Other than contribution points, he also hoped to enter No Man’s Land to fight the foreign races and strive to break through.
“As the master of Green-Robed Tower, my disciple has already surpassed me in a short period. If I don’t cultivate, will I still be worthy of being called one of the Five Supreme Heroes?”
Hong Qigong said helplessly. Wang Chongyang had the same thoughts as him.
Among the Five Supreme Heroes, there were the Southern Emperor, Northern Beggar, Eastern Heretic, Western Venom, and Central Divine.
Southern Emperor was nowhere to be found and had not joined the Green Lotus Territory. No one knew if he was dead or alive.
Northern Beggar had joined the Green Lotus Territory’s Martial Arts Tower with medium-level divine arts and established two major martial sects.
After Western Venom joined the Green Lotus Territory, he was surrounded by Guo Jing and the Green-robed soldiers and thrown into the Desert Purgatory.
As for whether he could come out, the two of them did not know.
The last Eastern Heretic was the Deputy Master of the Green Cloud Pavilion. It could be said that he was second only to the two of them.
In the Green Lotus Territory, even if one did not cultivate, one’s cultivation realm could be increased with their salary.
In particular, Eastern Heretic had once invited the two of them to partake in high-grade White Jade Lotus Wine. It could be said that they had been yearning for it.
As for their martial arts sect, they were under the Martial Arts Tower, so they did not have a so-called salary.
It was fine if he wanted the White Jade Lotus Wine.
When he went out to hunt foreign races, he could exchange them for contribution points.
Perhaps due to the influence of Eastern Heretic, the two of them departed from Green Cloud City and made their way to the Dark Wall.
After all, Lin Chaoying did not come over. Instead, she stayed in the Martial Arts Tower in Green Cloud City.
Of course, the most important thing was the Ancient Tomb Sect established by Lin Chaoying. Until now, there were less than a hundred disciples.
“Your disciple is lucky!”
When Wang Chongyang heard Hong Qigong’s words, he couldn’t help but shake his head. He thought of his seven disciples. They only knew how to recite the Daoist Canon and were dispensable for cultivation.
If not for the existence of Quanzhen Sect, his disciples would probably have found a deep mountain to focus on their Dao path.
However, the Quanzhen Sect was one of the Daoist sects, so there was naturally nothing wrong with reciting the Daoist Canon.
“Alright, get ready. General Song will probably be back with news soon. I plan to enter No Man’s Land personally.”
“If I acquire a stargate token, I’ll trade it for a substantial quantity of White Jade Lotus Wine. I won’t have to endure Eastern Heretic’s displays of grandiosity anymore.”
After Hong Qigong finished speaking, he still looked unhappy. After all, every time Eastern Heretic looked for the two of them, he would show off.
No matter what, they were old acquaintances. It was normal for them to show off to each other. There was no need to fight.
After Hong Qigong left, Wang Chongyang began to search for disciples and made preparations to head to No Man’s Land.
For the next few days, apart from recruiting soldiers, the Green Lotus Territory did not do anything else.
However, when Xu Ding returned with the Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry, many people gathered in the Green Cloud Palace.
Mei Changge sat on the throne and restrained his aura, but a golden light flashed in his eyes from time to time.
It was as if a golden lotus flower was flickering in his eyes.
Below him, Xu Ding wore armor and had a serious expression.
“The Phantom Horn race was destroyed and the Mandrill race was severely injured?”
Mei Changge’s eyes were solemn as he tapped his fingers on the armrest of the throne.
After Xu Ding returned, he described the war between the Phantom Horn race and the Mandrill race. He even mentioned that King Mandrill was in the Dharma realm.
“A curse?”
Mei Changge’s heart sank. The leader of the Mandrill race was in the Dharma realm. With his current strength at Transcendent Level 6 and two divine arts, he could unleash the strength of a Transcendent Level 9.
Naturally, this was thanks to the White Jade Spirit Body, which enabled him to contend with a Transcendent Level 9 using his physical prowess.
If the enemy had special divine arts, it would be difficult to say. Furthermore, King Mandrill was in the Dharma realm.
Mei Changge was not confident enough to act rashly.
Most importantly, Xu Chu and the Golden Crow Guards had yet to come out of the Phaseless Soldier Tower.
10,000 Transcendent Golden Crow Guards might not be able to take down King Mandrill, but they could at least trap him for a while.
When the time came, he might have a chance to kill King Mandrill with the Resplendent Star Thrust.
