There was a small word under the merit stele. Tao Zhenren looked at it and saw that it was his name - Tao Huayang!
There is also a strange circle next to it, 0!
Tao Zhenren asked curiously: "Senior San Kuang, what does this circle mean?"
He Ping'an looked embarrassed, and on a sudden impulse, he actually wrote an Arabic numeral...
He pretended to be incomprehensible: "This circle is called zero, which represents infinite perfection."
"It also means starting from scratch!"
Then he roughly explained that this merit monument is a member of the world of human books. He can only practice in this world of human books for twenty days every month. There are still ten days left when he needs to carry out the task of slaying demons. to gain merit.
The red line in the human book will form a certain value based on the size of the merit, automatically record all this, and gather it on the merit monument.
He is only the first member of the world of human books. There will be many dead souls who cannot enter reincarnation later and will enter the world of human books.
This merit monument can be regarded as a "performance" consideration.
If the "performance" is at the bottom, He Ping'an will be classified as failing the "assessment". If he is at the bottom three times in a row, he will be directly reincarnated...
Tao Zhenren nodded as if he understood, and then asked: "So, is there any reward for being the first in the Merit Monument?"
He Ping'an thought for a moment and said slowly: "You can become the city lord of the human book city and take charge of the affairs of the human book world."
"In the future, I can personally take action and consecrate the gods!"
Regarding this matter, He Ping'an had some considerations in mind. In the future, there will definitely be many ghost cultivators in the book world, and he does not have so much time to manage, so he must decentralize power.
The talisman water technique he learned before can be used to confer minor gods from the first to the ninth level, but the transcendent realm righteous gods are not included in this list.
However, he remembered that among the thirty-six laws of Tiangang, there was also a Six-Armored Sect, which also included the way of talismans.
He Ping'an estimated that if he obtained the Talisman Way, he should be able to confer the divine way of transcendence.
"Senior, can you enthrone a god?"
Tao Zhenren was surprised. You must know that once you have a divine position, as long as the incense continues, your life will be endless.
And isn't the immortality he is pursuing so hard just for this day?
Thinking of this, Tao Zhenren's face showed a hint of ecstasy. His choice was simply wrong. If he were reincarnated, how could he have such an opportunity.
"Oh, by the way, now that you have entered here, the Panlong Jade Pendant is of no use, so I will take it away."
He Pingan said lightly that the Panlong Jade Pendant can resist the demonic energy of the inner demon master, and it has some skills. He Pingan is going to take it back and study it.
"Senior, feel free to take it."
Tao Zhenren quickly said that with this book world now, the Panlong Jade Pendant was as discarded as worn shoes to him.
With a thought, he unlocked the identity traces of the Panlong Jade Pendant.
"Okay, that's enough for now. You can practice peacefully here. After twenty days, teach me and go out to complete your merits!"
He Ping'an said slowly, and then his mind returned from the world of human books to the original body.
Seeing He Ping'an leaving, Tao Zhenren turned his eyes and looked at the city in the distance, and suddenly turned into a breeze and rushed towards it.
There will be many ghost cultivators coming in the future, so I have to occupy the largest house first...
In the alchemy room, He Ping'an's body trembled slightly. After his consciousness returned to his physical body, he quickly cleaned up all the traces of the fighting method and the two hidden monitoring formations to make sure that nothing was missing before continuing to refine the alchemy.
.....
Wanshou Palace is filled with spiritual mist and the fragrance of elixir is assailed.
Emperor Jiaming sat cross-legged on the futon, but his mind was restless and he could not enter meditation.
"Your Majesty, something bad is happening!"
At this moment, Huang Daban's horrified voice sounded outside the door.
"What's up?"
Emperor Jiaming asked in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, Master Shao is gone!"
"What?"
Even though Emperor Jiaming was very good at cultivating Qi and could not express his emotions or anger, he stood up in shock at this time.
"The guards guarding the Immortal Soul Palace just now reported that Shao Zhen's life lamp was extinguished, and Tao Zhen's life lamp was also flickering and might go out at any time."
