Celestial Immortal

Chapter 948

One hundred thousand soldiers
Hearing this at first, Mr. Ming Jing was startled, it was the first time he heard such a bold and reckless person, in front of him, dare to ask for a hundred thousand soldiers.

In fact, back then, as the prince heir, he was cultivating confidantes and promoting talents in the army. Back then, he had discussed with Master Yulou and Yuxuzi, intending to allow Chu Chen, who had inherited the military tradition, to train in the army and become a commander in the army, leading troops to fight .

However, since Chu Chenzhi was not here, he did not force it.

This time, the old matter was brought up again, which surprised Mr. Ming Jing.

Not to mention, Chu Chen didn't intend to command an army of one hundred thousand, but "support one hundred thousand troops".

The two are "differing from each other". Those who command a hundred thousand soldiers are imperial soldiers and horses, and are under the supervision of the Celestial Court, while "supporting a hundred thousand soldiers" is to support their own private soldiers.

With [-] soldiers and horses, and a frontier land, it is definitely the ambition of a separate party.

If it was an ordinary king and minister, after hearing this, he would immediately fly into a rage and fly into a rage.

However, Mr. Ming Jing is obviously not an ordinary emperor, and he also knows Chu Chen. After being slightly surprised, he looked at Chu Chen, guessed something, and said:
"Ling Xiao, do you want to raise one hundred thousand ghost soldiers and ghost generals?"

Mr. Mingjing knew Chu Chen quite well, he knew that he had learned the Guigu military art, and he had extraordinary attainments in training soldiers and generals, and he was very capable of soldiers and horses.

"Mister is wise!"

Chu Chen cupped his hands, feeling a little uneasy.

Raising ghost soldiers and ghost generals is two different things from separatist regime and holding heavy soldiers privately.

Ghosts are not things in the world, and they cannot affect the fate of the country, nor can they shake the rule and fate of the Dachang Celestial Dynasty.

In fact, the Celestial Court does not prohibit mages from raising soldiers and horses. To a certain extent, it also encourages monks who are good at soldiers and horses to raise soldiers and horses, cultivate Yin soldiers and generals, supplement the strength of the Celestial Dynasty, and reduce the influence of the gods of the yang world. pressure.

For example, when Chu Chen was in Xin'an County, Guangping County, the local city god encouraged him to raise more soldiers and horses, wishing that he could recruit hundreds of soldiers and horses in one go.

But, recruiting [-] soldiers and horses in one go is another matter.

Not to mention one hundred thousand soldiers and horses, even if you raise ten thousand soldiers and horses privately, you need to get the permission of the Celestial Court. If you raise them privately, it is "conspiracy to commit crimes", and the problem will be serious.

Of course, this is not without precedent.

Some of the top immortal sects and private soldiers in the top gods' mansions also have tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses.

For example, the holy land of military strategists "Shuilian Cave, the main vein of Guigu", has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under its command. In addition to the soldiers and horses of the major branches, the number of soldiers and horses has already exceeded [-].

For another example, in the Five Sacred Mountains Divine Mansion, it is not uncommon for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses to be used in the top-level divine mansions above the third rank in various places.

In other words, Chu Chen's "request" is not a precedent. Many top sects and top forces have precedents for raising [-] soldiers and horses.

The only difference is that his family has a deep background and powerful influence, and the Celestial Court only allowed him to acquiesce, while Chu Chen and Lingshan School are far behind in this regard.

This is also the reason why Chu Chen said it was an "unfeeling request".

Sure enough, Mr. Ming Jing saw that this request was true, and shook his head with a smile:
"This matter is not so simple, it is difficult to handle."

Chu Chen was taken aback.

Although Mr. Mingjing didn't agree, he didn't refuse outright either.

"It's not easy" doesn't mean it can't be done.

This made him see hope, he was overjoyed, and bowed his hands:
"Please also give pointers, sir."

"If the secret biography of the great day Tathagata you presented is true, it doesn't matter if you are allowed to raise a hundred thousand soldiers and horses!"

