Wild

Lin Jiang slowly finished his work. After the energy of his soul was exhausted, his mind returned.

"Brother, how is it?"

"I don't know the effect yet, but from what Yang Luo said, I have successfully planted a demon in Yang Luo's heart. If she doesn't catch me, she can't be in harmony with the Tao."

"Then it's considered a success."

"Well, but then Yang Luo will attack from all sides. She knows I'm in the Wild, and she must know you are there too. Does that count as a trick on you?"

"No, your hatred is my hatred. If you dare to come to the Wild, I will kill her."

The little idiot didn't care. In the world of cultivating immortals, he was still a little afraid of Yang Luo, but in the Wild, his territory, he was afraid of nothing.

"Okay, then I'll leave in a few days. You can try to lobby the Demon God Temple."

"Lobbying the Demon God Temple is fine, but I don't think my plan will work. Yang Luo is too evil. Who in the world dares to say that he has won her?"

Xiao Sha Diao said. He already knew Lin Jiang's genius plan. Lin Jiang was going to find a genius cultivator and train him, so that the genius would deal with Yang Luo, the genius would deal with the genius, and magic would be used against magic.

"I don't have the confidence either, but I can't think of any other way. I can only give it a try,"

Lin Jiang said. With his own talent, he really couldn't beat Yang Luo, and Xiao Sha Diao couldn't do it either. Then he could only rely on other peerless geniuses to see if he could find one.

"I think you don't have the confidence, brother."

"Nonsense, if you have the confidence, why are you hiding here? Just kill them all. The only advantage of doing this is that I can stay out of the picture and be a behind-the-scenes figure, and I have time to try and make mistakes,"

Lin Jiang said. As long as he doesn't show up and isn't caught, then he's not afraid. At most, there will be a few more geniuses.

·········

Zhongzhou, where the human race is the most powerful, is also the most densely populated place. There are more than a dozen large cities with more than a million cultivators, and there is no telling how many other small cities there are.

As for the even larger number of mortals, almost no one pays attention to them. After all, for those cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage, mortals are really not worth mentioning. Even if 90% of them die, they can be easily replenished. After all, their lifespan is too long. With a hundred or eighty years, they can recover anyway.

On this day, in a mortal town, thousands of mortal children aged twelve to fifteen were queuing up. At the front of the line, two cultivators in the Qi training stage were testing their spiritual roots, and more than a dozen cultivators were maintaining order.

These cultivators were invited by Lin Jiang. Lin Jiang was used to being a big boss. He was naturally too lazy to take care of things that could be done by others for a little money. He found a restaurant and drank quietly.

"Congratulations, senior. Twelve more children with spiritual roots were detected this morning."

"How are they?"

"Five five spiritual roots, three four spiritual roots, three three spiritual roots, one double spiritual root, and no single spiritual root or special spiritual root has been found yet."

"According to the rules, the double spiritual roots will stay, and the others will be given a sum of money to leave."

Lin Jiang nodded. Since he wanted to find a genius to deal with Yang Luo, the threshold must be high. There is a possibility that masters will appear in three spiritual roots, four spiritual roots, and five spiritual roots, but the probability is too small and the resources consumed are too much. Lin Jiang directly rejected it. Only double spiritual roots can reach the threshold.

In the afternoon, two foundation-building cultivators landed in the town and stopped the spiritual root detection. Because this town, in theory, belongs to a second-rate sect, Lin Jiang hurriedly stepped forward.

At this time, Lin Jiang turned into an old foundation-building cultivator. He first stuffed a handful of spiritual stones into the two people, and then cried about his short life span and the reason why he came to choose one or two successors because there was no one to inherit.

With the spirit stones paving the way, and Lin Jiang looking old and weak, the two did not pursue the matter any further. These mortals, in theory, are one of the resources of the sect, but except for some sects with a relatively short history, very few sects rely on mortals for their disciples. Most of them are provided by disciples within the sect or by vassals, which in fact monopolizes the channels for cultivating immortals.

If people from other sects come to recruit disciples, they will not agree. Who knows if there will be geniuses among the mortals? If they are just casual cultivators, then there is no problem. They believe that casual cultivators cannot stir up any waves.

After watching the two leave, Lin Jiang asked those cultivators to continue. This was not the first time he had seen such a thing. If he encountered someone who refused to accept money and refused to give him a break, Lin Jiang would just leave. Anyway, there were too many mortals in Zhongzhou. If Zhongzhou was not enough, there were Qingzhou, Bingzhou, Liuzhou, etc. With a base of hundreds of millions of mortals, Lin Jiang did not believe that he could not find a few qualified geniuses.

Two days later, Lin Jiang took four children away from the town and rushed to the next place, one area after another. Half a year later, Lin Jiang had more than a hundred children following him.

