"Gulp!"

Opening with a critical hit, Long Long Eying looked at Liang Qu. Liang Qu's Adam's apple rolled, his pupils trembled. He gripped the ebony shaft, turned his thumb, and unfolded the gold-patterned scroll bit by bit, his gaze slowly moving downward.

"First place reward: Winning Fruit, the river waves are surging, the sea waves are vast, wanton and vast;

Second place: two Dao-Ascending Heavenly Pills, three Root-Sea Heavenly Pills, three Divine Ability Heavenly Pills;

Third place: compared to second place, Dao-Ascending Heavenly Pills, Root-Sea Heavenly Pills, and Divine Ability Heavenly Pills are reduced by one each.

Fourth to tenth place: choose one of the three types of Heavenly Pills; eleventh to twentieth place: Dao-Ascending Pills, Root-Sea Pills, Divine Ability Pills, choose two of the three; twentieth to thirtieth place: choose one of the three...

All participants, regardless of ranking, performance, or time, will receive one small Root-Sea Pill..."

"Dao-Ascending Heavenly Pill, Root-Sea Heavenly Pill, Divine Ability Heavenly Pill? What kind of pills are these? Tenth to twentieth place, why is there no 'Heavenly' character? Is it missing a word, or is the rank lowered by one level?" Xu Xu Yuelong was confused and looked at Liang Qu. He had never heard of the pills on the scroll.

Not to mention Xu Xu Yuelong, Liang Qu didn't understand either. He had never heard of them either, so he turned his head to look at the cloud giant.

The cloud giant understood and explained: "The rewards for this hunt are jointly held by immortals and are very generous. Because various creation medicines are diverse and it is difficult to specifically distinguish their value, the immortals joined hands to condense them into three types of Heavenly Pills: Dao, Qi, and Technique.

However, if the winners have needs, they can change the rewards, take the creation medicines directly, or refine them into other pills. This trip to find the Prince of Huai also has a reference consideration, seeking the Prince of Huai's opinion: is the reward setting reasonable? Does it need to be added or changed?

As for the effects, the Dao-Ascending Heavenly Pill is a rank-up pill. Taking the human race as an example, it can help a human Martial Saint 'sit in the temple' once; the Root-Sea Heavenly Pill is a pill that helps grow the root sea, which can help people increase their root sea by fifty times; the Divine Ability Heavenly Pill can help people condense one divine ability."

"You said, the Root-Sea Heavenly Pill can increase the root sea by fifty times?"

Liang Qu was even more shocked, staring fixedly at the three Root-Sea Heavenly Pills in second place.

One hundred and fifty times!

When ordinary demon dragons advance, most of them are over one hundred or two hundred years old, and the remaining five or six hundred years of life, normal cultivation until death, having three or four hundred times of root sea is already considered good. If life experience has opportunities like thunder tribulation, it might reach five hundred or six hundred.

One hundred and fifty times is equivalent to one-third, or even one-half, of the terrifying increase.

The Great Shun might not be able to produce such supreme pills.

"It won't be wrong. The Root-Sea Heavenly Pill is a fifty-fold increase; the Root-Sea Pill, missing the 'Heavenly' character, is not a leak. Just as Lord Xu said, it is a secondary treasure pill, which can increase by twenty times; as for the small Root-Sea Pill that everyone gets for participating, it is about five times.

My Emperor said that if this East Sea Great Hunt is truly held, those who come to participate are giving face to all the adults. No matter what, we will definitely not let the adults return empty-handed." The cloud giant looked a bit proud.

Xu Xu Yuelong was stunned that the dignified Whale Emperor could actually come to seek Liang Qu's opinion, and even more stunned by the domineering effects of several Heavenly Pills: "When you reach Martial Saint, can your cultivation realm still rely on pills to advance?"

The cloud giant was startled and thought for a moment.

"Lord Xu, in my opinion, you might have reversed the causal order."

Xu Xu Yuelong bowed: "Please enlighten me."

"It's not enlightenment. In the world, heavenly treasures are useless to the seventh realm. The creation medicines that can be matched with Heavenly Pills and are beneficial to the sixth realm are already the top of the current world, and there are no higher ones.

Similarly, only Martial Saints and Demon Kings are qualified to swallow Heavenly Pills to advance. In the current human race, there has never been a first-rank Martial Saint who died of old age, but there are those in the sixth or seventh rank who have exhausted their lifespan."

Liang Qu understood the meaning and added: "The thirteen steps to heaven are indeed difficult, but those who can cultivate to Martial Saint are all stunningly talented. Specifically to the first or second rank in front of us, it is not a difficult chasm to overcome, so there is no first-rank Martial Saint who naturally exhausts his lifespan.

