Chapter 658 The Patriarch’s Decision
At this time, Lin Shihua and the two heard Lin Tianyun’s explanation, and they knew in their hearts what the appearance of the fourth-order monster insect in Helan Country meant.
Especially Lin Shigong, who is still in shock at this moment.
It wasn't that he wasn't calm enough, but the news of the appearance of the fourth-order monster insect was more shocking to him than the news of the spiritual stone vein with large-scale reserves.
After all, the strength of the fourth-order monster insect is comparable to that of a Yuanying monk.
There are only a few strong people in the Nascent Soul stage in the entire Qingzhou land. Each of them is a super strong person standing at the top of Qingzhou, and there is a powerful force behind them to support them.
With such strength and background, it goes without saying that the influence brought by the Yuanying monks goes without saying.
However, it is really incredible that such a monster insect, which is comparable to the Yuanying monk, happens to appear in the barren Helan country.
Fortunately, this fourth-order monster insect is still sleeping, and there seems to be no sign of going out to attack the human race.
Otherwise, if a fourth-level demonic insect madly attacks the human monks and slaughters them without any scruples, judging from the strength of the monks from the Helan Kingdom and the Golden Crow Kingdom, even if they unite, it will be impossible. An unstoppable situation.
Without support, these two countries are likely to be severely damaged, or even destroyed.
The more this happened, the more Lin Shihua and others understood how threatening this fourth-order monster insect was.
And this threat is not only to the Helan Kingdom and the Golden Crow Kingdom, but also the entire seven southern countries of Qingzhou, are all under the potential threat of the fourth-order monster insects.
In this way, combined with the unknown size of the spiritual stone vein, it is no wonder that during this period of time, Golden Elixir monks have been frequently appearing in the Quicksand Wasteland.
But what is strange is that none of the golden elixir monks who appeared after going to the Quicksand Wasteland did not take action, and their disciples only stayed there.
In addition to worrying about waking up this fourth-order monster insect, they should have other reasons for doing this.
The simplest possibility is that these forces want to take control of this spirit stone vein.
After all, the involvement of a spirit stone vein is not small. Even the smallest micro spirit stone vein can unearth low-grade spirit stones worth millions.
The spirit stone vein discovered in the Quicksand Wasteland, according to Lin Tianyun, is at least a small vein.
There is even a high probability that it is a medium-sized spirit stone vein.
Taking a step back, if it was just a small spiritual stone mine, it would have a profit of at least 30 million low-grade spiritual stones.
If it were really a medium-sized spirit stone vein, the income would increase several times.
Faced with such close-at-hand interests, I am afraid that no neighboring country or Jindan force will want to give up and will try their best to get a share of the pie.
But under the current situation, even if a Jindan force wants to swallow it, it is by no means an easy task.
The simplest reason is that once one force takes action, it will inevitably be blocked by other forces.
What's more important is that if the fourth-order monster insect doesn't leave or is dealt with, no one will dare to take action.
Otherwise, once the fourth-level demonic insect is awakened, those who go to dig up the spirit stones, regardless of their cultivation level, as long as they are below the Nascent Soul stage, will definitely have a narrow escape from death.
Moreover, many forces around the Quicksand Wasteland will also suffer.
Understanding the benefits and disadvantages involved, Lin Shihua almost understood the causes and consequences of this incident.
Next, as the head of the Lin family, he needs to weigh the pros and cons and see if the Lin family wants to get involved.
Thinking of this, Lin Shihua looked at Lin Tianyun and then asked.
"Tianyun, what kind of monster is that fourth-level monster?"
"Besides that, what are the views and actions of those forces on this spirit stone vein?"
< br>Hearing the inquiry, Lin Tianyun paused and then replied: "Clan leader, this junior has carefully investigated and determined that the fourth-order monster insect is the Earth Armored Dragon."
"The Earth Armored Dragon!"
After hearing this statement, Lin Shihua said lightly, and his expression softened significantly.
Because he knows that monsters like the Earth Armored Dragon are relatively docile and usually spend most of their time sleeping.
What’s even more special is that the Earth Armored Dragon is very talented and has a very long lifespan, and generally does not need to swallow heavenly materials and earthly treasures. It just needs to find a place with abundant spiritual energy as a The cave can grow.
If the cave you find is rich in spiritual energy, the speed and efficiency of the armored dragon's growth and advancement will be twice the result with half the effort.
