The conversations between several people on the road could not be hidden from Ning Tao's investigation.
Ning Tao was not angry about this.
There is never any shame in relying on the strong.
Even I have done similar things before.
Ning Tao did not mention their bad deeds in the past. As long as he could do good things for himself in the future, these would be nothing.
.....
After these people left, Ning Tao continued to explore the spiritual veins of this place.
According to the information obtained by Ning Tao's soul search, Nanhai Island's spiritual veins are quite good, reaching the level of seventh-level low-grade.
It seems that the original master Pan Liu really didn't leave much behind.
While Ning Tao was exploring the direction of the spiritual veins, some more people arrived, and Ning Tao sent them to the nearby area to inform the monks here that the South China Sea Island had now changed and asked them to inform them.
...
Half a day later, a tall mountain peak was shrouded in mist.
The previous monk named Feng Bao came outside the fog.
He waved his hand and shot a yellow light towards the mist, and then a roar sounded in the mist, and the dense white mist kept rolling.
"Ah ah ah, Feng Bao, you dare to provoke me, you want to die!"
Hearing this, Feng Bao didn't show the slightest fear on his face. He crossed his arms and stood a hundred feet away from the mist, quietly waiting for something.
After a while, a sinister old man wearing a black robe and thinning hair flew out of the mist.
There were several pale green skulls flying around, their jaws opening and closing, making strange sounds.
"You little brat, will you be able to sit on an equal footing with me after you advance to the realm of void refining? I want you to eat Gua Luo today!"
The bald old man said this angrily and wanted to take action against Feng Bao.
Before he could take action, he heard Feng Bao frantically say something that surprised him.
"Hmph, Master Li Gui, I don't have the time to fight with you. Today, I have received orders from my master, Lord Qinghuo Sword, to rush to Dianluan Palace as quickly as possible and obey my master's instructions!"
Feng Baohuan crossed his arms and said these words arrogantly. The arrogant look in his eyes made the evil master suspicious.
"Who is the Qinghuo Sword Lord? Where is the Marquis of Nanhai!"
"Huh, Marquis of Nanhai, Marquis of Nanhai has long been the soul of my master. Don't blame me for not reminding you. Set off quickly, otherwise the master will blame you. I think you should prepare for falling into reincarnation as soon as possible! By the way, Transformation God The monks above are going to see my master, so you can take care of yourself!"
After saying this, Feng Bao paid no attention to the changing expression on Master Li Gui's face and turned into a light and disappeared.
The same thing is happening within tens of thousands of miles around Nanhai Island.
Everyone was very curious about the Green Fire Sword Lord who could kill the perfect monk.
What kind of monk is it that has such ability?
However, everyone is used to this matter, after all, this kind of thing happens often around them.
But since I was practicing near the South China Sea Island, most monks couldn't give up their entire family fortune.
After some speculation, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to meet the new leader of Nanhai Island.
...
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed, and nearly a hundred monks have gathered in front of Dianluan Palace.
Most of these monks are god-transforming monks, and only seven or eight virtual-refining monks exist.
Previously, there were about a dozen Void Refining monks on this island.
However, several of them followed Nanhai Marquis to Bishui Island and were directly killed by Ning Tao.
Facing this person whom he has never met before, his cultivation is profound and far surpasses his own and others' combined power.
These monks did not dare to go any further and stood there quietly, waiting for something.
On this day, Feng Bao, who went to inform the monks nearby, returned with several strange monks. After landing, he quickly came to Ning Tao.
"Master, the monks nearby have been notified. You see..."
After hearing this, Ning Tao slowly opened his eyes and waved his hand to signal Feng Bao to retreat.
Upon seeing this, Feng Bao saluted respectfully and immediately stepped aside.
Ning Tao glanced at all the monks present expressionlessly.
The cold light in their eyes made these monks feel cold and tremble all over.
Then he saw the Netherworld Orb flying out of Ning Tao's wrist, flying into the air, and turning into fourteen huge skeleton ghost heads surrounded by ghostly aura.
These skeleton ghost heads wantonly released the tyrannical pressure on their bodies, making shrill ghost roars one after another.
The monks on the field who saw this scene had horrified expressions on their faces. Some thought that Ning Tao was going to attack them and others, and killed them all on the spot.
Some have seen the strength of Marquis Nanhai, and when they see these skeletons and ghost heads, they automatically lead others to compare.
It was discovered that each of these skeleton ghost heads had a strength equivalent to that of the Marquis of Nanhai. As for Ning Tao's own strength, he wondered whether this person was a newly promoted Mahayana master.
After simply giving these monks a warning, Ning Tao spoke to the monks on the field.
"My name is Qinghuo Sword Lord. I am a combined Dzogchen monk. I am only one step away from advancing to the Mahayana realm. From now on, this South China Sea Island will be under my jurisdiction. Do you have any objections?"
How dare the many monks who heard Ning Tao's question dare to object? At this juncture, whoever steps forward to object is not an old lady who eats arsenic because she thinks she will live too long?
