At last, the final divine power… perfected. In this way… the entire "TianGang Thirty-six Method" has been cultivated to the level of perfection.
"Phew~" Xuanqing opened his eyes.
When all thirty-six divine powers were cultivated to the level of perfection, he discovered that an effect similar to the Three Flowers Gathering At The Top had occurred.
These thirty-six divine powers… were connected, and it seemed as if there was a link between them.
In this situation!
As long as one divine power is used, the remaining thirty-five powers will also be triggered, and their strength will be added together, forming the effect of Tiangang.
"In other words… using any divine power now will have thirty-six times the effect!" Joy filled Xuanqing's eyes.
He never expected.
That cultivating the "Tiangang Thirty-six Method" to perfection would produce such immense benefits.
"Let's give it a try… the power of perfect level TianGang thirty-six divine powers!"
Xuanqing was eager to give it a try.
The next moment.
The perfect level Ground-Gold Light!!
Accompanied by a flash of brilliance, he felt the surrounding space flicker as he disappeared from Black Wind Mountain in an instant.
The next time he reappeared, he was above Sha City at the border of the Black Wind Country.
At this moment.
On the city walls of Sha City, countless people touched the surface or communicated with the spirits of the fallen warriors, or remembered their own families.
The streets of the city were bustling yet orderly.
The ground was very clean, with trash cans every two or three hundred meters, and a security pavilion every one thousand meters.
The various shops along the roadside sold all kinds of grain, oil, rice, noodles, snacks, and restaurants.
"In an instant, I traveled from Black Wind Mountain to Sha City. This speed… would be equivalent to moving tens of kilometers per second if converted to kilometers."
"The distance between Water Blue Star and the Moon is 380,000 kilometers. With my current speed… it would take just over an hour to travel from Water Blue Star to the Moon."
Xuanqing silently calculated his own speed.
It would take just over an hour to travel around the entire Water Blue Star as well, which had a circumference of only 400,000 kilometers.
In other words…
Xuanqing could now appear anywhere on the Water Blue Star in just over an hour.
With such a speed.
Even the fastest aircraft in the real world would likely be left far behind, surpassing the limits of what real-world technology can achieve.
"This perfect level Ground-Gold Light is definitely much faster than the Somersault Cloud!" Xuanqing's eyes were shining.
It's worth mentioning that.
The so-called "traveling 108,000 li in one somersault" does not mean that such a long-distance can be reached in an instant.
First of all, the phrase "108,000 li" doesn't refer to a specific number, but rather it means a very long distance.
For example… the journey to the west is fraught with difficulties, covering 108,000 li, but it doesn't mean that there are exactly 108,000 li from the Tang Dynasty Empire to the Peacock Dynasty. Instead, it describes the distance between the two places being very long.
There are many similar phrases, which will not be listed one by one here.
Of course… these are all digressions.
Back to the story.
After testing the Ground-Gold Light, Xuanqing found a secluded place to test other divine powers from the "Tiangang Thirty-six Method."
The final result was very satisfying to him. No matter which divine power he used, the other thirty-five would support it, with the power increasing by at least tens of times more.
After completing the tests.
Xuanqing returned to Black Wind Mountain.
Entering his Taoist temple room, sitting cross-legged on the futon, and setting up a protective formation with a casual wave of his hand.
Everything was ready.
With one thought.
"Exit the game!"
Real World.
Qingping Mountain.
Xuanqing opened his eyes, detaching from the game.
In an instant.
He felt a surge of pressure from all around, as if the entire space was trying to squeeze him out.
However.
For Xuanqing, who had already become a Flawless Golden Immortal, this pressure only made him feel nauseous and uncomfortable, but it did not cause any harm.
"This Heaven and Earth Will… really makes one annoyed!"
Xuanqing shook his head.
This squeezing feeling was like a fly constantly buzzing around a person, causing annoyance and confusion.
"Cold and Eternal, Silent World, serene heart, I am the only god, unite mind and spirit…"
After reciting the "Serenity Spell," he managed to suppress the nauseating feeling deep within his heart.
Afterward.
Xuanqing thought about the planting of the Ginseng Fruit Tree in his heart.
He had just condensed his Immortal Body when he first felt the pressure from the Heaven and Earth Will of Water Blue Star. Now that he had broken through to the Flawless Golden Immortal, this feeling of pressure had increased a hundredfold.
"If I plant the Ginseng Fruit Tree on the Water Blue Star… I'm afraid I will have to deal with the Heaven and Earth Will of the Water Blue Star first!"
"But the key is, I was counting on the Ginseng Fruit Tree's ability to absorb Chaotic Qi and turn it into Spiritual Qi to devour the Heaven and Earth Will of Water Blue Star."
Xuanqing furrowed his brow.
For a moment.
It was like an awkward situation where he couldn't leave the house without a mask, but he couldn't get a mask without leaving the house.
In his plan, he would use the Ginseng Fruit Tree's ability to change the environment and create a Cave Heaven and Blessed Land effect to open up the Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Ways.
Ultimately, by controlling the Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Ways, he would be able to perfectly replace the Heaven and Earth Will of the Water Blue Star, devouring it with minimal impact..

It can be said… the Ginseng Fruit Tree is absolutely an irreplaceable part!
With a thought.
The Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling was taken out of the Game Backpack.
In an instant.
The feeling of space squeezing around became even more intense. Obviously, just one Flawless Golden Immortal already made the Will of Heaven and Earth go crazy. Coupled with the Ginseng Fruit Seedling, one of the ten great spiritual roots in the Game World.
In this kind of… collision of rules between the two worlds, the Will of Heaven and Earth simply can't accommodate such a strong impact.
Seeing this scene.
Xuanqing thought to himself that it was as he expected.
"Take!" He took the hovering Ginseng Fruit Seedling and put it back into the Game Backpack.
He looked at the distant sky, his eyes seeming to penetrate the atmosphere and reach the cratered surface of the Moon.
"Once I perfect the Thirty-Six Heavenly Arts, I'll take a trip to the Moon!"
Xuanqing thought with some anticipation.
It can be said… every modern person must have an impulse to explore the mysterious space and the mysterious moon.
However, this impulse, with the growth of age, is gradually shattered by the trivialities of reality. The pressure of housing loans, car loans, betrothal loans, and various loans leaves people out of breath and loses that innocence.
The next moment.
"Earth Leaping Golden Light!"
With the blessing of the perfect level of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Arts.
Xuanqing's entire body was covered in dazzling golden light, as if bathing in a golden ocean.
Immediately after, at a speed difficult to observe with the naked eye, he shot towards the direction of the Moon.
In this process.
The gravitational pull of Water Blue Star was nothing compared to the overwhelming feeling of space squeezing around for the Flawless Golden Immortal Xuanqing.
Fast!
Very fast!
He discovered that on Water Blue Star, using Earth Leaping Golden Light was even more powerful and effective than in the Game World.
The speed had at least doubled!
That is to say, by using Earth Leaping Golden Light here, it would not take two hours, but only an hour to travel from Water Blue Star to the Moon in space.
Seeing this situation.
Xuanqing was surprised, but also very happy. After all, no one wants to waste time on boring commutes.
Eagle Sauce Country.
A certain special treatment center, also affectionately called Area 51.
A supercomputer is monitoring the movements on Water Blue Star through a satellite in space.
In the chair in front of the supercomputer, a young white man in a white protective suit and gold-rimmed glasses is sitting.
He was boredly swiping short videos and commenting on the hot pants girl on it.
Suddenly.
[Beep… Attention please! Unknown object detected, approaching R-5iam Satellite.]
[Beep… Attention please! Unknown object detected, approaching R-5iam Satellite.]
A series of piercing sounds rang out in the observation room.
Thump-
Phone fell to the ground, the outer screen shattered, and the hot girl on it was still dancing.
The young white man with glasses looked at the situation on the monitor, his face full of astonishment.
"Oh….my~god!!"
The young white man was horrified and didn't pay attention to the phone on the floor that was still playing sister's hot dance. He directly picked up the pager behind him.
"Oh- Someone come quick, you won't believe what I found… Damn, this has to be real, get Dr. Mike over here, now…."
Bzzz-
A current sound rang from the pager.
Only then did he realize that he hadn't changed the channel, and the conversation just now hadn't been sent out at all.
The young man angrily pounded the table.
"Huff-"
After taking a deep breath, he organized his words in his mind and adjusted the pager in his hand to the correct frequency.
"This is May Kiel, code name…. observed… approaching R-5iam Satellite, be careful…very fast, faster than a rocket, oh- I swear ever seen…."
it's the fastest thing I've
He quickly said what happened, and after getting a response, he turned his attention back to the monitor.
The series of data observed on it made him wonder if the observatory equipment was malfunctioning.
"Oh my god- What on earth is this? It's hard to imagine!" The young man murmured, filled with astonishment.
Apart from Eagle Sauce Country.
On Water Blue Star, the other superpowers basically also have advanced satellites, and naturally, they too discovered this scene.
All the scientists' faces were filled with confusion and shock.
With all their knowledge, they could not guess what kind of object could possess such speed… this was not something that current technology could achieve.
Of course.
The higher-ups of one country, however, were very calm.
In a nature reserve within Yan Country, a very secretive base had been built, similar in function to Eagle Sauce Country's Area 51.
Researchers remaining in the observation room who discovered some unknown presence in Changling City, Yan Country that managed to escape Water Blue Star's gravity at a terrifying speed, heading towards the moon…
"Holy shit, what the hell is going on?"
The researchers were horrified and quickly reported the situation to the base's higher-ups.
However.
Apart from slight surprise, the base's higher-ups simply told them not to worry about it, as if they had already anticipated it.
Facing such a bizarre response from the higher-ups.
The researcher seemed to think of something, his eyes widening as large as copper bells.
In his mind, he instantly recalled the live broadcast not long ago that shook the entire Yan Country.
Unfortunately, this broadcast was quickly overshadowed by numerous other stories of celebrities getting married, cheating, and breaking up, quickly fading from public attention.
But for researchers like them, they always kept it in mind.
"Huff-
I
The researcher took a deep breath, his eyes rolling around as he muttered under his breath:
"I remember back home there's a Taoist temple; I'll have my mom go worship this month!"
Regardless of the impact on the bases of the various superpowers in Yan Country due to Xuanqing's unbridled display of speed,
let's just focus on the present situation.
Slightly more than an hour later.
Xuanqing arrived on the moon.
The scene before him was foggy all around; if an ordinary person were here, visibility would probably be less than ten meters.
It was quite different from the moon's landscape portrayed in movies and television dramas.
Of course.
The craters created by meteorites on the ground were similar to what was recorded.
"So this is the moon… Aside from a weak gravitational pull, the oppressive feeling from Water Blue Star has completely disappeared."
Xuanqing closed his eyes and carefully observed the surrounding environment.
However… for him, these things were insignificant; the most important thing was to try and see if the Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling could survive here.
With a thought.
He took the Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling out of the Game Backpack.
Humming-
Without the suppression of Heaven and Earth Will, the Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling's aura was completely released, causing the surrounding space to become somewhat distorted.
At this moment.
If scientists were to witness this, they might think that the Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling was some kind of supermassive metal, otherwise, they couldn't explain the space distortion.
Xuanqing knew.
The reason for the distortion of space was due to the clash of different world rules.
Then.
He planted the Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling in a hole created by a meteorite.
Although there was no water or oxygen on the moon – the essential conditions for life – the Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling was different, as it didn't rely on nutrients from the real world. Instead, its roots directly pierced into the Endless Chaos and absorbed Chaotic Qi to survive.
"Activate a 100-year time acceleration!"
Xuanqing cast a time acceleration on the seedling planted on the moon, using only 100 years for the first attempt, just to be safe.
[Beep… -1000 Ingot!]'
As one thousand ingots were deducted, the Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling trembled slightly but didn't show any other reaction.
However.
Xuanqing still had a smile on his face.
Because… upon closer inspection, one could see that the leaves of the Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling had become a bit more lush green than before.
The reason for only a slight tremble and not showing any other reaction was that a mere hundred years was not enough for the growth of a spiritual object at the level of the Ten Great Spiritual Roots of Heaven and Earth within the Game World.
The next moment.
"Activate a 10,000-year time acceleration!"

Translator: 549690339
[Beep… -100,000 ingots!]
With the deduction of 100,000 ingots, a whole 10,000 years of time acceleration is bestowed upon the Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling.
This time.
It's not like the previous negligible effect.
The Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling, as if it had ingested Jinkela, began to tremble wildly, and its branches and leaves turned green at a visible speed.
Then.
Tree roots began to branch out and spread around densely, exuding an indescribable Dao charm.
"This is… the roots are about to pierce into the Endless Chaos!" Xuanqing was fully focused, not even blinking.
He wanted to see how, in the Real World, the Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling pierces into the Endless Chaos, and how it was different from when he became the Chaos Body and connected his physical body to the Endless Chaos.
10,000 years in time.
For ordinary beings, it usually only appears in vows, such as "love you for 10,000 years," and is a very far-reaching figure.
But a mere 10,000 years, to the Ginseng Fruit Tree, which is a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root, is nothing more than an instant, and even still within its infancy.
A moment later.
10,000 years of time acceleration was completed.
Xuanqing covered the tree with his God Soul, but found that although its roots had grown out, they were still a certain distance from entering the Endless Chaos.
Without any hesitation.
"Use 10,000 years of time acceleration."
[Beep… -100,000 ingots!]
Anyway, the time acceleration function, when used on plants, only requires 10 ingots per year, and at such a low price, it is of no consequence to the current Xuanqing.
In an instant.
The roots of the Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling… were growing wildly, and in a blink of an eye, they reached a depth of about 100 meters underground.
Crack…. crack
Accompanied by an irritating scratching sound, like claws rubbing against glass.
He could clearly feel that the massive root system seemed to break through some obstruction and enter a silent void.
At this moment.
Xuanqing was fully focused, and the Divine's flower was also brought out just to observe the Endless Chaos connected to the Real World.
However… No matter how he observed.
He couldn't figure it out and could only faintly feel that the roots of the Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling had pierced into the Endless Chaos, with nothing else.
On second thought.
Now he is only in the Flawless Golden Immortal Realm, and although he seems to be very powerful, there is still a huge gap between him and the level of 'Endless Chaos'.
It's like someone who hasn't even graduated from elementary school attending lectures at a top-notch university trying to make sense of it all – they probably could understand the beginning's "start of class" and the end's "dismissal," but that's about it.
"Forget it, if I can't observe it, then I can't."
"Let's refine this Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling first!"
Xuanqing muttered softly.
Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for a Flawless Golden Immortal like him to refine such a Heaven and Earth Spirit Root like the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
But this Ginseng Fruit Tree… is still in its seedling state, and if done properly, it can still be refined.
With a thought in mind.
The Divine's flower bursts forth its full Power of the Soul, enveloping the Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling that is now over ten meters tall.
"Refine!"
Buzzing-
The Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling trembled, initially trying to resist, but upon sensing the Chaotic Qi in Xuanqing's body, it stopped resisting and instead cooperated with the refining process.
Upon seeing this.
Xuanqing's mouth curved slightly upwards.
This is why he waited for the Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling to take root in Endless Chaos before refining it, so as to reduce the difficulty of refining.
However… Even so.
He didn't dare to be careless, concentrating his spirit and imprinting his God Soul little by little into the tree's heart.
About two days later.
With a tremor from the Ginseng Fruit Tree, a successful God Soul imprint had been made in the tree's heart.
"Phew-"
Xuanqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Although it only took a short two days, refining the Ginseng Fruit Tree was so difficult that it left him quite exhausted, especially mentally.
Fortunately… he had successfully refined it now.
At the same time.
Information about the Ginseng Fruit Tree appeared in his mind.
Three Yuan-years to grow, three Yuan-years to mature, and finally, three Yuan-years to bear fruit… meaning that it takes a full Nine Yuan Hui for the Ginseng Fruit Tree to bear fruit.
It's worth mentioning that.
From Taiji, two instruments were born, and from two instruments, four images were born.
One Yuan is divided into twelve Hui, each Hui lasting 18,000 years, and one Yuan Hui has a lifespan of 129,600 years.
This means that it will take over 1.16 million years for this Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling to bear fruit.
The subsequent process of nurturing the fruit is easier: 3,000 years to bloom, 3,000 years to bear fruit, and 3,000 years to mature.
If it were an ordinary person, waiting for the fruit to mature in over a million years would probably be pointless.
But as for Xuanqing, using time acceleration on a plant only cost him a little more than 10 million ingots.
"Eleven million ingots are acceptable!"
Xuanqing thought to himself.
Compared to the 100 million ingots it took to exchange for a Ginseng Fruit, 10 million ingots didn't seem like such a huge number anymore.
With a thought.
"Use 10,000 years of time acceleration."
[Beep… -100,000 ingots!]
The roots of the Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling rapidly grew in size, and the trunk expanded at a visible speed. Numerous branches and leaves sprouted from the tree crown..

What's more important is.
During the growth process of the Ginseng Fruit Tree Seedling, a familiar energy was also excreted by the leaves.
After feeling this familiar energy.
Xuanqing's heart was delighted.
Spiritual Qi!
Heaven and Earth spiritual energy!
"In this case, by the time the Ginseng Fruit Tree is fully mature, the entire Moon might have become a cave heaven and blessed land."
Xuanqing couldn't help but think of Longevity Mountain.
He had learned from his casual conversation with Great Immortal Zhenyuan that in ancient times, Longevity Mountain was just an ordinary high mountain.
It was only after the Ginseng Fruit Tree was relocated there that it gradually transformed the mountain into a cave heaven and blessed land.
Although the Moon being a blessed land wouldn't allow him to practice directly on it, the feeling of creating a blessed land with his own hands would give him a unique sense of achievement.
Perhaps… this penchant for farming is a characteristic deeply rooted in the true spirit of every Yan Country's people!
Of course.
Apart from the sense of achievement.
He had an immature idea about the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy nurtured by the Ginseng Fruit Tree, and how to proceed needed careful consideration.
Shaking his head.
He thrust the messy thoughts out of his mind.
"Continue."
Xuanqing muttered in his heart:
"Activate 10,000-year time acceleration!"
Moments later.
The effect of the 10,000-year time acceleration ended.
Compared to ten million years of time, 10,000 years were still too short.
Without any hesitation.
Xuanqing continued to use time acceleration on the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
"Activate 10,000-year time acceleration."
[Ding… -100,000 ingots!]
Moments later.
"Activate 10,000 years…"
[Ding… -100,000 ingots!]
• •
In this way, the cycle continued until twenty 10,000-year accelerations were used before stopping.
The reason he stopped.
It was not because he ran out of ingots, but because the endless Chaos Space that the root system of the Ginseng Fruit Tree connected to had been exhausted.
Even if he continued to speed up, he wouldn't be able to absorb a bit of Chaotic Qi, so there was no point in it.
"I can only wait for this piece of Endless Chaos Space to recover before I continue to accelerate." Xuanqing shook his head and thought to himself.
Of course.
He was already very satisfied with the result.
Twenty 10,000-year time accelerations added a full two hundred thousand years of growth time to the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
That meant that after just five more times, the Ginseng Fruit Tree would be fully mature and ready for fruit harvesting.
At this moment.
Around the Moon.
The originally dark gray misty atmosphere had been dyed white by the massive spiritual qi exuded by the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
Xuanqing closed his eyes and sensed it.
From the center of the Ginseng Fruit Tree, spreading out tens of kilometers in diameter, the concentration of Heaven and Earth spiritual energy… was already almost the same as the Black Wind Mountain before it became a Blessed Land.
However.
The spiritual qi was visibly diffusing as well. If left unchecked, it would soon become less dense and eventually vanish completely.
Xuanqing's brow furrowed slightly.
In the subsequent 'Human Path' plan, the spiritual qi nurtured by the Ginseng Fruit Tree played a crucial role, and it must not be allowed to dissipate into the universe like this.
Fortunately.
He had some achievements in the Formation aspect, starting from the Five Elements Talisman Array and never falling behind.
Locking Spirit Formation!
This formation emerged in Xuanqing's mind.
Unlike the Gathering Spirit Formation, the Locking Spirit Formation did not have the function of gathering spiritual qi, but it could lock a space and ensure that the spiritual qi would not dissipate.
He couldn't quite remember the origin of the formation…maybe, it was congratulatory gifts obtained at a banquet in the Game.
No sooner said than done!
Then.
He took out the materials for arranging the Locking Spirit Formation from his Game Backpack.
Within moments, a Locking Spirit Formation was set with the Ginseng Fruit Tree at the center, covering an area of tens of kilometers in diameter.
Looking at the no longer dissipating Heaven and Earth spiritual energy.
Xuanqing nodded in satisfaction.
"Tree, you just stay on the Moon, and I'll go back to the Water Blue Star to get you some ingots-"
After saying that.
He cast Earth Leaping Golden Light, left the Moon, and flew towards the blue planet.
An hour later.
Xuanqing, who was crossing the void on his way home, suddenly frowned, stopped, and felt several gazes peering at him.
"Courting death!" Xuanqing's brow furrowed, his fingertips forming seals.
Manifestation of Heaven and Earth!
The gigantic palm, resembling a world-ending force, appeared once again, this time appearing in the void between the Water Blue Star and the Moon.
The giant palm's thumb and index finger…aimed at the probing thing…gently pinched it, reducing it to dust.
"A mere satellite, ignored before, dares to push its luck."
Looking at the satellite fragments pinched back by the giant palm.
Xuanqing sneered.
In fact.
Earlier, when he flew from the Water Blue Star to the Moon, he had already sensed the existence of these satellites.
It was just that he was looking forward to planting the Ginseng Fruit Tree seedlings and, in addition, because he was using Earth Leaping Golden Light, he would only be seen as a ball of light even if he were caught…
So, he didn't bother with those satellites.
Now that the Ginseng Fruit Tree had been planted and there was nothing else to do, he casually crushed these spying satellites.
On Water Blue Star.
On the other side of the Atlantic Ocean… the Beautiful Country.
Inside a certain white building, a Caucasian researcher wearing a white research uniform was playing a video on a computer..
Report chapter Comments
Chapter 245: Chapter 237: The more devout the faith, the more Spiritual Qi is drawn in through Jieying. 3
Translator: 549690339
The scene in the video was rather blurry.
One could barely see a golden light moving at a terrifying speed from Water Blue Star's atmosphere towards the moon, and then disappearing without a trace.
After the video finished playing.
The researcher played another clip with a time stamp about two days later. A golden light appeared again, quickly flying from outer space towards Earth.
However, just a few seconds later… the screen suddenly stopped, following a gigantic hand, and lost signal.
Downstairs.
Sitting in a chair… was a man in a suit with a sturdy frame and a tuft of yellow hair, who was the base director.
Behind the base commander sat a dozen staff members, all of whom had sparse hair and appeared to be extremely intelligent.
However.
When they saw such an outrageous scene… they looked at each other in shock, even suspecting it was some kind of joke.
"Shit, are you sure this isn't a movie trailer?" The base commander cursed, his eyes filled with suspicion.
"Oh… You are the great base commander, how could I dare deceive you?" The researcher held his forehead, then explained:
"I know you might not believe it, but it is indeed true."
"Right… after analysis, this huge hand is the same as the one that took away Yan Country's meteorite before."
Upon hearing this.
"Damn… This must be a new weapon developed by Yan Country."
"Could it be they've also captured starry sky creatures?"
"Commander-in-chief, I suggest we increase infiltration of Yan Country's agents!"
The staff members expressed their opinions one after another.
Upon hearing this.
The base commander fell into deep thought, his eyes flashing with a mysterious color, not knowing what he was thinking.
• •
• •
Let's leave aside the Beautiful United Nations and the thoughts of many other countries.
Here.
Qingping Mountain.
Xuanqing had returned to the Taoist temple and sent a message to Huai Qingyun through the Immortal Official Document, asking him to send the Gathering Qi Bead after it had been replaced.
While waiting.
Xuanqing sat cross-legged, pondering the matter of Heaven and Earth Will in his mind.
In his imagination, among the Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Ways… the most appropriate starting point would naturally be the Human Path.
"Heavenly Path… is Shinto, Earthly Path is Reincarnation, and Human Path… is the path of cultivation."
"However… just relying on the ordinary revival of spiritual Qi to open up the Human Path doesn't align with my interests. I need to think more carefully!"
After contemplation for a moment.
A flash of inspiration came to his mind.
"What if I combine the Faith Incense Fire with Spiritual Qi? This way, I would be opening up the Human Path while also reaping the rewards of faith!"
The more he thought, the clearer his ideas became.
Xuanqing closed his eyes and continued to think deeper in this direction.
First!
He needed to set up some guiding formations on the moon to bring Spiritual Qi to Water Blue Star.
Next… these Spiritual Qi couldn't be readily used by people. There must be restrictions set up, and these restrictions had to be related to faith.
"Contemplation method!"
"Create a meditation practice that uses my divine statue as the focus."
Xuanqing couldn't help but blurt it out.
"And the formations guiding the Spiritual Qi will be set up in Taoist temples all over Yan Country. Just set a restriction that once a certain amount of incense is contributed, they will automatically bring in the corresponding Spiritual Qi, allowing believers to cultivate!"
"The more devout the faith, the more Spiritual Qi can be brought in."
"In this way…. the Human Path will be opened up on Water Blue Star!"

