Absolute control over the start, I will develop my own immortality

"Thank you fellow Taoist for reminding me."

Zhou Ming nodded and said, "I just heard that you have been to Beijie City, so I made this request. I didn't expect that Beijie City is so dangerous. Thank you for delaying your visit.

However, even so, I still want to go to Beijie City. At the same time, I also urge fellow Taoists to go with me. "

Venerable Xuan Feng raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that even after he had made his words so clearly, the other party was still prepared to go.

She naturally didn't think that Zhou Ming would have a stubborn temper like Venerable Shenniu, so she thought there must be a reason for his behavior.

It’s not just because of the Hu family.

Sure enough, Zhou Ming said, "I want to go to Beijie City. The Hu family is only one of the reasons. The most important thing is that Wudeju needs to develop. And Tuoyue City is too small."

Venerable Xuan Feng suddenly understood.

Yes, Tuoyue City is too small.

But as a commercial city, it is obviously qualified.

After all, it is just a place for the transformation of gods. It cannot accommodate the return to the void, let alone two people who return to the void.

Because of the situation, they could endure it temporarily, but the two powerful Return to Void masters of Wudeju would never endure it again.

They must seek a wider world.

To be honest, for Wudeju today, the best goal is the nearby Jiulong Mountain.

However, the two sides have just formed an alliance and cooperated to resolve the threat from the Hu family.

Jiulongshan did not destroy the bridge after crossing it, but chose to continue the alliance and allow Wudeju to build the spiritual medicine garden.

Zhou Ming naturally wouldn't be so tasteless as to turn against her.

Especially when his secret erosion plan was going smoothly.

After all, Zhou Ming and the Hu family are actually the same kind of people. They both want the land of Jiulong Mountain, but at the same time, they do not want to conflict with the majority of the Jiulong Mountain monsters. They want to rule this area more peacefully and stably.

The Hu family did this because they now had no base and the entire family was homeless.

If they can really take Jiulong Mountain, then this mountain range will become their base, and they will naturally want to manage it well.

But they are outsiders after all, so even the best solution they can think of is to kill the three people from Jiulong Mountain and conquer the others.

Zhou Ming’s current situation is actually similar.

The Skyfire Secret Realm is obviously not sufficient to be developed as a base, and the current situation in Tianheng City is extremely bad.

Therefore, he chose to develop Tuoyue City, and actually took Jiulong Mountain as the first target.

As the first base, his idea was the same as that of the Hu family.

However, he chose a more gentle approach and sent a large number of members of the Moming Hall to infiltrate and develop.

Seize Jiulong Mountain by means of secret invasion.

If this plan goes well, not only will they be able to capture Jiulong Mountain without bloodshed, but they will also be able to gain the recognition of the majority of local monster tribes to avoid any problems in the future.

Perhaps, even the three people from Jiulong Mountain will be dragged into it, or even join in without realizing it.

Now that everything is going according to plan, Zhou Ming naturally won't deliberately create other twists and turns.

But from the surface, it is obvious that Tuoyue City cannot accommodate Wudeju.

If he really behaves like this, Jiulong Mountain will probably have too much suspicion over time.

Use this as an excuse to go to Beijie City and accomplish your other goals.

But in the eyes of Venerable Xuanfeng, this is obviously not the case.

Wudeju needs to develop, and the best target is Jiulongshan.

However, Zhou Ming did not want to seize his allies' territory or come into conflict with them, so he chose to go to Beijie City to seek development.

He really is...even Venerable Xuanfeng was a little moved.

In this world of cultivating immortals, are there actually cultivators who value friendship more than interests?

Zhou Ming continued, "In fact, Jiulong Mountain, like me, needs to seek a new direction for development. In the past, Jiulong Mountain had been on the path of strengthening its combat power for thousands of years because it was an enemy of the Heyi Alliance. But such a development path is obviously deformed...

Moreover, most of the resources a faction needs must rely on the attack of another faction, which is a mistake in itself."

Venerable Xuan Feng sighed.

Although what Zhou Ming said was a bit unpleasant, it was indeed true.

Jiulong Mountain has been an enemy of the Heyi Alliance for thousands of years and the fighting has continued, so it is full of martial virtue.

In terms of combat capability, he is not inferior to any Return to Void cultivator of the same level.

But despite this combat effectiveness, its productivity is extremely low.

In such a huge Jiulong Mountain, there are not even a few spiritual medicine gardens, because they do not have the technology to grow spiritual medicines on a large scale and in a systematic manner.

In Jiulong Mountain, the one with the highest attainment in alchemy is only an alchemist at the Nascent Soul level.

The Divine Bull Venerable, one of the three Return to the Void, has a very powerful dark gold stick, but that spiritual treasure was extremely crudely refined, and its power was entirely dependent on the advantages of the materials.

With such a low level of productivity, the elixirs and treasures produced by Jiulong Mountain are completely insufficient to supply the entire Jiulong Mountain, especially the strong ones above the Nascent Soul level.

But the Jiulong Mountain has not collapsed so far because they have their own supply channels, which can provide cultivation resources above the Nascent Soul level, various magic weapons, and spiritual treasures.

That is Zhaoyue Pavilion.

Or rather, Zhijin Tower!

However, this kind of survival mode, which completely relies on another force to provide resources, is obviously completely deformed.

Once Zhaoyue Pavilion stops trading with them, Jiulong Mountain will immediately be cut off from resource supply.

Even if this is not the case, if Zhaoyue Pavilion lowers the price during trade, Jiulong Mountain will suffer a huge loss.

Fortunately, Venerable Xuanfeng had taken this matter into consideration when he signed the trade contract with Zhijinlou, and therefore set corresponding conditions in the contract.

So that didn't happen.

However, the purchase price of those sales materials is obviously different from the buying and selling price of the same level materials in Beijie City.

But this is also normal. Trade has always been about buying cheap and selling high.

They come all the way from Beijie City to buy your materials. What are they trying to achieve?

Isn't it just a bargain?

If the materials here are the same price as those in Beijie City, why don’t people buy them directly in Beijie City?

Therefore, Venerable Xuanfeng could accept this point.

But she was so far-sighted that she naturally knew that Jiulong Mountain could not always rely on Zhaoyue Pavilion.

In the past, with the powerful enemy Heyi League right in front of them, most of the power in Jiulong Mountain was used to fight against this enemy.

But now the enemy is gone, and the new neighbors are virtuous.

Under such circumstances, Jiulongshan should indeed consider how to develop next.

Even so, Jiulong Mountain's foundation is too strong after all. They do not have high-level methods of cultivating spiritual medicines, alchemy, refining and other hundreds of other arts inheritance.

Are they supposed to figure it out on their own?

That's obviously impossible.

Attack other forces?

It's not realistic.

The best way, naturally, is to seek help from Beijie City.

Although the North Boundary City is very dangerous, for the sake of the development of power, why should we be afraid of the so-called danger?
