So, Su Zhihe and Chao Jing'an bowed and said, "Thank you, junior brother, for telling me." Then they turned around and turned into a ray of fairy light and flew out of the Bichen Valley.

...

As the chief priest of the Ordination Court, Ding Zhongyuan is relatively leisurely on weekdays. However, if the Tianshi Mansion wants to recruit new disciples from the mortal world, or if someone in the Tianshi Mansion wants to convert to the Tianshi Mansion, the Ordination Court will be quite busy.

Because the Shoulu Academy is specifically responsible for granting the Dharma to new disciples. From the time a disciple first enters the sect to becoming a qualified disciple of the Tianshi Mansion, the Shoulu Academy will be involved in the entire process.

At this moment, Ding Zhongyuan was sitting in the main hall of the ordination academy, checking the situation of the disciples who had received the ordination in the past three months. She had already known that the chief priest of Baofang Academy, Master Hongqing, had returned from Canglan Sea.

Although Ding Zhongyuan was also surprised, she was not too shocked. She was a rational person and calmed down after the initial surprise.

It would be shocking if someone from the "Heaven" where the four ancestral heavenly masters served did not even have this ability.

Therefore, Ding Zhongyuan just treated Fang Jian's return with a normal attitude, and the most important thing was that some precious materials and elixirs were not enough to change the overall situation of Tianshi Mansion.

"Your Excellency, Su Zhihe, a disciple of the Shoulu Academy, requests to see you." Just then, a Taoist boy, about eleven or twelve years old, who was only at the Lianxu realm, walked into the hall and spoke to Ding Zhongyuan.

Ding Zhongyuan raised his head, "Su Zhihe?"

"Yes, he said he had something important to discuss and asked to see the chief priest." The Taoist boy said respectfully.

Ding Zhongyuan put the name book in his hand aside and said, "Let him in."

"Yes." The Taoist boy took the order and left.

Soon, Su Zhihe walked into the hall, and Ding Zhongyuan discovered that he was holding a jade slip in his hand.

"Disciple Su Zhihe, paying his respects to Uncle Ding." Su Zhihe stood still in the hall, then bowed and kowtowed.

Ding Zhongyuan smiled faintly and asked, "Zhihe, what brings you here to see me today?"

Su Zhihe held the jade slip in both hands and said, "Disciple has something I would like to ask for Uncle Ding's approval."

"Oh?" Ding Zhongyuan asked, "What's the matter?"

Su Zhihe immediately handed over the jade slip in his hand. Ding Zhongyuan looked at the jade slip in Su Zhihe's hand, slowly raised his hand, and the jade slip flew into Ding Zhongyuan's hand.

Ding Zhongyuan then used his divine sense to scan the jade slip and exclaimed in surprise, "What are you doing?"

Ding Zhongyuan couldn't help but be surprised, because the text on the jade slip basically said that Su Zhihe wanted to obtain some immortality medicine from Baofangyuan to refine elixirs that could improve his qualifications. It also noted the quantity, purpose, and type of immortality medicine. When Ding Zhongyuan was puzzled, Su Zhihe spoke up, "Uncle Ding, this is a decree issued by Master Hongqing, the chief priest of Baofangyuan. From now on, anyone who goes to Baofangyuan to obtain immortality medicine and precious materials must have this application form and the seal of the chief priest of their respective academy."

"Oh!" Ding Zhongyuan understood, "Are you here to ask me for a talisman?"

"That's right. Please help me, Uncle Ding. I will be very grateful." Su Zhihe bowed.

Ding Zhongyuan smiled faintly and said, "This is easy."

After that, she took out her libation seal and used her magic power to stamp the seal on the application form, then asked, "Is this okay?"

Su Zhihe took a look and immediately bowed, "Thank you, Uncle Ding."

Ding Zhongyuan waved his hand, then rolled up the jade slip with his sleeve and handed it to Su Zhihe, saying, "Go."

Su Zhihe took the jade slip, bowed to Ding Zhongyuan again, and then took his leave.

"This Master Hongqing... is quite a good person." Ding Zhongyuan said softly as he watched Su Zhihe's departing back.

In her opinion, Fang Jian did this just to show goodwill to the chief priests, because once all the disciples went to Baofangyuan to collect the elixirs and precious materials, they would need the seal of their respective chief priests. Then, would these chief priests have the right to distribute part of the elixirs and precious materials in Baofangyuan?

So in Ding Zhongyuan's opinion, this Master Hongqing is worthy of being a person from heaven. He is not only good at doing things, but also good at being a human being.

...

"Junior brother, take a look. This is my application form. It has the seal of the Ding Jijiu of the ordination academy." Su Zhihe handed the application form to Jing'an and said.

Jing'an took the application form, checked the seal on it and said, "It's confirmed, but Brother Su, you have to wait a moment."

"Oh?" Su Zhihe was confused: "Why wait?"

Jing'an bowed and said, "I'm truly sorry, but Master Hongqing brought back so many elixirs and precious materials that my fellow disciples are still sorting and storing them."

"A lot?" Su Zhihe asked with a hint of doubt: "How much? Will it take a long time?"

Jing'an said helplessly: "Brother Su, if you don't believe me, just come in with me and take a look."

After saying that, Jing'an turned and walked towards the hall behind him, and Su Zhihe immediately followed.

"Brother Su, this is a very important treasure house. You can only look at it from outside the hall." Jing'an said.

Su Zhihe nodded, and then Jing'an pushed open the door of the hall.

The moment the hall door opened, Su Zhihe's eyes suddenly widened. He saw that inside the main hall of the Zhenbao Division, except for the corridor in the middle, both sides were already filled with piles of immortal medicines and precious materials.

Only the word "pile" can describe the scene Su Zhihe saw. Not only did he widen his eyes, but he also opened his mouth wide.

If it weren't for the spiritual array protection in every hall of the Zhenbao Division, the fragrance of the medicine alone would have filled the entire Tianshi Mansion.

He stared in amazement at the mountains of medicinal herbs and precious materials piled up on both sides of the hall, and couldn't help but mutter to himself, "How much...how much is there?"

Jing'an said, "There are probably over 100,000 immortal medicines, of varying ages. There are also over 8,000 precious materials, of varying qualities. Of course, this is only a portion."

"Over 100,000 immortal herbs! Over 8,000 precious materials!" Su Zhihe's tone froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered. "Wait, what do you mean by only a portion?"

Jing'an smiled and said, "Brother Su, these immortal medicines and precious materials you see before you are only twenty of the over one hundred storage bags that Master Hongqing brought back. We estimated that the entire Zhenbao Division can only store twenty storage bags of immortal medicines and precious materials. The remaining eighty or so storage bags of immortal medicines and precious materials can only be left there for the time being. Fortunately, time does not pass in storage bags, so the spiritual energy inside them will not be lost."

Hearing this, Su Zhihe's vision went dark and he could barely breathe. After a while, he gradually recovered. Looking at the piles and piles of immortal medicines and precious materials in the hall, he muttered to himself, "I'm afraid Master Hongqing isn't going to collect immortal medicines and precious materials. He's scraping the entire Canglan Sea."
