Ji Liao had already anticipated this huge consumption. People were important in a war, but money was not much less important than people.
Nodding, Ji Liao asked, "How are the preparations for the magic crystal now?"
At this time, a pretty figure in the crowd moved and took a step forward, but it was Ai He.
"Back to Demon Boy, after years of accumulation, we have emptied out all the magic crystal veins in Juewuzhou, and now we have a total of 230 million top-level magic crystals."
Everyone gasped again when they heard this.
These people may have been used to the hardships in Juewuzhou, so they were completely confused when they heard this astronomical number. They had no idea that the Yuan Demon Clan had secretly accumulated so many magic crystals in these thousands of years.
In fact, in these thousands of years, the Yuan Demon Clan has never been idle for a moment, almost to the point of crazily amassing money. Secretly, the Yuan Demon Clan has sent many spies to do business in the other three continents, including rich merchants, traders, and pawns. In short, there are all kinds of professions, and among them , the most obvious one is Tianzhou, which travels between the two places once in more than 20 years.
Although this Tianzhou boat crosses the Thunder Sea once every ten years, it transports millions of people at a time. Not to mention the magic crystals sold at the auction, the ticket price alone is an astronomical figure.
"In other words, it is enough to make the formation last for more than twenty years." Ji Liao nodded and said softly.
After pondering for a while, Ji Liao narrowed his eyes slightly and looked around at the hundreds of people in front of him.
There was a cold glimmer in his eyes, a look that should only be seen in hell, making people look at him with fear and chill in their hearts.
"The ugly words are ahead. I don't care how many people you kill. Every five years, you must hand over 50% of the magic crystals you looted from Qidi to support the operation of the all-encompassing array. If not, then don't blame me. Tong is ruthless."
Everyone was shocked.
Turning over 50% of the magic crystal is really too much. After all, magic crystal is a lossy thing. They fight to the death and have to give out 50% of the magic crystal in the end, which means that they will not get much benefit in the end.
However, once the all-encompassing formation is unable to operate, once the formation is broken, and the reinforcements from the mixed demon tribe come in, not to mention whether the only 50% of the magic crystals can be defended, whether even the life can be saved will be a problem. .
Although these more than a hundred people felt unwilling to do so, no one dared to refute.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Ji Liao's lips curled up.
"Since you all have no objections, then this matter is settled. When the war begins in the future, you can pass this news to the next clan members." Ji Liao said.
After pondering for a while, Ji Liao asked again, "How is the layout of the Open Sky Formation going?"
"Uh... Don't worry, sir. The Kaitian Formation has been deployed in more than 600 places, and it can teleport 90% of the Yuan Demon clan members in an instant." Another person stepped forward and replied.
"Ninety percent..." Ji Liao frowned slightly.
Seeing Ji Liao frowning, the man quickly added, "Sir, these 90% are actually the entire combat power of our Yuan Demon Clan, and even the clan members of the third and fourth levels of Naqi are among them. As for the last level, There are only some tribesmen left who have low cultivation and can only transform their true bodies, and have not even opened up the spiritual sea."
After hearing this, Ji Liao's brows relaxed.
This battle is a battle of life and death. Of course, 90% of the combat power can be used, but not 85%. After all, the battlefield is treacherous. Who can guess what direction the situation will develop. If what this man said is true, , then the remaining 10% of the people can almost only come to clean up the battlefield.
Ji Liao nodded, "In that case, let's decide this matter for now. I will contact Tongtian Leihai later. When they are ready, it will be the time for our decisive battle with the hybrid demon tribe."
"decisive battle!"
Just as Ji Liao finished speaking, He Tuo below immediately raised his fist and shouted something.
"decisive battle!"
Soon another person was affected by He Tuo and shouted the same.
"decisive battle!"
"decisive battle!"
"decisive battle!"
The more than a hundred people, regardless of their gender or cultivation level, were all affected by the atmosphere and shouted in unison.
Ji Liao sat calmly on the high platform and looked at the hundreds of people below.
He didn't interrupt, just looked at it calmly.
After a while, when the voice gradually died down, Ji Liao raised the corner of his mouth and said again, "There is still some time before the war starts. Please don't be idle. Let's deduce it together to avoid going wrong."
"Don't worry, Lord Demon Boy, we have rehearsed this battle countless times and already understand it by heart." The man then spoke from below.
Ji Liao shook his head slightly, "I know you have already deduced it, but what I want is not your derivation."
"Ah? How do you deduce it, sir?" He Tuo was stunned for a moment and asked.
