Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

"Fellow Daoist, let's throw some flowers!"

Stop spacing out!

"Get to work!"

"We're starting to feel the strain!"

Mei Niang's sweet, coquettish voice startled Wang Quan.

"What's wrong?" Wang Quan asked in surprise.

Mei Niang pouted and pointed to the second and third floors: "Look, these cannons have come to life."

Ok?

Wang Quan raised his head, then fell silent.

He saw a multi-barreled cannon suddenly leap into the air and smash into its head while the captain and cook were injured.

boom!

The captain's cook's head was shattered, and the multi-barreled cannon base sprouted flesh, bronze chains, steel nails, and other debris, which pierced the captain's cook's body.

The cook's chest and abdomen throbbed as he struggled to break free.

Click:

The cook's chest split open, forming a gigantic mouth: "Second General, have you gone mad?"

"We're partners. Whether I hold you or carry you on my back, we can fight against those despicable humans."

Why do you insist on riding on my head?

The cannon sneered: "Traitors, when you were hiding the Daoist emblem of the [World's Daoist Court] and thinking of taking it all for yourselves, why didn't you say I was your ally?"

"Today I will take his place."

Click!Click!

Bronze chains emerged from the captain's belly, transforming into needles and thread to sew up the mouth on his stomach.

The captain struggled and sobbed, but to no avail.

Soon, the captain and cook stopped struggling.

Below his neck was still a human being, but above his neck, a multi-barreled cannon had taken its place.

Click!Click!

The cannon barrel spun, then suddenly let out a strange, cacophony of laughter: "It feels so good to be alive!"

"It turns out that I was missing some memories from before."

"This is the real me."

"quack!"

"Get out of the way, I'm going to wipe out the intruders!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The artillery captain assumed a horse stance, with seven or eight arms sprouting from his ribs to continuously fill the cannons.

With a thought, iron balls hurtled towards Wang Quan and the others.

Wang Quan saw:

Jinghong and the others would need to unleash three to five defensive spells to barely block a single cannonball.

These shells have become more powerful.

At this time, evil things such as an obese dormitory supervisor, books, and spiders also appeared.

They merged with multi-barreled cannons, doubling their attack power and resistance; in an instant, they actually caused many Daoist cultivators to retreat in defeat, and in the end, they all crowded in front of the temporary safe zone formed by the Daoist scriptures.

Because of the limited space, many spirits were forced to overlap.

Some Yang Gods looked disgusted, while others looked like they were enjoying themselves. They even deliberately twisted their bodies a few times to adjust their posture and overlap with the other Yang Gods more perfectly.

boom!

Ruo Jinghong kicked away seven or eight Yang Gods, then leaped into the air, shrinking to the size of a palm: "Shrink a bit, all of you. Don't overlap like that with those lewd expressions, okay?"

However, there were only a few hundred or so responders, and the other Yang Gods remained overlapping.

Among them, the Yang Gods who overlap with Ma Qingqiu, Meiniang, and others are the most numerous.

The sight of a dozen or even dozens of Yang Gods overlapping together sent a shiver down Wang Quan's spine.

Fortunately, his special status, along with his duties to write Taoist scriptures and establish temporary safe zones, led many cultivators to restrain themselves.

Otherwise... hehe...

The Taoist scriptures were carved volume after volume.

As time went by, even as the evil ones merged with each other, the Daoist cultivators gradually gained a foothold by relying on their ever-increasing number of like-minded individuals.

one day....

Ten days...

One month.....

The second layer of the world: about two thousand Daoist cultivators chanted the Scripture of Salvation, suppressing the evil forces such as the artillery captain.

At this time, an entire wall was covered with depictions of Taoist scriptures.

Hundreds of thousands of orthodox Foundation Establishment cultivators sat upright beneath this wall, continuously unleashing their magical power to repeatedly trace the Daoist scriptures, amplifying their power and stabilizing the temporary safe zone.

At this moment, Wang Quan was drawing the Taoist scriptures on the second wall.

He originally thought that writing scriptures would become easier over time.

The reality is harsh: it's becoming increasingly difficult to describe the Daoist scriptures.

At his peak, he can only draw one scroll of Daoist scripture at a time, and then he must return to the real world to recover in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

The progress slowed down, but the many cultivators remained in high spirits.

"One wall is done, only three walls left."

"Once Lord Sahua opens up this safe zone, the entire far west will tremble because of him!"

"At that time, our Stone City will become one of the top cities."

"Master, I think you should reduce the number of Daoist cultivators coming."

"Whoever wants to come here must receive benefits. Don't ask for too much; the starting point should be a thousand or eight hundred Foundation Establishment spiritual lights."

"This is it, and they shouldn't complain about the price. If they do, move on to the next person."

"In the far west, Daoist cultivators are as numerous as hairs on a cow, and those who are not short of money are as numerous as stars in the sky."

A group of monks advised the king to seek personal gain.

Upon hearing this, Wang Quan couldn't help but gasp.

He felt he was already a beast, but these guys were even more beastly than him.

"Great idea!" Wang Quan praised.

The monks were delighted, considering it as their suggestion having been adopted and remembered by the king.

I don't seek to gain much benefit in the future; I just want to stay in Stone City.

"If the later generation receives a thousand Foundation Establishment Spirit Lights, you must pay at least eight hundred Spirit Lights in return."

Well.......

The smiles of the monks froze.

Pfft!

Mei Niang and the others laughed so hard they were shaking.

Wang Quan coughed: "You also need to pay an additional five hundred spirit lights."

Well.......

The trembling of Mei Niang and the others also froze.

"brute!"

Mei Niang gritted her teeth: "You don't even have a trace of Foundation Establishment spiritual light. How about you repay me with your body?"

Wang Quan blinked: "I'll compensate you with five hundred beams of spiritual light!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

After all this commotion, all the cultivators understood that the king would no longer accept Foundation Establishment spiritual light.

For a moment, everyone's feelings were quite complicated.

Ruo Jinghong privately asked him, "Stone City has enormous potential for future development; it might even become one of the top cities in the far west."

"It doesn't matter how many of those cannon fodder come, since they'll all die sooner or later anyway."

"However, Foundation Establishment cultivators and higher-level cultivators who want to come here can enjoy many benefits."

"It's not unreasonable for you to charge a fee."

Wang Quan shook his head: "The Daoist Foundation Establishment cultivators were all forced to come to the far west."

"Everyone is already having a hard time... I don't want to accept any benefits from them."

"I just hope that the Daoist cultivators who come to Stone City can grow together with Stone City and do their best to strengthen it."

If Jinghong heard about it, she wouldn't care.

However, in the days that followed, she discovered:

New Daoist cultivators will actively integrate themselves; although they still have many small groups and families in private.

However, all groups and families strictly adhere to all the tasks assigned by the monarchy.

No matter how tedious or dangerous the task was, no one complained.

On the contrary, everyone did their best to complete it.

Under these circumstances, the development of Stone City changed almost every day.

In just one year, the city has undergone tremendous changes.
