Chapter 1087 (1/2)
The Saint Fire Soldier Ants were extremely quick, good at using the blade arms that extended from their limbs to kill. Their shells were really tough and a saint white silver flame burned around their bodies.
Zong Shou frowned. It really wasn’t an easy matter to help these ants design a Dao Soldier formation.
So, he stopped being distracted and he refocused to the area in front of him.
Although this Blood Flame Island was leveled out by the spirit masters under him, the spiritual veins still existed within.
The spiritual energy was really thick, no lower than any other Spiritual House.
To leave it empty was just such a waste. They couldn’t just wait for the Demon Path Blood Flame Sect to come back and take it over again right?
“Senior Brother Mingyu, why doesn’t your Common People’s Path take over this place?”
Mingyu seemed to expect Zong Shou saying that, he shook his head, “We have no use for it! Thanks to Junior Brother each of the six schools have their own mountains, the three sects also each have a branch. We have too few disciples and having too many spiritual lands is not good. Not only would we not be able to defend them, but other people might take the chance to attack us…”
Zong Shou frowned and wasn’t really surprised. Common People’s Path had indeed too few disciples and to occupy half of the more than twenty Demon Path sect mountains was already their limit.
To lay out the spiritual formations once more, to send disciples to defend would split up the sect’s strength.
He didn’t try to persuade him at all, raising his head as he looked into the sky.
Before he even said a word a teen appeared thirty thousand feet away.
“Ruler forgive us, the Sword Sect is the same too, our situation is even worse than the Common People’s Path. Occupying six spiritual lands is already our limit. We have no other way…”
Zong Shou didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry. Such a cultivation land was something all cultivators craved for.
However, now both the Common People’s Path and Sword Sect were afraid and avoided it.
Their foundations were just too shallow, even if they had the upper hand now in the Cloud World they wouldn’t be able to greatly expand their strength.
The difference between them and the Taoist Faction and the Demon Path was huge.
Sword Sect and Common People’s Path couldn’t take it but the Buddhist Faction definitely would be able too. The Buddhist Faction had always been suppressed by Taoist Faction. In this region of the world, they were much stronger than Taoist Faction.
They would definitely be able to accept this Spiritual Mountain.
However, the moment such a thought rose up, a Buddhist call rang out.
“Unlimited Beginning and End! Buddha’s kind intent is something we accept. However, our Buddhist philosophy is to raise believers and disciples to make the world a pure place. Although this island is good, it is far away and there are no people here. It would be a burden for our Buddhist Faction…”
In simple words they didn’t like it as it was too secluded and there were too few people, unable to recruit disciples. It was useless even if the Buddhist Faction took it so he could only shelf it.
However, speaking of which the Buddhist Faction temples were either at famous mountains and areas with many people all in huge cities to gather worshippers.
There were really few in the wilderness.
Zong Shou couldn’t help but feel his head hurt. Great Gan needed to have enough spiritual lands to support their large amounts of cultivators and spirit masters.
However, they didn’t have a use for this place either. Before this, he had selected a few really good ones which were already enough.
Even though there was a need for more, such a place which was so far from country land and couldn’t be called upon swiftly wasn’t something that he liked.
The problem was that the remaining Demon Path Sects were all far from the Cloud Continent and really secluded.
He couldn’t occupy them one by one and then let the Demon Path take them back. That would go against what his purpose was…
He took in a deep breath and then he said in deep thought, “I remember that there were a few factionless sects nearby…”
The so-called factionless sects referred to sects being set up by factionless cultivators and didn’t belong to either of the six factions.
Similar to Kongqi Sect which learned a bit of Mohist Faction legacy and survived in the cracks of the six factions.
However, these sects rarely obtained enough cultivation resources and were often suppressed and robbed by other sects.
They definitely craved such cultivation lands.
“If they want this Blood Flame Island they can move over. If one faction can’t swallow it, then a few join hands. However, they have to join Great Gan and be loyal to me. To send enough cultivators to serve the army.”
Mingyu couldn’t help but exchange glances with the Sword Sect teen which showed his face slightly.
That method was also really vicious. While weakening the Demon Sect they greatly increased Great Gan strength too.
If those factionless sects wanted to keep the spiritual land under the threat of the Demon Sect, they would have to wholeheartedly rely on Great Gan.
The moment Zong Shou said this, a furious woman’s voice spread over.
“Does Ruler really want to chase our Demon Path sects to the brink? To wipe out all our million disciples?”
The moment it rang out it was thousands of miles away. A moment later, it was a few feet out. A white streak of light appeared in front of Zong Shou’s face.
A woman with a petite and alluring body appeared three hundred thousand feet away from Zong Shou in the air.
