Golden Lizard Grass that is over a hundred years old is an auxiliary medicine for refining the third-level elixir, Golden Yuan Pill. The Righteous Alliance planted a large amount of Golden Lizard Grass, which was sold after twenty years. It collected the fifty-year-old Golden Lizard Grass, planted it when it was eighty years old and sold it, and then asked another affiliated force to hand over the hundred-year-old Golden Lizard Grass. In this way, the Righteous Alliance saved a lot of manpower and material resources, and also earned a lot of spirit stones.
If the subordinate forces were allowed to cultivate the Golden Lizard Grass for a hundred years, I'm afraid that this force would be destroyed before the Golden Lizard Grass reaches a hundred years. In this way, the Righteous Alliance outsources the necessary resources for cultivating immortals layer by layer, and occasionally assigns subordinate forces to do things. It is nice to enjoy the shade under a big tree. Before they grow into big trees, they need to rely on the protection of others.
The outer sea is rich in resources for cultivating immortals, with numerous monsters and quite a few third-level islands. Some high-level cultivators occupy some remote islands, and the four major forces turn a blind eye. If these high-level monsters are attacked by monsters, the four major forces will not help unless they are willing to side with a certain force.
On the way here, Han Zhangxiang and Han Changming discussed this issue, but they soon gave up the idea. Finding an island to develop on their own could indeed save a lot of spirit stones, but if they were destroyed one day, there would be no one to provide protection.
Every industry has its own rules. Since so many forces abide by these rules, it would be better for the Han family to abide by them honestly.
"In addition to Ziyue Island, I would like to rent three more islands. Are there any additional conditions?"
Han Changming then asked, considering the safety, renting three more small islands, one as a forward observation post, if there is an enemy attack, it can also be used to warn, and the other is to be used to accommodate mortals.
In the outer sea, mortals can be bought and sold, but they are bought to reproduce. If mortals are used to refine treasures, once discovered, the four major forces will unite to kill them. If the human race wants to grow and develop in the outer sea, it needs a large number of cultivators. A certain base of mortals will give birth to immortal cultivators. In a sense, mortals are a precious resource for immortal cultivation and the foundation for the human race to gain a foothold in the outer sea.
It is said that many high-level monks were born as mortals, and after they grow up, they pay more attention to the life and death of mortals.
"No need. Not long ago, a third-level poisonous dragon led people to attack several islands. Many mortals lost their shelter. If Senior Han is willing to protect them, I can give you 20,000 mortals. Please treat them well."
Shen Rong said enthusiastically that immortal cultivators often hunt monsters, and monsters will also attack immortal cultivators. Every once in a while, a force will be severely damaged by monsters. Immortal cultivators are fine because they can retreat to the market town at any time, but mortals are unlucky because there are so many of them, and without the help of immortal cultivators, mortals simply cannot outrun the monsters.
Poisonous dragons attacked many islands. Although the number of immortal cultivators killed or injured was not high, there were more than 100,000 mortals killed or injured, and hundreds of thousands of mortals were still not resettled.
Han Changming was a little surprised. He thought there would be some additional conditions. After thinking about it carefully, he understood that the human race's power in the open sea was not as strong as that of the demon race. If the conditions were too harsh, other forces would rather find remote islands to settle down and develop. After all, there were countless islands in the open sea.
From the literal meaning, the conditions for renting an island are not harsh. You have to know that the Han family spent hundreds of thousands of spirit stones in order to upgrade their spirit veins, while renting a third-level medium-quality spirit vein with earth fire only costs 200,000 spirit stones, and then regularly handing in the golden lizard grass. However, there are also additional obligations, such as accepting the call of the Righteous Alliance, helping to find various immortal cultivation resources, arresting evil cultivators, etc.
"If you discover metal veins, spirit stone veins or other immortal cultivation resources, they will all belong to you. If you are willing to hand them over to our Righteous Alliance, we will give you generous rewards."
Shen Rong added that in order to expand their power, the four major forces have many preferential policies to attract other forces to join their camps. If the conditions are harsh, not many forces will be willing to join.
"Okay, I'll rent Purple Moon Island. This is 200,000 Spiritual Stones. When will you send the mortal to Purple Moon Island?"
Han Changming took out a green storage bag and threw it to Shen Rong.
"Please wait a moment, Senior. I will inform Elder Chen that there are many things to pay attention to when renting an island. Elder Chen will explain it to you in person."
As Shen Rong spoke, she took out a blue magic disk and entered a spell.
Han Changming nodded and waited quietly. Han Benxian started chatting with Shen Rong. Shen Rong's tone became much more polite, not as cold as before.
Han Benfu saw it but said nothing.
Not long after, an old man in a green robe with a square face and small eyes walked out from the side room. The old man in the green robe had a goatee and his eyes were bright, giving people a sense of efficiency.
"Elder Chen, this Senior Han wants to lease Ziyue Island and three small islands."
Shen Rong pointed at Han Changming and introduced him with a respectful look.
The old man in green robe glanced at Han Changming, nodded, and said calmly: "Friend Han, I am Chen Hong. There is no problem with renting the island, but there are some obligations that need to be undertaken that I must tell you. First, if you are summoned, you must obey orders; second, you must not hide or provide assistance to the evil cultivators wanted by our Righteous Alliance; third, it is strictly forbidden to wantonly kill mortals. If you do not plan to rent our Righteous Alliance's island, you are not allowed to take away all the mortals. Report to us in advance so that we can place the mortals."
