To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

Chapter 347: 194: Discussion on Extermination of the Clan – 2

Having such a disciple familiar with military affairs by his side ensures that there won’t be any problems with the army after Zhou Qing leaves.

“Alright.”

Lu Yuan nodded, having no objection to this, and instructed, “Make sure to keep your departure a secret; it cannot be leaked. In destroying the Iron Sword Sect, we must be cautious and not reveal our identities.”

Iron Sword Sect may seem like an independent sect, but in reality, its establishment in Yuzhang Prefecture and occupying a mansion in the county could not have been achieved without the support of Liuyang Sect.

This was evident from the fact that when the Black Wind Gang wreaked havoc in Luling Prefecture more than a decade ago, Liuyang Sect’s Sect Leader Yin Huixuan quickly intervened.

Thus, in a way, annihilating this sect is equivalent to slapping Liuyang Sect in the face.

And Liuyang Sect is a prominent Innate Sect within the Innate Sects.

Yin Huixuan, a powerful expert at the second realm of Innate, is not someone to be trifled with.

Lu Yuan is going there to seek wealth, not trouble for himself.

If Yin Huixuan were to come knocking at his door, even he would find it a huge headache.

Therefore, the operation to destroy the Iron Sword Sect must be done discreetly, and their identities must not be revealed to outsiders.

Having been mingling in the Jianghu battlefield for so many years, Zhou Qing has become an old fox who naturally understands this principle. He nods and says, “Master, rest assured, I know my place.”

Lu Yuan slightly nodded: “Then there’s nothing more to say.”

He believes that his disciple will not disappoint him in this regard.

“If that’s the case, I will take my leave to inform the Five Poisons Sect and hand over the military affairs,” Zhou Qing requests permission to leave at this point.

The matter of annihilating the Iron Sword Sect has already thrown his heart into turmoil. At this moment, he desperately needs to return and quietly ponder matters while preparing for his revenge.

“Go ahead,” Lu Yuan waved his hand.

Zhou Qing bowed and took his leave.

Watching his disciple leave, Lu Yuan remained seated, supporting himself against the table, and continued to contemplate.

This time, in addition to the financial gains from annihilating the Iron Sword Sect, there were other significant benefits such as the Divine Blood Elixir and the Divine Blood Variant.

Near Luling, there is a Dragon Mountain, which ranks eighth among the seventy-two blessed lands of Daoism.

And this mountain is the exact location of the Iron Sword Sect’s Mountain Gate.

Occupying this place, the Divine Blood Variants raised by the Iron Sword Sect can absorb a much higher level of immortal spirit qi compared to other spiritual mountains and blessed lands.

With sufficient immortal spirit qi nourishment, the resulting spiritual blood provided by the Divine Blood Variants would naturally be greater in quantity.

Consequently, after annihilating the Iron Sword Sect, the Divine Blood Elixir that Lu Yuan can obtain should be more than what he got from the Seven Star Sect.

“I eliminated the Seven Star Sect last time and obtained a total of twenty-six Pure Water Profound Pills from them. This time, after destroying the Iron Sword Sect, I should be able to get at least thirty or forty, right?

Considering the Divine Blood Variant, I should be able to refine even more directly after killing it.

Gaining fifty or sixty should be achievable.

With these Divine Blood Elixirs, I should be able to cultivate three or four top-notch disciples.”

As his influence expands, Lu Yuan’s expectations for his disciples’ strength gradually increase.

In today’s chaotic world, it’s not enough to have only one top-notch expert guarding an area.

But now, including Wuling Prefecture, he has nearly half of the territory in six prefectures.

Such a vast territory, but without enough people to guard it.

With just him and Zhou Qing, they can only manage to oversee two or three prefectures at most. More than half of the territory remains without a top-notch expert to guard it.

At present, Lu Yuan relies on the top-notch experts sent by the Nanhai Sect to help maintain his territory.

However, the people of Nanhai Sect will eventually leave and cannot possibly help and stay permanently.

Moreover, even though Yan Wangqiu regards them as allies and is willing to spare some manpower to help, they are ultimately outsiders and not as trustworthy as one’s own people.

Hence, the matter of cultivating disciples is becoming increasingly urgent.

Lu Yuan wants to destroy the Iron Sword Sect not only for the silver taels but also for their highly coveted Divine Blood Elixir.

If he can seize the Iron Sword Sect’s centuries of accumulation to help him cultivate three or four top-notch disciples, the situation of insufficient personnel to guard various territories will undoubtedly be greatly alleviated and improved.

By then, Lu Yuan will be able to let his disciples take charge on their own.

He, on the other hand, can save time to devote himself to cultivation.

So no matter how you look at it, attacking the Iron Sword Sect is highly beneficial to him, so much so that it’s a must-do.

“However, speaking of Divine Blood Variants, I’ve already been raising that Pure Water Xuan Niu for more than a year.

But despite eating my century-old spiritual medicine for more than a year, living a life of luxury, it has yet to produce any spiritual blood for me.

With such a low production rate, raising it serves little purpose.”

As soon as Lu Yuan thought of the Pure Water Xuan Niu he was still raising in Mount Yuanluo, his brow furrowed involuntarily.

At the time, Feng Zhijie, one of the Seven Star Sect’s three Elders, had mentioned that due to the increasingly scarce essence of the sun and the moon that could be absorbed from Mount Yuanluo, the amount of spiritual blood the Pure Water Xuan Niu could produce each year was also dwindling.

This, in turn, resulted in a sharp decline in the number of Pure Water Profound Pills that could be obtained by the Seven Star Sect each year.

By the time Lu Yuan attacked the Seven Star Sect, it could only produce one or two pills annually.

However, it was also because of this situation that the Pure Water Xuan Niu was brought out of the Seven Star Sect’s main altar during the attack.