When Mr. Ming Jing said this, he changed the topic and said:

"It's just that, although I am the Son of Heaven and the Supreme Being in the world, I can't resolve it with a single word when it comes to military matters. There are many obstacles in all aspects, so don't have too much hope."

"Thank you sir for fulfilling!"

Chu Chen was overjoyed.

He naturally knows the embarrassment of Mr. Ming Jing. Those top sects and forces with "a hundred thousand soldiers" are all created by various historical factors. His offer of the secret inheritance of the Buddha is enough, but whether it can be achieved is another matter. , there is no small resistance in all aspects.

This is the difficulty of Chu Chen's "request".

However, now that Mr. Ming Jing has spoken, things are different.

Mr. Mingjing kept saying that he couldn't "settle it with one word", but Mr. Dabao has been in charge of the artifact for more than ten years, and he has long controlled it firmly.

As long as he agrees, the matter will basically be done.

Of course, no high-ranking person will agree with it.

On the one hand, there is room to avoid embarrassing situations when an accident occurs, on the other hand, it shows the difficulty of things and wins people's hearts better.

"No need to be polite."

Seeing that Chu Chen was so grateful, Mr. Ming Jing may have thought of something, and added:
"Ling Xiao, as I said earlier, you can raise hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, but in the future, the soldiers and horses cannot be transferred to the Lingshan faction to inherit, and the right to raise soldiers cannot be inherited to future generations. objection!"

Chu Chen nodded slightly, quite pleased.

He wants to raise [-] soldiers and horses for his "qualification" to defend the blessed land, not to pass it down from generation to generation like some top forces for thousands of years.

The "right to raise soldiers" that is not inherited will face much less resistance.

After all, he will ascend sooner or later, leaving no hidden dangers, and the Celestial Court will not suffer from this exchange.

"I have no objection."

"Great!"

Lingshan School, Qingchen Cave Mansion.

"Wonderful!"

Chu Chen was playing with the [Golden Dragon Token] in his hand, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

This time, his avatar projected tens of thousands of miles into the imperial capital, and met with Mr. Ming Jing, and gained a lot.

In exchange for the "qualification" to raise one hundred thousand troops with the "Da Ri Tathagata's secret true biography", his first step of raising one hundred thousand heavenly soldiers to guard Dongtian Paradise is considered successful. Next, he can start recruiting soldiers and raising soldiers and horses.

It's hard to say whether this business will make a profit or a loss if it is placed on others, but if it falls on Chu Chen, it must be a profit.

A blessed place in the cave, a chance to become a fairy, is worth all he has.

In addition, in addition to the "Secret Inheritance of the Great Sun Tathagata", Chu Chen also "sold the stolen goods" to the Xianting Treasure House along with the ten magic weapons seized from the [Great King Kong Temple].

Mr. Ming Jing summoned the supervisor of Xianting Treasure House and asked the two to negotiate.

After some bargaining, Chu Chen packaged and sold all the ten pieces of Buddhist esoteric magic treasures at a price of 2000 million jade coins and ten copies of five elements' rare treasures to Xianting.

He was at a small loss for this transaction, the transaction price was only [-]% of the market price, and the Xianting Treasure House was not paid in one lump sum, but in five years, in batches of jade money, natural materials and earth treasures.

But, Chu Chen's transaction was very straightforward.

After all, this treasure is not easy to "sell stolen goods", and Xianting Treasure House can eat it in one bite, even if the discount is serious, he is happy to save trouble.

"Accidentally, I got out of the limelight again."

Chu Chen replayed the game, feeling a little bit emotional and looking forward to it.

This time, he destroyed the [Great King Kong Temple] and "showed his merits" in front of Mr. Ming Jing, showing his magical powers. Although Mr. Ming didn't say anything, he still looked at him differently in the follow-up conversation.

In addition, he asked for one hundred thousand soldiers in the follow-up, which to some extent also revealed the information of his military master's supernatural powers.

