"It's news from Jing Hai. When he went to the South Sea to train, he discovered that the people of the 72 Islands of the South Sea were secretly digging up a ruin in the sea. After he dived over, he discovered that they were digging up a big city. And in this big city, there was a painting that he brought back. Now, I want to take a look and see if it's the City in the Sky," Abbot Wu Yu said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing Abbot Wu Yu, the people of the Iron Buddha Temple didn't speak. They knew that if this news was brought back by Jing Hai, then it shouldn't be fake. Everyone knew that Jing Hai went to the South Sea to train some time ago. Moreover, they were very confident in Jing Hai. This was because Jing Hai's actions in these years were very important to the development of the Iron Buddha Temple.
Before long, Elder Wu Yu returned and handed over the information in his hand to Abbot Wu Yu. Abbot Wu Yu also quietly looked at the information to determine if the painting that Zhao Hai brought back was Sky City.
Sky City was a very sensational topic in the Sword Spirit World in ancient times. Legend has it that Sky City was a floating island that suddenly appeared in the sky before ancient times. This floating island was very large and had been floating in the sky for a thousand feet above the ground. Moreover, no one knew when this floating island appeared. It was as if it suddenly appeared in the sky.
This floating island wasn't always motionless in the sky. Instead, it was always moving. It would constantly float in the Sword Spirit World. No one knew how it moved. Some people said that the wind was blowing it, while others said that it wasn't. This was because such a large island couldn't be moved by the wind at all.
In the beginning, no one dared to set foot on the floating island. Later on, people became bolder and bolder. Cultivators began to enter Sky City. They discovered that not only was the island rich in spiritual qi, there were also many rare treasures. Most importantly, there was nothing threatening on the island. This discovery made the ancient cultivators overjoyed. In a short time, countless cultivators ran to the floating island to plunder the rare treasures. Because of this, countless cultivators began to fight each other, resulting in countless casualties.
In the end, even the major sects at that time were mobilized. For the ownership of the floating island, there were several battles that resulted in countless deaths. In the end, when the major sects saw that it wasn't a good idea to continue fighting, they finally decided that the major sects would work together to develop the floating island. Then the disciples of the major sects would enter the floating island on a large scale.
Later on, all the treasures on the floating island were plundered clean by the major sects. There was nothing good left. In the end, the major sects decided to build a city on the floating island. Whether it was ordinary rogue cultivators or disciples of the various sects, they could all cultivate on the floating island. However, they had to pay a fee.
In the beginning, the city built by the major sects was very small. It was only a small city with about 100,000 people. However, as more and more people came to the floating island, the city became bigger and bigger. Moreover, cultivating on the floating island was indeed faster than cultivating on the ground. In the end, several powerful cultivators who grew up on the floating island united countless cultivators and directly announced that Sky City would belong to them. It would no longer belong to the major sects and there was no need to exchange crystals with the major sects.
When this news came out, the major sects naturally couldn't accept it. Both sides fought. However, with so many cultivators entering the floating island, the major sects weren't able to gain any advantage. In the end, they could only acknowledge the independence of the floating island.
Once the floating island became independent, it immediately began to expand on a large scale. In the end, it built a city that could accommodate millions of people and was named Sky City. Moreover, the cultivators in Sky City were able to cultivate faster due to the rich spiritual qi in Sky City. The strength of Sky City grew stronger and stronger.
In the end, Sky City's strength was above the major sects and became the most powerful force in the Sword Spirit Plane. At this time, the Devil Dao suddenly flourished in the Sword Spirit Plane. This was because a spatial rift had appeared in the Sword Spirit Plane. From time to time, Devil Qi would emerge. This Devil Qi made the strength of the Devil Dao cultivators in the Sword Spirit Plane soar. However, at the same time, the Devil Dao cultivators became less and less human. They turned into all kinds of demons. Then the Devil Dao cultivators launched a war against the major sects in the Sword Spirit Plane.
When the people of Sky City saw this, they brazenly took action. They joined forces with the major sects in the Sword Spirit Plane and launched a war against the Devil Dao cultivators. This war lasted for a hundred years before the Devil Dao cultivators were defeated. The spatial rift was forever sealed. No one even knew where the spatial rift was.
After this war, Sky City ushered in a greater opportunity for development. The entire Sky City became the most powerful sect in the Sword Spirit Plane. Naturally, its development was better. Legend has it that when Sky City was at its peak, there were tens of millions of cultivators living in it. It was worthy of being called the most powerful force in the Sword Spirit Plane.
However, such an incomparably powerful force suddenly disappeared overnight. No one knew where Sky City went, and no one saw the people on Sky City. It just disappeared and never appeared again. This became one of the biggest mysteries of ancient times.
