Another distinguished guest came to the Taoist Dharma Conference, which immediately made Miyun Mountain shine. Many real people are also looking forward to the sermon of the immortal in Dongyang Mountain.
Wang Shizhou was surrounded by everyone and felt what it felt like to feel at home.
However, while Miyun Mountain was bustling with activity, the atmosphere in Qingyang Kingdom, tens of thousands of miles away, had gradually become solemn.
green hills.
This mountain was originally the most famous mountain in Qingyang Kingdom, and was occupied by Qingshan Pavilion, the largest immortal sect force in the country, as the sect's residence.
But all this was completely changed early this morning.
From the perspective of many ordinary disciples of Qingshan Pavilion, a true immortal from Taiping Dao entered this place without warning and announced that he would take over the entire Qingshan Pavilion.
Faced with this matter, the headmaster and many elders of his family did not resist at all, and accepted it very obediently and cooperatively.
the reason is simple.
In addition to the Taiping Dao True Immortal who came, the Golden Womb Sect's headmaster also came with him and expressed his support for Taiping Dao.
As we all know, Qingshan Pavilion is an independent celestial sect in name, but in reality it is a branch of the Golden Embryo Sect, which is equivalent to an unrecognized annex.
Jinteimen and Qingshan Pavilion are two families that belong to the same family.
Now the Jintai Sect, as the sect, does not oppose or stop this matter. As a vassal, Qingshan Pavilion has lost its biggest supporter, so what can it do if it opposes it?
Faced with the heavy pressure from the two behemoths of Taipingdao and Jintai Sect, a small immortal sect huddled within a country really has no room for opposition.
Since you can't resist, you can only accept it.
But in fact, many Qingshan Pavilion disciples, and even the elders and masters, did not have much resistance to their sect being absorbed by Taiping Dao, and were even happy to see it.
Think about it.
Being the elder of the Immortal Sect in a small area, you look majestic, surrounded by hundreds of disciples, and are arrogant.
This looks good, but only on the surface.
In fact, there is a golden womb gate on the top of Qingshan Pavilion. It cannot act independently in any external diplomacy and needs to seek instructions from above.
Qingshan Pavilion is essentially just a puppet.
Forget it.
If the Jintai Sect sends a disciple over, no matter how high the other party's cultivation level is, even if it is an inner sect disciple, he will be on a par with the Qingshan Pavilion disciples.
If he is a true disciple, then even the elder of Qingshan Pavilion will be a head shorter than him.
With this current situation, how meaningful can this kind of teaching elder do?
The only advantage may be that as a local snake, if you manage the territory well, you may be able to collect a lot of cultivation materials.
But if you become a disciple of the Immortal Sect, you will also have a fixed quota of cultivation materials every month, but the amount may be less than those of them.
However, in addition to fixed supplies, the disciples of the Immortal Sect also have the powerful skills passed down in the sect, the guidance of true immortals, the higher-quality Cave Paradise, and the status of being a disciple of the Immortal Sect when they are away from home.
Taken together, these are not necessarily worse than the headmaster of a humble immortal sect.
These are just compared with those ordinary immortal sects with only one or two immortals.
If it were the Great Immortal Sect with Earth Immortals, the disparity in treatment would be even worse.
An inner disciple of the Great Immortal Sect, when away from home, has a more valuable status than an elder of an Immortal Sect such as Qingshan Pavilion.
And now, if they join Taiping Dao, then the entire monks in Qingshan Pavilion, from the headmaster to the ordinary disciples, will have the opportunity to change their sect and join the Great Immortal Sect.
For these immortal sects who have taken refuge with their clans, the conditions given by Taipingdao are still very generous.
Those at the level of the head elder, that is, the monks with the Five Qi Chaoyuan cultivation level, can all be given the status of a true disciple.
Those whose cultivation is above the level of condensing three qi will be granted the status of inner disciples.
Those with the following cultivation levels can become registered disciples.
All in all, Taiping Dao has given an organization to the tens of thousands of disciples of Qingshan Pavilion, which is extremely generous.
With this condition, it is no wonder that everyone at Qingshan Pavilion is so enthusiastic about joining Taiping Dao and has no objection at all.
However, although it seemed that in order to peacefully annex Qingyang Kingdom, Taipingdao paid a heavy price and recruited 20,000 monks from Qingshan Pavilion and Fenglei Castle.
But for Taipingdao, the price is actually not high.
First of all, the largest number, the registered disciples who account for more than 99% of the personnel, are not a burden at all to Taiping Dao.
For these people, the treatment is still the same as it was when they were disciples of Qingshan Pavilion and Feng Lei Bao.
