Chapter 636: Breakthrough to Taoist Master!
If you want to get rich, build roads first.
Although this is an extraordinary world, with all kinds of great powers entrenched, hundreds of schools of thought, incense, Taoism, demons, ghosts, etc., no matter how many there are, the population is the primary productive force. Shen Ping has modern thinking and knows this very well.
Only when the population increases can more geniuses be born and more incense will be gathered, and the mountain gods, river gods, dragon gods, etc. of the incense Shinto will be stronger.
No one.
Just having gods is of no use.
Therefore, when focusing on cultivation and development, the main direction of Changzhou and Jinzhou is to build roads, promote fertility, and develop the economy.
And Shen Ping is in charge.
Demons and evil spirits simply do not dare to infiltrate and cause chaos.
At the same time, he will not involve other state capitals and develop his own territory safely.
As land, waterways, inns and other transportation become more and more developed, the number of people pouring in from various states is increasing day by day. In just a hundred years, the number of people in Jinzhou Prefecture alone has exceeded 2 million. This is because Jinzhou This is caused by the government having too little farmland.
Fortunately, the development of commerce allows many people to maintain the most basic food and clothing.
But after all, agriculture was the mainstay in ancient times, and even the extraordinary world was no exception. After all, those demons knew how to crowd into places with a large population after having enough food.
So Shen Ping directly used his supreme supernatural power to open up a continent in the world where the magic weapon was rewarded, and used it to grow various crops to increase production and supply such a large population.
Except Golden State.
The population of a large state in Changzhou is even more exaggerated. After thousands of years of recuperation and reproduction, it has exceeded the ten million mark. This is a state, which is equivalent to one-sixth of the population of Kyushu!
Among them, Changzhou City is even more lively and prosperous than the imperial capital, with a permanent population of more than four million. The city has expanded one round after another, but there are still many people coming here.
Shen Ping could only build an acropolis to channel this huge population.
...
Another two hundred years passed.
It has been three hundred years since the road was built.
The transportation throughout Jinzhou and Changzhou is extremely developed. There are roads from the state capital to villages and towns, and even to tourist attractions in major mountains. There are also daily patrol guards for maintenance, including mountain gods, river gods, and land. Waiting for care.
However, the layout experts behind other state capitals were not stupid. They immediately realized the horror of this phenomenon, so they continuously sent soldiers to harass and followed suit.
It's just that they are not as hands-on and friendly to the people as Shen Ping, so they just learned a hollow way. The more the population grows, the more ruthless the exploitation becomes. In the end, they become wedding dresses for Changzhou and Jinzhou.
And as the population prospers and grows.
More and more monastic geniuses were born.
In the Four Great Dao Temples of Songguan, Baiyun, Qinglin, and Shuiyun, the number of Youdao Masters alone now exceeds 5,000. The number of Youdao Masters is less, only a few hundred. But you must know that even in the imperial capital, There are no more than a hundred True Lords of Youdao.
As for the Void-Returning Earth Immortal, there is currently no such thing. The main reason is that the time is too short.
They don't want Shen Ping to be like that.
It's all about practicing step by step. No matter how qualified you are, it still takes time to accumulate.
Princess Mansion.
While enjoying the familiar meat rolls, Princess Jinzhen reported on the development and training of the naval forces in the two states and the army, "Husband, now that the population of the people has increased, the number of the army has soared to 500,000, and the navy has Maintaining 300,000, plus some auxiliary troops, as well as patrols, government offices, etc. that need to be maintained in various places, the total number of people exceeds one million, and the annual food and salary is a big expense! "
“Financially it’s almost too much!”
Shen Ping said casually, "Then issue bonds. The merchants in the jurisdiction are all rich. Don't let them just save money without spending."
As he spoke, he kept stirring at the palace gate.
After such a long time, Princess Jinzhen has long been accustomed to Shen Ping's power. Her eyes lit up, "Yes, why didn't I expect that these merchants like to save money? Yes, they have to spend it so that they can increase their income." Finance and taxation.”
"My husband is still smart."
Shen Ping smiled lightly, but he knew that in the long run, as the population continued to skyrocket, this trick would not work, and he must be prepared to cannibalize other state capitals.
After all, the soldiers who have been raised for so long have to be used.
So twenty years later.
Then he launched a war and began to attack the state capital near Changzhou.
The imperial court sent envoys to inquire.
Princess Jinzhen responded directly, saying that she was slaying evil spirits.
The court had nothing to say.
This is the advantage of having the support of royal blood.
The war lasted for hundreds of years.
