"I want this person, and I would like to ask Immortal Lord Chang Geng to ask His Majesty for instructions. Whether it succeeds or not depends entirely on God's will."
Jiang Chen thought for a moment and then spoke.
"All right."
"Since Chunyang Immortal Lord has said so, I will truthfully report to Your Majesty whether it can be done or not. I dare not guarantee it."
Immortal Lord Chang Geng spoke up.
"Okay, then there is Immortal Lao Changgeng."
Jiang Chen spoke up.
He did not stay longer in the Immortal Palace, got the roster of mountain gods, water gods, and earth gods, exchanged a few words with Immortal Lord Chang Geng, and then left the Immortal Palace.
After he has selected the people, he will copy them to Immortal Chang Geng, and then Immortal Chang Geng will mobilize the personnel.
After Jiang Chen left, Immortal Lord Chang Geng continued to deal with the memorials on the documents. After all of them were dealt with, he walked towards the Tiangong.
When Immortal Lord Chang Geng met the Emperor of Heaven, he first reported the contents of today's memorial, and then informed the Emperor of the undecided memorial and asked him to make a decision. Finally, he told what Jiang Chen had told him when he went to the Immortal Palace today.
"This Chunyang Immortal Lord knows how to take advantage of loopholes, but he used to look for veterans of the past, looking for elite soldiers from hundreds of battles, and selected the middle-level strength of the legion from the mountain gods, water gods, earth gods and other minor gods, and also targeted the former heavenly soldiers to be his legions. leader, in this way, he can organize an elite army in less than a hundred years."
"But if you want these veterans from the previous dynasty, you will offend many legions. Mobilizing the mountain gods, water gods, and earth gods will also dissatisfy those guys who are greedy for pleasure. If you want the soldier Baili Dongjun, you will offend King Tengtian. A whole line of people.”
"If his army is established, he will probably offend half of the people in heaven!"
The Emperor smiled and said.
Jiang Chen's move was exactly what he wanted. If Jiang Chen took office and stayed in seclusion, or made friends everywhere, then he would be uneasy.
Now Jiang Chen started acting recklessly as soon as he arrived, and he didn't care at all. Whether he did it deliberately to show him, or he was just such a troublesome guy, it was a good thing for the Emperor of Heaven.
"Then does Your Majesty think that Lord Chunyang's request can be granted?"
Immortal Lord Chang Geng asked.
"He can choose between mountain gods, water gods, and earth gods, as well as veterans from the previous dynasty. As for Baili Dongjun...well, it's time for him to come out and walk around."
"Now that the three realms are united, the fairy world is in chaos, and those four guys are not very stable. Maybe Baili Dongjun is released and allowed to reorganize a hundred-fighter force. Maybe he can become a hanging man on Wang Teng's neck at the critical moment. A knife!"
"If Wang Teng and Chunyang fight, it seems to be a good choice. If I want to unify the three realms, I still need the power of these four guys for the time being."
"If the Three Realms are unified and the Immortal Realm is under my control, the power of these four guys should also be weakened. Some people should be beaten all the time so that they can keep their peace."
"Chun Yang Immortal Lord is suitable to be a butcher knife in my hand, just to see if he is willing, but since he wants to conquer Baili Dongjun, he has to be the knife in my hand!"
The Emperor of Heaven spoke with a deep look.
"Although Chunyang Immortal Lord is in charge of the Great Way of Creation, it has only been a short time since he broke through and became a Celestial Immortal. However, Baili Dongjun mastered the art of war millions of years ago and became a Soldier Immortal. Later, he trapped himself in Tianlao and became a Celestial Immortal. He understood the way of the ruthless sword, and later he created the ruthless sword, and then he understood the way of the sword."
"Although these three avenues are comparable to Chunyang Immortal Lord's creation avenue, it may not be easy for Chunyang Immortal Lord to conquer Baili Dongjun."
Immortal Lord Chang Geng spoke up.
"The opportunity has been given to him. If he fails to seize it, it is not my fault. But before, Chunyang Immortal Lord Xiaolu stretched out his hand and pinched a left-behind immortal to death. This shows that his strength is definitely not weak."
"Sometimes, the level of strength depends not only on the number of avenues controlled, but also on the quality of the avenues controlled. The avenue of creation is the most powerful avenue. If a series of supporting techniques, magical powers and secrets are created, the strength will be Then you can soar, and it is not too difficult to conquer Baili Dongjun."
