The years when I explored the fairyland

Chu Zhou has always had a clear idea of ​​Xuanzhen Temple. It is a sect of immortals that hides in the mountains, lives in seclusion, and goes up and down. It seeks the great way of heaven and earth and has a long life.

Before, when the Overlord Xiong Kuohai came to visit, he asked how Xuanzhen Temple would deal with the conflict with the Overlord Sect?

Chu Zhou once answered that the resources Xuanzhen Temple wanted could not be given by mortals, so it would not occupy an inch of land outside Tianquan County.

Chu Zhou didn't know whether Xiong Kuohai believed it or not, but what he said was indeed what he thought in his heart.

An immortal sect must have the demeanor of an immortal sect. It should be detached from the mortal world, isn't it?

Of course, if you have to mention that before, Xuanzhen Temple was mixed in the rivers and lakes and competed with a group of warriors, that was also the situation, and there was nothing that could be done.

However, now, Chu Zhou wants to take this battle as an opportunity to use the mountain protection formation to make a cut, so that Xuanzhen Temple can get out of the mess of the rivers and lakes and become independent.

In Chu Zhou's plan, the four auxiliary cultivations of alchemy, weapons, talismans and arrays are the foundation, and then the two major fields of spiritual plants and beast control are involved, and gradually they can develop comprehensively.

As long as they don't stop moving forward, one day, Xuanzhen Temple will become the strongest in this world!

Of course, to say that in a short period of time, completely cut off the connection with the martial arts sect?

That is impossible!

But Chu Zhou thought that in the future, he could maintain a high profile and then be driven by interests.

Chu Zhou put forward his ideas, and Fan Zhong and Wei Jinkui had nothing to say. No, it was not just as simple as having nothing to say, but the more they thought about it, the more excited they became.

The immortal sect was so proud that they felt it was a loss of face to hang out with a group of martial artists every day.

They were happy to take the opportunity to establish the immortal sect's reputation.

Of course, the questions they raised were also objective!

With the mountain protection formation, it is inconvenient to enter and exit. The eating, drinking, defecation and urination of nearly 2,000 people inside and outside the sect, the subsequent construction of Xuanzhen Temple, and the visitors from various sects are all problems.

But there is a saying that goes, if you meet a mountain, you will open a road, and if you meet a river, you will build a bridge. As long as these problems are solved one by one, there will be no problem in the end.

However, Chu Zhou still called Qingjing Laodao, Hao Songqing, Wei Jinkui, Fan Zhong, Zhongli Linghui and Feng Yan after Xu Cheng and the other four came out of retreat, and held a closed-door meeting of the top leaders of Xuanzhen Temple.

The core of this meeting is naturally the future of Xuanzhen Temple, and Chu Zhou's proposal was agreed by everyone.

Although Chu Zhou usually behaves like a wise leader and is willing to listen to everyone's opinions, in fact, everyone is very convinced of him.

The development of Xuanzhen Temple has almost been brought up by him, and there has been no mistake in the general direction.

The main discussion among everyone is that if Xuanzhen Temple really wants to take the "high-end route", how to deal with various subsequent matters?

This seems simple, but in fact, it involves many aspects.

Such as system adjustment, internal planning and construction, subsequent recruitment and training of personnel, and a more clear promotion system.

And externally, there are also things such as the handling of the original industry, personnel transfers, the management of Tianquan County, the attitude towards the major sects, the establishment of intelligence networks, etc.

The change in the general direction represents adjustments in all aspects, which has far-reaching impacts, and may even affect the future thousands of years later. It is necessary to be cautious!

Chu Zhou didn't think anything at first, but he understood it after listening. This is clearly planning the foundation of the sect.

Then, under the discussion of everyone, policies began to come out one by one.

For example, in the subsequent construction of Xuanzhen Temple, on the one hand, the construction plan taken out by the prefect Ji Mingqian is no longer suitable for the present.

On the other hand, the speed of mortal craftsmen is too slow.

Therefore, Hao Songqing's opinion is that Xuanzhen Temple can build a special construction department.

In the early stage, some powerful mortal craftsmen can be hired, and in the later stage, they will focus on training the master architects and array masters of Xuanzhen Temple.

In the future, they will be responsible for the design and construction of Xuanzhen Temple. The temple will allocate funds every year, and then issue tasks in the main hall so that all outer disciples can receive them and participate in the construction.

The outer disciples of Xuanzhen Temple are all successful in body training and have infinite strength. They are good and fast at doing these hard work such as construction. Don't be too suitable.

Similarly, the contribution points distributed by the tasks can also allow them to exchange for the elixirs, ingredients, and even spells needed for cultivation, which can speed up their growth.

In fact, it is not that Xuanzhen Temple cannot give these, but people are very strange. They will always cherish what they have worked hard to obtain.

On the contrary, people will look down on it if it is free.

Therefore, Xuanzhen Temple teaches basic knowledge, but higher-level ones have to spend money, and they have to spend a lot of money.

In addition, the four major halls of "Danqi Fuzhen" should also be established.

Chu Zhou had planned this long ago, and had made some arrangements intermittently. For example, Xu Cheng and the other four each chose a secondary cultivation method.

