Shopkeeper Yaowangxuan used the word "ye" very cleverly.
It seems that many forces actually know the information Mu Chunyang gave to Jiang Li.
And they all covet Momen.
As for the purpose, I guess it is not much different from Jiang Li.
"Our Chongshan League naturally intends to join the Si Shen Shen Temple, so Shopkeeper Jiang is also a sensible person, isn't he?"
Jiang Li didn't speak too clearly, but the shopkeeper Yao Wangxuan nodded clearly.
"I understand. It's just that although the Momen are at the end of their strength, they have very strong personalities."
"To be honest, I, Yaowang Xuan, also had the intention to recruit them, but they also rejected me."
"I'm afraid it won't be easy for Alliance Leader Jiang Li to succeed."
"However, although no one has found the Momen headquarters yet, it is not difficult to contact them. You see, there are people from the Momen over there."
The shopkeeper Yao Wangxuan pointed towards the corner of the exchange venue. Jiang Li was indeed there and saw several figures in black, standing there quietly.
They were as silent as a few pieces of wood, not a breath of breath leaked from their bodies, and they did not attract any attention.
After Jiang Li got closer, he realized that they were really made of wood.
It seems that in order to prevent harassment from other sects, they have also put a lot of effort into participating in such grand gatherings, and only use puppets to participate.
This Mo Sect is also a small and medium-sized sect in the Eastern Region. With its excellent defense methods, it is somewhat famous in the world of immortality.
During their heyday, they naturally applied for the procedures to join the Si Temple, just like most of the capable sects in the Eastern Region.
Got here but no issues yet.
The reason why this sect has become the target of many sects wanting to annex it is that the Mo sect is now on the verge of extinction.
As I said before, if you want to join the Si Shen Temple, if you don't have the recommendation of a superior Si Shen, and you can't contribute to the Eastern Immortal Cultivation World in other ways, you can only prove yourself through the war with the Armored Demon.
But in war, there are no immortals.
Due to the heavy casualties, there are definitely not a few sects that have been expelled from the world of immortality.
And this Momen fell into such a bad quagmire because it did not correctly estimate its own strength.
In the long war, relying on machine defense and the secret technique of puppets, Momen successfully killed more than 600,000 armor-faced trolls.
This achievement has exceeded more than 80% of the forces in the Eastern Region.
But in the process, they also suffered continuous losses, which led to a lack of support. In the end, due to lack of manpower, the armor-faced demon broke through the defensive fortress in a large-scale raid.
In that battle, Momen lost its last batch of viable combat forces and was no longer able to continue participating in the war against the trolls.
However, the more than 600,000 battle achievements they made were not in vain, and because of this, they attracted the attention of many other forces.
Because the Temple of God stipulates that a force can add up the military merits of two subordinate forces, that is, the sum of the three can reach one million, even if the conditions are met.
That is, if the Chongshan Alliance absorbs the Momen and becomes a subordinate force, then the 600,000 battle merits can be directly attributed to them.
As long as the agreement is reached, a lot of trouble can be saved. It can also avoid unnecessary casualties among the monks of the Chongshan Alliance.
This is the information Mu Chunyang gave Jiang Li, and it is also the reason why Mo Sect has become the target of many sects.
However, various forces also put forward many conditions and promises during this period, but Momen did not agree to any of them due to certain considerations.
Their Momen headquarters has also been well hidden, and its defense capabilities are extremely excellent.
In addition, the forces targeting them are all small forces that have not yet joined the Si Temple, and their abilities are relatively limited.
That's why it has been able to hold on for so long without giving in under the pressure of other forces.
This also gave the Chongshan League a chance to compete.
Jiang Li walked around and walked towards the Momen amidst the sounds of other monks bargaining.
He walked to Momen's table without explaining his purpose, but just looked at their exchange goods like an ordinary customer.
Just as he thought, the table was full of various assembled mechanical creations.
"What's this?"
Jiang Li picked up a puppet wooden bird on the other party's table, with an interested look on his face.
This wooden bird originally stood on a slender wooden bar. It looked very lifelike, and its movements and expressions were almost the same as those of a real bird. It could also comb its feathers and eat wood chips.
