Zhang Dongyun's expression changed slightly.
He estimated that every time the number changed, the interval was about one second.
If that was the case, then this number …
Countdown?
Zhang Dongyun's expression became serious.
What kind of countdown is this?
[The initial invincibility of the system is one year, which is 31536000 seconds.
When the City Lord is in the city, the countdown will automatically start.
When the City Lord is outside the city, the countdown will temporarily stop. When the City Lord enters the city again, the countdown will resume.]
Zhang Dongyun wanted to curse.
This has nothing to do with my original setting …
Suddenly, his eyes flashed as if he thought of something.
Fragment …
The Invincible City in front of him was the product of the combination of the core fragment of the Immortals and the Invincible City System.
A fragment meant that it was incomplete.
Is this because the System's invincibility has a time limit?
How can I extend the invincibility … Zhang Dongyun asked the System.
[Combining the remaining fragments of the Immortals can extend the invincibility.
If all fragments are collected and restored, there will be no time limit.]
After listening to the System's answer, Zhang Dongyun fell into deep thought.
Back then, the Immortals disintegrated and scattered.
The Evil Emperor Ming Tonghui obtained the core fragment.
At that time, the other people in the Immortals, both the enemy and our side, had their own gains.
It was just that the situation at that time was a mess, and Ming Tonghui was not sure of the whereabouts of each fragment.
However, some of the Twelve Yama siblings seemed to have gained something.
But now, everyone's whereabouts were unknown.
It was hard to say whether they were friends or foes …
Zhang Dongyun sighed slightly.
According to the Evil Emperor's memory, the incident at the Immortals was very suspicious.
The Twelve Yama siblings' visit to the Immortals was supposed to be a secret, but a large number of enemies came to besiege them.
At that time, the Evil Emperor Ming Tonghui sensed that there was something wrong with one person.
His tenth brother, "Celestial Wolf" Yang Li.
Unfortunately, the situation was chaotic at that time, and he could not capture Yang Li.
To make matters worse, there was more than one traitor. Otherwise, there would not have been such a terrible outcome.
Apart from Yang Li's flaws, it was difficult to tell who was loyal and who was traitor.
Just like the Evil Emperor Ming Tonghui, the rest of the Twelve Yama Kings went their separate ways. Most of them, including Yang Li, either changed their names or changed their identities.
Regardless of who was loyal and who was treacherous, finding them one by one was a problem.
Zhang Dongyun smiled bitterly.
Was it so difficult to be a shut-in City Lord?
If there was no solution to the time limit, then the most important thing now was to expand the city as much as possible.
Although it was difficult to find 10,000 people, this problem had to be solved first before other construction missions could be refreshed.
Where, then, am I to find so many men to fill my town?
Zhang Dongyun calculated the current geographical environment of Chang 'an.
The Dragon Ridge was deep in the mountains and forests, and there were few people there.
Other than a small number of mountain people, it was rare to see ordinary people. On the contrary, there were more cultivators who went into the mountains to search for treasures.
The White Cloud Abyss was a notoriously dangerous place in the Dragon's Ridge. It was also extremely barren and rarely produced natural treasures. Not to mention ordinary mortals, even cultivators stayed away from it.
Chang 'an City was located in Longling and Baiyun Abyss.
Barren hills and unruly rivers, it was really not optimistic!
Zhang Dongyun sighed in his heart.
Not to mention that it was difficult to leave their homeland, the people might not be willing to move here.
Even if they were willing to move, Chang 'an City was deep in the dense forests of the Dragon's Ridge, and the roads were a big problem.
Even if he could fool … no, attract the people to come here, their original ruler would definitely not be willing.
Far away from the city, far away from the mountains, Master Zhang could not directly snatch people away.
He could do whatever he wanted in the city, but if he went out of the city, it would be a different matter.
First, he would make a name for himself in the city, and then he would bluff outside the city. It was not a bad idea.
But there was no guarantee that he would not run into people like Senior Brother Cao who were not stingy.
Master Zhang still needed to improve his real cultivation strength.
This way, it would be easier to keep it a secret and make it difficult for others to guess the truth of Invincible City. It would also prevent enemies from surrounding the city and blocking the gate without a fight.
Although Master Zhang would not have to worry about survival and safety as long as he stayed in the city, wasn't that the same as being in prison?
Being willing to stay at home and being locked up by others were two different things.
Moreover, Zhang Dongyun was quite interested in cultivation in this fantasy world.
As a place for cultivation, this Invincible City's environment was quite excellent.
