills that Leo had to submit every month.

"About the payment…."

"As for the payment, you will be given 100 contribution points (50+25+25)."

Before Leo could finish his words, the first elder informed Leo about the payment details and Leo would be fully paid in the contribution points that could be redeemed only in the sect.

"Isn't 100 contribution points very low? Can I refine more pills and increase my payment?"

Leo frowned when he heard that it was only 100 contribution points. Hence, he thought he should refine more and increase his income.

"Why don't you complete refining those pills first and then prove yourself before asking for more sets of ingredients."

Since Leo had just become the Guest Alchemist, the sect didn't want to entrust him with a huge number of ingredients.

So, the First Elder asked him to be patient and as long as he completed the exchanges on time, he could get more sets of ingredients.

"Five days after the full moon day, a caravan belonging to the Lunar Sect passes through Silvermoon City and you can give them the pills and take the ingredients from them."

The First Elder didn't bother to wait for Leo's response as he continued, "Since you are already in the sect, you can get the first batch of ingredients from the sect. Of course, I will ask a disciple to bring those ingredients to you soon."

"Do you have any doubts?"

Once the First Elder finished everything that he was supposed to tell, he asked Leo whether he still had any doubts.

"I don't have any doubts, First Elder."

Leo didn't go overboard as he already got enough things from the sect and he also successfully settled Novan in the sect as the Sect Leader's Disciple.

So, he said that he didn't have any doubts; however, he still had something to ask, "However, I have a request to ask, First Elder."

"Huh?"

Hearing that, the First Elder frowned as he asked, "What is it?"

"I was raising some beasts in my sect. Can I take a look at the Beast Garden of the sect so that I can modify at least some things in my Beast Ranch?"

The real reason why Leo wanted to enter the Beast Garden was to get the fourth system fragment and after returning to the Twilight Moon Sect, Leo planned to break through to the Golden Core Realm and then enter the Dark Moon Forest to get the fifth system fragment.

Regarding all these things, Leo had already planned and unless something unexpected happens, Leo decided to go through his plan step by step.

"You want to visit the Beast Garden?"

The First Elder didn't expect Leo to ask something so simple before saying, "Sure. You can go around. I will send someone to this Guest Courtyard to take you to the Beast Garden."

"Thank you, First Elder."

Leo was surprised that the First Elder agreed so easily; however, he didn't forget to thank him.

"Okay then, I will go now."

After saying that, the First Elder quietly left the Guest Courtyard, leaving Leo alone in the courtyard.

….

'It's time to check out the rewards and complete today's merging session.'

As for Leo, after the First Elder left, Leo returned to his room in the Guest Courtyard and checked out the things he got from [Heaven's Voice].

'10,000 mid-level Spirit Stones.'

'100 mid-level Moon Stones.'

'A Grade 8 Sect Creation Token.'

Leo's gaze paused on the Sect Creation Token and decided to check the information on it.

[Quasi Divine Knowledge]

…..

Item Name: Sect Creation Token.

Item Grade: Grade 8.

Use: Upon using this token, a cultivator can create a Grade 8 Sect and become the sect leader for the sect.

Note: A Sect Leader, elders and disciples can't be harmed as long as they are inside the Sect created using the Sect Leader Token.

….

'Huh? So, it can be considered as an indestructible fortress.'

Leo was surprised to see the note because there was no such information about the Sect Creation Token in his predecessor's memories.

'Also, it was a Grade 8 sect. It looks like I can establish myself once I become a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivation.'

With such cultivation and having more than a dozen Golden Core Realm Cultivators, Leo believed that he could create a Grade 8 sect without a problem.

Moreover, as long as they don't leave the sect, nothing can happen to them and if there were really any risk, Leo could order a seclusion for the entire sect and slowly turn all the Golden Core Realm Cultivators under him into Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators.

At that time, even the Grade 7 sect like the Lunar Sect will be forced to step back.

Of course, Leo didn't have a single Golden Core Realm cultivator under him; however, Leo was not talking about the 'Present'; instead, he was talking about the 'Future'.

"Anyway, since it is in the future, let's not think more about it and work on the merging session for now."

Half a day has passed already and if Leo didn't use all his 30 merging slots of the [Fundamental Merge] in the next 12 hours, they would be wasted.

Hence, Leo started working on merging the items.

100 low-level spirit stones → 10 mid-level spirit stones.

100 mid-level spirit stones → 10 high-level spirit stones.

100 mid-level moon stones → 10 high-level moon stones.

In no time, Leo had completed his merging session and looked forward to his rewards from the sect.

'As long as I get my rewards from the rewards, I can use 100 low-level Moon Stones and one mid-level Moon Stone to finally upgrade my talent.'

Leo was looking forward to upgrading his [Fundamental Merge] because with that he could increase the slots.

Moreover, after every upgrade, the cooldown of the [Fundamental Merge] will be reset.

'I wonder what kind of changes will occur to the [Fundamental Merge] this time.'

For the previous two upgrades, Leo only needed to use low-level Moon Stones; however, this time, he was going to use a mid-level Moon Stone.

So, of course, he was expecting something good from the upgradation of the [Fundamental Merge].

Time continued to pass as Leo patiently waited for his rewards while thinking about the profits he would be getting for refining the pills for the sect.

"Greetings, Guest Elder."

Soon, a young disciple with [Treasure] on his robes entered the Guest Courtyard and gave a Storage Ring to Leo.

"The First Elder has ordered me to bring this storage ring to you."

Before Leo could ask anything, the young disciple continued to explain the items in the storage ring, "There are the ingredients for the pills, along with your rewards that the Sect Leader had promised."

"Thank you, Disciple."

Leo became excited as he took the storage ring and saw all the items that were supposed to be in it.

"Also, if you are free, I want to bring you to the Beast Garder right away."

The disciple's words were not respectful and at the same time, he was not disrespectful.

In short, he was emotionless as he asked Leo.

"Let's go."

Even though he wanted to check the rewards he just got and upgrade his talent, Leo wanted to get the fourth system fragment as soon as possible.

Once he was done with it, he could stay in the Guest Courtyard for the night and leave the sect early tomorrow morning.

With thought in mind, Leo asked the disciple to bring him to the Beast Garden.