The three states near Changzhou and Jinzhou were directly cannibalized by Shen Ping, which greatly alleviated the pressure of population growth and continued to recuperate.
Got a bracelet.
Shen Ping can come and go when he wants, and the initiative is completely in his own hands. This world of supreme stone tablets has become a place for him to cultivate strong men, unlike before, where he had to worry about his own life all the time. Danger.
Although he is competing for the supreme stone tablet and can become above the Taoist, that is, above the saints, in the Hunyuan realm like Pangu, he is not interested now.
...
Tsk tsk.
The top of Jiehaifeng Mountain.
Colorful vortexes condense out of thin air.
Soon Shen Ping's figure slowly appeared.
Fluctuations are sensed.
The black-robed Hades Emperor appeared, and after seeing Shen Ping, its face was full of shock, "Shen Ping, you, you got a yellow bracelet?"
Shen Ping nodded, feeling extremely relaxed. He took a deep breath. The familiar smell made him feel happy, "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my destiny!"
Enter the world of yellow palaces.
He was trembling, fearing that he would really fall inside, but now he has continuously obtained the authority of the yellow bracelet, and he has understood the entire top swordsmanship, and also understood a trace of the origin of swordsmanship.
Rumble.
The black-robed Hades Emperor was just about to speak.
A vast aura appeared in the sky above the entire Jiehai Peak, and then the vortex opened, and the origin of the endless realm descended.
"This, this is the origin of Taoist breakthrough!"
"How is it possible that in less than five thousand years, we have directly broken through to the Taoist Master?"
Master Ming Huangyin felt incredible.
And at this moment.
The endless source comes.
Shen Ping was absorbing it crazily. His Tao body was very huge. At this moment, absorbing this origin caused the Tao body to continuously transform. At the same time, the height of the Tao body also expanded crazily, and soon it reached a height of one million kilometers.
It's even bigger than Jiehai Peak.
Fortunately, this is in the sea of realms. If it were in the realm of immortality, other immortal realms would be able to see his majestic and terrifying body.
powerful.
Too strong.
Shen Ping only has this feeling now, as if he can pick the stars and the moon with his hands. When he was practicing before, he always heard that great powers can pick the stars with his hands, but now the Tao body is so huge that even the planets are small in his eyes.
The origin of the endless realm is much vaster than the origin of the immortal realm, with no end in sight.
The arrival of the origin lasted for dozens of hours before slowly disappearing.
He turned around and looked towards the Immortal Realm.
In the past, I couldn't see the outline of the immortal realm at all, but now it's different. The huge Tao body can see the edge of the realm, covered with layers of thin film. Although it is a million kilometers high, it is less than This immortal realm is still very small.
As the Tao body shrinks.
He reappeared on the top of Jiehai Peak.
"Congratulations, master!"
Master Ming Huangyin stepped forward to congratulate.
Shen Ping said with a half-smile, "Master?"
Ming Huangyin said: "My master has become a Taoist master and is qualified to control the Hunyuan treasure of Jie Haifeng. He can naturally become my master."
"Although the Lord of Jiehai Peak was at the third step of the Dao Lord Realm back then, he still belonged to the Dao Lord Realm."
Listen to this.
Shen Ping pondered.
There are also strong and weak Tao Master realms. He has just become a Tao Master and is the most ordinary one, so he asked, "Yin, what is the difference between this Tao Master realm?"
"Master, there is no substantive distinction between Taoist masters. It mainly depends on the degree of control of one's own origin of the great avenue of heaven and earth. The degree is divided into the first step, the second step and the third step. After completely mastering an origin, one can achieve success. Hunyuan Realm.”
"In the Endless Realm, the Hunyuan Realm is also a transcendent person. It is a legendary strong man and is rarely seen. The master has never seen a transcendent person. He only knows that there is such a realm from some ancient ruins and inheritance. The supreme swordsmanship left behind by the supreme stone tablet was left behind by the powerful ones in the Hunyuan Realm.”
Shen Ping suddenly understood, then smiled and said, "The Hunyuan realm is too far away from me. Now that I have become a Taoist master, I can finally be at ease."
Ming Huangyin said, "This is natural. The master has Boundary Sea Peak and Chaos Ring, two Hunyuan treasures to protect him. Even if other Taoist masters in the Endless Realm know that Jiehai Peak is here, they can't do anything to you, Master. The entire Endless Realm, As long as the master doesn't take the initiative to provoke those powerful Tao masters, he can basically run amok."
Shen Ping laughed, looked at the mountainside of Jiehai Peak, and his face wrinkled slightly.