Translator: 549690339
"The formation is set in the Taoist temple, using the visualization map as a medium to determine how much incense fire a believer has contributed, then based on the quantity of the incense fire, an appropriate amount of spiritual qi is dispersed!"
Xuanqing's eyes are increasingly bright.
With such a set of procedures, everyone on the Water Blue Star who wishes to practice must ensure the devotion of their faith.
By doing so.
Not only has he developed the Human Path, but he also ensured the devotion of faith. It can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Next.
Xuanqing began to ponder the details of this 'Visualization Practice Method', as well as how the formations should be arranged.
Several hours later.
In the distant sky, a cloud of luck descends, revealing a robed child. This was Huai Qingyun, who had been tasked with replacing the Gathering Qi Beads.
"Sir… all the Gathering Qi Beads are here." Huai Qingyun respectfully bowed and then brought out several Sumeru Bags.
Listening to the voice.
Xuanqing came to his senses and nodded at Huai Qingyun, "Good, thank you for your hard work!"
"It's not hard work, Sir. You carry on with what you were doing."
Perhaps Huai Qingyun had noticed that Sir was deep in thought.
Huai Qingyun did not make a fuss. After bowing again, he bid farewell to Sir.
Watching Huai Qingyun leave.
Xuanqing focused his attention on the Sumeru Bags in front of him, feeling a bit expectant.
In the Game World, he had spent a whole year forming a Divine Flower and gathering it on his crown.
He had then spent four months practicing the "Tiangang Thirty-Six Method" from Dacheng to perfection.
Then he stayed on the moon for two days.
After calculating it all.
On the Real World side… fifty days had passed.
The next moment.
His divine thought covered these Sumeru Bags, drawing out all the power of the incense fire, and then he silently said to himself:
"Recharge!"
[Ding…1.5E ingots!]
Hearing the prompt sound in his mind.
Xuanqing was slightly taken aback.
One hundred and fifty million?
This number was somewhat unexpected.
Just fifty days had passed and he had already harvested 150 million. Didn't that mean that 3 million ingots were credited every day?
"Last time I harvested…. there were only 1.8 million a day, now it has grown to as much as 3 million a day."
Xuanqing was filled with emotion.
What concept is this?
If the Guanyin of the Shimen is used as a measuring unit, doesn't it mean that a top-tier big brother is harvested every day?
"Open Character Panel!"
[Name: Xuanqing
[Physique: Chaos Virtue Holy Body.
[Grade: Left Attendant Immortal Lord of Taiji Palace, Envoy of Five Thunders, and Director of Thunder Department (Fourth Rank)
[Cultivation: Integration of Void Stage (Mid-Peak)
[Cultivation Method: Food-Qi Decree
[Divine Ability: Fate-controlling Dragon Chapter (Infinite), Heavenly Thirty-six Methods (Perfection), Five Element Array (Perfection)….
[Ingots: 1.6E
On the Character Panel.
After recharging 150 million, coupled with the previous more than 10 million, the total is 160 million.
Of course.
This number also has an additional decimal, except that it is not displayed.
"Check accumulated number of incense fire, Secondary Third-Rank Immortal Official." Xuanqing murmured in his heart.
[Ding..Your current total: 3.5E incense fire, 1.5E remains until your next Immortal Officials Promotion!]
One hundred and fifty million?
"If calculated at three million a day, it will only take fifty days…no, if the Taoist temple continues to expand, the time may be shorter, to be promoted to Secondary Third-Rank."
Xuanqing murmured softly.
But the small change in rank from the Fourth-Rank to Secondary Third-Rank could not attract his attention unless he was promoted to the First Grade and had the qualification to open up a Dao Court, perhaps he would have some expectations then.
This moment.
He needs to consider how to open up the Three Ways of Heaven, Earth, and Humans on the Water Blue Star, as well as the practice of Five Qi Chaoyuan after the Flawless Golden Immortal!
"By the way, before opening up the Human Path, I should inform Elder Jingde and Elder Qianqing in advance so that they can prepare themselves, and by the way, inquire about the development of the Taoist temple!"
Thinking like this.
Xuanqing was preparing to take out his Phone to send messages to these two elders, asking them to come to Qingping Mountain.
After doing all this.
He closed his eyes again and pondered about the formation.
About two hours later.
Two helicopters landed in the parking lot of Qingping Temple, and two old Taoists disembarked. They were Elder Qianqing and Elder Jingde.
The two looked at each other and smiled, then stepped forward to the Taoist temple.
Entering the inner courtyard.
"Subordinates Qianqing, Jingde… Greetings, temple master!" The two were handling finger seals, holding them high above their heads, and respectfully bowing.
"Hmm!"
Xuanqing opened his eyes, hummed lightly, then asked, "How has the Taoist sect been developing recently?"
Hearing this.
Elder Jingde stepped forward, bowed his hands, and replied: "Reporting to the temple lord."
"Currently, the Taoist sect is developing rapidly. The number of Taoist temples has increased from the original 2,000 to 5,162, with an average number of incense guests of about 300 per temple."
"The number of registered Taoists has increased from 4,240 to 6,318."
Listening to Elder Jingde's narrative.
Xuanqing was somewhat surprised.
In such a short time, the number of Taoist temples had jumped from the original 2,000 to more than double.
On this side.
Perhaps noticing the astonishment on the temple master's face.
Elder Jingde looked a bit strange as he explained, "My lord, you may not know it, but after the meteorite incident, the government office implemented a 'three no' policy towards us.."

Translator: 549690339
"Oh? What are the three 'do nots'?" Xuanqing raised an eyebrow, curiously inquiring.
"Ahern-"
"Don't interfere, don't ask, don't obstruct!" Elder Jingde coughed lightly, then asked with hesitation:
"Palace lord … Are you… already an immortal?"
Upon hearing this,
Elder Qianqing at the side, too, was all ears.
They still vividly remembered the scare when the meteorite fell, it wasn't until their Palace Lord said he would act that they felt relieved.
Unbelievably, when their Palace Lord had said he would step in, what he meant was the enormous hand that could destroy the world would scoop up the meteorite.
"Immortal?" Xuanqing was taken aback at first, however, he did not deny it and instead simply nodded with a smile.
This answer,
did not exceed Elder Jingde's expectations. After all, only an immortal could catch a meteorite with a massive hand.
"Elders Jingde and Qianqing, you don't have to be envious. After a while, a place among the immortals might be waiting for you too."
Xuanqing replied with a smile, his words hinting at something more.
In order to retain Water Blue Star while devouring heaven and Earth's will, you need to find a replacement for the will of Heaven and Earth first.
His choice is to establish the Three Ways of Heaven, Earth, and Human. Then, in the real world, he needs to create a Heavenly Court.
Having received the power from Dragon Powers, Elder Jingde and Elder Qianqing will naturally be entrusted with important tasks by Xuanqing. Becoming immortal is a minor matter compared to that.
"Alright, I've called you over not just to discuss the development of Taoism, but also to inform you about something!"
Xuanqing's expression became grave and then he continued:
"Do you remember me saying one day, that I would start the Road to Cultivation on Water Blue Star?"
Upon hearing this,
Each of the two Taoists shuddered and glanced at each other before answering affirmatively.
Seeing this,
Xuanqing continued: "I plan to start the Road to Cultivation on Water Blue Star and teach the method of contemplative cultivation."
"In addition, Taiji Hall will establish the Law Enforcement Division. If someone causes trouble during practice, the Law Enforcement Division of Taiji Hall will step in and punish him!"
"The members of the Law Enforcement Division… you two select twenty-two trusted individuals, I will personally imbue them with cultivation. Assign one Law Enforcement Division member to every city."
As Xuanqing explained,
Elder Jingde and Elder Qianqing held their breaths, their eyes revealing deep shock.
They couldn't imagine, if the palace lord's plan were implemented, the dynamics of Yan Country, or even the entire Water Blue Star, would undergo a drastic change.
"Palace Lord… Can we also cultivate this contemplation method?"
Elder Qianqing couldn't help but ask.
Upon hearing this,
Xuanqing half shook his head, then said solemnly: "You should stick to the orthodox method of Taoist Qi cultivation. The contemplation method has many limits, don't practice it!"
Relations are hierarchical after all, he isn't a monk preaching about saving others with kindness.
For a man following the path of Tao, if there are any benefits…. those closest to him come first, those with predestined relationships are second, those pleasing to the eye come third, and everyone else is irrelevant!
"Thank you, Palace Lord!"
Elder Qianqing and Elder Jingde both bowed and thanked him sincerely.
Upon seeing this,
Xuanqing nodded slightly, "Alright, you can go and prepare. If necessary, inform the government office too."
"Regarding when I will open the road to practice, I will notify you!"
"Yes, Palace Lord!" The two Taoists bowed and then left Qingping Mountain full of excitement.
After sending off Elder Jingde and Elder Qianqing, the matters in the Real World had temporarily been settled.
Next,
Xuanqing waved his right hand.
A copy of the jade slip of "Complete Collection of Formations" floated in mid-air.
He couldn't remember when he had acquired this secret book, but it was most probably given by the West Sea Dragon Palace.
"With the Ginseng Fruit Tree, I can continuously supply Spiritual Qi, so I don't need to worry about that, for now."
"Next… I need to refine a formation plate that has the functions of recognizing incense contributions and gathering Spiritual Qi."
Thinking to himself,
Xuanqing started reading the "Complete Collection of Formations", searching for solutions to these two problems.
In a blink, several days had passed.
After days and nights of study,
Finally,
Xuangqing found the solutions for the 'gathering of Spiritual Qi' and 'recognizing incense' in the "Complete Collection of Formations".
For gathering Spiritual Qi… He decided to combine the teleportation array with the gathering spirit formation, to make a Mother Child Array Plate.
The main Mother Plate would naturally be placed on the location of the Ginseng Fruit Tree on the Moon.
As for the Child Array Plate… It would be placed on Water Blue Star, with a plate deployed in each Taoist Temple that serves to draw Spiritual Energy from the Mother Plate.
With this,
Even the heavenly and earthy spiritual energy required for cultivation is solved!
Then!
Just need to refine some, keys to unlock spiritual qi. As long as cultivators carry these keys and go to Taoist temples to burn incense, they can attract corresponding spiritual qi from the sub-array plates according to the incense points.
The whole system… is composed of three parts.
One, the main array plate on the Moon.
Two, the sub-array plate in the Taoist temple.
Three, keys for recording incense contributions and unlocking array plates.
"In this way, there is no need for manual operation. If one wants to get more spiritual qi, they have to contribute incense more devoutly."
"However… Learning to modify formations requires some time, it's better to do it in the game world."
Xuanqing murmured softly.
For these kinds of time-consuming tasks, with the 10:1 time ratio of the game world and the real world, naturally, it is more cost-effective to do it in the game world.
With this thought in mind.
"Enter the game!"
Black Wind Mountain Taoist Temple.
After entering the game, Xuanqing didn't waste any time.
With a wave of his right hand.
A large number of glowing treasures… were taken out of the game backpack, these treasures are used to refine array plates.
"Activate Ten Days of Absolute Knowledge Discarding Wisdom."
[Ding… -864000 Ingots!]
The moment the Ingots are deducted, he enters the mysterious state of Unity of Heaven and Man. In this state, his comprehension is enhanced to the limit.
"First, refine the main array plate!"
Xuanqing's eyes glowed silver, and he started moving his hand up and down towards the materials floating in front of him.
In a while.
Various materials flew up and merged, condensing into a small square box, which already had the rudiment of an array plate.
"Next, is to combine the teleportation formation and the spirit gathering formation!"
II
Meld!
II
Puchi-
Accompanied by a puff of black smoke and the smell of burning, the main array plate declared a failed refinement.
However.
Facing this failed array plate.
Xuanqing's face was calm, and there was no fluctuation in his eyes, his right hand moved again, and once again, he took out a bunch of magic treasures for refining the array plate.
[Successful exchange….-165850!]
However.
He only has one portion of the materials needed to refine an array plate, but he always uploads the newly obtained treasures to the mall.
So… these materials… are from exchanging in the game mall.
"Continue!
II
Xuanqing under the state of Absolute Holiness Abandonment of Wisdom, was like he didn't know exhaustion as he channeled the Power of his Soul to refine and fuse these materials one by one.
Puchi….
Accompanied by black smoke, the refinement of the array plate failed once again.
"Continue refining."
[Successful exchange…-165850!]
Speaking of it.
Failing twice in a row doesn't mean Xuanqing can't do it, the way of formations is inherently difficult, and to engrave the formations on the array plate makes it even tougher.
And what Xuanqing wants to do, is to combine two kinds of formations on the inherently difficult array plate basis.
But.
Even the most difficult things.
With the activation of the Absolute Holiness Abandonment of Wisdom by Xuanqing, and the assistance of materials regardless of cost, the obstruction would eventually be shattered.
After failing nine consecutive times, and on the tenth time of refining array plate…
Finally.
The formation rune on the rudimentary array plate floating in the air slowly blended together, perfectly integrating in the end.
Accompanied by a flash of brilliant light.
The array plate… was successfully refined!
"The main array plate is successfully refined, next is the sub-array plate, and the key to unlocking the array plate!"
Xuanqing stored the main array plate properly, and exchanged another pile of materials to start refining the sub-array plate.
Now with the successful experience of the main array plate, the refining of the sub-array plate, and the array plate key, has become extremely simple.
It was successfully refined in one go..
Report chapter Comments
Chapter 248: Chapter 239: Launching the Human Path Practice Plan!
Translator: 549690339
From beginning the research to successful refinement, the whole process…took only seven days.
At this moment.
Three items with different appearances floated in the air.
The one on the left was a square box about the size of a water tank, covered with mysterious runes and emanating a powerful gravitational force, as if trying to attract all the surrounding air.
The second item was a circular plate the size of a pot lid, also covered with runes. Upon closer inspection, the contents of these runes seemed to have some similarities with the runes on the first box.
The third item on the right looked similar to a children's wristwatch, but it had no display or any buttons or switches, looking mysterious.
These three items.
The huge box, the Main Array Plate with gathering spirit and transmission functions, will be placed on the Moon where the Ginseng Fruit Tree is grown.
As well as the Sub-Array Plate on Water Blue Star, which will receive the spiritual Qi transmitted from the Moon and recognize the incense contributed by believers.
The last wristwatch-like item is the key to activate the Sub-Array Plate. It is made of Gathering Qi Bead material and also serves to receive the spiritual Qi from the Sub-Array Plate and infuse the cultivator with Heaven and Earth spiritual energy.
With the cooperation of the three items.
The Main Array Plate continuously transmits the spiritual Qi fed back by the Ginseng Fruit to the Sub-Array Plate.
Next, the Sub-Array Plate records the incense of the cultivators, and sends the corresponding Heaven and Earth spiritual energy to the cultivator's wristwatch key.
Finally.
Cultivators absorb the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy in the wristwatch for their cultivation.
"In this way, the cultivation problem is perfectly solved, without giving access to my spiritual Qi to just anyone!"
Xuanqing's mouth curled up slightly.
Although he had the power to directly revive the spiritual Qi across the entire Water Blue Star.
Doing so would not only cause turbulence in human society but also bring no benefits to him.
Now things are different.
Those who can enjoy the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth are believers who provide him with incense, which counts as a connection of fate.
Giving this creation to those with fate is the style of action for cultivators!
"Upload these three magic treasures to the Store first!"
Xuanqing murmured softly.
With a thought.
"Upload!"
[Upload progress: i%….6o/o….20%….40%…80%..99%…100%!]
[Beep- Congratulations, upload successful, Mall increment: Spirit Transmission Main Array Plate (1,000,000)]
[Beep- Congratulations, upload successful, Mall increment: Spirit Transmission Sub-Array Plate (1,000)]
[Beep- Congratulations, upload successful, Mall increment: Spirit Transmission Key (10)]
These three items were not rare and were of a level of acquired magic treasures, so they were successfully uploaded in just a moment.
Aside from the Main Array Plate being more expensive, the prices of the Sub-Array Plate and the Array Plate Key were quite cheap.
Xuanqing thought to himself:
"Purchase ten thousand Sub-Array Plates and one million Spirit Transmission Keys!"
[Beep… -20,000,000 Ingots!]
Accompanied by the deduction of 20,000,000 Ingots, the Game Backpack now contained an additional ten thousand Sub-Array Plates and one million Spirit Transmission Keys.
Looking at the Game Backpack, with its towering stacks of Sub-Array Plates and Keys.
After some consideration.
He opened the Game Mall and looked at a thousand brown Sumeru Bags worth 200 Ingots each.
"Purchase one thousand Sumeru Bags!" Xuanqing murmured.
[Beep… -200,000 Ingots!]
Afterward.
He put the Spirit Transmission Sub-Array Plates and Spirit Transmission Keys into these one thousand Sumeru Bags separately.
"These items are enough for ten thousand Taoist temples and one million cultivators to use, which should suffice in the early stages!"
"Next, return to the Real World and install the Main Array Plate next to the Moon's Ginseng Fruit Tree."
Xuanqing thought secretly.
The next moment.
Log out of the game!
Real World.
Inside the Inner courtyard of Qingping Mountain's Taoist temple.
Xuanqing opened his eyes, glanced at the time, and saw that it had only been seventeen hours since he began to tackle the crucial component of opening the human path.
Seven days had passed in the Game World, but not even a day in the Real World.
It is undeniable.
Just the difference in the flow of time between the two worlds can provide him with tremendous help on the road of cultivation.
Pushing open the door.
He looked towards the distant space, and as the golden light on his feet flashed, he disappeared from the spot.
Ground-Gold Light!
Perfect Level Ground-Gold Light, even compared to the Somersault Cloud focused on flying, was no less formidable.
••
An hour later.
Moon.
Still, there were pits all over the ground, and a dark, lightless environment everywhere, filled with cosmic radiation like solar wind.
What was different this time.
A giant tree hundreds of meters tall stood on the pit-riddled ground, swallowing and emitting white mist-like Heaven and Earth spiritual energy.
"Hmm…The Heaven and Earth spiritual energy is denser!"
Looking at the surrounding environment.
Xuanqing nodded in satisfaction.
With the help of the Locking Spirit Formation, the area around the Ginseng Fruit Tree for tens of kilometers was enveloped in a white mist-like Heaven and Earth spiritual energy.
Then.
He swung his right hand
And took out a square, water tank-sized box, which was the Spirit Transmission Main Array Plate.
"Begin the formation!"
Xuanqing installed this Spirit Transmission Main Array Plate next to the Ginseng Fruit Tree and took out several energy-filled Spiritual Crystals to install as driving energy.
Hum Hum-
As the waves fluctuated, the surrounding spiritual Qi began to surge and gather towards the black box-like Main Array Plate.
The runes on the box constantly twisted and changed.
After a short while.
The Array Plate with gathering spirit and transmission functions was successfully activated..

