Rebuilding the Xiuxian family

If the vassal forces are recruited, not only will they have to pay a spiritual object at the beginning, but they will also have to give certain compensation if they make great sacrifices or suffer losses. This is not cost-effective for the Dongyuan Sect.

It is impossible to send away the vassal forces with just a few promises like the previous war between the two camps, right? !

If the Dongyuan Sect really does this, it will really be demoralizing. Not to mention that no forces may be willing to join them in the future, and the existing vassals may even have plans to defect.

"Indeed, recruiting vassal forces is not cost-effective. It is better to let those casual cultivators work harder, and at most they will pay a spiritual object."

If casual cultivators die at the hands of the water monster, no matter how many die, the Dongyuan Sect does not need to pay the price. From this aspect, it can save a lot of spiritual objects.

The Dongyuan Sect has a rich family background and a large business, but the expenditure is also very large. Any savings are a little bit.

And as mentioned before, if the sea clan launches an attack, the attacked forces will definitely take action. After all, the spiritual islands have been developed for so many years, and it is a period of great harvest. If they are taken away by the sea clan, it is equivalent to burning all the efforts made in the previous years.

Therefore, the requirements of the Dongyuan Sect are not high, as long as they can defend their own territory.

After discussing the strategy, the Dongyuan Sect began to act.

The preparations for the war, the recruitment of scattered cultivators, and the notification of various vassal forces were carried out at the same time.

Among them, the notification of various forces was completed in just five days!

You must know that the territory of the Dongyuan Sect is millions of miles large. If it includes the sea area, it will be even more vast. It took such a short time to notify everything in place, which shows how strong the control of the Dongyuan Sect over its territory is!

As one of them, the Li family naturally received reminders and requests from the Dongyuan Sect.

Remind the sea clan of the possible actions to be taken next, and ask the Li family to defend the territory and not be taken away by the sea clan.

"Is this the view of the Dongyuan Sect?" Da Qing frowned.

He actually had some doubts about the true movements of the sea clan!

Although it is a tacit rule that higher-level creatures do not attack lower-level creatures, there are many prerequisites. For example, if a certain combined demon cultivator kills a large number of low-level cultivators and no conclusive evidence is found, it does not count even if there is great suspicion.

In fact, to put it bluntly, this unspoken rule is not actually a tacit agreement established to protect low-level creatures, but to protect those young people with good backgrounds and great potential.

Because they have a lot of life-saving spiritual objects and means in their hands, and they can also let their backers see who killed them.

In the war, the binding force of this unspoken rule is not very strong.

In other words, under the condition that the two sides do not have equal strength, this unspoken rule cannot actually restrain the stronger party.

Because as long as they act cleanly and neatly after taking action, and are not caught by others afterwards, it is not considered to have violated the unspoken rule!

And now, for various considerations, the Dongyuan faction has chosen a more stable way and has no intention of taking the initiative to attack.

Once the sea clan knows this, they will probably secretly send some high-level water monsters to take action. They don't need too many. As long as they can occupy a part of the sea area, the sea clan will break the defense line of the cultivators, and it will be more convenient to take action in the future, nibbling away step by step and taking back more sea areas.

After listening to Da Qing's concerns, Jiang Fengwu also felt that his speculation was more reliable. The response of the Dongyuan Sect was too weak and handed over the initiative.

"But the family is too weak now and has no say at all, so don't think too much now, and try your best to keep Wanling Island."

Da Qing sighed helplessly and nodded in the end. As Jiang Fengwu said, they can't control the overall situation. All they can do is to protect their own interests.

Besides, the Dongyuan Sect is not stupid. If the next move of the sea clan is really what Da Qing thinks, then they will definitely react.

"By the way, Wanling Island is a spiritual stone vein. Has it been mined?" Jiang Fengwu asked in a voice transmission.

If the spirit stone mine is mined out, if it really comes to the point of abandoning Wanling Island, mining clean spirit stone mines can at least make up for some of the family's losses.

"There is still the most core mineral source left. The family's arrangement is to seal the vein for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, and try to breed a new small spirit stone mine."

