Chapter 2942: Life is not easy
More than half a month ago, when the army of the South Gate returned to Lingxiao Palace from Qingyang Temple, Yang Kai handed over Qianhuan Dream Butterfly to him and brought him back. Yang Kai attached great importance to Qianhuan Dream Butterfly because he himself benefited a lot from Qianhuan Dream.
The Thousand Illusion Dreamland will definitely become the foundation of Lingxiao Palace. Compared with it, the Tianyin Hall arranged with the Tianyin Treasure Box as the center seems much smaller in function.
However, the Thousand Illusion Dream is not static. Every warrior entering it may encounter different illusions. The illusion is enough to be fake, but it is derived from reality. The true and false are hard to distinguish, but the benefits gained in the illusion are that people can get considerable improvement.
Especially Qianhuan Dreamland has the magical effect of stretching time, which is extremely precious. Chi Yue and others are Yang Kai’s friends and relatives, so the first group of candidates to enter Qianhuan Dreamland, Hua Qingsi chose them. Facts have proved that each of them has gained something in Qianhuan Dreamland.
Qianhuan Dream is a huge treasure, and it is impossible to mine it all at once. You can only gradually explore it and slowly.
After chatting with Hua Qingsi for a few words, Yang Kai and Zhu Lie set off.
The Liuyun Shuttle was extremely fast, and one person and one dragon stayed inside the shuttle and broke through the air.
Zhu Lie was puzzled by Yang Kai's behavior.
"Zhu Qing is trapped in the frozen soil, why do you want to go to the Lilong Palace?"
Yang Kai looked at him while controlling Liuyun Shuo and asked, "Have you ever been to the frozen soil?"
Zhu Lie shook his head: "I have rarely left Dragon Island since I was born. The dragon clan is not allowed to show up often. I have heard of the name of frozen soil and have never been there."
"I haven't been there either." Yang Kai chuckled and asked again: "Then do you know where to go to find your sister?"
Zhu Lie continued to shake his head: "I don't know. I have tried to contact her these days, but I have never received a response. She is afraid it is true..."
Yang Kai said: "If you want to see someone in your life, if you want to see the corpse when you die, don't draw conclusions before you see her."
"With that being said, but..."
"No, but!" Yang Kai glanced at him sharply, "Neither you and I have been to the frozen soil, nor do you know where to go to find your sister, but there is someone who can help."
Zhu Lie thought for a while and said, "That person is in Lilong Palace?"
"It's quite smart!" Yang Kai grinned, "If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. Although it will take some time to find that person when we go to the Dragon Palace to find that person, it is better than diving into the frozen soil and blindly looking for it." After a pause, Yang Kai said, "But that person's status is a bit unusual, and you may have to rely on your power at that time."
Zhu Lie sneered: "You can't beat him?"
Yang Kai changed his head and shook his head: "This is not a question of who is strong and who is weak, but a question of courage. If I want that person to accompany me to the frozen soil, he will definitely not be happy. If I use strong words, I am afraid that I will break up with him, it will not be beneficial to finding your sister. But if you can come forward, the matter may be easy to deal with."
"Oh?" Zhu Lie was curious. He didn't know who would be like Yang Kai said, but he didn't ask too much, anyway, he would know when he met.
Lilong Palace has been established for tens of thousands of years. In the Northern Region, it was once known as the four top sects together with Bing Xingu, Wenqing Sect and Mitian Sect, because among these four sects, each of them has a strong man with the third-level mirror of the Emperor.
Li Jiao, the Lord of the Lilong Palace, is a half-demon powerful man with a trace of dragon blood. At its peak, Lilong Palace once surpassed the other three sects and was in a strong limelight, and it was no exception for a while.
However, since the emergence of a Lingxiao Palace in the Northern Region, life in Lilong Palace has been difficult.
No one knows how his palace lord offended Lingxiao Palace. Since last year, 80% of the income in the sect will be paid to Lingxiao Palace every year, and he can only leave only 20% of it.
Li Longgong family has great business, with tens of thousands of disciples of the sect, and only 20% of the income is only 10 million high-grade source crystals. How can such a quantity be consumed? From Li Jiao to ordinary disciples, various benefits suddenly fell from the sky to the ground, and everyone tightened their belts to live.
Because of this, many elders in Lilong Palace were extremely dissatisfied with Lingxiao Palace, and from time to time they would ignite fire in Li Jiao's ear, hoping that he would take him and others to the Lingxiao Palace to avenge his previous shame and avenge his revenge.
Li Jiao did not have the courage. The elders and disciples below didn't know what the background of Lingxiao Palace was, but he knew it very well. Last time he just went to join Ji Ying for fun, but he almost lost his family business. Now, when someone mentioned the three words Lingxiao Palace, he felt so excited that he dared to visit him.
Fortunately, it is not only his unlucky family who is far from the Dragon Palace family, but also the situation of Mitian Sect is similar. The two top sects are now considered brothers and brothers, so they can only hold each other together to keep warm.