Practice Plan! 2
Translator: 549690339
As long as the sub-array plate is activated, it will continuously transmit the spiritual qi from the moon to it.
"Oh yes, I need to add a protective formation as well." Xuanqing pondered.
Although the vast and quiet universe has no life, it does not mean that there is no danger on the moon.
From the large and small pits on the ground… it can be seen that there are countless meteorites hitting the moon on a regular basis.
With the power of the Ginseng Fruit Tree, it naturally did not fear the meteorites, but the main spiritual transmission array could not withstand them.
The next moment.
Countless spiritual crystals appeared in Xuanqing's hands.
He placed the crystals according to five different positions, corresponding to five different rules of Heaven and Earth.
"Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, the Five Elements of Heaven and Earth… condense!" Xuanqing's hand seals changed and he shouted softly.
In an instant.
Five different colors, red, green, blue… and so on, burst out from the five positions and gathered in the sky.
In the end.
A huge multicolored barrier, with the Ginseng Fruit as the center, enveloped an area of several kilometers around it.
While Xuanqing was on the moon, setting up the array and formation.
Here.
In the Taoist temple on Qingping Mountain, twenty-four Taoists arrived, led by two old Taoists with white beards and ruddy complexions.
This group was…
Elder Jingde and Elder Qianqing, who were chosen by their lord according to his commands, selected twenty-two of the most loyal Taoists from within the sect.
When they arrived at the Taoist temple, they didn't stop… under the astonished gazes of the guests, they went straight into the inner courtyard.
"Please wait, I will call the temple master first!"
Elder Jingde stopped, took out his phone, opened the contact list, and dialed the number at the top marked with 'temple master.'
[Sorry, the number you have dialed is out of service area, please try again later…]
Hearing the prompt tone from the phone,
"The temple master is not in the service area… could it be…" Elder Jingde subconsciously looked up at the sky.
The temple master had said before that he would set up a formation on the moon. Although he did not know the principle behind it, it seemed likely that the temple master had gone to the moon at this moment.
"What's wrong, Elder Jingde?"
Elder Qianqing asked curiously.
It's worth mentioning that.
The reason why he called Elder Jingde 'elder,' rather than 'heavenly master'…
This meant that in his heart, the priority of the lord's Taiji Hall was definitely higher than the Water Blue Star Daoist Sect.
Elder Jingde pointed in the direction of the moon.
"It seems the temple master has gone to the moon!"
Upon hearing this.
Elder Qianqing just nodded faintly, his face showing no surprise.
However.
This remark, when heard by the twenty-two Taoists, caused quite a stir.
They were chosen as confidants because they were all members of the 'Taiji Hall' and extremely loyal.
They were very unfamiliar with their mysterious 'master,' only knowing that he was very powerful, and that even the previous meteorite incident was him emerging to help.
But they never expected that the mysterious master usually wandered in the universe, perhaps even becoming immortal.
On the moon.
After setting up the protective formation and checking that everything was secure,
Golden light glowed all around Xuanqing.
Earth Leaping Golden Light!
At the Perfect Level, this ground-gold light moved rapidly, and in a short time, it penetrated the atmosphere and returned to the sky above the Taoist temple.
"Eh… Elder Jingde and Elder Qianqing have already brought people over?"
As soon as he returned,
Xuanqing noticed the group of Taoists in the courtyard.
The next moment.
With a flash of his figure, he appeared in the courtyard, standing before the group of Taoists.
The Taoists were dozing off.
Suddenly, a man who seemed too great and dazzling to look at directly, like a radiant star, appeared before them, startling them all.
"Temple master!"
Elder Jingde and Elder Qianqing hurriedly raised their hands in a salute above their heads and bowed.
Seeing this scene.
"Greetings, temple master!"
The other Taoists quickly came to their senses and respectfully saluted.
Xuanqing slightly nodded.
He looked at the twenty-two confused Taoists before him and couldn't help but ask: "Elder Jingde, didn't you inform them of this matter?"
"Master… Not yet!"
Elder Jingde chuckled and explained: "I didn't know whether our master would deem them worthy or not. To avoid trouble, I didn't reveal the truth to them."
"If the master has decided on the candidates, I will explain to them gradually!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
The Taoists looked at each other in confusion.
"No need for that. Since the two elders have chosen them, I naturally have no reason to distrust them!"
Xuanqing waved his hand.
As for him, it didn't matter whether he trusted these in the real world or not. As long as there wasn't a human extinction, he could handle things easily.
However.
Elder Jingde and Elder Qianqing were very touched by these words and became even more grateful to Xuanqing.
It was the palace lord who had given them this opportunity, leading them on the path of cultivation, and he also had such trust in them.
"I confer upon you all the positions as Law Enforcement Division under the management of Elder Jingde in the Taiji Hall!"
Xuanqing looked at the Taoists.
He thought for a moment.
He took out twenty-two Ginseng Fruits that looked like babies from the Game Backpack.
Then.
He waved his right hand, and each of the Ginseng Fruits turned into twenty-two rays of light, shooting towards the Taoists.
The light entered their foreheads.
The Taoists only felt something being sealed into their foreheads.
Immediately after.
A batch of information appeared in their minds out of thin air. The content was roughly about how to control the Mana in their bodies and two cultivation techniques.
"Ingesting Qi Decision"
"Treading the Clouds"
The former was a cultivation technique for controlling Mana and refining the power of Ginseng Fruits into their own Mana.
As Law Enforcement Division members of Taiji Hall, they would each be in charge of a city's security. Naturally, they couldn't be like ordinary believers, making contributions with incense and trading for a meager amount of Spiritual Qi.
The latter, "Treading the Clouds," was self-explanatory. Its biggest feature was its simplicity and great speed, making it perfect for newcomers.
As for offensive techniques… it was still a bit too early for these novices.
Anyway, as long as they had Mana in their bodies, even if they simply added Mana to their physical bodies, they could still exhibit the power of shattering mountains, stones and piercing steel plates with their bare hands.
After doing all this.
Xuanqing waved his whisk, wrapping it around the Taoists.
"Two elders, wait here for a while. I will take them to the back mountain to get familiar with the Mana in their bodies!"
As soon as the words fell.
Whoosh-
Xuanqing and the twenty-two Taoists wrapped in the whisk disappeared from the inner courtyard.
When they reappeared.
Xuanqing had already brought the Taoists to the back mountain.
After that.
He manipulated the Qi Flower, transformed his whisk into a Talisman Brush, drew several mysterious runes in the void, and casually set up a Boundary Array.
"You all need to practice your techniques well here!"
After saying this, his figure disappeared.
At this moment.
After hearing the master's voice echoing in their ears.
The Taoists finally realized what had just happened and began to explore their own bodies.
When they successfully drew out the Mana within their bodies according to the information in their minds, they were all extremely excited.
"Mana… our master has actually bestowed us with true techniques!"
"Law Enforcement Division… protecting cities, managing cultivator's security… 'Ingesting Qi Decision,'… our master is going to initiate the revival of spiritual Qi~"
"Incredible, this is the power of Mana, it's so…"
The Taoists were moved to tears, sharing the joy and excitement of feeling the Mana within their bodies.
No matter how excited the Law Enforcement Division candidates at the back mountain were.
Here.
Xuanqing returned to the inner courtyard again.
His gaze shifted to Elder Jingde and Elder Qianqing.
"Elder Jingde and Qianqing, I have already planted the seed of Spiritual Qi on the moon. We can now proceed with the Human Path Cultivation plan."
As he said this.
Xuanqing opened his palm.
A round plate the size of a pot cover and an item resembling a wristwatch floated in the air.
"This is…."
Chapter 250: Chapter 240: The gold in the Sakura treasury should be taken by me, a humble Taoist!
Translator: 549690339
"This object is used to receive the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth, you only need to…."
As Xuanqing explained, he activated the Sub-Array Plate, shaped like the lid of a pot.
Buzz, buzz-
In an instant.
A white fog spread, hovering around the Sub-Array Plate.
This spiritual Qi from Heaven and Earth did not appear from nowhere, rather it was transmitted down as per a preset setting by the moon's Main Array Plate upon sensing the activation of the Sub-Array Plate.
"Is this… the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth?"
Elder Jingde's eyes widened in surprise.
As he touched the white fog, he felt an extraordinary comfort all over, just like a fish long been dried back in water again.
Off to the side.
Elder Qianqing was the same.
Though they had mastered mana for a long time, it was the first time they had contact with the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.
"Exactly. Just activating the Sub-Array Plate can continuously gather the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth."
"One Sub-Array Plate is enough to sustain thousands of people's cultivation practice," Xuanqing said casually.
Following this.
He took the watch on the plate into his hand and continued to explain, "This is the key to turn on the Array Plate."
"To absorb the spiritual Qi from the Sub-Array Plate, one must refine this key. Then, based on the devotion to me, one can absorb equivalent spiritual Qi from the Sub-Array Plate."
Upon hearing this.
Elder Jingde's eyes brightened, eager to try, he said impatiently, "Palace Lord, may I try?"
"Go ahead!"
Xuanqing smiled and nodded, handing the watch to Elder Jingde, then he instructed, "Only a drop of blood is needed to make the key recognize the owner."
The reason for using blood to establish ownership is because the targets here are ordinary people who have never practiced before and naturally don't have mana or the power of the God Soul like cultivators do.
On this side.
Upon hearing the Palace Lord's words.
Elder Jingde promptly extended his right hand, forcing out a drop of blood from his fingertip and dabbing it onto the watch.
In an instant.
A piece of information appeared in his mind out of nowhere.
The information contained a Shenxiao Visualization Technique that describes how to enhance mental power through contemplation.
During this process, absorption of spiritual Qi from Heaven and Earth is a must, otherwise, it could at most make you a little healthier and sharper, but it is impossible to generate mana.
If you want to gain spiritual Qi from Heaven and Earth, you have to burn incense and worship in the Taoist temple. However, he wasn't quite sure how this was done.
"Palace Lord, what is the situation of gaining spiritual Qi by burning incense and worshiping?" Elder Jingde curiously asked.
"Just try it and you will know!" Xuanqing's mouth curved upwards slightly.
Upon hearing this.
Elder Jingde paused slightly, then asked uncertainly, "Where should I burn the incense? Should I go to the main hall?"
"No need, just near this Sub-Array Plate is fine." Xuanqing pointed to the Sub-Array Plate in Jingde's hand as he explained.
"Understood!"
Elder Jingde nodded and put the Sub-Array Plate in his hand on the ground.
Next.
He followed the guidance on the watch, sat cross-legged between….imagining the divine statue of 'Taichi Palace Left Envoy, Thunder God Envoy, and Head of Leiting Zhu Temple' in his mind.
Contemplation… or more accurately, continually hinting to himself, having faith in the God he visualized in his mind.
With Elder Jingde's contemplative prayer.
A wisp of incense belief emerged from the top of his head, which was then absorbed by the nearby Sub-Array Plate.
Once the Sub-Array Plate absorbed the incense, it was immediately activated, transmitting the corresponding spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth into the Array Plate Key, also referred to as the watch on Elder Jingde's wrist.
After that…
The Array Plate Key radiated warmth, and directly transmitted this spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth through the wrist and into Elder Jingde's body.
At this moment.
Elder Jingde felt a coolness in his wrist, followed by a familiar energy surging into his body from the wrist.
He, who was in the state of contemplative prayer, unconsciously used his mental strength according to the contemplation method to refine this spiritual Qi from Heaven and Earth.
In this process, most of the spiritual Qi from Heaven and Earth nourished the God Soul, and only a small part was used to strengthen the body and turn it into mana within the body.
Moments later.
"Phew-" Elder Jingde opened his eyes, awakening from the state of contemplative prayer.
Seeing this.
Elder Qianqing on the side, brimming with curiosity, could not help but take a step forward and ask, "Jingde, how docs it feel?"
Elder Jingde pondered for a moment, thinking awhile, formulating the words in his mind before starting to explain:
"This 'Shenxiao Visualization Technique' is amazing. During the contemplative prayer, I unknowingly completed the cultivation practice."
"I could feel that there wasn't much improvement in my physical body and mana. Most of the spiritual Qi from Heaven and Earth was used to nourish the God Soul."
Upon hearing this.
Xuanqing nodded secretly.
The 'Shenxiao Visualization Technique' he invented is primarily a cultivation technique for the God Soul, while physical body and mana are just incidental.
The reason for this.
Is that he found that the incense belief that a living being can contribute, besides their sincerity, is also related to the intensity of their essence, Qi, and God Soul.
And among the essence, Qi, and God Soul, the 'God Soul' had the most significant impact, directly influencing the birth of the incense belief.
Therefore.
Xuanqing created this 'Shenxiao Visualization', using his divine position as the object of the visualization, to enhance the God Soul power of the believers.
Of course.
Let's not mention these for now.

Chapter 251: Chapter 240: The gold in the Sakura Country's treasury should rightfully be mine! _2
Translator: 549690339
Xuanqing waved his right hand.
Whoosh-
A pile of Sumeru Bags appeared out of thin air like raindrops, placed in front of the two men.
It's worth mentioning.
Each Sumeru Bag contains unique spatial properties and cannot be placed inside another Sumeru Bag.
"Here are 10,000 sub-array plates and one million array plate keys. Each Taoist temple is to be equipped with one sub-array plate and up to 500 array plate keys."
"You can handle the distribution of the array plate keys as you see fit. I trust you will not disappoint me."
Xuanqing hinted at his meaning.
Hearing this,
They understood the implications of their palace master's words with their intelligence.
The two Taoists immediately knelt on one knee, clasped their hands, and said firmly, "We understand and will ensure the array plate keys…reach the hands of the truly devout believers!"
"Hmm…you may take your leave."
Xuanqing nodded slightly and waved his hand at the two.
"Yes, palace lord…we take our leave!" The two Taoists bowed and flew away with the Sumeru Bags, each using their own mana.
After watching the departure of the two old Dao,
Xuanqing summoned Huai Qingyun and explained the matter of the sub-array plates to him once again.
And also,
Xuanqing ordered Huai Qingyun…they could now remove the gathering Qi beads from the Yan Country's Taoist temples. From now on, they would directly use the Gathering Qi Beads to absorb the incense from the sub-array plates.
After all,
The sub-array plate itself has the function of absorbing incense, recording the amount of incense, and providing corresponding celestial Qi.
Once everything in the real world was settled,
Xuanqing sat cross-legged, gazing into the distance, murmuring softly in his heart:
"The Water Blue Star has been set up for the human path, and now I can just wait for events to unfold naturally. It's time…to start cultivating the Five Qi Chaoyuan!"
With a thought,
"Enter the game!"
Game World.
Black Wind Mountain.
Xuanqing opened his eyes.
Everything about opening the human path on Water Blue Star had been resolved, and now he just needed to wait for time to ferment.
Now, he could fully dedicate himself to his cultivation.
With a thought,
A jade slip appeared in mid-air. This was a collection of cultivation materials sent by Great Immortal Zhenyuan, including Taoist Qi cultivation methods, Buddhist fruit cultivation techniques, and even Devil Race's bloodline cultivation methods.
"The cultivation of Five Qi Chaoyuan is about refining the five elements of the five organs to control the rules of the five elements of heaven and earth."
Xuanqing's divine thoughts were browsing through the contents of the jade slip.
It is worth mentioning.
The so-called 'gold, wood, water, fire, earth' are widely known by these names simply because they are easy to say.
The true order of the Five Elements is not like this.
Instead, it is:
Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal!
Of these, 'Water' is the main ruler of the Five Elements. It starts with Water, transforms to Wood, then generates Fire, which burns to produce Earth, and finally consolidates into Metal!
At this moment,
What Xuanqing needs to do is…choose an attribute from the Five Elements of Heaven and Earth as a starting point, and then deduce the other four, eventually achieving the goal of controlling the Five Elements' rules.
"So…which attribute should I choose?"
Xuanqing was carefully considering in his heart.
Generally speaking,
Most cultivators in Taoism choose 'Water', the main rule of the Five Elements, as their starting attribute, and then follow the order to gather the remaining four elements one by one.
"Water belongs to Yin and also represents the essence of life. For ordinary
Taoists, using Water as the starting point is indeed most suitable."
"However…"
Xuanqing stood up, a strange light in his eyes, "For me, there is a more suitable initial attribute!"
"I have the Chaos Morality Holy Body, immortal to calamity and unattached to karma. I can… use the Metal of the Five Elements as my starting point, absorb the worldly gold and silver Wealth Qi to strengthen my Metal Qi!"
The reason why worldly gold and silver are called the king of all gold,
Is not because ordinary gold and silver are so powerful. On the contrary, any refining metal material is of better quality than worldly gold and silver.
Its power lies in…the Wealth Qi it contains!
Wealth Qi plays a very important role in the Human Path; it is the driving force of human survival and the circulation of material resources.
Of course.
For ordinary cultivators, worldly gold and silver are said to be supported by human path wealth qi….having a huge impact.
However, if it is absorbed into the physical body for cultivation, there will be a fatal side effect, that is, they will be backlashed by the human path destiny, and entwined in big consequences.
The vast human path cause and effect contained in it is not something a small Flawless Golden Immortal can bear…. Even if they attain the Five Qi Chaoyuan, they cannot withstand it.
But.
For Xuanqing… This serious side effect is not a side effect at all.
No tribulation arises, no cause and effect contaminates!
With the Chaos Virtue Holy Body, you can do whatever you want.
With that, Xuanqing decided in his heart to use the 'gold' of the Five Elements as a starting point.
Xuanqing waved his right hand.
A gold brick was taken out of the Game Backpack.
The obverse of the gold brick is engraved with a 5OOg protrusion, and the reverse is the logo of 'XX Bank'. This is a gold bar stored in a real-world bank.
"Cultivating Five Qi Chaoyuan is about introducing Qi into the body, but what is drawn in is not ordinary heaven and earth spiritual energy, but the gold Qi of the Five Elements!"
Xuanqing murmured softly.
His right hand stroked the gold brick, sensing the Five Elements gold within, and then… operated the Cultivation Techniques, and the essence, Qi, and spirit of the Three Flowers moved together.
"Refine!
II
Xuanqing shouted lowly.
The human body contains a treasure trove.
Their eyes correspond to Yin and Yang, the five internal organs correspond to the Five Elements of heaven and earth, and within the Five Elements, gold… corresponds to the lungs.
When the Five Elements gold Qi was absorbed into the lungs, it was instantly absorbed and turned into nutrients nourishing and improving the lungs.
"Hmm~"
Xuanqing opened his eyes and looked inside at the condition of his lungs.
"The amount of gold Qi in this one Jin of gold is barely a splash. To complete the first step of introducing gold Qi into the body, I'm afraid it needs to be calculated in 'tons'."
"If it comes to condensing gold towards the Yuan later, its consumption will probably be astronomical!"
Xuanqing thought secretly in his heart.
For ordinary cultivators, wanting to collect such a huge amount of gold would strain their very sinews even if they went to the so-called Human Clan Fate Center, the most prosperous Tang Dynasty Empire.
This is the temporal limitation. Although this world has countless gods and cultivators, the productivity remains extremely low.
The existence of the 'cause and effect' rule makes these extraordinary powers incapable of interfering too much with the mundane world.
But.
What is extremely difficult for ordinary cultivators and even gods… is very simple for Xuanqing.
Because… He simply does not need to collect gold in this world at all.
In the real world, relying on the powerful industrial technology, the gold reserves of various countries on Water Blue Star… have reached an extremely exaggerated number.
The total storage of gold mined on Water Blue Star has reached a staggering 35,000 tons. Look carefully…it's not tons…but ten thousand..tons!!
Among them, the Beautiful Country has the most reserves, reaching more than 8,000 tons. The second is Will Country with more than 3,000 tons, and then the Spaghetti Country.
However.
Xuanqing's goal is on Sakura Country, whose gold reserves rank eighth globally, with more than 700 tons.
"Let's go to Sakura Country!"
Xuanqing murmured softly, having already made up his mind in his heart.
The next moment.
"Exit the game!"
Back in the real world again.
Xuanqing stood up, his hand holding a feather duster, and with a golden light, he shot into the sky.
Leaping Ground-Gold Light!
With Perfect Level Ground-Gold Light, even though traveling to the moon 400,000 kilometers away would only take an hour, let alone Sakura Country in the Asian continent.
Moments later.
Above a huge sea island, there was a young Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe and holding a feather duster. It was Xuanqing who had rushed here from Qingping Temple.
He looked down.
Although it was a sea island, there were tall buildings and traffic everywhere. The pedestrians on the road were also rushing about, showing a scene of prosperity during the golden age.
This is the capital of Sakura Country.
The reason for coming here is that most of the gold in Sakura Country is stored in the vault of Sakura General Bank in this city.
"Sakura Country… Lend me your gold to help me cultivate Gold towards the Yuan!"
Xuanqing's mouth curled up, revealing a cold smile.
At the next moment.
His figure disappeared..
Chapter 252: Chapter 241: Carrot and Stick, About to Set Sail!
Translator: 549690339
In a flash, his body disappeared.
When he appeared again,
Xuanqing had arrived in a sealed secret room, with surveillance cameras faintly glowing in the corners of the walls.
These were not important, though.
What was important –
Countless shiny gold bars, cut into neat shapes like weight blocks, were piled on the floor.
Gold!
What came into view was… a dazzling golden scene, shining under the light.
Xuanqing's eyes narrowed slightly, surprised in his heart.
Of course,
He wasn't amazed by the amount of money the gold was worth, but by the immense wealth and humanity's energy he felt within the gold bars.
Just think about it.
Almost all humans on Water Blue Star use paper money now, and there are only two primary things underlying it-
Either oil, which determines the issuance of banknotes based on its quantity or gold, which determines the issuance of banknotes based on its quantity.
"The treasures in the real world are indeed endless!"
Xuanqing couldn't help but exclaim.
The next moment –
He waved his duster, and thousands of dust tails shot out, wrapping all the gold bricks in the vault.
"Take them!"
On the other hand,
the monitoring room in Sakura Bank.
Two uniformed security guards were smoking and playing with their phones.
Their job was simple: guard the monitoring room and glance at the monitor from time to time to make sure it didn't break.
"Damn it!" a security guard cursed as he lost a game on the screen.
"So boring-"
The other security guard didn't play on his phone, he just lowered his head to smoke, looking listless.
The job paid well, but it was too boring. Once they entered the monitoring room, they couldn't leave halfway and had to wait for a shift change.
"Just wait a bit longer, Matsushita's team will come to replace us soon!"
"One more round, I won't believe it, there's no way I can't beat this small game!"
The phone-playing guard cursed and was about to start another round when…
Suddenly,
The monitor on the wall flickered, and then the gold bricks in the surveillance image disappeared without a trace.
This scene-
made the smoking guard freeze, and the cigarette in his hand unconsciously dropped to the ground.
He rubbed his eyes before looking at the monitor again, only to find that it was still empty. The once-overflowing gold was gone.
"Wh… what?"
The man muttered indistinctly.
It took him a while to regain his composure, and then he frantically grabbed his companion's shoulder and shook him, "The vault… the vault… gold…"
"Gold your mom's head, you bastard! You made me lose again…"
The game-playing security guard snapped back, then subconsciously glanced at the monitor only to freeze, dumbfounded.
The gold vault… was gone!
The two looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes. In the small monitoring room, their hearts pounded wildly.
"Quick… tell the president…"
Moments later,
An old man, with white hair and dressed in a loose kimono, leaned on a crutch and followed a group of security guards, passing through layers of checkpoints to open the vault door.
Creak…
As the last blast-resistant metal door opened,
What they saw was… an incredibly clean vault that didn't even have a speck of gold dust left.
Seeing this,
"Huh-"
The old man's eyes widened, blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, and he stiffly fell backward.
He knew he was done for, and not just him, but his entire family, and even the whole country… was done for.
"Mr. President… What's wrong with you?"
"Mr. President, wake up… Mr. President…"
Everyone panicked and hastily tried to help the old man. They pinched his acupoints and performed CPR… after using a whole series of methods- "Puh~"
Finally,
The old man vomited blood, waking up with a faint life. But his hair turned more withered, and his whole person appeared feeble.
Seeing this,
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The president's status in the Sakura Country was extraordinary, and they couldn't afford to have anything happen to him, or they would all be doomed.
At this moment,
Ding-ding-
The ringtone of a phone rang out.
The old man tremblingly reached his waist and took out a specially-made phone, pressing the answer button.
"Hello…"
"Mr. Jin, it's bad! The No.2 vault, N0.3 vault… N0.10 vault, all the gold…."
Plunk-
The phone fell to the ground.
The old man's face turned pale. He was drenched in sweat, panting heavily.
"He…he…"
His once pale face turned black at an alarming rate, and finally, blood flowed from his eyes.
He died right there!
Seeing this,
Everyone around the old man woke up like a dream, and they all screamed out in pain:
"President Jin~"
"President Jin is gone!"
Let's not say how the people of the Sakura Country lived their days after losing 700 tons of gold.
On this side,
In the Qingping Mountain Taoist Temple,
Xuanqing was sitting cross-legged, his face expressionless.
This trip took half an hour and harvested more than 700 tons of gold-filled wealth.
"I don't know if more than 700 tons is enough, but for now… just use it!"
"First, enter the game and practice!" murmured Xuanqing softly.
Anyway,
If it's not enough, he could always go to other countries like the top-ranked Beautiful Country, which would be a great target.
It's just located across the ocean, a bit further away, it'd need an extra ten-minute journey..

He thought to himself.
"Enter the game!"
Black Wind Mountain.
A young Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe and holding a duster in his hand opened his eyes. This was Xuanqing who had just logged into the Game.
With a wave of his right hand,
a neatly stacked pile of gold bricks appeared on the ground.
Huge wealth and Human Path destiny emanated from these gold bricks. A typical cultivator would be entangled in this cause and effect, doomed to encounter misfortune and a tragic death.
However,
his constitution allowed him to remain unaffected by these karmic riches.
Xuanqing sat down directly on the pile of gold.
With his thoughts,
"Draw the Gold Qi into the body-"
In an instant,
Xuanqing's physical body seemed to turn into a water pump, producing a terrifying suction force. This suction drew the gold Qi from the gold bricks into his body incessantly, eventually refining it into his lungs.
As the gold Qi diminished,
the color of these gold bricks began to fade at a visible speed, eventually turning into a grayish-white color.
"Huh~"
Xuanqing opened his eyes.
He picked up a gold brick beneath him with his right hand and gently squeezed it. These grayish-white gold bricks seemed like ordinary rocks, easily crushed into fragments.
"It took a full ten tons of gold to complete the absorption of Gold Qi into my body. If I didn't have the Real World… it would indeed be a bit troublesome!"
Xuanqing thought to himself.
Although the condensation of Gold Qi didn't necessarily require gold and other basic materials like copper or iron would suffice, none could compare to the speed of cultivation or effectiveness of using gold.
"The lungs have completed their transformation and can now bear the Gold towards the Yuan."
"So… next, I need to continue absorbing Gold Qi until the Golden Qi Chao Yuan is condensed!"
Afterward,
Xuanqing swept his duster, turning the gold bricks that had transformed into stone into dust. Then, he sprinkled the waste on the open space of Black Wind Mountain.
Immediately after,
countless gold bricks emerged from the Game Backpack and were laid on the ground, forming a small mountain.
"Continue refining!"
Xuanqing floated onto the small mountain made of gold bricks, sat cross-legged, and began the process of condensing the Golden Qi Chao Yuan.
Just like that,
Xuanqing entered closed-door cultivation. As the Gold Qi within the gold bricks was consumed, he took out more.
The cycle repeated!
Real World.
In the Conference Hall of the Heavenly Master Mansion of Yan Country,
Elder Jingde sat in a high position, with Elder Qianqing and Yang Ying sitting on either side of him.
Apart from them,
Twenty-two newly promoted Law Enforcement Division members… sat on either side of the hall, looking up at the three on the high platform.
"Now, more than 5,000 Taoist temples in the twenty-two provinces of Yan Country are fully prepared."
"Your task is to maintain order in your respective territories. If any believers use supernatural powers to cause chaos, suppress them immediately!"
Elder Jingde's expression was cold, and his voice was very serious.
Having followed Xuanqing for such a long time, he naturally understood what the palace lord needed and cared about the most.
Therefore, he would not allow any negligence in this matter, for he would not know how to face the palace lord's kindness and trust.
"We will follow Elder Jingde's orders!"
Below the platform,
the twenty-two Law Enforcement Division members responded in unison.
Seeing this,
Elder Jingde slightly nodded his head, and then, with a wave of his hand, condensed a large hand with Mana and grabbed the box beside him.
"Here are a thousand Sumeru bags, containing a total of one million array plate keys. You should distribute them according to…"
He explained the array plate keys and the cultivation matters in detail to the members of the Law Enforcement Division.
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked and couldn't believe that their palace lord was being so generous.
"I have told the palace lord that I guarantee these array plate keys will be distributed to those who have devout faith…"
At this point,
Elder Jingde's eyes became sharp, and he said sternly: "I do not wish to see you make suicidal mistakes. Otherwise, without the palace lord's intervention, I will destroy you."
Everyone quickly lowered their heads and acknowledged his words.
Seeing this,
Elder Jingde nodded with satisfaction, his tone somewhat more relaxed, "Of course, I am not a pedantic person, and our Taoist sect also distinguishes between close and distant relationships."
"So… I'll grant each of you the privilege of freely distributing ten quotas to your close acquaintances!"
A big stick and a carrot ~
Although this technique is old-fashioned, it is very effective.
Not intending to cause chaos, everyone naturally wouldn't dare after hearing these words.
When the Taoist sect does things… they don't bother with evidence.
Even ordinary mortals can deduce many things through the Six Yao, let alone cultivators who have mana.
After the end of the meeting,
the twenty-two members of the Law Enforcement Division went their separate ways, each heading toward their respective province's Dao Association and talcing charge of their territory.
Elder Jingde, Yang Ying, and Elder Qianqing, the three Taiji Hall elders, also left the conference room with smiles and laughter.
"Yang Ying, we will appreciate your hard work with the construction of the cultivation towers," said Elder Jingde.
Yang Ying nodded confidently, replying, "In no more than two months, all Taoist temples will have cultivation towers built for practitioners who use the contemplation method."
Hearing this,
Elder Jingde stroked his beard and smiled.
It should be noted that the so-called cultivation towers are mainly for those practitioners who use the contemplation method after starting the Human Path Cultivation.
After all,
practicing contemplation through prayer requires a quiet environment. The cultivation towers were their consensus after discussing among the three of them…
Each Taoist temple would have hundreds of cultivators, and if they don't arrange things well, there would surely be problems, which the palace lord wouldn't like to see.
So… they unanimously decided to build a cultivation tower specifically for cultivation in the inner courtyard of each Taoist temple!
By the side,
Elder Qianqing sighed with emotion, "We are getting busier and busier now."
Even when he was a Heavenly Master, he wasn't as busy as he is now. He still had time for fasting, chanting, meditating, and sitting in reflection every day.
"Haha, it's good to be busy; being busy means we can help lighten the burden for the palace lord. If we truly become idle, we will probably feel nervous."
Yang Ying raised her eyebrows and smiled.
At these words,
Elder Jingde and Elder Qianqing looked at each other and nodded with laughter.
They had achieved what they had today thanks to the palace lord's kindness. The reason the palace lord had bestowed his favors upon them was that they could share the burdens of these trivial matters with him.
If Yang Ying's words were true and they were idling every day without doing anything, wouldn't it mean they were worthless to the palace lord?
"Elder Yang Ying's words are reasonable, but… in my opinion, the entire Yan Country will be in the whirlpool of a world storm," said Elder Jingde with deep emotions, his gaze distant.
It seemed like he had already seen that in the years to come, the entire Yan Country and even the entire human world would undergo huge changes due to the cultivation path… and the opening of the Human Path.
And in this change, the Taoist sect would be the first to bear the brunt, and as the current controllers of the sect, they would naturally be at the very center of the whirlpool.
On the side,
Elder Qianqing also felt the same way, his expression somewhat somber.
Seeing the atmosphere getting a bit gloomy,
"Hehche-" Yang Ying laughed like silver bells and joked, "Elder Jingde, you just gave ten quotas to each member of the Law Enforcement Division in the main hall…"
"I wonder… if I have a quota?" Yang Ying raised her eyebrows and asked jokingly.
Hearing this,
Elder Jingde laughed and quickly said:
"Of course, we have been with the palace lord from the very beginning. As long as we carry out his commands, not to mention ten, even if there were a hundred, the palace lord wouldn't mind."
Yang Ying stuck out her tongue and waved her hands, "Elder, you're joking! All I need is three quotas for my parents and a journalist friend!"
"Hahaha-"
Elder Jingde and Elder Qianqing looked at each other and laughed heartily..

