Die Ling was very straightforward about what she wanted everyone to do. She wanted everyone to believe in Gu Zheng and even gave them a date when Gu Zheng would meet them.
Even though Gu Zheng knew that Die Ling's ultimate goal was to get people to believe in him, he still couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Die Ling say it so straightforwardly.
"Master, how do you feel?"
After using the World Stone, Die Ling looked at Gu Zheng as if she was asking for credit.
"Don't worry master! Since I've done this, I naturally won't violate the conditions of producing pure faith energy. Moreover, these people will all believe in you! "Die Ling said when she saw Gu Zheng frown.
Gu Zheng smiled helplessly and rubbed Die Ling's hair, "Tell me, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you when we get back to Emei Sect! "
"Cough cough …"
Daoist Qing Xu coughed dryly and attracted Gu Zheng and Die Ling's attention.
"Dao friend Gu, if you want to be intimate, can you leave our Kunlun Sacred Land first?"
Daoist Qing Xu had been waiting for Gu Zheng and Die Ling to leave. He didn't know about the mental communication between Die Ling and Gu Zheng. All he saw was Die Ling looking at Gu Zheng after using the World Stone. Gu Zheng also started to rub her hair as if he was flirting with her.
"Hehe."
Gu Zheng smiled at Daoist Qing Xu and said, "Thank you Kunlun for letting us use the World Stone. What my servant did with the World Stone has nothing to do with the righteous path alliance. You don't need to say anything about it. I'll help Kunlun take back the World Stone from the Demonic Path Alliance and we'll call it even!"
Daoist Qing Xu still didn't know what Die Ling did with the World Stone but he would find out about it sooner or later. Gu Zheng felt that it would be better to tell him about it now rather than waiting for him to bring it up.
"Whatever! I just want you to leave the sacred land now! "
Daoist Qing Xu clearly didn't want to say anything more to Gu Zheng and didn't even ask what Die Ling did with the World Stone. He only wanted Gu Zheng to leave with Die Ling.
Gu Zheng and Die Ling didn't say anything else. They immediately left Kunlun and prepared to return to Emei.
"Master, did Die Ling not do a good job?"
After Gu Zheng learned about the dream, he didn't seem as happy as she had expected. This made Butterfly Spirit a little disappointed.
"It's not that you've done well, it's just that you've attracted trouble!" The artifact spirit said.
"Trouble?" Butterfly Spirit asked.
"You used the World Stone to tell all of the mortals in this plane what you need them to do. I do not doubt the influence of your words at all."
The Artifact Spirit paused for a moment and then continued, "However, the current era is no longer the Age of Chaos, but the Age of Prosperity. Coupled with the Chaos Tribulation in the Primeval Age, many cultivators will descend to this plane. They will pay more attention to the production of pure Faith Energy! It would have been fine if your words didn't have any power, but they did! This is robbing the business of everyone in the entire plane who values the pure power of faith! "
"Master, I only wanted to help you. Did I really do something wrong?"
Hearing the Artifact Spirit's words, Die Ling looked at Gu Zheng with tears in her eyes.
"No, you didn't do anything wrong!"
Gu Zheng smiled and wiped away Die Ling's tears. Since what was done couldn't be undone, then others could do whatever they wanted!
After returning to Emei, Gu Zheng first rewarded Die Ling and then got in touch with the Imperial Court.
Gao Yuan personally came to Emei to talk to Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng told Gao Yuan that he wanted to be a power that the Imperial Court could rely on.
"Senior Gu, you mean to say that you want to be a power that the Imperial Court can rely on, but not the entire Emei Sect?" Gao Yuan asked.
Once the Imperial Court decided to rely on a power, according to the ancient system, the Imperial Court had to worship this power and build a place for this power to receive incense and worship.
Gu Zheng needed incense and didn't plan to stay on Earth for too long. If he didn't do this, then when he built a temple in the future, the statue wouldn't only be of him, but also the ancestors of the Emei Sect.
"That's right!" Gu Zheng said.
"Senior Gu, then what's the name of the place of worship?"
Gao Yuan was actually a little shocked. After all, Gu Zheng's current practice was tantamount to treason in the eyes of some cultivators who had a strong sense of inheritance.
"Since it's only for me, then it's called Ancient Temple!"
Gu Zheng's voice paused, and then he said, "If you can't make the decision on this matter, then go back and ask before giving me an answer."
Gao Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Senior's decision shocked this junior, but it's not unexpected. Before this junior came to Emei, the Imperial Court had already held a meeting about this, so this junior's decision can completely represent the Imperial Court! Senior, please rest assured that Ancient Temple will soon appear in various provinces. "
Although Miaomiao had only used the Boundary Stone today, what she had asked everyone to do in the dream had already caused a huge uproar in the secular world! Therefore, although Gao Yuan was shocked by Gu Zheng's decision, he wasn't surprised.
