Chapter 710 A sudden crisis(1/3)
As a new member, if you plant the Soul Restriction when you first join, life and death will be at your hands.
It is difficult for people to accept it both emotionally and rationally, and may lead to resistance.
After all, to a certain extent, choosing to join is also a form of trust.
If such an extreme approach is taken, it will lead to disunity over time, and it will be difficult to have trust between the organization and its members.
Therefore, the control method used by Liu Yu was just to put the mark of a special method on its golden elixir.
With this mark, combined with specific spells, the whereabouts of the marked person can be tracked at any time.
This special mark is extremely strong. It is probably a method deduced by the great monks of the Purple Turban Army. Once planted, it will be extremely difficult to remove unless the Nascent Soul Lord takes action.
However, ordinary Nascent Soul Lord may not be able to completely eliminate it.
Of course, Jindan members have access to more things, and the danger will be greater if they rebel.
Therefore, just like Liu Yu joining the Commoner League, handing over a drop of blood is essential.
With a special mark and a drop of blood essence, the location can be tracked and locked through various means.
Even if you can escape for a while, you can't escape forever.
After all, in the Holy Land of Qianting, even if you buy horse bones for thousands of dollars, you can't always send masters to protect the betrayers.
Under the pursuit of various radical loose cultivating organizations, it is difficult for betrayers of any organization to have a good ending in the end, and they often do not end well.
It is difficult to save one's life after betrayal, and under the constant worry, any monk whose faith is wavering has to repeatedly weigh the pros and cons and dare not act lightly.
In this way, the occurrence of this kind of behavior is effectively reduced.
According to Liu Yu's understanding, Nascent Soul cultivator Ming Jing, who "rebelled by killing his master," had long been on the kill lists of major casual cultivators.
It was only because he escaped to the "Shenjing", a place where the influence of the casual cultivator organization was weakest, that he temporarily saved his life.
It can be foreseen that once he steps out of Shenjing, or if the defense of Qianting is relaxed, some masters of casual cultivators will definitely try to take his life!
The special mark can be removed, but with a drop of blood in your hand, you can still use divination, telekinesis and other methods to determine the location!
Not every monk can use Lingbao to directly cut off the connection like him!
"Hong was on a mission, so he did it as a last resort. I hope fellow Taoist Lu Yi won't take offense."
"excuse me."
Planting a special mark on the golden elixir and collecting a drop of its essence and blood, Liu Yu gently cupped his hand and apologized again.
"It's okay, Fellow Daoist Hong said something serious."
"Given the organization's situation, I can understand."
Although he was a little reluctant, Lu Yi felt much better after hearing Liu Yu's repeated comfort, and he immediately cupped his hands to show that he didn't care.
By handing over the essence and blood to plant a special mark, this person can be regarded as officially joining the association and becoming a golden elixir member of the Purple Turban Army.
The subsequent exchange was naturally much more pleasant.
"From now on, we are truly "comrades"!"
"Friend Lu Dao, please stay here and wait for notification from the organization."
After some small talk, half an hour passed before we knew it. Liu Yu said solemnly before leaving.
"I understand, I will wait for orders from the organization at any time."
Having said that, Lu Yi looked at Liu Yu with a very polite attitude.
After all, as a member of the organization, he is now theoretically controlled by it, and the relationship between the two parties is superior and subordinate.
"good!"
After saying a few more polite words, Liu Yu smiled heartily and took Guo Poyun and the others to leave.
Lu Yi, the casual cultivator of Jindan, succeeded in wooing him. The task of adding five Jindan members finally made some progress and completed one-fifth of it.
"Whizzing"
Outside the cave, several piercing sounds sounded in succession, and the place quickly returned to calm.
"Whether it was to win over the Feng family last time or to win over Lu Yi this time, we only took action after having various favorable conditions and grasping enough."
"But the results of the two operations were ultimately very different."
"The most critical factor is that one is a cultivating family and the other is a casual cultivator."
On the way back, Liu Yu secretly thought about the whole story of the two actions and concluded why he failed last time.
"The cultivating families have blood ties, and generally have fixed resource points. The living environment is much better than that of casual cultivating families. The difficulty of wooing the two is not the same."
