The capital of gods, the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
The main hall stands majestically on the ground, and the glazed tiles reflect the sun's rays, showing its majesty, just like a dragon head lying on the ground.
suddenly.
A hole as dark as ink appeared in the clear blue sky.
The sky seemed to be torn into pieces, and a colorful light fell first.
Seven colors of light, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, emerge alternately and completely envelope the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
This earth-shattering change immediately caused auras to rise from all directions in the imperial city, and powerful men appeared one after another.
Seven pillars of light in the city of Gods shot into the night, and at the top of the sky, the stars appeared during the day, and the Big Dipper shined brightly, casting down the power of the stars one after another.
The Innate Beidou Formation opened and immediately stood tall. The Nine Mountains protecting the divine capital also began to revive in the dead silence, and began to slowly connect with the Innate Beidou Formation. At this moment, there were countless divine patterns, which were constantly colliding and intertwined with each other.
The Zhongtian Ziwei Formation that protects the imperial city begins to merge with the Innate Beidou Formation, and will transform into the Nine-Five Supreme Formation.
But the next moment, the merging formation of gods and demons suddenly stopped.
The city of God fell into deathly silence at this moment, as if the pause button had been pressed, everything had stopped.
A majestic shadow descended, shining brightly on the world, and the heaven and earth were eclipsed.
When the majestic shadow descended in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the alternating colorful lights disappeared. The stopped city of the gods began to come alive again, and the Innate Beidou Formation and the Zhongtian Ziwei Formation continued to merge.
"This star really wants to retire"
Auras erupted, and a strong man rushed out, speeding towards the imperial city.
But the next moment, a ray of light exploded, and the remaining waves spread in all directions, sweeping across nine heavens and ten places in an instant, covering the thirty-sixth square of the divine capital.
At a speed visible to the naked eye, the Innate Beidou Formation and the Zhongtian Ziwei Formation, which should have continued to merge, are constantly collapsing, no, everything is starting to flow backwards.
In the blink of an eye, the seven rays of light rising into the sky from the Innate Beidou Formation began to slowly extinguish, and the power was regained. The Zhongtian Ziwei Formation returned to calm. Many strong men who had rushed to the edge of the imperial city, when they regained consciousness, also Have returned home again.
Everyone looked horrified, not knowing when it happened. They clearly remembered that they had arrived in the imperial city, but now they were at home.
The shadow of the stalwart is wearing a black narrow-sleeved crown gown, with golden auspicious clouds embroidered at the cuffs, a vermilion and white jade belt around the waist, and a white jade exquisite waist pendant. His face is as clear as a sculpture, and his angular face is extremely handsome.
He stood calmly outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony and did not keep him waiting. The next moment, the people in the Hall of Supreme Harmony had already walked out.
Whether they were cabinet ministers, Emperor Taizong, or Emperor Gaozong, they all knelt three times and kowtowed nine times.
Emperor Taizong knelt down in front, his forehead touching the cold jade ground. He didn't hear the sound and didn't dare to get up and raise his head. Although he felt aggrieved, he didn't dare to have any doubts.
Because the person who came was the Emperor Yan, the ancestor of the current Northern God Yan, the founding ancestor of the Xianyan Kingdom, an ancient innate god and demon.
This is a strong human race who is powerful among all races. It is said that he has the power of time. Emperor Taizong originally thought that there was something in it, but he did not expect that the legend still underestimated this giant of the human race.
The foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Xiantian Beidou Formation and the Zhongtian Ziwei Formation, were not even qualified to transform into the Nine-Five Supreme Formation in front of them, and they were knocked back to their original shape in a snap.
This kind of strength goes beyond Emperor Taizong's knowledge of innate gods and demons. The strength of every person who can be ranked among the giants of the human race is beyond imagination. Emperor Taizong really realized it today.
Emperor Yan's eyes were as bright as stars, and his whole body was surrounded by divine light. He looked down at the senior officials of the Great Zhou and said calmly: "The upper body of the Great Zhou is the heart of heaven, and the lower body is the human way."
"Thanks to my good luck, I have to reward you. I will give you a drawing of the star observatory, counting the 109 continents in the world."
In the interweaving of light, strands of light continued to connect, and a drawing began to appear out of thin air. It was completely solidified in the breath, and slowly fell from the air.
Emperor Yan's eyes were indifferent, and the colorful light fell from the sky. After falling suddenly, Emperor Yan had no trace.
Everything returned to calm in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, but no one stood up for a long time. After more than ten breaths of silence, Emperor Taizong stood up first and raised his hand to catch the falling drawings.
This drawing was made of special material and was filled with the aura of the Supreme. As soon as Emperor Taizong held it in his hand, he could immediately feel the surge of mana in his body, as if it was about to move, and a desire and greed arose, as if this thing was extremely important to him.
