Chapter 390: The Crafting of the Flying Boat
"Just now, I saw that you needed Demonic Beast materials. I happened to have killed a Tier-3 Horned Cow a few days ago, so I'll exchange the corpse of this Tier-3 Horned Cow with you," proposed Gu Yuan. This demon-hunting tree was at most Tier-2, but what mattered most was its rarity. In any case, exchanging it for the flesh of his Tier-3 Demonic Beast was a profitable deal.
"Furthermore, how would you like to exchange your Pill Recipe? You can propose it, and if I don't have it, I can help you apply to the Sect."
Wang Hong contributed the Pill Recipe this time, not just for himself but for the entire Sect, and it could even be considered a contribution to the entire Cultivation World.
With the Sect as his backing, Wang Hong naturally couldn't be at a loss. Most of his requests could be met.
"I heard that the Sect has Spiritual Herbs for refining Golden Cores. I want a portion of the Spiritual Herbs produced by the Sect."
He wanted a whole portion, but that wasn't very realistic. After all, many of the Spiritual Herbs required for Golden Core formation had to be thousands of years old. Those grown within the Qingxu Sect were relatively better, but the ones obtained from other Sects were exceptionally rare.
Gu Yuan's response didn't surprise Wang Hong. For Foundation Building cultivators, the most important thing was breaking through to Golden Core formation.
"I don't have these Spiritual Herbs on me either, but I can help you apply to the Sect. You can wait for my message."
Gu Yuan readily agreed. He believed that exchanging several dozens of Spiritual Herbs for this Pill Recipe would likely be approved by the Sect.
Once the deal was settled between the two, Gu Yuan and Sloppy Old Daoist had initially come to borrow the Flying Boat, but unexpectedly, their casual inquiry led to something far more valuable than the Flying Boat.
Afterward, Wang Hong traded a large quantity of Demonic Beast materials with the two Golden Core cultivators, most of which were Tier-2, with a few Tier-3 materials among them.
In this trade, Wang Hong obtained the flesh of several dozen Tier-2 Demonic Beasts, and notably, the entire body of a Tier-3 Horned Cow. Tier-3 Demonic Beast flesh was not something easily obtained.
Of course, Wang Hong only asked for items that he could immediately put to use in this trade. Items that he couldn't use at the moment would only take up space. Moreover, Demonic Beast materials were not very valuable at the moment. If they were kept and not used immediately, there was a risk of losing value in the future.
Wang Hong instructed Yin Ze to lead a group of people to process the Tier-2 Demonic Beast flesh into various types of Spirit Meals.
Due to the constant need to deal with warfare, there wasn't much time available. Therefore, Wang Hong requested that the Spirit Meals be primarily convenient for consumption.
Yin Ze led a group of Spirit Meal craftsmen and transformed the Demonic Beast flesh into various forms, including dense soups in earthen jars, sealed sausages in wooden boxes, dried meat, smoked meat, and pickled meat, among other varieties.
"It seems like a newly refined Flying Boat is currently undergoing a test flight."
"But the speed is simply astonishing!"
Gu Yuan also noticed the scene. He couldn't help but feel a bit helpless. He was a Golden Core Elder, yet he couldn't compare to a Foundation Building Disciple. He had put a lot of effort into obtaining a Flying Boat from the Sect, but this Foundation Building Disciple had two Flying Boats.
Just as they had borrowed one, he had immediately refined another.
Wang Hong paid little attention to the crowd's reactions. They had only tested the Flying Boat's performance, and as long as it could fly properly, that was all that mattered.
The Demon Clan's attacks continued, with them coming every day and leaving behind piles of corpses.
Most of these Demonic Beast corpses had become inexpensive resources for the East Zhou Trading Company. Some had been refined into Spirit Meals and sold to the stationed cultivators. The rest of the inedible Demonic Beast corpses were left for the demon-hunting tree to absorb.
Currently, Spirit Meals refined by the East Zhou Trading Company had become essential for nearly every stationed cultivator in the vicinity. Eating a few bites during breaks, while not as good as Spirit Wine, greatly aided in stamina recovery.
In addition to Spirit Meals, the East Zhou Trading Company's refined magical weapons, talismans, and other items had also spread in popularity in the area.
Cultivators patrolling within several dozen miles of the defense line would come to the East Zhou Trading Company to buy various items when they had the opportunity.
When these cultivators bought items, they discovered that the East Zhou Trading Company also purchased a wide range of Demonic Beast materials, a fact that delighted them as they sold their own Demonic Beast materials to the company in exchange for resources to use on the battlefield.
Furthermore, they learned that the East Zhou Trading Company accepted Demonic Beast corpses of all categories in exchange for resources.
As a result, the area under the city walls was thoroughly cleaned of Demonic Beast corpses.
The Demon Clan had originally planned to use cannon fodder to gradually wear down the strength and resources of the defending cultivators before launching a full-scale attack. However, they had recently noticed an unexpected surge in resistance in this particular area, where the defenders had suddenly become exceptionally courageous and fierce.
