Chapter 964

Since we decided to pretend to operate and develop here, of course we have to disguise many aspects!

Not long after the war ended, Li Zhirui took Daqing and others to dive into the seabed to search for nearby spiritual veins and prepare to move them to the main island.

It was naturally impossible to hide such a big movement from other forces, so after they moved into the first spiritual vein, many forces already knew about it within half an hour.

"The Li family actually plans to build a spiritual island in this area?"

The first reaction of all the forces when they heard the news was disbelief and doubt.

After getting the exact news, we are left with doubts, because no matter from any angle, this place is not the best!

In terms of safety, it should be on the edge of the continent, close to the Immortal Dao territory; in terms of spiritual energy, the fjords and sea areas are generally average; in terms of resources, it can be seen from the giant claw crab family occupying this place that the output is not abundant.

In such an ordinary and mediocre place, the Li family actually plans to open a branch here? It is difficult not to arouse the suspicion of other forces.

"Is it possible that the Li family discovered some kind of valuable resource?"

Although this was just everyone's guess, they really got it right!

It's just that there are too few people who know that there is a large spirit stone vein in the Li family island chain, and they are not allowed to go out, so the possibility of leaking the secret is minimized.

Therefore, even if various forces tried in every possible way, they could not get any useful information. The most they got was that the Li family was not strong enough and had little chance of winning if they competed with other forces. It was better to find another way to occupy more spiritual veins here.

This explanation seems to make sense, but few people believe it, because judging from the strength displayed by the Li family, it is definitely not as unbearable as they said.

Among the forces of refining the void, he is not said to be on the first level, but at least he is not out of the ordinary.

But regardless of whether they believed it or not, the Li family only gave this explanation, and they did not find any other evidence, so they could only leave it alone and arrange for a few monks to watch secretly.

"Brother Ninth, there are many monks hidden on both sides of the island chain. Do you want to take action to drive them away?" Xiao Qing said impatiently.

He often goes to the deep sea to explore the movements of the sea clan, and even flies a little further to collect intelligence in the surrounding sea areas, entering and exiting very frequently.

Xiaoqing's keen sense will always detect the monks hiding in the dark, and she can't help but want to drive them away every time.

"Let them be. If you drive them away now, they will come back soon." Li Zhirui said disapprovingly.

They will not leave unless they think that the Li family has not found any treasure.

Xiao Qing's face was full of irritation, but thinking of the rumors spread by the outside world, she couldn't help but curiously inquired: "Brother Ninth, did you really find some treasure? That's why the family decided not to leave?"

"Yes, but I can't tell you the specific situation yet. Remember to keep it confidential!" Li Zhirui did not explain too much.

"I don't know when this war will end." Daqing suddenly sighed. He likes to be quiet and does not like to be active. Although the war has helped his cultivation and realm, there is still a feeling in his heart. Bored.

"It's still early."

Xiao Qing, who is most familiar with the surrounding situation, said casually: "Among the sea areas I have been to, there is no place like ours where we can declare the end of the war and are still in a state where conflicts may break out at any time."

In fact, there are still some monks in the sea area who do not have an advantage in the battle with the sea people and are in a very bad defensive state.

"And it is the immortals of the two camps who decide when this war with a huge impact will end. They have no winner, so how can the war end easily?"

It's not that Daqing doesn't understand these reasons, it's just that he hopes to end the war as soon as possible and allow him to return to a peaceful life.

"It's okay. The fighting in the fjords and seas will be greatly reduced in the future, and we won't be fighting for a long time." Li Zhirui said.

After some small talk, everyone dispersed.

Li Zhirui was thinking about how to mine the spirit stones. If the tribesmen were summoned to mine it, not to mention whether they were willing or not, there would be at least thousands of people who knew about it, and it would be impossible to keep this secret.

At that time, all the forces in Shanyuan Prefecture and even Wanzhu Prefecture in the west will be excited about it and try their best to find out the location of the mineral veins.

If all methods are useless, then we might just attack the Li family directly! Anyway, with so many forces, is it possible that the Li family is still afraid of being a Lianxu family?

If mortals were allowed to mine, they wouldn't have to worry about the news leaking, because the island could be sealed off, and with the vast sea outside, they wouldn't be able to escape at all.

