Chapter 344 Planning the Immortal City

Chapter 344: Planning an Immortal City

Upon hearing that Zhang Yuhe finally had the idea of establishing an Immortal City, Yu Liwei couldn't help but be overjoyed.

She had always believed that the Chaos Continent was the stage for Cultivators to strive.

There were endless resources and all sorts of life-and-death trials there.

Only in such an environment would a Cultivator's strength improve faster.

What future could there be by staying cooped up in the Jian Sea Area?

Even when her strength was weak in the past, Yu Liwei had always ventured into the Chaos Continent.

It was only after Lu Yunfei went missing and the Jian Sea Area lost its backbone that she returned to take charge.

Zhang Yuhe naturally understood that for the Dao Saint Sect to develop and grow, it must go to the Chaos Continent.

Because that was the center of the entire Immortal Realm.

Although the South Sea Immortal Realm could be considered vast and boundless, due to the numerous forces, all the territory and resources had already been divided among the major powers.

Even if they wanted to expand outwards, there was no place.

Next to them was the Nangong Sea Area.

They couldn't possibly destroy the Nangong Immortal Clan to expand their territory, could they?

If that were to happen, the Dao Saint Sect would probably quickly become like a rat crossing the street, hated by everyone.

The Immortal Realm had always been peaceful.

There were rarely disputes between major forces.

Even if disputes did arise, they generally wouldn't escalate into full-blown battles.

At most, they would secretly trip each other up.

No one dared to openly exterminate a sect.

With the Dao Ancestors suppressing them from above, no one dared to be overly presumptuous.

Accumulating strength and eliminating the Chaos Beasts—this was the common goal of Cultivators in the Immortal Realm.

As long as one's strength was sufficient, establishing an Immortal City in the Chaos Continent was almost a necessary path for all forces in the Immortal Realm to develop and grow.

As early as when he first Ascended to the Immortal Realm, Zhang Yuhe had been looking forward to the day he could establish an Immortal City of his own in the Chaos Continent.

However, establishing an Immortal City in the Chaos Continent was not that simple.

An Immortal City was not only a foothold for Cultivators in the Chaos Continent but also an important resource point.

Without suitable resources, even establishing an Immortal City would not have much meaning.

What use was an Immortal City where the income couldn't keep up with the consumption?

Was it meant to be just a facade?

The reason Zhang Yuhe hadn't acted was that he wanted to find a suitable resource point.

He didn't really care for ordinary Immortal Artifact ore veins.

He wanted to find a place that could produce important resources to establish an Immortal City.

At the very least, it should have a second-Rank Immortal-grade ore vein, preferably a third-Rank Immortal Artifact ore vein.

Or it could produce other rare resources.

However, such places were not easy to find.

Although the Chaos Continent was not like the South Sea Immortal Realm, where all territories were already divided, empty and masterless places were everywhere.

But most places did not have the ability to continuously produce resources.

And those relatively safe resource points had already been occupied.

If he wanted to find suitable resource points, he would have to demand them from the Chaos Beasts.

Generally speaking, almost every location where a Chaos Beast Tribe resided had important resources.

The more Advanced the Chaos Beast Tribe, the richer and more valuable the resources there.

So Zhang Yuhe planned to find an opportunity to destroy a powerful Chaos Beast Tribe and see if there was a suitable resource point.

If it was suitable, he would then establish an Immortal City there.

However, destroying a large Chaos Beast Tribe was not an easy task.

It wasn't that his strength wasn't enough.

To be honest, he alone could sweep through those Tribes without a King Beast guarding them.

For example, the Mingsha Ridge Tribe that appeared in the last beast tide.

Mingsha Ridge had over a hundred Nine-Star Chaos Beasts, equivalent to those in the Taiyi Realm, making their strength incredibly formidable.

In previous beast tides, the Mingsha Ridge Tribe alone could suppress multiple Lord-level Immortal Cities, including Tiangong City.

Despite this, Zhang Yuhe did not take the Mingsha Ridge Tribe seriously.

As long as he wished, he could sweep away the Mingsha Ridge Tribe at any time.

But he did not do so, because this was a matter that involved everything.

Once he made a move on Mingsha Ridge, the Niulanshan Tribe behind it would surely send reinforcements quickly.

Compared to Mingsha Ridge, the Niulanshan Tribe was incredibly powerful.

There were at least more than twenty King-level Chaos Beasts.

Even though the Niulanshan Tribe had two Level 5 Chaos Beasts destroyed by Immortal King Wan Shan during the last beast tide, its strength had not significantly weakened.

At least, he definitely couldn't afford to provoke it.

Aside from Mingsha Ridge, other Tribes of the same Rank were similar; they all had powerful backing.

As for those small Tribes, they were completely out of Zhang Yuhe's consideration.

Last time, he consecutively destroyed four small Tribes.

Aside from finding a piece of Innate spiritual material, he found nothing else that caught his eye.

Some Tribe locations didn't even have a single first-Rank Immortal-grade ore vein.

These small Tribes were never Zhang Yuhe's target.

Given the current strength of the Dao Saint Sect, if they were to establish an Immortal City, it should at least be a Lord-level Immortal City.

He had no interest in first building a few small Weicheng (Garrison City) for fun.

How boring would that be?

According to past experience in the Immortal Realm, to establish a Lord-level Immortal City, one must destroy a Level 3 Chaos Beast Tribe.

Based on their strength, the Immortal Realm divides Chaos Beast Tribes into five Ranks, from Level 1 to Level 5.

Tribes with Chaos Beasts not exceeding three stars are Level 1 Tribes.

Those below six stars are Level 2 Tribes.

Chaos Beast Tribes with strength not exceeding nine stars are Level 3 Tribes.

Tribes with King-level Chaos Beasts are Level 4 Tribes.

Tribes with Venerable-level Chaos Beasts are Level 5 Tribes.

Mingsha Ridge, with multiple Nine-Star Chaos Beasts, is a Level 3 Tribe.

As for Niulan Mountain, it is a powerful Level 4 Tribe.

In the past, the Niulanshan Tribe could even overpower the entire South Sea Immortal Realm.

Its strength was evident from this.

Zhang Yuhe wanted to destroy a Level 3 Chaos Beast Tribe, but he had to wait for an opportunity.

He definitely couldn't do it alone.

Only when the beast tide arrived would all the major forces of the South Sea Immortal Realm be deployed.

The main force of the Chaos Beasts would be tied up by the major forces.

In that case, Zhang Yuhe could find an opportunity to destroy a Level 3 Chaos Beast Tribe.

Of course, this was just his personal idea.

To truly achieve it, there was still some difficulty.

Actually, the best method would be for the Wanxian Gate to take the lead, with all major forces moving together to launch a counterattack against the Chaos Beasts.

That way, Zhang Yuhe could fish in troubled waters.

Destroying a Level 3 Chaos Beast Tribe would then be very easy.

However, the Wanxian Gate's intentions would not be swayed by him.

He also did not have the qualification to make the Wanxian Gate cooperate with his actions.

So Zhang Yuhe thought about trying his luck when the beast tide erupted.

In normal times, relying solely on the strength of the Dao Saint Sect, there would be no chance of destroying a Level 3 Chaos Beast Tribe.

Even if they destroyed the Chaos Beast Tribe, they wouldn't be able to withstand the subsequent counterattacks from other Chaos Beasts.

Just wait.

It'll be soon anyway.

Zhang Yuhe picked up his teacup and drank it all, thinking to himself.
