Chapter 495 Recruitment

After making up his mind, Ye Changsheng did not hesitate any longer. He directly paid the information fee of Tianji Pavilion, took Li Yannian's address, and rushed to the cave on the west side of Shengfeng City.

Li Yannian's residence is quite secluded, surrounded by lush spiritual plant gardens, and you can see the gurgling spiritual springs flowing in the distance, giving people a sense of tranquility and comfort.

Ye Changsheng secretly admired that he could have such an independent cave in the fifth-level fairy city, and the environment was so elegant, which showed that Li Yannian's status in this city was not low.

Arriving outside the cave, Ye Changsheng was not anxious, and first used the communication paper talisman to express his purpose.

Not long after, a purple mansion cultivator who looked about 40 or 50 years old came out. Judging from his dress, he seemed to be Li Yannian's butler.

The other party was neither humble nor arrogant, and asked: "Senior, I wonder why you are visiting my master?"

"Of course I have something important to ask for."

Ye Changsheng smiled and nodded, without saying much, but took out an exquisite jade box and handed it to the housekeeper, "Please tell Master Li that this is a small gift from me." The housekeeper took the jade box half-believing and half-doubting, opened it and took a breath of cold air, blurting out: "Shenyue Fruit?"

Although Shenyue Fruit can only provide a 10% chance for Purple Mansion cultivators to advance to the Dao Court Realm, even a 10% probability is extremely rare.

For Purple Mansion cultivators, if they pass this bottleneck, they can step into the Dao Court, and their cultivation is now different from the past.

Such a rare treasure, I am afraid that only the top families or heavyweight forces are willing to take it out. The housekeeper immediately looked up to Ye Changsheng in his heart, bowed and said: "Senior, what a big hand, if the master knows, he will be happy, I will report it now."

Not long after, the housekeeper hurried back and invited Ye Changsheng in.

As soon as you enter the cave, the first thing that comes into view is a long corridor with several pots of extremely elegantly trimmed spiritual plants placed in the middle, and a faint floral scent lingering in the air.

Going further in, there is a spacious reception hall.

There sat a thin middle-aged man in a green robe, with a fair face and a calm look in his eyes.

This man is Li Yannian, a fourth-level spiritual architect.

"Fellow Daoist Ye is so polite that he gave me the Divine Moon Fruit. I am a little flattered." Li Yannian stood up and clasped his fists to Ye Changsheng. Although his words were humble, there was a hint of joy in his eyes.

Ye Changsheng calmly returned the gift, but said: "Master Li, what are you talking about? You are a top spiritual architect that I have admired for a long time. In my opinion, this gift is still a bit shabby. If I hadn't been in a hurry to visit today, I should have prepared more carefully."

Li Yannian smiled and shook his head, motioning Ye Changsheng to sit down, and also told the housekeeper to serve spiritual tea. When the fragrance of tea lingered in the hall, Li Yannian took a sip and said: "Fellow Daoist Ye, you must not come here just to see me?"

Ye Changsheng naturally stopped beating around the bush and fully expressed his idea and needs for building a fairy city on the fourth-level spiritual vein plain.

He emphasized: "My Ye family is now setting up defenses and clearing monsters on the plains, waiting for you, Master Li, to help me improve the overall city planning and formation layout. When it is completed, it will definitely be a fourth-level top-grade fairy city."

After listening, Li Yannian did not nod immediately, but put down the teacup solemnly and spoke slowly: "Fellow Daoist Ye, forgive me for being frank, but you may have heard about the recent expansion of the Dayuan Xiuxian Alliance in the Monster Forest. After they issued a recruitment order, many family forces asked me to help preside over the construction of the fourth-level fairy city, or to rebuild or expand it. I already have commissions from more than a dozen forces. According to the schedule, if I accept your commission now, I will have to wait at least ten years. After all, building a city is not a matter of a day or a night, and each fourth-level city takes a lot of my effort."

More than a decade?

This may not be too long for a cultivator, but it is far from acceptable to Ye Changsheng.

He knew that the opportunity to build a city was fleeting. If he kept delaying, he would miss a great opportunity when those potential competitors had built the city or divided up all the surrounding resources.

Ye Changsheng frowned slightly, but quickly regained his composure. He smiled, took out another jade box from the storage bag, handed it to Li Yannian, and said calmly: "Master Li, take a look at this first, and it's not too late to decide the time."

Li Yannian's eyebrows moved slightly, and he carefully reached out to open the jade box.

In an instant, a magical aura came to his face, making his originally solemn face instantly shocked: "Purple Cloud Spirit Peach?!"

He almost exclaimed.

This is a fourth-level top-level spiritual fruit. It is rumored that it only grows in a very small number of secret realms with extremely rich spiritual power. If a Dao Court cultivator can absorb and refine it, there is a 10% chance of breaking through to the Jade Tree Realm.

For Li Yannian, a ninth-level cultivator of the Dao Court, this means a new and extremely precious promotion channel.

Li Yannian stared at the purple peach for a long time before he came back to his senses.

Ye Changsheng drank tea quietly without saying a word.

After a while, Li Yannian let out a long breath and gently closed the jade box, with obvious joy on his face.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, this matter... I can move it forward. Among the tasks I have taken on, there are still several projects that are still in the planning stage and have not actually started yet. If I communicate with them, I can re-adjust the priorities. Level. I think..." He glanced at Ye Changsheng, pretending to be thinking, "I can be the third in line to build your city. It will take three years, and I will definitely go to your place in person. , plan everything for your fairy city."

"Three years? It's much better than I originally thought."

Ye Changsheng smiled after hearing this. He bowed deeply to Li Yannian and said, "Thank you, Master Li, for your understanding. From now on, when the city is completed, you will be the most distinguished guest of my Ye family."

Li Yannian smiled heartily and seemed quite relaxed: "Building a city is not an easy task, especially a fourth-level high-grade fairy city, and you have to pay attention to everything. In the past three years, you'd better reserve some hard second-level spiritual ore, and use Used to lay out formations and construct city foundations. Such spiritual minerals can not only withstand the engraving of magic formations, but will also be of great benefit to the future reinforcement and expansion of the city."

Ye Changsheng nodded repeatedly, and handed Li Yannian detailed information such as the topographic map of his plain, the spiritual vein distribution map, etc. in the form of jade slips, while adding some key points.

"There is one fourth-order high-grade spiritual vein here, six third-order low-grade spiritual veins, and several second-order spiritual veins scattered all over the place. The terrain is quite favorable. However, there will be monster beasts above third-order appearing nearby from time to time, and there will be more or less people migrating in the future. If you have any needs or suggestions, please feel free to ask. As long as it can make the fairy city more stable and longer, I will invest more resources."