"But I'm afraid Baili Dongjun will not be convinced. Now we have to see what means our Chunyang Immortal Lord can use to impress Baili Dongjun."
A gloating smile appeared on the Emperor's face, and Immortal Lord Chang Geng couldn't help but smile after hearing this.
"In that case, let's take a look at Chunyang Immortal Lord's methods."
Immortal Lord Chang Geng spoke up.
Three days later, Jiang Chen read through the roster of the earth gods, water gods, and mountain gods under the jurisdiction of the entire heaven. He carefully selected more than 3,000 people among them, and asked Immortal Chang Geng to issue an order to transfer them. Transferred to Jiang Chen's command.
And those veterans of the previous dynasty have been recalled in the major legions, and the number is more than expected, about 13,000 people. Jiang Chen has gathered about 17,000 people out of this 100,000 army, and Everyone is a master, and the weakest ones are also in the late human immortal stage.
When Jiang Chen went to the Immortal Palace to return the roster, Immortal Lord Chang Geng took out the decree of the Emperor of Heaven and asked Jiang Chen to go to Tianlao in person to raise people. If Baili Dongjun is willing to surrender to him and follow him out of Tianlao, it all depends on him. ability.
Jiang Chen immediately became interested and asked Immortal Chang Geng about the location of Tianlao. Then he left the Immortal Palace and went straight to Tianlao. When he arrived at Tianlao, Jiang Chen directly revealed the decree of the Emperor of Heaven, and an immortal guarding Tianlao directly let him go. , and took Jiang Chen to the place where Baili Dongjun was imprisoned, and then left on his own.
Jiang Chen felt that there was an extremely terrifying aura deep in the sky prison, and there were more than one, which was enough to threaten his life. The people in the sky prison were all heavenly immortals, and the earthly immortals were not qualified to be locked up here.
The person guarding the Heavenly Prison is also an Immortal Lord, and a very ancient and powerful Immortal Lord.
This Immortal Lord is called the Prison-Suppressing Immortal Lord, and he is in charge of the eight avenues. The Emperor of Heaven is considered a junior in front of him, so when a new Immortal Lord like Jiang Chen comes, he will not even show his face.
"You are the new Immortal Lord in Heaven. Why have I never seen or heard of you before?"
Baili Dongjun looked at Jiang Chen and said in a deep voice.
He has a resolute face, a Chinese character face, a full beard, disheveled hair, and is very embarrassed. He is very tall, naked to the waist, his limbs are pierced by magical instruments, and his whole body is tightly bound to the cross by the divine chain of order.
Jiang Chen felt that the person standing in front of him did not look like a person, but like a savage beast. The strength of this Baili Dongjun was not like the rumors. He definitely not only understood the art of war, but also other things. Avenue.
"I ascended from the lower world, but I did not ascend by myself, but brought the whole world to the upper realm. The world I am in is called the human world. I am the master of the human world and am respected by others. As the human emperor, he understood the great way of creation after entering the upper realm. Later, the three realms of heaven, earth and man merged into one, and he was recruited by the emperor of heaven and named the Pure Yang Immortal Lord."
"Now I am preparing to form my own private legion, so I asked Your Majesty to ask you to serve as the leader of my Chunyang legion. What do you think?!"
Jiang Chen briefly introduced his origins and purpose, and spoke directly.
"I seem to hear someone farting. I am a guard of the Emperor of Heaven. You are just a little immortal king. What qualifications do you have to let me be your retainer?"
Baili Dongjun looked at Jiang Chen with a sneer and said with disdain.
"My status is higher than yours, my fists are bigger than yours, are these enough?"
Jiang Chen calmly looked at Baili Dongjun and said.
"Hahaha!"
"not enough!"
"If you want me to surrender, there is only one condition. Then cut off Wang Teng's head. Can you do it?"
Baili Dongjun said.
"I can do it, but who am I to do it for you?"
"You are indeed a talented person, but you are not the only one in heaven who is a soldier, and you have been imprisoned for millions of years. How much of your ability to mobilize troops and generals is left now?"
"Besides, if you ask me to cut off Wang Teng's head for you, does that count as revenge for you?"
"Hehehe!"
