Heaven.
It is said to be heaven, but it is actually a place similar to a conference room.
There are a total of twelve super powerful immortal cultivators who can enter this level, so they are also called the Twelve Saints of Heaven.
In fact, they are not very clear about who these twelve saints are and which realm they belong to.
After all, the immortal cultivators in this world cannot live forever, so the inheritance and replacement between them also exists.
But most of them will prepare their replacements before the previous Twelve Saints fall.
Today's Twelve Saints are the existence of this three-thousand-year reincarnation.
It's just that although the people are different, their respective titles are still fixed.
Now, in the heaven, two of the original twelve crystal pillars are extinguished.
One is one of the holy gods they jointly launched to the lower world not long ago: Hao Shen.
As we all know, Hao Shen fell into the world of monsters and beasts and was annihilated by the masters of the world of monsters and beasts headed by the Demon King.
The identity of the other unlit crystal pillar is now clear.
The contemporary demon king fights.
If it were in the past, they would just think that this was of course just a title inherited.
But now the situation has obviously changed.
"I didn't expect that there were beings from over there mixed in among us," a voice said, "Obviously, such a result has been planned for tens of thousands of years.
Douzhan is from over there, and is in the same group as Tu Dao Xiaoyao Xian. "
"Hmph!" Another voice said with disdain, "The left and right are just taking advantage of the ten-life covenant. They were able to escape the catastrophe of annihilation, and that's why they have survived until now."
"You can't underestimate the enemy so much," someone expressed a different opinion. "There are ten chances to fight. Can this appearance be considered as the last chance?"
"Last time Xu Mochen entered the underworld, the Buddhist cultivation world, and the Wenfa Sect's Yunshang Realm, there were people there who stepped forward to block him. These people are also related to the tenth life covenant."
"Usually, that's fine. They're just pawns between each other, but I really didn't expect this time that our side was actually infiltrated as well."
"It seems that in this final round, it's a matter of two who will win."
"Be careful, if that person hears it, will we still be alive?"
After these words came out, the remaining ten saints were silent for a while.
"Then let me tell you frankly, are there any people from that side among us now?"
Still no one answered, no one dared to speak.
"That's all." This voice was the one who spoke at the beginning, looking very old, "I also think that even if you are here, you will not expose yourself.
This time we were negligent. Not only did Hao Shen fall, but he also took on the golden body of Tu Dao.
The golden body was finally snatched away by people from the Buddhist cultivation world.
So what do you say about the living Tripitaka? "
After a period of silence, the named "Living Tripitaka" spoke: "It was also unexpected."
"That's it?" Someone else sneered, "You are in charge of the Buddhist cultivation world, and you can see it clearly from the clouds to the mortal world. You don't know who stole the golden body."
"Buddha's teachings are boundless, but only in a targeted sense," said Sanzang, who was not angry. "If it were truly boundless, wouldn't it mean that all the worlds in the ten directions would belong to my Buddhist sect."
"Now I'm not arguing with you about Buddha's teachings," the old voice brought the topic back, "but we want to get to the bottom of it."
The current Sanzang's tone was still calm: "I just said it, I didn't expect it.
If it exists in the Buddhist cultivation world, it will naturally be known.
But if he is the same as Douzhan, or even Tu Dao himself, there is nothing I can do. "
After saying this, everyone was choked up.
"We are not pursuing the case," the old voice continued, "We must definitely investigate the whereabouts of the golden body."
"Of course," Reality Tripitaka immediately agreed, "No need to remind you, I will get started.
Once the results are available, we will notify you as soon as possible
Everyone. "
"Hmph! Who knows if you are from there too."
"Be careful!" The old voice stopped him immediately, "Don't mess up your position because of the battle. Maybe this is the result they want to see.
The Twelve Saints were created by the one who created them. Naturally, they are incompatible with each other on the Tu Dao side.
The two sides have different chess camps, so there is absolutely no room for maneuver.
Now it's just a loophole, it's not a complete failure. "
Everyone was speechless.
"Find out the matter about the golden body as soon as possible," the old voice said in a tone that left no room for doubt, "Now that the world of monsters and beasts has made a choice, it is against us. How do you think we should deal with it?"
"Entering the mortal world is just a step down," one person sneered, "We don't need to waste our time on them.
