Arrangements for the Many Spirit Veins
Upon hearing of another battle, they immediately expressed their willingness to join the fight.
Upon seeing this, Ling Pengyun's face lit up with approval.
Since he already had a plan, he did not stop these people from participating in the war this time, but instead agreed with joy.
"Those who cherish their Lineage are all good sons of the Ling Clan."
"Since you are all willing to participate in the Lineage's battle to conquer the Muddy Swamp, I will grant your request."
Upon hearing this, the joy on the faces of everyone present increased even further.
"Thank you for granting permission to fight, Old Ancestor." Immediately, everyone expressed their gratitude in unison.
"Alright, stop with the formalities. Except for Peng Lin and Peng Qiu, everyone else, go to the mountainside and find a place to build houses and live."
Ling Pengyun waved his hand and said.
Upon hearing this, the disciples of the "Wan Generation immediately left.
Before long, only Ling Pengyun, Ling Pengqiu, and Ling Penglin remained atop the mountain peak hidden in the clouds.
"Peng Qiu, Peng Lin, our clan is currently short-handed, and we are about to engage in battle with the Swamp Giant Crocodile Clan of the Muddy Swamp Territory."
"There are many Spirit Vein in this vast area of Lingxiao Ridge, and it is difficult to spare manpower to take care of them."
"Therefore, apart from the Three Dwarf Mountains and one valley next to Cloud Peak, which have four places with Second Rank Spirit Vein, I plan to rent out the other five hundred-plus First Rank Spirit Vein and a dozen-plus Second Rank Spirit Vein in Lingxiao Ridge."
"I have already informed Hundred Spirits Sect about this matter and asked them to help spread the word."
"At least 30% of the Rogue Cultivator from the Yan Kingdom have poured into the White Cloud Mountain Range. There are at least 50,000 of these Rogue Cultivator. The Yan Country Five Sects have enough manpower to digest the Demon Beast territories and Spirit Vein they occupy."
"That's why those Rogue Cultivator find it difficult to occupy Spirit Vein in the White Cloud Mountain Range."
"And Spirit Vein are essential for cultivation. I imagine that when those Rogue Cultivator learn that the Spirit Vein in my Ling Clan's territory are being leased, they will all come to take a look."
"At that time, if anyone is truly interested in renting Spirit Vein, we can use the requirement of renting Spirit Vein as a condition, allowing those Rogue Cultivator who want to rent Spirit Vein to exchange it for battle merits."
"In that case, our Ling Clan will have enough manpower to attack the Muddy Swamp Territory."
Ling Pengyun explained in detail.
Upon hearing this, Ling Pengqiu and Ling Penglin were both reluctant to rent out the Spirit Vein that their family had worked so hard to obtain to Rogue Cultivator.
After all, those Spirit Vein are gold mines, and there are many of them. Just by planting Spirit Plant, those Spirit Plant can bring in at least tens of thousands of Spirit Stone every year.
However, the two also knew that Ling Pengyun's arrangement was the most beneficial arrangement for the Ling Clan's current situation.
With those Rogue Cultivator joining the Ling Clan, Golden Core Family with limited manpower, the Ling Clan's chances of conquering the Muddy Swamp Territory would be much greater.
At the same time, the Spirit Vein that the Ling Clan had no one to guard could also be revitalized.
Ling Pengqiu and Ling Penglin therefore agreed to the matter.
Then, the meticulous Ling Penglin looked at the three low mountains outside Cloud Peak, each with a Second Grade Middle Rank Spirit Vein, and the valley with a Second Rank High Grade Spirit Vein, and asked Ling Pengyun.
"Third Brother, what are your plans regarding those four Second Rank Spirit Vein?"
Ling Pengyun answered the question in detail.
"The valley several miles away, which also possesses Second Rank High Grade Spirit Vein, was named Spirit Medicine Valley and was used specifically for cultivating spirit medicine."
"The other three low mountains have Second Grade Middle Rank Spirit Vein. One of them is specifically used to raise Spirit Beast and is named Spirit Beast Mountain."
"This time, I searched for over a hundred Demon Beast cubs in the Cloud Stepping Forest within the Ta Yun Cloud Stepping Ridge region, and found over two hundred more Demon Beast cubs in other parts of Cloud Stepping Ridge. This brings my total number of Demon Beast cubs to over three hundred."
"In addition, the Lineage has nurtured Spirit Beast in the back mountain for decades, which have multiplied to a hundred. Our family currently has more than four hundred Demon Beast under our control."
"I plan to raise all four hundred-plus Demon Beast in the Spirit Beast Mountain."
