Chapter 429: Countermeasures, Fire Support
It's not that Sect Master Zheng doesn't love Jiushan Sect, it's just that Hao Rishan gave too much! Zheng Fa roughly calculated that if he took some magic tools and elixirs from Jiushan Sect and gave them to Hao Rishan, the profit he got was nearly 300%.
It’s even because Haori Mountain controls many spiritual materials that are not available in the territory of Baixian League.
For Jiushan Sect, it is not just a matter of profit...
Although Hao Rishan is not a human being, he does everything humanly possible!
"Isn't this reward a bit high?"
Hearing Zheng Fa's doubts, the Ninth Elder smiled:
"Zheng Fa of the Jiushan Sect is extremely powerful. If there is no great reward, who would be willing to risk their lives for him?"
"Also, although we think it's too much, it's probably not much more than that for Haori Mountain."
At this point, she sighed and said, "Even though Hao Ri Mountain and Jiu Shan Sect are determined to be enemies, I am afraid there is no turning back for my Chong Xuan Sect."
That... is true.
Hao Rishan is now using all means except Daoguo's.
He also knew the reason very well.
First of all, they really coveted the Fuso tree.
Secondly, from the bottom of their hearts, the five sects are unwilling to have another competitor.
Therefore, even if Hao Ri Mountain openly opposes Jiu Shan Sect, as long as it does not violate that extremely rough agreement, I am afraid that the other four sects will be happy to see it happen.
The axioms of the Xuanwei Realm... have always been based on cultivation.
Zheng Fa was thinking about a countermeasure in his heart. He thought about the matter of the trapped immortal sword again and asked, "Master, what did the stone monk say..."
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the Ninth Elder suddenly looked at Zheng Fa deeply, his eyes as cold as lightning, as if he wanted to see through him.
Zheng Fa was not afraid, but asked in confusion: "Master?"
"Ishigami...didn't agree."
This is not good.
The trade routes were minor matters; the trapped Immortal Sword was the big problem.
"Why?"
"The immortal sword on the top of the mountain is of great importance." The Ninth Elder was silent for a moment, "Last time you practiced the Feiyun Sword, it caused the immortal sword to move abnormally, and almost caused a big accident."
"Although I don't understand why this happened, Ishigami doesn't want any more accidents to happen."
"It's even more impossible to make an exception for you."
Zheng Fa felt it was troublesome when he heard it.
He also didn't expect that Shi Nandang would be so careful... But think about it, if something went wrong with the Xianjian Sword, even Shi Nandang, who had mastered the True Transformation of the God, might not be able to handle it.
On the other hand, using seven incarnations of the gods to control a treasure like the Xianjian Sword...
Everyone would be cautious.
And he is just a golden elixir.
Why take this risk? The Ninth Elder looked at Zheng Fa who was frowning, and suddenly smiled and said:
"The Master has made his decision, and I cannot change it. Just practice hard, and I will find a chance to explain it to you later."
Zheng Fayi bowed and walked out of the Ninth Elder's cave.
The Ninth Elder looked at his back with a deep gaze. This disciple...
She recalled what the Eighth Elder had said in front of her: "There is definitely something strange about the Feiyun Sword that Li Hao practices! This boy was just an average person in the sect before, but now he has made great progress. Isn't this suspicious? I'm afraid the Master is suspicious now!"
"Bixia, you should think carefully about how to avoid being implicated by your good disciple!"
As she thought about it, her brows furrowed.
There was nothing wrong with this disciple's spirit, soul and spiritual power.
It’s just that their temperaments are indeed somewhat different.
But this qualification...
…
This cheap master began to doubt himself.
Zheng Fa's spiritual awareness was somewhat better than that of the Ninth Elder. When he walked out, he saw the other party's eyes clearly.
The reason why she didn't make trouble now was probably because she was uncertain, and the genius she showed made her hesitate.
He was not afraid of Chongxuan Sect, but the Xianjian Sword was still on the top of Shenhuoshan Mountain...
Thinking of a solution in his mind, Zheng Fa walked towards his own cave.
"Fourth Brother!"
A delicate cry came from his right hand. Zheng Fa turned around and saw his "little junior sister" standing three feet away, smiling at him.
The look was extremely intimate.
"Junior Sister Ye?"
"Fourth Senior Brother, have you seen the reward offered at Hao Ri Mountain?"
After hearing this, Zheng Fa began to understand the purpose of his junior sister's visit.
"Junior Sister Ye, are you interested?"
Junior Sister Ye glanced around and looked towards the entrance of Zheng Fa's cave.
"It is my fault, Senior Brother. Please come in and have a seat, Junior Sister."
Zheng Fa understood and led this junior sister named Ye into the cave, then asked her what she thought.
