Chapter 298: Dean Gong’s Invitation
Tiangong Division, meeting room.
"Greetings to the Chief!"
He Shen and other deacons came in one after another, and bowed to Chen Ling, who was sitting in the main seat, wearing a long green robe and looking solemn.
Although they had not seen each other for more than ten days, they could feel that Zhou Ling's temperament was very different from that of the year.
Sitting on the Taishi chair, he gave people a sense of authority without anger.
Although he was young, he already had the aura of a superior.
"Okay, everyone is here, then I will tell you the purpose of calling everyone to this meeting."
Chen Ling sat on the Taishi chair, looked at everyone, and said seriously.
Everyone listened carefully.
Zhou Ling has been the Chief for more than two months, but he has never been so serious.
"Because the beast tide in Anyang Fairy City is getting more and more severe, the consumption of various resources will be greater in the future."
"Next, the supply of other aspects of Tiangong Division must be stopped first."
"Concentrate all forces to support Anyang Fairy City!"
"Does everyone have any opinions?"
Zhou Ling continued.
Everyone looked at each other, and Zheng said in advance, "Zhizheng, now we supply Anyang Immortal City with 460 pills every month."
"Among them, there are 30 third-level pills, 120 second-level pills, and the rest are first-level pills."
"This number is already quite a lot!"
"If you want to increase it, the number is limited!"
After hearing what Zheng said, Lu Yunxi also said, "In terms of runes and treasures, it is roughly the same number."
"If it only relies on the supply of our Qingyun Immortal City, it may not be so easy for Anyang Immortal City to defeat this beast tide."
In the western area of Qingyang Immortal Domain, in addition to Qingyun Immortal City, there are two other fourth-grade immortal cities.
But there is a certain distance from Anyang Immortal City, and it is not so fast to quickly replenish it.
"Based on the current basis, can we increase it by half?"
Zhou Ling asked as he swept his eyes over Zheng and other six hall deacons.
The current situation in Anyang Immortal City, the daily consumption of various materials is a considerable number.
The more abundant the resources, the greater the probability of stopping the beast tide.
Hearing this, Lu Yunxi shook his head and said in a crisp voice, "At most one-fourth."
"One-fourth!"
Zhou Ling picked up the teacup and took a sip of the spiritual tea. If it was only one-fourth, it was obviously not enough.
"Deacons, the war in Anyang Fairy City is urgent now. I want to make some changes to the refining process in Tiangongsi!"
Zhou Ling said in a deep voice.
Then he looked at Deacon Luo and asked, "Deacon Luo, can the Tiangongsi Refining Workshop build a formation spiritual power furnace to speed up the quenching of ore materials, so as to greatly speed up the refining of materials and improve the refining efficiency!"
This idea was a solution that he came up with after observing the workshop refining furnace with the help of [Intermediate Analysis].
With the help of formations, materials can be better refined and the spirituality in the materials can be locked.
And this furnace is several times larger than the original refining furnace, and the amount and speed of refining raw materials will be doubled.
Originally, the treasures produced by Tiangongsi could be supplied, so there was no need for him to bring it up.
Now the situation is urgent, and the production capacity of Tiangongsi in all aspects must be increased.
Of course, whether this furnace refining method can be realized depends on the effect of the magic array.
He has limited knowledge of the magic array, so he needs to consult Deacon Luo for his opinion.
"Spiritual magic array furnace?"
Hearing Zhou Ling's words, Deacon Luo was stunned for a moment.
Zhou Ling immediately told him his specific ideas.
After listening, Deacon Luo's eyes lit up, and he pondered for a while and said, "Zhizheng, this idea is not bad, but whether it can be implemented specifically depends on me arranging the magic array to cooperate with the refining furnace to see the effect!"
Zhou Ling nodded, "Hurry up and give it a try as soon as possible!"
"Yes, Zhizheng!"
Deacon Luo bowed and replied.
Zhou Ling looked at Lu Yunxi again and asked, "Deacon Lu, I have another idea, which is to let the disciples of Xuanyuan Daoyuan join Tiangong Division to assist in refining various treasures, which can greatly increase the number."
"Of course, this is limited to the inner courtyard disciples."
"Please list a cooperation method as soon as possible."
"For example, the disciples who participated this time will get extra points in the Tiangong Division assessment in the future!"
Zhou Ling wanted to use all the available resources in Qingyun Xiancheng.
And the inner courtyard disciples of Qingyun Xiancheng are undoubtedly the best choice.
"Understood!"
Lu Yunxi nodded.
The others looked at Zhou Ling and said nothing more.
Although this is not in line with the rules of Tiangong Division.
But now that the beast tide has lasted for more than 20 days, they also clearly have a sense of crisis.
There is nothing wrong with Zhou Ling's decision.
