Chapter 594 Protection of monsters
Although the population on Qizhou Island doubled, the number of troops not only did not increase, but decreased.
Before in the Qingxu Mountains, in order to deal with the crisis, 600,000 troops were recruited.
Now Qizhou Island is temporarily in a safe environment, and there is no need to maintain so many troops, so more than half of the troops have been abolished in recent years.
Now there are only 200,000 of the best troops left, ready to train and take the route of elite soldiers.
As for the retrenched soldiers, they were all assigned to cultivate and plant spiritual fields.
Now the spiritual lands in the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, as long as they have middle-grade spiritual veins, even though there are not enough people to migrate there, these spiritual lands will be reclaimed.
Then plant some elixir or spiritual fruit trees. For these newly added spiritual fields, if they are close to the royal city, they will adopt refined management, and if they are far away, they will adopt extensive management.
Anyway, the land is vast and sparsely populated, as long as these spiritual fields can be planted, lower yields are acceptable.
After Wang Hong left the customs, he flew to the outside of the king's city. A large piece of spiritual valley outside the city had matured, and many warriors were harvesting it.
Due to the increase of spiritual fields, the production of spiritual grains has increased greatly. Now, all residents of Great Chu Immortal Kingdom can eat at least one meal of spiritual rice every day.
Many people can even eat second-order spiritual rice, which also leads to the steady progress of the entire nation's strength.
Wang Hong has now released the cultivation of second-order spiritual rice. There are many varieties of second-order spiritual rice. The second-order spiritual rice in Wang Hong's hands is the best quality among its kind.
With the same planting time, both yield and quality are higher than other second-order Lingmi.
The first- and second-tier spiritual fruit trees he transplanted from the space last time are still growing well outside the space, and a large number of spiritual fruits mature every year.
Xu Lun opened a special Linggu store and Lingguo store in Linhai City, and the business is pretty good.
Now the stores operated by the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom have opened into the three cities around Linhai City, and each city has more than a dozen shops.
Together with Linhai City, they can earn a large amount of spirit stones for the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom every year. Some of these spirit stones are reserved for development and expansion, and the rest are directly purchased in the city for suitable Shiyuan, and then transported back to Qi Chau Island.
Wang Hong was flying over a forest of spiritual fruits, but he saw a thin monkey flying towards him from a distance, so he stopped and waited.
"Your Majesty, you are out of customs! I happen to have something to find you."
"What's up?"
"I want to take a group of people to the Sea of Absolute Spirits to kill wild beasts."
"Oh, did the desolate beasts in the Absolute Spirit Sea offend you?" Wang Hong teased with a smile.
"That's not true. When I go here, I will definitely communicate with them friendly first. If the communication fails, I will do it."
Slim Monkey said seriously.
"Actually, I want to hunt some desolate beast blood crystals this time and come back. I have successfully advanced to Nascent Soul.
There are still many brothers without spiritual roots, who have already reached the peak of the third-level warrior, but cannot enter the fourth level. I want to help them. "
Shouhou finally revealed the purpose of his visit. Over the years, the Yingying Pills that Wang Hong cultivated had matured, and he refined a large number of Yingying Pills.
So, in recent years, a large number of Nascent Soul cultivators have emerged in the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom.
Including the first batch of monks who followed him, no matter how good or bad the spiritual root aptitude is, they have all formed Nascent Soul.
However, the monks accounted for only a very small part of the population of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, and most of them were ordinary people without spiritual roots, unable to cultivate immortals, they could only practice martial arts.
Now the best of these warriors have already reached the third rank of warriors, and their strength is comparable to that of Jindan monks.
But at this point, it seems that a bottleneck has been reached, and no further progress can be made.
At present, only Hu Jian has successfully reached the fourth level because of the use of the wild beast blood crystal.
If a path can be found that allows Tier 3 warriors to advance to the next level, by then, the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom will have the capital to fight head-to-head with the first-class forces even if there are no cultivators who have transformed themselves into gods.
"This matter is not yours alone. As the king of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, I am more responsible for this matter. I should go with you."
Of course, Wang Hong needs to participate in this matter. As the king of a country, he needs to maintain the relationship with his subordinates from time to time. The best way is to combine grace and power.
Go hunt wild beasts and do your part for the advancement of your subordinates. No matter whether you succeed or not, you can gain countless gratitude.
Otherwise, everyone is an independent individual, why do you have to be loyal to him.
He left the customs this time, and there were many things that he needed to solve.
In the past thirty years, with the improvement of everyone's cultivation base, especially the emergence of a large number of Nascent Soul monks, Qizhou Island's spiritual veins and spiritual energy have become insufficient.
If the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom wants to continue to develop, it must strengthen its spiritual veins.
If you want to obtain spiritual veins, you can also buy them at the auction like last time, but this is too slow and costs Lingshi.
He didn’t want to go to Fengwu Continent to **** it. If others didn’t offend him, he couldn’t do it. The most important thing was that there were too many masters there, so he didn’t dare.
The best way is to sneak back to Hezhou quietly and **** the spirit veins occupied by those monster races again.
I haven't snatched them for decades, I think I should regain some vitality.
Insufficient spiritual pulse is one aspect, and another aspect is that Qizhou Island is almost out of meat.
When they retreated from Hezhou, they fought several battles with the monster clan and collected a large amount of monster meat, which took a long time to bring here.
Before they raised all the monsters on the island as daily food.
However, when they were in Hezhou, they fought constantly. In order to quickly increase their strength, all of them ate monster meat every day.
Now these monsters on Qizhou Island can withstand so many people, eating every day, every month, every year.
Now the monsters on Qizhou Island have been protected, juvenile monsters and pregnant females are not allowed to be hunted.
This is actually Wang Hong's idea in Dongzhou, teaching everyone to use monsters as training resources, and eventually turn monsters into food and be eliminated by humans.
It's just that Hezhou Monster Beast didn't give him time to develop at all, and he was still in its infancy, so he was beaten by the monster clan and couldn't gain a foothold.
Now, he has tried his idea on Qizhou Island, and the effect is obvious. In just a few decades, the monster race on Qizhou Island has needed protection to survive.
Now that there is no meat to eat all of a sudden, the lifestyle that the people of the country have long been accustomed to cannot be changed for a while.
As a result, people often secretly hunted and killed the protected monsters, and the ban continued.
Now we can only obtain monster meat from the outside to supplement domestic consumption, so as to make up for the shortage.
Fengwu Continent will definitely not work. The monsters over there are allies.
Now the only place Wang Hong can think of is the Hezhou Yaozu.
