Chronicles of Celestial Origins

On this day, Tang Ning came out of the bamboo house, and everyone in the Secret Academy had gathered and was waiting for him.

He waved his hand and said, "Let's go." Everyone took up their magic weapons and jumped into the air. The stewards of each department appeared in front of them.

The group left the formation and flew south along the mountains for two to three hundred miles. Tangning pointed downward and said, "Junior brothers, let's camp here."

Naturally, no one had any objections.

The group of people landed in the forest. Tang Ning turned over his hand and took out a set of formation flags. He directed the disciples from the Intelligence Department to place them in the designated positions. He also ordered everyone to build the formation altar. After working hard for a long time, it was finally completed.

He took out the formation disk and tapped it gently. The formation flags rose in the wind until they were several feet in size. They emitted a dazzling light and gathered on the formation altar.

Many rays of light converged in one place and gradually formed a cyan light curtain. As time went by, the light curtain grew larger and larger, covering an area of ​​hundreds of feet in radius.

Tang Ning then directed everyone to set up a sound transmission array to get in touch with the main camp. After everything was completed, he gathered all the department managers in one place.

"According to Uncle Cheng's instructions, we will build a camp between the south of the Wancong Mountains and the main camp. From then on, we will distribute guards every ten miles, all the way to the main camp."

"The southernmost point of the Wancong Mountain Range is about four to five hundred miles away from the main camp, and requires fifty posts. I intend to assign half of the disciples to guard the post, and the remaining disciples will stay in the camp, and the guard changes will still be made on a rotating basis."

"Since we and the camp are on a three-month schedule, then we should be on a one-and-a-half-month schedule. What do you think, junior fellow apprentices?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Tang Ning continued: "Well, this month, the Security Department, the Secret Security Department, and the Discipline Department will be on guard. Junior Brother Gao, Junior Brother Xu, you two will lead the Security Department disciples to the south and build twenty observation towers that stretch all the way here. Camp, station there, and you two will provide support among the disciples."

"Junior Brother Chen, Junior Brother Feng, you two will lead the secret security department disciples to the north, build twenty observation towers, extending all the way to the camp, and station them there. You two will be in the middle among the disciples to provide support."

"Junior Brother Fang, you lead the disciples of the Discipline Department to advance a hundred miles and build ten observation towers. You support them among the disciples."

"Once it is discovered that the Demon Sect is attacking, everyone on the observation tower will raise fireworks as a signal and retreat to the camp."

"I will keep the central array of the outer array, and we will take turns to see the value of the sound transmission array inside."

Everyone dispersed and led their troops out into battle one after another.

In less than a few days, towering observation towers rose from the ground, extending from the south of the Wancong Mountains to the camp.

Tang Ning was sitting cross-legged in the wooden house when the spirit animal bag around her waist suddenly trembled violently.

He was surprised at first, and then happy. With a slight pat on the spirit beast bag, a white shadow flashed. The little white snake jumped out of the spirit beast bag. Its body swelled in the wind. In the blink of an eye, it was six or seven feet long. It hovered around him, constantly spitting out scarlet letters. He raised his head, as if to please and show off.

The aura of spiritual power exuding from its body has reached the level of a monk in the middle stage of human foundation establishment. There is no doubt that according to the levels of monsters classified by humans, it has successfully been promoted to the second-level mid-level spiritual beast.

Tang Ning was overjoyed. She realized that she had had extremely good fortune in the past year, which she had rarely seen in her life. First, she unexpectedly broke through to the late stage of foundation building without any hindrance, and then she also succeeded in practicing the Five Elements, Universe, and Integration Technique. Now, Little White Snake has advanced to the second level. A mid-level spiritual beast is the icing on the cake for him, like a tiger with wings.

Maybe this is the so-called accumulation! Three things that seemed to happen in one moment actually took decades to build up.

The little white snake fell into a deep sleep as early as two years ago. Tang Ning expected that when it woke up again, it would reach a higher level, because every time it fell asleep was a sign of breaking through to the other side.

But he didn't expect it to wake up from its slumber so quickly in just two years. Therefore, after sensing the movement in the spirit beast bag, he was surprised and happy.

In fact, with Little White Snake's current ability, the seal and ban left by the spirit beast bag is nothing to it, but it has already regarded it as its own home, and every time it comes out, it will "knock on the door" first, Tang Ning replied. Then jump out from inside.

Tang Ning gently stroked its huge head and took out the Strengthening Pill from the storage bag. The little white snake Nobuko swallowed it in one gulp and turned over, showing a humane expression of enjoyment.

Seeing its appearance, Tang Ning smiled, feeling both happy and worried in her heart.

The life span of monster beasts is generally much longer than that of human monks of the same level, so their path to advancement is more difficult. Little White Snake can break through to the second-level mid-level in only thirty years without external force, which is enough It shows how talented he is.

But this guy also consumes a lot of money. When he was still a second-level low-grade creature, he needed a Vitality Pill every day, otherwise he would lose his temper.

For thirty years, more than half a million spiritual stones were spent on its elixir alone.

But now that it has advanced to the second-level mid-level, one Strengthening Pill every day is of course indispensable.