These three conditions are not excessive at all.
Han Changming nodded and said, "No problem, Han agrees."
Chen Hong's expression eased, and he took the storage bag from Shen Rong. He scanned it with his spiritual sense, nodded, and ordered: "Shen Rong, you will handle the formalities for Fellow Daoist Han immediately. As for the 20,000 mortals, they will be sent to you in a few days."
Shen Rong immediately processed the formalities for Han Changming and registered him.
"Senior Han, this is the Purple Moon Order, which means you are the owner of Purple Moon Island. In addition to Purple Moon Island, there are three other small islands. This is the situation of the three small islands."
Shen Rong took out a lavender token and a blue jade slip. On the front of the purple token were engraved three large golden characters "Zhengdao League", and below were three small characters "Ziyue Island".
Han Changming immersed his spiritual consciousness into the blue jade slip and nodded with satisfaction. The three islands were not far from Ziyue Island, which was quite what he wanted.
"Friend Han, things have been a bit unsettled recently, so be careful and build a protective formation for the island first. If you find the whereabouts of that poisonous dragon, report to us immediately and we will reward you handsomely."
Chen Hong said in a serious tone that this poisonous dragon had indirectly caused the deaths of ten Jindan cultivators, with a terrible impact.
"must."
Han Changming agreed. In fact, even if he found the poisonous dragon, he and Han Zhangxiang might not be able to defeat it together.
After walking out of Haoran Palace, Han Changming was in a good mood. After renting the island, what they had to do was to go to Ziyue Island.
Han Changming took Han Benfu and Han Benxian to see the clan leader to report the situation of leasing the island.
Not long after, they appeared in a secluded courtyard where Han Zhangxiang and others were.
"Purple Moon Island is not bad. Let's go there without delay and settle down as soon as possible."
Han Zhangxiang said with a smile that they brought a lot of Qi-refining monks on this trip, so it would be better to let them reproduce.
After leaving Haoran City, Han Changming summoned the Flying Spirit Shuttle and carried everyone to the northwest.
Ziyue Island is more than 7 million miles away from Haoran City. The area controlled by the Righteous Alliance is more than 50 million miles. The location of Ziyue Island is not remote. Coincidentally, Ziyue Island is less than 3 million miles away from Jinxia Island.
If a Foundation Establishment cultivator travels at full speed, traveling 50,000 miles a day is no problem, and this is assuming that monsters and magic power are not taken into consideration. If a Jindan cultivator flies alone, traveling a million miles a day is no problem, and this is also assuming that monsters and magic power are not taken into consideration.
Han Changming controls the flying magic tool to fly, but naturally he cannot travel a million miles a day, and he will encounter monsters on the way.
Han Changming and Han Zhangxiang looked nervous and alert. If they encountered a third-level monster and a fight started, they might not be able to take care of their own people.
Fortunately, along the way, they only encountered some low-level monsters and no high-level monsters.
Han Debiao and Han Benfu can deal with those low-level monsters without Han Changming and Han Zhangxiang taking action.
Half a month later, the Feiling Shuttle landed on a deserted island with a radius of more than ten miles.
"Let's take a rest here first. According to our speed, we will be able to reach Ziyue Island in half a month. By then..."
Before Han Changming could finish his words, a loud roar was heard, and a huge ball of fire appeared in the distance. A beam of light flew towards them quickly, and behind it were two red lights.
"There are Jindan cultivators coming, as well as two third-level demon birds."
Han Changming's face was solemn. The Calming Lock had the effect of enhancing spiritual awareness. He had worn it for decades, and his spiritual awareness was much stronger than that of a cultivator in the middle stage of the Jindan stage.
"You all hide well and protect yourselves."
Han Zhangxiang gave an instruction and took out a short red blade.
Not long after, the escaping light faded and Han Changming saw its true appearance.
"Hey, Fellow Daoist Cheng."
Han Changming said in surprise that this person was none other than Cheng Guangbei.
The last time he saw Cheng Guangbei was more than 20 years ago. At that time, Cheng Guangbei had reached the great perfection of foundation building. After not seeing him for many years, Cheng Guangbei had entered the Jindan stage.
Cheng Guangbei is in the early stage of Jindan, and Han Changming is in the middle stage of Jindan.
Cheng Guangbei was also a little surprised when he saw Han Changming. He thought his cultivation speed was fast enough, but Han Changming's cultivation speed was faster than his
Two sharp bird calls were heard behind him. Cheng Guangbei seemed to have noticed something. His face changed and he suddenly changed direction. Two huge fireballs as big as houses passed by and hit the island.
Boom!
After a deafening roar, two huge pits over ten feet in size appeared on the island. Flames were burning in the pits and the rocks showed signs of melting.
The two red lights were actually two red demon birds with wingspan of three meters. The feathers on their wings were like iron sheets, emitting a metallic luster. The beaks of the demon birds were as flat as duck beaks, and they had a pair of crescent-shaped claws. Judging from their aura, they were two third-order low-grade demon birds, equivalent to immortal cultivators in the early stage of Jindan.
Han Changming and Han Zhangxiang looked at each other, nodded to each other, and took action.
