Chapter 516 Blood purification, the magic weapon of destiny
I stayed at the Lujiang League headquarters for a long time and had a brief chat with Yang Zhenren and others.
Lin Shan didn't stay too long and took the people away directly. It was safer to leave the affairs within the alliance to them.
He rushed all the way back to Tianfu Mountain and arrived at his home base camp.
Seeking ancient teachings.
The scale of this sect is getting bigger and bigger now, because the Yang family once donated a lot of resources and industries to each other, and it has already reached a thousand people!
Thousands of people, this number is basically the limit of a sect's virtuous cycle.
To support so many disciples, whether it is spiritual veins, spiritual stones, elixirs, or spiritual materials, piles of consumption are consumed every day.
The key is that there must be enough elders to teach, teach, and even assign tasks so that they can work or go out to practice.
Not enough tasks and no output are equivalent to feeding idle people.
Therefore, cultivation sects generally follow the elite route. Those with poor qualifications and talents are likely to have no value in training, and the large number of people will drag down the sect.
Only the top sects, with many spiritual veins and diverse inheritances, can have the scale of a sect with tens of thousands of people!
In addition, under certain special circumstances, such as when the three demon sects launched a large-scale attack on the Song Dynasty during wartime, they would recruit a large group of cannon fodder for casual cultivators.
Normally, other magicians also have recruitment thresholds.
The Xun Gu Sect, because Lin Shan has firmly established itself as the leader of the Lujiang League and there are two formation masters in the sect, has specially recruited 'fresh graduates' from major academies in the Lu State.
As for why they don’t recruit people from the cultivation world, they want to be ‘fresh graduates’.
Everyone understands this, no need to explain.
Although there are thousands of people in the sect, only one-third of them are permanently stationed in Tianfu Mountain, and most of them are still running tasks outside.
Some followed Mu Yan and Gao Daoda to conquer Chixiao City and Happy Forest, some went to the Lin Chamber of Commerce to open up channels in various places, and some were mining mineral and forestry resources outside.
Of course, there is also the most secretive group of people, personally supervised by the general manager Lu Xiuming, who goes to various places to collect antiques.
When he brought people back, Brother Ji looked up and down Tianfu Mountain.
"The scenery is pretty good, and the spiritual pulse is okay. Why are there so few people and it's deserted?"
The sect in Brother Chicken’s imagination should be one in which the leader raises his arms and responds to the request! The whole place exudes an atmosphere of fanaticism, and the scene is bustling with dark clouds over the city.
Why does the Xun Gu Sect look like a hermit sect that hides from the world?
Lin Shan knew that his territory was still relatively shallow. Whether it was the scenery or the spiritual veins, it certainly could not be compared with the Peacock Royal Family where Brother Ji used to be.
As a second-generation demon, Brother Ji has a high vision and looks down on his own small temple. It is normal.
"You are now out to work alone. In the early stage of founding the religion, you should keep a low profile. Especially in a country like Lu, being too public is simply courting death."
"In the Demonic Kingdom, people who don't like you will also come and beat you up. You must not be arrogant and domineering."
"As the saying goes, build the wall high, accumulate food widely, and claim the throne slowly. Growth is the king's rule. Those big factions that have thousands of years of history above your head are suppressing you. Never cross the line when doing things."
"You can learn from the sect experience I have here. The path traveled by predecessors is definitely more reliable than your own exploration."
Brother Chicken nodded, but the pig-headed monster next to him was not surprised. After all, he was the Hell Demon Commander who led the army, and it seemed that he was no longer interested in such petty fights.
Come to the main hall on the mountain.
Send a message to the higher-ups in the church, and then sit back and wait for these people to come.
After a while.
Master Zhankong, Lu Xiuming, Wu Hanqiao, Li Yuanjie and others came to see him.
"Where is Elder Heiku?"
Not seeing the Black Skeleton Demon Lord, Lin Shan asked casually.
"Reporting to the leader, Elder Heiku is still refining the magic weapon and cannot escape."
As for what magic weapon it takes so much trouble to refine, it is probably his own magic weapon.
"Then don't wait for him. Let me introduce you first. These two are Brother Chicken and Pig-headed Monster. They are the two latest young masters of the demon clan that I have brought. You can lead them around the church more and get familiar with them. Let’s talk about the operation and organizational structure of the sect!”
Lin Shan introduced them to them first. After all, he didn't have time to take these two guys around, and he would have to let his subordinates help them get familiar with them in the future.
Brother Chicken folds his wings across his chest and makes a salute:
"Ji Wuque, I have met you all."
The pig-headed monster covers its face with its ears and also bows:
"The pig is strong and the hyena is polite."
Everyone was shocked and speechless.
A monster that can speak human words, isn't it the Yuanying Stage Demon King?