One hundred spiritual stones of the Gubendan is equivalent to 3,000 spiritual stones a month, nearly 40,000 a year, and only ten years at most. My savings will be eaten up by it, and I don’t know what to do then.

It is inevitable that he will have to go back to work, rely on the green spiritual power in his body to catalyze the elixir, and earn some hard-earned money.

But if this happens, practice will be greatly affected.

Tang Ning broke through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and one salary rose to 2,000 spirit stones. However, the cost of elixirs also increased. The "Little Yang Pill" taken by monks in the later stage of Foundation Establishment was sold for as high as 200 spirit stones.

With his small salary, it is difficult to maintain the supply of elixirs.

Over the years, he has increasingly felt that financial resources are the most important thing on the road to spiritual practice.

Without sufficient financial support, no matter how talented you are, you will only sigh sadly.

There is a saying in the world of spiritual practice, it is called, "Practice the Four Treasures, and the Dharma will lead to wealth."

Putting money first shows the important influence of financial resources in the spiritual world.

……………

In the towering hall of the Xushu Mountains, Zheng Jiehuai and a group of Jindan monks, a total of eight people including the two elders of the Corpse Puppet Sect, gathered together. Everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was lively.

"Qian Yizong fled after hearing the news. We can easily capture the western part of the Chu Kingdom. It will be easy to move eastward and capture half of the Chu Kingdom in the future!" One person laughed loudly.

"It all depends on the master's foresight and timely withdrawal from the battlefields of Qi and Wu. The Crescent Moon Sect and the Blood Bone Sect are still fighting against the Qingyang and Shuiyun Sects! If only they knew that it would be so easy for us to capture the Chu Kingdom Half the wall must be extremely envious."

"With the strength of our current troops and the fact that those cultivating families are interested in us, it will only be a matter of time before we take over half of the Chu Kingdom. It is not impossible to even occupy the entire Chu Kingdom."

Everyone discussed with smiles on their faces.

Zheng Jiehuai waved his hand: "Qian Yizong should not be underestimated. Although we fought consecutive battles in Qi and Wu before, we mostly relied on the cooperation with the Blood Bone Sect and Crescent Moon Sect. Now we have withdrawn from there. Blood. The Bone Sect and Crescent Sect cannot travel thousands of miles to support us, so they need to be prepared to fight alone for a long time. "

"Xuanmen's biggest advantage over us is that it has a complete organizational system. Their internal division of labor is clear. For example, alchemy, weapon refining, talismans, and formations all have dedicated departments to teach disciples to study."

"And even our combined sect cannot find a few disciples who can make alchemy. We must learn from them and cultivate such outstanding disciples as soon as possible."

"Today's situation is no different than before. Before, we all worked on our own. We were suppressed by Xuanmen and lived in an ignoble way. We lived in the cracks and couldn't care about the details."

"But now that we have our own territory, these things have become urgent problems to be solved, otherwise we will never be able to surpass Xuanmen."

"I intend to promote these plans as soon as possible and invite all the monks from each family who have skills in alchemy, qi refining, talisman making, and formation research, as well as those casual cultivators who have long been famous in this way. No matter what method is used, It would be best to invite them all and then select disciples from the sect who are interested in this way to learn from them."

"Although each sect has promoted this matter before and organized an elixir alliance. But the intensity is far from enough. From now on, we must vigorously promote this matter. This is an indispensable step for the long-term development of our sect. I don't know, everyone What do you think, junior brother?”

Everyone nodded and said hello.

As soon as he finished speaking, a burly man with a tiger body and a bear waist strode up outside the hall, bowed and saluted: "Master, the news just came that many monks of the Qianyi Sect have formed a formation in Wancong Mountain. Qianyi Sect disciples are stationed throughout the entire Wancong Mountain, which is thousands of miles north and south."

Zheng Jiehai smiled slightly and waved his hand: "I understand."

The man retreated slowly.

"The intention of the Qianyi Sect is very clear. They want to break the boundary with us and rule. They voluntarily gave up the Qinchuan and Longyou lands, and formed a fort in Wancong Mountain to prevent us from entering the Central Plains." Hu Xufan, the original elder of the Puppet Sect, said:

"Hmph, they have a good plan. Now that you and I have merged, we have many soldiers and generals. Those cultivating families are all attached to us. They just want to send us away in just one place. They are too underestimated. ”

A white-faced man said: "Master, since the Qianyi Sect has this intention, I think it is better to send someone to negotiate with them. If they can get out of the northern part of the Chu Kingdom, it is not unreasonable to agree to establish a border with them. We should treat them with courtesy first and then fight with them." It also shows that we are extremely benevolent and righteous. If they are stubborn, it will not be too late for us to take action.”

Zheng Jiehuai nodded and said: "Junior Brother Guan's words are exactly what I want. It is best to be able to fight without bloodshed and not to fight. We are not here to compete with the Qian Yizong, but we just want to have a basis for it. Eat the food you want."

"Our main task now is to develop and strengthen ourselves. If Xuanmen has to kill them all, we have to fight with them with our lives. Junior Brother Guan, I leave this matter to you! Choose a suitable candidate to go to Qianyi Sect to show our sincerity. "

"Okay." The pale-faced man responded.
