Chapter 521 Quyang Island
The three of them rushed to the island and found that Jia Mengzhen, Li Yulin and others had blocked the island. They questioned everyone on the island in detail.
Seeing Jia Mengzhen, Zhang Zhixuan immediately said: "Mengzhen, how did you find this mineral vein?"
Jia Mengzhen said: "It's a long story. This small island is called Quyang Island. There are relatively few cultivators on the island, and they are basically all from the same family. The Qu family does not even have a foundation-building cultivator, but only more than ten Qi training cultivators. They have been living and multiplying on this island for more than three hundred years. They have discovered this mineral vein for more than a hundred years, but unfortunately because of their low strength, they have never dared to mine it in a big way. They can only secretly dig out a little and sell it in the nearby mobile market.
The last time the Yanxia League was defeated, Xie Yanxia gave up more than ten islands, including Quyang Island. After a while, we sent two cultivators to garrison on Quyang Island, and found that the Qu family secretly sent people to the island, doing something sneaky. When we caught the Qu family, we found the Kongming Stone mineral vein from their mouths. I knew it was a serious matter, so I immediately notified the mountain gate."
Listen After hearing Jia Mengzhen's words, Zhang Zhixuan frowned and said, "So it's hard to keep the secret?"
Jia Mengzhen said, "I'm afraid so. The Qu family monks all followed Xie Yanxia to withdraw. Once their people can't go back, I'm afraid they will tell the Yanxia League about the situation of the mine vein in order to win credit."
"How big is the scale of the mine vein? Have you sent someone to explore it?"
Jia Mengzhen said, "There are no array masters on our two treasure ships, and we don't know how to explore the earth vein. The details of this mine vein are not clear. However, the area of this island is not large, and the estimated reserves of the mine vein will not be too large."
Zhang Zhixuan nodded and said seriously, "Qingchan is a high-level array master. We will explore the details of the mine vein in detail. This place is far away from Dafang Island. If Xie Yanxia comes to fight for it, I'm afraid it will be difficult to defend it."
Zhang Zhixuan thought well. This place is about 40,000 miles away from Dafang Island. Not only do they not have the Qingxuan Sect's spiritual jade book to communicate with each other, but they also don't have a teleportation array for rapid reinforcement.
If you want to hold on to this island, you must at least be able to resist Xie Yanxia for two or three days and wait for the reinforcements from Dafang Island. The only way is to cultivate high-level spiritual veins, set up powerful defensive formations, and send enough monks to take charge.
To do this, at least hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones are needed, and twenty foundation-building monks and hundreds of Qi training monks are stationed there, and even Qingchan himself is needed to take charge.
With the financial resources of Dafang Island, it is difficult to cultivate a fifth-level spiritual vein on Quyang Island. Practicing in a low-level spiritual vein will delay Qingchan's practice speed and affect her path.
It is precisely because of this dilemma that Zhang Zhixuan hesitated and didn't know whether he should go all out to fight.
With Qingchan, a powerful formation master, the mineral veins on the island can be easily explored.
Although Quyang Island is small, this mineral vein is very deep. According to Qingchan's estimate, the reserves are not smaller than that of Song State, and the value exceeds 10 million spiritual stones. It is indeed worth investing a lot of resources to fight for it.
Zhang Zhixuan's premonition was indeed correct. The Yanxia League was like a vulture that saw blood. It soon received the news. A large fleet of treasure ships also appeared in the nearby waters, as if it was going to provoke a war again.
After a period of preparation, many buildings have been built on Quyang Island, and the most magnificent one is the meeting hall on the island.
Zhang Zhixuan and his three people sat at the top, and there were more than a dozen foundation-building cultivators standing below. Seeing that everyone looked solemn, Zhang Zhixuan turned his head and asked Qingchan: "How was your last investigation?"
"In order to compete for the mineral vein, the Yanxia League almost came out in full force and surrounded Quyang Island. Not only did Xie Yanxia come in person, but even the two fourth-level treasure ships of the Yanxia League also appeared nearby. It has become impossible for us to retreat unscathed."
The combat power of a fourth-level inferior treasure ship is equivalent to the ninth level of the Purple Mansion. The Yanxia League came in full force. Two fourth-level inferior treasure ships plus seven Purple Mansion cultivators are equivalent to four ninth-level Purple Mansions. The combat power on the sea has exceeded our side.
However, the treasure ship cannot land. If the battlefield is placed on the island, the advantage of the Yanxia League will be very small.
Moreover, Qingchan has the Shenxing Boat, which can easily lead high-level cultivators to break through. At that time, it will only lose two third-level high-quality treasure ships and some Qi training period cultivators, which will not be a setback for Dafang Island.
The core spiritual vein of the Yanxia League is farther away from Quyang Island. Once the island falls into the hands of Xie Yanxia, it will encounter the same trouble as Zhang Zhixuan. It will be difficult to defend the island unless Xie Yanxia comes to this remote place to garrison.
"It seems that we can only talk to the Yanxia League about cooperating in the development of this mineral vein. I don't know if Xie Yanxia is willing to listen." Zhang Zhixuan sighed.
"According to rumors, Xie Yanxia is a very shrewd person. She fled immediately when she saw that the situation was not good in the last fight. She is not only decisive, but also a person who can take it or leave it. Since you want to negotiate with him, I will first feel out his bottom line and see what he is planning?"
Qingchan left the meeting room in an instant with her escape light. Her speed was like a flash of lightning, and she easily flew to the vicinity of the fourth-level inferior treasure ship.
A fourth-level inferior treasure ship is far from being a match for Qingchan. Seeing her flying over, it immediately sent a sound transmission talisman. The two treasure ships instantly approached each other, and Xie Yanxia turned into a colorful light and appeared near Qingchan almost at the same time.
Qingchan did not take action directly. After Xie Yanxia appeared on the battlefield, he immediately sent a letter.
Xie Yanxia cast a flash of inspiration and made sure that there was nothing wrong with the letter before receiving it. He glanced at it casually, frowned and said: "You seem to be very confident, and you are only willing to sign a ten-year contract. It seems that after ten years you will We are sure to defeat the Yanxia Alliance. Since there is no lasting peace, why should I give you ten years to increase your strength?"
Qingchan chuckled and said: "Even if a war breaks out, you will not be able to stop us. We only need to shrink our power back to Dafang Island, and the Yanxia Alliance will be powerless. But ten years later, when my husband-in-law forms a golden elixir, the Yanxia Alliance will If you form an irresolvable hatred with us, don’t blame us for being ruthless and ruthless, leaving you with no way to go to heaven and no door to earth.”
Xie Yanxia smiled contemptuously and said: "It's a pity that we have become enemies now. At least in the past ten years, we can still have the upper hand and plunder some of the benefits. When Zhang Daoyou forms an elixir, the worst we can do is give up the nearby foundation. As long as I, Xie Yanxia, am here, the treasure ship With the fleet here, I can establish myself wherever I go, why should I give up all the benefits to you?”
Through the last fight, Xie Yanxia already knew that Zhang Zhixuan was indeed not far away from forming a pill, otherwise he would not have been able to easily defeat the four Zifu monks.
Seeing that Dafang Island was only willing to sign a ten-year contract, Xie Yanxia knew that once the contract was signed, he would only be able to strive for ten years of peace, which was still far from what he wanted. Even though he knew in his heart that in the long run, Dafang Island's The stamina should far exceed that of the Yanxia League.
