Perhaps because of the previous mutual courtesy, the relationship between Milo and Mrs. Shunji instantly became much closer. After Mrs. Shunji's explanation, Milo also understood the reason for her appearance here.
The East China Sea originally had corresponding guardians, but due to the overt and covert fighting between Xuzhou Shaoqing Sect and Qingzhou Oriental Demon Cult over the years, there are only a few places in the entire East China Sea with problems similar to the sea beasts in front of us, and problems have arisen in other places. , mostly because the Shaoqing sect is subduing demons, or the Eastern Demonic Cult is causing trouble.
Over time, Shinto interfered less and less in this matter. Instead, the great master of the Neon Island Kingdom, Poseidon Toyama Mingjin, began to expand his authority outwards, with vague signs of involving the coastal areas of Middle-earth.
There are corresponding traces of this in Yangzhou and Jingzhou. In Mao County, Dinghai County, Qingyuan Prefecture, where Miluo and Mrs. Shunji first met, there is a place to worship the main deity of Feng Yuming God.
It's just that the strength of Xuzhou's Shaoqing sect monks makes it difficult for this kind of belief to take root, and the weirdness of Qingzhou's Oriental Demon Cult makes it difficult for this kind of belief to last forever.
But whether it is the strength of Shaoqing or the weirdness of the Demon Cult, they are all negotiable matters for businessmen. Compared with the suppression of the two major sects, they hope that the trade between China and Neon, and Zhongshan will be more prosperous. Stablize.
"Taiyue Mountain and Liuguan don't have an explanation? And the Qian family didn't interfere?" Seeing that Milo looked a little unhappy, Mrs. Shunji continued to explain: "It's not easy for Liuguan to intervene directly, but Taiyue Mountain did want to stop it. , but was blocked by businessmen from two states in the name of crossing the border, as for the Qian family, they have tried their best."
"Huh?" Milo frowned slightly, looking back at Xuzhou, Qingzhou, Yangzhou and other places in Hanxia, and found that with the decrease of mud demons, grass sprites, water sprites and other ghosts on the mainland in recent years, as well as the continuous growth of the population, these places It became more and more prosperous.
In the eyes of practitioners, there are wisps of golden auspicious clouds rising above the important nodes of Hanxia's business dealings. Wherever the light shines, the wall bricks are dyed golden, the tiles reveal glazed glass, and the thatched houses turn into cloud towers. The horses' wings are raised, and everything is magnificent. The splendor and magnificence make all viewers endlessly yearn for it.
But at the same time, beneath these golden splendors, there are thousands of mundane miscellaneous things hidden. With wealth as the core, all things in the world, such as ups and downs, joys and sorrows, love, hatred, etc., are constantly interpreted and turned into a network that corrodes people's hearts. , expand outward.
It can be said that under this huge network that connects all things in the human world, if there is not a mainstream wealth within the wealth, which is clear and transparent, adheres to the concepts of contract, justice, circulation, etc., and suppresses the wild growth of other wealth, all things in the network will be mixed. It is enough to make people confused by all five aggregates, and they are deeply trapped in it, unable to extricate themselves.
It's just that since this wealth suppresses the growth of other wealth, it must also be interfered by other wealth. The places it can interfere with are relatively limited, and many corners are difficult to touch.
Milo took another look at the order and power derived from the six-sensory system. It was about one-tenth stronger than before he flew into the sky, and the mainstream of this increase in power was the wealth derived from frequent exchanges with various places.
But it is very interesting that the power of the six sense organs system does not directly intervene in the changes in wealth. The main body just anchors some important nodes in the world network just in case, while the local parts are intertwined with the network itself.
Milo, who has never been involved in the Hanxia official system, said that he can't understand Liuguan's thoughts, but he is not the kind of stupid young man who will not interfere with the overall layout according to his own wishes. He is communicating with Mrs. Shunji. At the same time, he was multi-tasking, packaging the information he collected and sending it to True Lord Du'e and Lord Wenxuan, while silently contacting his acquaintances in Hanxia.
A Gong in the Palace of the Gods felt the message from Milo and quickly jumped up from his position. After A Gong read it carefully, he also looked outside to feel the changes in Hanxia's Shinto. As Mi Luo saw, with the decrease of mud monsters, grass monsters, water monsters and other monsters in various places, the roads did not need to be maintained frequently. The time and effort required for trade and farm maintenance have plummeted.
