"Most importantly," Ye Junlin continued, his tone laced with a hint of pride, "the main and sub-monuments are covered with an Immortal Crystal Membrane. Attacks below the Land Immortal realm won't even scratch it; any forceful impact will only result in a spiritual energy backlash."
"Furthermore, the main and sub-monuments are linked. If one is attacked, the other will immediately be alerted."
"Completing high-value missions worth over ten million Low-grade Spirit Stones will also trigger a spiritual light from the main monument, resonating with Misty Rain Tower's concealment formation, making our stronghold even harder to detect!"
As his words fell, the grand hall fell silent for a moment before erupting in a chorus of gasps.
Zhuan Zhu slammed his thigh, his eyes shining brightly. "Brilliant! Truly brilliant! With this, we won't have to expose our tracks when taking on missions anymore. It's practically tailor-made for us assassins!"
Yu Rang also nodded in admiration. "Lord is wise! This way, Eternal Night Heaven can grow stronger in the shadows, without worrying about our stronghold's location being leaked when we accept missions!"
Cao Mo gazed at the majestic main monument, feeling the steady aura emanating from its body, and added in a deep voice, "With this powerful tool in hand, we can seize all the bounty missions in Qingzhou City and even further regions in the future. The day Eternal Night Heaven rises is within reach!"
Yuan Tiangang also exclaimed in surprise, "Lord's foresight is remarkable. This artifact not only solves the hidden dangers of mission acceptance,"
"but it can also accumulate immense Spirit Stones for Eternal Night Heaven and bolster our reputation. It's truly killing multiple birds with one stone!"
Ye Junlin looked at everyone's excited expressions, feeling immensely satisfied.
He pointed at the main monument and announced loudly, "From today onwards, this Bounty Master Stele will be erected in the Misty Rain Tower stronghold. All future missions will be accepted through the main monument."
"Understood!" everyone responded in unison, their voices resonant and powerful, echoing throughout the grand hall.
For a time, the atmosphere in the hall became incredibly fervent.
Excitement and anticipation shone on everyone's faces as they looked at the dark, colossal monument, as if they could already see the brilliant future of Eternal Night Heaven's rise.
He slowly walked to a sub-monument, gently stroking its cool surface. His gaze swept over the eagerly expectant crowd below, and he spoke with conviction, "Everyone, the function of this bounty monument is clear. Instead of endless discussion, let's test it out first."
"I've decided to find a suitable location in the Black Market of Qingzhou City to set up a sub-monument."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall felt a surge of energy.
Ye Junlin's tone shifted as he continued, "In addition, you must also use the Black Market to quietly spread the method of using the sub-monument."
"Inform those who have bounty needs that there is a wordless ancient monument here. They can engrave the target's information and the bounty Spirit Stones with their spiritual energy, and someone will surely accept it."
Nie Zheng was taken aback at first, then a sharp glint flashed in his eyes. He cupped his fist and declared loudly, "Lord is wise!"
"This way, we don't have to actively recruit. Those who need our services will come to us proactively. It saves time and effort, and it maximizes our ability to conceal our tracks!"
Zhuan Zhu also nodded repeatedly. "The Black Market is full of hidden talents, and news travels extremely fast. Within three days, many people will surely come to investigate."
"Then we just need to wait and see how many bounties this sub-monument attracts."
Yu Rang also nodded in agreement. "This method is excellent. It tests the sub-monument's effectiveness without exposing ourselves. It's truly a win-win!"
Ye Junlin's eyes flashed with approval as he listened to everyone's words.
This was exactly the kind of silent maneuver he wanted – to subtly extend Eternal Night Heaven's reach into every corner of Qingzhou City before anyone noticed.
Ye Junlin then said with a serious expression, "Now that the stronghold is established and we have the bounty monument, we must arrange the next course of action. Jing Ke and Yao Li are already stationed at the Qingzhou City stronghold."
"Cao Mo, Nie Zheng, Zhuan Zhu, and Yu Rang, the four of you will also head to the Misty Rain Tower stronghold to rendezvous with them."
He paused, emphasizing, "The six of you are the Eight Guards. You must work together in unity to defend the stronghold and handle any potential missions that arise."
"Your subordinate understands!" Nie Zheng and the other three responded in unison, their eyes showing a hint of solemnity.
They knew well that Misty Rain Tower was Eternal Night Heaven's gateway to the Eastern Region, and their responsibility was immense.
Ye Junlin looked at Di Yun and Linghu Chong again and said gravely, "Furthermore, various forces in Qingzhou City are currently stirring. We must not let our guard down."
"You two can operate in Qingzhou City, cooperating with Yuan Tiangang to help establish an intelligence network and gather information. You can also provide timely support if Misty Rain Tower receives a Nirvana Realm mission or is attacked."
Di Yun and Linghu Chong nodded in acknowledgment. "Your subordinate obeys."
Linghu Chong then chuckled heartily, "Lord, rest assured! If anyone dares to lay a hand on Misty Rain Tower, my sword will show no mercy!"
Ye Junlin looked at Yuan Tiangang and said solemnly, "Currently, we are short on manpower. While you are building the intelligence network, you must also be stationed at Misty Rain Tower."
Yuan Tiangang replied, "Lord, please rest assured! Your subordinate will ensure Misty Rain Tower is completely secure!"
"With the assistance of Di Yun and Linghu Chong, the establishment of the intelligence network will surely be several times faster."
Ye Junlin nodded in satisfaction. "Good. Each of you will perform your duties. We must consolidate Eternal Night Heaven's foundation in Qingzhou within the shortest possible time."
"Your subordinate obeys!" everyone responded in unison, their imposing aura filling the air.