Ning Tao looked around at everyone.
"Okay, since there are no dissatisfied people, I will tell you three rules on the island in the future!"
"First, all monks on Nanhai Island are prohibited from fighting privately or colluding with other forces. Any violators will be killed. A platform of life and death will be set up. If there is any conflict, go to the platform!"
"Second, all the minerals, spiritual lands, spiritual veins, and markets on the island belong to the island. The monks can receive corresponding remuneration according to the various tasks assigned on the island, rent and purchase caves, spiritual lands, and shops. Anyone who obeys the rules will be killed!”
"Third, you are not allowed to slaughter mortals wantonly. But if mortals dare to humiliate monks, you can punish them on your own! Once you find any of you slaughtering mortals wantonly, kill them!"
Three words of "kill" in a row made everyone's hearts tremble, knowing that the new island owner in front of them was not an easy character to get along with.
Seeing everyone's awe and fear, Ning Tao nodded and his tone turned to a relatively gentle tone.
"In the future, there will be law enforcement halls, mission halls, preaching halls, exchange halls, etc. on the island. At that time, you will complete various tasks released on the island and obtain corresponding contribution points, or pay enough spiritual stones and spiritual crystals. You can exchange it for corresponding treasures!"
"I have always been rewarded and punished. I will not take responsibility for any evil things you have done in the past. However, everyone on this South China Sea Island must learn to abide by the rules in the future. Anyone who dares to disobey is violating my will. Now I’ll give you a chance to leave. If you don’t want to leave and stay on the island, you must abide by the rules on the island!”
Ning Tao, who had said this, looked around at everyone again.
"If you can't accept these rules, you can leave now. I will never stop you!"
At this time, an old monk asked tremblingly.
"I dare to ask the island master, if there are any techniques practiced by the Void Refining Monk and the Fusion Monk in this preaching hall!"
Ning Tao had some impressions of this old Void Refining cultivator when searching for his soul.
It seems that he was originally a servant of Master Panliu, but he was not taken seriously by the Marquis of Nanhai.
Now he is close to the limit of his lifespan, and he has a small family behind him.
"You must be Master Panluo's servant!"
"Ah, I don't mean to offend, please don't blame the island owner, please don't blame the island owner!"
When the old man heard Ning Tao's words, he couldn't help being frightened, and he quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.
"It doesn't matter. I don't care about your origin. As long as you sincerely submit to me in the future, let's forget the past!"
"Thank you, island owner, thank you island owner!"
"I have a lot of secrets in my private collection. I even have skills that can be cultivated to the Mahayana realm. They will be filled into the preaching hall later. What skills, magic weapons, elixirs, heavenly materials, and earthly treasures you have in your hands can also be put in it. According to the preciousness of the skills you provide, you can get corresponding contribution points and exchange them for your favorite treasures and skills!"
"Besides, I am a seventh-level high-level alchemist. I am quite experienced in refining some low-level realm-breaking elixirs!"
"Is it true, Island Master, uh, Island Master, please forgive me, I'm a bit unscrupulous in my words, please don't blame me!"
The old Void Refining monks looked excited when they heard this. For monks like them, what they lack most are skills and realm-breaking elixirs.
Unexpectedly, Ning Tao is not only a Dzogchen monk, but also a rare alchemist. Being able to practice under such a monk is a great opportunity for everyone.
So after hearing Ning Tao's words, everyone started discussing among themselves.
"Please be silent!"
At this time, Feng Bao, who was standing not far away and maintaining order, immediately glared at the monks on the field and shouted like a dog.
Many monks who knew Feng Bao well saw him like this, and in their hearts they despised and envied him.
Unexpectedly, this guy has climbed to the top of the powerful Qinghuo Sword Lord early, and is envied by everyone.
"It doesn't matter, I will forgive you this time,"
Ning Tao said with a smile when he heard this, which made everyone feel that the island owner was not as strict as he appeared.
"In some time, Fairy Lanxin from Bishui Island will join us on South Sea Island. From now on, when I am not on the island, Fairy Lanxin will be the main one!"
"I will obey the decree of the island master!"
"Feng Bao, take these Void Refining cultivators on the island to formulate a mechanism for the island and come up with a charter. When Lan Xin and the others arrive, remember to inform me!
"Yes, Island Master, I will definitely do my best to fulfill the Island Master's decree and not let the Island Master down!"
"Well, okay, you can go down for now!"
After saying this, Ning Tao waved his hands to everyone, and then his body disappeared after a wave of waves.
Seeing Ning Tao leaving, everyone quickly bowed to Ning Tao and respectfully sent Ning Tao off.
...
After Ning Tao's figure disappeared, everyone felt that the pressure on their bodies suddenly decreased.
At this time, Feng Bao looked around at everyone and said with a smile.
"Everyone, this place was originally the palace of the Marquis of Nanhai. We'd better not stay here for a long time and find a place. Let's hurry up and draw up a charter and submit it to the island owner for review!"
