Chapter 435: Post-War Review

After killing Yang Wangyuan, Patriarch Jin spent three days to open his storage bag. There were four fifth-level magic tools in Yang Wangyuan's storage bag. Including the three fifth-level magic tools seized, there were seven fifth-level magic tools obtained in this battle. In addition, there were three fifth-level spiritual talismans. Even the precious methods of Hongshan Sect's practice were all collected in the storage bag.

It can be said that most of the foundation of the ancestors of Hongshan Sect is on him.

However, he is alone after all. Even if he has more magic tools, he can only use three. It is impossible to stop the siege of the crowd. These things can only benefit the people of Qingxuan Sect.

In order to kill this person, Patriarch Jin consumed a fifth-level low-grade spiritual talisman, Hu Peiyu also consumed a fifth-level middle-grade spiritual talisman, and lost a fifth-level middle-grade defensive magic tool.

Fifth-level middle-grade defensive magic tools are also very precious to Jindan period cultivators. None of the magic tools seized from Yang Wangyuan can compare with the Xuanjing Shield.

After killing Yang Wangyuan, the troubles of Qingxuan and Huanshui were finally eliminated, and the war that lasted for half a year finally ended.

The most powerful Qingxuan and Huanshui of Yu State joined forces to destroy the weak Hongshan and Nanlu Sects. Among them, the territory of Hongshan Sect belongs to Qingxuan Sect, and the territory of Nanlu Pavilion belongs to Huanshui Sect.

Although the territory of Hongshan Sect is large, it is a pity that after more than 80 years of war and repeated population migration, it is no longer as rich and prosperous as the territory of Nanlu Pavilion.

Not only did the territory of Hongshan Sect not have the fifth-level spiritual veins, but even the spiritual medicine garden on the mountain was plundered by the monks of Qingxuan Sect a century ago. Compared with Huanshui Sect's complete acceptance of the foundation of Nanlu Pavilion, the benefits obtained by Qingxuan Sect in this battle were insignificant.

However, even so, this battle was still a crucial one for Qingxuan Sect. After defeating Hongshan Sect, Qingxuan Sect not only gained a population of more than 10 million in four counties, but also occupied a spiritual stone mine, two fourth-level spiritual veins, dozens of third-level spiritual veins, and more than 30 more foundation-building cultivators under the control of the sect, including the fence-sitters who surrendered.

Although the spiritual veins of Taihong Mountain were blown up, the grade was still as high as the fourth-level upper grade. In addition to the two fifth-level spiritual veins, the spiritual energy of Taihong Mountain and Zhongxuan Mountain in Qingxuan Sect was the most abundant. Even the Black Mountain controlled by the Zhang family's three purple mansions was not as conducive to cultivation as Taihong Mountain in terms of conditions.

When the Qingxuan Sect cultivators returned in large numbers, this mountain had been assigned to Zhu Wuya for cultivation by Ancestor Jin. The spiritual medicine garden on the mountain belonged to the sect, and people had begun to sow the spiritual grass seeds again and a third-level spiritual plant husband was assigned to be responsible for farming.

However, it will take at least several decades for this spiritual medicine garden to be effective. It will take thousands of years of hard work to grow the golden mushroom that can be used to refine the foundation-building pill.

In addition, there are many third-level spiritual veins near Taihong Mountain. The cultivators of Hongshan Sect alone have cultivated dozens of them. The foundation-building cultivators of Hongshan Sect have been killed, and these spiritual veins have been emptied. This batch of spiritual veins has also been allocated to meritorious people. The clansmen of the foundation-building cultivators who died in this battle were given a third-level spiritual vein for cultivation.

In order to protect these families that have lost their pillars, Qingxuan Sect also dispatched special foundation-building cultivators to patrol to prevent foreign cultivators from invading and occupying the magpie's nest.

In addition, the foundation-building families that followed the Qingxuan Sect cultivators to retreat to Jiangkou County that year, because they stood in the right team this time, not only did they take back the original mountain gate, but they were also given a batch of rich property.

And the foundation they established in Jiangkou County was not taken back by Qingxuan Sect. As long as they digest the gains this time, the strength of these families who stood in the right team will also increase greatly.

