Chapter 186: Successive Foundation Establishment (1)
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
He looked at Xia Hong who had died in front of him.
Chen Daoxuan felt as if there was a stone in his heart.
The Battle of Zhennan Pass, the corpse tide in Guang ’an Prefecture, and the subtle attitude of the Qianyuan Sword Sect towards Cangzhou over the years.
All of this was like a cloud of fog that shrouded Chen Daoxuan’s mind.
If his guess was correct, this Xia Hong should be a spy placed by the Xuan Qing Dao League in the Infinite Star Sea.
In fact, it was not unusual for the major factions to plant spies in each other’s territory.
Since the Xuan Qing Dao League could place spies in the Infinite Star Sea, the Qian Yuan Sword Sect could naturally place spies in the Xuan Qing Dao League’s territory.
It would depend on whose methods were better.
However, judging from the situation where the Qianyuan Sword Sect was suppressing the two opposing sects, it was obvious that the Qianyuan Sword Sect was a level higher.
Chen Daoxuan was not worried about this.
He only felt that the words that this Xia Hong said before his death seemed to have a point.
All of you must die…”
Chen Daoxuan raised his head and pointed at the ground. Was it the zombie tide in Guang ‘an Prefecture? Or Daoist Master Shenjue?”
He shook his head.
Chen Daoxuan, who didn’t know what she meant, threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind.
The information he had was too little to analyze.
But one thing was certain.
If he wanted to deal with all of this, he could only strengthen his own strength.
One day, the Chen family would develop to the point where they could rival or even be stronger than the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.
These schemes and plots were all useless in the face of absolute strength.
Thinking of this…
Chen Daoxuan silently put away the light purple photographic stone in his hand and walked out of the cell.
According to the rules, he had to report the death of a commander of the western defense alliance army.
And what he held in his hand was the absolute evidence that Xia Hong was a spy-
With this evidence in hand, no matter what, Chen Daoxuan, as the commander of the alliance army, had not done anything wrong. Instead, he had done something meritorious.
It was just that Xia Hong died too early.
There were still too many things that he had not told her.
However, after thinking about it carefully, since the Mysterious Dao League dared to plant spies in the Infinite Star Sea, how could they not have a backup plan?
Even if Xia Hong was sent to the Qianyuan Sword Sect, it would be difficult to squeeze out any valuable information.
He walked out of the dungeon.
Chen Daoxuan looked at the bright sunshine in the sky and his mood gradually eased.
Right now, the most important thing for the Chen Family was to ensure the stable operation of the Seaview Immortal City.
He was so eager for quick success that he would definitely cause chaos in the development of Guanhai Immortal City in a short period of time.
But Chen Daoxuan believed it.
As long as the cultivators staying in the Seaview Immortal City were sure that spirit stone coins could be exchanged for spirit stones, there would not be much problem with its circulation in the Seaview Immortal City.
In the end, spirit stone coins were only equivalent to silver notes in ancient times in his previous life.
It was fundamentally different from modern currency that used credit as collateral.
In order to ensure the smooth operation of the Seaview Immortal City, other than the active trade, there was another important factor, which was the protection of martial strength.
This point.
The Chen family was lacking.
Currently, the Seaview Immortal City’s military strength was completely dependent on the western defense alliance army and Chen Daoxuan’s strength, which was comparable to a Zifu Disciple.
The other Chen Clan cultivators were completely useless here.
What Chen Daoxuan needed to do next was to increase the strength of the other cultivators of the Chen family.
If it wasn’t for the fact that Primordial Enlightenment had broken through to the second level and gained the new function of “preaching”, it would have been impossible for him to have such a powerful ability.
Chen Daoxuan planned to use ten years or even a hundred years as a unit to slowly strengthen the Chen family’s hard power.
But now, it had the function of preaching.
He believed that this time would be shortened by more than ten times.
Because he was a classic example.
Shuanghu Island.