He was already "simple in the emperor's heart", and now his sharpness and strength are gradually revealed, which is extremely beneficial to his next promotion.

For the promotion of Xianting, there is a small transfer in three years and a major transfer in five years.

Before I knew it, more than two years had passed.

It is still very hopeful that Chu Chen will be transferred to the position of third-rank immortal in the future. It is unreasonable for him to "idle" the latent cultivation.

His promotion to the State Taoist Institute and the State Supervisory Council had great hopes. Now that he has shown his strength, Mr. Ming Jing must be more daring in employing people.

"The governor of the state and the head of the Demon Academy dare not think about it. It would be quite good to be able to serve as the head of the mountain and the supervisor of the state in a state."

Chu Chen couldn't help but secretly look forward to it.

He currently has [-] meritorious deeds, far away from [-] meritorious deeds, and he is still far away from practicing Lei Zu's top thunder method supernatural power.

If you can hold the position of a decent immortal, it will be much easier to achieve the goal of [-] meritorious deeds.

For the next two days, Chu Chen was counting the loot and harvest, immersed in small surprises every day.

As the saying goes, it is better to be alone than to be happy.

Master Xu Ping Taoist vetoed Chu Chen's donation to the sect and supported the Lingshan School, but well, Chu Chen didn't really eat alone.

He is currently planning to raise tens of thousands or even a hundred thousand soldiers and horses. It is indeed a time when he is short of money and treasures, but he is short of big money and not short of small money.

While counting the treasures, he wandered around the Lingshan School from time to time, and he acted generously, rewarding the disciples of the Lingshan School with large sums of money.

As long as the disciples of the Lingshan School performed well and had potential, he would reward them with large sums of money, and he would also reward them for making a little progress.

Whether it is an old Lingshan disciple or a new Lingshan disciple, all are treated equally and rewarded.

After a few days, the entire Lingshan sect disciples were more or less rewarded by Chu Chen, which greatly increased his prestige as the "young master", and everyone praised the young master for his grandeur.

Of course, apart from the disciples of the Lingshan School, Chu Chen did not forget to respect his master, uncle, master, uncle and uncle.

This time, Master Xu Pingdao did not refuse Chu Chen's filial piety.

After some rewards and filial piety, Chu Chen spent millions of jade coins, which was just a drizzle to him right now.

Chu Chen finally took stock of the gains. All kinds of treasures were added up, including the magic weapon sold to Xianting Treasure at a discount. His net worth jumped to 4000 million jade coins.

This is an astonishing amount of wealth, and most of the great sects of immortal sects would not be able to make up such an astonishing amount.

However, if this money is used to recruit soldiers and horses, it is nothing.

Especially high-level soldiers and horses, the value is extremely high.

Previously, Chu Chen used the [Dixin Seal] to go to Yincao Difu to meet Guan Shengdijun's incarnation god in Yincao Fengdu [Marshal Fengdulang Lingguan], recruited more than 2000 elite soldiers from Lord Guan, and spent more than 1000 million jade coins.

To recruit fourth-rank soldiers and horses, one is [-] jade coins, and to recruit [-] soldiers and horses, that is one billion jade coins.

The money in Chu Chen's hands seemed like a drop in the bucket, not to mention feeding, he couldn't afford to recruit.

Even if it is a fifth-rank soldier and horse, it will cost five thousand jade coins, and he can't afford to recruit it.

Of course, Chu Chen didn't intend to become fat all at once.

One hundred thousand third-rank and fourth-rank heavenly soldiers cost too much, and he dared not even think about it. Even the fifth-rank soldiers and horses, he still has some pressure. The best situation is to recruit sixth-rank soldiers and horses.

Last time, he learned that the sixth-grade soldiers and horses can be recruited for only two thousand jade coins, which cost much less, so he can afford to recruit them.

After all, the recruitment of soldiers and horses is not fixed. If they are trained well in the future, they are expected to be promoted.

