Afraid that Qian True Person would say anything more, Zheng Fa hurriedly sent him away.

He followed Senior Sister Zhang to the main hall of Heavenly Palace Island. Senior Sister Zhang didn't say much, but Zheng Fa felt a little guilty for no reason., changed the topic and said, "Venerable Tongming has already replied, and they are willing to use Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha to pay. If there is any shortage, Spirit Stone spiritual materials will be used to make up for it."

Senior Sister Zhang glanced at him and walked forward without mentioning anything Tang Lingwu. He just nodded and said, "This is quite convenient."

Zheng Fa also thinks it's good, as it prevents them from having to acquire it themselves.

"They have quite a lot of Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha." Thinking of this, Zheng Fa couldn't help but sigh.

"This is as it should be." Senior Sister Zhang nodded. "These days...Hundred Immortals Alliance has lost many disciples."

Senior Sister Zhang said slowly and authentically, Zheng Fa didn't understand it at first, but later I understood it and felt a little bit hellish in my heart:

Hundred Immortals Alliance Many people died... so some spiritual materials remained.

Although Hundred Immortals Alliance has also lost a lot of resources, especially spiritual fields, most monks collect things like Qi of Heavenly Dipper and Earthly Sha early for Core Formation...

Some monks will also prepare some things for their younger disciples.

When those sects are on the run, Lingtian Spirit Vein is not easy to take with them.

But this kind of thing is easy to carry around, so you won't notice that it is missing for a while.

On the contrary, because of the death of many disciples...Qi of Heavenly Dipper and Earthly Sha increased.

How to describe it?

The person died and the money was not spent.

It is precisely because of this that Hundred Immortals Alliance may be more willing to use these temporarily useless spiritual materials as payment - they also sold a lot of Qi of Heavenly Dipper and Earthly Sha before.

Zheng Fa Suddenly felt that it would be difficult to make money from an alliance...

"Then Madam Xuanhua, what are you going to do?"

Senior Sister Zhang suddenly asked again.

Zheng Fa was slightly silent.

Madam Xuanhua... it's quite important to the Nine Mountains Realm now.

The newly released eleven-door Golden Core method needs to be verified - this requires another External Core experiment.

Although Nine Mountains Sect is not impossible, having one more Madam Xuanhua will definitely make a big difference.

This is a trivial matter.

Zheng Fa's Life-bound Dharma Treasure is where the master of weapon refining is more needed.

"After all, we have experience in cooperation. It would be best if we can continue to cooperate." Zheng Fa said, "If you can't, don't force it."

Senior Sister Zhang nodded slowly.

"It's the same as what I thought. Madam Xuanhua is very capable and gets along well with us..."

"What's more important is that she is alone."

Zheng Fa was stunned. It wasn't that he didn't understand what Senior Sister Zhang meant, but... Senior Sister Zhang somehow thought of going with him again!

Hundred Immortals Alliance's letter meant that although he couldn't see through it, he could not escape it from Jiang Chengkong.

From this point of view, if Nine Mountains Realm wants to be at peace, the tree may want to be quiet but the wind will not stop.

These days, Zheng Fa has been thinking about a question:

Who is the enemy of the Nine Mountains Sect, who is the friend of the Nine Mountains Sect...

Of course, because he had not investigated and had too little information, he could only look at things in the fog.

But on the other hand, Zheng Fa has some judgments:

Five Sects of Xuanwei, plus Demonic Sect, are probably the forces that need to be wary of the most - unless they are like Yan Wushuang Old Han, who picks up the bowl to eat and then puts the bowl down ready to overturn the table.

The reason for this naturally does not lie in good or evil, but in the Venerable Tianhe perspective, the New Method new order envisioned by Zheng Fa may not be accepted by these big forces.

From Five Sects of Xuanwei down, the major sects are actually worthy of vigilance:

For example, Hundred Immortals Alliance, a Supreme Dao background may pop up accidentally - but compared to Five Sects of Xuanwei, there is no need to worry so much. For example, Tianhe Secret Realm may not have been known to the Hundred Immortals Alliance before.

The ones that are more trustworthy are those like Madam Xuanhua, which have less close relationships with various forces.

Of course, everyone has their own personality, and there are many bad characters in Rogue Cultivator.

But from a New Method perspective, the hidden dangers are not that big.

Next, there are Xuanwei mortals - they have not enjoyed any benefits in the Five Sects of Xuanwei system. On the contrary, they have a difficult life, and naturally they will not sincerely support the five Immortal Sect.

The most trustworthy ones are naturally Nine Mountains Realm disciples and ordinary people.

This is why, Zheng Fa's ideas are almost all about laying a solid foundation, from bottom to top...

Because he is worried about the superiors!

The most valuable thing about Madam Xuanhua is that he is not deeply involved with major forces, but he is very capable.

