Chapter 129 Lingyun Sect after the war

"Ah, why?" the two old men asked in surprise.

"Because I want to repay Lingyun Sect's favor. Without them, I won't be able to regain my consciousness."

"Chen, we can't make the decision on this matter. We need to convene representatives of the Holy Clan to make a joint decision."

"Why do you want to invade the human race this time?"

“There’s no particular reason, it’s just that I haven’t done this for a long time.

According to the ancestral teachings, every few hundred years, there will always be a major or minor war with the human race.

This can hone the saints and demons, eliminate some useless waste, and allow potential groups or individuals to evolve to promote the strength of the bloodline."

"I understand. You go and gather everyone, and I'll tell them."

Chen ordered in a deep voice.

"Okay, I'll take care of it right away, Huo Tong, you stay here with Chen."

The old man in gray robe bowed to accept the order and exited the tent.

…

Considering that Jin Ziming was recovering from his serious injury, the Great Elder Tao Xianyao did not arrange for him to go to the city to fight immediately, but only did some preparation and coordination work in the branch.

One day later, Lin Xi came to visit and called him to the nearby teahouse.

The witch's eyes flashed, and she asked with a sweet smile:

"How about it, Jin Zi, have you and your Fairy Ye settled our matters?"

Jin Ziming felt dizzy when he heard this and could only reply:

"Not yet, I feel the time is not yet ripe."

"Hey, I looked like I was scaring you. I was just kidding you."

"Don't make such a joke, I can't stand it."

"What's your friend Zhu Chen's background?"

Lin Xi changed the subject and suddenly asked.

"What's up?"

“That night I asked him two questions about spiritual practice, and his answers were very insightful. The angle of thinking was very strange, but it really worked.

Before I could ask the third question, he suddenly said:

‘You have a pure-blooded kitten in your spirit beast bag, right?’

There is a Soul Restriction on that bag, so it cannot be sensed inside or outside, but he actually discovered You Ji inside."

"Is there no problem?"

"What could be the problem? But he nervously told me that he wanted to give me and You Ji a chance."

"Wow, Lin Xi, you've made a profit then. If he makes a move, it won't be ordinary. What will he give you?"

"He passed a section of the technique into my consciousness and asked me to give it to You Ji to practice, saying that with her qualifications, she can practice to the fifth level.

Until then, let me contact you and take You Ji to him, and he can help arrange a teacher.

If Youji's understanding and luck are strong enough, she can be promoted to level six.

He also said that once you master this technique, you will understand how to form a combined attack with me, and you can be my helper in the future.

But how can I believe it? He is just a golden elixir monk, but he can actually provide the skills of fifth- and sixth-level monsters."

The witch said blankly.

"Lin Xi, I can't tell you too much yet, but I can tell you responsibly that what he said must be true. Let Youji practice well."

"I've already given it to her. It's like that guy has found a treasure. Now he doesn't bother me at all and is completely immersed in cultivation."

"That's good. I'll feel more at ease if you have a high-level helper in the future."

Lin Xi had unconditional trust in Jin Ziming. After taking this reassurance, he chatted for a while and then returned to the Demon Sect's headquarters.

She is practicing very hard now, and she only wants to be promoted to Nascent Soul, so that she will not be too far behind Ye Ranyi in terms of cultivation.

That night, the late-sixth-level Black Eagle, who commanded the demon tribe in the first battle, inexplicably broke through the city defense formation.

The human race dispatched two high-level Mahayana Lords and finally forced this guy to flee.

But the moment the formation broke open, Jin Ziming's sound transmission jade talisman received a message:

"Kill the two disobedient ones, settle the matter, and withdraw the troops tomorrow.

I will return to the Holy City, and if we have a chance, we can come and meet you someday."

The next morning, the demon tribe really began to retreat, and after a few hours, they all disappeared from the sight of the city wall guards.

The human race was both excited and puzzled.

The joint headquarters sent several powerful fusion experts to sneak into the monster forest to gather information.

