《The Hidden Myth of Ji Dara 》Chapter 106: The Properties & Potentials Of Qi Stones
Advertisement
But right in that moment, the rest of them began to entertain the idea; after all, no matter how they looked at it, Dara had excelled as a true leader and that really stifled Uncle Min who knew he was already losing the battle if he doesn't prove his worth anytime soon, as Elder Smith's next statement ended all their thoughts…
"I have been waiting for you since the white and yellow sun bloomed…"
Elder Smith directed towards Ji Wang who realized that he was referring to the flowers which was now providing daylight for the entire tribe;
"What is it? You came up with some new ideas?" Ji Wang hit back with a smug grin;
"Alright, that's enough, you two…" Dara stopped the two from bickering;
"Elder Smith, meet Ji Long…"
"Hello…"
"Morning…"
"So, why have you brought him here, Leader?" "You will love what he has to say…"
Dara mystified and allowed Ji Long to explain everything they had just discussed earlier, and he was rather stunned because after their first discussion, not only was Ji Long able to accurately summarized everything;
Hey were also so detailed that each and every one of them began to get new ideas about the Qi Stones;
"Whoa, if I can melt this Qi Stones and add some molten steel and ore dust to it-"
Elder Smith paused as his brains almost short-circuited from thinking about the possible endpoint of such an experiment;
"Shit, my old beards come alive simply thinking about the endless possibilities this Qi Stones can have in forging…"
Elder Smith blurted with a heavy laughter and his beard did tremble from such exciting and heavy laughter;
"Yeah, and imagine if we could build entire residences out of it, that would mean all out tribesmen would be able to cultivate naturally, and that way the Qi Stones we have would be focused on other important things…"

Ji Wang was almost biting his fingers out of sheer excitement; he was truly the ambitious one, and everyone liked him because of that, which is why he was loved by most of the tribe....
But Ji Chen on the other hand was simply respected as he was the one in charge of ensuring that every single tribesmen were able to fend for themselves whenever they ran into trouble…
"I was just think about what would happen if we were to stick a 20 meter long Qi Stone beneath each building and link the end to the foundation of each building, that long Qi Stone rod would be able to reach deeper into the earth where it would be able to transmit stronger, richer and thicker energy to the rest of the building…"
Dara imputed and the rest of the group actually looked at him like he was some sort of monster, and that was because what he just suggested was way ahead of their best ideas;
"That would definitely increase the amount of QI generated by the building by almost five fold, and if we can place four of those rods per building and link it to the four edges of the building, the building should be able to generate normally…" Ji Long added;
"But the question is, would we be able to get as much Qi Stones from that cave as we need…" Elder Smith brought them back to the logical reality;
It is good to dream and fantasy was great, but they could only benefit one if they can find a natural and logical way to bring those dreams and fantasy to reality…
"How many of those buildings are we planning to build?" Ji Long asked;
"About 25…" Ji Wang quickly chipped in before anyone else could reply...

Furthermore, despite being 5 more than they originally needed Dara decided not to say anything because he knew the only reason why Ji Wang would do that was if he had something he needed to use the extra five for...
Adding to the fact that it would be something to benefit the entire tribe, there was no point in stopping him…
"Well, I don't know about 25 buildings, but if we excavate all the possible stones within that cave, we should be able to get for about 15 to 20 buildings…" Ji Long added as Dara's eyes expanded in delight…
"Then let's do it!" Elder Smith blurted even though he didn't know the sizes of the building in question…
"Not yet…" Dara abruptly blurted;
"Eh?"
"Why?"
"What are you thinking, Leader?"
Ji Wang and Uncle Min blurted simultaneously, whilst Ji Long who knew Dara must have a valid reason asked the last question respectfully;
"We just ransacked the entire area, and I also set flames to the cave, and whilst I know that the flames can't destroy the entire mountains, we still have to be very careful about going back there…" Dara explained;
"It's true…"
"That place was one of the Royal Tribe's main source of strength and income, and now that it had been invaded, and they also know the benefits of the Qi Stones left in it, they would obviously send reinforcements to guard the area whilst they excavate every other useful Qi Stones from it…"
Ji Long added as the excitement within the group went down the drain making them feel like they had been poured cold water on a windy winter night in Antarctica…
"But we can send a small group of people to scout the area and bring back word on what they find, if there are no one there yet, we can start excavating all we can as fast as possible whilst we send people to lookout for any sight of reinforcements…" Dara added as their excitement grew once again;
"That's fantastic!"
"Nice idea!"
"You thought well, Leader!" They all commented happily as Dara simply smiled instead…
"Alright, let's finish up here first…"
"Ji Wang, stay here with Elder Smith and finish up everything he might possibly need…"
"Uncle Min, you can continue with the construction of the vaults and store…"
"When both of you are done, I will join you to go look at the landscape and how the structures and buildings will be positioned to maximize the entire area perfectly…"
"Ji Long, you are very familiar with everyone within the QI Stone Farms, thus I will need you to help me sort them out…" Dara dished out one order after the other as Ji Long cut in;
"Most of them would most likely lose their cultivations, but not to much, but you might end up with a whole load of experts in the Peak Qi Creation stages…" He explained...

The Immortalizer
Walter was a mage, and Walter wasn’t happy. Oh, being able to bend the rules of the universe to his whim was nice enough, but he yearned for the freedom of choice. Maybe he would have wanted to be a farmer, a baker or a shoemaker? How would it feel to live a life like that? So, Walter made a plan: He would achieve true immortality.
