Chapter 353: Becoming an Elder
Seven days later, Lin Ye, who had been serving as a temple guard, received the title of an elder.
Lin Ye was naturally willing to accept it.
The Eighth Temple, located to the north of the Earth-Covering Temple, has a total of thirty dragon-man tribes in the vicinity, and the jurisdiction of the Eighth Temple is half of that of the second-to-last Temple.
"Isn't this just an empty temple?" Lin Ye scratched his head, he stood in an empty courtyard, there was nothing around. There was only a small low house, standing in front of Lin Ye.
In the middle of the courtyard stands this stone stick, this stone stick looks like it was carved from a random stone, but it is the foundation of the eighth temple, and after having it, the eighth temple can absorb the soul power of the tribe under its jurisdiction.
By the door of the small house was a black-robed man, a temple guard who had been transferred and was now assigned here.
In the branch temple, there are now only two people left, Lin Ye and the black-robed man, and there is not even a single temple warrior in the entire branch temple.
"The temple master shouldn't let me start from scratch, right?" Lin Ye touched the coat of arms on his chest, a little incredulous.
In addition to these low-level exercises, a box in the room has been prepared for the night of all kinds of things necessary for the establishment of a branch temple.
"Elder Lin Ye, I have already inquired in the vicinity, the news of the establishment of a branch temple in this place has spread, and in a few days, the nearby dragon tribe will send people to this place to be assessed and become the first batch of temple warriors. The crescent moon of Lin Ye's family ran over from behind. At Lin Ye's request, Crescent no longer called Lin Ye the master, but called him an elder.
"Hmph!" The black-robed man guarding the door of the room didn't seem to be very obedient to Lin Ye, he turned his head and snorted coldly.
"An elder who has risen from the temple warriors must have relied on some kind of backstage. Lin Ye's heart thought like this, thinking about the thoughts in the hearts of the black-robed people.
This is really a normal reaction, if an elder is suddenly parachuted, and this elder's strength is not as strong as his own, this black-robed man will definitely have such thoughts.
Lin Ye shrugged his shoulders, he had already guessed the thoughts of the black-robed man. Fortunately, this black-robed man is unhappy, and he is still conscientious about his work.
The construction of the branch temple was all handled by the black-robed people, and after communicating with Lin Ye for a while, the black-robed people seemed to find that Lin Ye was very easy to get along with, and his tone and attitude also eased.
Since the temple master alone sent this black-robed man to assist Lin Ye's work, it proved that he did have some ability.
The black-robed man's name is Jin Yan, and he comes from the dragonman tribe in this area, so he is more familiar with this area.
Jin Yan promised that he would take a large number of workers to participate in the construction of the branch temple, but all this required money.
There are also three thousand natural stones in the warehouse of the branch temple, and these natural stones are obviously enough. As long as you don't buy some luxuries, you can slowly improve the entire branch temple step by step.
The main temple will also continue to invest in the eighth temple, and from a general point of view, there will be no shortage of important resources needed for the branch temple.
It will take at least a year or two to build a complete branch temple from scratch, such as the seventh temple.
"This is too slow!" Lin Ye sighed, where did he have so much time.
"The host thinks too complicated about the construction of the branch temple. This is not a task for the host alone. The system sounded in Lin Ye's mind.
In such an undeveloped place, suddenly there is news that the Earth Covering Temple is going to build a branch temple here, what will the surrounding tribes think?
Will it be vigorously resisted, or will it be ecstatic?
"Ecstatic!" Lin Ye's eyes lit up. There is an eighth temple here, so this is equivalent to a special economic zone set up by the temple of the earth.
The dragons of the surrounding dragonman tribes will come here to participate in the assessment and become the temple warriors admired by everyone, so as to reach the peak of dragon life.
A branch temple can greatly promote the development of the surrounding area. Capital from all over the world will also come and gather in this area. There are some things that Lin Ye doesn't need to handle at all, and these things will come naturally with the time and place. And what surrounding facilities don't even need Lin Ye to pay for the construction himself, those businessmen who chase profits will spontaneously gather here and jointly fund the construction.
What Lin Ye had to do was just a verbal promise to them to be able to operate here.
