Chapter 1174: Strength in Numbers

Xue Ying seemed to understand Zhang Jun's thoughts and said with a smile: "You must know that this is the third killing formation in ancient times. This killing formation has reached the ninth level. It can kill Da Luo and injure Hunyuan. It is not a monk at your level. It’s understandable. Even I can only teach you the first five levels of the killing formation. Only after my cultivation level is restored can I be qualified to teach you.”

Zhang Jun immediately said: "Okay, the first four levels of the killing formation are enough." According to his speculation, the power of the first four levels of the killing formation is enough for him to still play a major role after achieving the Da Luo status. The next four levels will be discussed later, because even if you learn it now, you won't be able to use it, so there is no rush.

So the Blood Infant taught Zhang Jun the third killing formation on the first four levels with his spiritual thoughts. The more Zhang Jun listened, the more shocked and incredible the expression on his face became. After he finished learning the first four levels of mental techniques, he murmured: "There are such terrifying killing formations in the world! I wonder how terrifying the first and second killing formations in ancient times must be!"

The blood baby smiled "hehe" and said: "Ancient history is far more vast and glorious than you imagine, and it cannot be described in words. The third killing formation in ancient times is nothing. There are more thrilling and incredible secrets than this, but you don't know That’s all.”

Zhang Jun shrugged and said: "This third ancient killing formation is the first secret you gave me. I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future." As he spoke, he thought to himself that this blood baby really knows things that others don't know. From now on, you should pay more attention to him and slowly reveal the secrets he knows. The third ancient killing formation alone gave him an extremely amazing feeling, and he didn't know how many surprising memories he still held in his chest.

After the blood baby left, Zhang Jun met with everyone, and when he talked about the thrilling experience before, everyone sighed with emotion. Zong Yuandao: "Dad, the cultivation of those of us has been suppressed, so we must do it as soon as possible. Otherwise, once we encounter today's situation, what ability do we have to face it?"

Zhang Jun waved his hand and said: "No hurry, no rush, once Xiaoqiang successfully merges the dragon's nest and the mother's nest, we will have a super powerful weapon. With it, you don't need to take action if you are in danger." The most important thing right now is to find the spiritual objects for refining and the subsequent cultivation resources. As for whether you advance one day earlier or later, what difference does it make? It’s impossible to build a house too high.”

Everyone naturally understood that what Zhang Jun said was the truth, and they nodded without any objection. Zhang Jun also told everyone about his previous experience. When they heard that he had collected the Yin-Yang Cauldron, an important weapon in Daxia, everyone was shocked and changed their minds. The Emperor of Chaos said: "Human Emperor, you have taken away Emperor Xia's important treasure. Once he becomes angry, I am afraid that he will immediately take action against our Central Federation. In my opinion, it is better to return this tripod as soon as possible to avoid future troubles."

The Five Thunder Emperor also said: "What Chaos said is true. Emperor Xia's strength is unfathomable. He is probably not much worse than the Great Luo Heavenly Lord. He also controls tens of thousands of princes and has as many strong men as his subordinates. The color of the sky and the earth changes in anger. It’s not something we can mess with right now.”

Zhang Jun thought for a while and said: "The eldest prince wants to kill me, and I took away his Yin Yang Cauldron. He will never dare to report it to Emperor Xia. Don't rush now, let this matter go later. If Emperor Xia really asks for Yin Yang Ding, just return it to him."

But without the threat from the eldest prince's Tianzhou army, Zhang Jun was no longer anxious and slowly waited for the integration of the two nests. At the same time, he is also further improving the intelligent exercises for all federal citizens to practice. This set of smart exercises has been released for a long time and has achieved excellent results. Intelligent exercises are implemented based on Xiaoqiang's supercomputer, which can teach different cultivation methods according to different people's physiques in order to achieve the best and most efficient cultivation results.

The physical fitness of the people throughout the federation has been greatly improved as a result, and more and more people are awakening. Once upon a time, high-level awakened people were great people. But nowadays, there are many high-level awakened people, and they are already very ordinary monks.

Promoted by many factors, the cultivation speed of federation members has increased by leaps and bounds. At present, the vast majority of people have reached the level of holding pills. The Bao Dan figure who was once known as the master of martial arts in the Central Kingdom has now become the lowest level monk among the common people, and is nothing at all. Not to mention Baodan, there are also many return-to-truth cultivators above Baodan, which now account for nearly one-third of the entire population of the Central Federation.

There are nearly one-thirtieth Daojun-level monks above; the higher level is the Emperor-level monks, and the current number is up to one million. Moreover, if Zhang Jun hadn't suppressed their cultivation, a large number of people would have broken through to the vassal level and become quasi-Da Luo masters.

Seeing the speed of everyone's cultivation, Zhang Jun was very pleased, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Thinking back to the beginning, the level of cultivation at the quasi-Da Luo level was so unattainable for him. But nowadays, Quasi Daluo is nothing, he is just equivalent to the pill-holding master he was when he first started practicing.