This method is very common. Any force that controls the mineral vein with mineral sources will do this, and the success rate is very high, but it takes too long.

Jiang Fengwu understood and said: "Next, we will be prepared to resist the powerful offensive of the sea clan, and I will also speed up the improvement of the island protection formation."

"Okay, then it will be hard for you, sister-in-law Jiu."

After discussing it, the two went to work separately.

Then all the clansmen on Wanling Island were busy, and at the same time, several clansmen were sent to tell the family about Daqing's guess and response, so that they could provide support and logistics.

——

In the deep sea, it should be a dark seabed, but now it is emitting all kinds of bright treasure light, and the luminous body is a crystal glazed palace covering a huge area.

In the palace, there are a large number of sea immortals and human immortals.

I don't know what they discussed, but to get so many fairyland water monsters together, there must be something very important.

"Dongyuan Sect didn't make any big moves? Do you think they are pretending, deliberately making it up to deceive people, or are they really just passively defending?"

"I think they are setting up a trap to lure us into it!"

"But the Dongyuan Sect has no action now. As long as we move fast enough, we can occupy some sea areas and defend them before they react. The monks will have nothing to do with us."

The two sides argued endlessly, and no one could convince the other. After some discussion, the choice was made.

"If you want to take back the offshore area from the monks, you must use some abnormal means and take a lot of risks." The dragon clan immortal said, interrupting the quarrel between the two parties.

And after it opened its mouth, the Sea Clan's decision had actually been made, because it was not only it, but also represented the strongest Dragon Clan.

"This method can only be used once! So should we consider occupying as many sea areas as possible before the Dongyuan faction reacts?"

"But in this way, our power is also dispersed. I still think we should avoid its edge first and wait until the first step is completed before proceeding to the second step."

After the brainstorming of a large number of fairyland water monsters, they have made a decision to hand it over to the sixth- and seventh-level water monsters below, who will be responsible for the attack while leading other water monsters to defend the occupied sea areas.

Time flew by.

On a cloudy day with light rain, the Sea Clan launched surprise attacks on several places!

It was no longer the beast tide that was all third- and fourth-order water monsters in the past. There were also a large number of fifth-order, sixth-order, and seventh-order water monsters. The monks were caught off guard and were beaten back. The most important thing was that they were beaten back. Yes, they lost the sea area they occupied.

"Hurry up!"

The moment the monks were driven away, the sea clan began to boil, and a large number of water monsters were dispatched to dismantle the islands on the sea, then crush them, or drag them directly into the deep sea, leaving no place for the monks to gain a foothold.

After a large number of monks fled, the news quickly spread to the ears of many forces as if it had grown wings.

"Sure enough! You guessed it right."

Jiang Fengwu rubbed his eyebrows with a headache and asked, "Then what should we do now?"

Although the sea area taken back by the Hai Clan is still some distance away from the Li family's Wanling Island, if you don't find a way to solve it, one day this fire will burn you.

"All we have to do now is wait!" Daqing said calmly.

Waiting for the Dongyuan faction to discuss new countermeasures; waiting for our family to send new tribesmen to participate in the war, as well as various strategic materials prepared during this period.

Because all they could do was accomplished.

"Damn it!"

"The Sea Clan actually used this method to rob the offshore area?"

Less than a few hours after the Sea Clan retook several islands, the Dongyuan Sect received the news, and all the fairyland were furious. Because of their previous mistakes in judgment, they were now in a huge passive position.

"We must not let the Sea Clan gain a foothold, otherwise they will take away a lot of territory in the offshore area! We must show our true strength to fight against them!"

At this point, there was nothing to discuss, and the situation was urgent. But half an hour later, the Dongyuan Sect flew out a series of spiritual ships, loaded with monks, and flew to the sea area occupied by the Sea Clan.

The Sea Clan acted simultaneously in the entire offshore area, so not only the Dongyuan Sect, but the remaining two fairyland forces also made quick strategies.

It seems that a new war between the two camps is about to begin again!

But at this time, a major event happened that shocked the entire Yuanling world and attracted the attention of all living beings in the world.

In comparison, the war that was about to break out seemed particularly insignificant. Neither side continued to invest more strength, but instead reduced the scale and intensity of the war.