"What you said seems to have some point. Lin Ye touched his head, "However, I still feel that something is wrong." ”
"Elder, what else do you command?" Crescent Moon heard Lin Ye's summons and walked into a small wooden house that had been set up improvised next to her.
"You gather and hire a group of people to spread the word that the temple wants to attract investment. ”
Hearing Lin Ye's command, the crescent moon nodded and left the eighth temple.
"It seems that you still have some ability!" The black-robed man nodded approvingly when he saw Lin Ye doing this series of things.
If anyone dared to speak to his superiors like this, his head would have been hammered off. Fortunately, Lin Ye is still a bird with a gentle personality, and he doesn't care so much about whether his identity is noble or not. This black-robed man's little emotions are fine, after all, as long as he is given enough time, he can still recognize Lin Ye as his elder. Especially after Lin Ye showed his strength.
Lin Ye was about to make a move because of one thing soon. This matter was exactly what Lin Ye felt was wrong.
"Haha, I'll leave the rest to you, I'm afraid there are more important things to do. Lin Ye patted the black-robed man on the shoulder.
After finishing speaking, Lin Ye turned around and rushed into a small forest next to him.
With a terrible scream, a raging fire broke out inside the small forest. A dragon man was pulled out by Lin Ye. The dragonman wore a dazzling blue crest that looked completely different from Lin Ye's earth-covering crest.
This dragon man has the strength of the temple captain, although he was caught by Lin Ye, the soul power barrier on his body is still very strong, and he seems to have a lot of soul power.
- Although he was still caught by Lin Ye.
The black-robed man couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Lin Ye's swift means. Even he couldn't have caught the captain of a temple so easily. Compared with Lin Ye, Lin Ye's strength doesn't know how high it is higher than him.
"You let me go, or we won't be able to spare you in the Frozen Water Temple!"
"You're from the Frozen Water Temple?"
The Temple of Frozen Water, as the name suggests, has world-class exercises that allow cultivators to unlock water-related manipulation privileges.
The Frozen Water Temple is to the northwest of the Earth-Covering Temple, bordering the two, and now Lin Ye's eighth temple is on the boundary line of the Frozen Water Temple. This undeveloped area was previously the territory of the Temple of Frozen Water.
"I warn you, you don't want to build a branch temple here, this is our territory!"
"The Heavenly High Temple is far away, do you think that the Covered Earth Lord Temple will still be able to spare extra energy to manage you? Daydreaming!" the temple captain spat on the black-robed man's face, his expression looking very arrogant. "This is our territory, I want to see how long you can be arrogant!"
An arrogant dragon man, pointing at others and saying arrogant, but it is really the wicked who sue first, and it seems reasonable to ignore it.
"Since ancient times, this is our territory, and your temple master has relied on a moment of luck to let us cede this land, and we are not convinced!"
"Since ancient times?" the black-robed man laughed, he stretched out his hand and slapped the temple captain, "Your Frozen Water Temple can still outgrow us!"
If it weren't for the fact that the Earth Covering Temple was weakened to the limit, not to mention the small piece of land controlled by the Frozen Water Temple, even all the territory of the Frozen Water Temple used to be the Earth Covering Temple.
In the position of right and wrong, the black-robed man is absolutely on the side of the Earth-Covering Temple.
"Go back and tell your elders that if you still want to harass us, we'll be there for you!" Lin Ye kicked the temple captain in the ass hard. The temple captain screamed, and his body was like a winged pterodactyl, and after flying in an arc in the air, he was planted in the fire-covered forest.
For now, avoid going head-to-head with the Temple of Frozen Water. Lin Ye is still in charge of the eighth temple that is not in the climate, just as the captain of the Frozen Water Temple said, far water can't save the near fire, and the eighth temple is attached to the border line of the Frozen Water Temple.
"Although the temple master attaches great importance to this place, if we want to revive the Earth Covering Temple, we must face more than just the Frozen Water Temple, and we must endure it for a while. It will be only when most of the affairs of the east, south, west, and north have been taken care of that we will be able to share the pressure of the Frozen Water Temple. During this time, we are left to fend for ourselves. ”
The meaning of this sentence said by the temple master when he saw off Lin Ye was to give power to Lin Ye and let Lin Ye do it. However, Lin Ye also understood other meanings from it.
