Upon hearing this, True Lord Qingxu could not help but ponder for a moment, and then asked, "I wonder how much it would cost to rent the formation flags or send disciples to set up the formation?"
"The price."
Ye Linyuan smiled slightly, and then said: "If you let my disciples go to set up the formation, you need to take 30% of the Gathering Spirit Beads as a reward."
"Leasing a formation flag costs less, but you will need to collect 20% of the Spirit Gathering Pearls as compensation."
Upon hearing this, True Lord Qingxu couldn't help but ponder for a moment, then he looked at his fellow disciple beside him.
The commission Ye Linyuan took was not low, but one had to admit that this third-order soul-capturing formation was indeed a unique formation, so it was reasonable to charge this commission.
Thinking of this, they exchanged glances, and True Lord Qingxu smiled bitterly and stroked his beard, saying, "Can you make it cheaper? It's very expensive to clear the countryside. If I want to build a fairy city, I'll also need the demolition fee."
"Forget it, we are all in the same boat, so I will charge you less."
Ye Linyuan was silent for a moment, then discussed with him for a while and lowered the commission rate.
In the end, he would take 20% of the commission for sending disciples to set up the formation, and 15% of the commission for renting flags to set up the formation.
After both parties had discussed all this, the people from the Qingxu Immortal Alliance got up and left.
After they left, Ye Xuqiu looked at his back and said thoughtfully, "It seems that our spiritual veins can be improved faster."
Ye Linyuan also nodded. Fortifying the city and clearing the countryside could greatly slow down the attack speed of the demon clan, and it could even have a miraculous effect of saving lives for most of the Nascent Soul sects.
It is estimated that in the near future, all major sects will come to us and ask to rent the third-level soul-capturing formation flag of the Ye family.
Understanding this, Ye Linyuan looked at Xu Qiu and said, "It seems that you will be busy for a while."
"I see."
Ye Xuqiu nodded, and a smile appeared on his face.
It is not easy to set up a soul-capturing array. A third-order low-grade soul-capturing array requires thirty-six magic weapon array flags, and a third-order mid-grade soul-capturing array requires seventy-two magic weapon array flags.
A third-grade, top-grade soul-capturing array requires one hundred and eight soul-capturing array flags.
If you want to clear the countryside on a large scale, you will definitely need to consume a huge amount of soul-capturing flags.
This requires a huge amount of third-level spiritual silk and third-level spiritual wood. However, the Ye family has no shortage of third-level spiritual wood, and there are now dozens of third-level spiritual silkworms, so these two points will not be a problem.
However, to refine the Soul Capture Array on a large scale, the cooperation of multiple third-level array masters and refiners is required.
"First, rent out the Soul Capture Array that was left behind, and then gather the clan members to start refining a new Soul Capture Array."
Ye Linyuan spoke calmly. After more than seven hundred years of development, the Ye family's immortal clan already had hundreds of Jindan cultivators, among whom there were more than twenty who were good at refining equipment and formations.
However, this life alone is still not enough. If one really wants to quickly and large-scale refine the third-level soul-capturing array, Ye Xuqiu, a fourth-level refiner, will have to take action.
Putting this matter aside, Ye Linyuan immediately took everyone back to Chilong Mountain.
Inside the Red Dragon Mountain, everyone counted the spoils of this battle and couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise.
Ye Linyuan gained a lot in this battle. They killed a total of twelve Nascent Soul Demon Kings, even including the Dangkang Demon King, the overlord of the Yuanzhong.
After killing so many Nascent Soul Demon Kings, Ye Linyuan obtained a large number of rare things, including five spiritual treasures, a large amount of Demon King flesh and blood, inner elixir, bones, leather and other items.
According to Ye Linyuan's estimation, the flesh and blood of the Demon King is enough to refine more than a dozen furnaces of Spirit Essence Pills, and a large amount of materials can also be used to repair the former Yuanying puppet.
As for leather, it can also be used to refine fourth-level talismans. It can be said that they are extremely rare and precious spiritual objects.
In addition, there are various spiritual objects for forming infants and fourth-level treasures of varying values, totaling more than thirty pieces.
"The gains from this battle are not much less than the battle in the Eastern Region not long ago."
"The gains from each of the two wars were enough to equal the accumulation of a force in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul for thousands of years."
Ye Linyuan couldn't help but sigh that war is really the best way for people to rise. As long as they can win the war and survive, the rewards they get will definitely be amazing.
In his previous life, Ye Linyuan had no backing, and was not good at spiritual plants and alchemy, but he was able to cultivate to the great perfection of the golden elixir, which was largely related to his repeated victories in battles.
Although Ye Linyuan had fewer fights in this life, he was well prepared and won every time, so the rewards he got were naturally more amazing.
This has a lot to do with Ye Linyuan's strength. Today, Ye Linyuan is almost comparable to the post-Age giants. With the strength of a giant, it is natural for him to capture such an ordinary Yuanying Zhenjun.
