......

When Hu Yan saw Yi Ting's expression, he knew that he was also quite helpless, so he changed the topic and said: "I came this time, by the way, I also want to set up the stronghold and communication channels of Shangyuan County, Brother Hong Chen said that to establish a force that can compete with the Chuangyuan Alliance, intelligence will be the lifeblood." [ads:This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:,.] Since you happen to be here, the layout of the magic circle in the stronghold will naturally be handed over to you personally, which is the safest and safest. ”

"Naturally, there is no problem with this, it's just that, except for Brother Lu Hao, there is probably a shortage of formation mages in the group, right, how will the strongholds in other regions be handled?" Yi Ting nodded and asked.

At the same time, he also took a jade slip from Hu Yan's hand, and his spiritual sense swept it to see that in addition to the stronghold of Shangyuan County, almost half of the counties in Nanyan Country had similar strongholds.

"We can talk about the development of group knowledge and save a little time. Hu Yan said.

Yi Ting naturally has no opinion, and this commercial building is only set up to facilitate contact, and there is no high-level prohibition protection in it, so it is not suitable to talk about some confidential matters.

Then Yi Ting and Xia Jingjing followed Hu Yan to an old house on the edge of Fang City, which occupies a lot of land is not small, but it is just a little old, but it is located near Dongchengfang City, and the price will still be much higher than other areas.

However, what Chu Hongchen lacked at present was not funds, because there were countless pills, talismans, and magic weapons handed over to him by Yi Ting, but it was difficult to sell them in large quantities and convert them into gold leaves or spirit stones.

But every time they went to a place, they divided into more than ten groups of people and horses, and brought the treasures that were not duplicated, and sold them in batches to different stores.

It would not cause much commotion if each precious treasure was sold a little bit in each place, but the funds that had accumulated gradually were very impressive.

Therefore, what is lacking at present is mainly the talents of all parties and a fixed base area.

The core of the entire organization, except for Chu Hongchen and Cheng Fengxi, who had successfully broken through to the innate realm, the rest of them were still in the late stage of qi refining.

Even with the support of the high-grade pill provided by Yi Ting, it will be half a year before a new foundation building monk will appear.

In the case that the core combat strength cannot be secured, it will be quite difficult to recruit talents.

In terms of the array mages mentioned by Yi Ting, in addition to Lu Hao, a third-grade formation master, only three second-rank formation mages were recruited.

It's not that I'm afraid that I won't be able to prescribe satisfactory conditions, but I'm afraid of luring wolves into the house.

The formation mage has mastered too much, in case he moves his hands and feet during the formation process, and is bitten back, there may not be even a bone left.

Of course, it's not just the formation mage who has this problem, if someone cultivates or has strength above Chu Hongchen and the others, there will be a potential crisis.

However, Yi Ting had already thought of this, and this time he wanted to contact Chu Hongchen to meet directly, for this reason.

But this matter is very involved, and Yi Ting plans to wait until the formation is arranged.

Yi Ting first set up a three-rank protective array around the stronghold, which was also the level of the gate protection array used by most of the Shangyuan County forces.

But there is naturally a four-grade magic array hidden inside, this level of magic array cannot be exposed casually, only the top five family forces such as Jade and Mountain Villa have the strength to invite someone to arrange a high-grade protective array.

However, this old mansion has grown to accommodate five or six hundred people at most, but because it is in the city, the number of people is quite sufficient.

For example, some large families only have a few slightly larger strongholds in the city, and the main base will definitely be outside the city.

On the one hand, it can occupy a large area of vast resources, and there will not be too much restriction on the growth of the number of people.

And Yi Ting's layout of this small mansion only took more than half an hour.

However, when the group knowledge was just in its infancy, the role of the stronghold was mainly focused on cultivation, so Yi Ting set up a three-grade spirit gathering magic circle in it.

The mere existence of this Spirit Gathering Circle was able to attract a lot of casual cultivators to join.

But Chu Hongchen's principle is that he would rather lack than abuse, and loyalty will be the main consideration, so he would rather absorb a group of young people in their teens to come in and cultivate slowly, rather than directly find some cultivators and stronger ones in order to expand his power.

Yi Ting naturally agrees with this, of course, if you can meet a truly like-minded and trustworthy person, you must also actively win over and not easily miss it.

Therefore, Yi Ting also gave Hu Yan the information of Mu Fengzi, Du Tinglian and others, and if there was a chance, he would recruit them into Hongchen Tower.

Chu Hongchen and Lu Hao and other Zhenwu Seven Masters have reached a consensus, and externally they still use 'Hongchen Tower' as the signboard of the organization, and as for the 'Zhenwu Gate', they will wait until they find a stronghold suitable for the development of the Great Sect.

......

When everything was arranged, Yi Ting and Hu Yan came to the inner hall, and only after the ban was opened did they start to talk about important matters.

Yi Ting took out more than a dozen rings and handed them to Hu Yan, but these rings were all banned by Yi Ting, and special methods were required to open them.