As for the families that failed to take sides, if they did not have the lives of Qingxuan Sect cultivators in their hands, they could still continue to occupy their own sacred mountains. If the families were the first to stand out, they would definitely be held accountable by Qingxuan Sect after the war. At the very least, they would become independent cultivators, and at the worst, their families would be destroyed and their cultivators would have to pay with their lives.

Although there would not be another war, the four counties of Hongshan Sect would still be in chaos for a while. Zhu Wuya was seriously injured and would definitely need a long time to recuperate after the war. In order to stabilize the situation, the sect also left a purple mansion late-stage cultivator Zhou Zijian on Taihong Mountain to take charge.

After the war, the sect repaired the spiritual veins of Taihong Mountain while building a market at the foot of the mountain. The scale of this market was larger than that of Yuntai Mountain. A total of 60 large shops and 120 small shops were built. The sect was ready to build it into the core of the four northern counties.

Half of the property rights of these shops belonged to the sect, and the remaining half was distributed to those who had made contributions in this battle. Zhu Wuya obtained the ownership of ten large shops. The three purple mansions of the Zhang family also obtained the ownership of ten large shops and twenty small shops because of their outstanding military exploits and contributions far exceeding those of other purple mansions.

Even the shops in the Yuntaishan market, this time the sect also granted eight shops to the Zhang family to make up an integer.

By now, the Zhang family has a large number of industries in the four northern counties, and they are in urgent need of a cultivator with a high level of cultivation to take charge. After discussing with Zhang Zhixuan and the other two, they decided to let Sihong take charge of the four northern counties and practice in Taihong Mountain.

Taihong Mountain has sufficient spiritual energy, and his cultivation has reached the ninth level of foundation building. It is easier to break through the bottleneck by practicing in Taihong Mountain.

As for Yuntai Mountain, most of the sect's cultivators will be transferred back to Qingyang Mountain. Even the Jin Laozu and his wife are ready to return to Qingyang Mountain to practice immediately, and this fourth-level spiritual vein will be handed over to Han Wangpeng.

Because the Chaoyin Mountain Spirit Stone Mine is located in the heart of the sect and its safety is guaranteed, and the sect occupies too many spiritual veins, there is no need for Purple Mansion Stage cultivators to be stationed here. Even the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators have been reduced by half and sent to places like the Taihong Mountain and Dongyang Mountain Spirit Stone Mine.

In the midst of this busyness, Zhang Zhixuan and others returned to Qingyang Mountain and began to divide up the most lucrative part of the spoils.

Only a few high-level members of the sect were eligible to participate in the division of these most precious spoils. In addition to the three Jindan ancestors, there were only Zhang's San Zifu and You Nianwei and Luo Ziyan. As for Zhu Wuya and Zhou Zijian, who participated in the war, they did not choose these high-level spiritual objects, but exchanged for a large number of low-level resources to leave to their descendants.

First of all, there are the martial arts books. Over the past thousands of years, Hongshan Sect has collected thirteen martial arts that can be cultivated to the Jindan stage, and two of these thirteen martial arts can be cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage. Because they are located in the same region, eight of these thirteen martial arts overlap with the Qingxuan Sect's martial arts, and one of the two Nascent Soul stage martial arts also overlaps.

This batch of martial arts books still has a strong reference role for Zhang Zhixuan to create the next step of martial arts.

Patriarch Jin first looked at Zhang Zhixuan and said, "I have discussed with Junior Sisters Lu and Hu about the skills seized this time, and you can choose three jade slips to leave for the Zhang family to inherit. You can only choose one skill for the Nascent Soul stage. What do you think?"

"I have no objection."

Although Zhang Zhixuan and his men made great contributions in this battle, killing six Purple Mansion cultivators, and playing a role in the battle with Shen Chenzhou and Yang Wangyuan, they were the best among the Purple Mansion cultivators.

But without the support of the sect, without the help of several Golden Core stage ancestors, and without Patriarch Jin's judgment of the situation and the establishment of an alliance with the Huanshui Sect, they could not get rid of Yang Wangyuan, destroy the Hongshan Sect, and it was impossible to seize so many spoils.