Such outstanding people, getting help from the outside world, can naturally climb one or two more steps. Conversely, those who cannot cultivate to Martial Saint, without considering factors such as medicinal power refining, are useless even with more help."

Xu Xu Yuelong suddenly realized.

"That's the truth." The cloud giant bowed and saluted. "The purpose of this trip is mainly to send the scroll to the Prince of Huai, so that you know the general scope of the hunt rewards.

I implore the Prince of Huai to work hard and help my Emperor check for leaks and fill in the gaps. My Emperor said that he will definitely not let the Prince of Huai suffer a loss. If there are any ideas or suggestions that can be adopted, I will give the Prince of Huai a small Root-Sea Pill for each one!"

Liang Qu said solemnly: "I have just entered Martial Saint, my vision is narrow, I don't know the vastness of the world, what treasures there are, and I am not clear about the competition system of the East Sea Great Hunt. For a moment, I can't think of any good ideas..."

"It doesn't matter. The Great Hunt will be held in a few years, there is plenty of time, and the competition system has not been decided yet. You keep the scroll, it's not precious. If you have ideas, you can delete and change them directly on it, and we will formulate it together. If you want to hand it over to my Emperor, you can go to the East Sea Whale Emperor Palace, or the Sea Abyss Palace, and let the Shark King hand it over. I will also visit Pingyang from time to time."

"Hard work."

"For my Emperor's business, for the Prince of Huai's business, it is a happy event for the world."

After speaking, the cloud giant Yun Bo turned into ethereal flowing clouds and rushed to inform the other powerful forces.

The sky was clear as if washed, blue and boundless.

Dazed.

Xu Xu Yuelong came back to his senses: "Truly generous, a big deal."

"Yes... a big deal."

Liang Qu rubbed the words on the scroll.

It's the status fruit, and the Heavenly Pill. If you go, you have a guaranteed reward of a five-fold root sea increase.

The top thirty all have it. Compared to the number of participants and beasts, the probability of winning is not low.

If General Yuan, who said he wouldn't go, heard this, he might change his mind, go over to mix in the scene, and leave after mooching a free pill.

People's behavior is sometimes hindered by face. For example, a cartoon cloth shadow show, the heart wants to taste it, but hindered by face, feels embarrassed. When others ask, they just say they are not interested. But if everyone goes and there are acquaintances, the slight embarrassment naturally disappears.

Especially the first place small status fruit.

Communicate with the Ze Tripod.

【Ba Fruit】

【Authority: Drought Sha】

【Attribute: Disaster】

【Disaster is water and drought, the world is in famine, the drought demon brings disaster to the four fields.】

【Boundary Ritual: Ba Fruit, Winning Fruit, Fei Fruit, Yong Fruit, gather the four disasters, the Water Lord is the king, can light up the disaster boundary.】

Ba Fruit, Winning Fruit, Fei Fruit, Yong Fruit!

Gather the four disasters, the Water Lord is the king, can light up the disaster boundary.

The Winning Fruit belongs to one of the four disasters, the water disaster!

Liang Qu indeed had the idea of collecting them. Otherwise, he wouldn't have traveled thousands of miles to the desert to intersect with the Loulan Kingdom. At that time, burning his golden eyes and using the heavenly axis to look, the energy above the Loulan Kingdom was already very conspicuous. Could it be the one from Loulan?

And it's not just him...

"The Southern Border will definitely fight for their lives!" Xu Xu Yuelong said Liang Qu's second thought. "The river waves are surging, the sea waves are vast, wanton and vast.

The Southern Border has been slow to leave the water, the fake dragon becomes a real dragon, it is because the Lu Cang River is not wide enough and the water volume is insufficient. With this water-attribute status fruit, it's like a tiger adding wings. Maybe there will be a real dragon!

The Northern Court and the Southern Border Martial Saints will likely form an alliance to stop us!"

Liang Qu nodded. He clearly remembered the water-attribute long energy manufactured by the Southern Border.

The appearance of the status fruit is not only for the Heavenly Pill for individuals, but also makes the confrontation between forces more obvious. You have to go even if you don't want to. No one is stupid enough to hand over a small status fruit that plays a key role.

"Hoo." It was cold in winter, Xu Xu Yuelong exhaled a cold mist and packed up his boat and fish basket. "This matter is too big, I won't disturb you. I'll go back and arrange it early, and build the bathhouse on the mountain!"

The topic interrupted by Yun Bo continued, Liang Qu paused to think about the Great Hunt: "How do you plan to build the bathhouse?"

"Build it along the mountain, all wooden houses, use stones for the pools, just say it's a natural hot spring, high and low, overlooking the Great Marsh, autumn leaves falling, winter snow accumulating, and plant more flowers."

