Wang Daoyuan brought Zhou Luan back to the Jade Spring Peak. With Zhou Luan's intelligence agency there, the changes in Zhao couldn't be hidden from him.
Whether it was at Wucheng Pass or the hinterland of Zhao, there were no battles between Golden Core cultivators.
The three major sects were still hiding like turtles, but the long-legged prince's tactics had changed.
They no longer attacked the heavily guarded markets and important industries, but instead intercepted the three major sects' transport ships.
The markets at the rear weren't afraid, as they had enough resources, so there wouldn't be any problems in the short term. However, the frontlines at Wucheng Pass were having a hard time.
A war at the national level consumed a lot of resources.
Once there was a problem with the supplies at the rear, the three major sects wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
Wang Daoyuan wasn't too worried, as the three major sects' hidden strength hadn't been exposed yet.
It was still unknown who would emerge victorious.
Half a year later, good news came from the family. The Twelfth Uncle's cultivation had reached the peak of the Violet Palace Realm.
Wang Daoyuan was overjoyed to hear the news.
He hadn't wasted his resources for so many years. Now that his cultivation had reached the peak of the Violet Palace Realm, all that was left was to comprehend the laws.
The Twelfth Uncle's talent was needless to say. It wouldn't be long before the Wang family had another Golden Core cultivator.
He didn't have a special constitution, so he would only have to face nine Golden Core Heavenly Tribulations.
The Wang family had no difficulty dealing with nine Golden Core Heavenly Tribulations with their grade four magic artifacts.
As long as he could form the embryonic form of the Golden Core, he wouldn't have to worry about the tribulation.
As for forming the embryonic form of the Golden Core, the Twelfth Uncle had an eight-inch and seven-part water spirit root.
Although it wasn't a hundred percent success rate like the heavenly spirit root, the success rate should still be eighty to ninety percent.
As long as he could comprehend the power of the laws, it wouldn't be a big deal even if he failed to form the Golden Core.
Failing to form the Golden Core didn't cause too much damage to the body. With the Azure Dragon Pearl providing a huge amount of vitality, he could try again in a few years.
Wang Daoyuan had already arranged the duties of Twelfth Uncle after he formed his Azoth Core. He would replace Fifth Granduncle as the Head Steward of the Administrator's Mansion and manage the daily affairs of the Mansion.
With the Twelfth Uncle in charge of the Administrator's Mansion, Fifth Uncle could also put down his burden and focus all his energy on improving his cultivation.
Right now, he wasn't too far away from the late-stage Zifu Realm, and he was only a little over three hundred years old.
With sufficient resources, there was hope for him to form his Gold Core within thirty years.
Then there were the Third Brother Wang Daochang, the Twenty-Seventh Brother Wang Daojian, and Wang Mingshan.
The three of them had sufficient Purple Rhythm Pills and Tier 3 Hidden Cloud Tea.
Below him was his grandnephew, Wang Dezhao, who was already at the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm and was not far from the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
He was a cultivator with two Spirit Roots, and his main Spirit Root was the eight-and-a-half-inch Fire Spirit Root. Wang Daoyuan had even given him part of the cultivation technique that True Lord Hundred Spirits had left behind.
Given his talent, cultivation technique, and sufficient resources, it wasn't strange for the phenomenon of a divine beast to appear when he was establishing his Violet Palace Realm.
Moreover, this child was rather sensible. He had offered up the crucial Heart Sutra of Clouds and Rain, so he had to be nurtured properly no matter what.
Unfortunately, the Gui Water Hell Flame could burn one's Divine Sense and soul, so it wasn't suitable for comprehending the water-type laws.
Fortunately, there was the dragonfish corpse. The dragonfish was similar to the Black Dragon, so it was very helpful for comprehending the water-type laws.
In the following days, the Twelfth Uncle went into seclusion at the dragonfish corpse in the secret treasure vault.
If there were any questions, Wang Daoyuan could use his Divine Sense to explain to him without leaving the cave abode's door.
When Wang Daoyuan was comprehending the laws back then, he had Zhou Luan's guidance and divine flames as a reference.
In just half a year, he had comprehended the fire laws.
The Twelfth Uncle had the dragonfish's pseudo-dragon ball, and Wang Daoyuan, a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, had explained everything. Therefore, he was treated better than Wang Daoyuan back then.
A year later, the Twelfth Uncle lived up to everyone's expectations and successfully comprehended the water-type laws.
During this year, the battles in various parts of the Zhao Kingdom were very boring.
The three major sects were determined to be cowards. Apart from the resources sent to Wucheng Pass, which were escorted by many flying warships.
The other industries that were besieged had to rely on themselves to withstand the attacks.