"Fourth Senior Brother, you can see that there is almost no place for us to stand on this mountain now." Junior Sister Ye said, "Those disciples of the Elders who have reached the God Transformation stage are becoming more and more bullying."
Zheng Fa nodded in agreement. These days, he was in charge of purchasing. It seemed that he had a lot of money, but he didn't make much money...
Because the appetite of the Jindan disciple in Tongshi Cave is getting bigger and bigger.
Just earn some hard-earned money now.
This is of course nothing to him; what matters to him is the freedom of purchasing goods.
But for other disciples of Chongxuan Sect, life was difficult.
When Sister Ye saw him nod, she seemed to be encouraged and said through gritted teeth:
"We are the true disciples of Chongxuan, but we can only watch them act so recklessly."
"That's fine, but I don't know what the future of my Chongxuan Sect will be like. If I don't improve my cultivation, I will just die in the future."
Seeing the fear on her face, Zheng Fa knew that the disciples of Chongxuan were probably aware of the danger of the situation - for them, if they didn't fight hard today, they might lose their lives one day.
"So you want to plunder the Jiushan Sect and take more resources?"
Junior Sister Ye nodded at him and said:
"Not only us, but also the disciples of the Spiritualization Elders are tempted to go down the mountain."
"There are even many independent cultivators coming to our Chongxuan Sect, including Nascent Soul cultivators!"
After hearing this, Zheng Fa frowned slightly: "A Nascent Soul cultivator is also going to get involved in this mess?"
"I heard that Hao Ri Mountain was too domineering. Their sect was gone and they could hardly survive there."
“…”
He really didn't expect that Hao Rishan actually had the intention of diverting the trouble to others.
The information from Junior Sister Ye made Zheng Fa even more alert.
He thought for a while, looked at the other party, and asked again: "Then Junior Sister, you are looking for me..."
"Fourth Senior Brother, if you are interested in this reward, I am willing to serve you."
Zheng Fa was startled, and saw Junior Sister Ye looking at him expectantly.
He immediately understood what this cheap junior sister was thinking... These days, Zheng Fa was often called by the Ninth Elder.
I was afraid that this junior sister would see it.
Now he is here to curry favor with someone? He was a little hesitant. After all, he had another identity, and it was inconvenient to have someone following him around.
However, thinking of the information that his junior sister had just given him, he had some new thoughts:
"Junior sister, you are very thoughtful. Are you popular in the sect?"
"I know everyone in Chongxuan Sect well." Junior Sister Ye's face was full of pride, and she seemed quite pleased with herself. She added, "Fourth Senior Brother, I'll tell you a secret... The Eighth Elder wants to become the disciple of the Third Elder..."
Zheng Fa took a long time to figure out what was going on...
This former Grand Elder of the Chongxuan Sect has not only lost his rank, but is also preparing to be demoted.
"And now, if we, the original Chongxuan disciples, don't work together, how can we survive in the future?"
After hearing this, Zheng Fa changed his mind again.
"In that case, I will definitely inform Junior Sister when I go to rob the Nine Mountain Sect."
Junior Sister Ye was overjoyed when she heard this. She spoke to Zheng Fa for a few more words and built a relationship with him before saying goodbye.
After a few days, Zheng Fa found an opportunity to return to the Jiushan Realm.
"You mean... you, the head of Jiushan Sect, are planning to rob Jiushan Sect?"
In the Heavenly Palace, listening to Zheng Fa's plan, Han Lao and others in the palace all looked confused.
What kind of brain can do such an operation? Senior Sister Zhang looked at the reward that Zheng Fa copied, calculated secretly in her heart, and nodded slowly: "From the perspective of profit, the profit of giving these things to Haori Mountain is about twice as high as selling them to the Baixian League Sect. This is feasible."
Zheng Fa smiled and said, "This way, I can also dispel the suspicion of those Yuanyings from Chongxuan Sect."
Mr. Han and others were stunned when they heard this, and then they immediately realized.
Zheng Fa has been working so hard for Hao Ri Mountain, and Shi Nan Dang still has doubts, wouldn't that chill the hearts of everyone in Chong Xuan Sect? Seeing that they all understood what he meant, Zheng Fa changed the subject and said, "It's the other Chong Xuan Sect disciples and outsiders who need to be guarded against."
Seeing his serious expression, the others all nodded.
"I have three ideas..."
"First, through the Tongjian, we will establish an early warning mechanism, and issue different levels of warnings when facing different enemies. I, Senior Sister Zhang, Fairy Xie, as well as Patriarch Xuehe and Jiao Wuji will take turns to provide support."
Senior Sister Zhang and the other three stood up and bowed to Zheng Fa in response.
"Second, Han Qi and the others need an operations manual."
"There are two key points: First, we are not allowed to split up our forces and must always be prepared to support each other. Second, in times of crisis, we must sacrifice our wealth to save our lives."