Chen Daoxuan looked at Chen Daochu and Chen Daolan and said with a smile,””! originally thought that Dao Chu would reach Foundation Establishment a year earlier than you. I didn’t expect the two of you to reach the threshold of Foundation Establishment at the same time.”
Hearing this.
Chen Daolan raised her head slightly, her pretty face filled with an uncontrollable smile.
” Young Clan Leader,” Chen Daochu said in annoyance,” I was dragged down by the heavy research and development tasks in the laboratory. You just let me finish the paper money, and now you want me to modify the Melting Spirit Stove and the centrifugal wall breaker. There’s also that spiritual pressure device, and lay the spiritual energy network of Shuanghu Island…”
Chen Daochu’s mouth was like a laser gun as he kept scolding.
Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan shook his head and said with a smile,””Those who are capable do more work. The notes you made last time were very good. Not only did they have first-class anti-counterfeit capabilities, but they were also easy to manufacture. Most importantly, you even invented the matching banknote detector.”
“But you gave me too many tasks at once. Didn’t you say that the purpose of establishing the magical equipment research institute was to research high-grade ling armor and war magical equipment?”
Chen Daochu complained and asked curiously.
“Yes, but there’s no need to study it at the moment,”
Chen Daoxuan paused.” The Qian Yuan Sword Sect’s military merit exchange jade slip has the inheritance of second-level superior-grade spiritual armor for exchange. If we can spend money, let’s spend money to buy it first.
If we can’t spend money, we’ll study it ourselves.”
Hearing this.
Chen Daochu nodded in understanding.
As one of the higher-ups of the Chen family, he knew very well how terrifying the family’s ability to earn money was.
The Chen family’s current financial resources mainly came from three sources.
The first was naturally the trade with the eastern defense zone, which could also be called military supplies trade.
The second was the pill shops and magic tool shops in Guang ‘an City and Ling Zhou City. Although the profits from this part were not as high as the military supplies trade, it was better than the long-term profits.
The third part was the benefits of the Seaview Immortal City.
The benefits of Guanhai Immortal City could be divided into two parts. One part was the profits of their own clan’s property, and the other part was the taxes of other businesses.
Although the profits from Guanhai Immortal City were not as good as the military supplies trade, it still exceeded the profits from Chen Family’s businesses in Guang ‘an Prefecture Immortal City and Ling Zhou Immortal City.
Moreover…
In the future, as the Sea-viewing Immortal City continued to grow, this immortal city would become the Chen family’s most important foundation and foreign trade window.
This was also the reason why Chen Daoxuan had spent so much effort to change its trading currency.
It seemed like there was no need to implement spirit stone coins now.
However, because the Immortal City was small, there was less resistance and it was easier to supervise.
Otherwise, when Guanhai Immortal City developed to the point where it was comparable to Guang ‘an City or even bigger.
By then, the impact and difficulty of regulation caused by changing the currency would be much greater.
If one does not think far ahead, he will have immediate worries.
If Chen Daoxuan was an ordinary Chen clansman, of course, he didn’t need to consider such a long-term plan. He only needed to focus on improving his strength.
However, he was the clan leader of the Chen Clan. His decision would affect the future development of the clan.
He had no choice but to make plans for the long-term development of his family.
“I didn’t expect that in the blink of an eye, the two of you would be at the Foundation Establishment realm. Time really flies.”
Chen Daoxuan looked at Chen Chu and Chen Daolan and sighed.
“Yeah,”
Chen Daolan nodded.” Now that I think about the days we spent in the courtyard of the Red Copper Cave, it felt like a dream.”
“Hehe.”
Chen Daochu laughed foolishly.
“It will get better and better in the future.”
Chen Daoxuan smiled and said,” I’ve already told you what you need to pay attention to when you’re building your foundation. Not only do you have the Foundation Building Pill, but you also have a second-grade Creation White Lotus, a life-bound magical treasure.
