Becoming evil makes you ten times stronger, but becoming a demon gives you hundredfold strength

She felt a bit strange in her heart, but she quickly flew over to the scene, which made her eyes nearly split with shock!

A third-grade community naturally had an overall protective formation.

Unfortunately, this large-scale encompassing third-grade formation could only operate a small portion.

The operation of the formation required energy, that is, from the underground spirit vein. All sorts of facilities in the district, whether it was the protective array, cultivator’s cultivation, maintenance of the grounds, and so on, all drew spiritual energy from this spirit vein.

This spirit vein was sufficient for the cultivation of two or three Golden Core cultivators, but with a few hundred households in the district, it was nowhere near enough.

This was also why Golden Core cultivators rarely returned, preferring to squeeze in with others at the fourth-grade areas.

The eye of the formation was a well.

This spirit spring had already begun to develop rudimentary sentience, with the streams and ponds throughout the district acting as its tentacles. It treated everyone equally with its simple sentience, mechanically executing commands even if a Divinity Transformation came.

However, today, Xia Hailu heard that the water spirit in the well was singing. The reason for the singing was that Xiao Jun was pouring a bag of spirit stones into the well!

Not one or two, not three or four, but a whole bag, just like that, dumped into the well like trash!

The lustrous spirit stones fell into the spirit well, the water spirit encircled Xiao Jun, singing an incomprehensible song in an unknown language, but Xia Hailu could be one hundred percent certain of its content, which was nothing but, praise to the supreme master, thank you, thank you, very much appreciated...

"Ah, you’re here."

When Xia Hailu arrived, Meng Yu had just finished pouring the second bag of spirit stones and then took out a third bag, tossing these things into the spirit well like throwing breadcrumbs.

Since the district was now Meng Yu’s, he was preparing to turn this place into a model district. Yesterday, Hua Miaochai had mentioned that the formation of the community was good, but the extraction of spiritual energy had been too severe and it had not been nourished for a long time. This was not good, and it needed to be nourished and cared for.

Meng Yu was a person who did not quite understand the subtleties of human relations, nor did he know how to nourish a spirit well. He couldn’t just bring over fruits and nutritional supplements as a condolence. He was rather crude, so tossing a few bags of spirit stones into the spring’s eye should have a good effect, right?

"You, you, you, where did you get these spirit stones?"

Xia Hailu’s eyes went wide as she watched the gleaming spirit stones fall into the spirit well.

Spirit veins and spirit stones, the former being gaseous within the earth’s veins, while the latter were crystallizations of condensed spiritual energy, were simply not comparable.

"Ah, the customs people were nice. They didn’t find them."

After dumping three bags of ordinary spirit stones into the spirit well, Meng Yu took out another bag.

Xia Hailu bit her lip hard, refraining from saying anything embarrassing—how could she let herself drool over dog food while someone fed it to their dog?

The fourth bag of spirit stones, piece by piece, fell into the spirit well, causing her heart to bleed.

This rich dog owner was definitely showing off on purpose!

"You’ve worked hard these past days, hmm, take this."

A small Sealing Spirit Box bag fell into her hands, inside of which were ten lustrous, transparent middle-grade spirit stones.

"Thank you for your constant support, and also, could you please deliver this item to the True Sage behind you?"

The second box fell into Xia Hailu’s hands, and upon opening it, her eyes grew wide with shock.

Ten superior quality spirit stones!

These items were highly coveted within the Immortal Sect, and at the Blood God Sect, they were valuable enough for a Nascent Soul True Monarch to tear off their own face for them! And if her master got these ten spirit stones...

"You’ve actually never been short of money, always playing possum?"

Suddenly, Xia Hailu thought of a possibility.

"Not at all, I’m just a poor Foundation Establishment, please don’t make fun of me. Actually, there is something I really need help with. I’m planning to develop this large community properly, and I was wondering if you could help me get in touch with those above, to invite some Foundation Establishment and Qi Cultivation practitioners to help, with a generous reward."

"Ah?"

Xia Hailu blinked her eyes, then blinked again.

