Longevity begins with Gu refining

Late at night, Chen Qing sat on the throne, listening to the discussions of Xuan Mang, Su Yi, Li Changqing, Qi Tianfeng, and Ting Yun.

Xuan Mang said: "The Xuanguan Army under our command is the best among all other countries. If we distribute the salary, it will be an extremely huge number!"

"Even if each person only receives five spirit beads a month, then nearly [-] spirit beads need to be distributed a month!"

“This is only a month’s worth!”

"Now the military has a full 200 people, and more than [-] civilian officials. They are not engaged in production, and there is no output."

"There are only more than 400 monks in the production department. It is simply impossible to rely on these 400 people to support nearly 4000 people!"

"The financial resources required for this are astronomical!"

"Also, there are many spiritual Gus of the attack and combat system, but there are not many spiritual Gus of the production system. If there are production system spiritual Gus, then this situation may be able to be alleviated."

Su Yi frowned and asked: "Master Zuo, how many people can we support with the elixir we produce now?"

Li Changqing took out the account book, "Now there are nearly 410 production monks under his command, including 520 and [-] people in the Xuan Guan realm and [-] and [-] in the foundation level."

"These are all production-type Xuan Guan realms cultivated by tapping into the potential of the Death Realm when the King was still in the Death Realm before."

"After that, there will be fewer and fewer. Even if Wen Guo can stably cultivate a few production-type Xuanguan realms every year, it will still be a drop in the bucket."

"And we have a serious shortage of land, cave heaven and blessed land."

"With our current output, at most we can stably support about a thousand Xuanguan realms."

Chen Qing asked in confusion: "Then how did you sustain yourself in the past years?"

Su Yi said: "In the previous years, the salary payment was less than that of other countries. Because we are very likely to obtain the territory of the Kingdom of Water, the soldiers can afford to wait, so there are not many complaints."

"If we spread the news that we won't be entrusted, I'm afraid it will weaken the morale of the army."

"Moreover, after decades of war in the Death Realm, we finally won and obtained a large amount of spiritual Gu reserves."

"In these years, I have been relying on selling spiritual Gu to maintain the government."

Chen Qing also discovered the difficulty of the matter, "Is this so?"

After listening to Yun for a while, he understood what Chen Qing was thinking.

What Chen Qing wants is not to be similar to the models of other great religions or countries.

Other great religions relied on enfeoffing land, and then many tribes and clans supported the royal family.

This is a system that is only in but not out.

When employees are needed, they can be transferred from many ministries. The ministries will not be dissatisfied because this can bring the relationship between the ministries and the royal family closer.

When disputes arise in the future, the royal family will act out of sympathy.

But Chen Qing's way of thinking is completely different. He doesn't want to enfeoff at all, but wants a self-contained country.

This is a system of ins and outs.

Since you want people to do things, you need to give them salaries so that they can see a glimmer of hope of being promoted to the Heavenly Realm.

In fact, you don't need to worry too much in the Xuan Guan realm. There are still a lot of production system foundations, which can be fully supported.

The biggest question now is how these nearly [-] Xuan Guan realms can support such a huge salary payment.

Chen Qing rubbed his head and finally understood the problem.

It’s not that other royal families don’t want centralization of power, it’s that centralization requires too much financial resources.

In the past, because the realm of death was an extremely chaotic place, monks from the production department basically experienced death but no life when they entered it. The profound entrance realm of the production department was extremely cherished.

It was impossible for the various countries to support many Xuan Guan realms, so they had no choice but to enfeoff them.

Now that Chen Qing has taken control of the Realm of Death, he has ensured the safety and practice needs of production monks after entering the Realm of Death, and alleviated great pressure.

But it's just a relief.

Take Wen Guo, which has the most monks in the production department, as an example. There are only about [-] monks in the production department.

So the biggest problem now is that too many embryos are killed in the Xuan Guan realm, but in fact there is no contradiction of never-ending war.

The embryo killers have nowhere to use their strengths and earn spiritual stones.

The current Wen Kingdom is doing relatively well. Everyone knows that the land of the Water Kingdom will most likely be given to Wen Kingdom by God Miao.

This time the Kingdom of Water will be eliminated, it must be the Kingdom of Wen that sends troops. The killers are secretly accumulating strength and training, waiting for a battle to destroy the country.

Chen Qingdao: "Now there are still nearly ten years before the attack on the Kingdom of Water, the number of people entering the Dead Realm will be adjusted, and it will be fully inclined to the monks of the production department."

"In addition, let the civil servants turn to the production system and the contract production system."

"This time, the civil servants who are transferred to the production department will be granted a quota for their family's descendants to enter the academy."

"And turn to the profound entrance environment where Gu worms turn into butterflies in the production department, and open the twelve volumes of the Gu book of the Ling Gu chapter for his academy disciples to practice."