But there have been few results.

Now, Xuanzhen Temple can finally be stable for a while, and these are worth spending a lot of effort to study.

In fact, the Dan Hall has already achieved results. After Taoist Qingjing got the alchemy furnace and "Basics of Alchemy", he studied day and night and finally made the first furnace of nourishing qi pills.

Although it is much worse than what is recorded in "Basics of Alchemy", there is no dan pattern on it, and there are many dan poisons inside, but this is the first step.

After taking the first step, there will be the second step, the third step, the fourth step...

In fact, this is of great significance.

Because, those teenagers are fine, but Taoist Qingjing, Zhongli Linghui, and Feng Yan are all quite old. Without the help of elixirs, it would be even more difficult for them to enter the foundation building stage.

However, compared with the achievements of the Alchemy Hall, the other three halls have not even entered the door.

It is indeed not an easy thing to practice auxiliary cultivation. It has a complete system in itself, and it takes a long time of study and exploration to achieve something.

Before, there were many things to do, and various situations followed one after another. There was rarely a stable time, and there was not enough time for cultivation, so naturally there was no energy to put on other things.

But this time, Chu Zhou clearly let Yi Huai lead the Refining Hall, Fan Tiehu lead the Formation Hall, and Wei Fangjie lead the Talisman Hall.

As for the Alchemy Hall, Chu Zhou handed it over to Taoist Qingjing. He did a good job, so there was no need for Xu Cheng to be the nominal hall master.

Don't think this is nothing. With them leading the way, plus the large amount of contribution points provided by the sect, all the disciples can sharpen their heads to get in.

Xuanzhen Temple promotes the basic knowledge of "Danqi Fuzhen" to the inner disciples appropriately.

Let the disciples have the opportunity to contact, learn, and try, so as to select the talented and interested ones, and thus accelerate their growth.

Chu Zhou certainly has expectations. If one or two auxiliary geniuses are selected, Xuanzhen Temple will make a lot of money.

It is worth mentioning that Taoist Qingjing also made a suggestion.

Although the world's sects are mainly martial arts, there are also secret sects, such as the Yiren League and Chaotian Temple where Taoist Qingjing was born.

Although these sects are weaker, their secrets are almost all inherited from ancient immortals, and there are many who are good at refining instruments, talismans and formations.

If you want to say how much they have achieved, maybe not much, after all, the inheritance is incomplete, but the knowledge and hands-on ability of dozens or hundreds of years of research are still good.

If they are given the Qi training method and a complete inheritance, it is possible to bring surprises!

This proposal is of course very good, and Chu Zhou also approved it.

However, it is not easy to find these people and pick out capable ones from a group of unqualified people.

After discussion, this matter was handed over to Wei Jinkui, Zhongli Linghui and Feng Yan, and they were asked to use channels to select.

But there is no rush. If you can find one, then find one. If you can't find one, forget it. It's better to have less than less.

In addition, there is the problem of food and drink in Xuanzhen Temple. With slaves and chores, the daily consumption of nearly 3,000 people is an extremely exaggerated number.

What's more, a group of young people who practice martial arts not only need to eat well, but also have to eat enough.

That is to say, Xuanzhen Temple is already the largest grain merchant in Tianquan County, otherwise it is hard to say whether it can support it.

There is no shortage of food for the time being, but the transportation problem. The solution is also simple, that is, take out the two storage bags.

After a period of time, Fan Zhong goes out to buy, and then puts it in the storage bag, and can carry it into Xuanzhen Temple, saving the trouble of transporting a large group of people.

However, this is just a stopgap measure.

In addition to the four major halls of "Danqi Fuzhen", Chu Zhou also built the Lingzhi Hall and Yushou Peak. One is dedicated to growing various spiritual rice to complete the food upgrade of Xuanzhen Temple.

The other is to raise some spiritual poultry and livestock at this stage to supplement meat.

Not to mention the immortal sect, almost all the big sects in this world will tame spiritual beasts to add some spiritual flesh and blood to their own sects.

At the martial arts performance and preaching conference, Chu Zhou specifically asked for some spiritual birds from some powerful sects. In the past, it was hard to say whether they would honestly offer them.

But now, Chu Zhou thinks they will only send the best and healthiest.

Of course, for this reason, Chu Zhou also entered the Jieyin Hall again, exchanged for a course of "Basics of Yushou", and handed it over to Xu Cheng.

That's right, Xu Cheng took over Yushou Peak, and Lingzhi Hall was taken over by Chu Zhou himself.

So far, the Alchemy Hall, the Weapon Refining Hall, the Formation Hall, the Talisman Hall, the Beast Taming Peak, the Spirit Planting Hall, the Construction Department,

plus the Mission Hall, the Discipline Department, the Transmission Hall, the Foreign Affairs Hall, a total of eleven halls, almost make up for the current needs of Xuanzhen Temple.

Perhaps, in the future, the sect will grow again and have to continue to expand, but now, it is enough.

After all the policies in all aspects are determined, all kinds of tasks are posted in the Mission Hall, and one by one, all of them have opened up very considerable sect contribution points.

