In an instant, large strands of mysterious spiritual light fell from the sky, falling into Yuan Ming's body like drizzle.
The comfortable feeling of bathing in a hot spring and wandering in the clouds came to his heart again, making him feel extremely comfortable.
Under the nourishment of this power, his magical powers also began to undergo subtle changes.
In particular, the magical power of the reincarnation of life and death was the first to show its differences after absorbing a large amount of power.
I saw a Dao Seal of black and white rays of light that blended with each other, condensed in Yuan Ming's sea of consciousness. The flow and blending of the rays of light seemed to be similar to the Yin-Yang Tai Chi Diagram.
However, the distinction between black and white light is not so clear, and there is no fish eye of yin and yang in each, as if it is a more profound way of blending yin and yang.
At the same time, other Dao seals in Yuan Ming's body also lit up one after another under the nourishment of this power of the Dao, and began a new round of improvement.
"Are the spiritual stones in the treasury still enough?" Yuan Ming put down the list and asked with concern.
"How many people are coveting the position of the master in the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain Range? Now that our accumulated power is strong enough, it's time to compete for the top spot. I think we can start by conquering the remaining eighteen cities of the Tianhong Formation.
." Yuan Ming smiled.
"Everything on the jade slips is extremely rare. In the past twenty years, I relied on my background in the Tianpeng Chamber of Commerce and used all my connections, but I couldn't find even half of the supplies. What I could buy was only worth ten
It’s only one percent. Even so, almost all of Baidi City’s income over the years has been invested in it.” Xiying’s voice contained a hint of helplessness.
In addition, after many years of enlightenment and practice, the practice of the Five Elements Path and Fruit has also achieved some success.
In his Dantian, five half-empty and half-solid gourds were condensed, shining with green, red, yellow, white, and black light, floating leisurely in it, like five stars, shining brightly.
"No matter how much we increase revenue and reduce expenditure, Baidi City's income still seems unable to support such huge expenses."
After hearing this, Yuan Ming smiled softly and said no more.
Yuan Ming took the roster and read it carefully.
After a while, she said: "Now that you have been promoted to a life witch, you can indeed start working on this matter. Moreover, I am also planning to go to Baidi City in the near future."
Above the eaves, branches spread and green leaves sway gently, as if they were gifts from nature, adding a different kind of vitality to the Shura Palace.
Yuan Ming ended the communication with Xi Ying, took a deep breath, raised his hand and waved lightly, and fired a magic formula. Then a brilliance flashed before his eyes, and the Shura Palace appeared.
"I'm here to pay homage to the mountain and receive a certificate of honor. Okay, I'll accept the gifts from these cities and select suitable return gifts from the treasury to send them over as a token of reciprocity." After hearing this, Yuan Ming smiled and said.
Yuan Ming looked at the falling autumn leaves outside the window. After pondering for a moment, he slowly said, "It's time to expand our power and seek development abroad."
"Oh? Who's here?" Yuan Ming asked, raising his eyebrows.
"In half a month, Baidi City will hold a large-scale auction, jointly sponsored by more than a dozen chambers of commerce such as Wanhuo Xianxing and Tianpeng Chamber of Commerce. As the organizer, we, Baidi City, need to be responsible for the corresponding matters. At that time, major
Commercial houses will send many rare items for auction. As the organizer, we have the right of first refusal and can choose one item from each of these auction items." Wang Fulong thought for a while and said.
Yuan Ming smiled and nodded, and responded: "I thank you all for your hard work during my retreat. The fact that Baidi City is so stable is really due to all of you."
"Don't worry, City Lord, there is still plenty of spiritual stones needed for these auctions in the treasury. In recent years, the City Lord's Mansion has managed taxes properly and has made a lot of profits. Together with the output of the Spiritual Medicine Garden and Shura Palace, Baidi City's treasury has already
It is much richer than the treasury of most cities and some small and medium-sized sects." Wang Fulong smiled slightly and replied.
Today's Shura Palace is completely different from the past.
"Longshan, the city lord of Yinshan City, came in person. However, because the city lord had not left seclusion, he stayed in the city for two days and then left. When he left, he also took away the Anzi who stayed in the city." Wang Fulong
Detailed report.
Under its long rotation, it is like a bottomless pit, and most of the power of the falling avenue is absorbed by it silently, like a trickle flowing into the sea.
Whenever it is running, the majestic suction force is like a strong wind, and it seems to be sucking in and swallowing up other Dao Seals around it, but in the end it still fails to do so.
Although the space has not changed much, the black clouds suspended in the sky and the electric snakes flashing from time to time add a bit of mystery and majesty to the Shura Palace.
Yuan Ming walked leisurely and soon came to the place where the World Tree was.
He handed it over respectfully with both hands and said: "City Lord, this is the list of this auction, please take a look."
"Previously, Wang Fulong told me that Baidi City has made a lot of money in recent years and the treasury is full. Why do you say that all of it has been consumed?" Yuan Ming couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he heard this.
As more power of the Great Dao is absorbed, the power of the Hunyuan Dao Seal becomes more significant, and the ability to swallow it increases greatly.