The three major sects' mountain gates and various industries were separated and could only rely on the resources in their inventory to hold on.
The long-legged prince's forces weren't much better. Although they occupied many industries, they didn't have the manpower to develop them.
When the three major sects gave up these industries, they took everything they could and destroyed everything they couldn't.
It would take at least ten years to recover these industries.
The long-legged prince didn't have the manpower or the time to recover the industries.
Their resources were mainly transported from Linhai Prefecture.
This route required them to cross the Sky Chop Mountain Range, so they suffered great losses.
According to Zhou Luan's information, the Song Kingdom wasn't doing well either.
All the experts in the kingdom had been pulled to Wucheng Pass, and the Song Kingdom had become a paradise for itinerant cultivators.
They often attacked various industries, and the neighboring countries often came to take advantage of them. The Song Kingdom's resources were basically from their inventory.
At this point in the war, both sides were very cautious. It was a competition of resources.
A large number of itinerant cultivators had entered South Yan County, so there were naturally many who caused trouble.
However, the itinerant cultivators who caused trouble were all killed by Wang Daoyuan's Soul Chasing Bees.
After killing the chickens to warn the monkeys, the itinerant cultivators became very obedient.
South Yan County was peaceful, and Wang Daoyuan had enough energy to protect the Twelfth Uncle.
After the Twelfth Uncle comprehended the water-attributed laws, he walked out of the underground treasury and returned to his cave abode.
Wang Daoyuan prepared nine inferior-grade Tier 4 defensive Dharma artifacts and some healing pills.
When Xiao Chen arrived at the Twelfth Uncle's cave abode, he handed the items to him and asked, "Twelfth Uncle, how are your preparations?
When forming the core, Qi and blood are extremely important. They have to meet the requirements. "
The Twelfth Uncle took the items and waved his hand. "Don't worry. Although I'm not as talented as you, I'm still a genius.
I've consumed a huge amount of resources over the years, and if I still can't meet the requirements for forming the core, then I'll be too useless. "
Wang Daoyuan smiled. "Alright then. First, let these Dharma artifacts recognize you as their master. Later, you can use them to withstand the Heavenly Tribulation. I'll take care of the rest."
The Twelfth Uncle nodded and did not say anything else.
Then, Wang Daoyuan instructed the Third Brother to evacuate the family.
The Wang Family only had one Tier 4 spirit vein, Jade Spring Peak. Naturally, the core formation had to be done there.
As the main spirit mountain of the Wang Family, Jade Spring Peak had many cultivators and ordinary people living there.
Once the Twelfth Uncle succeeded in forming the core, he would definitely trigger the Heavenly Tribulation.
No living creatures could be left in the area covered by the Heavenly Tribulation. The family members and spirit beasts were temporarily moved to Clear Sky Peak. The Clear River Carps in the Jade Dragon Spring were also moved to the Sleeping Bow Pond at the foot of the mountain.
The array formation was also affected and needed to be closed.
On the other hand, the array formation at the bottom of the Earth Fire Room was already more than thirty kilometers away from the Jade Dragon Spring, so it did not need to be closed for the time being.
After all the preparations were done, the Twelfth Uncle began to meditate and cultivate beside the Jade Dragon Spring.
A few days later, a spiritual aura wind started to appear on Jade Spring Peak. It gradually became stronger and turned into a spiritual aura vortex.
However, the grade of the Jade Spring Peak's spirit vein was rather high now and the spiritual aura was abundant. The spiritual aura vortex was only a hundred meters in size.
Wang Daoyuan also ordered the Administrator's Office to issue an order to kill anyone who came within 150 kilometers of the Jade Spring Peak.
Previously, he had already intimidated the group of loose cultivators by making an example out of them. Therefore, no one dared to come within 150 kilometers of the Jade Spring Peak.
Half a year later, a Golden Core projection with a diameter of six inches and eight centimeters appeared in the sky above the Twelfth Uncle.
Although it was inferior to Wang Daoyuan's nine-inch Golden Core and Zhou Luan's seven-inch Golden Core, it was already comparable to some cultivators with Heavenly Spirit Roots.
Once the Golden Core projection appeared, the Heavenly Tribulation was about to descend.
Soon, a dark cloud appeared directly above the Jade Dragon Spring.
The dark cloud quickly expanded and eventually grew to a diameter of 20 kilometers.
The Twelfth Uncle didn't have a special constitution and only had nine Core Formation Heavenly Tribulations. A tribulation cloud with a diameter of 20 kilometers was already not small.
The Heavenly Tribulation only covered a diameter of 10 kilometers, which was much smaller than expected. The Earth Fire Room wouldn't be affected.
