In terms of recruiting strong people, Shen Xiang must not fall behind the Fire God Temple.
"We just want them to be our retainers, not disciples of the Dragon Subduing Sect, to prevent someone from taking advantage of the situation. And we must keep a close eye on this aspect. As for the welfare, it's better than the Fire God Temple. I can afford the elixirs!" Shen Xiang said.
Li Baojun nodded: "If there are Hunyuan Pills and Feisheng Pills as rewards, we will definitely be able to attract many powerful people. The Fire God Temple uses high-grade earth-level pills and a small amount of heaven-level pills. If the headmaster can really have a large number of high-grade pills, I think our followers will soon be able to grow stronger."
"That's no problem. Wait for me for a while..." Shen Xiang originally planned to start thinking of ways to improve his cultivation, but now it seems that he has to refine a large number of Hunyuan Pills first. As for the Ascension Pills, he will let Li Baojun refine them.
He returned to the dragon vein. Now he had to condense a large amount of creative divine liquid to copy a large amount of heaven-grade medicinal materials.
The medicinal materials for the Heaven-grade pills require a lot of Creative Divine Fluid to be quickly copied. For example, the two main medicinal materials for the Hunyuan Pill, Shen Xiang could only copy one by condensing the amount for three days, which means ten copies in a month. If it were other Earth-grade pills, he could make a lot in a month.
But he is already very satisfied. If it were other people, it would take an unknown amount of time to grow the main medicinal materials for ten portions of Hunyuan Pills. Moreover, they would have to take careful care of the plants, which was very energy-consuming.
"If I refine to the limit, I can refine four pills in one furnace, and ten furnaces can only produce forty pills. However, it is enough to recruit forty people for half a year. Giving them one Hunyuan Pill every six months is a very cost-effective deal."
Although Shen Xiang ate Hunyuan Pills like eating beans, for others, it was already very good to have one Hunyuan Pill every year.
"The Fire God Temple lost a large amount of elixirs in the last provocation. Now they are using elixirs to recruit people to join them. It seems that they will not attack for a while, unless they gather their strength and have a large amount of elixirs. They will dare to take action! The premise is that the immortal king who practices the divine way does not take action. If that immortal king takes the lead in the attack, I am afraid that the Fire God Temple will launch a general attack much earlier." Long Xueyi said.
"Little Brat Dragon, you showed off a few of your skills before. If you take action, can you kill that Immortal King?" Shen Xiang asked.
"No, unless I am given a few decades more, I can't beat that guy. The reason why I was able to kill the Dragon Slayers was because those guys were too weak... In fact, a big reason was that they were scared by me." Long Xueyi smiled and said, "So sometimes bragging during a battle is also a very powerful tactic."
"You also know that you are bragging, you are quite self-aware." Shen Xiang laughed: "By the way, are you using the Divine Power? I always feel that when you attack, it seems that there is some other energy hidden!"
"No… If I could use the real divine power, you could take me to the Fire Temple right now and kill the Fire Temple Immortal Lord who was cultivating his spirit. I only used the unformed divine power." Long Xueyi said, "But it's already very powerful. However, you can't use it. It's a unique ability of my White Dragon Clan. Even if the divine power doesn't turn into power, we can still use it to attack."
Shen Xiang nodded and said: "It turns out that you haven't reached that realm yet. Is it really that difficult to enter?"
Long Xueyi responded, "Of course it's difficult, but for me it's just a matter of time. If it's you, it might take longer. You should practice hard now and become a human immortal first. You also need to have more divine power. Otherwise, you will know how much divine power is needed to condense the divine power. It will probably be like when you used that powerful mysterious flame, which will drain your divine power in an instant."
Shen Xiang took a deep breath. He already had a lot of divine power in his sea of consciousness now, but if he wanted to condense the divine power, it would only take a moment. It was conceivable how terrifying the divine power was.
"Once I have the ingredients for the Hunyuan Pill, I will go look for the Heaven-level Pill that can strengthen the soul. I haven't looked for medicinal herbs for a long time, I hope I can find it."
Chen Xiang murmured, closed his eyes, and concentrated on condensing the Divine Liquid of Creation...