Lin Shan explained, saying that this is his friend in the demon clan, not a demon king. You just need to treat him well, without any slights.
Master Zhankong and others were quite surprised when they saw the monster salute, but they still returned the gift seriously and said their names.
After some familiarity and understanding, let’s get to the point.
During the time Lin Shan was away, there were basically no changes. The Xun Gu Sect mainly focused on development.
After Master Zhankong stabilized the realm of the golden elixir stage, he began to recruit apprentices of formation masters and built up a large grassroots team.
The bad debts of the Lin Chamber of Commerce in the periphery of the Lujiang River Basin were forcibly recovered by various forces in the Lujiang League due to the strategy of decentralizing sub-agents.
Those deadbeats were under too much pressure and could not resist the entire Lujiang League's debt collection. They suffered heavy losses all of a sudden.
The territory of Ginkgo Cave Houer Wine on the other side of the Cliff Forbidden Area has gradually opened up the market in Western Shandong and has become another business of the family.
Lin Shan then took out the seeds of the spiritual flowers and spiritual grasses he had obtained from Queen Jianjia's garden in the Luosong Mountains, and left it to his subordinates to manage the specific operations.
Anyway, the spirit stones he earned were basically used to maintain the operation of the Xun Gu Sect. He had killed so many powerful enemies along the way, and he no longer needed such things as spirit stones.
The sect needs to feed thousands of people, and the cost is not small.
The reason for forming a force is nothing more than to run errands and collect intelligence for yourself. As long as you can be self-sufficient, it is also very worry-free to have talents under your command.
"Currently, the leader of the pastoral hall and the leader of the Gao family in the north are at a deadlock, and they are still fighting openly and secretly with the people sent by the merchants of the Cultivation family."
Lu Xiuming reported the matter again, and finally talked about the affairs of Chixiao City and Happy Forest.
Lin Shan nodded noncommittally. He had already heard from Yang Zhenren at the Lujiang League headquarters and had no intention of learning more about the specific situation.
"Let them make their own decisions. Whatever support is needed, you can take care of it within the church. I will be in seclusion for a period of time. You can lead the two young demon masters to familiarize themselves with the environment."
After entrusting the chicken brother and the pig-headed monster to him, he turned around and became the hands-off shopkeeper.
Lu Xiuming asked cautiously:
"Then how long will your retreat last?"
"At least ten years will be the minimum, and there will be no upper limit at most. If you encounter something that cannot be resolved, just let Elder Heiku and Elder Zhankong make the decision. There is no need to come to me."
Lin Shan gave Master Zhankong a look of affirmation, and the latter nodded to him to express that he could rest assured.
Then, everything was in order.
Lin Shan broke up the palace meeting and returned to his secret practice room alone.
Brother Ji jumped directly onto Lu Xiuming's shoulder and started chattering with questions. Everyone walked out chatting.
In the clean secret room, light the condensing incense. Returning to the old nest, without fear of external threats, I can finally rest assured to improve myself in seclusion.
Lin Shan was the first to take out the Lotus Seeds, a treasure given to him by the Red Lotus Ancestor in the red maple forest.
The three demon kings of the Luosong Mountains also told them to use it as soon as possible and not to expose it to others. This shows how valuable this thing is.
Moreover, the enhancement panel has identified a sixth-level spiritual object for the first time. Naturally, this kind of treasure must be used as soon as possible and transformed into one's own strength.
The prerequisite for being a spiritual body is blood purification.
First, increasing the blood concentration related to the wind system in your body is equivalent to enhancing your wind system talent in disguise, which will also greatly speed up your early practice.
If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools.
Improving your talents first and then practicing will definitely save some time.
This lotus seed is protected by a reinforced panel, so you don't have to worry about safety issues. Just hold it in your hand and just refine it.
This refining time took about three days and three nights.
The hibiscus seeds in his hand disappeared, and the blood all over his body had turned light blue, mixed with little green light flowing through the meridians, illuminating all the internal organs.
At this time, I feel the wind spirit energy between heaven and earth again, and I feel extremely clear and sharp, more than twice as good as before!
You know, he also had a first-class wind spirit root before!
Now regarding the talent of the wind system, I am afraid that it is already considered to be the best in this lower world.
"The bloodline is all purified, and the qualifications are equivalent to the superposition of first-class spiritual roots. How terrible must the qualifications of a real spiritual body be?"
Lin Shan couldn't help but sigh. He previously thought that his first-class spiritual root qualifications could see all the mountains and small mountains at a glance, but he found that there were still steps on top, which was not something to be proud of.
There are people in the network, there is a sky outside the sky, and every mountain is higher than the other.
And my good eldest brother, Young Master Jiuyou, has become a spiritual body. In addition, he is also a second-generation rich man. His cultivation speed is probably not slower than his own!
"Brother, I really don't know what it will be like next time we meet."
