"General, it's all ready."
An hour later, many experts at the Innate and Divine Platform levels had sorted out the contents of more than 200,000 storage bags and thousands of storage rings.
He sorted everything out and put it into different storage rings, then handed it over to General Wei.
General Wei then handed it to Lu Tao, saying, "Young Master Lu, thank you very much."
At this moment, General Wei was not as serious as before; instead, his speech carried a hint of that of an ordinary cultivator.
He thanked Lu Tao on behalf of all the soldiers.
"General Wei, there's no need to be so polite."
Lu Tao smiled, took a bunch of storage rings, then took out a pile of spirit stones, packed them up, and handed them to Wei Sheng, saying, "General Wei, I'll leave the child's matter to you."
"Alright, Young Master Lu, rest assured," General Wei said.
Kong Hao suddenly reminded him, "Three days. Lu Tao can only stay in Mufeng City for a maximum of three days. After three days, we will set off together for Yongkang Prefecture. You should hurry up and send the child to the Immortal Sect. We won't wait for you if you miss this time."
With a large number of powerful experts in Mufeng City, there's not much to worry about from assassinations by the Ancient Barbarian Kingdom.
However, it was not as safe as Yongkang Prefecture, so Kong Hao was not only reminding others to hurry up, but also reminding Lu Tao to use these three days to handle the matters in Mufeng City.
General Wei and the others nodded silently upon hearing this.
Several people even hurriedly asked General Wei for leave so they could go home and pick up their children.
General Wei naturally granted permission, and at the same time arranged for dozens of innate experts to go in different directions to select disciples for Lu Tao.
It was already past midnight.
Once the matter was settled, Lu Tao didn't linger.
"Farewell, everyone!"
After Lu Tao and General Wei exchanged a trace of their divine imprints using the communication bead, they bid farewell to everyone.
They flew towards Mufeng City together with Kong Hao and the others.
"Goodbye, Young Master Lu!"
"Goodbye, Master Kong!"
Watching Lu Tao's departing figure, someone in the crowd suddenly said, "For some reason, I suddenly have a premonition."
What premonition?
The man said, "I feel as if I have missed some opportunity, not me, but my child."
"You didn't join the Immortal Sect?"
The man said, "Probably, but judging from Young Master Lu's appearance, it seems he wants to recruit disciples. Can he really teach them all?"
He had some doubts.
"Why think so much? You already decided not to let the child join the Immortal Sect. Are you really going to shamelessly send the child there now?"
"That's true."
That's what I said, but that premonition kept lingering in my mind.
"Alright, let's collect the bodies."
Next, the garrison army collected all the corpses from the battlefield and cremated them.
Instantly, flames shot into the sky.
——
"No, Brother Lu, why are you looking at me like that?"
On the other side, on the way to Mufeng City, Kong Hao noticed that Lu Tao kept looking at him with a strange expression, which made him feel a little awkward.
"What expression should I have?" Lu Tao asked curiously.
Kong Hao thought for a moment and said, "It seems like he's looking forward to me being embarrassed, and there's a hint of schadenfreude in his expression."
"Really? It's that obvious?"
Lu Tao chuckled.
Lu Tao suddenly felt a bit amused.
He was thinking that in the near future, those who gave up on letting their children join the Immortal Sect because of Kong Hao's words would find that the Immortal Sect had developed into a behemoth in a short period of time.
Will those innate warriors curse Kong Hao every day, or even put voodoo dolls on him?
It's funny to think about.
Lu Tao's smile faded, and he suddenly said, "Brother, Mufeng City has suffered such a great calamity, there must be many orphans in the city. If possible, I hope to take them into the Immortal Sect. Could you please speak to City Lord Shen for me?"
Now, we have the materials and resources to build the Immortal Sect.
Lu Tao plans to develop the Immortal Sect in a grand and ambitious manner.
The first step is to recruit enough disciples for the sect.
Currently, the Immortal Sect has only a dozen or so disciples. Even with the addition of those sent by General Wei and others, the total number is less than a hundred, which is far from enough.
He needs more sect disciples to help him gain experience.
Especially the experience of practicing techniques.
Kong Hao was taken aback and sighed, "Brother, it turns out you didn't listen to a word I said just now."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Lu Tao laughed and said, "Even if I really can't teach them, at least I'll provide enough resources and help them improve their cultivation."
Hearing Lu Tao say this, Kong Hao felt that he was truly confident.
Kong Hao couldn't help but ask with some curiosity, "Lu Tao, tell me something, you've taught sect disciples before, right? How was it?"
Lu Tao pondered for a moment.
Since Kong Hao is going to protect him and will be going to Yongkang Prefecture with the Immortal Sect, Kong Hao will definitely see the specific situation of the Immortal Sect.
For example, the cultivation level and aptitude of disciples of the Immortal Sect...
so.
Lu Tao thought for a moment and said directly, "I taught a child a while ago. He's over nine years old and has already reached the Refining Organs Realm."
"Cough cough..."
