We want the Dao Academy to be established quickly and effectively.
It is undoubtedly a very complex and massive undertaking.
If the Great Xia simply wanted a sect that could gather resources, it would be much simpler.
But that wouldn't be of much help to Lu Li or to the Great Xia.
The establishment of the Beyond Heaven Dao Academy is both inevitable and necessary in the century-long strategic goal plan.
Dao Academy play a very important role in strategic objectives.
Going it alone is not in line with the development path of Great Xia, and it is also too inefficient.
Only by uniting all can we have a chance to successfully achieve our centennial goal, Hibernating Dragon Startles the Abyss!
In the Great Xia's vision, once the Beyond Heaven Dao Academy is fully developed, it will Dao Academy its doors wide.
To the greatest extent possible, the academy will absorb cultivators, and after systematic learning, education, and cultivation, these disciples will become integral parts of the Dao Academy.
To bring light and warmth to the Dao Academy.
Of course, it's not just these three prefectures; according to the Great Xia's plan...
In the future, the tentacles of the Dao Academy, under the cover of the Nether Toad, will extend to the powerful demons of the nearby Blessed Land.
If possible, even the powerful demons are included in the Dao Academy's conquest plan!
"I just don't know how long it will take for all of this to come to fruition."
After seeing Xu Xiong and Changming Changye off, Lu Li took a deep breath as he watched their retreating figures.
The three of them had been making preparations overnight for the development and construction of the Dao Academy.
As the head of the Dao Academy, he naturally couldn't be idle.
However, before that, the most important thing for him right now is undoubtedly to take stock of his 'assets'.
Of the original Azure Pool Sect Sect's inventory, Yuanhao only has one-fifth.
"Hmm, let me see how much one-fifth is, and then I'll gather the rest together later."
With a slight flicker in his eyes, Lu Li took out the sect's Storage Bag.
The Storage Bag is noticeably more luxurious in color, with streaks of gold.
Judging from the Formation Inscription Artifact Inscription on it, this is actually a third-tier Storage Bag.
"Buzz!"
He probed the Storage Bag with his Divine Sense.
Even though Lu Li was mentally prepared.
They were all stunned into silence by the sight before them.
Before my eyes, Spirit Stone, elixirs, spirit ores, medicinal herbs, Law Artifact, and Jade Slip slips containing various Cultivation Method were piled up like mountains.
He was dazzled by what he saw; inside were array plates, Demon Beast corpses, and all sorts of unusual magical Law Artifact.
There were also dozens of stone golems.
Although their quality is not high, mostly first or second tier items, the quantity is truly astonishing.
The Spirit Stone alone amount to no less than 100,000!
There were all sorts of recovery pills, and many more that could enhance cultivation, such as the First-Tier Yellow Sprout Pill and the Azure Spike Pill, numbering in the thousands.
Needless to say, the number of Cultivation Method on Jade Slip was so large that Lu Li had to scan them with his Divine Sense for a long time before he could roughly determine their quantity.
"Huff... huff huff..."
Looking at everything before him, Lu Li's breathing quickened.
To be honest, he has never had much wealth since he started cultivating.
After all, he was the one who supported almost all the cultivation research in the entire Great Xia.
Although the research results also benefited him.
But researching this stuff is the most expensive thing to do.
In recent years, the seven workshops have not even dared to operate at full capacity.
They wished they could split the Spirit Stone into eight parts for use, and every use of a Spirit Stone required approval and allocation.
Moreover, Lu Li also needs to maintain his own cultivation.
Even if he occasionally managed to earn Spirit Stone by selling pills and magic armor over the years, they would quickly be gone.
To be honest, he's really a poor man who's suddenly become rich.
I don't know how to spend it.
"So many... so many... so rich!"
"It's here!"
"So much supplies, and that's only one-fifth?!"
"How much must the Nether Toad possess?!"
Lu Li swallowed hard, overwhelmed with immense joy.
He never imagined that Azure Pool's treasury was so abundant.
It's unclear whether it's due to the recent drastic changes or the repeated heavy blows suffered by the sect.
This almost made Lu Li forget that the original Azure Pool was a sect that had been developing for over a thousand years.
Over a thousand years, the wealth it contains is undoubtedly astonishing!
There was no time to think, not even time to be happy.
Lu Li quickly put away the Storage Bag and stepped out of the cave abode.
When it reappeared, its form was already in a layer of dark clouds above the sky.
According to Nether Toad's confession, this dark cloud was actually its natal demonic weapon.
It is a true fourth-tier Law Treasure.
It has been practicing its faith here for many years.
The Nascent Soul Divine Sense is extremely sharp.
Even though Nether Toad was in seclusion healing her injuries, she still sensed Lu Li's presence.
He opened his eyes in surprise, activated his magical Law Artifact, dispersed the dark clouds, and revealed his body.
The enormous, dark green demonic body stood before Lu Li, as imposing as a mountain.
The Nether Toad bared its large teeth at Lu Li, its face beaming with delight.
"Owner!"
"Hmm... how are your injuries?"
Lu Li asked Nether Toad somewhat awkwardly.
He didn't alter his memories within his Divine Soul; his relationship with Nether Toad could only be an act.
Fortunately, in Nether Toad's memory, Lu Li was someone who was not good at expressing his emotions.
Therefore, it doesn't feel strange.
He responded immediately.
"This is not good, Master. Even with the help of medicine, it will probably take at least three to five hundred years to recover to about 70-80% of my injuries."
"Right now, I can only unleash about 30% of my peak strength."
The Nether Toad's voice sounded somewhat dejected.
The ruined mansion will be opened in a few decades at most.
Given its current condition, it will be very difficult for it to survive.
Even though it believed its owner would help it, the time was too short, and it lacked confidence...
"Three to five hundred years, is that a long time..."
Lu Li frowned slightly; this was somewhat tricky.
The Nether Toad's Nascent Soul combat power is extremely important to him and the Great Xia at present.
Especially during subsequent developments and the start of the Prefecture-Breaking War.
We must find a way to help Nether Toad recover from her injuries as quickly as possible.
Even if I can only unleash 70% of my combat power, that would be fine.
As if sensing Lu Li's worry, Nether Toad blinked.
"Master, you don't need to worry about me too much. I will focus on recovering from my injuries."
"With the Prefecture-Breaking War drawing ever closer, the lords of other Blessed Land will no longer easily cause trouble."
"Besides, the Demon Manor has now focused its attention on those few humans who entered the country, so we should be relatively safe for now."
Even if we change the Azure Pool Blessed Land into the Litian Blessed Land, no demon will care about us.
Upon hearing Nether Toad's words, Lu Li expressed his agreement.
A female cultivator named Zong Qing, accompanied by two Void Return, is likely to cause quite a stir within the Demon Manor.
This is indeed a good time for them right now.
Make the most of this golden period of development before the Prefecture-Breaking War; anything is possible.
Of course, what gives Lu Li the most confidence is...
"Resources! So many resources! This will definitely allow cultivation research in Great Xia to develop rapidly."
"Reaching a terrifying state!"
Remembering his purpose, Lu Li looked at Nether Toad.
"Ahem... that Nether Toad?"
Do you still have some of the original Azure Pool stock on hand?
"Yes, at this critical juncture, both the nation and I need to reallocate these resources."
Lu Li's voice reached Nether Toad's ears.
Its initially joyful expression gradually turned into a resolute one.
It did not hesitate, it did not refuse, and it did not say anything more.
He resolutely spat out several Storage Bag from his mouth, then slowly raised his numb and trembling arm.
He gave Lu Li a solemn salute.
"I... will obey the country's arrangements!"