"In my opinion, you are a coward. You don't even have the courage to take revenge on your enemies. Instead, you place your hopes on others. It is simply stupid!"
Jiang Chen walked up to Baili Dongjun and patted his shoulders gently. Baili Dongjun was stunned, then looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief and said:
"I will help you run the general army well. If there is a chance in the future, you can help me to kill Wang Teng. I wonder if it is okay?!"
"Then...please cooperate!"
The great avenues of creation emerged around Jiang Chen, directly shattering all the magic weapons and the divine chain of order that trapped Baili Dongjun. The three great powers of Baili Dongjun's weaponry, sword, and ruthless ways were intertwined with each other, instantly destroying Baili Dongjun. The wounds on his body healed.
"My subordinate Baili Dongjun, please pay homage to your lord!"
Baili Dongjun knelt down on one knee in front of Jiang Chen to show his submission.
"Okay, okay."
"With your help, my Chunyang Army will be even more powerful!"
Jiang Chen quickly helped him up and said with a smile.
Just now, he gently patted Baili Dongjun four times, allowing him to feel the power of the four avenues of creation, Xuanhuang, Five Elements, and Yin and Yang. This also convinced Baili Dongjun that Jiang Chen already had the strength to compete with the four heavenly kings.
His beloved was killed, he himself was persecuted, and he was imprisoned. Even the Emperor of Heaven could not make a decision for him to redress his grievances, so he could only be trapped in the prison and would never leave.
Now he saw in Jiang Chen his hope for revenge, so it was time for him to leave!
Jiang Chen also thought that if Baili Dongjun still refused to surrender after he showed his power, then he would be dead!
Before Jiang Chen has the strength to crush everything, he must not reveal his true strength!
Jiang Chen left Tianlao with Baili Dongjun, and soon the news spread in the heaven. For a time, the names of Chunyang Immortal Lord and Baili Dongjun repeatedly appeared in everyone's chat topics.
Heavenly Palace.
When the Heavenly Emperor heard that Baili Dongjun had surrendered to Jiang Chen, he said in disbelief:
"The two of them didn't do anything. They just exchanged a few words and Baili Dongjun surrendered?"
"Could it be that he has been imprisoned for too long, so he has looked away from everything, and Immortal Chunyang can take him out of the prison, so he decisively agreed to Immortal Chunyang's conditions?"
"This shouldn't be the case. This is not the Baili Dongjun I know."
Tengtian Palace.
"Hehehe."
"Baili Dongjun left Tianlao, took refuge in Chunyang Immortal Lord, and became his retainer!"
"Okay, okay, it's really good. Two people I hate very much have come together. It seems like I should find an opportunity to kill these two guys directly!"
King Teng Tian said with murderous intent.
He has always been like this, daring to love and hate. He seems to be very brainless, but his straightforward methods and character make him very attractive to a group of heavenly soldiers and generals. Therefore, his influence in the army is greater than that of the other three heavenly kings. Higher.
Immortal Palace.
"Chun Yang Immortal Lord just recovered the Soldier Immortal Baili Dong Lord, this is really incredible!"
"Did he really promise Baili Dongjun to kill King Tengtian, but it is impossible for Baili Dongjun to believe such a verbal check?"
"This in the end is why?"
"Hehehe, interesting, really interesting!"
"I'm afraid the heaven will be very lively in the future."
Immortal Lord Chang Geng was also very surprised after hearing the news.
Although he was optimistic about Jiang Chen, he still found it a bit incredible that he had conquered a soldier who was in charge of three avenues so quickly.
Even some of Jiang Chen's old friends from the human world who had joined the Heavenly Court felt very speechless. As expected, Jiang Chen could make a big splash wherever he was.
This is not a peaceful master!
With the joining of Baili Dongjun, plus the veterans of the previous dynasty and the more than 3,000 mountain gods, earth gods, and water gods, his team of Chunyang Legion has been established. The next steps are recruiting, training new recruits, etc. Jiang Chen blamed Baili Dongjun for everything.
Baili Dongjun lived up to his expectations. It took him only three years to recruit more than 70,000 troops and raise enough to build an organization of 100,000. Then he began to rectify military discipline, train new recruits, and run the legion. After more than ten years of training , although this legion has not seen blood yet, it can already be regarded as a mature legion.