Kong Hao coughed violently; the saliva of someone at the Divine Platform Realm was simply terrifying.
Kong Hao exclaimed in surprise, "A nine-year-old at the Refining Organs Realm? You taught him?"
“Yes, but his aptitude is alright, only the lowest grade.” Lu Tao’s expression was full of self-satisfaction.
Kong Hao said speechlessly, "Is it possible that he cultivated on his own, and it has nothing to do with whether you taught him or not?"
Lu Tao laughed and said, "I'm the one who improved his qualifications."
Lu Tao was also helpless. Kong Hao was at the late stage of the Divine Platform realm, and he could tell the aptitude of the Immortal Sect members at a glance.
He knew he couldn't satisfy everyone, so he simply brought it up himself.
The main reason was that the riot launched by the ancient barbarian kingdom was too sudden. Otherwise, if he had just been given a year to cultivate, he would have been confident that he could raise his cultivation to the Divine Platform level, or even the Martial King level.
At that time, it won't matter if the Immortal Sect is exposed.
Of course, it doesn't seem to matter if it's exposed now.
"Did you also help him improve his qualifications?"
Kong Hao was taken aback and asked, "You have Mortal Transformation Grass? Mortal Transformation Pill?"
"No, it's a Dust-Clearing Pill, made from Dust-Clearing Grass." Lu Tao shook his head.
Kong Hao remained stunned. "Impossible. A Cleansing Pill can raise one's aptitude to the highest grade? What kind of Cleansing Pill do you have?"
Lu Tao said, "A sixth-grade dust-removing pill."
"You didn't get some top-grade dust-removing herb, did you?"
Lu Tao nodded in agreement.
"So you also used the Cleansing Pill to cultivate your Marrow Refining Realm?"
Lu Tao nodded again.
As expected, his cultivation level could not be hidden from these powerful experts at the Divine Platform.
"What a waste! What a waste! That's top-grade dust-removing grass! My God, how many geniuses could it have created?" Kong Hao wailed, completely losing his composure as the head of a prefecture.
Lu Tao silently looked at Kong Hao and said, "If I hadn't advanced from the Marrow Refining stage to the Innate stage, I'm afraid we wouldn't have won this battle."
"That makes sense, it's a good use of technology, it's necessary to use it, and not a drop is wasted!"
Kong Hao's attitude instantly changed completely, and he fully agreed with Lu Tao's approach of using the Dust-Clearing Pill to improve his cultivation.
But he quickly asked again, "Do you still have any Dust Grass? Did you use the Grass Roots too?"
"No more, we've used them all up."
Lu Tao shook his head, puzzled, and asked, "Why can the roots of the Dust-Removing Grass only be cultivated twice? Why can't it be cultivated a third time?"
Upon hearing Lu Tao's question, Kong Hao knew that there really weren't any left.
Kong Hao shook his head in disappointment before replying, "I don't know. All the spiritual herbs, precious medicines, and divine medicines in this world are like this. They can be cultivated a maximum of two more times, which, combined with the original body, makes it three times. It's probably a rule of the world."
Three strikes and you're out?
But shouldn't it be used here too?
Lu Tao couldn't understand it; his understanding of this world was barely scratching the surface.
After the explanation, Kong Hao asked again, "Where did you get that Dust-Removing Grass? Top-grade Dust-Removing Grass hasn't appeared for many years. Even the Divine Platform would fight tooth and nail for it."
"It came from the Axe Gang in our Dafeng Town. However, I didn't know that the Dust-Clearing Grass was so precious at the time, so I didn't ask and just wiped out the Axe Gang."
Speaking of this, Lu Tao was genuinely a bit confused.
Lu Tao was quite surprised that the Axe Gang could obtain the Dust-Removing Grass, even though it was only of low grade.
Ignoring Kong Hao's regretful expression, Lu Tao asked, "Are low-grade dust-removing herbs common? Do you have any, brother?"
"Dust-removing grass isn't like cabbage, how could it be common? I don't have any right now."
Kong Hao said, "A while ago, a low-grade Dust-Removing Grass appeared in Yongkang Prefecture, but I don't know who got it."
Kong Hao didn't think much of it. Since Lu Tao obtained a top-grade dust-removing grass, it must have nothing to do with that low-grade one.
Not now?
That's something that existed before.
Lu Tao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Where can I get the Dust-Removing Grass?"
"There is a secret realm within our Yongkang Prefecture that contains the Dust-Removing Grass, but it is very rare. Usually, you can only get three or five plants once the secret realm is opened, and they are all of low quality."
Kong Hao explained, "That secret realm is called the Divine Platform Secret Realm. It opens once every ten years, and the spots to enter the secret realm are extremely precious. Only some major powers have them. My Yongkang Prefecture only has ten spots."
The secret realm of Shentai?
The name is a bit strange; it seems to be related to the Divine Platform realm.
Lu Tao asked, "When will the Divine Platform Secret Realm open again? Could you give me a few spots, brother?"
