Wizards in the world of cultivation

Chapter 75 Long-Distance Fishing (Please continue reading)
After the test was completed, Su You quickly turned off the scanning ability. This scanning ability may seem insignificant, but it is actually a major energy consumer. In just a short while, it consumed almost the same amount of energy as the energy beam from before.

Of course, in a real battle, a precise scan of all areas is not possible. Su You only conducted a large-scale scan to find a suitable test site, excluding the presence of humans on it, which naturally increased the energy consumption.

However, emitting an energy beam is also quite costly, consuming the equivalent of ten bottles of second-tier spirit liquid, worth around 20,000 spirit stones.

It's true what they say: when the cannons roar, gold pours in.

However, the spirit stones were well spent. A fourth-tier talisman costs at least 300,000 spirit stones, while a fourth-tier attack only costs 20,000 spirit stones. This is indeed a good deal. Moreover, he cannot use the fourth-tier talisman, but he can use the fourth-tier attack at will.

As long as he is within a thousand miles of the Wizard Tower, he can attack any place he points to.

If the attack is in over-limit mode, it can attack enemies within a range of up to two thousand miles, which is an extremely long range.

A fourth-tier low-grade grand formation can only cover a range of up to a thousand miles.

Moreover, formations are generally defensive in nature, and even if they have offensive effects, they will only be visible within the formation.

But when actually encountering an enemy, no one would be so foolish as to directly enter the formation and suffer its attacks for nothing.

The correct approach is to attack from the outside, and only enter the interior after breaking through the formation.

The Wizard Tower does not have this drawback. It does not have the obvious external features of an array. As long as it does not launch an attack, no one will know that this area of ​​a thousand miles is a forbidden zone.

In the Qingzhou Realm, combat power at the Nascent Soul level is already considered top-tier, and even in other major states with Nascent Soul Venerables, it would be considered high-level.

With this attack formation, as long as he doesn't provoke a powerful force like the Void Heaven Sect, no one in Qingzhou will dare to cause him trouble.

Within the Mingkong Islands, the strongest being is a cultivator at the early Nascent Soul stage. If the opponent harbors hostility, they can deliver a fatal blow once they dare to approach the Wizard Tower's attack range.

Within the Mingkong Islands, Su You could be described as having no scruples, though not entirely unrestrained.

……

one year later.

"Xiao Bei, how much energy is stored in the energy pool now?" Su You asked, stretching his body.

Half a year ago, Su You used another Spirit Ascension Array to create another mid-grade third-tier spiritual vein on Luoxia Island. This not only provided more spiritual energy to the energy pool, but also allowed him to build a market on it to attract more independent cultivators.

The ultimate path to making money is real estate; this is a truth that even the cultivation world cannot escape.

"Master, the energy pool's energy reserves have now reached thirty percent."

"Thirty percent...that's enough. Enough to handle a high-intensity battle. Now I can finally show my skills."

During this year, after confirming the power of the attack formation, Su You did not immediately take action. Instead, he waited a year to accumulate enough energy to deal with any unexpected situations that might arise in the future.

"Qi Yuan, how is it? Have you found the person I asked you to find?" Su You asked, taking out his communication jade tablet.

"Master, we've found them. All you need to do is go to Tingyu Pavilion on Aurora Island and show off your wealth to lure them in. This shop is owned by the Golden Core Chen family, who have robbed and killed wealthy rogue cultivators many times. Although they do this very discreetly, it can't escape our Qi family's intelligence." Qi Yuan replied immediately.

Although Su You planned to open a market on Luoxia Island and recruit independent cultivators to farm, he did not intend to handle these miscellaneous matters personally.

Whether it's research or cultivation, Su You's schedule isn't very tight, but he also doesn't waste time dealing with miscellaneous tasks.

He only needs to control the overall affairs of Luoxia Island. Even if mistakes are made, he can easily turn things around as long as he has the power.

"Looks like I'll have to take matters into my own hands again." Su You twisted his neck. "Fishing doesn't require skill; the key is sincerity."

What to do if you lack reliable subordinates?
Naturally, they lured a few cultivators with fishing.

Su You felt no psychological pressure whatsoever in controlling and enslaving the cultivators.

"Xiao Bei, after I leave the island, I will handle the affairs on the island myself."

Another advantage of the Wizard Tower over arrays is that it doesn't require human control; the tower spirit can control it independently and monitor the situation in various locations.

Of course, when Su You is around, the tower spirit will usually report the matter to him first before taking action.

……

Aurora Island, Listening to the Rain Pavilion.

"Fellow Daoist Su, I will definitely visit Luoxia Island next time." Chen Qi said with a smile, appearing to be having a very pleasant conversation.

After watching Su You leave, Chen Qi immediately changed his expression, revealing a sinister smile. "If what you said is true, I will definitely go over to 'pay a visit.' I hope Fellow Daoist Su will still be able to smile then."

Sixty thousand spirit stones!

This time, Su You spent 60,000 spirit stones at Tingyu Pavilion to purchase a large number of pills to enhance the mana of the early Foundation Establishment stage, several mid-grade second-tier spiritual artifacts, and dozens of second-tier talismans.

Such a large amount of spirit stones was enough to make Chen Qi envious. Even if Su You had no more spirit stones, snatching back the treasures he was selling would still be a huge profit.

Don't underestimate the seemingly small amount of 60,000 spirit stones. In the Foundation Establishment realm, this amount is quite substantial. Although many Foundation Establishment cultivators possess such wealth, they may not be able to readily produce that many spirit stones.

Although Su You also wanted to offer more spirit stones to lure the other party in, his current cultivation level was only at the second level of Foundation Establishment. Spending too many spirit stones would only make him more suspicious.

Moreover, the lower his cultivation level, the easier it is to attract the other party to take the bait.

Although the concealment technique obtained from the Void Heaven Pavilion was only moderately effective, it was still beyond the comprehension of someone at the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Xiaoyu, go and inform Elder Chen Dong to follow behind that person and not to make a move. Wait for my instructions." Chen Qi immediately ordered as he watched Su You's figure slowly disappear into the street. "After informing Elder Chen Dong, go to the Alliance and find Elder Chen Guang of your family. Investigate whether this person is the island lord of Luoxia Island, what his cultivation level is, and what forces are behind him. Make sure you find out all of these things!"

He wouldn't believe Su You just because of a few words. Although he had extracted all this information from him, it could also be a trap set by the enemy to deliberately deceive him.

Of course, it's also possible that he deliberately gave a false identity to mislead him.