So Baili Dongjun hopes that Jiang Chen will ask for a battle. A powerful army is definitely not trained, but fought. If the Chunyang Army cannot experience war, it will never be able to become the king's division!
Jiang Chen agreed to Baili Dongjun's request and asked Immortal Lord Chang Geng for several tasks. Most of them were tasks to compete with other forces for some immortal world cultivation resources. The opponent's military strength would not be too strong, which was just suitable for Chunyang. Legion training.
After hundreds of years of fighting, the Chunyang Legion has gradually become famous and has become a new legion in Heaven. The size of the legion has also expanded from the original one hundred thousand to two hundred thousand. This is the limit that Jiang Chen can strive for. .
Moreover, Jiang Chen needed to pay for the extra 100,000 soldiers and horses by himself. Fortunately, Huang Cheng's reform of Tianjie had begun to bear fruit, and Jiang Chen had a steady supply of fairy stones, so he could barely afford to pay for these troops. One hundred thousand troops.
"Not long ago, we had a battle with the legion under the Wandao Alliance and defeated it directly. We seized a lot of military supplies. Later, we intercepted the military pay of the Buddha Kingdom and relieved the urgent need of the Chunyang Legion. But it will not work if it continues like this. No, we still need open source!"
"We have to make money!"
Jiang Chen listened to Baili Dongjun's report and spoke with some distress.
If you are not a master, you don’t know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive. You need to raise an army of 200,000 people. You need too many things. Some heavens can provide these things, but some heavens cannot give them. Anything less will cost Jiang Chen. Pay out of pocket!
Jiang Chen's own salary is not much, and his biggest source of income is Tianjie. However, the amount of fairy stones Tianjie earns is getting less and less than what he needs.
"Baili, do you have any good ways to make money?"
Jiang Chen looked at the increasingly energetic Baili Dongjun and asked.
"Lord, if you ask me to go to war, I can say that I can capture you. But if you ask me to raise food and wages, it will be harder than killing me."
"Since I led the army, all supplies have been provided directly by Heaven. I have never had the experience of raising a private army by myself!"
Baili Dongjun said helplessly.
"If we can plunder Tianjie, we may be able to support an army of 200,000 for hundreds or even thousands of years. The merchants of these Tianjie are all extremely rich."
"But I can't keep it to myself!"
Jiang Chen said helplessly.
"Lord, if we can't rob heaven, why can't we rob others?"
Baili Dongjun said as if he suddenly thought of something.
"Steal someone else's?"
"You mean to go to the Earthly Immortal Palace, the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance, and the Buddha Kingdom to grab their territory?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"Of course not."
"The risk of going to those places is too great. If the Lord of Earthly Immortals, Lord Buddha, Jade Emperor and others take action, even if the two of us join forces, we may not be able to escape unscathed."
"The time the Lord came to Heaven was too short, and most of the weekdays were spent in seclusion and practice, so he didn't know much about some things in Heaven. Tianjie is the source of income for Tianjie, but the taxes on Tianjie are too high, so there are some People secretly opened a ghost street."
"The tax on Ghost Street is more than double that of Tianjie, and it is protected by a big shot. It is also very safe. Many things that cannot be bought on Tianjie can be bought on Ghost Street."
"Back then, I was interested in a silver scale robe, which was an immortal-level robe, a celestial armor with a billion immortal stones, or three immortal-level magic weapons to barter for."
"Then I found the exact same thing on Ghost Street. Ghost Street only requires 700 million fairy stones, or two immortal-level magic weapons, so I decisively bought this robe on Ghost Street."
Baili Dongjun explained.
"In that case, Ghost Street is actually a tax avoidance version of Tianjie. A ghost street is opened in the territory of Tianting. Moreover, His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven turns a blind eye to this. It seems that the person behind this ghost street should be Tianting. The top brass."
"Are they the Four Heavenly Kings, or some powerful Immortal Lords and Star Lords?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"They all have it. The ghost streets opened by the four heavenly kings are of the highest standard, even bigger than our Qingmangtian Street. Some immortal kings and star kings rely on the four ghost streets to open up their own ghost streets, and regularly visit the four ghost streets. The heavenly kings pay tribute to ensure that their ghost streets are safe and sound. They form a special chain of interests and collude with the four heavenly kings."
Baili Dongjun said.
