Chapter 227: The Ice Peak Collapses Again, and the Strange Creature Returns
In the face of huge benefits, local forces will no longer hand over the corpses of monsters, but take them to the new cave in exchange for benefits.
At that time, whoever wants to stop Gu Ke from harvesting soul sources, he will not mind letting plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum represent the fairy mountain to teach some people the rules.
The nearly two million soul sources harvested in the past two years were first used to upgrade the kitchen to level 15, and then the workshop and processing workshop, a pair of "brothers in distress", finally upgraded to level 15.
The remaining soul sources were finally invested in the roadside stall, barely upgrading it to level 12.
The next soul sources will be used on it until level 15, which will increase the number of stalls and reach the level of 5 levels.
According to convention, the freedom of system construction at level 15 will be greatly improved.
Gu Ke is still looking forward to the freer roadside stall.
The direct income of the roadside stall is indeed nothing, but it is an important channel for cultivating sincere people.
At least half of the nearly 500,000 soul sources provided by sincere people in a year are attributed to the roadside stall.
On the other hand, the number of monsters will not remain at the low level of the past two years.
In fact, when Gu Ke explored the world, he found that the gap in the black hole of the Eternal Ice Peak was gushing out a large amount of soul source.
The soul source carried that alien breath and could isolate his vague perception. It was obvious that the comer was not friendly.
The next attack of the monster will not be long.
Retracting his thoughts, Gu Ke held a book printed by Saranzhu in his hand, flicked the pages casually, and finally the cover fell off, revealing four big words-Tianji Ninghun.
This martial soul-level martial arts has been acquired for two years. He has been studying it, but he has not given it to the girls to practice.
Only the records on it were used to test their inclinations.
The two martial saints, the eldest lady and Xiao Ping'er, have been determined to be suitable for the Tianling Road and promoted to the Wuhun Realm.
And Bai Suqing has not woken up yet in meditation, and Xiaoman, Meilanzhuju are only martial masters, and their inclinations cannot be completely determined.
But from the details, the two girls, Meilan, should choose the Tianling Road like the eldest lady.
Bai Suqing, Xiaoman, and Zhuju are more suitable for the path of earth gods, and strive towards the realm of martial gods.
Unfortunately, Gu Ke has no actual observation object.
Xiao Ping'er has only been promoted to the martial saint for a few years. If the foundation is not solid, it will be very dangerous to promote to the martial soul realm.
The eldest lady is gifted, but she is not in the cave. If there is a problem, it is difficult to treat. Gu Ke really dare not use her as the first test subject.
Until this year, after he repeatedly studied the Tianji Condensed Soul, he felt that the time was ripe.
Now is July of the 519th year of Dawu, and the eldest lady and her friends left the cave on December 29th of the 510th year.
There are only the last five months of the ten-year period.
At this time, give the Tianji Condensed Soul to the eldest lady, let her think about it for a few months before formally practicing.
If there is an accident, Meilan Zhuju can escort her to Yulong Cave.
Protect the mind with the soul-soothing and mind-calming properties of the bedroom, and maintain the body with the life essence properties of the spiritual spring, so that life can be guaranteed.
Even if she had to recuperate in the cave for ten years, it would be better than being helpless outside.
Of course, this was just Gu Ke's habit - to prepare for the worst and expect the best results, so as not to be in a hurry when an accident happens.
With the young lady's talent and intuition, the possibility of problems is the smallest among everyone.
Thinking of this, he finally threw the book in his hand into the Qiankun bag, along with a note, and "expressed" it to the young lady.
...
In Xintaiping City, after getting up and washing up every day, the young lady checked the Qiankun bag as usual.
She found that in addition to the expected breakfast and snacks, there was also the skill book.
When she took it out, she saw a piece of paper on it, full of notes.
After a quick glance, she immediately became interested and took out the breakfast casually, ready to read while eating.
She was fascinated by it.
Mei Shu and others next to her didn't disturb her.
With the control of the martial saint's blood and qi, she can be self-contained and greatly reduce unnecessary consumption in daily life.
Even if the young lady didn't eat or drink for ten days or half a month, she would still be full of energy.
Besides, she has always been a fast reader, and most martial arts books can be read in less than a cup of tea.
As a result, when they went out to complete the morning practice, they came back to see the young lady put down the book, with a thoughtful look on her face.
Juqin looked at the cover curiously: "Tianji Ninghun, is this martial art very powerful?"
Although they were curious, they would not reach out for something that the young lady did not take the initiative to let them see.
The young lady nodded subconsciously: "Very powerful..."