Time passed in the blink of an eye. Two months later, Shen Xiang came out of the dragon vein and came to the City Lord's Mansion of Jianglong City. As soon as he arrived here, he sensed dozens of powerful auras here. They were all unfamiliar auras, but in this new emperor, they were considered to be a very strong group of people.
But these auras were very restless and fluctuated from time to time, obviously because of the influence of emotions. Shen Xiang knew that someone must be arguing.
When he arrived at a hall, he saw many powerful men and women, young and old, and their number was much more than he could sense, probably hundreds.
"What's going on?" As soon as Shen Xiang arrived, he saw that there was a lot of noise here, and some people were arguing with red faces, looking like they could start fighting at any time.
Shen Xiang glanced at the people here. They were all strong enough to have passed the seven tribulations of Nirvana. In the past two months, Duan Chong and Li Baojun had indeed recruited some followers.
Most of them looked old and middle-aged, but there were also quite a few who looked young, including two who looked teenagers. The only few women all looked very young. Women definitely paid more attention to appearance than men.
"More than half of them are here to poach talents. They should all be sent by the Fire God Temple." Li Baojun said. It was obvious that he was no longer surprised by such things.
An old man came out and said loudly, "What do you mean by poaching? We just don't want some of our friends to be deceived by you. What's the point of being a disciple of your Jianglong Sect? The headmaster has been suppressed. Although there are powerful elders, they seem to be indifferent to us. Everyone knows that your Jianglong Sect will be destroyed by the Fire God Temple sooner or later. If the Fire God Temple attacks Chenwu Continent, your Jianglong Sect will definitely take action and will definitely let these disciples who joined here die. We just can't bear to see these friends who have practiced hard and are close to ascending to heaven be ruined in your hands."
Duan Chong and Li Baojun had other plans when they let these people who came to persuade them into the City Lord's Mansion. If they could be persuaded to leave, they would be guests not worth recruiting, so Li Baojun and Duan Chong were not worried and let them quarrel here.
"You are the ones who are going to die. The Fire God Temple is colluding with demons and wants to seize the Chenwu Continent! In order to gain the trust of the demons, they allow them to burn, kill and loot in the human domain, but you turn a blind eye and brag about the goodness of the Fire God Temple all day long. Don't you see that the Fire God Temple is being scolded by everyone in the human domain now, and you are still defending the Fire God Temple. You are really a piece of shit." A woman said coldly.
Shen Xiang has already seen that those who were persuaded to leave had already left, and most of the people who stayed here were independent cultivators who could not stand the collusion between the Fire God Temple and the Demon Realm. Even if they did not want the elixirs given by the Dragon Subduing Sect, they would still join the Dragon Subduing Sect.
"When we came here, we had already decided to fight against the Fire God Temple. Our own strength is not enough, so we have to unite many knowledgeable people. We must not let the vicious guys like the Fire God Temple get the dragon veins of Chenwu Continent. It will only be a disaster for the future Emperor Tian." An old man sitting on a chair, closing his eyes, said lightly.
"You guys are here to persuade them, have you received benefits from the Fire God Temple? Or are you worried that you will be ruthlessly killed by the people here in the future on the battlefield, so you are here to persuade them to leave?" Shen Xiang suddenly said: "Those who are not from our Jianglongmen are all on one side. Let me see who is there? Actually, he did something against his conscience. Don't you know that it is because of the Fire God Temple that the demons can invade the human domain in large numbers? Even if there are forces that want to fight against the demons, they will be blocked by the Fire God Temple. You all know this!"
"I will remember your faces. You better leave Dragon City immediately. If I see you again, I will kill you without mercy!"
Shen Xiang's voice was filled with murderous intent: "Before I change my mind, get out of here!"
Some people present knew this person who suddenly appeared. He was Wang Qiongjin, the Immortal King of the Fire God Temple. He had been defeated by this person when he was refining an elixir before, and it was a miserable defeat.
A person who is good at alchemy does have a very high status in a force, because everyone saw that the two elders, Li Baojun and Duan Chong, were very respectful to him.
