This is a story about relying on clones to cause trouble, seize resources, and seek immortality.
Clones suffer, they're either causing trouble or on their way to cause trouble.

Qin Bao stayed in Yuying Mansion for nearly three months.
He spent a large amount of spirit stones and had a casual cultivator deliver first-level monster flesh and blood from the city to his temporary cave dug in the mountains every day.
If the cultivator had not seen that the amount of spirit stones given was large, he would probably not have dared to do so, for fear that this was some kind of evil cultivator.
With the spiritual stones in place, it is easy for monks to overcome their fear.
The more valuable every inch of land is in the immortal city, the more the cultivators desire spiritual stones and spiritual crystals, and the more alienated the spiritual stones and spiritual crystals become to them.
Especially the lower-level monks.
Just like this casual cultivator at the first level of foundation building. He has just built his foundation and there are only a few mice running away from his storage bag. He does not have any coins. Thousands of spirit stones are placed in front of him, but they are just a gift of flesh and blood to monsters.
He will convince himself of all the unreasonable things.
Of course Qin Bao is not a demon cultivator.
He just needs a function similar to an alarm clock, or a kind of verification.
He didn't dare to go into the city, especially after hearing that the Holy Emperor was in the process of breaking through to the God Transformation stage, he was even more afraid to go.
In the entire dynasty, no one understands the Holy Emperor better than him.
No one knew the plans of the first Holy Emperor better than him.
Now that he has understood everything, how can he get deeper into it?
So he dug a cave in the wild mountains far away from the city.
God knows what the formation looks like when it is activated, but he can't remain isolated from the news.
What if the communication talisman I send to others is blocked when the formation is activated?
Then just let a monk come to sign in regularly, and require it to be delivered before noon every day. If not, no payment will be made.
This job is easy, there is no danger, and it is located in the city. You can even make some money from the difference in buying the flesh and blood of monsters.
The price difference was also specially designed by Qin Bao to give him enough benefits.
No independent cultivator who has just broken through the foundation-building stage would give up such an opportunity.
Therefore, if the monk does not show up for three consecutive days, then if nothing unexpected happens, then something unexpected must have happened.
He can go to the provincial capital to take a look. In three days, the danger will be reduced a lot.
At noon, a young monk landed on the platform in front of Qin Bao's cave residence from a flying sword.
"Senior, I'll put today's spirit beast here for you."
"Okay, got it. This is your spirit stone."
The shining spirit stones lined up in a straight line and flew out of the cave.
"Senior, I may not be able to deliver it to you tomorrow."
"Hmm?" A golden elixir pressure appeared around the cave.
"Don't be upset, senior. The city has issued a notice that the Saint Emperor has successfully broken through. They are going to hold a grand feast in the city and distribute elixirs to celebrate for the whole world. I... don't want to miss out on the feast."
"That's understandable."
The pressure from the golden elixir disappeared.
"By the way, Senior, the notice also says that if a cultivator in the Golden Core Realm can enter the core area, he can enjoy third-level spiritual food and wine, and elixirs will also be distributed."
"I won't go."
"Then, Senior, I won't disturb your practice any more. I'll take my leave now."
Qin Bao's mind moved and he thought of the old demon.
"You and I are destined to be together. I will give you a chance. Before the banquet starts tomorrow, come find me. I will give you a spirit crystal. Go to Bibo Mansion, where you can find the way to your future."
"Thank you, Senior."
On the way back, the foundation-building cultivator looked conflicted. He wanted spirit crystals. Although he had earned a lot of spirit crystals in these days, he had not earned a single spirit crystal.
But he also wanted the spiritual food and the elixir that increased his magic power.
It's so rare that the dynasty is so kind and gives us free stuff. How nice!
He was in a dilemma, but he stepped on the flying sword and turned into a stream of light and flew towards the city.
Qin Bao looked at the Foundation Establishment cultivator walking away, thinking about the feast of spiritual food.
The old thing is really big.
There is no good banquet.
Free is the most expensive.
He was still thinking about how to gather these monks outside the city, and he never expected this trick to happen.
Taking advantage of the Saint Emperor's breakthrough, we can catch them all in one swoop.
As for what choice this monk makes, he doesn't care and respects the fate of others.
He felt secretly happy that he could give people opportunities casually, unlike before when he had some plans or his own little thoughts.
But what is opportunity? It is an opportunity only if you seize it. If you fail to seize it, it will be someone else's opportunity.
He looked in the direction of Bibo Mansion again.