She understood that Meng Yu was planning to refurbish the community, but was it really necessary to go to such trouble? To invite so many people?

"Yes, it’s necessary."

Meng Yu said with a smile.

On the Immortal Sect’s side, everything was safe, filled with good people, so Meng Yu chose a third-grade planet to set up his base on. On this side, with so many loopholes in the Blood God Sect from top to bottom, Meng Yu built his base directly on Ceres. In this way, at least he wouldn’t have a Yinzhou-type ship suddenly descending upon the planet and launching a strike that would turn the whole planet to rags.

So, Ceres is the perfect location for a base.

...

Blood God Sect, Eternal Sky Academy, Civil Engineering Department.

Even though the Blood God Sect’s millennial celebration is just a few months away, the students at the academy still maintain a rigorous course schedule.

Battling and killing is just a small part of a cultivator’s life, the real deal lies in making money with Immortal Techniques or achieving great ambitions.

"All assemble."

Suddenly, an order came, and over a thousand students appeared in the school’s auditorium.

"There is an internship opportunity available. Baihua District is preparing for renovation, and the owner Xiao Jun hopes to recruit three hundred students from the Civil Engineering and Array Formation Departments to help. There are limited spots available, so if anyone is interested, please sign up quickly."

The teacher spoke somewhat helplessly about the situation—three hundred students? It was a joke; these kids were the pride of Eternal Sky Academy, and normally a big project would consist of no more than ten or eight students.

"Xiao Jun?"

Many students had heard this name.

Some signed up, some ridiculed, some pondered, and some simply shook their heads.

Meanwhile, on Ceres, there were many other job postings.

An impoverished mountainous area suddenly had a major merchant come to invest, the factory was yet to be built, but he said, "Let’s start with a place to live."

Of course, Ceres is no impoverished mountainous region, but everyone was eager to know what Xiao Jun had planned—was it a Chinese-style villa or a Western-style design?

What kind of flair could he bring to such a large residential area?

On the first day of construction, one thousand three hundred workers showed up, and Xia Hailu brought all her close girlfriends and friends without exception, telling everyone that even if they had to toil like oxen and horses, they must do the dust-laden work well.

People were speechless, then they saw Hua Miaochai and two other women in disguise. Their identities were unknown, but the flamboyance of the Immortal Sect was too apparent.

The appearance of Hua Miaochai conclusively pinned down Meng Yu’s identity.

Oh, isn’t the moment of true identity revelation supposed to be dramatic, with face-slapping or spotlight moments?

But there were none. Hua Miaochai appeared silently by Meng Yu’s side, still wearing Xiao Jun’s face, and the beautiful Flower Demon became the chief director of the project.

It wasn’t a Chinese-style villa, nor a Western-style design; it was a radical transformation.

First was the foundation laying.

A mountain-like pile of Spirit Stones was buried underground, revitalizing the local Spirit Vein.

A mountain-like pile of Spirit Stones was embedded into each Eye of Array, creating a self-sustaining high Spiritual Energy environment.

Then came the detailed engineering work, unsuitable buildings were leveled, the community was replanned, and new Arrays in harmony with the Great Formation were built. The Puppets Meng Yu had acquired from the Immortal Sect to deal with the Cultivator Legion appeared on Ceres.

This was the first month.

At the start of the first day, everyone was quite dissatisfied, but seeing how casually Spirit Stones were used like dirt showcased a display of opulence, and they quickly became diligent workers.

Then came the second month.

Western Wastes, Moon-Watching Sect.

When Bu Shixian, Hu Qingquan, and others were joyfully cultivating, Meng Yu returned after a long absence. He had an affectionate reunion with everyone for ten days and returned to Ceres with six Storage Bags full of supplies.

In construction, landscaping is the most expensive part, and at the Blood God Sect, good quality spirit wood costs a fortune.

But good spirit wood is not scarce at all in the Sky-Splitting Sword Sect, ah no, in the Western Wastes.

The wealthy merchant arrived in the impoverished area, not to build villas, but with a steel frame structure, he built a thirty-story building in just one month.

Please witness the strength of technology, understand the power of external aids.

Thank you.
