As the city lord, Jiang Li naturally hopes to develop Fengdu City into a more powerful and prosperous city.
That's why the ghost gate was opened before, attracting a small number of casual cultivators, and developing many ghost town-specific industries to entertain them.
However, the sudden influx of more than 100 million people this time was really something I had never thought of before.
These more than 100 million people are not mortals and ghosts that are easy to deal with, but monks who are even more troublesome.
The current area of Fengdu City is many times larger than the large modern cities of previous generations.
But the buildings inside are mostly bungalows, small buildings, and courtyards.
The population accommodation capacity under the average area is far from comparable to that of high-rise residential buildings or even some "pigeon cages".
If the Changle Underground Palace below is not used, it will obviously not be enough to live in.
However, the Changle Underground Palace is the former residence of the last emperor, and there are still many secrets hidden inside, which are not convenient for outsiders to see.
Jiang Li has the most, which means that the periphery of the underground palace is open to the direct descendants of the Chongshan League to live. It is impossible to let outsiders in.
From this point of view, Fengdu City still has to be expanded in a short period of time.
Jiang Li waved his hand to sweep away an open space in the city, and threw down the fragment of Afang Palace he was dragging.
After the building debris fell into the city, the ground there was like quicksand, swallowing up the building.
Through the city lord's stone tablet, I learned that this thing would be a great benefit to Fengdu City!
At that time, the emperor's lineage was established through betrayal and annexation of the emperor.
Now the successor of the Human Emperor and his city can be regarded as getting back what should belong to them.
The treasures stored in this building were collected into the Fengdu Treasure House to enrich the history.
The materials of the building itself are digested by the city and turned into its own thing.
Then the whole city, as if it had taken a powerful tonic, began to expand again under Jiang Li's control.
If all the buildings of the 300-mile Alpan Palace could be absorbed, the newly added area alone would be enough to accommodate these monks.
"It seems that we have to cede some interests and exchange some more building ruins with the Si Shen Temple."
Jiang Li released Qin Shuman and handed this part of the matter directly to her.
With the two palace masters Beixuan and Xibai nearby, no one dared to cause Fengdu City to suffer even if Jiang Li was not there.
In addition, the lower level monks in the Qi training period and foundation building period have always had relatively low requirements for quality of life.
As long as the rent and house price are cheap enough, and privacy and security are guaranteed, they can completely accept a more crowded life.
While expanding, we can also start to transform these ancient buildings in Fengdu City into large high-rise buildings that can accommodate more people.
Among the more than 100 million people, more than half are casual cultivators, and many are from small forces that don't even have cultivators.
Anyway, no one in Si Shen Temple is free to arrange their departure for the time being.
And even if the gate of Fengdu City is opened, the environment of Beiyin Mountain will prevent them from taking a step out.
Therefore, in a short period of time, more than 100 million leeks cannot escape.
Jiang Li was very generous and gave them a month of free residence.
In the next three months, there will be a special discount of 50% off whether buying or renting a house.
And as long as they have settled here for more than ten years without any bad records, Jiang Li will also agree to take in their souls after their death.
Let them have the freedom to choose after death and live and work peacefully in a ghost town or a dream world instead of wandering in the wilderness.
If you have settled for more than a hundred years and made certain contributions, you can later be converted into a formal Yincai and serve in Fengdu City or many Renhuang temples.
I receive incense every month, which makes my life very uncomfortable.
It is almost like living the yin life after death as the yang life and living another life.
This kind of treatment is unique in the entire Eastern Region Immortal Cultivation World. This opportunity cannot be missed and will not wait until the time comes.
I believe that after experiencing the benefits of Fengdu City, many people will choose to stay and live in this ghost town.
As time went by, Jiang Li threw out some more skills, life-extending pills, Jiuyou Earth Fruit and other treasures.
What a ghost town? From now on, this will be the holy city of Fengdu that thousands of monks yearn for!
With a group of strong men and tens of thousands of ghost soldiers, he returned to the area near Afang Palace.
Jiang Li spent more spiritual energy to open ten large ghost gates in succession, so that his men could easily transport the remains of Afang Palace.
A large group of evil spirits that everyone usually punished now appeared so openly and openly in front of many powerful men in the Si Temple, causing many people to look at them with suspicion.