He had vaguely sorted out this idea recently and had never told anyone about it.

Unexpectedly, Senior Sister Zhang... clicked it directly!

Zheng Fa raised his eyes and looked towards Senior Sister Zhang, only to see Senior Sister Zhang glance at him, his eyes full of meaning...

"I think Madam Xuanhua is very happy staying at the Nine Mountains Realm." Zheng Fa coughed lightly and said, "Why don't we show her the eleven External Core Method doors first?"

Senior Sister Zhang smiled, probably because he understood in his heart - this is another one of Junior Brother Zheng's old tricks: the so-called temptation of knowledge.

But it happens to be quite effective.

It's no use repeating the same old tricks!

"Madam, what did you say?"

Zheng Fa held a Jade Slip in his hand, feeling a little confused.

"I... would like to be the elder of the Yijiushan Sect. I wonder if Sect Leader can take him in?"

Madam Xuanhua thought about it these days, and finally figured it out, and said directly to Zheng Fa.

Xiao Yuying, who was standing next to the two of them, had already expected it - this woman had been thinking about it over and over for many days, and it almost annoyed her to death... She finally made up her mind today.

"Um..."

Zheng Fa couldn't help but glance at the Jade Slip in his hand. Jade Slip contained the eleven newly organized External Core Method doors.

This thing was originally used by Zheng Fa to seduce Madam Xuanhua.

But...

I didn't even take off my clothes, so you just...

Huh?

He looked at Madam Xuanhua and saw that the other party had a calm expression on his face, as if he had already thought about it, and he had a calm determination.

In this way, Zheng Fa hesitated.

"Ma'am... may I ask why this is so?"

"To tell you the truth Sect Leader, I'm greedy for that <Golden Core Engineering>."

Madam Xuanhua said frankly.

"I will not hide <Golden Core Engineering> from Madam either."

"What about the principle behind <Golden Core Engineering>?"

Madam Xuanhua smiled lightly.

"..."

Zheng Fa was silent for a moment. To be honest, he didn't want to hide it.

But this thing only takes a while, and Madam Xuanhua can't learn it.

The required knowledge ranges from Mathematics, to Physics, and finally Engineering...

It can be said that the thinking of the <Golden Core Engineering> project team is actually still in the modern era.

But he also understood what Madam Xuanhua meant. She was afraid that Zheng Fa would have a hand in it.

This is really overestimating one's own brain and underestimating Zheng Fa's heart...

Zheng Fa is not angry at all, Madam Xuanhua is just inferring his thoughts based on the Xuanwei Realm's common sense.

He thought for a while and said:

"If you are my Nine Mountains Sect, madam, can you understand my Nine Mountains Sect rules?"

"Understood..."

Madam Xuanhua couldn't help but reveal a trace of heartache on his face.

Zheng Fa knows why she feels pain:

Because we want to open Nine Mountains Sect and develop Economic Development Island, Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Zhang, we have just discussed the regulations on how to collect taxes and rents.

The regulations are roughly divided into two parts:

One is Economic Development Island's Consumption Tax, which is very similar to the previous Nine Mountains Sect Market.

Another thing that has happened before is that spontaneous transactions between the Nine Mountains Sect disciples and the outside world... including transactions not carried out by Economic Development Island, are also subject to tax.

In other words, as long as it is produced, you have to pay...

For each product, Senior Sister Zhang has a tax rate stipulated based on the internal situation of the Nine Mountains Sect.

Simply put, Value-Added Tax.

There are many reasons for this, the most important one is the consumption issue raised by Uncle-Master Pang: Spiritual Qi.

Whether it's drawing talismans or refining weapons, all Nine Mountains Realm and Spiritual Qi are consumed.

Fortunately for the Nine Mountains Realm disciples, after all, there is not much difference from the previous rules of the Nine Mountains Sect. Their ability to do business with external parties is also due to the training of the sect.

Whether it is the various knowledge on University Island or the place of residence in the Nine Mountains Realm, they are all priceless treasures in the Xuanwei Realm.

This is also required for the normal operation of the Nine Mountains Sect - to be honest, now, Nine Mountains Realm's investment in disciples is increasing, but the income is not high.

But for Madam Xuanhua... this is like grabbing meat from between her teeth. After all, she did business before, but no one asked her to collect taxes.

Seeing her like this, Zheng Fa smiled, and then handed the Jade Slip over.

Madam Xuanhua took Jade Slip, Divine Soul sank into it, and looked at it...

Slowly, a smile appeared on her face. When she opened her eyes again, the pain in her face disappeared, her eyes were bright, and she sighed:

"It was only after reading this that I realized that it would not be a loss for me to join Nine Mountains Sect."

Zheng Fa understands what she means:

The eleven simplified Golden Core method is naturally extremely precious.

