Chapter 226: Harvesting the Immortals
Three years of time, quietly passed.
The Great Xia Imperial Court is finally on the right track, and 99 percent of the government affairs can be properly resolved at the cabinet level, even if Lin Tianheng is not there, it will hardly cause much impact, and the ministries perform their duties, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
Three hundred years have passed in the Zhuxian world, and it is time to harvest.
At this time, the death and retreat of the original older generation of monks have almost all disappeared from the sight of the world, Zhang Xiaofan has become a respected old-timer, and he is the object of admiration of immortal cultivators in the new era, and it is very important for the entire cultivation world.
On this day, Zhang Xiaofan, accompanied by his two wives, met with an important guest, and even broke the hundred-year-old drinking ring, and had a drunken conversation with the visitors.
This person, of course, is Lin Tianheng, who returned to the Zhuxian World for harvesting.
On this trip, Lin Tianheng can be said to have gained a lot, not only obtained a volume of top immortal cultivation techniques born from the various exercises of Buddhism, Taoism, demons and witches in this realm, but also obtained the perfect "Yuan Absorbing Dafa", as well as various treasures.
Speaking of "absorbing the Yuan Dafa", Zhang Xiaofan couldn't help but vomit bitterness.
Back then, Jiang Laosan was also a talent, and after receiving the "Yuan Absorbing Dafa" given by Lin Tianheng, he went to Southern Xinjiang incognito and concentrated on cultivating this trick, and he didn't know how many monks he had harmed.
Jiang Laosan became very cautious after experiencing the matter of the Blood Refining Hall, and did not absorb the essence of others with great fanfare, but secretly developed obscenely, often changing places with one shot, even if it was found that someone was practicing such a vicious exercise, but he couldn't even catch his shadow.
Later, Jiang Laosan felt that this method was still too slow after all, so he formed a force called the Yuan Absorbing God Sect and secretly spread the "Yuan Absorbing Dafa".
If Jiang Laosan crosses into modern society, he is likely to be a good hand at pyramid schemes, because his operation mode of absorbing the Yuan Shen Sect is basically the same as pyramid schemes, which is essentially to develop a large number of downlines, harvest part of the essence of the downline, and then let the downline go outside to absorb the essence of other monks.
Due to the unique nature of the "Yuan Absorbing Dafa", Jiang Laosan quickly gathered a large number of disciples and obtained a large amount of essence from them, and his cultivation also rose rapidly, even faster than the Heavenly Book of Enlightenment.
However, the power of the Yuan Shen Sect is large, and the more incidents are generated, and it soon attracted the attention of Zhang Xiaofan and them, and the essence of the Yuan Yuan God Sect dares to take it by force, so that it is almost an enemy of the entire cultivation world.
Therefore, after the Qingyunmen and other sects took action, the power of the Yuan Shen Sect in southern Xinjiang was quickly wiped out.
In the experience of hiding in Tibet for many years, Jiang Laosan has become quite slippery, in the process of preaching, he always kept a hand, and as soon as he saw that things were not good, he immediately gave up the Yuanshen Sect in southern Xinjiang, thus avoiding this encirclement and suppression.
In the next hundred years, Jiang Laosan rebuilt the Yuan Absorbing God Sect in many places, although it was easily destroyed every time, but he himself gained a lot in the process of preaching, not only gradually perfecting Lin Tianheng's "Yuan Absorbing Dafa", but also raising his own cultivation to a higher level, among his peers, I am afraid that only Zhang Xiaofan can suppress him.
Then, I don't know if Jiang Laosan swelled, or if he reached some bottleneck and needed to observe the Book of Heaven, he actually swaggered up to Qingyun Mountain, and it was not surprising that Zhang Xiaofan and others restrained him.
Because the Yuan Sucking God Sect made people angry, many people wanted to kill Jiang Laosan on the spot, and in order to save his life, he told the fact that Lin Tianheng was the founder of the "Yuan Sucking Dafa".
Most people don't agree with this statement, after all, Lin Tianheng is a divine existence in their hearts, but Zhang Xiaofan, Wan Wan Xiang and others, who have dealt with Lin Tianheng, think that this is possible.
So, Jiang Laosan saved his life for the time being, but he was imprisoned in Qingyun Mountain for the rest of his life, and during his captivity, he did not give up the improvement of the "Yuan Absorbing Dafa", and worked hard for nearly a hundred years, and finally performed what he thought was the perfect exercise decades ago, and then laughed three times and passed away.
Zhang Xiaofan originally wanted to destroy such evil methods, but considering that it was related to Lin Tianheng, he kept it by mistake and kept it close to him, for fear that it would fall into the hands of someone with unscrupulous intentions.
Now, Lin Tianheng has returned, and Zhang Xiaofan can be regarded as having a mind.