Actually.
Not only did the two old Daoists not care, even Xuanqing, the Taiji Palace Master, would just shake his head and laugh it off, not taking it seriously.
Daoism does not advocate equality for all beings.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying in Daoism… when one achieves Dao, chickens and dogs ascend to the heavens, and that's how it is.
Nowadays.
Whether it's Elder Jingde, who is the Great Elder, Elder Qianqing, who is in charge of the Daoist Academy, or Yang Ying, who is in charge of worldly businesses and bases, they are all entangled in various trivial matters.
After some small talk… the three of them parted ways.
Just like that.
The massive machinery of the Daoist sect began to operate.
Upon returning to their respective jurisdictions, the twenty-two members of the Law Enforcement Division immediately called all the audience members to a meeting at the Dao Association.
The Daoist sect's big move naturally caught the attention of Yan Country's relevant departments.
However.
Under the previously established 'three no' policy, there was no obstacle, nor anyone asking, as if they knew nothing.
Just as the Daoist sect in the real world was about to achieve great things.
Game World!
Inside the Black Wind Mountain Taoist Temple.
Xuanqing's cultivation was also gradually coming to an end.
It's not that he was going to condense Golden Qi Chaoyuan, but that all seven hundred tons of gold had been used up, leaving no more cultivation resources.
"Huh-" Xuanqing opened his eyes, waking up from his cultivation.
Feeling his internal organs!
He found that his lungs were already filled with a large amount of gold qi, but there was still a distance to go before he could condense the Chaoyuan power.
"Another thousand tons of gold, and I will surely condense the power of Chaoyuan in one go."
Xuanqing silently calculated.
This number was very large, for ordinary cultivators, they would rather spend more time and choose something simpler than just using ordinary metals for cultivation.
Suddenly.
He seemed to think of something, and looked towards the south.
"Thinking of Sun Wukong being imprisoned on Five Finger Mountain, being fed molten copper and iron by Buddha every day, I'm afraid… he is in the Five Qi Chaoyuan cultivation stage, preparing for his Fighting Victory Buddha Position in the future!"
Xuanqing muttered softly, with an indescribable color in his eyes.
Actually.
Among the entire Journey to the West team, the only real Buddhists were Tang Sanzang and Sun Wukong.
Zhu Bajie, the second brother, was undoubtedly the work of the Ancestor Master.
Monk Sha, on the other hand, represented Jade Emperor's side, and as for Bai
Longma at the end…he was merely cannon fodder.
This point.
It can be seen from the conferment after the completion of the Fetching the Scriptures mission.
Tang Sanzang was conferred as the Merit Buddha, occupying the majority of Merits during the normal Journey to the West quest.
Following him was Sun Wukong, who used the Heavenly Merit to cleanse his physical body, and after laying the foundation during his imprisonment at Five Finger Mountain, he achieved the Fighting Victory Buddha Position.
Both Buddhists ended up in a Buddha position.
As for the remaining Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha… one Envoy of the Clean Altar, as a disciple of the Daoist Ancestor, Zhu Bajie received a Clean Altar Envoy position.
What does an envoy mean?
In the Buddhist court, the meaning of an envoy is equivalent to that of a 'supply,' indicating that Zhu Bajie enjoys the salary of Buddhism but is not under its control.
Simply put…it's just a seconded salary.
Compared to Zhu Bajie's seconded envoy, Monk Sha's Golden Body Luohan is a thorough integration into Buddhism and is even someone with real power.
For example, Fuhu Luohan, who was almost beaten to death, could summon Mo Ke Jiedi at will.
As someone from the Jade Emperor, he eventually entered the Buddhist court completely, and the meaning is self-evident.
Of course.
No matter how the various forces in Journey to the West calculate, he has already joined the Ancestor Master's side and has an Undying Body, so there probably won't be anyone more stable than him in this cultivation path.
Shaking his head.
Xuanqing shook the cluttered thoughts out of his mind.
"Thinking so much is pointless; what I need to do now is condense the Golden Qi Chaoyuan!"
With this in mind.
He planned to exit the game, return to the real world, get a thousand tons of gold for cultivation resources, and as for the target… he already had an answer in his heart.
The next moment.
"Exit game!"
Real world.
Qingping Temple.
Xuanqing opened his eyes.
He stood up and looked into the distance, his gaze seemingly crossing the vast ocean to the other side of the ocean.
Beautiful Country…the country with the largest gold reserves in the world, and also the one that directly pegs its currency to gold and oil.
Earth Leaping Golden Light!
A distance of 140,000 kilometers, for the Perfect Level Ground-Gold Light divine power, is only a little over ten minutes.
When Xuanqing appeared again.
He had already arrived in a land filled with the scent of 'freedom,' all kinds of hot weapons, firearms, addictive candies… and homeless people all over the ground.
Withdrawing his gaze from the slums.
He looked at his target, Button First Bank's vault.
There's only ten kilometres between here and the Civilian Cave, but the difference between the two is like night and day.
Well-dressed, sleek and shiny, with tender cigar-scented cigars, the elites of various industries all gathered here.
It's hard to believe.
Such two completely different situations, even ones that can be said to be worlds apart, would appear in the same city, and that too in the so-called most free Button City.
Seeing this.
Xuanqing shook his head.
This kind of thing… is actually the same everywhere, even in the Game World, where demons with connections are all safe, while those without background are killed at the end of a stick..

Whoosh-
His figure flashed.
When he reappeared… he was already in a massive underground warehouse. The surrounding walls were made of steel and could ensure the safety of the gold even if they were under the simultaneous attack of tens of thousands of missiles.
"Wow- The layout is much like the one in Sakura, they should have been built by the same company."
Xuanqing was looking around the vault with interest.
Then.
The duster in his hands twitched, and like previously, the tail of the duster transformed into countless strands wrapping around all the gold in the vault.
The next moment.
"Retrieve!
Every grain of gold disappeared.
Perhaps it was because the technological content of this vault exceeded that of the one in Kid Sun, the moment the gold disappeared,
The sensor in the corner of the wall, seemed to have detected the disappearance of the gold.
In an instant…. ear-piercing sirens began to ring throughout the entire vault base.
However.
Even if the alarm was sounding at full volume, it was of no use at all. How could low-grade detection methods such as optical imaging and thermal imaging possibly monitor Xuanqing?
Let alone his current cultivation level of the Flawless Golden Immortal.
Even if one only had a cultivation level of Turning Qi into God, with a bit of invisibility and stealth techniques, it would be untraceable to this level of technology.
Instantly.
The base was thrown into total chaos. Anyone who saw the situation in the vault was shocked and rendered speechless.
Of course… these issues were retained no connections to Xuanqing.
I must say.
Banks in Beautiful Country are indeed more generous.
Xuanqing only had to rob two banks to gather enough gold to create the Chaoyuan Power of Gold Qi.
After returning to Qingping Mountain.
He sat down cross-legged.
"Enter the game!"
Xuanqing silently commanded within his heart.
As Xuanqing entered the game to cultivate,
The development of Daoism in the real world did not stop.
Changwu County.
The doorstep of the First Daoist temple.
An old Taoist priest with white temples, wearing a Daoist robe… rushing hurriedly, holding a duster in his left hand, and wearing a wristwatch with no display on his right hand.
Creak-
Pushing open the front door.
"Master, you've returned from the meeting, did you bring us something tasty?"
A boy and a girl, both around the age of ten, eagerly asked as their master returned.
Seeing this,
The old Taoist priest said nothing and pulled out a hundred notes from his robe, stuffed it into the boy who was slightly older, and then commanded:
Ling'er, take your junior sister to buy something to eat. I have important matters to deal with, you should only disturb me if it's of the utmost urgency!"
Having said that,
Under the astonished gazes of the two little Taoists,
The old Taoist priest quickly walked into the inner chambers of the bedroom of the Taoist temple, thereafter closing and locking the door.
After returning to his room.
The old Taoist priest sat down cross-legged.
His gaze fell onto his right wrist. To be exact, it was directed at the watch without a display.
His breathing was somewhat rushed, his expression seemed complex, at times it was excited, but other times it was melancholic.
What excited him… was that at his venerable age, he could still possess such great opportunities and was granted the cultivation methods sent from above.
However, his concern was…. he was already at such an old age now. His body was not the same as it was in his youth, whether he could learn this method of immortal cultivation or not was unknown.
If he was given such an opportunity but couldn't digest it…
Cold and Eternal, Silent World, heart should be peaceful, hope….
"Huff-"
The old Taoist priest exhaled deeply.
After reciting the Ice Heart Formula, he felt as though he was placed in the North or South pole, his originally agitated emotions completely dispersed.
The next moment.
"Shenxiao Visualization…"
The old Taoist revisited the information in his watch inside his mind, then closed his eyes. In his mind, he began to visualize and pray according to the content of the techniques!
Moments later.
A piece of spiritual energy of the Faith Incense Fire that was invisible to the naked eye, spouted out from the head of the old Taoist, finally drifting towards the sub-array plate above the Taoist temple.
What is worth mentioning is,
All sub-array plates, when installed above the Taoist temple, already had both the disguise formation and defense formation of jade talisman mounted.
At this moment.
In the high sky.
After the sub-array plate absorbed the Faith Incense Fire contributed by the old Taoist, it immediately transmitted the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth into their corresponding 'Keys'.
II
Hmm?"
In an instant.
The elder Daoist's body trembled.
He felt an indescribable energy, surging from his wrist and finally entering his mind.
It was this slight distraction… that almost broke the prayer contemplation.
He dared not be careless.
The elder Daoist hurriedly reined in his spirit, focusing all his consciousness on the practice of contemplation and prayer.
Just like this.
The faith incense fire continued to be born… The sub-array plate continued to supply the corresponding Heaven and Earth spiritual energy, nourishing the old Daoist engaged in contemplatory practice.
lasted for most of an hour, until no more faith incense fire
This process
could be squeezed out of the old Taoist…
The high-altitude sub-array plate also stopped supplying spiritual energy.
"It's over!"
The elder Daoist opened his eyes.
After feeling his own state, his heart was filled with shock.
Previously, due to the falling meteorites, he had once transported dozens of people onto a bus at once, accidentally injuring his leg.
Now, after practicing Shenxiao Visualization, the original injury disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.
However.
The change in his physical body was secondary.
The changes in spiritual strength were what truly produced elation.
His originally turbid eyes became much clearer, his thoughts became more active, and some forgotten scriptures once again clearly entered his mind.
The old daoist had a feeling… his brain seemed to have returned to its youthful state.
"What's that smell…?"
A sour and stinky smell entered his nose, and his already enhanced sense of smell almost made him vomit.
It turned out., in this practice, the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy not only healed his internal injuries but also cleaned his old and neglected body.
At Changwu County's First Taoist Temple, the old daoist's experience was not an exception.
Throughout Yan Country's Taoist doors… more than five thousand Taoist temples.
All the audiences, after the meeting ended, returned to the Taoist temples with the Array Plate Key…. They all attempted to practice Shenxiao Visualization.
If normal believers were to practice this method, the results may not be as good.
But the first batch of practitioners were all the heads of the Taoist doors, elderly Daoists who have practiced for a lifetime.
The result… goes without saying.
Under the impact of the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy, cleansing and renewing were small matters. Those with exceptional talents were even able to develop spiritual strength on their first try, capable of interfering with reality through spiritual strength, controlling some lighter physical matter.
A Taoist, two Taoists' practice, is not too impactful for Water Blue Star.
However, the practice of hundreds… thousands… or even tens of thousands of elderly Daoists, combined, creates a qualitative change for all of humanity.
Unseen.
A force named 'human path cultivation' began to condense in Yan Country. Each time the elderly Daoists practiced, this force would become denser.
This power… is not compatible with the 'technical side' rules of the real world.
At least for the 'Heaven and Earth Will' of Water Blue Star, the birth of this power posed a formidable and fatal threat.
Buzz-
In the high altitude of Water Blue Star.
The atmosphere was constantly rubbing, with thunder and lightning appearing everywhere, scenes resembling the apocalypse.
All of these apocalyptic scenes condensed into a light group, emitting a sense of despair and corruption.
Heaven and Earth Will.
It was the Heaven and Earth Will!
Under the stimulation of the opening of the Human Path cultivation, perhaps due to despair, the Heaven and Earth Will actually birthed a trace of intelligence.
At this moment.
The scant few intelligences within the Heaven and Earth Will could clearly discern that their time was limited. It was likely that before long, they would be destroyed and devoured by that Will on Qingping Mountain.
Therefore.
It cast its gaze towards Qingping Mountain.
Qingping Mountain, Qingping Temple.
The incense was very prosperous.
Some worshipped in the Three Purities Palace, while others sat in meditation under the old locust tree in the courtyard, because it was rumored that Xuanqing, the founder of the Taoist door, achieved Dao here.
That's right.
Now in Yan Country, ever since the implementation of the 'Three Nos' policy, the videos of Xuanqing's initial teachings began to widely circulate online.
Gradually… as the first to reveal 'Daoist techniques', Xuanqing was affectionately called Xuanqing Ancestor by netizens.
Regarding this., the Daoist door did not clarify, which further solidified the netizens' imaginations.
Hence.
Qingping Mountain was once again in the spotlight…. However, the hottest spot on Qingping Mountain was not the Three Purities Palace worshiping the main god.
It was the locust tree… the original body of Huai Qingyun… where Xuanqing first preached.
However.
At this moment, the inner courtyard of Qingping Mountain had already been targeted by the Heaven and Earth Will that had just birthed intelligence, locking onto Xuanqing who was sitting in the inner courtyard.
The massive and heavy dark clouds gathered in the sky above Qingping Temple, as if the apocalypse was upon them. This scene caught the attention of all the believers who came to burn incense.
"Eh… Why has the sky turned dark?"
Gosh… This, is this the end of the world?"
Damn, could it be that Xuanqing Daozu is practicing some powerful divine power?"

Translator: 549690339
The commotion under the locust tree in the courtyard drew out the incense guests who were offering incense in the Three Purities Palace.
They looked up at the sky, where the sun was blocked by the thick despairing dark clouds, feeling their hearts tremble with fear.
At this very moment.
zzz-
Boom!
A thunderbolt as thick as a water bucket struck down at the Taoist temple's inner courtyard.
The tremendous noise made everyone's eardrums tremble, leaving them feeling dizzy. Some of the weaker ones even fell to the ground on the spot.
"Fellow laymen… hurry and follow me into the Three Purities Palace!"
During this gap.
Two young Taoist priests walked among the crowd, calling out to the people.
Their Daoist names were Xuanming and Xuanjing, who happened to graduate with Xuanqing back then.
Since they were among the earliest ones to pledge allegiance to Xuanqing, their positions naturally rose, moving to famous mountains and temples.
The crowd, as if waking from a dream, followed the two young Taoist priests into the Three Purities Palace.
Under the effects of the Serenity Jade Talisman and the Solidifying Sound Jade Talisman, the incense guests, who were initially scared to the point of their souls nearly scattering, finally calmed down.
• •
Xuanming and Xuanjing, however, now found themselves outside.
They stared at the dark clouds in the sky, which gathered again to unleash thunderbolts striking down towards the inner courtyard, the frenzy of longing gleaming in their eyes.
"Would never have thought that the palace lord who graduated with us back then is now undergoing a calamity. Could it be that he's about to become immortal?"
"Yeah, with a commotion like this, even if it isn't the calamity of becoming immortal, I'm afraid he's practicing some extraordinary divine power."
Longing filled the words of the two Taoist priests.
Especially now that they had access to the Shenxiao Visualization Technique, their desires for cultivation became even stronger.
• •
• •
Not to mention the counterattack of Heaven and Earth Will and the shock it caused to the outside world.
In the inner courtyard of the Taoist temple.
Xuanqing was still sitting cross-legged with his eyes tightly closed.
Under the immense power of the thunderbolts, a large hole the size of a water bucket had appeared in the roof.
Boom-
Boom boom-
Thunderbolts struck down one after another, following the large hole in the roof and directly hitting Xuanqing's physical body.
However.
These thick thunderbolts didn't hurt Xuanqing at all, not even damaging the robes on his body.
Flawless Golden Immortal… with essence, Qi, and spirit fused as one, there were no gaps. Let alone thunderbolts, even the solar wind released by the sun's nuclear explosion is unable to harm it.
In fact.
This scene had already played out once before when the unenlightened Heaven and Earth Will had attempted to strike him.
It's only a pity… that while the Heaven and Earth Will now possesses intelligence, it is not much and naively employs thunderbolts, trying to kill Xuanqing, the one at the root of all this trouble.
It is worth mentioning that.
Amid such commotion.
Xuanqing, who was in the Game World, was naturally aware of what was happening, but faced with an attack that couldn't even be counted as tickling; he didn't even care to pay it any attention.
Game World.
Black Wind Mountain.
A pile of gold bricks stacked on a golden mountain.
Xuanqing looked solemn.
He was fully focused on gathering the power of 'Golden Qi Chaoyuan'.
[Warm Reminder: Your physical body in the Real World is under attack by a thunderbolt. Do you want to quit the game?]
A prompt sounded in his mind.
Struck by a thunderbolt?
Xuanqing was slightly taken aback, almost failing to gather Chaoyuan Power. He quickly gathered his thoughts and focused his attention on continuing to practice.
Calm down, and then it is barely divided.
In his heart, he murmured:
"Check the extent of damage to my physical body in the Real World!"
[Checking… The damage is… 0]
Speechless.
Xuanqing was utterly speechless.
His physical body was sitting cross-legged in the inner courtyard, and even under these circumstances, it was struck by lightning. He could guess that it must have been the Heaven and Earth Will causing more mischief.
You know… You can't even break through my defenses; what's the point of messing around with me?
Of course.
Xuanqing also knew.
The Heaven and Earth Will has no intelligence, so it's nothing more than a set of rules for operating heaven and earth, just like the sun rising from the east and setting in the west, and rivers flowing to the lowest points.
As for the reason why he was struck by lightning, there's no need to think about it. It must have been because in the Real World, the opening of the path of cultivation was in conflict with the rules of the Real World, causing the Heaven and Earth Will to automatically backlash.
"Continue practicing!"
He withdrew his separated thoughts.
Xuanqing continued his cultivation practice.
Anyway, with his Flawless Golden Immortal physical body, even if Water Blue Star was destroyed, there would be no problems with his physical body.
Real World.
After the failed lightning strike.
Heaven and Earth Will, however, did not despair or give up, or perhaps its weak intelligence did not understand what despair was, only knowing to operate according to the laws of heaven and earth.
Turning on its gravitational force.
Humm-
Water Blue Star emitted a peculiar wave.
If one were to zoom out and stand in the universe, looking at Water Blue Star, they would find that the space around it slightly collapsing, emitting an enormous gravitational force.
This is… trying to catch meteorites for another round of raining meteorites!
However.
A sad event took place.
The Heaven and Earth Will had exerted all its efforts to use its gravitational pull to catch meteorites surrounding Water Blue Star but caught nothing.
Empty and desolate-
All the meteorites around Water Blue Star and its moon, small as fists and large as mountains, had already been cleared by Xuanqing.
Wanting to rely on gravitational force to catch meteorites?
Not a chance!
As for manipulating gravity to cause destruction within Water Blue Star… that's even more impossible, much like humans being unable to control their cells to commit suicide..

