Chapter 4: Five Elements Camp (Thank you for being the leader of the alliance!)
On April 27th, Tiangong Palace stationed at Luoxue Peak and began the construction of Lingquan Cottage, Shenwei Xiaowei Mansion, Feiyun Pavilion and other training arrays.
On April 30th, Shen Zhui's original nine hundred and thirty-one innate realm, Fu Liang, Fu Bo, Wang Long, Ma Wu, Mo Feng, Zhou Gang and other nine innate peak teams were successively breaking through to the beginning of Lingqiao. territory.
Among them, Wang Long had accumulated a lot of experience, and once he broke through, he was in the middle level of Lingqiao.
After spending a lot of resources for several months, we finally started to see results.
At this point, including Yu Ziqi, Shen Zhui has ten commanders under his command! Among them, Wang Long and Yu Ziqi are the commanders of the guard army, and the rest are all vanguard commanders.
The quasi-commanding strength is close to fifty people! A breakthrough is possible at any time!
Without exception, these ten people all chose to stay on Luoxue Peak and continue to follow Shen Zhui.
On May 1st, Shen Zhui's Lieutenant's Mansion was completed, covering an area of 100 acres, tall and majestic, with 800 Lingquan Cottages. At the same time, Tiangong Palace began to send additional manpower to build the ten commander's mansions.
At the same time, Shen Zhui's other martial arts weapon, the God-killing Sword, was re-refined and became a fourth-level intermediate magic weapon!
On the third day of the fifth lunar month, Shen Zhui's captain's mansion held a banquet and invited many guests.
Fengxing General Lu Yuanwei came forward to take charge. Seven titled captains, including Nangong Yan from the Enforcement Palace and Pei Tong from the Chuanwu Palace, came to congratulate him.
The titled captains who were unable to return due to military duties also sent their own soldiers to deliver congratulatory gifts and congratulations.
Zhao Gongming, the official in charge of the meeting at the Si Li Hall, and He Guangzheng, the official Guanglu, arrived in person.
Yan Zheng of the Law Enforcement Hall also brought a group of officials to the banquet.
There are more than thirty titled captains here! Most of these people have entered the mansion in the world of Ciyun, received the inheritance, and benefited from Shen Zhui.
As for the commander-level, the Xiantian realm team is upright, with more than ten thousand people!
This scene couldn't help but make everyone feel that Shen Zhui's trend has become a reality.
As long as nothing unexpected happens and the rate of increase is maintained, it is almost certain that he will become a captain.
The festive atmosphere reached its peak when the Marquis of Wu'an, Zhao Xing, arrived in person.
This celebration banquet lasted for three days and three nights, and the entire Luoxue Peak was also lively for three days and three nights.
On the contrary, the Prince Liang's family was deserted, and even some wavering strong men secretly sent people to send congratulatory gifts.
…………
On May 10th, a dragon-headed ship was flying over the wilderness outside Wanfeng City, towards the world of Ciyun.
Now that Shen Zhui has officially become a titled captain, he is naturally qualified to own a dragonhead ship.
There is a statue of a god inside the Dragon Head Tower ship.
Once there is a war, Shen can recruit soldiers nearby and launch a small battle. And he can get the blessing of divine power. This is the authority of the title of captain!
"Shua~"
The clouds were broken from time to time, revealing the ferocious dragon head inside and the glistening meteorite iron coating on the hull.
On the Longshoulou boat, inside the marching hall.
In front of Shen Zhui, four dripping soul-eating beads flew.
The Soul-eating Pearl, which is like a black pearl, is like a child, flying back and forth and left and right on Shen Zhui's body nimbly, like a child acting coquettishly.
"I have mastered the nine-star Soul-Eating Beads for several consecutive days, and finally reached the point where all four beads can be released at once." Shen Zhui smiled slightly and took the Soul-Eating Beads back into his body.
Although he went all out, Shen Zhui was able to barely activate the ten soul-eating beads including the core.
However, in conjunction with the attack methods of the divine weapon, the one that can exert the greatest power without affecting the replenishment of spiritual power is in the realm of the Four Pearls.
Although Shen Zhui can activate six or more, it is not as powerful as controlling four soul-eating beads.
"In the past few days, my good deeds have been almost used up. However, with the Five Elements Stone, I can enhance my understanding of the power of heaven and earth in various fields. The progress of martial arts and Taoism is not slow."
Redemption list: Enlightenment time (one hundred good deeds per second, can be gifted)
Enlightenment time (one thousand good deeds per second, can be gifted)
Skill: Eye of Deception (consumes good deeds)
Merit barrier (consumes good deeds)
Accumulated good deeds used: 10.8 million
Illusion Shinto, transformed from the first level and entered the second level of ecstasy.
The Hidden Yuan Sword Technique has also entered the third level, the Hidden Soul Realm.
He has now collected more than 10,000 Five Element Stones, and more than 1,000 Thunder Stones alone, and all of them have been used by Shen Zhui.
The Thunder Stone enhances the practitioner's perception of the power of thunder in the world.
