Lin Xiao did not go out immediately, nor did he meditate, but rarely lay on the bed and closed his eyes to recuperate, thousands of years of penance, Lin Xiao has not been in bed for many years, and the monk does not have to sleep, basically instead of meditating.

Lin Xiao lived the memories of his past thousand years in his mind, from the time he arrived in this world inexplicably, and then became the sect master like a duck on the shelf, the sect was in civil strife, and it was in danger, so at that time, Lin Xiao didn't think about anything else at all, just to stabilize the sect and strengthen himself.

Then it was step by step, painstaking management, annexing the surrounding areas, and finally establishing the Wu Kingdom, which offended Tianxuanzong again, and had to continue to grow step by step, going through wars.

Every time the system is upgraded, Lin Xiao needs to work hard constantly, but Lin Xiao's efforts, if you look at it in the long run, make him feel like playing a game.

This is a real game, you will be injured, you will die, and at this moment, Lin Xiao's heart is full of worry, no, it didn't start at this moment, but Lin Xiao was worried when he was upgraded last time.

The last time he was upgraded in Zhongzhou, Lin Xiao noticed the fluctuations of the system, and was punished by the system under the investigation, and was directly stunned, the strength of the system is self-evident, Lin Xiao can be sure that even now, Lin Xiao is not the opponent of the system.

"Automatic Upgrade"

Lin Xiao muttered in his heart, the conditions for system upgrade were actually met by him, and he was satisfied when he broke through the Supreme in retreat, the Human Emperor, the system blank, and the luck weapon, but after getting out, Lin Xiao did not take the initiative to upgrade.

"Loyalty, Mindfulness"

Lin Xiao also knew the source of power of the system, the loyalty of the disciples to the sect, to put it bluntly, it was also a kind of mental power, for a thousand years, the disciples of the Heavenly Saint Sect had millions of them, and the points brought to Lin Xiao were also hundreds of millions, and now the balance was more than twenty million.

Over the years, the disciples have also continued to fall and sit, there are thousands of tombstones in the mountain gate, so many that the mountain gate can not be put down, and there are still more than 900,000 disciples in the mountain gate, Weiguo, Lingju country, wind and fire island, Cancer Island, and Sanssouci sect.

"Heaven Destroying Array, Ascension"

And the requirement for the next upgrade is to seize the origin of the world, that is, the way of heaven, and to do this, Lin Xiao must have eighty-one supreme help, not counting himself, there must be as many as eighty people, and as far as Lin Xiao knows, even in the heyday of the immortal cultivation world, there are only thirty or forty supreme monks, and this is still the situation including those who fake their deaths.

This means that Lin Xiao has to cultivate sixty or seventy supreme beings, before Yu Pingcheng and the others enter the weakening period, then the time given to Lin Xiao is only a few thousand years, less than ten thousand years.

This requirement is very high, even if it is a cultivator in the Cave Xuan Period of the Immortal Cultivation Realm now, Lin Xiao doesn't know if there are eighty people, let alone the Supreme, how can the Supreme have such a good breakthrough.

"Points"

Lin Xiao sighed in his heart, now it seems that only a large number of points can do this, and this point is not calculated according to tens of millions, the unit has to use billions.

The average loyalty of the disciples of the Heavenly Saint Sect is about sixty, and the one and a half million disciples are only about 100 million points, even if Lin Xiao doesn't spend a penny, he will have to accumulate it for many years.

If it is a million disciples, then most of the disciples will not be able to break through the Purple Mansion Period for the rest of their lives, that is to say, it will take about a hundred years to completely stabilize the points, so that even if it is the best state, Lin Xiao will have to accumulate three or five hundred years, and in fact, this time needs to be doubled.

······

After a month and a half of retreat, Lin Xiao came out of the customs and summoned Nan Xuan, Lin Xiao asked, "Nan Xuan, with the current income of the sect, how many disciples can be recruited at the maximum range?"

"Large-scale recruitment, the master, there seems to be no war in the immortal cultivation world."

Nan Xuan asked rhetorically, according to his understanding of Lin Xiao, only before the big war, will he recruit disciples on a large scale, regardless of qualifications, how can there be a war in the immortal cultivation world now, who would dare to do anything to the Heavenly Saint Sect?

"It has nothing to do with the war, I'll just ask"

"Then I want to ask the head how many disciples he wants to recruit?"

"Naturally, the more the merrier, one million, two million will do"

"Master, you are too embarrassed for me, now the sect's expenditure is already very large, besides, what are we going to do when we recruit so many disciples.

Now on this side of the Mountain Gate, plus Weiguo, Lingju Country, Wind and Fire Island, and Sanssouci Sect, there are about 800,000 disciples, and I don't know how many there are on the night owl side, but there are about 100,000, which has completely exceeded our strength, and it can't be increased."

Nan Xuan shook his head, in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, even if it is a first-class force like Kunlun Penglai, the average disciple is about two or three hundred thousand, which is already the top of the sky, and if the Immortal Cultivation Realm is stable, it will be reduced to less than two hundred thousand.

For the vast majority of forces, there are not many disciples in the essence, and it is useless to have more disciples below the Purple Mansion, so it is better to concentrate resources to cultivate those disciples with superior talents.

