Chapter 352 Fundraising
Mo Hua had tried before that the collapse of the complex array and the reverse dissolution of the spiritual power generated could hurt this Feng Xi.
However, Feng Xi's blood was too strong and regenerated quickly. A small-scale collapse could not kill him at all, but a large-scale array collapse was completely different.
If the entire array collapsed, how strong would the collapse force be...
Mo Hua tried to think about it, and couldn't help but feel palpitations in his heart.
It's better not to go to this point...
It takes a lot of hard work to build a large array, and it costs countless manpower and material resources. Mo Hua is reluctant to do so.
However, if he has time, he still needs to use his spiritual sense to deduce the large array and make preparations in advance.
Even if it is not used for collapse, using the spiritual sense to deduce and increase the understanding of the large array is also very helpful.
After all, the opportunity to really draw a large array is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The matter of building a large formation to suppress and kill Feng Xi was officially announced to the cultivators of Tongxian City after the Daoting Division, Daobing Division and Elder Yu agreed.
The cultivators of Tongxian City had different reactions.
Some cultivators from small families did not believe that a large formation could be built, nor were they willing to build one. They packed their bags overnight and left secretly.
Some cultivators with property or special status had already prepared a retreat, so it was naturally impossible for them to stay in Tongxian City and take risks.
Some independent cultivators also thought that building a large formation was a fantasy, so they quietly left without saying goodbye and went to find another way to make a living.
Other cultivators or forces with some connections and ways out also left or dispersed.
In contrast, most independent cultivators and almost all demon hunters chose to stay.
They have lived in Tongxian City for generations, born and raised here, married and had children here, and slowly grew old here. Their lifelong joys and sorrows are closely related to Tongxian City.
It is hard to leave their homeland, and they don't want to abandon the city and flee.
As long as there is a glimmer of hope, they will fight for it.
And after experiencing all kinds of things, they believe in Elder Yu, and even more in Mo Hua.
A large part of their life today is due to Mo Hua's formation.
Now that Mo Hua wants to build a large formation, they all want to help Mo Hua.
What's more, this large formation is built for themselves.
In addition, the weapon refiners are led by Master Chen, and most of them stayed; and the alchemists are led by Mr. Feng, and most of the alchemists also want to stay and do their part.
Mo Hua was a little emotional for a while.
At the critical moment, most of the "upper-level" cultivators in Tongxian City abandoned the city and fled;
And the lower-level cultivators who have experienced hardships in Tongxian City are doing their best to protect this city...
But it doesn't matter if some cultivators escape.
Most of the casual cultivators stayed, and there was a human foundation for building a large formation.
The construction of the formation requires a construction medium, and the construction requires a craftsman, so Elder Yu went to invite Master Ban.
Master Ban agreed without hesitation.
He had received the favor of Elder Yu and Mo Hua, and was amazed at the level of Mo Hua's formation.
At this time, he had the opportunity to show his kindness, so he agreed without thinking much.
Besides, this is to build a formation.
In his life, including all the craftsmen he had dealt with, no one had built a formation, so Master Ban naturally wanted to see it.
Master Ban sighed in his heart:
"This is a big deal. If the formation can really be built, it will be a major event in the history of the state, and you can boast to your descendants for a lifetime."
A group of craftsmen under Master Ban also nodded in agreement.
The manpower of the formation has been solved, and the next step is to raise spirit stones and materials.
Elder Yu donated most of the income of the demon hunter.
Including the spiritual mines seized by the demon hunters, the profits from the weapon and alchemy businesses over the past few days, and some of his own assets.
Other casual cultivators, more or less, also donated some spiritual stones, leaving only some for basic cultivation expenses.
Mo Shan also donated, and Liu Ruhua donated most of the spiritual stones she had saved since opening the restaurant.
She was a little reluctant, after all, these were for Mo Hua to practice in the future, buy caves, and marry a Taoist partner.
However, now that Mo Hua is the main person building the formation, these spiritual stones are also used according to Mo Hua's intentions.
Mo Hua also donated the 10,000 spiritual stones that Elder Yu gave him before, but Elder Yu was unwilling to accept them.
Elder Yu blew his beard and glared: "Don't join in the fun!"
"I want to build the formation, so I naturally have to donate some spiritual stones. Mo Hua said.
"You are not needed for this. "Elder Yu refused.
Ten thousand spirit stones... can I ask for a little...
"But..."
Mo Hua wanted to say something, but Elder Yu interrupted him and said:
"These are for you to build your foundation. No matter whether the formation can be built or whether Feng Xi can be killed in the end, it cannot delay your foundation building."
Elder Yu said solemnly: "Your foundation building is the most important!"
"But you must pass this level first..."
"No matter whether you can pass this level or not, you must build your foundation!" Elder Yu repeated again.
Seeing that Mo Hua wanted to say something, Elder Yu sighed:
"If you really feel bad, after you build your foundation in the future, you will become a second-grade formation master and help us when you can."
"A second-grade formation master, then your word is really a sure thing. At that time, it will be more convenient for you to do anything. "
Mo Hua nodded. Elder Yu was right, but he didn't know whether he could build a large formation or not. It was equally important to him.
He wanted to build a large formation and use it to comprehend more advanced formations step by step.
Mo Hua still insisted on giving the spirit stone to Elder Yu.
