Every environment has a problem of carrying capacity. At that time, Tianyun Prefecture could only accommodate one Daogang monk and several Zifu monks. If there were more monks, they could not support them, and they would either have internal strife or annexation.
Therefore, not long after Wang Dao obtained the Kaifu Pill, he embarked on a foreign campaign and plundered a large area of Ninghe Prefecture. Later, as the number of monks increased, he defeated Bishui Pavilion and occupied the territory of Qingshan County.
It developed step by step in this way. If Tianyun State is much stronger than before, the territory has been fixed, so it has been developing the territory in the past few decades.
Nowadays, the land development has also fallen into a bottleneck. There is no shortage of third-level and fourth-level spiritual veins, but there is a lack of time to build up the foundation. The time for the development of Tianyun State is too short.
At this time, the environment of Tianyun Prefecture cannot accommodate so many high-level monks. Just look at Chunyang Palace and you will know that there are a few more Daogang monks under his command than Tianyun Prefecture, but their territory is larger than that of Tianyun Prefecture.
It is much larger and has developed over thousands of years. Whether Chunyang Palace directly governs the three states or later occupies the northern part of Chen State, it is the real sacred land.
Judging from the current situation of Tiansheng Sect, if a way out is not found for these Daogang monks, either Tiansheng Sect will break out into civil strife, or it will have to expand outwards, whether it is going south to the wilderness or going north to annex territory.
Therefore, when the situation did not allow it, Lin Xiao asked them to go out for experience and travel. Lin Xiao himself and some people who had gone out to experience the experience told about the wonderful world outside, and soon attracted a group of ambitious people to come out of Tianyun Prefecture.
The range began to move towards the north of Nanzhou or the direction of Central Continent.
In less than half a year, Lin Xiao left seven Taoist monks behind, and the rest were free to practice. However, at the same time, Lin Xiao named Bai Xixi to stay, and named Yu Tianxiang and Jia Mengran to designate them.
Go to Fenghuo Island.
Bai Zihua has been in charge of Fenghuo Island for almost a hundred years. It has been too long. Lin Xiao needs new confidants to take over Fenghuo Island. Yu Tianxiang cannot handle it alone, so he asks Jia Mengran to assist.
At the same time, it also meant to train Yu Tianxiang's alchemy skills. Lin Xiao was very dissatisfied with Yu Tianxiang's alchemy skills, but this was helpless, because even Bai Xixi couldn't do it. The high-end materials of Tiansheng Sect were monopolized by Li Muxue. They
The number of times the elixir is refined is very small.
That's why Lin Xiao asked Yu Tianxiang to go to Fenghuo Island. With the prosperity of Luo Xinghai, it is relatively easy to collect materials for fourth-level elixirs. And Fenghuo Island has developed for so many years without blood transfusions back to the sect, and has accumulated a lot of financial resources.
, you can also ask Yu Tianxiang to call it.
The two of them were naturally very happy. It was getting harder and harder to improve their cultivation in Tiansheng Sect. There was no reason to refuse to go to new places, let alone to be the boss on their own.
After the two left, Lin Xiao met with Bai Xixi and Li Muxue again. Lin Xiao asked Li Muxue to relax his monopoly on high-end elixirs and give Bai Xixi more opportunities.
Originally, in terms of profit, Muxue's alchemy skills were better, he could produce more elixirs, and he could make more money. But Muxue, you should know that as the leader, I have to consider the long-term development of the sect. I used to tell you
As I said, Tianyun State is too small, Lu State is too small, and Nanzhou is too small. Our journey is to reach the stars and the sea.
So we have to go out sooner or later. What will happen to the sect once we leave? Could it be that we no longer practice Dao Ji Dan? You also know how severely the countries in Southern Continent are restricted by Dao Ji Dan. Without Dao Ji Dan, basically three
It takes only the twelfth floor of the Zi Mansion to produce a Dao Gang monk. It’s all blood and tears.
Master, I understand what you mean. Anyway, I am now at the twelfth level of Daogang. I will need less and less resources in the future. It will take me about twenty years to break through the aura. During this period, I will have all the fourth-level elixirs.
Without interfering, twenty years will be the time when the Dao Fruit Tree matures. At that time, I will also ask Junior Sister Bai to refine one furnace. The remaining two furnaces can produce at least 11 Dao Ji Dan, which is enough for our current use.
how
Leader, senior sister, you...
Bai Xixi, don't be too busy to refuse. This is a major event for the sect. You have no right to refuse. Mu Xue has made it very clear. In twenty years, you will have to upgrade your alchemy skills to the fourth level of high-grade Dao Ji Dan.
, I don’t have high requirements, just two pills, I only need two pills, how about
Yes, Master, I guarantee that I will definitely refine two Daoji Pills by then.
Okay, that's right. You have been following me for a hundred years. Our relationship is naturally close. There is no big problem for Mu Xue to break through the aura. Xixi, you have to work hard.
Lin Xiao nodded and said, Lin Xiao had already told Li Muxue about the key points of Daogang's spiritual light breakthrough. Li Muxue's Ku Rong Jue did not have any special martial arts, so the requirements for the laws of heaven were not high.
And Li Muxue herself is an alchemist, so she also checked the Lingming Pill that Lin Xiao took out. She can use the Lingming Pill. In fact, Li Muxue has a great chance of breakthrough without using the Lingming Pill. She is the Holy Body of Qingmu.
Before the seventh level, it was not difficult. As long as there was enough profound energy to support it, it was not a big deal.
