Chapter 500 Assignment of tasks

Ye Changsheng nodded: "Okay. Daoyou Zhang leads the weapon refiners to be responsible for the refining of the magic weapon, and Daoyou Wang leads the formation masters to refining and arrange the formation base. Both parties must cooperate closely to ensure that the components can fit perfectly."

The named Daoist Wang was a formation master dressed as a middle-aged scribe. He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Ye is thoughtful. However, this project is huge and it will probably take a long time."

"Time is not an issue, quality is important. Let's start taking action!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone nodded in agreement, and then under the command of Ye Shengyu and other commanders, they methodically began to select materials that suited their faction or needs, or simply discussed how to cooperate.

The third-level weapon refiners and third-level array mages are particularly busy. Behind them are dozens of second-level weapon refiners and a hundred second-level array mages. These low-level personnel are responsible for assisting, recording, and executing.

At the same time, at the other end, teams of Ji-building Nu Xiu led by Zifu Keqing were also ready to go.

Ye Changsheng already had a considerable number of guests from the Purple Mansion under his command. These people were not only of good cultivation, but also had certain commanding abilities.

Now, each Zifu commander is equipped with twenty foundation-building slave cultivators, and they begin to dig the foundation of the fairy city within a radius of a hundred miles within the fourth-level spiritual vein method.

"Each of your teams will first survey the terrain in the designated area, and then carry out deep excavation according to the range marked on the drawing. Be sure to ensure the straightness and flatness of the tunnel." A Zifu commander loudly ordered, "Dig it out Don't throw away the earth, stone, and spiritual sand, keep it for later use, don't blame me for being ruthless if you dare to be lazy or fool around!"

These Ji Nu cultivators may have different origins, but under the iron discipline, no one dares to neglect them.

In addition, Ye Changsheng has always been kind and powerful, as long as he completes the task, the treatment will not be bad; if he disobeys the rules, the punishment will not be lenient.

Therefore, this huge excavation team acted very efficiently. In just one day, they had dug out several sizable foundation pits around the camp for subsequent use of city walls, pavilions or formation bases.

Ye Changsheng personally inspected various construction sites and smiled happily when he saw that everyone was full of energy.

He knew that building a fourth-level fairy city would not happen overnight, and the most critical thing right now was to lay the foundation stone firmly.

However, just as the preliminary construction was in full swing, another problem also emerged - the spiritual mine for making the second-level city wall bricks has never been found.

Ye Changsheng needs a large amount of hard-quality ore that can channel spiritual power, otherwise no matter how magnificent the city wall is, it will be nothing more than an empty frame, unable to withstand the impact of high-level monsters.

As early as a month ago, Ye Changsheng arranged for the third-level ore prospector Xue Qiushan to arrive at the Tianyuan Mountains first. He was originally expected to find a suitable second-level spiritual mine within a radius of 500 miles, but the result was disappointing.

Although Xue Qiushan was experienced, he shook his head: "Although there are many spiritual ores in these mountains, most of them are low-level ores, or their properties are not suitable for building city walls. They are either too brittle or contain impurities, making it difficult to form formations. We really need to find them. For suitable large-scale mineral veins, we need to expand the search scope.”

After receiving the news, Ye Changsheng was also very anxious, but he was not discouraged.

So, when he returned to the camp in person, he immediately met up with Xue Qiu Shan and made a decision: to continue to expand the search area and extend it hundreds of miles away. If necessary, he could even search a thousand miles away, as long as he could find a suitable spiritual mine. , we must not let it go.

"Senior, don't worry, I will try my best to investigate and won't miss any clues!"

Xue Qiushan assured with clasped fists.

In his opinion, the Tianyuan Mountains are extremely vast. The deeper you go, the more complex the terrain becomes, and the distribution of spiritual veins becomes more irregular. Perhaps it is a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers are hidden.

As a result, a large-scale mining operation began immediately.

Xue Qiushan carried various exploration instruments and jade slips and sneaked into the dangerous mountains and valleys separately.

They have to face attacks from poisonous insects and beasts from time to time. In some places, there is miasma and the environment is quite harsh.

Ye Changsheng was worried about his safety, so he specially sent several powerful guests from the Zifu to accompany him as guards, and also gave him extra amulets and detoxifying pills.

Three long months have passed.

Just when everyone was about to lose their patience, Xue Qiushan returned to the camp with the good news and reported to Ye Changsheng with joy: "Senior Ye, we found it! Under a black cliff 1100 miles away from here , a whole vein of black ink stone was discovered that stretches for hundreds of miles! Judging from the initial excavated samples, this black ink stone is extremely hard and has excellent spiritual power transmission effect. It is most suitable for the walls and walls of our fairy city! Protective array!"

As soon as these words came out, all the guest ministers, weapon refiners and formation masters of the Zifu who were discussing the progress of the construction in the big tent all cheered.

Many people showed happy smiles. After all, if there is a lack of suitable city wall materials, all plans will be like castles in the air.

Ye Changsheng's heart finally fell to the ground, and he nodded repeatedly: "Okay! God really pays off his hard work."

Immediately announced a reward of 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones to Xue Qiushan, and praised him for making the first contribution to the construction of this fairy city.

Xue Qiushan held the spirit stone, his cheeks flushed with excitement: "Thank you, senior, for your love! I will continue to assist senior, thoroughly explore this vein, and strive to make the entire fairy city construction process smooth."

"Haha, okay! Xue Qiushan, I will leave this matter to you with full responsibility."

Ye Changsheng was delighted and turned to the people around him and said, "Since the vein has been discovered, we must quickly organize mining. The amount we need is huge, and we must transport enough black inkstone back to the camp as soon as possible to avoid delaying other processes.

Shengyu, you immediately dispatch 1,500 foundation-building slaves to assist Xue Qiushan in mining, and send more than a dozen purple mansion guests to supervise and command."

"Yes, father."

Ye Shengyu made arrangements without saying a word, "The remaining 500 foundation-building slaves will continue to be responsible for the excavation of the foundation of the fairy city, so that both sides can move forward in parallel."

In just a few days, the camp sent out another mighty team and set off on the journey to Black Cliff Ridge.

Xue Qiushan and several formation masters who were good at setting up temporary camps walked at the front of the team, responsible for exploring the route.

Followed by a large number of purple mansion guests and foundation-building slaves, carrying simple mining magic weapons and a large amount of life supplies, preparing to camp for long-term mining.

Soon, the mining team set up camp at Black Cliff Ridge, first set up a circle of protection with various formation flags and prohibitions to isolate from the wild beasts and poisonous insects outside, and then began large-scale mining.

From time to time, the rumbling sound of magic weapons and the shouting of monks could be heard in the valley. Occasionally, someone could be seen riding a flying sword, cutting the huge black inkstone into giant blocks of five meters wide, ten meters long, and five meters thick, and then transporting them back to the camp using a third-grade high-quality ark.
