Chapter 74 The Power of the Ice Formation

But this honey must be collected anyway. Long Xuan looked at the fist-sized queen bee in his palm, coughed lightly, and said amiably: "Bingbing, you said your relatives have lived in my medicine garden for so long, it's time to pay taxes."

"This medicine garden is mine, they live in my medicine garden, do you think they should pay taxes?"

"All the spiritual medicines here are planted by me with great effort, and all the pollen they collected is mine. Since they took my things, should they pay taxes?"

"Their beehives are affected by my cold ice. The formation protects us from natural enemies. It is 100% safe to live here. Should we pay the protection tax? "

"I have carefully calculated it for you. What are the scenery tax, safety tax, drinking water tax, single tax, honey tax, income tax, property tax, property tax, protection tax, head tax, breathing tax, sunbathing tax, living and working tax, land value-added tax, farmland occupation tax, environmental protection tax..."

Long Xuan counted the tax types by counting his fingers, and finally found that ten fingers were not enough, so he had to give up.

"Okay! I can think of these for now, and I will add more later. "

"These taxes are not much. Each household only needs to hand in half of the honey every month. "

"You go and collect taxes from every household now. Whoever dares to resist the tax will not be given royal jelly in the future. "

Long Xuan pointed excitedly, and suddenly his expression froze, wondering if the collection was a bit harsh.

Those spirit bees love honey like their lives. Collecting their honey is like taking their lives. They won't be forced to rebel.

Don't let Bingbing overthrow her right after she succeeded to the position of queen bee.

He thought that since he wanted to develop the number of ice bees in large quantities and make them form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, he must leave them with sufficient food. The more food, the faster they reproduce.

What's more, he is just one person with a limited appetite. He can't eat so much honey. It would be a complete waste to ask for too much.

Considering these three points, Long Xuan changed his idea of ​​​​adding 50% tax rate and planned to only charge 20%, and let Bingbing handle the tax collection.

Bingbing seemed to be very interested in collecting honey from door to door. He swallowed hard and couldn't wait to do it.

With the suppression of the queen bee's bloodline and the coercion and inducement of royal jelly, all the spirit bees surrendered obediently.

There is no peasant uprising in the world of spirit beasts. Long Xuan is totally overthinking.

But what he didn't expect was that this clever little ghost dared to go against his will and collect twice as much honey. As for the extra honey, it moved all the honey to its own home.

If Long Xuan knew what it did, he would be angry to death.

After successfully collecting the honey, Long Xuan was in a good mood. He immediately made a cup of honey water, and used the Ice God Flame to make some crushed ice and put it into the honey water, and drank it lightly.

After drinking the cool honey water, he immediately felt a coolness all over his body. The sweetness was mixed with the fragrance of flowers, and it was cold and delicious. How could it be described with just one word?

The honey made from the fourth-grade pollen was indeed delicious and did not disappoint Long Xuan. After drinking a cup, he immediately showed an intoxicated expression.

"This is life, a cup of honey water, happy like a fairy!"

"Sure enough! Nowhere is more comfortable than staying at home, and no place is more safe than staying at home." Long Xuan raised the cup and sighed.

However, just as he finished speaking, the Ice Formation suddenly shook wildly, as if it was hit by something.

Long Xuan was startled by this sudden change, and his sigh was interrupted.

What happened? We just said that it was safe to stay at home. How could there be danger if we didn't go anywhere? Could it be that a meteorite would fall from the sky? Long Xuan was shocked.

At this moment, the killing formation of the Ice Formation seemed to be triggered by something, and one ice-blue fireball after another flew out of the sky and hit the distance.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Long Xuan only felt the sound of fireballs whistling in his ears one after another. Countless fireballs flew over his head. In an instant, it was like fire in the sky, and they hit the outside of the formation crazily.

Soon, there was a sound of bombardment outside the formation, and the dense explosions were endless, as if it was bombarded by eight artillery regiments in succession, and the earth was shaking crazily.

"Is this Shulia firepower?" Seeing this horrible scene, Long Xuan was stunned.

Although he was the one who set up this ice formation, he did not expect that the firepower of the ice formation would be so strong. This was the first time that the killing formation was activated, and it was also the first time that he saw the attack power of the ice formation.

Long Xuan immediately ran in the direction of the fireball bombardment. When he ran to the edge of the formation, he saw a group of spirit beasts attacking his medicine garden. He finally understood what was going on.

Although the beast tide had been intercepted by the Gu Xiu coalition, it was impossible to intercept it 100%.

From time to time, small groups of beasts still passed through the defense line and went deep into the back of the human world.

Now there is news of spirit beasts slaughtering villages.

Obviously, this group of beasts should be the fish that slipped through the front line. After passing through the heavy defense lines, they went deep into the hinterland and prepared to plunder Dashi Village.

