"Gongyangzi!"

Shen Changqing shook his head slightly and put the matter behind him for the time being.

Huayang Ancestral Court would send someone over, which was not beyond his expectation.

But from this matter, Shen Changqing can be regarded as concluding one thing, that is, Huayang Ancestral Court should be searching for something.

otherwise.

It's hard to explain why Gong Yangzi secretly used his spiritual thoughts to probe himself as soon as they met.

The other party thought he didn't notice it, but in fact Shen Changqing saw it, but didn't expose it.

but.

Why did the other party want to investigate a casual cultivator?

Think about it.

Shen Changqing only thought of one possibility.

That is, Gongyangzi is not looking for casual cultivators, but wants to find himself.

"really!"

"Huayang Ancestral Court did not stay aloof."

"It seems that other forces are probably about the same!"

Shen Changqing thought to himself.

He had offended the Demon Lord and many forces in the dark camp. He could not be tolerated by the two camps. Coupled with the many inheritances and treasures on his body, even the God Lord would be moved.

In the past, I barely belonged to the Netherworld camp, and it was difficult for Huayang Ancestral Court and other forces to directly take action.

now.

That gave them enough reason.

then.

To be on the safe side, Shen Changqing also asked Duan Jing to keep an eye on some of the movements in the Eight Wildernesses of Kyushu in secret.

Although Hongshan City is in the ancient wasteland, the monks who come to Hongshan City are not the only monks from the ancient wasteland, and the forces of casual cultivators are also complicated. It is not difficult to find out some information clearly.

It only takes a few days.

Duan Jing completed what Shen Changqing ordered.

"It is said that the four great imperial dynasties and the major ancestral courts are secretly searching for something. According to the news, they are not looking for some inherited secrets or treasures, but are looking for a monk."

"Which monk?"

"Shen Changqing, the leader of Tianzong!"

Duan Jing said in a deep voice.

When he mentioned this name, he couldn't help but show awe on his face.

Shen Changqing, the leader of Tianzong.

This name is also very popular in the ancient wilderness.

No.

Precisely.

The other party's reputation is unique.

Even the mighty God-Emperor of overlord-level forces such as Huayang Ancestral Court, Tiangang Ancestral Court, etc., looked inadequate in front of that person.

Just because hundreds of years ago, Shen Changqing killed many powerful men from the dark camp in the nine ancient cities of the wilderness, and then killed many god emperors in the world. More importantly, the opponents were just Dao Fruit monks.

The Dao Fruit reverses and kills the God Emperor like an ant.

Throughout history, only one person can do it.

Seeing Shen Changqing fall into silence, Duan Jing couldn't help but say: "The city lord must not know who Shen Changqing is. This person comes from the heavens and is the sect leader of a force called Tianzong.

Rumor has it that although this person is a Taoist, his combat prowess is unparalleled. He can kill the God Emperor like an ant, making him the number one Taoist in ancient and modern times.

What's more, there are rumors from the gods that if this person does not die unexpectedly in the future, he will definitely achieve immortality..."

"How could I not have heard of Shen Changqing? I just didn't expect that all the major forces were searching for his whereabouts. According to my understanding, this person belongs to the heavens and should be regarded as belonging to the same family as the major ancestral families. Make camp!”

Shen Changqing smiled faintly, as if the person the other party was bragging about was not him at all.

Duanjing was speechless: "The city lord doesn't know something. Sect Leader Shen killed many powerful men in the heavens, and I heard that he also offended the gods of the black demon gods in the heavens. He has long been disliked by the gods in the heavens."

"I see!"

Shen Changqing nodded.

Subsequently.

He just shook his head and said: "Forget it, whether it is the Tianzong Sect Master or the two major camps, I, Hongshan City, can't interfere, so we can just keep this matter in our stomach.

If other interested monks heard it, it would only cause more trouble. "

"My subordinates won't say much outside!"

Duan Jing's expression also changed slightly and he responded hurriedly.

He and Shen Changqing were the only two people in the lobby now, but Duan Jing didn't dare to say any more.

Just as Shen Changqing said, whether it is the Tianzong leader or the two major camps, these topics are too sensitive.

If it happens to be leaked out by accident, it might cause a fishy mess.

Shen Changqing changed the topic: "How is the formation of the Red Mountain Army now?"

Originally, he had no intention of intervening in the affairs of Hongshan City. Now that he has left the country, he still has to intervene in the affairs of Hongshan City.

Duan Jing said: "The one hundred thousand Hongshan Army has been formed. In terms of salary, my subordinates have tentatively agreed that the God King will receive one mid-grade Nether Spirit Stone per year, and the God Lord will receive ten mid-grade Nether Spirit Stones.

However, regarding the inheritance of the secret art, my subordinates have not yet made up their minds, so they ask the city lord to make the decision! "

One mid-grade Nether Spirit Stone per year!

Ten middle-grade Nether Spiritual Stones a year!

This salary.

It's quite generous.

After all, in terms of divine crystals, the divine king is equivalent to ten thousand divine crystals per year, and the divine master is equivalent to one hundred thousand divine crystals per year. If ten thousand years are used as the unit, that is one hundred million divine crystals and one billion divine crystals.

Take the God King of Heaven and Earth as an example. Ten years of faith condensed a piece of Heaven and Earth God Crystal, which is equivalent to more than 5,000 ordinary God Crystals.

