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

Within just a few months, the Ninth Army was captured.

In the past, Ying Jiaren would have gone straight onto the stage without saying a word, performing a ritual to determine who was superior and who was fighting for the Ninth Legion.

But now, after a slight ripple in her heart, she put the Ninth Legion out of her mind.

"What I want is not a legion, but a city, or the entire far north."

"To control this city, I must act like royalty: accelerate its development."

"What a king can do, I can do too."

"Moreover, I want to improve upon his work and do it even better."

Thinking of this, she smiled slightly and headed straight for the teleportation hall.

Not long after, 1.2 million orthodox cultivators were teleported over.

These orthodox cultivators were obtained by her after she had used her authority to discard all Daoist cultivators.

"I will rent you some spells in a moment, and you can take turns casting them."

She used her privileges to divide them into twelve teams, and then had them take turns using the [Foundation Building Spirit Earth Technique] with 100,000 points of power.

Splash! Splash! Splash!

One hundred thousand cultivators seized spiritual soil, and a massive amount of spiritual soil fell into a small area.

Five types of fruit trees and mulberry branches are planted here.

Ying Jiaren personally led many cultivators in their efforts to successfully plant ten mulberry trees.

After these ten mulberry trees were born, Ying Jiaren had an epiphany. She opened her mouth and spat out mouthfuls of her heart's blood, then added a mysterious blessing to them, which was a mixture of thirty-six fundamental methods for foundation building and Qi refining, including the [Mysterious Fragrance Self Method], [Incense Self Method], [Heavenly Fragrance Flowing Fire Method], and [Sacrifice to Become a God Method].

In this way, she gained complete control over the ten mulberry trees.

With a thought, she rendered the mulberry tree unable to propagate by cuttings.

"From now on, in this far north, there will only be ten mulberry trees that can gather sunlight and nourish the earth's veins."

"From now on, no matter how the world changes, it will remain unchanged!"

The next moment, a thought struck her, and incense appeared beneath her feet. Then she took to the air and flew to ten small mulberry trees.

call!call!call!

She exhaled breaths of magical power.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

She patted her treasure pouch, and the many resources she had painstakingly accumulated fell like raindrops.

Nearby, there were also orthodox cultivators who grabbed handfuls of spiritual soil and threw them in front of the mulberry tree.

The cultivators also unleashed their magical power, casting life-giving spells to continuously bless them.

Other cultivators planted five elemental fruit trees around the mulberry tree to help it regulate the earth's veins.

Because the soil layer in the bitterly cold city is too thin, only a little over a meter deep.

Despite the numerous spells and spiritual soil blessings, the mulberry tree and the five-element fruit tree appeared to be malnourished.

If it weren't for magic and the continuous supply of spiritual soil, these trees would have died long ago.

There are 100,000 cultivators, and the external system is loaded with the earth vein refining technique brought back by the beautiful woman.

Fine veins of earth fall around the fruit trees, forcibly maintaining their vitality and thus enabling them to operate within a certain small area.

one day.....

Ten days...

One month...

The many legions in the harsh, cold lands slowly forgot about Ying Jiaren.

Because, after her return, she chose to keep a low profile.

She neither went to the city walls to fight against the abnormal climate, nor did she fight against the many monsters born within it.

She actually led a million ordinary Qi Refining Realm cultivators to farm.

Moreover... the results of farming are really mediocre.

However, what others consider an ordinary result is, in Ying Jiaren's eyes, the most outstanding achievement.

The mulberry trees and the 1,800 or so fruit trees of the Five Elements finally formed a small cycle that could barely maintain its operation without external interference.

Within this small cycle:

The earth is two meters thick, and the area is densely covered with tiny veins of earth, energy, and spirit.

To Ying Jiaren's surprise:

Of these things, spiritual veins have the best nourishing effect on mulberry trees and the five elemental fruit trees.

The effects of more than ten earth veins and dozens of energy veins are equivalent to the effects of one spiritual vein.

"Prioritize the development of spiritual veins!"

"Create ten spiritual veins, five earth veins, and five energy veins."

"Build it according to this ratio, and give priority to the development of mulberry trees and five-element fruit trees."

After this series of operations, another month passed, and this area formed a stable internal cycle.

Under this internal circulation, the earth's thickness reaches an astonishing ten meters.

Beneath the earth, there still lurks various terrifying and violent forces, including those related to fire, wind, and water.

These violent forces would have gradually eroded the earth.

However, under the guidance of the mulberry tree and the five-element fruit tree, the roots became tangled and intertwined, stubbornly resisting the earth, fire, and feng shui.

And gradually erode the earth, fire, and feng shui.

Although the pace is slow, it is progressing steadily and does not require extra effort or manpower.

Therefore, Ying Jiaren was quite satisfied with this.

The more than one million cultivators were even more satisfied with this.

Because during this period, they didn't have to go to the city walls to be cannon fodder and die.

They just need to quietly farm and cultivate the land.

However, some people are quite dissatisfied.

"Has Ying Jiaren fallen into depravity? What happened to her ambitions?"

Some legion leaders were stunned as they watched Ying Jiaren continuously tilling the fields.

This is not what they expected!

They all wanted to see the new recruits of the Ninth Legion clash with Ying Jiaren, ideally ending in mutual destruction.

As a result... two months passed, and the two sides did not meet.

This is really awkward.

A monk went to see the commander of the Ninth Legion and mentioned Ying Jiaren.

The legion commander laughed: "I already feel quite embarrassed that I took the Ninth Legion while she was away."

"If we were to take advantage of this opportunity to scheme against her, we would be utterly inhuman."

"You don't need to try to seduce me; I will never cause her any trouble."

One of the monks chuckled, "What if she causes you trouble?"

The Ninth Army Commander paused for a moment, then said, "It wouldn't hurt if she beat me up."

hiss!

The cultivator gasped, "You can actually endure such humiliation?"

The Ninth Legion Commander chuckled, "What's so special about letting the renowned Ying Jiaren humiliate me?"

"Do you believe that if we just spread the word that she wants to humiliate some cultivators for fun, thousands upon thousands of cultivators will willingly offer themselves up to her for humiliation?"

The monk: "Uh...this..."

-----------------

Although no cultivators have yet tried to persuade Ying Jiaren to seek out the new Ninth Legion Commander, some legion commanders who had been bullied by her in the past are secretly plotting to cause a conflict between Ying Jiaren and the current Ninth Legion Commander.

Just as they were plotting, a big shot from the Bitter Cold City came to see Ying Jiaren in person.

This important figure, observing Ying Jiaren's mulberry and five-element fruit trees, inquiring about her many philosophies, and then looking at the 1.2 million orthodox cultivators taking turns imbuing themselves with the top-tier spells of Daoist cultivators, sighed with considerable emotion:

"Is this a tactic you learned from royalty?"

"Um!"

"Hehe... We considered a million possibilities, but we never expected him to use the slowest, most stupid, and most primitive method."

"Heh...it's really...ridiculous." The important man had mixed feelings.

Ying Jiaren's heart skipped a beat: "Haven't you tried this before?"

The important figure sighed, "When we first opened up 3,908 cities in the far west, we used this most primitive method."

"However, this method has been slow to progress, and various unexpected problems have arisen in terms of resource consumption, spell cheating, and leasing."

"So it wasn't fully rolled out later."

"I didn't expect... that you've used it again now."

"This is...interesting!"

Ying Jiaren was taken aback: "But I feel this method is really fast!"