At most, it's just that I just joined now and it's war time. Taipingdao just gave out one or two more rewards.
But this is actually nothing to Taipingdao, which has occupied five countries and has massive resources.
It's just a drop in the bucket.
Moreover, these registered disciples are destined to be the biggest cannon fodder in the upcoming war.
When they face those true immortals fighting, hundreds or even thousands of people may die after a single fallout.
Even if you can't meet a true immortal, if you encounter a battle between monks who have condensed three or more qi, or even a large-scale battle between five qi and Chaoyuan monks, the monks who have condensed one or two qi will not be of much use.
The biggest use is to attract firepower, consume the opponent's magical powers, and serve as a weakening and interference.
Once the war begins, these people will be consumed the fastest.
According to Yidan City's estimation, if there is a real war with the Nine Provinces Immortal Sect, it may not take two or three months, and more than 90% of the more than 20,000 registered disciples will die.
In the end, there may only be one or two thousand people left.
Or just leave none at all.
He is still very tolerant of this kind of cannon fodder that is destined to be consumed.
Therefore, after taking over Qingshan Pavilion and Fenglei Castle, he ordered to increase the supply quota for these disciples.
The benefits were increased to three times as much as before.
Anyway, none of these people can live for more than two months. If they distribute their original half-year quotas in these two months in advance, they will have no loss and no additional consumption.
These low-level monks were originally used as cannon fodder during the civil war in Qingyang. Even if they changed their identities as registered disciples of the Great Immortal Sect, they could not escape their fate of cannon fodder.
The reason is very simple. How can the Great Immortal Sect look upon those who are looked down upon by even the humble Immortal Sect?
Even if he accepts it at this time, it will only be out of favor and because he needs to employ people.
When they are used up, these consumables will naturally be gone.
As Lu Yuan's clone, Yi Dancheng naturally inherited the former Chu Emperor's cruelty and looked down upon the loss of human life during battles.
It's just a number, don't worry about it.
The fate of those named disciples was thus arranged.
The treatment for those who have condensed three qi, that is, the inner sect disciples, is different again.
Taiping Dao is currently short of available manpower, and those consumables that condense one or two Qi are useless, so they can be consumed casually.
But for monks who have gathered more than three qi, their strength has risen sharply, and they can barely be used. The treatment is naturally different.
Yidan City also treats them as their own disciples.
There is no shortage of people in Qingyang Kingdom and Damu Kingdom, but Xiaye and Jiuchuan Kingdoms on Cheshi Road are very short of manpower.
Che Shidao has already contacted him and asked Yidan City to keep more capable disciples so that they can be dispatched after the war to help him establish a separate academy system for the two countries.
There is really a shortage of manpower over there, so as long as someone can condense the three qi, he doesn't mind, he wants them all.
They are both clones, and they are also sent out by the original deity to do hard work.
Yidan City and Cheshi Road still share the same hatred and help each other.
Of course he valued his old brother's request.
Therefore, in this battle, Yidan City did not plan to use these inner disciples as cannon fodder, but wanted to retain as many people as possible for future use.
To put it harshly, many of these inner disciples would have died in this battle.
Even if Qingyang Kingdom can be saved in the end, without enough inner disciples, it will be a problem for Yidan City to establish a separate academy system for Qingyang and Damu Kingdoms.
So even if it wasn't for the sake of his brothers, he couldn't let too many people die in order to save himself more worries in the future.
Therefore, regarding the arrangements for these inner disciples, Yidan City only allowed them to be stationed in various important strongholds in Qingyang, huddled in the mountain-protecting formation, and relied on the formation to defend.
Anyway, these ordinary inner disciples could not play a key role in this war.
Hiding in the formation, relying on the power of the formation to gather everyone, five or six inner disciples who have gathered three or four qi, and with hundreds of disciples, may be able to exert the strength of a five-qi Chaoyuan monk.
And if they were released, then without hundreds of condensed three qi, or a dozen condensed four qi, they would not be able to fight against a five-qi cultivator.
The further you go in cultivating immortality, the greater the gap in every major realm will be.
In a war of this scale, the role of these ordinary disciples is really limited, so let's not waste it in such a meaningless manner.
Might as well stay and use it for future security maintenance.
Let them rely on the formation to defend, and they can also play a greater role.
Therefore, in response to this point, Yidan City specially selected hundreds of key nodes of spiritual veins and earth qi in Qingyang. According to each group, one person condenses four qi, five people condenses three qi, and two hundred disciples condense one or two qi. Squad configuration.
Dispatch hundreds of teams to selected nodes, set up altars on the spot, build formations, and set up a defensive and resistance stronghold.
