C920 The State of Fallen Immortal City
Yun Yang said, "Reporting to the city lord, Ever Triumphant Army has entered deep mountains and forests during this month's time to fight a bloody battle. A total of 258,634 Foundation Establishment demonic beasts have been killed, and 3845 Golden Core demonic beasts have been killed. There are eight Nascent Soul demonic beasts and countless Qi Refining demonic beasts. There were 396 cultivators from the Ever Triumphant Army who had fallen, and all of them were injured. Countless of them were seriously injured. Currently, we have returned to the military camp to recuperate."
Lee Hao nodded his head in satisfaction. The result of the battle was very brilliant.
That was for sure!
Although the individual combat strength of demon beasts was stronger than the cultivators of Human Clan, they wouldn't cooperate with each other. It wasn't like this time when the Ever Triumphant Army sent out a hundred thousand cultivators at the same time. They could only be described as easily destroyed.
Not to mention, the combat strength of the warriors of Ever Triumphant Army who had exchanged their cultivation techniques had obviously increased by a large margin. Although it wasn't obvious at the beginning, it had become more and more obvious in the later stages. The more times they fought, the more obvious their improvement would be. By now, they could compete with demon beasts of the same level. And he could win.
Of course, they were all ordinary demon beasts. If they were replaced by high-level demon beasts with powerful bloodlines, it would be good if they could survive under the same level.
"How many Spirit Veins did you find?" Lee Hao asked. Although the corpses of demon beasts were good items that could be converted into various kinds of cultivation resources, the Spirit Vein was the reason why the Ever Triumphant Army had come out in full force this time.
"There are 600 Low-grade Spirit Vein and 5 Mid-grade Spirit Vein!" Yun Yang replied.
It was not a lot, but the rarity of the Spirit Vein was destined to be rare. It was already good enough to be able to find these. At least building two new cities would not be a problem.
Although they had gained a lot, they had also paid a heavy price. Everyone was injured, and there were countless seriously injured people. Just the amount of Pure Spiritual Qi needed for treatment alone was more than ten billion.
If it was converted into ordinary Spirit Stone, it would be an astronomical figure. One had to know that a single Pure Spiritual Qi was worth ten thousand ordinary Spirit Stone.
Over ten trillion Spirit Stone, this was an enormous number. Even the two counties of Tiannan County and Pingwu County did not have so many Spirit Stones produced in a thousand years.
And this was only the consumption of simple Spirit Stone. More importantly, in the entire Spirit Realm, there was only Lee Hao's family who could treat heavily injured cultivators on a large scale. There was no distinction between them.
Everyone in Spirit Realm knew that the more demon beasts gathered in the land, the more Spirit Vein there would be. However, not many major powers would harvest the Spirit Vein. The reason was that the price was too high.
Could a few hundred Low-grade and a few Mid-grade Spirit Vein be compared to a hundred thousand Cultivator Army? Obviously not.
Only Lee Hao, who had a heaven defying ability, would dare to do such a thing. The cultivators of Ever Triumphant Army knew about this, and that was why they dared to kill the demon beasts even if they were severely injured.
As for those who died, this was unavoidable. There would always be those with bad luck who would lose their lives on the spot.
However, this was still a small number of them, and it was nothing compared to the fruits of their labor. Furthermore, Lee Hao and Yin Zhong were waiting for them.
This was what Lee Hao was going to do next.
"How's the construction of the new city going?" Lee Hao asked again. The construction of the new city and the Ever Triumphant Army's search for Spirit Vein were carried out at the same time. They would first build a city like the secular world, and wait for the Spirit Vein to be in place before setting up the formation.
"This... This..." Yun Yang hesitated for a moment and said, "The construction has not started yet."
"Why?" Lee Hao's face darkened. The construction of the new city was the most important part. Even without the Spirit Vein and the City-defending Array, it could still play the role of the market. He didn't believe that there was someone who didn't have eyes in the Xianlin Mountain who dared to cause trouble in his territory.
However, this was exactly what happened.