But no one was stupid enough to kill them. Instead, many earthly immortals who had been favored by the Lord of Fengdu City came to contact them.
The strength of Fengdu City is at least equivalent to the sum of the three superior gods.
Having a good relationship with them will definitely bring you all the benefits and no harm.
After Jiang Li proposed to exchange for the ruins of Afang Palace, most of the forces immediately agreed, including those from the Yun Mansion, who were even willing to give it away for free.
It actually didn't take much time to handle things here.
After Jiang Li explained a few more words, he activated his emergency boots, stepped on the whirlwind, and flew towards the coast of the Eastern Region.
....
Offshore of the eastern region of Cangyun Continent, Land of Storms, Hualong Island.
Since the dragon head of Hualong Island has repeatedly refused to be recruited by Si Shen, it is said that Si Shen is currently considering downgrading Hualong Island to a lower level Si Shen.
However, Gu Hei Tian Chou really had no choice about this.
Because of the previous battle with an intruder, he was seriously injured and on the verge of death.
The dragon's body was brutally attacked by the Human Emperor's halberd. More than half of its bones and flesh were lost, and all of its dragon blood had been lost.
Since then, he has never stepped out of the retreat.
He retreated on the island to heal his injuries, and after spending many years of accumulated elixirs, he could barely control the deterioration of his injuries. Recovery was really far away.
Without the help of elixirs above the earth level or rare healing treasures, it would take at least a hundred years of hard work to barely recover.
Even if he is demoted to a lower level, he can keep a low profile and avoid the prying eyes of the outside world.
puff!
But today, Gu Heitian Chou, who was recovering from his injuries, suddenly opened his eyes and spurted out a mouthful of dragon blood.
A sudden bout of restlessness disrupted his healing process and added to his injuries.
With a wry smile, this kind of whim of the Earth Immortal is often of great value.
"Has an enemy come to your door?"
In his sense, something quite bad was about to happen.
boom!
Sure enough, it didn't take more than a few breaths.
There was a violent tremor on the ground beneath him.
The retreat cave he opened was about to collapse.
I hurriedly ran outside and found that a huge underwater volcano erupted on the edge of the Storm Land.
If this was a natural disaster, it would be nothing.
But judging from his experience, there is no potential volcanic eye in that area.
Such a violent outbreak suddenly occurred, I am afraid it was not a natural disaster, but man-made!
With the billowing smoke, first a flaming lotus flew high into the sky, and then, vast swaths of sea water were lifted up by an unreasonable force, and a terrifying monster followed closely behind.
The two sides collided in the air.
The flame lotus suddenly exploded.
The aftermath of the spread blew away the defensive formation of Hualong Island on the spot, causing a large number of casualties on it.
Because the ground veins of Hualong Island had been taken away by Jiang Liyi before.
There is no support for the formation here, so its power is naturally greatly weakened. It no longer has the power it once had to control the wind wall to defend against foreign enemies.
He squinted his eyes and stared at the flaming figure that emerged from the explosion.
He seemed to know that person.
"That's...the Lord of Yan Dynasty!"
"That adult was...actually beaten away!"
How could one of the Three Divine Pillars appear here!?
Who is that monster following him?
He has been in seclusion for only a short period of time, why can't he keep up with the changes in the world?
Under the horrified gaze of Gu Heitian Chou, after the flame lotus was exploded, a figure continued to fly towards the outer sea.
But the monster flapped its wings, and its speed was still faster than the flame escape light.
An unlikeable monster actually completely suppressed one of the three divine pillars in the Eastern Immortal Realm.
After all, he is also an Earth Immortal. Although he is just an ordinary Earth Immortal, you can still tell who is strong and who is weak.
The divine pillar, which is like a god in the eyes of countless monks, is actually extremely difficult to parry.
You can only use special magic to avoid it, and every time you have to collide with it, it will be the ball of flame that is knocked away.
This scene made him think that he was hallucinating.
Fortunately, not long after, a cloud of mist flew over and took the Lord of Yan Chao inside.
Instead, a water man jumped out of it.
The Lord of the Sea Palace shook the Earth Spirit Pearl that had fallen into his hand, then jumped into the sea water and continued to fly towards the outer sea.
The monster was attracted by the spirit bead, gave up on the previous fireman, and continued to pursue its own food.
