Chapter 701: The Beginning of Terror

It is normal for Nan Xuan to have no money in his hands, although he has saved billions of net worth before, but that was a few decades ago, since Lin Xiao lost the industry in Zhongzhou, the wealth of the Heavenly Saint Sect has been reduced by half, and then opening businesses in Kunlun and Penglai is also a large investment, and it is only now that the cost can be recovered.

Then it is for the consumption required to prepare for the war, which is a huge amount of income, followed by the subsidy for the monk's breakthrough, Dao Gang breaks through the aura, and the aura breaks through the Divine Void Period, which not only requires the Lingming Pill and the Seven Spirits Pill, but also requires a lot of auxiliary pills, which are all large expenses.

There is also an additional expenditure that is needed to maintain the army, those disciples are preparing for war all year round, and they cannot obtain resources on their own, and the sect must subsidize them.

Then there is the expenditure of high-level disciples, Lingguang Monk 600,000 Xuanjing a year, and now there are more than 50 Lingguang Monks, which is the expenditure of 30 million, and among the Shenxuan period monks, Lin Xiao and Li Muxue did not take the money, but there are also Ye Nanyu, Bai Xixi, Bai Zichen, Zhang Qingxuan, A Qing, Xie Yunfei Six Shenxuan period, 2 million Xuanjing per year, not counting the income of their positions.

That is to say, the annual expenditure of high-level cultivators needs more than 40 million Xuanjing, and the annual income of the Heavenly Saint Sect is only worth 100 million, and the hundreds of Dao Gang, thousands of Purple Mansions and nearly 200,000 low-level disciples also need to be paid, and the night owl also needs to subsidize a part, and the Heavenly Saint Sect's financial resources are not enough, and they are all supported by the old foundation of the past.

"Boss, this is the expenditure of the sect in the past five years, you see, my old bones can't hold it"

"Nanxuan, don't worry, Kunlun and Penglai have begun to make profits, and it will get better slowly"

"I have read the information of Kunlun and Penglai, and now the prices of various materials have skyrocketed, and we are still hoarding resources, there is not much profit at all, it is still far from enough, if there is no other financial source, with the savings of the sect, it will last for another ten years at most."

"Ten years, there should be a large number of disciples sitting down by then, isn't it enough?"

"The head of the sect, all of them are low-level disciples, and we are accepting more and more disciples, and we can't offset them at all."

Nan Xuan replied, back then, Lin Xiao recruited mortal disciples on a large scale, and the number of sects skyrocketed from 100,000 to 200,000, and that group of disciples has now entered the stage of old age, and there are one or two thousand people sitting every year, which is true, but with the implementation of the bloodline improvement plan, there are more and more disciples with spiritual roots under the command of the Heavenly Saint Sect, and the number of people recruited by the sect is not less than that of sitting down, and it is not even enough to offset.

"So what do you think it should be?"

"Let the branch transfuse blood, defend the country, make the country, Fenghuo Island, Dongzhou, a family of two million Xuanjing every year, and it can last for another twenty years"

"No, Weiguo is also a member of the Nanzhou Alliance now, and he also has to prepare for war, which makes the country extremely poor, it is just a stronghold for the night owl to wash his identity, and he doesn't have much financial resources, Dongzhou has only been developing for decades, and it is in the midst of rapid development, if you let them transfuse blood at this time, it will do more harm than good, and the Wind and Fire Island side can consider it"

Lin Xiao shook his head, the four branches, the three branches do not have the ability to transfuse blood to the sect, the only capable is Wind and Fire Island, after hundreds of years of development, the island within a radius of four thousand miles has been almost developed, the soldiers are strong and strong, Li Jianyan has the idea of expanding the territory.

However, Lin Xiao refused, as long as Wind and Fire Island maintains the status quo for the time being, it is not a good thing to be strong and weak, and the branches are too strong, what Lin Xiao needs is the financial resources and blood transfusion ability of Wind and Fire Island.

"Nanxuan, did you arrange for someone to go over to Wind and Fire Island?"

"It's arranged, according to the will of the boss, carry out the strategy of vacating the cage for birds, 50,000 people on Wind and Fire Island, of which 20,000 are sent by us here, and they will not be allowed to make a big rebellion, Li Jianyan has no such tendency for the time being"

"That's good, there must be no problems on the branch side, especially Wind and Fire Island, this may be a way out for us"

Lin Xiao nodded, the strong and weak branches, and the cage for birds were all planned by him, and Nan Xuan personally implemented it, in order not to let the branch have problems, for the Five Continents Alliance, Lin Xiao has always firmly believed that he can win, but as the head of a faction, he must not be blind, there must be a way out.

"Master, according to the financial resources of Wind and Fire Island, a maximum of three million Xuanjing will be transfused to us every year, which will already damage their interests, it is still not enough."

"Nanxuan, what else can you do?"

"There is one"

"It's okay to be straight"

"War, such as today, the Holy Sect includes the Martial Kingdom, and the financial resources of the Martial Kingdom's large factories have accounted for a considerable proportion, but now that there is no war, the consumption of the Dan Talisman Array we produce is very small, and all the sects are hoarding resources, causing the price to skyrocket, and the profits will be even lower after the materials rise.

Therefore, the war is our best way to get rich, and the three branches are assembled in Chen Qing Valley, if we go back to the time of the Dongzhou War, we can have a net profit of four or five billion yuan a year, and we occupy thirty percent of the ·····."

