My construction materials are weird

“Dao, Dao, Dao Soldier Pool?”

Yan Lai quickly squeezed forward, stammering.

“Is it really a Dao Soldier Pool?”

“When did it appear? How come we didn't know?”

“Did the Mystic Master announce it?”

“It seems not. We've been in the Black Gold Battlefield recently and didn't discover a Dao Soldier Pool.”

Ji Zhongfu cautiously asked, “May I ask, fellow Daoists, what is this?”

To be honest, he had never heard of a Dao Soldier Pool.

Even though the previous Divine Demon Great World was very powerful, it wasn't that they had everything the main world had; there were deviations.

Although each world has the same destination and purpose, there are differences in the path of development and growth.

Just now, Ji Zhongfu was purely curious and, being of high cultivation, saw the stone tablet covered by fluctuations at the first moment, but he really didn't know it would cause such a big reaction from the four.

He glanced at his hundred subordinates, who all shook their heads, indicating they had never heard of it either.

Therefore, Ji Zhongfu inquired.

How should I put it? He had already regarded himself as a Qingyun Mountain cultivator, so he was also very curious.

“Of course, our mythology is just imagination, after all, we were previously a world devoid of spiritual energy.”

Ji Zhongfu nodded to show he understood, asking him to continue.

Jiu Tong continued, “The so-called Dao Soldier Pool is based on cultivators…”

After some explanation, Ji Zhongfu understood that Dao Soldiers were stronger than puppets and ordinary enslavement methods.

They could also progress with their master and were Dao Soldiers that could grow with their master.

Dao Soldiers, soldiers protecting the Dao.

“Could it be that the Mystic Master set it up when we were征战征战 the Black Gold Secret Realm, but just didn't tell us before?” Sun Hui guessed.

He couldn't help but feel delighted, after all, this Dao Soldier Pool was at his doorstep. Even if they couldn't monopolize it, it would be much more convenient for their own use.

“It should be.” Yan Lai ignored Sun Hui's happiness and instead speculated, “This is a Wood element Dao Soldier Pool. Do you think there might be other Five Elements, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth?”

“Huh?” Jiu Tong let out a soft exclamation.

Saying, “That's really possible. The Martial Dao Alliance is located in the east, which belongs to Wood, so here is the Wood element Dao Soldier Pool. Then wouldn't the Daoist's location in the south have the Fire element Dao Soldier Pool, the monks' location in the west have the Metal element Dao Soldier Pool, Yan Lai's fellow Daoist's location in the north have the Water element Dao Soldier Pool, and the center have the Earth element Dao Soldier Pool?”

“Check and you'll know. Go and take a look.” Yan Lai immediately took action.

He told the Confucian disciples to quickly go and take a look. If there were any, they would leave here. If there was only one Wood element Dao Soldier Pool in front of their door, then they would have to talk to Sun Hui.

Even though it was at your doorstep, it was for public use and couldn't be monopolized just because it was at your doorstep.

Of course, Sun Hui wouldn't dare to monopolize it. The more powerful the Four Greats, the more cautious they had to be.

It might be okay for individuals and small forces, but the actions of large forces were being watched.

Moreover, yesterday, in order to win over the Eight Greats, the Four Greats also said they would be fair and just.

“Yes!” The Confucian disciples quickly left.

At the same time, several great monks following Minghui, and several old Daoists following Jiu Tong, also quickly left to check their respective locations.

“Let's continue walking and continue introducing the Qingyun Mountain to Clan Leader Ji.” Sun Hui said with a glint in his eyes.

“Ahem, Clan Leader Ji's matter isn't urgent, let's wait a while, wait a while.” Yan Lai said.

“Amitabha!”

“Infinite Life Buddha!”

The old Daoist Jiu Tong and the great monk Minghui also didn't move.

Ji Zhongfu found it interesting.

Good heavens, they've already started fighting internally. How interesting.

Just saying, how could the Four Greats unite? Even if he didn't understand the Four Greats, being not from this world.

