Chen Mobai decided to stay.

Tianhe Realm is his greatest opportunity. There is no doubt that he will spend a long time in this world, and in this world full of battles and danger, he can’t always keep hiding.

Defending Green Light Island this time can give him a direct view of the large-scale battle level of this world.

Moreover, with the Divine Wood Sect taking the lead, such opportunities are not plentiful.

Even if the Divine Wood Sect can’t hold on in the end and has to retreat through the teleportation array, it will surely cause a great commotion, which cannot be hidden. He only needs eight seconds to return to the city. When the time comes, he can dig a hole under his wooden house. If the island is truly breached, he can still hide for eight seconds without any problem.

After leaving Ba Jiang, Chen Mobai first went to the street, Fang Market on the island, intending to see if he could purchase some magic artifacts and talismans that could increase his combat power. But he was already too late, almost all the items had been snapped up.

The rest were either inferior products or magic artifacts that had greatly reduced power due to damage.

As for elixirs, they were truly all sold out. Even those medicinal herbs, as long as they could recuperate spiritual power or cure injuries upon consumption, had been bought up by the cultivators who were willing to spend money.

The stores set up by the Divine Wood Sect were even more needless to say. After ordering the island’s closure, they closed their doors. All the supplies were controlled by Zheng Deming and partly distributed to the sect disciples on the island.

There were quite a few loose cultivators dreaming of getting rich by the roadside. They brought out items they usually dare not sell and opened up with exorbitant prices that were two to three times higher than usual.

Chen Mobai took a liking to a spirit mirror artifact capable of attacking and defending, but the stall owner’s asking price of 80 spirit stones forced him to shake his head and leave.

After he made his round, he discovered how poor he really was and had to return to his own wooden house, only to find someone already waiting at the door.

“Mr. Wang, why are you standing at the door?”

Chen Mobai greeted him. This man was the steward of Divine Wood Sect who had originally rented him this wooden house. The latter seemed to have just arrived not long ago. He was hesitating whether to wait a little longer. Seeing Chen Mobai’s return, he let out a sigh of relief.

“Friend Chen, this is the recruitment order issued by my Divine Wood Sect. As a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Cultivation, I’ve come to inform you, hoping that you can help defend the Spirit Island in this critical moment and lend a hand to our sect.”

Steward Wang handed a recruitment order that was stamped with the Divine Wood Sect’s seal to Chen Mobai. The latter, having decided to stay, naturally would not refuse.

“No problem, but where can I collect the spirit stones?”

The recruitment order clearly stated the conditions for recruiting loose cultivators to defend the island, exactly as disclosed by Qi Hou. Once you accept the Divine Wood Sect’s conscription, the remuneration spirit stones would be distributed before each day’s battle.

Such conditions are absolutely full of sincerity.

“If you’re willing, you’d belong to the small team under my command, and I’ll distribute the spirit stones.”

Steward Wang’s words made Chen Mobai nod in approval, after which he immediately signed right on the recruitment order.

“According to the investigation of Uncle Zheng’s spirit talisman, the first batch of demonic beast army will arrive in about two hours. I still need to issue recruitment orders to more than ten other loose cultivators. I hope, Friend Chen, you can gather at this place an hour later.”

After listening, Chen Mobai nodded again. Steward Wang was also very generous, directly paying out the 5 spirit stones.

After all, the Divine Wood Sect’s Large Formation to protect the island has been activated. These loose cultivators couldn’t escape even if they wanted to, so they weren’t afraid of Chen Mobai going back on his word after receiving the spirit stones.

What Steward Wang didn’t know was that right after he left, Chen Mobai immediately used Turtle Treasure to return to the Earth Realm.

Of course, he didn’t flee. Instead, he went to purchase supplies for battle.

At home, the packet of more than two hundred talismans sent by the Wood Spirit Talisman store was casually swept by Chen Mobai’s glance and then stuffed into his bag. Then he called Wu Wan.

There was inflation in Green Light Island, but over here in the Earth Realm, the prices of magic artifacts had always been very steady. However, magic artifacts used for battle were unusually high.

There was no way, producing a magic artifact that had a huge killing power required prior application and approval from the relevant departments of the immortal gates. Once they were made and bought, the buyer had to register again. It needed to be reported every time it was used. All kinds of reasons made the prices of magic artifacts used for battle soar.

However, defense-type magic artifacts only needed to be recorded once they were made, so their value had always been very stable.

Chen Mobai felt that in a battle, it’s safest to protect one’s life. Although he had practiced the Water Elemental Shield and had the Wooden Shield Charm and the Wood Armor Talisman, he still felt he needed to buy another defensive magic weapon to feel assured to participate in the island defense battle.

“A defensive magic artifact, my budget is around 80,000 Good Deed Points.”

After making his demand clear in one sentence, Wu Wan, as a Rank-1 Treasure Appraiser, had quite a few resources at hand and had three magic artifacts that met his requirements.

Due to the urgency, this time Chen Mobai didn’t take his time to take public transportation, he went to Wu’s Gold Shop by taxi directly.

“I only have this one right now. If you need the other two, they have to be transferred from other Blessed Earth Cities.”

“How long would it take?”

“One is in the same city, it can probably arrive tomorrow. The other has to be transferred from Weiyu Blessed Earth, the fastest can be three days if you are not stingy with Good Deed Points.”

In the immortal gates, shipping is free within the same city. The freight for shipping from other Blessed Earth City is not cheap. But at this time Chen Mobai would certainly not care about these, only the time was too tight.

So he started to look at the defensive magic artifact that Wu Wan took out from his safe.

It was a helmet, all golden and looked very dazzling.

“It’s a Rank-1 intermediate grade magic artifact. When worn, it can defend against spells that attack the Divine Sea directly. When I was refining it, I also built in a prohibition for the Spiritual Force Shield. If it is filled with spiritual power in advance, you can activate it once without using your own spiritual power.”

As Wu Wan introduced this helmet, he seemed a bit loath to part with it.

“Oh, I wasn’t expecting it to be personally crafted by Master Wu.”

Although every treasure appraiser has the heart to become an artifact refiner, Wu Wan’s words still surprised Chen Mobai a bit.

“Originally, when I was refining this helmet, it was to enhance supreme sense during the Foundation Establishment. Because I only got my hands on the Vein Protection Pill, I didn’t have the Spirit Ascension Powder. Sadly, I still lacked the fundamental skills, and my Foundation Establishment failed. It will take several years to reach the Qi Cultivation Perfection again next time. If you need it, I’ll sell it to you at a discounted price.”

When Wu Wan spoke these words, although he sounded nonchalant, Chen Mobai could hear his sighs.

The difficulty of Foundation Establishment for ordinary cultivators in the Immortal Gate, is akin to ascending to heaven.

“What price does Master Wu plan to sell it for?”

“This magic artifact is made from refined Essence of Gold, the material cost is extraordinary. We can be considered old acquaintances, 100,000 Good Deed Points.”

“Isn’t that too expensive? My budget is only 80,000 Good Deed Points.”

Over this period of buying talismans and auxiliary medicine for the

Qi-replenishing Spirit Water, Chen Mobai’s original 160,000 Good Deed Points given by Tirio had been halved. This time he was planning to participate in the island defense battle and didn’t plan on saving much. The 80,000 Good Deed Points was all he had left..