"With the help of the rich Spiritual Qi within that Second Grade Middle Rank Spirit Vein, those Demon Beast can also improve their cultivation faster."
"Cheng Xin, who is stationed at Serpent Dragon Marketplace, found a Second Rank Alchemy Inheritance that can be paired with Spirit Beast and a second-tier Beast Taming Inheritance for the Lineage last year. I thought that in the future, we should focus on developing the Lineage's beast taming skills."
"In this way, with the help of Spirit Beast, the shortage of manpower in our Ling Clan can be made up for by the large number of Spirit Beast."
"The other two low mountains with Second Grade Middle Rank Spirit Vein will be used to grow Spirit Plant."
"That low mountain covered with yellow earth was named Yellow Earth Mountain."
"The low mountain covered with black soil was named Black Earth Mountain."
"I will handle the matter of developing Spirit Field in these two mountains, along with Spirit Medicine Valley and Cloud Peak."
Seeing that Ling Pengyun had considered everything clearly, big and small, Ling Penglin and Ling Pengqiu felt even more respect for Ling Pengyun, a powerful cultivator who had reached the Golden Core stage.
After a brief chat, the three of them went about their respective duties.
Ling Penglin, Array Formation Master who had just entered the Second Grade Middle Rank a few years ago, also began to set up the most suitable second-tier formations for the five spiritual mountains, namely Cloud Peak Spirit Medicine Valley, Yellow Earth Mountain, Black Earth Mountain, and Spirit Beast Mountain, based on the Earth Vein of the five places.
Ling Pengyun first went to the Spirit Beast Mountain and released the more than three hundred young Demon Beast beasts that were in his Beast Taming Pouch into the mountain.
They also assigned Ling Pengqiu, a fire magic genius, to guard the more than three hundred young Demon Beast beasts in the mountains.
Subsequently, Ling Pengyun tirelessly developed Spirit Field in four locations: Cloud Peak, Spirit Medicine Valley, Yellow Earth Mountain, and Black Earth Mountain.
Since Cloud Peak was regarded as a temporary place to settle down, Ling Pengyun specially reserved a lot of Spiritual Qi for the cultivators in the mountain to use for cultivation. He only developed thirty acres of First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Field Spirit Field, ten Second Rank Low Grade- quality spiritual fields, five Second Grade Middle Rank Spirit Field, and five Second Rank High Grade Spirit Field in the mountain, for a total of forty acres of Spirit Field.
The Second Rank High Grade Spirit Field in Spirit Medicine Valley has been entirely used to develop Spirit Field, except for a portion of the Spiritual Qi reserved to maintain the formation.
This also resulted in the development of as many as eighty acres of Spirit Field within this valley, including twenty first-grade lower, middle, and upper-grade Spirit Field, ten Second Rank Low Grade Spirit Field fields, and five second-grade middle and upper-grade Spirit Field.
Yellow Earth Mountain and Black Earth Mountain, two Spirit Field mountains with Second Grade Middle Rank spiritual fields, have fewer Spirit Field developed due to the lower grade of their Spirit Field. However, each mountain has developed ten acres of first-tier lower, middle, and upper-grade Spirit Field, ten acres of Second Rank Low Grade Spirit Field, and ten acres of Second Grade Middle Rank Spirit Field.
During the process of developing the Spirit Field, Ling Pengyun also planted various Spirit Plant seeds that he had prepared in advance in the newly developed Spirit Field.
Having accomplished this task, Ling Pengyun returned to Cloud Peak Mountain and informed Ling Penglin was in the mountain, of his intention to enter seclusion for an extended period.
He then entrusted the matter of renting Spirit Vein from independent Rogue Cultivator to Ling Penglin and Ling Pengqiu.
Both of them were quite strong. Ling Penglin had the Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer, while Ling Pengqiu had reached the Foundation Establishment Seventh Layer. Among the Rogue Cultivator Rogue Cultivator in the Yan Kingdom, they were among the most powerful and capable of holding their own among them.
The path of cultivation for Rogue Cultivator is extremely difficult. Among thousands of Rogue Cultivator, only one person with exceptional fortuitous opportunity might be able to reach the Foundation Establishment.
After reaching the Foundation Establishment, the resources required for cultivation are enormous, Rogue Cultivator have no support. This is why most Rogue Cultivator, after reaching the Foundation Establishment, linger in the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment.
Only a few can reach the Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment.
Among the Rogue Cultivator of the Yan Kingdom, those who can reach the Late-Stage Foundation Establishment are fewer than two counts, and those who can reach the Foundation Establishment Completion are only three.
