Zhao Zheng talked about his idea for a long time, which shocked Qin Ran so much that his soul trembled. In fact, it can be summed up in one sentence... He wants to change the sect's cultivation of immortals to the dynasty's cultivation of immortals.
He wanted to gather the spiritual energy of the immortal ruins and redistribute it through the imperial court. This was just like a big government integrating domestic resources and distributing them according to a certain rule.
If spiritual energy were a resource, and if the imperial court was strong enough, then it would indeed be possible.
An idealist is worthy of admiration, a capable idealist is terrifying, and a capable idealist also has extremely high motivation, perhaps the whole world will tremble because of him.
It took Qin Ran a long time to come back to his senses. He found that he had actually finished the tea in the cup... He looked up at Zhao Zheng and felt terrified.
"Your Majesty!" He spoke with some respect unconsciously, "Using formations to gather spiritual energy is indeed feasible... Your battle plan is also fine. Before the sects can react, unify the six countries, and then build a formation base on the land of the six countries. Finally, when the formation base is completed, activate the formation and plunder the spiritual energy. You will be in control. Once you have done this, those cultivation sects will naturally be under your control.
"But... why did you tell me? I am just a small Jindan cultivator. I can neither help you nor cause any hindrance."
"No." Zhao Zheng shook his head. "Brother Qin, you are very capable. You are knowledgeable and far-sighted. You can see through my layout and my plan. You are good at alchemy, array formation, and education. Cultivation is common, but knowledge of alchemy and array formation is not common. You are very talented, why not work with me to realize this great dream?"
so……
Qin Ran thought, is this a one-time visit? Or is this a trap?
"What if I don't agree?" he asked.
Zhao Zheng looked across from him, and opposite him, the High Priest Xuan Qin was sitting there.
"I'm not afraid of death." Qin Ran said.
...He is a clone.
The high priest laughed and asked, "Is it because you are a clone?"
Kieran's heart trembled as he looked towards the high priest.
This high priest, a dignified cultivator in the God Transformation Stage, did not speak when Zhao Zheng was talking to him just now, as if he did not exist. Now that he spoke, his tone and demeanor made him feel familiar.
"Feel it and try to see if you can still sense the real body." said the high priest.
Upon hearing this, Qin Ran hurriedly tried to contact the main body... As expected, there was no movement.
"Although your clone is exquisite, it is ultimately a clone based on the primordial spirit." The high priest said, "Although I don't know where you got this method from, I am at the Spiritualization Stage, and I understand the primordial spirit and clones better than you.
"You think you are a clone and are not afraid of death. But I can cut off the connection between you and the original body, and I can also kill the original body through you."
Qin Ran recalled the time when the black-robed monk bowed to him and his clone died on the spot, which almost affected his real body.
He was really a little scared.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his fear, looked at the high priest, then looked at Zhao Zheng, and suddenly realized: "Doppelganger? You are not Zhao Zheng?!"
“No, I’m Zhao Zheng.” Zhao Zheng smiled and explained to Qin Ran, “It took me five hundred years to find this way of cultivating immortals and building a dynasty. Therefore, two hundred years ago, I returned to the Land of Immortals and established Xuan Qin… In the past two hundred years, I have completely comprehended how to build a cultivation dynasty, and then I began to plan with my clone.”
It turns out that Emperor Xuanqin and the High Priest Xuanqin are the same person.
After learning such a shocking secret, Qin Ran finally understood that he had only two choices today: join the gang or die. He knew too much, and Zhao Zheng would never let him live.
At this point, knowing that he was going to die, Qin Ran completely relaxed. He tapped his fingers lightly on the tea table and said, "Before I die, I have three questions."
“Yes!” Zhao Zheng nodded, motioning Qin Ran to continue.
“First…” Qin Ran asked, “Why don’t you start with Xuan Qin? First turn Xuan Qin into a cultivation dynasty. Once you have enough power, you can expand outward step by step.”
Zhao Zheng replied: "With the spiritual energy of Xuanqin alone, if we gather it together, the dynasty we form is not strong enough to fight against a large sect. And this will also expose me too early, so that other large sects in the Immortal Relics Land will join forces to hinder me. However, the Immortal Relics Land is relatively remote and independent. If I find an opportunity to integrate the entire place, I will get a dynasty with peak strength, which will be enough to deal with the powerful enemies outside."
"A dynasty at the pinnacle of strength, is there a realm above the dynasty?"
"Dynasty, Imperial Dynasty, Imperial Dynasty, Immortal Dynasty." Zhao Zhengdao said, "And by the time of the Immortal Dynasty, it was not much different from the Lingnan Immortal Sect."
Qin Ran understood, he nodded, and asked again: "Second, you know that I know a little about formations, so I know that you want to set up such a formation, the manpower and material resources consumed are immeasurable, and it is not something that can be accomplished in a short period of time... During this period of time, aren't you worried about those sects?"
"I have my own arrangements..." Zhao Zheng replied.
Qin Ran looked at him and knew that he didn't want to talk, so he continued: "Third, although I am a clone, I know myself very well. When I can't defend Wuyi City, when I die unexpectedly, when everything is irreversible, I will do something extreme."
As he spoke, he took out a porcelain bottle from his Qiankun bag, placed it on the table, and introduced it to Zhao Zheng.
"This pill is called the Death Pill. If I throw it into the moat of Mo City, when you get up tomorrow morning, you will see corpses all over the city. So, you can win, but your army in Beichu will die; your people in Xuanqin will be poisoned and killed by the Death Pill I secretly left behind. So, how are you going to solve this problem?"
Zhao Zheng's expression changed slightly, and he asked, "How many of these pills do you have?"
"This is what I made. I have as much as you want." Qin Ran said sincerely.
Zhao Zheng was silent for a long time before he said, "You don't want to die, and you don't want to be used by me, so tell me your conditions."
"I am shocked by your plan, and I respect you as a person. I never thought that there would be someone like you in this world where cannibalism is not an adjective." Qin Ran said.
"In fact, I really want to hang out with you, but when I think of the endless challenges that will come after this great cause, I feel tired. I'm just a nerd, and such a groundbreaking event can only be accomplished by someone like you.
"So I don't want to stop your plan. Everyone is equal, everyone can become an immortal, everyone is like a dragon, this is what I want to see. It's no wonder that Yuntianmen supports you, you are really amazing.
"But I can't let you destroy Bei Chu..."
"So, I want to use this Death Pill to negotiate with you, asking you to give up Beichu." He said, "I will let Beichu help you build the formation base you need in Beichu, how about it?"
…Qin Ran’s clone disappeared from his perception. Three days later, his real body in Wuyi City received a message from his clone:
"Xuan Qin is about to withdraw its troops!"
