Countless forces have fallen and countless forces have risen, cruelly dividing the cake and dividing the spheres of influence.
In the midst of the division of power, they mainly quarreled with each other, but after the quarrel they became very harmonious.
During the division of territory, the Lu family expanded its strength to the southeastern region, bordering the Wu State, on the basis of the original territory.
Within the jurisdiction, there are vast plains that can support a large population; many rivers pass through them, and there are many lakes dotted here and there; there are also many mountains scattered among them, with spiritual stones stored in them, and some rare minerals.
ore.
It’s just that the reserves are much lower.
As for spiritual veins, most of them are in the process of being exhausted.
In the early days of the founding of the Chu Kingdom, there were natural spiritual veins, spiritual mountains, mines, etc. everywhere in the territory, and some elixirs were everywhere. As long as the monks searched carefully, they could find some natural spiritual veins and open caves on them for practice.
A blessed land; as long as you search carefully and dig mines, you can unearth spiritual stones, spiritual materials, etc. underground.
But after thousands of years of mining and excavation by monks, the population increased, and the consumption of resources was huge. Most of the original minerals, natural spiritual veins, naturally grown elixirs, etc. in Chu State were excavated, and some were left.
Mineral veins are also difficult to mine.
Today's Chu State can be said to have exhausted its mineral veins and exhausted its resources.
Fortunately, this is a world of cultivation, and cultivation is productivity. The more powerful a monk is, the more powerful he is in transforming the world.
Powerful monks can use their own cultivation to arrange formations and mobilize the power of heaven and earth to create all things. They can create artificial spiritual stones, artificial spiritual veins, artificial ores, etc.
As of now, in Chu State, the nine-layer spiritual stones are artificial spiritual stones, the seventh-layer spiritual veins are artificial spiritual veins, and many spiritual medicines are also artificially cultivated. As for the Xuanming Divine Iron, the Creation Divine Iron, and the Basalt Stone
, Sky-Mending Stone and many other refining materials are also artificial in more than three layers.
Now, in the world of cultivation, there are seven levels of cultivation resources, as well as certain fifth-level resources, etc., all of which can be artificially produced.
It's just artificial manufacturing, which has the problem of high cost, high requirements for monks' cultivation, etc... Of course, the biggest problem is that monks don't have time.
The world of cultivating immortals is not a money society.
In a money society and capital society, everything is for profit. In order to make money, you will give up everything and work hard to create many products for profit.
But in the world of cultivating immortals, cultivation is the most important, and many monks are busy practicing, focusing on improving their cultivation.
Without cultivation, no matter how much money you have, you can't keep it.
For example, if a foundation-building monk has wealth comparable to a golden elixir, but doesn't know how to restrain himself, and spends money lavishly everywhere, a strong man may come to destroy the family tomorrow.
…
Looking at the map, the territory and sphere of influence divided by the Lu family were divided.
The many true gentlemen present were all interested enough and wanted to give him face.
But at the same time of joy, there is also a hint of worry.
In the territory, spiritual veins were laid; a large amount of spiritual stones were spent to set up heaven and earth formations and artificial spiritual materials; and golden elixir monks were encouraged to create artificial spiritual stones.
There are also a large number of artificial cultivation of elixirs, artificial cultivation of spiritual trees, etc., which all require a large number of people and a large number of monks.
"It seems that policies have been enacted to encourage population!"
Lu Xuanji thought.
Whether it is artificial spiritual stones, artificial spiritual materials, artificial spiritual veins, artificial elixirs, etc., they are all inseparable from people.
Only with a large population can we develop and create man-made things.
Otherwise, they would just rely on senior monks to manually manufacture them, which would result in insufficient quantity and insufficient time.
…
On the map, the major forces divided their territories, and everyone nodded.
"The next step is the barter conference, where everyone can exchange some resources and precious items!"
Feiyu Zhenjun said.
Place some items on the table and tell them what you want to exchange.
Some other Nascent Soul monks also placed some things on the table.
Soon, the barter stage entered.
The two parties began to enter the exchange stage and exchanged some items.
Gu fear
Lu Xuanji also took out an animal skin roll, a pill bottle, some spiritual fruits, etc., placed them on the table, and started trading.
In previous lives, money was not everything.
Money cannot buy nuclear weapons, nor can it buy top-notch technology.
For example, if a country has top-level fighter jets, top-level aircraft carriers, or other high-tech defense-related products, and a certain big business owner asks me how much money I need to spend to purchase this top-level weapon, purchase this advanced technology, etc... the purchase will definitely fail.
Many times, money cannot buy high technology.
If you want to obtain a certain high technology, you can only replace it with high technology of the same level.
In the world of cultivating immortals, spiritual stones can buy any number of things, but a few top-notch things cannot be bought with money.
Certain items can only be bartered.
Observing the items present, Lu Xuanji actually found some items that were beneficial to him.
The teleportation array map contains detailed techniques and records on how to arrange the teleportation array. It can teleport 30,000 kilometers at a time and is a short-range teleportation array.
Martial arts stone helps monks improve their understanding.
Fifth-grade Xuanming Iron can improve the grade of Butian Cauldron.
"Fellow Taoist, how much does the teleportation array cost?"
Lu Xuanji stepped forward and asked.
This fellow Taoist is called Xingchen Zhenjun.
"It can be three Nascent Soul Pills, it can be fifth-grade creation fruit, or it can be other medicinal materials!" Xingchen Zhenjun said: "I am already at the sixth level of Yuanying. I have been stuck in this realm for a while. I need to pass through it.
The magic pill breaks the bottleneck."
"Okay, I have three creation fruits!"
Lu Xuanji said,
He took three creation fruits and handed them over.
"Fellow Daoist, you are so generous!" Xingchen Zhenjun said, directly handing over the picture scroll.
Lu Xuanji took the scroll and analyzed the content carefully. It contained pictures, materials, specific methods, etc. It was written in extremely detail. It can be said that he taught you how to set up the teleportation array step by step.
After analyzing for a while, it was confirmed that it was correct.
Xingchen Zhenjun said: "To set up a short-range teleportation array, the material requirements are low. Only fifth-grade materials are enough; in terms of cultivation, only the Nascent Soul realm is enough. But if you want to set up a mid-range teleportation array, you need sixth-grade materials.
His cultivation level is at least that of becoming a god."
"As for the long-distance teleportation array, it can be teleported across states. It requires a lot of materials, at least level seven. I won't say more about these!"
"I have the fifth grade here, Void Stone, Taiyi Divine Crystal, and Earth Spirit Black Wood. Fellow Taoist, you need these three major materials!"
Sell the drawings in the front and materials in the back, one after another.
"need!"
Lu Xuanji said: "But I don't have any spiritual stones anymore. Do you think this is okay?"
As he spoke, he threw a gourd.
True Lord Xingchen opened the gourd and looked at the spiritual fruit inside, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes.
This is a fifth-grade life-extending fruit that can extend the life of a monk by five hundred years.
"well!"
True Lord Xingchen said: "We need three life-extending fruits!"
"There are not three, only two!"
"Two is two!"
Just like that, the deal was quickly concluded.
True Lord Xingchen was happy in his heart. Among his expectations, he would be satisfied if he could trade the next life-extending fruit. Who would have thought that it would be two.
Lu Xuanji was also overjoyed. He originally planned to successfully trade three life-extending fruits, but he only needed two. He made a small profit.