In ancient times, people were looking for Sky City because they wanted to know where it went. Of course, it was also because of the treasures in Sky City. People could imagine that there were countless treasures in Sky City. If one could get one, even if it was only a small part, then one would immediately become the richest person in the Sword Spirit Plane. From then on, one wouldn't have to worry about cultivation.
Wu Yu carefully looked at the information. This information was actually very complete. Only a large sect with a long history like theirs could have this kind of information. It was impossible for the emerging forces of the Southern Sea's 72 Islands to have this kind of information.
After looking at it for a while, Wu Yu finally stopped. Then he looked up at the crowd and said, "It's Sky City, it's Sky City!"
Upon hearing Wu Yu's words, everyone became excited. They had all seen the information about Sky City. However, they didn't expect that they would be able to know about it in their lifetime.
Abbot Wu Yu took a deep breath and chanted the name of Buddha in a low voice. His expression returned to normal. Then, he looked at the others and said softly, "Amitabha. Senior brothers, don't be too greedy."
When everyone heard Wu Yu's words, they were all stunned. Soon after, they chanted a Buddhist chant and slowly calmed down. Wu Zui looked at Wu Yu and said, "Senior Brother Abbot, how should we handle this matter?"
Abbot Wu Yu looked at everyone and said, "What do you think?"
Wu Yu said, "Sky City is too important. I'm afraid that the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea have all been dispatched. With our strength, it's impossible to divide Sky City equally with the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea. Therefore, there's only one way, and that is to follow the method of the labyrinth."
Abbot Wu Yu looked at the others and said, "Junior Brothers, what do you think?"
The others whispered the name of Buddha and then said, "Senior Brother Wu Yu's words are reasonable."
Abbot Wu Yu nodded and said, "Amitabha. Seeing Senior Brothers like this, I'm very happy. Senior Brothers haven't been blinded by greed. This matter will be handled according to the previous plan. Senior Brother Wu Yu, Senior Brother Wu Guo, please go to the Myriad Buddha Temple and tell them about this news. Let's see what they think."
Wu Guo and Wu Yu nodded. Then Wu Yu said, "Our Iron Buddha Temple also needs to prepare. As long as the Myriad Buddha Temple knows about this news, they will definitely take action. However, I'm afraid that the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea won't give in so easily. Also, we have to guard against the Sea Exploring Sect and the Profound Sky Sect."
Wu Yu said, "Senior Brother, will the Sea Exploring Sect also participate in this matter? They have a good relationship with our Iron Buddha Temple. I don't think they'll participate in this matter. "
Wu Yu whispered the name of Buddha and said, "Our relationship is good, but their relationship with the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea is even better. Moreover, they must help the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea. Otherwise, the Southern Sea Alliance will cease to exist. With the shrewdness of the Sea Exploring Sect's Sect Master, Sword Nine, it's impossible for him to do such a thing. Therefore, they will certainly help the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea. However, if the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea would rather die than hand over Sky City, then the Sea Exploring Sect and the Profound Sky Sect will certainly not help them. They will help the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea in order to get more benefits, not to risk their lives against us. Therefore, we don't need to worry too much."
"Yes, Senior Brother. Senior Brother, this matter was discovered by Jing Hai. Don't you think we should give him more rewards? Jing Hai has made a lot of contributions to our Iron Buddha Temple. "
"Now, there's no need to reward Jing Hai. He has made too many contributions, so we can't reward him anymore. He cultivates the Iron Buddha Lotus Body, which is our Iron Buddha Temple's Cultivation Method. Moreover, he doesn't use any artifacts, just the Golden Body Ten Thousand Transformations Technique is enough. We can't promote him to the position of the Ten Core Disciples, that would be too eye-catching and would break the peace of the Ten Core Disciples. However, we can give him some privileges as a reward."
Regarding Zhao Hai's reward, Abbot Wu Yu had a headache. Zhao Hai had made a lot of contributions to the Iron Buddha Temple. If he didn't reward him, then it would be unreasonable. However, what should he reward him with? He can't let him become one of the Ten Core Disciples, that wouldn't be enough to convince the masses and would break the balance of the Ten Core Disciples. Artifacts? He doesn't need them. His Cultivation Method is already the best. Aside from that, what else can he reward him? Contribution points? Zhao Hai still has several hundred thousand contribution points that he hasn't used yet. What's the point of rewarding him with more contribution points? It's better to give him some privileges. Perhaps this would be the best reward for him.
Wu Zui looked at Abbot Wu Yu and said, "Senior Brother, some time ago, I received news that the Sects in the Demon Domain will send their disciples out to establish their own Sects. Normally, it seems like they don't have anything to do with the Sects, but if something really happens, I'm afraid that these Sects will merge with the Main Sect. Can we do the same?" Abbot Wu Yu nodded and said, "Yes.
