Under the refined rules established by Li Hai,
from now on, he would completely disregard whether the residents truly believed in him or not; he would only look at the final statistical results at the end of the month.
If a resident, after living in Guiyou Cave Heaven for a month, failed to meet their monthly KPI,
then Li Hai would give him one chance, allowing him to find a way to improve his Incense KPI the next month.
Whether it was through self-hypnosis or having a group of people around him chant scriptures daily.
In any case, if by the second month, this person still hadn't aligned his granularity with the surrounding group of believers, and still hadn't completed the basic Incense KPI,
then, he would be optimized out and could no longer occupy the position.
Li Hai would, of course, not kill this person; he would simply give him some food, banish him to the outside Cave Heaven, and then recruit new people.
Anyway, there are countless people in this world; if you don't do it, there are plenty of others who will.
It's hard to find a three-legged toad, but isn't it easy to find a two-legged person?
As for whether a sub-personality "parasite" of Anping Xi might sneak into the Cave Heaven during this period, Li Hai was not worried at all.
Because he already had a means to counter the opponent.
This method was also recorded in "Ten Thousand Incense Proves God Dao."
According to the recorded content, Li Hai learned that even the so-called personality, this extremely ethereal 'thing',
because it is born within the soul, no matter how ethereal it is, it will still carry certain characteristics of that soul.
Just as everyone's fingerprints and aura are different, there are also differences between each soul.
Although extremely subtle, in the Divine Thought of a Five Realm Sorcerer, these differences between souls are as bright as lamplight, clear at a glance.
Therefore, as long as Li Hai advanced to the Fifth Realm of Sorcery, regardless of whether he walked the Life God Path or the Non-Life Path, all of Anping Xi's Clones would have nowhere to hide from his eyes.
In short, after setting various rules with these villagers and disaster victims, Li Hai opened the Cave Heaven's gate and allowed them to enter the Eastern Forest Garden.
Its area had now been clearly surveyed by him, roughly a hundred li in circumference, mostly barren land and some sparse grasslands and woodlands.
When Li Hai first stepped into this forest garden, it was quite desolate, with hardly any grass.
But perhaps, it was because he had successfully unlocked it.
So now, the land's fertility and vitality were visibly recovering almost every day, and had even recovered to the extent of lush green grass.
Relying on this land, and the nearly ten thousand fungus cows in the Yao Beast breeding farm Li Hai had previously built, it was more than enough to feed not just these hundred or so people, but even another hundred thousand.
Li Hai himself indeed thought so.
So afterwards, he wandered around various places in the Jing Dynasty, which had already begun to show subtle signs of chaos, for about five days.
He rescued tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of people from various natural and man-made disasters.
Finally, from these millions of people, he recruited ten thousand commoners who were willing to reside in Guiyou Cave Heaven.
Thus, in just five days, the originally desolate Eastern Forest Garden visibly became lively. However, within Guiyou Cave Heaven, only the Eastern Forest Garden was lively; other areas remained silent.
It wasn't that these cave dwellers (Cave Heaven residents) had no desire to explore the land beneath their feet; it was simply because Li Hai had not opened other maps to them.
Unlike the initial unfamiliarity when he first obtained Guiyou Cave Heaven, Li Hai was now extremely familiar with all aspects of this outside Cave Heaven.
Especially with its space-time portals, which he handled with extreme proficiency.
So proficient that allowing any building or map to connect with another was a minor matter that Li Hai could accomplish with a single thought.
At the same time, during this period, to help these ten thousand cave dwellers quickly establish their homes in the Eastern Forest Garden, and also to maintain the basic public order of this small society,
Li Hai also utilized the "True Gang Secret Puppet Scripture" he learned from Lu Qixing, using gold, wood, iron, and copper as skeletons, and Fourth Realm Yang Qi magic power as flesh and blood, to refine three thousand Sorcerer Puppets within the Cave Heaven.
Although these human-like Sorcerer Puppets were not strong in combat, only slightly stronger than people like Guo Huaijin, at most they were at the Acquired Great Perfection level in the Martial World.
But they were more than sufficient for maintaining order in the Eastern Forest Garden and helping the cave dwellers with infrastructure work.
At the same time, during these five days, Li Hai, who had long since learned and mastered "Ten Thousand Incense Proves God Dao," also at a certain moment deliberately avoided the rampant True Qi of the Martial World and elevated his Sorcery Realm to the Fifth Realm within Guiyou Cave Heaven.
Of course, Li Hai ascended via the Primal Spirit Path, not the Life God Path.
As for the Incense Life God, whoever wants to be it can be it; he certainly won't.
As for the object Li Hai chose to refine and entrust his life lamp to, it was precisely that Sky Dome Whip Hammer.
And after completing all of this, he left the increasingly chaotic Jing Dynasty and began traveling towards the Southern Border.
The reason he went there was because Li Hai suspected that the so-called Li Wang God worshipped in the Li Wang Temple of Jin Fu Town was very likely a member of the Nameless Organization, and might even be one of Black Celestial's Clones.
Although this suspicion lacked sufficient evidence, Li Hai just wanted to go and see for himself; otherwise, he would be unwilling.
More importantly, unlike the four regions of Northern Desolation, Eastern Plains, Central Land, and Western Wilderness, the Southern Border is a region nominally belonging to the Martial World, but in reality, it is a blurred border area between the Xia Meng (Chivalrous Alliance) Martial World and the various Southern Barbarian states.
Yes, it is not like the Northern Desolation, where there are natural barriers like the Two Realms Mountain Range separating the Martial World from the Jing Dynasty's land.
The Southern Border and the Southern Barbarian are geographically completely blurred and intertwined.
Even the Heaven and Earth Qi of the Southern Border has become less chaotic and violent due to its proximity to the Southern Barbarian.
However, the Qi there has also gained a few traces of the Southern Barbarian's evil, strange, and turbid nature.
Therefore, the Innate True Qi emitted by Xia Meng (Chivalrous Alliance) Martial Artists in the Southern Border is also affected by this, becoming much weaker.
Or rather, it becomes more inclined towards the Jing Dynasty's orthodox vigorous martial arts.
At the same time, Daoist Magic that cannot be used normally in the other four regions of the Martial World can also be used normally in the Southern Border and even the Southern Barbarian.
However, under the influence of the external evil and turbid Qi, it will also become much more bizarre.
The most direct impact is that Daoist Magic leaning towards the Righteous Path will have significantly reduced power there, while Daoist Magic leaning towards the Evil Path will see a substantial increase in power.
So, in a sense, the Southern Border and even the Southern Barbarian is a paradise for Evil Path Sorcerers.
And just as Li Hai flew tens of thousands of li away from the Jing Dynasty and officially entered the Southern Border region, coincidentally flying over a vast forest, a furious roar with a Lotus Continent accent suddenly echoed in his ears and within thousands of li around:
"A single swing spans three thousand li, there's no one like me in this world!
Li Hai, take this—...Sky-Swinging Decapitation!
Hmph! !"