Translator: 549690339
What to do?
The most powerful lightning can't kill him, the nearby universe's meteorites have all been cleared up, so there is no way to perform a meteor shower attack.
For the first time, after the birth of spirit wisdom, the Will of Heaven and Earth felt… despair!
Facing Xuanqing, who is such a cheater, what can he do as a small planet-level Will of Heaven and Earth besides waiting for death?
Just as the Will of Heaven and Earth was despairing.
On Water Blue Star, a major event occurred!
At least for human society, it was a very big and far-reaching event!
Interest rate hike.
The Beautiful Country, as the world's largest economy, released a global interest rate hike announcement and cut all unnecessary expenses.
And the cause of all this… was the loss of gold!
More than 700 tons of gold from Sakura Country and thousands of tons of gold from the Beautiful Country were lost.
If this were during the peak of economic prosperity, the loss of this gold, though painful, would not be a big deal.
But in the current era, which is already economically depressed and barely holding on, the loss of these gold is the equivalent of the straw that broke the camel's back.
Beautiful Country.
White Palace.
Plank, the leader, has a grim face and keeps flipping through the various documents on the table.
"Fack Squid, that damned predecessor, left such a mess."
"Also, over a thousand tons of gold just disappeared out of thin air. It's a joke."
"People, raise interest rates… keep raising them!"
Plank roars in anger.
But then…
A cautious staff member reminds him, "Respected leader, this is the third consecutive interest rate hike in half a month. The people of Erehua Street are already making a ruckus. 5f
if we continue to raise interest rates… I'm afraid…
Although the words were not finished, the meaning was clear.
Obviously, if he continues to raise interest rates, he won't be able to keep his position as leader.
"Huff-"
Plank takes a deep breath, his eyes flickering with indescribable color, then he takes a bold step and clenches his teeth to say:
"Then continue to cut spending, stop all research projects that have not produced results in ten years, and cut all projects except for economic development…. "
With a wave of Plank's hand, one economic policy after another was issued.
Beautiful Country, Fland State.
B-Hsan Biological Research Base.
A bearded middle-aged doctor is holding a phone, cursing constantly.
"You can't do this, this project has been going on…"
"Oh- Damn, they actually want to cut off the power, this is a crime, this will cause…"
Before he finished speaking, the other end of the phone hung up.
Beep… beep beep
Listening to the busy tone at the other end of the phone.
"Fack!" The bearded doctor cursed, and slammed the phone to the ground.
As the person in charge of the B-Hsan research base, he knew very well that once the research was forcibly interrupted…
Not only would previous efforts be wasted, but it could also potentially result in the biological materials not being properly handled due to lack of funding, eventually leading to…
Just a shortage of funding could lead to an inability to properly dispose of the biological waste, not to mention power cuts, there would definitely be problems.
"Damn politicians, this is bound to cause big trouble."
The bearded doctor's eyes flickered with uncertainty.
However.
An arm can't defeat a thigh.
He could only curse the damned higher-ups, dismiss the experiment staff, and then head to a secret room deep in the base.
In the end,
He walked to a control panel, and then pressed a button for full energy storage.
In an instant.
The research base turned into a whirlpool, frantically absorbing electricity, and even intercepting all the power that would have flowed into the city, eventually turning into stored energy for the base.
After doing all this,
The bearded doctor adjusted his glasses and murmured, "This stored energy can last a month, I hope it's not too late."
He wanted to freeze the base, then go to Button City, confront Plank, and tell him the consequences of cutting off the B-Hsan research base.
"Damn Plank, I hope you know what's good for you, or else I'll kick your ass, and I can do it."
The doctor was booking tickets on his phone while cursing non-stop.
Time quietly passes by.
Before anyone realized, over a month had passed.
In the atmosphere.
The light group formed by the Will of The Heaven and Earth of The Water Blue
Star is jumping up and down. If it could only speak…
It would definitely shout… I'm in a hurry, I'm really in a hurry.
Because in this two months, the whole Yan Country had expanded the path of cultivation from just the audience to include a small number of believers.
And moreover.
The number of people entering the path of cultivation every day is increasing at a multiple rate.
Under such circumstances, the "conflict" of the rules brought about for the Will of Heaven and Earth is extremely intense.
Just when the Will of Heaven and Earth was extremely anxious.
Suddenly.
In a hidden valley in Beautiful Country's Fland State, a great amount of disaster aura overflowed with an explosion.
Seeing this scene.
The Will of Heaven and Earth was overjoyed.
Such a good opportunity…it must be enhanced, heavily enhanced.
Controlling all the power of luck, it poured blessings onto this disaster aura that had suddenly appeared in the Beautiful Country, Fland State.
In an instant.
This disaster aura expanded several times, spreading at a visible speed.
The disaster aura is a power that combines negative energies such as unknown, plague, pain, disaster, etc.
Such a terrifying existence, having gained the full support of the Will of Heaven and Earth…
It is unknown what kind of impact this disaster aura will bring to humanity on the Water Blue Star.
Not to mention what on earth the will of heaven and earth in the real world is up to.
Shifting the focus back to the Game World.
Black Wind Mountain.
Half of the originally huge gold mountain had turned into gray-white stones, while the metallic Qi inside had been completely absorbed.
Ever since the last time his physical body in the real world was struck by a divine thunderbolt, nearly two months have passed.
At this moment.
Xuanqing's practice has also reached a very critical point.
More than half of the Gold Qi in his lungs has transformed into Chao Yuan; as long as he successfully transforms a small part left, he can successfully condense five elements Gold Qi Chao Yuan!
Suddenly.
Another prompt sounded.
[Beep…Congratulations to player Incense for accumulating five billion, Daoist
Immortal Officer has been promoted to… Secondary third-rank!]
As the sound of the quantifier fell.
The sky above Black Wind Mountain was also stirred by unusual phenomena.
However.
As if sensing that Xuanqing, the promoted immortal officer, was in a critical state of cultivation, even the astronomical phenomena did not disturb him.
It's worth mentioning that.
The reason why there wasn't a major heavenly phenomenon when promoted to secondary third-rank… was because the immortal officer above fourth-rank was not controlled by the rules of heaven and earth but was conferred by the Heavenly Court.
That is to say.
If he wants to change his own Daoist officer position to secondary third-rank, he needs to go to the heavens and have the Jade Emperor, who represents the will of heaven, personally confer the title in the Lingxiao Bao Hall.
"There's no rush for the conferring ceremony; I'll concentrate on condensing the Gold Qi Chao Yuan first!"
Xuanqing put the conferring matter out of his mind and focused on his cultivation.
However.
What he doesn't know.
A major global disaster is about to happen on Water Blue Star…
Real World.
Water Blue Star.
A large-scale flu is attacking, its spread is as widespread as the global pandemic of the Black Death hundreds of years ago.
Great Yan Kingdom naturally could not escape from this disaster.
It is rumored to have started from a marathon participant from Beautiful Country and quickly spread across the country.
City collapses, banks close, commercial areas shut down, only pharmacies and necessary hospitals remain open.
Panic is spreading.
Under these circumstances.
The Taoist temple suffered as well; to prevent the spread of the virus, all Taoist temples were closed.
As the sacred place of the Taoist, Qingping Temple was also shut down, and the once bustling temple had become deserted.
Main Hall of Qingping Temple.
Apart from Xuanming and Xuanjing, the two people in charge of the Taoist temple.
Three special guests were welcomed, namely Elder Jingde, Elder Qianqing, and Yang Ying, who was in charge of the business part of the Taoist temple.
All of a sudden.
Creak-
The door to the inner courtyard opened and a short, young-looking child walked out of it.
Seeing this situation.
Everyone stood up and hurriedly approached to inquire.
"Qingyun, how is it, have you contacted Sir yet?"
Report chapter Comments
Chapter 258: Chapter 244: Those who burn incense 100 times can enjoy free medical treatment for life, and even regrow severed limbs!
Translator: 549690339
"Did you contact Sir?"
Huai Qingyun shook his head and said, "I got no reply from the transmission, and there's a barrier around Sir, making it impossible to get close!"
Hearing that.
Everyone nodded disappointedly.
"Sigh… there have been continuous disasters these days." Elder Jingde sighed.
"Yeah, in just over a year's time, there was flooding, meteorites, and now an epidemic with such a huge impact."
Master Qianqing also chimed in.
"So what should we do now?" Yang Ying couldn't help but ask.
At the mention of this.
Everyone fell silent.
Though they possessed mana, they were powerless in the face of this global disaster.
More importantly.
This epidemic was no simple matter, and its symptoms couldn't be treated with ordinary medicine. Survival depended solely on one's luck!
In other words, if you were lucky, you'd live, but if you were unlucky, you'd die!
After a moment of silence.
Elder Jingde said, "Qingyun, as an Earth Deity, stay at the Qingping Temple and wait for the palace lord to finish his Closed-door Cultivation."
"Qianqing, Yang Ying, the three of us will each lead a team from the Law Enforcement Division, and treat the people in locations such as Changling and Jiang City."
"Prioritize treating children, then the elderly, followed by the incense guests who have faith in us…"
"Do your best… that's all!"
With that said.
Everyone nodded with a heavy heart.
Currently, there are no effective treatments for the epidemic, besides depending on the patients' luck. Those with mana can also use it to heal others.
Besides the three of them and the twenty-two members from the Law Enforcement Division in the Great Yan Kingdom.
The rest of the cultivators, not having practiced for long, were already fortunate enough to barely fend for themselves without Sir's support, let alone having the extra energy to heal others.
In the Game World, in the Black Wind Mountain Taoist Temple.
Atop a mountain of gold.
Xuanqing sat cross-legged.
He had spent more than half a year in Closed-door Cultivation, gathering Golden Qi Chao Yuan, and his whole body had turned golden, like a little golden figure.
It is worth mentioning that.
The reason for this was that he couldn't yet control the Five-Element Gold Qi Chao Yuan in his lungs, causing it to overflow.
By the time his golden skin completely disappears, he will have fully gathered the Golden Qi Chao Yuan.
At that time.
He would be able to control the rules of the Five Elements Gold with the
Chaoyuan Power of Gold Qi, officially stepping into the Five Qi Chaoyuan Stage.
His cultivation was now at its most critical point, and perhaps the next moment he would gather the power of the Golden Qi Chao Yuan.
[Ding… Someone is trying to communicate with you in the real world. Do you want to exit the game?]
At this critical moment of cultivation, the game's reminder sound rang in his mind.
However.
Xuanqing dared not be the slightest bit distracted, he could only temporarily block the reminder sound and continue to gather Chaoyuan.
Thus, time quietly passed as he focused on cultivation.
Finally.
The golden color on Xuanqing's body began to fade gradually.
"Condense!"
With a low cry.
Hong Hong-
The entire Black Wind Mountain region was surrounded by a sharp qi, which visibly spread out in all directions.
Black Wind Imperial City.
Being the city closest to Black Wind Sacred Mountain, it was naturally affected by the fluctuations caused by Xuanqing's breakthrough in cultivation on Black Wind Mountain.
At this moment.
Everyone in the city discovered that all metallic items, whether kitchen knives or iron pots, scythes or hammers…
The tips of these things all turned to face the direction of the Black Wind Sacred Mountain at the same time.
At this moment, all the chefs could only cut vegetables facing Black Wind Mountain, and all the hoes could only be dug in one direction….
What was even more shocking was.
The Forbidden Army in Black Wind City discovered that their swords and armor had started to emit a clear and melodious hum as if they were on a pilgrimage.
• •
On Black Wind Mountain.
Above a group of gold mountains that had turned to stone.
"I've broken through!"
Xuanqing stood up.
In an entire year's time, consuming over 1700 tons of gold, he finally completed the infusion of Gold Qi into his body and gathered the Chaoyuan of the Five Elements Gold Qi.
Glancing at the gold bricks turned to stone at his feet.
Xuanqing bent down to pick up a piece, and with a thought, he used the Golden Qi Chao Yuan power.
A miraculous change occurred.
The gray stone began to change colors at a speed visible to the naked eye; in no time, it turned into orange-yellow gold.
The transformation didn't stop there.
The color of the gold darkened further, eventually turning into a shining piece of Fine Iron.
"Five Elements Gold, controlling the rules of gold with Golden Qi Chao Yuan!"
Xuanqing murmured softly.
Meanwhile, the stone in his hand continued to transform into various metals, even the cultivation materials Cold Iron and Fine Iron could be easily changed.
It is worth mentioning that.
This change occurred at the most basic level of molecular arrangement and combination.
For example, something like…. turning stone into gold was only a temporary change through the forceful combination of mana. Once the traces of mana disappeared, the gold would revert to its original form.
"Let's try the offensive methods at the Five Qi Chaoyuan Stage!"
A glint flashed in Xuanqing's eyes.
The next moment.
He tossed the incredibly hard Diamond Essence he had transformed from the stone into the air.
With a puff-
The Diamond Essence turned into a sky full of fine sand, then wrapped itself around a target – a piece of solid Ironwood.
Just like a knife cutting through butter, the Diamond Essence effortlessly cut the Ironwood into powder..

A gentle breeze blew by.
The powdered ironwood scattered with the wind, disappearing from sight.
"From the surface, it seems to have a similar effect to the Samadhi Divine Wind!"
Upon witnessing this scene,
Xuanqing thought silently.
Of course, the Samadhi Divine Wind not only caused physical damage but could also harm the soul and even true spirits, which was unique and impossible to replicate.
However,
directly attacking with metal was the most basic application of the Five Elements Golden Qi, but it was actually not very impressive.
Generally speaking, such power was used to enhance other powers.
For example, enhancing formidable magic treasures, or enhancing powerful divine abilities, with the cultivation method playing a supporting role.
This was also a characteristic of the Journey to the West World.
If your cultivation wasn't overwhelmingly superior, then the outcome would depend entirely on the magic treasures and divine abilities. Whoever had the more potent magic treasure and more potent divine abilities would be the boss.
"Let's try to enhance a magic treasure!"
With a thought,
Xuanqing took out his duster and held it in his hand.
The handle of the duster was used by the Ancestor Master to drive cattle, and the tassel was composed of hairs from the tail of his mount, the azure bull. Both aspects were extraordinary!
Whoosh-
The duster swung.
Thousands of tassels spread out, seemingly transforming into countless sharp swords under the enhancement of the Five Elements Golden Qi, emanating a chilling aura.
"Go!"
With casual strike,
he pierced countless holes in Black Wind Mountain, which had already become a blessed land.
This scene,
terrified the Black Wind Mountain's Land God, who retreated into his divine realm, fearing that his lord might accidentally hurt him as well.
"Good, with a casual strike, it can penetrate a blessed land. If it were to hit a living being, it could instantly kill them and erase their existence!"
Xuanqing's face showed a satisfied smile.
For example,
if he were to face Venerable Fuhu again, just one swing of the duster would take him down on the spot, leaving no possibility of escape.
After verifying his cultivation,
Xuanqing returned to the room again.
"In the real world, Huai Qingyun has contacted me several times, fearing that something urgent has happened."
"There's no hurry to ascend to the Heavenly Court, let's exit the game first and see what has happened!"
Thinking this,
Xuanqing sat cross-legged and silently recited in his heart:
"Exit Game
Real World.
Qingping Temple.
Huai Qingyun lay on a cushion, his mouth clutching a foxtail grass, boredly counting the stars in the night sky.
However, there were too many stars in the universe that even an Earth God with great power could not count them all.
Suddenly,
a familiar voice sounded in his mind.
"Qingyun, come in!"
The sudden voice startled him, but he quickly realized that it was Sir returning from seclusion and commanding him to come inside.
Huai Qingyun's spirits lifted, and he quickly got up.
Entering the room,
Sir!
"Hmm."
Xuanqing nodded slightly, then asked seriously: "The many times you tried to contact me, was it because of this disaster and plague Qi spreading around?"
Upon returning to the game world, he naturally sensed the disaster Qi in his surroundings. Upon closer inspection, lo and behold… it was the plague Qi that had been transformed from the disaster Qi.
After hearing his lord's words,
Huai Qingyun was slightly stunned, then quickly said: "Sir is wise. Elder Jingde, Master Qianqing, and Sister Yang Ying all came here recently."
"Unfortunately, I couldn't contact you. They asked me to stay here, and once you return, I would inform them."
Hearing this,
"Alright, have them come over. I have things to discuss with them, and we might as well solve the plague Qi issue together!" Xuanqing waved his hand and spoke indifferently.
"Yes!" Huai Qingyun saluted.
Then,
as if he remembered something, he slapped his forehead and said: "By the way,
Sir, I've replaced… many overflowing Gathering Qi Beads."
"Here you go~"
As he spoke,
Huai Qingyun took out two Sumeru bags from his bosom.
Seeing this,
"Oh?" Xuanqing raised his eyebrows, somewhat surprised.
Who would have thought that his servant boy would also think and act on his own, knowing that Gathering Qi Beads would overflow and needed to be collected in advance?
"Qingyun, well done! You are indeed the most considerate servant boy under my tutelage!"
Xuanqing smiled in satisfaction and patted the other party's shoulder.
"Hehe~" Huai Qingyun chuckled foolishly and scratched his head bashfully.
After instructing Huai Qingyun to wait outside for the three people, Xuanqing placed the two filled Sumeru Bags in front of him and enveloped them with his divine soul.
With a single thought, he said, "Recharge ingots."
[Ding…. 1.51E ingots!]
This number didn't catch him by surprise.
Because during his closed-door cultivation in the game, he had already received the Immortal Officer Promotion notice which required an accumulated five hundred million incense offerings to advance from third-rank.
Before entering the game, he already had accumulated three hundred and fifty million, and naturally, he could calculate that there must be at least one hundred and fifty million worth of gains.
"I was in closed-door cultivation for over a year, and by the ninth month, I had already received the notice of Immortal Officer promotion," he said.
"In other words… the incense offerings have barely increased in the following months?" Xuanqing couldn't help but be curious.
However, when he saw the vast amount of plague qi in the air, he suddenly understood why.
He remembered that soon after the Immortal Officer Promotion notice appeared, he received a message from the Real World.
It must have been around that time when the Real World's Taoist temple had to close due to the plague qi, and naturally, there were no more incense offerings coming in.
Without dwelling on this issue any further, Xuanqing mentally commanded,

[Ingots: 310 million (total of 510 million)
In the Character Panel, there wasn't much to say about the ingots. Practicing Golden Qi Chao Yuan almost didn't consume any, and along with the gains this time, he now had a little over three hundred million.
As for the '[Grade]' column, it was still 'fourth-rank', and he estimated that only after going to Lingxiao Bao Hall to be named could it be promoted to secondary third-rank.
What was of particular interest was the '[Cultivation]' column. As he condensed his Five Elements Golden Qi, his previous Late Stage of Integration of Void Stage peak had successfully entered the Late Stage.
As long as all the Five Elements and Chaoyuan powers were gathered, the Integration of Void Stage realm would be considered thoroughly completed.
Speaking of which,
In the cultivation world, forming an Immortal Body and entering the Integration of Void Stage was considered as stepping into the door of cultivation. It was not unreasonable.
Aside from anything else, just the number of small realms within the Integration of Void Stage alone was more than the total number of realms before becoming an Immortal combined.
The Five Qi Chaoyuan Stage of the Taoist cultivation world was also known as "Taiyi Golden Immortal."
In other words,
attaining the Five Qi Chaoyuan – Taiyi Golden Immortal was the last realm within the Integration of Void Stage.
Beyond that!
One would enter the Great Luo stage, transcending the Five Elements and mastering Yin and Yang.
The Great Luo stage, even within the Game World, could be considered a significant figure and be barely counted as a Great Power in the Three Realms.
Such a high level was not something that could be attained solely through cultivation; it required both luck and talent.
Of course,
All these goals were still far away for the current Xuanqing.
Just the process of gathering the Five Qi Chaoyuan would need to consume a lot of time.
The further one progressed in cultivation, the more time-consuming it would become, and the difficulty in advancing exponentially increased.
Just as Xuanqing was deep in thought,
Boom- Boom-
Three helicopters landed in the temple's parking lot, Elder Jingde, Qianqing, and Yang Ying descended from them.
"We pay our respects to the temple master!"
Once they entered the courtyard,
The three of them formed hand seals simultaneously and raised them above their heads in reverence before performing a ritual salute.
At the sight,
Xuanqing nodded slightly and then spoke indifferently, "I am already aware of the plague qi issue. Thank you for your efforts during this time."
As soon as these words were spoken,
The three exchanged glances and each let out a sigh of relief in their hearts.
They knew very well that this calamity, even for their all-powerful temple master, was not a big deal. Like the previous meteorite incident, it was easily resolved without much fuss.
"This time, in addition to dealing with the epidemic qi, I also want to provide a benefit to the believers," Xuanqing said after a brief pause.
"Anyone who has come to the temple to burn incense a hundred times can receive free medical treatment for life, including….amputated limbs and disability!"

Chapter 260: Chapter 245: 7 Million Plague Dispelling Jade Talismans, Sealing Heaven and Earth's Will!
Translator: 549690339
Can those who have offered incense a hundred times be granted free life-long healing?
Even for… amputees?
Such words…
Have left the three of them in shock.
"Lord of the Palace, by 'amputee1… do you mean healing the amputee and regenerating the limb?"
Elder Jingde asked tentatively, somewhat uncertain.
In response.
"Indeed, including limb regeneration, even cancer can be healed!" Xuanqing replied casually.
"Ah… this., this…"
Everyone looked at each other, surprise evident in each other's eyes.
Of course.
They were stunned not by the capability of their palace lord, after all, having previously hand-scooped meteorites, what amounted to mere limb regeneration?
However…
Something the palace lord could do casually… was impossible for them, regardless of the difficulties.
This meant that these patients would require the personal intervention of the palace lord.
Considering how this news would attract people, let alone the nearly seven thousand Taoist temples in the dao gates now.
That's right… Within just over a month, the number of Taoist temples increased from the original five thousand to seven thousand.
Facing such a huge group… even with the vast divine powers of the Palace Lord, even if he stopped practicing, he would not be able to keep up with the demand for healing even if he worked tirelessly.
At this moment.
Seeing the look of disbelief on everyone's faces.
Xuanqing gave a faint smile.
He naturally knew what everyone was thinking, and as he waved his right hand, he took out a Plague Dispelling Jade Talisman from his Game Backpack!
Whoosh-
The palm-sized, flawlessly white talisman floated in the air, radiating an aura of tranquility.
"This is the Plague Dispelling Jade Talisman, it can be used to cure the plague. Depending on the severity of the plague, it can be used two or three times. If it is used for common colds caused by wind chill or damp heat, it can be used at least ten to twenty times."
"When the energy of the talisman is depleted, it can be stored in the Taoist temple to absorb the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth for recovery, and then used in a cycle!"
As he spoke, he paused for a moment.
After pondering.
Xuanqing looked at Elder Jingde and asked, "Elder Jingde, how many Taoist temples do the Dao gate have now?"
Upon hearing this.
Elder Jingde, who was still looking at the Plague Dispelling Jade Talisman floating in the air, subconsciously replied:
"Exactly seven thousand Taoist temples!"
Seven thousand?
Xuanqing nodded and murmured in his heart.
"Purchase seven million Plague Dispelling Jade Talismans."
"Purchase seven thousand Xumi Bags."
[Ding… -1.4E ingots!]
[Ding… -14 Million ingots!]
Accompanied by two notification sounds, seven million Plague Dispelling Jade Talismans and seven thousand Xumi Bags appeared in the Game Backpack.
With a thought.
Xuanqing put the seven million Plague Dispelling Jade Talismans evenly into these Xumi Bags, and then took them out of the Game Backpack.
Whoosh-
Seven thousand Xumi bags piled together, looking like a small hill.
Quick glance.
Everyone's attention was immediately drawn from the Plague Dispelling Jade Talisman momentarily floated to the Xumi bags on the ground, puzzled as to why their palace lord had brought out so many Xumi bags.
In the next moment.
They heard a startling statement from their palace lord's mouth, and also understood the palace lord's previous words.
"Everyone, there are seven thousand Xumi bags here, each containing a thousand Plague Dispelling Jade Talismans."
"Next, distribute these Xumi bags to the lords of the seven thousand Taoist temples to resolve the plague first!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Boom-
Everyone was dumbfounded, their hearts beating violently, as if they had been struck in the chest with a hammer.
Seven…seven million talismans?
Even if one could be refined in a second, that would still be seven million seconds… calculating it, it would take eighty-one days of non-stop work.
"Very well, I can't manage other places, but I'll leave the plague in Great Yan to the three of you."
"Regarding the use of the Plague Dispelling Jade Talisman, I have only two words… fairness, fairness, and fairness!"
With these words.
Xuanqing's expression became serious, and his gaze swept over the three of them.
In his heart, whether rich or influential, as long as they are people of the Great Yan, as long as they are incense guests of the Taoist temple, they are all the same.
Perhaps… only those whose faith is sincere can catch his eye, and even if they are lucky, it is not impossible to bestow some fortune on them.
At these words.
Everyone nodded solemnly.
"Rest assured, sir, we will be fair and just!"
They had already made up their minds that these Plague Dispelling Jade Talismans would first be used for the seriously ill, as life is precious.
As for the incense guests of the Taoist temple, they ranked second in priority, while the healthy young men and women could only.
Seeing them.
Xuanqing nodded slightly.
"I'm going to the moon, you all go about your business."
As his words fell.
Divine Ability: Earth Traversal Golden Light…With a flash of light, Xuanqing's figure disappeared from the courtyard.
"Farewell, Palace Lord!"
"Farewell, Sir!"
Upon seeing this, everyone, including Huai Qingyun… bowed in salute.
Saluting.
As the elder, Elder Jingde immediately started arranging tasks.
"For this plague, I plan to treat it on a street-by-street basis, contacting local communities for centralized treatment."
"Taoist brother Qianqing, mobilize the Research and Study Academy to bring out all the students to assist the temple lords."
"Yang Ying, you're responsible for assuring the supply of daily necessities, and for negotiating with community and street offices."
One order after another was issued from Elder Jingde's mouth..