As long as you don’t mess around, there won’t be any problems with foundation establishment. As for the spirit vein for foundation establishment, go to Seaview Immortal City.
1 will give my spiritual residence in the Seaview Immortal City to the two of you as foundation establishment.”
“The clan’s spirit vein also has a second grade. Why don’t I build my foundation in the clan’s spirit vein?”
Chen Dailian hesitated.
“No, let me go to the clan’s spirit vein to build my foundation. Let Dao Lian go to the Sea-viewing Immortal City. I’m afraid that she doesn’t cultivate seriously and will have an accident when building her foundation.”
“Who are you saying isn’t cultivating seriously?”
Chen Daolan glared at him.
“Alright, stop arguing! Are you breaking through to the Zifu Disciple Realm? A grade-3 spirit meridian isn’t even enough for two Aura Refining cultivators like you to reach Foundation Establishment?”
Chen Daoxuan waved his hand,” Listen to me, go to Seaview Immortal City. I will personally protect you.””
Hearing this.
Chen Daolan and Chen Daochu looked at each other and said in unison,””Yes, Young Clan Leader.”
The next day.
Chen Daolan and Chen Daochu were ready to follow Chen Daoxuan to Seaview Immortal City.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xianhe rushed over.
Seeing Chen Xianhe, everyone bowed.
“Thirteenth Uncle.”
“Old Patriarch!”
“Yes,”
Chen Xianhe smiled and nodded. Then he said angrily,” You two little fellows,
Foundation Establishment is such a big thing. If Chen Daolin didn’t tell me, 1 would still be in the dark.”
“Cough cough, Thirteenth Uncle, this is not a big deal…”
“Isn’t it a big deal that our Chen family has produced a second and third Foundation Establishment cultivator?”
Chen Xianhe seemed to be hinting at something.” I see that you’ve been having a good time recently and have forgotten about everything.”
Seeing Chen Daoxuan being reprimanded by the old clan leader, Chen Daochu and Chen Daolan covered their mouths and wanted to laugh, but they didn’t dare to.
“Thirteenth Uncle is right.”
Seeing this, Chen Daoxuan could only smile bitterly.
After they finished speaking.
Chen Daoxuan used his flying sword to carry Chen Xianhe and the other two to Seaview Immortal City.
The sea-viewing immortal city’s flight restriction array was ineffective against cultivators above the foundation establishment stage. This was quite similar to the Ling Zhou immortal city.
They flew all the way to Chen Daoxuan’s spiritual residence in Seaview Immortal City.
The light descended.
Chen Daoxuan pointed at the two main spiritual eyes in the spiritual house and said,””The two of your foundations are located in your spiritual eyes.
I’ve already set up soundproofing and defensive formations in those two spirit eyes. In addition, I’m guarding them from the outside, so no one will disturb you during the foundation establishment process.”
“Yes, Young Clan Leader!”
Chen Daochu and Chen Daolan cupped their hands gratefully.
He watched as Chen Daolian and Chen Daoguo entered the secret room to enter seclusion and build their foundation.
Chen Daoxuan turned around and looked at Chen Xianhe,’”‘Thirteenth Uncle, do you have something to say to me?”
Chen Daoxuan was sensitive enough to tell from Chen Xianhe’s attitude that he had something to say.
Chen Xianhe looked at Chen Daoxuan meaningfully and said,””l heard that you made a new kind of talisman money in Guanhai Immortal City to replace the transaction of spirit stones in the immortal city?”
“That is true.”
Chen Daoxuan nodded.
“Dao Xuan.”
Chen Xianhe warned,” This kind of talisman money can only be used within Guanhai Immortal City. It must not be used outside, not even within Guang ‘an Prefecture!”
After saying that, she stared at him without blinking.
“My Chen family…I’m still too weak. Other than you, I have no one else to rely on.”
“I understand, Thirteenth Uncle.”
Chen Daoxuan nodded heavily..