It is directly integrated into the rules of Dongtian World.
Although the effect of more than a thousand thunder stones will become less and less in the future, Shen Zhui's current understanding of the thunder system is probably stronger than some third-level magical powers.
Based on this foundation, the fourth level of Thunder God Technique training has also advanced by leaps and bounds!
The various Taoist combinations of the Thunder God Art are all derived from the Thunder Noose.
Controlling the number of thunder nooses determines the power of Taoism.
And now Shen Zhui has mastered more than 3,500 thunder nooses.
The number has nearly doubled compared to before!
"The Five Elements Stone is such a rare treasure..." Shen Zhui couldn't help but sigh.
The Five Elements Stone is just a general term. It actually includes wind, thunder and space stones in addition to the Five Elements.
With Lei Xingshi constantly improving the rules of the cave world, Shen Zhui has already been able to use the Eye of the Thunder Dragon to its ultimate power, which is enough to destroy the first level of magical power.
As for the second level, Thunder Dragon Swallowing the Sea, it still needs more than 500 nooses to reach its ultimate power.
"This trip to Ciyun World is mainly focused on collecting Five Elements Stones and inheriting the mansion. Enter if you can and don't force yourself." Shen Zhui secretly said.
No matter how powerful the treasure is, it is only a foreign object after all. The inherited secret method, unless it is a venerable-level secret method, or a very powerful magical secret method, will Shen Zhui be tempted by it.
Otherwise, you will bite off more than you can chew.
"Swish, swish, swish~"
In the marching hall, phantoms suddenly appeared. These phantoms were separated on both sides. As soon as they appeared, they all saluted Shen Zhui.
"Subordinates, please see the captain."
"No need to be polite." Shen Zhui waved his hand.
He left Luo Xuefeng, but he now has more than 30,000 soldiers under his command. Even after becoming a captain, he can allocate some of them to the border town to support himself, but the number of soldiers left on Luoxue Peak still exceeds 8,000. .
Of course, he couldn't do all these military affairs himself, but left them to the top ten commanders under his command.
Just report important matters through spiritual communication every day.
"Sir." Mo Feng said respectfully. "The Fengxing Battalion has been formed. There are a total of 250 people under my command. All of them are in the Xiantian realm and are all following the Feng path. It just needs time to get used to it."
Shen Zhui nodded. As early as when he was the commander, he had intended to reorganize the military system according to the Five Elements.
This Mo Feng is a talented commander under his command. He is good at the way of wind and has a good understanding of the power of wind system of heaven and earth.
"I will give you another month. Within one month, I want to see the results of the Fengxing Battalion. If we cannot achieve satisfactory results, the Fengxing Battalion will be disbanded." Shen Zhui said calmly.
After spending so much resources, if you can't see the results, what's the use?
He is pursuing this Shenwei captain, not for nothing. With his current net worth, it is enough to support himself. However, he is willing to spend money on his subordinates. Of course he has requirements!
"Yes! I obey my orders!" Mo Feng said respectfully with a trembling brow.
Buzz~ Mo Feng's figure disappeared into the marching hall.
The commander responsible for forming the Five Elements Battalion reported the situation in turn.
The commander Gui Zang is in charge of the Fire Camp.
Commander Fu Liang is in charge of the water camp.
Commander Zhou Gang was in charge of the Jinxing camp.
Commander Mo Feng is in charge of Fengxing Camp.
Commander Ma Wu was in charge of Tu Xing camp.
Commander Zhou Yang was in charge of Mu Xing camp.
Shen Zhui wanted to form Lei Xingying, but even among the Wu'an army, there were still too few who followed Lei Xingying.
As for space, that can only be understood by at least the peak of Lingqiao, so it is not considered at all.
In addition to practicing on their own on weekdays, the Five Elements Battalion is also responsible for conducting formation coordination drills with other battalions.
If we can follow the idea, cooperate with the formation, and increase the divine power, a hundred people in the Xiantian realm can even kill the peak of Lingqiao!
The Five Elements Camp has begun to show its scale, and Shen Zhui is still very satisfied.
However, after the report that followed, Shen Zhui had a headache.
"Sir," Wang Long said. "Although Tianxin Palace has allocated thirty border towns to your Majesty so that the soldiers under his command can be self-sufficient, according to my subordinates' speculation, if the current resource distribution intensity and personnel growth rate are maintained, there will be no shortage of people." In two months, the logistics reserves will be stretched thin."
"Yue Cheng, how many spiritual stones are left in the entrustment to you?"
Yue Cheng immediately stepped out and said: "There's still half."
"Why did you use it so quickly?" Shen Zhui couldn't help but be stunned.
He gave Yue Cheng a small half of his fortune back then!
"Sir, I'm afraid this is your fault." Yue Cheng said with a bitter smile.
"Even if the original expansion speed of Luoxue Peak is doubled, the logistics supply will be able to keep up within half a year, and there will even be a slight surplus."
