Chapter 159: Publicity Market
Three mirage cloud python corpses, one mirage cloud python baby, 8 second-level fog spirit grasses, a small fog breath stone vein, and a second-level high-grade natural maze.
If strictly speaking, the woman with the red snake tattoo can be considered one of the gains this time.
Any one of these gains alone is enough to make the foundation-building monks go crazy.
At the same time, Wugu’s excellent conditions in all aspects have also laid a solid foundation for the construction of the micro-market.
Next, everyone also made a rough division of these three valleys.
The first valley is located on the outermost edge of the three valleys, with the largest area and flat and empty terrain.
Therefore, after discussion, it was decided to use this place as the main body of a micro-market and build shops and other buildings for daily transactions.
The second valley is slightly smaller than the first valley, but the soil here is moist and it is also where the Mist Breath Stone and Spirit Mist Grass exist, so the aura environment is better.
After discussion, everyone decided to cultivate a spiritual field here and open caves on the surrounding rock walls.
These spiritual fields and caves are most desired by casual cultivators from all walks of life. They can be rented or sold to obtain a large amount of spiritual stones.
As elders, everyone present will be assigned a certain share and occupy a part of the spiritual field and cave.
Whether it is for your own residence or use, or for sale or lease to other monks, you can freely arrange it.
However, no matter how we arrange it, that is a matter for later. The most important thing now is how to open the market.
First of all, in the first valley, it is necessary to make a preliminary layout and build shops, so that the city can at least take shape.
This matter was left to Xie Zhouhe, who was well-connected.
Secondly, the promotion of the micro-market is also particularly important. Only when there are enough monks coming and going can the market develop smoothly.
And this thing requires everyone's efforts.
Wei Hanshan, Xie Zhouhe, Liu Chengzhou, Yuan Zhong, the female monk, Meng Yueshan and Lin Yuan returned to the vicinity of Baihefang City together and began to use their own connections to spread the mini-fang market.
They are all ninth-level Qi refining experts. They have quite a reputation in the surrounding area and have made many friends over the years.
Therefore, when they started to promote the micro market at the same time, they immediately aroused the interest of many casual cultivators.
Especially during the recent period, Baihefang City has been affected by the war, and prices have fluctuated wildly, which has long made people complain.
Therefore, when Wugufang City began to be promoted, it immediately attracted the attention of many people and brought hope to many down-and-out casual cultivators.
However, they also need to face a problem, that is, how to travel dozens of days to the relatively more dangerous Wugufang City.
There are only two solutions to this problem.
First, clear the dangers along the way and create a safe path.
Secondly, there is something in Wugufang City that makes everyone flock to it, giving the casual cultivator enough motivation to go there.
But no matter which one it is, it is not easy to achieve, which is a big challenge for everyone.
As for these problems, Zhou Daocheng naturally did not worry too much and left them all to others.
As for himself, he stayed in the Foggy Valley to further improve the environment here.
The first is this second-level fog formation!
Although since entering the foggy valley, Zhou Daocheng seems to have command of this formation like an arm, turning his hands into clouds, turning his hands into clouds, almost everything is under control.
But in reality, his control over the formation is very low.
After all, he is only a first-level high-grade formation mage, and his control over the formation and depth of his understanding are far from enough.
Therefore, he must further deepen his control and ensure that the entire Foggy Valley is under his control.
But this matter is very difficult. Given his level of formation skills, it is impossible to jump directly from the level of a first-level high-level formation master to a second-level high-level formation master.
Therefore, all he can do is to use time to polish it, continue to figure out the lines and changes of the formation, and deepen his understanding of this formation.
And this realization lasted for a whole month.
Sitting cross-legged on the highest mountain in the foggy valley, overlooking all the changes in the formation, letting the clouds and mist envelop the spiritual energy flow freely, and feeling the rhythm of it.
After many days, when he opened his eyes again, a deep color flashed in his eyes, and the mysterious lines were engraved in his mind.
When he calmed down and came to his senses, he was surprised to find out!
He was originally only at the peak of the eighth level of Qi Refining, but he had successfully broken through to the ninth level of Qi Refining without knowing it, and was completely stable!
Zhou Daocheng chuckled and murmured to himself: "I didn't expect that this realization would take so long. Fortunately, the surrounding spiritual energy is rich, otherwise I would have starved to death here."
But the gain this time was not small. Although his formation skills were not greatly improved, it gave him a deeper understanding of the mist formation in front of him.
If we say before, he could only control 5% of this formation.
At this moment, his control strength can reach about 20%.
Don't underestimate this 20%, because this represents 20% of the power of a second-order high-grade formation.
At least in Zhou Daocheng's opinion, just 20% of the control power can give him the strength to compete with the strong foundation builders in the formation.
Of course, the premise is that the opponent is not an array mage.
Otherwise, Zhou Daocheng himself could not guarantee whether he would be directly robbed of his control by a more powerful array master.
Even more, the other party only needed to find a loophole in this natural array to break into it directly, completely out of Zhou Daocheng's control.
Of course, this was due to the natural deficiency of the array and had nothing to do with Zhou Daocheng's control.
So the second thing he had to do was to repair the loophole in this array - that is, the entrance they had entered before.
This place was obviously an extremely important array eye in this array, and it should be suppressed with a powerful "force", but there was only a small hill, which became the biggest flaw of this second-level upper-grade array.
In order to solve this flaw, Zhou Daocheng thought of many ways, but still could not solve it.
In the end, he found the woman with the red snake tattoo and used a second-level lower-grade magic weapon to suppress it here, which made up for this loophole.
Therefore, the power of the entire array was strengthened by another 30%, and Zhou Daocheng's control over the array was slightly reduced.
If the previous natural mist formation was a fake second-grade upper-grade formation, then this time, it was a top-level formation that truly reached the peak of the second-grade upper-grade.
Even if a second-grade formation master came, it would be difficult to break the formation from the outside, let alone easily take away Zhou Daocheng's control.
