After entering August, Wang Wei sent the third annihilation progress report, and the time of annihilation was again advanced by two months - three years and eleven months.

Gu Zuo informed the research and creation team of the progress, and everyone understood one thing more clearly. Annihilation is indeed accelerating. In fact, it is not three years and eleven months, but less, probably less than

Three years, even less than two years.

News came from the north that since there was no Chongxuan Office, the practice world was becoming more and more chaotic. Large-scale sect fighting broke out in many states and counties. The root cause of everything was to snatch the spiritual stones.

What touched Gu Zuo the most was that among the eighteen major sects that divided the world, there was a second sect that fell—Zuo Shenmen.

Zuoshenmen is located in the northeast of Jiangnan East Road, and the richest Shuzhou county that was enfeoffed is Kuaiji County, where the ancestral court of Huaixian Pavilion is located. Their problem is that the sect's foundation is not deep.

Lin Meihai, the head of the Zuo Shenmen, was practicing Xu and was summoned to Zhongnan Mountain by the Chongxuan Department. Lin Meihai's wife was Huang Shenyan who had attacked Gu Zuo on Zhongnan Mountain. Although Li Mi didn't like Huang Shenyan and even said it in public

Huang Shenyan was not allowed to take another half step up Zhongnan Mountain, but at this moment, Lin Meihai must take his family with him, and the Chongxuan Department could only hold its nose and admit it.

After Lin Meihai and Huang Shenyan ascended with the Chongxuan Department, there was only one old Nascent Soul left in the Zuo Shenmen. Unlike Qingcheng and Luofu, they still had a lot of Lianxu and Nascent Souls left.

Two Nascent Souls were in charge, and the number of Jindan monks was not as good as other sects, so a crisis arose.

The Lanting Sect, Liulin Sect and Dushan Sect of Kuaiji County took the lead and gathered eighteen sects to attack the Zuoshenmen. Due to the haste, the Zuoshenmen mountain-protecting formation was broken by thousands of monks from Kuaiji County before it could be opened.

At the mountain gate, most of the disciples were killed or injured, and the rest fled.

As a result, Linwu Mountain changed hands and was occupied by monks from Kuaiji County, and the Lingshi Mine also fell into the hands of various factions in Kuaiji County. It is said that in this battle, Luo Xindi, a golden elixir monk from Liulin Sect, showed great talent and his fighting skills were amazing, and he became famous in one battle.

, vaguely known as the first female swordsman in Jiangdong.

Senior Sister Luo also entered the Golden Elixir. Gu Zuo couldn't help but feel in a trance, remembering the unbearable past in Kuaiji County.

The destruction of Zuo Shenmen sounded the alarm for Gu Zuo. This critical moment was definitely not the time to begrudge spiritual stones. He immediately ordered to increase the number of Tiandu arrays that were open on weekdays from one to two, and expanded the no-fly area.

At the same time, the two Liangyi Sword Light Arrays on the South Main Peak and South Second Peak were also activated, ready to deal a thunderous blow to possible rebels at any time.

In addition, Gu Zuo also deployed a red cloud fire formation on the north and south banks of the Dongxi River to strengthen the protection of the Xihe Gym.

In addition to activating the magic circle to keep it running, Gu Zuo asked Cheng Shanhu to strengthen the guard force at the south entrance, north entrance and Dongxi exit of South Wuzhou, and increased patrol posts around it. At the same time, he once again told the research and innovation team to strictly prevent the news from being leaked, and never

Don't let outsiders know what they are doing.

The only one who truly knows the purpose of refining the magic circle is this research and development team. The rest of the people only know that they are refining the materials for the magic circle, what kind of magic circle they are refining, and what the function of the magic circle is. No one knows.

In addition to strengthening the alert, Gu Zuo also assigned Wang Sanhe, Zhao Xianglu and Jia Gui and others to start purchasing and hoarding food. Wang Sanhe was responsible for Yizhou, Zhao Xianglu was responsible for Jiangnan, and Jia Gui was responsible for Lingnan. These three places are

The main grain-producing areas have extremely abundant yields and are easier to purchase.

