Chapter 184: Pre-Arranged Backup Plan
Ten days later.
All the sixteen signal towers in Xiao State were set up.
This means that within the range of activities of the cultivators in Xiao State and Yue State, the Lingyin Jade Pendant has received the signal.
Even at a distance of tens of thousands of miles, communication can be completed.
In the Qingling Xiuxian Market, Lingyin Jade Pendant Specialty Store, at Cao Rui's suggestion, Zhang Mo, a cultivator in the foundation-building period, appeared in person and announced the good news.
Once the news was announced, the cultivators in the market were all shocked.
The cultivators gathered in front of the specialty store immediately experimented and contacted one of their fellow Taoists.
After the Lingyin Jade Pendant flashed, it found that the fellow Taoist who went to a certain ruin in Xiao State could actually be contacted.
The cultivator who was exploring the ruins in Xiao State was also very surprised.
This ruins is 20,000 miles away from Qingling Market, and it can also be successfully transmitted?
The cultivators in the market began to try the new range of communication capabilities of the Lingyin Jade Pendant.
The Lingyin Jade Pendant, which covers the range of Yueguo and Xiaoguo, has suddenly become more attractive to the cultivators in the southwest of Yunzhou!
For a time, the pre-sale orders in the Lingyin Jade Pendant franchise store began to rise rapidly again.
What does it mean that ordinary casual cultivators can achieve instant communication over tens of thousands of miles?
It means that when there are thieves and demons, their traces will be quickly transmitted.
It means that when cultivators with bad intentions want to play the role of thieves, they will be concerned about their image being spread.
It means that the communication ability of low-level casual cultivators will be no different from that of high-level cultivators.
The entire world of immortal cultivation will be closely connected because of this communication tool.
Before this, except for the three major sects, the rest of the immortal cultivation forces and ordinary casual cultivators had the largest number of people, but their presence was actually very low.
The 200,000 cultivators in the southwest of Yunzhou will gradually show their terrifying consumption power in front of the Lingyin Jade Pendant.
......
Xiaoguo Palace. On an observatory. Cao Rui sat on a stone bench, his hands on his knees, looking calmly ahead.
In front of him sat several monks from the Spiritual Beast Sect who had just arrived. They were all foundation-building monks sent to assist Cao Rui after Cao Rui contacted Lu Jiuxiao through the Lingyin Jade Pendant.
These monks wore the Taoist robes of the Spiritual Beast Sect and exuded a powerful aura.
One of the foundation-building monks wearing a mask was Xu Ye, the head of the Law Enforcement Court of the Spiritual Beast Sect, whose strength was unfathomable.
There was also a young man, Feng Qingyun, who had successfully built his foundation. He was a descendant of the Feng family and also had an impressive cultivation base.
"The Yunshui Sect and Miaoyin Temple will probably take action soon." Cao Rui said softly, with a hint of worry in his tone.
He knew that once the Yunshui Sect and Miaoyin Temple launched an attack, he alone would definitely not be able to protect all the signal towers.
So, he asked Lu Jiuxiao for help.
Lu Jiuxiao also attached great importance to this matter and sent Xu Ye, the most powerful person in the sect except him, and Feng Qingyun, who had outstanding combat power, to support.
In addition, Cao Rui also called Ye Yunyin from the market.
Ye Yunyin, a sword cultivator, is at the sixth level of foundation building.
Ye Yunyin and Cao Rui relied on each other in the market, and went to the East China Sea together to find the spiritual pattern crystal. They trusted each other. As sword cultivators, their combat power was unquestionable.
Feng Qingyun, the 102nd generation disciple, is at the second level of foundation building.
Although Feng Qingyun is only at the second level of foundation building, he has a special phoenix bloodline, so it is not a problem to fight across levels.
Xu Ye, the head of the Law Enforcement Court, is at the eighth level of foundation building.
Needless to say, his combat power is the second person under the leader of the Spirit Beast Sect.
"This time, Cao Rui once again thanks the three fellow Taoists." Cao Rui said.
Although the generations of the few people are different, there is nothing wrong with calling each other fellow Taoists as fellow cultivators in the foundation building stage.
"Don't be polite. When you kidnapped Zhang Mo, you didn't say anything to me." Xu Ye said with a sarcasm under his mask.
Zhang Mo, as the most outstanding wind spirit root disciple among the 101st generation of disciples, was previously a true disciple accepted by Xu Ye.
Now, with the approval of Lu Jiuxiao, he was kidnapped to Qingling Market by Cao Rui.
However, Cao Rui was willing to spend a lot of money and directly gave him the foundation-building pill. Xu Ye could only glare at him but had no place to reason.
"Tell me your plan quickly. I have received intelligence that Yunshui Sect and Miaoyin Temple will probably jointly send out many foundation-building monks to remove the signal tower when the opportunity arises."
"They said they must teach our Spirit Beast Sect a lesson." Xu Ye said.
As the head of the Law Enforcement Court, Xu Ye was well-informed and already knew that Yunshui Sect and Miaoyin Temple were about to come and cause trouble.
With so many signal towers and such a large range, this large-scale defensive battle is actually very difficult to fight, and Xu Ye has no idea.
Cao Rui could only chuckle about Zhang Mo's matter, then put away his smile and said seriously: "Don't worry, Master Xu. In fact, when I designed the magic array runes of the signal tower, I had already predicted the problems that might be encountered in the future deployment of the signal tower."
"So... I actually arranged a backup plan in advance."
Cao Rui patted his storage bag and took out a small array plate from the storage bag.
"This is a small array plate that collects the signals of the signal tower. After it is activated, it can monitor the information and location of the cultivators near each signal tower."
Cao Rui placed a few spirit stones on the small array plate.
The small array plate flickered for a while, and then light spots appeared one by one.
The linear network composed of these light spots was exactly the signal towers that Cao Rui had arranged before.
Looking closely, there are even fainter light spots within the signal range of these signal towers.
If the light spots representing the signal towers are stones, then these faint light spots are like sand grains.
"These sand grains represent the monks near the signal towers."
Cao Rui pointed at the sand grains and said.
Hearing this, several foundation-building monks present were shocked.
In addition to transmitting messages, this signal tower can also monitor the traces of monks within the signal range?
"If this function is exposed, I'm afraid Yunshui Sect and Miaoyin Temple will never allow the signal tower to be deployed." Feng Qingyun said in a serious tone.
"The sect master sent you here, naturally thinking that you are trustworthy. You must not leak the function of the signal tower." Cao Rui also said softly.
Cao Rui zoomed in on the signal tower at the palace: "These larger sand grains represent the foundation-building stage. The four large sand grains just represent our four foundation-building stages. The signal tower cannot distinguish the specific foundation-building stage too clearly."
"Look, at the current coverage of the Xiao Kingdom's signal tower, except for the palace, there are no foundation-building figures in the other 16 signal towers of the Xiao Kingdom."
"If foundation-building cultivators appear at these locations, then it can basically be determined that the foundation-building cultivators of the Yunshui Sect or the Miaoyin Temple have taken action."
"With this method, we can use stillness to control movement, wait for their methods to arrive, and then give a fatal counterattack." Cao Rui said coldly.
