In the outer layer of the void, Jin Zhixing's clone sat upright on a lotus pedestal.
After parting ways with Hunkong Laozu the last time, he did not return to his original body in order to avoid leaking information. Instead, he sat here and waited.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, he felt something strange in his mind. When he opened his eyes, he saw that Hunkong Laozu was already standing on the lotus pedestal opposite him. He calmed down and stood up. He cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Hun Kong. How is that matter?"
Hunkong Laozu returned the greeting. He then flung his sleeve and threw a talisman to him. He said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist, please take this. With this talisman, it can prove that you are a citizen of Shangchen. At the very least, you are a fellow daoist."
Jin Zhixing took a look at the talisman and put it away. He said, "Kim, may I ask when the fellow daoists of Shangchen will launch their attack?"
Hunkong Laozu said, "Fellow Daoist, you should know that although we have accepted you, we do not trust you completely yet. We will tell you when the time is right."
Jin Zhixing smiled and said, "Kim understands. I am just afraid that it will be too sudden and I will not be able to prepare in time. Fellow Daoist, you should know that. After all, I have to find a way to avoid Xian Ding's eyes and ears."
Hunkong Laozu said in a deep voice, "We will inform you when the time comes."
Jin Zhixing smiled and said, "Alright, then I will wait." In fact, he could feel that the time for Shangchen to invade the inner layer was not far away. If there was more time, the other party would not have to deliver the talisman to him so quickly.
Hunkong Laozu cupped his hands. An obscure cloud light was released from his body and this person disappeared. It was obvious that he had dispersed his clone.
Jin Zhixing did not stay here any longer. He looked around vigilantly. Then, he leaped and entered the depths of the void.
Dongting Continent, Dan Port.
Yue Luo walked out of the heavenly boat's deck. She felt the moist sea breeze coming from the surface of the sea. She closed her eyes in satisfaction and only opened them after a while.
After some thought, she summoned the Great Dao Chapter and passed it to them. "Little Ran, Little Ying, Xiaoxiao, I've successfully arrived at the Eastern Court Prefecture."
After a while, Ding Ying let out an "ah" sound and asked nervously, "Xiao Luo, did you encounter any accidents on the way?"
"How could there be? There are fellow Daoists protecting me along the way. Even in the latter half of the journey, there are still cultivators in charge of patrolling the Eastern Court Prefecture."
Yue Luo looked around at the airships that were constantly descending, as well as the pedestrians and guards walking around. She walked from the middle of the road to the side and said, "And from what I see, there are so many people coming and going here. It's not as affected as before."
Currently, Tianxia's population had begun to migrate to Dongting. Dongting was vast. In addition, the north and south sides had enough farmland and pastures. It could even accommodate the entire population of the upper continent.
In fact, even if it was a dangerous and barren land, as long as Xuan Zun was there and was willing to help, it could naturally become a fertile land suitable for living.
Ding Ying said, "Xiao Luo, I heard that Auspicious Light City can shine. Quickly take a look and see if it's true."
Yue Luo looked up and said, "Hmm … it is a bit bright. The light is very gentle. I'm afraid it can only be seen from far away." “
You couldn't see it when you came? "
Yue Luo said, "I came by airship. Because of the turbid tide in the inner layer, distant places can't be seen from the sky. I can only see it by ship."
She looked at the endless land in front of her and said, "It's really vast here, and the scenery is really beautiful. Along the way, there are many places that are barren."
The upper continent of Tianxia was still fine, but outside of the continent, many places were wastelands. Because in terms of time, the inner layer was currently in the midst of the cycle of eras, and all living things were gradually recovering. It was truly rare to see such a large area of natural scenery in Dongting.
Looking at this magnificent scenery, she felt a lot more open-minded, but it was also because she was far away from the evil outside the void.
Ding Ying said with an envious voice, "Xiao Luo, what you said makes me want to go there."
An Ran's voice came at this time, "I just checked it. Auspicious Light City in Dongting is shrouded in light because an ancient god is suppressed below.
This kind of god seems to be able to compete with Xuan Zun. I heard that place is now allowed to enter, and the purpose is to eliminate the fear of the indigenous people for the gods. Xiao Luo, if you have the chance, you might as well go and verify whether this is true. "
Ding Ying couldn't help but exclaim, "An ancient god that can compete with Xuan Zun?" Then she said with a sigh of regret, "It's a pity that we can't see it here."
Yue Luo also showed a curious look, and said, "If it's like what Xiao Ran said, then I really want to go and see it." She comforted Ding Ying again, "Xiao Ying, don't be disappointed. If I can really see that EsGod, I'll find someone to draw a picture and send it to you."
Ding Ying said, "Xiao Luo is still the best."
Yue Luo looked at the passengers who had been on the same boat as her from the start and said, "I'm not going to talk to you guys anymore. I'm going to the Profound Palace to register my name. Let's chat again later." After saying goodbye, she put away the Great Dao Chapter, picked up her luggage, and walked down the platform.