However, this matter is ultimately a rebellion among the Twelve Saints, and we still have to show our attitude. "
"I agree with this point," someone agreed, "Dou Zhan and the living Tripitaka are related to each other. In addition to the matter of the golden body, it is better to deal with it together.
Since you say you are innocent, you have to show your attitude. "
The living Tripitaka did not speak.
"This is the best way to deal with it. The Buddha and the demon are originally targeted, so it would be best for the Buddhist community to take action."
"Perhaps Douzhan knows who in the Buddhist world took away the golden body."
"Is there something wrong with the golden body sealed by your Buddhist cultivation world?"
They are all questioning voices.
The present Tripitaka said without any haste or delay: "There is no problem with the golden body in the world of Buddhist cultivation.
Since everyone agrees with this, I will take action to solve this problem.
But if Douzhan was from over there, he would naturally fall after ten chances. "
"When you enter the world of monsters and beasts, you must be clear about everything," the old voice said again, "Since they are rebels, we cannot give them any escape route.
In your Buddhist cultivation world, you don’t have the supreme Buddha’s light to shine upon. "
Someone laughed.
"Are you serious?" Sanzang was slightly surprised. "As soon as the supreme Buddha's light comes out, the world of monsters and beasts will naturally die, but the human race in the mortal world will also..."
"Are they a problem we should consider?" the old voice asked, "Or do you have a better way to erase the entire realm of monsters and beasts?
Don’t forget, it once existed in a part of the Upper Cloud World. "
Sanzang was silent for a while: "Okay, I can go back and make arrangements.
However, the activation of the Supreme Buddha’s Light takes time.
And when it comes to the mortal world, everyone should pay attention to the fact that the representative of the human race in the mortal world is Xu Mochen, the Emperor of Daqian. "
"Hahaha," someone laughed immediately, "I wasn't sure whether Tu Dao was him before, so we were still wary.
Now that things are clear, what is there to fear about a mere human emperor? "
The current Sanzang's voice was very calm: "Yes, it's just such a mere human emperor who went to the world of monsters and beasts, and ended up in the current situation."
"You!" The man just now was irritated, and he roared angrily.
"That's all," the old voice sounded a little angry, "What the living Sanzang said makes sense. Xu Mochen, the mortal human emperor, is a chess piece. Since he has been exposed, we must get rid of him."
"This is easy to handle," a faint voice said, "We don't need to do it ourselves, I will arrange for someone to handle it.
This won't affect the overall situation, which is good. "
"Okay," the old voice was satisfied, "Then let's do it like this.
I don't want to hear any surprises, otherwise, you just wait for that person's accountability. "
After saying that, the crystal pillar representing him dimmed.
"Let's go, let's go. What an interesting matchup."
"Haha, I met my opponent in chess..."
"It seems that both sides have their own advantages."
Various sounds rang out, and the crystal pillars dimmed one after another.
In the end, the only ones that were lit were the one known as the living Sanzo and the two people who had just made the faint sound.
The faint voice asked: "Are you really going to take action against the mortal world?"
The living Sanzang asked, "Are you really going to take action against Xu Mochen?"
Listening to each other's question, both of them laughed involuntarily.
"You are not from over there." The faint voice seemed to be answering itself.
"How do you know I'm not?" Sanzang smiled instead, "It's the same in Douzhan, so I might be too."
"Okay," the faint voice also laughed, "I'll deal with Xu Mochen, you interfere in the mortal world.
Let's see what else happens this time. "
"It seems you are enjoying it." Sanzang asked with a smile.
"Of course," Youyou's voice was full of optimism, "We don't have a promise of ten lives, but the inheritance has been passed down for such a long time, and I can see the ending with my own eyes. It's not a waste of time to cultivate immortality."
As he spoke, the crystal pillar representing Him also dimmed.
The living Sanzang sighed slightly: "Is this the last round..."
Interesting!
Xu Mochen didn't know that the big guys in Heaven were already planning the follow-up, so he returned to the capital with his harem group.
Naturally, Tang Derun also rushed back and continued to ride the horses.
After calculating the time, he remembered that it was almost two years since he went to the Cloud World, but only a few months had passed here in the mortal world.
He had not left for a long time, and with Zhao Lingbo acting as emperor, there were no major changes in the court.