At the same time, more than a hundred people in the audience also looked at a loss, not knowing what Ji Liao meant.
"I want you to assume that various emergencies occur. For example, during the battle, the leader of our side was defeated and fell. For example, a large number of Yuan's troops suddenly came from the mixed demon tribe, or the mixed demon tribe reacted very quickly. We The sudden appearance did not cause much commotion among them, and the hybrid demon tribe risked their lives to join together to resist desperately, etc., etc., etc., etc., I want you to seek remedies for these hypothetical accidents, such as fighting for You have to give me a clear idea of where to retreat after the city fails, no matter the details. One method is not enough, you must come up with two or more remedies for each problem."
"This..." He Tuo hesitated after hearing this.
The rest of the people were also stunned at the same time. They had never heard of Ji Liao's method of assuming accidents, and this was the first time they had heard of it.
"This is a major matter of annihilation of the race. We must think of everything. Otherwise, if we are not careful, we will lose everything." Ji Liao said.
More than a hundred people in the field were all old monsters with cultivation levels above the Nascent Soul stage. When Ji Liao said this simply, they immediately understood and felt that Ji Liao's actions made sense, and they all nodded in agreement.
Ji Liao saw that everything here was almost explained, and his body flashed, turning into a blue light, passing through the crowd, and the next moment he was in front of the stone door of the secret room.
He raised his hand and waved, and a piece of green light immediately flew out from his palm. Then he heard a rumble and the door to the secret room opened.
The dimly lit stone road appeared again, and Ji Liao walked up it without looking back.
After a stick of incense, inside the stone building.
Ji Liao sat on the balcony on the second floor, holding a tea cup and sitting on the floor.
In front of him was a low table with a very beautiful teapot on it, with a mist of water rising from the spout.
Ji Liao took a quick breath and looked towards the outside world with a pair of eyes.
At this time, Sanding Mountain had changed its appearance. It was no longer as quiet and peaceful as when he came, and the toppled mountains in the distance could be vaguely seen, looking like they were collapsing.
Ji Liao knew that this was just the beginning. In a few months, the entire Yuan Demon Realm would burst into pieces, blood would flow into rivers, and it would completely turn into a human purgatory.
Suddenly, Ji Liao's eyebrows moved, and he drank all the tea in the tea cup. He turned one hand over, the storage ring on his fingertips flashed slightly, and a token appeared out of thin air.
Ji Liao opened his mouth, and a piece of blue light floated out of his mouth and landed on the token.
But there was a gentle buzzing sound, and the token in Ji Liao's hand immediately shimmered.
"senior..."
Soon, a voice came from the token. It was the croaking daddy, the big toad with perfect Nascent Soul.
"How are the preparations going?" Ji Liao asked directly.
"A total of 80% of the creatures in Tongtian Leihai are willing to support the Yuanmo clan. Among them are twelve seniors at the God Refining stage, 700 Taoist friends at the Nascent Soul stage, and countless juniors who are building the Golden Core Foundation, almost three thousand. Let’s make more people.”
"That's enough." Ji Liao nodded.
The number of people involved in the Tongtian Leihai was not much different from what Ji Liao expected. In this way, the strength of their two clans combined was not much different from Qidi's.
"Senior, when will the war begin? Now our creatures from the Thunder Sea are gathering towards the edge of the Thunder Sea." The voice of the big toad came from the token.
"How long will it take for you to assemble?"
"This...about a month."
"One month is enough. After you are assembled, you will immediately cross the edge of the Thunder Sea and go straight to the nearest Kuanglei City. You must establish a foothold in Qidi as quickly as possible."
"Senior, didn't you start the fight first and then we join in?"
Ji Liao held the tea cup, smiled slightly, moved his thin lips slightly, and then continued after a quick sip, "I have my own arrangements."
"If we are the first to attack, the Qidi monks will attack with all their strength, and the casualties will be huge. I will not be able to explain to my colleagues at that time. Senior, you..."
"Okay..." before the big toad could finish his words, Ji Liao interrupted, "You only need to resist for five days, and we will fall from the sky."
"Five days..." The big toad's hesitant voice came from the token.
"Why can't you, the creatures in the Thunderous Sea, resist even for five days?" Ji Liao raised his eyebrows.
"This... well, senior, don't break your promise, this is a life-threatening matter." The big toad hesitated.
"Hahaha, Ji never breaks his promise." Ji Liao said, then waved his hand and put away the token.
"Jade Bodhi: It's 700 chapters. Congratulations to myself, and thanks to my friends who have been with me. I will update one chapter at a time, and then I will be able to completely resume updating in a few days."