At this moment, above Mount An, Zhang Yu was floating in the air. During this period of time, he had arranged a simple restriction array along the entire mountain range to guard against foreign enemies.
The land bought by the Wen 'an people included the east and west sides of Mount An. It was just that the Protectorate didn't have enough strength to occupy it in the past. Now that the Protectorate had expanded, they could include this area.
He looked at the side of the mountain range, where there were flying boats taking off and landing constantly. The preparations for the construction of Xinzhou had now begun. A large number of materials were transported from the mainland by flying boats and sent here. According to the progress, the construction of Xinzhou would take one to three years.
However, this period of time might not be so smooth.
At this moment, he sensed that Xiang Chun was looking for him. He called out the Great Dao Chapter and said, "Senior Brother Xiang, what's the matter?"
Xiang Chun's voice sounded, "Head Xuan, I've already investigated clearly. The island that the masters landed on last time is a large island comparable to an ordinary prefecture. There are no natives on it. At present, there's only a sleeping spiritual creature. It's not too big of a threat. If this place is occupied, whether it's garrisoning troops or transferring manpower and materials, it'll be convenient."
Zhang Yu asked, "What are the opinions of the Prefecture and the Military?"
Xiang Chun said, "They think that they can set up a fort here. However, because this place is alone on the sea, they need the support of Xuanfu. They hope that Xuanfu can send cultivators to guard it."
Zhang Yu asked, "Can they spare some people now?"
Xiang Chun said, "Recently, Mount An has occupied a large number of people. At the same time, they are responsible for patrolling the sea. Although there are foreign Daoists filling in, it's still difficult to make ends meet. In the past, we sent a group of disciples to Qingyang Upper Continent to study. There are also some disciples outside who are fighting outside. If they can be summoned back, they might be able to fill the gap."
Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said, "I've already set up a formation on Mount An. The Military also has troops stationed there. Some of them can be sent back. The disciples of Qingyang Upper Continent can be summoned back, but there's no need to call back the disciples outside."
In the past, the disciples of Dongting went to Qingyang Upper Continent because they could learn more Xuan methods there. However, after the arrival of Xuntian Dao Zhang, they continued to study mainly to strengthen the relationship between Qingyang Upper Continent and the Protectorate. This was because in the past, the Protectorate relied on Qingyang Upper Continent for many things.
However, the situation was different now. Although the relationship between the two sides still needed to be maintained, there was no need to use this method after the expansion of the Protectorate.
As for the disciples outside, because of Xuntian Dao Zhang, Xuanxiu was now shouldering more responsibilities. Now, the outer layer was also lacking in manpower. Moreover, he knew that the next invasion of Shangchen would come. At this time, it was not appropriate to call back the people inside.
Xiang Chun said, "I understand."
After the conversation ended, Zhang Yu glanced at the depths of the continent again. With a thought, he returned to Mount Qi in the blink of an eye.
However, not long after he returned, a disciple came up to report, "Xuan Chief, Cui Xuanzheng requests to see you."
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Let him in."
After a while, Cui Yue came up and bowed, "Cui Yue greets Xuan Chief."
Zhang Yu nodded back and said, "Cui Xuanzheng, what's the matter?"
Cui Yue said solemnly, "Xuan Chief, many Monk Hunjang have come to the prefecture recently. Some of them were originally transferred from Xuanting. Some of them came because they were attracted by the reputation and wanted to make a name for themselves.
However, if the Monk Hunjang is biased, it's very dangerous. We can't let it go. In order to ensure stability, we wanted to ask Xuan Chief to use some means to warn and restrain this person. "
Although he was a Monk Hunjang, he did not avoid the Monk Hunjang's problem.
Zhang Yu said, "Cui Xuanzheng is right."
Although he had set up the Seal of Loyalty, not every unorthodox cultivator would change it, and not every unorthodox cultivator would practice this seal either. It was necessary to be on guard against any unorthodox cultivator.
He pondered for a while and said, "I'll give a talisman later. Every Monk Hunjang who enters the Eastern Court must have it. This way, they won't go astray without knowing it."
Cui Yue bowed and said, "Thank you, Xuan Chief."
He paused and said, "There's one more thing. After I came to the Eastern Court, I heard about the Gods Recovery Society. I asked Wen Qi and found out that the Gods Recovery Society was behind this. Therefore, I want to organize people to search for the Gods Recovery Society."
Zhang Yu thought for a while and said, "Cui Xuanzheng should know that we're short of manpower recently."
Cui Yue said solemnly, "Therefore, I don't want to use the power of the Xuanfu. Although some of the Monk Hunjang I mentioned have been in the Eastern Court for some time, they've been living in the Wilderness for a long time. The Xuanfu can't fully trust them yet. Therefore, I want to use this to test them."
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Cui Xuanzheng, since you have a plan, go ahead and do it."
Cui Yue was excited to get his approval. He bowed and said, "Yes, thank you, Xuan Chief."
