Chapter 137 Huangshan Daojun
A sailboat almost as big as an iceberg and made entirely of gold?
Anyone can tell what a huge fortune this is!
Normally, one cubic meter of gold weighs about 19,000 kilograms.
The Earth contains about 400 trillion tons of gold. Sounds like a lot, right?
However, the amount of gold mined by humans from ancient times to the present is only about 191,000 tons!
Even though the United States is the world's number one economic power, its gold reserves are only 8,133 tons.
What about the golden sailboat wrapped in the iceberg in front of us?
Leonard and Howard couldn't analyze exactly how many cubic meters it was.
But they can see from the surveillance video that it covers an area of at least several thousand square kilometers.
If it is really made of pure gold, it is probably many times more than the gold reserves of all countries in the world combined!
Howard was stunned. After a long while, he couldn't help swallowing and stammering, "Leonard, I... We are going to be rich!"
Leonard didn't respond at all. His eyes were fixed on the huge golden ship captured in the surveillance video. His whole face turned red with excitement, and he was gasping for breath!
…
The news that an ancient sailing ship covering tens of thousands of square kilometers and made entirely of gold had been discovered in the Arctic spread like wildfire to the ears of the upper classes in various countries around the world.
Ugly country.
"What? A sailing ship covering tens of thousands of square kilometers and made entirely of gold? Are you sure you're not taking the wrong medicine?"
"Really! This is a photo taken from the satellite station!"
"Let me see...oh my god!"
"Do you believe it now?"
“…”
"What should we do?"
"Immediately block all news and do not let people from any other country know!"
Goose country.
"I'm boiling!"
"This... is such a huge golden sailboat?"
"If it can be developed, how much wealth will it bring?"
"Block the news immediately! Send people to guard the place immediately!"
It wasn't just Ugly Country and Goose Country that noticed.
Canada, Denmark, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland and other countries that also have territories in the Arctic Circle have taken notice.
shock.
Everyone was shocked.
No one expected that a huge ancient sailing ship made entirely of gold would suddenly appear in the Arctic.
Everyone knows what it means if a country can control this huge golden sailing ship!
It means endless wealth!
This means that you can use massive amounts of gold to wage financial wars and bring down the economy of hostile countries in one fell swoop!
Of course, these are positive.
What about the negatives?
An excess of gold may become just a "commodity" like silver, no longer having the function of preserving value, and will cause global financial chaos.
Naturally, whether for positive reasons or considering the negative impact, these countries within the Arctic Circle want to incorporate this huge golden sailboat into their own country.
For a time, the trend was surging.
Several countries have sent a large number of personnel to the Arctic to garrison and even prepare to mine this golden sailing ship.
…
Capital city.
Ever since Fang Yi showed his extremely "crazy" attributes more than half a month ago, many people have lost interest in him.
Not only did everyone lose interest in Fang Yi, they also wanted to stay as far away from him as possible.
The main reason is that this "madman" possesses terrifying power.
For example, when Fang Yi destroyed a pirate town, everyone analyzed that the destructive power this person possessed was about one-third of the destructive power of the Hiroshima atomic bomb explosion.
If this was the power of a bomb explosion, people wouldn't find it scary, but this was done by one person.
That is, this power can be unleashed wherever this person goes.
It can be said to be extremely dangerous.
Logically speaking, even if that "madman" possesses such powerful strength, he is still no match for modern thermal weapons. We should be able to find a way to deal with him, such as capturing him and studying why he is so powerful, or whether we can capture him, slice him and clone him into such a powerful warrior.
But why does no one have this idea and even feel afraid of this madman?
Because this madman is so fast, he can reach a speed of Mach 6 when flying. If anyone really dares to catch that madman, he will probably die without knowing how.
There's no way to show goodwill, and I can't defeat this lunatic.
Naturally, the bigwigs in the country no longer had any ideas about this madman.
Now everyone has a very consistent attitude. You don't like us to show goodwill, so we won't show goodwill. We will pretend that you don't exist and do whatever you like as long as it doesn't cause harm to the country.
Of course, since you don't accept our goodwill anyway, don't even think about getting any benefits from us.
This is what almost everyone thinks.
At the same time, it is also reflected.
For example, at this moment, the Lu family.
Lu Tingsong was talking on the phone with someone. He frowned and said, "I mean to give the Taoist the title of Huangshan Daojun, not to give him the entire Huangshan as a Taoist temple."