You should know that since the opening of the Mission Hall, there have not been many tasks posted, and they are all outside Xuanzhen Temple, which is full of dangers.

Even if they are accepted, only the best of the inner disciples are eligible.

Unlike this time, almost all of them are inside the mountain protection formation, various spiritual fields are dug, wasteland is weeded, and houses are built.

Almost within the range of the mountain protection formation, not only is safety guaranteed, but it also does not interfere with daily practice and study.

The tasks were posted and snapped up immediately. All the disciples of Xuanzhen Temple were full of enthusiasm, just like animals, and began a vigorous sect construction plan.

So, with the naked eye, fertile fields were opened up one after another, and in the season of sowing, the spiritual seeds purchased by Chu Zhou were also sown.

There were also many hills that were sorted out. Apart from the Dan Hall, the previous Alchemy Peak was still the main one, and many medicinal fields were opened up around it to plant some precious medicinal materials.

There was also a hill that was also taken care of. Chu Zhou specially picked it and temporarily used it as the base camp of the Refining Hall.

To be precise, the Refining Hall needs to attract underground fire, preferably a place like a dead volcano, and then reinforced with formations.

But the current Xuanzhen Temple does not have the conditions, so it can only use the spiritual node as a combustion aid and forge with the furnace fire.

As I said, the local method is a little worse, but it is better than nothing.

As for the Fufa Hall and the Formation Hall, there is no need to be so troublesome, and a hilltop is built, a palace and pavilion are built, and practice is done inside.

Of course, Chu Zhou was not idle either. He began to run around to do the later debugging and maintenance for the "Sealing the Sky and Locking the Earth" mountain protection formation.

If this formation is completed, it will be a lot of trouble to change it. Simply, this time he is not in a hurry, he can take his time and try it a little bit.

The only consequence is that every time he tries, the earth dragon will inevitably turn over.

The mountains shook and roared, even if there was fog covering it, it could be heard in Baisha City, which made countless warriors look at it sideways.

It is worth mentioning that this time, after careful consideration, Chu Zhou made large-scale adjustments.

For example, the direction of the spiritual vein was redefined, the core of the formation was moved to the depths of the Red Dragon Mountains, and dozens of more mountaintops were covered, covering hundreds of miles of territory.

Another example is to reduce the defensive effect of the formation to the minimum, maintain a low energy consumption state, but strengthen the maze of the outside world.

In this way, while ensuring the minimum spiritual power loss, it also strengthens security.

Chu Zhou also made more than 20 travel tokens to ensure that you can travel through the maze, but you have to register and receive them every time you enter and exit.

In addition, the fog effect at the mountain gate was weakened, the outline of the mountain gate was revealed, and a bronze bell was hung.

If someone really wants to pay homage to the mountain, rings the bronze bell, and Xuanzhen Temple is willing to receive him, someone will lead him in.

This time, Chu Zhou initially thought of making a slight adjustment, but later, there were more and more changes.

It was also because he was too hasty before, and many things were not thought out when arranging, and he did it in a hurry, so he had to spend more time adjusting.

In the blink of an eye, six months had passed. Chu Zhou, who had finished his work, stood in the air, looking around.

At this moment, the entire Xuanzhen Temple has covered an area of ​​more than 100 miles, and there are 32 mountains covering it.

Among the mountains, palaces have risen from the ground, some have been completed, and some are still under construction.

The palaces are connected by bluestone roads.

On both sides, there are all spiritual fields that have been opened up, planting various spiritual grains, spiritual rice, and even various medicinal materials.

There are also small rivers running through the mountains, along the winding paths, disappearing at the end of the field of vision.

Of course, less than half of the huge territory has been opened up. In the northwest, there are still large tracts of barren forests to be developed.

However, there are only so many people in Xuanzhen Temple now, and the area is too large, and it is troublesome to travel back and forth.

Therefore, that piece of land is reserved for the future expansion of Xuanzhen Temple, and there are various plans.

Blinking his eyes, Chu Zhou looked at the martial arts arena again.

There, some disciples were performing martial arts, showing their domineering forms, with one punch and one kick, stirring up the wind and clouds, with terrifying momentum.

But more often, some disciples were chanting, or spitting out flames, or summoning wind blades, or shooting out a stream of water, or erecting a wall of earth, or throwing out evil-breaking golden light...

After practicing until now, many inner disciples of Xuanzhen Temple have finally mastered magic. Every time they use it, they can attract everyone's attention, causing amazement and applause.

When magic becomes popular, the methods of this warrior are not so popular.

Chu Zhou looked and looked, and a smile appeared on his face.

He had a feeling that after working hard until now, the immortal sect he founded with his own hands finally had some appearance.

"Master, Master..."

A call came, but it was Wei Jinkui who stepped on a white cloud and flew up slowly. Before he got close, his face showed an embarrassed look.

Chu Zhou rubbed his brows and asked, "What happened?"

"It's still the same thing. More and more sects have gathered in Baisha City. They neither leave nor make trouble. They just send visiting cards every day and surround me in various ways.

I don't dare to go out to buy things now."

After a pause, he said, "How about you, Master, meet them?"
