Chapter 239: Ice Peak Collapses, Strange Phenomena in Heaven and Earth

(It's the beginning of the month, as usual, I'm asking for subscriptions, the recommendation has increased some subscriptions, but now it's slowly falling back to 300)

The guaranteed minimum is in hand, and even if the remaining military merits and rewards are greatly discounted, you can still get some. Google search reading

Even so, the rewards of the two Southeast countries are still not as generous as those of the Northern Desert. Unfortunately, the martial arts circle in the Northern Desert is too competitive now.

Generally, the second-round masters can't even get a big official position, and can only form a group to go out and hunt monsters.

And the Northern Desert is the first in military merit, and the treatment of the self-organized "militia" is much worse.

With too many monks and too little porridge, the benefits of latecomers are not that high.

At this time, looking at the treatment of the two Southeast countries, it is barely acceptable.

Hunting monsters is extremely dangerous, and no one can guarantee that they can come back alive.

The "commission" is cashed on the spot and can be used to strengthen their strength immediately.

And the two Southeast countries know what they are doing, and they did not absorb and control the "militia" beyond their capabilities.

As long as they hand over the corpses of the monsters, the two countries can exchange more resources from the Blue Sea City and train more direct troops.

This trick of borrowing chickens to lay eggs also saves the daily support costs after recruiting them.

The militia warriors who don't want to be bound by military discipline are also very satisfied. They can exchange resources without having to have another father.

Both sides get what they need, and they are happy. .

As a major supplier, the Blue Sea City has not changed much in name.

Their manpower is limited, and they are mainly busy with official wholesale transactions between the two countries.

The Blue Sea City directly purchases the corpses of monsters on the market, which is limited to a range of one or two thousand miles around the city, and it is not possible to go further.

This is not a modern society, the productivity and technology are not that high, and there are no highways and high-speed railways.

Even if the population of the Blue Sea City has exceeded one million, it is impossible to radiate the logistics and sales system to the entire territory of Nanye, which is tens of thousands of miles away, in a short period of time.

At present, there are only officials from one court and four countries, who have gradually established a logistics system through hundreds of years of rule.

In the past, it was used to dispatch troops, materials, taxes, and salaries. Now, with the addition of the corpses of monsters and goods from the fairy mountains, there is almost no additional cost.

Seeing the rapid increase in the strength of the three countries in the east, south, and north, Zhongting and Xihuang could no longer sit still and also approached Taiping City for trade.

Taiping New City is in Xihuang, but the old city is still in Zhongting. It is only a piece of cake to complete the trade with these two countries.

With the eldest lady and Mei, Lan, Zhu, and Ju, there is no need to worry about anyone having bad intentions.

As a result, Juqin couldn't help it after all, and beat up one of the two great priests in Zhongting.

This great priest was the hemp-clothed strong man, who came with the trading officials and looked for an opportunity to instruct a martial master to provoke Li Xiuer.

Juqin didn't wait for the martial master to finish his words, and she used force to break the trick and directly beat the great priest.

She didn't stop until the other party was beaten into the ground, with only his head exposed, and she spoke to expose the great priest's plan.

It's not that this great priest has a problem with his brain and wants to provoke the Immortal Mountain.

It's just that whether it's embezzlement or price-cutting, if it succeeds, won't he be able to make a fortune?

If he succeeds, it's all his own benefit. If he fails, it's the tool Wu Zong and the Zhongting official who will take the blame, and he can move forward and backward freely.

The only thing I didn't expect was that Juqin had no good feelings towards Zhongting because of the Lieyang Sect.

This included the two great priests who watched the Lieyang Sect perish without issuing any warnings.

You know, these two great priests were able to break through the Wu Zun, and they had daily support from the royal family, but they also received a lot of guidance from the Lieyang Sect.

The Lieyang Sect did it conveniently, but didn't think of relying on them to save their lives.

It was just a precaution, and it would be good if it could play a little role in an emergency. In the end, this investment was still fed to the ungrateful wolf.

However, the two great priests were really like clay Buddhas, and their existence was their greatest significance.

So Zhao Heng didn't ask them to participate in the action of destroying the Lieyang Sect, and they couldn't even be said to have known about it and not reported it.

The eldest lady is not a cruel and bloodthirsty person, so these two people have been living in peace until now.

However, this does not prevent Juqin from beating them.

In fact, Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju have the same attitude and do not mind fighting them one by one.

If they do not admit their weakness and want to fight to the death, then they will be beaten to death.

The eldest lady cannot do it, but they can, otherwise what is the point of being a personal maid.

Facts have proved that the chief priest is really a coward.

After finding that his strength was crushed by Juqin, he kept admitting his mistakes after being stuck in the pit.

Even if there was a chance to fight for his life at that time, he only dared to defend with all his strength and never fought back at all.

Juqin suddenly felt bored.

Even if this kind of person has the strength of a martial master, he is just eating and waiting to die, and will not act rashly if there is a little danger.

