However, to Song Zhong, the Ancient Cold Realm was a paradise. Firstly, this place was remote and the environment was harsh. No one occupied it, leaving him with a lot of room to develop. Secondly, because no one dared to come here, there were still a large amount of heavenly materials and earthly treasures stored here. It was just nice for Song Zhong to build his own base of operations.
Finally, Song Zhong, who owned a top grade flying boat, could be considered to be one of the top experts in the cultivation world. Ordinary people and even sects could not afford to offend him. Even the two great sects, who were high and mighty in the past, had no choice but to withdraw their arrest warrants and put on a conciliatory attitude. Under such circumstances, he realized that his identity had changed, and he also had the confidence to build his own foundation.
The early stages of the construction of the Ice Spirit City could be said to be smooth sailing. First, they carefully selected a place with the densest spirit energy, which was where the two super dragon veins intersected.
Next was to build the castle. Without anyone disturbing him, SongZhong made use of the cold Qi of the Ice Fiend Divine Boat as well as the Ice Water Spirit's ability to control water flow, easily freezing the buildings and walls around him.
Although they were all using the local water, when they were frozen, they were indeed affected by the Cold Fiend Astral Wind. Furthermore, the buildings were all reinforced with arrays, so the buildings in the city were all abnormally sturdy, not the least bit inferior to the buildings in the headquarters of the big sects.
Because the Frost Water Spirit and the Cold Ice Fiend Divine Boat both had powerful strength, although the entire project was relatively large, it did not take too much time to build it.
After that, Song Zhong replenished the various shops in the city with the various materials in his hands, and then sent his subordinate Flower Demon to be the shopkeeper, in charge of the transactions and management.
Finally, Song Zhong opened the teleportation array and secretly returned to the Xuantian Branch. He saw Shuijin, Great Shadow, Han Ling Feng, SiYu and the others who he had not seen for a long time.
Of course, everyone was very excited to meet again after a long time, to the point that everyone slept together that night. Other than Shuijin, who couldn't lose her virginity, the rest of the girls were all eaten by Song Zhong, the big bad wolf.
After returning, Song Zhong found out that due to his special identity and the great kindness he had shown the Shui Family, under Shui Mengmeng's care, none of the women were put in a difficult position. He didn't even take back the Jade Tree Palace, allowing them to continue living there.
Furthermore, the cultivators in the sect would occasionally guide them in their cultivation, allowing them to benefit greatly from their years of bitter cultivation.
Hearing this news, Song Zhong couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. What he was most worried about was his women being wronged. Now that he found out that they were being taken care of so well, he couldn't help but feel a wave of gratitude towards Shui Menglong. He secretly decided that if there was a chance, he would definitely exchange it for this favor.
Then, Song Zhong stayed here for a while. Of course, he didn't appear brazenly. Instead, he secretly fooled around with the women for a while without alerting anyone else.
In fact, Song Zhong knew that the Jade Tree Palace was definitely under surveillance. They already knew that he was here. However, his identity was a little sensitive now, so they didn't know how to treat him. Especially since Shui Mengmeng was only a Void Refinement Realm cultivator, she didn't have the qualifications to know the plans of the higher-ups. Therefore, without knowing the intentions of the higher-ups, she wasn't willing to meet Song Zhong. Otherwise, it would be awkward for everyone. SongZhong saw through this point and purposely did not reveal himself.
While staying in the Mystical Sky Branch, apart from spending time with a few of his close female friends, SongZhong did not forget about his mission, which was to attract guests for his castle.
Song Zhong didn't want to directly contact his former trading partners, because he was now enemies with the Thousands Desire Sect and the Dark Yin Sect. It was hard to guarantee that they wouldn't have bad intentions. Song Zhong wasn't afraid of anyone, but if a Mahayana Realm master suddenly attacked him, Song Zhong, who didn't have time to take out the Icy Fiend Divine Boat, might be in trouble.
Therefore, in order to avoid this kind of thing, Song Zhong was determined not to meet with outsiders easily. Thus, he made use of ShuiJing and the other girls to secretly spread the news of the existence of the Ice Spirit City as well as the coordinates of the spatial zone.
Due to the efforts of his confidantes, the trade fair of the Jade Tree Palace was still being held, so they kept in touch with many cultivators. Therefore, it was very easy to secretly spread the news. It was done easily.
When those guys heard that there was such a treasure land with almost all kinds of high-level materials, they were naturally very curious. Therefore, they boldly took a trip and naturally returned with a full harvest. Therefore, they told this good news to their relatives and friends, and one person spread it to ten, ten to a hundred, and the name of Ice Spirit City spread like wildfire. Then, it became more and more popular. In the end, after a short 30 years of development, it expanded dozens of times. It became the favorite trading place of small and medium-sized sects and itinerant cultivators.