From Jiang Li's perspective, he could easily tell that the soul of a real bird was stuffed into this wooden bird through special means, making its movements so real.
The soul of a bird is inherently fragile and insignificant. Generally speaking, it will even dissipate immediately after death.
But now, the other party can take it out completely and stuff it into the body of a puppet.
This method of dealing with the soul is exquisite and clever.
Jiang Li felt that this method might also be of great use to him.
Unexpectedly, I just took a casual look and found something good.
He stretched out a finger, and the bird flapped its wooden wings. It actually flew up and landed on Jiang Li's finger, looking at him curiously.
This bird may not even know that it is dead.
"What a sophisticated technique. How can I sell this wooden bird?"
Jiang Li asked with a smile.
When he praised him, a shorter puppet behind the wooden table immediately beamed.
"Hehehehe, Sister Yaoyao, Aunt Mei, I won! The first one to sell was the puppet I made."
"Hey, if you are discerning, if you want it, I will sell this wooden bird to you for a hundred spiritual stones."
The little puppet's facial expressions are lifelike, and he is beaming with joy as he laughs, almost no different from a real person. It can be seen that the technology of this Momen is indeed much better than that of Qimen Hall in the Sutra Valley.
However, such a bird-shaped puppet, which is almost the same as an ordinary bird and has no use at all, is indeed a bit expensive to sell for one hundred spirit stones.
"Xiaomi, be polite and don't talk nonsense."
"This guest, I'm sorry, it's just a child's nonsense. This thing is of no use. If the guest likes it, just give me three or five spiritual stones, that's all."
At this time, a soft female voice sounded from the side, but it was another puppet who spoke.
This Mohist puppet is really powerful. Jiang Li could see a kind of delicate beauty from the cold and hard wooden face of the puppet.
If you don't have any artistic talent, you really can't survive in Momen.
Jiang Li took out another medium-grade spiritual stone from his arms and placed it on the table.
"No, I think it is worth the price."
After speaking, Jiang Li blew a breath at the wooden bird.
Immediately, something magical happened. Under the power of magic, the Momen puppet quickly transformed into a bird-shaped wood demon, truly taking on a life of its own.
And it is still a wood demon that is not weak and has reached the level of foundation building.
The newly reborn wooden bird vibrated its wings, and its small body began to rotate rapidly around a few people. At the last turn, it stopped on the short puppet.
"It seems like it really likes you, so please return it to its original owner."
Jiang Li smiled and returned the wood demon to the other party.
They also checked it immediately. It looked like the puppet wood bird just now, but in a blink of an eye, the puppet's joints had healed, but it could still move freely.
There are also two layers of leaves growing on the surface of the wood bird as feathers. If the whole body was not made of wood, it would look no different from a real bird.
Several Mu family members were also quite surprised by the magical method of ancient sorcery.
This ability to casually enlighten monsters is indeed very powerful. If all their puppets can receive this kind of enlightenment, wouldn't their power be greatly increased in an instant?
The magic of enchantment is magical, but Jiang Li's magic of enchantment has not actually reached this level.
Prior to this, Jiang Li had only successfully enlightened two real wood demons. One was his vehicle, the wooden dragon splitting the empty seat, and the other was the guardian wood that he had placed in the Jiang family's ancestral home.
Demon.
The others are actually temporary items that will dissipate when their spiritual energy is exhausted.
But with this bird today, he knew clearly that he had succeeded again.
It's not because of his progress in sorcery, but because a bird soul has been stuffed into this puppet in advance.
Under the influence of the magic point, the two combine with each other and become a real bird-shaped wood demon.
"This is... alive!"
It was a relatively short puppet, obviously controlled by a little girl. When it met the newly born wood demon, it was like getting a new toy, and it couldn't put it down.
But the faces of the other Momen puppets suddenly became serious.
Because at this time, two elders from the Chongshan League also stood behind him.
"From Momen, I am Jiang Li, the leader of the Chongshan League. I want to establish a long-term friendly cooperative relationship with Guimen. I wonder if we can meet in person."
Only then did Jiang Li reveal his identity and intentions.
There is actually nothing to hide.
Jiang Li got some information from Yao Wangxuan, and the Mo family has not been having a good life lately.
Several sects are looking for them and intend to use violent means to force them to surrender.
