Pursuing Longevity With an Immortal Mansion

Chapter 246 Quota Arrangement (two chapters in one)

As time gradually passed, no instructions came from the elder Jindan above, and many monks began to relax.

In the minds of many monks, if the talks have not broken down after such a long time, then the differences should not be very big.

Thinking about it this way, they became more relaxed and no longer as nervous as they were at the beginning.

Liu Yu also does not think the war will continue.

After all, there are already fifty or sixty foundation-building monks from Guangyuanyang Sect who have fallen, so the casualties are not small.

You know, Yuanyang Zongming only has more than 400 foundation-building monks.

As for the casualties of the affiliated forces, they were even more serious, at least twice as much.

If the fight continues like this, it will really hurt the muscles and bones, and it will not be good for the five major sects.

Liu Yu even secretly guessed that maybe the specific distribution ratio of Hanwu Lingshi Mine had already been divided among the Yuanying monks of each sect.

The purpose of gathering here today is to officially announce it to the outside world, and let the Jindan monks below discuss the mining of the spirit stone mine and the personnel stationed there.

As for setting up the arena, the five major sects will arrange for monks from the three realms of Qi refining, foundation building, and golden elixir to compete in several battles to determine the distribution share of the spirit stone mine?

I can only say that I think too much.

Just as it is extremely difficult to intervene in the battles between monks in the foundation-building stage during the Qi-refining stage, the gap between the monks in the foundation-building stage and the golden elixir stage will only become wider, and the golden elixir stage and the Nascent Soul stage are like a natural chasm that is impossible to cross.

This huge gap in "quality" cannot be made up by "quantity"!

Nascent Soul stage monks can easily sweep through the monks below them, as easily as a dimensionality reduction attack. No amount of numbers can close the huge gap.

In this case, it is the five major sects that can determine the direction of the Chu Kingdom and the distribution of the spirit stone mines. Those who determine the fate of the five major sects must be the Yuan Ying ancestors of each sect.

Although the death of the monks under the Nascent Soul will damage the sect's vitality, it cannot shake the foundation.

When the sun was about to disappear completely on the horizon, the situation suddenly changed.

The golden elixir monks above seemed to have reached some kind of agreement and negotiated a mutually acceptable condition. They descended from the sky and returned to their own camp.

Liu Yu raised his ears and listened to Elder Yan and Elder Zhou's explanation.

Sure enough, as he thought, the share of the spirit stone mine had already been allocated by the ancestor of Nascent Soul.

They came here this time to officially witness the end of the war, and the Jindan elders of the five major sects gathered together to discuss the mining of the spirit stone mine and the issue of stationed monks.

According to what Elder Yan said, the shares of the five major sects in the Hanwu Lingshi Mine are: Piaoxue Pavilion 26%, Cangyue Valley 17%, Qingxu Sect 17%, Yuanyang Sect 20%, and Hehuan Sect 20% .

In Liu Yu's view, this distribution plan is relatively "normal".

It conforms to some cruel and real laws in the world of immortality.

There are two Nascent Soul cultivators in Piaoxue Pavilion. Their overall strength far exceeds that of any other sect, and it is natural that they hold the largest share.

The remaining four major sect monks are not far apart in strength, and if they join forces in pairs, their shares will naturally be about the same.

It's just because Yuanyang Sect and Hehuan Sect are "local snakes" after all, and the Lingshi mine is at the junction of Qingjing and Qingjing Continents, so they occupy a larger share.

Finally, there is the Qingxu Sect and Cangyue Valley. Because their strengths are not much different and the sects are far away, they naturally suffer some losses in terms of distribution.

On this point, the three sects of Piaoxue Pavilion, Yuanyang Sect, and Hehuan Sect still have a tacit understanding.

As for the specific mining of the spirit stone mine and the issue of the monks stationed here by each sect, there is a lot of knowledge involved. As long as you do a little operation, you can get a lot of money.

Therefore, the Jindan monks from the five sects were arguing endlessly about this, refusing to give in for four or five hours.

In front of more than 200 foundation-building monks, close to 10,000 Qi-refining monks in Qingzhou, and the large and small forces in Qingzhou, Elder Yan and Elder Zhou announced that the war in the immortal world of Chu was over.

There was no cheer as expected. Many monks from the major forces in Qingzhou, including the Yuanyang Sect, died.

For many monks who are still alive, some of them have lost their support, some have lost their descendants, and some have lost their close friends.

Perhaps, sometimes life is more painful than death.

Although they had anticipated the possible outcome before setting off, they had to come.

To the other large and small forces in Qingzhou, the Yuanyang Sect has been inherited for more than 8,000 years and has ruled Qingzhou for 3,000 years. It is a behemoth that cannot be offended.

When such a behemoth gives an order, it is really "Those who obey me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish."