However, Long Xuan's medicine garden was just in front of Dashi Village, which happened to be the only way for the spirit beast army.

So his medicine garden would naturally be attacked fiercely by the spirit beast army. The spirit beasts seemed to want to wipe out this stronghold. This was really a disaster from the sky. It was not even safe to stay at home.

Is this considered as warding off disaster for Dashi Village?

Long Xuan was stunned, but even though his medicine garden was being attacked by a large army of spirit beasts, he was not panicked at all.

In this world, the strength of Gu cultivators and the power of formations are completely unequal.

Although he is just a small Gu cultivator in the Gathering Spirit Stage, the Ice Formation is far from the attack power of Gu cultivators in the Gathering Spirit Stage.

If the attack power of the formation is equal to the Gu cultivator's own realm, how dare Master Jin settle down in the wild, and how dare Emperor Xin settle down in the prairie?

The formation with the attack power of the Gathering Spirit Stage will never give them such a great sense of security.

Long Xuan's formation inherited Master Jin's cave protection formation, plus the Ice Divine Flame as the treasure of the formation eye, the power has doubled several times out of thin air. How can an ordinary group of beasts attack it?

Looking at the firepower in the sky is enough to see how strong the attack power of this formation is.

"You can't just take down my great ice formation if you want to. You really overestimate your own abilities. You've messed with the wrong people! You're done!"

Looking at the army of spirit beasts that were attacking the formation, Long Xuan showed a look of disdain.

The fireballs in the sky were like rain, and the dense rain of fireballs hit the beasts fiercely, and the screams of spirit beasts came from the beasts.

The ground was full of unextinguished cold flames. The spirit beasts engulfed by the cold flames were either burned to death or turned into ice sculptures.

The thin spirit armor on their bodies was useless, just like paper, and the cold flames could easily burn through them.

What power is the Ice God Flame? It is far superior to Long Xuan's Fiery Palm. Once you are hit by the Ice God Flame head-on, don't say you are a first-level peak spirit beast, even if you are a beast king, you will die.

It was also bad luck for this army of spirit beasts. They accidentally entered such a fierce formation. It was a bloody misfortune for eight lifetimes...

This group of beasts was about 500 in size, and there were quite a lot of them. Moreover, there were all kinds of spirit beasts, even the air force flying in the sky. It was a ragtag army.

However, the firepower of the ice formation was too strong, and this number of beasts was not enough.

Dense fireballs bombarded the center of the beast group, pouring down on the heads of the beast group one after another. In a blink of an eye, most of the spirit beast army was killed or injured, and all the spirit beasts were stunned.

Even the flying spirit beasts in the sky could not escape the bad luck. The dense fireballs were like anti-aircraft missiles, sweeping wildly in the sky.

The flying spirit beasts dodged flexibly, dodging one, and then dodging the second... but they could not dodge the tenth one after all.

After being hit by the fireball, they screamed, and their bodies were wrapped in blue fire. They fell from the sky and hit the ground heavily.

If you are lucky, you will hit a ground beast directly on its back, and the beast will be burned to death.

The scene is simply a purgatory on earth. The sky and the ground are full of fire. There is no place to step. The fire falls on the ground for a long time, burning feet everywhere, and the screams of beasts are everywhere.

This army of beasts suffered heavy losses in just one encounter. I don’t know how many beasts died in the sea of ​​fire. The scene is horrible.

When the army of beasts found that this was a forbidden area that could not be attacked, it was too late to escape.

The attack range of the killing array is extremely large, and the firepower is too strong. Even if the remaining beasts flee frantically, they will die in large numbers. It is unknown how long it will take to escape the attack range of the killing array.

In the end, there were corpses all over the ground. Only a few dozen beasts were lucky enough to escape. The rest of the entire army died here. It was miserable.

After the beasts died, the fireballs finally stopped pouring, and the formation slowly operated, returning to its original calm appearance.

If there were no animal corpses and a sea of ​​fire here, telling what had just happened here, it would be hard to imagine that this place had just experienced a tragic battle, and this stable formation could actually have such a terrifying lethality.

Long Xuan couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. The terrifying scene of the sea of ​​fire in the sky just now was too visually impactful. It was simply spectacular to the extreme, even more powerful than the special effects of a blockbuster movie, and he was very addicted to it.

After taking a deep breath, his eyes showed excitement and he quickly rushed out of the formation.

There were 500 animal corpses outside, but the materials were left on the ground. This time he made a fortune.

You must know that his ice divine flame is different from normal flames. Normal flames will burn the spirit beasts, leaving nothing behind, and the spirit insects parasitic in the body will also be burned to death.

But his ice divine flame is different. Most of the creatures burned by the ice divine flame will turn into ice sculptures, and the animal materials will be completely preserved.

