After a long time, the power of the super flying talisman was exhausted. Ye Chen's flying speed slowed down and he slowly stopped flying. He looked back in the direction of Ten Thousand Stars City. Ye Chen wiped the red blood that overflowed from the corner of his mouth. A cold light flashed in his eyes. He galloped towards the direction of Jiuxing City. When Ye Chen returned to Jiuxing City, one hundred thousand black iron guards and dozens of servant legions had already controlled the entire Jiuxing City. Hundreds of thousands of prisoners were watched and suppressed in the military camp, waiting quietly. its disposal. Suspended in mid-air, Ye Chen glanced at the hundreds of thousands of prisoners in the military camp. Without any hesitation or hesitation, Ye Chen immediately handed over the poisonous elixir to the three men from Zhao Guan, Dong Wei Meng, and asked them to distribute it. Give hundreds of thousands of prisoners, use force to make dozens of prisoners take highly toxic elixirs, and ruthlessly kill all those who disobey. Immediately afterwards, Ye Chen explained the function of the highly toxic elixir in front of hundreds of thousands of captives, giving them hope of continued survival before breaking them into the servant army and reorganizing them into twelve ten An army of ten thousand people. After solving the problem of prisoners in Jiuxing City, Ye Chen took out a large number of Netherworld Fruits from the Qiankun Ring, and set up a large spirit gathering formation in the military camp, causing the Netherworld Qi thousands of miles around Jiuxing City to flow towards the city like a tide. The waves surged into the military camp, greatly increasing the density of the underworld energy in the military camp, and the speed of cultivation in it increased dramatically. After that, Ye Chen gave each of the 100,000 Black Iron Guards a bottle of 100 top-quality ghost pills, and asked the 100,000 Black Iron Guards to practice in the military camp to increase their strength as quickly as possible to prevent the army from Ten Thousand Stars City from coming. At the same time, Ye Chen did not forget about the 1.2 million servant army, and directly gave each of them a bottle of low-level Nether Pill and a top-grade ghost pill, so that they could fight in the military camp under the leadership of their respective army commanders. Practice in the middle and improve your strength as soon as possible. After doing all this, Ye Chen left the military camp and entered the training room of the Lord's Mansion of Jiuxing City. He took out a large amount of top-grade ghost pills from the Qiankun Ring, sat cross-legged, took the top-grade ghost pills, and refined the powerful power contained in them. Energy, enhance the mana reserves in the body, and repair the trauma suffered in the body. In the blink of an eye, a week passed. Ye Chen not only successfully repaired the wounds in his body, but also consumed hundreds of thousands of bottles of the best ghost pills in the Qiankun Ring. The mana in his body increased greatly, and the liquid in his Dantian The number of villains has reached one hundred, and there are still eight liquid villains left to condense one hundred and eight liquid villains and advance to the integration stage. However, as the number of liquid villains increases, more energy is required to condense each liquid villain. The energy contained in the elixir alone can no longer meet Ye Chen's requirement to quickly increase his strength. Therefore, Ye Chen had to give up on searching for a large amount of medicinal materials, refining various high-level elixirs, and taking the elixirs to improve his strength! After all, searching for medicinal materials, refining elixirs, and taking elixirs requires too much time, and the improvement of their strength is extremely limited. They can only give up helplessly, find places rich in energy, and absorb the energy between heaven and earth. Rich energy, enhance your own strength. The technique of Devouring Elements is extremely powerful, and the energy required is extremely terrifying. Ye Chen can rely on the energy contained in the elixir to practice it to the fourth level and is about to enter the fifth level. It is already very good. ! In fact, the Devouring Element Technique can be practiced on the first three levels with the help of huge elixirs to quickly improve strength and combat effectiveness. However, once it enters the fourth level, the energy required is too huge, and it can only rely on the elixirs. It is already difficult to advance with energy. You can only advance by absorbing and refining the energy between heaven and earth. According to the records in "Xuan Tian Bao Dian", the Devouring Element Technique absorbs and transforms the spiritual energy of heaven and earth very quickly. Especially after entering the fourth level, the practitioner can absorb the spiritual energy of a thousand miles in a short time. Once empty, everything is converted into pure mana within the body. However, the absorbing ability of the Yuan Devouring Technique is too powerful. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in ordinary places is simply not enough for practitioners to absorb and transform. Therefore, Ye Chen did not use the Yuan Devouring Technique to its limit to absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. However, Ye Chen no longer has high-level elixirs in his hands, and the effects of high-level elixirs are not very effective for him. Therefore, Ye Chen plans to use the ability of Devouring Elements to Devour Heaven and Earth to absorb the energy between heaven and earth. The aura energy can quickly enhance one's strength. Of course, if Ye Chen wants to use the Yuan Devouring Art to its fullest, he must find a place with a strong concentration of spiritual energy and huge energy to practice. Otherwise, he will just use the Yuan Devouring Art to its extreme. The surrounding aura energy is absorbed completely, causing the surrounding space to fall into a state of lack of aura, which has a great impact on the surrounding space and can easily attract other people's ideas. This is why Ye Chen does not dare to use the Essence Devouring Art wantonly in the fantasy world. for the sake of. Ye Chen, who had a plan in mind, stood up slowly, dusted himself off,He opened the door to the training room and walked out. "Lord City Lord, Zamat and John from the Business Alliance have been waiting for you at the City Lord's Mansion for three days. Do you want to meet them?" Ye Chen just walked out of the training room. The commander of the black iron guards who guarded the safety of the training room came. He asked with a respectful expression. "Oh, I just have something to see them. Please take me to see them!" Hearing the words of the leader of the Black Iron Guards, Ye Chen nodded lightly and said lightly. "Yes, Lord City Lord!" Ye Chen's voice As soon as he landed, the leader of the black iron guards responded with a respectful expression, and took the initiative to walk in front to lead the way for Ye Chen, while the other black iron guards continued to guard the safety of the training room. Under the leadership of the Black Iron Guards, Ye Chen quickly entered a spacious and luxurious living room, walked straight to the main seat and sat down, and then turned his attention to Zama, who had been waiting for three days. Te and John said lightly: "I heard that you have been waiting for me for three days. I wonder what you want from me?" As soon as Ye Chen finished his voice, Zamat and John looked at each other and nodded to each other. , only then did Zamat stand up, salute respectfully to Ye Chen, and then looked at Ye Chen expectantly and said: "My lord, City Lord, now Nine Star City has fallen into your hands. I don't know. Should you manage Jiuxing City yourself, or sell the management rights and taxation rights of Jiuxing City?" Hearing Zamat's words, Ye Chen didn't hesitate at all, and said with a calm face: "Of course we will sell Jiuxing City. The management rights and taxation rights have been sold out. I don¡¯t have the time to manage Jiuxing City. If your business alliance is interested, I can sell the management rights and taxation rights of Jiuxing City to you at the price of 20 billion top-grade Nether Fruits per year. !¡± The Business Alliance provided materials and wealth worth hundreds of billions of top-grade Nether Fruit before the war, which made Ye Chen very fond of the Business Alliance. In addition, it had no intention of managing Jiuxing City, and it had no intention of gaining the favor of the people of Jiuxing City. At an extremely low price, he sold the management rights and taxation rights of Nine Star City to the Business Alliance, which was considered as his return for the Business Alliance's support. Hearing Ye Chen's words, Zamat and John were overjoyed, with excited looks on their faces. They couldn't help but said loudly to Ye Chen: "Thank you, City Lord!" After saying that, Zamat took out one from his arms. Space ring, and transferred 20 billion top-quality Nether Fruit from the space ring on his finger, handed it to Ye Chen and said: "Lord City Lord, this is 20 billion top-grade Netherworld Fruit, please accept it, Lord City Lord!" After seeing Zamat's words and actions, Ye Chen nodded gently, with a satisfied smile on his lips. He reached out to take the