Donglu, Tianshi Mansion, Yanzhou.
A young man wearing a qingxia jade unicorn robe stood on a desolate and barren land. His brows were slightly furrowed and his eyes were darkened. Suddenly, the young man bent down and picked up a cup of soil on the ground with both hands.
But when I held it up, there was not much soil in my hands, but more gravel and stones.
The soil was turning into desert. Fang Jian stretched out his hands, and the sand in his hands fell from his fingers. A breeze blew by, blowing the sand everywhere.
Fang Jian raised his eyes and looked around. Everything he saw was a desert. The mountains, forests and fields that should have been lush and green were all desolate.
The Haolan Realm is not the realm actually controlled by Heaven, so there are no immortal officials in the Haolan Realm. The only one that represents Heaven is the Tianshi Mansion.
At this time, Fang Jian's eyes narrowed, and he saw someone on the road ahead, but he was lying on the ground, and he had no energy left.
Fang Jian walked in and took a look, only to find that he was a white-haired old man. He fell to the ground, his skin and bones wrapped in bones, and he had turned into a mummy.
He died of starvation, and Fang Jian could tell the cause of this man's death at just one glance.
Fang Jian raised his hand and waved, and the corpse instantly turned into a pile of soil. When the wind blew it, it flew into the desolate and barren land.
Fang Jian flew forward for hundreds of miles, and everywhere he passed was deserted and sparsely populated.
An hour later, Fang Jian finally found an inhabited village. When he landed in the village, he immediately saw several Baodan monks in Taoist robes pushing a huge wooden cart. , there are dozens of wooden carts
There were hundreds of mortals surrounding this wooden cart, and they were holding bowls of rice porridge scooped out by the monks on top of the wooden cart.
Fang Jian watched quietly. When the wooden cart came to him, the monks who were giving porridge immediately discovered Fang Jian.
So one of the monks in the car immediately flew down, looked at Fang Jian carefully with surprise and confusion in his eyes, and then raised his hands towards Fang Jian and said, "Where do you come from, fellow Taoist?
Fang Jian looked at the monk in front of him and did not answer him, but asked: "Are you monks from Tianshi Mansion?"
The monk nodded and said: "Yes, there are only monks from the Tianshi Mansion in the entire Eastern Continent. Since my fellow Taoist is not a disciple of my Tianshi Mansion, he must have come from outside the Eastern Continent?"
Apart from the Eastern Continent, there is only the Western Continent. After the monk finished speaking, the monks behind him who were serving porridge immediately looked at Fang Jian warily.
Fang Jian cupped his hands and said, "I am from outside the Eastern Continent. If you want to see the four heavenly masters, please let me know."
As soon as Fang Jian finished speaking, everyone's expressions changed drastically, especially those monks behind who had already sacrificed their magic weapons and were ready to take action at any time.
But the leading monk stared at Fang Jian, then nodded slowly and said: "Okay, let me report it to the Tianshi Mansion.
He did want to report to the Tianshi Mansion, but it was not the report as Fang Jian said. He was reporting that monks from outside the East Continent had sneaked into the East Continent and asked the Tianshi Mansion to send people to arrest them.
The Eastern Continent is protected by a large formation, and there are actually monks who can sneak in. This is no small matter.
As the monk's report reached the Tianshi Mansion, the seven priests in the Tianshi Mansion were also horrified and quickly reported the report to the three auxiliary Tianshi Mansion.
After receiving this report, the three Futian Masters were not much surprised. Instead, they immediately concluded that this person was Zhenren Hongqing, the inspector of the three realms sent by Heaven.
So, just two sticks of incense were reported to the Tianshi Mansion by the monk in front, a flying boat appeared in the sky above the village, and soon landed outside the village.
Then, dozens of Tianshi Mansion monks turned into fairy lights and landed on the flying boat, and quickly came to Fang Jian.
Fang Jian looked up and saw that the leader of the monks was a young man, but he had the cultivation of the True Immortal Realm. The monks behind him also all had the cultivation of the Yangshen Realm.
