Chapter 42: Break the whole into parts and develop on their own! (Please read and recommend!)
Xizhou, in the center of the desert, is the secret base of the Black Demon Cult and the Demon Guards.
Li Mufeng had established this stronghold a long time ago, and it was completely independent of other strongholds.
The Black Evil monks and Demon monks who practice and train here were all independent cultivators selected by the Black Evil Sect from various places in Yue State a few years ago. The moment they were selected, they were transferred to this stronghold and had no idea about the other strongholds of the Black Evil Sect. As for their relationship with the Independent Cultivators' Union, these guys don't even know about the Independent Cultivators' Union yet.
After coming here, they never left again.
Not to mention Li Mufeng's true appearance, even the three words Li Mufeng are rarely heard. They are like a group of ghosts wandering in the world.
Some of them with good qualifications generally choose to become Black Demon Monks, while some with even worse qualifications, not only do they have no talent for cultivation, their qualifications are also pseudo-spiritual roots, and they have no hope of building a foundation in their entire lives, so naturally they only have the option of becoming Demon Monks.
The person in charge here is Wen Kang, the leader of the evil monks.
There are a total of two hundred people here. Originally, they were all low-level or even mid-level Qi Refining cultivators.
But now, there are a total of twenty-five foundation-building cultivators, among which there are twenty Demon Demon cultivators who practice the Demon Demon Art, and the other five are Black Demon cultivators who practice other art techniques.
The other 175 people are all high-level Qi Refining disciples, and the lowest one is at the tenth level of Qi Refining.
The ability to train this group of people was thanks to the second batch of spiritual medicines provided by Han Li.
The first batch of spiritual medicines helped Li Mufeng establish the Free Cultivators Guild, and Li Mufeng invested all of the second batch of spiritual medicines here. Now, after implementing the premium and collecting spiritual medicines and refining elixirs, the Free Cultivators Guild has not only achieved self-sufficiency, but has also begun to provide blood transfusions here.
Li Mufeng stood on a high platform wearing a mask, his eyes sweeping over the two hundred people present.
Twenty-five foundation-building monks took the lead and stood in the front, with their heads lowered and half-kneeling on the ground.
"Everyone, I believe that for several years, you have been forced to practice in this prison-like place for more than a thousand days and nights. I believe that everyone must be resentful."
"However, I once promised everyone that I would give everyone freedom, and today is the day to fulfill my promise."
Hearing Li Mufeng's words, everyone present was excited, and the twenty-five people leading in front also raised their heads and stared at Li Mufeng.
Speaking of which, have they felt suffocated in this small base all these years?
There is no doubt that it is very frustrating.
But no matter how miserable it is, it is not that serious. Here are cultivation resources that this group of casual cultivators have never seen before, or even thought of.
Here, they get all this without paying any price.
Of course, everyone knows that these are only temporary and there is no free lunch in the world.
However, this does not prevent everyone from practicing hard and consuming these resources desperately, because if you don’t want them, they will be snatched away by others in the next second.
"You all know in your hearts that although I have restricted your freedom, I have never treated you unfairly in terms of cultivation resources."
"But everything is over today."
"From today on, if you want to get more pills, if you want to get more foundation-building pills, you need to exchange them for points!"
"Next, you will be divided into groups, led by a foundation-building cultivator or a cultivator who has reached the perfection of Qi training. You will be sent to the four major directions of east, south, west, and north. You will not have any tasks, and there are no restrictions!"
"To do or not to do, to work or not to work, is all voluntary."
"But there are a few principles that I still want to inform everyone of."
"First, killing mortals is not allowed."
"Second, you are not allowed to kill your companions."
"Of course, I believe that everyone has been here for so long, and they must be eager to make a move, and they are very dissatisfied with me. I am here, and I welcome everyone's betrayal! Or violate the above two basic principles."
When Li Mufeng said this, the people below did not feel as excited and happy as they had imagined.
After several years of training here, everyone knows what this means.