"You can do some 'integration'."

"'Integration'? How do you say?"

Liang Qu spread his fingers: "Eat fish rice, watch cloth shadows, play cards, even practice... It's best to keep people there for a few days, don't consume items separately, set up daily packages, cancel internal consumption, pull Xiang Fangsu for food, pull Ke Ko Wenbin for cards, Ran Ran Zhongshi understands cultivation..."

"Eh!" Xu Xu Yuelong's eyes lit up. "Sounds quite thoughtful, you really have it."

"I have a share, and I don't pay, so naturally I have to give some suggestions." Liang Qu shook the scroll in his hand. "If Big Brother Xu has any ideas, you can also tell me. If the Whale Emperor adopts them, I will get a small Root-Sea Pill and share the treasure fish with Big Brother Xu."

"Good! I'll think about it when I go back."

Xu Xu Yuelong carried the boat and ran to the shore, stepping on the 【Sky-Propping Pillars】 newly built by Liang Qu.

If you don't forget, there will be an echo, but if there is really an echo, there is no way.

There is only one plan.

Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover!

The Whale Emperor is a furnace, and it's useless to be anxious.

Before tearing the face, everyone is safe, so first do the work in front of you steadily.

This New Year in Pingyang is in full swing, and there are shortages of manpower everywhere.

After building the 【Sky-Propping Pillars】, Liang Qu went to Jiangchuan County on the way to check the latest cloth shadows in the theater.

There are more and more sharks in Jiangchuan County, breaking the mark of ten thousand sharks early. More than a thousand sharks have become professional voice actors. Under Long Dragon Lingxiao's intentional collection, there are already ten of them. Dozens of shows are operated a day, and the daily revenue can reach an astonishing five thousand taels, with a monthly income of one hundred and fifty thousand. After deducting costs, the profit is very high, which is an important source of tax revenue for Pingyang.

These thousands of households and tens of thousands of sharks are all rich and oily. With money, Brother Quan Brother Quan Linghan invested heavily in the infrastructure of Jiangchuan County according to Liang Qu's instructions, creating job opportunities, which has now become one of the main business locations for the Sea Shopkeeper.

The prosperity of the entire Pingyang is not only tax exemption, but more importantly, the job opportunities under this prosperity. In the past, when everyone was idle in winter, they would roast fire and brag at home. Now, they are all busy in winter, all going out to find odd jobs, making wealth circulate extremely quickly, and there are even fishermen who have watched several cloth shadow shows.

"According to the Lord's words, this year's new film, Jianghuai Building Boat Number... the effect is very good."

"Well, from now on, it's not just me creating..."

"Sharing model?"

"Yes, let everyone participate in writing scripts, and the revenue from the screening will be shared proportionally, encouraging excellent cloth shadows to be screened. From now on, there must be large theaters in my thirteen fiefs, playing the most wonderful cloth shadows, especially during the New Year and the Binghuo Day. There must be new films online. Clan Leader Brother Quan must work in this direction."

"Understood!"

Go to Shangrao again.

"There is a ten-day holiday for the New Year. The first batch of visitors are either rich or expensive, so nothing must happen. If there are any who are dizzy from water spiders and capsules, tell me, and count the proportion."

"Lord, rest assured." Li Li Shoufu bowed.

This New Year is in full swing.

Especially the Huaiyin Martial Hall!

The Huaiyin Martial Hall in Pingyang Prefecture has actually become the largest traffic entrance in the entire Pingyang Prefecture.

Liang Qu himself did not expect this.

The Huaiyin Martial Hall, with Yang Yang Dongxiong, the "Zhaowu Mr." personally conferred by the Holy Emperor, as the mountain leader, has new methods, visualization diagrams, and the world's first young Martial Saint as a role model.

Along the Huai River, many people took advantage of the New Year's holiday, took the waterway, and brought their children.

These people came with their families, just happened to take a tour in the order of the Martial Hall shade, Pingyang Mountain Temple, and Jiangchuan. There is no lack of people with vision, investing in the construction of inns, shops...

Xu Xu Yuelong shouted that he didn't build the bathhouse earlier to make a big profit.

Su Guishan, the prefect, shouted that it was enjoyable, having the illusion of self-satisfaction that the territory was flourishing rapidly under his own governance.

At the same time, he did not forget Liang Qu's entrustment last year and brought back good news.

The beaver tribe has been found!

And after negotiations, it was decided to send a vanguard force composed of more than a hundred big beavers to contact!

"Click, click!"

The monkeys pushed and pulled, sawing wood.

Three monkeys carried trees on their shoulders through the courtyard, and others sat in the corner, holding a wooden bucket to brush clear paint.