Being beaten by her is purely an unexpected factor of personal grudges.

If they really knew that the eldest lady was in Taiping City, these two old guys would probably not approach Taiping City within a thousand miles.

After convincing people with "reason", the transaction between Zhongting and Xihuang and Taiping City was easily reached.

After all, Juqin alone had the power to rush into the Zhongting Palace and beat up the two great priests.

Taiping City was a newly rising power and had nothing to do with the royal family.

But they never showed any intention of coercion and only did legitimate transactions. Their character was much better than the two great priests.

Of course, they didn't know that the eldest lady and Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju actually thought about "taking" directly.

But Gu Ke was very clear-headed - monopoly was actually faster than robbery.

Robbery required finding the target, launching the attack, and transporting the spoils before the benefits could be pocketed.

And monopoly only needed to release the news, and the four countries in the court would collect everything and send it to him, begging him to accept it.

After a successful transaction, they will desperately collect more monster corpses and strive for more transactions.

What does sustainable depletion mean? No, it means sustainable development? That's it.

Over the past two years, most of Yiting Siguo's inventory has been emptied, allowing Gu Ke to harvest more than 12 million soul sources.

Except for Bei Desert, the other four families probably still have some high-level magic crystals and blood cores in their hands, which should be worth three to five million soul sources.

But when it comes to a specific company, the atrium with the largest inventory probably has about two to three million.

This number was much higher than Gu Ke's initial expectation.

Most of this extra part is the harvest of the Three Kingdoms hunting monsters in a few years.

Just for the sake of the eight-digit soul source and the coupons, he should be satisfied with One Court and Four Kingdoms.

Thanks to their efforts, the roadside stall has reached level 13, and the soul source is not far away from reaching level 14. It will take about another year to accumulate it.

The Wuxiang Sutra continued to climb crazily and was close to level 7000, which was one of his greatest confidences in dealing with monsters.

Even the eldest lady, whose strength has rapidly improved again after being promoted to the Martial Spirit Realm, still has to be defeated in front of him.

In addition, he discovered that the skyrocketing spiritual thoughts were able to condense a second real void body.

Valley Bay

Since then, three-thread operation has become possible, and efforts are being made to make it routine.

Otherwise, with just his true body and a void body, he would really feel a little busy.

The one-hour projected tea time every day at the eldest lady's side is nothing, but there are Salanzhu and Xiao Man competing for his free time in the cave.

Secondly, Xiao Ping'er rarely said a word, but quietly occupied a long time before dawn.

Until the "birth" of three-threaded operation, everything was no longer a problem.

Anyway, the only one who really needs his help in cultivation is Xiao Man, so he won't be in a hurry.

In addition, there is a series of good news, which is that more foundations of the cave are taking shape and entering the transformation stage.

Among them, the statue of Shennong in Xiongjia Town was erected in the 499th year of the Great War, and it took more than 20 years to take shape. It can be called the most "stable" one in terms of direct line strength.

However, it was just for Xiaoman's sake, so Gu Ke didn't expect them to put in much effort.

Now, Father Xiong and Xiong Da are stuck in the second and sixth rotations, keeping pace with their little sister Xiong Xiaoxiao. The feeling is quite complicated.

Fortunately, my wife, Xiong Wangshi, and my second brother have been promoted to Wuzong, which is enough to keep the whole family safe.

The foundation of the cave abode in Xiongjia Town has taken initial shape, and there is still some time before the cave abode is established.

Xiaoman could only observe Lao Xiong's family in Xiongjia Town through spiritual projection.

She was quite happy to see her father and mother, Xiong Da Xiong Er, who looked younger and stronger than before.

Only when she saw the grown-up Xiong Xiaoxiao hugging Xiong Wangshi and acting coquettishly, she was silent for a long time and depressed while holding Gu Ke for a long time.

He could only patiently guide them when they were alone.

Xiao Man then murmured what was in his heart: "They have a little sister who is more obedient and cute than I was before. They will definitely not miss me anymore."

Hearing this, Gu Ke couldn't laugh or cry: The little girl was really jealous this time, but it turned out that it was because her younger sister had "replaced" her former family status.

He had no choice but to take her to Bihai Cave Mansion to enjoy the night view together.

The wind blows across the pine trees, and the moon shines on the mountains. In a moment, you can see the water covering the surrounding areas, clouds and strange peaks, the moonlight scattering silver light, and the beautiful and red mountains.

After a few nights of watching the scenery, he promised her to go back to visit relatives when she had the chance, and this trouble would be over.

Xiao Ping'er's side is not that complicated.

Langtao Village, where her cousin Wang Maimai lives, has experienced many setbacks and experienced several crises, which affected its expansion momentum.

The foundation of Dongfu has not yet been formed, and it is much worse than Xiongjia Town.

Fortunately, Xiao Ping'er's cousin Wang Maimai has been promoted to Wuzong. Her husband and son are stuck in the second and sixth rounds, but they are not weak.

