"The scenery in Taixia Country is truly different than that in Motian Realm. There are so many marvelous things here; especially after arriving at Pingzhou Province, I feel that Pingzhou Province is more prosperous than other provinces and prefectures …" Bian Heng told Zhang Tie on his side as he watched the passing mountains, rivers, land, cities and villages below his feet.
There were over 10 viewing decks on the Xuanyuan-level airboat, which could meet the needs of different people. The viewing deck where Zhang Tie and Bian Heng were at was the highest point at the head of the airboat, where they could enjoy the most comprehensive sceneries. The deck was surrounded by a circle of crystal cover which had been processed by alchemy. When viewing the sceneries here, they didn't need to worry about being exposed to wind and sun; at the same time, they could have a panoramic view of all the mountains.
'I wonder whether Emperor Xuanyuan used to enjoy the great rivers and mountains of Taixia Country from here?'
Zhang Tie thought as he answered, "Pingzhou Province is one of the nine immortal provinces of Taixia Country. The nine immortal provinces of Taixia Country are all the elite regions of Hua people. Each province has tens of billions of people. Their prosperity couldn't be matched by other provinces and prefectures. However, when you arrive at Xuanyuan Hill, you will see the most prosperous and magnificent city in the world!"
"It's really strange. There are so many people and cities in Taixia Country; however, nobody could form an immortal chakra and promote to an immortal emperor!" Bian Heng shook his head as he let out a sigh, "It seems that there are gains and losses. It's unimaginable that an immortal palace could have so many people in Motian Realm!"
Although they were chatting on the viewing platform, they were still using battle qi. Because the content of their conversation was not suitable for the third person to know. This was also Bian Heng's habit after coming to Taixia Country. When there were others around, Bian Heng would pay attention to his words; however, when he was with Zhang Tie, he didn't care so much. He just said whatever he wanted to say.
"Taixia Country has a large population; however, there's no Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring in this world. A knight would have no way to become a sage-level knight. In this world, you've already formed your sage-level chakra and are already top powerhouses …"
"Top my ass!" Additionally, you've long drunk Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring. Now, the entire Mountain Ruins is in your hand. I don't understand why you don't let your wife drink some Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring. Yun Zhongzi has already taken you as his master sincerely. From then on, he would follow your order completely. He could also drink some Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring. Why don't you give some to him? As long as they promote to immortal emperors, wouldn't your subordinates be more powerful? Even if they could promote to immortal emperors, they wouldn't pose any threat to you. By then, you would definitely be more powerful than them … "Bian Heng glared at Zhang Tie with a weird look, saying," In Motian Realm, you could kill demon emperors as easily as chopping melons and vegetables.
The reason that Bian Heng and Jiang Mingyue agreed to serve as employed elders of Jinwu Palace was that Zhang Tie had reached a gentleman's agreement with them — — as long as they could serve as employed elders of Jinwu Palace for 100 years, they would serve Jinwu Palace for 100 years. After 100 years, if they determined to return to Motian Realm, Zhang Tie would gift them two portions of Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring when they returned to Motian Realm.
Of course, it had nothing to do with Zhang Tie whether Bian Heng and Jiang Mingyue could establish immortal palaces in Motian Realm or not. It depended on their own abilities.
Bian Heng and Jiang Mingyue who couldn't resist the allure of Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring fell into Zhang Tie's trap.
Zhang Tie shook his head as he didn't answer Bian Heng; instead, he asked Bian Heng, "How do you feel about Taixia Country now?"
"Not bad. What do you mean by this?"
"Taixia Country is indeed not bad. But if I let them drink Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring, do you think that Taixia Country could maintain the current situation?"
