Although that was a good thought, unfortunately he couldn't take out any money from his bag.
They were both using Grade-4 Spiritual Weapons and Spiritual Armors, at most, they were close to Grade-5. However, Zong Shou calculated that the price was a full 10 times more expensive than the set provided by Kongqi Sect!
With Gantian Mountain's current income, it was tough to maintain one Blood Cloud Cavalry. Any more and they wouldn't be able to take it.
At this moment, they could only make do with what they had and let the Black Fox Iron Cavalry train in those support techniques.
Apart from the Black Fox Iron Cavalry, within the Avici Throne, there was a crossbow soldier training method known as the Big Dipper Crossbow Soldier which Zong Shou paid attention to.
The iron cavalry under the First Emperor was strong, but the First Emperor's cavalry was strong. However, what made Great Qin truly famous was its mountainous and ocean-like Infantry and Archers that crushed everything in their path.
The Big Dipper Crossbow Soldiers weren't that strong. Compared to the Blood Cloud Cavalry, their combat strength was 10 to 1. However, they were cheap and weren't much stronger than the standard armor of Gantian Mountain. What was important was the crossbows. If they had tens of millions of crossbows, then no matter how strong the Blood Cloud Cavalry was, they would be helpless.
With the current tax revenue, if they used up all their savings, they could easily build more than 2 towns in 3-5 months.
Qiu Wei and Zong Gang were already preparing. However, this would also take a lot of time.
At least this time, they wouldn't be able to make it to Huizhou Island.
He arranged everything properly. Zong Shou drove the Royal Demon God Shuttle, only bringing Kong Yao and Ruoshui towards Huizhou Island.
However, before they left, Zhao Yanran was annoyed by the noise of those monks and insisted on going with Zong Shou. Naturally, since this woman came, Jingyin wouldn't fall behind.
When he was bored, it wasn't bad to let her play the zither. Most importantly, the soul calming spiritual tune was beneficial to cultivation. Zong Shou also brought Xuan Yunlan along.
When it was time to depart, Zong Shou was speechless. This was one phoenix and five phoenixes. Inside the small cabin, it was filled with beautiful women.
Wasn't he being too overboard? That was where the Night Demon Clan went in and out. It was the most dangerous place. This was a battle, not a sightseeing trip!
However, when he thought about it, it would not be good to drive her away. A person like Zhao Yanran could not be treated as a simple woman. Zong Shou had no choice but to accept it.
The Royal Demon God Shuttle in his hand was said to be the first shuttle since the creation of the Cloud World. Although it lacked many parts, it was only a Grade Two Magical Treasure. However, the speed at which it pierced through the air was still not something that ordinary magical treasures of the same grade could compare to.
At this moment, Zong Shou, with his Grade-9 Spirit Master Realm, controlling this item was a totally different scene. In the sky, it turned into a ray of light that was invisible to the naked eye. It only took them about half a day to travel 16,000 miles.
Then, he didn't head directly to that place which was said to be extremely dangerous. Instead, he landed slightly and randomly sped around Huizhou Island. They either circled around the island or directly penetrated into the island and flew at high speed. Sometimes, he would stop for a while.
Zhao Yanran's brow rose up in confusion. She knew that the few Taishang envoys had been rushing him every day. It seemed like the situation here was really bad.
At this moment, Zong Shou actually had the mood to randomly walk around Huizhou Island.
"Legend had it that during the ancient times, Huizhou was filled with mountains and many famous sceneries. Moreover, there were many Zero Veins. Out of 100 sects in the world, 10% were here. Those words were true. If it wasn't for the earth veins breaking, there would be more than three Spiritual Houses and Shrines here … "
Zong Shou shook his head and was filled with emotions. In the future, Huizhou Island had the most Mind Stone Veins.
Although this place had many mountains and only 40% of it could be used for farming, it was a true treasure land. There were all sorts of spiritual materials and various Spiritual Gold Veins.
Out of the five continents and ten islands, this place was the richest. Even the Central Cloud Continent couldn't compare to it.
However, at this moment, it should be the most chaotic time on Huizhou Island.
Zong Shou thought back to those historical books. During this time, there didn't seem to be anything major happening on Huizhou Island.
It was peaceful until 10 years later when it became a battlefield where the various sects and factions fought for resources.
After the Spiritual Wave, less than 10% of the people here remained.
However, after experiencing the Yin Dragon Canyon matter, Zong Shou had some reservations about those books he read in the last life.
Even during that time, Gantian Mountain should have already fallen. Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect shouldn't have been wiped out and Lingyun should have been at his peak. Osamu Hara wouldn't have been badly injured when he just returned to the Cloud World. Yin Dragon Canyon should have only opened two months later.
All of these changes were different from before. Therefore, it was possible that the situation here had also changed a little.
"Weird! To be able to make that Taishang Yuancheng Emperor so anxious, it shouldn't be a small matter. Why didn't the history books record it? "
Zong Shou took in a deep breath, thinking about it for a long time. He could only confirm that Huizhou was really secluded. That battlefield was 200 miles away from Huizhou, above the Cloud Sea. Most of the things that happened there were unknown reasons.