Yue Cheng pointed at Wang Long and said: "The original border town was guarded by Mr. Wang. The monthly business tax and the soldiers going out to hunt monsters in the wilderness were enough to support the movement of the entire army."
"But since you killed two magical powers and a dozen city lords in the battle on the Canglan River, the two sides fought, causing the situation in the Canglan River to become extremely tense."
"Small-scale attacks continue on both sides, and commander-level fighting has become several times more frequent than before."
"The four major chambers of commerce in the military have withdrawn more than half of their business in the border towns. Without the commercial tax commission, the danger of soldiers leaving the city has also increased. As a result, the border towns, which account for the bulk of the income, have become a drag."
"If your Excellency had not become a Divine Power Colonel, the original number of ten thousand people would still be able to enter and exit the same. However, after becoming a Divine Power Colonel, the number of people under your command has more than tripled."
"In this way, the remaining half of the spiritual stones have already been carefully planned by my subordinates."
"Ahem..." Seeing Yue Cheng's aggrieved look, Shen Zhui couldn't help but cough twice to cover up his embarrassment.
Is this all your fault for your feelings?
Indeed, the Canglan River area has been at peace for a long time. The four major chambers of commerce are responsible for buying and selling the Lingtian mineral veins, and commercial taxes account for a large proportion. Once war breaks out, the income will of course shrink rapidly.
Hundreds of cities on both sides are fighting in the Canglan River. Nowadays, it is difficult to see an innate monster near the Canglan River. The harvest of hunting monsters and obtaining materials has also dropped dramatically.
This is not the case for him alone, but for the entire Canglan River border town.
"No wonder Si Lidian brought up the Battle of Canglan River to criticize me when they decided on my title. It seems that he has a complaint..." Shen Zhui suddenly realized.
Although it is understandable to go to war outside the country, interests are interests, regardless of right or wrong. Because he Shen Zhui suddenly started a war, how could the other parties not complain?
If Ciyun World had not been born in time and Lu Yuanwei had allocated a lot of resources, I am afraid that he would have suffered dissatisfaction from many soldiers over the impeachment of Prince Liang and Li Chengfeng.
"Stop recruiting ordinary soldiers for the time being, only Xiantian realm and Lingqiao realm." After a pause, Shen Zhui changed his mind again.
"Forget it, Lingqiao realm is not necessary, only the quasi-commander level is accepted."
With his current reputation, if he opens this door, I am afraid that many commanders will come to vote.
If there are other school captains, if you are titled as a school captain, you will have objections.
He enjoys all the honors now, but it will take some time for him to settle down.
"Yes." Yue Cheng bowed and saluted, although his figure also disappeared in the marching hall.
"There is nothing to report in the border town where my subordinates are stationed." Wang Long also bowed his hand and disappeared together with Ma Wu.
However, before he disappeared, a piece of news reached Shen Zhui's Divine Power Order.
"Murong Qingxue has fallen into the innate realm."
Shen Zhui read it with an expressionless face and quickly came to his senses.
Being born in the extreme realm, changing one's fate against the will of heaven, and changing one's bloodline, this is the path Murong Qingxue chose.
What he can do has been done, and the rest can only be looked at by herself.
As soon as the Five Elements Commander and Yuecheng Wang Long left, only Huang Li, who had just returned, Yu Ziqi and Zixuan were left in the entire hall.
Shen Zhui looked at Huang Li, who immediately stepped out of the queue and cupped his hands and said: "Boss, oh no, captain."
Shen Zhui chuckled and waved his hand and said: "You don't need to report every day. If there is any progress in the investigation of Guiyuan Sect, just send it to me directly. Newlywed, I haven't even had time to give you a gift."
Huang Li immediately bent down and said with a smile: "Boss, what are you talking about? If Sanniang and I can achieve good things, it is already a great gift. I will thank the boss on Sanniang's behalf."
"I don't need to thank you too much. You should thank Brother Zixuan properly." Shen Zhui said with a smile. "It's him who helped you a lot."
Huang Li quickly raised his hands and saluted Zixuan next to him: "Thank you, Mr. Zixuan."
"Hmph, if I find out that you are treating my adopted sister harshly, you will die." Zixuan threatened, waving her fist.
"Don't dare, don't dare." Huang Li quickly bowed his head respectfully.
He clearly remembered that when he returned to Cangzhou, the wealthy businessman and the Cangzhou county magistrate looked horrified, as if they had seen a ghost when they saw him.
It is naturally impossible for a mere innate high-level person to have such prestige. The only explanation is that Shen Zhui and Zixuan helped him a lot behind the scenes.
After Huang Li withdrew, Yu Ziqi smiled and cupped his hands and said, "I have nothing to report, so I'll take my leave first."
Shen Zhui nodded. Yu Ziqi and Huang Li were now on the same mission, which was to investigate the whereabouts of Gui Yuan Zong.
Of course, Yu Ziqi is also responsible for some government affairs of the school captain's mansion.
"Zixuan, if you are okay... huh?" Shen Zhui suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Zixuan's position.
Because she found that the other party actually took out a piece of fruit and ate it in the hall.