As for the appearance of an armored dragon in the Quicksand Wasteland, it is probably because of the spirit stone veins.
In addition, the Earth Armored Dragon itself has sensitive perception and is proficient in the art of escaping from the earth. Being able to find a treasure land with a spirit stone vein as a cave is just an instinct brought by its talent.
In this way, it is reasonable for a fourth-level Ankylosaurus to appear in a barren land such as the Quicksand Wasteland.
Knowing all these factors, Lin Shihua was no longer shocked by the news of the appearance of Ankylosaurus in the Quicksand Wasteland.
At this time, Lin Tianyun also saw Lin Shihua's face, and knew in his heart that Lin Shihua must have thought of the living habits of the armored dragon.
Relying on these factors, Lin Shihua no longer cares so much about the reason for the appearance of Di Ankylosaurus.
However, as the head of the Lin family, Lin Shihua is most concerned about whether there are opportunities and conditions to obtain enough benefits for the Lin family.
Knowing this, Lin Tianyun continued to speak: "Clan leader, Tianyun stayed in the Quicksand Wasteland for a while, and also got a lot of real information."
"Among these , among the seven golden elixir forces in the southern part of Qingzhou, almost most of them sent varying amounts of forces to the Quicksand Wasteland to gather information, and some of their forces were left behind. Stationed locally."
"Especially Helan Country and Jinwu Country, the two countries closest to the Quicksand Wasteland, have the fastest response, and every disciple of the Jindan force has appeared locally."
< br>"And several other countries, such as the Xitang Kingdom, are almost absent, and almost the entire seven countries in the southern part of Qingzhou are involved."
"Including our three golden elixir forces from the Wei Kingdom, they also participated in the exploration team."
"After these people appeared in the Quicksand Wasteland, they all went to the specific locations to check. If nothing else, they should have discovered After learning about the existence of the armored dragon, all the people from these forces were stationed and did not fight easily. Disturbing the Ankylosaurus's slumber."
"In addition to fearing that the Ankylosaurus would wake up, it also plays a role in the deterrence of other forces."
"Furthermore, being able to appear in the local area. The minimum level of cultivators is the late stage of foundation building. Such people are not stupid, and they also know what it means once the armored dragon wakes up."
"What's more, the most powerful Jindan forces are stationed nearby, always deterring those who have evil intentions."
"As time passed, an order was gradually formed, and no one took action. The plan, and no one came forward to negotiate, seems to be testing the temperament of some people who are ready to make a move."
Lin Tianyun explained in great detail, telling Lin Shihua and Lin everything about what he had seen and heard in the past few months. .
Lin Shihua also expected this situation. In his opinion, these forces are all afraid of each other, and no one wants to be taken advantage of, let alone the food of the armored dragon.
Under such circumstances, no one would dare to take action rashly before many forces reached a unanimous agreement.
If someone is really desperate to take action, not to mention the retaliatory attack when the Ankylosaurus wakes up, even people from other forces will not let it go.
Because of this, although there are many forces appearing on the Quicksand Wasteland, including quite a few Golden Core cultivators, a certain order has already been formed.
If this continues, it will only be a matter of time before these forces finally come to the negotiation table and decide the ownership and allocation of the spirit stone veins.
Besides this, the existence of this Ankylosaurus is the biggest factor that hinders everyone from mining spiritual stones.
If many forces reach a consensus, they will definitely find a way to join forces to get rid of the armored dragon.
Otherwise, no matter how long they stay, or no matter how many Jindan monks stay in the area, they will not be able to carry out the next step of the plan.
However, it is foreseeable that although the power of this armored dragon is powerful, if it faces the combined forces of the seven countries in southern Qingzhou, it may not be a match for the army of monks.
After all, the Earth Armored Dragon is a race of monsters and a race that prefers defense.
As for the seven countries in the south of Qingzhou, they have nearly thirty golden elixir forces. The total number of golden elixir monks alone is at least more than one hundred.
Among them, there are also some powerful late-stage Jindan monks.
Once all parties decide to take action against the Quicksand Wasteland, it may only take more than a dozen monks at the late stage of the Golden Core to join forces and cooperate with some formations or some consumable treasures to subdue or kill them. Ankylosaurus.
Therefore, although the Earth Armored Dragon is powerful, no one force dares to deal with it alone.
But once the monks from all parties join forces, it is not difficult to defeat the armored dragon.