Therefore, the disciples of the Heavenly Saint Sect, which is close to one million, are already three times larger than the scale of Kunlun, which makes the financial resources of the sect extremely difficult, fortunately, all the disciples are not concentrated in the martial country, but there are still four branches, otherwise the sect alone would have collapsed a long time ago.

"Don't talk about this, I mean that if there are four more branches on the mountain gate, can it support the expenditure of about 1.5 million people?"

"No, the master, there are more and more high-level monks in our sect, a monk in the Divine Void Period, he will get two million Xuanjing in a year alone, and the Golden Body Period is five million, which only meets their basic cultivation needs, and the other things have not been counted, the sect must provide them here, which will go to more than 100 million, and there is also a huge number of spiritual light periods, Daogang periods, we have to go to four or five billion, if the number of people increases to one and a half million, the basic expenditure will exceed fifteen billion, this is not counting anything else, our financial resources are not enough at all"

Nan Xuan immediately calculated an account, low-level monks really don't spend much resources, but don't forget, there are more and more high-level monks in the sect, and the growth of the sect's financial resources is slow, there are bottlenecks, and it can't support so much at all.

"What if we open a new branch?"

"There is no difference, the branch also has to be invested in advance, now in the immortal cultivation world, in addition to opening up the wilderness, only Dongzhou can still occupy a little territory, and the Sanssouci Sect already has a stronghold in Dongzhou, there is no need for this"

"Add tens of thousands, it's always okay to make up a million"

"Tens of thousands of people can be, but it's not necessary, our sect's important industries are all sufficient, and we don't want to fight, what are we going to do to feed so many people?"

Nan Xuan asked rhetorically, the mountain gate of the sect, the spiritual mountains everywhere, the merchants, the front line, and so on, are very well manned, and there are a large number of low-level monks who have entered the mortals to maintain order, and they have long been satisfied.

"Now how many disciples are sitting on the sect plus the branch every year, and how many disciples are recruited every year?"

Lin Xiao sighed, unsatisfactory, even this can't be satisfied, hey, when and when can I accumulate enough points?

"Sects and branches, I didn't look at the specifics, but almost 20,000 people sit every year, and the number of disciples recruited is about the same, how many and few, I can't be precise"

"20,000 people, 2 percent, almost"

Lin Xiao nodded, there are more than 900,000 people, 20,000 people sit every year, and recruit 20,000 disciples, almost, but in this way, Lin Xiao can get more than one million points every year, and Lin Xiao can't just go in and out, in fact, he can't accumulate one million at all, the key is that now the million points are not much use for Lin Xiao, eighty supremes, how many people does Lin Xiao master now, ten, and there are still seventy.

"Master, what are you going to do, give me an explanation, I'll prepare, now Gongming City is still expanding, you can't stop"

"Don't stop in Komeito City, it's okay, I'll figure it out by myself"

"Boss..."

"Let's go get busy first"

Lin Xiao waved his hand, Gongming City will be an important source of wealth for the sect in the future, and it can't be stopped, and Nan Xuan is ready to spend thirty years to expand, and it has been going on for many years now, and it will be too much waste if it stops.

The upgrade of the system has disrupted many of Lin Xiao's plans, according to the current situation, Bai Zichen and these high-level sects may need to all be cultivated into supremes, eighty-one supremes, and the martial country must account for more than half, Lin Xiao can dare to get that Heavenly Punishment Array, otherwise don't think about it.

"The system, the supreme of the Heaven Punishment Array, can it include the demon clan?"

"Theoretically, yes, you only need to be the supreme of this world, but from a security point of view, I don't suggest that the requirements of the Heavenly Punishment Array are extremely high, once someone turns against the water, the plan will fail, and the host only has one chance, if the attempt fails, the origin of the world will regard you as an enemy, and will send disasters to kill you"

"Got it"

Lin Xiao nodded, the path of the demon clan has failed again, otherwise the demon clan still has more than a dozen supremes, and they can still unite, it seems that the process is still very difficult.

Lin Xiao didn't go to the Shenmu Sect immediately, this matter still needs to be planned slowly, Lin Xiao recruited Li Jiusi, and discussed with Li Jiusi for a long time, Li Jiusi is now cultivating in the Divine Void Period, and he is the highest level of earth master in the immortal cultivation world, Lin Xiao gave him an order to continue to look for minerals.

It is not necessary to be limited to the Heavenly Saint Sect or the Martial Kingdom, but to look for it in the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm and improve the strength of the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm, this matter, Lin Xiao will not be limited to the Heavenly Saint Sect or the Immortal League, more sects must be pulled into the water, otherwise according to the current ratio, each sect has several supremes, they will not be so obedient, and their strength will inevitably give rise to ambitions.

Lin Xiao, the sect that is united and wooed, already has a list, this is not in a hurry, you have to take your time, Lin Xiao still has to ensure the strength of the Heavenly Saint Sect first.

Then Lin Xiao continued to discuss with Ye Nanyu and the others, determined to cultivate all of them into supremes, and by the way, also solved the problem of the successor of the previous sect, the level of the successor can be reduced, but the overall strength of the sect must be improved, if the Heavenly Saint Sect really has more than twenty or thirty supremes, as long as the successor is not a pig, the sect will not have a problem.

Ye Nanyu and the others were naturally very happy, the supreme monk can reach a lifespan of about 50,000 years, who doesn't want to live a few more years, the longevity is very tempting for high-level monks.