"Select 50 people in the early stage. I will first inform Dean Zhong about this matter!"
Zhou Ling continued.
With Dean Zhong's personality, he would naturally not refuse.
At that time, we can even bring other teachers from the Taoist Academy with us.
At the critical moment, one more person means one more force.
Then he looked at the others and asked, "Do you have any other ideas?"
With the refining of the fourth-level Fiery Sword, his prestige in the Tiangong Division was also established.
No one dared to disobey the current order.
"Zhizheng, with the support of Xuanyuan Taoist Academy, there is no big problem in terms of manpower, but how to solve the problem of materials?"
"This month, Tiangong Division has consumed a lot of materials, and the prices of most materials on the market have also risen sharply."
Deacon Zheng asked.
Hearing this, Zhou Ling frowned, looked at Lu Yunxi, and said, "As for the materials, ask City Lord Lu for help?"
"In addition, we have to find other aristocratic families in the fairy city and ask them to help."
Defending Anyang Fairy City is the top priority now, and I think the family also understands the key to it.
"Yes, enforce justice!"
Lu Yunxi accepted the order.
Subsequently, Zhou Ling gave orders to various halls to increase the supply to Anyang Fairy City by half.
After the matter was settled, Zhou Ling naturally had to take the lead.
He also personally received a batch of third-level explosive thunder missions.
The number of this batch of explosive mines reaches thirty, and they must be completed as soon as possible.
In the Tiangong Department, they were divided into three batches, and no one dared to pick them up for a while.
Zhou Ling also accepted it.
Anyway, he now needs a lot of military merit to expand his family's territory.
Seeing Zhou Lingdu working so hard, others naturally followed suit.
······.
When he returned home, Zhou Ling was surprised to see the palace director wearing a moon-white dress and a cold and noble face sitting in the hall.
Li Ru and Wang Xin were accompanying her, talking about something.
"Husband!"
"Ling'er!"
Seeing Zhou Ling's arrival, Li Ru and Wang Xin spoke up.
"Meet the dean!"
Zhou Ling bowed to Dean Palace and then sat down on the main seat.
Dean Palace nodded with a slight smile.
"Dean, what's wrong?"
After taking a sip of the spirit tea, Zhou Ling asked Dean Gong.
From this year to now, during this period of time, Dean Gong has been in seclusion, and he rarely enters the Sword Shadow Jade to practice.
After all, without the Dean of the Palace, the effect of using [Illusion Deduction and Simulation] would be better than that of Sword Shadow Jade.
"The battle situation in Anyang Immortal City is urgent now. I want to bring the disciples from the Sword Academy to support me. I wonder if you would like to go with me?"
Dean Palace looked at Chen Ling with his beautiful eyes and said.
"Going to Anyang Fairy City?"
Zhou Ling was a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, Dean Gong would go to Anyang Immortal City at this time and bring Taoist disciples with him.
"The Taoist inscription of my Jiutian Sword Academy is to protect the Taoist alliance with the sword in my hand!"
"Now that the beast tide is coming, it is a great time for the disciples of Jiutian Sword Academy to test their sword power!"
Dean Gong said to Zhou Ling.
The implication is that this is also a good opportunity for Zhou Ling to practice swordplay!
Moreover, the Five Elements Sun and Moon Sword Formation that the two of them practiced also needed opportunities for actual combat. Dealing with monsters could increase the power of the sword formation as quickly as possible.
Wang Xin and Li Ru also changed their expressions when they heard this. They didn't want Zhou Ling to take risks.
Looking at Zhou Ling, there was worry in his eyes, but because Dean Gong came in person, he couldn't say anything.
After all, the risk of this animal tide is too great.
"Practice your sword with the aid of the tide of beasts?"
Zhou Ling was surprised again when he heard this.
Indeed, most of the disciples of Jiutian Sword Academy are taking a fierce route. Fighting monsters will definitely improve their sword power.
But the risks are too great.
You must know that this beast tide is led by two fifth-level demon kings.
There are also many other fourth-level and third-level monsters.
With Dean Gong's current strength, as long as he doesn't deal with late-stage fourth-order monsters, there won't be much risk.
"Dean, I am now in charge of the Tiangong Department, and I assist Anyang Fairy City with too many treasures every month."
"I can't escape either. I still have ten third-level treasures to refine!"
Zhou Ling thought for a while and said.
It's not that Zhou Ling is afraid. With his current strength, both his soul and body have reached the third level.
There are also five spiritual flames, which are a great weapon against monsters.
Even if he encounters a fourth-level monster, he may not be incapable of fighting.
However, it is indeed the affairs of the Tiangong Division that are more important.
The effect of refining explosive thunder to deal with monsters may not be worse than if he did it himself.
"Well, I forgot that you are still the official!"
Dean Palace nodded.