The leader of the True Immortal looked at Fang Jian, and saw that Fang Jian had an extraordinary appearance, extraordinary stature, and a stern light all over his body. Moreover, he looked at him as if he were looking into an extremely deep abyss, and could not clearly see his cultivation.
This was obviously an immortal whose spiritual conduct was far above his own, so the true immortal immediately bowed his head and said, "I am Sun Zhiren, a disciple of the Jungle of the Tianshi Mansion. May I ask if you are the Immortal Hongqing, the Inspector of the Three Realms?"
Fang Jian smiled faintly and returned the courtesy: "That's right."
Danzhu Mountain, in front of the main altar of Tianshi Mansion.
Liu Ji is holding the current Great Celestial Master Zhang Huan, and behind him are the three Assistant Celestial Masters Liu Zhaoye, Qu Han and Gao Jing.
Behind the three Assistant Heavenly Masters, seven Heavenly Masters were standing one after another to offer wine.
As for the elite disciples of the family temple and the jungle, they were arranged from inside the mountain gate to outside the mountain gate, with an extremely grand and grand scale. When the flying boat carrying Fang Jian landed on the cloud platform outside the mountain gate, Liu Zhaoye immediately coughed.
Liu Ji, who was in front, heard his brother's slight cough and immediately reacted. He took Zhang Huan's hand and walked out of the mountain gate. behind the division.
When everyone arrived and stood outside the mountain gate, they saw a long jade staircase hanging from the flying boat. Sun Zhiren took the lead to step off the flying boat from the jade steps, then bowed his head to the flying boat and said, "Welcome to Master Hongqing."
Immediately afterwards, being greeted by Sun Zhiren, a young man dressed in a qingxia jade unicorn robe, with a majestic and awe-inspiring appearance, slowly walked down the jade steps.
The moment they saw Fang Jian, the three Futian Masters Liu Zhaoye, Qu Han, and Gao Jing looked at each other, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief.
They were also Taiyi Xuanxian, so they could naturally tell at a glance that Fang Jian was also a Taiyi Xuanxian.
In fact, they were originally very worried, fearing that the inspector of the three realms was a golden immortal or above, so he would definitely steal the show.
But now they are relieved. There are three Taiyi Xuanxian and Fang Jian and one Taiyi Xuanxian. Naturally, they don’t have to worry about Fang Jian turning against the guests.
If Fang Jian knew what they were thinking at this moment, he would definitely be extremely shocked. The situation in the Haolan Realm and the situation in the Tianshi Mansion in the Eastern Continent has become so bad. How are you still afraid of this?
This is indeed unreasonable to outsiders, but from the perspective of the three Futian Masters, it is actually very reasonable.
Because the formation has been protecting the Eastern Continent for a hundred years, and there are four Ancestral Heavenly Masters and Heavenly Court behind them, it is impossible for Heavenly Court to abandon them.
Moreover, they can feel the power of Heaven from the Taoist scriptures and scriptures handed down by the ancestor Tianshi, so they are not worried about their future.
They worry about one thing, credit!
Just imagine, as the ancestors of the Celestial Masters, they have persisted in the Haolan Realm for more than a hundred years. How great a contribution is this?
If Fang Jian is a golden immortal who takes away the authority of Tianshi Mansion as soon as he comes, isn't he just here to pick peaches?
And in their minds, the Three Realms Inspector sent by the Heavenly Court was here to step in. Soon the heavenly soldiers and generals from the Heavenly Court would come and annihilate all the heretical demons and those in the God King's Palace in the Western Continent.
At that time, whoever serves as the real talker and leader of Tianshi Mansion will definitely have the greatest credit.
This is actually not their fault. The main reason is that the Tianshi Mansion has had seven or eight generations of Tianshis in the past hundred years or so.
Those heavenly masters in front were not so utilitarian. Each generation of them had a long-term vision and knew that the stability protected by earth veins and earth energy would not last long. It was ultimately a dead end, so the dead end must be broken.
But every previous generation of Celestial Masters fell due to this incident, and they continued one after another, hoping to open up a new path for the Celestial Master's Mansion in the Eastern Continent.
Just like the father of the current Great Heavenly Master Zhang Huan, he was killed by the Black Rakshasa when he was patrolling the border of the formation and wanted to enter the Western Continent to see if there was a way to break the deadlock.
