Yi Tian had stayed in the Southern Border Ming Wang Road's headquarters for ten years. Although this amount of time was nothing for Yuanying cultivators, it was an extremely important matter for the Ming Wang Road.
In these ten years, the Saint's true body would appear once a year. Furthermore, Yi Tian would appear in public with the help of Grand Elder Wen Xin during many formal occasions. During this period, the most eye-catching people were the candidates for the next Saint's successor, Le Qin and Zhou Chenyang.
In these ten years, their cultivation had increased by leaps and bounds. They were almost at the brink of the Core Formation stage. It was likely that they would be able to step into the Jin Dan stage if an opportunity came along.
Yi Tian also knew that this matter could not be rushed. After the two entered the forbidden zone's array and obtained the Asura Change, he placed a seal on their souls to prevent others from stealing the Ming Wang Road's top secret.
After that, he instructed Le Tong Xuan again and again, leaving the responsibility of nurturing the disciples to her. According to his estimates, Grand Elder Wen Xin only had two hundred years of life left. After that, the authority of the Ming Wang Road would fall into the hands of Zhuge Wufeng and Le Tong Xuan.
Among the two, Le Tong Xuan was considered to be of the same mind as him. Hence, it was also in his interest to leave most of the decisions of the Saint to her.
The eighteen people who failed to be selected were assigned to the Heavenly Brahma Mantra Division. They would be temporarily taught by Grand Elder Wen Xin. They had to be nurtured into the next generation of Ming Wang Road's personal guards.
After these matters were settled, Yi Tian left the Southern Border and rushed back to the Central Region. The preparations for the Li Fire Sect's ascension platform were almost complete. Now, they were waiting for him to return to preside over the opening ceremony.
This was currently the most important project. Yi Tian knew that the construction of the ascension platform to connect to the Upper Realm was not something that could be completed in a short period of time.
Fortunately, everyone had agreed beforehand. As long as he arranged the construction, there would be suitable people to take over the work.
After flying nonstop from the Southern Border to the Central Region's Li Fire Sect for a few months, Yi Tian arrived above the sect's Purple Firmament Hall. He scanned the hall with his divine sense and discovered that there were several people waiting inside.
His figure hurriedly descended from the cloud and arrived at the entrance of the main hall. He saw that most of the cultivators inside had also turned their heads to look at him.
The people leading the way were Mo Wen Tian, Lu Jinyuan, Du Ziheng, Hui Yuan, Hao Ji, Shi Qianwei, Yun Mengyao, as well as the various First Seats of the Li Fire Sect. Half a year ago, after receiving a message from the sect, he knew that all the major sects in the Central Province had received the message and would come here to discuss the project allocation.
Yi Tian smiled as he walked into the Purple Cloud Hall. Then, he greeted everyone one by one and slowly walked up to the main seat. The others formed a circle around Yi Tian and sat down.
After that, Mo Wen Tian, who was seated below, reported, "Sect Leader, this time, our fellow cultivators from the Central State have all come by invitation. We hope that Sect Leader will instruct us on the project of the Ascension Platform."
Yi Tian nodded. Then, he cupped his hands and said to everyone, "With the help of everyone, I believe that the Ascension Platform will be completed on time."
When everyone heard this, they bowed back at Yi Tian. They all said, "We do not dare. Sect Leader Yi, please instruct us."
As such, Yi Tian did not stand on ceremony. He directly took out a jade scroll that he had prepared and handed it to Mo Wen Tian. After the cultivators received the jade scroll, they quickly checked it with their spiritual consciousness before passing it to the next person.
Yi Tian was in no hurry. After all, they would definitely have many questions after the meeting. When the time came, he would have to explain them one by one.
An hour later, when all the cultivators present had finished reading it, the project jade scroll was handed back to Yi Tian.
After a while, Du Ziheng was the first to ask, "Sect Leader Yi, may I ask where the Ascension Platform will be located?"
Yi Tian took out a map of the Central Province. After opening it, he spread it on the ground in front of him. He pointed and said, "It's here."
"The Wan Liu Sect's territory." Du Ziheng looked at it in surprise. Then, she looked like she wanted to say something but stopped herself.
Yi Tian knew what she was thinking. The surrounding cultivators who did not know would definitely have doubts. He smiled and said, "This place was originally the Li Fire Sect's Ascension Platform three thousand years ago. It is now guarded by the descendant of the Alchemy Pavilion's Ancestral Master Wan. I have contacted Wan Yang long ago. When the time comes, I will help him choose a blessed land with rich spiritual energy for him to move to the sect. "
Du Ziheng could not help but nod and said, "That's true. If we build it at the original Ascension Platform, we won't have to worry about the supply of spiritual energy there."
Among them, Du Ziheng was the most important. Other than cultivating, he also had to spend his energy on refining the new Six Paths Boundary Wheel. Therefore, the external Ascension Platform project had to be completed by him. After all, there was no decent array formation other than him. Everyone could help.
Then, Hao Ji asked, "I wonder if Sect Leader Yi has planned how to build the Ascension Platform and how to allocate the manpower and resources."
The others' eyes lit up. The allocation of resources was a huge problem as it involved the interests of the various large sects. If the party that contributed the most, they would naturally have priority in using the resources after the project was completed.
This was different from the Li Fire Sect's situation three thousand years ago. Back then, cultivators from the other sects had to pay a huge price to use the Ascension Platform to ascend.
Hao Ji's words were exactly what the others were thinking. Although they could not participate in the project, the supply of materials was indispensable.
Yi Tian did not answer directly. He took out a jade slip and opened it on the ground. Then, he said, "I have listed all the resources needed for the Ascension Platform. Everyone, please take a look. We will decide how to allocate these things later. "
After saying that, Shu Dao's divine sense quickly scanned the jade slip. Then, everyone's expression turned more and more serious. The treasures listed on the jade slip were at least level five. There was no lack of level six and level seven materials.
Thankfully, Yi Tian had indicated the method to use them and the stage of the project. If not, people would think that they were asking for an exorbitant price.
However, the amount of treasures listed on the jade slip was just too great. To put it bluntly, even if the various large sects in the Middle State were to help, they might not even be able to gather two-thirds of the amount.
Seeing everyone's difficult expressions, Yi Tian said with a smile, "Actually, I know everyone's difficulties. However, this Ascension Platform project is to connect to the Upper Realm, allowing the cultivators of this realm to continue on their Dao path."
Seeing everyone fall silent, Yi Tian spoke again, "The four Fey Monarchs have informed me that they will help with this project. I estimate that they can fill at least half of it. As such, we only need to fill in the remaining half. "
"Then, do they have any additional conditions?" Hao Ji suddenly asked.
"The four Fey Monarchs each need to use the Ascension Platform once. This is also a promise I made to them," Yi Tian replied nonchalantly.
