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.

The amount of these low-level refining materials is a bit too large.
Cheng Ping'an was a little scratching his head. It wasn't that he couldn't find it, but it was difficult to collect. This thing wasn't like some magical herbs or medicines that could be found in the demon world. It required special demon beasts to dig it underground.
"Does Brother Cheng have any questions?" Seeing Cheng Ping'an frowning, Venerable Duan Yan asked.
Indeed, after looking at this list, he felt that his own sect was asking for too much. It was fine to include the menial workers in the mountains, but even the menial workers recruited by the external weapon refiners from the Immortal City were included. It was really a bit...
He felt that if Cheng Ping'an was in a difficult position, he could lower the price. He could have accepted the original two portions!
"The amount of this low-level material... Wait!"
Cheng Ping'an was just about to say that the quantity was a bit large and might not be gathered together in a short time, when he suddenly thought of something. The demon world had these things but they needed to be dug up now, but there was one place where they were not needed!
The sea creatures of the inland sea!
Those houses were all built with the raw spiritual ore!
"Fellow Daoist Duan Yan, it's alright, let's leave it at that! I'll go find the materials, you guys make the preparations!"
Cheng Ping'an's eyes lit up, and after he finished speaking, he stood up and left.
After Venerable Duan Yan and his companions sent Cheng Ping'an out of the mountain gate, they all sighed with admiration. They said that Jinghu was very wealthy, but they didn't know where these spiritual ores came from. It would be great if they had such a channel.
"It seems that the matter between the Holy Dynasty and the Divine Talisman Immortal Sect is really related to them. This spiritual mine is probably stained with blood."
Venerable Duan Yan looked at his junior brother's angry expression and rolled his eyes. "Everyone has gone far away."
"Ha, I'm telling you this, brother."
Venerable Duan Yan flipped his hands and two more spiritual ores appeared. "Come, tell me now, which of these two pieces of material is clean and which one is stained with blood?"
Seeing that his junior fellow disciple did not speak, Venerable Duan Yan put away the ore and said, "Times have changed. The ten thousand year period is approaching. We can't care about so many things."
After saying this, Venerable Duan Yan put his hands behind his back and walked up the mountain.
His junior fellow apprentice gave a bitter smile. Who said his senior apprentice was dull and indifferent? He was very clear-headed about things!
Cheng Ping'an was unaware of the interaction between the two in front of the mountain gate. He had already flown very far away and did not take the teleportation array because he remembered that on the list given to him, there was a family force nearby that had the auxiliary materials for refining the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
The Bai family of Qingshi Immortal City is a family of incarnation. The ancestor of the family, Bai Mo, has the cultivation level of the pinnacle of incarnation.
My ancestor was once an inner disciple of the Shengong Immortal Sect. However, due to an accidental damage to his foundation while refining a spiritual weapon, he had no choice but to leave the sect and founded his own family in Qingshi Immortal City.
Relying on his original relationship with the inner sect and his good craftsmanship, he quickly gained a foothold in Qingshi Immortal City and grew stronger. He survived for thousands of years under the protection of the Immortal Sect and could be said to have a solid foundation.
The children in the family are all engaged in business related to refining equipment. They will accept jobs that the Shengong Xianzong looks down upon. Of course, the tribute once every ten years and the usual interpersonal exchanges are indispensable.
Patriarch Bai Mo is the grandson of the inner disciple back then. He has abundant resources for cultivation and successfully reached the Nascent Soul stage. After passing the tribulation of longevity, he has become a figurehead in Qingshi Immortal City.
Everything was going very smoothly. He had the ambition to break through and become a Venerable, but he also knew it was very difficult, so his focus was mostly on his family, hoping to cultivate a genius in refining equipment to join the Shengong Immortal Sect, so that the family would not decline when he was gone.
"You little brats only know how to bully others in the Immortal City by using the name of my Bai family. Sooner or later, my Bai family will be defeated by you!"
Normally, he would teach the younger generations of the family personally, especially after they had passed the life tribulation. When he was a child, he had heard stories from his grandfather about how this force or that family disappeared because of the incompetence of their younger generations. He still remembered them clearly.
Moreover, he had personally witnessed many such incidents in his life, and had even participated in several such incidents.
It was always the younger generations who caused trouble outside, and the elders in the family had to deal with it step by step, until they were finally taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives, who ganged up on them and then shared the spoils.
Just like the Bai family, which was originally just one of several families in Qingshi Immortal City. Now looking back, the other families have disappeared here, and only the Bai family remains standing, and even reaches a higher level. This is because my grandfather, who came out of the Great Immortal Gate, educated them well, and has good family precepts and rules!
He is a bit obsessed with this.
"You shouldn't be focusing on jealousy right now. You are just a bunch of skeletons. You should focus on refining weapons. This is the foundation of your future cultivation!"
"Besides, after hundreds or thousands of years, those beauties will no longer exist. Only your cultivation and weapon refining can accompany you for the rest of your life."
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and a tall woman walked in. However, she walked in a somewhat mechanical way and could not speak.
"Help me keep an eye on these brats, and I'll break their legs if they run out again!"
Several young monks all had sad faces. This woman was a spiritual weapon puppet refined by the ancestor at the snap of a button. Although she still needed to be controlled by monks, she could sometimes complete some simple commands.
And he was very stubborn. When he said he would break the legs, he really meant it!
At this moment, a voice sounded in the main room, "Huh? This puppet is quite interesting!"
Cheng Ping'an suddenly appeared in the center of the lobby, circling around the spirit puppet.
In the world of cultivation, Cheng Ping'an had never heard of a spiritual weapon that could give birth to spiritual intelligence. At most, it could have some spirituality, which was considered extraordinary.
Moreover, those who can give birth to spirituality are all nurtured by their own magic power and even essence and blood.
The spirituality is still very weak.
It can be seen that this puppet has not been nurtured for too long, but it does have some spirituality, a bit like a staff-making robot.
Cheng Pingan can be more casual, but the Bai family doesn't dare to.
Your home is the core of your life, and when a stranger suddenly appears, how can you not be scared?
Patriarch Bai Mo waved his hand and rolled the little kids behind him. "Senior, I wonder who you are..."
Qingshi Immortal City has a defensive formation, and his Bai family also has a defensive formation, but there was no reaction at all. The person in front of him was at least a Venerable.
Cheng Pingan didn't look back, still looking at the puppet with interest, "Jinghu, Cheng Pingan."
He casually gave his name, "Can you, a spirit puppet, serve tea and water?"
"Bai family, Bai Mo pays respect to Venerable Ping An!" Several boys from the Bai family also hurriedly followed suit and bowed.
Cheng Pingan waved his hand and asked again, "Can this serve tea and water?"
"Yes! Yes! There is no problem for this spirit puppet to do some daily servant work."
Bai Mo didn't know why this big guy suddenly came to visit.