"After consuming this batch of resources, the True Lords of my Ye family should be promoted to the middle stage of Nascent Soul."
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, and then began to process this batch of materials.
Among the treasures he obtained, five spiritual treasures were useless to Ye Linyuan, so they were distributed to everyone in the family, and the rest were used to reinforce the seven fairy city formations.
Only the pair of giant spiritual hammers of the Demon King Dang Kang were forged from a large amount of fourth-grade black iron, and their weight was heavier than an ancient sacred mountain.
Ye Linyuan kept this item for himself, planning to refine it into a fourth-level battle suit in the future.
Although there were a large number of infant-forming spiritual objects and fourth-level rare treasures, none of them were too precious, so Ye Linyuan placed them all in the clan treasury and would use them directly in the future when needed.
What Ye Linyuan valued most were the Demon King’s flesh, blood, inner elixir, bones, leather and other rare treasures.
Among them, the blood of the Demon King was collected by Ye Linyuan. The blood of the Demon King contained the true spiritual essence. After being integrated into the top-grade spiritual field in the future, it should be able to cultivate several acres of top-grade blood spiritual fields.
According to Ye Linyuan's estimation, the blood quality of ordinary Nascent Soul Demon Kings is insufficient, and it takes the blood of at least five Demon Kings to cultivate one acre of top-quality blood spirit field.
But Dang Kang, the True Spirit of Heaven and Earth, is different. His bloodline is already at its peak and can cultivate at least two acres of top-quality blood spirit fields.
The blood of these twelve Demon Kings, plus the blood left over from the previous war in the Eastern Region, is estimated to be able to cultivate five acres of top-grade blood spirit fields.
"With the top-grade blood spirit field, the bloodline spirit medicine can be promoted to the fourth-level middle-grade, and may even reach the fourth-level upper-grade realm."
Ye Linyuan carefully collected the essence and blood, then added various spiritual medicines to mix it, and finally integrated it into the five acres of top-grade blood spiritual soil within the Xuanyuan Taoist Palace.
After processing the Demon King's essence and blood, the Demon King's bones will also be extremely precious.
So he found Ye Yingxu, and together they used the fourth-level materials made from the bones, combined with fourth-level ore and spiritual wood, to refine a batch of fourth-level puppet parts.
With this batch of puppet parts, all the twelve puppet cores obtained from the ancient ruins can finally be put to use.
Ye Yingxu assembled them all and finally formed a military formation consisting of twelve Yuanying early stage puppets. According to Ye Yingxu's estimation, this set of puppet military formations was extremely powerful. If used to fight a defensive positional battle, even against a Yuanying late stage giant, it should be able to barely fight against it.
Of course, this can only be used for defense. Once this set of puppet army formations pursues the late Nascent Soul stage in the early stage, with the speed and perception of the late Nascent Soul stage giants, it is easy to find the flaws of the army formation in the fight.
"It's good at defense but not good at offense. It can only be considered as half of the late Nascent Soul stage, but it is definitely extraordinary for defending the city."
Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart and nodded slightly.
He knew that even with his current strength, he was not sure he could break through the puppet army formation head-on, but he only needed to find a way to separate the army formation and take it down, which would not be too much trouble.
Moreover, with Ye Yingxu's current cultivation level of the early Nascent Soul stage, which is comparable to the spiritual cultivation level of the top middle Nascent Soul stage, even if he activates it, it would be difficult to control this puppet army formation for a long time.
"To perfectly control this puppet army formation, one needs the power of the soul in the late Nascent Soul stage."
Ye Linyuan spoke calmly, looking at Ye Yingxu and said, "I know you have a great opportunity, but your current spiritual cultivation is still insufficient. In the future, remember not to be careless and underestimate the enemy just because of this military formation."
"Don't worry, clan leader. Yingxu understands."
Ye Yingxu nodded, and his excitement about obtaining this puppet army formation diminished a bit.
Seeing this, Ye Linyuan added: "Your puppet army is good at defense, while Xu Qiu is good at seizing opportunities and attacking. If you join forces, you may be able to fight against the late Nascent Soul stage head-on."
"If we face an enemy in the future, you two should try to cooperate with each other."
After arranging this matter, Ye Linyuan began to deal with the remaining inner elixir, flesh, blood and leather.
Ye Linyuan used the remaining flesh and blood and inner elixir of the Demon King to refine it into Essence and Soul Pills, and finally obtained twelve furnaces of extremely precious Essence and Soul Pills.
"With this batch of spirit essence pills, Ao Xuan's cultivation will be enough to break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul."
Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, although this great spirit pill can improve the physical cultivation, it is even more of a treasure for the demon clan to cultivate.
The first batch of Xuanhuang Holy Fruit that Taihuang Saint Lord gave to Ye Linyuan has finally begun to mature. From now on, Ye Linyuan will no longer need the Jingpo Pill to improve his cultivation.
Therefore, Ye Linyuan planned to give all this batch of spirit essence pills to Ao Xuan to help him improve his cultivation.
