Strange mountains and rivers

Transform into a red dragon? Then it could be a different cultivator?

If the Yuelu Sect wants to capture it, it means that the red dragon has not yet transformed, or is evolving into a strange cultivator. The Yuelu Sect wants to capture it when it transforms. At this time, the value of the strange beast is the greatest.

This is reasonable.

But for the Lingyun Sect, hundreds of people have moved thousands of miles away, but you told me that you made the entire sect wait for a monster. What qualifications do you, the Yuelu Sect, have to give you orders?

If they don't move in, where will these hundreds of people live?

It's just a red dragon, just kill it. As for you wanting to capture the red dragon, what does it have to do with me?

It is not uncommon for monsters to evolve into alien cultivators.

In a sense, monsters and spiritual beasts are the transformation of the five insects in ancient times after being infiltrated and eroded by miasma or spiritual energy.

It's just that their physical abilities have changed, making them stronger and more ferocious than the ordinary five insects.

They also have the opportunity to change again after taking the treasures of heaven and earth or encountering certain adventures, and move towards the path of extraordinary cultivation.

But they may be more powerful before they become alien cultivators, but the path to transforming into alien cultivators and truly opening up their spiritual wisdom will be more difficult than for ordinary five insects to become alien cultivators. This is what is said about gains and losses.

It was actually right that Lingyun Sect gave priority to Dahuaishan.

No matter from any aspect of conditions, Dahuai Mountain is better than places like Wolong Ridge and Xuankong Mountain, but there is only one point. It is precisely because the conditions of Weihuai Road where it is located are better, but it is close to Tianjing Road in Jinzhou, and Tianjing Road is also the location of the Wolulu Sect, the largest sect in Jinzhou, so this became the original sin.

For hundreds of years, the Yuelu Sect has had a great influence on Wei Huaidao, and has a tendency to adopt it as a forbidden member. The small sects and clans of Wei Huaidao basically all look up to the Yuelu Sect.

Over the years, even the Tianhe Sect, the largest sect in Yanzhou on Zhangchi Road in the north, could only watch helplessly as the Yuelu Sect reached out to Yanzhou. Although they had several conflicts with the Yuelu Sect, However, it was still unable to cut off the Yuelu Sect's penetration of Wei Huaidao.

Now that Lingyun Sect has rashly moved to Dahuaishan on Wei Huaidao, it has immediately become the focus of Yuelu Sect and Tianhe Sect.

Of course, the Yuelu Sect wants to eliminate them quickly, and the Tianhe Sect also hopes that both the Lingyun Sect and the Yuelu Sect can lose. The pond is now starting to become bumpy, and it is obvious that the Lingyun Sect is at a disadvantage, and the situation is even very bad.

"Senior Min, you mean that the Yuelu Sect and the Lingyun Sect are at odds now, and the Lingyun Sect is at a disadvantage?"

"I don't know why the Lingyun Sect chose Dahuai Mountain. Although the other conditions of Dahuai Mountain are indeed very good, the Yuelu Sect also intended to set up a Taoist temple in Dahuai Mountain, but they gave up after several confrontations with the Tianhe Sect. This plan, and the Tianhe Sect also intended to take over Dahuai Mountain, was also thwarted by the Yuelu Sect. The two sides were in a stalemate, which made Dahuai Mountain, a spiritual mountain treasure land, vacant..."

"If a large sect of the Great Zhao, such as the Jiulian Sect or the Yunlong Sect, takes over Dahuaishan, its strength can crush the surrounding forces, perhaps the Tianhe Sect and the Yuelu Sect can only look back and sigh. But Lingyun Sect is obviously not qualified, so Lingyun Sect has become the target of public criticism..."

Min Yusun felt that Chen Huaisheng was very interested in the situation of Lingyun Sect, so he introduced the situation even harder: "Lingyun Sect was attacked several times by the Yuelu Sect, and the Tianhe Sect was also adding insult to injury, and the surrounding small sects and aristocratic families also attacked in groups. Therefore, Lingyun Sect is in a very difficult situation..."

Chen Huaisheng was secretly shocked. Could it be that Jiulian Sect also turned a blind eye? Isn't this the site recommended by the Jiulian Sect?

Could it be that Jiulian Sect doesn’t understand these situations at all?

"Senior Min, what you said is very difficult. Can you be more specific? How difficult is it?" Chen Huaisheng asked again.

"Well, let's put it this way, Lingyun Sect has neither recruited disciples nor organized local order in Wei Huaidao. Of course, no one is willing to send their own children to Lingyun Sect. The distribution of Lingtian territory remains the same, and the surrounding areas None of the family clans are willing to pay tribute to them, and they are basically maintaining the status quo. If they continue like this, they will just sit on their hands and have nothing to do. There is no way they can hold on for too long, and the Yuelu Sect and Tianhe Sect will definitely try their best to suppress it..."

After a final pause, Min Yusun gritted his teeth and said: "If this continues, there will be no big changes. Maybe in a year and a half, Lingyun Sect may really have no choice but to evacuate, otherwise what awaits them will be disintegration."

Min Yusun's judgment made Chen Huaisheng purse his lips and ponder, "Senior Min, how come your Min family understands the situation at Wei Huaidao in such detail, um, even profoundly?"

