The Immortal Jian Yue Statue is a third-grade luck magic weapon. It is not an ordinary magic weapon. Let’s not talk about the difficulty of refining it. Let’s talk about the materials required for refining. All of them are rare and rare treasures. First, a large amount of Kunlun Heavenly Jade is needed to form the overall outline of the immortal statue, and then the spirit-repelling magic powder ground from the spirit-restraining magic stone is added to create the immortal body.
Kunlun Heavenly Jade, the soul-destroying magic stone is extremely rare in the world of cultivation, and it has a price but no market. Whenever it appears, it will cause a war between sects. Often, some sects will be severely damaged in the battles and eventually die.
The "All-Seeing Spirit-Deterring Array" is drawn with the essence and blood of a large number of ninth-level spirit beasts, so that it can have the effect of deterring spirits. A ninth-level spiritual beast is equivalent to a cultivator in the late stage of pill formation. Such an overlord would voluntarily donate a large amount of his blood essence?
Every time a ninth-level spirit beast was hunted, the sect had to take great risks, endure huge pressure, and make adequate preparations. If he fails and is escaped by a ninth-level spirit beast, the sect will be trapped in a quagmire and be in dire straits. The never-ending revenge of the ninth-level spiritual beast will bring down the entire sect.
The refining of each Jian Yue Immortal statue is extremely difficult. The Huang Sheng Sect has been inherited for more than four thousand years. After more than four thousand years of hard work, these thirty Jian Yue Immortal statues were created. To see the foundation and strength of a sect that cultivates immortals, you only need to observe how many statues of Immortal Jian Yue the sect has, and you will basically not go wrong.
Taoist Jinshan is extremely strict in his management of Gaoyang Taoist Temple disciples. Maintain the image of Gaoyang Taoist Temple as approachable and responsive. Make Gaoyang Taoist Temple more popular and establish a good reputation among the people.
Jinshan Taoist acted like this because he was instructed by the sect. There are as many as 1.5 million believers in Gaoyang City, but the number is still far too small. You must know that a third-grade Jian Yue Immortal statue can control up to two million Jian Yue spirit pendants at the same time, and the Jian Yue Immortal statue in Gaoyang Temple has always been in an unsaturated state.
Huang Shengzong has been thinking of ways to increase the population of Gaoyang City. He ordered the Gaocang court to reduce taxes, build new houses in the city, and expand the roads leading to the surrounding areas.
The population of Gaoyang City currently exceeds two million, and it needs to increase its population by nearly one million, with the total population reaching three million in order to reach the predetermined goal. It's just that the Gao Cang Country is in a remote area and progress is very slow.
Huang Shengzong thought about forcibly moving a large number of people to Gaoyang City, but finally gave up on this decision. It's not that Huang Shengzong can't do it, it's because Gaoyang City is too barren to support the sudden increase of millions of civilians.
If a large number of people are forcibly relocated, it will inevitably cause the people of Gaoyang City to fall into chaos, hunger, and pain, and the sect will lose their support, which will not be worth the gain.
There is no other way. Huang Shengzong can only vigorously develop agriculture and commerce in Gaoyang City, making Gaoyang City more prosperous and slowly increasing the total population of Gaoyang City.
Five hundred years ago, when Huang Shengzong built the Gaoyang Taoist Temple and erected the statue of Jian Yuexian in Gaoyang City, the total population of Gaoyang City was only more than one million. Now it has reached more than two million people. Therefore, after a thousand years, it is foreseeable that the total population of Gaoyang City will be more than one million. The population will definitely exceed three million, reaching Huang Shengzong's target.
A small circular magic circle lit up in the corner of the alchemy room, and a figure appeared in the magic circle. It was Zheng Changxin, another foundation-building cultivator of Huang Shengzong stationed in Gaoyang City. Zheng Changxin took a few steps to come to Ji Zhenhai who was sitting cross-legged, his face a little solemn.
"Senior Brother Ji, I just received news that a casual cultivator employed by the sect in Pinghu County was attacked by a murderer. His Dantian was destroyed and his entire body was completely useless." Zheng Changxin said with a sullen face.
"Is this happening?" Ji Zhenhai opened his eyes, stood up and asked, "Who did it?"