Or maybe some people purposely wiped out this part of history to try to hide something.
Then, he thought back to Kong Yao. This future undefeatable army god was moved here a month later.
Two years later, when she returned to the Central Cloud Continent, she was directly promoted by two grades, skipping the Fleet Commander role and becoming a Primary Grade Two Commander. This was also the start of her legend of being invincible in the Central Cloud Continent.
Just as Zong Shou was deep in thought, Zhao Yanran asked impatiently, "Why are you randomly walking around here? Aren't you going to Lianyun Island?"
Lianyun Island was west of Huizhou Island. It was the place where the Night Demon Race appeared and tried to attack.
Zong Shou was jolted back to his senses. His lips curled up in a mocking manner, "As a general, one must know about geography. Even if he couldn't make use of it, he had to be clear about it. If I want to fight the Night Demon Race, I can't know nothing about the geography of this place, the distribution of the cities, and the changes in weather. "
Zhao Yanran's breathing instantly stopped. Thinking about Zong Shou's words, they did make sense, he was experienced and wise.
However, did Zong Shou have such low hopes for this Huizhou Island trip? Did he think that Lianyun Island wouldn't be able to block it and that the flames of war would spread to Huizhou Island?
Ruoshui woke up in a daze and when she heard that, she didn't think much about it. She blinked and exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't Ruler searching for the few mines that Daoling Vast Habitat handed over?"
Zong Shou's face flushed red as he stared at Ruoshui. Why was this little girl tearing down his words?
Zhao Xuan and Zhao Yue's gazes changed as well. Their faces were like they knew that Zong Shou would be like that.
Zong Shou's face was as thick as a city wall. He coughed awkwardly before returning to normal.
"What do you know? I am not neglecting private matters! "
These few mines were exchanged for with Xiaoxiang Zi's head. Naturally, they belonged to him and didn't belong to Renbo which was why it was a private matter.
He drove the Royal Demon God Shuttle and circled around a mountain range. Using his Spiritual Sense, he confirmed that there was a Mind Stone mine that was close to High Grade and there were no signs of mining. Only then was Zong Shou satisfied. He rose up and caused the shuttle to return to 30,000 feet in the air.
At this moment, Kong Yao suddenly pointed at a place outside the window and asked, "Where is that place?"
Zong Shou felt weird. During these few days, Kong Yao had been silent. She didn't participate in their conversations.
Now that she spoke, it was surprising.
Walking beside her, Zong Shou also looked out of the window and smiled.
Only to see that it was a really beautiful mountain. However, the light was really blurry, making it seem like a dream.
This place was a scenic spot in the future. He recognized it as Seven Cloud Mountain.
That was because this place was close to the ocean and was only 320 miles away. In the nearby sea of clouds, mirages would appear almost every month at the beginning of the month. The reflection of the light caused the entire mountain to be covered in Seven Colored Spiritual Light which was why it got its name.
"This mountain is called Seven Cloud, the scenery is really beautiful! If you are free in the future, you can go and play. "
He thought that Kong Yao was admiring the scenery here. Who knew that Kong Yao would shake her head, "I see that this mountain is dangerous and the key point is to rush in. If I were you, I would build a camp here and store resources to be prepared. "
After she said this, she looked at the mirage in the distance in deep thought.
It should have reflected a mirror-like lake.
This place was really eye-piercing and one couldn't look at it directly …
Zong Shou was speechless. So this person was the one who had been paying attention to the geography of Huizhou Island from start to finish.
Looking closely, it was indeed as Kong Yao had said, it was indeed dangerous. It was like a screen blocking this area. Apart from some places at the foot of the mountain, one couldn't find a foothold anywhere else. Nearby was the path towards the east plains of Huizhou Island.
Zong Shou squinted and then asked seriously, "Apart from that, are there any other places that we can use?"
Kong Yao was in deep thought. A moment later, she shook her head, "I know about the Night Demon Race situation. The only thing that could stop his attack was this mountain. If they occupy this place, then Huizhou Island will have no place to defend. "
The Night Demon Race had wings and couldn't fly for too long. However, those dangerous places that humans couldn't pass through were like a smooth path for them.
The mountains of Huizhou were like flat land. On the contrary, they, the natives of the Cloud World, couldn't use the geography to their advantage.
The only place they could defend was this Seven Cloud Mountain, as well as the surrounding mountain ranges.
They just needed to place enough strong bows and crossbows here. Even if the Night Demon Race could grow wings and fly, they couldn't fly over grain and resources.
"However, to defend this place, we need enough Cloud Ships to lock down the Cloud Ocean."
When he heard Kong Yao say this, Zong Shou felt his head hurt. That's right, if the Night Demon Race used ships to go around the island. Although this place was dangerous, it was also meaningless.
Now, he could only hope that the situation on Lianyun Island hadn't worsened to the extent that he had imagined. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