Old Min Yusun blushed, hesitated for a moment, and said nothing, but Min Qingyu next to him said directly: "Master Chen wants to say that our Min family is a local clan, and it's okay to deliberately struggle in Fuyang, but he stretched out his hand to Wei Huaidao , isn’t it a bit overestimating one’s abilities and being wishful thinking?”

Chen Huaisheng was happy, but he was not polite: "Yes, that's what I think. With a structure like Hebei, and a clan like the Min family, there are only eighty if not a hundred, right? What is the purpose of the Min family doing this? Does the Min family still think that they can expel the Yuelu Sect and surround the Six Paths of Yanzhou? It’s not the Min family’s turn to bear this courage, right?"

"The Min family is self-aware and does not have such a grand vision, but the Min family hopes that Fuyang and even Yanzhou will have a stronger sect to protect them, instead of being scattered like it is now..."

"The situation of demonic beasts and even ferocious beasts has become more and more terrifying in recent years, and has reached a shocking and urgent situation..."

"We made a simple statistics. In Minjialou, in the past ten years, the number of people who died from monster attacks every year has increased from an average of about 60 people ten years ago to about 120 people in the past three years. This All are acceptable, but among them, the number of Taoist losses in attacks every year ten years ago was about seven or eight, but in the past three years, the number has increased to about eighteen, and it is even continuing to grow!"

"But the number of Dao people born in our Minjialou population every year is only about ten. This means that if this continues, the number of our mortals may not have a big impact, but the number of Dao people will continue to shrink. If things go on like this, when the number of Dao people is so small that To a certain extent, the Minjia Tower will cease to exist, and even any first-level monster or even a non-level monster can cause a catastrophe..."

For ordinary mortals, the threat of second-order monsters such as the Ice Scale Blood Python is not that great. The ones that really cause the greatest losses to mortals are the first-order monsters and gradeless monsters.

For example, the three types of monsters that cause the most casualties to the mortals and ordinary Taoists in Minjialou every year are the hyena, the wolf, and the mountain beast, followed by the iron-maned wild boar, the ghost crow, and the weasel, accounting for almost 70% of the casualties.

Daozhong's losses are basically caused by the encirclement and suppression of first-order monsters. Whenever these first-order monsters break into the village, Daozhong is the first main line of defense in the encirclement and suppression. Without these Daozhong, If we attack immediately to stop them, the threat of killing these monsters to mortals will increase several times, or even ten times. This is also the greatest role of Taoism.

Once all the Tao seeds are lost and cannot threaten the monsters, then the mortals in a place are basically pigs and sheep who are allowed to be slaughtered by the monsters.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Min Qingyu said word by word: "Both my younger sister and my father believe that if the current situation continues, it will be difficult to maintain our Min family building, and even the surrounding kings, in twenty years, or even ten years at most. In places like the town and Daduweizi, our Tao seeds will be completely lost, and then we will no longer be able to resist the attack of the monsters and become food in the mouths of the monsters. Maybe Bajiao Village and Baita City are better, but we still I don’t think they can sustain it, even if they are stronger and even protected by Zifu’s casual cultivators!”

Chen Huaisheng understood the meaning of the other party's words and nodded: "You mean, you judge that if this situation continues, the invasion of monsters will become more and more fierce, and you have the Tao skills to explore and practice on your own. The model is unsustainable, so you think it should be completely changed, um, the only way out is to completely invest in our Chonghua faction and have the Chonghua faction protect you?"

Min Qingyu nodded sternly, with a firm look on his face: "Yes, there are actually a lot of Taoist people born and raised every year. For example, the number of Taoist people born in our Minjialou every year is about fifteen, but for enlightenment and refining qi On average, there are only about one person who succeeds, and occasionally there are two people. Now we have a total of more than 300 Taoists in Minjialou, among which there are 65 Qi refining monks, basically all of them are in the first stage of Qi refining. If our If the success rate of Taoist Qi refining can be doubled every year, from one or two people to two or three people, then our ability to resist the attacks of monsters will be greatly improved, and the loss rate of Taoist seeds will also be greatly reduced..."

This is a data party, but the analysis and judgment based on these data are quite objective and accurate.

There are about fifteen Tao seeds every year, but the success rate of enlightenment and Qi refining is less than one-tenth, which is indeed quite low. This is because there are no cultivation sects and aristocratic families. The success rate of Qi is at least three to four times higher.

Moreover, the success of Minjialou disciples in refining qi is basically at the early stage of qi refining, and it is difficult to break through. If there are a few more monks in the middle stage of qi refining, the situation can be greatly improved, but this is an unattainable hope. .

The Min family probably came here for this point.

As long as the children of the Min family can gain the favor of the Chonghua Sect, more disciples will succeed in refining Qi at the beginning every year, and the disciples who succeed in refining Qi will be able to get a few more intermediate Qi refining stages from time to time. When the Min family building is attacked by monsters, the Chonghua Sect will If help can be provided in time, the situation of Minjialou can definitely be greatly improved, and there will be no more danger of collapse.

Similarly, Minjialou can further expand its influence and strength under such circumstances, and gain greater initiative in the competition for surrounding spiritual fields and lands.