Translator: 549690339
After hearing this.
Elder Qianqing nodded his head, addressed the Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate, and then left on a helicopter.
Now.
The three of them, or rather the higher-ups of the entire Taoist sect, were all using helicopters for their commute.
This was not to show off, but purely for efficiency, to better serve the palace lord.
"By the way, Elder Jingde, how do we distribute the supporting supplies?
Should we offer them for free, or should we charge for costs?"
Yang Ying asked ponderingly.
Upon hearing this.
Elder Jingde slightly contemplated.
After thinking.
He said, "The supplies should be rationed according to the population, as for costs… they can't be free. Let's charge the basic cost, otherwise… there are always some people who do not value things!"
"Okay, I got it!"
Yang Ying nodded in understanding.
Human nature… is not something to be taken lightly. Sometimes, charging a modest fee for certain things could actually yield better results.
At this point.
A childish voice echoed.
"What about me., what should I do?"
Huai Qingyun's eyes widened as he looked at elder Jingde assigning tasks to others while he was left idle, prompting him to ask.
Upon hearing his words.
Elder Jingde hesitated for a moment.
He fell silent!
A troubled expression appeared on his face because he really didn't know what kind of task to assign to the palace lord's child.
When he saw the anticipation in the other person's eyes, he didn't have the heart to reject him outright.
After giving it some thought.
Elder Jingde suggested, "Well, you are skilled in the art of flight. How about helping with the transportation of goods using the Sumeru Bag?"
"Hmm, your suggestion is good, my flying skills are indeed superior."
Pride shone in Huai Qingyun's eyes, he then raised his head and stated, "In the present world, no one is faster than me, except for the palace lord!"
"Pfft~"
A burst of delicate laughter resounded.
"Hey., hey, Sister Yang Ying, what are you laughing at? Did I say something wrong?" Huai Qingyun glared at her, feeling disgruntled.
However.
As soon as he said this.
Yang Ying's laughter grew even louder.
Seeing the intense contrast between Huai Qingyun's childish face and his 'I am serious' 'I am a master' expressions, she couldn't help laughing.
She stepped forward, pinched Huai Qingyun's face, and then simply hugged him close and showered him with affection.
"Eh… what are you., ouch, I… I…"
Huai Qingyun's face flushed red. He tried to break free, but at the same time, he was afraid of accidentally hurting Sister Yang Ying, and could only squirm his head.
Seeing this scene.
From the side, Elder Jingde stroked his beard and chuckled, shaking his head to interrupt their playfulness, "Alright, alright, with the catastrophe aura spreading, we should really get to work now!"
With that.
The duo finally stopped playing around and bid farewell to Elder Jingde together before leaving together.
Here.
In space.
A golden beam of light raced through and finally landed on the moon. This was Xuanqing, who had cast Earth Leaping Golden Light from Water Blue Star.
"As expected of one of the Ten Great Spiritual Roots of Heaven and Earth, in such a short time, the spiritual Qi here is as rich as it is in Black Wind Mountain!"
Xuanqing looked at the Ginseng Fruit Tree with a sense of awe.
Be aware.
Originally, there was no spiritual Qi on the moon. It was all thanks to the Ginseng Fruit Tree absorbing the Chaotic Qi and giving back spiritual Qi. Moreover, the concentration of spiritual Qi was still being constantly absorbed by the array disk.
It had been over a month since he last used time acceleration on the Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling.
Xuanqing could sense that the Chaos Space where the roots of the Ginseng Fruit Tree resided had fully recovered and could be sped up again.
With this.
He didn't hesitate.
"Use two hundred thousand years of time acceleration!"
[Ding.. -200W Ingots!]
Accompanied by the deduction of two million ingots, an unfathomable fluctuation descended upon the Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling.
In an instant!
The Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling started quivering non-stop and its roots were growing crazily, continuously expanding in the Chaos Space.
Its height… increased rapidly, visible to the naked eye.
A hundred meters… several hundred meters… thousands of meters… several thousand meters… it continued to grow several thousand meters before stopping.
However.
The cessation of height-growth didn't mean the Ginseng Fruit Tree had stopped growing. The colour of its leaves was heading towards a deeper shade.
A full two hundred thousand years of time acceleration isn't completed so easily.
This moment.
Looking at the rapidly changing Ginseng Fruit Tree in front of him.
Xuanqing couldn't help but feel emotional.
Every time he used the 'time acceleration' function, he would marvel at its wonder.
This function had gone against the basic principles, both in the realm of cultivation and in the reality of the scientific world.
However.
He believed.
As his cultivation level improved, he would eventually understand the principle of 'time acceleration,' and figure out what's the deal with this login device.
About four hours later.
The time acceleration of 200,000 years ended.
What entered his sight.
Was a near ten-thousand-meter-tall ginseng fruit tree seedling, no longer be called a seedling now.
no, it should
With the previous 200,000 years of acceleration, this Ginseng Fruit Tree has grown for 400,000 years now.
It had crossed nearly half of the maturity period of 1.16 million years, making it a young Ginseng Fruit Tree.
More importantly.
The density of the spiritual qi around exceeded that of Black Wind Mountain.
"Whew~"
Xuanqing couldn't help closing his eyes and taking a deep breath.
Inhaling such rich spiritual qi into his lungs, although it couldn't provide him with any increase in cultivation, it was extremely pleasing to the heart.
After enjoying this for a moment.
Xuanqing opened his eyes.
"View Character Panel!

In the ingot column of the character panel.
Originally had just over 300 million, exchanged 7 million Plague Dispelling Jade Talismans, 7000 Sumeru Bags, and now used 200,000 years of time acceleration for the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
In the end…only a little over 160 million remains.
"I didn't expect that as the income from incense increased, the expenses would also increase."
"However…once this disaster aura is resolved, there will probably be a huge burst in the harvest from the incense power!"
Xuanqing thought to himself.
Of course.
About the incense belief.
Xuanqing had always held the attitude of 'letting nature take its course' in development.
Otherwise.
With his current cultivation, he could completely force all the humans on Water Blue Star to believe in him.
But wouldn't that go against his true intentions?
He was invincible in the real world, and had infinite resurrection in the game world. Besides, with the backing of his Ancestor Master, he was considered half invincible.
So.
Unless he encountered…a catastrophe that would cause him to perish if he didn't do so, he would not be willing to do that.
Of course, these were all digressions.
At this moment.
Xuanqing was pondering.
What should he do next?
He originally planned
After condensing the Golden Qi Chao Yuan, he would go to the Heavenly Court to receive his investiture. Then he would continue to cultivate, following the sequence of the Five Elements, to begin absorbing the water qi into his body.
But looking at the current situation….
If he doesn't fully resolve this Will of Heaven and Earth, afraid that as soon as he just enters the game, who knows what mischief it will cause.
While the Will of Heaven and Earth can't harm him, the humans on Water Blue Star couldn't bear it.
"The human path has just been established, with no trace of the earthly or heavenly paths. I can't get rid of the devouring Will of Heaven and Earth yet."
"S0…I can only temporarily control it by using a seal. When the time is ripe…I'll swallow it in one go!"
A hint of coldness flashed in Xuanqing's eyes.
Speaking of which.
Ever since he achieved his immortal body, this Will of Heaven and Earth has been occasionally popping up, just like a pesky fly, causing annoyance.
However.
To seal this Will of Heaven and Earth, the prerequisite is that he can find it.
"This Will of Heaven and Earth pops out and causes trouble as soon as I enter the game, which should have given it intelligence!"
"It seems…I need to put in some effort!"
Xuanqing looked at the void, with an unfathomable look in his eyes..

Translator: 549690339
While Xuanqing on the moon was busy figuring out how to find the Heaven and Earth Will.
Water Blue Star.
Under Elder Jingde's command, the entire Taoist temple began to operate like a giant, intricate machine at high speed.
First, the twenty-two Law Enforcement Division members distributed throughout Yan Country started issuing orders to the Taoist temples under their jurisdiction.
On Elder Qianqing's side, he was assigning the tens of thousands of students from the Daoist Academy to more than seven thousand Taoist temples across the country based on the number of patients.
For material transportation, Yang Ying and Huai Qingyun cooperated with each other, the former responsible for maritime and river transport across provinces.
Meanwhile, the latter used his mobility and the convenience of the Sumeru Bag to quickly transport supplies within the province.
In an apartment in a high-rise residential community in Changling City.
Zhang Debiao felt heavy-hearted.
As a forty-year-old man, with parents in their sixties above him and a teenaged child below him, the entire burden of life was pressing upon his body.
"Old Zhang, the food is ready."
A gentle voice came from the direction of the kitchen.
Then
A woman wearing an apron, with a mask covering her face, and holding three lunch boxes in her hands, walked over to Zhang Debiao.
"This one's yours!" The woman placed one of the lunch boxes on the tea table.
Seeing this scene,
Zhang Debiao squeezed out a smile, even though life was difficult, at least he had a virtuous wife.
"Wife, thank you for your hard work!"
The woman wearing the apron wiped the sweat from her forehead, a worried look on her face, "It's not that I'm tired, it's just., our vegetables are all gone." "And…the child's appetite is getting worse, I'm worried………………………………………………. "
Upon hearing her words,
Zhang Debiao's smile became slightly stiff, but he quickly regained his composure, trying to steady his emotions and comfort her: "It's okay, wife, trust me, this will all pass. In a while, I'll go out and see if I can get some food!" "Mhm!"
The woman nodded her head, "Be careful when you go out, I'll go and take some food to your mom and Le Le."
With that,
She took the lunch boxes and headed upstairs, where the child and mother were staying, trying to minimize contact with the outside world.
It's worth mentioning that,
Their family lived in a two-bedroom, one-living-room duplex, which was more affordable than a regular flat.
The living room.
Click-
Zhang Debiao, leaning on the sofa, lit a cigarette.
In reality,
He was not as confident as he had been in front of his wife, but as a man, he had to hold up even if the sky was falling.
If even he panicked and was afraid, it would only bring more fear to his wife and children and have no use at all.
Suddenly.
Buzz-
The mobile phone on the tea table vibrated, displaying a text message from the community.
[Community Notification: Please…. ]
Reading the content of the message.
Zhang Debiao's body shuddered.
Disbelievingly, he rubbed his eyes and looked at the mobile screen again, making sure it wasn't his imagination before he jumped up with excitement.
"Damn… Damn… Le Le… Le Le is saved!"
At this moment,
The woman in the apron had just come out of the inner room and was startled by her husband's loud outburst.
"Old Zhang, what's…what's going on…?"
"Wife, wife, come here, our Le Le is saved!" Zhang Debiao embraced his wife excitedly and shouted.
Only after seeing the puzzled look on his wife's face did he suddenly realize, quickly letting go of his wife and picking up the phone from the table..

"Look, there's a message from the street office saying that the Taoists have developed a way to deal with the epidemic and are prioritizing the treatment of critically ill patients and children…" Zhang Dcbiao pointed at the text message while explaining.
The woman was slightly taken aback, and after receiving the phone to check the message,
She covered her mouth in disbelief.
Two lines of hot tears… fell.
"Let's take Le Le and my mom and go to Yufu Square!"
"Okay!"
Zhang Dcbiao nodded.
Then the two of them put on their masks, completed the disinfection work, and took their child and old mother with them, opening the long-unopened door!
Yufu Square!
There were already hundreds of people gathered here.
It's worth mentioning that,
although there were many people, it was not crowded and noisy. Everyone was quietly lining up in a queue, and there was a certain distance between each other.
The reason for this was not because everyone's quality had suddenly improved, but because those who were of poor quality were either in an infected state, with no energy to make a fuss, or simply dead, making it impossible to make a fuss.
What was left… were honest people!
Zhang Debiao's family… were naturally among the honest people.
They were not very close to the street office, so by the time they arrived, there was already a long queue in front of them.
Finally.
After waiting in line for half an hour, they made it to the front.
In front of them was an old Taoist priest dressed in a Taoist robe with gray hair at his temples, and standing beside him were two young men also wearing Taoist robes.
"Layman…let the patient sit in the chair!"
A deep and mellow voice sounded; it was the old Taoist priest speaking.
"Oh, oh~"
Zhang Dcbiao reacted and hurriedly helped his elderly mother to a seat.
In the following moments,
Something unbelievable happened.
The old Taoist priest actually took out from a box at the side…a jade talisman?
"Ah…what is this?"
Zhang Dcbiao looked on in disbelief.
Originally,
He had thought the old Taoist would take out something like a pill or a medicinal soup.
He never expected that the so-called solution to the illness would actually…involve using a jade talisman to make a swipe.
However,
Something even more unbelievable happened.
The old Taoist held the jade talisman and gently waved it at Zhang Debiao's mother.
Afterward,
It seemed as if a white light…vanished in an instant, then surged towards his mother.
However, due to the speed being too fast, it wasn't visible what it was.
Zhang Dcbiao was taken aback, rubbed his eyes, and was just about to ask something when,
Suddenly!
"Ah…"
The old lady in the chair let out a soft moan before touching her head and exclaiming in astonishment:
"It doesn't hurt anymore… Son, my head doesn't hurt anymore!" The old lady stood up and grabbed her son's hand.
???
• •
Zhang Dcbiao was dumbfounded.
His wife behind him was also dumbfounded.
What was going on? Just a few moments ago, his mother had been on the verge of death, barely able to walk even with assistance.
How could she…be alright in just an instant?
While he was still stunned.
At the side,
The young Taoist said, "Layman, it's time for your child to come up!"
Upon hearing this,
Zhang Debiao finally snapped out of it and hurriedly brought his son up from behind to sit on the chair.
He widened his eyes and stared straight at the old Taoist, wanting to see how the man did it.
The next moment.
He saw…the old Taoist first checked the jade talisman in his hand, made sure it was fine…then repeated his previous action.
The jade talisman swayed gently.
"Hiss-"
Zhang Debiao gasped in surprise.
This time,
He could clearly see that a ball of white mist shot out from the jade talisman and entered his son's body in a wisp of smoke.
Following that,
Like before, his son instantly turned lively and energetic.
"Son, you…you're okay now!"
Just like the scene with Zhang Debiao's family and Yufu Square, similar incidents were unfolding in various cities across Yan Country.
The technique of using a 'jade talisman' to instantly heal a person's illness shocked everyone.
The worldview that had been formed over so many years was severely challenged.
Some clever people even connected this incident to the previous meteorite fall.
More importantly,
Someone posted their experience on Wcibo, which instantly attracted explosive attention.
On the microblogging portal website,
The top ten trending posts were all related to this incident.
Among them…the hottest one was a post called 'Catching Meteorites, Jade Talisman Healing, Spiritual Qi Revival?'
In the post,
It detailed the previous meteorite fall and this time…the occurrences of Taoists using jade talismans to heal illnesses all over the Great Yan Kingdom.
Furthermore…videos of both incidents were attached.
This post had only been up for half an hour, and it already had over a million views, thousands of comments, and the numbers were still rising exponentially.
"Front row!"
"Is it true or false? Have you been reading too many fantasy novels?"
"To the one above, I don't know about jade talisman healing, but the meteorite incident was live-streamed, and I saw it with my own eyes in the live streaming room."
"I can testify, it's all true, my dad was seriously ill and couldn't move; fortunately, an old Taoist priest came to our door…."
"I can also testify…this is all true…."
"Idiot…this had already been on Station A for a long time; if you don't believe it, just search the videos."
Apart from the microblogging portal website and the others,

Translator: 549690339
Even more buzzing places were major video apps, such as Chattering, Slow Hand, Station A, etc…
Countless people filmed the Daoist curing diseases with the jade brand and uploaded them to these video websites.
And… they successfully released the videos, without being blocked.
Because of this situation.
Countless netizens quarantined at home were stunned and started to guess… whether spiritual Qi was about to be revived.
Some of the more enthusiastic practitioners even decided that once this disaster passed, they would go to the Taoist temple to become apprentices.
No matter how lively the internet was, it did not affect the actions of the Taoists at all.
With the huge number of 7 million Plague Dispelling Jade Talismans.
In just a few days, the whole situation in the Great Yan Country was brought under control, with only a few scattered infected individuals left.
At the same time.
A burgeoning wave of people going to the Taoist temple to apprentice in cultivation was about to begin.
Those who had benefited from the disaster, netizens wanting to apprentice in cultivation, and the ordinary people who came to join in the excitement… were all participants in this wave.
To the current 7,000 Taoist temples in Yan Country, this was undoubtedly a huge challenge and a great opportunity.
Just as the Great Yan Country was bustling with excitement.
On this side.
Deep within the atmosphere of the Water Blue Star, a white mist was hiding, which was the incarnation of the Will of The Heaven and Earth of The Water Blue Star.
However.
At this moment, the Heaven and Earth Will had shrunken a little, and the whole mist was shivering, as if conveying a sense of fear.
What could make the Heaven and Earth Will afraid?
It was, of course, Daoist Xuanqing, who was wearing a Daoist robe and holding a feather duster.
At this moment.
Looking at the shivering white mist in front of him, even not knowing how to escape, Xuanqing was speechless.
"Since you've given birth to spiritual intelligence and dared to provoke me repeatedly, haven't you thought of such a day?" Xuanqing asked indifferently.
As soon as he spoke.
The white mist shook even harder, as if to say… if you continue to scare him, he'll die on the spot.
???
• •
Three question marks appeared over Xuanqing's head.
Speaking honestly.
He had never seen anything so timid in his life. Could it be pretending to deceive him?
"Forget it, whether real or fake, I'll first seal this little thing up and then talk!"
Xuanqing thought to himself.
Don't be fooled by its timid appearance. If it's not restrained, another wave of disaster aura might surface and the humans on the Water Blue Star would suffer.
Luck Jade Seal!
A square jade seal with a moon carving floated in the air, radiating a mysterious aura.
It's worth mentioning that.
This white mist is the incarnation of the Heaven and Earth Will, which can't be caught by ordinary means. It could only be controlled by the Luck Jade Seal with the addition of Black Wind Country's Qi.
At this moment.
Feeling the immense Human Path Qi from the Luck Jade Seal.
"Squeak-"
The white mist let out a terrified scream, wanting to escape in its heart, but its body was completely unresponsive.
Suddenly.
With a violent convulsion, its entire white mist body had fainted.
"Tsk tsk~"
Xuanqing shook his head, feeling a sense of anticlimax.
Originally.
He had been prepared for a fierce struggle, but he never expected things to turn out so strangely.
The Luck Jade Seal had just been activated, and even before the next move was made, the opponent had already fainted in fear.
"Go!"
Xuanqing's duster shook, and thousands of dust filaments extended out, wrapping up the fainted Heaven and Earth Will.
The next moment.
With Earth Leaping Golden Light,
He had already appeared on the moon.
That's right.
Xuanqing planned to seal the Heaven and Earth Will on the moon using the power of formations.
Although this approach only treated the symptoms, it at least provided temporary relief and allowed him to focus on cultivating.
As long as he could open the Three Ways of Heaven, Earth, and Human, then release it and devour it in one fell swoop… everything would be fine!
Under the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
Xuanqing shook his duster, throwing the Heaven and Earth Will onto the ground.
"Plop-"
The white mist-shaped Heaven and Earth Will tumbled on the ground a few times before stopping.
Perhaps it was because of the rich Heaven and Earth spiritual energy on the
Moon… that it actually awakened the other party.
Just regaining consciousness.
The Heaven and Earth Will saw the terrifying figure.
"Squeak…"
First, there was a sharp scream.
Immediately after.
A soft and glutinous voice sounded directly in Xuanqing's mind.
"Don't kill me…I was wrong, boo hoo- Take this origin, I don't want it anymore!"
"Eh… the spiritual intelligence of this little thing has grown so much that it can talk now?" Xuanqing was slightly startled.
No, that's not right.
More precisely, this Heaven and Earth Will expressed what it wanted to say in the form of signal waves.
However.
Just as Xuanqing pondered…
The Heaven and Earth Will thought that its surrender was useless, and it became even more frightened. Fortunately, it didn't have to worry about that, otherwise, it would probably leak urine.
It gritted its teeth.
"Please, I beg you… I… I will recognize you as my master, please don't kill me!"
As the words fell.
Whoosh-
A ray of light shot out from the white mist, transforming into a glass bead-sized ball of light, and then stopped in front of Xuanqing.
It actually directly…. separated a strand of its True Spirit… and offered it as a sacrifice!
Xuanqing's mouth twitched slightly.
This little thing… was really… interesting.
But.
Faced with this proactively delivered Heaven and Earth Will, he naturally could not refuse, and immediately…accepting the true spirit into his game backpack.
Seeing this scene.
The Heaven and Earth Will in the white mist state let out a sigh of relief.
Although separating a strand of True Spirit meant that life and death were in the hands of others, at least… there was no need to worry about being killed by this terrifying guy… No, it should be the great Master.
"Master, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt the Human Race."
"It's just that your aura is too great, and the rules of Water Blue Star can't bear it, so the rules automatically counterattack…"
As it spoke.
It carefully raised its head to look, and when it saw the smile on its master's face, it quickly explained:
"I… I just gave a gentle push, really, this disaster aura… It came from the Beautiful Country of the Human Race."
"I swear…even if I don't give it a push, it will eventually become like this."
As soon as these words came out.
Xuanqing felt a bit surprised.
Now that the Heaven and Earth Will has recognized him as its master, naturally, there is no need to deceive him about this.
With this in mind.
Xuanqing closed his eyes, and his hands constantly changed their seal positions.
Thirty-Six Heavenly Arts. Knowing the Future Reversely!
In an instant.
The cause and effect of this disaster aura, like a slideshow, quickly played in his mind.
From the beginning of going to Sakura Country to get gold, to later going to Beautiful Country to get gold, causing a financial crisis, Beautiful Country's bank implementing a global interest rate hike, suspending all scientific research projects other than commercial…
And….a biological laboratory in the State of Viang… and finally, gently pushed by the Heaven and Earth Will with luck.
Just like that.
A global disaster unraveled.
"It turns out… this matter is also indirectly related to me."
Xuanqing suddenly understood.
Fortunately.
He immediately exchanged 7 million Plague Dispelling Jade Talismans after returning to the real world, and used the power of the entire Daoist sect to dispel the disaster aura.
Although the Great Yan Kingdom suffered a huge economic loss, there was no loss of life. Even some of the patients' previous illnesses were cured under the treatment of the Plague Dispelling Jade Talisman.
He shook his head… not thinking about the disaster anymore.
Right now, the Heaven and Earth Will has been taken as a servant, so there is no need to worry about this in the future.
Afterwards.
His gaze looked at the Heaven and Earth Will in front of him.
"Do you have a name?" Xuanqing asked solemnly.
"Master, I just gained my spiritual intelligence not long ago and haven't named myself yet," the Heaven and Earth Will carefully replied.
Upon hearing this.
Xuanqing thought for a moment and said, "In that case, I will give you a name!"
"Since you are the incarnation of the Heaven and Earth Will of Water Blue Star,
I shall grant you a single surname… Cang!"
"As for the name… let's see, the 'Yu' from the universe, magnificent but not vulgar, plus the 'Qing' character."
Cang Qingyu… Cang Qingyu?
A swirling ball of white mist that was the Heaven and Earth Will muttered its own name softly..