After all, Ao Xuan is a royal blood dragon, so there should be no bottleneck for him to break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
At this time, Ye Linyuan handed the batch of spirit pills to Ao Xuan, and then calmly said: "After refining this batch of precious pills, are you sure you can break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul?"
"Thank you, Master. With this batch of precious pills, Ao Xuan will be able to break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul within sixty years at the latest."
Looking at this batch of precious pills, Ao Xuan seemed very excited.
Ye Linyuan nodded. After refining the Luotian Blood Flame and the Nanli Sky Fire, Ao Xuan's cultivation level improved rapidly. Now with this large amount of resources, breaking through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul would be a natural result.
Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan pondered and said, "Soon, the True Lords of various sects in the Nanling Immortal Cultivation World will hold a meeting, and there will be a high-level exchange conference at that time."
"I'll take this opportunity to see if I can find one or two more rare fires for you. When the time comes, you can refine them with the opportunity of a breakthrough, and perhaps the chance of success will be higher."
Ao Xuan couldn't help but nodded when he heard this. If he wanted to transform into the legendary top-level true spirit of heaven and earth, the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon, he had to refine eight kinds of rare and exotic fire that were rarely seen in the world.
The best way to refine this rare fire is to refine it when there is a breakthrough opportunity, which will increase the possibility of success.
In fact, there are many underground fire veins in the Southern Region, and Ye Linyuan has been looking for various rare fires for him over the years.
Now, in addition to Luotian Blood Flame and Nanli Sky Fire, Ye Linyuan also found another rare fire for him.
This fire is called "Qian Tian Jin Yan" and belongs to the Geng Jin fire of the Five Elements. It is also one of the most domineering and strange fires.
"Legend has it that the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon controls the flames of the five elements and three wonders, and is the leader of all the fire dragons in the heavens with incredible combat power."
"If you want to cultivate into the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon in the future, you still need to refine the wood-type Azure Sky Fire, the water-type Deep Abyss Mysterious Fire, the earth-type Purgatory Molten Flame, as well as the Dry Blue Ice Flame and the Purple Sky Tribulation Fire."
Ye Linyuan told the story slowly and finally said with some regret: "It's a pity that you refined the Luotian Blood Flame in the past. This is a blood-attributed fire, not the conventional three-magic fire [Songfeng Divine Fire]."
"In the future, this Luotian Blood Flame may become a calamity for you to transform into the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon."
"This is also my fault for not having enough experience back then, otherwise I shouldn't have let you refine the Luotian Blood Flame."
When Ao Xuan heard this, his eyes moved slightly and a look of solemnity appeared on his face.
The Eight Desolate Fire Dragon masters eight kinds of strange fire, namely the five elements of fire: "Qiantian Golden Flame", "Biluo Sky Fire", "Nanli Sky Fire", "Purgatory Molten Flame" and "Cangyuan Mysterious Fire".
These five true fires can be integrated into the legendary "Five Elements Divine Fire", which is one of the supreme divine fires in the legendary fairy world.
There are three strange fires, namely "The Wind Divine Fire", "The Dry Blue Ice Flame" and "The Purple Sky Disaster Fire".
The combination of these three strange fires is the legendary "Samadhi True Fire" that is feared in the fairyland.
The Eight Desolate Fire Dragon possesses the power of the Five Elements and Samadhi, and is a supreme and unrivaled true dragon in the fairy world.
According to the few words Ye Linyuan learned from ancient books, immortals are divided into four realms: scattered immortals, true immortals, celestial immortals, and golden immortals. As for whether there is a higher realm above the golden immortal, it is unknown.
Among them, Yuanshen Zhenjun possesses the power of pure yang divine essence, which can be transformed into immortal essence in the fairy world. Therefore, Yuanshen Zhenjun is also known as Yuanshen Sanxian in the fairy world.
It is precisely because of this that those who had reached the state of primordial spirit in ancient times were qualified to be called the true spirit of heaven and earth.
Because if such a being were born in the fairyland, he would be an immortal and free-spirited person with long life.
The Eight Desolate Fire Dragon is extremely talented. If it were in the fairy world, it would be a peerless powerful being with the potential to at least reach the level of a celestial fairy.
"I've gone down a wrong path."
Ao Xuan spoke slowly, and then said decisively: "In this era, the Eight Desolate Rare Fires are extremely rare. It is almost a foolish dream to want to gather them all."
"Master, I am extremely grateful for finding the rare fire for me. How could I blame you for your kindness?"
At this point, Ao Xuan smiled and said, "And I feel that this Luotian Blood Flame is a near-perfect match for Ao Xuan."
Ye Linyuan nodded, then patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him, "Legend has it that the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon is the ancient supreme spirit of heaven and earth, even more powerful than the Heavenly Demon Saint Emperor who controls the body of the Seven Absolutes."
“You may have taken the wrong path, but we, the later generations, may be able to surpass our predecessors and forge a path that is unique to us.” (End of this chapter)