Hu Yan was very curious about what was in it, and of course Yi Ting was so cautious, which made him look forward to it even more.

After taking a moment and learning how to open the ban, Hu Yan couldn't wait to probe his spiritual sense into one of the rings.

Although he had been prepared in his heart, Hu Yan still showed a look of shock on his face.

Of course, the shock was followed by ecstasy, but Yi Ting did not explain it immediately, but waited for him to take a cursory look at all the rings before explaining them together.

It took more than half an hour just to read these storage rings, but in addition to shock and ecstasy, there were many puzzles on Hu Yan's face.

Because there were so many things in it, he had never even seen them!

But even if he didn't know what those things were, he was sure that they were all treasures used above the innate realm, and their value was probably much higher than what he could recognize.

When the inquiring eyes fell on Yi Ting, he began to say:

"One of the more messy rings is the harvest of my destruction of Jade and Villa, as long as you don't use or sell it in Shangyuan County. In addition, there are more than 4,000 low-grade spirit runes in total, all of which are refined by Jingjing himself, these are all life-saving means for you now, but probably not so much, you can partially convert them into spirit stones, it depends on how you use them. ”

Hu Yan didn't show too much surprise when he heard that Yi Ting had destroyed the Jade and Mountain Villa, but when he heard that there were more than 4,000 low-grade spirit runes, and they were also refined by Xia Jingjing, he immediately opened his eyes wide and looked at Xia Jingjing with an expression like looking at a monster.

Hu Yan was not familiar with Xia Jingjing, only that before entering the initial realm of the Divine Domain, she had only cultivated in the early stage of qi refining, except for the beauty of the person, I had not heard of anything special about her.

Unexpectedly, now not only has he advanced to the innate realm, but also become a third-grade seal master, and a third-grade seal master who can refine more than 4,000 low-grade spirit runes should probably not be too far away from advancing to the fourth grade!

It's too hard for a strong man not to be shocked by such nonsense.

"It's all because of Yi Ting's guidance and the materials he provided that I can successfully advance to the ......," Xia Jingjing said shyly with her head down.

"Haha, it's me who is too rude, this is something to be happy about, congratulations to Miss Jingjing for becoming the master of the three-rank seal. Hu Yan realized his gaffe and hurriedly spoke.

However, he thought in his heart that if Lu Yi stayed by Yi Ting's side, he would have advanced to the innate realm, and maybe the alchemy could go further.

But Hu Yan didn't know that Xia Jingjing's cultivation was only one step away, and he was about to enter the late stage of foundation building, and Yi Ting was already in the early stage of the foundation.

Of course, Yi Ting would not take the initiative to reveal it, not because he didn't trust Hu Yan enough, but because he knew that this matter might not be beneficial to him.

Just as Kazama would be hit by the Dao Heart, once anyone knew about it, their confidence in themselves would be shaken somewhat.

Therefore, when he returned to Shangyuan City, the cultivation that Yi Ting showed outside was still only in the early stage of foundation building.

Although there has been a breakthrough in the realm, there is no need to raise the external cultivation. As long as anyone who has seen him make a move, most of them can guess that he is hiding his cultivation.

And he should run into Kazama and the others again in the near future. Although they were scared away by it, they couldn't confirm that the person who crossed the robbery was He Yiting.

Therefore, between the virtual and the real, it is more advantageous to cause their suspicion.

Then Yi Ting continued: "In addition, the large number of tiger-type puppets you have seen, called the Divine Machine Earth Tiger, must be driven by the lower grade spirit stones, and the combat power that can be exerted is equivalent to the early stage of foundation building. However, with your current cultivation, it will take at least three days to refine, but once you have refined, it should not be a problem to control two or three heads at the same time, and it is the best way to increase your combat power in a short period of time. ”

"Divine Tiger...... The initial combat power of the foundation is ...... You can also control more than two or three heads at the same time?!"

Hu Yan was completely stunned, there were thousands of such ungodly things!

This completely solves the problem that their cultivation and combat power are too weak, and it is not just two or three times higher, a divine machine earth tiger in the early stage of foundation building can be at least equivalent to the combat power of ten Qi refining peaks.

In this way, there is no need to shrink back when selling some treasures used in the Qi refining period in the future, and look ahead and backward, which will naturally accelerate the expansion of the organization's power a lot.

But Yi Ting reminded: "Although the Divine Machine Earth Tiger can greatly improve its combat power, it is still a foreign object after all, and the most important thing is its own cultivation, so it is best to refine the two ends as a protective body, otherwise in the long run, it will slow down the development of the force." ”

Yi Ting's words, like a slap in the face, made Hu Yan completely sober up.

He immediately said: "Brother Yi's words are very true, if his own strength cannot be improved, he is not even qualified to keep this puppet army, so it can only be used as a life-saving hole card in times of crisis, and Brother Yi will definitely keep it in mind." ”
