59. Expansion, constant expansion

"Third uncle, third uncle......"

Chen Chaoyan knelt on the stairs, looking at the palace in the sky, and quietly pulled the sleeve of Chen Jiezhi beside him.

Chen Jiezhi first peeked at Mr. Wuyun in front of him, and then turned his head to look at his niece.

"The palace of the Tang King is not so magnificent, flying in the sky. Chen Chaoyan whispered.

Chen Jiezhi nodded silently.

On the side, the other two elders of the Chen family all felt the same way.

At this moment, they sincerely felt that the final choice to come to Chang'an City on the way to being hunted down was really the most correct decision in their lives.

Here, not only will their clan be safe, but they may even be able to rise again and regain everything they have lost from the Eastern Tang.

Guo Zi and Hui Tianyu of the Hanshan faction have never seen what the Eastern Tang Palace looks like.

But they were also sure at the moment that there was a bright future for the Cold Mountain Sect.

The little girl, who had lost her panicked appearance at the moment, calmed down, and was looking around curiously at the moment.

Mr. Wuyun, a faint smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and looked at the people in Qingfu Palace and Jingyue Tower who were captured left and right.

Zhang Dongyun thanked them from the bottom of his heart for not rushing into the original invincible city with Gu Hechuan, the traitor of Qingyunguan before.

If they come in together, they won't be able to trigger the guardian mission, but will be covered by Gu Hechuan, who has cultivated to a higher realm.

And now......

[Random Guardian Mission 3.1 - Kill or capture He Qian, the elder of Jingyue Tower, and Shun Mingdaoren, the elder of Qingfu Palace, who entered the city]

[The city lord captures He Qian and Shunming Daoren who entered the city, completes the random guardian task 3.1, and obtains 800 points of upgrade experience]

Previously solving that Qingyunguan traitor Gu Hechuan, he got five hundred guardian upgrade experience, which was just enough for the two thousand points needed for the second upgrade.

And the third city upgrade and expansion, the need for protection and construction upgrade experience, increased again, each to 3,000 points.

However, thanks to the two factions of Qingfu Palace and Jingyue Tower.

As soon as the second upgrade and expansion was completed, they sent it to the door and first saved 800 guardian upgrade experience for Zhang Dongyun.

In this way, it will only take 2,200 points to upgrade the next upgrade and the Guardian Upgrade experience.

The construction and upgrading experience points are still 100 points left this time, so there is still a gap of 2,900 points.

After refreshing the task list, a new construction task appeared in front of Zhang Dongyun's eyes.

[Construction task 3.1 - primary cultural education, the current overall cultural level of urban residents under the rule is insufficient, the first step is to reduce the illiteracy rate to less than 50%]

Ok, not much has changed...... Zhang Dongyun said in his heart.

He had already ordered Hui Tianyu and others to be in the city to collect and sort out people who could read and break words.

Knowledge does not need to be high, just have a basic level of education.

A toss is just to prepare for the current task.

However, there is still a long way to go......

At present, most of the people in the city are refugees and Tang soldiers.

The cultural literacy rate is limited, and it is a big project to improve it.

The city's current basic education capacity may not be sufficient.

It is not easy to reduce the illiteracy rate to less than half.

Well, if the standard for illiteracy is the one I set at the beginning...... When Zhang Dongyun thought of this, he couldn't help but want to roll his eyes.

At the beginning, he set the standard for literacy to be 1,000 and 5,000 literates, and to be able to read and write basically......

If you knew this, you would have known ten or eight words to pass the test.

Zhang Dacheng repented that he was not at the beginning.

However, in any case, the city was upgraded and expanded again, which made him feel good.

[City Lord: Zhang Dongyun

Current range: 16 kilometers from east to west, 24 kilometers from north to south, 8 kilometers above and 8 kilometers underground

City wall range: 4,000 meters from east to west, 6,000 meters from north to south】

Compared to before, the size of the Invincible City in all aspects of space has been quadrupled again.