No matter how big or small the forces in Qingzhou are, they can only accept the reality. If they go there, they may suffer heavy losses. If they don't go, they will definitely be wiped out.

Of course, monks who died because of the Yuanyang Sect's orders to participate in the war would also receive some compensation, such as exemption or reduction of tribute for a number of years.

For example, if a foundation-building monk dies, he may be exempted from annual tribute ranging from ten to twenty years depending on the situation.

As for direct compensation for spiritual stones? This is only symbolic and usually minimal.

As for the death of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, a Foundation Establishment Pill would be compensated? That's pure fantasy.

The Yuanyang Sect's rule in Qingzhou has never relied on etiquette and principles, but on complete brutality and strength!

There is a huge gap in strength, and there is no need to worry too much about the thoughts of the large and small forces in Qingzhou.

Liu Yu read the records in the Library and found that this kind of governance policy was generally relatively stable after experiencing the initial pain.

In fact, the other four major sects in Chu State also did the same thing, but some sects were wrapped in a shell, while some sects were more naked.

Yuanyang Sect is not the most cruel, but it is definitely not the gentlest either.

As the spiritual energy density of the entire world of cultivating immortals gradually declines, the resources for cultivating immortals will inevitably slowly decrease.

Chu's resources for cultivating immortals are limited, but there are more and more monks. If things go on like this, they will inevitably fall into a vicious cycle.

Either increase revenue or reduce expenditure.

At present, open source is basically impossible to achieve. The resources of the Chu Kingdom's immortal cultivation world have long been discovered and utilized. Unless resources are sought from outside, there are other territories outside the Chu Kingdom that belong to other immortal cultivation circles.

Unless you want to start a war between the immortal world, it is impossible to open source open source.

In this case, we can only cut costs and reduce resource consumption.

Therefore, the five major sects all intend to reduce the number of immortal cultivators in Chu State. First of all, it is naturally impossible to weaken their own sect, so they have no choice but to attack the affiliated families, sects and casual cultivators.

Under the guidance of the five major sects intentionally or unintentionally, using the excuse of the Lingshi Mine War, the desired result should have been achieved.

This time there were many casualties among the five major sects, not to mention the affiliated forces, at least about double that of the five major sects.

As for the casual cultivators, countless people died.

Based on the records he read in the Library Pavilion and what he saw and heard in Wangyue City, Liu Yu made some uncertain guesses.

The tasks performed by the affiliated forces are obviously more dangerous and the arrangements are somewhat unreasonable. Could it be that no knowledgeable person has discovered it?

There certainly is, but what's the use of discovering it, and what can be changed with absolute strength?

If you dare to spread rumors, not only will you die, but your family or your sect will also be harmed.

The five major sects want to reduce the number of monks, at least using war as an excuse.

If it was a demonic sect, why would it be so troublesome?

Directly send the monks in the sect to carry out a bloodbath, slaughter some of the excess lambs in the pasture, and make full use of the flesh, blood, and souls.

Nothing will be wasted.

Regardless of the mood of the monks from these affiliated forces, Elder Yan called all the Yuanyang Sect foundation-building monks present aside, and then set up a soundproof barrier.

Elder Yan coughed lightly, his eyes flashed, he glanced around and said:

"The dispute over the Lingshi Mine has been basically settled."

"After discussing with the Golden Pill monks from other sects, I have decided on the number of monks stationed in the Cold Mist Lingshi Mine."

"Elder Zhou will be stationed here for a long time from now on. In addition, our sect can arrange seven foundation-building monks and one hundred Qi-refining period disciples."

Stationed at the Lingshi Mine, this is a fat job!

There is no need to be greedy by then, just scrape off a little bit, which will be enough for the foundation-building monks to eat.

Hearing this, except for Zhao Wuji, Zhou Zhuofeng and other monks who had been specially trained by the sect and had no shortage of spiritual stones, or monks with big backgrounds, they were unmoved.

The eyes of the other monks lit up and they all became eager.

This is a real benefit!

For a time, many foundation-building monks looked eagerly at Elder Yan, hoping that they could garrison in the Lingshi Mine.

Of course, these monks do not include Liu Yu.

He has solved the problem of lack of spiritual stones, so naturally he does not need to stay in the cold mist spiritual stone mine to gain benefits secretly.

There is only one idea now, which is to quickly return to the sect, have a good retreat, and try to improve the cultivation level to the middle stage of foundation building first.

"Because arrangements need to be made immediately, the stationed monks will not be dispatched from the sect."

"Well, just choose from among you."

Understanding the thoughts of these juniors, Elder Yan showed a smile on his wrinkled face.

"Elder, I am willing to stay here for the sect, and I will never let the sect suffer any losses."

"Elder Yan, Mr. Guo is willing to guard the Lingshi Mine for the sect for the rest of his life and never take a step back to defend the interests of the sect."