"We will train alchemists with all our strength and refine a large amount of elixirs. Apart from what we need ourselves, we will use some of them and sell them to the world at a high price in exchange for spiritual stones and elixirs."

"Elixirs used to advance from the Profound Pass Realm to the Tongtian Realm are not allowed to be sold outside."

"In addition, the salaries of high-ranking officials in the court and officials who can participate in court meetings will be set as elixirs, and elixirs for practicing in the Xuanguan realm will be distributed as emoluments."

"The specific quantity will be distributed at the rate of one Tongtian Realm per hundred years."

"In other words, after becoming an official who can participate in court meetings, and serving for a hundred years, you can become a Tongtian realm."

"Let everyone see the hope of becoming a Tongtian realm."

"This is the difference between us and other countries."

"In other countries, the Xuan Guan realm is almost the end of practice in other countries. This is not the case for us. We let everyone see the hope of becoming the Heavenly Realm."

"In addition, an inspection department will be established to investigate whether various officials have committed crimes."

"Well, Xuan Cuo will temporarily take charge of the Inspection Department to inspect Wen Guo."

After Chen Qing finished speaking, he stood up and said: "I don't believe that Wen Guo, who is in charge of the Death Realm, controls the Ghost Face Realm to be promoted to the Profound Pass Realm, and uses pills to control the Profound Pass Realm to be promoted to the Tongtian Realm, can't centralize power!"

"Let's try it out for a while, and we'll figure out what goes wrong one by one."

"It doesn't matter if we make mistakes, we still have enough time to correct them."

"You guys discuss it, decide on a detailed charter, and write it out for me to see."

After saying this, Chen Qing left his throne and returned to the harem, sitting in the pavilion, full of melancholy.

In the lotus pond, red and white carps were swimming under the lotus leaves. "Fishermen, fishermen, it is much more difficult to govern the world now than it was back then."

In the side hall of the palace, several important ministers discussed it for several days, and finally the regulations were finalized.

After the promulgation of the imperial edict, the production department was overjoyed at the establishment of the foundation, and worked harder to accumulate enough meritorious service to get a place to enter the realm of death.

Now the ministers who are able to participate in the court meeting are also very happy. Since then, they have started to receive the salaries and can start to make steady progress towards the sky-reaching realm.

However, the foundation-building monks of the fighting method system are having a hard time, as the number of places to become a Xuan Guan realm has dropped sharply.

Therefore, many fighting magic system foundation building began to turn to the production system. Nowadays, there are a large number of Gu books. It is not too difficult to change the major, but it still costs a lot.

Fortunately, only the foundation-building monks had complaints, and the Xuanguan-level monks did not object. Instead, they strongly supported these decrees.

The cultivators in the Profound Entrance Realm hope to see more Profound Entrance Realm cultivators in the production department, so that they can support them to continue their practice.

More people in the Xuanguan realm began to actively seek positions as courtiers in the hope that they could receive elixirs and become Tongtian realm.

Chen Dan started to be so busy that he couldn't keep his feet on the ground. Before, he only needed to refine the elixir needed for Chen Qing and other high-ranking officials to practice, but now the scope has been expanded and the elixir needs to be supplied.Fortunately, I could recruit people in the Xuan Guan realm where I was a civil servant, which barely relieved some of the pressure.

At this moment, the Wang Zhao was promulgated, because of Chen Qing's unparalleled prestige, he did not encounter much backlash.

Chen Qing watched these changes, took the Tongtian Pill and practiced for a while, then flew to the homecoming number in King Wen's palace, waved his sleeves, and came to the world of death again.

Falling on the edge of the Dead Sea, Chen Qing wrote with cinnabar:

[Go explore the ruins of the Spirit King today. 】

He lit it with the fire of spiritual intelligence and put it into the tortoise shell. Chen Qing took out four copper coins and threw them into it, and made a fortune.

"Damn!"

"With my current strength, I am no match for the ordinary Tongtian realm. Exploring the ruins of the Spirit King, or the ruins in the realm of death, is actually very dangerous!"

"No wonder it was able to attract six ghosts and gods three times. What a wonderful era it was!"

"Strong people like me must emerge in endlessly!"

"Fortunately, there is still some spiritual fire left in the storage. I'll wait for two days and come back to do the divination."

Two days later, Chen Qing came to divination again, "It's fierce!"

Something has changed, but not much.

This shows that the formation outside the Lingwang ruins is changing.

What Chen Qing needs is to figure out the weakest state of this formation.

At that time, he entered the ruins of the Spirit King, consulted the classics in it, searched for spirit Gu, and explored the secret of the Spirit Cult's ability to gather spirits.

In order to achieve the effect that one's own territory is full of spiritual soil.

Chen Qing wrote down the days of his calculations and came to calculate them every two days.

After spending ten rays of spiritual fire stored in his memory, I could barely discern a pattern.

"It seems that the danger is minimal at the end of each month and the beginning of the month."