With the Invincible City System, although he could not directly improve his cultivation realm in Chang 'an City, he could mobilize rich Spirit Qi to help him cultivate.
The body he was in now was the Spirit Stone Jade Embryo that the Evil Emperor had treasured in the past, which was the essence of heaven and earth.
If he used it to practice martial arts, his innate constitution would be far better than that of ordinary people.
Among the various cultivation methods, martial arts cultivators' great strength belonged to themselves, and their Qi and blood were majestic, and ghosts and gods would be afraid of them.
Full of murderous intent and fierce combat, these were all advantages, but there were also some disadvantages when all the strength was condensed in the Qi and blood of the body.
For example, it was difficult to reincarnate and cultivate again.
The Evil Emperor had prepared the Spirit Stone Jade Embryo for reincarnation. On the one hand, his cultivation realm was high enough, and the Great Dao was united, and he had gradually begun to surpass the inherent barriers. On the other hand, he had benefited from the core fragment of the Immortals.
If Qin Mu wanted to improve his real realm as soon as possible, this was the most suitable path.
As for the secret manuals of divine arts, there were the Evil Emperor Sutra, which the Evil Emperor Ming Tonghui had relied on to run rampant in the past, as well as other secret manuals that he had collected and memorized.
With the help of the Evil Emperor's experiences and memories, the transmigrator Master Zhang didn't have to worry about his cultivation going astray.
At the same time, he could use the power of Invincible City to analyze the profound secret manuals, making them easy to understand in an instant.
In fact, he had even improved the foundation of what Evil Emperor had learned over the years.
However, he only had one year, and it was hard to say how much he could improve.
Right now, he needed to work on multiple fronts and speed up …
As he pondered, Zhang Dongyun appeared in front of Blood Shadow.
Smoke billowed from the blood-red figure's body, and he was already on the verge of death.
Seeing Zhang Dongyun, the old devil said with difficulty, "Your Majesty, please spare my life …"
Zhang Dongyun's expression was indifferent. "Compared to your disloyalty, I hate your stupidity even more."
"Your Majesty, please spare my life …" Blood Shadow hurriedly said, "This old servant didn't cultivate properly earlier and suffered Qi Deviation. I lost my mind for a moment, which was why I acted rudely. I didn't mean it, please spare my life, Your Majesty."
"There won't be a next time," Zhang Dongyun said indifferently.
As soon as he said that, the smoke on Blood Shadow's body disappeared.
"Thank you for your mercy, Your Majesty! Thank you for your mercy, Your Majesty! "Blood Shadow said repeatedly." This old servant will definitely be careful with his words and actions in the future and be loyal to Your Majesty. "
He turned into a streak of bloody light and flew back into the Blood Demon Ring on Zhang Dongyun's finger.
"Go patrol outside the city. If you see anyone approaching, leave their lives behind and bring them back to the city."
Zhang Dongyun took off the Blood Demon Ring and tossed it into the air.
The ring flashed with bloody light. "As Your Majesty commands, this old servant will go right away."
Surrounded by the bloody light, the Blood Demon Ring immediately flew out of the city of Chang 'an.
Although Zhang Dongyun didn't add any restriction to the ring, Blood Shadow didn't have the slightest intention of betraying him at the moment. He obeyed the order obediently.
His previous recovery was like a night-blooming cactus.
This time, Zhang Dongyun didn't heal him, so Blood Shadow was still seriously injured and weak.
But his previous recovery experience gave him hope. He only hoped that after he obeyed the order faithfully, his Majesty would give him more grace to recover.
Zhang Dongyun watched the bloody light leave and nodded slightly.
The Evil Emperor's refining of the core of the Immortals and the transformation of the core fragment into Chang 'an had caused a huge commotion.
The outside world might notice it, and some people might come here to hunt for treasures.
A certain Castellan surnamed Zhang couldn't ask for more.
It might be difficult to go out of the city to find people for the time being.
If others wanted to enter the city, Zhang Dongyun had the final say in the city.
If he could recruit a few suitable people to run errands for him, perhaps Master Zhang could complete the System's task without going out of the city.
If he could extend the invincible period, it would be better if he could also send people to search for the fragments of the Immortals in the city.
At present, there were only a few people in the city. He could use them as the first batch of tools and give it a try.
Previously, he had inherited the identity of the Evil Emperor and spared the lives of Blood Shadow and others. It seemed that he had done the right thing. They might come in handy later.
Zhang Dongyun came to the Blood River.
