Time has passed, more than a year has passed in a blink of an eye, and the Qinglian Valley dominated by Qinglian is full of thriving vitality.

In one year, Li Shi's most important food problem has been solved, and it has to be said that Li Shi believes that the cultivation level of Shuhe is definitely the best in the world. It's not that there are no people who are better at the wood system Dao than Shu He, but they can develop formations and Dao techniques for mortals like Shu He...... All kinds of skills, so that mortals can plant a higher harvest of monks, is just Shu He, compared to Li Shi, a guy who just moves his mouth, Shu He is the one who has worked hard to study and spread.

And I don't know if it's Li Shi's illusion, Shuhe's temperament has become different, there is an indescribable temperament, as if the ethereal temperament of the immortal and the pragmatism of the old farmer are mixed in Shuhe, but it gives people a feeling of no conflict.

Li Shi was not surprised by this change in temperament, because the person in front of him was Shu He, and what he did was Lingzhi.

Spiritual plant monks are the easiest to enter the realm of the unity of heaven and man, and they are also the easiest to enlighten, which is the most difficult to compare with other types of monks, and Shu He, as a spiritual seed of enlightenment, will be more sensitive to the avenue of comprehension, every time he is planted for Shu He, it is his practice, although he is still only a cultivator in the early stage of the Jindan period, but Li Shi feels that if he really treats Shu He as an ordinary Jindan monk, he will definitely suffer a big loss, Li Shi has also asked Shu He, what adventures have he bumped into during this time, and what treasures have he eaten!

Shu He just smiled indifferently and replied, watching the mortals harvest pieces of golden grain, watching the mortals smile happily because of the grain harvest, watching the mortals carefully select the fullest grains and pretend to be a bucket, and respectfully contributing to themselves, he seemed to have some understanding, maybe as Li Shi said, the existence of mortals is not just an incidental of monks.

However, for Li Shi, Shuhe did not stagnate his cultivation because of the management of agriculture, but made greater progress than normal meditation and cultivation, which is the most important thing for monks, although Shuhe may be just a special case, and Li Shi does not know the reason, but for Li Shi, he can indeed rest assured that he can completely let go of agriculture to Shuhe.

And with Shuhe Ganzhiruo managing agriculture, Li Shi was also slightly relieved, with grain in his hands, the road formation planned by Li Shi was quickly paved. Of course, in just one year, only the main arterial road was built, leading directly to the important areas within the Qinglian Valley, such as the Linggu Plain, the Lingzhi Garden, various docks, etc., which surrounded the entire Qinglian Valley like a spider web. Of course, the vast majority of these roads are just mortal roads, and if you want to use the formation method to turn all these roads into formation patterns, it still needs time and the investment of formation materials, and the construction war department of Qiuyu is still working overtime to catch up!

At this time, Li Shi was discussing the next formation layout with the four of them, including the Imperial Array, the Bamboo Cyclamen and Qiu Yu, Li Shi said, "Our first-layer formation construction spirit gathering array has laid the foundation, and the rest just need to let the construction war department build it step by step, but based on the spirit gathering array, we can lay the second layer of formation, master, lieshi, Qiu Yu, what do you think, is it offensive, defensive, or both, or auxiliary, but it's all talk!"

"Isn't it possible to use the formation that was used in the Qinggu Realm again?!" Hearing Li Shi's words, the Lie Imperial Array couldn't help but say.

"The formations that have been used, it's okay to say otherwise, but for Tianxing, to be honest, I'm not optimistic!" Li Shi shook his head, "It's not that I look down on ourselves, if we compare the foundation of the formation, our Kunlun is too far behind Tianxing!"

"Indeed, since the Celestial Star has been established in the Formation Dao, it has always been called the top of the Formation Dao, and it has an unfathomable background in the Formation Dao, if we arrange the formation mainly for defense or stalemate, I am afraid that it will be destroyed by the Celestial Star Monk!"

"If that's the case, I'm afraid of ordinary offensive attacks, as well as the variants of the Spirit Gathering Array we have arranged in the Qinggu Realm, I'm afraid it won't make much sense, only the outbreak of the battle can cause them enough damage!" Qiu Yu said.

"The outbreak of the battle of Gongqi......" Everyone heard Qiu Yu's words, but they all hesitated and hesitated.