We also know that a lot of support in Anyang Immortal City now relies on the Qingyun Immortal City Immortal City Tiangong Department.
As the head of the Tiangong Division, Zhou Ling naturally had to stay in the Tiangong Division to coordinate the overall situation.
Moreover, he can also refine fourth-level treasures, and he cannot leave.
Without saying anything else, he took the tea cup and took a sip of tea.
Li Ru and Wang Xin couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
Later, Dean Gong talked with Zhou Ling about his cultivation experience of the Five Elements Sun and Moon Sword Formation.
She gained a lot from these days of seclusion and cultivation.
Under her guidance, Zhou Ling also felt a sense of enlightenment.
Later, Zhou Ling handed the Five Elements Sword to Dean Gong, hoping to help her.
Although Dean Gong majored in Luomu Sword Intention, his strength in Five Elements Sword Intention was not low.
If this Five Elements Sword is fully activated, it can reach the fourth level of power.
The dean of the palace was not polite and put away the Five Elements Sword.
She then bid farewell to Zhou Ling and the others and asked him to refine more treasures so that Anyang Fairy City could defeat the beast tide as soon as possible.
"call!"
Watching Dean Palace leave, Zhou Ling felt a little heavy in his heart and felt a little guilty.
Dean Palace valued him so much that he originally wanted to go with her.
But he couldn't express the concern in his mother's and Xin'er's eyes.
Moreover, the Tiangong Department is indeed inseparable from him.
"It's too dangerous for Dean Palace to go to Anyang Fairy City like this!"
Li Ru looked worried.
"Mom, Xin'er, don't worry, the beast tide should subside after a while!"
Zhou Ling said to his mother and Wang Xin.
Zhou Ling then went to the training room to refine the explosive thunder.
Only by refining the Explosive Thunder as soon as possible and delivering it to Anyang Fairy City could he alleviate the guilt in his heart.
Three days later.
Tiangong Division Workshop.
Zhou Ling looked at the large melting pot with a radius of several feet in front of him, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
The flames condensed in the furnace reached the third level.
"Zhizheng, this is the furnace that was rebuilt according to your request, using the spiritual fire array! Do you want to give it a try?"
On the side, Deacon Luo, who was wearing a loose robe and a serious look on his face, said to Zhou Ling.
"good!"
Zhou Ling nodded.
Deacon Luo immediately made a hand seal to activate the spiritual fire array, and the flames in the furnace began to burn regularly.
Whoops!
Accompanied by a whirring sound.
"fall!"
Zhou Ling waved his hand, and the black light flashed from the storage ring in his hand, and a dozen pieces of second-order dark iron ore fell into it.
A layer of rolling air waves was set off.
"seal up!"
Deacon Luo shouted low, and a light shield condensed over the furnace, as if sealing the furnace.
The temperature in the furnace quickly increased.
Zhou Ling carefully observed the changes in the materials inside the furnace.
You can clearly see more than a dozen pieces of second-order black iron being rapidly refined.
The impurities condense into black smoke and are evaporated.
The condensed black iron liquid was suspended in the air under the influence of the magic circle, reached a certain amount, and began to flow out along the edge of the furnace.
Regardless of the amount or speed of refining, it is much faster and more than before.
Finally, without the need for Deacon Luo to pull, the liquefied black iron juice flowed out, shining with black luster, and solidified quickly.
"Deacon Luo, this spiritual stove is already very good, but it can be slightly improved when it comes to producing iron juice."
Through [Intermediate Observation] and [Intermediate Analysis], Zhou Ling saw that the whole process worked very well.
There is only room for improvement in the speed of iron juice extraction.
"Okay, these are furnace-building problems, they shouldn't be difficult to solve!"
Deacon Luo nodded.
"In addition, it can also be put into a variety of materials with different properties to be refined at the same time, and iron juice can be produced from different directions at the same time!"
"However, if you keep refining a large amount of ore, the efficiency will be very good. But if the quantity is too small, the consumption will be too high, and the gain will outweigh the loss!"
Deacon Luo pointed to several discharge openings on the furnace and introduced them to Zhou Ling.
"It doesn't matter, let's get over the situation at hand first!"
Zhou Ling replied.
This was originally specially designed to deal with this beast tide.
However, with the refining efficiency of Tiangong Division, it can be used in the future.
When Deacon Luo has time, the Zhou family will ask him to build such a refining furnace.
"Deacon Luo, we need to build another furnace of this size next."
Zhou Ling spoke up again.
With the arrival of disciples from the inner courtyard of Xuanyuan Taoist Academy, the Tiangong Division's weapon refiners will increase in large numbers. Although this furnace is large, it is not enough.
"Yes, enforce justice!"
Deacon Luo cupped his hands and replied.
Afterwards, the two left the workshop.