"Of course, betrayal means being hunted down! If you are taken back, you will become blood food for others! You will become a petri dish for cultivating the blood-coagulating five-element pill!"
"Finally, I'll give you a little advice."
"Try not to take the initiative to capture other monks. This world is huge. If you take the initiative to follow others and want to hunt them, you will easily become the prey. If you are killed, no one will be willing to avenge you. Please cherish your life."
"Prepare an escape route in advance in case the hunting mission fails, prepare the formation in advance, prepare the talisman traps in advance, and prepare spare magic tools in advance. All of these are crucial to you."
“It is better not to do it than to do it wrong. Be fully prepared before taking action.”
"Okay, that's all I have to say. I believe that the above is enough knowledge for you during the training."
"I won't say any more."
"Next, I will introduce you to your respective leaders in the east, south, west and north."
pop-
Li Mufeng clapped his hands, and four monks wearing masks from the four directions of east, south, west and north walked up.
"Is there anyone who refuses to accept? If you defeat them, you can take his place as the person in charge."
After hearing what Li Mufeng said, some people below immediately became restless.
"I don't agree!"
"I want a challenge!"
The man was wearing a bronze lion mask, and his cultivation was at the peak of the initial stage of foundation building.
The person who came said this, pointing to the north among the four people above.
"In that case, let's get started."
"No matter what method you use, if you take off his mask, you win."
"Naturally, you become Bei."
Li Mufeng stood aside and signaled that they could begin.
The man immediately entered the demonization state, while Bei just watched quietly in the stands, as if waiting for the other party to complete the demonization, with no intention of taking action.
After a while, the huge blood cocoon that the man had transformed into broke open, and a sharp claw like that of a monster stretched out from it. It was actually a body that had been completely transformed into a monster, and its cultivation had also been improved from the early stage of foundation building to the middle stage of foundation building.
"Demonization? Interesting."
"In that case, let me show you my little tricks."
As he spoke, blood began to shine all over that person's body. After that, his aura began to surge, and he turned into a humanoid blood lion monster. His cultivation had also reached the middle stage of foundation building.
Although they were both in the middle stage of foundation building, Bei's strength was far superior to that of the challenger.
Speed, strength, reaction, magic power, magic weapons, all of these were crushed, and soon, the human-shaped blood lion stepped on the man.
There was no unexpected crushing. The battle was over.
"Any more?"
Li Mufeng asked with a calm look.
"If you don't have any, then come and collect your start-up funds. Each combat team can get a set of formations, as well as one hundred elementary, intermediate, and advanced talismans. The leader of the combat team can also get an additional top-grade magic weapon."
As he spoke, Li Mufeng opened a storage bag and some formations flew out of it.
Skywind Fierce Array
Fantasy Sky Array
Blue waves
Fire Spirit Array
Golden Curse Light Splitting Array
Liuhe Qingguang Array
Mumu Wanbind Array
It includes formations of the five basic attributes of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, in addition to wind formations, thunder formations and ice formations.
In addition, there were piles of talismans floating in the air, as well as various magical instruments.
The combat teams had already been divided among themselves.
A combat team consists of five or six people at most, or two or three people at least.
The bronze lion-masked man who was originally stepped into the ground by Bei also struggled to get up from the ground and took the things that belonged to his team.
"Since all the things have been given away, I would like to wish you all good luck. I hope that when we meet again next time, some of you here will have become Jindan cultivators."
After hearing Li Mufeng's words, everyone present breathed heavily.
Let alone becoming a Foundation Establishment cultivator, for this group of people, even becoming a Foundation Establishment cultivator is something they dare not even think about on a normal day. But now they have the opportunity to become a Core Forming cultivator!
Although the evil pill is condensed from the blood-condensed Five Elements Pill, its strength is far inferior to that of a real Jindan cultivator, but its lifespan will not change at all, which is enough of a luxury for them!
Originally, they could only be Qi Refining monks their entire lives, but now they have the hope of becoming Jindan monks through their own efforts!