space ring, put it casually into his arms, and said lightly: "Starting from today. The management rights and taxation rights of Jiuxing City are given to your business alliance. Therefore, your business alliance had better do a good job in the public security and various taxation work of Jiuxing City as soon as possible. I can also concentrate on training the army and protecting the safety of Jiuxing City. "Hearing Ye Chen's words, Zamat didn't hesitate or hesitate at all, and immediately responded loudly: "Don't worry, City Lord, we will accept the security and taxation work of Jiuxing City as soon as possible, so that you can relax and concentrate on training. Army!" Hearing Zamat's words, Ye Chen nodded gently, ended the topic about Nine Star City, and asked with a calm expression: "Do you know where the dark energy is the strongest nearby? " Hearing Ye Chen's words, Zamat and John responded loudly without any hesitation or hesitation: "Death Valley!" As soon as Zamat and John finished speaking, a hint of light appeared on Ye Chen's face. With a smile on his face, he asked softly: "Can you tell me more about Death Valley?" After hearing Ye Chen's words and seeing the smile and expectation on Ye Chen's face, John and Zamat looked at each other. , John explained loudly: "Lord City Lord, Death Valley is located three thousand miles northwest of Jiuxing City. It is the place where ancient battlefields were decisive battles. Hundreds of millions of corpses are buried. The death and underworld energy inside is extremely strong. It was terrifying and formed a unique storm of underworld energy. All the people involved in the storm of underworld energy, without exception, never came out of Death Valley! Therefore, although the underworld energy in Death Valley is extremely rich, No force takes it as its own and uses it as a stronghold!" Hearing John's explanation, Ye Chen's eyes flashed with light and he said softly: "What's going on with the dark energy storm? You¡¯ve been to Death Valley and haven¡¯t come out yet?¡± After hearing Ye Chen¡¯s words, John paused for a moment, collected his thoughts, and said slowly: ¡°My lord, the underworld storm is due to the underworld air in Death Valley reaching a terrifying level. What was just formed contained terrifying power, and no one who was involved in it survived!A Duke in the Mahayana period went into Death Valley to hunt for treasure, but he never came out. The Duke's territory also collapsed because of the Duke's death! If the City Lord has nothing particularly important to do, it is best not to get within a hundred miles of Death Valley. Otherwise, you are likely to encounter a dark energy storm and fall into the desperate place of Death Valley! " Hearing John's words, Ye Chen nodded gently and said: "Well, I understand! I wonder how your business alliance is going? If I continue to expand, do you have the ability to expand with me and help me manage the residents of various cities? " Hearing Ye Chen's words, Zamat and John looked overjoyed and responded loudly: "Don't worry, City Lord, our business alliance is so strong. No matter how many cities the City Lord captures, we will be able to help the City Lord. Manage the city's residents! ¡± The Business Alliance is an alliance-type organization with extremely strong expansion and inclusiveness. No matter how many cities Ye Chen captures, the Business Alliance can give up part of its benefits and absorb some wealthy businessmen from local cities into the Business Alliance. With the help of The power of the local city's wealthy businessmen quickly brought the local city into management to obtain greater benefits. Therefore, the topic of Ye Chen's continued expansion immediately aroused the concern of Zamat and John. Hearing what Zamat and John said! , Ye Chen nodded lightly and said: "Well, soon I will send an army to capture all the surrounding cities, big and small. Your business alliance is ready to accept the management rights and taxes of each city! " Whether it is Aude City or Jiuxing City, there are a large number of small and medium-sized cities that have not fallen under Ye Chen's control. Originally, Ye Chen had no management personnel and had no intention and ability to control these cities, but with the business alliance, With help, Ye Chen could easily control it indirectly, obtain more and greater benefits, and eliminate the potential threats to these small and medium-sized cities. Therefore, Ye Chen decided to join the Black Iron Army and the Servant Army after they completed their training. Capture all the small and medium-sized cities near Oud City and Jiuxing City to consolidate your occupied area and sphere of influence.
