Chapter 59: .Expansion, continuous expansion

"Sanshu, Sanshu..."
Chen Chaoyan knelt on the stairs, while looking at the palace in the sky, while quietly pulling Chen Jiezhi's sleeve beside him.
Chen Jiezhi first glanced at Mr. Wuyun in front of him, and then turned to look at his niece.
"The palace of King Tang is not so grand, flying in the sky." Chen Chaoyan whispered.
Chen Jiezhi nodded silently.
Aside, the other two Chen family elders felt the same.
At this moment, they sincerely felt that the final choice to come to Chang'an City on the way of being hunted down was indeed the most correct decision in their lives.
Here, not only did their clan be safe, they might even re-emerge and regain everything they had lost from Dongtang.
Guo Zi and Hui Tianyu of the Hanshan School have never seen what Dongtang Palace is like.
But they are also convinced at the moment that there is a bright future for the Hanshan School.
The little girl, now no longer panicking, calmed down, and was looking around curiously.
Mr. Wuyun, with a faint smile overflowing from the corner of his mouth, looked at the people in Qingfu Palace and Jingyue Tower who had been captured.
Zhang Dongyun thanked them from the bottom of his heart, but didn't rush into the original Invincible City with Gu Hechuan, the traitor of Qingyun Guan.
If they come in together, they will not be able to trigger the guard mission, but will be covered up by Gu Hechuan, who has a higher cultivation level.
And now...
[Random Guardian Mission 3.1-Kill or capture the Jingyue Tower elder He Qian and Qingfu Palace elder Shunming Taoist]
[The city lord captures He Qian and Shunming Taoist who entered the city, completes random guard mission 3.1, and obtains 800 points of upgrade experience]
Previously solved the Qingyunguan traitor Gu Hechuan, received five hundred guard upgrade experience, just enough to make up the two thousand points needed for the second upgrade.
And the third time the city is upgraded and expanded, the protection and construction upgrade experience required, and again to improve, each requires 3,000 points.
However, thanks to the two factions of Qingfu Palace and Jingyue Tower.
As soon as the second upgrade and expansion was completed, they sent it to the door to save Zhang Dongyun eight hundred guardian upgrade experience.
In this way, the next upgrade, the guardian upgrade experience only needs 2,200 points.
There are still 100 points in the balance of construction upgrade experience this time, so there is still a shortfall of 2900 points.
After refreshing the task list, a new construction task appeared in front of Zhang Dongyun.
[Construction task 3.1-primary cultural education, the current overall cultural level of urban residents is insufficient, the first step is to reduce the illiteracy rate to below 50%]
It's ok, not much change... Zhang Dongyun said in his heart.
He had previously ordered Tianyu and others to be in the city to search for people who could read and write words.
Knowledge does not need to be high, just a basic cultural level.
The toss is just to prepare for the task now.
However, there is a long way to go...
At present, most of the people in the city are refugees and Tang army soldiers.
The cultural literacy rate is limited, and it is a systematic project to improve.
The current basic education power in the city may not be sufficient.
It is not easy to keep the illiteracy rate below half.
Well, if the standard for illiteracy literacy is the one I set at the beginning... Zhang Dongyun could not help but roll his eyes thinking of this.
He originally set the standard for literacy and literacy to be 1,500, able to do basic reading and writing...
If I knew this, it would be nice to know ten and eight characters.
City Lord Zhang Da regretted not that.
However, in any case, the city once again upgraded and expanded, which made him feel good.
[City owner: Zhang Dongyun
Current range: 16 kilometers from east to west, 24 kilometers from north to south, 8,000 meters above the sky, and 8,000 meters underground
The scope of the city wall: four kilometers from east to west, six kilometers from north to south]
Compared with before, the size of Invincible City in all aspects of space has been expanded four times again.
In terms of its cross-sectional area, or its footprint in this world, it is sixteen times larger.
It has now reached 384 square kilometers.
Compared with Qinzhou Mansion, Longbei County, and Eastern Tang Dynasty, it still doesn't look much bigger.
But every time it expands, the area has increased by sixteen times. If things go on like this, it will soon not be overlooked.
The current coverage of Invincible City has surpassed the entire Baiyunyuan and touched other mountains in Longling.
If you expand further, you should be able to get to the foot of the mountain.
In comparison, the people in the city right now can be considered sparsely populated within the coverage of the entire system.
Zhang Dongyun recalled that he remembered that he would soon have the task of increasing the population again.
You can prepare early and plan ahead.
However, as the population increases, the difficulty of literacy literacy increases.
I'd better finish that elementary literacy task first and earn the construction points.
City Lord Zhang Da sits firmly in the Daming Palace, while calculating, watching the old blood shadow go up the stairs.
The old demon was nervous and went outside the palace gate.
The palace gate automatically opened to both sides.
"Your Majesty." The old blood shadow demon stepped into the palace gate respectfully.
In the Daming Palace, there was no one, only a faint light lingering, a little smoke and clouds circulating.
After the blood shadow old demon passed through several palaces, he finally met Zhang Dongyun who was transformed into the evil emperor in the central hall.
"Free gift."
Zhang Dongyun looked at the old blood shadow demon who was visiting below, and indifferently ordered.
After giving thanks, the old demon got up, took out a few hidden objects, and showed them to Zhang Dongyun above.
"The old slave is incompetent, ashamed of your majesty, and failed to bring the wolf back that day."
The old blood shadow demon first confessed, and then explained: "In the cave, it is not the rebel Yang Li, nor a real Sirius, but... a Sirius spirit."
With the blessing of the Invincible City system, Zhang Dongyun can judge that the other party is telling the truth.
He took the things presented by the old blood shadow demon casually, thinking in his heart.
Demon soul, not a cultivator in the eighth state of the demon path, the demon soul state.
In other words, for some reason, a cultivator of the eighth stage or above of the magical path separated his demon soul of the Sirius.
The devil soul remained in the secret cave, and the whereabouts of the practitioner himself is unknown.
Considering the relationship between the imprints of the fairy trail fragments, the goods should be Yang Li.
The question is, what about Yang Li himself?
There were three things presented by the old blood shadow.
A black orb the size of an adult man's fist.
A piece of fur.
There is also a slate.
That pitch-black orb was the product of the old blood shadow demon defeating the demon soul of Sirius.
The devil soul made Wangzhen Guan a headache, while the old blood shadow demon relied on the secret method taught by Zhang Dongyun to prescribe the right remedy, restraining the opponent, so he caught it.
Zhang Dongyun studied it carefully, and compared to the memory of the evil emperor Ming Tonghui, it can be determined that this Sirius demon soul came from Yang Li.
And that piece of fur should be derived from the magical power of Jin Chan's shelling.
It was a byproduct of Yang Li's separation from the wolf spirit that day.
The reason why the other party spent so much trouble may stem from the fact that the evil emperor Ming Tonghui took a heavy hit during the Xianji Incident.
The injuries that the evil emperor caused to him, like tarsus maggots, made it difficult for him to reincarnate and rebuild.
Giving up the devil soul of the Sirius is similar to a gecko's tail docking to survive.
And on the surface of the stone slab, a mysterious engraving appeared, which was closely related to the fairy trace fragment in Yang Li's hand.
Zhang Dongyun raised his eyebrows lightly.
Yang Li left these things in the secret cave, was he unable to do what he wanted, had no choice, or...
Intentionally?
