Chapter 171 All Taxes Spent (1/2)
Being able to advance to the Golden Core Stage within fifty years of becoming a disciple, Taishi Mingzhen herself is an absolute genius cultivator.
But it took her ten years to cultivate this magical power of teleportation. Thinking about the magical power that she cultivated after ten years of hard work, she was praised by a group of elders in the sect.
Taishi Mingzhen herself was quite proud of being able to cultivate the magical power of teleportation.
She also knew that Feng Tianzong had only been in the Dao for thirty years, but he was able to advance to the Golden Core Stage. She also knew that Feng Tianzong was a more talented cultivator than her.
But Feng Tianzong cultivated teleportation into a magical power in just a few months, which was unreasonable. How could she be calm?
Feng Tianzong looked at the usually calm Taishi Mingzhen and found her very cute. He went forward to hug her in his arms and kissed her heavily.
"Did you really succeed in cultivating it? Did my husband lie to me?" Taishi Mingzhen asked in disbelief. At this moment, she felt that her Tao heart was a little broken. "Am I really not a genius? Is this what a true genius should be like?"
"Of course, what's the point of deceiving you about this? When we fight against the enemy together in the future, won't it be exposed?" Feng Tianzong said very calmly.
Although he has not yet mastered the magic of teleportation, it does not prevent him from confidently telling his wife that he has mastered the magic power.
Anyway, after the night of New Year's Eve, this is no longer a lie, and it is not a lie.
"I still don't believe it, or my husband will show it to me." Tai Shi Mingzhen said in disbelief. She was not fair about her hard work and efforts in the past ten years, and she also wanted to ask for an explanation for her qualifications.
"There is no rush for this matter. This time, I came here to discuss the New Year with you. According to the practice of previous years, the family will have a reunion dinner on the night of New Year's Eve.
But you are different from them. If you don't want to eat with those ordinary women, then don't go. I will come to accompany you during the day and accompany them to celebrate the New Year at night." Feng Tianzong said generously.
"Thank you for your understanding, husband." Tai Shi Mingzhen said gratefully. She felt that Feng Tianzong was unwilling to force her to celebrate the New Year together, and gave her enough respect.
With this interruption, Tai Shi Mingzhen did not continue to pursue what Feng Tianzong had to demonstrate to her.
As a husband, he must make his wife admire him. Especially Tai Shi Mingzhen, who is not sure whether she is really following him and being his woman.
Hitting her from time to time to avoid any small thoughts, and also paving the way for his cultivation and magical powers that will be advancing by leaps and bounds in all aspects.
His cultivation and strength have improved so quickly, but he cannot show his saintliness in front of others. He always has to perform well in front of his wife.
In the next few days, Feng Tianzong did not appear in front of Tai Shi Mingzhen at all, and he did not accompany her on the day of New Year's Eve as agreed in advance.
It's really exciting to run away after pretending to be cool. Tai Shi Mingzhen really couldn't eat well or sleep well these days, and even practiced and was always upset.
She was always wondering if Feng Tianzong had deceived her. She really couldn't believe that someone could successfully practice the magical power of teleportation in just a few months.
She had never been looking forward to Feng Tianzong's appearance as much as she was now. She would not believe it until she saw Feng Tianzong perform the magical power of teleportation with her own eyes.
Unfortunately, he never came. She asked the maid to inform Feng Tianzong, but the news she got was that Feng Tianzong was always busy.
Tai Shi Mingzhen didn't dare to walk around in the Weiyang Palace. After all, it was covered by the formation. Although she and Feng Tianzong had become Taoist partners in name and were husband and wife, they were enemies before. If she walked around now, she was afraid that Feng Tianzong would be suspicious. She still had this sense of propriety.
On the night of the 30th, Feng Tianzong and his beautiful wives and concubines had a reunion dinner, and he immediately announced that he would go into seclusion.
Lord: Feng Tianzong (lifespan 1898 years).
Territory: Northern Xinjiang
Population: 710,458.
Tax rate: 1%/year (taxes can be collected from the population under control every year.)
Taxes: 0 years.
[Cultivation: Jindan Stage 1 (Time can be consumed to improve - 680 years)]
[Puppetry: Stage 3 Early Stage - (Time can be consumed to improve 280 years)]
[Formation: Stage 3 Early Stage - (Time can be consumed to improve 360 years)]
Taxes!