Maybe theoretically it has a perfect formation, but under the limited level of materials and formation attainments, the vast majority of formation mages can only choose the formation, and the so-called formation with amazing explosive power will inevitably pay the price of weakening in other aspects, and more importantly, this is like a double-edged sword like a divine weapon, hurting others and hurting themselves!

"Our Qinglian has no extra choice, we can only gamble!" Li Shi took a deep breath and was about to say something, but at this time, he saw Du Ying hurrying over, facing Li Shi and the others, "Kunlun...... The Kunlun Sword has arrived!"

"Sword Envoy?!" Hearing this, the four people who were discussing the second-layer formation structure looked at each other, and couldn't help but come outside immediately, but saw Ji Zizhan leisurely drinking spiritual tea, watching the arrival of the four people and saying hello to each other.

"Kunlun Sword Envoy, I don't know what happened to my Qinglian branch this time!" After greetings, the bamboo cyclamen asked.

"This time, Zi Zhan will go to the birthday banquet of the Great Monk of Tianxing Yulongzi on behalf of Kunlun, because most of the Tianxing monks are proficient in the formation path, and the head of my Kunlun formation path is none other than the elder of the Imperial Array, I heard that the elder has been a guest in the Qinglian branch, so come and look for it!"

"This ......" Lie Yu Array couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard this, this news was indeed beyond the expectations of Lie Yu Array.

This time it was Ji Zizhan, the Kunlun sword envoy, who personally invited himself, which can be said to have given him enough face, plus the attraction of Tianxing to any formation mage can be said to be undoubted, in this case, it is impossible to say that he has not the slightest interest, and on the other hand, the guardian formation of this Qinglian branch has not been completely determined, how can he leave with confidence, thinking of this, the imperial array can't help but say, "Can I bring a few Kunlun disciples!"

"You can!" Ji Zizhan heard the words of the Lie Imperial Array, but nodded at the Lie Imperial Array and said, "I came suddenly, but I will stay here for about a week, so Lie Lao doesn't need to be in a hurry, you can deal with your own affairs first." ”

"Kunlun Sword Envoy, it's better for me Qinglian to arrange a place to stay, how about I take you to Qinglian to enjoy the scenery around Qinglian these days!" Li Shi saw that the matter was almost discussed, but he stood up and said to Ji Zizhan.

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your orders, and ask Senior Brother Li to lead the way!" Hearing Li Shi's words, Ji Zizhan did not refuse.

Soon, Li Shi first accompanied Ji Zizhan to settle down, and returned to the council hall, but saw that the Bamboo Cyclamen, Lie Yuzhen and Qiu Yu were all here, as if waiting for him, Li Shi thought for a moment and said, "Master, but there is something!"

"Hmm!" the bamboo cyclamen nodded and said, "I discussed with the Lieshi, this time the Lieshi went to the Celestial Star this time, you and Qiu Yu both followed, the Celestial Star is a great sect of the Formation Dao, if you have not been to the Celestial Star as a formation mage, it will be a pity after all!"

"Then Master, what about you?!" Li Shi was slightly stunned when he heard the words of the bamboo immortal, if Li Shi was not interested in going to the Heavenly Star, it would be impossible, but Li Shi did not expect that the Bamboo Immortal recommended himself and Qiu Yu to go, but he had no plans to go, if the attraction of the Heavenly Star was not big for the monk, it was impossible, so Li Shi couldn't help but ask!

"I'm the sect master of the Qinglian branch after all, and I can't leave here easily at this moment!" Bamboo Immortal smiled slightly, but said, "As for you, since you released the strategy for the development of Qinglian, most of the time you haven't handed over the government affairs to Zhang Changge and them, now take advantage of the fact that you have nothing to do to go to Tianxing to take a look, and go to see the pinnacle of the current formation path!"

"Yes, Master!" Li Shi couldn't help but say respectfully to the bamboo cyclamen when he heard the bamboo cyclamen's words.

With a decision, Li Shi began to arrange the affairs after his departure, although the role of the bamboo cyclamen in administrative work may not be only the role of the Pitu seal, but simply compared to the administrative ability, it is still necessary to rely on Zhang Changge and others.

