There are layers of green mountains in the distance, clouds and mist linger between the mountains and rivers, and you can vaguely see strange peaks rising from the ground. A large, clear river was surrounded by mountains. It split when passing a delta, wrapped in a dense jungle, and flowed all the way to the South China Sea along the Golden Scale River. There are three-foot-high dams on both sides of the river, as well as a reservoir built with great supernatural power. In the spring of this year, the river broke out a flood. It was the aquatic tribe of the Dragon Palace in the South China Sea that diverted the flood, and this saved the area around the river. In several villages, some people even said they saw a white dragon when the flood broke out. To the left and right of the river are patches of farmland, but they are not spiritual fields for growing medicinal materials, but for growing grains and grains. You can vaguely see many farmers busy in the fields, and you can also see the laughter of children. This year they don¡¯t have to go to private school. They go to school for five days every seven days, and then spend the remaining two days playing or helping with household chores. Outside the village, a group of people wearing the uniforms of registered disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect passed by. The busy farmers in the fields saluted after seeing them, and some even knelt down with expressions of gratitude. Not long ago, several monsters came to attack the village, and it was these registered disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect who killed them. As a result, two people were seriously injured. Bao Mumu was one of the farmers who insisted on kneeling down and kowtow, because his life was saved by one of the registered disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect. Regarding the current life, Bao Mumu never dared to think about it before. He now has five acres of arable land, all of which are top-quality fertile fields. Each field is a flat square with ditches for irrigation in the middle. The amount of food after harvest last year was nearly twice as much as before. There is no tax on him for farming here. Whatever grain he grows is his own. In addition to supporting his own rations, he can also use the grain to go to the town to exchange for shoes and cloth for daily expenses. Whenever the farming season is busy, he can also receive some labor tasks. These are all paid for. In the past, he would never dare to think about such things. "You can't escape the exorbitant taxes and various kinds of labor every year, let alone get any wages." Nowadays, many people in the village make a living by working, and they can still live a peaceful life relying on the wages they earn from hard work! But Bao Mumu is an honest man. As an out-and-out farmer, nothing makes him more satisfied than the land. Now that he has some savings in his hands, and his mother-in-law seems to be pregnant, he plans to spend some money after finishing this year's harvest and ask people in the village to help build a new brick house. There is a town on the other side of the mountain, which is the stronghold of the Spirit Sword Sect. It seems that there are some important minerals, and bricks can be bought at a relatively cheap price, but it is a little troublesome to transport them here. Bao Mumu glanced at the private school to the east of the village with envy, and secretly thought that when the child was born, he would first prepare some gifts and ask the teacher to name him, and send him to school when he was older. He has been illiterate his entire life, so it would be good for his children to read more books! Although this is just a village, there are five to six hundred households, and there is also a team of guards responsible for patrolling. There are many wild animals nearby. Occasionally there are some powerful monsters. Many people who know some martial arts but have not been accepted by the Spirit Sword Sect are now placed in various villages and towns. Bao Mumu was thinking about his own affairs, looked at the other side of the mountain, and said to himself: "I'll go and have a look tomorrow." "I haven't been to the city since I came here." "We might as well take my mother-in-law with me." Let her gain some knowledge. "This is just a very inconspicuous small village near the Jinlin River. There are a total of twelve such villages, each with a population of about two to three thousand. They are actually small towns. In the past, there were only so many people in a town. The center surrounded by villages is called Luoshui City. It started as Luoshui Town, but as the population increased, a city was built. Near the mountain is a large forest. In the past, there were all century-old trees here, but now they have been mostly cut down. Luoshui City has been built on the mountain. Because there is a waterfall nearby, it is called Luoshui City. There are ten-foot-wide avenues on all sides of the city. They are roads smoothed by wild bull beasts. This is a beast with infinite strength. One of them can cultivate hundreds of acres of land. It's a pity that only those disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect can control them. Ordinary people have to think carefully if they want to get close. Some people swear that these wild bull beasts are the descendants of dragons because they have an extra fork on their horns. This kind of beast is actually gentle in temperament, but it doesn¡¯t like to be close to strangers. After passing through this mountain, there is an endless grassland, where many of these animals live.The living habits of the wild bull beast are actually not far different from those of the bison, but they are much larger in size. Moreover, the Barbarian Bull Beast is omnivorous, and sometimes it will eat meat even when it is extremely hungry. From time to time, there are people galloping on the official road. The horse under the seat is very impressive, and it is nearly one foot tall! That¡¯s called a wind horse, and it can travel three thousand miles a day! It is now the most popular mount in the entire Luoshui City, and it is also very expensive. Only some registered disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect can buy it. The entire Luoshui City is connected in all directions. There are no restricted areas, and there are also yamen responsible for handling affairs. Most of them are ordinary people serving in them. In fact, they are similar to the previous stewards. Everyone in Luoshui City knows that the real decision-maker is the headquarters of the Spirit Sword Sect. Except for the mines in the north that outsiders are not allowed to approach, anyone who comes to Luoshui City can go sightseeing at will. There are many shops on both sides of the street. Most of the people coming and going are wearing cotton clothes and their faces are very rosy. I don't know who gave the order. Many of the trees that were originally cut down were planted on both sides of the streets of Luoshui City, distributed along the city walls, and in many flower beds. But it is not open yet, and it is estimated that it will not be open until next year. It is also an extremely beautiful sight. There is a pavilion on every street. You can¡¯t go there casually. Some people say that there is a formation down there, so staying there will make you feel refreshed. No one has seen it with their own eyes anyway. There was a notice posted at the government office that you will not be able to visit the pavilion until next year. There is no imperial court here. "However, there are county magistrates, in fact, they should be said to be city lords, who are selected from some scholars. The Spirit Sword Sect will have a plan for the city, and then their task is to deal with various disputes and then arrange for the citizens to build the city. Occasionally, some celebrations are held and arranged. For example, the Heroic Spirit Sacrifice is the most important ceremony in Luoshui City after the Spring Festival. There is no city god¡¯s land established near the city. If you want to burn incense and worship the gods, you have to go to the Heroes¡¯ Temple. It is said that it has been very effective recently. Someone asked for a son and got a son, and two of them were born in one go. ¡¡¡¡¡ One hundred miles south of Luoshui City is Dahe City. The population here is smaller than that of Luoshui City, but disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect often appear. Recently, the Spirit Sword Sect is planning to open up nearby waterways. From time to time, Spirit Sword Sect disciples can be seen carrying monsters in the water that are several feet long. These monsters are active in the river and have eaten more than ten people. As a result, no one dared to go near the river, and those who used to be fishermen turned to other professions. The mother-in-law only dared to wash herself in the dug ditch. It is said that once the nearby river monsters are cleared away, the Spirit Sword Sect is planning to build a town across the river, and many people with some skills are eager to try. Because newly established towns are the easiest to gain merit, and as long as the merit is sufficient, you can get rewards. Many people became monks from mortals because of this! For the mortals at the bottom, this is almost a matter of reaching the sky in one step. They suddenly have status and money, and can live to be one or two hundred years old without any accident. To the east of the city is the headquarters of the Spirit Sword Sect. To be honest, these immortal disciples have very little interaction with mortals. They are ordinary people who deal with things. For many people, monks are like dragons but never come to an end. ?Maybe here this year. Next year I went elsewhere. Occasionally, some very beautiful women will go out to play, and they will be accompanied by disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect. Some people say that they are fairies in the sea. Some people have seen them use spells to treat injuries and illnesses! But after all, the people I saw were only a few, and they didn¡¯t come often. Usually I stay for two days and then leave. The most prosperous city should be Lingyun City. It is said that there are more than 100,000 people there, and many disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect are there. "It's a pity that mortals are no longer allowed to go there. The only ones who can be in Lingyun City are qualified monks, except for the first batch of mortals. Those who came later were placed elsewhere. From time to time, some new gadgets would come out from there, such as waterwheels made by machine skills, and various tools for living and farming. There are also some handy gadgets. No one knows who invented it, but it was very popular after it came out, and now an industry has developed. Many people rely on these handicrafts to earn a living. You can¡¯t go a hundred miles outside the city at will, because it¡¯s easy to encounter beasts and monsters. Only those who are self-conscious will spend a lot of money to buy some magic weapons and go out to hunt monsters and try their luck. Recently, there have been more and more people like this, because many people who do not have the qualifications to cultivate immortalsHe has always studied martial arts, and there are many martial arts schools in nearby cities. Some people who practice well can smash a three-foot-thick bluestone with one fist. Time passes like this day by day. In the blink of an eye, spring turns to autumn, and it¡¯s September. With Lingyun City as the center, six cities within a radius of several hundred miles began to get busy. Because now it¡¯s time for the Spirit Sword Sect to recruit disciples. The Spirit Sword Sect recruits a group of disciples every year, but most of them are children under the age of sixteen. These children will be sent to private schools together. At that time, core disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect will bring them for examination. If they have the qualifications to cultivate immortals, they will be admitted into the sect. This is an extremely rare opportunity for many ordinary people, because as long as they choose to join the Spirit Sword Sect, even their families will rise with the tide. The disciples accepted by the Spirit Sword Sect not only have the qualifications to cultivate immortals, but also may be accepted into the sect if they can pass other assessments. When the time comes, the elixir will be given to you, and you will be able to become a low-level monk. After a period of training, these disciples will be sent to Lingyun City for resettlement. Then someone will naturally take them to work in spiritual fields, mineral veins, alchemy rooms, weapon refining halls and other places. ¡¡¡¡¡¡ Nanhai Dragon Palace. Li Qingyun was sitting in the main hall, with a jade slip placed in front of him, which recorded many information about the Spirit Sword Sect. Currently, nearly one million people have migrated to the Phantom World, and almost the entire population of the South China Sea has been relocated. However, such a large-scale population transfer has obviously alarmed other immortal cultivating sects, and many people already know that the Spirit Sword Sect has discovered a new realm. Because of the fear of the two true dragon bloodlines and Li Qingyun's cultivation, things like snatching and fighting have not happened yet, but some sects still want to take advantage of past friendships to get a piece of the pie. A new realm. God knows how many good things are in there! Even Qingyang Palace and Xuyang Zhenren, who had been at odds with Li Qingyun in the past, sent the fifth elder who had some friendship with both Li Qingyun and Master Longnu as lobbyists. This is a rather troublesome thing! On the one hand, Li Qingyun needs to have complete control over the phantom world, and on the other hand, he doesn't want to turn against all those cultivating sects. So he came up with a more compromise method. That is to exchange spiritual stones and resources for population. After the water of the Tianhe poured into the three realms, although all life was devastated, there were still many people who survived. The lives of these people in the mortal world are not very good! Those who have the qualifications to cultivate immortality are fine, but those who do not have the qualifications to cultivate immortality may not receive much attention. So Li Qingyun¡¯s plan is to use part of the resources to exchange for population and transfer these populations to the Phantom World. On the one hand, it temporarily blocked the mouths of those cultivating sects, and on the other hand, it accelerated the replenishment of the strength in the phantom world. When the Spirit Sword Sect is strong enough to form its own system, there will be no need to worry about them stumbling upon them. certainly! They still claim to the outside world that they need enough manpower and how many people they will send. How many resources can be exchanged for it. As for sending his disciples into the phantom world, it is something that should not even be considered for the time being. The Spirit Sword Sect has just established its foundation in the Phantom World, so how could Li Qingyun allow outside forces to intervene. Moreover, Li Qingyun is not afraid of them at all if he really wants to take action. With his cultivation of the fourth-turn golden elixir, coupled with Master Longnu and His