With blueprints tucked in their armpits, wearing small white hats, the big beaver directed the monkey workers, confirming that everything in the King's Mansion was in order. After that, it came to the pond full of sawdust, blew away the turbid sawdust, revealing the clean water surface, let the wife comb the hair on the top of the head neatly to the back of the head, bared its teeth, flicked it, confirmed it was still shining, and strode to the pier.

"Splash, splash."

Flat-tailed beavers drilled out of the waterway with the dignitaries visiting Pingyang, shaking their heads and tails, taking off the water stains, looking around. The leading beaver was very old, its beard drooping to the ground, half white and half brown, carrying a big hammer as tall as a person on its back, like a weapon and like a tool.

The outsiders panicked and retreated, and the Yixing people were not surprised.

On the pier, the old beaver and the big beaver were separated by a bluestone street, their eyes touched, and lightning flashed.

They passed through the crowd, through the flow of people, through the mountains and seas, and held their claws tightly.

"Click, click."

Sawdust flew.

The beavers behind gnawed on the wooden boards, blew away the yellow dust, revealing two tightly gripped sharp claws, recording this historic meeting.

Let the big beaver go to negotiate the conditions, leave the northern beaver tribe, build 【Sky-Propping Pillars】 outside the Dragon Palace, and prepare to build water islands again. Liang Qu, who wanted to reproduce the glory, received three more messages: a little mirage dragon, a fist, and A-Wei.

The little mirage dragon arrived at the place, the fist found the mineral vein, and A-Wei started to refine the natal Gu.

"Busy."

Liang Qu slumped in his chair, limbs drooping, and let out a long breath. He almost forgot about the natal Gu. He had been so busy these days that he was dizzy and didn't sleep.

First was the Whale Emperor's reward, then the New Year's big construction. No matter who his subordinates were, they didn't know the importance of urban planning, and the reservation of road traffic was also very petty.

In addition, tax policy, education policy, population, crime, farmland...

The faster you want to build a kingdom, the more problems will be exposed one after another, hindering progress.

Fortunately, the Martial Saint has plenty of energy and a bunch of people to help.

Too late to complain.

Let the fist contact Long Long Zong Yin, discuss the use of the mineral vein, and confirm that A-Wei is temporarily free.

【Spirit Descent】!

Loulan.

"Boss! Arrived at the destination, mission accomplished!" The little mirage dragon's dragon claws touched its horns.

"Well done."

"Hehe."

The winter in Loulan is ten times colder than in Pingyang, with sand flying in the desert, making it even more desolate.

After becoming a Martial Saint, Loulan has become a territory that Liang Qu cannot easily set foot in, so he has never been here.

Golden eyes are burning.

The originally filled heaven and earth energy, the bright yellow sky, is empty.

"Sure enough!"

The Winning Fruit picked by the Whale Emperor is eight or nine out of ten from the Loulan Kingdom!

When he took away the Blue Lake Ba Fruit, Liang Qu felt inspired, thinking that things would turn against each other. Blue Lake had a drought, the desert had a water disaster, so he came to Loulan Kingdom to see.

Who knew it was really like this? The heaven and earth energy of Loulan Kingdom was thicker than the sky above Blue Lake, and it directly let him harvest a wisp of yellow sand long energy. Maybe without any extra operation, a small status fruit would naturally be conceived within the Jiazi year.

The Snow Mountain can blood sacrifice, Liang Qu can use blood treasure, the Whale Emperor's methods are naturally only more, not less.

"Was it intentional or accidental?"

Just from this point, the Whale Emperor is not necessarily intentionally using the Winning Fruit as a reward.

The status fruit will not wait for people to take it. Even if it cannot be calculated and laid out in advance, due to its huge movement, it mostly appears and disappears. Which status fruit is about to appear is not controlled by human power.

Damn it.

Forget it.

Write it down.

The Whale Emperor picked his Winning Fruit and used it as someone else's reward.

This is unbearable.

"Ding-dang, ding-dang."

Camel bells rang.

The camel caravan stepped on the sand dunes and passed by slowly. Liang Qu immediately flicked his dragon tail and flew into the caravan to hide, wanting to eavesdrop on the news secretly to see if any "white clouds" had drifted over before, to further verify his conjecture.

Listen for a while.

"What kind of bird language is this."

Gibberish, I don't know what dialect it is. Liang Qu decisively gave up and told the little mirage dragon: "You pay more attention, see if there are any merchant teams from the Great Shun, and call me if there are."

"Obey, Boss, guarantee to complete the mission!"

Consciousness left the little mirage dragon.

Without stopping, second 【Spirit Descent】!

Southern Border, Green Pattern Valley.

Open your eyes.

Arrays, materials, incense... dazzling materials piled up around, Li Xianghan knelt and prayed.