Taxes: 7105 years.
It is one year longer than expected. It seems that there was a small surplus when the tax was collected last time. This time, it will be displayed after a full year.
Feng Tianzong thought about it. He was not in a hurry to improve his cultivation again after he was promoted to Jindan Stage. It is not good to have cultivation without combat power.
Especially in the current era of great struggle, when the elite disciples of major sects in the world are fighting for the dragon. Cultivation is important, but magical powers, puppets, formations, and other means of protecting the way are also indispensable.
Feng Tianzong did not hesitate and learned the life-saving magical power of teleportation first.
He spent thirty years of tax money to upgrade teleportation to the entry level.
Thirty years passed in the blink of an eye. He spent five years studying the method of practicing this spell. After reading a book a hundred times, the meaning became clear. Then he tried to practice it bit by bit. Finally, he succeeded in learning this spell.
Then it took a hundred years to become proficient, two hundred and thirty years to become proficient, three hundred and forty years to become a master, and then it took another four hundred years to condense into a magical seed.
It took 1,100 years of tax to just teleport.
No wonder Tai Shi Mingzhen said that those who can't learn it can't learn it, even if they force it. But Feng Tianzong proved with facts that if you force it, you can still learn it. God will not let down those who work hard, as long as you work hard, you can grind an iron rod into a needle.
Of course, it took a little more time, which is just a hundred times more time than Tai Shi Mingzhen.
The next step is to transform your own natal puppet. With the rare material of meteorite iron, it is the best opportunity to transform your natal puppet.
However, Feng Tianzong wanted to make his natal puppet perfect, so he thought about learning the top magical power of falling stars, and then refining his own natal puppet.
The top magical power, Falling Stars, is actually easier to practice than teleportation. The external manifestation is that it takes one hundred years less tax, and only one thousand years of tax.
Tax: 5005 years.
Next, Feng Tianzong is going to improve the puppetry. Whether it is to re-refine the natal puppet or to refine a powerful copper puppet, puppetry is the most basic and must-learn knowledge.
[Consume 280 years of tax to improve the puppetry, puppetry level 3 elementary - level 3 intermediate]
[Consume 350 years of tax to improve the puppetry, puppetry level 3 intermediate - level 3 advanced]
Feng Tianzong upgraded the puppetry to level 3 advanced in one breath. This level of puppetry can completely refine puppets in the late Jindan period.
If he continues to improve, even if he wants to refine a puppet in the Yuanying period, he does not have that mana. With his current strength of the first level of Jindan, the puppetry has been upgraded to the current level, which is completely enough.
The next step is to refine the natal puppet. After refining, Feng Tianzhu refined all the meteorite iron into the natal puppet.
This made his natal puppet reach a very high level in terms of material strength and spiritual energy conduction. At least in terms of defense, it is not inferior to the copper essence puppet of the same level.
After all, the meteorite iron is a more precious and rare material than the Shoushan copper essence. This material can also accommodate more magical seeds.
Compared with the copper essence puppet, it only lacks the anti-magic feature. But the meteorite iron has another wonderful use, which is a surprise for Feng Tianzong.
The meteorite iron has a bonus in terms of speed. After refining the meteorite iron into the natal puppet, the speed of the natal puppet doubles directly.
For his own natal puppet, Feng Tianzong was not stingy and directly gave the greatest support within his ability, the magical seed of instant movement, the magical seed of the top magical power of falling stars, the magical seed of gravity control, the magical seed of the vertical cloud method, and of course the magical seed of the slow spell.
Feng Tianzong originally wanted to integrate the magical power seeds of the Golden Light Curse into it, but unfortunately, the five magical power seeds, including two top-level magical power seeds, have reached the endurance limit of the material of Meteorite. At the same time, it is also a strong test for his cultivation.
All five magical power seeds were integrated into the re-refining of the natal puppet. Feng Tianzong had previously laughed at the need for people who refine pills to wait in front of the pill furnace for 49 days.
Unexpectedly, he also experienced this kind of comfort when refining the natal puppet this time, and it was super doubled. Five magical power seeds are not so easy to integrate.
The formation nodes cannot have any conflict, and the formation nodes need to be reset and the magical power operation route needs to be designed. It took Feng Tianzong 9981 days to successfully refine the natal puppet.