But the mining efficiency of mortals is too low! If you want to improve efficiency, you can only use a large amount of labor.

However, there are only a few million mortals in the territory that the Li family currently controls. With tens of thousands of young and strong labor force deployed, the reproduction rate of mortals may drop to a negative number! This in turn affected the growth of the family's monks.

Moreover, the casualty rate of mining is extremely high, and the Li family does not have so many mortals to waste money.

After thinking about it, puppet might be the best choice!

First of all, there is no such thing as a puppet casualty. Even if it is damaged, it can be replaced with a spiritual object or directly replaced with a new puppet.

Secondly, the risk of leaking information about the use of puppets will also be greatly reduced. For example, a god-transformation monk can control hundreds of low-level puppets, because this repeated control will greatly reduce the pressure on spiritual consciousness.

However, there are also many problems.

For example, making a puppet requires spiritual objects and a puppet master. Especially the mining puppet that Li Zhirui wants may need to be deduced by the puppet master of the Li family. After all, the puppets he knows are all used for fighting. He has never seen this kind of puppet. Functional puppet.

But with the current foundation and strength of the Li family, these are all minor problems.

With this in mind, Li Zhirui summoned the elders, and when they arrived, he asked: "Is there a puppet master among the tribesmen who came to the East China Sea to participate in the war this time?"

"Yes, several puppet masters took the initiative to sign up to join the war in order to obtain the bodies of the Sea Clan." One of the elders thought about it and said immediately.

"What is their cultivation level? What is their attainment in the world of puppets?"

"There are two transformed gods, and the remaining five are all Nascent Souls."

"That's enough. Call them all. I have an idea and see if it can be realized." Li Zhirui ordered.

"yes!"

Several elders contacted the seven puppet masters respectively, but within a moment, five people arrived in a hurry. The remaining two people should be in retreat and did not receive the communication talisman.

Before the five of them saw Li Zhirui with their own eyes, they couldn't believe that the most powerful and senior ancestor in the family would suddenly summon them.

"Li Xianqi, Li Hongshen..."

The five people saluted excitedly and said, "Greetings to Ruizu."

Li Zhirui glanced at them and saw that the two highest-level gods among them were there, and said: "No need to be polite, I called you here this time because I want to ask you something."

"The juniors are scared."

Li Zhirui stopped them from bowing and said: "But this matter is of great importance, so you must make an oath. If you don't want to, just leave."

The five of them are not stupid. How could they give up such a good opportunity to contact Li Zhirui so easily?

If in this process, they get the respect and favor of his old man, then their future path will be much smoother!

Therefore, the five people did not hesitate at all and immediately made an oath.

Only then did Li Zhirui tell them about the discovery of a mineral vein, and expressed his intention to use a puppet to mine, "Can you create such a puppet?"

"Ruizu, don't worry. This kind of simple puppet is very easy. Just make slight modifications to the existing puppet." Li Xianqi said confidently without hesitation.

Li Hongshen on the side also added: "Uncle Xianqi is right, this kind of puppet is not difficult."

Li Zhirui could tell at a glance what they were thinking, which was just to slightly modify the functions of the fourth- and fifth-level puppets.

Such a puppet could indeed mine, and it was even overkill. After all, no matter how hard the spirit stone mine was, it couldn't be compared to Yuanying and the God Transformation monks, but it didn't meet his expectations.

Because the number of mining puppets will not be too small, if fourth-level or fifth-level puppets are used, the cost will be too high, and the Li family may not be able to afford it!

"What I want is a low-level puppet, and the cost must be low enough to be refined in large quantities. It is best to improve the efficiency of mining on this basis. However, there is no time requirement. There is enough time for you to deduce .”

After saying this series of requests, several puppet masters fell into deep thought.

Li Zhirui didn't rush them and waited quietly for their answer.

"Yes! We will do our best to meet your requirements." Li Xianqi and Li Hongshen looked at each other and finally nodded to accept the task.

They knew that if they failed, let alone gaining Li Zhirui's favor, it would be difficult for them to get along in the family in the future. After all, there were several elders watching from the side.

