If he wanted to raise all of them to level 7, it would be an astronomical figure that even Wu Wei did not dare to imagine.
Wu Wei didn’t have to do much throughout the year. He didn’t even have time to make talismans and sell them.
Moreover, not only did they need spirit stones to advance, but this Dao soldier team also needed a lot of money to eat.
For example, the [Giant Elephant Dao Soldier], which was now at level five, had a huge appetite.
Normal grade food could no longer meet their daily energy needs. They needed high-quality food!
However, even if it was high-quality food, they had to eat dozens of catties a day.
This was only his daily consumption. If he cultivated the Thousand Elephants Technique, his appetite would increase by several times or even ten times.
In this case, they basically did not do anything else for a day except eat and cultivate. Moreover, cultivation did not have much effect.
With their current level, they actually needed at least high-quality food to meet their cultivation needs, and it was only for their current cultivation needs.
When their [Thousand Elephants Technique] had all reached the second or third level, the high-quality quality would not be able to satisfy their cultivation needs.
In order to prevent such a situation, Wu Wei set up the [Lost Formation] on all five mountain ranges near Crouching Bull Mountain in the last few days and reclaimed 1,120 mu of spirit.
1,100 mu of these ling fields were all planted with high-quality grain.
He planted all the high-quality seeds, wheat, rice, corn, and sweet potatoes that he had obtained from Hui County. He even specially developed 50 mu of land as a vegetable field.
The growth cycle of high-quality grain was much longer than that of ordinary grain.
Ordinary grains took six days to mature, while high-quality grains took about 18 days.
Three times the time.
Moreover, after 18 days, the seeds would stop for 12 days to recover the soil fertility. In other words, they could only ripen 12 times a year at most, and the yield per mu was only about 1,000 to 1,500 catties.
However, it’s not bad already.
In a year, they could produce more than 10 to 20 million catties of high-quality grain.
Currently, it was barely enough to supply these 523 Dao Soldiers.
In addition, Wu Wei had specially used the soil fertility of a mountain range to cultivate 20 mu of ling fields. These 20 acres of ling fields could barely grow outstanding quality plants.
Wu Wei did not use them to grow food. Instead, he opened up a 20-mu orchard.
In this orchard, Wei used the fruit trees to plant a [ Maze Formation ] that had the effect of purifying the air and gathering spirit according to the array sequence.
According to Wu Wei’s design, if everything went smoothly, the 20-mu orchard could take shape in half a year and bear fruit all year round.
The fruit that grew could satisfy the cultivation of the [Elephant Dao Soldier] and the [Lightning Manipulator].
With that, Wu Wei barely met the basic requirements for the growth of 523 Dao soldiers.
However, this was only enough to satisfy the growth of these 523 Dao-soldiers.
Originally, Wu Wei wanted to increase the number of Dao Soldiers to 3000, but now, Wu Wei’s thoughts were temporarily extinguished.
Forget about the 3000 Dao Soldiers for now. Let’s take care of these 523 first.
It couldn’t be helped. These Dao soldiers were too resource-hungry.
However, although they were eating resources, they were indeed strong.
With such a Dao soldier, even if Wu Wei was not in this mystic realm, Pei Yuan Shao would definitely be able to firmly control Hui County.
It was also because he realized this that Wu Wei gave up on the idea of just making a profit in Hui County and then leaving. Instead, he allowed Pei Yuan Shao to truly take control of Hui County.
In this half a month, Pei Yuan Shao’s focus was on this aspect.
After half a month, it was quite effective.
The so-called effect was that he had already taken over 90% of the land in the hands of the great clans in Hui County.
Then, these fields were distributed to the people of the Yellow Turban camp in the form of rent.
As the tax was only 10% of the total, in half a month, 70% to 80% of the people in Hui County had already obtained land rent from Wu Wei.
In other words, more than half of the people had converted to the Yellow Turbans.
This caused the population of Wu Wei’s territory to increase from 3,000 to 230,000.
And this number was still increasing.
At this rate, it was only a matter of time before the entire Hui County turned into the Yellow Turban camp.
However, Wu Wei didn’t have much time left. It was almost time for the mission to end, so he immediately increased his efforts.
He gave an ultimatum to those who had not yet joined the Yellow Turban camp. Either they joined the Yellow Turban camp or they died!
The reason why Wu Wei had to put on such a posture at the last stage was because he knew very well that this would definitely be one of the factors that would affect the mission evaluation. Therefore, he either did not do it or had to achieve a hundred percent.
Under Wu Wei’s unyielding attitude, Hui County was completely converted to the Yellow Turban camp in just one day.
At this moment, there were only a few hours left before Wu Wei finished his mission.
In the remaining few hours, Wu Wei called Pei Yuan Shao over and gave him two things.
One was Zhao Yun’s [Seven Exploration Coiling Dragon Spear], and the other was a [Spear Specialization] inheritance.
Looking at the things that Wu Wei brought in front of him, Pei Yuan Shao was a little dazed.
“My lord, this is?”
“This is for you. Your current strength is a little weak. Just a single [Mammoth Dao Soldier] can suppress you.. It’s time to increase your strength!”