The cloud and mist also left immediately, and soon disappeared from his sight.
Although he didn't understand what happened, Gu Hei Tian Chou was greatly shocked.
It turns out that there are still people in this world who can’t even deal with the three great pillars!
"However, it seems that I have finally passed this disaster."
There was no danger, which made Guhei Tianchou, who was already determined to die, breathe a sigh of relief.
Isn't this scary?
After looking at the monsters and clouds that were getting further and further away, he decided to go back and continue to retreat.
But at this moment, a hand rested on his shoulder.
"Isn't this the ancient black dragon head? It's such a fate to meet you here!"
Jiang Li, who was riding a whirlwind, had just arrived from behind and happened to see the pirate leader who once put him in a "desperate situation".
So he came up and said hello warmly.
"...Please tell me your name. Hualong Island must have not offended you."
Feeling the pressure on his shoulders, Gu Heitian Chou's whole body stiffened, and his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
It turns out that the ominous premonition that just occurred on a whim was not caused by the three divine pillars and the monster at all, but by this guy wearing the mask.
"Why, you don't recognize me?"
"The Ancient Black Dragon Head is such a noble man who forgets things so much."
"Let me remind you, the injuries on your body were caused by me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tangtang Hualong Island's dragon head was grabbed by the neck and pushed to the ground.
The resistance that came was very weak, and Jiang Li also reduced the strength on his hands a little to avoid accidentally killing him.
Hualong Island is now also a subordinate force of Fengdu City, so it really doesn't look like it without a dragon head in charge.
Wave your hand to open the gate of hell and throw people into it.
Gu Hei Tian Chou, who was seriously injured and had no fighting ability, looked at the group of earthly immortals and demon kings around him, and decisively chose to obey the arrangement.
Fortunately, the other party did not intend to kill him, but only asked him to join the other party's force.
Compared to death, it's pretty good.
At least he left his name on the city lord's stone tablet, and after joining Fengdu City, his injuries were considered to have been cured.
With two Jiuyou trees here, this injury will be healed in just a few days, and not even a scar will be left.
After successfully subduing Gu Hei Tian Chou, Jiang Li continued to move forward.
It took me a while to finally catch up with the misty clouds.
At this time, a pitch-black sea lay ahead, and they were very close to the terrifying outer sea.
The whirlwind crashed into the clouds and mist. Yun Ji had already seen him and naturally let him in.
In the clouds and mist, there were only two people, Yun Ji and the Lord of the Yan Dynasty.
At this moment, the other powerful men from the Temple of God cannot be sent to the battlefield.
"Fellow Daoist Jiuyou, you are still here! Thank you for your help to the world of immortal cultivation in the Eastern Region."
Fengdu City is not a member of the Si Temple, but is still a ghost town that has always been considered a factor of instability.
It's a blessing if you don't cause trouble at this time. I didn't expect it to be such a huge help.
It's like a prodigal son returning home with no money in exchange, which is even more touching.
"You two are welcome, how is the situation now?"
Holding each other’s fists and getting straight to the point.
"Ahead is the dangerous Black Abyss."
"We plan to have the Lord of the Sea Palace take this strange beast from Qin as deep into the outer sea as possible."
"Guide it and enter the territory of the sea beast overlord, and then step away to observe when they collide."
"If we can banish that monster to the sea, the Eastern Region will be temporarily safe."
Jiang Li nodded.
To put it simply, it is pulling monsters.
This monster is too powerful and is superior to them in all aspects.
The only thing that can bully this monster is probably his brain.
Anyway, the world is so big, as long as this monster doesn't stay in the Eastern Region, it won't hinder their affairs.
It is not impossible to lure it to fly far enough away and make it get lost, or to fight directly with a monster in the deep sea, in which both sides will be injured and die.
In this way, although no further secrets can be obtained from the monster.
It can also temporarily solve the current problem.
The world of immortal cultivation in the Eastern Region really needs a period of recuperation.
But this is just the best idea.
With just those eight eyes, Jiang Li felt that it would be difficult for the other party to get lost.
This monster doesn't seem to like water very much and won't stay in the sea for long. As long as it doesn't die, it will probably return to the Eastern Immortal Cultivation World.
If this method doesn't work, then maybe we have to lead it further away.
For example, Heniuzhou, one of the nine states across the sea!
