Chapter 268 Eventful Autumn
Wang Hong stayed in the valley for another year.
In this year, he has completely mastered the first-order formation, and has almost reached the point where he can do whatever he wants.
Some second-order formations were arranged, but due to insufficient materials for the second-order formations, the drill was not continued.
The few jade slips that Cai Xuanzhi gave him last time were really extraordinary. During this year, Wang Hong learned from time to time and gained something.
Now that there are not enough materials, he has no choice but to leave the valley again and go to Qingxu City, and it is time for him to go back to the sect.
Now, there are already two Foundation Establishment cultivators stationed in the valley, and with the defensive formation, there is no need for him to worry about safety.
Up to now, if the number of foundation-building monks under him is added up, there are already twenty-six people.
There are ten Foundation Establishment cultivators in Boundary City. In Qingxu City, Xu Lun and the others plus the brothers Ma and He Yuan have a total of nine people. On Liu Changsheng's side, plus those who have been promoted in the past two years, there are six people in total. , plus Zhang Chunfeng.
Such a force, if all gathered together, no one would dare to underestimate it.
After Wang Hong arrived in Qingxu City, he went directly to Dongzhou Commercial Bank to find Xu Lun.
Dongzhou Commercial Bank has been in business for the past two years since its opening. In addition to selling a large number of panacea, elixir, and spirit wine, it can also help Wang Hong purchase some items he needs.
"I have a list here, please keep an eye on it for me, and if you encounter it, buy it for me."
Wang Hong handed Xu Lun a list, which recorded the materials he needed for formation.
"In addition, if you encounter a suitable spiritual weapon, if you can buy it with spiritual stones, buy it.
If there are good refining materials, buy them. We have a large number of people now, and there is still a big gap for spiritual weapons. "Wang Hong ordered again.
"Boss, now the price of spirit weapons has increased. Originally, low-grade spirit weapons of relatively poor quality can be bought with spirit stones, but now they are held in hands as treasures.
Fortunately, I bought a few spiritual artifacts before the price increase. "Xu Lun sighed.
"Did something happen?" Wang Hong felt that something should have happened that caused this to happen.
"Yes! The matter in the mountains on the western border is not over yet, and something happened in the east.
According to the news that came some time ago, the East China Sea Monster Clan has been active recently, constantly going ashore to harass human settlements.
Just last month, the East Sea Monster Clan directly surrounded a human city. After the humans held on for three days, the city was captured by the East Sea Monster Clan.
Except for a few Golden Core cultivators and more than a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators who escaped from the city, the remaining hundreds of thousands of humans were all buried under the claws of the beasts. "
When Wang Hong heard this, he also faintly felt that a storm was about to come.
The demon world of Xizhou and the demon clan of East China Sea launched an attack on the world of cultivating immortals in Dongzhou at almost the same time.
I don't know if it was premeditated or purely coincidental.
There are also the Xizhou Monster Realm and the East Sea Monster Clan. Although one is an aquatic monster and the other is a land monster, they both belong to the monster clan. Is there any connection between them?
Anyway, under the attack from both sides, the world of cultivating immortals in Dongzhou will definitely have a hard time.
"The Dongzhou Immortal Cultivation World, has any measures been taken to deal with it?" Wang Hong asked again.
"A group of monks have been recruited from various big and small forces to go to reinforcements. I heard that a total of thousands of foundation-building monks and more than 100,000 Qi-training monks have been recruited.
The three shops in our family also handed in a batch of supplies, Shouhou handed in some first-order spiritual wine, Zhao Ning handed in some first-order elixirs, Dongzhou Commercial Bank handed in the most, and also handed in a few second-order healing elixirs . "
When Xu Lun said this, he felt a little distressed about the materials he had paid.
"Others are working hard in the front, we are enjoying peace in the rear, and it is reasonable to send out some supplies. If the Yaozu really breaks through the Dongzhou Cultivation Realm, it will be of no benefit to anyone."
Wang Hong spoke to comfort Xu Lun, and at the same time made clear his position.
As the supreme leader of this force, sometimes he needs to be the first to express his attitude, so that the people under him will not be confused and know what to do.
"Now the prices of various materials are rising, especially the increase of various pills and spirit wines. The business in our store is 30% better than before." Xu Lun said again.
"Well, next, our elixir, elixir, and elixirs will be sold normally according to market conditions, so there is no need to keep them.
In addition, try to buy some second-order refining materials and formation materials. "
Wang Hong then ordered that he does not lack such supplies as elixir and spirit wine, but what he lacks are such things as refining materials.
The two of them were idle for a while, and Wang Hong left. He went to find Luo Zhongjie.
There are two Foundation Establishment monks stationed in the valley, and there are also Foundation Establishment monks in several shops. Luo Zhongjie is now idle.
"Luo Zhongjie, I give you a mission, you help me go to the secular country to find some children with spiritual roots.
Recruit them back, and then you will train them intensively, and practice daily according to military methods. "
Wang Hong also experienced many battles in the Boundary Mountain Range.
He found that the fighting methods of the monks were relatively loose, casual, lacking organizational discipline, and there was little cooperation with each other, basically fighting each other.
In this way, although the monks are strong individually, their overall combat effectiveness is relatively poor.
On the other hand, the dozens of people under him are highly disciplined and cooperate with each other tacitly, allowing him to see the advantage.
"Boss, how many people should we recruit? What about the spirit root standard?"
"Let's recruit a hundred people first, and then we'll see the situation later. As for the spiritual roots, anyone with four or more spiritual roots can be recruited."
Wang Hong felt that recruiting 100 people is enough for now, and if there is a big turmoil in the future, he can rely on this to protect himself.
If the world is peaceful, he plans to form a caravan in the future and travel to major cities. These people can be used as caravan guards.
"Okay, I'll do it now." Luo Zhongjie took the order to retreat.
Before leaving Qingxu City, Wang Hong gave the same order to Liu Changsheng, asking him to recruit another hundred people.
But Liu Changsheng can't use military methods to practice, because he doesn't have such talents at all.
Wang Hong decided to let Liu Changsheng train in the way that shadow killers train killers. This is what he is good at.
Wang Hong made some arrangements for things in Qingxu City, then transformed into a somewhat burly old lady again, and returned to Qingxu Sect.
He doesn't know if Shadow Killer is still chasing him, but now is not the time to go head-to-head with Shadow Killer, just hide if you can.
After Wang Hong returned to Qingxu Sect, he continued to receive alchemy tasks, earn contribution points, and then use these contribution points to go to the library to exchange for the jade slips.
Due to the space, his learning speed is naturally very fast, so he has to receive a large number of alchemy tasks in order to obtain more contribution points.
