The total distance from Jinwu City to the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory almost crossed the entire Youzhou Province. They left Jinwu City on the morning of February 6th. After a relaxed flight in the daytime, they arrived at the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect at 7 pm when they finished supper and the sky turned dark.
It had been almost half a year since the opening ceremony of Iron-Dragon Sect was held on August 18th last year. After almost half a year's intense construction, the main peak of Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks in Yangui Mountain Range had already shown a magnificent look.
After hearing that they had arrived at the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect, all the people on the airboat came to the movable deck of the airboat to watch the scenery below.
Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks were located in Yangui Mountain Range over 120 miles in the south of Xuantian City. They were the dragon heads of the entire Yangui Mountain Range. Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks had beautiful sceneries. Before Youzhou Province was promoted to a province officially, it was a scenic spot in Yangui Mountain Range within Northeast Military Region. After making an investigation in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory, Zhang Tie selected the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect in the region where Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks were located.
The main peak of the Mysterious Heaven Eighteen Peaks was the Mysterious Heaven Peak. Looking down from Sky Mountain, the entire Mysterious Heaven Peak was filled with buildings from the foot of the mountain to the top. There were various courtyards, pavilions, halls, fortresses, corridors, pavilions, mountain paths, and stone steps that formed an organic whole. As night fell, the lights in these buildings extended from the foot of the mountain to the top. It looked like a long dragon of lights spiraling up from the foot of the mountain. It was very blurry …
Besides Xuantian Peak, Immortals Gathering Peak which was not far from the main peak was also covered with lamplight. However, the lamplight and buildings on Immortals Gathering Peak were much fewer than that on the main peak.
There was another mountain peak not far from Immortals Gathering Peak. Looking from afar, many airships were hovering over that mountain peak. Although it was already dark, a lot of craftsmen were still building mansions and pavilions on the mountain peak.
When the airboat came close to Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks, it gradually slowed down.
As the head of Iron-Dragon Sect, it was Zhang Tie's first time to see the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect after half a year.
Standing on the deck of the airboat and watching the lamplight in the distance, Zhang Tie couldn't hide his excitement and complex feelings.
This was his Iron-Dragon Sect and his foundation in Taixia Country. Hua people said that one should establish oneself at 30 years old. At the age of 30, he finally established his own undertaking in Youzhou Province. Although the Sacred Iceland Kingdom was good, Zhang Tie always felt that he didn't have a strong sense of belonging when he ruled a group of Slavs in a foreign country as a disguised Hua person. His identity as tsar represented his responsibility and work rather than power and honor. Only in Taixia Country, the continent where Hua people lived and the foundation of his family members could Zhang Tie have a sense of belonging which could calm his restless soul.
…
"I once traveled to Xuantian to visit the immortals, and the clouds rose from the depths of the clouds.
The sun rose to the summit and gazed into the distance. The moon shone on the pines and cranes.
Only then did he see the dragon soaring into the sky, gazing at the phoenix flying over the clear river.
His heart melted with the exotic land of Swallow Mountain; he was shocked by the peak of the sky.
Outside the vast grasses and clear clouds, there was a faintly discernible bird.
Both banks of the river were constantly whistling, calling friends to drink the sacred spring. "
Leaning against the railing, Feng Cangwu looked down. After drinking up a small half jar of "Early Sunshine after Small Snow" and watching the lamplight at his foot in the distance, he couldn't help but recite a poem about an ancient man who came to Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks to seek for immortals.
"Haha, this ancient poem is really good. It describes the scenery and mentions all the names of Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks. What's more, it's appropriate and natural without any craftsmanship …" Lu Zhongming said with a smile, "Xuantian Peak, Immortals Gathering Peak, Chaoyun Peak, Sunrise Peak, Faraway Peak, Moonlight Peak, Pines Peak, Cranes Gathering Peak, Dragon Soaring Peak, Hanyu Peak, Flying Phoenix Peak, Qingchuan Peak, High Sky Peak, Boundless Peak, Outer Clouds Peak, Misty Peak, Green Screen Peak and Immortal Spring Peak. I've heard about Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks in Guzhou Province.