"Several fellow Taoists, we have been cooperating for more than half a year. You all know how credible I am. If I want to create a sect, I must have a large number of talented disciples.

So we agreed that you will continue to help me recruit disciples. You must be born as mortals or ordinary casual cultivators. You must have two spiritual roots or more. For all disciples with two spiritual roots, I will give you ten spiritual stones, for disciples with heavenly spiritual roots, I will give you one thousand spiritual stones, and for

disciples with different spiritual roots, I will give you one thousand two hundred spiritual stones. How about that?" Lin Jiang said to a dozen Qi training casual cultivators. Finding disciples is a very tedious matter. Among mortals, there are only one in ten thousand with spiritual roots, and among those with spiritual roots, the probability is extremely low that they have two spiritual roots or more.

A group of Qi training casual cultivators immediately agreed. Although this matter is tedious, it is not dangerous. Lin Jiang's reputation has also been established in more than half a year, so they naturally will not refuse.

Lin Jiang sent a group of Qi training casual cultivators away, and then settled in an area of ​​Bingzhou. This time, Lin Jiang was not polite and directly grabbed a piece of land and then settled these children.

Lin Jiang taught them personally. Half of these children were still illiterate, so they had to start from the beginning. But this was also good, as it was easier for Lin Jiang to brainwash them.

Lin Jiang first brainwashed them from the perspective of blind loyalty, using the system of monarch, minister, father and son. The object of loyalty was naturally Lin Jiang himself. It was also a kind of screening. If the disciples were very thoughtful and had strong personalities, they would be screened out and would definitely not be trained by Lin Jiang in the later stage.

After that, those casual cultivators began to send children over continuously. The number of children under Lin Jiang's command increased. Fortunately, the expenses of these children were very small, so Lin Jiang could handle them casually for the time being. Lin Jiang

could not take care of the children sent later, so he could only let the old take care of the new. Anyway, those children aged 14 or 15 were quite old.

"You two hundred people have completed the introductory teaching, learned to read, and have almost mastered the meridians of the human body. Starting tomorrow, I will teach you to practice.

But remember, starting tomorrow, it is not the beginning of your good days, but the beginning of a miserable life. I will use ten years to screen you. Only one of you can become my direct disciple, and the other nine people can continue to stay with me. The remaining 190 people will be dismissed by me after ten years and become independent practitioners."

Lin Jiang said to the two hundred people. This is the first batch. New children will continue to be sent, but Lin Jiang will only keep one person from this batch of two hundred people. The probability of two hundred to one is very harsh.

And even if they win in the end, there will be new competition and they will compete with those behind. Perhaps in one or two hundred years, Lin Jiang will only choose two or three people for real training, so that he can truly select the genius that is one in ten thousand.

The elimination round started on the third day. Lin Jiang eliminated those who failed to draw Qi into their bodies within three days. Perhaps some of these people were late bloomers, or perhaps it was due to some other reasons, but Lin Jiang didn't care. If they failed to draw Qi into their bodies within three days, it meant that their comprehension was not good enough.

In this round, more than half of the two hundred people were gone, and only about eighty people stayed. Of the remaining one hundred or so, Lin Jiang selected a few who looked pleasing to the eye to stay as menial disciples, and sent the rest away, giving them a set of exercises and twenty spirit stones to fend for themselves. Lin

Jiang felt that it was a bit of a waste to send away the disciples who had spent a lot of manpower and material resources to train. These disciples, even if they went to a large sect, were potential stocks worth training. Unfortunately, Lin Jiang had to be ruthless because he didn't have enough resources to train so many people.

The children who were to be sent away all cried loudly. They were really panicked. The youngest was less than fourteen years old, and it would be a life-or-death situation if they went out.

The children who stayed behind also looked at Lin Jiang in fear. Although Lin Jiang was strict with them before, he also had a gentle side. But now, they only had fear of Lin Jiang. They were afraid of being sent away.

With the lesson of this scene, the remaining more than 80 people have become extremely obedient and hardworking. They have completed all the things Lin Jiang ordered, but they are afraid of being eliminated by Lin Jiang.

"Congratulations to you guys for passing my first level, but don't feel relaxed, because your days will become more and more difficult.

From today on, every month, I will check your cultivation. The last one will be eliminated. At the same time, I will arrange a lot of things for you in normal times. If you do these things well, you will not get extra points. If you don't do them well, you will lose points. Once the points are deducted to a certain number, you will be eliminated..."

Lin Jiang continued. Their cultivation is definitely the first, but they must continue to strengthen their obedience, so Lin Jiang will give them very cruel training next, so that they will completely submit to Lin Jiang, to the point where they will not even blink an eye when they commit suicide.
