Immortal Palace Longevity
Chapter 391: Secret Transaction
The victory in the gambling battle greatly boosted our own morale.
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Qiushui, Leng Yuexin, Meng Wenxing and other foundation-building monks all stared at each other closely.
The body secretly tensed up to prevent the other party from turning against him at this moment.
But if I say fear, it is much less than before.
After all, the opponent has no formation cover at this time, and the strength of our team leader exceeds that of the opponent's team leader.
Even if there is a conflict, our side is still on the side with absolute advantage.
A complicated look flashed in Zhuo Mengzhen's eyes. After weighing the pros and cons, he could only reply:
"Since fellow Taoist Qingyang is so impatient, it might as well be cashing in on the bet now."
As the leader of the team, she still has a strong attitude when facing her opponents, but underneath her apparent strength, there is a sense of helplessness.
After all, this is a world where strength speaks for itself. When one's own strength is not as good as the other's, and one's own strength is also not as good as the other's, there is really not much room for choice.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuo can think so, Liu is very pleased."
"I hope nothing will happen again that would make both parties unhappy."
"Otherwise, the sword has no eyes, and it will inevitably become harmonious, and then it will not end well."
Liu Yu said coldly with a serious face, and there was a hint of threat in his words, and he was not polite at all at this time.
In the face of real interests, any hypocritical politeness is useless.
What's more, at this point, both sides can be said to have torn away the fig leaf, and there is no need to talk about what is and is not.
Zhuo Mengzhen's face turned extremely ugly when he heard this, and veins appeared on the palms of his yellow clothes, but then he could only loosen his grip.
Now that they are falling out, the chance of winning is less than 30%. Of course she will not do such a stupid thing.
After Liu Yu finished speaking, regardless of what the other cultivators thought, he casually ordered Zhao Mingcheng of the Zhao family to still leave the Liujin Stone Mine to the Zhao family for management.
The team cannot stay here for a long time, and there are not enough manpower now. Naturally, most of the resource points can only be handed over to the local immortal cultivating families or forces.
After the battle of Yan Kingdom is over, the sect will send monks to accept it.
Of course, in order to prevent these cultivating families and forces from taking advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune, it is indispensable to send out sect disciples to supervise.
With the support of Yuanyang Sect, even if only one Qi Refining Stage monk is sent, it is enough to supervise the operation of resource points and at least have a certain say.
After Liu Yu's words were spoken, although Zhuo Mengzhen and his party were "returning home", in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, they could only stand where they were.
I just felt a little restless and felt extremely uncomfortable.
If we take this opportunity to launch an attack, we really have a chance to kill them all and swallow up all the opponent's territory at a relatively small cost.
However, behind the opponent is Hehuanmen, and occupying it does not mean that it can be digested.
If you really want to make such a move at this time, the sect may not necessarily be on your side. Not only will you get no credit, but you may be severely punished.
Moreover, the interests of the sect are not equal to his own interests, so Liu Yu would naturally not do such a thing.
He is happy to see the sect grow, but he will never sacrifice his own interests to help the sect.
Although Liu Yu rarely manages specific chores, Jiang Qiushui reports to him every once in a while, so it is not unfamiliar to him.
Under the temporary arrangement, although it is not perfect, it is still in good order.
In a short while, the matter regarding the Liujin stone veins had been properly arranged.
"Yes, I will obey the order of fellow Taoist Qingyang."
"Thank you Taoist fellow for giving the Zhao family another chance to make meritorious deeds. The Zhao family will definitely go all out to live up to the high expectations of fellow Taoist Qingyang."
Zhao Mingcheng walked over, bent deeply and spoke sincerely.
He is also willing to hand over the mine to the Zhao family, which means that he really does not intend to hold the Zhao family responsible for the loss of the mine.
This made his anxious heart finally calm down. At the same time, he was truly moved and secretly vowed to take good care of the mine.
As the saying goes, "A scholar dies for a confidant." The leader's ability to understand the Zhao family's difficulties is truly valuable in today's turbulent world of immortality.
A team leader who can be considerate of his subordinates is indeed worthy of loyalty.
"Okay, let's go down and make arrangements."
Liu Yu waved his hand and said casually.
Of course, he didn't know what Zhao Mingcheng was thinking. This move was just like "buying horse bones for a thousand dollars" and was purely for show.
"As you command!"
Zhao Mingcheng accepted the order respectfully, and then hurriedly walked towards the mine with the Zhao family monks. It seemed that he couldn't wait to show off.
Because there was no real full-scale war, the mine was relatively well-preserved as a whole, and the thousands of mortals inside were generally safe and sound. At this time, some people quietly poked their heads out.