Today's general environment has changed, and the competition among all races is simply the natural law of the weak and the strong. Therefore, he must make every effort to improve the overall strength of the Central Federation. Although he has a powerful Tianshu, which contains super powerful combat powers such as light armor, dragon soul knights, and Juntian warriors. But he always believed that the citizens of the Central Federation were the hope for the future of mankind.

While working hard to improve everyone's strength, Zhang Jun is also increasing his efforts to encourage people to have more children. Today's people, regardless of their cultivation, are at least possessing elixirs and have very strong fertility. Moreover, the babies produced have very good qualifications. Many babies can hold pills within one or two years after they are born. Although it is not as good as Zong Yuan's innate holding pill back then, it is still very surprising.

In the Central Federation, it is stipulated that the family that gives birth to the first child will receive an additional 100 elixirs; if the second child is born, it will receive 1,000 elixirs; if the third child is born, it will receive 10 elixirs. And so on, the more children you give birth to, the more rewards you will get from the Federation.

Encouraged by this great plot, the fertility rate in the Central Federation has greatly increased. On average, each couple gives birth to 4.5 children. And the number of women of childbearing age has also greatly increased. The reason is very simple. After ordinary people practice cultivation, their childbearing period has been extended. Female cultivators from 18 to 68 years old can basically give birth. All this has doubled the population of the Central Federation in a short period of time. According to this trend, it will not take many years for the population of the Federation to exceed 10 billion, and it will grow exponentially.

The reason why Zhang Jun did this is that the human population is too small compared with other races. Some of the surrounding large races have a population of tens of billions or even hundreds of billions. A behemoth like Daxia has trillions of people, which the Central Federation cannot compare with.

In his opinion, the larger the population, the greater the potential of the Central Federation. Things are different now. The Central Kingdom used to have a small land area and a large population. There was even a period of time when citizens were restricted from having children. But now the Central Federation has vast land and abundant resources. It is not afraid of having too many people, but too few people. The more people there are, the more land and resources they can obtain. The two are directly proportional.

However, when Zhang Jun was guarding the Federation, the eldest prince and his teacher had already returned to the prince's mansion. The two looked very angry. The eldest prince smashed the table with a heavy fist and said angrily: "I didn't expect Zhang Jun to take away the Yin-Yang Cauldron. What should I do? He threatened me with the Yin-Yang Cauldron. How can I deal with him? Moreover, once my father investigates, you and I will not be able to escape responsibility."

The prince's teacher sighed and said: "It's useless to regret now. The important thing is to take back the Yin-Yang Cauldron first. If you don't take it back, your highness will be tied up in front of Zhang Jun and can't do anything to him."

"But how can we take back the Yin-Yang Cauldron? Zhang Jun is not weak. Even the Mingmie Life and Death Array can only suppress him." The eldest prince said, with a look of distress.

At this moment, a thunderous cold snort came from the air, and a purple light fell from the sky, projecting a tall and majestic human figure. The human figure was wearing golden armor, magnificent and earth-shaking, but the facial expression was a little blurry and unclear.

As soon as they saw this person appear, the eldest prince and his teacher bowed to the ground, their foreheads dripping with cold sweat and their bodies trembling. The eldest prince said respectfully: "The son pays homage to the emperor."

"The old minister pays homage to the emperor Xia!"

It turned out that this figure was actually the emperor Xia's clone, no wonder the two of them were so nervous. They knew in their hearts that the matter of the Yin-Yang Cauldron was probably known to the emperor Xia, and it was impossible to hide it, so they were very scared and worried about being punished.

"You are so bold! You actually lost the Yin-Yang Cauldron. Do you know how important the Yin-Yang Cauldron is?" Emperor Xia said coldly.

The prince's teacher kowtowed like pounding garlic and said: "Everything is the fault of the old minister, please punish me, Emperor Xia!"

The eldest prince knew that Emperor Xia knew the cause and effect, so he did not dare to shirk responsibility, and immediately said: "The son is to blame, please punish me, father."

Emperor Xia snorted coldly and said: "How dare Zhang Jun, a mere vassal, take the Yin-Yang Cauldron of this emperor? You two quickly summon him to come and see me in the Golden Light Palace!"

After saying that, Emperor Xia waved his sleeves and left. The eldest prince and the teacher looked at each other in bewilderment. They didn't understand why Emperor Xia met Zhang Jun. Why didn't he just take the Yin-Yang Cauldron? Why did he go to such lengths? Both of them knew that the power of heaven was unpredictable, so they stopped thinking about it and went to the Central Federation to find Zhang Jun.

One day later, Zhang Jun was still waiting for the result of the fusion of the Dragon Nest and the Mother Nest in the Federation. Suddenly, someone came to report that the eldest prince of Daxia had come here by imperial order. He was shocked. Did Emperor Xia know so quickly? It was a blessing, not a disaster. He immediately came out to greet him.

However, to his surprise, the eldest prince didn't seem to come to ask for punishment. He took out the imperial edict expressionlessly and said, "Emperor Xia has ordered Juntian Hou Zhang Jun to go to the Jinguang Palace to meet him. I do this!"