They must be in urgent need of help now. As long as the conditions are right, I believe they will not refuse.
It's just Momen's persistence that still surprised Jiang Li. These puppets became even more serious after hearing that he revealed his identity.
"Sorry, our Momen will not bow to any force. Please come back."
They obviously regard the Chongshan Alliance as a villain sect that takes advantage of others' danger.
With the strength Mo Sect currently possesses, no sect is willing to have a good negotiation with them.
Other forces are not willing to exchange it at equal value, and the Momen is not willing to hand over the military exploits of their fellow sects who risked their lives to others in vain.
This has persisted until now.
Jiang Li didn't force it, he just put another communication talisman on the table.
"As for cooperation, please don't refuse in a hurry. I am very interested in Momen's puppets. You have also seen the reason."
"My spell can greatly strengthen the puppet. After transforming into a wood demon, not only will the puppet become stronger, but it will no longer rely on the monk's remote control."
"I believe this is very important for Momen now."
"In addition, our Chongshan League is a united alliance organization, and there is no so-called distinction between superiors and subordinates."
"If you are interested, this is my communication talisman. Put it on the spirit stone and you can contact me."
The other party hesitated for a moment and put the talisman away.
"In this case, I will say goodbye today."
Jiang Li nodded and left here.
Now the Momen has been crippled in the war with the armor-faced trolls, and there are not many monks left, only two or three big cats and kittens.
Even if one person can control ten puppets, the combat power formed is quite limited.
But now they are facing pressure from other sects.
I believe it would be difficult for them to refuse this opportunity to quickly increase their combat power.
Immediately after they left, another fat monk walked up and started talking to the puppets of Momen.
It's just that their way of talking is obviously not as harmonious as Jiang Li's.
After the transaction at Wanyang Tower was completed, all the monks took the stone platform again and left this island of clouds and mist.
And the island gradually rose into the sky again.
When Jiang Li and others left Fengyang City, they discovered hundreds of deep craters that seemed to have been struck by meteorites a hundred miles away in the other direction.
It seems that those monks actually took action against the people of Wantu Clan.
Jiang Li admires such courage.
And judging from the situation on the battlefield, no one side has an absolute advantage. It seems that the Wantu Clan has really encountered a tough situation this time.
Jiang Li very much hopes that Wan Tumen will suffer a big loss, so that they will have less pressure to deal with it in the future.
....
The headquarters of the Eastern Region Chongshan Alliance, in Jiang Li's personal courtyard.
After rejecting a group of female cultivators who got lost and went to the wrong door, Jiang Li was still the only one living in the huge alliance leader's courtyard.
He didn't arrange any maids or servants, so the place seemed a bit deserted.
At this time, Jiang Li opened up a hidden cave beneath the most heavily defended quiet room in the courtyard.
At the end of the cave is a wide underground space with several secret passages connecting every corner of the entire stronghold.
This place is very secluded, and only the special department of Chongshan League's Hard Stone can enter and exit.
The core of the stubborn stone department is underneath Jiang Li's quiet room.
The terrain here is empty and there isn't much.
There are only three black jade soul-locking boxes, a special spiritual mine, and a Buddhist gold statue.
This black jade soul lock box contains the ghosts and souls collected by Manjianghong Inn and transported with the second batch of teams from Dazhong Mountain.
However, unlike the previous cheap soul-containing cloth bags, this soul-locking box can store up to 100,000 ghosts. And with the nourishment of black jade, the souls can be maintained for a long time and will not dissipate easily.
Jiang Li also spread a layer of Bianhua flowers on the bottom of the box, which will calm the ghosts and ensure safety.
Looking at these 300,000 souls, Jiang Li was very satisfied, and he was worthy of being the leader of the alliance.
With the help of his status as leader, Manjianghong Inn has easily opened in every corner of Dazhong Mountain, and in his official capacity, it has become a link between the world of immortals and weak monsters.
Leaving aside other benefits, in just a short period of time, those weak monsters had collected 300,000 souls for him.
Jiang Li was touched by the hard work of these little monsters. If this continued, Jiang Li was afraid that the waste ore produced from the spirit stone mine, which existed as the currency of the little monsters, would not be able to keep up with the supply.