The caravan led by Han Qi now has more than 30 Shenxiao warships, and they can still deal with the Jindan level threats.
If we really can't win, we can still hold out until Zheng Fa and others come to support us.
After saying the two most direct ways to deal with it, Zheng Fa looked at Mr. Han and suddenly asked, "Mr. Han, I have something to ask of you."
"I?"
"Mr. Han, I want to integrate the resources of the Wushuang Alliance and train a group of disciples from the Jiushan Sect to gather intelligence. In other words, I want to establish a department directly under me - the Intelligence Department."
“…”
A look of realization flashed across Old Han's face.
Everyone also understood that Zheng Fa was impressed by Han Lao's spiritual ear technique, and valued his ability and experience in gathering intelligence even more.
Old Han glanced at Yan Wushuang, was silent for a moment, and then said:
"What can I do?"
"Our current goal is to keep an eye on the Yuanying cultivators coming over from Haori Mountain. They have no ties and can be described as desperate criminals. In fact, they pose the greatest threat to our Jiushan Sect disciples."
No matter how powerful the Shenxiao battleship is, it is still dangerous for Han Qi and his companions if they encounter a Nascent Soul cultivator. The best way is to keep an eye on them.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"The long-term goal is to establish an intelligence network within Haori Mountain..."
Zheng Fa's expression was a little cold.
Hao Ri Mountain has done so many things that the Jiushan Sect has kept them all in mind.
"Internally, you should find some promising talents. In the future, they will practice the "Transformation of the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Evils"..."
As soon as this was said.
Mr. Han's face changed drastically and his scalp felt a little numb.
Just look at Zheng Fa to see how useful "The Changes of Tian Gang and Di Sha" are for espionage.
The problem now is that the Jiushan Sect does not have so many Nascent Soul cultivators who can practice "Tian Gang Di Sha Transformations".
But according to the "First Fifty-Year Plan", the idea of 500 Yuanying in fifty years...
This is only fifty years. If everything goes well, what about a hundred years? Five hundred years?
In the future, Haori Mountain will probably be called a branch of Jiushan Sect.
After speaking of the three ideas, Zheng Fa looked at Senior Sister Zhang and the others and asked:
"Do you have anything else to add?"
Senior Sister Zhang thought for a while and said, "This is only a temporary solution, not a fundamental solution. I think what Madam Xuanhua said before, combining the idea of the Immortal Formation and the Divine Sky Battleship, is feasible."
Hearing this, Zheng Fa couldn't help but shook his head and said softly: "This thing may have something to do with the formation... After all, the method of the immortal formation is somewhat different from the traditional formation."
"I'm afraid that our accumulation in the art of formations will not be enough to perfect this idea in a short period of time."
Having said that, Zheng Fa couldn't help but glance at Xie Qingxue.
In his opinion, since they have all four swords of Zhu Xian, the Tianhe Sect should be good at formations in addition to swordsmanship.
But the Tianhe Sect doesn't seem to have any powerful formation inheritance, or in other words... like the "Nine-Turn Golden Elixir Method", it seems to be a taboo.
At least Xie Qingxue doesn’t know.
This matter made him feel quite regretful. He thought for a while and said to Han Lao: "I can also get some information from Chongxuan Sect... At least I can keep an eye on those few gods on the top of the mountain..."
To be honest, Zheng Fa was looking forward to the deity on the Shenhuo Mountain coming down the mountain - if he could catch one, he would be able to figure out what was going on with the Xianjian Sword.
…
The Zhongxuan Sect's Shenhua naturally did not move, but many of those Shenhua disciples went down the mountain.
"Fourth Senior Brother, many of our brothers and junior fellow disciples have left..." Junior Sister Ye has been coming to Zheng Fa's cave residence every day recently. She looks quite anxious and says, "Once they eat the meat, we won't even be able to drink the soup..."
Zheng Fa looked at this junior sister and asked, "Why, you can't wait?"
"Brother, if the Jiushan Sect is prepared..."
Zheng Fa's face darkened, and he looked at her indifferently: "You said before that you would follow my lead, but now you are urging me?"
As he spoke, a flash of authority appeared on him.
Junior Sister Ye’s face turned pale. She looked at Zheng Fa with horror and stammered, “Senior… Senior Brother…”
"If you don't want to listen to me..."
"Listen! Listen!" The fear on Sister Ye's face disappeared. She looked at Zheng Fa with a bit more enthusiasm and said hurriedly, "I will listen to you, Brother!"
Zheng Fa nodded slowly and asked, "Tell me, who among you has gone down the mountain? Where did you go?"
Junior Sister Ye had a puzzled expression on her face, but she didn't dare to ask too much. She just told some of the information she knew.
After she left, Zheng Fa's consciousness sank into the Jade Book of Creation and sent a message to Senior Sister Zhang and the others: "Senior Sister, these people went down to the Divine Fire Mountain three days ago..."
