Chapter 484: Chapter 98: Military Expenses_3
Before, Ning Zhuo took out quite a few pieces, but now if he wants to cultivate by leveraging the Dao, he cannot afford to trade these treasures casually.
It’s worth mentioning that each trip of the Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon through the void starts at half a million low-grade Spirit Stones.
These assets are more than enough to meet the cultivation needs of Sun Lingtong and Ning Zhuo.
However, on the battlefield, when it comes to maintaining an army, they immediately become much thinner.
Ning Zhuo went to the cultivation cabin and knocked on the Fetal Breathing Spirit Boat.
Inside, Sun Lingtong, who was cultivating, opened his eyes and stepped out of the Spirit Boat, “Little Zhuo, what’s the matter?”
...
Ning Zhuo would not interrupt his cultivation without reason.
Ning Zhuo then informed Sun Lingtong of the details, “I plan to cut costs and increase sources.”
“On one hand, I’ll contact the Ten Thousand Medicine Sect to bulk purchase Fasting Pills and other basic Elixir Pills. Given my relationship with them, I can get a low price.”
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
“On the other hand, I could have the Ning Clan’s branch refine more Jade Dark Steel. Big brother, do you remember that battle near Mist Hidden Mountain?”
“At that time, Meng Zizhong’s soldiers wearing Yugang Armor were quite effective against those Demon Cultivators and Demon Beasts.”
“If I could sell these armors to the Three Generals Camp, perhaps it could open up a new market for the clan.”
“Sigh… time is just too short.”
“I really wish the Poison Flame Chrysanthems would harvest now.”
“I wonder if the ancestor has returned to Fire Persimmon Mountain.”
Sun Lingtong pondered for a while, “Even if we can manage that, help from afar doesn’t quench the immediate thirst, and the extent to which it quenches is quite limited.”
Ning Zhuo nodded, “That’s why I’m also thinking about the Old Monster in Stone. If we could steal him back, we’d be rich overnight, and the current financial gap would be completely negligible!”
Upon mentioning this, Sun Lingtong’s eyes lit up, “Yes, yes, yes, Little Zhuo, that’s a great idea.”
“To tell you the truth, I’ve been thinking about this matter these quiet days!”
“Now that we can handle Dao Injuries, that Stone Ball is a complete treasure.”
“We need to act quickly on this matter.”
“If others discover that the Old Monster in Stone is already dead, then it’s all over.”
Ning Zhuo pondered, “To re-enter the Thousand Peak Forest, we must first repair the Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon, deal with the Blood Shadow on its dragon body, and also have more Fire Essence reserves.”
Since we’ve already been there, the Mechanical Dragon has accurate beacons and can shuttle directly to the destination.
Very convenient.
Sun Lingtong frowned, feeling troubled, “Blood Shadow Cave Master is at Nascent Soul Level, and the methods he’s set are very difficult for us to remove.”
“If only we had top-quality Ruoshui, that would cleanse these.”
“It’s tough for us to achieve this step alone, we need to rely on external help.”
Ning Zhuo, “How about Zhang Zhongyi?”
Sun Lingtong thought for a moment, “His medical skills are strong, he can even treat Dao Injuries. After all, he was once a Nascent Soul Level Cultivator, so the Blood Shadow Technique probably won’t trouble him.”
“But, by doing so, we would expose the existence of the Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon.”
“Is that appropriate?”
“Put another way, can Zhang Zhongyi be trusted?”
Ning Zhuo thought for a moment, “Zhang Zhongyi adheres to the Righteous Path, just like me, he has a heart aligned with righteousness.”
“Whether it was the time he was accused of a crime, or this instance of him joining the army to aid General Mu Lan, it shows his life philosophy of being grateful.”
“Our treatment this time also depended greatly on his intervention. Without him, it would not have been possible.”
“I still trust him quite a bit.”
“Sigh…” Ning Zhuo said with a deep sigh, “I did not wish to treat a good person this way, but for our safety, I’ve decided to still use the Life Hanging Thread and the Buddha Heart Devil Seal on him!”
Sun Lingtong patted Ning Zhuo’s arm, “Little Zhuo, I know you are kind-hearted, but don’t feel burdened.”
“We’re not going to harm him.”
“It’s just caution there should be.”
“Just have a good talk with him!”
Ning Zhuo hummed in agreement, unaware at this moment that Zhang Zhongyi also intended to talk to him.