After some encouragement, everyone dispersed one after another.
"I have found a way to obtain the follow-up skills of Ming Yue Jue. Perhaps it can be carried out in parallel with your actions to conquer other cities." Xiying said.
As his eyes moved, his eyes gradually lit up: "Among the auction items of Wanhuo Xianxing, there is actually a sixth-level demon elixir that bears the mountain turtle. Such a rare thing must not fall into the hands of others."
In the past twenty years, the power of his soul has greatly increased, and his realm of soul cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds.
Outside the door, Huazhi, Leiyu, Wang Fulong and others had been waiting for a long time. When they saw him coming out of the customs, they all came forward to congratulate him.
The implication is that Yuan Ming needs to decide whether to give priority to purchasing and what to purchase.
"Are you coming to Baidi City?" When Yuan Ming heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Two days before the report to the city lord, the city lords of Yinshan City, Black Tiger City, Baixiao City and Luwan City either came in person or sent envoys to send congratulatory gifts." Wang Fulong stepped forward and cupped his hands.
"The spiritual stones in the treasury are what I left behind to maintain the daily operation of Baidi City. The amount is less than one-tenth of what I have actually spent over the years. We have spent all our money to buy the rare things on the list.
Everything." Xiying smiled bitterly and explained.
When the power of the last great avenue was absorbed, Yuan Ming felt that the breath in his body flowed more smoothly, and his cultivation state stabilized.
And the magic power has also improved a lot, and now it has reached the middle stage of the Dharma phase. Every move and every move exudes an indescribable power.
Afterwards, Yuan Ming selected his favorite items one by one from the auctions of major chambers of commerce, such as the Golden Phoenix Blood Stone from Tianpeng Chamber of Commerce, the purple dew crimson grass from Penglu Chamber of Commerce, etc., each of which was rare to see.
of treasures.
Xiying asked curiously: "What are you going to do?"
"The city lord's words are serious. We are just following the city lord's policy of running the city and acting step by step. We really don't dare to take credit." Wang Fulong said humbly.
Only then did Yuan Ming realize that Xiying had already paid such a huge price for the future of Baidi City.
Hearing this, Xiying was silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking about the feasibility of it.
"Congratulations to the city lord for successfully breaking through and reaching a higher level of cultivation." Everyone said in unison.
He took out the Heaven Stealing Cauldron, burned incense and possessed Guoguo, and informed Xiying of the good news that he had successfully advanced to the Life Witch.
"Has the list of auction items been sent?" Yuan Ming asked.
Wang Fulong nodded slightly, turned his wrist lightly, and a list exuding the faint scent of ink appeared in his palm.
When Yuan Ming heard this, he felt very relieved.
Seeing this, Yuan Ming knew that the two of them must discuss something important, so he asked, "Is there anything else that needs to be discussed?"
Among them, the progress of Hunyuan Dao Seal is particularly remarkable. Its light is getting brighter and brighter, as if it contains an endless power, waiting to explode completely at a certain moment in the future.
He glanced at everyone and saw that the flowers and thunderstorms were calm and their cultivation had improved. It was obvious that they had reached the peak of level five and were only one step away from level six. He felt very relieved.
Seven days later, Yuan Ming slowly walked out of the secret room.
"That's great, I'll just wait for you to come back." Yuan Ming said happily.
Although Wang Fulong, He Xiuwen and Zheng Heng have made some progress, they are still insufficient in comparison.
"Most of the secrets in other cities and sects in the city have been evacuated, but some are still under observation. We have started to investigate the background of these secrets. Most of them have been identified and registered, and they can be cleaned at any time. But
There are still a few that are hidden very deep and need to be further excavated." Wang Fulong nodded in agreement and continued.
"I thought it would take you at least ten years, but I didn't expect you to advance so quickly. I'm really gratified." Xiying's voice came out from the cauldron, with a hint of excitement.
Only the progress of physical training is a little slow, and it is still at the early stage of the immortal body.
Wang Fulong wrote these down one by one.
"Yes." Wang Fulong nodded in agreement.
"You guys, there's no need to rush. Is there anything else?" Yuan Ming shook his head and said after hearing this.
After Yuan Ming shared his new magical powers with Xi Ying, the two talked about the rare items on the list of the jade slip.
After everyone left, Wang Fulong and He Xiuwen stayed behind.
…
After the two of them finished their discussion, Yuan Ming returned to his room.
Twenty years of hard work were not in vain, but he gained a lot.
The walls are all carefully made of precious wood. The green-gray color looks simple and solemn, echoing and blending with the atmosphere of the World Tree.
Stepping into it, you feel the aura is more intense, as if you are in a fairyland.
After Yuan Ming inquired about the current situation of Baidi City and the movements of the demon clan, he called the Five Elements Boy to take out some rare elixirs from the Shura Palace elixir garden and distributed them to everyone as rewards.
I saw that although this giant tree has shrunk a lot now, it still stands tall and towering into the sky. Looking up, the branches and leaves are lush and layer upon layer, almost covering the entire sky.
Under the shade of the World Tree, a green bamboo stands tall and graceful, emitting a faint aura, as if a halo surrounds it.