Whether Langtao Village develops smoothly or not has little impact on the family's safety, and there is no need for Gu Ke to take action personally.

The unexpected joy is still in the Northern Desert.

The War King's Hall was only built two years ago in Beimo City. Inside, a relief image of the War King was enshrined and turned into the foundation of a cave abode.

The base material for this relief is a piece of iron wood produced in Cave Mansion in the Northern Desert.

That night, Gu Ke came in the role of the King of War and activated the magical power of Sealing Heaven and Zhenyue within the three cities of the Northern Desert. Countless golden figures descended from the sky to suppress the group of strange creatures.

Although a large number of people and troops in the Northern Desert could not understand it, they were greatly shocked.

The foundation of the magical power of Sealing Heaven and Zhenyue is the harmony between heaven and man. It has a strange reaction with the gratitude and respect of the people in the Northern Desert. Unknowingly, it condensed on a certain piece of iron wood to form a relief sculpture of the King of War. picture.

After that night, a sincere person discovered this iron and wood relief, and saw it as if the King of War had reappeared in front of him.

Soon this magical ironwood relief was sent to the newly completed War King's Palace, and was respected by a large number of people and troops in the Northern Desert.

Without him, the sound and light effects of the King of War were turned on extremely high that night, and the suppressive effect was personally experienced by the army - it was really satisfying to kill those strange things that were stunned in place like fools, and they were given a lot of rewards afterwards. .

Also using the magical power of Sealing Heaven and Zhenyue, the time Emperor Wenzong opened a military academy on Lanwan Island only involved hundreds of thousands of people, most of whom were not martial artists.

The King of War opened his army in the three cities of the Northern Desert.

In recent years, Su Yulou has shrunk his defense lines and gathered manpower. The large and small cities in the three-city area have a population of tens of millions, and the number of warriors accounts for the highest proportion in Dawu.

In just one battle, the King of War gained a large number of high-quality and sincere followers, second only to the ancestor Shennong who had been focusing on building reputation for more than 20 years.

Not only that, because of the large number and high quality of sincere people, the transformation speed of the cave foundation in Beimo City is the fastest.

After the foundation of the cave is initially formed, it takes one or two years for the transformation to be completed and the cave to be opened in Bihai City and Taiping City.

It only takes a few months in Beimo City, and it is almost completed now.

In this way, the corpses of strange creatures obtained in Beimo City in the future can be exchanged for Xianshan materials on the spot without being transported through Taiping City.

Anyway, the price of goods in Beimo is very low, and Taiping City actually does not make much money. Every time, it needs to send out one of the plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum to escort.

Otherwise, with the value of Xianshan materials, a dozen martial arts masters may not be able to keep it.

In addition, the soul sources provided by high-quality sincere people in Beimo on a daily basis are also extremely amazing. Now there are more than a thousand per day, nearly half a million a year.

The sincere people in the other three countries add up to just over one million per year.

One family is better than four families, and the actual effect is one is two.

It was not in vain that Gu Ke had been investing a large amount of resources in the North Desert. It has only been a few years since the "continuous output" began.

However, the peaceful days of the previous few years ended here.

At noon, the summer sun was high overhead. Gu Ke stood on the top of Yulong Peak, looking towards the far north.

Suddenly, a series of subtle tremors came from the ground, and the branches swayed gently.

The animals in the livestock farm trembled all over, lying on the ground and dared not move.

The fish, shrimps and crabs in the water also retreated into the mud and nests, trying to avoid the crisis in the dark.

The scorching sun above the head can make people peel off in half a day, but now it has dimmed in the mist that seems to be there and not there.

The weak sunlight reflected a faint crimson in the mist, which was somewhat similar to the crimson moon that night.

This is just a situation that ordinary people can see.

Although it is weird, it is not to the extent of being scared silly.

In Gu Ke's mind, and in the perception of Saranzhu's multiple cave "bodies", Dawu at this moment is in a completely different situation.

The Eternal Ice Peak is constantly collapsing in the vibration, and the two large gaps in the south and north are expanding wildly.

At the same time, many parts of the ice peak are also collapsing, and hundreds of new cracks of various sizes are forming.

The only thing to be thankful for is that their size is far less than the two earliest collapses in the north and south.

Unfortunately, these cracks are gushing out alien souls.

The excessive amount of alien souls is like a bottle of ink thrown into a basin of water, which triggered the visible phenomenon of mist and red sun.

Gu Ke and Saranzhu's perception is clearer, and the huge waves stirred up by the souls are constantly impacting and affecting everything in Dawu.

Gu Ke even felt that he heard the wailing of this world, as if a weak woman was about to have her underwear torn and was crying desperately.

Even though he had thought about everything that might happen, including the situation in front of him, he couldn't help but look solemn, and murmured softly: "Don't worry, this is just the beginning."

"This time I will play slowly with you, until the end, to see who loses all their underwear."

Xiao Man also had a serious face, and was startled when he heard the words: "Ah, Lao Gu, who do you want to see without underwear?"
