Chapter 307

After Hua Changxi returned to Danyuan Peak, her mood could not calm down. Thinking of Nanxiang City and the twelve blessed lands guarding Nanxiang City manifested by the Zhou Tian Xing Chen Pan, she flashed into the secret realm and teleported directly to the Lingguang Palace.

Due to the entry of cultivators from all over the place into the capital, the Lingguang Palace also ushered in a peak of worship.

Looking at the hundreds of figures moving forward with difficulty on the square, Hua Changxi's heart moved, and the "Zhu Que Army Roster" appeared in her hand.

"More than 15,000 Zhu Que soldiers..."

Hua Changxi didn't expect that deploying display spiritual artifacts in various places not only solved the problem of the five holy lands recruiting disciples but also incidentally allowed the Lingguang Palace to enter the sight of cultivators from all over the place, promoting the recruitment progress of the Zhu Que Army.

This was truly an unexpected joy!

In fact, the influence of the display spiritual artifacts was far from limited to this.

If the earth-shattering battle at Mount Wuzhi marked that the recovery of spiritual energy had fully entered everyone's sight, then the deployment of display spiritual artifacts marked that cultivators from all over the place, who were only fixed in their hometowns, began to flow and had the motivation to explore outward.

It can be said that with the flow and exchange of cultivators, the cultivation era of the Four Spirits World has truly arrived.

Although the Zhu Que Army had increased, Hua Changxi was not very happy.

No other reason; the more Zhu Que soldiers there were, the greater the consumption.

Except for the cultivation techniques in the Transmission Platform and the advantage of rich fire spiritual energy suitable for cultivation, the Lingguang Palace did not have the advantage of the Danyuan Secret Realm, which provided rich resources to supply her to train apprentices.

That is to say, she had to support all the Zhu Que soldiers!

One hundred thousand Zhu Que soldiers, how many resources would this consume?

The more Hua Changxi thought about it, the more her head ached. She didn't look at the cultivators on the square who wanted to worship, but returned directly to the main hall, took out paper and pen, and drew Nanxiang City and the twelve blessed lands.

"Twelve blessed lands guard Nanxiang City, so the existence of the twelve blessed lands is all to serve Nanxiang City?"

"The Lingguang Palace is the garrison of the Zhu Que Army, so one of the duties of the Zhu Que Army is to maintain the stability of Nanxiang City."

"Then the other blessed lands... could they be places that provide resources for the Zhu Que Army?"

Hua Changxi wrote and drew on the paper, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt her guess was correct.

But in this way, to ensure the resource supply of the Zhu Que Army, wouldn't she have to grab the other eleven blessed lands?

Hua Changxi's head throbbed with pain. Not to mention the various layouts of the royal family for Nanxiang City, even the demon race was involved. She was still confident in grabbing one or two blessed lands, but she really didn't have the confidence to grab all eleven blessed lands.

"No, no!"

"Thought wrong!"

"Gathering the twelve blessed lands should be the responsibility of the Nanxiang City Lord. The Lingguang Palace is responsible for maintaining the stability of Nanxiang City, so it should ask the City Lord for wages."

Thinking this way, Hua Changxi immediately felt relaxed.

As for who would become the Nanxiang City Lord, it was not up to her to decide, so there was no need to think too much; thinking was useless.

"The Zhu Que Army has more than 15,000 people, it can't be as scattered as before, it needs to be divided into teams."

"Don't worry about the ten-thousand-man commanders yet, but the candidates for thousand-man commanders should be identified."

Hua Changxi intended to take advantage of the matter of investigating the vision of Nanxiang City to mix into the Zhu Que Army to examine the candidates for thousand-man commanders.

"Sigh..."

There were still a lot of things on Danyuan Peak, and she had to go to the No. 6 Pavilion in November to teach apprentices alchemy. Now she had to be busy with the Lingguang Palace. She knew that some things could not be taken over casually.

"Whether it's Danyuan Peak or Lingguang Palace, I need to train more capable helpers!"

Hua Changxi posted the "Announcement on the Selection of Thousand-Man Commanders in Lingguang Palace" in the Mission Hall, letting those who were interested be prepared, and then teleported back to Danyuan Peak.

Danyuan Peak under the moonlight was quiet and peaceful. Hua Changxi was planning to go to the bamboo house to extract the snake demon's essence blood when she suddenly noticed spatial fluctuations in the north of Danyuan Peak and immediately flew there.

The location to the north of Danyuan Peak was gray, which was where the barrier was, blocking people from continuing to go deeper.

When she first investigated the surroundings of Danyuan Peak, Hua Changxi had tried to break the barrier to explore inside, but unfortunately, she failed.