On this day, many elders gathered in the Lilong Palace Hall. As before, there were noises in the hall. Many emperors had no corresponding cultivation and calm mind. The entire hall was as noisy as a vegetable market.
This situation was not common before, but it has happened frequently since last year. Many elders can only earn two words - benefits!
The annual income of Lilong Palace is about 50 million high-grade source crystals. If there is no special situation, the entire sect will definitely be endless, which can meet the needs of each elder, and there is still a surplus to expand the inventory of the sect in case of future needs.
But since last year, the number of 50 million has dropped to 10 million, and the problem has been exposed. Every elder wants to gain more benefits for the Lingfeng Hall he controls. Alchemy requires source crystal, weapon refining requires source crystal, and cultivation requires source crystal. Who is willing to suffer a loss?
But there are only 10 million source crystals in total, and it will take another year to maintain it. It will become increasingly rare when it is distributed below.
If there is still Cunyu in the warehouse, it would be fine. At worst, you can open the warehouse of the sect and retrieve the source crystal from it to ease the crisis. However, the problem is that the warehouse of Lilong Palace is basically empty. The sect's accumulation over the years has long been given to the Lingxiao Palace to pay off the debt, and there will be no improvement in the next fifty years.
At this point, the elders gathered in the hall naturally became increasingly reluctant to give in. They all blushed and had a thick neck, and wanted to win the greatest benefit for themselves.
Li Jiao sat upright in the head, listening to the noise below with a gloomy face, without saying a word, and without intention of stopping.
Now he only regrets why he wanted to go to Lingxiao Palace with Ji Ying, and then he went there. He even made a bet with Yang Kai, it would be fine, but he actually put on such a big family business.
The ghost is obsessed with it! Li Jiao sighed and slowly closed his eyes.
At some point, the noise below stopped, and an old man with white hair and beard clasped his fist and said, "Party Lord, disciples cannot practice without elixirs. The operation of my elixir is the top priority of the entire sect. Please also ask the sect master to allocate three million top-grade source crystals as the alchemy cost for the elixir this year."
"Three million? Elder Xu, you're too lion-like, right? There are only 10 million source crystals available every year in the palace, and you actually want three million in one gulp. What do you want us to do? Do you drink the northwest wind?"
"Yes, three million is too much. I think it's better to have 500,000. You can practice without elixirs. It's just a slower speed. It's going to last for these fifty years."
"Fifty years? Fifty years later, the younger generation will be destroyed long ago. Without enough elixir support, how can their potential be discovered? The younger generation of the younger generation of the Dragon Palace will inevitably have huge faults. When the sect is weak, who can bear this responsibility?"
"Brother Xu, don't say so seriously. It's only fifty years. Which one of you and I have practiced for thousands of years? When you were young, you had plenty of elixirs to take? Didn't you still practice to the Emperor's realm?"
"So I am only at the first level. If I had enough elixirs when I was young, I would definitely be more than this level."
After a brief calm, there was another round of quarrel.
Li Jiao finally couldn't bear it anymore and slapped it with anger, and the chair he sat down immediately turned into powder.
The noisy hall suddenly became quiet, and his eyes looked at Li Jiao.
The palace lord was angry, and they did not dare to be arrogant anymore.
"Enough!" Li Jiao glanced over the lower part and gritted his teeth, "I heard you make noise here every day, but I can't come up with a solution. You are all the elders of the Dragon Palace, all the Emperor's realm. How can such noise be like? If you ask the lowly disciples to look at it, how can the majesty be there?"
Everyone was embarrassed to be scolded and all lowered their heads.
Elder Xu from the Dan Room pondered for a moment and said, "Parent Lord, Yuan Jing needs to be solved as soon as possible, otherwise..."
"Don't I know?" Li Jiao glared at him angrily, "I missed the inspection that day and fell into the trap of the little thief, which implicated me from Lilong Palace."
Elder Xu said: "The Palace Master does not have to blame himself too much. The Sect Master Mi did not see any flaws in the matter that day. He can only blame the boy of Lingxiao Palace for being too cunning. As long as the Palace Master remains in the Dragon Palace, I will definitely make a comeback."
A group of elders nodded and agreed.
Li Jiao said: "Anyway, things are already like this. I have a proposal and I hope that many elders can cooperate with each other. If they can be implemented, I will definitely be able to overcome this difficulty."
Elder Xu said: "I wonder what the palace master has to do?"
Li Jiao looked around and coughed lightly and said, "You are all in the Emperor Realm. You have been the elder of the Dragon Palace for more than a year or two. I believe you have some savings on hand. What I mean is... You will first take out your own savings for public use. Even if you borrow them from the palace, you will be able to repay you with your principal and interest after fifty years. You will definitely not suffer any loss. I wonder what you think?"
No one responded, and everyone lowered their heads wherever Li Jiao's eyes passed.
