The plaza was constructed at the foot of Shoushan Mountain, connecting the path leading to the summit.

Standing on the plaza, Xin Yun looked up, and at the end of the plaza, there was a staircase more than nine meters wide and nearly a kilometer long!

After making a quick observation, Xin Yun soon deduced detailed data, the steps started from the flat ground and ascended straight up along the steep slope of Shoushan Mountain, nine meters and nine centimeters in width, totaling nine hundred and ninety-nine steps.

On both sides of the staircase were luxurious white jade stone railings; the entire staircase was so clean it could reflect someone’s image!

At the end of the staircase was a huge and magnificent building erected against the mountain, imposing and grand.

Even in broad daylight, it radiated the brilliance of myriad lights.

Although it was far away, with Xin Yun’s current strength, he could still clearly see a huge plaque hanging above the main entrance of the building, bearing three big characters—Sky-opening Sect!

Indeed, establishing a sect would certainly require a mountain gate.

While a so-called mountain gate need not necessarily be built on a mountain, evidently…

most were just so.

Shaking his head in admiration, Xin Yun didn’t disturb anyone and headed straight for the staircase.

He was also eager to know how much the outer sect had developed in more than ten years.

It was midday, and the plaza was bustling with activity, truly a scene of people coming and going.

On the staircase leading to headquarters, there was an endless stream of people.

Some were ascending the mountain, while others hurried out from the branch offices.

Everyone was hurried and rarely greeted each other.

Puzzled, Xin Yun followed the crowd and made his way up the staircase.

Soon…

Xin Yun finally reached the top of the staircase, standing before the main entrance of the Sky-opening Sect’s outer headquarters.

When standing at the bottom of the mountain, one could only see the enormous building.

However, when Xin Yun arrived at the top of the staircase, he was astonished to find that this colossal building was merely the first courtyard!

Following the steep mountain slope, there were nine sections of stairs in total, each section nine meters and nine centimeters wide, with nine hundred and ninety-nine steps.

At the end of each section stood a large and magnificent hall, with the highest hall established at the summit of Shoushan Mountain!

Looking at the massive complex of buildings with admiration, Xin Yun could not imagine how much manpower and resources such a large project must have consumed, but honestly, the grandeur of the mountain gate was indeed fitting for the face of the Sky-opening Sect!

Pleased, Xin Yun mixed into the hurried crowd and entered the first hall.

As soon as he stepped inside, he was astounded by everything before his eyes.

The hall was silent but busier than one could imagine; Xin Yun could hardly believe his eyes.

The hall was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate tens of thousands of people without feeling crowded.

At this moment…

in the huge hall, large crowds gathered in front of ten massive counters, seemingly busy with something.

Curiously approaching, Xin Yun observed quietly.

Under his scrutiny, a middle-aged man took out a large quantity of medicinal materials from his space bracelet and placed them on the counter.

At the same time, the dozen or so attendants inside the counter quickly took these materials into a cauldron.

The cauldron seemed ordinary—a Four-legged Square Cauldron—but what appeared to be a simple small cauldron was miraculously never full, no matter how much was put into it.

Looking at all ten counters, huge quantities of materials were being placed into the cauldrons almost every second.

After submitting the materials, the attendants in the counter would hand out strange plates that were not coins to the sellers outside the counter.

Xin Yun took a stealthy glance; the metal plate had three small characters on the front—Sky-opening Sect, and the back had different numbers, ranging from one to one hundred, in various amounts.

Although he had not seen this plate before, something vaguely came to Xin Yun’s mind.

It seemed that…

Yi Luo Xiang had once asked him to help produce a batch of Contribution Plates for clan contributions to be used as exchange items.

As for those space bracelets filled with medicinal materials, they were part of the bank plan that Xin Yun had specifically promoted, equipped with exceptionally large internal spaces.

On closer inspection, the bracelets worn by these people who came to trade materials were all top-grade!

The space inside was as large as a full-size container truck, capable of holding several tons of materials.

Good heavens…

where did they get so many materials from!

With questions in his mind, of course, Xin Yun asked.

Through the Taiji Diagram, he contacted Chu Rui and inquired about the situation here in detail.

Learning that Xin Yun was right there, Chu Rui immediately wanted to come over, but Xin Yun stopped her.

He needed to see with his own eyes, as listening to descriptions would never be enough.

After Chu Rui’s explanation, Xin Yun quickly understood.

The people who had come to deliver goods were actually the persons in charge of the medicinal material collection centers in various cities. freeweɓnovel.cøm

They were responsible for establishing medicinal material collection points within the Sky-opening Sect-controlled ten thousand super-large cities.

Every once in a while, they would be sent here to submit the medicinal materials they had collected in exchange for Contribution Plates.

These Contribution Plates could be converted into contributions within the sect or exchanged for cash at any bank, ranking above currency and serving as the hard currency within the Sky-opening Sect.

Ever since the Sky-opening Sect had successfully taken control of tens of thousands of cities, with the planning of Yi Luo Xiang, ten thousand material collection stations sprung up alongside the banks.

Harnessing the power of more than a hundred billion people across tens of thousands of cities, they fully aimed to gather all kinds of medicinal materials for Green to use in Alchemy!
