Chapter 816 The Treasure House of Xiaoyao Sect
On a snowy plain, a translucent yellow light shield covered half of the snowy plain. Inside the light shield, arrays of formations floated in the air. These arrays could control the weather inside the light shield. Below the arrays were densely packed farmlands, on which various crops were planted. Paths in the fields led directly to the Xiaoyao Sect in the middle.
“I’m really sorry, this array in the air is very fragile and cannot be approached, so you can only walk into the Xiaoyao Sect.” Miao Miaomiao said a little embarrassedly.
Ji Dongfeng smiled and said, "It's okay, but I have a question. This formation can control the weather, right? Since Xiaoyao Sect has this method, why not set up this formation above those villages and towns?"
Miao Miaomiao blushed and said, "Yes... it's because it takes a lot of spirit stones to maintain these formations... The sect doesn't have many spirit stones now, and the elders who set up this formation are not proficient in the art of formations. This formation is a bit rough and can't be too far away from Xiaoyao Sect."
"Then... the purpose of using formations to take good care of these farmlands is..." Xiong Bao said in some confusion.
"It's emergency food. Food is the first necessity of the people. The sect master said that immortal cultivators can survive on spiritual energy, but ordinary people can't. Most of the time, people can grow their own food, but there will always be times when food is scarce. Xiaoyao Sect has this tradition since its establishment, storing food for the people of the world, and releasing food once food is scarce."
"Xiaoyao Sect has a way to keep food from spoiling. After so many years of accumulation, the food in the treasury is enough to feed all the people of the first heaven for a hundred years! But the sect master is still worried and asked us to continue planting! It can be said that as long as Xiaoyao Sect is there, the people of the first heaven will not suffer from hunger!" Miao Miaomiao said proudly.
"Is your treasury full of food?" Ji Dongfeng asked.
"Yes, we have three treasuries, one for food, one for vegetables, and one for seeds!"
"Three, you only have five palaces in total." Xiong Bao said.
"That's right. The remaining one is for preaching and storing farm tools for the people. There is another one for us to sleep. The second floor is for sleeping."
"There is no other sect like this in the entire world of immortal cultivation." Zhong Polei sighed.
As he spoke, Miao Miaomiao led Ji Dongfeng and the other two along the path in the field towards Xiaoyao Sect. In the farmland on both sides, many disciples and even elders of Xiaoyao Sect could be seen checking the growth of grain.
"Grand Elder!" Miao Miaomiao waved at an old man in the field and shouted loudly.
Hearing this, the old man nodded at Miao Miaomiao, then glanced at Ji Dongfeng, and then ignored him and continued to look down at the grain in the field.
"This is our Grand Elder, Yuan Dean." Miao Miaomiao smiled.
As he spoke, the group came to the gate of Xiaoyao Sect. Zhang Xiruo had already brought some elders and disciples here.
"I'm ready, but I still want to advise you..." Zhang Xiruo looked at Ji Dongfeng and said with some concern.
"Senior, no need to persuade me, I have made up my mind. Besides, I still have two seniors to help me. Don't worry, I will definitely be fine." Ji Dongfeng laughed.
Zhang Xiruo sighed and said, "You are really like your mother. Let's go to the main hall to rest for a while."
The next moment, Zhang Xiruo brought Ji Dongfeng and the other two to the main hall of Xiaoyao Sect. Although it was called the main hall, it was actually filled with various farm tools. In addition, Ji Dongfeng also found that Xiaoyao Sect placed spiritual stones and some treasures outside.
"In the eyes of Xiaoyao Sect, these treasures are not as important as food and seeds..." Ji Dongfeng murmured.
"How many disciples does Xiaoyao Sect have now?" Zhong Polei asked.
"There are 72 inner disciples and countless outer disciples." Zhang Xiruo said, and personally poured tea for the three people.
"A little less." Zhong Polei frowned slightly.
"It's normal. Others cultivate immortals to go to heaven. No one wants to go to the ground." Zhang Xiruo said with a calm expression.

Most of the time, people can grow their own food, but there will always be times when food is short. Xiaoyao Sect has this tradition since its establishment, storing food for the people of the world, and releasing food when food is short."

"This is our Grand Elder, Yuan Dean." Miao Miaomiao said with a smile.
As they were talking, a group of people came to the gate of Xiaoyao Sect. Zhang Xiruo had already brought some elders and disciples to wait here.
"I'm ready, but I still want to advise you..." Zhang Xiruo looked at Ji Dongfeng and said with some concern.
"Senior, don't persuade me, I've made up my mind. Besides, there are two seniors to help me. Don't worry, I will definitely be fine." Ji Dongfeng laughed.