Elder Yu sighed and had to accept it. After accepting it, he quickly stuffed it into Mo Hua's arms while Mo Hua was not paying attention.
"Okay, you have donated now, I will give it to you again."
Mo Hua was a little amused.
"How can a formation master not want to be paid for drawing formations?" Elder Yu said with a stern face, "You keep it well."
Mo Hua knew that Elder Yu was stubborn, so he had to accept it.
The collection of spirit stones was carried out step by step. It was obviously far from enough to rely solely on demon hunters and casual cultivators.
Mo Hua went to find Zhou Zhangsi again.
Zhou Zhangsi stroked his beard and said two ways:
"One is that I write to the Dao Court and apply for some spirit stone materials. The reason is that the city is relocated to fight the disaster and there is a shortage of spirit stones..."
"Don't you just say it's used to build a large formation?" Mo Hua asked in confusion.
"If you say it's a large formation, it will never be approved." Zhou Zhangsi said.
Mo Hua was slightly stunned.
Chief Zhou explained to Mo Hua:
"If I say I want to build a large formation, the Dao Court will not believe me, let alone approve it. Tongxian City is just a small fairy city, and there are not many first-class formation masters. How can I build a large formation?"
"Even if they believe it and want to approve it, they have to send people to investigate clearly."
"The Dao Court has redundant institutions and complicated interests. I have no one to take care of me. I don't know how much time has passed."
"And the cultivation materials needed to build a large formation are a bottomless pit. The Dao Court may not be willing to spend them."
"It is better to find a known and safe reason to apply for a batch. As many as you can get, less is not a loss, and more is better."
"As for the big head of spiritual stones, we still have to find another way."
Mo Hua asked curiously: "What else can we do?"
Chapter Zhou stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Guess."
Mo Hua thought about it and thought about it. He said:
"Qian family?"
Zhou Zhangsi nodded, "Yes, the Qian family is rich, and because of the relationship with the Qian family ancestor, most of them are not clean."
"Do you want to confiscate the Qian family's house?"
Zhou Zhangsi shook his head, "Not yet, the matter is urgent. As long as the Qian family donates their property, we can not pursue the Qian family ancestor's building of the Black Mountain Stronghold and colluding with evil cultivators."
Zhou Zhangsi said coldly: "In the final analysis, the matter of Feng Xi should still be counted on the head of the Qian family ancestor. If he had not used humans to refine pills and used this pig monster as a pill furnace, such a great disaster would not have occurred."
"Now give their Qian family a chance to make meritorious contributions, I hope they will not be ungrateful..."
Mo Hua nodded, and said:
"Then I will go to find Mr. An again to see if he is willing to donate."
The An family is the second largest family in Tongxian City, and they also have a lot of spirit stones.
Manager Zhou hesitated, "The An family is doing business on the spot, and even if they are asked to donate their property, Mr. An may not agree."
"How do we know if we don't try? What if Mr. An is broad-minded and kind?" Mo Hua said.
Manager Zhou pulled the corner of his mouth, obviously unconvinced, but still said:
"You can try it."
Mo Hua ran to find Mr. An again, and said straight to the point without keeping him in suspense:
"Grandpa, we are going to build a big formation, do you want to donate some spirit stones?"
Mr. An showed no joy or anger, and said lightly:
"What if I don't want to donate?"
Mo Hua said casually: "I'll just ask, if you don't donate, forget it, we are so close, and I won't embarrass you."
Mr. An looked at Mo Hua's expression, and seeing that he was not unhappy, he sighed slightly, realizing that he had thought too much.
He thought Mo Hua was here to use courtesy first and then force.
It takes spirit stones to build a big formation, and their An family has spirit stones, so this relationship is very delicate.
Once something unexpected happens, their An family is a natural spirit warehouse.
Grandpa An has lived for so long, and he knows that the friendship between people is shallow and fragile, and interests are cruel but tenacious.
The An family has some friendship with Mo Hua, but no matter how strong the friendship is, it is not as strong as spirit stones, not to mention that their friendship with Mo Hua is not that deep.
Grandpa An's expression gradually became solemn.
He knew that Mo Hua had the final say in building the big formation.
Although he couldn't figure out how Mo Hua persuaded Elder Yu, Zhou Zhangshi of the Dao Ting Division, and Yang Tongling of the Dao Bing Division for such a big thing.
This is building a big formation, how can it be so easy.
But Mo Hua did it.
Mo Hua has a special identity and a wide network of people. Although he looks young, many things in Tongxian City are actually dominated by him.
Especially now, the biggest forces in Tongxian City are almost all standing behind him.
If he wants to make things difficult for the An family, then the An family will have a hard time.
If he insists on the An family donating spirit stones, then the An family must donate. If they don't donate, there will definitely be no good end.
If Mo Hua doesn't make things difficult for the An family, then neither the Dao Ting Division, nor the Dao Bing Division, nor even the demon hunters will put pressure on the An family.
Now it seems that Mo Hua doesn't want to make things difficult for the An family...
Old Master An secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then he became confused again:
"You really don't want me to donate?"
Mo Hua corrected: "I definitely want you to donate, but whether you want to or not is up to you."
Old Master An nodded, and after a moment, he suddenly tried again:
"What if I want to donate?"
Mo Hua's eyes lit up, thinking about the words he had prepared long ago, and began to "paint a big cake" for Old Master An.