“Everyone, do you have any thoughts about what Xu Ding said?”
Mei Changge looked at the people in the Green Cloud Palace. At that moment, Guo Jia, Huang Yaoshi, Zhao Decai, and the others were all below him.
“My lord, the war between the two races is the best opportunity for our Green Lotus Territory to develop.”
“Now that the Phantom Horn race has been eradicated, the Mandrill race is greatly weakened, and King Mandrill is under a curse, I believe it’s an opportune moment to expand!”
“As for the Thousand Heads race…
Guo Jia suddenly paused. There seemed to be no other way to deal with them, except to be more vigilant.
“My lord, there are only two of the three races left, and the Thousand Heads race is hiding in the dark. I think we should force them out first.’
Huang Yaoshi cupped his hands and suggested to Mei Changge with a serious expression.
Mei Changge nodded slightly when he heard their suggestion.
Given the severe damage to the Mandrill race and King Mandrill’s curse, if he didn’t seize this moment to defeat them, it would unquestionably have a significant impact on the Green Lotus Territory’s expansion when the Mandrill race eventually recuperated.
After all, a powerful individual in the Dharma realm was not easy to resist.
Unless the Green Lotus Territory officially became a Destiny Dynasty, Mei Changge might be able to deal with King Mandrill with the power of Destiny.
“My lord, we have many Grade 8 Spiritual Energy Cannons stored inside the
Creation Workshop. They are also developing Grade 7 cannons at the moment.”
Zhao Decai had a smile on his face. The Creation Workshop had produced Grade 8 Spiritual Energy Cannons and had stored a lot of them. Other than that, be it the Green Lotus Territory or the cities in the Blessed Land, they were all equipped with many Grade 8 Spiritual Energy Cannons.
Regarding the Grade 7 cannons they were researching, Mei Changge upgraded them using destiny points and provided them to the researchers for study.
However, the Creation Workshop had been researching Grade 7 Spiritual
Energy Cannons for nearly two months, but there had been no progress so far.
“My lord, the Green Lotus Market has commenced operations. In just a few days, the profits have been quite substantial. Financing a war should certainly not be an issue.”
At that moment, Hu Hua stood up and said with a serious expression.
As the saying went, war meant money. The soldiers’ weapons and armor were provided by the Spirit Bone Tower. In the Green Lotus Market, there was a dedicated shop established for procuring the corpses of foreign races, which were used to forge armor, weapons, and more.
To increase the strength of the soldiers, the pills refined in the Creation Workshop were given priority to them. These were all managed by Hu Hua of the Myriad Lotus Building.
It could be said that Hu Hua was currently in charge of the finances of the Green Lotus Territory.
However, Hu Hua knew that his position as the Pavilion Master was not easy to obtain. Being able to sit firmly was also the result of his hard work.
“My lord, I’m willing to be the vanguard and suppress the Mandrill race!”
Song Yubai’s expression was serious. He immediately walked out of the crowd and cupped his hands at Mei Changge.
He had returned from the Dark Wall to propose to let the disciples of the martial arts sect exit the Dark Wall and lure the foreign races into the fog.
However, the current situation made him even happier.
After all, this meant that he did not have to guard the Dark Wall and could go to No Man’s Land to fight the foreign races.
“My lord, the Mystic Yang soldiers are also willing to be the vanguards!”
As Song Yubai walked out, Lin Zifeng, Yan Zhen, and the others asked to fight as well.
Only Yue Fei and Han Shizhong looked at Song Yubai and the others enviously.
Mei Changge naturally noticed the gazes of the two of them and could not help but smile.
“Feng Xiao, how’s the recruitment of soldiers in the Green Lotus Territory?”
Mei Changge did not respond to Song Yubai and the others’ request to fight.
Instead, he looked at Guo Jia, who had already retreated to the side.
“My lord, I’ve handed the matter to Qing Feng!”
Guo Jia cupped his hands and said with a smile.
When Mei Changge heard Guo Jia’s words, a hint of surprise appeared on his face. He did not expect Guo Jia to have completely handed this matter to Qing Feng.
“My lord, we have 300 ,ooo people in the Warlord Bastion who have yet to become soldiers. We can expand the number of soldiers at any time.”
Qing Feng walked out of the crowd with a serious expression. This was the first time he had come to the Green Cloud Palace, and he was even attending as a Warlord Bastion.
Although he was a little nervous, he was not afraid at all..