But what Madam Xuanhua values is actually the ability to optimize the Golden Core method in batches!

The so-called principle of <Golden Core Engineering>!

This is the reason why Madam Xuanhua took the initiative to join the group.

However, Zheng Fa smiled and said, "This thing was actually discussed with Madam before... Even if Madam doesn't join Nine Mountains Sect, I will take it out."

Madam Xuanhua was stunned for a moment, with regret appearing on his face.

It seems like I feel like I'm at a loss again.

"There's just something. If Madam hadn't been willing to put it in my Nine Mountains, I wouldn't have shown it to Madam until I died."

"What?"

Madam Xuanhua was stunned for a moment and asked. Zheng Fa did not speak to her again, but suddenly turned to Xiao Yuying and said frankly, "This matter is my Nine Mountains Sect's top secret, so... I'm afraid I can't let you Xiao Fairy know about it."

Xiao Yuying:"..."

She silently took two steps back and saw Zheng Fa smiling apologetically at him, leading Madam Xuanhua towards University Island.

Seeing the two people walking away, Xiao Yuying squinted his eyes, feeling quite uncomfortable...

I came first!

What Zheng Fa wants to hide from Xiao Yuying is actually Nine Mountains Sect's top secret - he is planning to try an electron microscope on the Nine Mountains Realm... and even experimental equipment like Particle Collider.

Originally it was impossible.

But since Senior Sister Zhang and Xiao Yuying discovered the Shielding Rune in Communication Talisman, this has become feasible.

The idea of Zheng Fa is to create the Nine Mountains version of the experimental equipment based on the corresponding principles, combined with Thunder Method and the tool refining method--

He didn't want to do anything unnecessary, but he wanted to study the spiritual materials themselves. You must have spiritual materials...

What can be studied in modern times is the particles produced by Golden Core, which cannot be compared with other spiritual materials.

Therefore, it is extremely necessary to analyze the spiritual materials in the Nine Mountains Realm.

To be honest, this thing is high-tech in modern times, and it's not like Golden Core or Xuanwei Realm originally had it...

Zheng Fa attaches great importance to it far more than other...

When grading all Nine Mountains Sect knowledge, some knowledge, Zheng Fa and Nine Mountains Sect will not be passed on to others -

For example, Secret of the Mountain Stone is derived from the Tianhe Secret Realm.

Another example is the newly built laboratory and the principles of various experimental instruments.

These are considered top secret. Even under the Nine Mountains Sect and Nascent Soul, it would be difficult to access this part of the information.

Frankly speaking, he trusts Xiao Yuying, but... Xiao Yuying has a master Spirit Transformation after all, and he is not Nine Mountains Sect's master.

He handed several Jade Slip to Madam Xuanhua.

Jade Slip contains the principles and design ideas of various experimental equipment.

"Ma'am, what do you think?"

"I can roughly understand it, but I don't quite understand why..." Madam Xuanhua, "I need these things."

It was obvious that she was really confused.

After all, the experimental instruments or ideas involved are mostly used for observation, measurement and experimentation.

The idea of Law Treasure is completely different from that of the Xuanwei Realm.

Xuanwei Realm and Law Treasure are mostly used for combat. Of course, some are good at observation, but they almost never fall out of the category of being helpful in combat - similar to a telescope.

But these Law Artifact ideas given by Zheng Fa have no fighting skills at all, but they are all about observation and measurement.

What Madam Xuanhua doesn't understand is here.

"Madam..." Zheng Fa thought for a while and then said to Madam Xuanhua, "Observe, guess, and verify. This is the original intention of me, Nine Mountains Realm, Immortal Method."

"..." Madam Xuanhua is a little confused, she is a newcomer after all.

Seeing her confusion, Zheng Fa changed her explanation:

"Madam is a master of weapon refining, so I dare to ask..."

"What does the spiritual material consist of?"

"Law Treasure Why does it need to be trained with spiritual materials?"

"What is the difference between Spirit Treasure and Law Treasure?"

"And what is the difference between Life-bound Dharma Treasure and ordinary Law Treasure?"

Madam Xuanhua looked at Zheng Fa blankly, his expression a little broken--

No, if I want to know this, would I be here?

Can I change my name to Immortal Venerable Xuanhua?

"This is the tool I use to explore these issues..."

Zheng Fa pointed at Jade Slip in her hand and said with a smile.

Madam Xuanhua's expression changed, and he actually understood. "Observe..."

Zheng Fa smiled and nodded.

Madam Xuanhua was a little silent, as if he wanted to believe it, but at the same time he seemed not to want to believe it.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Zheng Fa took out another Jade Slip.

"Also, here are some of my ideas... for your reference, madam."

"Imagine?"

Madam Xuanhua was stunned for a moment and found that when he said this, Zheng Fa didn't care that much. It seemed that the things in Jade Slip were not that important.