"Stop, Nanxuan, tell me, is this your personal idea, or the idea of each sect"

Lin Xiao's face instantly became gloomy, and he thought of a terrible word, that is, capital, capital is a double-edged sword, but Lin Xiao knows that if capital is not controlled, it will become a demon who has escaped from the cage.

Now Nan Xuan dares to start a small war, but when his appetite is getting bigger and bigger, he dares to provoke a big war with the Immortal Alliance, and the power of capital is gradually awakening, which is an extremely terrible thing.

"I have my idea, and I also have the meaning of each sect, the profits of the Wuguo Great Factory have decreased in recent years, and the expenses of each sect have increased, and they have all found that only war can make a profit, especially the war with demon beasts, we can get a lot of cheap materials, Neidan, fur, bone and blood, we can all use it"

"I know, but Nan Xuan knows, I have an agreement with Yu Jiaolong"

"Master, I know that I don't want to start a large-scale war, I just want to hunt more low-level demon beasts and conduct a limited war."

"Then let me ask you, if this limited war can't satisfy your appetite, the big factory can now earn three or five billion a year to satisfy your appetite, then when you need one billion and eight billion, when you need ten billion billion, is it going to be a decisive battle with the Immortal Alliance?"

"This, boss, I don't know what you're worried about, the current situation is that the more it drags on, the less advantage our Five Continents Alliance will have, and a quick victory is the right way."

"Who doesn't know that a quick battle is the right way, but have you thought about the overall situation, why our human race can overwhelm the demon race, it is because our human race's hundreds of millions of monks are united, if we start a war with the Immortal Alliance, it is impossible to stop without dying one or two million people, no matter which side wins, it is a miserable victory, what to do when the demon clan invades, who will resist, when the resources are exhausted, what to use to resist the demon clan"

Lin Xiao said coldly, no one knows how big the immortal cultivation world is, but the demon clan is strength is actually stronger than the human race, the reason why the human race has won many victories is because the human race is united, every time a catastrophe occurs, there are human heroes or human emperors are born, leading the human race to fight against the demon race, and there is the depth of Zhongzhou, so the demon clan is powerless to fight back, once the war with the immortal alliance breaks out, all the advantages will be lost, and the human race will usher in an unprecedented disaster.

"This..."

Nan Xuan didn't know how to answer, he admitted that Lin Xiao's words had some truth, but he also had a feeling of unfounded worry.

"Don't mention this matter again, tell all the sects that working hard is the right way, don't think about these crooked ways"

Lin Xiao's voice was very cold, and there was even a hint of killing intent, Lin Xiao didn't dare to let this kind of thing happen, the capital had a profit of three hundred percent, and dared to trample on any rules, this was not a joke, once it was laissez-faire, the immortal cultivation world could be destroyed in Lin Xiao's hands.

"Okay, I know, try your best, Li Laozu is going to call back, she is not here, and many of the pills in the sect have no way to maximize their benefits."

Nan Xuan nodded, although he didn't know why Lin Xiao was so angry, but he wouldn't disobey Lin Xiao's approach, it turned out that Lin Xiao's choices were rarely wrong, and he should have listened to them.

"Give me the high-grade elixir materials that need to be refined, and I'll arrange them."

Lin Xiao replied, Li Muxue's side is too far, to send it to the south, from Penglai all the way south along the coastline of the East China Sea, before it can be sent to Qingyang Sect, Lin Xiao decided to trouble Lan Lingyu, her alchemy is no worse than Li Muxue, and she is her own person.

"Okay, I'll have someone deliver it then."

Nan Xuan arched his hand and left, he had to think of other sources of wealth, and if he didn't expand his financial resources, the Heavenly Saint Sect would not be able to hold on.

There is a shortage of high-level alchemists in the sect now, although Bai Xixi and Yu Tianxiang are both fifth-order high-grade alchemists, but they may not be sure that they will produce nine pills when refining fifth-order pills, and Bai Xixi is sitting in Kunlun, Yu Tianxiang is ready to break through the Divine Void Period, which makes alchemists even more scarce.

Nan Xuan sent alchemy materials, and Lin Xiao personally went to the Danxia Sect in Zhongzhou, taking the opportunity to meet with Lan Lingyu, and the two walked among the mountain gates.

Danxia Sect threw himself into the Five Continents Alliance, which was something that Lin Xiao felt very lucky, otherwise Lin Xiao would be an enemy of Danxia Sect, Lan Lingyu revealed Danxia Sect's worries.

Danxia Sect's alchemy is second to none in the world of cultivating immortals, which also makes Danxia Sect a thorn in the side of the Immortal League, a thorn in the flesh, in recent years, the Immortal League has been plotting against the Danxia Sect, and has shot several times in the Danxia Sect, several disciples with good alchemy talent have been collapsed by the Immortal League, either they went mad or were directly poached, and the Danxia Sect made a mistake in dealing with this, causing a great blow.

"Lin Xiao, you say, will my father throw himself into the Immortal League?"

"Lingyu, have you found something?"

"Well, the Immortal League sent someone to contact my father, my father is one of the most skilled alchemists in the Danxia Sect except for the Eighth Realm Ancestor, I'm afraid he will make the wrong choice"

"What does your dad mean, did you reveal it?"

"Not yet, I asked him, he wouldn't say, I'm worried that we will be enemies in the future"

"Wait a minute, I'll go see my uncle, I'll go and find out, don't worry, I won't let this happen"

Lin Xiao's heart sank, if the Danxia Sect also fell to the side of the Immortal Alliance, then the advantage of the Five Continents Alliance would really be less and less, Lin Xiao definitely couldn't let this kind of thing happen.