In addition, Gu Zuo also sent an offer to Dongting Dispatch. In addition to fulfilling this year's Lingmi purchase agreement in advance, he also wanted to increase purchases as much as possible.

After two months of exploration, the research team led by Deacon Gu officially completed the refining of the first array plate material, a moiré composite stone, weighing ten kilograms. The moiré composite stone is the main material for refining the base of the Panlong Pillar.

Material, the successful refining of this composite stone greatly boosted the morale of the other groups.

By the end of September, a research team at the Eight Formations Gate of Pingdu successfully refined the Wind Spirit Liquid, which will be the raw material for the wind blades blown out by the Panlong Formation in the future. As long as enough Wind Spirit Liquid is stored, it can form a sharp blade on Zhongnan Mountain that day.

Like a strong wind.

The good news continues, the Nanhua faction also quickly conquered their first level and refined rainbow glue. This glue is the most suitable spiritual glue for the integration of various parts of the Panlong Pillar. It is refined from six kinds of demonic beast glue tendons.

There are fifteen highly difficult steps to complete. The successful refining of rainbow gum has directly raised the Nanhua Sect's magic circle refining level to a higher level.

From then on, various new materials and new technologies began to appear like mushrooms after a rain, and the level of magic circle refining in Southern Wu State entered a new stage.

By the beginning of October, the progress of the world's annihilation sent by Wang Wei continued to accelerate, and it was still three years and six months before the world was destroyed.

The golden autumn of October is also the season for receiving goods. Although the world is being annihilated, this year is hotter than previous years and the rains are more frequent. According to Yi Xing and others, this is the reason for the intensification of moisture. Next year will be even hotter and rainier.

There will be more, which will have an impact on the output of wheat and millet, but for places where rice is grown, it will be a good year with good weather.

The southern states had a bumper harvest, and Southern Wu Prefecture was no exception. In addition to the normal taxes, Gu Zuo also levied a 10% "counter-rebellion tax", and through massive purchases, he received 60,000 shi of rice.

Eight thousand stone rice filled the granary in Southern Wu Prefecture.

Of course, Gu Changshi's popularity dropped slightly because of this, and he couldn't control that much. He even planned to implement grain rationing, perhaps starting from the end of next year.

In addition to the local people in Nanwu Prefecture, Wang Sanhe, Jia Gui, and Zhao Xianglu also overfulfilled their procurement tasks. Wang Sanhe purchased 20,000 shi in Jiannan Road, Jia Gui bought 15,000 shi in Lingnan, and Zhao Xianglu's performance was the most outstanding.

, bought back a full 45,000 shi. In addition, Zhao Xianglu also pulled back the Dongting Sect’s spiritual rice quota for this year, and bought an additional 3,000 shi.

Master Gao Changjiang and his apprentice continued to focus on their work as masons, and hurriedly built a huge granary to store all the grains in it.

When Gu Zuo visited the newly built granary, he said to Gao Changjiang: "Old Gao, you have worked hard for me and my disciples over the years. After coming to Nanwu Prefecture, in addition to building a house, you still need to build a house... But don't worry,

You will know in the future that you will be right to follow me, Gu Zuoqian!"

Gao Changjiang said: "The hard work is not hard. In the past few years, several of my disciples have been building foundations one after another, and their craftsmanship has become more and more refined. This is a good thing... By the way, I was about to report it to the master of the hall.

, I have recently gained some enlightenment about building a house, and am ready to go into seclusion and get some golden elixir."

Gu Zuo said happily: "This is a good thing, Lao Gao. When you come out of seclusion, I will give you a banquet to celebrate!"

Gao Changjiang said that he was in retreat. At his age, it was indeed not easy to have hope of forming elixirs. In fact, he really accumulated a lot of energy but only had a small amount of hair. He came out of seclusion in a month.