Thinking of this, everyone's eyes were filled with enthusiasm, but I don't know how long this enthusiasm can last.
How many people can survive?
squeak - squeak -
As the heavy sound of the gate rang out, a huge passage appeared in front of everyone. This was the freedom they had longed for for thousands of days and nights!
These monks flew out quickly like fish into the sea and birds out of a cage.
After these monks left, Li Mufeng looked towards the remaining people in the east, south, west and north.
"Break the whole into parts and develop on your own. How far you can achieve is entirely up to you."
"You are all my trusted generals! Remember, your life comes first."
As Li Mufeng spoke, four brand new talismans appeared in his hands.
"Changhong Sword, Seven Star Knife, Bone Arrow, Snake Gallbladder Spear."
"Also, there is a Reversed Five Elements Formation here that can exert half of its power. It is all left for you to defend yourself."
"I still have some Bi Yuan Dan that can be used by Foundation Establishment cultivators. You can take some with you."
As they spoke, four sets of formations, four talismans, and pills fell into their hands.
"Magic tools, magic treasures, spiritual medicines, natural treasures, talismans, elixirs, I am a hungry person who wants everything. After all, I have a large group of people, which consumes a lot of money. If I get too much, I won't mind it. If I get too little, I won't be happy."
Dong, looking at the things in his hands, especially the inverted five elements formation, to be honest, he was really shocked.
Pills that can be used during the Foundation Establishment Period are rare items in their Xuanjian Village. Like the Foundation Establishment Pill, it takes two to three hundred years to refine some of them. As for the name of the Small Forbidden Formation of the Reversed Five Elements, it is not given for nothing.
Although it can only exert half of its power, this half of its power is enough to trap any Foundation Establishment cultivator. Even a Jindan cultivator can be trapped for a period of time, enough for them to escape.
Li Mufeng looked towards the north.
"Bei, you were originally a hidden player, but things are going well and you are no longer needed."
Bei was originally a spy he left in the Black Evil Sect, responsible for monitoring the Black Evil Sect and doing some dirty work. However, his development is going smoothly now and he has more than enough manpower, so naturally there is no need for him to stay in the Black Evil Sect to monitor anything.
The increase in the number of evil demon monks is enough for the time being.
"Everything I have is given by you, and I will obey your orders."
Bei spoke immediately.
"Okay, you guys can go too."
East includes the Yue Kingdom area, but generally speaking it is towards the direction of the Demonic Tianluo Kingdom.
To the south, it is towards the Nine-Nation Alliance and Mulan Grassland.
The west is mainly the Righteous Alliance and Fengdu Kingdom.
North, mainly towards Xi Country, which is the future Tiandao League.
Of course, Li Mufeng was not so confident about the people he sent out.
So in addition to these, he also has a monitoring team led by Wen Kang and the evil demon monks, who are responsible for monitoring the Black Demon Cult instead of Bei.
There is also a hunting team led by Xue Lan.
After all, there will be more and more independent cultivators joining the battle in the future, and establishing a complete system in advance is a necessary prerequisite for healthy development.
In addition, after this incident, he transferred Su Feiyan back to Jingzhou. On the surface, she served as the president of the union, and Jiang Chuan and Jiang Jing served as vice presidents, with Su Feiyan managing it secretly.
Li Mufeng needs to adjust the focus of his work next, the first of which is cultivation.
He found that he seemed to have overestimated himself, and his five spiritual roots still caused him some troubles in his qualifications.
The Immortal Sword Sutra and the Emperor Willow Sutra did bring about changes to him, but his comprehension of the techniques and his cultivation level are limited, so the changes are also limited.
There have been changes, but not much.
Secondly, he needs to focus on the seven sects. Now that the shark has been sent out, it is only a matter of time before it hunts for food on the monks of these sects. He does not have the energy to take care of other places, but he still needs to leave a nail of his own in the seven sects of Yue State to provide himself with the movements of the seven sects.
He needs to observe the reactions of the seven factions.
In addition, we also need to prepare for the upcoming Chaos Star Sea plan.
