Chapter 152: Tier Three Ghost General, Formation Complete, Another Retainer Added
The intelligence mentions an incomplete secret realm within the fiefdom, but the fiefdom is not limited to the Supreme Profound Peak; even the Taiqiu Mountain Range itself contains dozens of peaks.
Fu Changsheng murmured:
"It seems further intelligence exchange is necessary."
Hopefully, the intelligence will provide more precise information, particularly concerning that medium-sized mineral vein.
Just then.
A series of "squeak" sounds came from within the Cloud Ring Purple Immortal Tower.
Fu Changsheng paused for a moment.
He then remembered that while in the Thousand Cliff Mountain Canyon, he had placed a half-grown Tier One Middle Stage Golden-eyed Monkey and a pair of Golden-eyed Monkey cubs into the tower.
He had been so busy with the fief's miscellaneous affairs that he had forgotten about them.
Now, the pair of cubs were hungry, crying loudly.
He was unfamiliar with the care of demon beast cubs.
A technique was infused into the Communication Jade Talisman, his lips moved a few times, and after a while, his fourth sister Fu Changli ascended from the foot of the mountain on a flying ship.
Fu Changsheng pointed at the Cloud Ring Purple Immortal Tower.
The door on the first level of the tower opened with a click, accompanied by three beams of blue light, and the three Golden-eyed Monkeys instantly fell onto the flying ship:
"Golden-eyed Monkeys?!"
Fourth sister Fu Changli's eyes lit up.
According to the spirit beast heritage she obtained at Qingxu Sect, Golden-eyed Monkeys have the potential to grow into Tier Three beasts, she exclaimed happily:
"Patriarch, did you find these Golden-eyed Monkeys in the fief?"
Fu Changsheng shook his head.
He instructed her to take good care of them.
"Patriarch, rest assured, I will do my utmost to nurture them."
Fu Changli responded, seeing the cubs were extremely hungry, she apologized briefly and took them to find food.
Fu Changsheng murmured to himself:
"I hope this surviving half-grown Golden-eyed Monkey knows how to brew Spiritual Ape Wine."
Simultaneously.
That familiar mechanical voice echoed in his mind:
"Ding"
"You have added three Golden-eyed Monkeys to the clan, earning thirty Contribution Points."
On the panel.
The Contribution Points changed from three hundred forty-six to three hundred seventy-six.
Seeing the decent amount of Contribution Points, Fu Changsheng immediately moved with intent:
"Exchange intelligence"
Buzz!
The panel trembled.
A lot of yellow light surged forth.
Lines of text quickly appeared:
[1: After a fierce battle between the sects of the Western Desert and the Court, the Qi Cultivation clans on the Western Desert frontier suffered greatly, with less than ten percent of their Qi Cultivators surviving, and mortal people left without a place to settle. These border citizens, once scattered, will be transported to your fiefdom in ten days.
Among these refugees.
There is a Spirit Plant Cultivator with a destroyed Dantian, rendered crippled.]
....
The following nine pieces of intelligence.
Were mostly irrelevant information.
They did not pinpoint the location of the incomplete secret realm or the mineral vein.
He decided to stop the exchange:
"It seems the incomplete secret realm at least isn't within the Supreme Profound Peak."
Otherwise.
At such a close distance.
The intelligence couldn't possibly fail to show it.
The Court's gift of thirty thousand mortals is about to arrive; they will at least need a place to settle.
Fu Changsheng gathered Molan and his fourth sister together to discuss how to accommodate the refugees.
Fu Molan was the first to speak:
"East from Yunshan County leads to the Ten Thousand Mountains; during our time here, we have seen several instances of demon beasts frequently appearing in the fief. It seems we can't implement separate living quarters for mortals and cultivators like in Anyang County."
It's not just demon beasts.
During this period.
Fu Changsheng's Divine Sense detected several spies from various tribes of the Eastern Wilderness.
If mortals want to survive here.
They must rely on cultivators.
Fu Changsheng nodded and said:
"Given this situation, since our Fu Clan Members won't relocate from here in the short term, we might as well let them settle at the foot of the Supreme Profound Peak. Later, ask Uncle Yu to encompass their residency within the Mountain Protection Array, while dividing it into inner and outer layers of arrays. This way, although it's not truly separate living quarters for mortals and cultivators, it should maintain the Peak's secrecy to some extent."
Fu Molan and Fu Changli naturally had no objections.
Fu Molan voluntarily stated:
"Patriarch, I'll first use Puppet Beasts to clean out the area where the mortals will reside."
Several days passed.
Grandmaster Yu had also surveyed the nearby peaks and presented Fu Changsheng with two options:
"Changsheng, although the Ten Thousand Ghosts Array map you gave me is a complete set, I've only repaired one side so far; the maximum coverage would be centered on Supreme Profound Peak plus the five adjacent peaks."
"However"
"If this repaired side of the map extends its coverage to the maximum area, its defensive capability will be greatly reduced, as this side of the map was originally designed for offense, so it depends on your choice."
Currently, with the fief's population thin.
No other choice is needed.
Fu Changsheng directly stated:
"Uncle Yu, the Ten Thousand Ghost Array map only needs to cover Supreme Profound Peak and its foot, but does the array require Spirit Stones for regular operation?"
Grandmaster Yu shook his head:
"If the coverage area is limited to Supreme Profound Peak, using the Tier Two Spirit Vein as the power source, it is sufficient to maintain the array's normal operation. However, unlike the Star Array at Luofeng Mountain, to activate the map for confrontation, middle-grade Spirit Stones must be inserted into thirty-six array hubs."
Middle-grade Spirit Stones?!
Fu Changsheng was puzzled.
The clan currently lacks middle-grade Spirit Stones, but considering this array is Tier Three Low-Grade, it seems understandable:
"Uncle Yu, if the array is fully activated, how many middle-grade Spirit Stones are approximately needed? Also, how powerful is its strongest attack?"
Upon this topic.
Grandmaster Yu spoke with some pride:
"I fused it with Sword Qi Mountain, so if a middle-grade Spirit Stone is placed in each of the array hubs, the map can be activated to manifest a Tier Three Ghost General to confront enemies!"
Tier Three Ghost General!!
Fu Changsheng's eyes lit up at this.
Thus.