I've heard about Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks when I was in Guzhou Province. When I heard the song of a bird, I thought it was a bird calling friends to drink the immortal spring. If it's a fight, even 1 million people who wrote this poem could not defeat a knight; however, it's out of our ability to write a poem so naturally! "Mountain Lifting Hermit said as he shook his head.
"Hahaha, each of us has our own specialties. If only we fight and kill in the vast rivers and mountains of Taixia Country, it would be monotonous like a drawing board with only one color. These literati and poets make the world more wonderful …" Bai Zhengnan, Bai Suxian's elder brother, said with a smile, "Zhang Tie is really good at choosing a good place!"
After hearing Bai Zhengnan's words, they all looked at Zhang Tie as they found that Zhang Tie looked a bit strange when he was watching Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks not far away.
At this moment, Zhang Tie was indeed thinking about something else. Since he saw Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks and the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect in front of him, Zhang Tie had suddenly recalled Donder's words when he worked in a grocery store in Blackhot City. "Hua people say that good people don't enter politics; merciful people don't command troops; righteous people don't run businesses.
Zhang Tie, you're too kind and always stick to your principles. Therefore, you could barely make great achievements in politics, military or business. If you do a small business in the future, I'm afraid that you could only be a small boss at my age. If you want to make further progress, you'll have to get help from the God. I see that you're very enthusiastic about the customers. You can talk about the commodities that you're familiar with clearly and logically. You're really talkative. With this character, you might be able to find a teacher at school and live a comfortable life. If you're determined to be a priest like Sun Dynasty, you might be able to make a great achievement. You don't need to worry about having a good life … "Zhang Tie sighed and said," It's said by Hua people that good people don't enter politics; merciful people don't command troops; righteous people don't run businesses. Zhang Tie, you're too kind-hearted and principled. You could barely make great achievements in politics, military or business.
This was Donder's judgment about Zhang Tie's future before Zhang Tie gained Castle of Black Iron. Zhang Tie had to admit that Donder had a sharp vision. After so many years, Zhang Tie had been a businessman, a soldier, a governor of Hurricane Corps and the dean of the Provincial Court of Youzhou Province for a few days in Taixia Country. It seemed that Zhang Tie had been doing all these for too long.
Strangely, being a businessman, Zhang Tie was supposed to make money. However, when he helped Donder run the grocery store and sold rice brew for his family, he was in the poorest condition. He even wanted to split a copper coin into two. Donder always said that Zhang Tie was not a businessman. During the past few years, when Zhang Tie helped Donder run the grocery store, Donder would always hand over the entire grocery store to Zhang Tie when Donder went out to fool around. According to Donder, if Zhang Tie was really a businessman, he could definitely raise the prices of the commodities sold in the grocery store when he met new customers. The extra money would belong to him. However, Zhang Tie always sold the commodities according to Donder's price and never filled his own pockets with money. Additionally, because the grocery store was close to the railway station, there would be many people coming and going every day. Many of the customers were pioneers, who would leave Blackhot City by train after buying things in the grocery store. Additionally, it was very unlikely for them to return to Blackhot City. It was easy to judge the identities of these customers. If Zhang Tie was more cunning, he could make more money from them and put it into his own pocket. However, Zhang Tie had never done that. From this point, Donder judged that Zhang Tie would have a limited future in business.
In Donder's words, it was a shame for a businessman to be so poor that he couldn't even afford a bread and butter, which cost more than ten copper coins, every day, even though he had the right to choose his own goods.
As a soldier, Zhang Tie almost lost his life. After taking charge of Hurricane Corps, he stayed behind to cover the rear of the corps. He didn't really command the corps in battle. Finally, he preferred to return to Taixia Country alone as a commander.