——

But he said it was in the Zhang family.

"Clan Chief, some clan members have discovered traces of mining in the Qianzhong Mountains." A certain elder suddenly reported a major piece of news.

The head of the Zhang family didn’t find it too surprising. It was just a mineral vein. It’s not like the Zhang family didn’t have mines. Not to mention the mineral veins they already had, the Zhang family discovered several spiritual veins just after acquiring the Qianzhong Mountains. Of course, he didn’t find them. The first one is so surprising.

"Clan leader, do you know what kind of mineral vein this is?"

"have no idea."

"That's a seventh-level fine gold vein!"

snap——

When Patriarch Zhang, who was handling affairs, heard this, he dropped the magic pen in his hand. He stood up in disbelief and asked with excitement on his face: "Is what you said true?"

"How dare I lie about such an important matter." The elder told the location of the mineral vein.

Patriarch Zhang suddenly recalled the actions of the demon clan, and now he understood why the demon clan suddenly attacked the monks.

The demon clan must have discovered the mineral vein, but due to the poor location, they were worried about being discovered by the monks during mining, so they wanted to drive the monks away, but they were expelled instead.

And after so many years, he saw the light of day again and was discovered by the Zhang family.

The elder paused and said with a wry smile: "But there is a big problem now. Among the tribesmen who discovered this mineral vein, one of the monks who married into the family has disappeared."

"Damn it! I'm not a member of my own family, but I'm really pregnant!" Patriarch Zhang cursed to vent his anger, and quickly calmed down, thinking about how to deal with this matter.

The monk who escaped will definitely find a way to obtain huge benefits from other forces with the news about the adamantine veins, and he cannot succeed quickly.

Therefore, the Zhang family must seize this free time and secretly mine some fine gold.

It’s not that Patriarch Zhang doesn’t want to monopolize the fine gold veins. If the Zhang family can capture it, it will greatly improve the family’s strength! It will be more beneficial to him.

But there is no way, someone has already escaped with the news.

But what was unexpected was that the news would spread so quickly!

They had just entered the mine and had not yet mined the first rough stone when the monks arrived.

And this was only a few hours after Patriarch Zhang learned about the fine gold veins.

"That bastard didn't just publish the address, did he?" Patriarch Zhang cursed in his heart, looking at the monks opposite him with extremely ugly expressions.

In fact, Patriarch Zhang really misunderstood.

It wasn't the monk who got married who made the news public directly, but it was the handiwork of the demon clan!

The demon clan has placed some kind of special restriction at the entrance of the mine. As long as a living being enters the mine, those demon clan will know about it, and then they will directly disclose the news!

If the information was not made public, wouldn't all the fine gold be obtained by one family?

On the contrary, if the news is made public, it will attract the attention of all the creatures in the entire Yuanling Realm and muddy the situation. They may have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and get one or two more pieces of fine gold.

The monks who were the first to arrive at the mine were from a combined force in Wanzhu Prefecture. Their strength might not be as good as that of the Zhang family, but the gap was not that big.

If they started fighting at this time, they would be wasting this great opportunity to obtain fine gold. Therefore, through negotiation, the two parties reached an agreement on their goals.

For the time being, they will not attack each other, and each will look for gold according to his or her own abilities.

Both sides wasted no time and took action immediately.

However, forces from all sides swarmed in and reached the ore veins faster than everyone expected. The two forces did not have much time to mine fine gold.

"Adamantine veins..."

The Li family, who were also in the Qianzhong Mountains, naturally also knew the information about the mineral veins.

"Could it be true?"

At first, Li Xunda didn't believe the news because it was too strange!

How could such important information be leaked?

But with the arrival of a large number of creatures, not just monks, but also monsters and sea people, Li Xuanda's thoughts changed.

Then he told Li Zhirui the news immediately.

"It turns out to be an adamantine vein. No wonder we never saw the seventh-level monster during the battle." Li Zhirui suddenly realized.

If it were an adamantine vein, that would make sense!

The reason why the group of seventh-level monsters did not appear was probably because they were personally mining fine gold in the veins.