Bian Heng instantly thought of something as he asked, "You mean …"
"After drinking Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring, they could see the future of cultivation. It might be a good path for them; however, in the long run, it might not be good for Taixia Country and humans. A general's success comes from the sacrifice of thousands of lives, not to mention the birth of an immortal emperor." Zhang Tie looked forward with a profound look as he continued, "If there was Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring in this world, Taixia Country would have long been divided into numerous immortal palaces' territories instead of being a country like today. As long as a country like Taixia Country was divided, how could it resist demons in the holy war? From then on, the rise of powerhouses in Taixia Country and humans would have to fight for territories first so as to grab a slim chance to form immortal chakras. Like now, even if I let Fei Qing and Yun Zhongzi drink Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring, if they don't establish immortal palaces, they would not be able to absorb the strength of the Realm of Thoughts; how could they promote to immortal emperors? If they establish immortal palaces, do you think that Taixia Country could remain peaceful? Even if they establish immortal palaces in other continents or subcontinents instead of in Taixia Country, they would also face endless troubles … "Zhang Tie let out a sigh as he continued," As long as Fei Qing and Yun Zhongzi form immortal chakras, Zhang Clan of Jinwu Palace would only have two ways: to conquer the world and unify humans; or to become the common target of humans and demons. It's not impossible for humans and demons to join hands with each other to deal with Jinwu Palace. What's more terrifying than demons is people's hearts. No matter which way we choose, our Zhang descendants would never have a peaceful life … "
If one wanted to form his immortal chakra, he had to absorb the power of the Realm of Thoughts. The power of the Realm of Thoughts was composed of various emotional energies with different properties in each thought. In the Realm of Thoughts, these energies seemed to be everywhere; actually, when one formed his first immortal chakra, only a very small part of the energy in the Realm of Thoughts could be used. In order to produce such kind of energy, one had to establish an immortal palace and a belief.
After forming the first immortal chakra and promoting to an immortal emperor or a deity, theoretically, one could form another 8 immortal chakras. However, in fact, nobody or demon could form the second immortal chakra, including all the powerhouses of humans and demons in Motian Realm.
The strength of the Realm of Thoughts required to form the second immortal chakra was not limited to the energy of belief produced by immortal palaces; instead, it could absorb the energy of the Realm of Thoughts of other attributes. Although it seemed easier to form the second immortal chakra, the key to form the second immortal chakra was the realization of the universal laws on a higher level. Without this, one could not form the second immortal chakra at all.
In Motian Realm, Zhang Tie had the support of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace; in this world, he had the support of Ancient God Church. The Ancient God Church that Zhang Tie founded by pretending to be a fraud became his reliance for promoting to an immortal emperor. The two immortal palaces could constantly provide the strength of the Realm of Thoughts for Zhang Tie to form the first immortal chakra.
Strangely, although the number of believers of Ancient God Church was less than that of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, Zhang Tie found that the energy of faith provided by Ancient God Church was even greater than that of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in the realm of thoughts, not knowing whether the believers of Ancient God Church were more fanatical.
"No wonder you promised to give us Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring on the condition that we're willing to return to Motian Realm after 100 years …" Bian Heng gritted his teeth as he rubbed his face and took a look at Zhang Tie, saying, "Why do I feel being screwed by you …"
"Ahem … ahem … you think too much!" Zhang Tie replied with a solemn look.
Bian Heng was about to say something when the sound of regular footsteps and knocking on the door came from behind them.
"Come in …" Zhang Tie said without turning around.
Zhang Chenglei entered as he bowed towards Zhang Tie and Bian Heng respectfully. Closely after that, he told Zhang Tie, "Father, the imperial palace of Xuanyuan Hill has sent a message that the populace in Xuanyuan Hill has known that you're coming to Xuanyuan Hill. The entire Xuanyuan Hill has been in an uproar. Over 100 million people have poured into those airports outside Xuanyuan Hill since the day before yesterday. As there are too many people in those airports, the imperial palace is afraid that you'll be unhappy. Therefore, they want to remove the no-fly zone of Xuanyuan Hill and have the airboats directly land in the square outside the imperial palace. What do you think about that?"
Zhang Chenglei, Zhang Tie's eldest son, who had killed two sage-level knights in Taixia Country and destroyed three camps of demons the moment he came back, as his eldest son, Zhang Chenglei, Zhang Tie, was more in awe of Zhang Tie.
Before promoting to a knight, Zhang Tie was their idol. When they really promoted to knights, especially earth knights, Zhang Chenglei, Zhang Chenglei and his brothers realized how powerful their father was.
Zhang Tie watched Zhang Chenglei with a smile as he asked, "Chenglei, what do you think the imperial palace means?"
After being silent for a short while, Zhang Chenglei threw a glance at Zhang Tie before plucking up his courage and saying, "I think it's a test from the imperial palace!"
"Why do the imperial palace test me?" Zhang Tie continued to ask calmly.
Zhang Chenglei gritted his teeth as he replied, "Because it's said across Taixia Country that you want to be the new Emperor Xuanyuan. Of course, people in the imperial palace are flurried. Only Emperor Xuanyuan could have Xuanyuan Hill remove the no-fly zone and land in the square outside the imperial palace by airboat …"