However, before handing over the exercise method to Lin Tianheng, Zhang Xiaofan still persuaded him, to the effect that this method robs people of essence and harms Tianhe, and hopes that Lin Tianheng can seal it and never use it.
Lin Tianheng laughed, he didn't care too much, all kinds of exercises have their origin and existence, there is no good or bad exercises, people have good and evil, there is no need to put them on the shelf because of fear, after all, there are still terrifying things like cannibalism in the world, how can you do it without making some preparations in advance!
In addition to the exercises, Lin Tianheng also carried out large-scale harvesting of medicinal materials and ores, and the resources of the Alchemy Hall and the Alchemy Hall were instantly enriched, and the divine beasts such as Lingzun and Yellow Bird were bloodied by him again.
Since he went back this time, Lin Tianheng was going to completely transform the Lin family into a Xiuzhen family, so he also packed a lot of some middle and low-level magic weapons, and he only took away the high-level magic weapons Zhu Xian Sword, Fu Long Ding, Xuanhuo Jian and Hehuan Bell.
Because the Zhuxian Sword is too angry, Zhang Xiaofan has basically not used it in three hundred years, and with his cultivation at this time, he can already laugh at the world's monks, and there is no need to use the Zhuxian Sword, so he himself is not very resistant to Lin Tianheng's behavior of taking away the Zhuxian Sword, after all, this sword was handed over to him by Lin Tianheng back then.
The 10,000 people who were already old handed over Fu Long Ding just as simply, and now that the battle between the demons and demons has become history, he has long since lost the mind to refine the Four Spirit Blood Array, and Fu Long Ding is dispensable.
Xuanhuo Jian was originally the magic weapon of the witch Linglong in southern Xinjiang, and later became the treasure of the town valley of the Incense Valley, and then it was stolen by the nine-tailed sky fox and fell into the hands of his son Six-tails.
Because Lin Tianheng changed the plot, the six tails were not able to hand over the Xuanhuo Jian before he died, so this magic weapon became his burial object, and no one found it for three hundred years, until Lin Tianheng returned this time, and this treasure was seen again.
After getting these things, Lin Tianheng said goodbye to Zhang Xiaofan again and returned to the main world, which should be goodbye.
After returning to the main world, Lin Tianheng immediately summoned the juniors in the clan to teach them the wisdom crystallization of the two righteous and demonic realms of the Zhuxian world for three hundred years.
Because Lin Tianheng had passed down the martial arts cultivation method in the Zhuxian World before, the obstacles for the junior Lin family to transfer to this technique were very small, especially the martial artists of the Heavenly and Human Realm, and there was no hindrance.
In three years, with the assistance of dragon qi, the Lin family added four more celestials, Lin Jianli, Lin Jianwei, Lin Junhao and Lin Ziqing.
Lin Jianqing was a little behind, because he was addicted to the ocean of formations.
After Lin Tianheng founded the Alchemy Hall, he began to set up the formation of the Formation Hall, Lin Jianqing was extremely interested in the formation of such a thing, so he recommended himself and took over the position of the master of the Formation Hall, since then, he began to concentrate on studying the way of the formation, thus ignoring his own cultivation.
Maybe he didn't find what he really loved before, after he settled down to study, Lin Jianqing himself actually had a spirit of study, in addition to the formation classics of the various sects that Lin Tianheng got from the Zhuxian World, he even began to study Zhou Yi gossip and some mathematics books, and ran to the Ministry of Science and Technology in three days.
People with this kind of research spirit generally do not make too slow progress, in the past three years, Lin Jianqing has been familiar with and mastered a lot of low-level formations, but if he wants to arrange the Zhuxian Sword Formation or the Eight Fierce Xuanhuo Array, the top formations in the Zhuxian world, he still has no strength, even if the materials are enough, it is difficult to successfully arrange them with his cultivation.
Therefore, Lin Tianheng, who returned this time, wanted to arrange a set of guardian formations in the palace, but Lin Jianqing, who was the master of the formation hall, was difficult to do, and the formations he could arrange were still too low-level.
In fact, there was originally a formation guarding the Xia Capital Palace, which was laid by Zhou Xianlong, the ancestor of the Great Qi in the past, and its main driving energy came from the Great Qi Dragon Qi.
However, Lin Tianheng didn't want to use this formation, because the dragon qi would be continuously consumed by it, and the national fortune of Daqi would get worse and worse, and it would definitely be extremely uneconomical for the precious dragon qi to be used on it, and the problem that could be solved with spirit stones, why use dragon qi? Although there are not many spirit stones.
The spirit stones in Lin Tianheng's hand were all searched from the magic boat in the six-turnstile gate, and they were reserved for going to the Zhongtian Continent, and there were only a few hundred spirit stones left in the magic boat that needed to be consumed, and it was enough to arrange a defensive formation.