Prime Minister Chi Mobei, although he is still the Prime Minister, but the general trend is that there are fewer and fewer immortal cultivators in the court, so he simply only names himself.
The small team management office originally established by Xu Mochen has become an organization similar to the "Cabinet" and "Military Aircraft Department".
However, the members inside are more complicated.
This is due to some of the policies originally introduced.
For example, in the medical field, Xu Mochen was the first to develop it, and Zhao Lingbo served as the Minister of Health.
The past few months have not been long, but the development has been rapid. In addition to the original Ningzhou Pharmaceutical Branch, three additional large factories in the north, west and south have been added.
There are also small branch factories set up in the capital city, totaling a dozen.
One of the reasons why there are so many is that the domestic roads in Daqian have not yet been renovated and logistics transportation is not developed enough.
In addition, some technical jobs need to be promoted.
The establishment of a large number of pharmaceutical factories has completely solved the problem of illness for many people, and some products are also transported to other countries through overseas trade.
What is exchanged is not only money, but also some special products from various places, such as rubber, metal, etc.
Some of the knowledge and technology that foreign countries in the West were leading were also brought back.
In addition, what played a great role in promoting the establishment of the new Imperial College was the New Imperial College established by Xu Mochen.
With universal education being popularized, the first batch of trained teachers have gone to work in various places.
The country and localities have become rich. In accordance with the policies given by the imperial court, various places work on farming in the morning, use their spare time in the evening to organize studies, and carry out literacy campaigns, which have also won the support of most people.
Being able to read and write, and learn arithmetic techniques, etc., they are saying that they have another way out.
Many of them were basic in nature, but after systematic learning, they made rapid progress.
Therefore, the first batch of people with primary school education were born.
Combined with the way adults think, they can participate in grassroots jobs such as pharmaceutical factories, hydropower stations, steel plants, and iron plants.
It requires physical strength, but it cannot be uneducated. Elementary school level is just right.
When Xu Mochen was gone, Zhao Lingbo, Shen Zhining and others discussed repeatedly and finally made such a policy.
Some who have reached the peak of their receptive ability are not forced to continue education, but invest in early industrialization plants.
In this way, the quality of the personnel involved in the work has been improved, and
Further promote the construction of new facilities such as factories, hydropower stations, etc.
With a certain foundation in place, various other supporting industrial links have also been developed one after another.
For example, the production of wires and light bulbs, the mass production of cement and steel bars, and the mining of oil, gas, and metal resources are all progressing step by step.
Of course, the higher the degree of industrialization, the higher the educational requirements for workers, and it has not yet reached the point of establishing a complete industrial system.
However, some mechanical vehicles, equipment, etc., and testing machines for samples have been produced.
Then there are national research institutes, the latest technologies, etc., which are almost at the level of the second industrial era.
What Xu Mochen saw was the relevant summary report.
The pyramid of the technology tree is gradually being built, and there are still many shortcomings, but the overall framework has been developed.
"How will the people accept it?" Xu Mochen was worried that it would be pushed too fast.
"There are no problems so far," Zhao Lingbo smiled and brought over some memorials. "This is a report from a survey conducted by various state capitals. The imperial court conducted a public opinion survey, and the feedback from the people was very good."
After all, various agricultural technologies have improved, their incomes are higher, and they have sufficient food. This was unimaginable in the previous troubled times.
Xu Mochen looked at the memorial. It was no longer the thick book before, but had been changed to A4 size paper.
Yes, papermaking technology was developed, as well as simple pen and ink.
It's just that most of them are trial products for court officials and nobles, and are generally not available to the common people.
But this is all a matter of time. The more technology develops, the cheaper these kinds of things will become.
After all, these things have technical ceilings.
"As for the courtiers, many immortal cultivators have resigned," Zhao Lingbo said in a helpless tone, "Your Majesty promoted the distinction between immortals and mortals. At the beginning, they still waited and watched.
But as Prime Minister Chi retreated behind the scenes and the overall level of Daqian improved recently, they also resigned.
This is not just true for many former immortal cultivators in the court and local areas. "
Although this change was expected, Xu Mochen couldn't help but be moved when he heard it: "Is it because of the increased immortality?"
As the people produce more, there will naturally be more food sources for refining Qi.
But what affects the cultivation of immortality is the fate of immortality.
Shifang World will not leave the scope of its control for no reason.