Chapter 265: Chapter 248: Chaos in Qingping View!
Translator: 549690339
"Cang Qingyu!"
Xuanqing called out softly.
"Master… Qingyu is here!"
Heaven and Earth Will… No, now it should be called Cang Qingyu, hurriedly approached… his cloud-like figure constantly twisting, as if to please and flatter.
Seeing this.
Xuanqing frowned slightly.
Cang Qingyu's form was still a mass of white mist, looking like a lump of cotton candy, devoid of the grace of Heaven and Earth Will.
How to say it… Heaven and Earth Will is considered the Heavenly Path of a small world and the "heavens" in the mouths of living beings, but the result is this, which is really speechless.
Perhaps sensing his master's dissatisfaction.
Cang Qingyu's heart trembled, and his cloud-like body twisted even more violently.
Even.
Worried that his master wouldn't realize he was trying to please, he condensed his misty body into… a human face shape with a flattering, fawning smile.
Upon seeing this scene.
Xuanqing couldn't help but shake his head.
However… if Heaven and Earth Will wasn't like this, it probably wouldn't have voluntarily come forward to acknowledge a master.
After thinking about it… anyway, he didn't expect to use this thing to fight against enemies, so a timid character… is better than being bold and reckless- causing trouble for no reason.
"Qingyu, would you like to stay on the moon or follow me back to the Water Blue Star?" Xuanqing asked afterwards.
"I.. I'll follow Master!" Cang Qingyu said cautiously.
Hearing this.
Xuanqing nodded slightly.
Afterwards… he flicked the whisk in his hand, and it transformed into countless threads, wrapping Cang Qingyu, and heading towards the Water Blue Star while using the Thirty-Six Heavenly Arts. Earth Leaping Golden Light!
"Ah… Master, don't kill me, I was wrong…"
Cang Qingyu's face changed dramatically, and he wailed in fear, his voice so mournful that it was as if a little girl had been violated.
He couldn't help it.
"Shut up!" Xuanqing scolded harshly, almost cursing.
He almost died from anger because of Cang Qingyu. He fucking acknowledged me as his master and still worried about being killed. Is there a bubble in his mind?
A golden light burst into the sky from the Moon and flew towards the turquoise blue planet.
Then.
Cang Qingyu realized that his master didn't want to kill him but take him back to the Water Blue Star, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Water Blue Star.
Just entering the atmosphere.
Xuanqing felt a repelling force squeezing him and immediately looked at Cang Qingyu beside him.
"Qingyu, can't you control this repulsive force?"
He didn't think… with Cang Qingyu's courage, under such circumstances, he would dare to use this repulsive force to disgust him. It must be for some special reason.
As expected.
Upon hearing Xuanqing's words.
Cang Qingyu shivered and was about to scream out of instinct but remembered that it was not allowed by his master, and forcefully suppressed this physiological reaction.
"Master, I… I can't control it, I can't interfere with the things in the real world… at most… at most I can only add fuel to the flames!"
Hearing this.
Xuanqing nodded slightly.
The result was similar to his guess in his heart. Heaven and Earth Will, if it were in the Game World… well… Rule Essence?
So, Cang Qingyu… actually should be a… Rule Spirit?
At this moment.
Seeing the strange look in his master's eyes, Cang Qingyu shrank his neck, and his heart was filled with both fear and panic. Could it be that his master wanted to eat him?
Seeing this.
Xuanqing couldn't help it anymore and solemnly asked, "I don't understand, Qingyu… why are you so afraid of me… Can I really eat you?"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Cang Qingyu's eyes dodged, and he stammered for a long time without saying anything.
After hesitating for a long time… finally, he gathered the courage to say:
"I have a certain ability to predict and deduce. I… I also saw great horror on you, Master."
After he finished speaking.
Cang Qingyu closed his eyes, not knowing if he was recalling the images from his prediction and deduction. His entire misty body… shuddered with fear.
After listening to Cang Qingyu's words.
Xuanqing fell silent for a moment.
He didn't expect it wasn't because Cang Qingyu was timid, but because the other party had the ability to predict and could foresee that he would be devoured.
No wonder he was so scared when he saw Xuanqing, and with just a little movement, he even offered up his True Spirit to acknowledge a master.
"So that's how it is, I've wronged you indeed." Xuanqing nodded and then asked in a faint voice,
"Also… what did you deduce and see the great horror on me?"
Upon hearing this.
Cang Qingyu didn't dare to conceal anything and honestly explained, "The moment I saw Master, I deduced my own end."
"First, I was sealed on the Moon by you, Master, and then not long after, a fusion incident occurred on the Water Blue Star. My… my authority was completely stripped away, and eventually, I was killed and devoured by Master."
"As for the great horror on you, Master…" Cang Qingyu's pupils contracted sharply, then shook his head, "I'm not quite sure, but it was really terrifying."
Listening to his words.
Xuanqing couldn't deny it.
Indeed.
That was what he intended at the beginning, sealing him on the Moon first to prevent him from messing around while he practiced.
Waiting until the Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Ways were all successfully opened and powerful enough to replace Heaven and Earth Will, he would then completely eliminate and devour him.
Suddenly.
Xuanqing remembered something and asked, "Now that you've joined my sect, can you predict your fate after acknowledging me?"
"Master, once I acknowledged you, I couldn't see anything clearly." Cang Qingyu's eyes were filled with bewilderment.
Hearing this..
Chapter 266: Chapter 248: Chaos in Qingping Temple!_2
Translator: 549690339
Xuanqing nodded slightly.
The fact that the other party couldn't see the future was normal.
This kind of thing with a 'predictive' attribute, not only involves divine power techniques, but also the natural talent of tomorrow…. once a close relationship is established with a power, naturally, their destiny could no longer be predicted.
Just like himself who swore allegiance to Taishang Laojun of Douluo Palace, he was basically off the radar for the big shots in the Three Realms.
Of course,
What Xuanqing didn't know was, even if he hadn't sworn allegiance to Taishang Laojun, none of the big shots of the Three Realms or even Taishang Laojun himself could predict anything about him.
Along the way,
Chatting with Cang Qingyu while flying made the journey less boring, where most of the time it was Xuanqing questioning, and Cang Qingyu responding earnestly.
About a quarter of an hour later,
Xuanqing was already above the Great Yan Kingdom.
Frankly,
He hated wasting time on meaningless travels the most, alas, his cultivation wasn't enough.
If he had the cultivation level of Zhen Yuan, that allowed him to tear through space for teleportation, he could get from the moon to the Water Blue Star and vice versa in a blink.
"Alright, we're almost at my Taoist temple!"
Xuanqing smiled lightly.
Then,
He turned to Cang Qingyu, who was wrapped in a duster, and said, "Qingyu, you only need to follow me loyally.
"Then., after I replace the rules of heaven and earth of the Water Blue Star, I can also consider letting you continue to be the Heavenly Path of the Water Blue Star."
Upon hearing this,
Cang Qingyu was overjoyed and hastily bowed in respect, loudly stating,"Master, rest assured, I will definitely be loyal."
After half an hour's journey,
He was certain that as long as he doesn't make a mistake, his master won't kill him.
Now that his Master had mentioned that… even if the Three Ways – Heaven, Earth, and Human… replace the authority of Heaven and Earth Will, he could still continue to hold the power of the rules.
"Hmm!
II
Xuanqing nodded slightly.
During conversation, he had already arrived above Qingping Mountain.
However,
The scene before him took him by surprise.
On the asphalt road leading to the Taoist temple, countless cars were lined up, moving at a snail's pace.
Wow… there was even a traffic jam.
Not only that,
Next to the asphalt road, there was a staircase for pedestrians, even though an asphalt road had been built, considering some people like to climb mountains, this path was also kept.
At the moment,
This path was crowded with numerous pedestrians, trudging up the mountain, among them, there were young men, women, middle-aged men, and women.
Such a bustling scene was even livelier than when he had held the temple inheritance ceremony.
"What's the situation?" Xuanqing was a bit puzzled.
The next moment,
Whoosh-
His figure vanished…
And when he reappeared, he was already in the Taoist temple with Cang Qingyu.
Hissing-
Compared to the outside scene,
The scene in the Taoist temple was even more explosive and chaotic. It didn't look like a Taoist temple at all. Instead, it was more like… the scene of a Demon Sect.
"Please accept me as a disciple, Taoist priest!"
"Daoist Priest, look at me. Am I a prodigy, suitable for cultivation?"
"I even donated a million good deeds cash, only asking the Daoist Priest to teach me."
"Damn it, don't push me."
"Ouch… who stepped on the heel of my foot."
Shoulder to shoulder, heel to heel… describing it as a crowd was an understatement. Sweat, breath, all kinds of chaotic energy gathered together.
Xuanqing looked around.
He even spotted several monks in the crowd.
Of course,
These monks were not wearing monk robes, even on their heads… they were wearing duckbill caps, obviously, they put some effort into it.
"Do these monks… want to cause trouble in Qingping Taoist Temple?"
Xuanqing wondered.
Right at that moment,
One of the monks with a cap finally made it to the entrance of Three Purities Palace and immediately kneeled on the ground, joining the queue of those who wanted to be disciples.
He clasped his hands together, shouted loudly, and was about to bow.
"I beseech the Daoist Priest to take me in…oh~"
His speech was cut short when he bowed, causing his cap to fall on the ground.
In an instant,
His shining bald head under the sun reflected a dazzling light.
Seeing such a scene,
The entire noisy courtyard… miraculously fell silent, everyone turned to look at the bald head kneeling on the ground, all stunned.
Of course… they were not surprised at his baldness, as there are many people in the world suffering from hair loss, which is not surprising.
However.
On that shiny bald head, there were nine clearly visible, neatly arranged small black dots.
Ring scars!
It's really the ring scars!
The monk kneeling on the ground was also taken aback for a moment.
However, those who are monks naturally have thick skin and excellent mental quality, so they continued to kowtow.
"I beg you to accept me, Daoist Priest. I am indeed a believer in Taoism…"
The crowd was astonished-
Everyone let out a sigh.
They all looked down on the monk on the ground with contempt. Still, since it's a society ruled by law, no one went forward to beat him up.
Of course.
No matter how chaotic the people were in the courtyard, from the moment they stepped into the Three Purities Palace..
The effects of serenity and calming the soul jade talismans calmed everyone down.
This moment.
After observing for a while.
Xuanqing finally figured out the cause and effect.
Qingping Temple turned out this way because the epidemic in the Great Yan Kingdom had been completely eradicated.
They did not know how it happened, but this time, the government of the Great Yan Kingdom did not control the words of the citizens.
They let them freely propagate various miracles of the Taoist religion.
With that.
People who wanted to watch the fun, desired to become apprentices and cultivate, received help in the aura of catastrophe, came to the Taoist temple to express their gratitude for burning incense… including self-media trying to shoot videos for traffic… and more!
Xuanqing frowned.
He thought about it.
He decided to call Elder Jingde, Elder Qianqing, and Yang Ying for a meeting and introduced Cang Qingyu to them.
"Qingyu, let me introduce someone to you later, he's a subordinate of me, and from now on you, guys, will be colleagues!"
With that said.
Xuanqing picked up Cang Qingyu and entered the inner courtyard.
Inside the bedroom in the inner courtyard.
With the soundproofing barrier's effect, the noisy sound outside disappeared completely.
Xuanqing sat in the armchair, then put Cang Qingyu on the table and took out his phone… ready to send a message to Elder Qianqing and the others.
However.
Just opened the phone.
A popup advertisement appeared.
Just as he was about to close the ad, he found that the hot news ad was about a Taoist saving people with jade talismans and scooping up meteorites.
Seeing this.
Xuanqing shook his head.
He didn't open the video, closed the ad, and sent a message to Elder Jingde and the others.
Moments later.
Three helicopters came to Qingping Mountain, which made the incense guests marvel at them. Rich people arc truly rich. They didn't know whether they came to become disciples or to burn incense and pray.
Of course, they never thought that the three giants of the current Taoist world were sitting in these three helicopters!
Elder Jingde, Elder Qianqing, and Yang Ying, used the invisibility technique before getting off the aircraft, and walked into the inner courtyard in a low profile.
Upon entering the room in the inner courtyard.
What they saw… besides the familiar figure of the palace lord, there was also… a white, cloud-like cotton candy on the table.
"Greetings, temple master!"
The three of them put together a Taoist greeting gift, raised it above their heads, and then curiously looked at the cotton candy on the table.
Hmm!
Xuanqing nodded slightly, and said: "There are two things I called you here for today!"
With that said
He pointed to Cang Qingyu on the table.
"First… I'll introduce you, this is Cang Qingyu, the embodiment of the Will of
The Heaven and Earth of The Water Blue Star."
At the end.
Xuanqing raised an eyebrow, adding, "Yes… that is, what people often mention, the Heavenly Lord… or something."
The Will of Heaven and Earth?
The Heavenly Lord.. The Old Lord?
The three of them were taken aback, looked down at the cotton-candy-like thing on the table, and recalled what the temple master had said.
Hiss-
They gasped in unison, and when they looked at Cang Qingyu again, their eyes were filled with shock..

"Qingyu, greet everyone!" Xuanqing commanded.
Cang Qingyu nodded.
He twisted his cotton-candy-like body and transformed it into two strands of cloud mist, then, just like a human, made a hand gesture.
"Greetings, fellow Daoists. My name is Cang Qingyu!"
Everyone snapped out of their trance and hastily returned the gesture.
"Greeted… Greeted… urn…"
For a moment.
They didn't know how to address Cang Qingyu. They couldn't just directly call him 'Heavenly Lord' or 'Cangtian', could they?
But to directly call him by his name seemed disrespectful, since, according to the palace lord, he was the embodiment of the rules of the Water Blue Star and a figure at the level of the Heavenly Lord.
Off to the side.
Xuanqing noticed the embarrassment of the three and quickly spoke up: "Although Qingyu is the embodiment of the Heaven and Earth Will of the Water Blue Star, he gained his spiritual intelligence not long ago."
"In the cultivation world, there is a saying…'No spirit, no age.' You can just call him Qingyu."
The so-called "No spirit, no age" means that before a being gains spiritual intelligence, their age is not counted.
For example, Huai Qingyun's actual age should be just under two years old.
Or, for the Monkey King of the Game World, his actual age would only be counted after he jumped out of the stone.
Upon hearing this statement.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"My name is Qianqing, and I greet Daoist brother Qingyu."
"My name is Jingde, and I greet Daoist brother Qingyu."
"My… My name is Yang Ying, and I greet Daoist brother Qingyu."
One by one, they paid their respects and introduced themselves.
It's worth mentioning that.
Because Cang Qingyu started with a pretentious and archaic language, the three of them subconsciously spoke likewise.
And so.
The few of them got acquainted.
"Qingyu, I have a child disciple named Huai Qingyun who is busy outside and cannot come. I'll introduce you to him when he has time!"
Xuanqing addressed the small white mist ball on the table.
When he returned to the Taoist temple, he contacted Huai Qingyun through the Immortal Official Document, but Huai Qingyun was busy installing a sub-array plate in the newly built Taoist temple and couldn't spare any time.
Huai Qingyun?
Cang Qingyu was momentarily surprised: his name and Huai Qingyun's were somewhat similar, both having the character "Qing" in the middle.
"All right, now that Cang Qingyu and Elder Jingde have met each other, please communicate more and work together in unity."
"Yes, Palace Lord!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Now.
The first matter had been dealt with, and it was time to talk about the second matter.
Xuanqing's gaze turned to Elder Qianqing and others, and he said, "In addition to introducing you to each other this time, the matter at hand is to address the chaos in our Taoist temple."
Upon hearing that.
Elder Jingde's face showed a bitter smile, and he stepped forward to say, "Since the disaster aura incident, our Daoist order has become popular on the Internet."
"For some reason, the Internet management department of Yan Country has now relaxed its speech control. My subordinates even went to inquire about the reason, and you know what they said?"
"Elder Jingde, don't keep us guessing." Xuanqing chuckled and shook his head.
"Ah… yes, Palace Lord!"
Elder Jingde laughed awkwardly, then quickly explained: "Now, the relevant departments have implemented a Three No's policy for our Daoist order."
"They are… no initiative, no refusal, no responsibility!"
"Not only is Qingping Temple affected, but the seven thousand Taoist temples nationwide are also experiencing this."
Upon hearing this.
Xuanqing couldn't help but laugh.
On the side.
Yang Ying also couldn't help but grin, her face full of astonishment, "Elder Jingde, why does this sound so familiar?"
"Haha, of course it's familiar. When I was studying at the Daoist Academy, many scoundrels held the Three No's as gospel!"
"I just didn't expect our Daoist order to have such treatment now." Xuanqing's face was full of amusement as he joked.
Well…
Yang Ying touched her nose, speechless.
"All right, let's get down to business!"
Seeing that the topic had unknowingly gotten sidetracked, Xuanqing immediately waved his hand.
"Yes!
II
Everyone instantly straightened up and took on a listening stance.
Xuanqing nodded slightly, then said, "The reason why I started the path of cultivation, you all should be very clear."
"We know, Palace Lord, you wanted to open up the paths of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity!" Elder Qianqing nodded and replied.
"That's right!"
Xuanqing looked into the distance, his eyes unfathomably deep. "The path of cultivation is for opening up the Human Path."
"However, I hope to open up the Human Path more stably, avoiding as much impact on the lives of ordinary people in the Great Yan Kingdom as possible."
To be honest.
Although cultivation is magical, to ordinary people, it may not be as practical as technological development.
After all.
The former focuses on gathering power within oneself, while the latter benefits the whole of humanity, with different goals for each.
"These people are causing chaos simply because they want to obtain the method of cultivation."
"In that case, why not just release the Shenxiao Visualization Technique to the public so that everyone can practice."
"Although they can't cultivate mana without Heaven and Earth spiritual energy, it should still be possible to strengthen their bodies and rid themselves of sub-health."
Xuanqing's fingertips tapped the table as he calmly instructed.
Of course.
Cultivating the Shenxiao Visualization Technique requires not just Heaven and Earth spiritual energy but also steadfast faith.
Although he intends to open up a new Human Path using the cultivation method, he doesn't want to create chaos or even change the peaceful state of the Water Blue Star.
Moreover, he doesn't want to give benefits to strangers he doesn't know for no reason.
That's why he created the Shenxiao Visualization Technique, a cultivation
method that rewards more devout faith with faster cultivation progress..

"Furthermore, regarding the matter of the cultivation of incense guests, proceed as discreetly as possible. I don't want to see any information about this on the Internet!"
As he said, he didn't want to break the original pattern by initiating the Human Path.
Just imagine.
If everyone knew that they could cultivate immortality by going to a Taoist temple… Who would still have the heart to work, and the heart to study?
For Xuanqing, besides the login device, the biggest advantage… was having resources from both worlds.
And the differences in the development directions of the two worlds can bring him more help.
If the real world eventually turned into a fantasy cultivation world, it would be completely meaningless for Xuanqing.
After all.
Among the three thousand small worlds in the game world, there are countless fantasy cultivation worlds, magic worlds, and so on. However, there isn't a single world that has developed technology.
From this, we can also see that it is an amazing feat for mankind on Water Blue Star to develop technology without the foundation of spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
After listening to the palace lord's words carefully.
"We will follow the palace lord's orders carefully!" Everyone bowed in unison.
Hmm!
"Go ahead!" Xuanqing nodded slightly and then turned to the white mist on the table, saying:
"Cang Qingyu, what you have to do from now on is to use the authority of the Heaven and Earth Will to assist the Taoist development as much as possible, understand?"
"Yes, Master!" Cang Qingyu hurriedly nodded in agreement.
As the followers left, the room once again returned to its previous tranquility.
In the room.
"The matters on Water Blue Star have been settled, it's time to enter the game world and continue practicing Five Qi Chaoyuan!"
Xuanqing sat cross-legged.
For him, as long as the general direction of these cultivation issues does not go wrong, as for the specifics on how to execute them in detail, it is up to his followers.
This… is also the meaning of creating a power!
With a thought in mind.
"Enter the game!"
Game world.
Inside the Taoist Academy on the Black Wind Mountain.
A young Taoist priest in a Taoist robe with sharp energy all over his body was sitting on the cushion holding a duster.
Suddenly.
The young Taoist opened his eyes.
II
Huh… I didn't expect the power of the Black Wind Country to have become so strong in such a short time!"
Xuanqing, who had just logged into the game a moment ago, found that the power of the Black Wind Country's national destiny was much more potent than before, at least several times stronger.
Luck Jade Seal!
Xuanqing took out the Luck Jade Seal.
Previously on Water Blue Star, when he was preparing to use the Luck Jade Seal to seal Cang Qingyu, he felt something was off, but he didn't examine it very closely at the time.
"A crescent pattern?
Xuanqing mused for a moment.
The Luck Jade Seal had several star-shaped clusters on it before, but now it had transformed into a crescent.
After some thought.
He tapped the Immortal Official Document hanging at his waist and sent a message to Gentleman Bai She, telling him to come to Black Wind Mountain.
Moments later.
"Subordinate greets Sir!"
Gentleman Bai She arrived at the Taoist temple, holding a hand seal high above his head, and then knelt down on one knee, respectfully performing a salutation.
Xuanqing gently responded, his eyes falling on Gentleman Bai She.
He saw him… dressed in a black robe adorned with nine-clawed Luck Golden
Dragons, emitting rich dragon prestige, and an even more intense aura of the Human Path.
It seemed.
The previous metamorphosis of the White Dragon bloodline brought Gentleman Bai She significant assistance.
"Qingxu, it has been a while since poor Dao asked about the matters of the Black Wind Country, how has it developed now?"
Xuanqing casually asked.
"To report to Sir!"
Gentleman Bai She cupped his hands and said:
"A year ago, the Black Wind Country completely… controlled the economy of Wusi Tibetan and Westside Hami, and the resulting trade deficit accounted for at least 60% of the economy of both countries."
"Half a year ago, Westside Hami and Wusi Tibetan submitted documents for territorial integration."
"A few days ago, the Black Wind Country officially annexed the two countries and conducted a renaming ceremony. From then on, Black Wind Country… was renamed the Black Wind Dynasty!"
Gentleman Bai She didn't talk about the details but briefly explained the general development of the Black Wind Country during this time.
After listening.
Xuanqing was somewhat surprised.
It means.
The Kingdom of Wusi Tibetan and Western Hami Country no longer existed; both were merged into the Black Wind Country and were even promoted to a dynasty?
It is worth mentioning that.
In the Game World, a country's suffix is not just as simple as a name.
City, Kingdom, Dynasty, Empire… Different suffixes represent the strength of a country's power.
For example… At the beginning, Black Wind City wanted to become the Black Wind Country, almost sucking the blood of Western Hami Country and Wusi Tibetan Country.
Finally, with a qualified population, Luck, and a large enough Luck power, it successfully established the country!
Or, the Tang Dynasty, which is the center of human luck, is known as… the Tang Empire, also known as the Heavenly Dynasty, and this is the reason.
Of course… these are just side stories.
This moment.
Xuanqing looked at Gentleman Bai She with appreciation and then said:
"You did very well and didn't let me down. Reward!"
As he spoke.
With a thought in his mind.
"Purchase an Ancestral Dragon Crystal."
[Ding… -1 million ingots!]
Accompanied by the deduction of ingots, a pearl exuding a strong Dragon Clan blood appeared out of thin air.
"This Ancestral Dragon Crystal is a reward for you!"
Seeing this.
"Thank you, sir, for your kindness!" Gentleman Bai She was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt on the ground, respectfully kowtowing three times.
"Hmm!
II
Xuanqing nodded slightly, "Keep up the good work. The Ancestral Dragon
Crystal is nothing. After I finish this busy period…"
"I will fulfill my promise and use the power of Black Wind Country's Luck to condense a Destiny Golden Dragon body for you!"
Gentleman Bai She's heart trembled.
He originally thought that his master had forgotten, but he didn't expect that Sir had always remembered this matter.
"Thank… thank you, sir!"
He saw the goodness of his master and kept it in his heart. Only by working harder to complete the tasks assigned by his master can he repay his great kindness!
"By the way, how has Black Bear been doing lately?" Xuanqing asked casually.
"Big Brother Black Bear is all well. He is currently researching how to raise honey and plans to find a piece of land to raise bees," Gentleman Bai She explained.
Hearing this.
Xuanqing's mouth curled up with a smile, and he nodded satisfactorily.
Although he doesn't need Black Bear Essence to do anything now, he didn't forget the care that Black Bear Essence had given him before he stepped on the path.
With this thought in mind.
Swoosh-
He took out two Ginseng Fruits from the Game Backpack.
"Go ahead and take these two Ginseng Fruits to Black Bear Essence!"
Also, tell Black Bear Essence to practice well. If they need any resources, just say it, and 1'11 try my best to get it for them!"
II
Xuanqing handed the Ginseng Fruits over.
Hearing this.
Gentleman Bai She took the Ginseng Fruits, "I will urge Big Brother Black Bear to practice hard when I go back!"
II
I shall take my leave now!"
Watching Gentleman Bai She leave.
Then.
Xuanqing sat cross-legged, contemplating his subsequent cultivation path.
He started by condensing the Five Qi Chaoyuan with Gold Qi, and the next Five Elements Qi… will be the Water Qi Rules, first drawing Water Qi into his body, and then condensing the Water Qi Chaoyuan!
"The gold I used for refining the Gold Qi is the so-called king of ten thousand gold, blessed with the Qi of humanity."
"The subsequent practice of Water Qi must also be related to 'water', and it cannot be ordinary water!"
After pondering for a moment!
Weak Water!
These two words emerged in his mind.
Then.
A flash of inspiration came to Xuanqing's mind, and he thought of a place, which was very suitable for cultivating Water Qi.
In this world, there is an ancient poem that goes:
Eight hundred realms of flowing sand, three thousand weak waters deep.
Goose feathers don't float, immortals sink to the bottom for sure!
This place is the Liusha River, which is the place of exile of General Juanlian, who was the previous incarnation of Monk Sha in the Journey to the West group.
On the surface.
It was because General Juanlian accidentally broke the Luminous Glass and was demoted to the mortal world by the Jade Emperor.
But in fact, such a lame excuse is probably not even believed by dogs.
Not to mention that General Juanlian was immortal, and even had such a lack of control, he could still make mistakes, which was a strange matter.
Furthermore.
Even if they say he made a mistake, could the Luminous Glass, which can be used as a decoration in the Heavenly Court, be so easily broken?
Of course.
No matter what tricks are involved, they have nothing to do with Daoist Xuanqing.
"So… the cultivation of the Five Elements Water Qi will be chosen in the Liusha River."
But… before that, the matter of granting the Immortal Official Document cannot be delayed any longer.. Firstly, I will go to Heavenly Court and be conferred as a Secondary Third-Rank Taoist Immortal Official!"