The voice on the other end of the phone said calmly, "Lotus Peak is your exchange of interests. We have nothing to say. Even if you call him Lotus Taoist in front of the whole world, it's fine. But Huangshan hasn't had a Taoist temple for a long time. It's not suitable to be named after someone."
Lu Tingsong tried to negotiate with the other party, "It's just a title, isn't this also possible?"
"Old Lu, please don't embarrass me." The man sighed, "Your Lu family has taken advantage, but others haven't. In this case, do you think everyone will give up their own interests?"
Lu Tingsong remained silent.
"I won't talk to you now. I have something to do here. Let's talk about it tomorrow when I go to work." The man said and was about to hang up the phone.
Lu Tingsong asked curiously, "Are you busy? Did something big happen?"
The man laughed and said, "If nothing big happens, I can't be busy?"
He paused for a moment, then continued, "We received a tip that a huge sailing ship made entirely of gold seemed to have been discovered in the Arctic. I heard that several countries with territories within the Arctic Circle have taken action, but the Arctic Circle is the Arctic Circle, and the Arctic is the Arctic. That part is the high seas and does not belong to any country, so I was wondering if we should send someone over to take a look."
A sailboat made entirely of gold?
Even 100,000 kilograms of gold is only worth 5.3 billion US dollars. Is it worth so much attention?
Lu Tingsong was still puzzled.
But he was preoccupied with something and did not ask what the situation was.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Tingsong couldn't help but sigh.
Lu Laosan happened to walk in from outside, "Brother, why are you sighing?"
Lu Tingsong told the story again.
Finally, he sighed again and said, "Originally, with his cultivation level, there is nothing wrong with being crowned as the Taoist Master of Huangshan, but he ignores others, and they are not willing to agree at all."
After listening to this, Lu Lao San also smiled bitterly and said, "We can't do anything if others don't see the rabbit and don't release the eagle. Who made the real person not happy to have a good relationship with that group of people? Otherwise, let alone the title of Huangshan Daojun, as long as the real person wants, even Himalaya Daojun is no problem."
yes.
The real person is too stubborn.
There's nothing wrong with meeting other people.
Now there are no benefits to be gained.
Lu Tingsong and Lu Laosan couldn't help but feel sorry for Master Fang.
…
At this time, Fang Yi had no idea what was happening in the outside world.
He has reached a critical moment in his practice.
Fang Yi felt that he was about to enter the second level of the fourth transformation.
Keep practicing hard.
Suddenly, he felt a stream of heat flowing into his dantian!
Fang Yi practiced his Qi while looking inward at his physical condition.
He saw the golden elixir's golden energy mixed with the red elixir energy rushing to the dantian, constantly nourishing his soul.
The soul was therefore covered with a faint golden light.
"The second level of the fourth transformation requires the fusion of the earth soul and the human soul. My soul is too weak now, and I cannot combine the two souls into one. I need to use Dan Qi to nourish my soul. Although the red Dan Qi is powerful, its effect in nourishing the soul is very ordinary. I just don't know how effective the newly generated golden Dan Qi is in nourishing the soul."
Fang Yi observed carefully.
As a result, he was surprised to find that the effect of the newly born golden Dan Qi in nourishing the soul was so good that in just over an hour, it was comparable to the effect of the red Dan Qi nourishing the soul for a whole day.
"According to the technique, it takes about three years for the earth soul and human soul to merge, but it shouldn't take that long for me."
Fang Yi had some idea in his mind.
When entering the first level of the fourth transformation normally, the golden elixir will only be filled with golden light, and nourishing the soul still mainly depends on the red elixir energy, so the speed is very slow.
However, his half-month retreat was equivalent to two to three years of normal practice. His golden elixir had already turned one-third golden, and the nourishing effect far exceeded the first level of normal practice.
Well, even according to the current progress of cultivation, I might be able to complete the second level in just one year.
This is still based on the current situation. It is impossible for me not to practice.
Fang Yi felt that there was hope of fusing the earth soul and the human soul within half a year.
It mainly depends on the progress of cultivation.
"I don't know if it's because I've entered a higher level. I've consumed more energy from the golden apple during my practice. I originally thought I could stay in seclusion for another half a month, but now it seems like I'll have to come out in six or seven days at most."
Fang Yi estimated that the next time he ate the golden apple and practiced in seclusion, it would only last for twenty days at most.
Never mind, just continue practicing.
Fang Yi put away the distracting thoughts in his mind and just wanted to take advantage of this retreat to completely stabilize the second level.
However, at this moment, he suddenly "saw" a large group of people holding various ice-breaking tools walking towards the location of the treasure ship.