But at least he was human.

If you are a person, you have the same characteristics.

If you are a force, you also have the same characteristics. This is a matter of people's hearts, which no one can avoid.

Just now, he was still wondering why the Four Greats were so united. Even though the pressure he brought was not small, the four major forces lived on the same mountain and in the same holy land. Shouldn't there be any contradictions?

Now it seems they can't avoid the mundane either. The appearance of a Dao Soldier Pool has actually resolved the situation of him being besieged.

Too interesting.

Ji Zhongfu also didn't speak. His overly difficult life made him very able to suppress laughter, so he didn't laugh out loud, as if he hadn't seen anything.

For example, Sun Hui's eyes were blazing, looking at his three old rivals.

His eyes seemed to be saying: There are outsiders here, we must be united against the outside, we can't lose face.

But the gazes of Yan Lai and the others were also saying: You bear with it, it's three against one.

Since this was the case, Sun Hui felt that he could only use his ultimate move.

However, he didn't forget the bottom line.

Therefore, he stopped glaring at the three old friends and instead said to Ji Zhongfu, “Clan Leader Ji, you've seen Qingyun Mountain as well. Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, you must have a clear idea of the strength of Qingyun Mountain and its bright future, right?”

“Thank you for the introduction, everyone. Ji has a clear idea.”

Sun Hui then asked, “That's good. Now that things have come to this, let's be frank. How do you plan to integrate into Qingyun Mountain?”

Sun Hui inherited the genes of a reckless warrior and asked directly.

Yan Lai was very depressed when he heard this, thinking that there was no need to be so anxious, they could take their time, this was too reckless.

Originally, everyone decided that Yan Lai would be the host, and the communication and exploration with the Divine Demon World would be planned by him.

But he seemed a little long-winded and hadn't gotten to the point yet.

It just so happened that the three joined hands to give Sun Hui a little color, and Sun Hui planned to ask directly, finishing the question sooner rather than later.

There were still many things to do.

Tomorrow, the main force of the Black Gold Secret Realm would return and would jointly report the battle situation to the Mystic Master.

They would also select the person and force with the most contributions, and these were all very important tasks.

What's more, the Dao Soldier Pool had appeared, and they also needed to seize the time to study it and, preferably, conceive Dao Soldiers as soon as possible.

With so many things waiting, he didn't want to entangle with Ji Zhongfu and asked directly.

Upon hearing this, Ji Zhongfu first looked at his hundred subordinates.

His subordinates cast trusting glances.

Ji Zhongfu nodded and said, "Let me explain what kind of group we are… As you can see, we are a group that huddles together for warmth and ekes out a living. Therefore, many of us used to belong to other forces…"

"Although we can't be completely the same as the main world, we also have identities such as Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, and martial arts. There are also some previous sects, as well as descendants of aristocratic families. In short, we are a motley crew."

"I'm telling the four sect leaders this to tell you that there's no need to be nervous. We can put aside our previous grievances and band together for survival in difficult and dangerous times. However, it's impossible to continue to band together like this when we get to the main world. People's hearts will change, and you should all understand this."

Ji Zhongfu spoke very realistically.

Not one mistake, one song, one hair, one inside, one appearance, one look!

This is actually why he was willing to resign from the position of clan leader.

True feelings are revealed in times of adversity. It's possible to share hardship, but it's difficult to share wealth.

Don't look at how miserable they are now, but if they still maintain such a force in the main world, there will be internal strife sooner or later.

People are just so greedy and unsatisfied, never learning from their mistakes.

Repeating the cruel history, one cycle after another.

As the saying goes, the lesson learned from history is: no lesson learned.

After he finished speaking, some of the hundred subordinates remained silent, and some were unwilling, but none of them spoke.

Because what the clan leader said was the truth.

If they really came to the main world from the Void God Secret Realm, they might be able to maintain unity at the beginning, but after a long time, all kinds of troubles and dissatisfactions would arise.