"Wait until you save ten rays of spiritual fire and try again."

During the waiting period, Chen Qing did not forget to enter Li Shang's dream to learn about the situation in the death realm.

Unlike when Chen Qing entered the world of death from the human world, Chen Qing entered the world of death from the human world, and the world was full of rebel flags.

This time he left the realm of death, it was peaceful and there was no rebellion.

Li Shang said: "Master, it may be because of Senior Brother Qi Wang."

Chen Qing also thought of this, "King Qi himself has the King Gu Chaos Pisces. This is something everyone knows."

"It seems that the evil cultivators are still afraid of King Qi's existence and do not dare to act rashly. They want to wait for King Qi to leave the realm of death before they can counterattack the realm of death."

"If I had known this, I should have left Yan Lie behind. His King Gu has not yet been known to the world."

"But it's okay, without King Gu, it's still a test for you. Such a test can be regarded as a real test."

"I will ask King Qi to leave the realm of death and reappear in the human world soon. You should be ready to fight."

Li Shang cupped his hands and said, "Master, can you summon Senior Brother Qi Wang away after Ye Chen has completed his sword challenge to the world?"

Chen Qing thought for a moment and said: "Without Wang Gu to suppress the world of death, it will not be safe after all."

"You should let Ye Chen complete the sword crowning the world as soon as possible. Only then will he be more confident that his light Gu will be promoted to the king level."

Three years passed in the blink of an eye, and Chen Qing went through a catastrophe out of boredom, making his physical body even more powerful.

The cultivation base has also come to the late stage of the Xuanguan state, and the mana in his body is more vigorous.

After surviving the catastrophe in public and announcing to the world that he is in the world, Chen Qing returned to King Wen's palace, called Xuanmang, and concealed his identity and began to rush to Yeguo overnight.

Yeguo has a close relationship with Haoran Temple, so Chen Qing chose Yeguo for this meeting with Ji Ru.

He and Ji Ru wanted to gather the power of the Void River and go to the Gate of Taixu again to help King Qi's light Gu advance to the rank of king.

One month later, Chen Qing was walking on the streets of Yeguo wearing a bamboo hat, braved the light rain, and walked into an inn.

The practitioners around him seemed to have not seen Chen Qing and were drinking alone.

Chen Qing went straight upstairs to the Tianzihao room on the third floor and knocked on the door.

The door opened, Ji Ru was wearing a veil, "Whose young master, what's going on?"

Chen Qing chuckled and said, "Chen Qing, a young student, please invite me to go boating on the lake with you."

Ji Ru said: "You came so far just to go boating on the lake?"

Chen Qing said: "I found someone."

Ji Ru reached out and sealed Chen Qing's mouth, "Let's talk while we walk."

The two were walking on the road, Ji Ru opened the umbrella, and walked through the street holding an umbrella together, Chen Qing said: "King Qi himself possesses King Gu, and it is very suitable for boxing practice."

"In the realm of death, one has also achieved the master realm."

"I'm going to let him inherit the power of Taixu, Black Sun. What do you think?"

Ji Ru said: "Let's go and see what kind of child he is first."

Chen Qing nodded and came to the lake. With a wave of his hand, the Homecoming appeared and the two of them flew onto the boat.

Chen Qing waved his hand again, and he had already reached the realm of death.

Amidst the flying white snow, Homecoming flew over the snow-capped mountains and landed on the top of the snow-capped mountains.

King Qi was slightly surprised when he saw Ji Ru, "Princess Jin'an?"

Among the many heroes in the dead world, Ji Ru was the last one to enter the game, but he was also famous. He had a great reputation and high prestige in Dayun. King Qi had seen Ji Ru's portrait.

Chen Qing hesitated for a moment, "Call me Master Aunt."

King Qi quickly saluted and said calmly: "Sister-in-law!"

Ji Ru looked at King Qi and said, "He is quite stable."

"I heard that you started to govern the country when you were 12 years old, but you managed the country of Qi pretty well?"

King Qi said: "Master's teachings are all good, I just imitate him."

Ji Ru tested King Qi's skills and said, "You are indeed at the Grandmaster level. With this talent, I can almost catch up with you and Ji Dang."

"He is very likely to become a saint."

Chen Qing asked: "How did you see this?"

Ji Ru said: "When you and Ji Dang were fighting for the king, you were holding a breath in your chest, and finally achieved the grandmaster realm with this strong will."

"He is not the case. He relies entirely on talent. In terms of talent alone, he might really be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Ji Dang."

"Thanks to you, it would have been absolutely impossible for anyone else to have allowed him to achieve the master level at this age."

"However, his current Grandmaster level is not stable enough, and he still lacks a life-and-death battle."

"Fortunately, on your side in Nanli, war will break out in the Kingdom of Water soon."

Ji Ru stretched out her hand to call out the purple void river, "Let's go, let's go to the temple again!" (End of this chapter)