There are also many other consumptions, such as the magical power seeds integrated into the natal puppet, which are all consumed and need to be cultivated again.
Just to refine the magical seeds into the natal puppet, Feng Tianzong used tax money to replenish it, which consumed 1,150 years of taxes.
However, with the high consumption of taxes, the strength of his natal puppet has also been greatly improved. Because of the fusion of five magical seeds, Feng Tianzong also borrowed the refining method and internal formation of the copper essence puppet.
The strength of his natal puppet has been greatly improved, and it has been raised to the strength of the late Jindan in one breath. It has become the most powerful combat force in his hands now.
Looking at the natal puppet with a black metallic luster, a tall figure, and a pair of huge bat wings behind it, Feng Tianzong nodded with satisfaction.
Although the consumption is a little high, it is worth the money. The flying speed of the natal puppet alone is not weaker than the original golden-winged roc.
With the current fighting power of the natal puppet, if it encounters the golden-winged roc incarnated by Ying Fengyi of the Demon God Sect, it can directly knock him down and make a small barbecue, without having to self-destruct a copper puppet of the Jindan level.
Just learned two magical powers, plus re-refining the natal puppet and improving the puppetry, Feng Tianzong's tax money has consumed most of it.
Tax: 3225 years.
The tax money is really not enough, and the copper puppet will be refined next. Feng Tianzong doesn't want to refine the ordinary copper puppet, he wants to refine the top copper puppet.
The fighting power of the two puppets of Jinshi and Huishi also needs to be improved.
Feng Tianzong calculated that a magical seed of teleportation, from the master to re-cultivate the magical seed, will consume 400 years of taxes, gravity control is also 400 years, and stars fall is also 400 years.
If these three magical seeds are integrated, a copper spirit puppet will consume 1,200 years.
However, compared with ordinary copper spirit puppets, the copper spirit puppet refined by Feng Tianzong, which integrates three magical seeds, has the strength of the late Jindan period. You get what you pay for, so it's not a loss.
Feng Tianzong refined two copper spirit puppets in one breath, and consumed another 2,400 years of taxes.
Feng Tianzong looked at the remaining 825 years of taxes and was a little worried. The taxes were not enough.
It takes 600 years for Jinshi to upgrade from the early Jindan period to the middle Jindan period.
Gray stone is a little less, and it takes 500 years.
The remaining taxes are not enough, and only one can be upgraded. Feng Tianzong directly used the taxes on Jinshi.
The strength of Jinshi was upgraded from the early Jindan period to the middle Jindan period.
Fortunately, the strength of the puppet is not like that of the cultivator, which is upgraded layer by layer, otherwise it will be a bottomless pit.
In essence, puppets are also a special kind of magic weapon, which has its own combat ability.
There are still 225 years of tax left, which is not enough to improve anything. Feng Tianzong thought about it and learned the advanced magical power, the Phantom God Curse, which was given to him by Ying Fengyi of the Demon God Sect.
The Phantom God Curse is just an ordinary advanced magical power, which is much easier to learn than ordinary advanced magical powers. It took 210 years to cultivate this magical power. The remaining 15 years of tax revenue was added to his life.
Feng Tianzong spent all the tax money for the whole year in one breath. Although his cultivation level did not improve, his strength has undergone a qualitative transformation.
First, the improvement of the natal puppet, followed by the two copper spirit puppets, which are the combat power of the three late Jindan.
Jinshi has also been upgraded to the middle Jindan, and its strength has also been greatly improved.
With this strength, Feng Tianzong feels that at least in this dragon fight, it should be enough to sweep.
I heard from Tai Shi Mingzhen before that Ying Fengyi of the Demon God Sect is already a top figure in the young generation of the immortal world, who can be ranked in the top five.
But with Feng Tianzong's current strength, even if he doesn't dare to say that he can beat ten people like Ying Fengyi, he can still beat four easily.
If Ying Fengyi can compete for the top five, Feng Tianzong thinks that he should call the other four young geniuses who can compete with Ying Fengyi and let them come together. He can let those people take care of them all with one hand.
Of course, he can use both hands and feet. He doesn't need to do it himself. It's enough to have puppets. But that would be too immodest. As a descendant of the dragon, the traditional virtue of modesty cannot be lost, so he only let one hand.