It's just to enhance the fighting power, so he needs to understand more heavenly laws. The fragments of heavenly laws in Lin Xiao's hand can also handle this, so Li Muxue may not need the Lingming Pill by then.
Li Muxue was able to break through the aura so easily, but it was particularly difficult for Bai Xixi. She was already over two hundred years old, and was only seven or eight years younger than Lin Xiao. Now her cultivation level was improving more and more slowly, and she wanted to get to the twelfth level.
It is a bit difficult, it will take a long time, and it is very likely that latecomers will catch up, so when Lin Xiao said this, Bai Xixi felt a little stressed.
The leader can rest assured that Bai Xixi is not the kind of person who covets happiness and will never lag behind the leader for too long.
Bai Xixi said firmly that Wu Gang, the great enemy of the Bai family, had passed away more than ten years ago. Before his death, Wu Gang sent people to Tiansheng Sect to resolve the grievances with the Bai family.
Bai Xixi and others naturally refused, leaving Wu Gang to die in panic. Before his death, Wu Gang had disbanded the Wu family, and all the remaining monks had become rogue cultivators. If they did not disband, they would be exterminated sooner or later, but the rogue cultivators
But life is worse than death, this is more satisfying than taking revenge with one's own hands.
The last bit of obsession disappeared, and the only thing left in the minds of everyone in the Bai family was the pursuit of cultivation, so Bai Xixi and Bai Zichen worked hard.
Lin Xiao comforted her with a few words, and Bai Xixi left first. Li Muxue looked at Bai Xixi's back and said that among the Daogang monks in the sect, the most loyal ones were those who had experienced the Tiansheng Sect's crisis with their master, and they were also the most diligent.
On the contrary, it is those Daogang people. I think many of them have lost their enterprising mentality. They are young, but they marry wives and have children and enjoy themselves happily.
The Taoist monks of Tiansheng Sect are all very young. There are not many who are over 200 years old now. It can be said that their future is very bright. However, many of them have already started to get married and have children, and they have wasted a lot of time on the road.
, the higher the cultivation level, the higher the proportion of singles. It does not mean that these people have cut off their passions, but that their life span is so long and the road is so difficult and dangerous that they cannot be distracted.
This is one of the disadvantages of the younger monks in the sect. If they are too young, they cannot see far. In addition, the sect is becoming more and more familial. Those daughters from small aristocratic families are well-educated, gentle and elegant. It is difficult for heroes to be beautiful.
ah
It seems like they don’t dare to use this move against the leader, right?
Of course they wouldn't dare if they didn't have their heads in the water. What's more, my heart is true to the Tao, and a little love between children is not within my current consideration.
Lin Xiao replied that he had been married and had a family in his last life. He knew that being a husband and a father was not that easy. He had to shoulder a lot of responsibilities. It was impossible for him to get married before some things were clarified and resolved.
, of course, if the marriage is forced, it is not considered here.
When will Master consider it?
This is not the time to talk about this matter. Do you want to use Lingming Pill this time?
I think it can be saved
That's okay. The storage time of Ling Ming Dan is limited. It should still last for fifty or sixty years. If Bai Xixi can't use it, then let's see if there is any hope for Leng Ning. If there is, when Leng Ning breaks through, then Tianyunzhou will do it again.
When you expand, sell it if you don’t have it.
Even with the best preservation methods, Lingming Pill can only be stored for more than a hundred years, and then it will slowly lose its efficacy. Before that, Lin Xiao would not sell it, but wanted to use it.
Leng Ning broke through to Daogang 20 to 30 years earlier than Lin Xiao, and now her cultivation has reached the tenth level of Daogang, and is almost on the eleventh level. With the support of the entire Danyang Sect, she can hope to achieve a spiritual light within fifty years.
, if she needs it, Lin Xiao can sell it to her at a low price.
Firstly, it is to unite the entire Tianyun State and increase the overall strength. Secondly, it can be regarded as repaying Wang Dao's kindness. When Lin Xiao and Tiansheng Sect were weak, Wang Dao gave them a lot of protection.
Li Muxue actually didn't want to condense the Lingming Pill, but it wasn't hers and she couldn't make the decision, so she had to stay silent.
After the adjustment of the sect, the situation outside Tianyun State became calmer. After all, the travels of so many Daogang monks could not be hidden, and the Tiansheng Sect dispersed its personnel, which showed that it had no intention of expanding again, so the surrounding forces
They will not actively provoke Tianyun State, but decide to develop silently.
The pressure on Tiansheng Sect has been reduced a lot now. They don't have to worry about these Daogang ancestors, so they can easily go into battle and accelerate their development.
Five years later, Zhang Mingtang, the first elder of the Tiansheng Sect, reached the age of 200 and officially retired. Lin Xiao even held a birthday party for him. It was not a large scale, just a gathering of senior officials within the sect.
At the banquet, Lin Xiao fully affirmed Zhang Mingtang's contribution to the sect, and gave Zhang Mingtang another 10% increase in retirement benefits. This was considered a reward, but it would not make Zhang Mingtang feel the sadness of leaving the family.
Of course, the competition between Zhang Baosheng and Li Yiwen also came to an end at this time. Lin Xiao made Li Yiwen the next chief elder, and Zhang Baosheng was also transferred to other positions and reused.
Lin Xiao had told Zhang Mingtang in advance about this result. He explained that if the Zhang family takes over another first elder, it will take three hundred years in total. Unless the Zhang family can take over the third and fourth elders, it will become extremely prosperous.
If it fails, it will definitely be a disaster for the Zhang family, and Zhang Mingtang approves of this result.