Soon, there were scoldings.
No matter who is the owner of this mine, they must start working normally and their fate will not change in any way.
"Let's go, Fellow Daoist Zhuo."
"Those three resource points are close to the Liujin Stone Mine, only a few dozen miles away. The handover can be completed today."
Liu Yu withdrew her gaze and said a few words to Zhuo Mengzhen.
Then, without waiting for the woman to respond, he took out the Guiyuan boat and ordered his monks to board the boat.
On the same spot, Zhuo Mengzhen's expression changed.
As proud as she was, she had never been so slighted before, and she felt a strong sense of shame in her heart.
But what the outcome was, she would never forget this monk who made her so embarrassed and failed her.
"Senior Sister Zhuo~"
Seeing that the senior sister was standing there motionless, the pink-skirted female cultivator whispered a reminder, but dared not say more.
Today, she finally understood what it felt like to accompany the emperor like a tiger.
Zhuo Mengzhen woke up with a start, and after a cold snort, he also took out the flying magic weapon of the Hehuan Sect.
It was a black flying boat, the whole body was bright yellow, and the appearance was much more refined than the Guiyuan Boat, but the overall difference was only in color and logo.
Limited by the degree of known immortal cultivation and refining skills, the Guiyuan Boat model was almost the most reasonable structure for this type of customized large flying magic weapon.
It was not that it could not be modified, but compared with the cost of modification, it was a bit uneconomical.
After all, this was just a special and top-grade magic weapon for transporting cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage. Even the escape speed of cultivators in the early stage of foundation building could not match it, so it was not worth spending so much money to modify it.
This was also related to the overall level of immortal cultivation civilization in the Nine Nations Alliance and even the Tiannan Immortal Cultivation World.
The glory of the ancient times was eventually buried with time.
Today's cultivators can only imagine the most prosperous period of the immortal civilization from the few words in the ancient books!
The special flying boat magic weapon of the Hehuan Sect is called "Yin Yang Boat", which means "wonderful yin and yang", and this name is very consistent with the style of its sect.
Looking at the rising "Yin Yang Boat", Liu Yu's thoughts were wandering, and for some reason he thought of the ancient times again.
He shook his head, put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, and used the spell to control the Guiyuan Boat to fly towards the nearest resource point.
The three resource points as the "bet" of the gambling fight were certainly not randomly selected.
They are all adjacent to the territory of their own team, adjacent to the Liujin stone vein, and convenient for management.
If you only look at the value, there are more resource points to choose from, but so what, it doesn't make any sense.
If the "enclave" is not adjacent to the territory, it is extremely difficult to manage, and even if you get it, you can't really own it.
Maybe the monks sent to manage the area will "mysteriously die" in a few days, and there will be no news, and they will eventually fall into the hands of the Hehuan Sect.
Only resource points bordering the territory can truly form effective control and reduce management costs.
The three resource points are all within 50 miles of the Liujin Stone Mine. The "Guiyuan Boat" and the "Yin Yang Boat" did not fly for long before they arrived at their destination.
The first resource point is "Jinhua Mountain Spiritual Medicine Garden".
Two spiritual boats, one red and one black, stopped at the same time above the second-level spiritual mountain Jinhua Mountain.
The huge movement also alarmed the garrisoned monks in the Spiritual Medicine Garden. Soon, the protective formation of the Spiritual Medicine Garden was activated, and they seemed very vigilant.
The facts are in front of them and cannot be changed. Procrastination will make them look like they can't afford to lose.
Soon, Zhuo Mengzhen sent a female monk in a pink skirt to negotiate and called out all the monks in the Spiritual Medicine Garden.
After some arrangements, all the monks in the Spiritual Medicine Garden boarded the Yin Yang Boat, and the formation was dismantled and taken away.
Liu Yu didn't care. This was normal. After all, the bet only stipulated the resource points, and the formation was private property and no longer within the scope of the bet.
Given the relationship between the two parties, the other party certainly didn't want to "aid the enemy".
Seeing that all the cultivators of the Hehuan Sect had withdrawn from the Jinhua Mountain Spiritual Medicine Garden, Liu Yu arranged a local small sect to take care of it at the suggestion of Jiang Qiushui.
This kind of small spiritual medicine garden had been plundered once when the Hehuan Sect took over, and it was impossible for it to have any oil and water.
Among them, the mature or rare spiritual herbs had long been transferred away or entered the pockets of the cultivators. Liu Yu was not interested in going in to "visit" or "inspect the goods".
