Master of Strange Dao Chapter 719 - 201: Starting the Research Project, Emperor Ku

As long as you are willing to burn Spirit Jade, any research can be conducted in the lab.

If you honestly consu materials for research, replacing it with Spirit Jade would be astronomical, and no one can afford it.

For people like them, funding is never enough.

Now, they only need to burn Spirit Jade to have a better research facility, even better than Langya Institute.

Yang was practically floating as he walked.

He had loved this all his life.

Jinlan Mountain was great in every way, except its research environnt couldn't compare to Langya Institute.

There was nothing that could be done; those studies were pure money pits, no, burning money wasn't even that fast.

Sotis a very precious material would be lost to verify its characteristics, taking only a breath's ti before it was destroyed, and then it continued, destroyed again in another breath.

No Divine Dynasty could withstand them recklessly consuming at will.

But now, there was a chance.

Yu Ziqing slipped in quietly, seeing Yang's passion as if it were ablaze, and then quietly stepped back, not daring to disturb him.

At such tis, if he accidentally disrupted Yang's inspiration, this guy would likely lose his mind.

Unbearable, truly unbearable...

...

In the northwest of Dali, the Abyssal Rift war had essentially entered its late stage.

Deprived of the Great Devil's presence and command, these devils were like a heap of loose sand.

The reason the conflict continued was not that the devils didn't want to leave, but because the West Desolate Army and the hungry ghosts didn't want to let them retreat easily.

Nearly all the devils were controlled within a thousand-mile radius of the Abyssal Rift, and it was only a matter of ti before they were exterminated.

Moreover, as the battle dominated completely, cultivators wanting to seize the chance to feast beca more and more nurous.

The materials on devils' bodies had silently increased in price for quite a long ti.

The more common they were, the greater the consumption, the more the prices rose.

Don't look at it as just climbing from one piece of Spirit Jade to two; the increase wasn't huge, but the quantity was.

The accumulated profits there were even more than purchasing high-grade materials.

The Western Desolation General would not let go of such a profit-making opportunity.

Satiated hungry ghosts dutifully guarded the Abyssal Rift, blocking the retreat of those devils.

The deceitful ghost even gave a vicious trick by pretending to be defeated on the abyss side, luring those devils to continuously surge in.

In reality, the subsequent devils, once they jumped into the Abyssal Rift, basically turned into materials.

The stronger devils that hadn't arrived from the deeper abyss, the Great Devils, hadn't even reached yet; they were just playing dead, retreating.

Their information was far more inford than that of ordinary devils.

The outco of the Abyssal Rift battle was completely without suspense.

In the Eastern Palace of Dali, the Crown Prince sat facing Wen Lingyou.

Wen Lingyou listened to the Crown Prince detailing so plans, and after listening, shook his head imdiately.

"Your Highness, I think it's better to let it go, the gains don't outweigh the losses.

Alas, this ti I went personally near the Forbidden Land of Jinlan Mountain, and combined with the vague sensing earlier.

I hadn't ntioned it because even I didn't quite believe my own perception.

There might be a Ninth Tier Peak body cultivator in Jinlan Mountain, absolutely at the peak.

I vaguely sensed it, but at that ti the Yin Devil's disturbance obscured everything.

And there was a hidden, imnse killing intent lurking, I deduced it should be a sword cultivator with extrely high combat power.

But that's not all.

I saw those several massive Great Devil heads burning with Black Fire, suffering there.

Do you know what I deduced?"

"Master, is there any additional mighty power?"

"I deduced that those several Great Devils were turned into that state by one person in a single blow.

Several Great Devils, in their hands, like chicks, could even be kept from being destroyed, trapping them there completely.

It might take another thousand years for those Great Devils to be burned until their consciousnesses are extinguished."

"Master, but that..."

"No."

Before the Crown Prince could finish the question, Wen Lingyou decisively denied it.

"Absolutely impossible, the one slumbering beneath Jinlan Mountain has not awakened.

Not a trace, not a sign.

It is just the powerhouses within Jinlan Mountain.

Don't look at ; I don't know why there are so many powerhouses in Jinlan Mountain, I'm puzzled too.

But they are there, and they are all top-class.

All Ninth Tier, not a single one in the first tribulation.

If one day Dadui returns, completes the sky and earth, and opens the path to the Tenth Tier, Jinlan Mountain will surely have soone with the opportunity to advance to the Tenth Tier.

Therefore, Crown Prince, all those strategies you ntioned should be abandoned.

Firstly, don't think of dividing the hungry ghosts; I agree with Qing Ziyu's sentint.

The number of hungry ghosts isn't determined by him, but by how we act.

The hungry ghosts themselves do not wish for more hungry ghosts to appear; I believe this.

Secondly, in a hundred years, or a few centuries, there will be dramatic changes.

Now the devils are rampant; even the Great Devil King has a resurgence trend.

We must form good relations with Jinlan Mountain.

Thirdly, Daqian's Langya Institute shows signs of internal strife.

Emperor Qian has not gone into long-term seclusion yet to prepare for the Tenth Tier path.

He must have other ideas.

Recruiting Dao cultivators from all over to the Lihuo Institute is one.

We also need to guard against any actions from Daqian.

And to be wary of any moves from Dazhen.

Previously, the prince annexed a portion of Dazhen's territory, bespeaking the desire of Zhen.

Though now Emperor Zhen, for Dazhen's stability, has not rashly waged war.

But I have already received the news, in the northern part of Dazhen, even in sumr, the bitter cold remains unrelieved.

And the western part of Dazhen, with its extrely harsh environnt, has always been sparsely populated.
