NOVPUBChapter 833: Chapter 448: Huge Harvest Chapter 833: Chapter 448: Huge Harvest Aside from that, these Foundation Establishment Cultivators hailed from a power like Qingyun Sect, and although their cultivation levels were uneven, most had reached the initial-middle stage of Foundation Establishment.
But even the poorest disciple of a great power would not be without a family fortune of thirty to fifty thousand spirit stones.
According to their tally, just the spirit stones in these hundreds of storage bags added up to more than nine million two hundred thousand.
Nine million two hundred thousand, this number is extraordinarily terrifying!
Lin Shihua, as Clan Leader, managed all family expenses and knew full well what this number meant.
Think about the Lin Family several decades ago when, including the basic welfare provided to clan members, the whole family consumed about a hundred thousand spirit stones a year.
That is, in the last three or four decades, the overall strength of the Lin Family had soared rapidly, with Foundation Establishment Cultivators popping up like bamboo shoots after a rain, and the total number of family members increasing rapidly, leading to an annual spirit stone expenditure reaching several hundred thousand.
...
Even so, this near ten million spirit stones could support the Lin Family at this level of consumption for twenty years or so, without any income.
However, this did not include the weapons of the fallen cultivators, as well as various collected treasures, such as spiritual and elixir pills, talisman paper, spirit ore, and various materials—common cultivation resources.
Aside from these commonly used treasures, there were also various insights related to the Four Arts of Cultivation.
All of these were of First and Second Order grade and, while they weren’t of much use to Lin Shikang and Lin Tianming at present, they were a great boost to enhancing the family’s foundations.
Such an enhancement to the foundations was an incredibly important link for every rapidly developing family.
Lin Shikang and the others were also people of broad knowledge, recognizing ninety-nine percent of the treasures in the storage bags and the approximate value of these items.
After some rough calculations, the total value of the items in these hundreds of storage bags was at least over twenty-five million.
Moreover, there were dozens of strange items that even they had never seen or heard of before.
The value of these items was hard to estimate; they could be worthless or possibly precious treasures.
Regarding this, Lin Shikang couldn’t bother himself and dumped all these objects to Lin Shihua to be uniformly placed in the family treasure vault anyway, since for them, Golden Core Stage Clansmen, cultivation was difficult, and their use for many things was limited.
If they particularly needed any of these unknown items, they could search the family treasure vault themselves and use what was useful to them.
With the examination of these storage bags finished, the next highlight was Xu Zhi’s personal storage bag.
After all, Xu Zhi was a Mid Stage Golden Core Cultivator, and such a realm, in the entire Wei Kingdom’s Cultivation World, and even in the stronger Huangyang Country Cultivation World, was considered top-notch.
Although the combined value of those few hundred storage bags was very high, the items collected by Foundation Establishment Cultivators were not particularly valuable, and thus did not appeal much to Lin Shikang.
But Xu Zhi’s storage bag was different; after all, only the fortune and treasures of cultivators of the same Golden Core Stage Realm could excite them.
As a result, Lin Shikang became somewhat impatient.
Seeing Lin Shikang’s excited demeanor, Lin Shihua and Lin Shigong on the other side were similarly thrilled.
After all, they were already satisfied with breaking through the Foundation Establishment Stage; now they had the chance to witness the fortune of a Mid Stage Golden Core Cultivator.
Such an experience had never crossed their minds before.
And now, everything lay before their eyes; with a mere movement of Lin Shikang’s Divine Sense, the contents of the storage bag would also come into their view.
Thus at this moment, Lin Shihua and the other person were visibly excited, their breathing even became somewhat rapid.
Seeing this, Lin Shikang did not delay and easily erased the remaining Divine Sense of Xu Zhi from the storage bag.
Immediately after, Lin Shikang and the others extended their Divine Sense, carefully checking the contents of the storage bag.
In a short while, Lin Shikang and the others had ruddy complexions and appeared immensely satisfied.
Upon their investigation, Xu Zhi indeed proved to be a formidable Mid Stage Golden Core Strongman who had accumulated an extreme fortune over hundreds of years.
After a round of inventory, there were more than two hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones in the storage bag alone.
This was just the tip of the iceberg of his spirit stones; there were far more Medium-grade Spirit Stones, totaling over thirteen thousand.
In the Cultivation World, the value of Medium-grade Spirit Stones far surpassed that of low-grade ones; one Medium-grade Spirit Stone could be exchanged for one hundred low-grade Spirit Stones, and likewise, one hundred Medium-grade Spirit Stones could be exchanged for one High Quality Spirit Stone.
In some places, one Medium-grade Spirit Stone could even be exchanged for one hundred and five low-grade Spirit Stones.
As for the even higher grade High Quality Spirit Stones, these were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns; even Nascent Soul Stage Powerhouses might not have many.
However, even with this one hundred to one exchange rate, no cultivator would foolishly use their Medium-grade Spirit Stones to exchange for a hundred low-grade Spirit Stones, which are common in the Cultivation World.
The higher the grade of spirit stones, the scarcer they are in the Cultivation World, and the more uses they have.
Whether for cultivation, formation setup, or even refining some special elixirs, the effect varies greatly.
Therefore, the higher the grade of the spirit stone, the greater the value and the wider the application.
Like a High Quality Spirit Stone, that is the heart’s blood of a Nascent Soul Cultivator, and nobody would trade it.