Since there were no powerful cultivators in this continent, Lin Tianheng chose a mid- and low-level defensive formation, the strongest of which could resist the attacks of the Yuan Fetal Realm, which was more than enough for the current Lin family.
Lin Jianqing, who took the initiative to apply to become an assistant, watched Lin Tianheng finish arranging the formation in silence, and finally realized that he was abandoning his roots, and the existence of the formation could save the monk from many troubles and worries, obviously to improve his cultivation, but he didn't think about cultivation, and blindly studied the formation, this way was obviously unreasonable.
So, in the next period of time, Lin Jianqing began to work hard to improve his cultivation while taking into account the study of the way of formations, and after transferring to the "Zhu Immortal Jue", he soon entered the Jindan realm, and he could arrange more formations.
Interest is really the best teacher, Master Lu is honest and does not deceive me.
In less than a month, the juniors of the Lin family also successfully transferred to the "Zhuxian Jue" and opened their path to monkhood.
In order to promote their cultivation, Lin Tianheng deliberately put the low-level magic weapons he collected into the Refining Pavilion, allowing them to exchange them with their own contribution points, and the price was extremely low and discounted for a limited time.
This move not only allowed some juniors who had military merits before to successfully exchange for their favorite magic weapons, but also promoted the enthusiasm of the juniors of the Lin family to gain some contributions.
Since Lin Tianheng set the rules, the Holy Martial Pavilion would be open to the Lin family for free once, so their thirst for contribution points was not as strong as that of civilian martial artists, and only a very small number of martial arts idiot juniors would work hard to earn contribution points, in order to enter the Holy Martial Pavilion a few more times and participate in the study of a little Lin Tianheng's handwriting.
Now that they can exchange contribution points for magic weapons, the enthusiasm of the juniors of the Lin family is unprecedentedly high, and they are thinking of ways to obtain and buy contribution points.
Because the war has ended, the channel to obtain military merit has been closed, and it is more difficult to obtain contribution points than before.
Great Xia is not a sect after all, so Lin Tianheng did not set up an institution such as a task hall specifically for the imperial family, so if he wants to obtain contribution points, in addition to making groundbreaking things in science and technology, martial arts, cultivation, etc., and handing in various treasures, then there is only one way to do bounty tasks.
The bounty task is a new initiative of the Criminal Department, aiming to reward the fugitive criminals, most of these people are martial arts masters, and it is difficult for ordinary criminal departments to arrest them quickly, but most of the masters are unwilling to do the work of arresting quickly, so the people in the Criminal Department have to use the method of rewarding.
Daqi also had similar measures before, but when Daqi was rewarding with money, Lin Tianheng changed it to a contribution point.
Therefore, in order to obtain contribution points, many juniors of the Lin family, who felt that their strength was good, either alone or in groups, went to various places to capture the key criminals on the bounty task.
This move not only allowed the juniors of the Lin family to increase a lot of actual combat experience, but also increased their strength while enriching their experience, except for a few casualties, the vast majority of people benefited from it.
Driven by the royal family, all kinds of bounty hunters are also emerging in endlessly, and for a while, many murderers who have not yet been arrested have been caught and rewarded one after another, and the social atmosphere of the entire Great Xia has changed a lot, which can be described as Heqing Haiyan.
As a result, the people were more loyal to Great Xia, and Lin Tianheng and the entire royal family gained some benefits from it, such as a higher concentration of dragon qi.
Even Lin Tianheng didn't expect that his small move to inspire the people of the Lin clan would ultimately benefit him a lot.
Seeing that the Alchemy Hall was booming, and the Alchemy Hall was not to be outdone, after three years of low-key development, the Alchemy Hall was finally able to produce pills in small batches, and the main types of pills were still based on healing and saving lives, supplemented by increased cultivation.
Because there are more pill consumables to increase cultivation, and it is more difficult to refine, and things like the improved version of the Great Returning Pill are far less beneficial to monks than when they are against martial artists, so the Dan Fang still needs to be further adjusted.
The low-end healing pills were widely acclaimed, not only for the Lin family's own use, but also for a considerable number of them to flow into the rivers and lakes, in exchange for medicinal materials and various resources, to support the normal operation of the Alchemy Hall, and barely managed to break even.
However, in terms of high-end pills, Alchemy Hall still lacks a lot, and it can even be said that it has fallen into a bottleneck of development.
Lin Junji did have a deep attainment in pharmacology, but alchemy was not only proficient in pharmacology, it was difficult to refine the pills needed above the realm of heaven and man with his methods.
In comparison, Lin Zifu, who started to learn Danshu earlier, was better at alchemy techniques, but his cultivation was not as good as Lin Junjiu's, and he was inferior in fire control, and he was also unable to refine higher-level pills.
In this case, without waiting for Lin Junji and others to report to Lin Tianheng, the system took the initiative to help them arrange the task.