Southern Heavenly Gate.
Mists and clouds swirled around.
A young Taoist priest holding a feather duster, looking ethereal, flew upwards. It was none other than Xuanqing, rushing to receive his conferment.
This scene…
Zeng Zhang Tianwang, a deity with a red face and sharp teeth, instinctively wanted to berate the newcomer.
But after seeing the face of the newcomer, he shrank back and quickly put on a smile, bowing respectfully.
"I have seen the superior immortal!"
"Hmm!"
Xuanqing briefly glanced at him, then stepped into the Southern Heavenly Gate.
To him now, Zeng Zhang Tianwang, the gatekeeper, was nothing but a lackey, and one from Shimen at that, a faction he didn't get along with. He naturally wouldn't care about the gatekeeper's opinions.
Once inside the Heavenly Court.
Xuanqing headed for the Household Registry and Destiny Bureau.
It was a stroke of luck that the immortal official in charge of the Fate Palace was an old acquaintance.
He was the Registration Immortal Official who had descended to the human world to confer Xuanqing when he was refining his Chaos Virtue Holy Body.
"So it is Immortal Xuanqing. I wonder what brings you here, is there anything this humble official can assist you with?"
Seeing that it was Xuanqing, the Registration Immortal Official hurriedly stood up, greeting warmly.
Now.
Everyone in the Heavenly Court knew of Xuanqing— the clever disciple of the Old Lord, the junior of Zhen Yuan, a friend of Taibai, with great potential to become the fourth pioneer of the Dao Court for the human race in the future.
Any of these titles alone would be astonishing, let alone all of them combined. His achievements were simply outstanding.
"Immeasurable Longevity and Fortune!"
Xuanqing made a Taoist salutation as a greeting gift.
"I sensed a calling in my heart, that I am to be promoted to a Secondary
Third-rank Taoist Immortal Official. I have ascended to heaven this time solely for the ceremony of conferment!"
???
• •
The Registration Immortal Official stammered.
"You..you mean promotion? Conferment?"
"Indeed!" Xuanqing nodded slightly.
"Hiss-"
Having received confirmation, the Registration Immortal Official sucked in a breath of cold air, contributing to the warming of heaven.
Hadn't Xuanqing just recently been promoted?
What's more important.
Last time he attended the Ascension Banquet, and he was promoted again there.
How much time has passed since then?
He's now promoted again to a Secondary Third-Rank Immortal Official.
This…this…this…this…this…
"Huh-"
The Registration Immortal Official took a deep breath, barely suppressing his surprise. He cupped his hands and said:
"My apologies. I was so shocked that I acted improperly in front of you."
Upon hearing this.
Xuanqing flashed a smile, waving his hand: "Never mind that. May I trouble you to check when my conferment can be held?"
"Sure, sure! Just give me a minute!"
The Registration Immortal Official nodded repeatedly, then began to check through the documents on his desk for the next court meeting at Lingxiao Bao Hall.
A moment later.
"What a coincidence, there's a court meeting at Lingxiao Bao Hall tomorrow. I will register you. Tomorrow at the court meeting, the Jade Emperor will confer you!" the Registration Immortal Official exclaimed, smacking himself on the forehead.
"Hehe!"
Xuanqing chuckled.
This was no coincidence. He had already calculated the timing in the Real World and chose to ascend to heaven just before the court meeting.
Of course, these words couldn't be said out loud. Otherwise, he would be flaunting his skills in calculation.
Afterwards.
Xuanqing cupped his hand and said: "I appreciate your help. I have a lot of things to do in my ascension this time, so I won't delay further."
"Farewell!"
"Take care, superior immortal. Feel free to visit the Fate Palace whenever you're free. The boss often talks about you!" The Registration Immortal Official waved his hand, watching Xuanqing leave.
There was still plenty of time.
There was still half a day left before the court meeting in the morning of the next day.
After leaving the Fate Palace, Xuanqing planned to pay a visit to the Star Lord Taibai.
On his journey, the old senior Taibai had provided him with much help. They had developed a very good relationship.
What's more.
After the conferment, he still had to visit the Douluo Palace to pay respects to the Ancestor Master. Given the rare opportunity to visit the Heavenly Court, he naturally had to do the necessary courtesies.
As Xuanqing was visiting friends in heaven and waiting for his conferment.
In the Real World-
After Elder Jingde and others left Qingping Temple and returned to the Heavenly Master Mansion, they immediately held an emergency meeting.
At the meeting, he communicated the palace lord's ideas to the members of Law Enforcement Division.
Additionally.
Remembering the palace lord's request to publish the Shenxiao Visualization, he called in a professional video production team immediately, led by Yang Ying.
Soon…
The Taoist official website had a new video.
In the video, the practice requirements for Shenxiao Visualization were clearly explained. It also mentioned that if one discovered they had cultivation talent and had burned incense at Taoist temples a hundred times, they could become an Inner House Disciple.
The so-called Inner House Disciple referred to those who were closer to the Taoists than ordinary incense guests and who had sincere faith.
As soon as the video went live.
Instantly, it caused a huge stir on the internet.
Just in one day, the video had gained over a hundred million views and this number was growing rapidly.
Just as Xuanqing had predicted, the issue of cultivation was hotly debated on the internet and seemed to have caused quite a chaos.
However, in reality…
The instructional video uploaded by the Taoist official website deterred many netizens who were planning to visit the Taoist temples, causing them to abandon their plans..

Translator: 549690339
For them, going to the Taoist temple was not really about burning incense and praying sincerely, but rather to join in the fun and satisfy their curiosity about "cultivation."
Meanwhile.
Elder Qianqing was also busy.
The Daoist Academy he was in charge of was now welcoming its 13th graduation season for Daoist students.
Compared to the past.
After the meteorite incident and the recent disaster aura event, the Daoist community in Yan Country has become increasingly influential.
Naturally.
Most of the media in Great Yan Kingdom, even official television stations, shifted their attention to this 13th Lu Card Ceremony, sending journalists to the academy to observe.
Due to the overwhelming number of media journalists coming to watch and interview.
This graduation Lu Card Ceremony.
Just like the previous Heavenly Master Inheritance Ceremony, a special area was set up in the academy for media journalists to film and interview.
At this moment.
The Lu Card Ceremony Hall.
Elder Qianqing stood on the high platform.
More than two thousand Daoist students who had completed the Heart-probing Road and Refining Heart Tower were sitting neatly and upright on chairs below the stage.
For them, once they receive the Lu card today, it means that they will take up positions in Taoist temples and become the masters of the temples, which is undoubtedly exciting.
"Immeasurable Longevity and Fortune!"
Elder Qianqing held the Yin-Yang Finger Gesture and recited a Daoist Name as an opening remark.
Below the stage.
Click- Click
Click
In an area full of journalists, countless reporters were frantically pressing the shutter of their cameras. The dazzling flashlights kept flashing, recording this scene.
"First of all, welcome to our media friends who have come to witness the 13th Daoist Lu Card Ceremony!"
Elder Qianqing looked around for a week without rushing and spoke slowly.
"From today on, you will be the masters of the temples, and everything you say and do will represent…"
Although the speech was very cliche and almost no different from the previous twelve Lu Card Ceremonies.
However, the Soon-to-be temple masters sitting below intently and respectfully listened to Elder Qianqing's speech on the stage.
The reason for having such a quality.
Naturally, it is because every graduate has to go through the "Heart-probing Road" and "Refining Heart Tower" to temper their minds and hearts.
More importantly.
The benefits of joining the Daoist community today can be considered as second to none. In fact, nobody dares to claim to be the first on the entire Water Blue Star.
As long as they successfully pass the academy's tests on Heart-probing Road and Refining Heart Tower, they can receive the Lu Card and become temple masters upon graduation.
Now the temple masters are no longer like they used to be receiving only a few hundred a month but instead, their monthly fee at the master level is as much as 50,000.
Besides the salary level.
There is also an irresistible benefit that nobody can resist, which is…the key to stepping into the door of cultivation.
This is not just about the "Shenxiao Visualization Technique", but also various talisman techniques, simple Five Elements techniques, and even the "Treading the Clouds" lightweight skill, which are open to all temple masters!
Shifting focus to the high platform.
After a series of traditional ceremonies.
Finally.
It's time for the most important part of the ceremony, the granting of the Immortal Official Document, various magic tools, and two Taoist Robes.
More than two thousand young Taoists sitting below the stage lined up according to their numbers and orderly walked to the stage.
The first young Taoist walked up, held up the finger gesture over his head, and bowed deeply.
"May you bring good fortune to everyone after taking up the position of temple master!" Elder Qianqing handed over the items on the tray to the young Taoist in front of him.
"Thank you, Dean!"
Upon receiving the tray, the young Taoist's eyes were immediately attracted to the Taoist robe and a brown cloth bag on it.
He noticed that there was a wave of spiritual power on the robe, which turned out to be a spiritual object.
As for the brown bag, all the students in their entire Daoist academy recognized it.
Because not long ago, they saw the elder temple masters using it while they were assisting various places to solve the disaster aura.
It can be used to hold objects… the Sumeru Bag!!!
They never expected that this Lu Card Ceremony would also distribute magic tools, robes, and such valuable items like the Sumeru Bag.
Unable to help himself, he turned his head to look at the other trays.
"Hiss-"
As expected.
In each tray, Lu cards and objects were ordinary items, but the robes were exuding a spiritual qi, all of them are spiritual magic tools.
Seeing this!
Elder Qianqing smiled and stroked his beard, thinking to himself in his heart that these younger generations were indeed born in a good era.
These clothes, of course, were all the novice sets exchanged by Xuanqing from the Store, with tens of thousands of sets exchanged at once.
After all.
Since they had embarked on the path of cultivation, magic tools, robes, and Sumeru Bags were necessities that couldn't be lacking.
Due to the large number of people.
The entire Lu card granting ceremony continued until evening, and only then were all the graduates given their Lu cards.
After the granting of the Lu cards was over.
The journalists did not leave; on the contrary, they felt a surge of energy.
Because.
According to the original plan, once the ceremony was over, the Daoist Academy would hold a press conference.
For these reporters, this was the real main event.
On the high platform.
Elder Qianqing looked at the journalists below.
"Thank you all for your patience, now… you can start asking questions!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Immediately.
A female reporter with a ponytail sitting in the front row raised her hand high.
"Please go ahead, layman!"
"Daoist priest, what do you think of the popular "Shenxiao Visualization Technique" on the Internet?"
Upon hearing this.
Elder Qianqing stroked his beard and said leisurely, "The Shenxiao Visualization Technique is a very good cultivation technique for maintaining one's health, and it is also one of the compulsory courses in the Daoist Academy."
"Daoist priest, many people now want to quit their jobs and even stop going to school just to join the Taoist path of cultivating. What is your opinion on this issue?"
Another reporter asked a sharp question.
Hearing this.
Elder Qianqing pondered for a moment, then opened his mouth and said, "First of all, I want to say that there is no such thing as cultivating immortality."
"Including the Shenxiao Visualization Method, you can also consider it as a form of advanced fitness."
"Cultivation is about cultivating one's mind and nurturing one's spirit. It can be a hobby, but never a main task. Everyone should focus on learning technology, and only technology is the primary productive force."
Next.
After answering questions for more than an hour, the sky was already completely dark.
Elder Qianqing massaged his temples, feeling that dealing with these reporters was really exhausting.
"Alright, today's interview is over. Follow-up information on the Daoist Academy will be posted on the official website. If you arc interested, please keep an eye on it!"
As he said this.
"Immeasurable Longevity and Fortune." Elder Qianqing made a yin-yang fish gesture, saluted the crowd, and left the scene.
The Lu card granting ceremony of the Daoist Academy came to an end.
A group of journalists, with their documents in hand, went back to work overtime on their submissions, publishing the news afterward.
While Elder Jingde's Heavenly Master Mansion and Elder Qianqing's Daoist Academy were bustling and lively.
Yang Ying was not slacking either.
Across the entire land of Yan Country, tens of thousands of Taoist temples sprang up and were already nearing completion.
More than three thousand of them were even rushing to finish their renovations and preparing to receive the graduates of the Daoist Academy.
In today's highly developed industrial technology era, as long as one is willing to spend a lot of money, they can experience what is called the speed of a construction maniac.
Due to the large number of temples, there was no need for a special opening ceremony. The more than three thousand Taoist temples quietly opened on the land of Yan Country.
In this way.
The chaotic situation of Taoist temples offering cultivation techniques online and opening temples offline for diversion was perfectly resolved.
And, because of the addition of so many temples at once, the daily number of incense guests increased several times over.
Huai Qingyun was exhausted from installing the sub-array plates one after another without a break.
The power of Incense belief… multiplied, and it was not long before the next promotion of the Immortal Officers would take place.
As the real world developed rapidly.
In the Game World!
Heavenly Court.
Outside the Lingxiao Bao Hall.
Xuanqing stood with his hands behind his back, waiting for the Jade Emperor's summon to receive the promotion and title of Secondary Third-Rank Immortal Official!
However.
What he didn't know was that this time, the promotion of the Secondary Third-Rank Immortal Official hadn't happened yet, but due to the rapid development of the real world, the next Immortal Official's promotion was not far off!

Chapter 271: Chapter 251: Fulfilling the Promise, Shocking the Three Realms!
Translator: 549690339
About half an hour later.
A loud summoning voice echoed throughout the Heavenly Court.
"Xuanqing, Left Envoy Immortal and Five Thunder Ambassador, and Leading Thunderbolt Department Mansion Affairs… Ascend to the audience!"
Xuanqing's spirit lifted, he quickly stood up, straightened his robes, and walked into the Lingxiao Bao Hall.
• •
Lingxiao Bao Hall.
The Jade Emperor sat on the throne.
Civil and Military Ministers stood on both sides, but the three Human Race Heavenly Masters who had established their Taoist temples were nowhere to be seen.
He opened his palm and took out the seal symbolizing the control of the Three Realms, pressing it to the prepared imperial decree on the table..
Accompanied by the sound of the seal touching the document.
"Due to blessing the people, with over 500 million incense offerings, he is promoted to: Taiji True One Immortal Viceroy, Vice-Chamberlain of the Shenxiao Jade Palace in charge of North and South Departments Affairs, secondary third-rank!"
Accompanied by strange phenomena in heaven and earth.
A torrential Luck descended from the sky… and landed on Xuanqing.
Destiny was increasing like crazy!
"Huff-"
Xuanqing took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and indulged in the intoxicating surge of increasing destiny and luck.
It had to be said.
After the fourth rank, the increase in destiny brought about by each rank promotion was not added but multiplied.
At this moment.
On both sides of the main hall.
The hearts of all the gods were filled with emotion, and they couldn't help but communicate with their colleagues through transmissions.
"Incredible! It's been just a few days, and he's already moved up to secondary third-rank!"
"Indeed, although Daoist Immortal Officers are promoted quickly, this Daoist Xuanqing is going too fast."
"Tsk tsk- Brother Dao, look over there, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li's face is black."
"Hahaha, everyone knows that Daoist Xuanqing and Shimon don't get along. The faster Xuanqing is promoted, the more uncomfortable they will be."
For Xuanqing.
From the very beginning of arriving in this world to the current promotion to the secondary third-rank Immortal Official, it has been over twenty years according to the mortal time of the Game World.
But to the gods on both sides of the main hall, it was only a short twenty or so days. They found that Xuanqing had risen from a small ninth-rank to a secondary third-rank.
Even if the time ratio was different between one day in heaven and one year on earth, it was still a terrifying event for all the gods.
Moments later.
Hum hum-
The last column of luck light descended.
Astonishing divine majesty emerged from Xuanqing's body, permeating the entire main hall.
Xuanqing opened his eyes.
At this moment, he had a feeling that he was closer to the Origin Power of this world.
As long as he circulated his own destiny and luck, he could clearly perceive the omnipresent power of rules around him.
Even if he exerted all his strength, he could mobilize a certain amount of rules power to suppress his enemies.
Of course.
The premise was that the target to be suppressed had a lower destiny than him. In simple terms, this was about who held higher positions.
The so-called saying 'an official at one rank higher oppresses people'… was not just a proverb in this world, it was the fact that depending on the rank of the Immortal Official, one could mobilize the rules of heaven and earth to suppress their enemies!
"Since I can do this at the secondary third-rank, then Emperor Haotian, who controls the Three Realms and is the highest administrator of this world, wouldn't it be…"
Xuanqing thought to himself in secret, feeling somewhat shocked in his heart.
Of course.
Now that the conferment was over, it was not the time to think about these things. According to etiquette, it was time to thank the Jade Emperor for his conferment.
With this thought in mind.
"Huff-"
Xuanqing took a deep breath and immediately knelt on one knee, with both hands clasping the Yin-Yang Finger Gesture.
"Your servant… Xuanqing, thank you for the Jade Emperor's conferment…"
Before he finished speaking.
An unexpected event happened!
A prompt sounded in his mind.
"Beep… Congratulations, player has accumulated one billion incense offerings, and Daoist Immortal Officer is promoted to the standard third-rank!"
???
9 9 9
Hearing the prompt in his mind.
Xuanqing's words of gratitude were halted, and he paused.
At this moment.
The gods in the main hall couldn't help but feel strange, wondering why the words of thanks stopped halfway…?
"Huh?"
It was at this moment.
Hum hum-
Strange phenomena in heaven and earth appeared.
On top of the Lingxiao Bao Hall, there seemed to be the illusory shadows of a dragon and phoenix passing by, celestial music playing, and white fog billowing.
An even more majestic divine power echoed above the main hall, and finally…locked onto Xuanqing, who was kneeling on one knee.
After these phenomena appeared.
In an instant.
The gods of the main hall reacted and realized what was happening.
"This this this this…"
"Heavens, if I am not mistaken, that Daoist Xuanqing… Is he going to be promoted again?"
"Hiss- It's truly terrifying."
999
The gods' eyes widened in horror.
Even though they knew that Daoist Xuanqing was extraordinary, the fact that he could continue to be promoted during the conferment in the Lingxiao Bao Hall-
Such a situation, even counting from the establishment of the Heavenly Court… had never happened before.
On the high platform.
For some reason.
The Jade Emperor looked up at the sky, a look of surprise on his face.
After a slight hesitation.
He looked at Xuanqing, who was kneeling in the middle of the hall, and immediately said softly:
"Xuanqing, my beloved minister, since you have gained the approval of heaven and earth, I shall continue to confer upon you!"
As the words fell.
The seal in his hand fell once more.
"Due to blessing the people, with over 1 billion incense offerings, he is promoted to: Taichi True One Immortal Viceroy, Palace Master of Shenzhao Yushu in charge of North and South Departments Affairs, standard third-rank!"
Boom-
Chapter 272: Chapter 251: Fulfilling the Promise, Shocking the Three Realms! _2
Translator: 549690339
Compared to before, even more immense fortune and providence descended.
A moment later.
The heavenly phenomenon disappeared, and the Daoist Immortal Officer's promotion was complete.
• • •
The court meeting was over.
In the passage leading away from the Lingxiao Bao Hall.
All the immortals who had a good relationship with Xuanqing or had attended his Ascension Banquet before, congratulated him with their fists held in front of them.
"Congratulations, Immortal Minister Xuanqing, your promotion to the standard third rank is truly unexpected and admirable."
"Haha, congratulations, congratulations, congratulations to Daoist Friend Xuanqing for his successive promotions."
"Immortal Xuanqing, when will you hold the Ascension Banquet?"
On one side, Star Lord Taibai also joined in cheerfully, saying, "Daoist Friend Xuanqing, if you want to hold the Ascension Banquet, you must be sure to have it in my Star Lord Mansion."
Hearing this,
Xuanqing laughed and waved his hand.
"Fellow Daoist friends, I am a Daoist Immortal Official. Although my rank has been promoted quickly, I have no real power, and I cannot compare with you!"
"As for the… Ascension Banquet matter… Actually, I have some business in the Lower Realm that I need to attend to, so I am not planning to hold it since one day in heaven is equivalent to one year on earth!"
With that,
Everyone nodded in understanding.
Indeed.
Daoist Immortal Officials, being officials of the human world, were more occupied with worldly affairs than the immortals in the Heavenly Court who had nothing to do.
As such,
After exchanging some pleasantries with the various gods, Xuanqing and the others dispersed separately.
It is worth mentioning that,
Xuanqing didn't leave the Heavenly Court immediately. Instead, he went to Douluo Palace to visit his two senior brothers, Jin Ling and Yin Ling, and also paid his respects to Ancestor Master with a pile of Ginseng Fruits.
There's a saying… offer incense diligently in ordinary days, and the gods will be more willing to help when you are in need. This is exactly what it means, not having regular contact and seeking help only when in need, can make things difficult-
Black Wind Nation's Imperial City.
In the Imperial Study Room.
In front of a writing desk,
Gentleman Bai She held a document in his hand, furrowing his brows slightly.
The reason for his embarrassment was that serious economic corruption cases had arisen in Westside Hami and Wusi.
Now,
It had been two and a half years since the two places had become part of Black Wind Country. As they experienced rapid economic development, many undesirable phenomena began to emerge.
This economic corruption case was just one of many such phenomena.
At this moment,
"Qingxu, come quickly to Black Wind Mountain!"
A voice filled with divine power echoed in his ear.
My master?
As if understanding something,
Gentleman Bai She's spirit lifted and he hastily put down the document in his hand.
With a gesture,
Whoosh-
Lucky clouds floated under Gentleman Bai She's feet, transforming into a stream of light, rushing towards Black Wind Mountain at high speed.
In the Taoist temple on Black Wind Mountain,
"I pay my respects to Master!"
With his head bowed, Gentleman Bai She felt his heart beating uncontrollably and did not even dare to look at his master from the corner of his eye.
For some reason,
He now felt an overwhelming sense of the world's rules and regulations when facing his master, a feeling of deep terror.
Seeing this,
Xuanqing only then remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to restrain the divine power on his body.
His divine power had become customary for the fourth-rank and higher immortal officials of the Heavenly Court, but to Gentleman Bai She, it was just like a mortal encountering a god, very oppressive, which was why such a situation had occurred.
"I called you here to fulfill the promise I made to you!" Xuanqing said indifferently.
At his words,
"Whoosh-"
Gentleman Bai She gasped and immediately knelt on the ground, respectfully replying, "I will follow Master's arrangement!"
"Hmm!"
Xuanqing nodded slightly and then commanded, "To undergo this metamorphosis into a Destiny Golden Dragon body, you will need a long period of continuous cultivation. Do you have someone who can take care of Black Wind Nation affairs during that time?"
"Reporting to Master, I have already discussed this with Junior Sister Qingwan, and she will take over the affairs of Black Wind Nation!" Gentleman Bai She said.
Qingwan?
Xuanqing was somewhat surprised.
He thought back to the chubby, curious, and foolish girl from long ago, who had become adept at handling political affairs.
To be honest,
Ever since Qingwan had grown up, perhaps due to adolescent girls having more thoughts and concerns, she had become more and more distant from him.
With these thoughts in mind, Xuanqing's memories of when he first arrived in this world and had just taken in the foolish girl resurfaced.
The emaciated figure in the slums appeared as if only a short while ago, still vivid in his memory.
Later on,
There were memories of his cave mansion at the junction of Black Wind Mountain and Azure Dragon Mountain.
The most memorable impression was when he had exited the game, bringing toys for the silly girl.
"Master, did you finish your retreat? Fat Ya missed you so much."
Seeing her master emerge from the cave mansion, Fat Ya rushed into his arms with her chubby little legs, acting coquettishly.
He then took out a pile of toys from his bosom, including building blocks and books and such.
"Master, why does this pig demon like stomping water?"
"Um… Perhaps it's because his Cultivation Techniques are of water attribute, so he is naturally fond of water."
• • •
At this moment,
Seeing immersed in memories, the expressionless Xuanqing,
Gentleman Bai She thought his master was suspicious, and hurriedly explained,
"Master!"
"Junior Sister Qingwan is quite talented in handling political affairs. In fact, many of the development strategies you bestowed upon us were implemented by her."
Xuanqing's thoughts were pulled back from his memories by the sound of Gentleman Bai She's voice in his ear,
"I never thought the silly little girl from back then had such talent!"
Xuanqing murmured in amazement.
"Hehe, yes- After cultivating the Destiny Golden Dragon body, I plan to assist Junior Sister Qingwan for some time and then pass on the ruler's position of Black Wind Nation to her!"