"Senior, please allow this junior to remind you that if the appearance of Ancient Temple is obstructed by other cultivator forces, this is a matter that requires senior to come forward to solve!"
Gao Yuan was afraid that Gu Zheng would be unhappy, so he had an embarrassed smile on his face when he spoke.
"Since I've become the support of the Imperial Court, I know very well what is within my duty!" Gu Zheng said.
Gao Yuan let out a long breath, "Senior said so, this junior is relieved."
Gu Zheng nodded, and then said, "If there's nothing else, then go back! The other thing you said last time, I'll deal with it in two days. "
When he first met Gao Yuan, Gao Yuan said two things. One was about the crisis of blood qi, and the other was that he hoped Gu Zheng could send someone to deal with it.
At that time, he hadn't said that the Imperial Court wanted to rely on him. Gu Zheng's answer to Gao Yuan was to wait until the crisis of Shu Ruins was over before sending someone to deal with it.
Now that the Imperial Court had agreed to build Ancient Temple, Gu Zheng planned to deal with it personally.
Gao Yuan had said what needed to be said, so he didn't stay in Emei for long. He returned to the secular world in a relaxed mood.
That afternoon, Emei Sect had guests.
There were a total of four people who came to visit Emei, representing two forces. One was Buddhism, and the other was Kunlun.
The two people from Buddhism were Master Huicong and Master Huiming. They both came from the Untainted Land. Moreover, Master Huiming had followed Gu Zheng to support Kunlun Sect, while Master Huicong had rushed to Mount Shu to help when Shu Ruins were in crisis.
The two people from Kunlun were the companions mentioned by Qing Xu Zhenren. The one who was designated as the leader by Kunlun in the Untainted Land was called Qing Feng Zhenren, and the other who accompanied him was called Qing Yu Zhenren.
After welcoming the four people from Buddhism and Kunlun into the main hall of Emei, Qing Feng Zhenren's face became serious after a few simple words.
"Fellow Taoist Gu, what you did this time was inappropriate, right?" Qing Feng Zhenren said.
Gu Zheng naturally knew the real purpose of Qing Feng Zhenren's visit. He smiled faintly and said, "What's inappropriate about it?"
Qing Feng Zhenren frowned and said, "Previously, when you went to Kunlun to borrow the Boundary Stone, Fellow Taoist said that you needed the Boundary Stone for something related to the Alliance of the Righteous Sects. However, what Fellow Taoist's servant did with the Boundary Stone had nothing to do with the Alliance of the Righteous Sects! Although fellow daoist said that this matter was written off with you helping Kunlun take back the World Stone, this matter is a separate matter. We are very grateful that you helped Shu Mountain take back the World Stone, but using the World Stone for personal matters, isn't that a bit unkind? "
By now, the various cultivator powers were already aware of what kind of dreams the mortals had.
"Do you think I'm unkind?" Gu Zheng glanced at Qing Feng Zhenren.
Qing Feng Zhenren was stunned. He thought that Gu Zheng would explain or say something else, but he didn't expect Gu Zheng to ask such a question!
Qing Feng Zhenren clenched his teeth and said, "Yes, I think you're unkind!"
"Then, is Qing Feng Zhenren the only one who thinks I'm unkind, or does the entire Kunlun think I'm unkind?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"Of course, the entire Kunlun thinks you're unkind!" Qing Yu Zhenren was unhappy with Gu Zheng's unapologetic attitude and said.
"Alright, since the entire Kunlun thinks I'm unkind, then the Kunlun Sect doesn't need to look for me if they need food cultivators in the future. Moreover, there are a few Kunlun disciples who use the Emei Pagoda in the Emei Sect. I'll have to trouble the two of you to take them with you when you leave! "Gu Zheng said coldly.
Qing Feng Zhenren and Qing Yu Zhenren were stunned. The matter this time could be big or small, but they didn't expect Gu Zheng to make it big.
"Fellow Taoist Gu, are you trying to make a big deal out of this?" Qing Feng Zhenren said seriously.
Gu Zheng smiled unconcernedly, "No matter how much I've done in the past, just because this matter doesn't satisfy you, you think I'm unkind. So what if I'm unkind?"
Originally, Gu Zheng didn't want to make a big deal out of this matter. However, he understood that Die Ling's use of the Boundary Stone was only the beginning of Qing Feng and the others' discussion. If he was still polite about this matter, then he would have to face a lot of trouble and condemnation.
"Fellow Taoist Gu …"
"Amitabha!"