Moreover, the frozen animal meat can last for a long time without spoiling. He can sell the animal meat to Qian's Restaurant and make a small fortune.

There are 500 animal carcasses here. Even if he only sells the animal meat, he will make a fortune.

Long Xuan was overjoyed and called a group of clones to go back and get a large number of storage bags, and then began to pick up treasures all over the ground.

There were a full 500 animal carcasses, some big and some small. He would have to pick them up for half a day, and he didn't know if the storage bags were enough.

When Long Xuan stuffed an elephant into the storage bag, he saw the ice sculptures closest to him, and he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

"Hey! Isn't this the beast king in the legend? Are you guys okay?"

Long Xuan laughed loudly, and after seeing what species the beast king in the ice sculpture was, his eyes lit up and his smile became even stronger.

Good guy, this tiger king turned out to be a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Although the Overlord Tiger had abnormal defensive power, it still couldn't withstand the damage of the Ice Divine Flame. It was killed instantly before it could display its full abilities. Its death was really unfair.

The most important thing is that after this year, Yan's clone has almost collected the best spiritual insects and best animal materials needed for the Dragon Gu Gu Recipe.

He only needs a best spiritual insect about tigers and a tiger king animal material.

His Gu Recipe only needs a tiger king's paw body part to completely puzzle into a dragon.

And what you want comes, the tiger king animal material that Yan's clone has not collected for a long time actually came to his door.

Not only did he deliver a perfect tiger paw, but coincidentally, there happened to be a best spiritual insect in its spiritual core.

With two best materials in hand at the same time, all the most difficult materials to collect in the Dragon Gu Gu Recipe are completely collected.

Although the remaining materials of all sizes are huge in number, they can all be bought with spirit stones, so there is no need to worry.

In other words, when he created the Dragon Gu Gu Recipe, he could refine the Gu on the same day, which is simply amazing efficiency.

At first, he was still worried about how to collect so many best materials, and whether it would take ten years to collect them all.

He never expected that the materials would be ready before the Gu Recipe was created. It's really unpredictable.

The elephant was really heavy. After putting it into the storage bag, he felt a little tired. So, as usual, he gave all the dirty work to his clones, letting them exercise and supervising their exercise.

After putting the tiger king who turned into an ice sculpture into the storage bag, he showed a smug smile again. There were really a lot of happy things today.

However, just as he was walking towards the medicine garden, his sight that had moved suddenly looked back at the place he had just seen.

He couldn't help rubbing his eyes, looking at that place again, his face changed instantly.

"Fuck! Where are my spirit stones!"

Long Xuan was completely confused, and ran quickly to the center of the formation, and hurriedly touched the empty air with his hand.

This is the backup energy source of the formation. There are obviously mountains of spirit stones piled up to provide energy for the formation to operate, but now it is empty, not even half a spirit stone.

"Where are my spirit stones! I have a huge spirit mountain!"

Long Xuan was about to collapse, how could he still have the smug smile just now.

At this time, he had to recognize a terrible fact. People must believe in science and the law of conservation of energy.

The more terrifying the attack power generated by the formation, the more energy is naturally needed to create this terrifying attack power.

Just now, the sky was like fire, which was quite exciting to watch, but in fact, the energy consumption was also exciting. The attack power and energy consumption are completely positively correlated.

If it is not as he expected, the reserve energy of the formation seems to have been used up after the previous round of bombardment.

This is a tragedy, and joy turns to sorrow.

Things will turn to the opposite extreme. If the power of the formation is too great, it may not be a good thing.

It seems that he has harvested 500 beast materials without any effort, but if the consumption of the formation is counted, he may not earn much.

Just now, the power was obviously excessive, causing too much unnecessary waste.

It was also the first time that he was inexperienced and negligent. Sometimes he really couldn't let the formation handle it automatically.

There are three sources of energy for the formation. One is the spiritual power from nature. The formation absorbs the spiritual power in the air every moment to maintain the daily consumption of the formation, so that the formation is always running.

The second source is the spiritual power reserve at the center of the formation, which is also the place where the spiritual stones are stored. Each formation must store a large amount of spiritual stones here. The higher the level of the spiritual stones, the better. Of course, if there is a higher-level energy source, it will be even better.

If the spiritual power in the air cannot sustain the consumption of the formation, then the formation will mobilize the spiritual power of the spiritual stones here.

The third source of energy is the treasure from the eye of the formation. The energy level of this third energy source is the highest, which is related to the highest attack power of the formation and the upper limit of the formation, and can provide the formation with the most powerful power.

When the killing formation is activated, the energy consumption will inevitably increase. The thin spiritual power in the air is definitely not enough, and the spiritual stones in the reserve must be used.

Just now, the sky was like a fire, and the energy consumption was not large, which would be a ghost.

It is normal for the spiritual stones to be exhausted...