After a pause, she came back to her senses, reached out and wiped it, and put it into the Qiankun bag: "But he said that you and Zhuqi may not be suitable for practicing this."
Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju all knew who this "he" was, without any doubt.
Juqin was curious: "Miss, I'm a martial master now, but I can't practice this. How powerful is it?"
Miss chuckled, raised her hand and flicked out a wisp of blood, knocking it on her forehead: "At least a martial saint can practice it. How powerful do you think it is? If you have time to care about this, you should think about when you will become a martial saint."
Juqin heard this and immediately had a "you must be kidding me" expression on her face: "Miss, I have only been promoted to martial master for more than a year. A few days ago, you complained that my foundation was not solid enough and asked me to be patient and polish it for ten or eight years."
Miss snorted: "If you work a little harder like me every day, can your foundation not be solid?"
Juqin finally couldn't help it, rolled her eyes fiercely, and muttered: "If I really have your talent, do I still need to work hard?"
The eldest lady and the other three women were speechless after hearing this.
This is just like "If I had Einstein's brain, would I still not get a doctorate in physics?", there is nothing wrong with it.
After some joking, the eldest lady did not take it lightly.
It's not that she thinks this Tianji Ninghun is difficult to understand, but someone wrote a note that if she has problems with her practice, she will be sent back to the cave for "rescue".
This makes the eldest lady not careless.
Once she is careless, even if there is only a small problem, she may really be sent back to the cave for healing.
Going back to the cave is not a problem, the problem is that she can't go back for this reason, it's too embarrassing.
When it comes to martial arts training in the future, his confidence in her will inevitably be greatly reduced.
The eldest lady doesn't want to be underestimated, so she must be serious.
Of course, the martial soul realm described by Tianji Ningzhen also makes her very excited.
Just like the first round of external martial arts can allow people to accumulate and break through to the second round, but it is difficult to quickly improve the strength in the second round.
After becoming a martial saint, the Sunflower Sutra played a major role in maintaining her daily state and slowly improving her strength.
She didn't know where the road ahead was before she had accumulated enough and hadn't made a breakthrough.
The young lady didn't like this state of confusion and had been thinking about it.
Gu Yu, however, wanted to open up a road ahead from scratch and ensure that she could continue to walk on it, which was beyond imagination.
It wasn't until she got this Tianji Ninghun that the young lady felt enlightened.
This is a road with a clear route and a solid foundation.
For the young lady who is not short of talent and has accumulated a ridiculous amount of experience, a slight adjustment will lead to an unobstructed expressway.
The feeling of being unblocked for several years and then being unblocked in one day made her quickly indulge in research and unable to extricate herself.
This immersion lasted for several months.
Originally, she had to rely on Mei Lan Zhu Ju to watch over her meals, afternoon tea, and supper.
Li Xiu'er could only greet Mei Lan Zhu Ju and have afternoon tea with her every day.
Fortunately, her current cultivation progress is fast and stable. If she encounters a small problem occasionally, the four martial masters, Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju, can answer it, not necessarily her own master.
Moreover, the main body of the new Taiping City has been built at the junction of the Western Wilderness and the Extreme Western Plateau, and Li Xiuer does not have much free time.
Most of the old people from Taiping Village have moved here one after another.
The old Taiping City in the courtyard is managed by the old people who stayed and the new people who joined in recent years.
Over the years, the administrative system of Taiping City has gradually matured with the help of Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju.
If it is to manage a territory as large as the four countries, it will definitely be beyond its capacity.
But it is not a big problem for a territory of only a county (one or two thousand miles).
The establishment of the new city also has its advantages, that is, it took away a large number of old people from Taiping Village, and a large number of middle and senior positions were vacant in the old city.
During the transition period of one to two years, the proportion of new people (joined in recent years) in the middle and senior levels of the old city will exceed 70%.
The promotion conditions for these "newcomers" have also been changed - in the past, sincerity was given priority, and merit was only used as a reference. Now, merit is given priority, and sincerity is an important reference.
"Newcomers" with enough merit will be promoted one after another, leaving a promotion channel for "newer" people.
For "newcomers" who have made considerable merit, staying in Taiping Old City is not exclusion.
First of all, in terms of climate and geographical environment, the West Wilderness where the new city is located is a poor mountain and bad water compared to the Central Courtyard.
Secondly, the surrounding area is sparsely populated, and the prosperous atmosphere of the big city is naturally gone.
The only better thing is probably... natural scenery? Unfortunately, the people of Dawu don't appreciate this much.
It is just as the old saying goes - the more people lack something, the more they want it.
Outside the city of Dawu, there are "green mountains, green waters, blue sky and white clouds" like Gu Ke's tourist destination in his previous life, and the people call it "a deserted place, a wilderness".
