Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor-Chapter 1823 - 1822: Plunder!

Although most of the Phoenix Sect members have come up, numbering around ten million, in terms of quantity, they can completely form an unranked sect like the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion and Sect of the Supreme Shadow before.

However, numbers are ultimately just numbers, and the difference in strength is still too great.

One is in the Mortal Realm, and the other is in the Spirit Realm. Even if the Phoenix Sect had a hundred million, or a billion people, what use would it be?

This level of disparity cannot be compensated by mere numbers; a single palm from someone in the Spirit Transformation Realm can kill countless Dragon Venerates!

Therefore, Su Han will temporarily not arrange for them to participate in the war, as that would only be sending them to their deaths.

The time flow inside the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son is one hundred and thirty times that of the outside world; one year outside is equivalent to one hundred thirty years inside!

Su Han believes that as long as there are enough resources, at most, no more than ten years in the outside world, the Phoenix Sect members will rapidly grow.

Ten years outside, inside the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son... one thousand three hundred years!!!

Regarding resources...

There are three cultivation systems within the Phoenix Sect.

The first, naturally, is the ordinary cultivators. Upon arriving in the Lower-Class Star Region, they undergo Transform Mortal into Spirit, cultivating according to realms like Spirit Transformation Realm, Spirit Body Realm, and Void Heaven Realm.

The resources they need are Spirit Crystals.

The second is the Immortal Cultivation system led by Shangguan Mingxin!

Currently, the Astral Body Regiment has reached a full ten thousand people, thanks to the survival of the fittest under Shangguan Mingxin’s rigorous supervision.

The resources required by the Astral Body Regiment are also Spirit Crystals.

As for the third, it’s the Regiment of the Purple Night Divine Guard and Bright Moon Divine Guard! — Magic system!

What they need certainly isn’t Spirit Crystals, but Demon Crystal Stones.

From Dragon Martial Continent, they brought a full five hundred million Demon Crystal Stones, but considering the Regiment of the Purple Night and Bright Moon, which totals eighty thousand in numbers...

Five hundred million Demon Crystal Stones are clearly not enough!

It’s not that they didn’t want to bring more, but time was tight, and Demon Crystal Stones are extremely precious; they could only bring these.

Five hundred million Demon Crystal Stones, averaged out, mean each person gets less than six hundred Demon Crystal Stones!

What can six hundred do?

Don’t even mention allowing them to cultivate in the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son for one thousand three hundred years; even thirteen years is impossible!

Therefore, considering the aptitude, cultivation speed, and time of the members of the Phoenix Sect, Su Han is completely unconcerned.

The only concern is resources!

"Dragon Martial Continent, being an abandoned planet, yet under my Phoenix Sect’s selection, eighty thousand mages and ten thousand Immortal Cultivators emerged."

Su Han shook his head and bitterly smiled, "Really don’t know what to say..."

Resources are a must, and absolutely cannot be delayed, not for a moment! 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Every day delayed outside, it’s equivalent to one hundred thirty years in the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son; it’s been a full four months, just thinking about it hurts Su Han.

And right now, the Phoenix Sect does not have the strength to acquire resources, so the only way is through Su Han and the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion!

...

On the morning of the next day, Su Han walked out of the room.

Xiao Yuhui and the four others, as well as Su Qing and Su Yao, all entered the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son to begin cultivation.

Su Han pondered as he headed directly to where Ren Qinghuan was.

Within the boudoir.

Seeing Su Han’s arrival, Ren Qinghuan slightly raised her eyelids and suddenly said, "Isn’t this Sect Master Su? What, have your four wives already gone up, and after just three days, you came looking for my pavilion?"

Su Han was taken aback for a moment and couldn’t help saying, "This doesn’t seem like something Grand Pavilion Master Ren would say."

"Humph!"

Ren Qinghuan snorted coldly and said directly, "If you have business, say it quickly, I still need to cultivate, don’t waste my time here."

Su Han could clearly hear the odd note in Ren Qinghuan’s tone, as if it contained a sourness.

"Ahem..."

Coughing lightly twice, Su Han didn’t continue on that topic, instead saying, "So many from the Phoenix Sect have come up; you also know that they need extremely large amounts of resources, whether Spirit Crystals or Demon Crystal Stones."

"What’s it got to do with me?"

Ren Qinghuan glanced at Su Han, "I’ve arranged for them to live in the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion, with good food and drink served, which is quite benevolent. Do you intend for me to provide resources for their cultivation?"

"Didn’t you say so yourself back then..." Su Han rubbed his nose.

"Back then is back then, now is now!"

Ren Qinghuan slapped the table, stood up abruptly, and looked down at Su Han in a domineering manner, saying, "I said no, so no!"

"What kind of madness is this..."

Su Han couldn’t help but raise his head, but as he looked up, he suddenly realized that Ren Qinghuan was standing right in front of him, head lowered, staring at him.

Their eyes met, and they could both feel each other’s breath.

After a slight silence in the atmosphere, a blush quickly spread across Ren Qinghuan’s beautiful face, and Su Han also showed embarrassment, turning his head to look elsewhere.

"Just say it directly, what exactly do you want to do?"

After a moment, Ren Qinghuan spoke again, "With ten million from the Phoenix Sect up here, even if one person only needs one Spirit Crystal a day, it’s still a consumption of tens of millions daily. You know, I’d give it to you; as long as you ask, I would give it to you. But the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion cannot bear this burden forever. As for Demon Crystal Stones, the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion doesn’t have those; only entry-level sects hold such mines."

"Whew..."

Su Han took a deep breath, looking at Ren Qinghuan, and said solemnly, "Plunder!"

"Hmm?"

Ren Qinghuan was startled, "Plunder resources? From other sects?"

"Yes."

Su Han nodded, smiling, "The Lower-Class Star Region is vast, with abundant resources, but there are countless sect influences. Every known area has essentially been occupied by other sects unless chance brings a windfall to find unclaimed resource lands. Therefore, the only way is plundering!"

Ren Qinghuan frowned tightly, "Resources are the foundation of every power; if you want to plunder, it will surely lead to war..."

"Then let there be war!"

Su Han’s smile grew stronger, "The Heavenly Mountain Pavilion today is no longer the one from before. Among these unranked sect powers around us, when my Heavenly Mountain Pavilion calls itself second, no one dares claim first!"

"Such confidence?" Ren Qinghuan’s beautiful eyes lit up.

From her expression, Su Han could see, this woman is probably also a warmonger...

"But my current targets are not those unranked sects, but Silver Moon Sect and Hidden Blood Sect!"

Su Han said solemnly, "I don’t know if anyone reported to you, but the Mercenary Group of the Heavenly Sea was previously besieged by the Hidden Blood Sect. Had I not happened upon the scene, the Mercenary Group of the Heavenly Sea would probably already have been wiped out."