Not only Emperor Taizong, but also many ministers at this moment were greedily looking at the drawing of the observatory. They seemed to have lost their rationality in their hearts, and people were like wild beasts, leaving only their greedy nature.
Time passed bit by bit, and no one knew how long it had passed. Wang Shifan woke up first, looked at the drawing of the observatory with complicated eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "Taoyuan."
"This is definitely the breath of Taoyuan."
"The star observatory is forged from the source of truth. It is a magic weapon from the very beginning."
"Can."
Even though Wang Shifan was standing on the side of Taizong and some distance away, he could still clearly see the content on the drawings of the observatory. After reading them all, his eyes shrank, his eyes were about to burst, and he said in disbelief: "Ten years to build success?"
"If we all use middle-grade warriors and assist high-grade warriors, we can do it."
"But most people want to be ordinary people. They need to build one hundred and nine floors, as many as one hundred and nine continents in the world. Let alone ten years. Even if it is doubled, it will not be possible in twenty years."
Wang Shifan's voice became smaller and smaller, and when he said the last sentence, he was already slumped on the ground, because Wang Shifan had already thought that it was impossible to do it normally, but what if it was abnormal?
If 10,000 people are not enough, then there will be 100,000 people. If 100,000 people are not enough, then there will be one million people.
The world of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been stable for more than two hundred years. The population shortage caused by the great chaos in the world in the past has long been recovered. The population is greater than that of the previous dynasty, and the national power of the Great Zhou Dynasty far exceeds that of the Great Shang. The most indispensable thing in the world now is people.
Wang Shifan wanted to speak out to veto this matter, but when the words came to his lips, he could not say them out, because this was not something he could refuse absolutely, and no one could refuse it, because it came from the will of gods and demons.
And it wasn't Emperor Yan alone, it was all the gods and demons who were able to issue orders to Great Zhou.
If you dare to disobey today, then the Great Zhou will disappear tomorrow, and the remaining substitutes will continue to build the star observatory.
The Great Zhou Dynasty has been exhausted.
These six words say everything.
After the construction of the star observatory began, it was bound to arouse public anger. After the anger of the sky and the resentment of the people, wars broke out in various places, and bandits and rebels were everywhere. This shook the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
There is no such thing as a period of time, only these short ten years.
Wang Shifan was dumbfounded on the spot. Xu Changqing also looked at the drawings of the star observatory. He suppressed the horror in his heart and bowed to Taizong and Gaozong and said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty."
"A gift from heaven."
"As long as Da Zhou succeeds in building a star observatory, it will be a legacy for eternity."
"The Great Zhou will last for ten thousand years, ten thousand years, and ten thousand years."
Xu Changqing immediately took off his official hat himself, then knelt down in the room, raised his official hat solemnly with both hands, and said in a deep voice: "I am old and frail, and have low energy. I can no longer assist Your Majesty in managing the government."
"I beg you to resign."
"Your Majesty, please allow me to retire and return to my hometown to take care of myself."
Taizong and Gaozong looked at each other, and they stepped forward together, reaching out to help Xu Changqing up, one on the left and the other on the right, and said in unison: "No."
"Xu Qing is in power, everything is going smoothly, and everything is peaceful. Now we are asking Xu Qing to contribute to the construction of the star observatory. Is Xu Qing going to hang up his seal and leave? Is it against God's will?"
Xu Changqing's face was gloomy and uncertain, and he didn't speak for a long time. After more than ten breaths, he finally uttered a few words with difficulty: "I don't dare."
Emperor Gaozong looked around and finally spoke: "This is not the place for conversation. Go back to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to discuss matters."
The group of people walked back to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. After everyone sat down, they did not speak for a long time. The observatory was shocking. Being able to be descended by an innate god and demon was absolutely unchangeable. It was a powder keg that could not be dealt with. If it is good, it will explode, directly blowing Da Zhou to pieces.
Everyone in the world knows that the Great Zhou Dynasty will not last long, but most people estimate that during the Jiazi Rebellion, which was also decades later, some people were very concerned and had begun to prepare. There must be signs before the Jiazi Rebellion broke out.
For example, Cao Longji, the greedy wolf who represents the Three Stars of Killing the Wolf, has a short lifespan. In these ten or at most twenty years, a rebellion will be launched and the world will be chaotic. When the Jiazi Rebellion occurs, the world will definitely The flames of war are everywhere.
But who could have imagined that the Great Zhou Dynasty was already over before the day when Cao Longji launched a rebellion.
The faces of all the cabinet ministers were not good, and they all looked gloomy, but Emperor Taizong and Emperor Gaozong were completely opposite. Although they were expressionless, their eyes could not hide the joy, because this drawing of the observatory was very important to them. For the world, it was a disaster, but for the two of them, it was an opportunity.
The construction of the star observatory in the Great Zhou Dynasty was at the expense of the national fortune of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The consumption was so serious that the gods and demons did not force the oppression, but used the advantage to induce it. The drawings of the star observatory contain the source of truth. If the star observatory is built successfully, this will It is definitely an important wonder at the level of divine weapons.