Therefore, in the eyes of this generation of heavenly masters, the efforts of the heavenly masters of their ancestors could not break the deadlock from the outside, but instead ruined themselves.
Moreover, due to the frequent deaths of Heavenly Masters and the frequent deaths of disciples of the Heavenly Master Mansion, there are not many elixirs left by the four great Heavenly Masters.
Liu Zhaoye and the others had counted that the elixirs left by the four ancestors could only train one more generation of heavenly masters for the Tianshi Mansion at most, and then they would be completely exhausted.
Therefore, ten years ago, the three Futian Masters gave up the method of breaking the deadlock from the outside, but sought to develop from the inside, and then broke the deadlock from the inside, and then actively contacted the four ancestors of the upper world, If the four heavenly ancestors could
If you come to the Haolan Realm again, all problems will be solved.
The last person in the Tianshi Mansion who insisted on seeking a breakthrough from the outside was the former Great Tianshi who was killed by the Black Rakshasa two years ago.
After the death of the previous Great Heavenly Master, the power fell into the hands of the four Assistant Heavenly Masters, and the strategy of the entire Heavenly Master's Mansion also shifted from external to internal, completely shrinking.
The first consequence of changing the strategy from external to internal is the struggle for power and profit.
Fang Jian got off the flying boat and came to the mountain gate under the guidance of Sun Zhiren.
Liu Ji recovered from his brief daze, then quickly stood up straight, holding Zhang Huan with his right hand and standing there.
Because in the etiquette arranged by Liu Zhaoye to welcome Fang Jian, Fang Jian had to meet the Great Heavenly Master first.
The three Assistant Heavenly Masters headed by Liu Zhaoye quickly came forward and bowed to Fang Jianji: "The Assistant Heavenly Master Liu Zhaoye (Qu Han and Gao Jing) of Tianshi Mansion, pays homage to Master Hongqing.'
Fang Jian immediately bowed his head and returned the gift, then took out a jade talisman from his sleeve and handed it forward, saying: "This is the jade talisman ordered by the four ancestral masters Zhang, Xu, Sa and Ge. Please check it with the three auxiliary masters. "
Liu Zhaoye was very satisfied when he saw that Fang Jian was on the right path. He immediately stretched out his hands to take the jade talisman, and then the three of them verified the jade talisman using the Taoist methods passed down by the four ancestors.
Finally, the Jade Talisman of the Imperial Order passed the Taoist verification of three people. It was indeed the Jade Talisman of the Imperial Order passed down by the four ancestors.
"Master Hongqing, the inspection is correct." Liu Zhaoye handed the imperial jade talisman back to Fang Jian and said.
Fang Jian put away the imperial talisman and asked, "I wonder where the Great Heavenly Master is?"
When Fang Jian set out, Jiutian Xuannu told him that the Haolan Realm was not directly under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court. Although the Tianshi Mansion was the orthodoxy of the four heavenly masters, it was not enshrined by the Heavenly Court, so although it represented the Heavenly Court Power, but is not yet among the Immortal Officials in Heaven.
Therefore, the first thing Fang Jian had to do when he came to the Haolan Realm was to unite all the people and forces in the Tianshi Mansion to attack the heretic real demons and the God King Palace. Then it is very taboo for him to directly use his power as an immortal official to suppress others. Doing so will not only unite people who are not in the Tianshi Mansion, but may also alienate the Tianshi Mansion, making things a mess and creating a mess internally. It would be a big joke if relatives hate it but enemies hate it.
Therefore, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady had to specifically tell him that he should give the Great Heavenly Master enough respect when he arrived at the Heavenly Master's Mansion. At the same time, she also asked the Four Great Ancestor Heavenly Masters to pass down instructions to the Heavenly Master's Mansion and the Haolan Realm Heavenly Master's Mansion. , and assigned Fang Jian an internal position in the Tianshi Mansion.
Since he wanted to unite the personnel of the Tianshi Mansion and obey the instructions of the Nine Heavens Xuannv, it was natural for Fang Jian to meet with the Great Master of the Tianshi Mansion first.