But at this moment, she actually saw Dugu Lie coming out from inside the barrier.

In Dugu Lie's hand, he held a green wooden sword. She saw the wooden sword gently swipe, and it cut an opening in the barrier.

"That wooden sword is..."

Hua Changxi's eyes vibrated, and she remembered the unique token of the holy land successors that Tong Yao had told her about—the Divine Wood Sword!

"Senior Brother Dugu!"

A voice mixed with anger sounded. Hua Changxi looked for the sound and saw Wan Feng running toward Dugu Lie with an annoyed expression.

Wan Feng was anxious: "Senior Brother Dugu, didn't I say that you can't enter the forbidden area casually? If the Peak Master discovers it, our identities won't be hidden."

Dugu Lie: "... I didn't mean to. It's just that I reached the critical point of breakthrough. If I don't enter the forbidden area, my cultivation level won't be hidden."

Hearing this, Wan Feng couldn't say much: "Let's leave here quickly, don't let anyone see us."

"Senior Brother Dugu, although there is a reason for this, next time you want to enter the forbidden area, it's best to tell me, so I can explore where the Peak Master is in advance."

"Don't look at the Peak Master who usually stays in the secret realm and doesn't come out; this doesn't mean she won't patrol Danyuan Peak."

Dugu Lie: "Okay, next time I want to enter the forbidden area, I will definitely tell you in advance."

After Wan Feng and Dugu Lie walked away, Hua Changxi landed from the air, looking at their backs: "They are actually the successors of the Dan Saint Palace!"

It's just that she couldn't understand why they were hiding like this?

Even if their identities were exposed, what could happen?

Compared to other holy lands, the recovery degree of the Dan Saint Palace was definitely leading. If the successors of the Dan Saint Palace appeared and played a leading role, maybe they could end the complicated and chaotic situation of the Medical Department as soon as possible!

Hua Changxi also thought that the successors of the Dan Saint Palace could plant people on Danyuan Peak, and they could also plant people elsewhere.

So, they wanted to take the "mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind" route?

After people like her and Meng Qingyao, who were in the front, fought to the death, they would come out to pick up the bargain?

Thinking this way, Hua Changxi instinctively felt dislike: "Compared to the successors of other holy lands, the successors of the Dan Saint Palace are too irresponsible!"

"If you want to be a tortoise, then keep being one."

Hua Changxi withdrew her gaze and looked at the barrier. After failing to break the barrier again, she flew back to the bamboo house on the peak, took out the snake demon's corpse, and began to refine the essence blood.

After sealing the extracted essence blood, the sky was already bright.

Just at this time, Pharmacist Xu sent a message: "Peak Master, Pavilion Master Huo is here, saying he is here to send you the demon beast corpses."

After Hua Changxi received the message, she went directly to the Personnel Department.

Huo Yunxiao directly placed the corpses of the three Infant-Transformation demon beasts at the foot of Danyuan Peak, attracting many people to watch.

After Hua Changxi arrived, she waved her hand and collected the demon beast corpses into her Sumeru Mustard, then looked at Huo Yunxiao: "What demon beast blood do you want?"

Huo Yunxiao leaned in front of Hua Changxi: "I don't want demon beast blood. Can you answer me a question?"

Hua Changxi: "Go ahead."

Huo Yunxiao put away his smile: "Is the body-refining technique practiced by the Hua clan members obtained by you from the Qihuang Pavilion?"

Hua Changxi glanced at him and didn't speak.

Huo Yunxiao directly took it as her default: "To tell you the truth, the Tian Department also has other body-refining techniques, but those techniques have great flaws. Either they require drinking demon beast blood, or they require using demon beast blood to boil medicinal baths. Do you know what the result of using demon beast blood is?"

Hua Changxi's eyes flickered.

Huo Yunxiao: "They will become bloodthirsty, and even some demonization characteristics will appear. Many such people have already appeared in the Demon-Suppressing Army."

"We have studied the body-refining technique you gave to the Hua clan members. It is the most suitable body-refining technique for the human race to practice among the body-refining techniques we have mastered so far."

"You should know that cultivators with spiritual roots are in the minority after all. Most people don't have spiritual roots, and if they want to practice, they can only rely on body refining."

"Therefore, the Tian Department wants to exchange with you for the complete body-refining technique of the Qihuang Pavilion."

Hua Changxi shook her head: "I can't exchange it. I haven't fully understood the body-refining technique in the Qihuang Pavilion." Seeing Huo Yunxiao's disbelieving face, she paused.

"How about this, I will let Yu Fu post the first three volumes of the Qihuang Body-Refining Technique at the entrance of the Medical Department later. If you want it, go and copy it. As for the later body-refining chapters, I am really powerless for now."