Wu Yanying should know what to do.
The distant Bibo Mansion.
At the gate of the military camp outside the city.
The new Lord of the Palace personally invited the Ninth Prince's wife, the Emperor's grandson, and everyone in the camp to come into the city and join the ordinary cultivators in the feast, to congratulate the Saint Emperor on his breakthrough.
This is an order from the Imperial City, requiring all military camps to follow the order and enter the city to celebrate.
"Commander-in-chief, the Lord has arrived outside the camp gate."
"Tell him that before the banquet begins, we will dress up and show the style of our imperial soldiers."
After handing over the talisman, the Lord of the Mansion left with a bit of admiration.
Commander Wu really knows how to seize the opportunity. No wonder he was able to seamlessly take over the position from Lord Qin.
He also considered whether he should do something to show off the style of the officials in the city.
This kind of situation might be reported to the Holy Emperor.
Wouldn't he be able to show his face?
This is doable!
Xia Cheng sent the Lord away and returned to the big tent. "Sir, do you need to prepare some colorful streamers, flower petals, etc.?"
Wu Yanying looked at Xia Cheng strangely.
"What on earth is going on in your mind?"
"Ah? Aren't we going to demonstrate my bandit-suppression army tomorrow?"
"Notify everyone to assemble tonight and board the flying boat to leave the island."
"Sir? We'll need to do it tomorrow..."
"Military affairs are urgent. There is urgent military information."
"How come I didn't know about the military intelligence? Is one of the personal guards going to replace me?" Xia Cheng muttered softly.
"Go get some work done, stop daydreaming and talking nonsense."
A talisman flew in front of Xia Cheng, interrupting his thoughts.
"Yes, sir. I'll go right away."
Wu Yanying now completely agrees with Qin Xu's evaluation of Xia Cheng. This kid always thinks about unnecessary things.
How do you say that word? Brain supplement, yes, it means love to imagine.
Wu Yanying stood up and walked to a tent at the end of the military camp, where the "Holy Mother" and "Maitreya" were temporarily staying.
"Our Lady."
"Protector Wu, what's the matter?" Huang Yunling stood up and replied.
As for the Nascent Soul cultivators, she was very respectful when it came to daily affairs that did not involve the sect.
"Something has happened in the Imperial City. We have to spend the night on the lake. I plan to disperse the Guardians of the Church in the name of fighting the rebels and station them on the islands of the Bi Bo Lake."
"This way we can delay for a while and observe the situation to see what happens next."
"What happened?" Huang Yunling's eyes became sharp.
"The Holy Emperor has achieved a breakthrough to the Divine Transformation stage."
Yes, now that the Saint Emperor has made a breakthrough, will he still appoint a crown prince?
If there is no crown prince, how do we deal with the forces created by the princes below?
When it comes to taking back power, military power is the first to be taken.
Wu Yanying's approach makes some sense, but it only treats the symptoms and not the root cause.
"It's fine to take them out tonight, but we have to create a big battle and select some elite soldiers to lie in wait. If someone comes to take over the bandit suppression army, these soldiers protecting the religion will be reported dead in the battle."
"The Virgin Mary is so thoughtful. I'll go and make some arrangements and pick you up in the evening."
After receiving a positive answer, Wu Yanying left the military camp.
He returned to his tent and curled his lips.
If she hadn't come to this military camp and wasn't going to leave, would she have to make up reasons or excuses?
She had seen that formation before, and although she didn't know its specific function, she didn't want to have anything to do with it at all.
All the monks were called into the city, and even the soldiers were required to enter the city, and then he thought of the blood energy flying in the sky at a glance in the core formation.
She shuddered a little.
After Huang Yunling sent Wu Yanying to the entrance of the tent, she did not return to the tent immediately.
Instead, he looked in the direction of the imperial city.
Now that the Saint Emperor has successfully broken through, will there still be a fight for the throne?
That feeling has basically disappeared recently.
Could that inexplicable sense of danger come from the Imperial City? From the Holy Emperor?
Deep underground in the imperial city, in a huge lake of blood.
A ho-ho-ho laugh was heard.
"Finally, we have to take the last step."
He waited for a hundred more years without urging anyone, just to increase his chances of success a little bit. He didn't know how much spiritual blood was needed to advance to the purple corpse, but more was always better.
If the old lion had not warned him, he might have issued some policies that could increase the number of monks, but his unfilial descendants might have waited a little longer.
"This blood lake and the monks of this dynasty should be enough."
"Let all of them become my nourishment!"