This is the best stage for holding rituals between gods and demons. It is many times better than the Temple of Heaven built by Zhou Yi.
The fact that no gods or demons appeared in the Great Zhou Dynasty does not mean that the True Dragon Great Destiny is completely hopeless. Half of the True Dragon Great Destiny has been completed. Originally, only Emperor Taizong was eligible to continue. Because Emperor Taizong experienced the founding of the country, a large part of the Great Zhou world was It was Emperor Taizong who shot him down with a knife and a gun.
Emperor Taizong is the legitimate son of Emperor Taizu. They are connected by blood and have the same origin. The hope of inheriting the broken True Dragon destiny is very high, and it is possible to complete the True Dragon destiny in the end.
But if Taizong has this relationship, Gaozong cannot. Gaozong has not experienced the founding of the country. This true dragon destiny is theoretically possible, but the hope is very slim. But with the star observatory, Gaozong's hopes have greatly increased.
This will increase the success rate of the ritual of gods and demons, and then continue the great destiny of the true dragon.
I don’t know whose handwriting this was, but it hit the soft spot in the hearts of Emperor Taizong and Emperor Gaozong. The moment they saw the drawings of the observatory, they had the idea in their hearts that they must make it a success, even for stargazing. Even if the construction of Taiwan is ten times more difficult, they will have to complete it at all costs.
As long as the Great Zhou Dynasty is immortal, they can continue the True Dragon's Great Destiny and become gods and demons when the time comes. As for the subsequent collapse of the Great Zhou, this is not a bad thing. The True Dragon's Great Destiny needs to escape the catastrophe before it can be completely completed.
And this is the process of escaping from tribulation. They don't need to suffer for five hundred years like other True Dragon Destiny people, and they can start escaping from tribulation directly. This is not necessarily a bad thing, it may be a good thing.
Moreover, this time the two dynasties have accumulated almost a thousand years of experience, and with the help of the True Dragon's Destiny, they are definitely not ordinary gods and demons. Their hope of escaping the disaster is extremely high.
If this method wasn't a trick, it would be better to open up a new dynasty and be able to fully inherit the True Dragon's destiny. They definitely think that they have innate gods and demons.
The two majesties, who were cold-natured, were happy, but the ministers all had sad faces, especially Xu Changqing, who was about to cry.
Bitter.
There is no one in the world who is more miserable than him.
Xu Changqing can also see the thoughts of the two majesties and knows what benefits it can bring to them, and it will also benefit the new dynasty.
This observatory will become a wonder of gods and demons. It is willing to pay for it. It contains the source of truth, deduced by many gods and demons. If it is completely cast, it will definitely start at the level of a divine weapon.
The foundation of the new dynasty will be stronger. With this ritual of gods and demons, the Taizu of the new dynasty may really be able to prove that he is the innate god and demon.
But does this have anything to do with him?
Completely giving up a lifetime of good reputation in exchange for a wonder of gods and demons, but he can't enjoy the blessings. It will bring infamy to future generations. The Xu family is also a big family in the south of the Yangtze River and a famous family in the world. After this incident, I am afraid that About to lose.
Xu Changqing looked at Wang Shifan. His great master Shang could prosper his family by one person. Even if he died, his reputation would last for thousands of years, and gods and demons would take the initiative to accept him as his disciples.
The Grand Master of the Shang Dynasty bought generations of wealth and honor for his descendants by himself. Wang Shifan had never entered the court as an official, but he could directly enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister once he was summoned.
Needless to say how many benefits one can enjoy from a clear reputation, there is no need to say much about a bad reputation.
Xu Changqing's eyes turned cold. Now it is impossible to resign and return home. These two majesties want to be the scapegoat. Although they are shameless, they still know how to cover up.
Especially when the new emperor has not yet emerged and he is the first assistant to take charge of the government, he is the natural one to take the blame.
As long as you take the initiative to release the news and expand public opinion, if the world doesn't scold you, who will you scold?
Cao Shaoyang walked slowly and arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony. After bowing respectfully, he spoke: "His Royal Highness, Prince Chen, went to Zhezi and left in a hurry."
Xu Changqing reached out and grabbed the book and read it. He didn't pay much attention at first, but after reading it, he felt very happy. However, he didn't show any signs of it on the surface. He directly cursed and said: "If you make a small contribution, you will ask for a reward."
"Is the imperial court this kind of person who treats meritorious ministers badly?"
"Don't talk about appointing four people. Even if you recommend seven people."
"It seems reasonable to me."
"And the reward is small."
"It's time to come back and be the chief assistant."

In the past two days, I have developed the habit of using Tik Tok. When I looked at the time today, it was already afternoon. I usually exercise, but today I didn’t do any exercise. The author was so frightened that he quickly uninstalled it. It was a waste of time.
