After swallowing the Xuan Su Sect, the Zi Yang Sect's income tripled. In recent years, it has made profits of hundreds of thousands of spirit stones every year.
With enough spiritual stones, the Ziyang Sect has greatly increased its investment in spiritual fields and spiritual medicine gardens. The size of the Qingyang Mountain Spiritual Medicine Garden has tripled, and the Lingjing Mountain Underground Cave Spiritual Medicine Garden has also restored the supply of spiritual stones.
In recent years, Ziyang Sect's low-level elixirs have become completely self-sufficient and can even be sold to surrounding countries to earn profits.
Although the accumulation of high-grade spiritual stones is not large, over the past eighty years, the sect's treasury has accumulated a stock of 14 million low-grade spiritual stones.
This large sum of spiritual stones is enough to improve the spiritual veins of Lingjing Mountain and Dafang Island.
It is very convenient to upgrade the level of Dafang Island's spiritual veins. The sect's treasury already has a fifth-level high-grade spirit gathering array. This matter does not need to trouble Qing Chan at all, Wang Chengcheng can get it done.
Lingjing Mountain is more troublesome. It requires refining a sixth-level low-grade spirit gathering array.
Refining the sixth-level low-grade spirit-gathering array requires a sixth-level spirit-gathering array disk. The sixth-level spirit-gathering array disk must be smelted using the Magnetic Divine Stone and sixth-level spiritual bones.
When the Oolong Demon King was hunted, the spiritual bones fell into the hands of He Luoqiu, and the Yuanci Divine Stone was relatively rare. I am afraid that he would need to participate in the Qingli Sea and Great Zhou Yuanying Trade Fair.
Now facing pressure from Shenshui Palace and Yunxiao Sect, several Nascent Souls from Ziyang Sect did not dare to act rashly and leave the mountain gate easily.
Once this matter was leaked out, the Yunxiao Sect launched a large-scale invasion, resulting in the loss of the old nest. No one could afford this responsibility.
For the sake of stability, I am afraid we have to wait a while to upgrade the spiritual veins of Lingjing Mountain. At the very least, we need to upgrade the Lingjing Mountain Mountain Protection Formation first.
The mountain protection formation in Lingjing Mountain is only at the fifth level and cannot stop the siege of several Nascent Souls. Once faced with the siege of the Yunxiao Sect, this weakness is also very troublesome.
In the past three thousand years, Yunxiao Sect's luck has been relatively prosperous. More than a thousand years ago, Yunxiao Sect already had seven Nascent Souls. According to the normal momentum, this sect may have more than ten Nascent Soul monks and develop into the largest sect in Qi State.
Unfortunately, the Yunxiao Sect encountered Liu Xuanyan's nemesis. Seven hundred years ago, they discovered that Liu Xuanyan had built a cross-continental teleportation array, and the two Nascent Souls of the Yunxiao Sect came forward to track it.
After a fight, Shen Yuncheng from the third floor of the Nascent Soul was killed, and Ding Qingpeng from the seventh floor of the Nascent Soul was seriously injured and disappeared.
Encountering such a huge setback immediately hurt the Yunxiao Sect and made them dare not act rashly.
Seven hundred years later, another person from the Yunxiao Sect became a Nascent Soul.
However, compared to seven hundred years ago, the strength of Yunxiao Sect's high-level monks has declined. Although Yuan Ying's combat power is slightly stronger than that of Ziyang Sect, it no longer has an overwhelming advantage.
A laborious expedition may not consume as much energy as the Ziyang Sect.
Zhang Zhixuan stood up, put his hands behind his back, walked back and forth slowly, thought deeply for a moment and asked: "After the news of the cross-continental teleportation array was leaked, did the Yunxiao Sect make any changes?"
Liu Guyan said: "Reporting to Master, based on the information sent back by Nianwei and Youqing, Yunxiao Sect has indeed begun to allocate manpower and shrink its strength. Qi State is far away from us, and the few people who come are useless.
The large number of people will inevitably consume a huge amount of food and baggage, which cannot be hidden from our eyes. Moreover, with the Goddess Peak blocking the front, the Yunxiao Sect does not dare to rush in lightly. Once our retreat is cut off, there will be heavy casualties."
Because the Ziyang Sect was established only a short time ago, the Ziyang Sect does not yet have a strict intelligence system. The people responsible for the intelligence of the sect are Xia Youqing and You Nianwei.