In the past, most places in Hanxia needed to form caravans and gather people together to travel in major cities. Once they cross counties, prefectures, or even states, the time, energy, manpower, and material resources required increase by leaps and bounds.
Therefore, in the past, only Qian families who were able to establish shops in various cities in Hanxia and establish basic trade contacts would become the first-class families and take charge of the business power in Hanxia.
However, as the cost of doing business decreases, the population continues to increase, and the population required for farmland maintenance decreases, trade between various places has become a policy implemented by officials in recent years, stimulating the local economy and promoting the exchange of wealth among various regions, and has become a policy in many regions. slogan.
And a large number of business transactions have naturally created a large number of big businessmen. Their energy increases little by little as their wealth continues to accumulate, and they hope to obtain more rights.
"Arrogant! Ignorant!" Ah Gong couldn't help but curse a few words as he felt the many new eighth- and ninth-grade humane gods appearing in the Palace of Gods.
But when he was really asked to deal with it, he was a little confused. He was originally overjoyed because of Milo's letter, so he could only work hard and write a reply to Milo, saying that he needed some time to deal with it. It is to communicate remotely with some great gods.
Feeling the subtle changes in Han Xia's internal aura, Milo took advantage of the time period when his aura was still recognized by Han Xia's power, and used some of the methods he had left behind in the Miao You Sect to communicate with his former fellow teachers.
Miaoyouzong is located in the back mountain of Qingdu Peak. Yun Changkong, who was transferring mana, suddenly felt something. He raised his hand and released a clear light. A jade talisman bloomed with a faint stream of light, and then Milo's shadow appeared in front of him.
"Uncle, we haven't seen you for a long time." Milo bowed and saluted. Yun Changkong looked a little nervous and happy, and said repeatedly: "It's been a while since I last saw you. How come you were distracted? But what problem did you encounter?" Zhuo Yun Changkong's face became a little worried, and then he opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he soon realized that he was just a monk on earth, he had only broken through to the realm of Tianyi some time ago, and Milo had already ascended to the sky. The problems he encountered were unimaginable, and he could no longer say the same thing as before: "Tell me to my uncle, I should be able to help you, or maybe I can help."
Milo also saw the change in Yun Changkong's expression, and hurriedly explained the reason for his coming this time, and asked the other party whether he knew about the changes in Han Xia's energy in the past few years.
Yun Changkong is also an old monk who has been practicing for many years. He has experienced many illusory realms and has heard about some worlds similar to modern ones. He naturally has some speculations about the changes in the current situation in Hanxia.
He whispered: "The six sense organs are playing with fire!" In Yun Changkong's view, Han Xia has existed for tens of thousands of years, during which time he has absorbed a large amount of extraterrestrial debris. What kind of situation has Han Xia never seen? Don’t officials understand the order and improvement of national destiny brought about by prosperous commerce?
But Hanxia ultimately requires the existence of high-level monks, and the higher you go, the higher the requirements for your character. Simply developing the economy can certainly make the world more prosperous, but the suppression of high-level monks can really Does it work?
Not to mention the distance, purely from a military perspective, a military monk in the Tianyi realm, with himself as the core, leading a hundred thousand Yuye realm soldiers holding sophisticated magical weapons, can suppress five or six Tianyi realm monks in the same realm.
But without the pull of the Tianyi realm military monks, even if the magic weapons in the hands of one hundred thousand soldiers were upgraded to a higher level, it would be difficult to suppress a Tianyi realm monk.
In the same way, no matter how much the power of the Hanxia Order increases, without the guidance of high-ranking monks, how effective can it be in facing the suppression of the true gods of the ancient northern country?
But Yun Changkong also understood that this was inevitable. As many accomplished monks left Hanxia, Emperor Jinhong himself rarely performed miracles, and with the entire power of Hanxia almost controlled by the six sense organs, some internal considerations were unavoidable.
To put it bluntly, the emperor's faith has gradually faded under the erosion of time. This disintegration does not refer to the number of people and the atmosphere of belief, but the awe of the emperor is constantly weakening.
Compared with admonitions left for faith, actual political achievements are more important. In particular, the compassionate gestures of the emperor and the immortal gods have always made it easier for some people to have some thoughts that they shouldn't have.
"It lacks the intimidation of thunderous means." Yun Changkong sighed, and then promised Milo that he and others would deal with the follow-up issues.
After receiving the answer, Milo took advantage of his own power and was rejected by Han Xia. He exchanged insights on spiritual practice with Yun Changkong. Before leaving, he turned the power of his incarnation into a magical talisman and presented it to Yun Changkong.