As the dean of the Provincial Court of Youzhou Province, Zhang Tie was also an official. However, he couldn't stand the intrigue and intrigue in the officialdom. Therefore, he gave up.
These experiences in business, commanding troops and politics brought Zhang Tie too little. Some of them were even fatal lessons for Zhang Tie.
Today, Donder's judgment about Zhang Tie was coming true step by step from a certain perspective. Zhang Tie's greatest achievement was really from the three paths of business, politics and commanding troops.
— — His achievement was to found the Sacred Iceland Kingdom and Ancient God Church.
— — His achievement as a "teacher" was to found Iron-Dragon Sect and became the head of Iron-Dragon Sect. He recruited a lot of apprentices and laid the foundation of Iron-Dragon Sect in Taixia Country.
Zhang Tie felt much more comfortable than those experiences in "pretending to be a" teacher "or" pretending to be a teacher ". Actually, there were many similarities between" a "teacher" and "a" fraud ". If a" fraud "didn't talk about doctrines and statues, most of them could be teachers; if a teacher wanted to preach his belief, the teacher would be a fraud.
Watching the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect in front of him, Zhang Tie figured it out at once. At the same time, he had a bizarre feeling inside, 'Do I really have to be a teacher in Iron-Dragon Sect and pretend to be a fraud in the end?'
'Donder really pretended to be a "prophet"!'
"What's wrong?" Bai Suxian on Zhang Tie's side asked Zhang Tie thoughtfully, which pulled Zhang Tie back from his thoughts.
Zhang Tie turned around and threw a glance at the onlookers as he revealed a smile towards Donder, "I've just recalled what you told me in Blackhot City. It seems that you're right. I really don't have a bright future in business, politics and army. I'm not as good as my elder brother in business; I was framed and almost lost my life in politics. The Gobbling Party and Heavens Reaching Church both hate me to the core. I'm not interested in leading troops either. I'm afraid that I could only lead a lot of apprentices to fool people in my life. Additionally, I feel a bit comfortable!"
Donder became stunned for a second. Closely after that, he recalled what he had told Zhang Tie. After throwing a deep glance at Zhang Tie, he revealed a bizarre expression, "When you can lead apprentices to a certain realm, they would be like the top 6 sects in Taixia Country. When a sect reaches that realm, it would be like an immortal dynasty. You could have everything you want. A lot of people would do business, politics and army for you. You don't need to admire others …"
Gold and Power Law didn't take the relationship between master and apprentice as its organizational form was utterly different than that of common sects. Therefore, Donder didn't include Gold and Power Law in his words.
Zhang Tie replied with a smile, "It's too far-fetched to say that I'm a top 6 sects. I'm not so ambitious. Actually, I founded Iron-Dragon Sect because I don't want others to bully me. I just want to find something for myself. By the way, it would be better if Iron-Dragon Sect could help the people around me live better lives and contribute to the holy war between humans and demons." After hearing Zhang Tie's words, the onlookers exchanged a glance with each other.
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, all the onlookers exchanged a glance with each other as they revealed various smiles. Some shook their heads; some nodded. If it was said by others, they would not believe it; however, after staying with Zhang Tie for so many days, even Bai Zhengnan felt that Zhang Tie's words were sincere. Zhang Tie was really a person who could be easily satisfied. Take this immortal bloodline and secret method that Zhang Tie exposed in the rotating chakra ceremony as an example, the effect of which was completely shocking. Zhang Tie intended to warn others that he would not bully others. If an ambitious person had such an ability, he would never expose it to the public; instead, he would definitely stir up troubles with this ability and do a lot of things secretly.
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem When Zhang Tie talked, the airboat had already arrived at Xuantian Peak, the main peak of Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks. On the hillside of Xuantian Peak, the airboat slowly landed on a semi-natural and artificial platform which covered about 3 square miles. A lot of people had long been waiting for this airboat to land on this platform.