Qing Yu Zhenren was about to say something angrily, but she was interrupted by Great Master Huicong's Buddhist chant.
"Fellow Taoist Gu has done so many things for the world. Using the Boundary Stone for a private matter is understandable. However, Fellow Taoist Gu's use of the Boundary Stone for a private matter really surprised this poor monk! "Great Master Huicong smiled bitterly.
"Indeed, this poor monk also didn't expect Fellow Taoist Gu to do such a thing!"
Great Master Hui Ming's voice paused and he sighed, "The recovery of Immortal Core Power caused this world to enter the Flourishing Era of Laws. The various large powers also began to care about incense! According to the rules of the Flourishing Era, cultivators couldn't force mortals to worship them. However, what Fellow Taoist Gu's servant did, could it not be considered as coercion? "
There were many cultivator powers in the Flourishing Era. There were also many powers that fought over incense. Later, the Righteous Dao Alliance decided that mortals were free to choose which power they wanted to worship. Cultivators couldn't interfere.
"Every era has its own rules. Using the rules of the Flourishing Era to regulate the Flourishing Era of Laws is clearly impossible!"
Before Gu Zheng could finish speaking, Great Master Hui Ming said, "As the saying goes, follow the teachings of the past! Many of the rules we have now, aren't they left behind from the past? Just like the Righteous Dao Alliance, which has existed since the Flourishing Era, right? Although it's the Flourishing Era now and some things have changed, people can't forget the past! "
"Great Master Hui Ming, since you went with me to support Kunlun, I'll tolerate you this time if you talk to me. However, you must remember that my name is Gu Zheng! I don't like it when someone tries to interrupt me before I can finish my words! Listening to others before speaking is also the basic courtesy of a person! "Gu Zheng said coldly.
"Courtesy? You didn't even greet us and let the people of this world believe in you. Is this your so-called courtesy? We've already been very polite to you. At least, we came to talk to you. Do you think those cultivators from other countries will be indifferent to this matter? They won't have the same courtesy as us! "
Daoist Qing Yu couldn't stand Gu Zheng's attitude. Her face was full of anger.
Gu Zheng suddenly turned his head and looked at Daoist Qing Yu coldly. The energy of heaven and earth was instantly mobilized, forming a pressure that acted on Daoist Qing Yu.
"Listen to me carefully. The name of this world is Earth. Since I, Gu Zheng, became a cultivator, how many things have I done for this world? If you don't know, then go and check it out! With my contributions to this world, is it too much for me to ask for the incense of the mortals? Who do you think you are? Now you come to Emei and tell me what to do? First, you're not a cultivator of this world. Can your contributions to this world be compared with mine, Gu Zheng? Second, considering that the force you belong to in this world is also in the Righteous Dao Alliance, I've already been very polite to you! If foreign cultivators come to Emei and tell me what to do, I'll kill one if there's one, and two if there's two, I'll kill both! "
Gu Zheng's ball of immortal power had mutated. In some aspects, the laws of Earth didn't completely restrict it. For example, when it came to purely mobilizing the energy of heaven and earth to suppress it, Gu Zheng could reach the level of Jin Xian's initial stage! If an ordinary person dared to use Jin Xian's strength to mobilize the energy of heaven and earth to suppress another person on Earth, then they would immediately be locked down by the laws of Earth, which would lead to endless heavenly tribulations.
Gu Zheng's words weren't pleasant to hear, but the pressure he gave Daoist Qing Yu made her feel even more uncomfortable! Daoist Qing Yu was sitting on a chair. Her face was already covered with sweat, and her body was trembling uncontrollably.
"Ugh …"
Daoist Qing Yu let out a muffled groan. In the end, she couldn't withstand the pressure. Her body went soft, and the chair she was sitting on cracked. She sat down on the ground and gasped for breath.
Daoist Qing Yu wasn't invincible against the pressure Gu Zheng gave her just now. However, in order to break this pressure, she had to launch a counterattack! Daoist Qing Yu dared to express her anger toward Gu Zheng, but did she dare to attack Gu Zheng? She didn't dare to! If she attacked Gu Zheng in the main hall of Emei, she didn't dare to imagine what the consequences would be! Therefore, she could only use the strength of the peak of the Void Return Stage to deal with the pressure until she sat on the ground.
"Humph!"
Gu Zheng snorted disdainfully and withdrew the energy of heaven and earth to suppress Daoist Qing Yu. His eyes swept over the other three faces with complicated expressions, and the scene fell silent for a moment.
Killing the chicken to warn the monkey, and provocative eyes! The other three people's minds were also spinning rapidly. All kinds of gains and losses were rolling in their hearts.