Under such a situation, if the Lin family wants to get a piece of the pie, they must send a force to garrison in the Quicksand Wasteland as soon as possible.
In addition, if conditions permit, one must play a role in killing the Ankylosaurus.
Only the Lin family takes action. When the benefits are distributed, the Lin family can get part of the benefits.
Understanding this, Lin Shihua immediately asked Lin Shigong and Lin Tianyun if they had different opinions on the Lin family's next plan.
If the two of them thought that the Lin family needed to get through this troubled water, he would also ask other senior members of the Lin family for instructions.
Especially if Lin Shikang and Lin Shilu have no objections, then the Lin family will be involved in the chaos over the Quicksand Wasteland.
At this moment, Lin Shigong also expressed his opinions.
The two of them have almost the same attitude, that is, the Lin family needs to get through this muddy water.
The reason for being so decisive is mainly because the current Lin family is no longer what it used to be.
The simplest point is that even if the Lin family leaves aside Lin Tianming and his wife, there are already several people in the Golden Core stage.
And this does not include guest Qing Hu Yuan and Ye Pinghai, who is half of the Lin family.
Among our own people, it has been decades since Lin Shikang and Lin Shilu entered the golden elixir stage.
Now, the cultivation of both of them has reached the peak of the early stage of Jindan, and they are only one step away from the middle stage of Jindan.
In addition, Lin Tianyun's own cultivation is also at the peak of the early stage of the Golden Core, but his strength is already comparable to that of a monk in the middle stage of the Golden Core.
In addition to the three of them, Lin Xingrong and Lin Xingzhi also used the elixir-forming spiritual objects brought back by Lin Tianming from Tianlong Pavilion a few years ago to successfully break through the golden elixir stage.
At present, the realm of the two of them has been stabilized. The offensive and defensive magic weapons have also been refined with the help of Lin Shilu. They have successfully refined them individually and have a certain degree of combat effectiveness.
Under such circumstances, the Lin family currently has seven Jindan combatants in the clan.
Coupled with the existence of the Soul-eating Spider, the Lin family's strength is even more powerful.
Such a lineup, even excluding Lin Tianming and his wife, is almost worthy of the Zhenyang Sect, a veteran force that has been passed down for nearly ten thousand years.
What’s more important is that a year ago, news of the civil war in the immortal world of Jinfeng Kingdom spread throughout the world of immortals.
Lin Tianming and his wife have not returned to the family for many years, and there has been little news or trace during this period.
Until the news of Jinfeng's civil war swept across the land of Qingzhou, Lin Tianming's name became even more prominent.
As the family behind Lin Tianming, the Lin family naturally learned the news, and also learned about Lin Tianming's terrifying strength and achievements.
Including Lin Tianfeng, who had disappeared for a long time, and several others have now appeared with Lin Tianming, and they have all entered the Golden Core stage.
Among them, Lin Tianhu is very powerful, almost as strong as an ordinary monk in the middle stage of the Golden Core.
At first, when the senior leaders of the Lin family heard the news, they were not only shocked, but also uncontrollably ecstatic.
As for the reason, it was not only the traces and achievements of Lin Tianming and his wife, but also the reasons of Lin Tianhu and others.
You know, the two of them have disappeared for so many years, and there has been no news during this period.
Now he has finally appeared, and his cultivation has surpassed that of most Lin family members, and he has successfully entered the golden elixir stage.
If we include them, the Lin family today has far surpassed the Zhenyang Sect and Wanyao Valley who are also in the Wei Kingdom.
Even some of the Jindan forces in the southern center of Qingzhou are not as powerful as the Lin family today.
With such strength as the confidence, Lin Shihua and the other two people would be so decisive in joining the team fighting for the spirit stone veins.
And they know in their hearts that the Lin family has not obtained a large amount of resources for many years since the end of the Wei Civil War.
As the overall strength of the Lin family increases, they control more and more territory, and the size of the Lin family is also growing.
Up to now, the basic welfare of the Lin family is still improving.
Doing this requires a lot of resource support. Without some foundation, it will not be sustainable at all.
In this way, if the Lin family wants to continue to develop and remain competitive, they must find ways to expand the family's income.
Before this, Lin Tianming had always contributed the most to the Lin family, and it was not a long-term solution if this continued.
For these reasons, Lin Shihua, as the head of the Lin family, made a decisive decision to take action after comprehensive consideration of some causes, consequences and interests.