The moment the airboat landed, the hatch door of the airboat was opened. Zhang Tie had walked out of the airboat.
At the sight of Zhang Tie, Lu Yishan, the owner of Threerocks Building Business Group in Dashang City, Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory had deeply bowed towards Zhang Tie with a lot of people, "Master, I'm Lu Yishan!"
Watching this new airport and those well-proportioned buildings on Xuantian Peak in the distance, Zhang Tie nodded inside as he felt that he had chosen the right person. It seemed that Lu Clan was really the right person to be responsible for the construction of Iron-Dragon Sect.
All the buildings on Xuantian Peak had maintained the beautiful natural scenery of Xuantian Peak to the utmost extent. Meanwhile, those newly built buildings were perfectly integrated with the natural environment. Even though Zhang Tie was not familiar with architecture, he could also see that everything here had been meticulously designed by famous architects. No wonder his disciples kept praising the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect after seeing him in this rotating chakra ceremony. Even Mountain Lifting Hermit felt that it was not bad.
"Well, don't be so courteous. You've worked hard over the past half a year. Lu Clan really didn't let me down!"
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Lu Yishan felt much lighter as he replied, "It's my pleasure. It's the honor of Lu Clan to work for master. The first phase of construction on Xuantian Peak, the main peak of Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks has been completed. The entire Xuantian Peak could accommodate over 3,000 people. All the palaces, courtyards for master and elders, living areas for master's direct disciples and all the supporting facilities of the first phase have been completed!"
"According to the plan, how many people could the facilities of Xuantian Peak accommodate at most?"
"It's just the first phase of construction. If necessary, there are many places from the foot of Xuantian Peak to the top of Xuantian Peak which could be expanded with new courtyards and buildings. The entire Xuantian Peak could accommodate about 50,000 people. If disciples and servants could squeeze in, Xuantian Peak could accommodate about 80,000 people!"
"Not bad!" Zhang Tie nodded as he glanced at those typical Hua style buildings on Xuantian Peak from top to bottom, saying, "Let's accommodate 50,000 people in the later phase of Xuantian Peak. It's not necessary to make it too crowded. According to the current scale of Iron-Dragon Sect, it's enough for the first phase of construction on Xuantian Peak. As for the other buildings and facilities of Xuantian Peak, it depends on the situation!"
"Yes, master! Do you want to make an inspection tour? "
"No need. We've already seen these facilities and buildings on Xuantian Peak carefully on the airboat. How about the construction of Immortals Gathering Peak and Pines Peak?"
After throwing a careful glance at Bai Suxian, Lu Yishan said meticulously, "Erm … the construction of Immortals Gathering Peak is the responsibility of Princess Bai's subordinates. Threerocks Construction Business Group is just helping Princess Bai's subordinates or providing some building materials. Elder Gan has just selected Pines Peak a few days ago. We're building the mountain road from Pines Peak to Xuantian Peak. We're also flattening the ground on Pines Peak. We've already taken out the drawing and are waiting for Elder Gan's decision …"
After hearing Bai Suxian's words, Zhang Tie had known that Bai Suxian's subordinates had already taken over the construction of Immortals Gathering Peak. Of course, Lu Yishan dared not oppose the subordinates of Lord Guangnan's Mansion. Of course, he dared not interfere with the construction of Immortals Gathering Peak. Immortals Gathering Peak was chosen by Bai Suxian herself. Because Immortals Gathering Peak was close to Xuantian Peak and carried the word "immortal" in its name, Bai Suxian said that Immortals Gathering Peak was destined to be her base in Iron-Dragon Sect.
Mountain Lifting Hermit's common name was Gan Yanlai. Although outsiders called him Mountain Lifting Hermit, they called him Elder Gan inside Iron-Dragon Sect just like Elder Qingfeng of Heavens Fortune Sect. Qingfeng was the honorific title of an elder in Heavens Fortune Sect while outsiders called him Deyang Immortal.