…
In a market of the Hundred Immortals Alliance, five Jindan disciples of the Chongxuan Sect looked into the market and secretly said, "Brother, when will the people from the Jiushan Sect arrive?"
"Tomorrow!"
"What is their cultivation level?"
The leading Jindan smiled and said:
"At most, it's just building a foundation..."
Hearing this, the other four felt relieved.
Someone calculated:
"Not counting those guys, for a foundation-building disciple of Jiushan Sect... Haori Mountain has offered a reward of nearly two hundred spirit stones..."
The leading disciple sneered, "How can we not count those goods? You have no idea how rich the Jiushan Sect is! If they come to this market every time and bring elixirs, magic tools and magic talismans to Haori Mountain, we will become rich!"
"As long as we do this two or three times, we can gather all the Nascent Soul resources!"
Hearing this, everyone else's breathing became heavier.
The five people waited for a day.
“Here it comes!”
Sure enough, a strange-looking flying boat slowly approached from the distant sky.
When they arrived at the entrance of the market town, two foundation-building disciples came down from above, leading a dozen Qi-training disciples and preparing to go into the market town. The corners of their clothes were embroidered with patterns of the Jiushan Sect, and they all had storage bags hanging around their waists.
“Take action!”
The five of them couldn't hold back any longer and used their magic weapons to attack the group of Jiushan Sect disciples.
The cultivators in the market town were in chaos. According to their thinking, among these disciples of Jiushan Sect, the ones with the highest cultivation level were only two foundation-building cultivators. If the five of them attacked together, it would be easy for them to capture them.
But unexpectedly, three figures suddenly appeared on the strange flying boat, making magic gestures in their hands.
A ball of blue-purple light flew out from the bow of the Shenxiao battleship, casting a stream of light in the air, covering the group of Jiushan disciples and moving them onto the ship.
"External Pill!"
A cry of surprise was heard in the market town.
The expressions of the five Jindan cultivators of Chongxuan Sect also became tense.
Before, no one in the territory of the Hundred Immortals Alliance dared to openly attack the Jiushan Sect’s merchant caravan, and the power of the Shenxiao battleship had never been revealed.
It was only then that everyone understood that this strange flying boat actually had the ability to produce external elixirs!
Looking at the three foundation-building disciples at the bow, the cultivators in the market town were a little bewildered - they are all foundation-building, so why don’t I have this treasure when I go out?
"An external pill! Nothing to be afraid of!"
The leader of the Chongxuan Sect, Jindan, not only did not retreat, but also gritted his teeth and shouted.
Although the expressions of the other four people were also quite serious, there was not much fear in their eyes.
External elixirs are not as good as genuine elixirs.
They still have five golden elixirs, and they can defeat the enemy with greater numbers.
"I've heard that the external pills of the Jiushan Sect are valuable, and there's also a reward on Haori Mountain..." He whispered again, "It looks like we're going to make a fortune today!"
Hearing this, the eyes of the other four Jindan also lit up.
Then their faces lit up.
Thirty Shenxiao warships slowly rose from the horizon, and the purple-blue light on them illuminated their confused faces.
Half the sky was bright.
The shadows of thirty huge warships loomed over the market town.
The market town that was bustling just now is now too quiet.
For the first time, the Shenxiao battleship carefully built by Zheng Fa showed its ferocious appearance towards the Xuanwei cultivator.
Wai Dan is already precious. More than thirty Shenxiao warships are equivalent to more than thirty Wai Dan...
The cultivators in the market town did not understand the productivity of the Nine Mountains Realm, and they did not know that in the Nine Mountains Realm, Shenxiao warships were being built like dumplings.
When they looked at these warships, they felt that it was too extravagant for Jiushan Sect to rely on them to transport goods.
A disciple of the Chongxuan Sect swallowed his saliva and said dryly: "Isn't this fortune... a little too big..."
The leader Jindan looked at the light above his head, his face was also broken.
Who is building a foundation and going out with more than 30 of these things?
…
“Senior Brother!”
Junior Sister Ye ran to Zheng Fa's cave in a panic, and shouted in panic, "Senior Brother, those senior brothers and junior brothers haven't come back yet!"
"There are more than a dozen Jindan disciples, and not a single one has returned!"
"The merchant ships of the Jiushan Sect are all equipped with external alchemy instruments!"
At this point, she couldn't help but look at Zheng Fa and said admiringly: "Could it be that Senior Brother had already expected this?"
I expected it.
But to be honest, without your intelligence, it wouldn’t be so perfect!
"Now, none of our Jindan brothers dare to go down the mountain..."
Sister Ye continued, looking at Zheng Fa with an extremely hesitant expression: "Then let's..."
"Follow me down the mountain."