If you join the Red Mountain Army now, you will get one hundred thousand divine crystals in ten years, and the benefits can be imagined.

Although the Netherworld is not dominated by divine crystals, the Netherworld Spiritual Stone is equally precious, so a mid-grade Netherworld Spiritual Stone is already quite good.

One hundred thousand Red Mountain Army.

One year down.

It is conservatively estimated that the consumption is 100,000 mid-grade Nether Spirit Stones, which is ten top-grade Nether Spirit Stones.

In fact.

This is just the lowest estimate.

After all, it is impossible for the hundred thousand Red Mountain Army to all be God Kings. If they were like God Lords, then the Nether Spiritual Stones would have to be multiplied several times.

An ordinary sect would naturally not be able to support so many monks.

but.

Hongshan City is not a big problem.

After all, even the Hongling Chamber of Commerce's annual profits are more than just ten top-grade Nether Spirit Stones.

so.

A Hongling Chamber of Commerce is more than enough to support an army of 100,000 monks.

Not to mention taxes and other income.

If all were counted, not to mention one hundred thousand monks, even one million monks, Hongshan City could still afford it.

Another point.

These monks are not raised to live in vain, but to create profits, such as going out to hunt ghost beasts, searching for heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and other various things.

In general.

The final cost that fell on Hongshan City was actually not that much. On the contrary, there was still a surplus.

"In terms of inheritance, all the monks who join the Hongshan Army, if they are God Kings, will be able to inherit the top secret knowledge of God Kings, but they must sign a contract and serve Hongshan City for ten thousand years.

If you leave without permission within ten thousand years, you will need to pay back double the value of this unique skill.

In the words of the God Lord, they will teach the secret knowledge according to their current realm. Those with a God Lord below the sixth level will be given inheritance by lower-level God Lords, and those with a God Lord with a level seven or above can be given inheritance by the top God Lord.

As a price, they need to serve the Red Mountain Army for 100,000 years. If they leave within 100,000 years, the price will be the same as the God King. "

"In addition, merit points will be set up. Anyone who has made contributions to Hongshan City will receive corresponding merit points. If a certain number of merit points are collected, they can be exchanged for a higher level of inheritance.

Even if it is the inheritance of the Divine Lord, I can give it to them! "

Shen Changqing briefly stated some of his opinions. This is the outline of the idea, but the specific implementation is left to Duanjing.

After all, the other party once ran a Honglingfang City and was quite experienced in this aspect.

as expected.

After Duan Jing heard Shen Changqing's words, he thought for a moment and already had an idea in his mind.

"Subordinates take orders!"

He bowed.

In fact, before this, Duan Jing himself had some ideas, but because it involved the inheritance of skills, he did not dare to make any decisions without authorization.

Now Shen Changqing's words have completely relieved the commander of the Red Mountain Army.

When Duan Jing went to deal with the affairs of the Hongshan Army, Shen Changqing went into seclusion again.

…

The secret room is empty.

Shen Changqing sat cross-legged.

The shadow of the sacred tree on the avenue above the head is swaying, the extremely rich and regular Taoist rhyme is flowing, the blood-colored Milky Way hangs upside down, and the mighty river is filled with the aura of killing.

Shen Changqing closed his eyes and meditated. Many top-grade Nether Spirit Stones were arranged in a formation. The majestic energy gathered in his body and continued to strengthen his soul.

This method of refining Nether Spirit Stone was developed by Shen Changqing later.

After all, the refining speed of each piece is too slow.

It's okay if it's a small amount of Nether Spirit Stone, but if it's a large quantity, it won't be refining so quickly.

so.

Shen Changqing used formation methods to refine it.

Not only is this method faster, but no energy will escape, which can be regarded as maximizing the effect of the Nether Spirit Stone.

A large amount of energy poured into the body, and Shen Changqing felt that his soul seemed to be sublimated, and all kinds of insights came to his heart, making the bloody Milky Way tremble violently.

When Shen Changqing realized the regular avenue, the trees in the cave sky now seemed to be nourished by energy, and their branches and leaves became stronger and stronger.

Building trees support the sky.

The cave is slowly expanding.

Ever since Jianmu merged with the giant sacred tree and turned into Dao Jianmu, Shen Changqing's strength has been growing every moment, but this growth rate is extremely slow.

But.

When Shen Changqing was refining the Nether Spirit Stone, the growth of the avenue's building trees was much faster than usual.

According to his speculation, it is the energy contained in the Nether Spirit Stone that can be used as nourishment for the construction of the avenue.

In fact, it is not just the Nether Spiritual Stone, even ordinary ordinary spiritual stones can also nourish the building trees of the avenue.

but--

Ordinary Heaven and Earth Spiritual Stones are naturally not as precious as Netherworld Spiritual Stones.

After all, although ordinary spiritual stones contain the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, these spiritual energy of heaven and earth are not as mysterious as the spiritual energy of the netherworld contained in the Netherworld Spiritual Stone, which can directly temper the soul.

strictly speaking.

In some ways, the spiritual energy of the netherworld is at a higher level than the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Of course.

Everything has two sides.

Netherworld spiritual energy can only temper the soul, while heaven and earth spiritual energy can temper the physical body. The two have different emphasis, and their importance in different aspects will naturally be different.