The information they got back was even more shocking:

"There is a divine bird called Dapeng in Lingyun Sect's Holy Sword Peak. During the war, it broke through the soul restriction and restored its memory.

This is a saint with extremely noble blood. Out of gratitude to the Lingyun Sect, he came to the front line and asked the demon clan to end this war."

This news is so dramatic and unbelievable.

However, the information obtained from several channels is all the same, making people unable to believe it.

The joint headquarters announced the end of the war and asked all factions to retreat in batches in order to prevent the monsters from fighting back.

As for how to reward Lingyun Sect's special contributions, a decision will be made after the seven super sects discuss it.

Although this war between the two clans did not last long, it caused huge losses to each faction.

In particular, the sixteen first-level sects suffered a devastating blow at the level of high-level combat power in the Mahayana realm.

Some people with keen minds are beginning to predict that the pattern of Hongqing Cultivation World may change due to this.

Among the second-level sects, powerful sects such as Lingyun Sect and Qingyu Sect inevitably have thoughts of reaching a higher level.

The rewards for Lingyun Sect are finally announced:

“Within fifty years, the number of spiritual stones paid by Lingyun Sect to Shang Zong every year will be reduced by 30%;

Controlled by the super sect, the precious ores from outside the territory that were previously only allocated to the first-level sects will be allocated to the Lingyun Sect with 50% of the first-level sects’ share in the next ten years.”

These two measures have brought considerable benefits to the Lingyun Sect. Compared with losing a fifth-level spiritual beast, it is a huge profit.

In addition, as the key sect that ended the war between the two clans, its reputation in the world of cultivation is also very helpful for attracting outstanding talents.

Lovers and friends left one after another, and Jin Ziming returned to his business and practice.

As the phoenix energy was refined bit by bit by the "Kunpeng Tongtian Jue", his cultivation level reached the peak level of the middle stage of the golden elixir.

After the war, everything was desolate. The mines in Lei Ming's jurisdiction were greatly damaged by the demon clan, and many of the high-quality spiritual stones and minerals mined were plundered.

Lingyun sect members need to go to various places with customers to confirm losses, repair or replace damaged equipment, and there are endless complicated things.

The huge cost of the war needs to be borne by all levels of sects.

As if God intended to embarrass the Hongqing cultivation world, starting from this year, the number of new mineral veins detected by various factions decreased significantly.

The war costs they need to share are astronomical, and each faction has to reduce the purchase of new mining machines.

In order to save spiritual stones, many sects try their best to make use of old equipment, and the mining is also undertaken by themselves instead of being entrusted.

This was the main source of income for the Lingyun Sect, and the sect's life suddenly became difficult.

Moreover, according to the terms of the contract, in the event of an unpredictable disaster such as a beast tide, the contractor needs to share the losses with the customer, which in turn requires the Lingyun Sect to spend a large sum of spiritual stones.

The leader, Jiang Zhe, is far-sighted and foresees that this cold winter has just begun. Before other sects have fully awakened, they must prepare in advance.

The Lingyun Sect made a move that shocked the world of cultivation and even cut off their arms in order to survive.

They sold Wanfa Peak to a sect from the Zide world called Moyu Sect.

The other party has always wanted to come to Hongqingjie to develop, and it is said that the transaction price was very good.

Through this transaction, Lingyun Sect finally accumulated a fortune.

So he secretly worked hard, invested in the research and development of new products and elders who had the potential to advance to the Mahayana realm, and began to accumulate strength for advancing to the first level of the sect.

Changes have not stopped, and some innovative measures to survive are promulgated from time to time.

As soon as he came to the branch that day, Sun Xia came to gossip.

"I heard that there is a new policy. As long as you have been employed for more than 20 years and are not the backbone of a core position, you can apply to leave.

The sect will give you a generous sum of spiritual stones.

If multiple people leave together to create a new sect together, the Lingyun Sect will even support them in terms of spiritual stones or business.

Hall Master, you won’t leave, will you?”