And these hundreds of groups of altars will be connected to form a large formation that covers the entire Qingyang Kingdom. It is called the Ten Thousand Qi Earth Dragon Formation, which can mobilize the earth's energy of the entire country and turn it into dragon veins to protect and kill the enemy.
This is a magic circle that Lu Yuan collected and handed down from the classical books of the Nine Provinces. After he compiled it, it can still be used.
According to the classics, when this formation is set up, according to the three states, the earth energy can transform into a fairy dragon; according to the nine states, the earth energy can transform into the king of dragons.
Immortal dragons are easy to understand, they are just the incarnation of dragon veins with immortal power.
The King of Dragons can also be called the King of Immortals.
In the Kyushu Realm, in the ancient times, the only people who could be kings among the immortals were the Three Emperors and many human emperors who practiced the way of luck.
These people, without exception, are all earthly immortals.
The area and size of the Kyushu Realm, the land of the Three States, is equivalent to a small country on this side of the Immortal Realm.
The land of Kyushu is the size of three small countries.
In other words, the Ten Thousand Qi Earth Dragon Formation deployed by a small country can reach the level of an immortal formation and resist ordinary human immortals.
The Ten Thousand Qi Earth Dragon Formation deployed by the three small countries can resist the Earth Immortal.
The power of this formation is naturally extraordinary.
For Lu Yuan, he also planned to use this as a trump card to gain confidence against the Nine Provinces Immortal Sect.
After all, the formation of the Three Kingdoms can give the camp on the Taiping Road side one more dragon vein formation spirit of the Earth Immortal level.
Although it is limited by the formation, this formation spirit cannot leave the formation and can only move within the area covered by the formation, which is extremely restrictive.
But for Taiping Dao, he does not need to take the initiative, he only needs to defend the existing territory and block the invasion of the Nine Provinces Immortal Sect.
This has only defensive needs, not offensive needs.
Therefore, the flaws of the array spirit are no longer flaws.
In contrast, for Taiping Dao, one more Earth Immortal's combat power can even affect the outcome of the battle.
The importance of this array naturally goes without saying.
Lu Yuan has asked Yidan City to order the establishment of the Ten Thousand Qi Earth Dragon Formation in the three countries to the south and west of the territory controlled by Taiping Dao, namely Qingyang, the two countries directly under Damu, and the Anyu Kingdom where the Golden Titus Sect is located.
It is planned to use the three kingdoms as a basis to form a large formation and transform into a king of dragons.
However, if you want to set up this formation, you need a lot of manpower.
Calculated based on one country’s 100 basis points, the three countries would need 300 basis points.
The base point of this formation, which is a magic altar, requires at least five monks who can condense the three qi and one monk who can condense the morale to maintain its activation.
This is the current configuration of the teams sent out by Yidan City.
However, on top of this standard, he also added two hundred registered disciples who had gathered one or two Qi.
These disciples are actually not of much use.
But he is still a monk who has some magic power and knows basic spells. It can still be done by sending them to various altars to attack.
Even if it's a little darker, it's also a good buffer consumable to bear the backlash of formations at critical moments.
This is also the purpose of Yidan City to assign registered disciples to a team.
The formation is operating to the extreme, which puts a heavy burden on the monks who maintain the nodes of various altars.
The more people to share the burden, the less pressure they will bear.
As for whether the people who come to share the burden can bear it, this is no longer a consideration.
But even based on the minimum configuration, if Taiping Dao is to be filled with 300 altars, it will require at least 300 monks who can condense the four qi, and 1,500 monks who can condense the three qi.
Yidan City has recruited the monks from Qingshan Pavilion and Fenglei Castle and asked them to integrate them. At present, it is just enough to maintain the formation of Qingyang Kingdom.
Although there are still one to two hundred more disciples of the third and fourth qi left, it is not enough to fill up the country of Damu.
There is no need to worry about the Anyu Kingdom where the Golden Fetus Sect is located. The other party has enough disciples to fill the entire domestic Dharma altar.
But other than that, there isn’t much room to support other areas.
The Dharma altar of Damu Kingdom is still vacant.
In this regard, Lu Yuan could only ask Yi Danchen to send extra manpower to Damu Country to build the altar that could be built first.
Then he issued recruitment orders to the two vassal sects, Bihu Palace and Xuangui Mountain.
From these two immortal sects, enough people have been drawn.
This is a war that affects the entire southern region. We can't let Taiping Dao and Jin Timen fight all the battles. There is no such reason.
The Bihu Palace and Xuanguishan families must also shoulder their responsibilities and help share the pressure together.
This is only reasonable.