Xia Youqing is in charge of Ziyang Tower, and now Ziyang Tower has been opened in Qiguofang City.
People in the city talk a lot, and all kinds of news are true and false. Xia Youqing needs to sort through and summarize all these news.
You Nianwei manages the Zhenzhuan Academy. Most of the disciples in the Zhenzhuan Academy are monks from the Zifu. They can also bring back a lot of information when they travel.
However, both You Nianwei and Xia Youqing are dedicated to cultivation. In the future, sect spies will need to appoint special personnel.
Zhang Zhixuan shook his head and said: "You can't be careless about this kind of thing. I will write a letter now and ask Nianwei to bring it to Gao Mingzhen of the Capturing Dragon Sect. The Capturing Dragon Sect and the Yunxiao Sect are at odds with each other. Maybe he will tell us some details."
Two hundred years ago, Zhang Zhixuan and his wife had some friendship with the monks of the Capturing Dragon Sect. Han Xingkong, the leader of the Capturing Dragon Sect, helped them back then. Since then, the two sides often exchanged letters.
Especially after Qing Chan gave birth to a baby, the monks from the Capturing Dragon Sect were unwilling to break this friendship.
In the past hundred years, Zhang Zhixuan and his wife have also exchanged several letters with Han Xingkong, the great elder of the Qinlong Sect.
Zhang Zhixuan is a decisive person. He immediately wrote a letter and asked You Nianwei to take it to Qi to capture the Dragon Sect.
Qi State's territory is divided into six parts, and Yunxiao Sect can only control a quarter of Qi State's territory, and is unable to block the Ziyang Sect monks from entering Qi State's border.
With Zhang Zhixuan's letter, You Nianwei directly found Han Xingkong, the head of the Capturing Dragon Sect.
Han Xingkong's lifespan is almost 800 years old, and there is only a small chance that he will become a Nascent Soul.
Two hundred years ago, this man's cultivation had reached the ninth level of the Golden Core, which was higher than that of Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan. Unfortunately, in just two hundred years, Zhang Zhixuan and his wife had already given birth to a baby, and Han Xingkong's path was about to end.
In the past two hundred years, he also hit the Nascent Soul bottleneck once, consuming an infant-nurturing pill to no avail.
Although his cultivation level has reached the level of a false infant, he is completely different from the Nascent Soul cultivator, and the status of the two parties is already very different. Hearing You Nianwei revealed that his former friend Zhang Zhixuan had given birth to a baby, Han Xingkong showed a trace of envy on his face, and was quite moved.
Said: "Everything is fate, and no one can control anything! My former friend's cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds, and I, a dying person, am also happy for him.
The Great Elder is now breaking through the realm. It is really not the time to disturb his old man. I will hand over the information about Yunxiao Sect to you. During this period, they are indeed shrinking their strength and redeploying manpower. You must be careful.
There is an expert in the Yunxiao Sect, and it is rumored that he has collected two sixth-level broken pearls. If you want to defend the teleportation array, I am afraid you will face a head-on war."
You Nian nodded slightly and said: "As long as the Yunxiao Sect doesn't come out in force, we are sure to win."
Han Xingkong smiled and said: "You now have five Yuanying monks and the Ziyang Skyfire Talisman as a foundation. If it were not for a two-front battle, the Yunxiao Sect would not be able to win. In the past two hundred years, many conflicts and conflicts have broken out between the Yunxiao Sect and the Pengshan Sect.
, without reconciliation with Master Wuling and the others, Yunxiao Sect would not dare to go on an expedition at all."
Pengshan Sect is a newly established sect. Their sect is located on a large island in the east of Qi State, similar to Tianyuan Island discovered by Zhang Zhixuan and others.
There is also an ancient sect on Pengshan Island. Unfortunately, this island was also destroyed by the ancient war. Even the sixth-order spiritual veins on the island were scattered. In order to repair this spiritual vein, Wuling Zhenren and others also spent a lot of money.
Less cost.
Wuling Zhenren was originally the only casual cultivator in the Qi Kingdom. In order to pass on the Taoist tradition and arrange things after the tribulation, he contacted Tao Longzhen of the Great Zhou Dynasty and Qinglihai Sun Yunying, two Nascent Soul casual cultivators, to jointly establish the Pengshan Sect Taoist Tradition.
Because of its proximity to the Qi State, the Pengshan Sect naturally had some conflicts with the monks of the Qi State.