Most people don't want to live in wild villages and wild villages unless they are desperate.
On the contrary, the old city is located in the courtyard. In recent years, with Wu Zun in charge, it has developed rapidly and is as prosperous as the city.
It took the "new" managers only a few years to get familiar with the old city, and few wanted to go to the new city of Xihuang to open up wasteland.
Therefore, the people who went to Taiping New City included most of the old village people, a very small number of "newcomers" with higher sincerity, and finally a group of younger orphans.
After more than a year, the foundation of the second cave house where Taiping New City was placed has been transformed.
Gu Ke then opened up a new cave house and named it - Taiping Cave House.
He also appeared in the Shennong Temple in the new city with the projection of Shennong, and bestowed the Great Martial Cihai and agricultural and industrial skills.
After this blessing, the residents of the new city burst out with great enthusiasm for work in this barren land.
Without the prosperity of the old city, it is more suitable for them to practice martial arts diligently, open up wasteland and farm, and process and produce.
As Gu Ke's direct descendant, Li Xiuer received a large number of pills and utensils as rewards for the residents of the new city.
In addition to the lack of entertainment, the stability and living standards of the new city are actually far superior to those of the outside world.
Just three months after the eldest lady entered a semi-secluded state, when Dawu entered the early winter of October, a huge change occurred in the gap of the Eternal Ice Peak.
The alien soul sources there have been gathering in the past two years, and the concentration is far higher than other areas of Dawu.
Until this moment, these alien soul sources suddenly fluctuated violently.
With this fluctuation, the Eternal Ice Peak trembled, making a loud noise that shook the earth, and the sound spread hundreds of miles.
With the rumbling sound like thunder, the gap on the ice peak spread countless black cracks to the surrounding mountains.
Finally, with a loud bang, the gap on the Eternal Ice Peak changed from an O shape to a U shape, and extended hundreds of miles into the depths of the ice peak.
It is no longer a cave entrance, but an open-air avenue.
The black hole in the gap also expanded, spreading a large circle of gray-black strange fog, forming a black fog channel that is hundreds of miles long, spewing out a large number of alien soul sources.
The previous gap was at most a small household water pipe, but now this channel is comparable to the main pipeline of the city's water supply, and the difference cannot be measured in miles.
In the Yulong Cave Mansion, Gu Ke was using his divine thoughts to project to Taiping New City to inspect the progress of various experiments here.
Suddenly, his expression moved, he retracted his divine thoughts, turned his head to look to the north, and his vaguely perceived attention shifted there.
Half an hour later, a large number of strange creatures rushed out of the thick strange fog near the gap and were exposed to the vague perception.
The number exceeded ten thousand, and it was still increasing in the future.
He raised his hand and took out a coin of karma, rubbing it in his hand, and murmured: "This time, I'm afraid I'll make a lot of soul source again."
As he said this, he flicked his finger, and the coin of karma rolled into the air, turned into a purple light, and sank into the void.
On the other side, a golden line fell in front of Li Xiu'er who was practicing martial arts, and Shennong's voice echoed in his mind: "The Eternal Ice Peak collapsed again, the gap was a hundred times larger than before, and tens of thousands of strange things were coming towards Dawu."
Then thousands of coin of karma appeared out of thin air and sank into the void in all directions.
These coin of karma came from the middle and high-level of the One Court and Four Countries, and they could spread the news everywhere in a very short time.
When the matter was urgent, they had to be the mouthpiece.
All parties reacted quickly, especially the Beimo Country, which was the first to bear the brunt. It was the Su brothers and sisters who received Gu Ke's warning.
Gu Ke didn't pay much attention to the reaction of the One Court and Four Countries, and he also knew himself.
Even if there are tens of millions of believers in Xianshan, they cannot control Dawu, which has a territory of 100,000 miles and tens of billions of people.
In the previous life, there were neither demons nor martial arts, and Dawu had no telephone network and could not achieve centralization.
Managing a country is a science, and managing a big country is a comprehensive science.
If you want to solve practical problems, the whole people's keyboard politics is useless, and you can't simply copy it.
So he has been doing logistical assistance, trying to open up the upward channel and let talented people come forward.
This is the case with martial arts training and governing the country.
In addition, the direct forces of Taiping City and Bihai City have been nurtured for so long, and it is time to officially debut and show the results of learning.
So two or three days after the second collapse of Bingfeng, Taiping City and Bihai City sent out two-thirds of their high-end forces.
Including the two martial masters Lan Huajuqin, more than 20 martial masters including Li Xiuer, and more than 2,000 second-round masters.