"It seems that in the future, we will still focus on winning over casual cultivators."
After thinking carefully, he thought silently in his heart.
Bridging the gap in difficulty further tilted the balance in Liu Yu's mind in favor of casual cultivators.
He was keenly aware that if the task was to be completed as quickly as possible, it would ultimately have to fall on casual cultivators.
As for the Immortal Cultivation Family or the Immortal Cultivation Sect, it consumes manpower and material resources, and the final chance of success is not high.
Unless there is a particularly suitable target, it is better to have less contact.
Most of the energy should be aimed at the group of casual cultivators, which is the most correct choice.
"Fellow Daoist Guo, based on the opinions of an ancient person"
With this in mind, Liu Yu sent a message to Guo Poyun to exchange views on the mission.
The order of the Presbyterian Council made it clear that the latter was just a deputy, and he was also very clear about his position, just wanting to take credit for it.
Therefore, Liu Yu often agreed to his decision.
Moreover, the expansion plan of the Purple Turban Army was originally focused on the casual cultivator group, and the cultivating families and cultivating sects were only incidental.
At this time, further determining the focus of the task and reducing investment in other aspects can effectively improve task efficiency, so there is no reason not to agree.
Therefore, with just a few words on the way home, the next strategic focus has been determined and will be implemented immediately after returning.
Soon after, the group returned to the base and routinely summarized the factors that led to the success of the operation.
Liu Yu and Guo Poyun immediately announced the strategic focus adjustment plan.
It is required to divide the rudder up and down, reduce contact with cultivating families and cultivating sects, and focus on casual cultivating.
Of course, he did not forget the agreement. He publicly recognized Tian Xiaoyu's important role in it and gave him a very good evaluation, laying the groundwork for future "promotion and reuse."
With the adjustment of strategic focus, this operation was completely concluded after the meeting.
In the raging flames of war, the Purple Turban Army and other casual cultivator organizations expanded in a low-key manner. When the branch focused most of its energy on the casual cultivator group, the efficiency was indeed improved a lot.
Two tenths, three tenths, four tenths
In this case, task progress progresses steadily.
After the initial exploration, it went much smoother than before and ushered in a period of stable development.
Of course, the whole process is by no means smooth sailing.
Qian Ting hasn't come to the door yet, because the sub-rudder is expanding too fast, touching the territory of other casual cultivators, and frictions and conflicts of all sizes are inevitable.
After all, the left wing is infinitely divisible, and each organization has its own interests and demands, and there are often discords due to various reasons.
But Liu Yu came forward and showed a little strength, and successfully intimidated major organizations to solve the problem.
However, considering all aspects, he just gave me a little lesson.
After all, Qanting Holy Land is the biggest enemy at this time. If "our own people" fight first, it would really be ridiculous.
…
Five years is an extremely long time for mortals and low-level monks.
But for the golden elixir monk's eight hundred years of ultimate lifespan, one retreat is not enough time, as if it is just a snap of a finger.
After adjusting the strategic focus five years ago, the expansion of the Purple Turban Army has achieved very good results, and the current mission progress is only more than halfway done.
Even the Jindan monks have successfully won over three people. If things continue like this, it will hopefully be completed in a few years.
Without exception, these are all Jindan casual cultivators.
Considering the objective conditions and experiencing the first failure of the Feng family, Liu Yu basically gave up hope of winning over the Immortal Cultivation Family and Immortal Cultivation Sect.
Therefore, the focus of the five years is entirely on Jindan casual cultivation.
In order to prevent the news from leaking, Liu Yu moved his base out of Immortal City early in the first year after arriving in Dongzhou and hid it in a low-key manner on a third-level spiritual vein found by the Purple Turban Army.
The branch headquarters is also established here.
Although it is just an ordinary third-level spiritual vein, Liu Yu takes pills for daily practice, which will not affect the speed of his practice.
However, Guo Poyun had already reached the peak of the golden elixir, and he only had time to polish his magic power. His reliance on spiritual energy was also greatly reduced, so he had no complaints.
"Congratulations to fellow Taoists from the ancient city. At this rate, it won't take more than a few years before we can return to the Zixia Mountains!"
In the branch headquarters, in a two-story attic, Guo Poyun said with a smile on his face.