But if they succeed, with Li Zhirui's style of not being stingy about rewards, they will definitely get generous rewards!

"Okay! If you need any spiritual objects in the process of deducing the mining puppet, just find a few elders and they will do their best to meet your needs."

Li Zhirui also generously promised: "As long as you can complete this task, the reward will definitely be great!"

"Thank you Ruizu!"

Li Xianqi and Li Hongshen's eyes lit up, and then they bowed slightly to the elders and said, "I'm going to trouble you elders next."

"You go ahead and do your work."

After the matter was settled, Li Zhirui did not leave the puppet masters here any longer. The elder who stayed for a while only had a few bottles of the best treasure pills in his hand to treat the seriously injured clan members, and left immediately after him.

Li Zhirui turned around and entered the cave and began his daily practice.

Even if he is on the battlefield, unless he is unable to practice, he will never fail to absorb the essence of the sun and moon!

Although Li Zhirui now has several elixirs in his hand that can speed up the cultivation of Void Refining monks, no matter how high the quality of the elixir is, the essence of the sun and moon contained in it is far inferior to the purity emitted by the sun and lunar yin.

If Taiyin and Sun were not too powerful and could only absorb the essence within a certain period of time, there would be no need to supplement it with those treasure pills.

The puppet masters who had received the important task immediately gathered together to discuss how the puppets should be made to meet Li Zhirui's various requirements.

After all, they are now both prosperous and disadvantaged, so they naturally have to work together.

The first thing to do is to select hard and common spiritual objects from the massive first- and second-order spiritual objects...

Two flowers bloom, one on each side.

Several months after the war with the Hai Clan began, the first batch of monks from Dongzhou Immortal Dao who came to support finally joined the battlefield!

The addition of this new force completely tilted the balance of victory on the battlefield in the mortal realm towards the side of the monks. The Sea Clan was defeated one after another and suffered heavy losses.

But the fairyland battlefield above the sky only slightly relieved the pressure on the fairyland of the immortals and pushed back the time they can persist.

"When will the support from other immortal sects arrive?" A human immortal from Dongyuan asked in a deep voice.

According to their previous calculations, the major immortal sects would speed up their support as soon as they received the news. However, it took nearly half a year for the first round of support to arrive!

This made him have to wonder if someone was deliberately causing trouble in order to make the Dongyuan Sect suffer more losses and weaken the strength of the Dongyuan Sect!

Don't look at the fact that the entire Dongzhou Immortal Way agrees and will help in terms of the Dongyuan Sect's promotion and interest exchange, as well as the general purpose of helping the Immortal Way expand its territory and improve the Immortal Way's luck.

But the process was not smooth, and some immortal sects were not very happy to start this war.

After all, by expanding the territory of Immortal Dao to the East China Sea, they will have no other benefits except enjoying the improvement of luck with the entire Immortal Dao!

On the contrary, Dongyuan Sect and other five major coastal immortal sects are the biggest and most direct beneficiaries.

Whether it is out of jealousy, jealousy, conflicts with the five major sects, or other reasons, they do not want to see the strength of the five coastal sects increase significantly.

So they couldn't wait for support for a long time, so it's no wonder that the human immortal thought of this.

"Fellow Daoist Xingxi, you suddenly launched a war. Many immortal sects are not fully prepared, so the speed will naturally be slower. Please be patient and patient. Isn't the current situation also very good?" A tall man with a wide body and a fat face said The immortal with a smile on her face comforted her softly.

Although they were at a disadvantage, the fairyland did not fall.

As for the mortal realm disciples? As long as they are not their disciples, disciples, descendants, or blood descendants, they will not feel bad no matter how many people die, even the Tribulation Crossing monks who are only one step away from the fairyland.

Even if all the monks in the mortal realm are dead, as long as they are still there, they can not only ensure the continuity of their family's inheritance, but also grow at a rapid rate.

"So, Taoist Brother Jiuxiao knows when the other Taoist friends will arrive?" Xingxi looked at the fat immortal.

"Nine Dao Sect is the closest celestial sect to the East China Sea except for other forces. How can it come into contact with other forces?" Jiu Xiao's expression did not change at all because of his questioning. (End of chapter)