Yun Yang smiled bitterly and said, "There are many local cultivation families in the Xianlin Mountain, although their strength is not as strong as the Liu, Wu, and Yun families. But each family has a Cultivator of Nascent Infant Period, so they can be considered a powerful force. They joined forces to resist, saying that having a Fallen Immortal City in Xianlin Mountain was enough. There's no need to build a new city."
"Oh?"
Lee Hao instantly understood what these people were thinking. It was because they were afraid that he would crush their market, so they joined forces to resist.
If they resisted, the city would naturally be destroyed.
Ever Triumphant Army entered the mountain to search for Spirit Vein, and the warship was destroyed by Lee Hao. Currently, they were still nervously setting up formations. The task of building the city fell on the city defense army that they had recruited during this period of time.
In the past, the city defense army could only be regarded as Lee Hao's peripheral force. They did not need to pay any loyalty, and they enjoyed the same treatment as South-suppressing King and Pingwu King's soldiers.
The so-called prefecture soldiers referred to the city defense. There were not only cultivators inside, but also warriors, which were very mixed.
As for why it was like this, to put it bluntly, these people were laborers, and they did some rough work.
For example, collecting taxes, building cities, mining and planting spirit herbs were all part of the city defense army's work. How could it compare to the Ever Triumphant Army? They were cultivators who specialized in combat.
The resources needed to feed a cultivator who specialized in combat were too much. The city defense army was undoubtedly much easier to raise, and it was also the largest group of people.
If they were asked to build a city, any of the local tyrants would stand out and oppose them. They could only do nothing about it.
Lee Hao did not blame the city defense army. This was not their fault. However, he was somewhat dissatisfied with Yun Yang. The Yun Family was a native family in Xianlin Mountain. It had a lot of connections with these people. When someone spoke, it was naturally embarrassing.
However, one should know that the Yun Family was Lee Hao's subordinate right now. If these people opposed Lee Hao, it would mean that they didn't give Lee Hao any face. The Yun Family had no other choice but to stand on Lee Hao's side.
Lee Hao snorted coldly and said, "The matter of building a city cannot be delayed. You will personally lead your men to do it. If anyone dares to oppose you, ask him to come and find me. If anyone dares to destroy the new city, just destroy them. "
Lee Hao was filled with killing intent. Beads of sweat even appeared on Yun Yang's forehead. He didn't dare to persuade Lee Hao, so he could only nod his head in agreement.
There were many rogue cultivators in Xianlin Mountain, and there were also many rogue cultivator families. If a famous rogue cultivator family joined forces, their strength would be even greater than the Fallen Immortal City in the past.
However, with the appearance of the battleship, these people were destined to be clowns. They were like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, overestimating themselves.
Lee Hao estimated that these people only dared to jump up and down when they saw that the warship in Fallen Immortal City had disappeared. If the two hundred warships were still outside of Fallen Immortal City, perhaps no rogue cultivator family would dare to cause trouble.
The construction of the new warship was a secret of the entire City Lord Mansion. Very few people knew about it, and it was impossible for the outside world to know about it.
Lee Hao didn't want to publicize it. He wanted to see which rogue cultivator families would jump out and kill the chicken to warn the monkeys.
Yun Yang received the order and left. Lee Hao didn't stay in the City Lord Mansion for long. He went to the treasury to collect the Spirit Stone.
Another month passed. The Spirit Stone storehouse that was robbed by Lee Hao previously had a lot of Spirit Stone piled up. These were all obtained from selling Pure Spiritual Qi during this period of time.
In the Desolation Land, the Pure Spiritual Qi could be sold so well. In the Spirit Realm, there was no need to think too much about it. It would be a waste to earn Spirit Stone. In just a short month, another few tens of billions of Spirit Stones were added into the account.
Lee Hao did not take all of them. He only took half of them. 15 billion Spirit Stone. It should be enough to cure the cultivators of the Ever Triumphant Army.
Originally, Lee Hao had stored a lot of spiritual energy in his Immortal Jade. But this time, he had used up all the spiritual energy in his Immortal Jade. However, with the high-grade Spirit Vein and the nine middle-grade Spirit Vein, the spiritual energy inside would gradually become lush. That was why Lee Hao left half of it behind in case of emergencies.