"Senior Brother Ji, the news has been confirmed that this is indeed the case. The casual cultivator's name is Ai Yuanmu. He was attacked on the way to Gaoyang City. Two people attacked him, known as the "Two Bears of Tushan" "." Zheng Changxin replied.
"Tushan Erxiong? What are the backgrounds of these two people, and why are they sure that they are responsible?" Ji Zhenhai then asked.
"These two are brothers. One is called Xiong Dayong, who has an eighth-level Qi cultivation level. The other is called Xiong Xiaoyong, who has a seventh-level Qi cultivation level. The two of them are engaged in the business of breaking up families and killing people everywhere. They are called Tushan Er Xiong. Ai Yuanmu saw the true face of Xiong Xiaoyong during the resistance. Tushan Er Xiong had been wanted by the sect for a long time. The junior brother also had the wanted portraits of the two people. According to Ai Yuanmu's description, the junior brother was sure that the murderer must be this one. Tushan Two Bears.”
Zheng Changxin looked angry. The two bears of Tushan often attacked lone cultivators in Gaocang, and Huang Shengzong's arrest warrant was issued.
It's just that the two of them were very cunning and careful, and they were never caught. In fact, it was because the two of them only attacked casual cultivators and did not touch the interests of the Huang Sheng Sect. The sect did not pursue them with much intensity, so the two of them remained at large. This time he dared to rob the casual cultivator hired by the sect, which was simply audacious.
"How is that Ai Yuanmu's injury? Junior Brother Zheng, I seem to have some memories of this person as my brother, but I can't remember who he is." Ji Zhenhai asked with a frown.
"Senior brother, after Ai Yuanmu was seriously injured, he was saved by passers-by and saved his life. However, his Dantian was destroyed, completely terminating his path of cultivation. Senior brother, I remember that two years ago, there was a man who was expelled from the sect. Disciple, come and apply for the position of Heavenly Master." Zheng Changxin said regretfully.
"Brother, I remembered it. It turned out to be this person. What a pitiful person!" Ji Zhenhai remembered after being reminded.
This Ai Yuanmu was originally a disciple of the sect, but because of his poor qualifications, he was expelled from the sect because he did not reach the fourth level of Qi training before the age of eighteen. Two years ago, I applied for the position of Heavenly Master. Because of his special experience, I gave him priority in hiring him.
"Senior Brother Ji, I'm here to say goodbye. We will set off soon. We will bring these audacious Tushan Erxiong to justice. Those who dare to touch the sect are simply seeking death." Zheng Changxin said with his fists.
"No, Junior Brother Zheng, you can't go." Ji Zhenhai quickly objected.
"Why?" Zheng Changxin asked, not expecting Ji Zhenhai to object.
"The Qingke Dan in the Ling Ling Furnace is almost mature and will be released in the next few days. Junior brother, you and I will stay in the alchemy room with my brother for the next few days to prevent any trouble." Ji Zhenhai said worriedly.
"Gaocang City didn't send anyone?" Zheng Changxin asked doubtfully
It turns out that six pills of Qingke Dan are put into Gaoyang City's Soul-restraining Furnace every two months. After two months of nourishment by essence and spiritual power of faith, the finished pill can be formed.
Whenever the Qingke Dan is about to be turned into a finished pill, Gaocang City will send several practitioners in the foundation-building stage to jointly guard the alchemy furnace and escort the harvested finished pills back to Gaocang City. Gao Cang City is the capital of Gao Cang Kingdom. It is also the general stronghold of Huang Sheng Sect in Gao Cang Kingdom. There is also a statue of Jian Yue Immortal.
"The news came from Gaocang City a few days ago, saying that there are important things that cannot be separated for the time being. Let us carefully guard the alchemy furnace and act with caution. After this day, we will come back to collect the Qingke Dan." Ji Zhenhai said helplessly.
Ji Zhenhai was not actually worried about someone coming to snatch the Qingke Pill, because the act of snatching the Qingke Pill was no different from openly declaring war on Huang Shengzong, and it was simply sending someone to his death.
If anyone dares to snatch the Gaoyang Guanqingke Pill, he will face the endless anger of Huang Shengzong and will fight to the death. But in order not to make any mistakes, Ji Zhenhai still hopes that Zheng Changxin can stay in Gaoyang City and guard Gaoyang City with him these days to ensure nothing goes wrong.