Okay, you temple master, you still have such a plan! Lin Ye's mind suddenly flashed with inspiration, and he suddenly understood the purpose of the temple master sending him here. It turned out that the temple owner was planning to use Lin Ye's backstage to block the Frozen Water Temple.
Lin Ye's worries still happened after all.
In the next three days, none of the thirty nearby dragonman tribes sent young dragonmen to join the Eighth Temple, and the news released before did not receive a response from the nearby merchants. They were all very worried about whether this so-called Eighth Temple would be able to run for a long time, or if it would be swallowed up again by the Frozen Water Temple after a few months.
Lin Ye pushed open the door, he recovered from the meditation in his daily cultivation, and looked at the empty Eighth Temple, he clenched his fists.
There is no doubt that the ubiquitous Temple of Frozen Water is using its influence that has not yet dissipated, interfering with all the dragonmen in the area little by little. If the Eighth Temple can't show a little dazzling performance, then the Eighth Temple will never be able to recruit people, and it will not be able to get the heartfelt worship of other tribes, and it will not be able to collect the soul power of each tribe.
"Damn the Frozen Water Temple!" said the black-robed man hatefully, he really wanted to contribute to the establishment of the Eighth Temple, but under the continuous low control of the Frozen Water Temple, no matter what the black-robed man did, his actions were like a heavy punch full of power hitting the soft cotton, and he couldn't hit the sore spot of the Frozen Water Temple at all.
After these three days of investigation, Lin Ye found that the nearby dragons did not want to become a glorious earth-covering temple warrior, but they were all threatened by the Frozen Water Temple, as long as anyone joined the Eighth Temple, when the Frozen Water Temple regained its territory, those dragon tribes related to the Eighth Temple would be wiped out.
If Lin Ye can use the warriors of the Phoenix Civilization, these problems are not a problem, but it is a big deal that Lin Ye takes the warriors all the way over to see which temple dares to say a word.
How can we give them confidence?
As a spirit realm creature, Lin Ye quickly found a simple, rough and powerful method, that is, to personally visit the door and meet the elders of the Frozen Water Temple.
The closest frozen water temple to Lin Ye's eighth temple is the third temple of the frozen water temple, among the ten temples of the frozen water temple, the third temple is the temple of the latecomer, the third temple was originally the last to be established, but there are many talented people here, and finally the tenth temple climbs step by step, ranking third in the frozen water temple.
"Are you crazy? Just because you're a rookie elder, you dare to challenge the branch temple opposite!?" the black-robed man shouted with his mouth wide open after hearing Lin Ye's method. The black-robed man recognized Lin Ye's elder strength, but he didn't think that Lin Ye had the ability to argue with an elder who was skilled in business.
"With your qualifications, you are not his opponent, and with your strength, you are not his opponent either! The elders of the Third Temple are weak, they are known for their ruthlessness and ruthlessness in the Frozen Water Temple, and you may not even be able to come back if you go!"
"A rookie elder, why can't he beat the other side?" Lin Ye shrugged. Especially when he heard the black-robed man say that Lin Ye's qualifications were not as good as the other side, Lin Ye's heart only sneered a few times.
In terms of qualifications, Lin Ye started from scratch, gradually becoming a wind spirit of the phoenix civilization from a young phoenix, and what is the third temple elder of the Frozen Water Temple?
Of course, Lin Ye didn't say these words to the black-robed man Jin Yan.
"I have decided to go, you don't want to go with me, so you can do it. ”
Lin Ye pushed open the door and walked out of the gate of the branch temple.
"Wait! I'll go with you. Jin Yan's voice came from behind him, and he ran to Lin Ye's side in three steps and two steps, "If something happens to you, I will definitely be punished by the temple master." I might as well go with you. ”
Jin Yan looked dejected, and he looked a little reluctant.
Lin Ye laughed, "Don't worry, I won't let you down." ”
Jin Yan still didn't believe it, he said sadly: "Alas, as long as we can go back alive, it will already be the best result." ”