But when she took the Jade Slip and took a look, she was shocked. She just felt that these things were much more intuitive than the various experimental instruments in the Jade Slip just now!

"A train for mortals and lower disciples?"

"The city that never sleeps?"

"Give the disciples a tool to check their bodies?"

"..."

Madam Xuanhua As I read and read, the final voice became smaller and smaller.

"This is..."

"These are some random ideas of mine." Zheng Fa said with a smile, "I just want to show you, Madam. If it is feasible in the future, we will give it a try."

With the Shielding Rune, it is not only an experimental instrument, but also many modern products that the Zheng Fa wants to build in the Nine Mountains Realm - such as installing a street light on the Half-Mountain City and letting the Nine Mountains Realm have a maglev train to ride on.

Of course there are some things in between that are not suitable for the Nine Mountains Realm - Shielding Rune has limited scope and function, and it requires spiritual power. It is not completely cost-free, of course there are limitations.

Therefore, Zheng Fa said that these were his wild fantasies.

Madam Xuanhua nodded slowly and heard Zheng Fa say:

"Madam, I have always thought that... the meaning of weapon refining should not lie in killing people, but in making the world live a better life."

"..." Madam Xuanhua was silent for a while, then nodded slightly.

Because these things were top secret, even Jade Slip could not be taken out of the laboratory. Madam Xuanhua read those Jade Slip back and forth in the laboratory for more than half a month, until he felt dizzy, and then returned to his yard.

In the courtyard, Xiao Yuying was waiting for her.

"How?"

Seeing her covering her head and looking like she was about to explode, Xiao Yuying asked curiously.

"Tired! I've never been so tired in my life!"

Those Jade Slip want to use Thunder Method and the refining tool to achieve it, it is not a very simple matter.

In particular, Nine Mountains Sect is a passable refiner, which is Madam Xuanhua... Naturally, those who can do it will have to work harder.

"Then what?"

"I didn't know Zheng Fa had so many wonderful ideas."

"Huh?" Xiao Yuying raised his eyebrows, confused.

"I should have made up my mind a long time ago!" Madam Xuanhua suddenly laughed, "... I tell you, then Zheng Fa..."

She seemed to want to say something, but she lightly covered her mouth.

Smiled sheepishly.

Xiao Yuying rolled his eyes.

I heard Madam Xuanhua sigh and said, "If I had known this, why would I have struggled so much! Wouldn't it be better if I had surrendered to the Nine Mountains Sect earlier?"

"..."

Xiao Yuying stood up.

"I'm telling you, I finally understand what it means to get what you want before you give it back... This time, it's not a loss!"

"Oh, you want to leave?"

Xiao Yuying had a straight face and didn't want to answer her words.

"Let me tell you, when you spoke before, this was the tone."

Xiao Yuying's eyes widened and he pointed at himself.

Madam Xuanhua nodded slightly.

"You have a painful face, do you have any Spirit Transformation magnanimity? Do you understand what it means to get what you want, you must give it first?"

In the sky, dozens of flying boats were coming towards the Nine Mountains Sect. On the boat in the middle, Venerable Chengkong was holding a pot of Spirit Bamboo while scolding Venerable Tongming:

"Then give Nine Mountains Sect whatever they want!"

"In the future, if Nine Mountains Sect returns to the door of the Hundred Immortals Alliance, wouldn't this mean that the left hand is the right hand? Why are you so stingy?"

Venerable Tongming Na Na doesn't speak.

But I couldn't help but mutter in my heart - left hand instead of right hand?

Hundred Immortals Alliance will all be handed over to others!

"I know you don't Qi Ingestion..." But Venerable Chengkong glanced at him again and hummed, "With Zheng Fa's talent, how can he take Hundred Immortals Alliance into his eyes in the future?"

"..."

Venerable Tongming slowly widened his eyes.

"When this thing is over, I will take him back to Supreme Dao. How could I, Supreme Dao, care about a little Hundred Immortals Alliance? Isn't this Hundred Immortals Alliance your world again? It's just a name!"

Venerable Tongming couldn't help but nodded repeatedly. He looked at the Spirit Bamboo in Venerable Chengkong's hand and asked curiously, "Envoy, what is this Spirit Bamboo that you value so much?"

Venerable Chengkong thought for a while and said, "It's okay to tell you. This Spirit Bamboo is called Pure Tranquility Bamboo. It is a secret treasure of my Supreme Dao... the most restrained Great Freedom Demon Cult."

Venerable Tongming was startled and said hurriedly, "What if this Spirit Bamboo is not good?"

"Then don't think about the Hundred Immortals Alliance, think about how to escape."

"..."

Venerable Tongming Looking at Spirit Bamboo, I felt that the yellow mottled leaves on the bamboo leaves were becoming more and more dazzling...