Highness Xuanyue, as well as many water tribes in the Dragon Palace, even if he is facing the entire world of immortal cultivation It is also a matter of victory or defeat between five and five. Not to mention that they may not be that united! Furthermore, some third-rate immortal cultivating sects have already revealed their intention to merge into the Spirit Sword Sect. This is like the original Qingyang Palace. At that time, Qingyang Palace was the first-class sect in the world of immortality. Many immortal sects worshiped under Qingyang Palace, and even Baihua Valley at that time became a branch of Qingyang Palace. The meaning of these third-rate immortal cultivation sects is to directly join the Spirit Sword Sect and retain their previous names. In essence, they are obeying the Spirit Sword Sect's orders. For example, there is a Qingxu Gate. If they really merge into the Spirit Sword Sect. That is the Qingxutang lineage of the Spirit Sword Sect. These third-rate immortal cultivating sects are not strong enough, they are not living very well in the mortal world, and they lack sufficient resources. If you can join the Spirit Sword Sect, you will undoubtedly be able to obtain more resources. There are thousands of sects in the world of immortality. There have only been so many famous sects for thousands of years. Those who are not strong enough to establish a sect have basically not changed. They are not exterminated in disasters. Just keep doing nothing. With your back against a big tree, you can enjoy the shade! The Spirit Sword Sect has three powerful monks at the immortal level. Both the resources for cultivating immortals and various techniques are very powerful.People are fascinated. "Yes." Li Qingyun glanced at the jade slip with his spiritual consciousness, and said slowly: "Prepare one hundred thousand medium-grade spiritual stones to hand over to Qingyang Palace." "As for sending disciples into the phantom world to help us." "That will happen in the future. "Let's talk about it." "The Spirit Sword Sect is now capable of handling matters in the Phantom World." "The population transfer will continue." "They will give them as many spiritual stones as they send." "The population is particularly important now!" There is still too much space in this realm, even if it accommodates tens of millions of people, it is more than enough!" Jun Mo, the chief disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect, nodded after hearing this, and then said hesitantly: "Master, there are some sects. He secretly sent his low-level disciples with their cultivations sealed, as if they wanted to find out what was going on in the phantom world. " "I don't know how to deal with it?" Li Qingyun smiled when he heard this, and said, "Since they are willing to send me here. Disciples come over, then we will naturally accept them." "Assign those people to the Lingshi Mine." "The teleportation formation is directly connected to the South China Sea Dragon Palace. The entrance and exit need to be controlled by the Dragon Palace. These people cannot get out. "Just let them work hard and practice." Send them over quietly? This is absolutely possible. ¡° Anyway, the Spirit Sword Sect does not admit that they sent their disciples here. These people are mortals, so it is impossible to send them back. The Spirit Sword Sect is currently short of manpower. Recently, three more spirit stone veins have been discovered, but not many people are mining them. "When these people come to the Phantom World, they have to work and practice conscientiously. They don't even have to think about going back. Moreover, Li Qingyun has strong confidence in the current institutional resources of the Lingjian Sect. Those disciples who have been quietly sent by the Immortal Cultivation Sect, whether they are willing or not, have to work here honestly and exchange their achievements for resources. As long as they are honest enough, they will definitely get more here than in their previous sect! As for those who are dishonest. Is it really a joke to think that three immortal-level monks are sitting here? They cannot live without the phantom world, so they can only survive by relying on the Spirit Sword Sect. You must know that there are countless monsters at the level of Zhenjun monks here. There are so many thousand-year-old dragons, and there are even more other thousand-year monsters. The Spirit Sword Sect has gradually become a huge institutional machine, and it can even be said that it is about to evolve into a civilization class that cultivates immortals. Since these people are here, they must blend in. As long as they can create value, Li Qingyun doesn't care if they are disciples sent quietly by other immortal sects. There are nearly 80,000 registered disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect. According to this progress. It will take at most one or two years to start large-scale external development, and he must also be prepared to break through to the fourth level of the Nine Transformations of the True Dragon. When the time is right, maybe he should consider swallowing the entire world of immortality in one go! ¡¡¡¡¡¡(To be continued)