In the past, Chu Chen urgently needed to improve his strength and didn't want to be distracted from training troops, so he directly recruited fourth-rank soldiers and horses. Now, he has the time to figure it out slowly, and recruiting sixth-rank soldiers and horses is the best choice.

Besides, Chu Chen didn't plan to recruit [-] soldiers at once.

He himself has three thousand elites, and he also has [Heavenly Heart General Summoner], he can temporarily call six thousand soldiers and horses at present, and he can call up a maximum of twelve thousand soldiers and horses in the future, which can be regarded as a boost.

In other words, he only needs to recruit [-] soldiers and horses.

For the first phase of recruiting soldiers and horses, he only intends to recruit [-] soldiers and horses first, and keep a sum of money in his hands, which will be used to raise soldiers and horses later, so as not to be too stressful.

After Chu Chen calculated carefully, he felt more and more interesting, and his mood suddenly became clear.

Speaking of it, [Qingchen Cave Sky] was indeed a great fortune, but in the dark, he and Qingying were put under tremendous pressure, not to mention crushing them, at least it made them a little breathless.

In the past, no matter what the two faced, they relied on Lord Long and Xianting. They had a backing, and they didn't have so much to worry about.

But right now, these pressures can only be borne by themselves. Telling the matter to Long Jun and Longling Empress will not help. Dust Cave Sky].

If the two elders intervene forcefully, they may encounter accidents because of this.

Therefore, Chu Chen and Qingying chose to take it on themselves, and Qingying herself, in order to share the pressure, even chose to go out to practice in order to break through the realm.
Another two days passed.

Mr. Ming Jing's secret decree did not exceed Chu Chen's expectation, it came as scheduled, even earlier than he imagined.

"Right now, everything is ready, and the only thing we need is Dongfeng. We are waiting for the response from the Fengdu Underworld."

After receiving the imperial decree from the envoy of Xianting, Chu Chen couldn't help being in a good mood.

One hundred thousand flags beheaded Yama!
If he holds a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers in his hands, and has achieved success in Taoism and practice, not to mention beheading Yama, but guarding the blessed land of the cave, there will be absolutely no problem.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Congratulations senior brother, congratulations senior brother!"

Little Guizai has a great ability to read words and expressions, and he can see that his senior brother is really happy. Although he didn't understand what happened, he came out to congratulate him at the first time.

And, this time, the little ghost looked pitiful, and tears were about to come out:
"Brother, you have rewarded all the disciples of the Lingshan Sect, but you have not rewarded me"

"Hahaha!"

Seeing the little ghost's aggrieved look, Chu Chen felt better. He did not reward the little ghost, so it was a lesson for him.

However, he is not a stingy person. Now that the fire is almost ready, he immediately nodded slightly, took out a cloth bag from his sleeve, and threw it to the little devil:
"Okay, brother, how can I forget you, here is the top spiritual incense treasured by [Great King Kong Temple], I reward you."

"Thank you, brother!"

The little ghost boy was overjoyed: "Hee hee hee~ I knew that brother loves me and won't forget me."

This time, the little ghost was completely satisfied, and the grievance in his heart disappeared without a trace. He arched his hands and said auspicious words:
"Brother is so generous, you are so generous, everything will go well, everything will go well."

"You brat!"

Chu Chen smiled helplessly and ignored the little devil.

There was no other reason, he had a faint feeling, and he took out the bracelet from the Immortal Mansion, and the [Earth Letter Seal] appeared in his hand.

"There is news from Fengdu Difu."

Chu Chen couldn't help but look forward to it, and his mind sank.

Not long after, the smile on his face disappeared, and then he looked depressed, and his eyes fell on the little devil.

The little ghost was stunned: "Brother, what do you think I am doing, I haven't made any mistakes recently."

Chu Chen shook his head and asked, "Did you wish me all the best?"

The little ghost nodded.

"You crow mouth!"

Little devil: "o((⊙﹏⊙))o"
