Although he didn't know how Ye Li had snatched the soul seal, he knew that once the people behind him knew that it was Ye Li who had snatched the soul seal, someone would definitely come to snatch it.
The other three masters at the level of Fu Shen are not something he can deal with alone.
The two of them walked side by side and quickly came to the portal, and rushed in without thinking. In a flash, they arrived at the top of the tree mountain.
The surroundings were still the same as when they entered, with not much change.
The two men hurriedly left the tree hill, found their horses, and began to gallop towards Dongfang County.
"Ye Li, when did you go up there? Why didn't I see you coming?!"
Along the way, Huo Xing asked curiously.
Ye Li grinned and said: "I didn't even get close to the main trunk of the tree. I climbed up from other trunks nearby, and then went over the main trunk from the connected branches.
We were in different directions at first and were too far away so I didn't see you.
After I climbed the tree, everyone's attention was not on me, so I took the opportunity to run ahead of everyone and grab the Wood Soul Seal. "
Ye Li did not reveal the details of the fight, after all, these things were not very important.
Hearing Ye Li's words, Huo Xing nodded and said, "Thanks to your speed, you were able to get to the first place even if you climbed up from the side tree. If an ordinary person climbed from the tree next to it, he would definitely fall into the deep hole."
Huo Xing was telling the truth. The other spiritual warriors who made the same choice as Ye Li had not yet come down from the tree. Their speed was far behind the others.
The two men rode their horses and galloped towards Dongfang County. Ye Li felt very happy. This time he got not only the soul seal, but also two life crystals.
With their existence, Ye Li can use the Zhoushi Gourd for two months, which means he has two more years of practice time.
Two years of practice was enough time for him to improve his strength again and reach a higher level.
Huo Xing did not ask Ye Li about the Soul Seal. Before he left Tangjing City, Li Rushan had already told him that he would help Ye Li fight for the Soul Seal in the future.
According to Li Rushan, the soul seal will belong to Ye Li, and neither the Tang court nor the royal family needs it.
It took the two of them almost the same amount of time to get here, and they finally made it back to Dongfang County. At this time, half of the city wall of Dongfang City had been built.
It will take more than a month to complete the city wall.
The reason why the progress was so fast was thanks to the craftsmen sent by Li Rushan, whose skills were of very high standard, as well as the help of a powerful army and the recruitment of a large number of civilian laborers.
With everyone's joint efforts, they managed to build half of the huge city wall in a short period of time.
Looking at the towering outline of the city wall, Ye Li felt a sense of accomplishment.
He first listened to his subordinates' reports on the situation over the past twenty days. The army's training was being carried out according to the plan originally formulated by Ye Li and there was nothing much to say.
The surrounding forces also remained as they were, and no one dared to come to Dongfang County to cause trouble.
More and more people have been attracted to settle down in Dongfang County. After all, after the new city is built, there will be many preferential policies and conveniences for the residents who move in.
The population growth will bring Ye Li a more prosperous Eastern County.
Ding Si said: "Master, in short, after you left, all the development of Dongfang County was carried out according to your instructions before you left, and now we have achieved initial results."
Ye Li nodded and said, "By the way, have you prepared all the casting materials I asked you to exchange for me?"
Hearing Ye Li's question, Ding Si nodded hurriedly and said, "Master, I have prepared all the materials you asked me to prepare. Now they are all in the warehouse. You can check them anytime!"
Hearing Ding Si's words, Ye Li nodded, a smile appeared on his face, and said: "Okay, I trust you to do the work. After I leave, if you do a good job, everyone will be rewarded with one month's salary.
What is the current financial situation like for us?"
Ding Si heard this and said, "Master, our current expenses are very high, but generally speaking, we are not short of money. In addition to the spiritual stones supported by His Majesty, the amount of spiritual stones we have mined in the county is also very huge, enough to maintain our daily expenses.
In addition, the weaponsmiths were also busy. We used a portion of the large amount of spiritual weapons and armor that we had previously forged and sold the rest. In general, our finances have maintained a slowly rising trend over the past month."
After hearing Ding Si's report, Ye Li smiled and said, "That's good, it looks like our development trend is still good.
After this, you have to think of more ways to make money. Our county is generally still in its infancy, and finance is a big problem if we want to have good development.
In addition, our legion is still 2,500 people short of full strength. You need to give me a good idea on how to get these people.
We want elite soldiers. We shouldn't bring in soldiers of lower quality. It's useless to recruit weak soldiers."
Hearing Ye Li's words, everyone nodded respectfully in response.
Afterwards, Ye Li arranged some chores for everyone and let them leave on their own.
He followed Ding Si to the warehouse and checked the materials in the warehouse.
After confirming that these were suitable, Ye Li picked up two piles of materials and left, going to the foundry room.
These materials were collected by Ye Li for his own cavalry regiment. He wanted to build a powerful monster cavalry regiment.
In the past on the Continent of Miracles, he learned how to tame and control monsters, so now he plans to use this method on his own army.
He had 10,000 soldiers under his command, 9,000 of whom he planned to divide into three corps, one of which was a cavalry unit, with a total of 3,000 people, all of whom would ride monsters as mounts.
The second is the artillery team, which will use faster monsters to pull the soul-gathering cannon and conduct mobile operations. It will be the most powerful corps under his command.
The third one is the fastest flying corps. He will teach the method of making mechanical wings to his craftsmen and let these craftsmen cast enough mechanical wings for him.
You must know that on the Nine Souls Continent, spiritual warriors cannot fly. The flying ability granted by the mechanical wings is definitely more useful to the people here than to the spiritual talisman masters on the Black Eye Continent.
After all, a legion with mechanical wings can definitely be tracked by five people. They will have super mobility beyond everyone's imagination.
They can provide rapid support to various battlefields in a short period of time and will definitely be an extraordinary combat force.