In terms of cross-sectional area, or the area it occupies in this world, it is sixteen times larger.

It has now reached 384 square kilometers.

Compared with Qinzhou Mansion, Longbei County, and the Eastern Tang Dynasty, it still doesn't seem to be much bigger.

But every time it expanded, the area increased sixteenfold, and in the long run, it was not to be underestimated.

At present, the coverage of the Invincible City has exceeded the entire Baiyun Abyss, touching other mountains in the Dragon Mountains.

If you expand again, you should be able to go down the mountain.

In comparison, the people in the city at the moment, in the entire system coverage, can be regarded as sparsely populated.

Zhang Dongyun recalled that he had the impression that there would soon be another task to increase the population.

You can prepare early and plan ahead.

However, with the increase in population, it is more difficult for illiteracy to break free.

It's better to complete the primary literacy task first and earn construction points.

Zhang Dacheng Lord sat firmly in the Daming Palace, and while calculating, he watched the Blood Shadow Old Demon come up the stairs.

The old devil was apprehensive and went outside the palace gate.

The palace gate automatically opens to both sides.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. The Blood Shadow Old Demon respectfully walked into the palace gate.

In the Daming Palace, there is no one, only a faint glow, and a little smoke and clouds are circulating.

After passing through several palaces, the Blood Shadow Old Demon finally met Zhang Dongyun in the central hall who had turned into an evil emperor.

"No courtesy. ”

Zhang Dongyun looked at the Blood Shadow Old Demon who was worshipping below, and commanded indifferently.

After thanking him, the old devil got up, took out a few secret things, and presented them to Zhang Dongyun above.

"The old slave is incompetent, ashamed of Your Majesty, and failed to bring back the heavenly wolf. ”

The Blood Shadow Old Demon first confessed, and then explained: "In the cave, it is not Yang Li's rebel thief, nor is it a real heavenly wolf, but ...... A wolf spirit. ”

With the blessing of the invincible city system, Zhang Dongyun can judge that the other party is telling the truth.

He casually took the things presented by the Blood Shadow Old Demon, and groaned in his heart.

Demon Soul, not a cultivator of the Eighth Realm of the Demon Dao, the Demon Soul Realm.

That is to say, for some reason, a cultivator who cultivates the Heavenly Wolf Transformation, the Demon Dao cultivator above the eighth realm, separates his own Heavenly Wolf Demon Soul.

The demon soul was left in that secret cave, and the whereabouts of the cultivator himself were unknown.

Considering the relationship between the immortal fragment engraving, that product should be Yang Li.

The question is, what about Yang Li himself?

There are three things that the Blood Shadow Elder Demon offers.

A treasure orb the size of an adult man's fist and covered in pitch black.

A piece of fur.

There is also a stone slab.

That pitch-black orb was the product of the Blood Shadow Old Demon after defeating the Heavenly Wolf Demon Soul.

The demon soul gave the Forgetful View a headache, and the Blood Shadow Old Demon relied on the secret method taught by Zhang Dongyun to prescribe the right medicine and restrain the other party, so he came to capture it.

Zhang Dongyun studied it carefully, and compared with the memory of the evil emperor Ming Tonghui, he could determine that this Heavenly Wolf Demon Soul was from Yang Li.

And that fur should be derived from the magic skill of the golden cicada's shelling nature.

It was a by-product of Yang Li's separation of the wolf demon soul of that day.

The reason why the other party took a lot of trouble may be due to the fact that when the Immortal Trace Incident occurred, he was severely injured by the evil emperor Ming Tonghui.

The injuries inflicted on him by the Evil Emperor were like maggots on the tarsal bones, making it difficult for him to be reincarnated and rebuilt.

Giving up this wolf demon soul is similar to a gecko breaking its tail to survive.

And on the surface of the stone slab, a mysterious mark appeared, which was closely related to the immortal fragment in Yang Li's hand.

Zhang Dongyun's eyebrows raised slightly.

Yang Li left these in that secret cave, was he overwhelmed, forced to do so, or was he ......

Intentionally?