Emperor Jiaming's face was ashen and frightening. The life and death of these two people was not important to him. They were just tools for making alchemy.
At his current point, he has long since lost those ridiculous feelings, and only has the purest goal left, to break through the realm of transcendence.
But the Nine Revolutions and Longevity Furnace is closely related to these two people. If these two people are kidnapped, it will affect the speed of collecting the corpses of the people who tested the medicine.
This was something he couldn't stand.
He turned around and turned into a strong wind and appeared in the Immortal Soul Palace.
The Immortal Soul Hall is the hall where the life lamps of all Daxuan's upper third-level monks and royal family members are placed.
The lights inside were bright, with thousands of copper lamps burning and shining freely.
Emperor Jiaming looked around, and sure enough, in the Immortal Soul Hall, the bronze lamp representing Master Shao had been completely extinguished.
Tao Zhenren's life lamp was also swaying from side to side at this time, and it looked like it was about to go out.
In Emperor Jiaming's view, this meant that Tao Zhenren was seriously injured at this time.
"Your Majesty!"
Behind him, Huang Daban followed.
Master Tao and Master Shao were both first-grade monks, but one was dead and the other injured. No news has been released until now, and obviously no one else knows yet.
"What are those losers of the Dragon Guard doing?"
Emperor Jiaming seemed to have sparks in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, the Dragon Guards have been searching for the whereabouts of the Dragon-riding Martial Saint these past few days, but they haven't found him yet."
Reported by Huang Daban.
In the main hall, Emperor Jiaming said nothing, and the silence was terrifying.
Huang Daban knelt on the ground, big beads of sweat falling from his forehead. Although he was a first-grade monk, he could not withstand the waves of pressure coming from Emperor Jiaming.
"Inform King Tang of the Palace of Eternal Life, no matter what method he uses, to find an alchemist who can take charge of the Alchemy Department."
After a long time, the anger on Emperor Jiaming's face subsided, and he returned to his previous calmness: "Summon the Protector Dragon Guard Master Mingyu, and use the fastest speed to find out the cause of Master Shao's death."
"Bring Master Tao back to me safely!"
"Yes, slave, go right away."
Huang Daban took the order and left.
After watching Huang Daban leave, Emperor Jiaming turned to look at the tallest and thickest copper lamp in the center of the Immortal Soul Hall.
I saw the red flames flashing on the copper lamp, but it was somewhat lacking in stamina.
Emperor Jiaming walked forward, took the bronze lamp in his hand, and gently touched it: "Old Ancestor, why were you unwilling to give me that fairy sword back then?"
"If that fairy sword were in my hands, I could wipe out the evil spirits in this world..."
...
A quarter of an hour later...
Before He Ping'an could reach his next shift, he heard the sound of movement outside the alchemy room from time to time.
With his spiritual consciousness, he discovered that all the monks from the Supervision Department were out in force, walking in and out of the Hall of Eternal Life. The alchemy room of the two real men was surrounded by more than ten upper-level third-grade monks.
The commander, Zhao Zhong, appeared outside the alchemy room of the two real men, with a livid look on his elegant face.
In the Hall of Eternal Life where he was, a real person fell and another real person died, but he didn't know it. This showed that the person who took action was far more powerful than a first-level monk.
Thinking of this, Zhao Zhong's heart trembled.
After two hundred years of silence, is a transcendent monk finally going to take action against Daxuan?
What he didn't know was that the inner demon Taoist Master had always been hidden beside him.
If it hadn't been for He Ping'an, Daxuan would have been defeated once Emperor Jiaming's poison took effect within three years at most.
In the alchemy room, He Ping'an was convinced that the abnormality of the two real people had been discovered by Emperor Jiaming.
But he still sat quietly in the alchemy room, ignoring what was going on outside the window, and continued to refine the elixir.
Occasionally, one or two pills that had just been formed but had not yet been successfully refined would automatically jump into his mouth, laying a solid foundation for his small goal of ten thousand years of Taoism.
