From A Stronghold NPC To The Final BOSS

266 The news spreads

Xiao Hong left.

Just like how he came gently.

The purpose of the other party’s visit was to convey Marquis northcloud’s message.

In this regard.

Naturally, Qin shujian had no reason to refuse.

No matter what, North cloud Manor was still under Marquis North cloud’s jurisdiction. If Yuan sect wanted to develop in North cloud Manor, they could not offend the Imperial court.

Moreover, during this period of time.

Whether it was in the open or in the dark, Marquis northcloud’s residence had given Yuan sect a lot of help.

Furthermore, regardless of Marquis North cloud’s motives, he had some friendship with him so far.

Hence, he agreed to Xiao Hong’s request.

Of course-

The main reason was ...

It was also because Marquis northcloud’s remuneration was not low at all.

Regardless of whether it was a spiritual-level high-grade cultivation technique, a divine-level low-grade martial art, or even a ninth-grade ore, they were all things that Yuan sect needed at the moment.

Especially tier 9 ores.

If used properly, there was a high chance that it would be equivalent to a superior-grade spirit weapon.

As for the reward ...

Marquis North cloud must have known about his identity as a blacksmith Grandmaster.

However, compared to the reward that the other party had given him, what Xiao Hong had said at the end was more to Qin shujian’s liking.

the coordinates of the teleportation gates of the major cities in the Liangshan spirit domain. It seems like my identity as an array master is really useful!

Qin shujian thought to himself.

The coordinates of the teleportation gate that Xiao Hong had mentioned naturally could not be the coordinates of the inner city.

Generally, cities with teleportation gates had two coordinates. One was the inner city, which was only for people from the Imperial court to come and go. It was the most important place.

The other one was not in the inner city, for the use of some people in the cultivation world.

But even so ...

There were very few sects that were qualified to obtain the coordinates of the city.

This was a great thing for sky origin sect.

Because this meant ...

If a teleportation gate was opened in Liangshan city, it would be connected to all the other teleportation gates in the Liangshan spirit domain. This way, Liangshan city would be several times more prosperous.

However, the news that Xiao Hong brought ...

It also made Qin shujian realize something.

That was, other than opening the teleportation gate in Liangshan city, he had also opened the teleportation gate in the blue cloud sect and several other sects. This was to prevent these sects that had paid the money from being quietly destroyed.

If the clear sky sect and the other sects were destroyed, the businesses under their names would also be scattered. Even the yuan sect would not be able to take over all of them, and even if they did, it would require a huge amount of manpower and resources.

In comparison.

Qin shujian was more willing to receive a stable income of 24 million taels of silver every year.

But now ...

However, he did not have the idea of opening a teleportation gate for the other sects. Instead, he wanted to replace it with other means. In addition, he also recalled the spiritual God Realm cultivators who were in charge of the twelve sects.

On the other side.

The news that Yuan sect was going to hold a competition in Liangshan city in three months spread like wildfire.

As for the rewards of the competition, they were even more tempting.

It didn’t matter if he became a revered elder of Yuan sect.

It was a great opportunity for blacksmiths and array Masters to listen to Qin shujian’s lecture.

However, if he really compared them ...

The former was obviously more important than the latter.

If he could take this opportunity to enter the sky origin sect and become a revered elder, he would definitely be able to obtain more in the future.

The former was a long-term development.

The latter was a one-time benefit.

As long as they didn’t have any ulterior motives, most of them were here for the opportunity to become a revered elder of Yuan sect.

As for the news of sky origin sect’s opening of its gates and its recruitment of disciples, it spread along with the news of the competition.

Instantly.

Even the North cloud Manor was shaken.

“The mountain Gate is open to recruit disciples!” In Liangshan city, Guan queye was originally tasting food and wine in a restaurant. When he heard the news, he was stunned. He immediately stood up and said, “”Waiter, bill please!”

“Sir, it’s a total of one tael and two coins!”

“There’s no need to look.”

...

Guan queye threw down three or four taels of silver and left the restaurant without looking back.

In the past, he had to leave.

They either left immediately after putting down the silver or left without even paying the bill.

The main thing was that with his vision, he rarely put these things in his eyes. If things went well, he would give more. If things didn’t go well, he would just leave. How could a person from a small restaurant dare to compete with a cultivator?

However ...

This was Liangshan city.

It wasn’t that Guan queye had never seen this before. Some cultivators were too arrogant or used to being overbearing in the past and couldn’t change their ways in a short time. After the incident, they were directly invited to the city’s law-enforcement officers.

As for the outcome!

Then there was no need to say more.

Most of the law-enforcement officers in other cities would only be taught a lesson, and the more serious ones would be sent to prison or something.

But Liangshan city was different.

...

No matter big or small, as long as they dared to cause trouble here, they would be killed on the spot without any room for negotiation.

Such an iron-blooded method naturally caused the complaints of many cultivators.