In fact, although the speed of development of Ice Spirit City seemed to be a little unbelievable, it was actually reasonable. Song Zhong was rich to begin with, and later, he robbed so many things from the First Sect. In addition, there were abundant local specialties. With such a strong capital, it was difficult for him not to develop!
Of course, in the process of development, there would inevitably be some accidents. For example, there were some devil cultivators who saw how SongZhong was earning so much money every day, and how the guards here were only some weak flower demons. Thus, they became greedy and wanted to take over this place for themselves.
Song Zhong naturally wouldn't be polite to these guys, and he directly sent nine beauties to kill them. Nine Spatial Tempering stage Demonic Desire Witches could even beat back a Body Integration cultivator, so those weaker ones were naturally nothing.
Of course, if they were too difficult to deal with, then wasn't there still the Icy Water Spirit? Although the Icy Water Spirit had only cultivated for a short time and couldn't fully display her strength, she still had a strong foundation. The terrifying spiritual qi in the Ten Thousand Mile Profound Ice Sea was something that even Great Ascension stage experts couldn't compare to. Therefore, in terms of fighting strength, although she couldn't beat Great Ascension stage experts with immortal items, bullying Body Integration cultivators wasn't much of a problem. Even Great Ascension stage experts couldn't beat her without immortal items.
However, most Great Ascension stage cultivators were people who valued their status and were extremely careful. Before they knew the specific situation, they wouldn't make a move.
So Song Zhong had only been probed by two or three Great Ascension stage cultivators. He didn't personally appear, and instead asked the Shui family's old ancestor, Shui Wuhen, to appear.
The reason Song Zhong was able to invite Shui Wuhen was because he had already established a relationship with the Xuantian Dao Sect through her mediation.
Song Zhong's official status was the disciple of the Lightning Daoist. However, he still retained his status as a disciple of the Xuantian Dao Sect. After all, both his parents were disciples, and as a son, he couldn't go against his parents' wishes. However, Song Zhong had taken another master, so he only retained his status as a disciple in name. He was no longer an official disciple.
Although he was only a disciple in name, he still maintained a minimum connection with the Xuantian Dao Sect. And this connection brought huge benefits to both sides.
After Song Zhong's place had become famous, the Xuantian Dao Sect had obtained an eighth of it to do their own business. As for the other sects and individuals, they had only been able to obtain a single storefront. Just this alone allowed the Xuantian Dao Sect to make a fortune.
As for Song Zhong, he hadn't lost out either. That was because he had obtained the Xuantian Dao Sect's protection. When a Grand Ascension cultivator or a super sect appeared to threaten this place, the Xuantian Dao Sect would stand out and block the wind and rain for him.
On the surface, it seemed that Song Zhong was strong enough and didn't need this kind of protection. But in reality, that wasn't the case. After all, Song Zhong was just one person, while he had many enemies. Whether it was the Thousands Desire Sect or the Profound Yin Sect, they all wanted to skin him alive. If it weren't for the Xuantian Dao Sect's protection, perhaps they really would join hands to exterminate Song Zhong. After all, if they really went all-out, they could use a few Loose Immortals to gain more karma. They could take advantage of the fact that there weren't too many outsiders to kill Song Zhong. At that time, perhaps Song Zhong wouldn't even be able to escape!
However, with the Xuantian Dao Sect's protection, things were different. They also had Loose Immortals, and fighting Loose Immortals wouldn't increase the karma between them. If they had attacked Song Zhong, there would have been no need for the Xuantian Dao Sect to go all out. All they needed to do was send Loose Immortals to break through space and help Song Zhong escape. In that case, there was no need to worry about the rest. Song Zhong could use the top-grade flying ship to wipe out all their branches.
It was under such circumstances that SongZhong was able to develop himself here for over 30 years without any disturbances. Although the Profound Yin Sect and the Thousands Desire Sect guessed that the master of Ice Spirit City was Song Zhong, they were unable to investigate further due to the interference of the Xuantian Dao Sect. They also didn't dare to rashly attack. They could only gloomily watch as Song Zhong quietly developed and cultivated.
After thirty years of development, Song Zhong could now be said to have a powerful army. He also had a large number of experts under him.
The number one expert under Song Zhong was none other than the Icy Water Spirit. Her realm wasn't particularly high, only around the Spirit Severing stage. However, with her powerful body, she possessed extremely terrifying combat strength. She could definitely fight against Mahayana cultivators without immortal items.
Next were the nine Demonic Desire Witches. Because they had the undying and indestructible Formless Devil Body, they were especially fierce in battle. They used all their moves, and ordinary Void Refinement cultivators wouldn't be able to defeat them.
After that, it would be Lianbai and Lianqing. Lian Bai was formed from the Soul Devouring Ghost Eye Lotus. He liked to absorb souls and could rely on this move to greatly increase his strength.