Rather than that, it's better to just say it openly.

"So, what I mean is… I won't make any demands. My responsibility is to lead everyone to survive and not let our lineage be cut off. Thanks to the blessing and salvation of the Profound Master, we can get rid of the situation of destruction, and Ji's mission can be considered complete."

"I am not a good clan leader, nor a successful clan leader. I have not led everyone to do their best and minimize sacrifices. But I have a clear conscience and have done my best… I am tired and can take a good rest. In the future, I just want to be devoted to pastoral life under the protection of the Profound Master and be a carefree wandering cultivator."

"Phew!"

It seemed that as these words were spoken, the pressure in Ji Zhongfu's heart was also released.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Seeing the grateful eyes of his hundred subordinates, Ji Zhongfu realized that everything he had done before was worth it.

"Clan leader, you?" A subordinate couldn't help but say, "I can continue to follow…"

Before he could finish speaking, Ji Zhongfu said, "No, you still have your future and your life. You need to pursue your own goals. I will be a free man in the future, so what need do I have for guards? In the Profound Master's dojo in Qingyun Mountain, can anyone harm me?"

Ji Zhongfu directly interrupted his subordinate's words.

Now that he had made a decision, he would be straightforward. He didn't like to dawdle.

"Then what about your clansmen?" Yan Lai asked.

"It's all up to their own personal choices. I know what you mean. Don't worry, I won't interfere if they want to join your four sects. At the same time, if they want to form a force, I hope the four sect leaders won't target them. In short, it's all voluntary," Ji Zhongfu said.

"Okay, Clan Leader Ji is straightforward." Sun Hui was very satisfied with his inquiry.

He shouldn't have listened to Yan Lai and tested this and that. It was too much trouble. He should have just asked directly.

He seemed to have forgotten that without Yan Lai's foreshadowing and roundabout communication, there would be no such straightforward decision now.

"Congratulations to Senior Ji for attaining great freedom. This junior expresses deep envy."

Yan Lai bowed and said at this time.

Clan Leader Ji was gone and became Senior Ji.

This is actually a conventional rule among cultivators. Respecting the strong does not require teaching. It is a rule that is deeply rooted in the bones.

It's okay if you don't respect the experts and seniors. Who cares if you're looking for death yourself?

In the world of ordinary people, being older means being a senior, but cultivators only recognize strength.

If you are strong but very young, you are also a senior expert.

Conversely, if you are weak, no one will call you senior even if you are old.

At most, they will respect you a little, purely out of their nature to respect the old and love the young.

Ji Zhongfu was a second-order Great True cultivator. He used to call him Clan Leader Ji in order to take the initiative and deal with the situation, and he even found a reason to call him that.

But now that Clan Leader Ji was no longer the clan leader, his identity as a powerful cultivator was revealed.

At this time, Senior Ji was the real expert.

He was also an expert who planned to live a carefree life in the future. This kind of expert was the most difficult to provoke.

In the future, Senior Ji would no longer have clansmen as a burden and concern. If you made him unhappy, he would really beat you up.

Although it was impossible for an introductory disciple of the Profound Master to kill, what could you do if he specially educated you?

One reason could define all dissatisfaction, saying that you don't respect senior experts.

If you throw this sentence out, Xuanhuang would say that the beating was good and that those who don't respect senior experts should be educated.

"Congratulations, Senior Ji."

"Congratulations, Senior Ji!" + 2

Immediately, Jiutong, Minghui, and Sun Hui also hurriedly congratulated and changed their address.

"Haha…"

Ji Zhongfu let out a hearty laugh. It felt so good to be free of pressure.

Several subordinates who were still unwilling, seeing the clan leader laughing so heartily and the four sect leaders who had just targeted them being so respectful.

They seemed to understand that they were really a burden to the clan leader.

Without them, the clan leader was the real expert.

The clan leader's decision was right. He had been working hard for the clan leader for a long time, and it was time for the clan leader to live a carefree life.