Originally, Li Shi wanted to take Liu Ming with him, but in the end, Liu Ming said that he wanted to go out to practice a peerless school, and he needed to retreat for three years, so he pushed this opportunity away, Li Shi considered that there would definitely be a vicious battle within five years, and Liu Ming had one more mastery, which was equivalent to one more hole card for himself, but what Li Shi didn't expect was that although he wanted to give Liu Ming enough resources and hoped to help him, Liu Ming took the initiative to refuse, and floated away with his bare hands!

Losing Liu Ming, a powerful guy in the Jindan period, Li Shi's eyes rolled, but he found Liao Changyu, who had signed a deed of sale for ten years, hoping that Liao Changyu could go to Tianyi with him, but Liao Changyu did not refuse this.

It is not clear how much strength Liao Changyu has now, but from the fact that the name "Killing Flying Feather" has spread from time to time among the alien races, coupled with the fact that there is a famous Fifth Vein Cangshui Monk on his battle record, it is obviously not a good class!

And Liao Changyu didn't have any objection to going to Tianxing, and even had a little eagerness to try.

Liao Changyu was confirmed, and after Li Shi asked Guo Zui, Guo Zui was also willing to follow, and he also brought Du Ying and his war department about 100 people, although Du Ying's war department may not be very good in frontal combat, but it has rich experience in fighting behind enemy lines in the Qinggu realm, at least in the enemy's Forte, even if there is something wrong with these more than 100 people, they can also maneuver one or two.

Of course, there are so many people who follow Li Shi, but Ji Zizhan has also turned a blind eye, but the main vein of Kunlun does not provide everyone with a shuttle to ride, and everyone can only take the shuttle of the Qinglian branch and follow the main vein.

The main reason why Li Shi brought Guo Zui and Du Ying was because he wanted to arrange the information network in Tianxing, and his previous nest in the Baiyi Realm was beyond his reach, but this time he went to Qinglian and arranged the information network easily, but it was the most important thing for Qinglian, at least if he knew more about Tianxing, he would have more certainty!

So from this point of view, not riding the same shuttle with Ji Zizhan is also in line with Li Shi's heart.

After doing this series of things, Li Shi took Ji Zizhan out of Qinglian Valley to hang out and enjoy the scenery of Qinglian.

Qinglian Valley is completely different from other cities of Kunlun forces that Ji Zizhan has seen, this difference is not in how wonderful the surrounding scenery is, but in the mortals in Qinglian Valley, but so vibrant, he just feels that the mortals here seem to be full of hope and vitality, and do their part for the future of Kunlun.

"What are these people doing!" Ji Zizhan saw a place where people gathered, but he couldn't help but ask.

"Recruiting workers, or building roads, or paving bridges, and even recruiting people to farm in the past!" Li Shi said.

"This is lively, in Kunlun Mountain, and even in other cities, I have never seen such a scene!" Ji Zizhan looked at the scene of the crowd of people actively participating, but at this moment, he couldn't help but sigh, "These people are really different!"

"People are the same, but the way they treat people is different!" Li Shi said, "They are our Qinglian's reliance!"

"Rely on ......" Ji Zizhan couldn't help but smile when he heard Li Shi's words, and said, "This world is so unfair, for example, the total number of mortals is a thousand times that of our monks, but in front of the monks, it is not worth mentioning after all, the number of casual cultivators is ten times that of the sect monks, but they are fragile, maybe their number is indeed numerous, but they are just ants after all! Relying on ants is too ridiculous. Li Shi, these ants are not Qinglian's reliance, the sect is!"

"I really want to rely on the sect, but the Qinglian that I used to hope for in the sect has been destroyed?!" Li Shi smiled coldly and said.

Ji Zizhan heard Li Shi's words, and couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, he could feel the resentment in Li Shi's tone, not so much for the sect, but more for Ji Zizhan himself, after all, the battle of the Changfeng Realm was commanded by Ji Zizhan!

"Please forgive me, I'm a little overemotional!" Li Shi took a deep breath, his joy and anger were invisible, Li Shi couldn't do it now, but he knew that his attitude towards Ji Zizhan was problematic, and after Li Shi found out, he was also willing to take the initiative to admit his mistakes.

When Ji Zizhan heard Li Shi's words, he was not angry at ridicule, but said with a calm expression, "We are Kunlun monks, and we speak with our swords!"