The foundation-building cultivators of the small sect happily accepted the order and received a set of second-level inferior formations from Jiang Qiushui, and quickly left the flying boat with more than a dozen Qi Refining cultivators in their sect.
From then on, they were responsible for guarding this spiritual medicine garden.
In order to prevent the cultivators from coveting, any resource point must have a means of protection, which is mostly a formation.
After taking the resource points from Baiyun Temple, the original formations could not be used, but at least they needed to be modified to prevent enemy monks from sneaking in unknowingly.
But how rare are the monks who understand the way of formations?
It was precisely because of various considerations that the sect later prepared ten sets of second-level formations for each team for emergency use.
Second-level formations are very rare for ordinary monks, but for large sects like Yuanyang Sect, it is much simpler.
However, in order to prevent corruption, each set of these second-level formations must be reported to the sect after the use, and the supervising monks will be sent to check afterwards.
But there are so many resource points along the way that ten sets of second-level formations are certainly not enough. In normal times, they are still reported to the sect, and the sect will send monks to arrange them.
Only when encountering precious resource points or special situations will the ten sets of second-level formations issued in advance be used.
The current situation is undoubtedly a special one. The newly acquired resource point is directly adjacent to the territory of the Hehuan Sect. Without the protection of the formation, the garrisoned monks will not feel at ease.
And one day, there may be a change of ownership.
Jiang Qiushui watched the formation being quickly installed, and the spiritual light quickly lit up to cover the medicine garden. He nodded with satisfaction and painted the Jinhua Mountain Spiritual Medicine Garden in light red on the map.
The territory occupied by the main force of the sect is red, and the territory occupied by the team is light red.
As this stroke fell, the light red area suddenly expanded outward, and another small piece was added.
Jinhua Mountain is the only second-level spiritual mountain and resource point within a radius of more than ten miles.
According to the rules agreed upon during the war, the territory was divided according to the resource points of the cultivation world.
Not only the Jinhua Mountain Spiritual Medicine Garden belonged to the Yuanyang Sect, but also the dozens of miles around Jinhua Mountain belonged to the Yuanyang Sect.
Including but not limited to land, mortals, cities, etc.
Liu Yu withdrew his eyes from Jinhua Mountain, cast a few spells to control the Guiyuan Boat, and headed for the next resource point.
Without any delay, the purpose was very clear.
But at this time, the "Yin Yang Boat" was dragging its feet and moving very slowly, as if it was very reluctant.
Liu Yu was very patient at this time, controlling the Guiyuan Boat to slow down and lead the way in front, with a very firm attitude.
The foundation-building cultivators and some Qi-refining cultivators stood on the deck. They expanded their territory without using swords and weapons. All the cultivators were quite happy and whispered to each other.
At least, on the surface, that was the case.
The voices were quite noisy, but considering the current situation, Liu Yu did not speak out to stop it.
Suddenly, he looked towards the Yin-Yang Boat without making a sound, and Zhuo Mengzhen also looked over.
There was no need to speak to communicate with spiritual consciousness, and the action of the mouth was just a habit. The two communicated very secretly, and no cultivators discovered it.
Liu Yu thought for a while, turned around and told Jiang Qiushui and Leng Yuexin a few words, asking them to take all the cultivators into the cabin.
Soon, he was the only one left on the deck.
"I came here to make a deal with Daoist Qingyang about the copper vein."
Zhuo Mengzhen drove the spiritual weapon to the deck of the Guiyuan Boat, set up a soundproof shield, and took the initiative to speak without waiting for Liu Yu to speak.
She did not humble herself because of the defeat, and still had the pride of being the direct descendant of the Hehuan Sect.
But this time, her tone was quite polite.
"Oh?"
"This copper vein is worth a lot of money, almost half of the glazed stone vein."
"Can you afford to trade it?"
"Besides, this vein belongs to the sect, and only the sect can decide whether to trade. What if Liu disagrees with the trade?"
Liu Yu smiled and said with a half-smile.
The interests of the sect are not the same as his own interests.
If he could use this copper vein to exchange for some spiritual objects that he could use, he would certainly be willing.
The reason for such an impolite answer is that he doesn't want this woman to take the initiative.
To keep the glazed stone vein and take over two resource points, he has already fulfilled the obligations of a sect disciple.
Liu Yu asked himself that he had lived up to the sect, so he had no guilt in trading the copper vein.
The immortal way values private interests, and his own interests are above everything else!
"I wonder if Daoist Qingyang is interested in the secret technique of movement that I used in the previous fight?"
Zhuo Mengzhen said without any nonsense, and directly threw a yellowed booklet with half of it missing.
"The Secret Technique of Shining Spirit"