"Uncle Master, you gave me a lot of things back then, and I have nothing to repay. This talisman is the result of my insights in recent years. It contains thirty-three divine thunders, intertwined with each other, and constructed If you encounter a strong enemy with this formation, you can throw it out and turn it into a thirty-three-layer thunder formation to trap it, which is enough to deal with ordinary monks in the Tianyi realm." Yun Changkong looked at the thunderous light, which was not too powerful. Fu Lu shook his head and said: "The fact that you can achieve something is the greatest reward to me, and the fact that you can soar into the sky is the greatest affirmation for me. Such a gift, eh..." Yun Changkong looked like he hadn't finished listening to his own words. Milo, who had completely disappeared under the rejection of Han Xia Nei Order, sighed and put the thunder talisman into his arms, while the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly.
On the other side, above the East China Sea, Milo pulled out thirty-three thunderbolts from the Doube formation and sent them out. He looked at the much clearer water, contacted the senior military strategist who invited him to come here to experiment with the formation, and got After they were deducing the answers to the subsequent changes, they said to Mrs. Shunji: "This beast has been killed. I still have some time to go and plan to patrol here. Do you have any recommendations for Taoist friends?" Milo's words The meaning of "Zhong" has been expressed clearly. Mrs. Shunji smiled and said: "Since the real person is leisurely and elegant, and plans to patrol, then I really have two places that are more suitable. Just for example, the East China Sea is a bit far away, I don't know how to respect the gods. Are you willing to move?"
"Of course you can." Milo nodded, smiling and letting Mrs. Shunji lead the way. After hearing this, Mrs. Shunji was about to leave, but suddenly she seemed to feel something. She looked towards the outer edge of the sea area, looked back at Milo, and saw that he raised his hand to indicate that she would take action. She smiled and waved her long sleeves towards the sea. In an instant, the seawater rolled up and turned into the Milky Way and fell. As it rose and fell, the seawater turned into a dragon whale hundreds of feet long hanging in the sea, stretching its neck and emitting a melodious whale song.
The huge sound echoed around, and wherever the sound passed, the remaining chaotic demonic energy was greatly weakened. When some boatmen in the distance who were planning to avoid this sea area heard this song, they all expressed joy and cheered to each other: "It's Mrs. Shunji who is subduing the devil. The dragon whale's singing is melodious. It is obvious that the evil spirit has been suppressed. The front is safe." "While speaking, everyone also kowtowed to the sea, and wisps of wishes gathered towards Mrs. Shunji.
Mrs. Shunji, whose divine light became more and more dazzling, landed on the dragon whale. The divine chakra behind her head was dazzling, shining brightly in all directions. Seeing this, Milo raised his hand to summon the gods of Doube and Water, surrounding them. Next to Mrs. Shunji.
The lights of the gods intersect, creating thousands of auspicious clouds, thunder drums, and nectar flowing, constantly purifying the sea area, allowing fishermen around to see the power of Mrs. Shunji, especially the neon lights on the other side of the sea. The members on the boat kept kowtowing and praying devoutly under the glow.
Mrs. Shunji, who saw all this in her eyes, thanked Milo and gave a detailed introduction to the next two places that the two of them were going to deal with.
"One of these two territories is located off the coast of Yangzhou, on the route to the Southern Islands. It was originally one of the birthplaces of the Starlight Fish in the ocean. It was originally the remains of a world, suppressed by the azure gate where its final origin was condensed. and protection, but with the sacrifice and blessing of a certain true god in the Southern Islands, that area of heaven and earth basically melted and turned into a part of the Southern Islands. But there are also a small part of the wreckage, due to various reasons, under the influence of the chaotic demonic energy. The rest of the starlight fish in the sea merged and turned into a special evil thing, swimming in the southern sea, interfering with our connection with the Southern Islands. And because of the special location, whether it is our Hanxia God or the Southern Islands, None of the demigods are suitable to take action." After hearing this, Milo calculated the specific location and found that it was right on the border between Hanxia and the Southern Sea. He nodded and asked about another place.
Regarding the second location, Mrs. Shunji showed a trace of displeasure and said: "That is the descendant of the Mother of the Sea. He obviously already has a certain level of sanity. He even gained a trace of divinity through the sacrifice and blessing of the true god later. , is expected to become a god, but it likes to intimidate maritime merchants, especially merchants like us in Hanxia. If it hadn’t harmed people’s lives, I would have asked the Demon Lord to take action.”