"Elder..."

"Junior is willing to stay..."

Regarding real interests and colorful spiritual stones, for a time many monks in the foundation-building stage could no longer care about the demeanor of the "immortal family" and rushed to recommend themselves to Elder Yan.

Many foundation-building monks realize that this may be an opportunity to change their own destiny.

With spirit stones, you can buy sharp magic weapons and elixirs to quickly improve your cultivation, and it becomes easier to improve your realm.

Unfortunately, unlike Liu Yuquan who earns spiritual stones by refining elixirs and running shops, he controls his destiny in his own hands.

The number of garrison monks is in the hands of Elder Yan, and he can decide with one word at this time.

"Quiet, how inappropriate is it to make noise!"

Seeing the noisy scene, Elder Yan frowned, the smile on his face disappeared and he looked very unhappy, and shouted sternly.

As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly fell silent, and many foundation-building monks could only look at Elder Yan expectantly, hoping that they could be one of the seven "lucky ones".

A few monks were not interested in this task, and some looked at the former with ridicule. They were all people with deep roots in the sect.

There was no disdain in Liu Yu's heart.

It's not shabby to get spiritual stones.

For this garrison task, he was indispensable.

Although there is no shortage of spiritual stones, with the Immortal Mansion in hand, Liu Yu would not mind being a hard-working porter if this task really fell on him.

Transport the spirit stones from the spirit stone mine to your own immortal mansion without anyone noticing.

With the magic of the Immortal Mansion world, any detection method is not easy to use. Even if the Nascent Soul cultivator is in front of him, Liu Yu is somewhat sure that he will not be able to detect it.

As he learned more and more about the Immortal Mansion, he became more and more confident.

If it really went into a mine, it would definitely be like a mouse falling into a rice vat - there is no way out.

After staying for ten or eight years, when the moving is almost complete, I can find an excuse to leave. It is indeed perfect.

There are only seven places for the foundation-building monks to be stationed, but there are more than a hundred monks present. Even if a very small number of monks are not interested, they still do not change the fact that there are too many monks and few monks. Most of the monks are destined to be disappointed.

Elder Yan pondered slightly, then moved his right hand and pointed at seven foundation-building monks in succession, asking him or her to stand up, and asked:

"You and the other seven are willing to guard the spirit stone mine for the sect?"

Among the seven foundation-building monks, some of them couldn't believe that such a good thing was actually their turn?

But their response was not slow:

"Disciple is willing!"

"I will live up to the high expectations of the sect and elders!"

Among the seven people, Yan Hongyu and Yan Quer were prominently among them.

As for the other five foundation-building monks, Liu Yu did not know their identities.

But I think there should be monks from the three major factions in the sect. They all say that people become better with age. Elder Yan is hundreds of years old, and he will definitely not leave anyone with something to say.

He didn't feel surprised that he was not selected. He didn't feel disappointed because he had no expectations.

Even with the size of the five major sects, they only control one medium-sized spirit stone mine (Piaoxue Pavilion has several more small spirit stone mines), which shows the huge benefits it contains.

Elder Yan will definitely arrange for monks from his own family to go in first and consider the issue from the family's perspective. This is human nature.

The value Liu Yu has shown so far is naturally not enough for Elder Yan to arrange a quota.

My own family has no choice but to arrange for two people, let alone a less important outsider?

If the food looks too ugly, it will cause public outrage.

Elder Yan's authority in Wangyue City did not need to be explained, and the parties involved had already agreed. Naturally, it was not the turn of the foundation-building monks who had not been chosen to object, so the soundproof barrier was revoked with a wave of his hand.

When Liu Yu and others returned to the camp, there were already a hundred disciples in the Qi refining stage standing in front of the formation and divided into several teams. Their waists were straight, and some disciples couldn't help but beam with joy.

Needless to say, these Qi refining disciples must have been arranged by Elder Zhou. The two elders really have a "clear division of labor."

Liu Yu shook his head in his heart.

Exchange of interests and sophistication of people are indispensable everywhere.

Not long after, several groups of Qi Refining monks and several Foundation-building monks also walked out in front of other sects.

Liu Yu noticed that Piaoxue Pavilion had the most Qi refining and foundation-building monks stationed here, followed by Yuanyang Sect and Hehuan Sect, and the Qingxu Sect of Waning Moon Valley had the least.

It seems that the arrangement of stationed monks is based on the share of the sect. The larger the share, the more monks can be arranged.

Although the share has been determined on the surface, it is hard to tell the "little moves" made secretly in private.

Arranging more monks will undoubtedly make it easier to perform small movements, and there will be more places to operate.

"Junior Brother Zhou, this matter is over. I will leave the matters at the Lingshi Mine to you."

Elder Yan and Elder Zhou discussed for a while, and then said solemnly.