However, no one dared to say anything. After all, the Grandmaster who was comparable to a Deva realm cultivator was still here. Even if a divine martial realm cultivator came, they would have to stay put.

Over time.

After word of Liangshan city’s ruthless methods spread, the entire city’s style changed.

No matter who he was in the past, he had to follow the rules of Liangshan city when he came here.

Guan queye wasn’t used to it at first, but she forced herself to adapt.

Because he was not used to it.

They were all dead.

After leaving Liangshan city, the pass made a beeline for zhengu city.

Because Liangshan city did not have a teleportation gate, if he wanted to use the teleportation gate, he would have to go to other cities.

As an elder of the northern spiritual region’s Guan family, Guan queye was quite passionate about the art of formations. After hearing that Qin shujian was a Grandmaster in the art of formations, he couldn’t care about anything else and immediately headed to the Liangshan spirit region. He only hoped to see the Grandmaster.

Unfortunately ...

He had been in Liangshan city for a while, but he hadn’t even been able to enter the mountain Gate of Yuan sect, much less see Qin shujian.

In this regard.

Although Guan queye was anxious, she still suppressed her own impulse.

He had planned to stay in Liangshan city for a while until the competition began.

However, news of the sect opening suddenly came from sky origin sect.

However, Guan queye had no choice but to leave temporarily and return to his family.

The northern spiritual region was huge.

In other words, the Liangshan spiritual domain under their feet was also within the northern spiritual domain. Strictly speaking, this was where the northern spiritual domain was located.

However, if they were to be split up, the northern spiritual great domain would be divided into the mortal domain, true domain, and even spirit domain.

All the way until the last part, where there were no so-called shackles.

It was the true core of the northern spiritual region.

And the Guan family.

Even a great clan in the core of the northern spiritual region had a divine martial realm great cultivator at its peak. However, as time passed, their strongest person was only a prominent divine realm great cultivator.

But even so ...

The Guan family also had quite a reputation in the northern spiritual region.

Other than that.

The Guan family also had some connections with the big sects in the northern spiritual region. They also had a powerful force supporting them from behind. The price for this was that the Guan family had to send a group of geniuses into the big sects every few years to become the hub of the relationship between the two.

But this time.

However, Guan queye had other thoughts.

In terms of power, the sects in the big regions were the most powerful, but this was not absolute. Occasionally, there would be some exceptions.

And now.

The appearance of Yuan Zong was an exception in his eyes.

A sect with a Grandmaster in array Dao, even if it only existed in the spirit domain, was by no means comparable to a sect in a large domain.

Guan queye calculated the days. It was very close to the time when the Guan clan would once again send their young descendants to the great sects.

However, now that Yuan sect was about to open their sect gates, he suddenly had the thought of using this opportunity to send some of the Guan family’s descendants into Yuan sect.

This way ...

If he could succeed ...

That way, the Guan family would also be able to establish a relationship with Yuan sect.

Of course.

This matter had to be done in secret.

If it was exposed, it would no doubt offend the original sect.

The various forces in Liangshan city were complicated. Most of the people who came had their own respective forces behind them.

After the news of Yuan sect’s opening of the sect gates spread ...

Immediately, many people had the same thought as Guan queye.

Things were different now.

Before Qin shujian revealed that he was a Grandmaster in the art of formations, when a great sect in a spirit domain opened its doors to recruit disciples, it could only affect a few spirit domains at most.

Even if the other party was the domain master of the spirit domain, the most he could do was to expand the area of influence.

However, after revealing his identity as a Grandmaster of formations ...

The news of Yuan sect’s sect-opening was no longer limited to just one Prefecture or one region.

After the news spread, many people immediately sent out the news in various ways.

There were even more.

Like a pass, he left Liangshan city and rushed to where his forces were.

For the sake of ...

They wanted to be able to send the younger generation disciples of their respective powers into the gates of Yuan sect when it opened.

To be able to join a sect that had a Grandmaster powerhouse was undoubtedly equivalent to joining a top force that had a Deva realm cultivator.

Such a force.

There were only a handful of them in the entire thirteen constabularies of the great Zhao.

Compared to Yuan sect ...

These sects might not have a chance to open their gates for decades or even centuries, but at the same time, once these forces opened their gates, it would also cause a commotion from all directions.

This was the influence of a top sect.

It was something that all the great sects in the spirit domain and even the sects in the ordinary large domains didn’t have.

Such a sect.

Each of them had thousands of years of history, and some of them even had a history longer than the great Zhao dynasty.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Yuan sect had an existence like Qin shujian ...

Under normal circumstances, even after a few hundred or a thousand years, one might not be able to reach that kind of sect.

Not to mention standing shoulder to shoulder with him.

Just as the news of Yuan sect’s opening spread, the sects that had taken over the eight sects ‘resources finally sent people to the Liangshan spirit domain to pay their respects to the colossal Yuan sect.