Lin Shan felt a sense of urgency in his heart, an urgency to become stronger quickly.
Because he is making progress, others are also making progress.
The world does not revolve around anyone, the general trend is moving forward, and geniuses are also growing rapidly.
Cultivation is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat.
Just at this moment, there was an announcement outside the cave.
Soon, a small square box was handed in from outside, along with a transmission note.
"Brother, your destiny magic weapon has been made for you. Fortunately, you have lived up to your destiny! Don't forget my reward."
The voice of the Black Skeleton Demon Lord came from inside, and it is not difficult to imagine the humble look of asking for credit and reward when it spoke.
Lin Shan did not rush to reply, but opened the box first and prepared to inspect the goods.
The interior is cushioned with soft silk, and a hollow four-cornered pavilion stands there quietly with two floors of eaves, and a plaque "Fengbo Pavilion" hanging on the top and under the eaves.
Small and exquisite, square and two inches in size.
Picking up the pavilion and holding it in the palm of your hand, the yellow afterglow outside the window makes it feel full of ancient charm.
【Fengbo Pavilion】
Quality: Magic Weapon
Introduction: Thirty-six forbidden magic weapons, a multi-functional magic weapon, made of Dingfeng Bead and Dian Cangshi Mother as the main materials, integrating defense, assistance and suppression.
(Special effects: Fixed storm)
Strengthening requirements: 64 points
With the introduction of the enhanced panel, Lin Shan immediately had a clue and understood that he was about to undergo all-round improvement.
The natal soul treasure ‘Soul-Slaying Blade’ is the ultimate killing weapon, and the natal magic treasure ‘Fengbo Pavilion’ is a multi-functional auxiliary. Once both are successfully nourished and bound to oneself, the strength will definitely be different from before!
It is also understandable that the special effect of this natal magic weapon, 'Fixing Wind Waves', is probably inherited from the fifth-level spiritual material 'Fixing Wind Bead'.
Wandering around in various storms is a useful function for special occasions. It is dispensable in daily life and is suitable for extreme environments.
After playing with it for a long time, Lin Shan sent it into the Dantian.
"Not bad."
Overall, I am very satisfied. With the addition of two super-class spiritual materials, it is absolutely top-notch among the top magic weapons. It is estimated that it will not be far behind even when faced with ancient treasures.
Thirty-six magic prohibitions, logically speaking, it takes seventy-two years to maintain, but with the current quality of mana and soul power, the first-grade golden elixir and the eighty-one orifice soul elixir, the maintenance only takes a quarter of the time.
Just eighteen years.
If you can break through to the middle stage of the golden elixir early within this period of time, you can shorten it again.
He took out a transmission talisman and entered a response into it.
"Well done. Next, help me find an elixir that can break through the bottleneck of the early golden elixir stage. Send it over as soon as possible after you find it. The reward will be announced after I leave seclusion."
Then, this transmission note went directly through the wall and disappeared.
other end.
Tianfu Mountain, the Weapon Refining Hall.
The Black Skull Demon Lord was wandering around the sword washing pool, waiting for Lin Shan's reply. He was walking back and forth in a dizzying manner, while Master Zhankong on the side was still chattering to persuade him.
There were only two of them in the whole hall.
"I now have nearly a hundred formation apprentices under my command, many of whom are newly recruited high-achieving graduates of the academy. They are extremely malleable. Elder Heiku, you should choose some belts!"
"I don't have time. Didn't you see that I was busy? I just finished my work!"
"Our formation cannot support us alone. We often need our subordinates to help us lay out the formation base and bury the formation materials, or even sit in the formation and obey orders. It's time to train a few more teams."
"No need, I'm not interested in Labanti."
The Black Skull Demon Lord was preoccupied with Lin Shanyue, and was very impatient with Master Zhankong's nonsense, but he was too embarrassed to chase him away.
It wanted to say loudly that it was different from other formation mages. It had an army of skeletons to command like an arm, and it didn't need the help of apprentices to set up and control the formation.
However, I cannot reveal my identity, so I can only prevaricate here.
Master Zhankong cannot understand that no matter how skillful the formation master is, if you don't have apprentices to help you, how can you be so busy alone?
Besides, don’t you still have the skill of refining weapons?
"Elder Hei Ku, I will help you with the formation apprentice first. Do you want a weapon refiner? There must be servants to do the chores for you! Pull the bellows, quench, grind, polish, and so on."
"No, no, no, you don't need any of this! I am enough!"
The Black Skeleton Demon Lord was extremely annoyed and anxious.
Just at this time, a transmission note flew in from outside, burning brightly in front of it, and Lin Shan's voice came completely.
"Well done. Next, help me find an elixir that can break through the bottleneck of the early golden elixir stage. Send it over as soon as possible after you find it. The reward will be announced after I leave seclusion."
